We have many top-level meta builds here on Icy Veins, but there’s a whole lot more to the game than that! Today we have a player try a VERY low-engagement build, literally using zero skills on the hotbar!
No Thorns, Plenty of Summons, Not a Necro!
You’d expect a no-button build like this to just stack Thorns and call it a day. And then when you hear it’s a summon build, you’d immediately think of Necromancer. Well, it’s neither of those! GoblinSorix went for the least interactive Druid build imaginable! It’s a whole lot of (were)wolves and ravens with all the companion Aspects you can think off, capped off with the 
Gathlen’s Birthright Unique, since the summons are also Nature skills. Ashava also steps in with some boss power help.
As GoblinSorix mentions, the gear isn’t the best either, but it’s a very relaxing build. As you’d expect, it takes a while to clear things since you can’t focus anything specific. Here’s a short description of how the build works:
“All of your aspects work on your companions passives.
We have turned Ravens and Wolves into Storm skills, as well as Nature Skills.
Nature Skills can poison and get buffed from the target being poisoned.
I did have the other poison paragon board on, but felt that it was more fun to have the 50x crit dmg modifier. That is it, nothing else behind the reason, I may even swap back.
Please modify and improve the build where you can, as I work full time and can not grind excessively. It would be very funny to see the rise of the Druids simply being a dude walking their dogs.”
What crazy non-meta builds have you gone for since the game’s launch?
