Since Druids are very into +skills from their equipment, a good class-specific helm is probably the best possible item for your character.
These have bonuses to individual Druid skills as inherent properties, and can also get magical bonuses to Druid skill trees or even all skills. This is in contrast with magic items possessing class-specific Skill Level and Druid Skill Tree prefixes, which may be used by classes other than the Druid without benefiting from the skill modifiers.ĭruids have special Animal Pelts for their class-specific gear. The real difference is that these items can only be used by one character class, and they can have random bonuses to individual skills, much like the ones you see on wands/ staves/ scepters in Diablo II. They have a variety of stats and types, can be found magical, Rare, Unique, and sometimes in Sets as well. A sturdy helm may be one of the best investments an adventurer can make.Ĭlass-specific items are much like other items. More advanced designs include faceted sides to deflect and absorb attacks, noseguards and gorgets to protect the nose and neck, and even visors that close over the face. The simplest designs consist chiefly of a tight-fitting leather or metal cap, securely fastened to remain atop one’s head. The head is one of the most vulnerable and important parts of the body, so protective headgear of all sorts have long been a staple of a decent suit of armor.
