Started my first druid...pure Fire

I'm level 12 right now with 7 in Firestorm and 4 in MB and 1 in Fissure.

I got very noobish gear on...I think an axe that does 4 to 13 damage :p and equally noobish armor and shield and other stuff.

Hence why it takes me much longer to level up with new chars than anybody else :p

So far, I've been owning nicely, compensating with each level up on weak points, such as adding to vitality when I got nearly killed a few times due to low vit. Or adding to energy when I run out of mana after 8 seconds of full casting.

From some of my builds I post on this forum, you will find out I'm the type of person who likes to go for aesthetics and "fun skills" and enjoy the game that way rather than focus on pure perfection of build.

I also am very new and don't know much about anything, I try to use this forum as a guide though.

Anyways, Fire Druid needs to max all Fire skills, but thats 100 points and at the rate I go I'll never get past level 80, so that's of course not something to count on.

So that means I have to let go of some skills. It's been a tough choice, because Armageddon is the highest damage skill of the Fire Druid, and it benefits from Volcano, Fissure and FS.

However, Volcano doesnt benefit from FS I belive. FS doesnt benefit from anything but MB and Volcano I think.

So it's a tough decision. Also, is it best to put 1 point in something and max the other 4...or have 80 points spread across 5 fire skills since they are all syns of each other?

Last but not least, the only non-fire I was thinking was 1 point Grizzly and 3 prereqs to keep people off me as I cast my hellfire around.

I was thinking maybe get 8 points to wolves...just enough to get 8 wolves...to act as bait mainly...but then I think it might be a waste as they'd be slaughtered in NM and Hell.

Honestly, with this particular build, if it makes to it to Hell fine, if not, I'd be fine with it, as I'm in it for a fun build rather than a build that can make Hell.

But if it could be fun AND make Hell...they that'd be better :p

Anyways, I was thinking maybe keep FS at level 7 and MB at level 13.

or something along those lines, thoughts?
