One of the best builds to start or end a season of Diablo 2 Resurrected! The power of the druid's tornadoes and hurricanes!

Why is the Tornado Druid so powerful?

Before starting the guide, here is why the tornado druid is very interesting to play, whether at the beginning or at the end of the season:

• it hits in physical damage with Tornadoes and cold with Hurricane
• you benefit from great resistances with the elemental armor and the oak of life
• it does a lot of damage quickly and resists very well
• he is also very powerful in PvP and in teams with the life boost

Leveling skills

There are two schools for your Druid. The easiest way is to go through the fire tree, put points in fire storm then crack. Do a reset once level 30. You can also delay until you unlock the tornadoes and use arctic explosion, but it will be much more complicated.

• Reset level 30:
  • the max in Tornado
  • some points in Hurricane Armor for the duration of Hurricane
  • some points in Oak Sage
  • a point in Liane Charognarde if needed
  • possibly a Grizzly point
• Then Max Tornado
• 10 Hurricane points 10 Hurricane Armor points
• Max Hurricane then Hurricane Armor
• Max Cyclone
• The rest in Oak Sage
