Class-Specific Death Recap Hints are Unhelpful in Werewolf Form

Certain hints on the death recap screen will suggest that you use class abilities, even when you do not have access to them in Werewolf form. This is frustrating because the game is suggesting that you don't play as a werewolf when you die as one, and it is generally unhelpful advice for people who need hints for this particular playstyle.

There are numerous hints on the death recap screen, all with very different conditions for showing up. For instance, there's a hint that suggests that you use a Mundus boon, and another which suggests that you consume a food or drink item. Above all, there are class-specific hints, such as this one for Templars which suggests that you use the Spear Shards or Piercing Javelin abilities, both found within the Aedric Spear skill line, to even the odds. Why not create a few more hints for players who are in Werewolf form, and filter out the irrelevant hints?

For instance, hints about ways to preserve your Werewolf timer or on how to conserve your Magicka for Hircine's Bounty would go a long way toward helping new Werewolf players improve, rather than discouraging them from learning the playstyle by suggesting that they stick to class abilities. It is unnecessary to suggest to players to use skills which they currently do not have the option of using.

    Well when the goal is to get people to not play werewolf these make perfect sense. Like, people say werewolf has no ultimate and that is untrue! Their ultimate is "stop being a werewolf and wildly increase your power, swaying the battle in your favor!"

    The after-death hints have never been helpful. "Don't let other players heavy attack you." "Use health potions when health is low." And yes, the crowd favorite telling you what to go against multiple players.

    Most of the advice has not changed since release day. There's a few updates, but usually it's just hilarious. Fortune cookies will give better advice specific to what happened.

    Those 'tips' are 99.99% not helpful and sometimes are cringy even not on WW anyways.
