Just finished making my fury druid after 3 weeks of grinding, learning, and adjusting/tweaking some things thanks to this guide!
Big thanks to Koston for being patient with me while I made errors and had to adjust, giving me good deals on items I was forever hunting for, and giving me the inside scoop on taking my fury druid to the next level!

+1 in hopes it influences someone to read this guide and make a fury as well!!

Join the shapeshifting wolf/fury family/community!

Heya. Glad the guide was useful.

I really don't play pub duels ever and am way less knowledgeable about it. The guide is geared towards gm melee. I can parrot some general advice I've heard from others but that's about it. The first thing being that shapeshift druids are just really hard to play in pub duels because of the lack of easy teleport vs. other chars teleporting everywhere

Second thing is that Grief PB is super OP and gonna be the best weapon choice in a lot of pub duel scenarios. Metamorphosis is also the best helm and is very OP too. So I'm not super surprised that you got demolished by one using those items, unfortunately. you'd also need to use Meta and Grief to stand a chance.
Angelics isn't necessary vs. other wolf druids, they have very low defense. you're better off maybe using a raven frost for CBF, and a rare or crafted ring with either just stats or resistances depending on who you are dueling. The other option is to go a long 2 hander (ebotd archon staff for example) for long range to chase down casters.

I'm not sure what the best play would be vs a WW barb, but I assume you'd want to try and mirror the matchup and use a Grief PB + stormshield.
