Diablo 4 Season 3 Ultimate Lightning Storm Druid for Gauntlet

We're thrilled to bring you a complete guide to the Ultimate Lightning Storm Druid build for Season 3 Gauntlet in Diablo 4. This is a blend of old and new that's built for speed and damage, but can be made tanky with some simple tweaks. Now, let's get stuck into the skill tree.

 


Diablo 4 Season 3 Ultimate Lightning Storm Druid for Gauntlet

 

Skill Tree

For our skill tree we'll be focusing on maximising our Lightning Storm and its synergies. We'll skip basic attacks and dump points into Lightning Storm followed by Raging Storm. Some nodes are bugged and shouldn't be taken until fixed. We need Predator Instincts and the werewolf form upgrades for speed and tankiness. Ancestral Fortitude is required to cap resists.

Wolves and Poison Creeper only need one point, as we're just taking them to unlock more Ravages via Brutal.

Nature's Reach + Trample will give us lots of defence, while Neurotoxin + Toxic Claw gives us some extra oomph.

Petrify is our ultimate choice, with a lean towards Prime for fast Boss Duriel Summoning kills.

Defiance + Circle of Life gives us health sustain, while Quick Shift + Heightened Senses make us feel better to play.

Ursine Strength is our keystone passive, which gives us a huge damage bonus when at full health (something we're aiming to keep up by strategically shape-shifting).

 

 

Spirit Boons

In Spirit Boons we take Weariness + Sight Talons + Aven Wrath for deer buffs, then Energized for spirit sustain and Massachus for healing (Bulwark could replace Petrify if you want defense).

 

Gear

Our gear setup is all about getting as much out of the build as possible through uniques: Tempest Roar/Madwolf Glee are core armor pieces that boost damage/speed; Unsung Aesthetics wraps will triple your clearspeed once you can one-shot with Lightning Storm.

 

Weapon is axe with damage vs healthy enemies for quick clears even on elites. Jewels should focus on crit chance/damage, especially lightning skills and Ravens for your 3 points in them.

 

 

Paragon Board

The Paragon Board is all about refining our build. We want Fuminate for lightning damage, Earth + Sky for shapeshift skill damage, Ancestral Guidance for spirit, Resolve/Harmony for defenses.

 

Gameplay & Build Planner

The build is fast and efficient. You'll be shifting constantly to werewolf to maintain high mobility while obliterating targets with a barrage of Lightning Storms. Petrify usage will vary depending on the opponent: It's good to save it for tough rares/uniques/bosses if you need it, but it won't be necessary often.

Conclusion

Ultimate Lightning Storm Druid is a fiery build that absolutely shreds through Season 3 Gauntlet in Diablo 4. It requires precision and agility, but once you've got that down pat you'll never stop spinning through hordes at breakneck speed! Remember to tweak the build here or there if it doesn't suit your playstyle or if you're struggling with certain Gauntlets.
