It certainly will work. My highest single target dmg char ever was Wildfire bear back in S25. Haven't tried Elder Law then cause I think Fascinating craft 1h throw axe for 3 fpa + shield is bis, but certainly quite good still.

Now in 2.0 bear passive give straight up physical leech instead of lgok like before so I imagine it's a bit more annoying to play wildfire though.

For now to be honest even using Norrec's Axe its far far better. when i crafted axe there is no comparison, so Elder Law doesn not work for me ;p

Huh do you mean that with the current physical setup, Elder Law doesn't give any damage? (expected for obvious reason)

Or that even with respec to full Wildfire it still doesn't give damage?

Hey i just found Seal of the Nephalem Kings and i think it may be worth mentioning here. As u wrote, Giant's Knuckle propably is BIS but Seal f.e. gives better dmg than ripstar.

Feel free to upgrade into shark when you can though.


Insanely good hint. I used a shark t1 throwing axe until 80 where I switched to the set. Only problem was the lightning priestess, all other enemies dropped like flies

2.1

Not much to say except for the gigantic fpa nerf at end game setup. From 4 fpa to 6 fpa, with somewhat trivial rend buff likely comes out to around 30% less damage.

I play in SP and SSF with a bear druid. I think it's OK, especially if you got the set. I'm at lvl112, it's a slower farmer, but tanky. I have the TU for the moment, but it's fun to play and safe.
