S-Tier Druid Build for Season 4! Werenado Guide - Diablo 4

[@Rob2628]

The Werenado Druid is one the strongest builds overall for Season 4! Walking around as a Wolf and destroying monsters with your god given nature power is an absolutely amazing experience. Enjoy!

Build doesn’t work. Always out of resources. Lighting storm is still viable. You have 51% resource reduction on your weapon…either they nerfed it or it’s bugged on the live server and that’s why you’re able to do this on the ptr.

[@ukaszgornicki465]

Trample shouldn't be Savage Trample ?? I am asking mate because even tho I have built my Dudu like in the guide I struggle a lot with spirit sustain... I think that different node on skill Trample would solve it for us.

[@nipong3419]

Hello, im playing the build but im having problems with the resource, how can you keep ur spirit full all the time?

[@gabriellibaniodasilva246]

Guys who are suffering from a lack of spirit, the solution is simple, the unique Hunter's Zenith ring means that every time you kill an enemy using a tornado and after using the Trample skill, the skill will not have a colldown and this skill restores spirit. Trample still gives you the choice to restore 40 spirit every time you use it. I hope it helped you.

[@tabisjohns5726]

Should I replace the stampede or accelerating ring with Hunter zenith ?

[@gabriellibaniodasilva246]

@@tabisjohns5726 It depends on your type of gameplay, what you like most, I preferred to stick with Stampede

[@sinansahin6709]

Yeah, but why is in the video his spirit not going down?

[@gabriellibaniodasilva246]

@@sinansahin6709 This could be due to several factors, firstly the video is from PTR, so he managed to make perfect items to reach this point; second, he must have put a high spirit recovery per second in his armor, on mine I got 8 and it already makes an absurd difference, third, tibault. You can test the items, make your build, test your items.

​@@gabriellibaniodasilva246In this build what keeps you in werewolf form if it doesn't use the mad wolf glee??

[@tomekhome]

great video as always, thanks Rob !

[@sumnersmash7485]

So for the pit he is running hunter zenith to keep proc of roar for the Dmg Reduction, and his ravens size is way bigger than normal so he must use the affix where ravens size is increased as well. Didn’t see that mention anywhere in video or guide.

[@lukamateljan2778]

Yeah he half assed it a bit i was wondering why i was geting one taped. In his guide there is no roar but he uses posion creeper instead for example

[@sumnersmash7485]

@@lukamateljan2778 yeah you need roar and hunter zenith. I’m trying to avoid using nado and right now it looks like wind sheer is able to keep up if not be better we shall see.

[@MarcosBarbosa31]

I managed to make this build. have all the uniques and the aspects, and most of the status like the build but I'm finding it really weak. Still getting 1 taped a lot in pit 60. Even with zenith and roar procs, full fortified an getting one taped 😥 I might just try and make the wind sheer build.

[@marekciostek1458]

14:11 Wait this helmet don't give permament werewolf form. In the video his true form is Werewolf form. He must use unique chest armor Mad Wolf's Glee (Werewolf form is now your true form, +3 ranks to all werewolf skills). IMO it's better to give point into Iron Fur (3-6-9% Dmg Reduction) or Defensive Posture (increase Fortyfy from all sources 5-10-15%) than Digitigrade Gait (4-8-12% speed while in werewolf form). Or take Insatible Fury armor chest Werebear form is now your true form, +3 ranks to all werebear skills) Damage Reduction while fortyfy, Total Armor in werebear form.

[@furyx5234]

You dont need it be up all the time, temp roar doin that also quickshift from human to were is doin that +dmg without using werebear its always +1 faster dmg stack etc...

[@marekciostek1458]

@@furyx5234 Today I found first Temp Roar and I see how it work. All storm ability work as storm and werewolf ability at the same time. So it double buff to Tornado.

[@aname.whatdidyouexpect1877]

Bestial Rampage is a good key passive, Perfect Storm could also be decent I think. Attack Speed is really important on this build. Tibault's is probably also good, but Mad Wolf's Glee would also be a viable option as well. Thank you for the content for us Druid players!

