In Diablo IV we have several classes that we can create at will and choicein this case we are going to see how to get the maximum potential to Druid. We explain all the main features and bonuses that the class hasin addition to all skills and best builds to progress in the best way with it.
General characteristics of the Druid
We leave you below with all the information you need to know about the druid class.

They control the power of the earth, the wind, and the storm, unleashing the wrath of nature with devastating effect.Attack type: Melee (and sometimes ranged).Resource: Spirit.Skill branches: basic, main, defensive, companion, wrath, ultimate.Class Bonuses:Each point of will will increase Ability Damage by 0.1%Each point of intelligence will increase spirit resource generation by 0.1%Each point of dexterity will increase Critical Strike Chance by 0.02%
Advantages and disadvantages of the class
Let’s highlight to start your main strengths and advantages that we can find in the class:
We can play at ease in different waysfocusing our damage more and skills in melee, defensive, more offensive y combine with more or less elemental magicFor this reason, we have a wide variety of animal transformations or elemental attacks, so we have a great distinction of styles and situations that we can adapt to in battle. Can apply mass control states or enhancers for us too.This class has very good stamina and resistances for various types of damage, even at the group level, it can always be a very useful class.
Next you have the disadvantages and weakest points of the class:
It’s a class very slow startupit will take time to reach the point of progress and optimal skills to really get a good use out of it.It has many skills and styles to considerthis makes it complex until we get a set that we really like and we feel comfortable with it. Getting certain attributes or affixes to improve how class is also somewhat chaotic if we are not sure which way to go.
best builds
We arrived at the section where we discovered what is the best we can play with the Druidthe best builds, the key skills And what are the main attributes that we will look for for our equipment in general.
Priority stats for builds: Will and Intelligence.Most wanted attributes in objects: damage, ability damage, crit chance, crit damage, and health.
For this class we have two very viable and good options, it depends on your play style. The best builds are focused on the bear form, and combine it with elemental magic of different types
