    I see its a dead thread but.... Why would someone be a werewolf tank? Makes no sense...
    Thread is dead, because WW is more or less useless in its current state...

    Anyway - it makes a lot of sense. Imagine you are a guard in a dungeon. You see a group incoming. An archer with a bow, a mage with a staff... and a Werewolf... who do you attack 1st ?

    Anyway, this is what they could do with Pack Leader morph imho. Instead of dmg add taunt on heavy attacks and some form of block cost reduction. ZOS wanted to make 2 morphs distinct, but they kinda screwed it.

    During wolfhunter update the biggest WW flaw that was often mentioned is that WW is only used in PvP. Wolfhunter changed that so WW could be used in PvE DPS role. Granted, ww healer is like impossible, but a tank ? I think it could be the case. Maybe not a trial tank but as far as 4 man content ? It could be. WW has a group CC (fear) and de-buff (Major Fracture), so it has some form of group utility.

    Healers and multi-target damage dealers.

    and Tanks.

    Every class can do every role, WW is not a class. It's a StamDD skill line.

    Nope, it is a mini-class. It has Dmg dealing skills, healing skills, buff & de-buff skills. ZOS treated WW as "just another skill line" during standardisation and as a result WW became useless.

    No, mate. These are not enough skills for tanking. Your tank will underperform and cause problems to your group.

    Maybe, yes if you will be 100% time in WW form, but keep in mind - you have 2 bars & WW as a "3rd" Bar. In a lot of scenarios transforming and tanking high amounts of dmg for a short time would be useful. Then transform back to human form. WW can not do that because it does not have a taunt.
