A small reminder: Crucible without blessings is still very challenging for the overwhelming majority of builds, including those who can otherwise clear it with ease. It hasn’t been reduced to an all-comers speedrun contest; it’s merely played like one because it’s far more accessible that way.
We are going off-topic a bit, but: Trozan Druid is fine. I tested a straightforward setup that clears Crucible in 6:30 with 3/4b + vb as part of a TSS feedback round-up which I hope to post later this week. As you say, however, it’s not easy to play, and remains more brittle than a similarly powerful Skybreach Vindicator.
