Druid is a joke, remake druid please!

According to POE ninjia, druid has the highest population proportion, but has much less population after level 65. Druid players are struggling, and is a joke class, remake Druid please!

I watched Ben kill Jamanra with a bear faster than I have seen anyone kill Jamanra.

There might be a high learning curve. People's experiences tend to be either that the class is very strong or very weak. I don't know what's going on, but I'm wondering if the people who can't make it work don't understand the importance of dodge rolling.

Getting interrupted a lot try to dodge roll when there is more than one mob and the only way to go is either dodge roll away and then sprint way a bit ( wow really engaging game play there) or try your luck dodge that mack truck of a class model around the mobs and getting interrupted or stuck. Huge swing and a miss with the Druid. I think it will drop to low single digits on poe.ninja once the novelty wears off.

Sounds like a build and mechanical expression issue on your end.

hi.


Let's do this.

From a player like me, to a supporter like you.

Let's wait a week of the league, almost everyone is in the endgame. It's you and your conscience.

How many druids will be in the chat begging to kill Arbiter of Ash?

How many druids will be in the chat begging to get Ascension Points? Maybe then you'll understand the OP.

I played with a druid for about 20 minutes and I already saw that it was bad.

The flaw is in the passives, without vitality and max life nudes. Whoever doesn't have vitality doesn't have life. And the problem with PoE2 continues to be the passives.

Hi,
I'm also just a player? but if it helps you define yourself as some rebel, go ahead.

And in a week, with worktime I will at yellow tier, don't know what you mean with conscience? The guys begging for arbiter and ascned carries will be, like always the same people. Maybe they will play druid, but its not the class that decides their progress, but the players. the 4 th ascend just need knowledge of sekhema and about 80k dps with a 75% ress setup, every moron can do that. and arbiter in its nerfed form? 200k dps and you still need to skip the oneshots, meaning movement speed is the actual only metric. Don't bore me scrub.

There are no lifenodes on the tree anywhere, why can't a druid stack ES exactly like any other build through?

All I hear here is the same old mimimimimmi from people that follow some buildguide they don't know shit about and whine when it doesn't work out (most of time because they can't actually read)

Druid was smooth leveling for me. Look in the mirror.

I am having a ok time with it but I am playing wolf only. Have heard bear and wyvern are easy enough. Only made it to lvl 9 so far because the game just force closes every 8-10 minutes. Should be well into act 2 by now but have not even completed freythorn. Hope they fix the servers soon. Thought this was supposed to be a performance upgrade. Why is it that every time they say that it gets worse?

Only thing I've noted with Druid so far is they can't really hybrid Human + Animal.

Nearly everything they get is "While Shapeshifted" when they should be a lingering effect. They know this. There's 2 wheel that do exactly this but the other 90% are only while shapeshifted.

Most Shapeshift skills are discount versions of other skills which is actually fine. Druids aren't supposed to specialize, their power is their versatility. Or in case of this game, layering. You're forced to pick attack or spell for some reason. Maybe stats on items in late game will help compensate but it doesn't work at all so far. Esp due to the setup for elemental Infusions.

I'll keep working on it but being forced down one road or another will kill my interest.

hes right. this. period.

druid is broken and needs a "low nerf".

learn how gems and attributes works. druid is fully broken.

Okay? I'm stomping the absolute pants off the campaign with like 90% bear and pounce with low to mid (at best) gear. Stack ES and resistances like everything else. It's only been out for a couple of days, and A LOT of people are not going to have no-lifed it to endgame already so IDK what you think "post-lvl 65" populations drop-off is even indicating. Give it a week or two.
