Dang I build a fury with this guide (lovely guide thanks for writing it)

Build
Cerebus 115ar 4fury + 15/38 jwl
EDeath cleaver Zod'ed // Grief pb for public games (non gm)
1.5life 28@ Forty in 10ed Ap
Stormshield with -15req 20ed 9str 9dext
Highlord
Raven
25str 90ar 40life ring
Soe perfect (i don't use cyclon armor)
War travs
20ias 10cb gloves // Bloodfist for fhr

Invent
Torch
Anni
6x +1 shape shifting / 40+ life
3x 10max 70ar 35+ life
5x 5fhr 3max 15+ ar
10x 3/15+/18+ (swapping with the fhr ones to get to 42)

8k life with oak lvl20
Fury lvl20 Werewolf lvl20 and Lycantrophy lvl20

And I got destroyed by another fury using meta triple angelic (rings/amu) and grief pb
Like he had 80% health at the end of nearly all matchups lmao
Still got a lot to learn xD

And how would you play vs a ww barb with stormshield?
Thanks for all the precision!


Go meta or gface in pubs vs other physical dmg dealers. I prefer grief zerker for the range, barbs will out range you if your using pb. Also, if you come up against a smiter, then throw Cerberus on and an ebotd great poleaxe. Vs casters , you gotta hope they’re bad lol. Try throwing hustle armor on and a frw circ with res stacked and etomb.

Hmmm I read this again after being again destroyed by a zealer (still won like 2-3 times over 20 duels xD)
Maybe i need to use maxblock?
Current setup

Cerebus with 15/38
Forty in ap 1.5life 210ed
Stormshield with 20ed/9str/7dext/-15req (pala had zero source of cold dmg so no need cham)
Eth pb 40ias 281ed Fools 6min dmg Lo'd
Triple angelic
20ias / 10cb gloves
Perf soe
Gores

5* +1/40 life
4* 10/60/38
4* 5fhr/3/18
6* 3/18/18

I used EDC but i was only at 30k ar i think and i see on ur setup u got 47k ar with edc
Pala had over 30k defense so I decided to use the rare fool pb to reach 52k ar

But maybe I lack some dext to reach max block and lot of ar? (I got around 53% block)
How'd you get 47k with EDC?

Also i had trouble reahing 8k life even with lvl20 oak
Maybe cause i'm only lvl88

Thanks a lot
Do you have some fury duels on ladder?

Thanks for the time you take answering my questions :thumbsup:

Bud, every single melee pvp character should have max block.

This, and with EDC you would use gface and angelics any/2x rings and put a cham in your gface or stormshield with highlords/rends/dungos/gores

ALright will go on maxblock
But with edc and cerebus (120% ar) i still was too low on ar to hit the zealer with 30k def... even with angelic

2x angelic rings / angelic amu / gface (cham either this or stormshield) / edc / rends / dungos gores / stormshield (cham either this or stormshield)
20/x torch / 20/x/x anni / 9x ss lifers / 9x max/ar/life scs 1x 5fhr/max/ar sc
30fhr from gface 10fhr from dungos 5fhr from sc = 45 fhr (42 fhr bp)
don't need to worry about ias because with edc + hl you hit ias bp (60 ias bp)
or you can rock cerebus just change that up a bit xD

How are you dueling without max block? Don't do this. You need 237 dex at level 99 for max block on druid. Do not duel without max block. The guide says this right in the beginning:

Stats. Generally, putting enough strength in for your gear, enough dexterity for Max Block (75%), and the rest into Vitality is key (no points into energy). For niche builds, you might pump strength (such as to wear a Fortitude in a sacred armor base) or dexterity (for more damage and attack rating when wielding a dagger), but this is rare.


You need to use a token, stat for max block, and report back here with how much AR you have with the correct amount of dex.

Also, if you're doing pub duels, Grief is far better than the fools PB. If you're in gm melee duel rooms, though, I guess the PB is fine.

There are multiple problems with your setup. How are you hitting the DR breakpoint without Verdungos? Why aren't you using 9x 40 life SS gcs? And so on... This setup is a guaranteed loss in any gm melee matchup. You'd have to change several things.

EDIT: Scratch what I said on the Verdungos, didn't see you were using a perfect SoE.

Yes I could see that after reading again xD
My bad
Yeah I use grief in pubs but we were trying gm setups
Got perfect soe + ss so I got 50%dr
And I'm buying the ss just i'm low on fgs an play only like 5-6 hours per week so not in a rush to finish my setup
