Shred – Druid Build Guide for Diablo 4 (Season 10)

Build Introduction

The Shred Druid dashes and rips into the foes of Sanctuary, every strike echoing the ferocity of a werewolf under the moonlit sky. Gather and destroy enemies with powerful Shred and cleave bursts of lightning with your Stormclaw’s Aspect.

This is a Dire Wolf’s Aspect Grizzly Rage Shred that will play smoothly in both farm and push content.

Legendary Aspects

Gear Slots with multiple options are listed in recommended priority. Any slot with an Optional Mythic Unique or Unique Item will include a valid alternative legendary power to use while still leveling and gearing. Combine these with the right stat priorities.

Slot	Aspect	Unique/Legendary Aspect Power
Weapon	Unique – Waxing Gibbous	Killing an enemy with Shred grants Stealth for 2 seconds. Breaking Stealth with an attack grants guaranteed Critical Strikes for 1-4 seconds.
Totem	Aspect of the Blurred Beast	Shred deals 55-75% more damage, and Shred’s first dash lands up to 4 additional strikes based on distance travelled.
Helm	Mythic – Heir of Perdition Vigorous Aspect	Give in to hatred and earn Lilith’s Favor, increasing your damage dealt by 60%. Slaughter enemies to briefly steal Lilith’s Favor from Nearby allies.
Chest	Mythic – Shroud of False Death Unique – Mad Wolf’s Glee Juggernaut’s Aspect	If you haven’t attacked in the last 2 seconds, gain Stealth and 40% Movement Speed.
Gloves	Stormclaw’s Aspect	Critical Strikes with Shred deal 40-60% of the damage dealt as Lightning damage to the target and surrounding enemies.
Pants	Dire Wolf’s Aspect	Grizzly Rage is now a Werewolf Skill and Shapeshifts you into a Dire Werewolf. Dire Werewolves gain 20-40% Movement Speed and 20-40% Spirit Cost Reduction instead of Damage Reduction. In addition, kills Heal you for 10% of your Maximum Life.
Boots	Aspect of the Agile Wolf	Shred gains a 4th dash attack that hits all surrounding enemies, deals 20-60% increased damage, and Knocks Down enemies for 2 seconds.
Amulet	Aspect of the Rabid Bear	While Grizzy Rage is active, your direct damage is converted into Poison damage, you deal 40-80% more Poison damage, and you passively spread Rabies.
Ring 1	Aspect of the Rampaging Werebeast	The duration of Grizzly Rage is increased by 3-10 seconds. In addition, Critical Strikes while Grizzly Rage is active increase your Critical Strike Damage by 5% for the duration, up to a maximum of 100%.
Ring 2	Mythic – Ring of Starless Skies Aspect of the Unsatiated	Spending your Primary Resource reduces the Resource cost of your Skills and increases your damage by 10% for 3 seconds, up to 50%.

Stat Priority and Tempering Affixes

Each line of affixes is listed in order of importance, and some alternatives are given. The bolded affixes are the most important targets for Masterworking upgrades. Check the Tempering guide and Masterworking guide for more details about these topics.

Slot	Gearing Affixes	Tempering Affixes
Weapon – Waxing Gibbous	Critical Strike Damage Blood Howl Grants Stealth for 1-4 seconds Ranks to Shred Ranks to Toxic Claws
1 Handed Dagger	Willpower Max Life Chance to Restore Resource Critical Strike Damage	Werewolf Augments – Chance for Shred to Deal Double Damage Werewolf Finesse – Werewolf Attack Speed
Totem	Cooldown Reduction Willpower Lucky Hit Chance Chance to Heal Chance to Restore Resource	Werewolf Augments – Chance for Shred to Deal Double Damage Werewolf Finesse – Werewolf Attack Speed
Helm – Heir of Perdition	Critical Strike Chance Lucky Hit Chance Movement Speed Ranks in Core Skills
Helm – Legendary Aspect	Willpower Max Life Cooldown Reduction Armor	Shapeshifting Endurance – Blood Howl Cooldown Reduction Worldly Fortune – Lucky Hit Chance
Chest – Shroud of False Death	All Stats Maximum Life Damage on Next Attack After Entering Stealth Resource Generation

