How to play Druid / Druid Guide : Dark and Darker 

(First, little missed tip. Your Panther bleed dmg is modified by headshots.) I had a funny game centered around caster druid. The Treant can actually be stupidly tanky. Summon the Treant, hit it with Natures Touch then cast Dreamfire, Root and Tree of Life. The Treant will body people. Main problem is burning through your spells too fast but you still have your shape shifts to escape or finish. After playing more with shapeshift and getting better at it, I would say that its more reliable to be a shapeshifter focus like this guide here, but still its pretty funny to buff the tree. Main problem is you spend spells on the Tree and it could end up wasted if you blow your wad too early. You really need to bait and root and use Bear to tank dmg if your tree has an opportunity to put dmg on target.

my goodness... i didnt realise having the transform wheel open BEFORE you try to jump was the way to do it. thank you, i instantly got it after this vid.

would love to see a vid where u start grey and build up a kit to show how to prio things, and what grey gear u start with, and just in general a solo druid build /pvp/pve gameplay

i'm a beginner, i started yesterday but i learned so much with your video tbh, appreciate mate thank's for job +1 sub !

Another banger as per always Kaz 🙏 you went absolutely flyinggggg on those panther jumps!!!

damn i spent a long time seeing if the stair jump was possible and i figured it wasnt, cheers king

this video really makes me want to play druid bro you make it look so fun

Great video man 👍

Good explanation, right to the point 💪

subbed nice informative video

First time even looking at Druid gameplay and holy shit bro fighter sprint is like a crayon compared to the Picasso masterpiece that is druid movement tech this is just ridiculous.

Fixed an issue where Druid’s Dreamfire damage did not scale properly. Fixed an issue where standing on the Druid's Entangling Vines would not cause the player to be bound again even if the immune status was removed.

Thanks dude, really informative, can't bring myself to spend 30 bucks for the legendary status so i deleted my ranger 70 fame for a druid, and i learned so mucg from your video 🎉❤

nicely done

You forget one big factor why Nature's touch is a game changer: "Magic Healing". You'll figure it out.

Hi ! u killed me like 4 times right now in trios, and now u play druid like me, im happy to see a better player than me playing my class and teach some good advices ! i hope we meet again soon and have a good match against to learn more ! :D great vid mate

Tip with the chicken, it can actually triple jump, not just double. Tip with the bear, use the right click attack to help dodge, it changes your hotbox from being long to tall, which helps with getting your head out of the way to avoid melee attacks

For tip for the rat it is important to do transforming before jumping and be in mid air for your jump to work, so you can jump a bit late you just need to be midair

Druid is amazing I don't how good he is but it really funny to play with all of your opportunities. Waiting for monk as a next class

Great video, thanks mate, gonna try the Rat trick next time i get on.

Just noticed the drum and bass tags hahaha that’s so funny

tree of life is good if you need a reset seems to give a bigger heal if you sit in it.

10/10 on Breaking up the video

thanks so much for the video, but can we now see some solo druid action, we only see either duo's or trio's. I'd looove to see how you play as a solo druid

Great vid! Hope the druid get more damage distance spells like insects or something like that

You said barkskin spell is useless, but I believe it is meant to be paired with bear form. Barkskin + Thorn coat + Bear and you become the party tank! I also think the rat ability may be meant for strength druid builds where you are not starting out at max speed.

Honestly i'm just happy to be a healer/rat with this class :3

i think the way the healing/scaling works is by design which makes a little sense cause cleric is the healer class

They also should have the cooldowns shared between the transformations u should not be able to do the rush abilities then auto use fly there should be full cooldown on one

how do stats like physical power on weapons work with druid shapeshift? would stats from a secondary weapon also be in effect while shapeshifted or if the primary weapon is equipped?

