stinging storm

Do you use it? I had it leveled up a bit for a while, but since then I used a book of rebirth and took all the points away from it and into nature's touch/lightening strike (which thus far, I have found to be more useful). I did this at the advice of someone else.

So, I am a solo player. And I am having a LOT of trouble killing bosses on my own. My attacks seem to do nothing and I am wondering if stinging storm would do more damage than lightening strike/strangling vines? Idk. I am at a loss lol I don't want to join a clan but it seems I can't get anywhere if I don't.

I found stinging swarm to not be worth the energy cost, especially for players who mostly play on their own (for raids it is fantastic).

My preferred solo build is:
- Nature's Touch
- Shield of Bark
- Bless
- Lightning Strike
- Strangling Vines
- Storm Touch
- Abundance or Howling Winds or Breath (if skill points allow)

This allows me to solo most everything I want to!

If I ever find the manuscript pages then I will have storm touch... Unfortunately I am having quite a lot of trouble with that lol. On the quest it says that they are found on the higher level druids, imps, etc in stonevale, but I haven't found a single one despite killing plenty of higher level mobs. Is there specific mobs that they spawn on?

As a low level, Storm Touch is not worth it -- for now, go with Lightning, Nature's Touch, and Bark/Vines (pick your favorite, or level both)

Swarm is nice if you can support the energy cost, to boost your damage I also reccomend maxing vines and strike but try get a hold on rings to increase it further

I've maxed out strike and nature's touch... so now I think howling wind or strangling vines next..

Yeah so I am a huge idiot lol I bought a ring on auction for 22k gold that I thought increases my lightening strike skill by 20.. but it actually just increases my damage by 20........ yeah ok that seems useless lol

embrace is my favorite as a solo druid. cast your bark bless and embrace, vines swarm ls. renew embrace before it times out. nt at lvl 1 can't be interrupted btw. need time to heal? cast santuary, even at low lvl it gives you a chance to cast a heal or rebark. consider using a shield as you offhand, doubles your armor in most cases, get one with vit and regen . borrow one from a friend to try it out. you may be pleasantly surprised.
