PoE 2 Druid - Release Date, Overview, Skills, and Ascendancies
Druid Release Date
Druid Overview
The Druid class is a new class with the STR / INT attribute. This makes them start at the same location as the Templar class from PoE 1, with proximity to the Strength and Intelligence portions of the skill tree.
(Top Left)
The Druid’s signature weapon is the Talisman, which is a new weapon type that will allow them to shapeshift into three forms:
- Bear
- Wolf
- Wyvern
With PoE 2, the Druid class is a hybrid between Spells and Attacks, using a combination of both to clear monsters. Your character's Human Form will cast spells, while the animal forms will perform attacks to combine mechanics into more powerful effects.
Druid Skill Gems
Stay Tuned for a full list of Druid Skill Gems. For now, you can reference the Content Reveal Livestream to see the teased Skill Gems.
Druid Ascendancy Classes
Shaman

The Shaman is all about elemental destruction, similar to the Stormweaver for Sorceress or the Invoker for Monk.
Pick this class if you want to scale the effects of your Elements to massacre the screen.
Oracle

The Oracle is all about seeing the future and alternate paths. With the Oracle, the Druid can unlock a special Passive Tree, opening up new passive nodes that aren't available regularly.
For now, we won't know the power of this class, since there's a lot to explore with its mechanics.
