From October 8th to now, Diablo 4 Season 6 has been officially launched for nearly 2 months. If you have experienced most of the game content, then I believe you will find that no matter what class you play, the use of builds is essential to improve combat efficiency.

Currently, including the newly launched class Spiritborn in DLC, there are 6 playable classes in Diablo 4 series. Among them, Druid, as a classic class, may not be as popular as the new class, but it still has its own unique characteristics and fans.

Therefore, there are many builds suitable for Druid. This time we will focus on introducing you to how to use Boulder Druid Build in Season 6.

Skills Suitable For Boulder Druid Build

In Diablo 4 series, Druid is the master of the earth and its molten elements. And when he uses Boulder Druid Build, since the build mainly revolves around Boulder skill for damage output, Boulder is actually the core of the build. But it also needs to be used in conjunction with other active and passive skills:

Active skills:

• Shred-Enhanced: 1 point
• Claw-Enhanced: 1 point
• Earthen Bulwark-Enhanced: 1 point
• Poison Creeper: 1 point
• Savage Hurricane-Enhanced, Savage: 5 points
• Boulder-Enhanced, Natural: 5 points
• Petrify-Prime, Supreme: 5 points

Passive skills:

• Heart of the Wild: 1 point
• Wild Impulses: 3 points
• Backlash: 3 points
• Ancestral Fortitude: 2 points
• Feral Aptitude: 3 points
• Clarity: 3 points
• Mending: 3 points
• Provocation: 3 points
• Stone Guard: 3 points
• Ursine Strength: Key Passive

If you are a returning player, you may quickly reach level 50 through your Renown. But if you are playing the game for the first time through Season 6, you will need to start from the beginning. The good news is that in the post-Diablo 4 Season 6 version, you will reach level 50 very quickly.

You will then earn some skill points and Diablo 4 Gold through levelling up and Renown points, which can be used to upgrade skills. You can follow the suggestions we provide, or choose other skills to customize your Boulder Druid Build as you can.

How To Do Skill Rotation?

When you enter a battle, you can’t actually always use unique skills, so you need to rotate some skills in the most efficient rotation order. For Boulder Druid Build, you can activate Poison Creeper first while letting your spikey pet run on its own.

Next you need to cast Hurricane to cause AOE damage, and follow up with Petrify to further increase the damage value. After that, cast Poison Creeper so that your pet can immobilize and poison the enemy. After that, start casting Boulder to damage and repel the enemy.

If there is a single target close to you, remember to cast Shred as much as possible. When your spirit starts to drain, start using Claw to restore it. Then, alternate between Boulder, Shred, and Claw as needed when your Creeper can fight independently.

Best Spirit Boons

As a Druid, you can choose to equip 5 of the 16 different Spirit Boons. If you want to match it with Boulder Druid Build, we recommend that you prioritize the following:

• Deer-Wariness: Reduces damage from elites.
• Eagle-Avian Wrath: Gain more critical strike damage.
• Wolf-Pack Leader: Lucky hits can reset cooldown for companion skills.
• Snake-Obsidian Slam: Every tenth skill boosts overpower damage.
• Eagle (Bond)-Iron Feather: Increase your maximum life.

Best Paragon Glyphs

After reaching level 60, you will gain access to Paragon board to continue leveling up. Each time you unlock a corresponding node, your attributes will be improved. But eventually you’ll need to choose Glyphs for more substantial upgrades.

To maximize the effectiveness of Boulder Druid Build, you’ll want to prioritize the following Glyphs at different levels:

Level 15:

• Dominate
• Fang and Claw
• Earth and Sky
• Spirit
• Outmatch

Level 46:

• Spirit
• Fang and Claw
• Outmatch
• Dominate
• Earth and Sky

Best Mercenaries

Introduced in Vessel of Hatred expansion, mercenaries have become an important mechanic for maximizing the potential of most builds in Diablo 4. When using Boulder Druid Build as a Druid, you can prioritize Varyana and Raheir as your mercenaries.

Hiring Varyana and choosing to use her Bloodthirst skill will give you a 25% attack speed boost. Then recruiting Rahier as a second mercenary and using his skill on Bastion will keep you out of danger.

How To Use Boulder Druid Build In PVP?

In fact, PVP version of Boulder Druid Build is not much different from the normal combat version, which undoubtedly saves you a lot of energy. Although minions and pets are usually not very effective in PVP, Poison Creeper can effectively hit other players by immobilizing and poisoning enemies.

On this basis, combined with the powerful attack damage of Boulder skills and the powerful mental strengthening attack combination, Boulder Druid Build will be very effective in PVP. The premise is that you can do it correctly.

Refer to the above guide, I believe it can help you use Boulder Druid Build more smoothly and become one of the most powerful Druid warriors in Diablo 4 Season 6! Wish you good luck!
