HOW TO (CORRECTLY) PLAY SOLO DRUID | ONLY ONE LIFE | Dark and Darker

[@PHNX0]

I came for a fresh take on how to play Druid. I stayed for the on-point bants, epic plays with useful commentary and Timothy-appreciation

[@bzfinn7913]

WAYY better content than i was expecting it really shows when creators put effort into a vid

[@BtheVictor2015]

You made me realize that as a druid the reason I wasn't winning any fights was because I needed a shift in tactics. Having so much fun now

[@PuntTheDog]

glad to hear it :D

[@mattsoder6401]

you got me at 12:20 with the "I'm a druid not a fucking Spartan" but then also the "i remembered i have a spear" at 17:20. Druid has so much stuff that i find it easy to be using the animals, spear, and spells at the wrong times. my main problem is times like 16:20 when you trying to bait into the bear but then get terrain blocked, sometime i keep jumping too far to the sides and getting terrain blocked over and over, that sucks. I think druid is a contender for highest skill cap thoughts? Also, timestamps in the video and the description, beautiful stuff. The video itself was very well produced. It's very refreshing to have dark and darker content where you get to see the highlight reel and the build in detail without the video dragging on to 45/60min or skipping the stats. Can't wait for part 2!

[@PuntTheDog]

bear form terrain blocking is the worst thing about druid. or being blocked from shifting out of rat form, from a fucking pebble next to you. i always jump while shifting, and just try my best to not be too close to any walls or shit i can collide with. but it can, and still does, happen. i agree, druid is very high skill cap. but bard and wizard are as well. i think there's still a lot to learn about the druid that we haven't even discovered yet, if i had to guess.

[@daneQuixote]

dude i laughed so hard at that as well

[@nomadicwolf6132]

Took my impressions & put them into words. I second this.

[@paulom5986]

Druid is for sure the most difficult class in the game. Dont beat yourself to much, with time you will get better.

[@mattsoder6401]

@@paulom5986 Or i can do what i did once i saw bro cat>chicken>rat into a closing door's window and start playing fighter lol. it's such a different game when you can just bulldoze everyone over without any repercussions a lot more fun.

[@daneQuixote]

Might be the best 20 min DaD video I've seen. Awesome work.

[@thetremi9149]

Nice video man, love seeing small channels with fun content :P

[@syrupchugger421]

You make druid look so fun! Being able to shift playstyle on the fly looks so versatile and perfect for playing solo. Thank you for the video

Huge W, great video, keep it up.

this is such a fresh and amazing take on a prog video! and the commentary is amazing hahahaha. keep it up!!

maybe one of the best druid gameplays ive seen!! great content!

[@JustGamingForYou18]

This is amazing. Your humor and teaching skills are amazing. I learned so much and had so much fun doing it. Thank you!!!

[@teh12man]

Without of doubt the best guide I have watched. Im struggling to play this game and you helped give me direction. Now I need one for each class lol, other guides pale in comparison.

Instant sub, because that commentary was absolutely beautiful. And man, I've been starving for some more Druid content, it's so scare! Really appreciate the effort on this banger!

i am going to have a new quick little -124gs druid build video coming out within the next day or two, stay tuned :D

excellent content my bro, gl in there

[@zoRN-f2f]

i barely watch any full video without skipping through neither i laugh anytime, but damn this was actually pretty funny, earned a new sub

[@strelok64bit23]

Like, subbed, and left a comment. THE best druid PvP guide ever made. With your help, my suffering as druid turned into somewhat reasonable play, and then with practice, i could kill pretty much everyone except rangers. The only thing is that you didnt show how to kill rangers and warlocks, these are huge counters to druids.

[@JeffreyKader]

Wow learned a lot, I've been struggling with PVP as druid and this is really good info.

