"spam those 'nados" patriarch Gebeleizis wind dr00d

as my fav class is dr00d, i wanted another baal runner to take replace my hammerdin. so after geting enought good gear i present you i started him yesterday morning.
twinked to hell from his first step in the world. so death gloves and belt (belt used until lvl 45 when Raven was avalable), 5s Hel maul and go kiling. at lvl 18 another twink with a 3s helm and shield filled with +14 max dam j00ls and the Diggler knife.
until lvl 24 was hard going, then he started what was born for spamming 'nados. until hell baal. leveling from now on was easy part. in NM at 50 and hell at 72.
antients where a breeze. i'm always lucky to have them cursed, but that's not a problem.
many, many deaths in avc V hell, my fault always as i was eager to pat him.
PI aren't a thread for him, but is a slow killing as my merc still use an Insight RW and i need to change with a good old Reaper.
Best finds Ist from hellforge and Mav Bow in Flayer Jungle(?)

I agree with you when you say windies are (almost) good for nothing until level 24. Once you hit that golden number, the world is at your mercy. PI's are rather annoying, but decrepify breaks most of them, so go go SpellSteel!

Congrats on the Pat Windie!

*scrambles off to get Stormfists to Patriarch*

 

nubex r leet! nubex r ubah!

 

Congrats :thumbsup:

I'm thinking about making a Wind druid too, so I have some questions, if you don't mind. :wink3:

1. First & Foremost; is Hurricane any good for taking out PI's? And how many PI's stay PI after decrep (Reaper's Toll, Spellsteel)
2. How useful is a lvl 12 Grizzly? Does it die often? And what about Oak Sage?
3. Is WSK running doable? Or is he more of a Baal Runner?
4. Blocking or max Vitality? I see you've gone with blocking (understandable, with SS). How's that working out? Any regrets?
5. Did you find yourself chugging a lot of mana pots? Tornado is a spammer, yes?

Anyway, congrats again...now make an untwinked one... :jig:

 

1. hurricane is good for PI on lower player setting. when i'm had to kill imunes i was in hurricane range and also sprayed Arctic Blast ( do not put more that one point in). now my merc is using Obedience thresher and with fire damage we kill pretty quicklly.

2. strange but i only use grizzy on boss end act bosses, in rest i use spirit wolfes 5 of them for crowd control. they don't die very often as they get some good BO from CtA, but even with my last windy i used wolfes.

3 WSK is very doable, but only 2 and throne room. 3 level may spawn lots of PI and if you're lucky to get OK you're dead.he is good for pits, baal running.

4. i like blocking on wind dr00ds. you always will be in melee rnge to spam tornados. but even without max block is good. i was thinking on another with max vita and stormshield for dam. red.

5. if you'll see what my merc is wearing:grin: ( Insight) not even a blue pot.
even now i'm able to spam 60 tornados until i'm low on mana and my inventory isn't even filled with mana charms.

 

A Pat in one day? I could never do that because of RL. Congrats! I might just try a wind druid then. :smiley:
