All credit in this case then goes to ElectricBlue and Rapid-Fury.
.


Yes, for a lot of the Key Statistics and item picks ElectricBlue would be the person to quote. As I mentioned he was the Inspiration behind it all. Also, he sourced any info he didn't find himself to the appropriate people. He is the first person you should quote when writing a guide and give credit to.

Oh and to my knowledge ElectricBlue is the Grandfather of the rabies/fury. Unless you know someone that invented it before him with a guide?


Anyone know what ever happend to ElectricBlue? Oh, and Hi Inkanddagger!

Actually if you go looking through the dii compendium, you will find that Electric was the first to pioneer the build, but his was focused around carrion ring. He was also one of the first to test the skill synergy from items bug. In his initial "guide" really a discussion, a lot of people were skptical that rabies could even work. Of course this was disproven quickly. I actually was dueling in a league at the time that banned chance to cast items, and so I pioneered a form of the current rabies/fury back in 1.10 by suggesting angelics as a viable solution to the attack rating loss from investment in creeper itself. I think I was looking at rabies as balancing out the loss of deadly strike from highlords. And of course Garbad_The_Weak gets a lot of credit from me personally for elevating the build in Clan Honor/ex 76 Legit. I think I was on the first page of that thread when it initially went up smile.gif as I was a community member there from all the way back when dii was basically a d1 site supporting HU and game modding. I was also helping test the switch trick, which bou/rog credits me with a few pages back in this thread. So in reality, there were multiple people, both from the US East druidpk/grove community testing as well as people from electricblue's private realm (which he played before the bnetd lawsuits were concluded). Guys that haven't played in a few years and aren't well known anymore were the ones who helped to invent this stuff, but it was definately blue who gets all credit for his extensive compiling, organizing, and lab theory testing.

I am also infinately appreciative of people like Bullseye helping to elevate the status of shifter druids in general by bringing his personal experiences and thoughts to the table in the guide. I am great supporter of anyone who finds a love for shifters in general, and have always made an effort to help elevate the community and to improve it. So thumbs up for this guide, as well as to the people making their personal suggestions about how to improve it. Love to the druids! ~Ink (I think I am becoming a druid historian haha)

Because you give credit to the original sources of information.  It's called academic honesty, you stated that Kiba informed you on the char build (who was informed through stoute). If we look at how books are written, for instance; if one scientist sits and invents a new formula and another scientist is taught by him, who then goes on to teach a student.  Guess who that student has to quote, when it comes to the research and work going into a book.  If you guessed the original source you are 100% correct, because that source was the one who did all the work and research.  The other person was just taught how to make the formula and did not invest their time and effort into creating it.  Hope that gives you some perspective.


Well, he didn't teach me anything at all before I made this build.. I didn't technically learn anything from Kiba until I met him and dueled him smile.gif I just basically saw one of his vids on YouTube and said "That's what i'm fucking making next." I got a basic idea of gears my compiling a list of viable runewords, uniques, and rares which is probably why I missed so many awesome choices like CCSoQ, Gris wep, crated OW belt (which I should have figured on my own but was very in love with dungos) After that I just tested and thre down which worked best for me into this guide biggrin.gif ofc without seeing the vid I would never had made this, and again Kiba learn it from stoute, so in the general Rabies druid idea I do thank him, and he seems pretty nice from the posts he makes happy.gif I'd love to duel him as well (ofc I would get trashed I bet) But I am L Euro, and don't have the funds or interest/time to remake another "Viral" there.. The only thing that keeps me on jsp is the great community

hi, nice build biggrin.gif

i have some questions:
u use bramble.. aren't ur resist low?

i'd probable wear silence pb (2sk 75resist 7fpa w/rabies) in order to enhance psn damage and power up resistances.

another one: if the ar is good, i would prefer to wear chamed jalal, so i don't care about frost raven, that way i could use dual bulkathos.

Im also kind of curious as to how your res are, my pub setup needed some duped boots to hit max all res if I recall correctly.
