TIERLIST: tinyurl.com/7mxcwud9 Twitch: / aceofspadeshots Updated Druid tier list for the best builds. Mid season Patch notes Season 4 Diablo 4 #Diablo #Diablo4 #DiabloGuide #Druid #tierlist #Blizzard #Season4
I'm glad to hear it. I stopped pushing and am opting for speed farming for alts but the glass cannon(Wolf Shear) version is by far my favorite of the collection. It is quite a bit more engaged with the buff timer management, and I rarely find myself getting bored while playing it. The only question I have is, is slotting Unsatiated in for Rapid when using a staff and at or near cap the move to make? I saw Lemona had done that on their planner and in a few videos. I'd imagine it pumps up the dmg a bit without losing anything in atk spd.
I have a question for you. I was just looking over your Stormslide and Tornado builds and variants on Moba and I am wondering why in so many you choose to use Shepherds but then do not use Stampede which is 60%(2h) and 45%(ammy) flat, unconditional damage that doesn't require Fortify or any type of CC/Vuln which to me would seem more valuable. I have been following your stuff for a while and know you know your stuff so I am very interested to know this, thanks for all the effort you've put into the Druid class! EDIT: One more question if you don't mind! I have been looking at maybe doing Storm Slide but I have some questions. First off why do you put 5 tanks in LS but not take any of the upgrades because it seems like the chance to Immobilize synergizes well with the build. Second, why no ranks in Landslide? Lastly, in the Uber version you use Subterranean but you don't in the budget version; reason?
@@tasandmnm69my guess for your last question about subterranean is that the Uber version probably has enough spirit regen and/or resource cost reduction to run Packleader instead of Energize. Packleader being used to reset poison creep (with decent crit chance/lucky hit, it’ll reset itself with subterranean
@@tasandmnm69 for stormslide, stampede essentially only gives you 1 additional companion is another 15X(if sheperds is in ammy) 20x (if sheperds is on 2hnd) retaliation gives more multiplier aswell as subterranean, not mention subterranean also cast landslides which also has a chance to summon lightning bolts. having 2hnd weapon on stormslide limits you on using 2 aspects instead of 1 (stormslide at min-max requires you so many ubers its nearly impossible to fit all aspects if not done correctly)
In your Werewolf Tornado build on Mobalytics, there's somehow an extra point on your Paragon board that doesn't exist in actual D4 so I have to remove one of the max life nodes to hit the last legendary node. Just a heads up.
Cleared pit 110 on Slide Storm last night where I was having trouble with even clearing a 103 before. Still farming for Tyrael's so hopefully get to see how far I can push with it soon.
could u look into free cast skills on druid not getting any extra scaling? For instance when i get a free cast of earth spike via natures fury i don't get scaling from thunder struck or adaptability i actually do more damage self casting than triggering
Is airidahs inexorable will damage scare properly? I used to use it on stormclaw and tried it this season but even with 1774x damage I don't see any huge dmg change
Boulder with overpower every 12 seconds or 10 kills should work well. Stopped at around pit 89 last time I tried it, so now it definetly does pit 100+, but still need to try how far mine can go. It does need shepherds and a basic skill though, that is the trick. The version without shepherds lacks damage and playing without basic makes resource management impossible. Going wind shear boulder on the other hand helps the build a lot (vulnerable, mov speed, resources). Storm slider is an awesome build I am loving it. Good to see it at S tier. About lightning storm it does put up a good fight for A tier. It is much easier to manage resource with LS. I really enjoy the werewolf version with dire wolf, easy to setup, easy to play, cheap and fun. Before the patch it was speed farming pit 110 (videos in youtube available) and was one the fastest druid builds to farm pit 99. Now it can probably do pit 120+. Worth taking a look But slidestorm is too fun. Will keep it. Thanks!
I had a question about your build can i run ring of starless skies here i tested it and seems to be pretty crazy and your spirit never drops remains full just suffer attack speed but +50% dmg
I'm currently making a mix of Shred + Rabies (trying to do a poison Druid). I'm leveling, doing NM tier 100 with druid lvl 93 with this build, with some difficulties.
Hey, after following your Stormslide build, I realized that I am reaching max resistance without allocating stats to Ancestral Fortitude. Where would be the best place to allocate 3 skill points?
just want to say thanks for all your effort, with druid not being in the best place relative to other classes your guides helping us to maximize what we have are more valuable than ever
With the changes to starless skies ring, would you consider it for the Slide Storm build? I've found I can drop all spirit gen except for boots and I'm able to spam on bosses without trouble. 50%x damage and spirit reduction is hard to pass up
I am not sure if I am right but doesn't stormslide already use earthbreaker? Using starless also will cost you an aspect in an already aspect starved build.
I'm running Wind Daddy but I really wanna try SlideStorm I just got the Harlequin Crest but I don't have Tyraels Might. What can I sub out while I'm grinding for that piece?
Wish stormclaw would be even with the strenght of like bash bard, i really enjoyed it and playing around with small changes but it feels so limited to what you can archieve
Hello. I've heard a new fun? BD with Debilitating Roar and Unique Fleshrender, and Bold Chieftain's Aspect. I don't know if it's useful or not, may you take a test?
