Please help me with my Fury/rabies werewolf

Cannot decide what to wear. I like IK set and would like to wear it. Still looking for armor o:)

IS this good equipment for my druid. Would I have strong build with this:

Weapon: IK Maul + 2 Shaels
Belt: IK
Gloves: IK
Boots: IK
Ring1: Raven Frost
Ring2: Carrion Wind
Helm: Jalal's Mane Um'ed (Or should i go for somthing else)
Amulet: +2 skills, 35 % MF
Armor: Shaftsop or Duriel's Shell (than I can switch Ravne for resist, leech ring) Looking for IK but that armor is unfoundable... Or somrthing else (please don't say CoH cause I do not own Ber)...

My druid is at 71 level and look like this:
Werewolf: 10
Fury: 20
Rabies: 20
Lycanotrophy: 20
Cannot decide between Oak Sage and HoW?

Telll me what you think?

Sounds like a solid build... good physical and elemental damage should make you capable of dealing with almost every situation..Maybe consider using an upgraded Ribcracker as that weapon is totally sweet for a druid.. remember to shael it. As for the IK Maul I would probably only put 1 shael in it because the second one will only drop you from 9/5 Fury to 8/5 which isn't a lot. I'd take Duriel's shell for the resists...I would also Um your Jalals... again for resists. Maybe try to keep your Raven, since even if you have CBF it's still a very nice ring... check your attack rating before deciding. Although points are thight.. consider putting 1 point in grizzly for an okay tank, and get Oak Sage for survivability and better mercenary, and grizzly if you go for it.

How about instead of Durial's Shell you make a Duress since you have an um rune? You don't need the cbf mod from durial, the most important aspect of it.

Durial's gives you 5% more resists, 15 str and 1life/char lvl which is not modified by lycanth or oak.

Duress gives you +40% Faster Hit Recovery, +10-20% Enhanced Damage, Adds 37-133 Cold Damage, 15% Chance of Crushing Blow, 33% Chance of Open Wounds.

Hmmz ok I'll try to imagine your wealth status and shoot accordingly.

Jalals or a good Cerebus(cheap on ladder)
Duress is a good armour choice (cheapish)
1 hand - storm and 4 sox griz wep 3shaels and an eth for cheapy
Ribcracker 2 hand option
Switch psn so use plague bearer and a monarch with 4 bad psn facets (bad ones are really cheap)
gloves draculs-awsome gloves
gloves psn - trang awsome rabies gloves
belt verdungo- bad ones are cheap
boots - aldurs or sandstorms or gores all good this build
amu - highlords especially if paired with gores for the ds

My 2 penneth anyway

i dont know why he shouldnt wear the ik set
it has nice resists, good speed, 10% duel leech, high elemental dmg, crushing blow, 50 fhr, 20 dr and maybe with jalal, or cerebrus(for more leech, open wounds and a nice boooost to ar)

Ok

IK set is an option and has been for eons but if the guy wants to be set on the road for an awsome rabies//fury druid I can assure you my setup will own the IK version hands down.

I dont speak from what I think I speak from what I know. But hey its cheap enough to give a try whichever way so......

Dont forget you need a rabies setup as well which quite frankly the IK route just simply dont give

Just my 2 penneth

And what is 4 sox griz weapon?
the weapon of the grizzwold set, with 4 open sockets.

but i don't think he is very rich, and ik set isnt that expensive so if he cant afford bramble and all i think ik set with jalals is a good alternative, especially for fury

PS: offcourse to gloves no doubt about it, maybe the rabies sword and a monarch with poison facets( even bad ones) on switch for the bite of cruel poison :D

In the case of pvm, duriel's shell is good enough because of resists, str and life.

If you still lack resists though, the Smoke runeword is a good cheap choice with 50res all and some other nice mods. You certainly don't need a duress for pvm, although the cb is nice.

Ik maul should be fine pvm. Get a ribcracker and try that out too, it's a very nice weapon. As far as pvm goes, gris caddy is much too weak.

dont laugh

this is something i think would work.

i personally dont like the ikset option , not to mention you need the armor to get ml , dr which in my mind is the real goodys of the set. you have feral so you dont ever have to rely on ll items again ;).

what i would use judging your wealth -
-my fav weapon mentions is the rib cracker, even non uped i think it should be used, shaeld buriza a old fav although range of 1 is still very viable.
-ammy highlords if not 3 shapeshift ammy or all skill res rares can be pretty
-rings dual ravens, leech rings, dwarfs ( we lack res , life and absorb can help)
-belt - string/ bladebuckle/dungoes.
-boots - since pvm go with gores.
-gloves trang.dracs but if you have a fast attack and use feral you wont need. ( still awesome pvm gloves but trang helps alot in hell)
-armor , duress or reg/uped viper ( res , -magic dmg , res, skill i like this armor :) ) duress still very good both can be weighed to be the better armor.
durys is good but not as good as viper or duress.shaftstop ( 30 dr never hurt anyone)
- helm - jalals is only option here.


back to weapons i could post half of the weapons in the game and you could make them work . for pvm 2 handed i would go either rib cracker , buriza , end game tomb reaver. 1 handed theres endless combos that could work so try them out and seek what fits your build, ik yes is viable but i dont like it , didnt say its bad, i just dont like it please dont question me on this ONLY A PERSONAL OPINION.do what you like ! if you like ik by all means please use IK .

if you go 1 handed , aim for griz caddy , azure( cheap on ladder ) , lightsaber, death cleaver ,

shields - whistams// storm are my favs.

hope that helps
