Today, we have the Icy Shadow version 2. I’ve been having so much fun with this build and I’ve made a few changes that really make this build stand out.
We’ll be going over skills, play style, the skill tree, gear, and the Paragon Board.
The skills we’ll be using are Shadowstep, Dash, Twisting Blades, Shadow Imbuement, Smoke Grenade and Puncture with Combo Points as our specialization.
Smoke Grenade got a buff recently, going from 15% to 20% damage to enemies affected by it. And with the use of some aspects, this becomes an absolutely insane utility skill. Not only does it allow us to daze, it will freeze and give us a 43% damage multi that we can have up most of the time.
This build is on the squishier side. We want to take advantage of our Crowd Control and our Mobility to avoid getting hit too much. We do take up some defensive aspect slots with some utility aspects. But trust me, it is worth it.
When you’re diving into a large pack of Elites, use Dash and instantly drop your Smoke Grenade to daze and freeze, giving you plenty of time to finish them off. This way you can easily get a lot of Diablo 4 Gold.
Use Shadow Step when you get Crowd Control. Use Shadow Imbuement whenever it’s up. And use Dash to engage, reposition, and move around the map quickly.
Onto our skill tree, starting off with Puncture. Pick up Fundamental Puncture.
Max out Twisting Blades with Advanced Twisting Blades.
Siphoning Strikes did get a nerf recently, making it on a Lucky Hit, instead of always on Critical Strikes. So, our sustain has gone down tremendously because of that. But because of how much Crowd Control we have in this build, it does make up for it.
Pick up Shadow Step with Disciplined Shadow Step.
Then we should pick up Weapon Mastery and then Dash with Methodical Dash.
Pick up Smoke Grenade with Countering Smoke Grenade, giving us huge cooldown decreases and having that up more often for more dazes and freezes.
We should put one point into Exploit and then three points into Malice.
We should put one into Shadow Imbuement with Mixed Shadow Imbuement.
Then, we should put three points into Precision Imbuement, three points into Frigid Finesse.
Go ahead and max out Alchemist’s Fortune, Second Wind, Innervation, Impetus and Haste.
Finally, put one point into Adrenaline Rush and Close Quarters Combat.
Now, I do want to note that you can pick up Victimize here. It is fun to play with, but Close Quarters Combat just feels better with the Attack Speed and that 30% increased damage to Crowd Control because we’re always crowd controlling. It’s just nice to have that up.

Onto gear, stat priority, and aspects, start off with our armor.
For our helmet, go for Life, Armor percent, Cooldown Reduction, and either ranks to Shadow Imbuement or Basic Skill Attack Speed.
For our aspect, we’re using Frostbitten, giving us up to 25% increased Critical Strike Damage to Frozen enemies. And on top of that, it synergizes with Smoke Grenade, allowing it to also instantly freeze our targets. If you want to be more tanky, you can definitely swap Frostbitten out for Aspect of Might for some more damage reduction.
For our chestplate, look for Life, Damage Reduction, Damage Reduction from Close, and Armor percent with the Aspect of Explosive Verve. This just amplifies our Smoke Grenade and with the Lucky Hit cooldown, we have this Crowd Control Damage stem up very often.
For our gloves, get rings to Twisting Blades, Critical Strike Chance, Attack Speed and Lucky Hit chance. You can also go for Critical Strike Damage with Imbued Skills. But we don’t get much Lucky Hit anywhere else and we’re going to be using Icy Alchemist for the aspect. This got buffed in Season 1, giving us 25% chill instead of 20%, so we freeze a lot faster and more often.
For our pants, we want Life, Damage Reduction, Damage Reduction from Close, and Armor percent with the Aspect of Disobedience.
For our boots, we’re using Penitent Greaves. This is how we apply chill in order for Icy Alchemist to work.
For our weapons on our crossbow, we want Critical Strike Damage, Vulnerable Damage, Dexterity, and Core Skill Damage with, of course, Bladedancer’s Aspect. By the way, In Diablo 4, some Diablo 4 Items are very difficult to obtain. If you encounter such difficulties, you may wish to visit D4gold.com. There will be professional players to help you.
For our weapons on one hand, we have Condemnation. The extra 20% to 40% multi-on Combo Points just can’t be beat here. And on the other hand, I am currently using Asheara’s Khanjar. The amount of Attack Speed and Lucky Hit we get from this weapon allows us to proc Icy Alchemist more often. And with more Attack Speed, we get more activations out of the imbuement heart.
