Dress my Druid!

Just posted this over in the SPF, but figured I might as well post it here too!

I am about to reach the very pivotal level of 84 with my Druid, this means he can finally get his boom-stick, my 3os Tomb Reaver. Until now, I have been toying around with some gear but not really found a match I like - so I turn to you guys for some help.

My goal is to reach 10k fury dmg (in the char screen ) with this char, and for him to be able to survive questing Hell on /p8, meaning enough life/res/etc to do so! After pat:ing him he'll probably be doing mainly area clears, like Pits or Diablo.

Skills are 20 Fury/Lycan/Werewolf/HoW, rest is currently in 1pt wonders such as bear/vine. Hes currently wielding a Bonehew so he is a little STR heavy but planning on respecing at 84 (or 85 if I go for Arkaines). Switch set-up is Stormshield and an upped (yes, an upped) Plaugebearer.

So lets play the game !

Just choose your ideal set-up from the gear avaiable:

Helms: Jalal's [Um], 4/2 Cerebrus Bite, 1.07 Jalal's (not yet forwarded, currently on my .07 Druid), Shako, Vampires Gaze (have three, highest is 19%), Tals Mask, Guillames Face, others? (have most s/u helms other than CoA, VoS)

Armour: Shaftstop, Lionheart (Boneweave), Duress (Boneweave), Leviathan, Arkaine's Valor +2, Gladiators, others?

Gloves: Bloodfist, Dracul's, Sould Drainer, IK, others?

Belt: Verdungo's, String of Ears, TG's, IK, Crendenium, others?

Boots: WTs, Waterwalks , eth Sandstorm's (13/12 iirc), Goreraiders, others?

Jewlery: Angelic's combo, Highlords, Mara's, Ravenfrosts, BK's, Sojs, rare dual leecher 6/6, others?

Sockets: have ed jewels (32, 36, 38), max dmg jewels (15-18), ias jewels and runes (up to Gul, can be cubed to Ohm but hoping to keep it for an Exile once I f�nd the base ) to socket the gear with, if you think of something smart. Currently think the 38ed jewel and 2 sheals are going in the Tomb Reaver.



I play Vanilla SP, so do not have accesss to ubar runewords etc, just have to what I can with the items I have Now please, DRESS MY DRUID! Thanks for playing

/g|||Going down the list:

Jalal's

Duress/Lionheart --> Smoke*

Drac's/BFist

SoE

Gores

Highlord/Raven/Dual Leech

Sockets look good.|||Cheers! Think I will hit the 10k mark?

You reckon smoke is a better armour or is it just to make up for res? I have 25 all res on charms as well.

/g|||I prefer Smoke for the Res since Gloams are usually my biggest threat.

You Should hit 10k but I'll make no promises. Regardless you'll be a killing machine.|||I havn't considered Gloams as of yet, maybe a TG (+ Highlords) in the stash is cover enough? My main problem when running the Pits at the moment is mana burn and archers. As of late I have resorting to "bear bomb" them as it gives me enough time to run up to them and regain some mana.

Is this char viable as a Titan do you think?

Thanks for the speedy reply btw, much appreciated!

/g|||Titan's are always fun . You just have to be careful. When I run Titan builds for Fury I generally hybrid into Fury/Summons to make up for the lack of tankiness.|||If you having problem with ranged monsters switch your armor to gloom.

It's 15%ctc Dim Vision works wonders.|||Or learn to cast Ravens |||I generally prefer lifetap for pvm for more safety. Sometimes you might want to take on big packs so dracs are nice for pvm fury druid.
