Build Overview

Click Screamheart above to see all of my builds!

Erase the entire screen with Pulverize! Now we're slamming down puddles of Poison with Rotting Lightbringer! This has consistently been one of the best leveling options for the Druid and can hold its own in the End-Game. Utilize the power of Overpower and crush enemies into dust!

Navigate to additional tabs for Mid-Game and other variations.

How it Plays

Alternate Claw and Pulverize to build up Quickshift and Heightened Senses stacks.
Activate Grizzly Rage for many bonuses to damage and utility.
Use Debilitating Roar to reduce enemy damage and increase the damage they take.
Cyclone Armor is used for passive Damage Reduction.
Spam Pulverize to kill everything.
Use Claw at least once between Grizzly Rage casts in order to get the extra damage from Toxic Claws.
Wolves act as mini tanks, but are mostly there because there's nothing else useful.

How it Works

This build utilizes various synergies related to buffing Core, Earth, Werebear, Nature Magic, Poison, and Overpower damages.

Rotting Lightbringer allows Pulverize to create puddles on the ground that give additional damage, but most importantly guarantee Overpowers.
Aspect of the Ursine Horror allows Pulverize to be an Earth Skill, which opens up many offensive options.
Shapeshifting occasionally gives us many offensive and defensive bonuses such as Quickshift and Heightened Senses.
This build Overpowers constantly due to Rotting Lightbringer, which means that Willpower is a bigger priority than normal.
Size Tempers make Pulverize hit a much larger area.
Aspect of the Rabid Beast turns our damage into Poison Damage which allows us to take full advantage of Toxic Claws.
Grizzly Rage offers many bonuses itself such as perma Unstoppable, but also allows the use of Aspect of the Rampaging Werebeast.
