Hi

My wearbear is 77 now and I need advice on wehre to put skill points from now
on. My highest char is only 89 and I know after 86 it start to level REAL slow
so I figure he has like bout 10 points left maybe more but 10 for sure at
least. I maxed out wearbear and lycanthropy and maul and heart of wolverine.
would 10 points best go into shockwave? or maybe carrion vine or myabe cyclone
armor or hunger? or split them up somehow like get carrion vine and rest in
cyclone armor or something? or would they help his grizzly more? like put them
in dire wolf to give him more life or in grizzly to do more damage? it says he
has like almost 2000 life when I summon him but he die fast. Maybe cuz he has
no resists or something I know my necros skellies dont have half that much life
and they never die as fast as Yogi does. Im thinking trying to make him
stronger would help but not sure if 10 would help or just be waste and go
better someplace else. what do u all think?

I've never gotten a werebear anywhere near that high, but I do have a
couple of comments. First off, you do realize that if you invest in
Cyclone Armor, you can only cast it in human form, right? And why
Heart of Wolverine instead of Oak Sage? If it were me and I was trying
to keep Yogi alive, I'd probably invest those points in Oak Sage, but
it would be better if it had been maxed.

Hi yeah I know but he is human sometimes. human in town and every little bit
when he at quiet spot or like right b4 going down stairs or something or
fighting a big boss I turn him human and back to wearbear to restart timer on
it so he wont turn human in middle of fight so he could cast cyclone armor in
those times time but would 10 points or anypoints make it useful or is it not
since it wont have any synergies helping it? He uses wolverine cuz he has over
2300 life already as wearbear but cant hit side of a barn without help. I
figured he needed boost to his attack rating more than life and damage boost
would help to.

Ok, fair enough, but now Yogi's paying the price for that decision ;-)
And I really don't know how much Cyclone Armor would help without the
synergies, like I said you're *way* beyond where I've gotten with any
Druid (I have one who would have been in NM if he hadn't bailed out of
the rush game he found himself in from Act 2, but he still had Act 2
equipment, and he's a Wolf anyway), not to mention a Werebear, and I
usually only use Cyclone Armor if I have it on an item.
