How to optimize wind devil Druid

[kylegas]

Well my question is as the title says

I have this wind devil build druid and i have reached my solo limits… i can NOT beat crucible aspriant lvl 170 with this one, although i easily get there. Together with a friend who plays a sort of tanky character we can reach cruci 170 on challenger, which we havent beaten so far.

Of course i am going for Cyclone Mark which hasnt dropped in many hours

Specially interested in rings and amulets and maybe do something for survivability with skill points?

Also: am i missing skill and attribute points? Since the build calc shows me 7 points left?

Thanks a lot in advance here is the link:

Hey there,

I am working on a druid as well at the moment , but more TSS focused and totem.

Nevertheless, i changed the skills a bit around , based on a cyclone build on Nery:

[1.1.6.2] The Sparkiest Cyclone! Lightning Druid caster max damage setup

Introduction Is this time again, where I want to show you build focused on dealing huge amounts of damage, disregarding some stuff. Ever since I saw Spark of Ultos weapon buff, wanted to use it in a build. So here we go. Trozan Scepter was stripped of Wind Devil mod, so this weapon is perfect fit. Lightning was nerfed, but if you can stack big % damage you can still do an impressive build. Actually checked my idea and something similar has been done in the past. Credit to the author @x1x1x1…

Should give you better damage to switch away from Stormcaller to star pact and max the -rr skills

Furthermore some items to consider, if they are availible or maybe trade here on the forum or discord:
Fateweaver Rainment as armor, Final March as boots , Storm sheppard as belt, Amulet a more def. one since the 3 piece bonus does not give a lot of more damage.

In general, you components are where you get the most of your def. stats come from.
At the moment they are all for more offence, you need more def. since damage is very good and coming from you skills.

Devotions , take a look at the other builds , what they did and ask them why ?

Amulet a more def. one since the 3 piece bonus does not give a lot of more damage.

But the set gives me a total of plus 5 on wind devil, and since wind devil is overcaped with far more than 10 points these are points i can distribute to other skills…

Plus ather lightning deals a hell of a lot of damge without using up any skill points at all.

I might still be in the wrong, but that seems like my best option at the moment.

Other than that i havent got the items sadly XD

Then focus on the defensive components first and to redistribute your skills.

not fully optimized but you get the idea. I still havn’t looked at te devotions might want to compare them with the build i posted above.

Items can easily be traded if this is an option for you?