I saw that on Reddit. Looks quirky and fun but Holy Bolts was doing a lot of the heavy lifting in the example video. It is no longer useful in that manner so I'd bet that build lost quite a bit of power. The problem is that the scaling on Fleshrender just isn't enough. Even if you stack Willpower, you will still see sub par damage.
i mean. i left druid for barb a while back and i main druid but it was way too weak. and i only got it to lvl 82 and i had 3 druid classes 1 for every friend at different parts of the game. and i went barb and got it 100... just too much fun with thorns. lol and idk why but druid pulverize always really slow moving it felt like my friends barb was across the map with the dungeon done and i was just like thats cool.
Thanks for updates. Stormslide is fun but still so much weaker then even whirlwind barb:/ Think they should give us major keystone passive that buffs poison same as Gushing wounds for barbs. Could also consolidate Ursine strenght and Lupine ferocity into one massive passive to free up slot for poison passive.
Within the S tier builds, how would you rank them? My understanding is there can be quite a difference in terms of PIt tiers they can clear and how fast.
@@AdlerSantos i think he is talking about fleshrender and no i think it wont be good on windshear builds cause u cant temper uniques, so unique weapons are quite shit this season. its the same for greatstaff of the crone for example, its better to have "chance for xy skill to cast twice" and "dmg to close/range enemies" on the weapon and its not even used in trampleslide builds etc. anymore to reset cd's. let alone stormclaw build -> no tempers -> useless
Slide storm is great. I like that Druid now has a none shape shifting human caster build. Cool that is exists. I really hope they buff Werewolf and Shred specifically. Blizzard has nothing to be afraid of with Bash Barbs running everywhere. I just want the fast melee Werewolf fantasy. lol
Can you update the Shred build? Is my favorite build by far, but I don't like hunter zenith too much for the build, as bosses is the worst part of the build, I prefer starless sky
I have 4xGA Tempest Roar, 3xGA mad wolfs glee, 3xGA unsung ascentics wraps. I also have Shako and tyraels tho for stormslide, but no crazy ga earthbreaker. Would for me a lighting storm wolf route be the better option until i find better gear for stormslide/tornado?
Hi, im lv 80+ ATM, i'm playing druid with pulverize and poison, with earth passive. Really fun, infine spirit lot of poison dmg and buff dmg to poison enemy.
Thanks for all the hard work and builds. I currently use wind shear daddy glass cannon version and pretty easily do 115+. I am trying to get the gear to try the slidestorm build but when i i had tried it a week ago with the budget version, i found i was too squishy. How do you deal with that? My defenses were all maxed. But sometimes when the cc dropped from the mobs id die. This was in the 80s too
To make Druid work they should have: 1. Add 2x 1H weapons (if so tiny Rogue can handle them then such a big boy as Druid can wear them too) - this means 2 more gems, 2 more offensive stats, and 2 more offensive aspects 2. Reduce spirit cost of Core skills by 30% so Pulverize from 35 to 25, Tornado from 40 to 30, etc 3. Remove some useless stats from Uniques (Insatiable Fury, Wildheart Hunger) and add Spirit per second because regular Chest and Boots can have it. 4. Add native spirit generation like Sorc has mana generation by default 5. Raging Pulverize should make Pulverize Overpowers every single time. Too OP? Pulverize can hit for 400mln while Barb's Flay bleeds for 1.5 billion per second! 6. Remove "up to" from Legendary Nodes like Earthen Devastation so Druid would have some "infinite" scaling as Barb has After all these changes Druid still would be way worse than Barbarian but at least from some D-tier, it would become a solid A-tier and 130+ PIT pusher.
It breaks my hearth watching all classes in showcases fighting helltide monsters like those mobs were something. Meanwhile we have barbarians one shotting Maiden and trampling everything
My favorite Diablo 4 build is the Werewolf Tornado. It's still OK, but so underwhelming compared to the top choices... Also, Werenado requires a rare Unique, takes up Shako spot and cannot benefit from any Uber Unique weapons, which is a loss in itself.
I don't care for the play style that Wildheart and the shape shifting talents all on different timers (3, 6, 8 plus 5 for WH). Zenith is ok but I have moved away from it due to tempers so I dropped Zenith/WH and also had to drop Lightning Dancers but I'm now using GR with the 2 aspects for it and dont feel like I'm missing too much. Keeping up with WH on such a low timer just wasn't worth it to me and worrying about keeping my Key Passive up wasn't fun so I switched to the Storm one. Druid is really a mess right now as far as damage and just how the class functions. It takes way too many aspect slots to get functionality (I'm using TR and 2 aspects to enable GR in WW and extend its duration, that's 3 aspect slots just to let me cast Storm skills in WW and use GR). They really should consider leveling the playing field with Barbs for aspect slots, there are PLENTY of ways to do it.
the problem i encounter with druid is that a lot of builds aren't fun and also the building process isn't fun since we have limited aspect slots, mandatory aspects and boring boons. hurricane far worse than dust devils, boulder clunky af. hurricane and werewolves also bad to play. stormclaw and shred has a lot of potential but suck. pulverize again. i really enjoy the landslide/storm build though.
Didn't you shit on this patch for druids? Now mobalytics is listing pulverize as the top build in all of the game. Considering this is without any cheese like infinite flame shield or 1shot Necro. Now I don't know what to believe 😂😂
Druide is core class!!! Not basic this session is not druide session bad devs team. On rogue basic skill amazing barb shit barb fuck that... Sorc basic skill good
You can still get 5 overpower guaranteed procs and might be worth a try if you can max out hp and overpower dmg. Drop the blood boil aspect (guaranteed overpower every 20 sec) and run shepherd with banish lord?? Worth a try if you got the gear and gold.
