I wanna make a PVM melee Char to play and do some MF.

How is a Werwolf Druide. i hear blizzard fucked up the Ias Calculation and Speed for Werwolf Druid?

I am thinking of a Werfolf Druide or a Zealer Pala or Frenzy barb :D

What u think is the best for some pvm Melee?

Frenzy i thought is always a bit sketchy.. not doing enough damage.

You’re not going to get significantly difference in damage but Fury Druid and WW barbs does most damage because of 2 handers BUT they lack teleport in form(Barb can use teleport and has fast FCR).

So number 1 melee class is WW Barb, unless you’re doing Ubers, then roll Frenzy or any melee, Smite is best for Ubers. And what makes a significant difference is Find Item. Also, Barb is best in dealing with immunes as Grief on pally doesn’t work with Veagence(Sanc aura does deal with Undead immunes well) This is for D2l.

As for D2r, Fury Druids pull a lot more damage but I think Barb is still better because of shouts/Find Item/ and Berserk. I’m sorry but pallies only have upper hand when going hammerdin compare to Singer and Windy.

berserk + find item is a legitimately good pvm build. blows both frenzy, shape and zeal variations out of the water

I always liked zealer and fury druid but I hate getting stuck in the attack animation. Frenzy barb is awesome and you run fast enough that I've never felt like I needed enigma.. that and Fort ftw. I like to stack CB on frenzy since you get so many attacks out you're always chunking mobs. And you can level berserk with it as well for the phy immunes/damage.
