It would be so cool if you did a playthrough of this game from normal to hell. I just started playing D2 for the first time a few months ago and your videos are super helpful to watch!
If summon nec (with CB Revives) is considered #2, I'd put sword Frenzy Barb as #3, followed by Fury druid. It can have all of the mentioned druid's pros and can reduce or remove all its cons (teleport, fcr on switch, Lawbringer for immunes, extra resistances) at barely any extra cost. Love the druid though. Good work!
@@kinciscorner CB is 'crushing blow', and there are monsters (Blunderbore class, like Urdars in the River of Flame) that have the effect on their attacks. They retain their crushing blow ability when the Necro summons them with the Revive skill.
@@edgarsnow2463 so that's what it means. Thank you very much! I wonder how you guys get those mons to ubers. They always just time up and die before I do much.
you don't think doing Duress + jalals is better? you get a ton of fhr, comparable resists, some enhanced damage, cold damage, and the 20% attack rating off jalals. you could even dump the gores for upped goblin toes, and still be running 90% crushing blow.
I think since you have 8k life you can afford to sacrifice your sage for the damage sage, what you can also do is put on kiras for meph, huge boost to res, but good video man
Another option would be to ditch life tap for amplify damage. He can tank without lifetap lol. Also, laying on hands works with fury. Laying of hands + amp damage instead of life tap would probably speed up his kill speed. He has open wounds from gores so losing dracul's only makes him lose life tap.
i think (and i agree with him) that he wants to play it the safest and getting as less issue as possible , liek in this video he is taking time to kill mostly everything . i really think for uber gaining 1 or 2 minutes is not important , personally as i see it the damage looks "good enough" . the way to make it really amazing is the eth ribcracker with zod ... gl...
@Runeword but doesn't feral rage kinda already cover for that? I'm thinking life tap isn't mandatory on a fury druid as it is for instance on a paladin.
Yeah you need to overcap res to an insane degree to be almost capped against Uber meph. That gear would never suffice for that but it didn't matter considering how easy it was for you to clear it.
I feel like you are ignoring DR% quite a bit. The only time your life goes down is big chunks off melee hits, and your DR% could be more than doubled. You mentioned prebuff fade at the end which I was thinking the entire time, but also like others have mentioned you dont really need the full 100% of CB, so why not use vamp gaze or CoA or something?
SICK build dude. I literally have been looking for pro tips on fury druid for ubers....I would choose a little less CB and definitely a eth reapers on merc. But other than that you are a genius.
@@readabook5823 Very good point, however it is still extremely useful. Since I can't tele, I let merc decrep everyone + holy freeze, then run right past them and head straight for mini bosses. It works wonders. However, it is useless on Uber Trist. 100% good point.
@@readabook5823 Mercs are useless in Uber Trist regardless, they die immediately from Meph. Again though as I stated, werewolves cannot tele, so instead of fighting your way to the mini bosses, you allow the merc to holy freeze///decrep minions and then run right past them. Crowd control is essential unless you want to kill every monster in your path.
According to this calculator, d2.lc/IAS/, your IAS jewel in the helm of your merc isn't doing anything. Please let me know if I'm wrong here. Trying to build out my Fury Druid as best as possible.
@@alinstoian4393 Why would only weapon IAS matter on for the merc? The reason the IAS jewel isn't doing anything is because it's not enough to get to the next attack frame breakpoint.
So many people have this confused, Tgods sorb is just straight damage, not a percent of damage being sorbed, so it's basically useless for sorb and the +10 max light res doesn't mean anything if a player or boss has some -res to get you under 75. Tgods is absolutely wasted on meph. Only decent if you have a ton of stack, even then probably be better off with other belts on most chars and just using wisps.
Having 85 might res and sorb is not useless. It's just more survivability. Point is too overstock res so you are still 85. I really disagree with you on it being useless.
@@Dbrunski125 Didn't know you were at max res. It's obviously situational but there are a lot of people that still don't see it is not a percent, not saying you didn't know that. Imo most duelers have, or should have, enough -res to nullify tgods or make the stack hurt your damage. In Pvm I'm sure it is much different and probably more useful. Anyway wasn't criticizing you, I enjoy your content. Thanks for all of the videos
Sick build db. I hope you find a perfect eth ribcracker soon for you to burn that other Zod rune of yours 😁 also cant you spare a few points on armageddon maybe? Just to take care of those pesky PIs. The bugs have very little life anyway so you dont need very high fire damage plus your merc has infinity.
You waste to many skillpoints for that and the duration is bad. Than it is even easier to get a Reapers and prog decrap or kite realy well. You should use all points for more HP/Damage and ignore ghosts and bug swarms. (would even better to use Rabies XD )
also, non eth ribbie is better, especially with a 40/15 jewel. More damage overall and you place monsters in hit recovery faster and not the other way around, since fury IS intreruptible.