Boots – Legendary Aspect	Implicit: Attacks Reduce Evade’s Cooldown By 1.5 Seconds Willpower Movement Speed Max Life Spirit Per Second	Druid Motion – Ranks to Digitigrade Gait OR Movement Speed Worldly Fortune – Lucky Hit Chance
Amulet – Legendary Aspect	Willpower% Ranks to Envenom Ranks to Toxic Claws Ranks to Quickshift	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Ultimate Efficiency —  Druid – Grizzly Rage Cooldown Reduction
Ring – Ring of Starless Skies	Attack Speed Critical Strike Chance Lucky Hit Chance Ranks to Core Skills
Rings – Legendary Aspect	Attack Speed Willpower Chance to Make Enemies Vulnerable Max Life	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Ultimate Efficiency —  Druid – Grizzly Rage Cooldown Reduction

Armor cap is 1000 for up to 85% Physical Damage Reduction. This is generally reached with either one Armor Gear Affix and one Total Armor% Temper, or using a Juggernaut’s Aspect. With Brawn Over Brains, the Armor cap becomes 795.

After gearing, look at progression systems like Paragon next.

Uniques and Mythic Uniques

The Shred Druid uses the following Unique items:

• Waxing Gibbous gives strong coverage of full Critical Strike Chance, which allows the player to gear other affixes. Ranks in Toxic Claws with Aspect of the Rabid Bear turning all damage into Poison type offers a multiplier that is particularly strong, and can set Waxing Gibbous above a 2h or dagger/totem setup.

• (Before Mythic) Mad Wolf’s Glee is an excellent offensive Unique Item that gives high ranks to Werewolf Skills.

Mythic Unique Items

• Ring of Starless Skies is a powerful Resource Cost Reduction tool and damage multiplier, and can be useful for making gameplay smoother.

• Heir of Perdition has Strong Gear Affixes and a steady damage multiplier. The multiplier can be stolen occasionally from others who also use this helm for a higher damage multiplier.

• Shroud of False Death gives +1 rank to all Skill Passives, which means several bonuses to Damage Multipliers, Damage Reductions, Resistances, Fortify, Healing and Critical Strike Chance. The All Stats is a significant contributor to activating Paragon Rare Node Bonuses.

Gems and Runewords

The following are the recommended Gem and Runeword setups for the Shred Druid.

Gems

Weapon Gems	Armor Gems	Jewelry Gems
Grand Emerald for Critical Strike Damage	Grand Sapphire for Willpower	Grand Diamond for All Resistance

Runewords

Use these Runeword combinations for the Shred Druid, placed in Armor slots.

Runeword Combination	Runeword Effects
Moni Xan	Moni – Gain: 100 Offering. Cast 2 Mobility Skills. Xan – 300 Offering. Your next attack will cause your hits to be a guaranteed Critical Strike and Overpower for 0.35 seconds. Overflow: Increased Duration
Igni Que	Igni – Gain: 25 Offering. Stores Offering every 0.3 seconds. Cast a Non-Basic Skill to gain the stored Offering. Que – Requires: 300 Offering. Overflow: Increased Duration. Cooldown: 1 second. Evoke the Druid’s Earthen Bulwark, granting yourself a Barrier.

Runewords use a conditional Rune of Ritual to generate Offering. The Offering is consumed by the Rune of Invocation to trigger its effect. Runes replace Gems in gear with two sockets. Up to two sets of Runeword Pairs can be placed at a time.

Shred is a fast attack and has the Mobility Tag, meaning Moni will work as a trigger, giving high volumes of Critical Overpowers with Xan.

