resistances where to get boosters

The move from NM to Hell can be quite an awakening for many characters. You appear to be mostly untwinked, so you may want to hit a few NM Baal or Mephisto runs to try to farm up some equipment. Druids often have a deficit in resists, due to using a 2 handed weapon.

Quote:I have been cruising around Nightmare looking for items to help me, but no luck so far. I am not using a shield as I have not found a decent one handed weapon. The best one I found was normal speed, so that is not going to be useful.

A 1 hander is not usually a great choice for a wolf(fury); they are in general much slower than a 2 hander with decent WIAS, besides hitting so much lighter. Also, wolves have a very poor base blocking %, as well as very slow blocking animations. It can be useful for resists or Iron Maiden in a pinch, but not recommended for regular use.

As for buget resist gear, look for a 4 socket armor of some kind. Fill it with ral/ort/tal/thul to taste. you can easily create a +30 all resists armor this way. The same goes for helms. If you are lucky, you can end up with a druid pelt with bonuses to a skill you use, as well as good resists. Gambling rings/ammys/circlets/boots/gloves can yeild some decent resist gear as well.

You may want to read Wereform Central for some equipment ideas, as well as useful attack speed tables.

EDIT: I suppose I should mention that the page I linked to hasn't been updated in a while, but most if not all of it is still accurate; equipment has a few more good options at the higher lvls, but what he has listed is useful.
