Stone Burst – Druid Build for Diablo 4 (Season 9)

Build Introduction

Stone Burst is a satisfyingly impactful Core Earth Skill that can be channeled and grown in size, or held to pulse minor damage within its area. With Aspect of Anticline Burst, Stone Bursts grown to max radius will always Overpower.

• Earth Spike can be taken for convenience as a Basic Spirit Builder, especially while leveling and gearing. Claw is useful for shapeshifting buffs maintenance.
• (Leveling) Before getting access to Sinister Tendrils Paragon Node, swap Blood Howl for Poison Creeper to apply Poison for Envenom.
• Both Petrify and Cataclysm are viable, with Cataclysm being easier Spirit Management but less topend damage. Pair Cataclysm with Mjölnic Ryng, and check the Uniques section to see what else to change to accomodate the playstyle.

If you are missing skill points, complete Renown events in each zone. See how these Skills play in the Rotation and Gameplay section.

Druid Class Mechanic – Spirit Boons

Druids unlock powerful Spirit Boon passives, giving offerings to the animal spirits to receive their Blessing. Once fully unlocked, activate the final Boon by Spirit Bonding with one of the four animal spirits to take two passives from that row.

If playing with Cataclysm, use Overload over Masochistic for easy Poison Appllication, and Calamity over Energize.

Druid’s primary resource is Spirit. See the Spirit Management Section on how to keep casting!

Uniques and Mythic Uniques

The following Unique Items are required, recommended, or optionally beneficial for the Stone Burst Druid

• Stone of Vehemen is a simple Damage Reduction and Damage Multiplier buff to the final explosion of Stone Burst. The Damage To Crowd Controlled Enemies instead of Lucky Hit is good for Earthen Devastation but less Lucky Hit can mean fewer Energize Spirit Boon or other Lucky Hit triggers. Use this over a Legendary Totem if your Spirit Management is good.

• Vasily’s Prayer is a strong source of Fortify and makes Stone Burst a Werebear skill. This enables the maintenance of several strong multipliers like Bestial Rampage and Quickshift and granting auras including Survival Instincts while the Form is active.

• (Before Mythic) Insatiable Fury is a strong defensive Unique Item, and grants skill ranks to Werebear skills, including Stone Burst because Vasily’s Prayer makes Stone Burst a Werebear Skill. This chest also helps to maintain shapeshifting bonuses like Heightened Senses or Quickshift by keeping the Werebear Form active between combat.

• Tibault’s Will is a tidy damage multiplier and periodic source of Spirit. Enhanced Earthen Bulwark and if used, Aspect of Metamorphosis provide sources for Unstoppable.

Optional Playstyle Unique Items

• Airidah’s Inexorable Will is a usable Unique Item that shines in farm content at the cost of some top-end damage. It will give periodic grips from casts of Petrify, which happen often thanks to our Runeword setup. Masterwork the Willpower%.

• Mjölnic Ryng is a viable optional playstyle variant item that can make Spirit Management less of a concern for most druid builds. For the Stone Burst Druid, this allows for easy casts of Stone Bursts while Cataclysm is active, as well as providing a strong damage multiplier. To play into this Unique, make the following changes:
  • Exchange ranks and passives in Petrify for their equivalent skill ranks in Cataclysm, and ranks in Catastrophe for Endless Tempest.
  • Exchange any Resource tempers on Amulet and Rings for Ultimate Efficiency —  Druid – Cataclysm Cooldown Reduction.
  • Run the Zec Rune for Cataclysm cooldown reduction.
  • Exchange Masochistic Boon for Overload for easy Poisoning,
  • Exchange Energize Spirit Boon for Calamity.
  • Maintain Cataclysm when engaging enemies.

Mythic Unique Items

• Shroud of False Death – This Chest can be a strong option, offering +1 to all Skill Passives. That includes several offensive multipliers, utility choices, and defensive gains. Masterwork the All Stats.

• Ring of Starless Skies is a high value Mythic with strong Gear Affixes, high damage multiplier and Resource Cost Reduction for the Spirit-hungry Stone Burst. Masterwork the Attack Speed or Critical Strike Chance.

