    Flaming Rabies Dueling Technique

    I built a flaming rabies druid, but I can't seem to get down how to use it correctly. I'm lvl 73 so I probably should lvl up more, but I still don't see that having much of an effect. How do you use a flaming rabies druid successfully?

    From what I've read on the build I think the basic idea is to infect them with rabies then switch over to fire claws to help the psn along. . .I could be completely wrong. But that's what I think of when I think of that build.

    you are not gonna be owning tele casters with that char anyway. but the basic idea is get first hit with rabies in wolf form then transform into bear and fc them when their life is low. bascially a lot of dodging attacks moving in zig zags then suddenly charge at ur enemy and name lock them, and keep resummoning ur meat walls and spirits and ravens.

    The few fire claw druids ive seen have pretty much killed everyone with one hit.....if they connect. Pretty much the same with rabies druids too. They are already really strong by themselves...to me it wouldnt make sense to use both since you can 1 hit kill with fc and 1 hit kill (over 2 secs) with rabies.

    Im assuming fire absorb works against fire claws, right? If i made a druid based on those skills, that would be the time to use rabies otherwise id stick to fire claws for everyone else.

    I have a fc bear that does 13k damage and some good pallys can go toe to toe with him and beat him. It really depends on who gets the first hit and if the pally casts life tap. The reason for the rabies/fc is that you can deal more damage with a little more hassle. You can get the rabies up to 20k psn damage easily and have a fc dam of around 5-7k pretty easily also. With those combinded, you should have a pretty good build. The only problem I have is I'm not good at using it.

    I've also recently made my first 1.10 PvP build and it's a Flaming Rabies, after Kaz's guide.

    I'm also only 73, just so I could use Stormshield because I was eager to duel whoever. Unless you're in non-Clan-Honor where there isn't teleport, it's pretty dog-gone hard to get any kind of caster like a bone necromancer or an frozen orb sorceress.

    It's hard to switch to bear once you've rabies'd your opponent in wolf form. Half the time I stick in wolf form and try to win it that way. But it's great fun having a 4fps fire claw attack, because the bear just wails on some people. Getting hit too much is also causing me some problems; I've got about 74% block, but I might put a few more points into dexterity to make sure I have 75% no matter what.

    I was using a wiz/lidless switch and teleing on them transforming and attacking, it worked suprisingly well but anyone with pretty good reflexs still killed. It's ment for CH so no tele unless your a sorc. I guess all I can suggest is massive r/w?
