    A long time ago you could take the extra damage while having the disease in human form. Not anymore.

    Don’t forget about poison too, that and DB together really hurts when you’re in WW form.

    To be fair, all WW-passives (aside from the ultimate) are only active while in WW-form. So it´s a balanced trade-off. :)

    No Vampire passives are active during Stage 1 of Vampire, so...

    And using them removes a large chunk of your timer in lower stages. Actively using skills means actively progressing through Vampiric stages. Good luck feeding after every mist form.

    Give me ww passive in human form and I'll take 20% db damage any day. Vampire offers far more flexibility at the cost of a few skills hitting a bit harder and a (mostly) irrelevant health regen debuff. Fire is the only significant downside and, if I recall correctly, that's really only significant at higher stages.

    Let's add using non ww skills in ww form, there is no direct comparison lol

    While you are certainly correct in how Vampire and Werewolf work differently, I think the fact that there are tonnes of active Vampires, using Vampire skills and passives, and nearly non-existent WW's doing the same thing proves that even if Werewolves have the advantage to a certain degree when it comes to passive drawbacks, the way the skill line functions makes it nonetheless far less desirable.

    That's due to the fact that Vampiric passives are extremely powerful in PvP content. A passive damage mitigation that applies to damage shields, bonus regeneration, and improved sneaking capabilities cover a wide array of what builds want. Werewolves are in need of love, I won't disagree.

    Regardless, my comparison is that Stage 1; which is designed to act as if you were not a Vampire at all (similarly to out of form Werewolves) provides 0 bonus to the player, but still incurs heavy detriments to them. There should be risk associated with reward, but if there is only risk, what is the justification?

    Don’t forget about poison too, that and DB together really hurts when you’re in WW form.

    The "oh poison is so dangerous, you can't be a werewolf - it's silly!", is really over exaggerated - to the point that some people you speak of are like "Yaaa, I'd like to go werewolf in PVP, but it's just silly, you're instantly dead if someone shoots you with poison!". You are not.

    Despite people even specifically targeting me with poison (because they obviously believe in said rumor), I have never had a problem with poison. I can actually count on one hand the times I've died from poison as a major cause. Sometimes, I actually run around outside a keep door, to make people shoot what they got at me, just to take damage to remain in werewolf form until we get into the keep. I can have like 10 poison injection fired at me over 30 seconds, and I have no problem whatsoever to go on. And no, I've hardly done anything to counter it with champion points.

    So it's a myth. Not trying to "put you in place" here specifically, but just want to have it said. Some people need to read it. The problem in werewolf form is all these roots and snares. People literally spam all those they got on you, from the very moment you transform.

    Putting the weaknesses out on the table for the OP to see was really all that post was intended to be.

    There was no reason to take offense.

    The post was never a determent to not go WW, but a weakness to consider, on top of other weaknesses(like you mentioned). Of the more glaring issues, IMO, is having all other abilities locked and only having the WW ones available to use.

    Apples and oranges. You can still use vampire abilities while stage 1. Bring back the passive stam regen buff without having ww slotted and then you would have a reason to allow the increased damage from fighters guild out of ww form.

    yup. in or out of form you are a warewolf.
    you want the passives, take the negative side effect of having it.
    thats like saying vampire should only take 20% more damage from it and only take more fire damage if a vamp ability is slotted.
    cant just have positives with no negatives

    You can use vampire abilities regardless of stage. You actually have to transform in order to use werewolf abilities.

    Gilliam you're making a false analogy - having active skills and an ultimate available despite lack of buffs at stage 1 is not a comparable toolkit to an Un-transformed WW which offers exactly zero utility, zero. They're different considerations.

    I would be more than happy to have the additional damage in and out of werewolf form if the ulti cost for ww was dropped to 50-100.

    I don't get the stage 1 vampire argument, my NB vamps never go down in stages, I don't see a need for it.
