Yeah the problem is nado is slow and is very hard to aim. They are so great in pvp but awful in pvm. If you are just having fun in sp I'd still try it out yourself.

I do like the fire damage you're talking about. But until I find a fire sunder charm I'd probably run into more fire immunity mobs once I reach Hell difficulty. With a wind Druid I have two sources of damage. Physical and cold. With the ability to proc some decrepify or perhaps amplify damage from the mercenary. So I assume I'll at least have a better chance to dish out some type of damage by the time I reach Hell difficulty.

Yeah best bet would be make a non rotw char farm a normal fire sunder make a mule and convert the mule to rotw. It's a lot of work but the new sunder is so hard to get would not be surprised if it takes less time to do all that lol

Ah. I was just reading that the amplify damage from Atma's amulet only procs from a non-spell attack.
That would've been ideal if spamming the tornado physical skill would proc it non-stop. Would be OP.

But I'm sure I'll make a Lawbringer for an Act 5 Mercenary as soon as I can. Those runes do drop a lot.
A monster would have to be stone skin with physical and cold immunity. Even then I'll still do some damage.

I had no idea. Thank you for telling me. I'll try my best to find that beauty. An Act 5 mercenary can obviously use a two-handed sword also. <3



Of course. If I end up coming across that bad boy I may just go make a Warlock that isn't a pure demon summoner. Damn that looks so good to me.

Not sure. This season just started a couple Fridays ago. MrLlamaSC got to Level 99 super fast.
I remember on the old Diablo II: LoD. Most notably in 2008-2012. I was grinding for months!!

And I'd always hit Level 98 Summon Druid on Hardcore US East. 99 in ladder online shouldn't be that easy.
But regardless I'm done with online play. I just want to chill and relax. Enjoy myself on offline single player.

Also because I'm playing on the Nintendo Switch it's more challenging soloing by myself in 8 player games offline.
Rewarded with ridiculous experience and hopefully high runes and more loot. But I'll have to play at my own pace.

Amp needs physical damage (non-spell) to proc.

Would you guys recommend I play a Blizzard Sorceress instead of a Hurricane Druid?
If I'm going for massive cold damage that can farm some bosses. I'll have teleport also!
Problem is I'm not very experienced with that type of build. I guess the fun is learning.
