Help with FireClaws/summoner?

Hello, I want to build a druid, so i've been searching the forum for the past couple hours, and i had an idea that i wanted to run by you guys and hopefully get some feedback on it.

How does this skill plan look to you/how do you think it would be?

Grizzly-20
HoW-20
fireclaws-20
firestorm-20
lycanthropy-rest of points??
prereqs(feral rage,maul,WW,WB, all the summon prereqs)-8 if i counted right
shockwave-1?(if i use werebear)

Im not sure which would be a better were-form, bear or wolf(i was guessing werebear, cause i could use shockwave) but im not sure on this part.

I would be using a "Stone" armor for the molten boulder synergy.

Do you think that this would work in hell? Would i be able to kill things effectivly? And what would you suggest for equipment?(im not super rich, so no enigma/botd type stuff, but i can get some decent stuff when needed)

thanks for any help, if i worded this any of this weird, pls tell me and ill try to explain it better.

thanks again

That could work pretty well. I'd definitely do a Werebear, with a 6-Shael Phase Blade for super fast Fire Claws (or 4 Shael and 2 IAS jewels).

Is this for PvM only?

Earthshifter could also further syn the fire claws.

thanks for the responses, and yes, i forgot to add that, this is just for pvm.

Earthshifter could also further syn the fire claws.

If you go with Earthshifter, which is kind of slow attackwise, make sure to get a +1-3 armageddon on your pelt. Having a slvl 10+ armageddon with over 40 in synergies will result in a powerful staffmod.

Well over 1400 damage while your attacking in melee.

Which weapon would you guys choose, a 6 shaeled phase blade(super fast) or a earthifter(slow but more powerful), or maybe something else? I was going to just try them both to see which i liked better, but since one requires lots of dex and no str, and the other requires lots of str and no dex, i dont think that's going to work.

Also, what are good mods to look for on equipment? since ive never played a fireclaws type druid before.

thanks again for the input
