Giving credit where it's due. This build got me through leveling and to WT 3 super easy. I think I crossed over at level 44. Level 50 now and looking to change to something more enjoyable to play. The playstyle for this build is pretty boring but it completely does what you need it to do. LEVEL! Thanks so much!!
This is probably well known by now. But when i was leveling alts. I would throw a low level amulet over to my main and put the shield when damaging an elite aspect on. Gave me a 8.5k shield every 30 seconds for 10. Even at 55 its still so op
Thank you, I reworked my Druid to this, and was able to beat the Stronghold boss that I couldn't beat before. I did change the basic to Claw because I just like it better. But the poison damage and Fortify is super!
Its about ease of use, he has a UA-cam channel for these videos and if someone that looks this video up would want that then its in his interest to make that list. Its about growing your channel in a competitive environment not if someone is smart enough to play the game.
dude thanks a lot! I was stuck and dying a lot. I thought werebear form build with companions like wolves will be nice but it sucks on the begining . And this what YOu show here is a build for fresh starters , a build for entrance. FArming, then experimenting with other builds. thx a lot and have nice weekend!
Thank God I finally found a build for early game. This my first diablo game and everything I found on builds have been for late game stuff and I'm like " I don't got any of this crap "
I went with a complete poison werewolf build up to level 45. It is the easiest and straight forward build for a newbie like myself. It's very effective especially with the creeper skill maxed out. Now that I'm a lot more familiar with the game I'm going to respect my entire build around lightning or earth. I recommended that newbies try their best not to watch all these build videos. It's better just to spend time in the game figuring things out for yourself. What's the fun in copying someone else's exact build. The more you learn on your own the more you start to realise the game isn't that complicated at all. Making your own unique character is the best part.
@@the4thhorseman840 For me the games over after Hell Campaign usually, lmao. And I agree with Asmongold and Darth - the majority of players aren't going to do Uber lillith and just don't care. We want the game to be good while LEVELING and doing CAMPAIGN. Don't give two shites about seasons nor Uber.
Although I agree with you, he went over the major skills/abilities/talents that you need while providing an explanation of how the build exactly works. This should be enough for you to figure out which smaller talents in the spell tree would work/synergize best with the entire concept. A good rule of thumb is to look out for crowd control + crowd control damage, crit damage/chance, vulnerable damage, lightning damage.
It all made sense as he explained it, but when I open the game later to try it out, I won't remember all the details. It would be helpful to be able to see it written out.
It’s gotten to the point where I only subscribe to tubers who add a written progression path in the comments. I know it’s more work but it’s SO helpful.
Love the vid. I’ve been having trouble hammering out the skills I wanted to use for my Druid. Ironically, I was already on the path of your build through trial and error. This video was very informative and really clarified some things iI was doing wrong
Was having a hard time with my druid and losing the Will to go on... Until I Found this build! Juist made this build and it works already with no good gear! 🎉🎉🎉TY🎉🎉🎉
THIS WHOLE TIME I HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHAT I DID WRONG AND WHY THERE WOULDNT BE MULTIPLE LIGHTNING STRIKES, I REALISED I NEEDED TO HOLD DOWN MY ABILITY FFSSS. ps great video!
Be nice if you made a guide that went down the tree in order so we don't have to go back and forth through the video because you felt like labelling the skills first before the passives :T
No link to build builder site? It would make easier for people to follow it than opening youtube every time they forget something. It also would allow for more detailed guide, what to take level per level, stats and everything else in one place.
Dude I started my alt Druid on Saturday and playing a few hours here and there on already lvl 37. This is legit the first honest build/guide that actually hits super hard and is easy as heck to play and I’m power leveling so easy. I’m really loving this build, do you have a similar build for Tier 3+ by chance?