Que gives periodic casts of Earthen Bulwark for Barrier, Fortify, and Unstoppable. It also forces form change for Chaos Perk Wild Transformations.

Other combinations can also work well; adjust to the content you are running. These may include:

• Push – Qax can be used as a strong multiplier, replacing Que, but make sure you have no Spirit generation issues.
• Gathering/ Farming – Kry rune for Vortex can be a strong quality of life increase. Yom could also be used with Airidah’s Inexorable Will.
• Early Gearing – While leveling and gearing before legendary Runes become accessible, many Magic and Rare runewords, such as Gar for Critical Strike Chance, will be viable.

Paragon Board

The following are the preferred Glyphs, Boards, and pathing recommended for making the most of the Shred Druid.

The road to max Paragon is long. The above Paragon tabs show the following:

• The BASE SETUP tab spends 50 fewer points than the max 328 points, taking a stricter pathing to take almost all Legendary, Rare, and Magic Nodes, and activates all Glyph Nodes with their secondary effects.
• The FULL SETUP tab completes the paragon board in its final form, filling in the rest of the board to give additional additive bonuses, especially within the Glyph areas.

Glyphs have two significant breakpoint increases. At level 15, the glyph grows in radius and gains a special effect. At level 46, the glyph grows to its max radius and gains a strong conditional damage multiplier.

Glyphs are placed as if they are at least level 15+ in radius. Total Boards placed are now limited to a max of 5; the Starter Board and four Class Boards. Rotate boards as necessary.

Season 10 Mechanics

Chaos Perks

Chaos Perks are the latest flavor of seasonal power, offering a selection of one Unique and 3 other powers of any combination. Perks are acquired from Seasonal Reputation or from Bartuc in Infernal Hordes. Here is the recommended setup for the Shred Druid.

Power	Description
Brawn Over Brains	Gain the following: 100-200% Maximum Life +50-100% Healing Received 75-125% Overpower Damage However, your Maximum Resistances are reduced by 25%, and your damage reduction from Armor is capped at 60%.
Purge the Infected	Your Core Skills also apply 100-200% of their Base damage as Poisoning over 4 seconds. Dealing direct damage to a Poisoned enemy spends 5 Spirit to be a guaranteed Critical Strike that deals 30-60% increase damage.
Overabundance	Every 100 Spirit you generate above your Maximum increases your damage by 50-100% for 5 seconds. This bonus stacks up to 3 times, but does not refresh.
Wild Transformations	Wild Transformations – Legendary Shapeshifting into a new form uses a free Skill and grants an additional bonus for 5 seconds: Werewolf uses Blood Howl, 10-20%[x] Critical Strike Damage Werebear uses Debilitating Roar, 10-20% Damage Reduction Human uses Cyclone Armor, 10-20%[x] Attack Speed

Thanks to Que forcing form, we can get good value from Wild Transformations, periodically gripping enemies with Preserving Cyclone Armor.

Chaos Armors

Chaos Armors are a selection of generic and class Unique Items that can drop as empowered versions in any Armor Slot besides their native slot. For example, a ChaoticFists of Fate could drop as a helm, chest, pants, and boots. These items open many possibilities, but have a very large pool of items with low drop rates and are untradable, meaning a perfect setup may take a while, and many combinations will be effective in the meantime.

The best Chaos Armors for the Shred Druid include several high multiplier options, including:

• Malefic Crescent significantly boosts Lupine Ferocity.
• Banished Lord’s Talisman gives frequent and stronger Overpowered Attacks.

The following is a recommended Chaotic setup for the Shred Druid. Recommended Masterworks will be in Bold.

