Good work Chuck, I've started a TS druid to level in parallel with Hulk and... the pally one (17 and 18). That should keep me off the streets for a while :)

There seems to be something strange going on with the voting/cookies system. Whenever I up-vote one of your posts, a few minutes later your count goes down again. Maybe you have a mortal enemy who just keeps down-voting everything you do lol

I'm struggling to see why people would be down-voting much that you've said. I'm absolutely amazed that 5 people managed to find a reason to down-vote the main post of your mini-guides, I mean wtf - why would anyone ever down-vote something like that, even if they don't find it useful personally, at the absolute worst it's not doing any harm ffs.

Maybe this down-voting thing needs a tweak?

There's no tweaking needed. It's a personal preference on people's opinions.

GJ Chuck. I'm playing tree right around that midgame spot. Any love for Clawfeet? Also you forgot Scosglen helm when you inferred wearing the set.

Also, why not +12 staff on switch? I'm using that for beeeegtime goodberry + faerie fire + motw might be out +5/6 in TW form itself. ?_?

yes , clawfeet can be added as an option too ( i prefer the Epicenter) , but the scosglen helm is not an option here , as Natha RW is a must .

the switch gear is orientated to be used vs the physical immunes , as you don't have any other source of elemental procs like you would by using a skill that can proc " on attack" , so it goes for %heavy fire damage to boost the wildfire + extra MOTW boost .

Faerie Fire is not very usefull here as most of the time you are facing the danger heads first , so that trail behind you won't hit much . Force of nature on the other hand is providing a great boost to wildfire considering the tons of STR you got , making it very viable even as 1-pointer or few-pointer in end game .

that +12 staff for boosting the berries is not always the best choice . personaly i only go for that if going as caster or trap rat

The cookie system is a high-school popularity contest. Nothing more. And like any voting system, there are a lot of ways it can be--and is being--abused. Once you realize that, things on the forum start to make a lot more sense.

What I'm curious about is why some people aren't allowed to vote at all, and what triggers the suspension of one's voting privilege.

Using FF for the avoid%. Think I should swap? I almost never have to use Wildfire.

With builds like traxex you don't even have to ask. It looks like something done by a six year old who's never played median. I actually even believe there's a very small possibility chuck is a genius level troll who never breaks character, and he's been at it for a while.