With the nerf took Critical Strike Damage on swords, giving up 14% Critical Strike Damage for 30% close and more Attack Speed makes daggers a little better in my opinion.
So, if you are not wanting to use Asheara’s Khanjar, go ahead and pick up a dagger with Critical Strike Damage, Vulnerable Damage, Dexterity, Core Skill Damage and the Edgemaster’s Aspect. You will hit a lot harder with this, but you also lose a lot of Attack Speed.
Lastly, I want to talk about jewelry.
For our amulet, we need to have cooldown reduction and damage reduction. For our third roll, we have some options. Frigid Finesse is the best for clear and Malice is a good all-rounder for both clear and boss damage. And for the last roll, you want either Dexterity percent, Armor percent, or Movement Speed, depending on what you feel you’re lacking.
For the aspect, we’re using Aspect of Expectant for that 15 to 30% increased damage when we’re alternating between Puncture and Twisting Blades.
As for our rings, we want Life, Critical Strike Damage, Crit Strike Chance and Vulnerable Damage.
For the aspects with one ring, we want Accelerating Aspect and the other with the Aspect of Umbral for energy sustain. I would also recommend getting a third ring with Energizing Aspect. It doesn’t have to be perfect by any means, but our energy sustain feels really bad when we’re fighting bosses without it.
For our gems, we want Rubies in our armor and Emeralds in our weapons.
At the moment, having the extra life feels better than running Topaz and with Shadow Step up so often, Topaz doesn’t feel super needed right now. And with Emeralds in our weapon, we have the extra Critical Strike Damage against Vulnerable Damage.
For the socket colors for the new Malignant Hearts, we want a Vicious, a Brutal and your last socket can be any color.
We’ll be using Tempting Fate for the huge crit damage boost. We’ll be using Revenge for the damage suppressed. This helps our survivability a lot and makes Smoke Grenade look super cool when we cast it. Lastly, we’ll be using the Vile Apothecary. With up to a 15% chance to attack with all imbuements and our insane attack speed, we can get Icy Alchemist to proc pretty reliably without even having Shadow Imbuement up.
Lastly, we have our Paragon Boards.
The glyphs that we’re using are Closer, Combat, Chip, Turf, Control, and Exploit.
The legendary nodes that we pick up are Tricks of the Trade, Cheap Shot and Deadly Ambush. This is the reason why we Aspect of Explosive Verve on our chestplate. So, our Smoke Grenade also counts as a trap skill, giving us the 20% from Smoke Grenade and on top of that giving us another 22 and a half percent increase to our Critical Strike Damage, allowing Smoke Grenade to just be an insane damage stem.
Other than that, we pick up some Rare and Magic nodes around the board, giving us even more Critical Strike Damage and Vulnerable Damage.
Although some people always complain that Diablo 4’s seasonal content lacks creativity, for loyal players, it is also fun to repeatedly explore Sanctuary with the help of different seasonal powers.
In Season 9, you can get Diablo 4 gold and seasonal power Horadric Spells by working hard to clear new dungeons, and use them to strengthen yourself to deal with more difficult content. But this also requires you to invest a lot of time and experience.
In order to allow you to get more items through other easy ways while doing this more difficult Season 9 resource farming, Diablo 4 recently launched a new event Gift of the Tree based on Tree of Whispers.
So what benefits can this event bring, and how to participate? We will introduce it to you.
Gift of the Tree officially started around July 16 (the exact time varies depending on your time zone) and will last until 1pm on the 22nd, which is not a long time. So if you want to make full use of it, you must hurry up.
As a buff event, Gift of the Tree mainly allows you to get an extra Chaos Cache when you complete Tree of Whispers bounty task and hand in a group of ten Grim Favors to exchange for random cache rewards, so as to get more loot.
This buff effect not only looks sacred in appearance - a white tree, but also makes you feel “blessed by God” in practice, because Chaos Cache can open any type of item, whether it is ordinary gold or rare Ancestral items.
It is worth noting that there is a player achievement in Diablo 4 that can be completed, which is Chaotic Whispers achievement that can be unlocked by obtaining 10 Chaos Caches. If you haven’t got it yet, Gift of the Tree period is definitely the best time.
In fact, the completion of this event is completely based on Tree of Whispers event, so your main task is to complete the bounty tasks issued by Tree of Whispers step by step, or Whispers.
