Oh, well, if you’re startin’ fresh as a druid in Diablo 4, let me tell ya, you’ll want to go with the Pulverize build. It’s somethin’ real strong, helps ya level up quick from 1 all the way to 60, and you don’t need much fancy stuff to get goin’. Now, this build is all about smashin’ things like a big ol’ bear, and trust me, it’ll get ya far.
Startin’ Out

When you’re just gettin’ started, at level 1, you’ll want to grab that Pulverize skill as soon as it’s available. It’s one of the best for knockin’ out packs of enemies real fast. You’ll be turnin’ into a bear with Werebear skills, and that Pulverize skill smashes the ground, hittin’ enemies real hard. You just keep smackin’ them with it, and it’ll help you get through them levels fast.
Levelin’ Up Strategy
Now, as you keep levelin’ up, you’ll want to start focusin’ on gear and some other skills. Put points into makin’ your Pulverize hit harder, and also look at gettin’ some defenses like Fortify. Fortify is good for makin’ sure you don’t die so easy, which is real important when enemies start hittin’ harder.
Here’s a few skills ya might wanna focus on:
- Pulverize: Your main attack skill, it’s what you’ll be smashin’ enemies with most of the time.
- Trample: Real good for rushin’ into enemies and knockin’ ‘em down.
- Earthen Bulwark: This helps you stay alive longer by givin’ you a shield.
- Fortify: Keeps ya tough, so you ain’t droppin’ dead when things get rough.
With them skills, you’ll be in good shape from the early levels all the way up to level 60.
Gear and Weapons
For weapons, ya wanna look for two-handed maces, they work best for this build. They come with some bonuses that really help your Pulverize hit harder, especially by givin’ ya more Overpower damage. Overpower happens when ya deal extra damage on a hit, and with Pulverize, it happens a lot. So, grab a good two-handed mace, and you’ll be smashin’ even stronger.
As for armor, look for somethin’ that increases damage reduction when fortified. Sapphires in your armor are real good for this. They’ll help ya take less damage when things get tough. Stick some rubies in your weapon too, cause they’ll increase your Overpower damage even more.
Endgame and Beyond
Once you hit that big ol’ level 60, you ain’t done yet. Nope, that Pulverize build can carry ya right into the endgame. You’ll just keep smashin’ harder, takin’ on tougher enemies, and if you stick with the Werebear setup, you’ll be a real unstoppable force. At this point, you might wanna look into addin’ some more fancy enchantments and Paragon points, but for now, you just focus on gettin’ there first.

Oh, and don’t forget about Werebear form – that’s key to the whole thing. You’ll be transformin’ into this big ol’ bear, takin’ hits like a champ and givin’ ‘em back even harder. Pulverize works so well in bear form, you’ll see.
Now, I ain’t gonna lie, if you’re usin’ other builds like the wolf or storm stuff, it might take ya longer to level up. But with Pulverize, you’ll be speedin’ through it, and if ya want, you can switch later once you’re at higher levels, but why bother when you can just smash everything to bits, right?
Conclusion
So, if you’re lookin’ for a strong and simple way to level up your druid in Diablo 4, Pulverize is the way to go. It’s fast, it’s strong, and it’ll keep you movin’ from level 1 to 60 and even beyond. Just keep smashin’, keep fortifyin’, and you’ll be knockin’ out enemies like nobody’s business.