Been gaming a lot on druid and have been enjoying getting about 30 strength 30 agility and as much hp as possible it makes bear and panther very viable, kit im running right now panther bite is hitting 75 to the chest and right click on bear is hitting for 150 something to the head

i will tryy it

the bear form I have found is so slow and has so bad range the extra health isn't even worth it. It is really only useful if they're cornered and the issue then arises that you might not have enough space to even bear form at all.. And by the time you find that out he's closed the range or has run away. The panther is much more useful to chase people down and swipe/bite them a few times then run away, but sometimes people are fast to hit you and you're SO SQUISHY it's crazy I've had alot of fun playing druid and it's definitely one of the best solo classes but it's also decent in a team because you can thorn wall opponents out or in with your team and you can sneak past the enemy or flank them using mouse and then close the distance extremely fast on their backliners.. But that tactic relies on the rest of your team being able to temporarily hold their own against a trio.. But I feel like druid is just sort of a all-around guy. heals are somewhat mid (they're HoTs and take a long time to cast) at least while in the middle of a fight since they require you to be close when casting restore and mending grove is static, and the melee is also mid since you're quite squishy. The animal forms are GOATED for chasing people down and for kiting etc, but they generally don't even hold up in a 1v1 fight if the other person is geared and stays calm It's not really that META in HR, at least I haven't seen that many, but I think it's just a question of time when people figure out how to play them

Wait, the glowing circle is because of my PERK? I switched from the shape shift armour perk to using the one for extra Vigor and was wondering where that circle came from. Guess I'm swapping back.

can you explain why you build more agi when you dont even really use panthr all that much? I thought the same at first but then I realized you're almost never using panther to fight unless youre just chasing someone down. You probably do more dps with the spear anyways

Main healer in every game i play. So what you are telling me is that the druid specs are limited right now and there is no good scalling for healing? I wanted to try a 10 skill druid as main support even thos it might be a stupid idea but you crashed my dream haha. Great video, good informations

Druid is over powered in crypts

I have been playing solo v trios on druid for a bit now, maybe I should make a guide, my build is a little different.

i hope they dont get rid of the rat jumping through doors

Do not hide inside dead bodies. They are client side and its very often when on enemy POV u are standing on open space. But mimics is fine, if i remember this right.

Has anyone tested if resourcefulness scales duration of durid heals..

Hey, how do you know wich equipment to keep as a druid ? And how to choose the weapon you use ?

I cant get the rat door trick to save my life

The chicken has a triple jump

When the spell is greyed out like that what does it mean?

The auras visually turn off when standing still btw

The moment druid skills scales on magic healing fk potion we bringing 6 campfires 😂

Considering magic healing not scaling on magic healing bonuses. I think its a bug

laced turnshoe is primary stat agi

26:50 kinda sus tho xD

is still working the rat jump through the door?

I thought the you only glow when you are healing

i use dream fire to hit ppl through doors and when they try to run

You've been splitting teams with hyrda already so of course you're gonna go nuts on druid lol

buddy started this video with "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Rat form > All other shapeshift forms

How you transform so quick? When i play druid it takes years 😢 (sorry my english)

Is the Druid's healing amount fixed? because it only shows 15 not like 15 (1.0) (nature touch)

What base gear should i bring in as a druid though im new

literally all i do is play a rat and ask for cheese.

how do you even start to play druid you can't kill any pve ennemies except running away as a rat and opening crates until you get a good melee weapon ?

27:51 what did e say? O_O

Did they already patch out the rat door jumping? Seems like I spawn on the floor immediately after switching to rat

im gonna sound super noob xD but what to do against normal mobs? :i only lvl 6 :3 but! super helpfull vid :p

My friend is a tree.

I just got into this game...did not realize how in depth it can get. Regardless I am really trying to get into druid. Still learning the basics. Some of this reminds me of when I did arenas in WoW. Awesome video though.

Damn Druid is so OP, literally no counter to bear or panther...

Me like, Me will watch more, Me say bye bye now (BOM BOM

Do you need to jump + ctrl to do rat jump?

my druid is level 40 and i never once tried shapeshifting in the air im actually r worded

you dont have to press space to jump through a door as a rat?

16:25

post or pre nerf?

In solo play druid is a better rouge fun fact dream fire dosent deal friendly fire

The mag healing dosent scale yet ceremonial staff is base mag heal ????? Whatttttttttt? This class silly

can u open doors and portal as a rat? cuz im out the n lolol

lol "builds" .. i wish they existed for me.. i would need to get out in order to build anything... and yeah that basically never happens.

Fuck all YT developers for trying to harass us with intrusive ads at all costs

druids rat transformation needs nerfed