When you complete the main campaign and interacting with Tree in Hawezar, you can unlock one of the endgame mechanisms, Tree of Whispers. After that, it will release a series of scattered Whispers through the map. The specific task types include:
Generally speaking, the difficulty of these quests is not too high. You will get Grim Favors as a reward for each completed Whisper. When you collect 10, you can bring them back to Tree of Whispers or Raven of the Tree and choose one of the three caches as the final reward.
All Whispers are identified on the map by icons with pink, light pink, and red borders. The darker the color, the more Grim Favors you’ll get from completing that bounty (and the harder it will be, of course):
Since Whispers are scattered all over the map, it’s likely that you’ll complete some of them while completing other quests or challenges, such as killing a certain number of enemies in a certain area.
After that, it’s best to group quests in the same area together as a whole, depending on the requirements of the remaining Whispers, and complete them in a specific time period to improve efficiency.
If your character is powerful enough that you decide to farm quests that provide more Grim Favors, you can complete Helltides directly. The area of this event is not only densely populated with enemies, but also has the best Whispers quest: Defeat Blood Maiden.
The three regular Tree of Whispers caches only give you specific types of gear rewards, but Chaos Cache provided by Gift of the Tree is universal, containing random items from other reward caches, and may even contain rare unique and mythic pieces of gear.

The significance of this event is not only to bring new vitality and rewards to Season 9, but more importantly, to make the regular endgame event of Tree of Whispers attract your attention again, and to avoid the imbalance of participation in different game events as much as possible.
And if you want to focus on farming materials or unique items, Gift of the Tree also provides you with an easier way than clearing dungeons. Especially if you are a new player, you will have the opportunity to complete early resource accumulation faster.
The above is the main information about the participation of Gift of the Tree and the rewards you can get. If you don’t want to miss it, log in to the game and complete the task immediately!
Gold is the most basic and important currency resource in Diablo 4. Whether you are in the early game or the endgame stage, whether you want to exchange for other items or repair damaged gear, you can’t do without it.
Therefore, when you enter a new Diablo 4 season, in addition to getting familiar with the new content as soon as possible, another important task is to start farming Diablo 4 gold (and XP), and there is no upper limit, the more the better.
However, it is worth noting that although there are many ways to get gold, it has always been difficult to say which one is the best gold farming channel until Season 9 brings you Escalating Nightmares.
Escalating Nightmares, also known as Nightmare Dungeon Escalations, is an “upgraded version” of the traditional Nightmare Dungeon launched in Season 9 based on Diablo 4.
This dungeon is a combination of three normal Nightmare Dungeons. Although the overall combat mode is similar to the normal version, it brings a new boss, Astaroth, and it can only be unlocked by obtaining Escalation Sigils.
In addition, each of the three dungeons will have their own positive and negative affixes, just like the normal Nightmare Dungeons, but all affixes will stack as you progress. This means that you will carry the affixes of the previous dungeon into the next dungeon.
After defeating the boss of each Escalating Nightmares built-in dungeon, you will see a special pillar in the arena, which will teleport you to the next built-in dungeon and show you all the affixes that will work in the next dungeon.
Of all Nightmare Dungeon affixes that can be unlocked, the most important one is of course Horadric Strongrooms, because carrying it into the dungeon will have a chance to farm the high-rarity Arcana in Season 9 seasonal power Horadric Spells.
But in fact, the appearance of more Horadric affixes is also the reason why Season 9 provides the best gold farming method, because the positive effect brought by Horadric Gold Reserve affix can make you get tons of Diablo 4 gold in a short time!
When you fight in Escalating Nightmares after obtaining this affix, it will generate more gold chests for you than fighting in regular Nightmare Dungeons to quickly complete gold farming while exploring new dungeons and farming Horadric Spells.
It is worth noting that Season 9 also added another regular affix, Gold Find, which works when you get or find gold in any way. The amount of gold you get in the end will increase by 30%. If the two affixes can be used together, the effect will definitely surprise you!
Of course, even with the help of affixes, in order to successfully take away all the gold you get, you must complete all Nightmare Dungeon Escalations. If you fail due to character death in the middle of the process, everything will become a waste of talk.
Most of the enemies in Escalating Nightmares are not difficult to deal with, as long as you make sure your abilities and gear strength are equal to the current game difficulty level. The real danger is the final boss Astaroth in Torment 1+.
In order to complete this difficult boss battle, in addition to equipping the best gear possible, you also need to pay attention to the following guidelines:
While activating relevant affixes and clearing Escalating Nightmares should be your primary gold farming method in Season 9, other reliable sources should not be ignored. After all, the more gold, the better in the game.
