Diablo 4 – Druid . Talent Guide

So far in Diablo 4 Beta version, Druid is a bit overwhelming for most players. While most find Druid’s skills interesting from a strictly aesthetic point of view, there is a growing consensus that skills are generally weak, especially when compared to the other four classes. However, if players want to try and increase the power of Druid, they should consider spending skill points on Talents. Talents are passive abilities that allow players to further customize their builds and power up their active skills.

Below you can see all of Druid’s available Talents and which Talents we recommend for a few key builds.
