Why does Werewolf Transformation still cost 300 in 1.6 ?

The price of this "weapon switch" ultimate is too high, this was an issue since the launch of the game, that was almost resolved with the 1.5 but now with the 1.6 and the new ultimate gain mechanic, it's very hard to get the transformation. 300 Ultimate make Werewolf Transforation one of the most expensive ultimate in the game ! It's not that overpowered :/

Why does many ultimates got a reduction in cost, especially Overload which is the closest, but not Werewolf Transformation ?
(For exemple, note that overload got a cost reduction from 125 to 75)

An answer from a Developer would be cool :)

    Werewolf should be 150, and while transforming you should be Cc and interrupt immune.

    Overload is toggle, WW - not. It is not intended that you'll transform. ZOS wanted to use it only for ult gain (1.5).

    i think i read in the patch notes that ww has a passive that if you are hit by something you get 3 more seconds in ww and the effect can only happen once every 3 seconds, so basically if you are continuously fighting something you can pretty much stay werewolf indefinitely.

    @cozmon3c_ESO : This passive is good, it help real Werewolf player to focus on making damage instead of keeping the fur by devour or heavy attacks (with Pack Leader Morph) BUT it's still not a good reason to keep Werewolf Transformation that high.

    I can't speak for all werewolf player but in the opinion of many, the cost is too high and the reduction of all other ultimates (except Banner of Might which was really OP) looks unfair toward Werewolves

    Yeah, I'm really happy with WW now. We are eat a lot more enemy types which allows us to stay wolfed out longer so its a win win.

    Don't know if it's just because I'm using a 2hander or not but WW hits like a truck for light attacks, fast too. That damage is only increased after crits etc. When it comes to PvE I've been able to wolf out and just absolutely beast mode everything near me. This is also before I put any points into WW other than Devour passive.

    After FINALLY getting it charged it definetly feels powerful and you can stay in it for quite awhile which also helps a tonne with leveling it faster.

    Now if only I could transform every time and not have it use like 300 ultimate, root me in place and then not transform me :confused:

    Hey, 300 is better than the 1000 it used to be. :wink:

    I do wish that the berserker morph would change the fur to black like it used to though.