If you happen to be in urgent need of gold, just refresh and complete Nightmare Dungeon Escalations, and start farming after trying your best to get gold-related affixes! I wish you success!
Although Barbarian’s performance was average among all classes when Season 9 was first launched, after the exclusive enhancements brought by patch 2.3.1, Barbarian can now be one of the first choices for your class to create a new character in S9.
However, if you plan to play a new character at this time, you will have nearly half a month less time to upgrade and earn Diablo 4 gold than others, so it is best to choose a Barbarian leveling build that is reliable enough to pass the time before reaching level 60.
Based on this, we will recommend and introduce Upheaval Barbarian Build to help you complete the upgrade based on Barbarian’s performance after the release of patch 2.3.1.
Both Barbarian class itself and most of the builds related to it are good at creating chaos through brute force, thereby interrupting the enemy’s attack and hitting back.
As for Upheaval Barbarian Build, it mainly relies on the main skill Upheaval to output high AOE damage in combat to quickly kill groups of enemies, and does not rely on gear or legendary aspects, which is suitable for new Diablo 4 players.
In fact, you can continue to strengthen Upheaval skill to make the entire build stronger to cope with the difficulty of early Torment outside the upgrade process. And in Season 9, this build is very suitable for clearing Horadric Strongroom.
Upheaval Barbarian Build mainly outputs damage through several key Barbarian active skills and allows you to switch core damage skills according to the enemy type and the situation.
Generally speaking, Upheaval is the main damage skill of this build. On this basis, using Frenzy and Death Blow as needed can further improve your combat damage output.
If you encounter a more difficult enemy and want to output higher damage to deal with the opponent as soon as possible, you can also consider using Ground Stomp skill after Tactical upgrade.
When using this build, you first need to try your best to gather enemies, then work hard to accumulate Fury, and cast Upheaval through 2H Bludgeoning weapons, causing initial large amounts of damage with the help of passive skills and attributes.
It is worth noting that 2H Slashing weapons are better when using Death Blow, or you can replace Death Blow with War Cry to get more damage gains, and Challenging Shout can improve your survivability.
Of course, in order to improve the effectiveness of these active skills, passive skills are also indispensable. For this, you need to pay attention to the distribution of passive skill points:
The combination of the above active and passive skills should maximize the damage output of the entire build and the generation of Fury you need.
In addition, Furious Impulse can increase Fury generation, Invigorating Fury can help you maintain a good health state, and skills such as Thick Skin and Defensive Stance can help improve your survivability.
Besides the types of weapons that are suitable for different active skills mentioned above,2H Mace is actually one of the best weapons for this build. It can bring Arsenal Expertise bonus to maximize the generation of Fury required for Frenzy.
This way, when you use Unbridled Fury, you can accumulate as much Fury as possible when casting Upheaval to maximize its damage through passive skills and legendary aspects.
Or you can choose a two-handed axe as your primary weapon. On this basis, change Ground Stomp’s upgrade from Strategic to Tactical, and allocates some skill points of Wrath of the Berserker to Pressure Point to gain additional Vulnerable damage.
No matter which build you craft or utilize in any Diablo 4 season, you should try to integrate the season-specific power into it as much as possible to immerse yourself in the characteristics of the current season and get unique benefits.
Season 9’s seasonal power is Horadric Spells. For Upheaval Barbarian Build, the choice of Horadric Spells is divided into early and late stages.
The choice of spells in the early stage has little effect, but Thunderous Particle is better with Celestial Surge. This is because Celestial Surge can gather enemies together faster in battle so that you can quickly eliminate them with your main skill, Upheaval.
As for the late Horadric Spells combination, if you plan to use Barbarian build based on Upheaval for a long time, Catalyst and Infusion recommend Smoldering Ember and Astral Pillar, which can gather enemies and make them vulnerable.
As for the late Arcanas, the following three should be the best choices:
While this build doesn’t rely too much on gear for damage, if you can farm the right items, you’ll be able to take the build to the next level. For example, the following legendary aspects will help maximize the build’s damage:
In addition, some special unique items can also provide additional bonuses to the build and related skills based on their own characteristics to improve combat efficiency:
The above is what we bring to you about the plan to upgrade as quickly as possible in Season 9 craft Upheaval Barbarian Build. If you plan to experience Barbarian, it should be helpful to you!
If you are a die-hard Diablo 4 player, you will know that there are a variety of items in the game that can benefit you in different ways. Some of them are gear that can be upgraded and utilized directly after obtaining, and some are more special items.
