Werewolf vs poison

Hi guys, just wondering if the 50% extra poison damage taken to werewolves is constant if you have lycanthropy or just when you actually go into werewolf state? I want the stamina recovery, not really the werewolf state, but with so many PvPers using bows with poison arrow, is it worth it?

    I've heard it's only actually when in WW form that the poison damage takes effect.

    If this is accurate and not altered or changed by patches, then it is clearly stated that the extra posion damage applies both while in and not in werewolf form.

    The guide you posted is over a year old and incorrect... at the time being only when you are shifted does it make you weaker to poison and fighters guild passives.

    That seems cheesy but ok. Not sure why shifted or not should make any difference, but from a balance perspective I could see the reasoning since the werewolves really only enjoy the stamina while not shifted. I suppose vamps enjoy most of their benefits all the time and their weakness being continuous makes sense. Doesn't make much sense when you think too much about it though lol. Shifted or not a werewolf is a werewolf imo... Durn smelly beasts! You win this round!!! :p
