I am literally just starting, and my friends that I’m gonna play with are telling me “pick anything but a druid, they’re bad”. But then I see articles out there saying that Druids are one of the most powerful at end game. Any thoughts from some of you that have been playing?
I would solidly rank druid as one of the top five classes you could play in Diablo 4.
I wanted to play as a bear, so I am playing as a druid, simple as. Am I weak, am I strong? How the hell should I know, I haven’t played a different class yet! Just enjoying the game as it is and it’s brilliant.
Level 62 druid here.
- Fuck the meta, play what you enjoy.
- Druid can handle fine. I’m running a no shapeshift storm build and having a great time.
I’m lv 72 now. Am loving my Landslide, Petrify, Trample build.
Don’t be me tho, I didn’t do class quest to unlock the Druid Passive boons till Lv ~37. Granted by then I at least had enough of the items to unlock every one of them.
You want your most OP essence on your weapon, and the second best one on your amulet as they give bonuses to them.
The essences you get from dungeons have the lowest stats, if you find gear with better essence rolls/% make sure to extract it for later.
Won’t link all my aspects, but the landslide one and the trample one are what make it golden
All jive well together for the big pew pews.
Feel like an earth bender or earth/rock ninja, but with angry-bear-bringing the landslide spamms.

It doesn’t help that apparently that quest is locked behind a stronghold. I just reached that point, hoping with the benefits of being a 2nd character I’ll be able to blast through it at those low levels.
I’m gonna potentially disagree with one thing: You should maybe avoid putting your best aspect on your weapon while still in the earlyish levels. Your weapon should be upgraded regularly when you find ones that do more damage, so reapplying aspects whenever you get a new weapon can be very expensive.
Don’t know if I agree with the essence on the weapons, you should upgrade your weapon as often as possible since they define where your damage comes from afaik.
Nothing annoys me more than powergamers giving out unsolicited advice. Play what you want to play, barring DM veto.
Gonna be a strange day when your DM vetos your Diablo class…