It is worth noting that when Diablo 4 is updated with a season, sometimes new buff items are added for the new season. In Season 9, this item is undoubtedly Horadric Jewels.
But it should be noted that Horadric Jewels cannot be obtained directly through combat drops like Diablo 4 gold or unique items. Instead, you need to farm Horadric Phials and gem fragments separately and craft them to obtain them.
Among them, Horadric Phials has been introduced to you in other guides and is also a seasonal item in Season 9, but gem fragments are a regular Diablo 4 material that has existed for a long time.
In fact, before Season 9, although gem fragments can also provide you with attribute bonuses by being processed into gems, they are not so eye-catching compared to the role of other powerful gear. Now the emergence of Horadric Jewels has obviously changed this situation.
Based on this, we will explain to you in detail why you should increase your efforts to farm gem fragments in Season 9, as well as the relevant farming methods.
Generally speaking, after finding a jeweler in Diablo 4, you can consume existing gem fragments to craft gems, and then embed them into gear according to the corresponding gear type of the gem to obtain benefits. And the higher the gem level, the better the benefit provided.
But the tricky thing is that if you want to craft the highest level of gems, you need to collect 100,000 fragments of a specific type! This is undoubtedly a long and torturous farming process.
Although low-level gems also have a certain role, if you want to unlock new levels for all low-level gems embedded in all gear later, you also need to consume a lot of materials and gold. Therefore, you will not choose gems or gem fragments as the first choice when looking for buff items.
In order to avoid gem fragments being ignored as much as possible, other seasonal jewelry that can be crafted and inlaid with gem fragments has been introduced in other seasons of Diablo 4, such as Occult Gems in S7, but it seems that none of them are as good as S9 Horadric Jewels.
First, to unlock Horadric Jewels in Season 9, you need to complete Horadric Strongrooms in Torment 1+ difficulties to obtain Horadric Tomes, and then consume it at Wayfinders to learn the crafting method of Horadric Jewels.
Next, you need to get enough Horadric Phials as the first material for crafting Horadric Jewels through the following methods:
The second Horadric Jewels crafting material is gem fragments, and we will introduce you to its specific acquisition method later. Now you need to know that crafting a Horadric Jewel consumes 45,000 gem fragments and 3,000 Horadric Phials.
It is worth noting that these 45,000 gem fragments must come from three different fragment types, which means you need to collect 15,000 fragments of each type.
Although it is also a lot of work to earn gem fragments for Horadric Jewels, it is at least easier than crafting grand-level gems, and the role that Horadric Jewels can play in Season 9 is no less than that of high-level gems.
In addition, in Season 9, the chance of you getting gem fragments is also improved, because in addition to the existing farming methods, this season brings more affixes to Nightmare Dungeon in the form of Escalating Nightmares.
When clearing Escalating Nightmares, you need to complete three built-in nightmare dungeons connected together, each with a corresponding affix effect, and can be carried over to the next dungeon.
Horadric Gem Reserve affix among these affixes allows you to get more gem fragments than usual when clearing dungeons, thus completing the accumulation of materials for Horadric Jewels crafting faster. This was not possible in other seasons before.
In addition to Escalating Nightmare Dungeons and the utilize related affixes already introduced, you can also obtain gem fragments in the following ways:
The above is the information about farming and utilizing gem fragments in Season 9. I hope it’s helpful to you. I hope you can craft Horadric Jewels you want as soon as possible!
July is about to be halfway through, and Diablo 4 Season 9, which was launched at the beginning of the month, is naturally in full swing. Although it did not bring more breakthroughs to Diablo 4 in 2025, it is still worthy of being your first choice for playing ARPG.
However, although the previous 2.3.0 PTR showed some problems, Season 9 was not fully adjusted when it was officially launched. Therefore, the first major patch of this season, 2.3.1, will optimize these issues and fix other bugs after it goes online on July 15.
Based on this, we will introduce to you what changes patch 2.3.1 will make to the seasonal content and class experience of Diablo 4 Season 9 based on known information.
As you know, based on the experience in the first half of the month, it is obvious that the best class in S9 should be Sorcerer or Spiritborn, and their main builds have become more powerful after combining with Horadric Spells.
In comparison, other classes are somewhat weak. If you choose to play them, you may encounter difficulties in accumulating Diablo 4 gold in the early stage, which will hinder your progress.
Therefore, in order to avoid this problem and ensure the overall balance of the game’s class experience as much as possible, patch 2.3.1 has enhanced all classes except Spiritborn. Some are aimed at skills, while others are gear represented by new unique items.