Gems and Runewords

Listed below are the recommended Gem and Runeword setups for the Stone Burst Druid:

Gems

Weapon Gems	Armor Gems	Jewelry Gems
Grand Ruby for Overpower Damage	Grand Sapphire for Willpower	Grand Skull until Armor Cap at 1000 Armor, then Grand Diamond for All Resistance

Horadric Jewels

Seasonal Players can use these Horadric Jewels, placed in jewelry gear slots. Check out the Horadric Spell section for all available options.

Jewel	Description
Willbreaker	Physical damage you deal shatters enemies’ spirits, causing them to take 40% more Physical damage for 6 seconds. This effect applies when first damaging a Boss or Elite, or when they are affected by Crowd Control.
Idol From Below	You gain 6% primary stat, 6% maximum life and you are always Unhindered. However, you will be hunted in Sanctuary’s darkest places by Jewel Guardians who were entombed to protect this relic.
Elemental Brand	Your Catalytic Skill deals 33% damage of your Infusion’s element over 3 seconds. Lucky Hit: Dealing damage of your Infusion’s element has up to a 33% chance to trigger its secondary effect.

Runewords

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

Runeword Combination	Runeword Effects
Igni Yom	Igni – Gain: 25 Offering. Stores Offering every 0.3 seconds. Cast a Non-Basic Skill to gain the stored Offering. Yom – 500 Offering Cooldown: 5 Seconds. Overflow: Increased Duration. Evoke the Druid’s Petrify, Stunning enemies and restoring Spirit.
Lith Gar	Lith – Gain: 25 Offering. Stand still while fighting for 0.3 seconds. Gar – Requires: 25 Offering. Overflow: Gain Multiple Stacks. Cooldown: 1 seconds. Gain 2.5% Critical Strike Chance for 5 seconds, up to 25%.

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.

Periodic casts of Petrify will be a strong Stun, Critical Strike Damage multiplier and Spirit Generator. Tempering for Petrify Duration will mean significant uptime on Petrify. Gar is an easy access way to gain Critical Strike.

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

• Offering Efficiency: Other Ritual options such as Poc for Spend Resource, Bac for Move, or Feo for get Crowd Controlled may trigger more often.
• Spirit Management: Poc Lum in combination can give strong Spirit Refund. Que Invocation for Earthen Bulwark can also give spirit back with Tibault’s Will.
• Gathering: Kry can be an efficient way to gather enemies together.

Paragon Board

The following are the preferred Glyphs, Boards, and pathing recommended for making the most of the Stone Burst 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 stricter pathing to take all most 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.

Horadric Spell (Season 9)

Season 9: Sins of the Horadrim offers seasonal Powers accessed from a Powers tab on the character Sheet and Horadric Jewels placed into Jewelry slots to augment these Powers.

The Horadric Catalyst is equipped to a Skill on the Skill Bar, triggered on the Skill’s use. One Infusion adds effects and modifies the damage type of the Catalyst, and three Arcana enhance the Catalyst or provide extra effects on Catalyst trigger.

Pushing

Type	Power	Description
Catalyst, Attached to Stone Burst	Astral Pillar	Shape an Ethereal Column that Taunts for 3.0 seconds. Piercing waves flow from it and deal damage, until you create another one or move too far away.
Infusion	Corrosive Vapor	Your Spell Catalyst now deals Poison and or Poisoning damage. Bonus: Enemies damaged by it take 150% Poisoning damage over 4 seconds. This effect can only happen on each enemy every 3 seconds. While equipped, your Poison Damage Bonus is equal to that of your highest Damage Type Bonus. Rank 5: Deactivates monster Vampiric effects for 5 seconds.
Arcana	Fractured Core	Denial – Your Catalyst deactivates monster Damage Resistance Aura effects for 2.5 seconds, but you take 10% more stacking damage for the same time (+0.5 each rank).

Arcana	Bloody Charm	Denial – Your Catalyst gains a specialized Execute effect for non-Boss enemies with 10% or less Life. (+2% each rank). Astral Pillar: Will launch additional waves towards Executable non-Boss enemies to Execute them.

Most Catalysts are functional and can be played by preference. Other setups can work outside push content, such as:

• (Speedfarm) Propulsion with Floaty Bobble, Gleaming Conduit and Bloody Charm blinks to enemies, and grants movement speed on execute.