	Slot	Gearing Affixes	Tempering Affixes
Dagger	Aspect of the Blurred Beast	Willpower Max Life Critical Strike Damage Chance to Restore Resource	Werewolf Augments – Chance for Shred to Deal Double Damage Werewolf Finesse – Werewolf Attack Speed
Totem	Stormclaw’s Aspect	Cooldown Reduction Willpower Lucky Hit Chance Chance to Restore Resource	Werewolf Augments – Chance for Shred to Deal Double Damage Werewolf Finesse – Werewolf Attack Speed
Helm	Fists of Fate (Helm)	Lucky Hit Chance Critical Strike Chance Attack Speed Lucky Hit: Chance to make enemies Vulnerable
Chest	Mad Wolf’s Glee (Replace with Shroud of False Death) Igni Xan	Maximum Life Lupine Ferocity’s Damage Bonus Werewolf Attack Speed Ranks to Digitigrade Gait
Gloves	Dire Wolf’s Aspect	Ranks to Shred Attack Speed Willpower Max Life	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Worldly Fortune – Lucky Hit Chance
Pants	Banished Lord’s Talisman (Pants) AhuYom	Maximum Life Overpower Damage Attack Speed Ranks to Core Skills
Boots	Malefic Crescent (Boots)	Ranks to Feral Aptitude Werewolf Critical Strike Damage Willpower% Movement Speed while Shapeshifted into a Werewolf
Amulet	Aspect of the Rabid Bear	Willpower% Ranks to Envenom Ranks to Toxic Claws Ranks to Quickshift	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Druid Motion – Ranks in Digitigrade Gait
Ring	Aspect of the Unsatiated (Replace with Ring of Starless Skies)	Attack Speed Willpower Max Life Chance to Make Enemies Vulnerable	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Ultimate Efficiency —  Druid – Grizzly Rage Cooldown Reduction
Ring	Aspect of the Rampaging Werebeast	Attack Speed Willpower Max Life Chance to Make Enemies Vulnerable	Shapeshifting Finesse – Grizzly Rage Duration Ultimate Efficiency —  Druid – Grizzly Rage Cooldown Reduction

Note this setup does not include Waxing Gibbous. We opt for a Dagger instead to make more Aspect room, and because Guaranteed Critical Strike Chance is already covered with Purge the Infected. Dagger is chosen over other weapon types for their attack speed.

Other Chaotic Considerations

• Use Song of the Mountain if you are not armor-capped.
• Farm – Airidah’s Inexorable Will with Yom can be an acceptable setup. Yom will also help keep Overabundance capped.
• Dire Wolf’s Aspect is essential for using Shred during Grizzly Rage.
• There may be other setups that are competitive, including non-Grizzly Rage builds that use Petrify instead. This would open up more Chaos Armor slot options, like not using to use Dire Wolf’s Aspect, Aspect of the Rabid Bear, and Aspect of the Rampaging Werebeast. A quick and dirty exchange would be:
  • Swap Grizzly Rage for equivalent ranks in Petrify.
  • Exchange Dire Wolf’s Aspect for Aspect of the Agile Wolf.
  • Move Aspect of the Blurred Beast to Ring, and put Aspect of the Unsatiated to Amulet.
  • Add in Chaotic Fists of Fate or Chaotic Crown of Lucion if your Spirit can handle it.
  • For farm content, throw in Chaotic Airidah’s Inexorable Will. Lots of yoinks with Yom.

Mercenaries

Once unlocked, Mercenaries are followers that aid the Player in combat. A main mercenary is chosen to fight alongside you, granting strong buffs or perks, and a secondary Mercenary is chosen to periodically Reinforce you under a chosen Opportunity condition.

The following Mercenary options are recommended for the Shred Druid:

Main Mercenary – Varyana, the Berserker

• Skills: Cleave, Hysteria, Bloodthirst, Bloodlust

Reinforcement – Raheir, the Shieldbearer

• Reinforcement Ability – Crater
• Opportunity – Shred

Hysteria and Bloodlust will both give strong Attack Speed bonuses. Other setups are valid, such as Subo’s Cover Fire and minimap target tracking as high quality of life, or Raheir if you need more Armor or Resistance.