I like when you speak, game sound it get to background and when you are silence it come lauder . Is that your microphone ? Good guide , especialy by using ias soket on your weapon . i seen many people using ohm or eth in weapon mean is a waste of soket .
For the physical immunes, would rabies work? Or can lvl 1 amp damage break the immunity? Maybe have a cranium basher on switch? Trying to make a single player Uber Druid. Gear is limited
Not i single boss spawned any Mobs around.. when i fight there are dozens of ghosts making my uber hillarious 20 mins surviving or archers and mages lurking around all over tristram. You just walked to the boss and killed in 30 hits. Even i got more AR and more defence .. probably the one benefit i dond have is infinity , that helps to win 200% time.
Overcapped res,... - 3% with Meppel's conviction -.- I see what you did there -.- Treachery and prebuff for the nice lvl 15 Fade (+ 60 all res etc.) Than it works realy well and is also budget. As you mention.
@Jim Bob's Arcade Weird benchmark, classic debate (usually boots, sometimes gloves); Ranged CB only works at half efficiency, and physical resistance applies if it's positive. I prefer +damage and %ED over CB in general, like Travs / LoH over Gores / Blood gloves.
I dunno. Been trying several builds on Plugy SP. Nothing except smiter seems to work well and this build largely as dumb as the smiter. Same gear, same stats, same order of doing things, isolate the prime evils but then they don't die anywhere near as fast (even had to check I in fact didn't have CTA equipped by mistake) and the minons eventually do too much damage. With the druid lack of teleport also becomes a pain as you're zerged by mobs and baal then teles. I had a tough time with the kicksin too. This guy is clearly tankier though.
@@bowtiebilly6955 ahh thats right i was thinking of open wounds. plsu u could switch out other gear. idk though. id be interested to see a test. but yeah eth rib is probably the best
Jim Bob's Arcade I mean that’s the thing. Rib has base atk spd of 0 PB has -30. So wouldn’t some atk speed gloves pretty much make up for it? And again this is all semantics for sure. Unnecessary min maxing I suppose. But it’s interesting still even today in 2020!
Lol watched all this because I have issues with baal and his minions, if there were no minions it would almost be too easy, oh well I'll try another vid
Kicksin is still the #1 for ubers. Needs less gear than any other character and she is still doing it faster. I dont know how you can be so confident about druid beeing top 3. Its just not true
''laugh in smiter and summon necro''. I would say Top 6-7 personnally, my top 5 would be : 1-Smiter 2-Summon Necro 3-Frenzy Barb 4-Zealot 5-Kicksin I can't see druid top 3 either haha.
@@XDarkStrikerX when you can afford last wish and exil i would say smite is the number one. but at ladder start and with lowgear summon necro and kicksin are insane. fade makes it that kicksin need like no gear. gorerider and guillaume are enough to do everything. everything else can just be resistances. but it comes down to personal preference. my experience with kicksin is just that she does it so easy and smooth, i would allways play her over anything else.
@Jim Bob's Arcade hard to follow your english but i hope i understand it right. the 100% hitchance is definitly a big plus for smite but i had never issues with the attack rating on my kicksin. the skill itself give alot. also it is quite easy to level. i leveled multiple times on ladderstart with her and it's easy to farm things like dia (death sentry is insane for clear) travi and close to everything else you dont want to teleport (mephi)
@Jim Bob's Arcade sry but when i read through this i have the feeling that you completely miss the point. why the hell are you talking about natalyas? why would you argue that the druid has decent life if his gear is around 30 hrs? every single build out there would have decent life with that investment. natalyas is complete trash when it comes to ubers and it is by no means necessary. not even a slightly bit. did you ever play diablo 2 or are you just mumbling things you heard from a couple of videos? also, why do you like your own comments?
This is a very unfair advantage to people that play closed battle net. When there are tons and tons of minions in trist it’s a hell a lot different. Smite > any other build if your playing closed bnet don’t expect the same results.
What this dbrinski talking about if u got 26k DMG on bear u no need any cb just max ias and 24k DMG on warvolf is also op u no need this cb and own ubers fast...
Wow no ww barb for top 3 ubers I’m shocked. Double grief, laying of hands, gface and gore riders with a reapers toll merc makes it the fastest killer of all, even beating the smiter.
No one cares about the optimal speed with optimal gear. When talking about which the "best" build to solo ubers is, the question is always "which one needs the least expensive gear to do it *safely*," and I would say his judgment that fury druid is the 3rd on that list is fair.
