Diablo 4 Druid BuildTrample Slide

Low Life is a playstyle where we intentionally drop to 35% or Below HP to make use of the stat ‘’Damage Reduction While Injured’’. So our main HP pool will actually be our 8k shield that will now virtually function as a 40k HP when you account for the increase in Damage Reduction. On top of that, the remaining 4k HP, will be the same value of having 20k HP without the Damage reduction from Injured.

Bulwark damage scales of the stat % Barrier Generation, it does not scale of Bulwark Level, and it does not scale of Aspects. The max barrier value is equal to your Max Life, but you can get as much extra damage as your % Barrier Generation stat EVEN if the barrier is over-capped.

Earthen Bulwark does a lot of damage, we are playing all high damage modifiers for Earth Skills that double and even quadruple dip if you apply enough sources of CC.

In this build we do not cast a core skill manually, it’s Trample and Poison Creeper casting Landslide.

We are also casting Earthen Bulwark with Innate Earthen Bulwark as it’s passive, a cool little damage ability that can scale with Barrier Generation on top of all other modifiers.

Petrify, can be used to deal with Elites and Bosses, it's really good in difficult dungeons as the stun serves as a mean of defense and not only for offense.

Nature’s Fury is the core of this build, the ability to reset our Bulwark is what makes the build good, it provides us with full uptime of all our defensive abilities and reset of our damage abilities at the same time.

This build has a monstrous defence, not only do we have perma Fortify but we also have tons of damage reduction while fortified and against poisoned enemies.

As a low Life build, we take the full benefit of Damage Reduction while Injured, meaning that our 8k shield will be worth 40k, and our remaining 4k HP will be worth 20k.

Earthen Bulwark will also provide a big shield and Maoschists a good chunk of heals. A notable defense we have is also the use of Vigilance, 15% Damage reduction every time we cast a defensive skill.

You should have at least 75% Damage Reduction while Injured. If you do not have it, just play the build as a Max life build till you do. Not much changes.

This build is really good for Nightmare Dungeons and Lilith, it has the highest defense in the game and nothing can kill it. Not even One-Shot Mechanics can. If you find your defense lacking, play with Greatstaff of the Crone for more shields.

• Play with a controller, it lets you move and auto-attack at the same time, really good for Rogue builds as well.
• Stack your fortify to 100% before you engage in combat
• Poison enemies as soon as possible
• Don’t stand melee with enemies if you don’t have Earthen Bulwark up, wait for it to be active before you get close, when you don’t get resets just walk away till you do.

Players think spells casted while not on your bar do not benefit from passives. The truth is that some of them do and some of them don't. In this case, we do not need to cast Hurricane from our skill bar to benefit from the 20% DR passive.
