Does howl wind really use dex?!?!? :0 never checked

#34The spirit shadow armor is also good at lower lvls especially because the bosses are easy to get to and if you can get a higher lvl to help you and you dont need a groupe, u can get the first few pieces in one day then it takes longer, but the armor bonus is better than most at your lvl and the focus is really nice.

#35This is super helpful, thanks for posting! I already have my build but for new players choosing druid, this will make it easier to lvl for them. Druid is a rare breed on my server.

#39One thing that I've found useful on my druid is using the Frostiron totem for extra melee damage and an offhand axe. I've always gone a little unorthodox with my builds though.
On my druid, currently 123, I use Grand Frost totem with added vines skill and ice spell, Fiery Axe of Triumph, Hero Gloves with pure DPS rings, HW event bracers (wanting Aggy Lightning strike) with a Grand Swarm Ring, Greater/Mystic Lightning spider rings and a grand Vines ring.
The reason I opted for an axe offhand was for the extra melee damage in between spells and DoT. I didn't see a huge increase in equipping an offhand focus item, and with the axe I'm getting melee hits for 150-300 points per hit depending on how many stars. To me, this extra damage is more valuable then a little bit more skill damage, reason being that if you have an evade from that DoT, you're missing out on that damage until recast is done.
With the new hotbar setup, you can always equip focus offhand when casting spells and switch to melee offhand for DPS in between. Being able to have a set up for support and DPS is the easiest way for me to switch back and forth as to not have to re-alt every time.

#40On an axe build would it be viable to use aggy damage rings in place of skill rings? Due to hitting about every single second I wonder if the added damage from the aggy rings would beat regular grands or royals.
