I level bumpers for social qs. Decide to do what I consider budget builds. And now I decided to get rid of my smite/zeal pally. Make a kicksin and turn my ele druid into a melee druid using basically what I made for the zealer.
In the 25 years I've played i have not once made a melee druid.

I was thinking fury. To test it out since the gear is very similar to a cookie cutter zealer.
Ebotd, fort gores, etc.

Are there any other options I should look into

edeath
eth reapers toll

Barbarian with Druid Helmet

budget and melee. never heard of it.

social quests that sounds interesting, what is it

I dont mean start of season cheap at the end of the season kind of budget.
I guess I meant non gg conventional build. Which sounds like a long way to say budget

Hi mate..
Take a look at Smalps gaming on YT.. his fury druid is awesome and cheap.. I tried it and its very good..
overall the build focus on 100% CB and fast movement speed
Eth Death Decapitator, Hysteria Armor, Metamorphosis Druid Pelt
Act5 Barb with 1 Mania sword, 1 Lawbringer

Its a pretty straight forward tanky as hell, hack and slasher

Yes plz, what the hell is it