Build Mechanics

Rotation and Playstyle

1. Prebuild stacks of Quickshift by alternating Maul and Shred.
2. Shred to approach enemies.
3. Activate Grizzly Rage to enter Dire Werewolf Form.
4. Blood Howl to trigger Stealth, activating the Critical Strike bonus for Waxing Gibbous.
5. Cast Shred on enemies.

Use Earthen Bulwark as necessary for Fortify and as a source of Unstoppable to break Crowd Controls. Earthen Bulwark or Cyclone Armor will not be available for Active Use during Grizzly Rage. You will still benefit from Bulwark via Que triggers and still receive the passive defense boost of Cyclone Armor.

Maul does not need to hit a target for Werebear Shapeshifting buffs. Make sure you’re familiar with your Force Hold keybind to easily Maul in place.

Skills, Support, and Synergies

The Shred Druid groups and dashes into enemies for strong damage. Shred is a high mobility skill that is efficient for killing and then moving on.

• Stormclaw’s Aspect causes a secondary hit of splashed damage when Shred Critically Strikes.
• If used, Waxing Gibbous will give full Critical Strike Chance, guaranteeing Stormclaw’s Aspect to deal its splash damage.

Primal Shred is taken for the extra Dash mobility and the blanket Critical Strike Damage buff for all attacks with Shred. For farm and speed content, it is the simple choice.

Supporting Skills

• Blood Howl gives attack speed, healing, and Stealth when used with Waxing Gibbous. With Waxing Gibbous and Shroud of False Death benefiting from Stealth, this means strong bursts of Shred damage.
• Cyclone Armor is mostly taken for its passive defense boost, which is active even during Grizzly Rage. Thanks to Chaos Perk Wild Transformations and Que forcing a form change, the grip from Preserving Cyclone Armor will get good value.
• Earthen Bulwark provides Unstoppable, Fortify, and Barrier as needed. During Grizzly Rage, triggers of Que Rune will force shift.
• Maul is useful for prebuilding shapeshifting buffs like Quickshift. This is a flex skill that could be exchanged for other useful things, like Natural Rabies to help spread Poisoned Condition.

Grizzly Rage

This build uses Grizzly Rage as its Ultimate Skill. With Dire Wolf’s Aspect, we become the Dire Werewolf.

Dire Werewolf Grizzly Rage grants Unstoppable for its duration, grants movement speed and healing on kill, and a damage buff that grows over time. With Aspect of the Rabid Bear, our damage type for all attacks becomes Poison, which helps unify several multipliers like Toxic Claws. Thanks to Aspect of the Rabid Bear, enemies will be periodically Poisoned via a passive spread of Rabies for multipliers like Envenom.

Grizzly Rage’s cooldown can be reduced while Grizzly Rage is active. Any Skill not tuned to Grizzly Rage, such as Earth or Storm Skills, will be unavailable while Grizzly Rage is active. Some still give benefits, such as the passive defense of Cyclone Armor.

Only one point is invested into Grizzly Rage to be functional, and further points only reduce the cooldown.

Grizzly Rage has a capped duration, but we gain or extend Grizzly Rage duration with:

• Aspect of the Rampaging Werebeast gives up to 10 seconds of extra duration.
• Kills extend the duration by 1 second.
• Overpowering Bosses extends duration by 5 seconds. Xan will periodically give instances of Overpower, giving easy coverage.
• Offensive Tempers on gear give more duration on Grizzly Rage.

If this is not sufficient to maintain Grizzly Rage for most of the time or your downtime becomes too disruptive, consider one or more of the following options:

• Exchange the Swooping Attacks Spirit Boon for Calm Before the Storm.
• Exchange Energize Spirit Boon for Calamity Spirit Boon.
• Target your Mastercrafts towards Grizzly Rage Duration or Cooldown.

Key Passive

Lupine Ferocity is our Key Passive, giving frequent Critical Strikes and a strong Critical Strike Damage multiplier.

