Thoughts on my fc bear

[koeraokse]

Hello, I could use some advice from you druid experts

well I am going to make a fireclaw bear and these are the skills I am planning to use:

lyca 20
bear 20
fc 20
oak 1
firestorm 20
moulten 20

and my eq:
helm: jalal
weapon: pb (6xshael) but what about giant tresher 6xshael for 5 range?
shield: ss
belt: verdungo
glov: bloods or smth
boots: gores
rings: raven/angelic
ammy: angelic
armor: ?? well I dont have many runes left atm, so what armor would u suggest, lets say I have about 3 puls and um (if I wont socket it into jalal)

thanks

Only 1 point in lyca and max another synergie instead.

Don't forget the 9 Shapie gc's. As for armour, I would suggest Coh, or Valor if you can't afford that.

[koeraokse]

oh yes, I forgot to write the skillers, but if I cant afford coh and then u suggest valor, this means +2skills > resistances?

"but what about giant tresher 6xshael for 5 range?"

Yup u should get one on switch or have in stash, its really usefull when u need long range against sorc and such, or towncamp someone that nked your low lvl char :)

Im not sure about the skills, but u dont need to have 20 points in werebear i think but in not sure, but I have it like this.

20 firestorm
20 molten boulder
20 fissure
20 fireclaw
11 in lycan for more life (i keep putting in this one once i get higher lvl)

1point in oak
1point in raven
1point in spirit wolfs (I wonder if my next char shall have them, i rarly use them since they die so fast and takes so long time to summon without fastercast rate)
1point on heart of wolverine (this was a bad misstake, pointless)
1point in werebear
1point in werewolf
1point in feral rage
1point in maul
1point in shockwave (also kinda waste of skill)

My FC druid is lvl 90 but I am gonna do a new of him but putting skills in volcano as well for more dmg. but im not sure:)

aint gores boots more for a melee char?, since u will do like 12k firedmg with 9 skillers and 120 normal dmg from weapon,the crushing blow wont really be effective, but I could be wrong. U could try check out sandstorm treck or like ik boots or Aldurs.

but what gives more life in the end, maxing lyca or maxing bear?

and if I will max more synergys, maybe I should max the armageddon, cuz I can use it in werebear form

I dont think armageddon is good have, since it wont increase your fireclaw dmg and u will have to spend alot of points on the preskills to get armageddon which u ether could put somewere else to get more life or damage. try check out the two fireclaw bear guides ont his forum it will help u alot with gear/skills:)

Im not sure about which one who gives more life werebear skill/lycan since i dont have any editor i could test in signel player mode.

Werebear adds 70% life all skill lvls 1-40+ doesn't matter, whereas Lycanthropy adds 5% per skill point, so if you want more life max Lycanthropy.
