frw nice mod for dudu ofc
but you need 2druid/10fhr/viso/3 fury/3rabies/2soc to beat jalals. you really need big res and fhr on helm also cbf if you want ring slots free
frw can be stacked to catch zons from nigma + cats eye or just doom lol
id just fire facet it and use for fc bear or something. dunno about value or practicality but cool item anyway

This is the most toxic thing I’ve ever read

U mean something like that

A lot of misinformation here. With 2.4 patch, having a 2 socket pelt/circlet can be the make it or break it of your build due to changes in how IAS is calculated. This is critical for GM dueling where Grief PB is banned, which is basically your fastest weapon choice taken from you. There will be times when you want to use a eth fools weapon and if you don't have a 2socketed helm to put in for example 100AR/15IAS jewels or 40/15s or 15max/15ias, you would no longer be able to hit 3 frames with it. The owner of this circlet knows that at least. Also, Jalal is crap and not used seriously, maybe Cerebus, but you if you need 2 socket, Cerebus won't help you. The 30frw is a huge bonus since mobility is critical for wolf druids as well. This is absolutely 8-9/10 trophy circlet in terms of 2.4 D2R standards, the only way it could be improved is if it had dex/life/all res instead of strength - strength is honestly the least useful stat here due to gear changes. Also, there's almost no instances where you can use a Cat's Eye instead of a HL right now, the 20ias and damage boost is too critical.

The 5 fury 2 OS visionaries you saw on LoD were imports. We are not likely to see that anytime soon in D2R. In the absence of this, this is an extremely solid runner up.

Jalals is best for wolf vs all
if you say cerberus is better then your thinking melee duels
but then why would you need frw on a circ if its for gm melee?
i used to have one of those import helms i believe its called Kiba's Loath Hood i think its still around
and jalals was better
also had a similar but better circlet than this with base res which sold for ALOT
but practicality wise it was useless unless i wanted to chase down a zon (and tbh i could have used any random 30 frw helm)
in almost all cases jalals >
i dont think thats changed with 2.4 updates
and that's unfortunate because it is a really cool item
in alot of cases common uniques or RW's undermine godly rares

doesnt understand the 4 year rule/10

You're thinking LoD terms and not D2R. Mobility is extremely important in pub duels now, probably more than ever. We no longer have 08 Highlords, we no longer have 5% FRW small charms. Various 2 socket rare circlets are going to beat Jalal every time in D2R if you're thinking pub duels. If you're going up against nova sorcs or FoHers for example, a 2druid/30frw/light res circlet stacked with good melee LR jewels would beat a Jalal. This just isn't LoD anymore. I don't see almost any scenario where a Jalal would outperform a solid 2 socket 30 FRW circlet, and I think it's become a very budget/casual player/mediocre helm with the recent 2.4 patch. I'll say I haven't seen higher tier wolves wear Jalal in any duels recently, in pubs or otherwise, but (and no hate to casual players) I play with people who spend a lot of fg on their wolf and are super into them, so maybe that's more a function of the group I play with. I've seen more casual players wearing Jalal and I'm not going to lie, I pretty much concluded that it's because every single fury wolf druid guide says to use it. But there hasn't been any updated guides for a fury wolf druid for D2R that I've seen, especially for 2.4 patch which radically changed its mechanics for IAS (and therefore gear choices). And I'm not sure how a crazy import with 2druid/10fhr/3fury/3rabies/viso/2soc with potential other good mods such as life/resistances would *ever* outperform a Jalal but I'm open to hearing why you think that.

The 2.4 updates changed the way fury wolf druids are geared, particularly the helm. As I mentioned, 2 socket circlets/pelts are now top tier if you're trying to achieve a 3 frame build. Depending on your weapon choice, having your helm 2 socket instead of 1 can be the literal make it or break it of your whole build. And even in cases where you don't need the extra 15IAS from another socket on your circlet/pelt, a solid 2 socket 30 FRW circlet still beats Jalal. In my opinion, this applies to just regular pub duels but only becomes severely amplified in GM duels because Grief is banned, and a large majority of GM melee players strongly avoid using runewords such as EBOTD. They want to use a nice eth fools/cruel weapon, and, depending on the weapon, that's when a 2 socket pelt/circlet is going to become critical.

I think this circlet would be insane if socketed with proper melee stats jewels and would outclass a Jalal any day. I am imagining FHR/ED/str/dex jewels or ED/AR/str/dex jewels (I have no idea what the hell is going on with FHR changes so maybe not to the first jewel). If you're using a fools PB or something, flat damage jewels would be super cool.

im telling you jalals > all rare druid helms (not nado obviously)
arreats > almost all rare barb helms
i know people like to have fancy items worth 50k ect
but most of the time a 20 fg unique will beat it
i guess thats why grief is banned in gm melee
maybe if they ban jalals too this circ will be good

/e if you can equip fort str wise you can swap it out for enigma and boom 45 frw + 30 cats eye
not many things you cant catch
can also proc feral on a monster (or zons valk) if you really gotta run

I strongly disagree. And ain't nobody proc'ing feral in any real duel It takes too long to charge up and wears off quickly....no one does this, dude.
So now you're trying to get rid of your 2 socket option for IAS + 20 ias from the HL and the extra damage for that? This is not optimal fury druid setup in 2.4.

i dueled in pubs with hybrid fury/rabies alot man and i used feral alot to catch zons or even pesky sorc its actually very helpful
you sound like a melee guy man..
also cats eye has ias as well as HL and its not like you need DS vs anything thats already running from you its a simple swap depending on opponent
same with swapping between fort for damage or nigma for frw
one good thing about this circ is that it has over 20 str so you can swap it with jalals if you really do want that extra frw and extra socket
i normally cham my helms so ring slots are free
that circ would prob need cham shael tbh then no ias anyway
