Hardcore Fury Druid Finds the Sickest Items (HC, SSF)

[@tavernwench2383]

Thank You for your services playing a ruff painful character grind

[@thenuclearrabbit]

It was my pleasure!

[@blazedehart2748]

14:36 man. When that BFG Division hit, I just about lost it. The Doom 2016 soundtrack is one of my all time favorite albums.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I even bought and then didn't play the game because of that soundtrack. It's so good

[@seanl5006]

You should retry fury druid but max Dire Wolf and Oak Sage, while getting the 1 point wonders. It makes for a very tanky and safe fury druid (very tanky wolves and grizzly), which offer many more targets for enemies to hit and allow you to attack with impunity.

[@arth8265]

Fury druid can be solid (assuming you'll get past immunes later), but pretty slow, like any build which relies on direct melee attacks without AoE. You can make tank werewolf druid, with Fury, Oak Sage, Carrion Vine (you need only 7-10 points to get great boost in health return like 8% from every corpse), then you add Feral Rage (some people max it), and optionally 1 point into Hurricane as crowd control. Some people invest in Grizzly instead of Feral Rage, some people invest all in maxed Carrion Vine. Different variations, but still solid except immunes. Crushing Blow and Cannot be Frozen are essential for any melee.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Fun to hear about little variations like that. Agreed on the Crushing blow and Cannot be frozen for sure.

[@LOZARATOR]

This is my first build I've got to hell difficulty! Currently on Act 2. Managed to make a smoke and also found a Jalals off Nightmare Baal! I used Humongous Giant Axe and then Hone Sundan Yari through Nightmare. Finally found a Fleshrender Barber Club from Hell Andariel and could make a Rhyme to not be frozen anymore. Recently found a Titans jav and traded it for a Reapers Toll, so can finally kill those pesky physical immunes! Act 2 here we come. I feel your pain no Hell countess, it is so rough, especially with phys immune ghosts. Don't know how you are surviving at all without bear to tank. I need to farm for treachery but it is suffering so just ignoring it for now and trying to survive xD Keep the vids coming!

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Good luck! It only gets harder from there. If you still have the hone sundan I would use it for sure, it's an amazing weapon for a wolf. Reapers toll is also an amazing weapon for a wolf. I just run past the physical immunes. I run past way more things than most people. Survivability was fine with feral rage and 2300 life to be honest. You can always go for oak sage but it's not really necessary I'm very lucky I got treachery for sure. I would have farmed meph nm for something otherwise

[@pauliusgecas472]

Earth shifter in use, what a blessing for the eyes!

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Yeah it's such a cool item

[@qasimabdul-baki6919]

Cannot be frozen is a tough ask, but the cold pots do help reduce freeze duration a ton.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Yeah thawing pots would have helped a ton. But I just never thought of them in my earlier runs

[@GoldenredDragon]

"Wolfly holding on, I dunno" AHAHA!! XD (17:12)

[@thenuclearrabbit]

:D

[@mindlessmeat4055]

I remember my friend back in the day, original release, mained a paladin and sorc until LoD came and had made a druid with this spec as well.

[@ryanzurawskii]

diablo gameplay and persona soundtrack just goes together nicely. well done.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Thank you :)

[@TheCooderix]

You probably know this at this point, but you can reliably get cannot be frozen by farming the cow king in normal for the death's sash and gloves (1:76) which also gives you +15% res, 30% poison res and 30% attack speed, which is seriously good. I always do this on my melee characters!

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I've been told once or twice yes. Thanks for watching ,:)

[@TheCooderix]

​@@thenuclearrabbitBurden of being a KZbinr, being told about the same information over and over again

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I used to work in customer support and I was a teacher for a few years. I'm used to it :) Definitely totally worth it though

[@DaBigTwink]

i did not know this. thank you

[@entarork1]

Nice playthrough. I am doing ssf sc frenzy barb on Ladder right now. Its similar experience. But its also fun and refreshing to be excited about random blue or rare items too. Currently lvl 60 with bulwark, peace, magic sword, hexfire. Getting better weapons is grindy as hell.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Once you get that weapon it's so satisfying though. Gl on your run!