Horadric Jewels

Use these Jewels, placed in jewelry gear slots, to enhance the Horadric Spell:

Jewel	Description
Willbreaker	Physical damage you deal shatters enemies’ spirits, causing them to take 40%[x] more Physical damage for 6 seconds. This effect applies when first damaging a Boss or Elite, or when they are affected by Crowd Control.
Idol From Below	You gain 6% primary stat, 8% maximum life and you are always Unhindered. However, you will be hunted in Sanctuary’s darkest places by Jewel Guardians who were entombed to protect this relic.
Elemental Brand	Your Catalytic Skill deals 33% damage of your Infusion’s element over 3 seconds. Lucky Hit: Dealing damage of your Infusion’s element has up to a 33% chance to trigger its secondary effect.

There are some situationally useful Jewels to consider:

• (Resource) Spark of Creation can be useful Resource generation, as needed.
• (Qol) While Idol From Below is powerful, If the Jeweled Guardians are bothersome, replace it with another.

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 Stone Burst Druid:

Main Mercenary – Varyana, the Berserker

• Core Skill: Cleave, Hysteria, Bloodthirst, Bloodlust

Reinforcement – Raheir, the Shieldbearer

• Reinforcement Ability: Crater
• Opportunity: Stone Burst

Hysteria and Bloodlust will both give strong Attack Speed bonuses.

For a Spirit Management setup, try Raheir’s Iron Wolf’s Call for periodic free casts of Stone Burst, or Aldkin’s Ember’s Gift for Spirit Per Second while in Storm of Fire.

Build Mechanics

Rotation and Playstyle

Before Combat:

1. Claw in place or Blood Howl to activate Werewolf Shapeshifting buffs Quickshift and Heightened Senses.
2. Maintain Hurricane for bonuses including Stormshifter’s Aspect.

When Engaging enemies:

1. Petrify dangerous enemies for a large Critical Strike Damage multiplier, Spirit generation and Stun.
2. Seasonal: Aim at your enemies to apply the Wandering Death’s Chest Beam debuff and damage when channeling Stone Burst
3. Channel and grow your Stone Burst, releasing the attack at Max Radius to Overpower the burst.
4. Claw as filler to maintain Spirit.

Claw and other Skills that change your Form do not need to hit enemies to gain the Shapeshifting benefits. It can often be beneficial to keybind and tap Force Hold to be able to cast in place.

Skills, Support and Synergies

The Stone Burst Druid is a simple gameplay cycle:

• Have the Spirit to cast Stone Burst.
• Channel your Stone Burst to grow it to max radius, casting a large zone Overpower burst of damage.

Stone Burst is our high-damage Core Skill, and the build is centered around it. The base form of Stone Burst is held and channeled to grow up to two times, then released to deal high-impact damage.

• Aspect of Anticline Burst allows Stone Burst to Overpower when cast at Max Radius.
• This guaranteed Overpower means we do not have to invest into variable availability Overpower sources like Provocation or Obsidian Slam Spirit Boon.
• Stone Burst deals Physical Damage, but as an Earth Skill, will be able to take advantage of Nature and Earth damage modifiers.
• Enhanced Stone Burst gives Stone Burst a skill shot for a higher multiplier where the first radius of the Stone Burst would be. This can unfortunately get shifted when the Earth Augments double-cast triggers, placing two Stone Bursts side by side.
• With Vasily’s Prayer, Stone Burst will also be a Werebear Skill and receive Werebear and Shapeshifting modifiers as well as helping to maintain Shapeshifting buffs and bonuses such as Survival Instincts, Quickshift, and Heightened Senses.

Supporting Skills

• Earthen Bulwark gives Unstoppable, and if used with Tibault’s Will is a means for Spirit and a damage multiplier.
• Claw is a filler Basic Attack that can help maintain Werewolf buffs like Heightened Senses or Bestial Rampage. While leveling and still using a Basic for Spirit Generation, Earth Spike or Wind Shear may be preferred to accommodate Stone Burst‘s ranged playstyle. Once Spirit Management is solved and you do not need a builder, this can be swapped for options like Innate Debilitating Roar or Poison Creeper.
• Blood Howl gives an Attack Speeed bonus, a heal for Starlight Aspect also helps maintain shapeshifting bonuses.
• Hurricane maintains a zone of damage reduction and gives bonuses like Stormshifter’s Aspect.

