Fighter, Watcher, tank, gets hit while druids prepare their spells. Druids do druid things. It's a pretty fun comp. The druids are glass cannons, emphasis on cannons.

So anyway, not sure how to optimize their equipment. I'm just sticking a speed weapon or two on every druid. It seems to be the best I can give casters. They wear padded armor. For a while they were wearing clothing. I'm thinking of waxing Pretty Pretty's Rib. Or hey, maybe I could wait for Azzuro to sell me so many Rimecutters I don't need to wax a weapon?

Thoughts on best uses for Helwax Mold and Durgan Steel here?

Update: I made myself a black market special rule. I'm allowed to console in any Azzuro item but it will cost me 10,000 cp. So, all my druids are now dual wielding speed weapons 😉

The speed bonus only applies to the recovery of the weapon's attacks.

 

 

 

But but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but that priest build from all those years ago said to get Unforgiven and I always thought it was because attack speed also granted action speed and now my whole life is a lie and what the postenago is this??? I've durganized that flail a dozen times.

New special rule: Black market allows refunds.

The best item to duplicate for two druids: Wildstrike Belt.

Best weapon to duplicate for two druids: Gyrd Háewanes Sténes (maybe AFTER full upgrades ) - druids do the best with spiritshifts and spells, their weapons damage is negligible, best weapon is the one which give you one more spiritshift.

Best armor for a druid-casting-quicker: Angio's Gambeson with DAoM, or Helmsman's Uniform and the other uniforms from deadfire pack. Also Starlit Garb and Gwisk Glas are good: no need to use Helwax Mold here.
