Druid Spirit Boons Guide

Last Updated:March 26, 2024|Change Log

Every class in Diablo 4 has a powerful, unique mechanic that contributes to its identity and the build-making process. For the Druid, it's called Spirit Boons, allowing you to choose one out of four passive bonuses from four different Spirits. Bonding with a Spirit allows you to select two Boons from it.

Spirits

There are the four Spirits: Deer, Eagle, Snake, and Wolf.

Deer

The Deer Spirit focuses on utility, granting additional Spirit, Damage Reduction against Elites, or reduce Control Impairing Effects.

Gift of the Stag

Wariness

Advantageous Beast

Deer Spirit

Eagle

The Eagle Spirit adds a ton of offensive capability to your Druid by adding Critical Strike Chance, Attacks Speed, or Critical Strike Damage. With additional Life as the final option, it can be hard to choose here.

Scythe Talons

Iron Feather

Swooping Attacks

Avian Wrath

Eagle Spirit

Wolf

The Wolf Spirit starts with 2 Lucky Hit abilities that either reset Companion Cooldowns, or grant 10 Spirit when procced. With his Fortify boost or the extension of Ultimate Skills, he can provide some utility as well.

Snake

The Snake Spirit doesn't trust humans. You have to unlock all its Boons at once. They add strong bonuses to specific build types, adding a guaranteed Overpower proc to Earth Skills, a static discharge procced by Lightning Skills, a 3% Heal when Shapeshifting Skills Critical Strike, or a chance to reduce Cooldowns by 2 seconds when using a Nature Magic Skill.

Druidic Spirit Offerings

Once you reach level 15, monsters start dropping Druidic Spirit Offerings. They are used to unlock the four Boons in Túr Dúlra.

When you unlock the system you get 25 Druidic Spirit Offerings as a reward. There are 16 Boons to unlock which each cost 25 Offerings. In total, you need 400 to unlock all of them.

Note: You have to unlock all 4 Boons of the Snake Spirit at once, so you need to collect 100 Druidic Spirit Offerings to gain access to its Boons.

Unlocking the Spirit Boons

Once you reach level 15, you automatically start the Priority Quest "Spirits of the Lost Grove". This short questline is required to unlock the Spirit Boon feature. You have to clear out the Stronghold Túr Dúlra before you can start it.
