1. Strength - Increasing Strength will boost your damage, so you should invest as many points into it as you're comfortable with (if you feel particularly adventurous, you can even go max Strength for this build). 
2. Dexterity - You only need enough Dexterity to meet gear requirements. 
3. Vitality - Put all your remaining points here. You don't need as much vitality as with other melee builds, thanks to scaling the Druid gets from His Shape Shifting skills. 
4. Energy - Adding points to Energy is an extreme waste - don't do it. 

This is the core Skill Tree of this Build. From it, you'll get the ability to assume the form of a Werewolf and shred your enemies with vicious Fury. Thanks to Lycantrophy, you will also become very tanky, even without investing any points into Vitality. 

Skills:

1. Werewolf [20/20] - An ability that allows the Druid to take the form of a Wolf, imparting to him heightened combat facilities and quicker reflexes. This ability makes you very resilient (it boosts your Life and Stamina by 25%) and extremely dangerous in close-quarters combat (at level 20, it gives 335 bonus Attack Rating % and 68% extra Attack Speed). 
2. Lycanthropy [20/20] - Increases Druid's Max Life when in shifted form (percentage-wise) and increases shifted form's duration. Thanks to Lycantrophy, you can go for max strength and don't hurt your survivability as at level 20 this gives you extra 115% Life. 
3. Feral Rage [20/20] - This powerful Skill grants the Druid the ability to steal increasing amounts of life from his enemies with successive hits, while in the Werewolf form. It also increases Druid's Damage, Attack, and Walk/Run Speeds. This is your utility attack - use it to get Life Steal and boost your mobility. 
4. Rabies [1/20] - Prerequisite. A skill that allows you to bite your enemies, spreading a contagious disease that wracks their flesh. 
5. Fury [20/20] - Throws the Druid into a bloodthirsty frenzy and makes him attack multiple foes with a raging fervor. This is an offensive ability that costs 4 Mana and deals multiple Hits per cast (5 from level 4 onward). It offers a high Attack % bonus and a nicely scaling Damage % bonus. This is your main DPS skill, use it to tear through anything that dares to stand in your way. 

SUMMONING SKILLS

Druid's summoning tree is a great source of utility and we want just that. Mainly, you're interested in two skills - Heart of the Wolverine and Summon Grizzly. Heart of the Wolverine will greatly increase your offensive power and Summon Grizzly will give you a personal tank. 

Skills:

1. Raven [1/20] - Prerequisite. Summon Ravens to peck out the eyes of your enemies. 
2. Oak Sage [1/20] - Summons a spirit that increases your party's health. This is a powerful utility skill that increases the Health of everyone in your group, including mercenaries and summons. With it, your survivability simply skyrockets. 
3. Summon Spirit Wolf [1/20] - Summons a Spirit Wolf to attack your enemies. 
4. Summon Dire Wolf [1/20] - Summons a Dire Wolf to attack your enemies. 
5. Summon Grizzly [1/20] - Summons a Grizzly bear to attack your enemies. Even with just 1 point, Grizzly is very effective at tanking. It will help you stay alive by soaking up damage. 
6. Heart of Wolverine [X/20] - This ability Grants Druid the knowledge needed to summon into being a spirit that increases his skill in battle, as well as that of his party. Heart of Wolverine increases Druid's combat capabilities by quite a bit and works well as an addition to this Build's core. After you've maxed out the recommended Shape Shifting Skills, spend the rest of your Skill Points here. 

You don't need any Elemental Skills. 

Skills:

1. none. 

This build benefits a lot from Increased Attack Speed, thus you should prioritize getting a Weapon that has a lot of it (Increased Attack Speed in other items is not nearly as important). Another extremely important stat for a Fury Druid is Attack Rating, as it makes you miss less often. Also, you want to get as many Skill Levels (Druid/Shape-Shifting Skills in this case) as possible to increase the build's overall power level. Resistances are also important, but they should never come before the offensive power.

WEAPONS

• Required Level: 67
  • +2 To All Skills 
  • All Resistances +20-30 (varies) 
  • +5 To All Attributes 

ARMORS

Enigma (Runeword) - Arguably, the best item in the entire game. Without it, any character that is not a Sorceress is a mere shadow of itself. Enigma will greatly increase your Magic Find, give you +2 to All Skills, and provide you with Teleport which, as far as mobility goes, can't be matched by anything else. 

• Defense: Depends on base Armor

Fortitude (Runeword) - If you're after raw damage and don't mind sacrificing mobility for it, this mighty runeword will be a great alternative to Enigma. We are of the opinion that the 300% Enhanced Damage it provides is worth the sacrifice any time of the day.

• Required Level: 59

  • 3-5% Life Stolen Per Hit (varies)

GLOVES

Soul Drainer (Vambraces) - This pair of gloves is essential for this build, as it lowers enemy defenses which counteracts your attack rating problems somewhat. On top of that, Soul Drainers provide nice leech effects.

CHARMS

1. Annihilus - This fabled Charm boosts your Skills, Stats, and Resistances. It's the best Unique Small Charm, and it's limited to just 1 in your equipment. 
2. Gheed's Fortune - Pretty much a must-have if you are after the best available charms. It adds 80-160% extra gold from monsters, reduces vendor prices by up to 15%, and gives up to 40% better magic find. 
3. Hellfire Torch - The BiS Unique Large Charm that increases your Vitality, Skills, and more. You should, of course, go for one that gives +1 to Druid Skills. 
4. Grand Charms - These should have a combination of the following: +Shape-Shifting Skills, Max Damage, Attack Rating, Life. 
5. Small Charms -  With these, you should get Life, Attack Rating, and Max Damage. 
6. Large Charms - Try to avoid using these as they generally provide sub-par bonuses. 

MERCENARY

We recommend picking up Act 2 Defiance Mercenary for extra damage mitigation bonuses. He should be equipped with: 

1. Infinity Rune Word in Ethereal Spear - This provides Conviction Aura, which reduces the defenses and resistances of nearby enemies and offers very high bonus damage. A top (and expensive) choice for any Act2 merc build. 
2. Fortitude Rune Word in Armor - This Runeword gives solid defenses that are necessary to keep your merc alive. 
3. Vampire Gaze - For high Life Leech and damage reduction.