[@lynxowner]

Honestly, having a hard time trying to learn druid. Those tips on how to fight, placement and all were awesome! Thanks so much for giving a overview on it all. Keep up the good work! I'll keep attempting it since I was orginally turned off but it was cause i'm basing damage off (warlock) for Str 15 being a minimum and agi being around 17. Only using bear. This gave me a new insight on why im dumb:P I'll be back to say when im atleast average as a druid!

[@Zahrmanos]

I really enjoyed this; looking forward to part two!

[@mortenbuskbjerg745]

Recently started learning druid and this was very helpful!

[@itzra2538]

This video is fire I wish I put this much effort into my videos I just get so lazy editing and not sure where to start. Good stuff bro

Really good video! I've kinda neglected druid due to wizard not feeling bad for solo this patch, might get to last minute grinding, thanks homeboy,subbed

I liked this video. I’ve been playing druid PvP with spear too much. Basically w-key with spear and rat away if I am hurt. I need to bear and panther way more it seems.

[@TheRealOfficialGator]

For those that don’t know 40+ agility panther hits 60+ on a right click. And for those of you who know how fast panther attacks are, yeah, it’s enough to basically 3-4 shot any player in the game before they get even one hit on you.

[@Aperson28_]

laughed out loud multiple times during the video

[@Bairhanz]

Love the background tunes, honestly such a vibe. I'm not a fan of the AI voiceover, but clean job nonetheless!

[@allrisk7319]

do you want to right or left click with the panther attacks?

[@PuntTheDog]

right, generally. plus if you dash and right click it has the brief silence/interrupt

[@allrisk7319]

@@PuntTheDog thanks

[@khlfff2]

I actually love this video man. Some Druid questions though - Do you only use right click on cat form? It looks like it, but when do you ever use left click? Do you think Druid is only good in solos? I never see any in duo/trio If you think it’s good in duo/trio, do the spells you use change? Do you PVE exclusively with cat form when you’re geared? I find myself getting BODIED by mobs. Any tips on non getting completely fucked while in cougar form? Via movement? Feel like side to side I get wrecked. Seriously been playing since the first playtest and I enjoyed this video more than all the other content creators. Subscribed for sure!

[@PuntTheDog]

1. i mostly use right click, because per-click, it does more damage. and often times you are running in and only have time for a single swing. also its easier to get headshots/not hit the legs with right click i've found. 2. druid is good at literally everything. check out @kazaren, he does fun bear builds in duo/trio. i can't speak much on group play since i really only play druid solo though. 3. i might replace dreamfire with treant if were doing group, just cause it's an extra doorway blocker. but i'd keep everything else 4. yes, when you have 40+ agility, you just DELETE all the mobs as a cat. i would not recommend doing this in anything other than goblin caves though lol, and only versus goblins. their little goblin heads are the perfect height to right click headshot them easily. bait an attack, run away, then run in, and you can usually fit in 2 right-clicks before they attack again, and if you are geared, that's more than enough to kill. you can even just run in and right click twice before they even get an attack off, if you have just a little extra dex, or time it well. i have a crazy 46 agility build i run sometimes where i can 1 shot those little bastards with a single right click as cat. 5. you just need to be aware of how your body moves when you strafe. you essentially become a giant, small but wide target when strafing as cat. if i'm like, dodging arrows/spells, i will never do it in cat (with rare exceptions). always shift out to human form to dodge shit. and thx my man

Damn...do I need to start learning druid now..? Btw aren't you using the tree?

[@PuntTheDog]

treant is garbage in solos. even pre-nerf. anyone with a brain will just run away, or kill it in 2 hits. and there's better stuff to be doing with your time than casting treant. like eating people's balls off.

@@tethan this was a fresh character, and you only get spear as a starter weapon after you do some quests and upgrade your squire.

[@kewin4955]

In a geared hr lobby u also dont use treant?

[@PuntTheDog]

@@kewin4955 it would make even less sense then. in solos if you summon a treant people don't just stand around generally. they just, kill it, or move away slowly. i genuinely believe its one of the worst solo spells in the whole game for any class. it's barely even useful as a door blocker, because it will just move out of the doorway right after it's summoned.
