Solo'ing Druid (Video)

Heard most people seem to struggle with solo'ing a druid at a high level.
I made up a build and put it to use, got around 3 1/2 minibars on a lix at level 190. Not as fast as a Rogue, seemed faster than a Ranger, and used 0 pots 0 idols (is also a very fun build to play with).
Nothing special in the video, literally just showing the stat set-up and the 15mins of lix. Enjoy

For some reason I just am not excited to get to 190 anymore... What rings were you using?

I was using 2 Vines rings, 1 Howling Wind ring and 1 Lightning Strike ring. Ideally you'd have your best damage rings there. The event helm will also help a ton as all 3 skills on it (Wind, Vines, Touch), are all used.
The build is great fun. I'd probably stretch to say that I enjoy levelling it more than my Rogue, it is certainly a more interactive class and build.

So I am guessing the build was: lvl 50 hw, lvl 50 vines, lvl 49/50 strike, lvl 49 storm, and rest in touch? Interesting.. Ill try it out!
By the way, which helm were you using if not event?

I was just using a Mighty Lightning Strike Helm as I had a Grand Dragon Ring of Vines, and Grand Dragon Ring of Wind.
Skills:
48/40 Howling Wind
50/40 Lightning Strike
50/40 Strangling Vines
40/40 Storm Touch
45/40 (I think) Nature's Touch

Same build i use for solo leveling. Does work well. Couple of questions myself if you don't mind.
How did you get your defence to 850 with only 100 dex? I have 250 dex and a def bat charm from last event and only have 650. I'm sure the combo helps but I can't imagine that much.
How's your hp so high with such low vit and small bonus? Mines the same in full dl and 330 vit.
But yes this is one of my favorite druid builds and makes solo leveling easier. So many don't think about a druids auto attack with dl totem and offhand axe. It is slow unless you're on a combo or haste.

My Defence was 625 pre-combo. I was using a Hrungnir Armour/Defence and Hrungnir Damage/Health Braces. I'm not sure if actual skill braces may be better, but the Hrungnir braces worked well

(that is the only boost to health and defence that I had, apart from Combo ofc. I could have gone with 50 vit to increase the speed of my kills, but now I can switch gear to about 3k+ health for Boss AoE's).
