Diablo 4 - Druid Skills Guide (Season 13)

The Druid has access to 26 different skills in Diablo 4. Each Skill has two pairs of Side Upgrades to choose from, and three Variation options. Access to the third Variation option of each skill is exclusive to the Lord of Hatred DLC.

In addition, Druid Skills have Form Node options to gain a small bonus for staying with the Skill’s base form, or to change the Form in which the skill is cast, adding the related Form Skill Tag.
