PD2 S9 Wacky Builds: Vines o' Vengeance Druid

I'm predicting that Poison Creeper will be nerfed next season so I made a build that I could try next season to pair with it and have lots of damage types...plus being a non-shifted melee Druid for style points!
Usual format could not be followed due to my demise (spoilers!) so I had to stitch something together via the Twitch VOD and clips, hope it follows OK!