While Spiritborn remained unchanged in Season 9 of the base game, they have been buffed in Vessel of Hatred. If you have been playing DLC recently, you will notice the following changes:
From the above, it can be seen that Barbarian has received the most enhancements. This not only makes up for the long-term lack of interest in this class in Diablo 4, but also may cause a new dominant class competition in the second half of Season 9.
The main seasonal content of Season 9 is Horadric Spells. It can be used as a buff to bring more exploitable power to your characters and builds. At the same time, the game also sets up items such as Horadric Phials & Knowledge to help you upgrade this power.
In addition to the new power, Sins of the Horadrim also brings new dungeons Horadric Strongrooms and Escalating Nightmares. They are not only worthy of being explored, but also your main source of loot in Season 9.
Overall, the above mechanisms are working well, but there are also some minor issues. In order to give you the best experience in Season 9, patch 2.3.1 has made the following optimizations:
In addition, Forgotten Wisdom affix of Nightmare dungeons itself has also received exclusive adjustments. If you unlocked this affix while completing Escalating Nightmares, please note the following changes:
In addition to normal content optimization, major bug fixes are also one of the major features of the patch. Among the fixes that deserve your attention include:
Those are the main things to watch for in patch 2.3.1. It’s worth noting that after the patch is released until 10am on July 19, you can get Rogue transmog item Arbalest crossbow by watching any streamer play Diablo 4 for three hours on Twitch! Don’t miss it!
You may have discovered that Druid has not been sufficiently enhanced for several consecutive Diablo 4 seasons, so that his experience in the game is not as good as other classes, even in Season 9.
But this does not mean that Druid should be abandoned. At least, some players still like to play this class. Therefore, instead of complaining, you should find a way to make Druid play its power as much as possible.
To this end, in addition to mastering the basic class skills, you should also build your own Season 9 combat style as soon as possible through the best Druid leveling build in the early stage of the game, and Werebear Druid is a good choice.
Although Druid and this build will be partially limited by inherent mechanisms, fortunately, the addition of Season 9 seasonal power Horadric Spells can solve this problem well. Next, we will introduce the crafting plan of Werebear Druid to you in detail.
As the main class in Diablo 4, Druid can utilize 3 primary forms in combat, namely Human, Werewolf, and Werebear, and they all have their own unique skills. Werebear Druid build is undoubtedly based on Werebear form.
In contrast, the strength of this build is that it can output high damage, and the weakness is that it is slow, just like a real bear. But if your damage output is high enough, even if the speed is slow, it will not affect your Diablo 4 gold farming efficiency.
Like all Diablo 4 builds, the available skills of Werebear Druid are divided into active and passive. They work differently and the skill point allocation scheme is different.
In general, the damage source skills of this build are mainly active skills Pulverize and Trample, and the overpower and critical hits derived from this can further amplify this damage. Of course, it’s also important to upgrade your active skills in time:
I believe you should also have noticed that Innate Blood Howl brings you extra benefits through Werewolf form. This is because Druids don’t have to be limited to a single form, especially during leveling, and it’s important to combine them to achieve the best effect.
The right passive skills can not only increase your damage and survivability, but also provide bonuses when fighting poisoned enemies:
It should be noted that the passive choices of Defiance and Natural Disaster require you to obtain and equip Aspect Of The Ursine Horror, otherwise you cannot utilize them.
While these aren’t really a skill class, they’re Druid-specific buffs that only provide passive effects, so they’re only useful when paired with a good combination of skills. The best Spirit Boons for this build are:
Horadric Spells include Catalyst, Infusion, and Arcana, which provide additional bonuses in different ways, and as you progress through Season 9, you’ll unlock more spells and get more spell combination options.
If you want to provide targeted assistance to Werebear Druid Build through Horadric Spells, the following are worth prioritizing in combat:
First, when farming gear, since Werebear Druid will frequently trigger overpower in combat, you need to prioritize getting Maces that can enhance this effect. There are no fixed recommendations for other gear, just make sure they have the following types of affixes:
As for legendary aspects, in order to maximize the power of your passive skills, the previously mentioned Aspect Of the Ursine Horror is naturally indispensable. Other aspects worth having include:
They can greatly increase the power of Pulverize and enhance your survivability when you activate Grizzly Rage. Therefore, if you have the ability and time, it is best to farm all of them by clearing dungeons or killing bosses.
The above is the main way to craft the best Druid leveling build Werebear Druid in Season 9. If you insist on playing Druid in this season, this content should help you!
