ill show you a pic of me with barb bo... i have close to 13k life :P

and tails. i did make a 85 lite res mass fwr rep life dr block build to duel hybrids (minus dr and block for trappers)

i always seemed to get by in the past with just my normal build.... but dam this made it so much ezer so thanks for your angry imput which forced me to test it out and add a new build to my stash(/edit)


im not angry im just a huge prick ^____^ dont take what i say too seriously

np though glad its working for you

/e also try out lo/wisp if your build allows it, it reduces damage more than LoLo does @@

setups seem okay

although circlet build you could just use arch shael helm and get fhr from inventory since it gives you flexibility on rings slots since 10fcr vs 20 fcr i.e lo wisp helm on a 2/20/2 shael/lo + abit more dmg etc

Also allows a good opportunity to use bfists and fcr ring so u gain life/fhr and fhr. Since imo circlet> vs all where you don't need pdr/ pelt is only nice in situations where extra dmg is needed i.e vs hammer nec and res may not be as apparent, yes you can res on pelt ofc but for a cheaper setup a circlet can fare better and is nicer in tvt situations i.e 2/20/30frw life etc circs...


also hammers these days all pack 1 point smite with hoto + 1 point fana allowing max frame smite combined with 1 point foh so u can hold namelock and stun with swirlies creating opportunities to stomp on the hammers end. A decent hdin uses a combination of hammerfields/ hammer stacking and ofc namelock/chainlock in order to beat druids.. Also setups can vary since on occasions hdins can also put grief allowing for devastating smite dmg and ofc charge locks as well...

You can stomp but you have to be extremely careful i.e "sniping" tele in drop 1 nado and tele out fast and aways 2+ screens to break any chances of namelock/chainlock... and ofc try to aim for blindspot but again very quick since smite is a good cover for blindspot.


wwsin strats are really bad as well ;

this character can be annoying but will be fairly easy if its pure ww sin, this is because they dont have the added hits of traps that force a druid into a fhrlock, these since can be defeated by using a Druid vs WWBCV strategy


unless im missing something and the sin is just whirling up and down not using any kind of mb of sm... i don't understand..

Since with mb regardless of if the trap does dmg or not once you have swirles over head even if traps did one dmg it would still put you into fhr annimation also since wwsins make it hard to wsg out of traps as well since whirlwind covers up this problem area... sin section tbh is very flawed overall since vs sins wsg + casting and teleing to new spots with possible snipe attempts is the only way to have a chance vs a decent sin and vs ghost which have max mb + (SM casting often with AA hit capability = almost always having swirles on head) hard hitting whirlwinds can make it extremely hard since any dmg ca

yup im aware, i was talking about just straight up ww sins that dont use nigma, not ghosts (ww sins with traps)

but, my current circlet build has been updated

i use 2/20/58lifer/20dex/2os shael pruby (iso this with 30fwr) base stats dont inclue the rune/gem in the circlet
hoto
rep life fwr fhr resist lifer boots
10/24/57lifer/reist belt
fcr rings
2/19/60/19dex ammy
trangs
spirit sheild

and i think thats it... gonna fuck around with it a bit and see if i can get a 2/20/30/50+lifer/dex or resist/2os circlet and Lo Shael it

with this build i have
163fcr,99fhr, 8300 life, 56% block, max resists, 8dr from nigma lol, 6400 nado damage, 39 life replenish (want fucking 40 ><) and 105fwr i think

I use bug belt with 75 res vs sins atm, but thats only cos most good sins I play on eu are using a w/s setup vs me as druid ( vs a c/c sin I'm using t-gods and need to perm for anya bug :( ).

Vs a c/c sin I dont think 75 @ would cut it ( as cyclone armour will be pierced much more ), only other thing is, if your using a 24 fhr belt and a shael in circ, with spirit you have 55+24+20 fhr = 99 which is the bp - so i'd prefer aldurs over your boots tbh even tho u sacrifice a bit of life rep.

so i did a little experiment and built a druid with these exact items, or better versions, and you're either lying about your build or you tmc

Hello, I'm going off of this build right now. But the problem has been finding the helm in this ladder so far.

Would this work as a temp until then? Or should I use my 2/3/10/40life/1os pelt?

Don't assume ur doing the same thing I am
Don't assume im not doing sumthing unseen
Assume I know every glitch and I'm using them

If you never herd of the life glitch then go do some research and come back to me when u have the answer
This is my best kept secret up there with making hybrid runewords

Good day sir :P
