Really informative. I have to confess that I'm intimidated by Druid. I made one 5 years ago and it felt like trial by fire. To try it I had to hit the ground running in group content and hope I could be good enough to heal allies or else I would be so bad that I failed at my job. And I wasn't good enough then to get the meta gear on Harrier/Monk. I've seen that druid is now much better at solo and damage so I've thought about dusting my druid off and playing in combat to get more feel for the class and try to ease into support more slowly.
Druid used to be hard indeed. I avoided it entirely previously due to how spirits worked. But now it's really much better and more manageable. It's also really effective. I really hope you like it when you try it 🙂
What alterations (if any) to the build would be needed for cleric stats (the recommended alternative) instead of harrier’s? I’ve a set of ascended I can adjust for my Druid, and cleric insignias are far cheaper than Harrier’s, I think.
New into the game and already have a reaper, but I would like to support friends/others players while doing events, open world, dungeons. I just have hot and pof expansions, do I need the new the new one?
I can really feel my contribution on Druid in wvw. It’s awesome. With pvp; if you have a very bursty group, having a healer in the group is amazing. I’ve been winning games consistently as Druid heals. I only use core ranger for open world solo stuff lol
Great video! Druid is still in a weird spot for me. For raids I can see using it and some other PvE. I've always wanted to get into Druid but as a WvW Commander it's never a main option compared to FB or Chrono As far as PvE, like for Fractal CMs I never see it used as a healer compared to again FB and now the newly updated Chrono. Do you use druid for Fractal CMs without too much trouble?
Wonderful guide, just the right amount of depth to actually explain what to do and why. :)
Glad it was helpful!
Note that skill 2 within CA can be used while channeling/casting other abilities within the form as it has no cast time itself.
Good tip! Thank you 👍
i dont ha ve druid yet, can you explain what that means?
@@yunusdts You can use the skill 2 insta-cast ability while other channeling (like skill 4) is happening without interrupting the channel/cast.

You'd need to increase your boon duration from other sources as much as possible.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much!
My pleasure 🙂
Dope guide as usual, Johnny! Any plans for a warrior build? 😁
Thank you! I'll try to work on a proper warrior build as soon as I can

I just have hot and pof expansions, do I need the new the new one?
You need the latest expansion to be able to use Mace on Rangers. But the build can still work very well with and Axe instead of a Mace
Could i run Celestial gear with trinkets Harriers?
Yes, that can work 👍
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny For some reason i like using Celestial gear
@@Eric-vh8ru dito. it's way easier to come by and it is still better then trinkets that have higher healing power but lack concentration
can this build be used using mace? started using Druid but I feel like playing piano unlike Healbrand
Yes for sure!
Can this work as celestial ?
It can, but won't be as effective in heals. In hard fights, the heals may be enough
Will this work for PvP and wvw?
It can work in WvW with few adjustments. As for PvP, I don't know. I haven't played PvP for a very long time

Thank you 🙂
Yes I tried it in Strikes and Fractals CMs and it worked great!
Can you make a video for condi druid?
I will try 👍
A+
Thank you!
