It's a defensive tactic much like when you let your BO down, recover quickly, and then BO back up to a much higher life percentile. When you start hitting full Rep builds, you can gain significant HP base by running around and recovering. I explored these builds on my trapper, except using rare FHR Rep Jewels and Rings on claws instead.

I'm willing to commit to trying a Rep Build on a Druid seeing that it's also convenient that I spent only 150 fg on this Circlet months ago to some clueless seller, and it works against many builds


yeah in theory that would work, but in reality its not worth letting ur bo or oak run out just to replenish an extra 25 life

its actually the other way around, u replenish a normal amount of life around 8k life only for it to be less life when you receive dmg when ur oak is dead, and im assuming ur not doing that replenish life thing 90% of the duel, at least i hope, so then its far from worth it

The dropping oak / BO so you rep life at a smaller max life number, and thus you rep a larger % of your total HP pool in a second, makes replenish life stronger once you then reapply oak or BO.

I’m sorry math is so hard for you.

yes and if you wouldnt be such a monkeybrain you would know that if you would replenish 30 life with 8000 life, that would actually be less than 30 life when ur oak dies as it get's scaled down

once again you prove how stupid you really are, it's really not that hard

What rare ring and crafted amulet are you using with your circlet ?


As of right now, I have 3 Amulets in stash:

2 Druid /19 FCR /12 life / 10 mana / Regen 6% /21 LR
2 Elemental /18 FCR /20 mana /regen 8% /@Res 12 (Level 95 Req)
2 Elemental /20 FCR /26 life / 14 mana/ Regen 4%

Rings are

10 FCR/ 13 str / 13 life / 73 mana
10 FCR/ 17 str / 13 life / FR 7%
10 FCr / 17 str / 16 life

Replenish life is a fixed amount based on a formula, not proportional to your max life. So when you drop your BO or whatever and you're at your base life, you recover that same fixed amount which is a lot higher in percent than your max potential hp. And when you reach that cap, that HP recovery can add up to several hundred post BO or Oak in a very not so long period of time. Seeing that it only takes a couple rings, Hoto, Dungos, and/or a few other niche pieces like jewels, boots, or in this case the Circlet, it's a considerable choice to capitalize on the Mod that can be useful if you strategize around it.

It's more of a recovery tactic against builds that don't engage head to head, I.E. trapper. If they're playing attrition, it's your way to counter it. Not so much an offensive type build or playstyle.

Seeing as Druid only now needs 27 Str at 99 and 20 anni/torch to use spirit, I would focus on finding an amulet with high Str, as you would use that in all your build anyway.

It’s also notably much easier to reach max res on Druid on d2r since hoto is no longer fake res (because you would wsg, you couldn’t really count the resist on hoto) and because there is no SoP (this giving you 35 lite/cold/poison res). Assuming 50 resist from charms and 40 from torch/anni and using a 40 res hoto, you only need 20 Lightning resist to reach 175 and 55 fire resist to reach 175.

But seeing as you will likely use aldurs, for more frw and big life and big fire resist, you only need 5 fire resist and 20 lite res (or 25 lite res if you use Lo in circlet, which I don’t suggest, I suggest going Cham circlet + wisp ring).


Your circlet is good enough for now, especially at the price you paid.

Pelt for pure dmg. I run pelt with 99/99 setup. Rather a circ on 163 fcr. Would never use a circ on 99fcr because I would lose about 400 dmg in nado

Anyone suggesting 99fcr for nado Druid should never be able to give advice.

99 fcr mb is a good build. Any good windy has two setup. You obviously don’t know what you are talking about

99fcr is never a good build

And max block on Druid is absolute dog shit. You have wolves for a reason. They are your block.

Jesus you are dumb