Here you go guys, kind of summarized: DRUID (D4) - FAST LEVELING and BUILD Storm strike (DO NOT LEVEL PAST lvl 1) + *enhanced storm strike* + *fierce storm strike* Lighting storm (it goes to lvl 5 but first unlock others) + *enhanced lighting storm* + *primal lighting storm* Blood Howl (lvl 3?) + *enhanced blood howl* + *innate blood howl* COMBO: Bood howl + Storm strike = spirit then dump energy into lighting storm Poison creeper (early for crit; lvl2?) + *brutal poison creeper* Neurotoxin (only 1 point to get to upgrade for dmg) + *Envenom* (lvl 3) Rabies (lvl 4?) + *enhanced rabies* + *natural rabies* LVL 15 - CLAWS ABILITIES/SPIRIT BOONS Completing Túr Dúlra Stronghold (and quest line) ASAP Hand spirit boons to animals (RNG) - passives Unlock everything to double down Eagle (go-to) + Scythe Talons + Avian Wrath (other boons) Gift of the stag at early for spirit (can be changed later to...) - Wariness (reduce dmg) - Energize (lucky restores spirit) - Overload (more lighting dmg) ULTIMATE Cataclysm = better with denser crowds (not quite CC but flourishes with crowds) + *prime cataclysm* + *supreme cataclysm* ASAP passives Perfect storm (more storm dmg) 1 point into Defiance (healing) + Circle of life (lvl 3) + then max-out Defiance lvl 3 Elemental exposure (vulnerability/debuff) Charge atmosphere (more lighting) Bad omen (stack with previous) Early Clarity (lvl 3) ASPECTS Offensive Aspect of inner calm (free dmg bonus bc combo) Aspect of the expectant (lightning storm stronger) - Dungeon Underoot in Túr Dúlra Stronghold (ASAP) Nighthowler aspect (crit) Defensive Aspect of the Protector (grants shields) - from the Lost Archives in the Fractured Peaks if two handed weapon or amulet it goes with bonus dmg
I wanted to level a druid from 1 to 50 w/o any assists from my higher level mains to figure out what was the best way to go at the start of S1. I understand the synergy of poisons and crit by using rabies. I found at lower levels (11ish) that hurricane was much stronger and it provides a 20% dmg reduction too. I am sure that rabies may be stronger later on but at these lower levels 1 point hurricane is really strong.
Hurrican is great, if you can get asepect that make hurrican seek out enemy, which is not likely before lvl 50 in season 1, otherwise there is a lot of RNG. So i think lightning is probably better to start season 1.
whirlwind can build spirit in large groups faster than holding down lightning strike can consume. it's very op. especially when stacked with the storm ult
@misfits118 it's working so well for me I find it a bit boring. especially with bonuses to crit damage and rate on poisoned + crowd controlled enemies. poison creeper does the job. and while you're waiting on that cool down lightning is still very powerful, and can be further boosted with the increase to damage when you have fortify. use that with the aspect that gives fortify for hitting elites and earthen bulwark and you can match the damage you will be doing to poisoned enemies. then combine it all for bosses also remember to use the slightly less charged lightning bolt, the level before max where the bolts spread out, and you can delete single targets as effectively as mobs.
I tried this build and it does not perform as good as Maxroll's leveling builds. In the video it doesn't show you the massive amount of down time and kiting if you don't kill mobs to reduce the cooldown on Blood Howl.
The only build that can be effectively utilized during the 1-50 leveling until T3 is the pulverize druid. If you look at the codex for aspects, the dungeon ones all focus on werebear form. The fortify abilities, shields, healing are all focused around leveling. It seems that elemental druid is not meant until end game (t3-t4) because all of the aspects that make it viable don't start dropping until then. From my experience and my opinion, don't touch elemental druid for early game leveling.