[@Tumasch]

Insight RW is very nice for the fury druid, he is naturally fast with polearms and the damage plus other mods is actually great. Other than getting lucky with a Bonesnap, that is the best progress weapon. Other than that the druid has a lot of potential good weapons, as your video showcases. Two handed weapons have respectable damage, and between uniques, sets and runewords you can easily get something useful. For the CBF the best solution is Death's belt plus gloves. Both are low level items that have a very good chance to drop from Normal Cow king. The combo gives CBF, 15 all res, Life Leech and 30 ias. Now we can upgrade the belt into a demonhide sash to make it actually usable. I go with the oak sage, he will give you up to 5k life. So much stuff in hell is unleechable anyways. Having a big HP pool reduces the amount of hit recovery you get. Ar isn't that big of a problem for the wolf, you got Fury boost plus warewolf boost. If you take a AR-aura merch, you can easily do it. Also also, i too tried doing the solo-wolf route, but found having the bear to tank and scout corridors invaluable. The build has a lot of spare skill points anyways, it is easy leveling the bear to respectable levels.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I never found a proper base for insight. I had the runes for insight and honor and just guesstimated the sockets at larzuk. Death's would have been good but it just didn't happen. Yeah I mention at the end that I thought the bear would have been better and I later specced into it. Once you get to 2k+ hp you really don't need it though. Just extra safety which can be very nice

[@Tumasch]

@@thenuclearrabbit Also, why didn't you make an Oath? You had the runes. It is true it is best in an ethereal base, but you had access to the pits, you can run them without MF and get a descent base. Big props on your try, I hope it is evident I am a passionate werewolf fan and that my feedback is in good nature :D

[@thenuclearrabbit]

@@Tumasch I just refused to give up on the Fal rune. Sheer principle of the thing at that point. After Baal I did end up taking him further and making an oath for my merc

[@lolwhatidk]

that jackpot holy moly

[@laserdrip]

Great run. Really enjoyed this one. What a nice find in the pits. Congrats on finishing Hell, Artorias would be proud.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I never went hollow

[@jm_rusty]

One tip to get a good weapon early is to gamble a maul. It starts appearing at level 17, it just crushes act 1 and 2. once you get to level 30+, you can cube a Savage Polearm (66-80%ED) with the following recipe: diamond (any) + belt + kris + staff. If you get a partizan or a bill, you're good to go.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Wow I had never heard of that crafting recipe. Thank you!

[@bn357]

Awesome video. I am just doing the same HC SSF run ! Am just starting the hell countess run grind… did not have your luck on runes though and my res are trash. No treachery. Only good find has been steel driver which I’ve upped. I do have CBF (ghost armor) but still no CB… So got a lot of work to do! Very impressive you’ve managed. As you say one of the harder ones I’ve done so far - though still can’t manage to finish vengeance paladin.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Good luck! This one took me forever so just keep grinding and you'll get there. A bunch of people have mentioned vengeancedin at this point. I should get one going sometime soon

[@harmen4750]

Im currently doing a ssf werewolf/summoning run. I end up with basicly the same werewolf skills as you, but only 10 points in lycan. The rest goes into the summons and oak sage. It works a lot better without good gear than only wolf!

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I'm recording another wolf based build currently and I was thinking of not maxing lycan this time to get summons. Glad to see someone saying it works.

[@SeveN_TP]

Why dont you play as elemental till 60-70, then respec to fury?

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Cause that's not the point of the video :)

[@qasimabdul-baki6919]

For normal diablo, I wonder if a triple tal flail on the switch would be useful to swap with malice back and forth when he isn't green.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

That is a really good idea. That would definitely work. Just switch up open wounds with the poison. Very smart I like it

[@stofsk]

Congratulations hero! Pro tip: a row of thawing potions = the poor man's Cannot Be Frozen.

Yeah, I totally should have done that. Still think the mod is to rare though :)

Also, I had worse luck... Wanted a Pul rune to upgrade my Softcore SSF WW Barb's Bonesnap to elite. Ran Hell Countess from lvl 72 to Lvl 82. Got two Lem runes dropped, 5 Fals, 2 Mals, 1 Ist and 6 Kos... But never a Pul Rune. I cubed two Lem and 3 Fals for that Pul Rune. 2 runs later, Physical Bowazon. Got a Pul rune dropped from Nightmare council member on Durance Lvl3, and a Lo rune from a boss mob on Hell Tower lvl 5.

