D2 Survivors Druid
The common signature is 1.5 percent of Druid runs. Elemental, summons, and shape-shift all appear in it. I am describing the mix, not crowning one of them.
Three trees, one crowded signature
Trees: Summoning, Shape Shifting, Elemental. Client start: strength 15, dexterity 20, vitality 25, energy 20, hinting energy and vitality. 15,481 runs (7.4 percent), 7,256 players, peak Terror 101, median level 83, Hell median 33:25.
Skills: Molten Boulder 66.3 percent, Spirit of Barbs 60.5, Volcano 57.7, Hurricane 57.0, Solar Creeper 54.9, Fury 50.0. Passives: faster cast rate 80.4, Replenish Life 79.8, Cyclone Armor 77.4. The signature (235 runs, peak 101) lists Fissure, Fury, Hurricane, Shock Wave, Spirit of Barbs, Summon Grizzly, Tornado, Twister, Solar Creeper, and Volcano. Gear: Mara's 17.4, Arachnid Mesh 16.1, Jalal's Mane 15.4.
How I would choose a first card
If the goal is the list above, the first card is an elemental skill, then a summon or Fury once the bar has room. Nothing in the public notes says you must do that. The 101 peak sits on a signature that uses all three trees, so a pure werebear route is not ruled out. It is just not the majority of the skill rates.
Starter plan and late-game direction
Choose an offered elemental starter and improve that damage route first. Add a summon for another presence on the field when offered. Do not read the client attribute hint as an official optimal allocation. This is an editorial starting plan.
The snapshot suggests a mixed elemental route with Molten Boulder, Volcano and Hurricane, plus summon support. Fury is an alternative direction if the gear and cards support it. The common mixed signature is too small to prescribe every slot.
Multiple trees allow different plans, but spreading upgrades too broadly can leave each attack underdeveloped. A peak of 101 says nothing about the usual clear of an elemental or shapeshift build.
Can the first skill be changed?
The opening card offers a starter from each tree (official build 20261017.19, single source). There is no documented individual-card reroll. Akara offers a full re-draft; read the current cost and requirements rather than assuming the old cap. See endgame and items for the next decisions.
Questions
Is there one Druid build?
No. The most common signature is 1.5 percent of runs and it already mixes elemental, summons, and Fury.
What is the Druid Terror peak?
101 on the 2026-10-28 snapshot, second to Paladin's 131. It is a single best floor.
Which helm shows up?
Jalal's Mane is the class-leaning unique on the list, at 15.4 percent of Druid runs. Mara's is still slightly higher.
