The Thorns Bear Druid is a variation of Pulverize Werebear Druid, a popular Diablo 4 endgame build. This Wowhead guide will walk you through the small changes needed in skills, gear, affixes, and consumables to create this alternate version. We also explain the strengths and weaknesses of the Thorns Bear Druid build and how it compares to the default Pulverize Werebear Druid.
Thorns Bear Druid Overview in Diablo 4 Season 4
The Thorns Bear build (aka the Pulverize Porcupine) is a fun variation of the Pulverize Werebear build that relies on the unique as a basis for a Thorns build. While the Druid lacks native Thorns skills, it does have a good Spirit Boon for creating Thorns. Pulverize Werebear is also a very tanky, defensive build, making it a great base on which to build a Thorns Bear.
Imagine wandering into a crowded Helltide group, Pulverizing and Trampling as you go -- but that's not all. As the mobs swarm you, they're tearing themselves apart on your new "claws" -- the Thorns surrounding every part of your being. Ranged casters explode as they try to pierce you from a distance. You can often skip chasing down Ranged trash entirely and let them kill themselves from your Thorns!

We still use most of the skills, gear, Paragon, and consumables recommended for the standard version of this build. For more information about its parent build, the Pulverize Werebear, please see our guide:
Pulverize Werebear Druid Endgame Overview
Thorns Bear Druid Strengths and Weaknesses
Thorns Bear is a fun variant of the Pulverize build. It's easy to pick up because the active skills and rotation do not change from the Pulverize build. There are minor fluctuations with passives to build up even more defense (after all, you're now counting on getting hit more often), but the playstyle is identical. For this reason, the strengths and weaknesses of the Thorns Bear are very similar to those of Pulverize Werebear.

Stat Priority for Bulwark Druid
Stats come from a few sources, including the Altars of Lilith, gear Affixes, and Paragon Nodes. Out of these three, Paragon Nodes will be your most customizable source for building specific stats according to your needs.

How to Play Thorns Bear Druid
As you can see, the active skill arrangement is the same for Thorns Bear Druid as for Pulverize Bear. There are only two skill changes, and both are passives. We also make some changes to our Boons to add Thorns and beef up our overall survivability. We will talk about this in more detail under Class Mechanics.
Other than that, the playstyle and rotation are identical to the original build.
Key Skills for Thorns Bear Druid
For the most part, we are sticking with most of the build as outlined in the main Pulverize Werebear Skills and Rotation guide. We do not change any active skills; we only swap two passives. This will have a minor effect on our active damage output but will be more than offset by what we will get from the Thorns.
For Thorns Bear Druid, we make the following changes:
Remove Core passive (3/3) and replace it with Wrath passive (3/3)
Remove Ultimate passive (3/3) and replace it with Ultimate passive (3/3)
Safeguard
(3/3)
Wrath
Safeguard gives you more Fortify when you crit with your Earth Skills. While this isn't a Crit-heavy build, it's another source for Fortify that can help you survive your Thorns onslaught. Mostly, you fight up close, so losing a bit of damage on Distant enemies is more than a fair trade.
Nature's Resolve
(3/3)
Ultimate
Now that you're trying to get hit, you should take advantage of it. This gives you a chance to Fortify when you're struck, which goes along beautifully with this Thorns build.

Thorns Bear Druid Key Choices for Spirit Boons
This is actually where we make the most significant alterations regarding skills.
Deer - We keep Wariness because damage mitigation vs. Elites becomes even more critical for Thorns Bear, and it's too good to miss. However, we make this our double-Spirit Animal by picking up Prickleskin, our only "natural" source of Thorns damage.
Eagle - We keep Swooping Attacks for the extra Attack Speed.
Snake keeps Masochistic but drops Calm Before the Storm so that Deer can pick up Prickleskin.
Wolf keeps Calamity for the 25% extended Ultimate Skill.
Druid Spirit Boons
Thorns Bear Druid Key Paragon Boards
Since the Pulverize Werebear Paragon boards already invest in a good balance of offense and defense, the Pulverize Paragon assignments and Thorns Bear are the same. Also, Druids lack any Paragon Nodes or Glyphs that support Thorns, so there is no reason to make changes here.
For detailed information about the Paragon choices for the Pulverize Werebear Paragon, including all recommendations for Boards, Glyphs, Legendary Nodes, and Rare Node pathing, please see our guide:

Thorns Bear Druid Key Gear Selections
Best Item Affixes
You should try getting Thorns affixes on as many gear items as possible.
Thorns can also appear on Chest items, but this is not applicable here since you'll already be wearing .

Thorns Bear Druid Best Gems and Consumables
While the recommendations for Weapon and Jewelry Gems do not change, there is a clear winner for Armor Gems. Some Consumables will help you make the most of this Thorns Bear build.
Thorns Bear Druid Best TYPE Gems
Emeralds add Thorns to armor slots. You can get up to 5 of these among your Helm, Chest, and Pants. Socket the highest level Gems you can use. With Royal Emeralds, this means up to 1,250 extra Thorns from your gear gems.
Thorns Bear Druid Best Elixirs and Incense
While the situational recommendations for Elixirs are the same as it is for Pulverize Werebear, you'll want to focus primarily on these:
- The various Iron Barb Elixirs are nearly ideal for Thorn Bears since they adds both Thorns and more Armor. This is crafted, and there are variations for different levels; make and use the highest level ones you can.
For Incense, we recommend the following:
- Adds Thorns for every nearby player, including you.
- It is simply not possible for Thorn Bears to have too much armor. With resistances working as they are, more armor will likely give better non-physical mitigation than specific resistances. You may find this helpful if you're having issues with survivability in your new prickly form.