[@thenuclearrabbit]

I get that. I use a few of the chars from the video for farming and sweet builds and stuff :) I could try to ssf some of your theorycrafts if it's not super unreasonable on the runes.

[@whitekony1006]

@@thenuclearrabbit hhmmm...most of mine are pretty rune intensive, like dual phoenix firestorm/maul bear, beast iron golem 2h Edeath telewhirlbarb with brand for Amp on switch....but seer recently did a poll for s3 build ideas-the winner was unfortunately plain old poison dagger necro but the runner-up was melee only 2h mace sorc-alot of us were p disappointed he didn't do that. I can imagine quite a few ways to do a viable run of that; insight staff would be a good budget weapon, as would passion ogre/thundermaul,especially with plenty of cb/ds stacked up. Lesser used runewords like black or famine could fit here nicely,the latter has alot of elemental damage you could synergize with mastery.The build would probably be a split between energy shield and enchant. If you had access to more expensive stuff,a pheonix thundermaul with maxed fire mastery would be pretty cool,buff firestorm, enchant and use blaze to get around as much as possible. Something similar could be done with hoj,as well as doom thundermaul,but for cold. Fortitude might be good here as a weapon for once,safer than other options. Beast would be sick for obvious reasons, one never gets to see it used as the main weapon,let alone a 2h. A lawbringer hammer on switch would be great for decrepification. I really would love to see someone try this lol,I'm tempted myself but I've already got my vengeance kingslayer decapitator sorc

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Yeah the runewords are a bit much for ssf. But ng+ is always an option. 2 handed melee sorc. Man that is a combination of words I never expected to hear. I'm kind of intruiged now though

[@scaerverie]

Great run. Was always scared, but now eager to try Fury. Hmm... so I guess my style is different, I would used 1x UM rune for Crescent Moon to get some non physical damage (and b/c Static is just generally good). Then the 2nd UM for Duress to get Cold + Crushing. (But Earthshifter & Treachery look good too.)

[@thenuclearrabbit]

Duress is probably better. But treachery basically makes you unkillable which is really nice. You can always get cb on other slots but getting fade is not possible otherwise. The earthshifter was a ton of fun, but I wouldn't be surprised if Crescent moon would be stronger. But I'll probably never get a chance to use a ssf thunder maul again so I just went for it

[@danielandrews3878]

Nice job ! For gloves, you should have crafted the blood ones, you can get up to 10% additional crushing blow, some HP and random affixes. With so much grind you had, its impossible to not get at least a decent pair. Same could have been done for belt. Also, game is not really over :D You still need the Ubers.

Nice going! I'm doing the same thing - I'm playing werebear with maul though. I'm considering going Fireclaw before Act 4 - I can't really find a decent weapon. I'm considering a very fast weapon and just go ham with the Fire claw - should give some free damage through the tree really.

@@JJV7243 depending on the build it takes 12-18 hours in total. With exceptions for things like spearazons and fury druids which easily go over 20 hours. Sorc runs take about 9-10 hours. I'm not going to use a timer, because at that point I'm just speedrunning

​@@thenuclearrabbit been thinking of how this build would work better if you could put points in the summons and get a wolf pack going with a bear. Seems like you were struggling at times because you were often the main target and pulling a lot of the aggro. Having the wolves and bear will break that up and give you a lot more breathing room. I probably wouldn't spend that many points in lycanthropy. SSF makes this a lot more difficult tho. Like I've got a Summoner druid who I'm thinking of respeccing to a Summoner/Fury wolf hybrid because I picked up Jalal's (lucky!) and two Fleshrenders (druid club with +2 to shapeshifting and just +1 to Druid skills and bunch of other goodies). I'm not strictly SSF tho, I play solo but stuff I find I share between all my other characters. My ladder character is currently SSF tho. A point - just a point - in carrion vine could go far as well! It's a one point wonder. Noms on corpses and converts that to life for you, albeit not a huge amount without a few +skills.

I ended up going into summons and mentioned wanting a bear as well. Shapeshift summon hybrid is something I want to try as well.