[@aname.whatdidyouexpect1877]

Also, in the planner, I think some of the affix choices could be more min-maxxed as well (imo less investment on Spirit Per Second and using more Max Health for survivability would help a lot, although Spirit Per Second does make sense since the build is not using the Legendary Node Lust for Carnage)

[@JD-pm6wf]

Tibaults got a nerf but still good

[@aname.whatdidyouexpect1877]

Slightly more feedback in terms of min-maxing the build, you definitely could save 2 points in the Skill Tree by taking out the points used for Enhanced and Brutal Poison Creeper. The crit chance increase for Brutal Poison Creeper doesn't work against bosses, and the build already has a very high crit chance anyways. Natural Trample is probably better swapped to Savage Trample if there are some big spirit issues, or even taking the Enhanced Trample away entirely, as the Deliberating Roar generates a lot of fortify in the first place, so it is a little bit redundant. Furthermore, the passives Natural Disaster and Resonance is debated, but the common consensus is that Natural Disaster is really bad, Resonance is rather mediocre (really small multiplier, not as bad as Natural Disaster though). Taking these points and redistributing them to Heightened Senses, Elemental Exposure (maxing it out), and Iron Fur (for extra DR) would be the best choices. Finally, the Axe can be swapped to a Staff (the Neurotoxin + Toxic Claws cause all enemies that is critically struck to be crowd controlled, better damage), Wolf Boon could potentially be swapped to Bolster instead (doesn't matter too much either way, if having Spirit Issues Energize would be better). Ranks to Hurricane on the boots does not do anything (I assume it was a mistake), the Crit Damage on the gloves is probably better off with Max Life or Ranks to Tornado, and the Amulet's CDR affix can be replaced with Movement Speed, as a skill with cooldown (aside from Deliberating Roar screwups, it should have zero cd due to Hunter's Zenith ideally) is not used in the Pit. Lust for Carnage is debatable, would need some playtesting to see if sacrificing a few points on the Paragon is worth it to run Lust for Carnage to not worry about any Spirit issues.

[@goseals6]

@@aname.whatdidyouexpect1877 Tried Robs listed on d4builds and I'm having crippling spirit gen issues on bosses. The damage is there...is just hindered significantly by spirit gen. Obviously hunters ring does nothing for you on bosses and I'd recommend swapping it out entirely if you're doing boss runs. I've been using mad wolfs, but I'm strongly considering dropped it for a spirit per second chest roll.

[@89DanteGaming]

Hi rob, i'm dante . Could i review your a build, especially bash barb I was asked by my subscriber to review your bash build. Can I do a review? I'll use your video just as a reference I am sorry that my English might be awkward because I am Korean

[@bluzervic]

I wish we could take some of our current builds and use them in new seasons…. I hate having to grind all over again to make new builds. Besides time is never on my side and only once have I actually made it to level 100….

[@joungVeteran]

I have one question: what's the deal with attack speed on two-handed weapons? In this case, an axe.

[@guigofroth]

How do you became werewolf all the time?

[@rabidDAWGfan82]

Its a rare chest piece called mad wolfs glee

[@j0nnyvids]

Just started playing this game in S3 and using Druid but a lot of this went over my head 😂. Looks great and would love to build it but not sure how to do most of this

[@nickgault490]

what would you put on axe now as attack speed doest seem to be an option

[@Reverent1974]

The big question that needs to be asked is,why can druids have infinite twisters but barb get capped at 15? Why can't they just change the visibility graphics of dust devils ?

[@deanwoods52]

Or cap all builds and balance accordingly? Answer: blizzard just sucks at balance and/or don’t care. No reason 2 builds should be way way way better than all the others

[@EliteSpetzNaz]

I'm using this build but with a single hand ax and offhand, I figured with 2 items I could get a higher % aspect for extra tornadoes. Also, mad wolf's glee, for the change between wolf and trample. Also using But I'm having a hell of a time keeping resources up, still looking for tempest roar. Also using nature's fury instead of beastial rampage for the extra damage and free spells. Thoughts?

