The Druid is one of the two expansion characters introduced in Diablo Ii: Lord of Devastation. Masters of nature, the druids were originally the same people equally the barbarians until they left their tribesmen during the time of Bul-Kathos. Since and then the druids accept been living in the northern woods of Scosglen, secluding themselves more confronting from the world around them than fifty-fifty the barbarians did prior to the events of Diablo Two.

The druid combines diverse features from previous classes in the game: elemental magic similar the Sorceress, summoning skills similar the Necromancer, aura-bestowing spirits like the Paladin along with the new shape shifting skills which allow the druid to engage in close quarters gainsay.

The elemental and shapeshifting skills can be quite potent if utilized correctly by the player. Unfortunately, the summoning skills act more as a support tree, every bit a summoning druid can never achieve the same potency as a Summonancer. It is quite capable of finishing normal, merely will meet massive trouble in hell difficulty.

Builds

Virtually druid builds focus around the shape shifting skills, either as a werewolf, such equally the Werewolf Druid, or the werebear, like the Mauler. In the elemental tree, most skills are by and large underpowered and cumbersome to utilize, the burn skills more so than others. The Wind Druid is the exception however, which is quite powerful.

The summoning skills are too weak to be of any apply at college levels, even so nigh games occur in the lower levels anwyway. The spirits Oak Sage and Centre of Wolverine are always used in builds, one or the other, only the wolves are even better, and the grizzly situational merely oftentimes of a supportive function. A druid without wolves is like a paladino'due south with no aura.

Lore

In the ancient tome of the Druids, the Scéal Fada, information technology is written that Bul-Kathos, the bang-up and aboriginal king of the Barbarian tribes, had a mysterious just trusted confidant, who was only referred to as Fiacla-Géar. This human being is sometimes described as Bul-Kathos's close friend, and at other times, he is referred to as his brother. Whatever the source of their relationship, their bond was strong, and together they shared the secrets of the ancients: of the mysteries beneath the peaks of Mt. Arreat, of the venerated task put to their people to protect those mysteries, and of the prophecies regarding the night times ahead. They both agreed that, in order to fulfill their sacred trust, their people must devote themselves to nada save that accuse. However, they disagreed on exactly how the people could best exercise this. Bul-Kathos believed that only past bringing the tribes together and grooming them in strict martial discipline could the tribes faithfully concentrate on their goal for generations to come. Fiacla-Géar, on the other hand, believed that but through obtaining a spiritual oneness with the land they had sworn to protect could the people truly capeesh the importance of their role. Both agreed the other's philosophy had merit, and and so around the time Bul-Kathos united the tribes, Fiacla-Géar gathered together a minor group consisting of the tribes' greatest warrior-poets and shamans and mysteriously retreated into the forests surrounding the area known as Scosglen. There he and his people created the starting time of the Druid Colleges, huge mortar-less stone towers, covered in vines and safely hidden beneath the leafy canopies of the dumbo forests. They accept dwelt there e'er since, forging a new way of life for themselves. They created a new culture and language, cutting themselves off from their Barbarian cousins and their ways, vowing not to return to the Steppes of Mt. Arreat until the time of the Uileloscadh Mór, the final battle betwixt the men of the earth and the demons of the Burning Hells.

Here, in grooming for the impending conflict, he taught his people the Caoi Dúlra, a way of thinking that holds harmony with the natural elements of the globe, its plants and animals, as the heart of its well-nigh intrinsic behavior, for they are the personification of the very world that the Druids have sworn to protect. Not only was Caoi Dúlra the basis for their organization of values, but through its study and do, the Druids learned to bond with the natural entities of Sanctuary. This bonding was so accented that eventually they discovered how to talk to the plants and animals, and these beings taught them all the secrets of the natural world. They taught them methods to call animals from far away, how to summon sentient plants from the world, ways to change their ain forms to share the strengths of their animal cousins, fifty-fifty, to a express extent, techniques to command the weather.

At the Túr Dúlra, the greatest of the Druid Colleges, stands the magnificent oak Glór-an-Fháidha. This tree is the most revered source of the Druids guidance and teachings. Under its branches, for centuries, the Druids of Scosglen accept been honing not only their powerful arsenal of natural magic, but also the martial skills they have retained from their Barbarian forefathers. They have done this because they believe themselves to exist the globe's final line of defense force when the fourth dimension of the great conflict comes, a fourth dimension they believe is at manus. Lashing out in fury at the contempo uprising of citizenry of the Called-for Hells, and at the Leathdhiabhala, demonic corruptions of the very creatures they have vowed to defend, the Druids accept, at last, emerged from their forests, marching toward their final stand up confronting the minions of Chaos.

The Druids shun the utilize of traditional magic, or Dubhdroiacht, as they call it. They instead practise a class of magic based in their shut bail to nature. Through this intimate kinship with the world of Sanctuary, a Druid has the power to command fire, globe, and the winds. He is a friend to the animals of the wilds and can call upon them to help in his struggle. He tin can likewise employ his heightened rapport with the animals to change the shape of his own body, cartoon on the strengths and abilities of his woodland companions to better serve their cause. ^[1]
