Introduction
This ferocious Druid shapeshifts into its Werebear Form to brutally charge across the battlefield and engage in pure melee combat. Quickly move around the map with Rampage and slash enemies with Swipe.
This build is able to proc Maelstroms while in Werebear Form to gain powerful buffs. Use Roar and Maul to benefit from Warcry's and Fury Leap's Trees. This is an incredibly tanky build that has access to tons of Health, Leech, Armour, Dodge and Damage Reduction.
This setup doesn't require any Uniques to function or perform. However, Items like Siphon of Anguish and Aurora's Time Glass are amazing for the build.
Overall the Swipe Werebear is a powerful build capable of completing all the content in the game. The DPS is more gear dependent than in other Druid builds, but the reward is worth the investment. It's extremely tanky, therefore perfect for Hardcore. If you are looking for a pure melee juggernaut that slays its enemies in close-quarters, this setup is perfect for you!