@@tystin_gaming tbh I’m running tornado and rabies with creeper, wolves and howl. Works pretty damn good and you aren’t waiting around for those beefy pulverise crits. Obviously some aspects make this easier but generally just stack crit and run the cool-down for companions boon on wolf spirit. Works a treat, lower numbers than pulverise but more consistent I’d say
Its cool, definitely looks fun. But to me it doesnt qualify as stormwolf build. To me the stormwolf is in werewolf form most of the time with hurricane active getting +2 shape shifting skills. Plus other things like storm skills are now werewolf skills, also shred dealing additional critical lightning damage. This build is probably stronger but I a dream of using claw/shred being a werewolf most of the time having additional storm effects to enhance it.
Everyone talks about critical strike but what %chance does it need to be to make it viable ? Apart from the temporary poison creeper strangle boost, it seems to make a lot more sense just to focus on vulnerable damage, Crowd control damage and slow and immobilize and poison. If crit chance is less than 10% in early game seems anemic
I am following this on my alt toon ( still new to D4) but some of the points cant go into things you mentioned because they are not open yet so what I have been doing is putting one more point into storm one that you mentioned that will be maxed out but shouldn't be levelled past 1 point until later just so I can access that part of the skill tree . I did the spirit boon quest with te deer is the other ones to get the rest of them or do I used those druid thing I keep finding every hwere to put points in them ? kind of a funny story my first build was a bladed rogue which for me is too squishy but I made it through the campian but its too squshy to advance so started this druid I am at level 16 and was doing one side quest where you save some druids then ther is a boss and I kept dieing I was getting annoyed and thinking druids for me are not going to be that good until I actually looked at the bosses level which is 21 and I am almost killing it with my level 15 druid following this build , now if tried that with my rogue at that level i would last maybe 10-20 seconds so I am actually very surprised at how tanking this is .
I see people asking for the skill tree and I noticed someone else coped it but is this not just a straight carbon copy of the icy veins build but with less detail?
I am so dissapointed. I was on 45 lvl with my shreed build. I find some usefull aspect for shreed build but not the essential. So i tried this build but something is wrong. I had the same skill and aspect like you but i had problem with small dmg and also lack of spirit. Its not soo smoth like in your video.
Is their a video for after lvl 50 its the only build i neen able to use without dieing but im at lvl 50 now and i carnt find the build anywere on the Internet is it only a build used for lvling
I did this build and I think something went wrong, I can not kill any boss with this build, I have level 42 and I can not even kill the Tyrant Brol in dry steps I tried a many, many times and unfortunately I can't kill bosses why ?, Mobs dying fast , spirit ending fast and i need to restore it with storm strike slowly hit by hit
Bad ass build tweaked a few things was at lvl 48 with 6 of the extra skill points from renown and a few choice legendary pcs was good through first capstone however had my ass handed to me in tier 3 lol
@@gringo7864 thats all well and good but a simple written pathway on any of the sites that other people do is much easier to follow incase you forget one and have to scroll through the vid
Just came across your video. Hopefully this is still good for the season. Getting tired of running around dropping blizzards and ice shards. Sorcerer is so monotonous.
I found this out too I made it too final boss at lvl 44 of capstone with my human lightning storm build and tried this and I have trouble in the first part I am now 46

Aspect of the expectant (lightning storm stronger) - Dungeon Underoot in Túr Dúlra Stronghold (ASAP)
Nighthowler aspect (crit)
Defensive
Aspect of the Protector (grants shields) - from the Lost Archives in the Fractured Peaks
if two handed weapon or amulet it goes with bonus dmg
Are there any early game items you would recommend getting ?
Ty! Awesome build
I wanted to level a druid from 1 to 50 w/o any assists from my higher level mains to figure out what was the best way to go at the start of S1. I understand the synergy of poisons and crit by using rabies. I found at lower levels (11ish) that hurricane was much stronger and it provides a 20% dmg reduction too. I am sure that rabies may be stronger later on but at these lower levels 1 point hurricane is really strong.
Hurrican is great, if you can get asepect that make hurrican seek out enemy, which is not likely before lvl 50 in season 1, otherwise there is a lot of RNG. So i think lightning is probably better to start season 1.
whirlwind can build spirit in large groups faster than holding down lightning strike can consume. it's very op. especially when stacked with the storm ult
So whirlwind instead of blood howl?
