Paragon Board for Druid Build
After you reach level 50, it is time for the Paragon Board. The Paragon is different, considering instead of gaining a skill point after every level — you instead get four Paragon points per level that can be applied towards stats such as intelligence, willpower, strength, etc. As you move up on the board, you can unlock glyph sockets that buff your skills.
While it will take some time to get to the available slots, we recommend aiming for Constricting Tendrils and Lust for Carnage Paragon slots. Lucky Hit will give a 15% chance to entangle enemies with vines through Nature Magic, and Lust for Carnage restores 2 Spirit with Critical Strikes with Werewolf Skills.
