1. Gear

Helm- Jalal's Mane is a great helm w/ 30 fhr, +20 str, +20 energy, and res 30. Another option for poorer druids could be a shako ber'd or the spirit keeper, which has good sorb against light, cold, and +fire res.

Amulet- Mara's or a gg druid ammy with bonuses to str, dex, fcr, life, and or res.

Armour- Enigma of course.

Shield- Stormshield ber'd is a great shield that reduces dmg by 35%, +30 to str, and great cold and light res. Another option would be a Spirit shield, which had good res, + to skills, fhr, fcr, and + to vit.

Weapon- Hoto having 40% to fcr is a must for ele druids and the res and + to dex is great as well.

Gloves- Trang's or Magefist for the 20% fcr.

Rings- This could be on personal preference, but I would use X2 fcr rings with + to res, str, and or dex. BK's are good for + to skills and life, Wisp Projector and Raven Frost are good light and cold sorb rings.

Belt- Arachnid Mesh is a must w/ 20% fcr and + to skill.

Boots- Treks and Waterwalks for DvD.

Switch- CTA and Spirit shield.

Inventory- 9 Elemental Gc's, Anni, Druid Torch, and some 20 lifer sc's w/ + to res.

2. Stats

Strength- enough for enigma
Dexterity- Put points here depending on if you want max block
Vitality- Rest, should get around atleast 300 in here
Energy- Base


3. Skills

20 - Cyclone Armour
20 - Twister
20 - Tornado
20 - Hurricane
1 - Arctic Blast
1 - Raven
1 - Spirit Wolf
1 - Dire Wolf
1 - Grizzly
Rest- Oak Sage

If you max Oak Sage, This would get you to lvl 90 including that you did all 3 ancients and skill quests.

4. PvP Strats

I'm not that great into detail and would like some advice here for the pvp strats. I would think that you tele bomb almost every char, but need to be defensive against barbs ww, and use sorb against auradins and sorcs in bm duel games. Sorry about the poor information into this section :[

5. End Results

Your ele druid should be getting to around 3k hurri, 6-7k tornadoes, max block if you decided to put points into dex, 100-110 fcr, around 4k life w/ oak sage, and max res.

This build does not have alot of detail so advice would help lots thx :]

[Sgt-Tancred]

dont use jAlals use dudu delirium with some skills in it already. for example +to hurricane or +to tornado :)

[kenji51590]

oh ok ty for the correction sgt - tancred :D

[GalenDoUrden]

Do not use delerium. Use a rare pelt with +2 druid and +3 tornado. The stats on delerium are worse then useless. A rare/magic pelt with even one socket will give you better options then a delerium as you can put a nice jewel in there or a shael in order to hit the 99fhr.

If you want to flesh out your guide, you should talk about some of the different builds (ie. 99/99/max block, 99/99/vita, 163/99/vita, 99/174/vita). Generally people look for 19fcr ammies, so they are able to free up some items for both the 99 fcr (pelt) and the 163 fcr build.

You should flesh out your dueling strategies as tele stomping will not work against some characters (ie. trap sins/hybrids, exile wearing smiters). Generally it is best to provide a "vs character" analysis.

Galen beat me to the punch. Delerium is worthless IMO. I'm a jalas fan, because of the stats, I don't need the extra +3 skills.

Ah sorry but idk what 99/99/ mb or 163/99/vita is :[... is it the fcr then fhr stats?

[HWS-pvpowner]

the blue colour annoys me.

[GalenDoUrden]

Yes sorry it is the fcr/fhr. These are the common breakpoints that druids tend to achieve.

As for Jalals, if you aren't using a circlet or rare/magical pelt, then Jalals are a great alternative. It has some good mods on there.

[kenji51590]

oh alright thx

oh im not to sure how to get such a high fhr rate of 90 :[ as of right now, i have about 50 lol on my druid

[GalenDoUrden]

Generally I hit the 99fhr bp with the following.

Spirit, bloodfists, fhr in helm, and treks or rares. Then combine this with fhr gc's

For a max block build, you generally have to have more fhr in your helm or sacrifice more life with your gc's.

[dackman4]

if i was you i would seriously change the blue colour to something else,its incredibly hard to read.

[kenji51590]

ah sry idk how to edit it :[

[JKH]

[LukkySe7en]

Ya sorry about that I thought that color wouldn't be so bright and uglyiness lol I change it right now

[cthulhu dawn127]

I've been wanting to try to build an ele druid for a while but they sound so expensive to be really good (pelt, rare ammy, rare or magic rings) Those tend to be hard to find and expensive for me at least, but i think i'm gonna try this build thank you for the guide

[Wrongbow]

Good guide, though you could put more details into the PvP section, and SoJ's could be an easy alternative if you can't find the other rings.

Ya I know my pvp section... lol ya it's crap
and yes soj's are an excellent alternative ty Wrongbow

[dackman4]

soj's would be good if you new that they wernt duped and not going to dissapere in the middle of a duel...

Ya i know what you mean.. mine did :[

[Nosferatu]

You should specify the FCR BP, rather then putting other FCR gear options, they're useless unless you hit the bp >__>

Nice guide :)

[SkEpTiKaL]

Nice druid guide. Thinking of starting a druid after i finish the 'Din. Will definitely use this guide as a guideline.
