    I wish I had grabbed a screen shot, there is a Shrine to Hircine in Bangkori, and there was an RP Gathering of Werewolves there. It was neat to listen to.

    As for players who are werewolves, well there are players who are DK's or Vampires, whatever floats your boat and gets the job done I guess.

    I have one character who got infected, have not done anything with the skill line, but have not gotten around to curing her. She is an Altmer Magic Healer, so the WW thing would not be for her.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I am the GM of a WW guild, NA_EP and for the past year and half the highlight of our week has been Werewolf Wednesdays. With the dedication and creativity of our guildies, we have overcome most of the things WW's can't do by adding shepherds to our pack. This lets non ww's participate in raids by rezzing us, throwing down siege for us to use and setting up forward camps. The unannounced removal of PERMA FORM has made them redundant and participation has sharply declined from a full raid to just a handful. Staying in form now in PVP is a struggle with no wildlife, fast rezing npc's and enemies who hate being nom nomed on and usually results in some salty whispers.
    We have developed gear set combos and potions to have great success in 4 wolf dungeons, but most know you barely have time to heal, never mind nom on trash to stay in form. Trials are doable too, with 9 wolves a tank and 2 healers (or vice versa).
    All and all the FUN has been taken away, please bring back PERMA WOLF!!

    Dear ZOS,

    We have been tossing and turning over why would you change the only thing that made werewolf playable, because without perma wolf there is no reason to be a WW.

    some reasons why
    - the ultimate is a high cost and does
    - can not gain ultimate while in form
    - as people have said before, to play and be effective in WW form you have to have a specific build for it.
    - WW passives are not applied to you unless in WW form, unlike Vampire passives which are active all the time if unlocked.

    You have killed the WW by making it useless, it was never OP as WW can not lay siege weapons and also can not heal anyone but themselves.

    PLEASE PRAISE HIRCINE AND GIFT US WITH THE BLESSING OF PERMA WOLF AND MAKE WW GREAT AGAIN

    I enjoy WW and running with a pack, but when perma-WW was removed a majority of the fun went with it. It hardly seems fair that Vampires are in form permanently as individuals, yet WW cannot hold form as a group.

    ALSO, why is it that vamps can build ultimate and werewolf cannot while in form? Given the high ultimate cost of transformation it hardly seems fair. It is almost as if all the developers are Vampires and want an advantage.

    The recent Werewolf nerf seems like another paragraph in your Customer Reduction Program plans.

    I find them totally useless in both PVP and PVE, making the only reason to be one is "just for fun and feeling being special".
    Since beta none of my 9 chars was ww, and most likely never become one.

    I'm starting to find a pattern to Warewolves in ESO:
    • It's usually a kid.
    • Has a questionable character name. Often Gandalf or Dovahkin related.
    • Gets into dungeons as a tank.
    • Is not a tank.
    • Turns into a wolf when he should not. Really.

    But of course, not all wolves can be Aela.

    The werewolf I think is one of the most unique things about this game. I've never really seen another game where you're allowed to actually be a werewolf and transform and stuff, its pretty cool imo. I just wish they were a bit more viable. Its pretty ok for rolling around PVEing as that's all I've really done, but the timer really gets in the way when you're trying to do quests, or happen to be on longer stretches with no enemies to keep the form going, and its a pain to earn the ultimate back.

    Did vCoS with a random werewolf yesterday. He didn't have very good dps and was bad at staying out of red, but still far from the worst DD you find in pugs.

    Don't really care but quite a few times in vet dungeons there'd be that one DPS guy spamming 2H heavy attacks or bow light attacks that'd turn into a werewolf, and I'd be doing like 80% of the DPS. Don't think they can rez either? I dunno, I don't have a WW character.

    Eh... I've accidentally wolfed out on my tanks in dungeons. The problem is simple. The stam regen is nice, so I keep that on by board bar. I back bar something like Flawless Dawnbreaker. I go to flip bars, fire dawnbreaker, and come back, but the game thinks, "nah, that's too much work, you're a nine-foot-tall-snarling-deathbeast now."

    Please please please if you are a WW do not tank. I like them in all other circumstances.

    I am WW and I tank (the WW-ulti is not on my tank-bar, of course). But since we are a group of RL-friends with no bigger goals than seeing vet-dungeon-content it works great. During our first try on Falkreach everybody except me stood in stupid (the ghost-boss) and I had fun switching to my DD-bar (yes, I'm such a casual that I don't have two tank-bars), testing how long I would survive. My mates cheered in Discord and we had a whale of a time.
    MOAR Werewolfes please! :)

    When it comes down to werewolves, I find the Orc to be the best because of the swift warrior passive granting a 4% Melee Damage Increase. any class can use werewolf form but with different specs based on the class chosen, for me as you know, is the warden as every time I heal myself with Hircines rage as well as claws of life, I find Maturation to be useful for temporarily improving my overall survivability.

    Personally, I only wish there was a super popular Werewolf Guild I could join on the Xbox One NA Server because I sometimes find myself being one of very few Lycanthropes in PvE that actually respects the Five Aspects of Hircine.
    If you see me anywhere. Know that I am sitting back with a bag of popcorn, watching as ESO burns the goodwill of its player base with practices that only disrespects the players time like it did to me and many others...

    If a game does not respect your time, best thing to do is move on from it and find something else.

    I have never played with someone as a werewolf and had them actually help or do anything other than look stupid and swing their hairy arms around.

    Yep. Worst tank I ever grouped with was a werewolf. Was basically him and his werewolf buddy, me (DPS) and my friend (Healer). WW can't hold agro at ALL. I spent most of the fights running away from the bosses so they won't 1-shot me.

    That's because not everyone can grasp the Werewolf concept very well, primarily werewolves are the best (Optional) form of DPS while also being hard to kill, however, unless I get in a group dungeon as a DPS, I mostly tank with my sword and board backup hand (Using Pierce Armor alongside the rest of my moveset outside werewolf form), but if someone is underperforming in their DPS output or if they decide to taunt as a DPS when I do the Tanking for the group, I just let 'em tank and I go full out Beastly. (Or if I come in as a DPS and someone turns out to be a fake tank, I tank for them as part of my plan B.) I always have a backup plan if things in a group dungeon goes sideways.

    In short: I only turn when someone is not playing by the book or they just end up being downright unhelpful because I do my best to take one for the team even when the odds are against us.

    I love my werewolf, probably my favorite character. I just dislike how short the form is during boss fights.
    I also hate the small area over the mob to feed. I am constantly looking for the "X" when I to go eat. I also dislike how if you move before you see the form bar go up, you don't get anything.

    I also think normal wolves in the world should not attack you, they should be yellow.

    Yeah, that's because Werewolves can't tank. They have no taunt mechanic. (Not even one buried in a morph.) There's literally no way they can keep the boss off of you.
