How viable is the Werebear in LLD

Can you go max block in LLD

I have a 2os, Visio, +5 Maul, Life, lvl 30 pelt I want to use as an excuse to make a LLD Werebear

dont do it

That's what they told me when I made my GM Melee Maul Bear and yet it is done. I even got them to change the rules to allow maul to compete.

I lose every match, but I'm a fucking bear.

Would this be worse than that?

holding left click for wins is already bad enough so do as u wish

I hold left click for losses.

How decent is this gear?

idk i dont do melee

Viable, no… can you do it? Ya… just gonna be a worse fury druid.

Maul is an okay melee in Lld. It’s basically a weaker fury druid but can stun. They are fun to build and funny to play, but you aren’t going to dominate anything if that’s what you are looking for. In melee, I found that a balanced build with some defense works best, but especially on d2r ladder you’ll probably just want to go with peace armor, sojs, and adsod over rares. On my melee mauler I went with:
5 maul/10fhr/life/2os pelt with Min-max/ar jewels
24fhr/90+Ed/2os erep ornate with min-max/-req jewels
17fhr/3020/90+ed/2os/erep grim shield with 2x shaels
Upgraded gtoe
Soe
Upgraded bfist
Rare rings min dmg/ar/stats/mana
2ss/80 life ammy unless you can find a superior rare one
The standard weapon would be robo naga but you could potentially do better with the right rares

You can see from that list that if you replace the rare stuff with peace/sojs/adsod it’s pretty cheap besides invent.

You can hold a tvt setup in stash with 20x frw sc, robo grim scythe, 2/30 frw/2os circ.
