At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

so, i dont really see this working in 1v1, but if you insist i strongly suggest you get something with a longer range than a staff or club to bite people, since you have to shift before you can bite

Yeah it would definitely be tough to win a 1v1. I like the ias on jo staff base over the range on other staffs,frw can help close the gap a lil too. Most weapons with 2+ ss are mace class (clubs) as you can get a base with ias and sockets to sheal for + ias.



I use this one on my main rabies, it has lower range though

Alright so the character is up, was gearing him and paused to think about what boots to use. Not sure if I should do a base of 65 str just for bug nats,treads of cthon up'd, rare 30 fr res mesh boots. Or should I just save the 15 stats points and main sanders boots?

If using fury should I opt for cb glove, may be kb? (using blood fist atm)

On swap should I try insight for fury?

To answer your question, i will ask you a few questions.

1) How much frw do you plan on having? And do you want all of that frw to be bugged?
2) What armor do you plan on using? Viper for the skill, fcr and res? A 3 sock life plate with shaels? Stealth for fcr/fhr and glitchable frw?
3) What shield are you planning on using if any? Whitsans? 3x sheal kite shield of deflect for the 4 frame blocking?

My gut feeling is that for this to have a shot at working, you need high fhr and fbr so that you aren't constantly stuck in animations.
Druids are tricky to plan out in general, but adding fcr to the mix makes things more complicated lol. Realistically, you will want to hit the 68% bp for tele, which would be: Staff 20 + stealth 25 + (something like Ring x 2 + Ammy OR Circlet/Gloves + Ammy or Ring)
Viper gives you more flexibility in the armor slot though as it allows you to have 1 less piece of fcr gear. But again, it really depends on your frw needs

Out of curiousity, which matchups do you think would improve for you if tele was added to the build?


^iamasylum what do you think?

Honestly don’t see any matches where tele is better than passive wsg

You’re basically looking at trying to tele in on hdin and maybe necs/sorcs

Zon is a maybe? But you’d need 5x wolves
Barb is a no go
Charger maybe



Insight is too slow unless you go insight bec for huge damage, but then you’d have almost no life. Fury can get away with it since fury maxes lythan but that’s the only reason.

It feels bad teleporting into a zon when they can lightning fury you on staff side.

As a side note, I would be really curious to see someone film the entire tele-morph-swap-swing process to see how long all those steps actually take. Whirlwind has no cast delay so swapping is smooth. I fear that the person he wants to stomp can just tele or run away

i know he is pro, but both nado and shockwave are ranged attacks that depend on fcr so they have more synergy with the overall build. Rabies requires ias and needs a ranged weapon to poke with :(

Well I want good enough frw vs runners in tvt so I was thinking 130-140.

On my main I use Sanders boots, didnt really focus on str bugging any thing. Just feels like going with the str bug for a 65 str would be the most beneficial to wsg with.

Armors I on my main are spirit shroud, and stealth. Absolutely going to use vmagi for this guest. 80 life armor seems like a great idea. Could sheal it like you said or pskulls?

Unsure about what shield to use, was thinking whistands (sheal). Could a sigons shield be a thing?

Rep is a huge deal for this class I feel like, most of your dmg comes from dot so surviving is important. I want to apply some dps with fury and that's why I thought may be cb gloves. Not sure if I can make if viable with the ias aviable though...

I'm not sure how/if tele would improve the build , I was just explained that there could be potential to it.