@@aliacedavis8137 hurricane+perfect storm
Thanks, I dropped rabies and picked this up and it feels much better.
@misfits118 it's working so well for me I find it a bit boring.
especially with bonuses to crit damage and rate on poisoned + crowd controlled enemies. poison creeper does the job.
and while you're waiting on that cool down lightning is still very powerful, and can be further boosted with the increase to damage when you have fortify. use that with the aspect that gives fortify for hitting elites and earthen bulwark and you can match the damage you will be doing to poisoned enemies.
then combine it all for bosses
also remember to use the slightly less charged lightning bolt, the level before max where the bolts spread out, and you can delete single targets as effectively as mobs.
I tried this build and it does not perform as good as Maxroll's leveling builds. In the video it doesn't show you the massive amount of down time and kiting if you don't kill mobs to reduce the cooldown on Blood Howl.
This is the exact issue I had with it. Satisfying to play until this happens.
yep this build is not good. its what I did myself without even looking at this guide and its very good for groups but not good for bosses at all
Which builds? I have tried all the maxxroll ones and they are tedious to level.
The only build that can be effectively utilized during the 1-50 leveling until T3 is the pulverize druid. If you look at the codex for aspects, the dungeon ones all focus on werebear form. The fortify abilities, shields, healing are all focused around leveling. It seems that elemental druid is not meant until end game (t3-t4) because all of the aspects that make it viable don't start dropping until then. From my experience and my opinion, don't touch elemental druid for early game leveling.
@@tystin_gaming tbh I’m running tornado and rabies with creeper, wolves and howl.
Works pretty damn good and you aren’t waiting around for those beefy pulverise crits.
Obviously some aspects make this easier but generally just stack crit and run the cool-down for companions boon on wolf spirit. Works a treat, lower numbers than pulverise but more consistent I’d say
Fextralife has almost the exact same build on their Diablo 4 wiki - video and written guide if wanted
What are you recommendations on gems for this build?
Holy light hellz Batman. I was so under powered it wasn’t funny. Storm wolve for the win!!
Finally a Druid build !!!!!!!!!!!! Sweet Fruity Tutty
Isn’t this Fextralife’s Stormclaw build? They released a video on it 5 days before you.
Sick guide. 👌🏽
Can you show me what skill should I pick at each level?
Its cool, definitely looks fun. But to me it doesnt qualify as stormwolf build. To me the stormwolf is in werewolf form most of the time with hurricane active getting +2 shape shifting skills. Plus other things like storm skills are now werewolf skills, also shred dealing additional critical lightning damage. This build is probably stronger but I a dream of using claw/shred being a werewolf most of the time having additional storm effects to enhance it.
do you recommend this for leveling 1-50? 20 right now
This build slays bro
Everyone talks about critical strike but what %chance does it need to be to make it viable ? Apart from the temporary poison creeper strangle boost, it seems to make a lot more sense just to focus on vulnerable damage, Crowd control damage and slow and immobilize and poison. If crit chance is less than 10% in early game seems anemic
no skill list or build calculator? this looks cool but those would be very helpful
Don’t suppose we could get a written skill order guide?
Half these “leveling” builds don’t because then they don’t get hits in their videos
Where is the bulid website you use for the druid lvling guide? :)
Is there a chance to re farm for a aspect? I think I sold the legendary that came with aspect of the expectant from tul dura.
Link skill build, items, specialty?
I am following this on my alt toon ( still new to D4) but some of the points cant go into things you mentioned because they are not open yet so what I have been doing is putting one more point into storm one that you mentioned that will be maxed out but shouldn't be levelled past 1 point until later just so I can access that part of the skill tree .
