View Full Version : 1-20 Build for Druid Life?

I know pretty much nothing about druids, so I'm seeking advice on a build that is strong during it's heroic levels for a fast 1-20 Druid life. I don't mind going caster or melee, but I gotta admit I am pretty curious about the whole wolf thing.

Any suggestions on builds?

6 druid Quicken
7 druid
8 druid
9 wizard Empower Healing, (W) Spell focus : Evocation
10 druid
11 druid
12 druid I Twf
13 druid
14 druid
15 druid Improved Crit Bludgeoning
16 druid
17 druid
18 druid G TWF
19 druid
20 monk (M) Stunning fist
21 epic Great spell Focus Evocation
24 epic Epic Spell focus Evocation
26 Perfect TWF
27 Mental Toughness (or empower, or heighten)
28 Epic Tactics

That's a good casting based leveling order. If you prefer to go a melee route, google pastlifenmo.

i played this build, and i easily ran it to 28 to also get an epic tr. i switched out natural fighting and took monk stances.

its mainly a fighter, with some nice spells as backup. earthquake is great. if its your first druid, i recommend a small splash so you can see what Druid has to offer. this build lets you learn what all the spells do, without relying on them to much. the pet can come in handy which is part of what the druid is about, summons and pets and hires. with this build, trapping, Monk for stances, and evasion, make some levels a lot easier. stunning fist works reliably from 1-20. but for the most part, you kill everything to fast in the early levels for it to be worth while.

wolf builds with monk splash's do pretty well especially 1-20. with the higher level spells you get regen, and heal, which really help with survivability. there are alot of druid wolf builds, probably some better then this one. (this one is from before the enhancement pass)

these are some other links. haven't tried those, but they all have some interesting input. most say that you need to decide either fighter, or caster, and cant really do both.
there is also a 8/6/6 druid/fighter/monk. which is more fighter focused. you lose spells, but you defiantly notice a damage output change.

i have not done a caster focused druid yet. (i would like to still) i heard the work very well.
