Stronger alternative gear swaps for vs. Druid, still GM
Add these into the Amazon's stashed gear setups:
Get an 8% ll and 15% DR String of Earts
Get an 11% ll Crafted Blood ring with other supportive damage mods (+dex / +9 min)GM Zon vs. Druid -
.08 Vampire Gaze -- Jeweler's of Whale -- String of Ears -- Blood Ring 11% LL -- Phoenix ShieldThis setup will provide 27% life leech against Druid Summon recastsZvD can be a very easy match up or one of the most difficult, depending on how experienced the Druid is
Experienced max FCR Vita Druids are usually more dangerous than max block Druids
Max block Druids lose a frame of FCR and believe it or not, matters everything for their ability to get away from Fury and Guided Arrow namelocks
You'll find that max block Druids are much easier to avoid and namelock than a good max FCR Vita Druid
Max FCR Vita Druids (If experienced), are fast at getting in and out, resummoning for cover and escpaing namelocks in general
A good Druid will never stay on-screen stomping you unless he has his summon cover up, this makes them very difficult to hit
Basics:* Multi-Shot the Druid's summons down before he gets on-screen
* Learn well to WSG out of telestomping Druids, Tornado creates aweful frame locks to an Amazon
* Only move left, right and directly down while WSGing out of telestomps
* Namelock the Guided Arrow as soon as the summons are down but always be ready to WSG away preemptively
Techniques:* Using javside to down summons - Important
If a Druid is too fast and sneaky to Multi-Shot down his summons on his approach, you'll need to use javside/Fury if he gets too close
Javside is important because (A) Damage Reduction on Stormshield, (B) Stormshield Blocks and (C) Fury hits hard and FHR locks well, which leads to:
* Maintaining namelocks while switching from Fury to Guided Arrow (See techinques in Bowa vs. Bowa), Use this same technique when the Druid retreats for his re-approach
* Standing by walls or in corners - This is a great way to better line up your Multi-Shots, it helps narrow down where the Druid will be comming from
Just don't stand too close to the wall or too far into the corner
* Strafing can sometimes work great vs. Vita Druids, considering he is the only target for strafe to hit
BMing a Druid:Lacerator is just unfair vs. Druids (See Swordback And Lacerator Switch Glitch)