[@EliteSpetzNaz]

Sorry about the mid paragraph mix up, had to alt tab to find the names of the skills then lost my place. Lol

[@mattsullivan7202]

Im just confused, your build is not what the video footage is showing. different abilities on skill bar, also weapon you show has different stats then your planner.

[@RealDarkJsp]

The video he showed is from the PTR it seems. The build is going to act so differently in the actual season, I think we've been lied to.

I was trying a Grizzly Rage pet tornado build in S3, it's tough to mid max because so many affixs needed, hope S4 is the time for it.

[@Lemona9609]

The description of the Aspect of the rampaging werebeast is multiplication, but in actual testing in ptr, it is addition. I hope it can be fixed so that more players will use Grizzly Rage skill in more builds.But it seems I didn't see this change in the 1.4 patch. Hopefully, it will be fixed in the live

[@dani070396]

how he change to the wearwolf if he have not the skil or even in the items?

[@overlycommitted1100]

Why take Petrify over debilitating Roar? I get the crit chance is good.. but with Trample on CD, and the only form of fortify.. seems like your amulet gets more dmg if you can have fortify up more often, from DR.. Instead of the long cooldown of Petrify?

[@nuke_looter5174]

Why do you have petrify in the planner and skill tree but the video he’s using roar?

Looks like this has been nerfed since the PTR due to reduced spirit cost reduction on the 2H weapon.

Is there a way to farm the Tempest Roar pre Duriel farming? and is it even worth your time?

[@mihailivanov7988]

yes bro

[@DanielgunKim]

It may be unlikely but possible. Best route is to collect duriel mats early on in wt4 and have someone carry you that is a high lvl.

[@CBoogie91]

Certain dungeons have monsters that have a higher drop chance than others, think they are cultists, you can look it up, thats how I got tempest roar before I was able to kill duriel

[@Carrera92]

Can you start with Tornado build as season start build? Or do you need to farm Tempest Roar first before playing the build?

[@SnackeyG]

You can but you will be significantly weaker. Easier to just play something else until it drops.

[@oliverbecker8906]

What the hell am I doing wrong? Wildheart always resets completely after a few seconds. No matter what I do. Also, my damage is in the 300-700k range rather than 10kk. I know my gear isn't comparatively as upgraded as the one in the video, but the difference is way too big in my opinion. Also... why do you see Attack Speed on the weapon in the video but Maximum Life in the Planner instead? Also Envenom on the amulet?

[@omegaclarens]

I'm playing my first druid in this season 4 and I'm testing this build. I understand that until I am well equipped I will be slow and lacking in spirit, but I have a total newbie doubt: I see all the time that there are werewolf abilities and so on... but I don't see that there is any ability to become a werewolf in the build... I even see this build copied in several places (I have looked at it to compare in case I was doing it wrong or there was an error in D4builds, which I have already found in the past) and the skills in the bar do not match . Which would be recommended?

[@mrbak3rs522]

So there are a few setups for this build, the one i recommend to everyone off the bat is the maxroll build until you get familiar with the build as it hand holds the player a little more then the planner, I like his videos but I think his explanations are not to the benefit of new players and thats not to be offensive at all to him that's just the reality of content creation you can't account for everything and everyone thats why i think the maxroll guide is better at handholding because it's fully written.

[@MrFrmartin]

hmm, Might bring back the nado into my play. Haven't played for a couple seasons

[@eBmDarkwish]

So what happened exactly to this build that is not a tier S build right now, they took something out?

[@jthelander]

Wanted to ask the same... Lots of people are playing a similar build but without Hunter's Zenith, Wildheart Hunger and Tibault's Will. Any update on this build perhaps now that Season 4 is live?

[@Shin0bi_]

I seem to be struggling with my spirit, even though I have tempest roar, spirit per second and resource cost reduction. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

[@chriswhite7122]

I am new to Diablo, so I might be missing something simple; why does the building show leaving the two skill points in wind shear and enhanced wind shear once you switch to Petrify? Wouldn't it be better to use them somewhere else at that point?

[@RademacherChris]

You have to have enough points in basic to "unlock" the core section. Dumb, but that's why the points have to stay there.