Ultimate and Key Passive

Petrify is our Ultimate Skill. This is a strong Spirit gain, a multiplicative layer of Critical Strike Damage and Crowd Control Stun application. If you do not need the healing from Masochistic Spirit Boon, Calm before the Storm can be a strong choice for more total casts of Petrify.

The Key Passive for this build is Ursine Strength. This is a heavy boost to Overpower damage, and is further multiplied from other Overpower sources like Survival Instincts. All casts of Stone Burst will Overpower thanks to Aspect of Anticline Burst.

Poison for Envenom is maintained by Lucky Hits from Legendary Paragon Node Sinister Tendrils. If you find you no longer need to use Claw to build Spirit, you can swap in Poison Creeper to passively assist with Poison application to enemies.

Spirit Management

Stone Burst is a Spirit-hungry build, especially when using the skill passive multipliers Raging Stone Burst and Wild Impulses. Spirit is managed through several means:

• Energize Spirit Boon grants a lucky hit to give Spirit.
• Gift of the Stag Energize Boon gives higher Maximum Spirit and Spirit Per Second.
• Tibault’s Will with Enhanced Earthen Bulwark and if used, Aspect of Metamorphosis to grant Spirit on Unstoppable.
• Petrify gives Spirit on cast.
• The Ancestral Guidance paragon board gives Spirit on Kill, Resource Generation and Maximum Spirit increases.
• Gear Affixes like Spirit per second and Chance on Hit to grant Spirit.
• If used, Starlight Aspect can give Spirit after healing 20% or overhealing 200% of Max life. Masochistic Boon, potions, and if used, Skinwalker’s Aspect all provide sources of healing. Willpower improves healing received.
• If used, Mjölnic Ryng maxes Spirit and makes Stone Burst free while Cataclysm is active.

In an Endgame state, these sources are sufficient for Spirit management. If these are not sufficient while leveling and gearing, consider one or more of the following supplementary options:

• Use the Spirit Management Runeword setup Poc Lum.
• Use Earthen Might Key Passive.
• Gear for Spirit Per Second gear affixes on helm, chest or boots.
• Gear for Spirit on Kill, Resource Cost Reduction, or Chance to gain Resource on Weapons.
• Target Resource Generation for Tempers and Masterworking.
• Use Aspect of Quicksand as a Utility Aspect and Aspect of the Umbral as a Resource Aspect.
• Worst case, use your Basic Skill as a Spirit Builder.

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 9 Updates

Not much change functionally for the Stone Burst Druid this season. Despite buffs to Ursine Strength, the Overpower bonus scaling being removed will affect the build’s topend output. With the change to Mjölnic Ryng, the Cataclysm variant play is just straight worse than Petrify, if still convenient in farm. Poison application for seasonal players with Elemental Brand will be easier. Then despite the buffs to Nature’s Fury, a Stone Burst Nature’s Fury variant just does not seem competitive at all, so the section is dropped for now. Earthen Might may be the better Key Passive, though the uptime rng may not allow it to be.

The following list details the important changes in the Season 9 Patch Updates that are specific to the Stone Burst Druid. For general Season 9 information, check out our Season 9 Hub.

Itemization:

• Mjölnic Ryng damage reduced to 20-40%.
• Overpower bonus scaling removed.
• Petrify Duration Temper moved from Nature Magic Innovation to Werebear Innovation.

Skills and Stats:

• Vigilance Damage Reduction reduced from 7/14/21% to 5/10/15%.
• Claw Damage increased from 28% to 80%.
• Ursine Strength
  • Previously: Gain 30% additional Maximum Life while in Werebear form and for 3 seconds after leaving Werebear form. While Healthy, deal 15% increased damage, and 70% increased Overpower damage.
  • Now: Gain 30% Maximum Life, 20% more damage, and a 100% Overpower bonus while in Werebear form and for 8 seconds after leaving it.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where Shroud of False Death also granted bonuses to Spirit Boons.
