bad screenshot / 10

7.5/10 realistically

9/10

How though? Just curious.

9/10

actually 9.5/10 for phone pic

If you’re going to spend that much you’re better off going with a circ setup for dvn

7/10

why would you ?

pelt for DvN, DvH, DvSorc mostly beats diadem imo
i´d go for a magic one personally

the frw is extremely useful for sidestepping spears faster to counterattack. The only situation I would maybe use pelt over circ setup is if you can hit 4.2k life without oak with pelt setup and would have less than 4.1k life with circ setup without oak. This would only apply in gm dvn where necro uses only 13 points into bone spirit. If they use more than 13 points it won't make a difference. At 4.2k life a single spear or spirit will have a 37.5% chance to proc fhr and at around 4k life you will have a 75% chance to be fhr'd so hitting around 4.2k life without oak is worth aiming for.

If you can afford a pelt like this then you can likely afford to hit at least 4.1k life per-oak with circ setup so there is no need to use this pelt.

In the case of dvhammer you don't use bear anyways and frw is also more valuable in that MU as well for when you get swirled by smite and chain foh into hammer stomp you can south walk to avoid dmg and counter with a quick nado before teleing away.

Also the + grizzly isn't actually giving you any extra points to grizzly vs a circ setup since with circ you will be using hoto and soj/bk for a total of +6 to grizzly and with this pelt and sbranch you will get +6 grizzly as well. Even if it did make a difference in grizzly level the dmg difference would be completely negligible after pvp penalty, dr and bone armor. +3 to dire wolves would even be better since it would increase grizzly's life and make it more able to tank spears. +hurricane would offer more chip dmg so would also be a more valuable skill to have than grizz.

regardless of the pelt posted

i´d take a 3 nado 3 ele 3 hurri 60 life 2 soc pelt over diadem

not sure if things changed in d2r tho, talking about d2lod

In lod you can use spirit wolves so the need for run dodging spears is decreased so pelt would be fine in that case. With spirit wolves in general it's much easier to avoid dmg so you can afford to go with a more offensive setup in that case imo. Only bear is allowed in d2r since summon synergies was buffed which makes spirit wolves too tanky to be killed by teeth and make the MU unwinnable by necro if druid goes wolves

wolves vs nec is a crime anyways

after all a matter of taste anyways

for dmg magic pelt, else diadem
rare pelts are overrated imo, you could have a 2 dudu 10 fhr 60 life 2 soc diadem i belive
