Bad build after only respec

Whats a good exp spot to farm on normal to get from 20 to 30 (act 1 ideally) … i messed up my druid build and stuck slogging through it until next respec , or grinding the lvl to make it viable to push game normally >?

Currently unable to move forward in normal act 3 with current build

Edit to clarify : Title *** i messed up build AFTER using my 1 time respec from act 1
Edit2: not crying about it either , just looking for my best option or should i just roll a new druid !

Farm Beetleburst at Far Oasis waypoint in act 2. If you’re in Offline put it as high /player as you can. If you are Online then just do Tomb Runs(run through Tal Rasha Tombs clearing all mobs)

Take everything off and store in shared stash.

Make a new character.

Level it correctly.

If your in public games then normal cows to 25 then Baal.

If its offline, Tal’Rasha Tomb / Travincal Council.

Will try this for a while 100% , hope its decent speed to lvl up , if not , just you helping is a big plus for your karma , so thank you !

Find some cow games they are ideal for 20-30 you slow way down about 26-7 but if you need to stay on acts before 3 it will be your best bet to level within a decent time frame.

That what im scared off , but being barely lvl 21 , i thought this was my best option sadly :frowning: guess there goes a few hours down the drain haha

To make sure , since you kindly offered your opinion on this , current build is endgame build(i switched too early) so i wouldnt need another respec if i level up , new character still my best option ?

What end game build? What exactly got messed up too at level 21

Also, never delete any character. Save your socket and Imbue quests 100000%.

Druid , went for the leveling fire build to endgame wind build too early

Edit: fire did decent dmg , current wind build does not , need tornado probably ?

Makes a lot of sense now actually. Sorry for your loss :sweat_smile: Twister is kinda gross.

I would try to take advantage of public games as best you can if your playing online.

Once you hit 25 it should smooth out and you’ll have access to Tornado as well as the ability to snag yourself a spirit sword pretty early on on paired with a stealth chest plate, but only if you can make it there without a headache.

I don’t play druid but I think druids switch to wind sometime during mid-nightmare when they have enough points saved up and unlock a synergy or required skill at that point.

/e only reason I know this much is Dbrunski has vods on twitch of him playing Fire druid in singleplayer when servers were down on Bnet.

Yes between 30-40 xD i didnt read far enough before my mistake haha

Already using stealth and steel runewords :wink: think ima try and slug it through lv25 to get tornado and then if it doesnt get better just roll a new character and make this one a mule !

Final (probably) edit unless someone has some breaking way to make this better :

THANK YOU , everyone who replied , with helpful advice , thank you all .

If you make it to lvl 25 that removes the level cap on your xp gains. You can get a rush through Act 3 and do Chaos runs to lvl 40 to finish your transition to wind. Source on xp cap: https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Guide:Diablo_2_Level_Up_Guide_v1.10

It’s weak without synergies. Grizzly auto + Merc might hit harder than your Tornado’s. Then for some unknown reason about halfway through Fire just stops doing damage. :man_shrugging:

My druid was easily one of my favorite characters but I really did not enjoy that initial experience.

Imo restart. You’ll get to 21 again fast with efficient play.
Otherwise, a2 tomb runs, as kurast temples, public cow runs

If your still in Normal (before you get the NM respec), just make a new character and transfer the items across.