I did the spirit boon quest with te deer is the other ones to get the rest of them or do I used those druid thing I keep finding every hwere to put points in them ?
kind of a funny story my first build was a bladed rogue which for me is too squishy but I made it through the campian but its too squshy to advance so started this druid I am at level 16 and was doing one side quest where you save some druids then ther is a boss and I kept dieing I was getting annoyed and thinking druids for me are not going to be that good until I actually looked at the bosses level which is 21 and I am almost killing it with my level 15 druid following this build , now if tried that with my rogue at that level i would last maybe 10-20 seconds so I am actually very surprised at how tanking this is .
Which spirit boons do I need to get???
What stats we should level up on paragon for this build?
I see people asking for the skill tree and I noticed someone else coped it but is this not just a straight carbon copy of the icy veins build but with less detail?
Do you have the icy vein build link?
You just saved me from rage quitting to another class. Bless you sir.
How sad
Would you trade any for hurricane maybe?
Real ones recognise the thumbnail💪
I am so dissapointed. I was on 45 lvl with my shreed build. I find some usefull aspect for shreed build but not the essential. So i tried this build but something is wrong. I had the same skill and aspect like you but i had problem with small dmg and also lack of spirit. Its not soo smoth like in your video.
Is their a video for after lvl 50 its the only build i neen able to use without dieing but im at lvl 50 now and i carnt find the build anywere on the Internet is it only a build used for lvling
How does this work for single target (bosses)? I found lighting storm lacking for this. Nevertheless this is an interesting build
same. this build sucks for that. I had to switch to a wolf/bear hybrid to handle single bosses with that barley had minions to get health globes from
It does ok on bosses where you can stand still for a couple seconds, it sucks for bosses where you can't stop moving.
patience is needed if youre ST esp with annoying bosses that requires mobility. but still got me through 2 phases of lilith.
Video gameplay is a caster. Can you not level as a werewolf? How soon are you able to transform?
verry nice, gz! but please can u share a link build? tnx!
Can you upload your paragon board
I did this build and I think something went wrong, I can not kill any boss with this build, I have level 42 and I can not even kill the Tyrant Brol in dry steps I tried a many, many times and unfortunately I can't kill bosses why ?, Mobs dying fast , spirit ending fast and i need to restore it with storm strike slowly hit by hit
Nice video guide, but not including a link to the build is a negative.
Bad ass build tweaked a few things was at lvl 48 with 6 of the extra skill points from renown and a few choice legendary pcs was good through first capstone however had my ass handed to me in tier 3 lol
Thank you
Hey, can you make this into a build on a build website so we can see exactly where to put talent points?
Can we get a 50-100 build please 🙏
Having issues at bosses.
We cant stay still casting freely.
We cant cc bosses.
I had big issues
was trying to beef up lightning storm and this is perfect i will put this together when i get home for sure!!
My lightning storm only casts on bolt. This looks like you’re getting multiple lightning strikes. How are you doing this?
It's a channeled skill that you have to hold to acquire more bolts.
Isn't this the fextralife stormwolf level build?
Skill tree would be nice, can you put it up please ?
thank u
a pathway of the skills would be amazing
Watch the video again. He literaly names them all
@@gringo7864 thats all well and good but a simple written pathway on any of the sites that other people do is much easier to follow incase you forget one and have to scroll through the vid
Just came across your video. Hopefully this is still good for the season. Getting tired of running around dropping blizzards and ice shards. Sorcerer is so monotonous.
I just tried this build on lev 42… and it’s not that good vs what I was using. Pulverized build was much better. It’s more tanky.
I found this out too I made it too final boss at lvl 44 of capstone with my human lightning storm build and tried this and I have trouble in the first part I am now 46
Where can you get aspect of inner calm?
Where is the tree ?
Your not showing the skill tree to show where your points go how can we possibly know what points to use
I replaced Rabies with Bulwark and did some other changers for higher Tier survivavbility.
excuse me sir I've follwed this build but how do I get those projectiles that are shooting out from attacks ?
It’s a buff from one of those concrete looking structures you find in game. It’s not part of the build.
Im struggeling with this build
