I've looked around and done research, and found that the bp I need to reach is 10 fps, which gives me 2.5 attacks per second.

Skills layout- (norm rushed)
Rabies-13
Werewolf-5
Oak Sage-1
Feral Rage-1
Lycan-7
Psn Creeper-6

Rabies will get +4 if I use the equipment I'm planning (Honor knout and +3 rabies +3 lycan +wolf 3os helm [what would one of those cost?]) so rabies with no psynergies in it does 658-723. Since 6 points in psn creeper does +108% more damage for rabies, it'd do 1368-1503 (I think that's right). I'm not relying solely on rabies or I would pump more points into creeper.

Gear-
Weapon-Honor Knout
Armor-Artisan's Light/Mage plate of the squid (socketed with max jewels)
Shield-Haven't decided, any suggestions? (possibly rhyme? Or a 3os bone shield of deflecting and 3x p diamond it for casters?)
Helmet-3os druid pelt +3 rabies +3 lycan +x wolf (socketed with max jewels)
Boots-sanders
gloves/belt-deaths
Rings/ammy-Angelics

I'll use spirit/sig shield on switch to transform and cast oak sage (I'll look for a 2os +3 sage [possibly +3 cyclone armor??] helm to lore and use to make sage).

Stats, I really am not sure. I guess str/dex for gear then vit? Maybe pump more into dex after I reach weapon reqs? I don't know

The reason I'm not relying on rabies so much is because death's gloves. I know any melee duel I am in I'll be facing them. In melee duels I will attack with rabies and then hit with feral rage until rabies runs out, then hit again. When facing casters, I'll just chase them until I can hit them I guess?

I haven't even checked the damage yet, I had to uninstall maphack for the time being to clean stuff up on my computer, and I haven't had the time to get on anyways.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am debating trading my current druid's gear for this characters'. He is fun and all...but I beat pubbies to easily and the only people that manage to beat me are other really good low level duelers.

So...yeah. Input and stuff. Thanks!

ditch the honor knout.

get urself a 6 shael weapon iether naga crowbill or something.

your a psn druid so you will have a tough time against anyone with max psn res and psn length reduction.

shield: artisans tower/gothic of deflecting with max dmg jewels.
being chilled wont affect your attack speed but it will affect your run/walk speed.

use bloodfists + string of ears. deaths will do little for you, maybe against blizz sorces.

those druid pelts arent as expensive as you think becuase there are hardly any rabies druids out there. start with a +3 rabies then upgrade gradually.

stats: enuf str for gear anuf dex for max block, rest vita.

against casters get a hi range 2 handed weapon like a battle scythe and look at the ias calc to see what ias is required for a decent frame rabies.
honor knout is just to slow for druids.

Thanks for the help guys, I'll probably use a 5 shael'd Dimensional Blade with a max jewel or something of the sort in it.

I still don't know about the shield, a tower of delflecting with max's in it seems good.

Oh, coatol2, you seemed to miss the beginning part where I showed what I was putting skill points into. Oak sage is there.

Still not sure about the sojs/SS ammy, I will want/need AR.
