If you really want to build a druid, I'd suggest going for a wolf druid. Get Wolf Form (durp), some Lycantropy and fury. This will make you a quite forminable fighter. Add Oak Sage of Heart of the Wolverine for increased abilities (just one level gives a nice and cheap bonus). You could allso add some points into Carrion Vine.
I hear you and I need a new plan.
I just made it to level 18 and finally got Twister. It's way too weak for the enemies I am fighting. I'll cast it over and over until all my mana is gone, it's just a waste.
I did save my character to floppy before spending any points, so now I am ready to change paths. The problem is I am still one point shy of doing what I want to do.
I don't think I can go Wolf druid because I put too many points into Oak sage and Cyclone armor already. It seems like the best thing to do is to jump on the Summon tree.
I thought I could go straight from Oak sage to Dire wolf, because the tree shows an arrow that way. But I guess I have to drop one point in Raven and Spirit wolf first. I have those 2 points but that means I have to wait until level 19 to get Dire wolf.
Basically this is as good as it gets. I had the 3rd skill point before I knew I was going to change my build.
You think I can make it with Dire wolf and later on with the Grizzly? With the expansion I should be able to take the Grizzly into the new Act.
I'm going to have my druid in the middle of the battles as crowd control, freezing and fighting.
Edit:
To make things more clear of what I am working with.
Oak sage - 10
Cyclone armor - 6
Arctic Blast - 1
Now I have to add.
Raven - 1
Spirit wolf - 1
One more level.
Dire wolf -1
Because of the Oak sage, it seems like I don't have a choice but to go Summon.
