Help with druid build

[shadowwulff]

I have recently been thinking of playing a wolf druid just for the fun of it.

I have seen a lot of builds that scream out fun, but they don't have evasion.

So I was thinking of something like -- Druid 12 / Fighter 6 / Monk 2

Sword and board for the %doublestrike.

Any help out there?

Human 32pt Lawful Neutral
9 Monk / 9 Druid / 2 Fighter

Str 16 / Dex 14 / Con 14 / Int 8 / Wis 16 / Cha 8
ups in Str
Tomes: +2 Str needed for Overwhelming Critical, Wis/Con/Dex/Int/Cha are optional but would improve the build.
Concentration max, Balance (10 should be enough), Bluff (hopefull someday Wolfattack also uses bluff..), UMD (for Weapon/Armor restricts but not needed)

lvl class / Feats
1 Druid / normal - Human / Power Attack- free
2 Monk / Monk / Stunning Fist
3 Druid / normal - Wildshape / Cleave - Wolf
4 Druid / /
5 Druid / /
6 Monk / normal - Monk / Maximize - Toughness
7 Fighter / Fighter / Great Cleave
8 Druid / Wildshape / Bear
9 Druid / normal / Quicken
10 Druid / /
11 Druid / Wildshape / Winter Wolf
12 Druid / normal / Natural Fighting
13 Fighter / Fighter / Improved Critical Bludgeon
14 Monk / Path / Inevitable Dominion: Fists of Darkness
15 Monk / normal / Natural Fighting
16 Monk / /
17 Monk / Monk / Dodge
18 Monk / normal / Natural Fighting
19 Monk / /
20 Monk / /

Epic Feats Overwhelming Critical and Precision (atm optional, i planned it for boss dps in epics/raids dunno if it is worth)

Is not exactly what you want but maybe it helps you plan it out

I like the build setup, and this looks really fun taking it like this, but im thinking more sword and board for the shield feats and doublestrike.

Also to my knowledge (correct me if im wrong) offhand things like burst don't effect your hits.

And was also thinking of using the fighter haste boost to up the attack speed (does it stack?)

Sword and board doublestrike stacks with Natural Fighting but Monk cant use Shield so a Druid/Fighter/Rogue would be better for that.
Dont forget you need 9lvl Druid to get access to Natural Fighting Feats, each gives you 6% doublestrike

Offhand Weapons and Shield Enchantments only work when they are passive boni (Seeker of Vertigo shield or weapon, Greensteel Healamp offhand or that dps Necro4 shield all nice and work as offhand), not working: on hit (like most effects are)

Wolfform has 30% increased attack animation which stacks with everything.
Fighter Haste Boost stacks with Haste but not with other Boosts Class Boosts.
If you go for Human versatility you can use Human Damage Boost & Fighter Haste at the same time, which is really nice for dpsing rednamed down fast.

While monks cannot use shields the only reason i was going to take it was for the bonus feats.
[stunning fist + other]
as soon as you pick druid up you have access to shield [even though you throw the stance away]

Rogue I don't believe gives those feats since druid would be feat starved for it.
Main reason I was only going to take 2 lvls of monk [6 for a third]

but I do like your build that is sticking to the centered monk stances.

As far as i know you need to be centered to use stunning fist.
And Stunning Fist is really the main reason for monk, the extra damage is just this good and there are even some Rednamed that can be stunned.
But hey more power to you, use what you want

atm planning a f2p wolf, so using human and rogue for it.
from a first glance, what i did put together yesterday with sleep in the eyes it looks promising.
sure it misses stunning fist and touch of death but it has human versatility, so its not that bad.
