When a build starts to feel like work...

[gogoblender 3,078]

You kill it

 

I've come to understand that out of every single thing in this game...the dryad's blowpipe use is incredible. Sooo fast, satisfying noise when it hits...nothing to hate about it.

 

I was slowly making my way up the lader and got to level 67 when it hit me regarding my pure magic dryad build...

 

I hate her

 

lol

 

Not cuz she's weak... far from it. I took zero wep lores and focused on making magic everything I could about her. She was quick with bosses, her pet at level 67 was being cast at level 146, she was a tank, and her Twisted Torment with Acute was a delight.

 

Problem was, she just wasn't as fun when you're used to playing a ranged build that's so much more dramatic. I think for a while I was just wanting to see how well Torment could do at higher levels. The CA stacks, can critical is modded by heads, and does quite well with all of the other relevant skills all focusing on it. As use as a primary, it does have some appeal...but after playing a real ranged with pipe...there's just nothing out there that can beat it.

 

So...g'bye Pure Magic Voodoo Dryad

Do you know what specifically the mastery of Riding gave you?

 

Was it just faster run speed for horse?

Guess its all a matter of taste.

Hard as I have tried I just cannot "get into" the Dryad.

Maybe its the whole "nature" theme of the character. I dunno.

And I actually don't like the blowpipe.....I prefer a more substantial weapon

So I have parked mine at level 22.

 

But I'm glad you have a toon you love gogo ........for me atm its the icy HE all the way.

go go I can imagine acute being effective on spells, but it seems it would only work on bosses or a few. I mean before acute duration ends can you spam the twisted torment to each enemy who is attacking you even if there are more than 5? Seems good for champions, but what did you do to fight just the common grunts?

 

I had a hard time with dryad spell user, because the lances was hard to target, the disease only started working when they were half killed and

I never tried the vine or totems..

I have to say I enjoy the blow pipe dryad Slowly but steadily leveling mine up
