Build Druid Primalist Last Epoch 1.0, a build based on bees and their bleeding on the Spriggan form!

Introduction

This build is out of the ordinary and offers you a powerful version to go up to corruption 400. Be careful, this build requires several rare equipment, you will not be able to play it until you have these items. Your Spriggan form will allow you to automatically summon bees while enjoying good mobility and high resistance with an average of 10 armor against bosses.

Build Explanation

Here are the skills of the build:

• Spriggan Form: transforms you into Spriggan giving access to new skills.
• Summon Wolf: summons a wolf to boost your bees by giving them the Frenzy bonus
• Summon Spriggan: allows you to summon a Spriggan which will increase the life regeneration and dodge of your bees, but also your chances of dodging critical hits.
• Maelstrom: Grants mobility and spellcasting speed through Frenzy and Haste bonuses.
• Summon Thorn Totem: unlocks passive bonuses in the presence of a totem, however they benefit from the global boosts of summons and will bring some damage.

You will use the unique item Bloodkeeper's Nest which allows you to summon ten bees every 10 seconds when you are in Spriggan form. This object will condition your gameplay and your statistics:

• When you cast your Spriggan form's Thorn Shield skill you will automatically cast another Thorn Shield at the nearest bee.
• Your attunement will provide health and physical damage to your bees.
• Your strength will give physical penetration for the bleeding inflicted by your bees.

Thorn Shield is a Spriggan skill that increases the target's armor and explodes after 2 seconds to deal area damage. The specialty of this spell that interests us is the bleeding branch, by exploding the bees will inflict bleeding all around them in a large area which allows to have a very clearing of the area. Although the Spriggan is accessible on all Primalist classes, the Druid gives you access to maximum strength and attunement in all talent trees.

The biggest difficulty in building is to gather objects with chances of bleeding on your summons because no class of the Primalist gives this kind of bonus. For this you will look for a helmet but also for idols that will give this kind of bonus, you will also use the unique armor Doublet of Onos Tull to improve the bleeding of your summons. Note that these idols are hard to find, consider using the Fall of the Outcasts monolith blessing to help you find them. In single target you can go up to several hundred bleeding stacks.

You will therefore play a spell caster who will use his spell casting speed to cast Thorn Shield as often as possible on yourself and boost your defenses. The Relic will allow you to cast a new Thorn Shield at a Bee and this will be the biggest source of damage. Your bees are therefore a support for your spell and you will not do any damage yourself. Note that Thorn Shield is initially cast on any target, the Introspection point of the Spriggan Form tree allows this spell to be cast only on you, which greatly increases your defense. On the other hand, if you want to play a much more offensive version, do not use this point and simply aim for your bees. 

Talent Tree

• Basic class (20 points): Natural Attunement, Primal Strength, Hunter's Restoration

Items to collect

This build needs several unique items to be effective:

• Bloodkeeper's Nest
• Tears of the Forest: amulet that gives a point in Spriggan Form and also rage regeneration depending on the number of vines you have invoked.
• Silvafrond: ring that allows you to teleport to the place where you summon a vine. In addition, it allows you to invoke 6 vines simultaneously instead of one. Vine becomes your movement spell and goes very well with the amulet so that you are constantly with rage.
• Doublet of Onos Tull: armor that provides very good bleeding bonuses for your summons.

For the rest of your equipment, favor the following statistics:

• Bleed chance for summons
• Bleed duration for summons
• Summon Damage
• Spell casting speed
• Summon Life
• Vitality and life percentage, resistance

The more bees you have, the more damage you will do. For your idols, try to get a 4x1 idol with bee summons every 10 seconds. Also grab another 4 x 1 idol with chances to summon a Thorn Totem on hit. For the rest of the idols, opt for bleeding by touching for invocations and resistances.

Gameplay

The gameplay is quite simple, first summon your Spriggan and your wolf then transform into a Spriggan. In the map, move with Summon Vine to teleport and increase your rage at the same time. When you encounter monsters use the Thorn Shield skill in a loop, your tree and items will do the rest. Exploding Thorn Shields from your bees will easily kill monsters. Against bosses, don't hesitate to cast Summon Healing Totem to heal your summons and yourself.