Spirit Management

We have several sources of Spirit Cost Reduction and Spirit Generation that make Spirit not a difficult issue to manage for this build.

• Gift of the Stag Spirit Boon gives 10 Spirit Per Second.
• The Wolf’s Energize Spirit Boon gives Lucky Hit to Restore Spirit.
• Dire Wolf’s Aspect gives Spirit Cost Reduction during Grizzly Rage.
• Lust for Carnage Critical Strikes grant resource.
• Ancestral Guidance nodes for Spirit on Kill and Max Spirit.
• Aspect of the Unsatiated granting Spirit on Critical Strike. With Waxing Gibbous, that’s all attacks while the Critical Strike Chance buff is active.

In Early Gearing and Leveling, consider doing the following for Spirit Generation and Management:

• Use the Gar rune to increase Critical Strike Chance, increasing Aspect of the Unsatiated trigger chance.
• Use the Wolf’s Energize Spirit Boon.
• Adjust Gear affixes: Chance to restore resource on Weapon, Resource Generation on Rings, Resource Temper Manuals on Jewelry, or Spirit Per Second on Helm, Chest, or Boots can all be helpful.
• Worst case in early leveling and gearing, use Maul as a Basic Attack Builder. Replace Debilitating Roar or Hurricane. Maul can be useful for upkeeping Werebear Shapeshifting buffs as well.

Controller vs Keyboard and Mouse

The Shred Druid can play smoother on a controller. When held, Shred can auto-move to the nearest enemies or continue direction if no enemies are in range. The Dashes from casts of Shred auto-aim to the nearest enemy. A keyboard and Mouse can offer better control, allowing you to choose targets to Dash to. Both options are valid. Keyboard and Mouse can also access the auto-aim behavior by going into ESC -> Options -> Gameplay, and changing Skill Toggle Behavior to Toggle All.

Elixirs, Incense, and Health Potions

The Alchemist offers helpful consumables at the cost of foraged materials found throughout Sanctuary.

• Craft Elixir of Advantage II for Attack Speed and Lucky Hit bonuses.
• One of each Incense Category can be used, for a total of three active Incenses at a time. In priority:
  • Defensive – Reddamine Buzz for Max Life, or Song of the Mountain if you need the Armor, up to 1000 armor cap.
  • Core Stat – Blessed Guide for Willpower.
  • Resistance – Soothing Spices for All Resist, All Resist Maximum, and Armor.
• Upgrade your Potion as you level, increasing the instant healing of the potion!

Season 10 Updates

Shred base damage is up, Stormclaw’s Aspect is down, but this is overall positive for us. Grizzly Rage is down, but we will still opt for this Ultimate since it spreads Poisoned, has high aspect multipliers, and offers permanent Unstoppable. We are swapping to Lupine Ferocity Key Passive to make more Chaos Armor room by dropping Wildheart Hunger and Bestial Rampage. Otherwise, there’s not much difference for Shred this season.

The following list details the important changes in the Season 10 Patch Updates that are specific to the Shred Druid. For general Season 10 information, check out our Season 10 Hub.

Itemization:

• Stormclaw’s Aspect Damage reduced from 60-80% to 40-60%.

Skills and Stats:

• Shred
  • First attack damage from 52% to 100%.
  • Second attack damage from 72% to 150%.
  • Third attack damage from 143% to 300%.
• Grizzly Rage
  • Base damage reduced from 60% to 40%.
  • Damage bonus per second reduced from 4% to 1% (capping at 25% rather than 100%).
  • Now begins its cooldown when it’s activated rather than after it ends.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where Grizzly Rage was granting Unstoppable without learning its upgrades.
• Fixed an issue where Grizzly Rage was not removed from the available Skills on your Skill bar while it’s activated.
• Fixed an issue where Grizzly Rage did not periodically increase the player’s damage as expected.
