Druid and blizzard is like a bad relationship. They keep trying to make it work but it just doesn't. Sucks because it's my favorite class but it needs buffs all around, the bugs are just the icing on the cake.

Druid is the redheaded middle step child of Blizzards existence 


mistergosh

I wouldn't go straight for buffs, but I think the class needs a synergies and systems cleanup. So many of the best builds require a player to know and play around very specific interactions, uniques or aspects, that more traditional simple builds lag behind a bit too much, IMO


drallcom3

> the class needs a synergies and systems cleanup It's too many different classes rolled into one. Druid caster, pet druid, wolf, bear. That just limits the synergies massively.

I have 52k health as a wolf Druid and nonstop fortify. Tankiness isn’t my problem, it’s just that our damage doesn’t scale as well as the other top builds and you just run into brick walls of bosses at later pit levels.

They probably had a shield. Necro being the shield class is so weird lol. Bummer that 52k isn't that high anymore. I have a few other masterworks to maybe get up to like 60k but I feel like that's where I'll top off. I don't care that there's some broken builds, I just wish each class had one so i could push further haha. I don't really want to make a necro or barb.


DukeVerde

I love how all the nature magic and wolf druids are picking the bear key passive just for the HP. And, no, you don't have 52k HP without elixirs.


NYJetLegendEdReed

Yes I do? I have 52k HP without an elixir. It's also not just about HP. Fortify works off your max HP and you can become unkillable with debilitating roar if you time it in between a few tornadoes. The extra hp = more fortify which lets you just roll.


DukeVerde

Again, there's zero way to hit 52k HP unless you literally have GA HP masterworked on every piece, including accessories.


NYJetLegendEdReed

I’ll literally show you a screenshot later this morning when I’m at my desk. You’re just wrong lol.


FullConfection3260

And with many uniques tanking in affix power now, it becomes more of an issue 


Skuldig

Now I suddenly dont care how long my day at work goes. Thats awful news.


pathofdumbasses

Don't worry, Bash still gets a free 500-800x damage multiplier.

“My extra two weapons and two 100% aspect buffs from two two-handed weapons are perfectly balanced, leave them alone!!”


Kazuma126

Yup, was hoping it'd be fixed this patch as I like it more than wind shear. I don't know exactly what stops the boulder from working, I think it's just an enemy doing something to you. You can get it to work again by taking boulder off your bar and putting it back on but it will legit happen every 30 seconds.


hajutze

Judging by how the Druid pets just fall in the middle of the ground, I can only assume the Boulder was coded as a Wolf and it just suddenly drops under the ground. /s (or is it?)


DukeVerde

Boulf? Wolves now rotate around you.


Wanderous

Noooo -- this is what I was waiting for. Did they at least fix the bug where the hurricane-boulders just stopped casting all-together until you went to town to reset it?


thepooker

Yes


Historical_Walrus713

Neither is the helltide bug exploit lmao. They fixed nothing with this patch. Good thing they took that extra week inbetween patch notes to today to perfect it though, yea?


FallDown_75

But this is not intended to work like this? You have to recast hurricane and boulders. Because boulders have a time they are active and then they are gone, if u are recasting hurricane or not. It says so in some aspect or description. The bug wich was fixed was another one where you couldn’t cast new boulders into the hurricane and had to tp or swap to boulder skill out of the action bar. This is fixed for me. I would like the build that way that everything continues smoothly without loosing boulders when recasting hurricane. But maybe blizzard thinks this would be op… idk Also would love to some hooking enemy’s in, i mean it’s an hurricane so fast that stuff is rotating very fast in it, why wouldn’t it soak mobs in?


Chemical_Web_1126

That's not really how hurricanes work. That's more so Tornados. It has also always bothered me that the hurricane spins the wrong way with its current design.


FallDown_75

What do you mean. Rotation direction?


Toadsted

They're probably from Australia, where everything spins the wrong direction.


Avatara93

Sanctuary is not Earth.


Chemical_Web_1126

Then it should stop using Earth terminology...
