Fury Druid Armor

For a pure fury druid Should I use enigma and keep base strength? or use fortitude armor? Also should i max feral rage after ww lycan fury sage or is 1 point satisfactory

One more question i just thought of. How much IAS from gear do i need to get max fury speed with ebotdz? I used that attackspeed website but im still confused as to how much oias i actually need. Currently I am using only 20 from highlords but i could switch out dracs for something else if more ias is required

Okay, I'll say this once for you:

NEVER STAT AROUND ENIGMA!!

Any IAS not on the weapon won't help your attack frames.

The remaining points can go pretty much wherever you want. Do you want a secondary attack or pets?

Welcome to the world of the Wolf. Are you PvM or PvP?

All purpose advice:
1) IAS off weapon doesn't make any difference for Fury. You should get a 5 frame attack with the ebotdz.
2) Armor depends on PvP or PvM, but generally Enigma for Fury/Rabies PvP, Fort for Pure Fury PvP, and CoH for PvM.
3) Due to Druid's lousy blocking rate and interrupt effect you might want to consider a 2 handed weapon, especially for PvM.

PvM only advice:
1) Use an Upped Ribby and you can use base strength without Enigma.
2) For greater kill speed go two-handed; for greater safety go one-handed

Enigma is only used for the FRW and skills PvP, BJam. Even Fury/Rabies uses Fort more than Nigma.

Vera & Bjam got it all covered.

It's a personal prefernce on the armor you want to use. I myself havn't used fortitude on my rabie/fury wolf now for a few months.

For pvm Fortitude , Enigma , COH, & Duress are all viable armors but Fortitude & Duress i think would be best for pvm for the faster kill power.

You seem to have forgotten the str/lvl bonus. Quite handy.

Yeah but fury wolves still shouldn't build around the strength if they plan on usin other armor so theres no point in using it for the strength.

that is if you decide to use multiple armors

 

[BAMFSpecialOps]

its really a toss up imo life or dmg since def still wont be great with fort the extra lil res could come in handy, the frw/skills/str/dr% could also be very viable in pvp, my current druid is trying both out and if this is still a open topic ill tell u how he does

 

[Verashiden]

Why would you only use one armor for a Wolf? That's like only using one weapon.

 

[superjayson]

that is if you decide to use multiple armors

only caster chars should stat around enigma. and thats only because of the curse of the enigma. if you can teleport you're obviously going to want to use it.

for a wolf/bears stating around an enigma is silly cause versatility is alot better. melee chars benefit way more from using different armor in different situations. the only real benefit from stating around an enigma is a few more hundred to your life.

Private dueling doesn't allow forti

 

[BAMFSpecialOps]

and that also all depends on where u private duel at, there are many different rules. from some that say u cant use any skills that arnt true to ur class...aka life tap pallys, tele necs, beastz on abarb, wwsin, bo sorcs...then theres some that say u cant use any gear that grants u those skills, like fort with chillin armor.

 

[Verashiden]

So then you shouldn't be allowed to use Nigma since it has tele, right?

 

[MortIIs]

Tele isn't ctc or cws

 

[BAMFSpecialOps]

it all depends on where and who ur duelin with, with some of the ppl i duel with, its allowed IF you dont use tele...which obviously a wolf cant lol so its all good with that, i ment like bone necs, windys, and hdins, just tele spammin...it takes some fun out for those chars cause it makes it harder, and makes playin a wolf more fun...easier targets ^^

 

[superjayson]

yeah some people hate ctc chilling armor on fort. i think its really anal.

Different leagues, different rules. But I guess you can always make several druids

 

[superjayson]

oh i know the rules i just never understood some of them. sometimes they make little sense and just have to do with a few certain people being very anal.

 

[Verashiden]

Like the poison damage rule in Temple?
