Thoughts On Being A Werewolf vs Being A Vampire

jovengionni
As the title says I just wanted to know some of your thoughts on being a werewolf vs being a vampire. I have a character who is a werewolf and it has been one of the most useful things in helping me progress to Veteran 2. On the other hand I have seen some vampires just mow through enemies. I'm at the point where I'm going to make another character soon just because I'm not feeling the whole NB Archer anymore, but I'm not sure if this new character should be a werewolf like my other one or if it should be a vampire. Thanks to anyone who responds!

    I came here to actually speak English & answer the question, so let me try

    Vampire: 50% extra fire damage, a bunch of awesome skills & passives, ideal for magika/ pvp builds & must be willing to address the fire situation either with a dark elf or a bunch of glyphs. Cannot tank

    Werewolf: 50% poison damage (only in werewolf form) which is none existent in PVE but all the archers in pvp rock poison, skills & perks only while in form & essentially perfect with ZERO downside for a stamina build or tank that isn't obsessed with pvp. 15% in combat stamina boost

    Spiders... In PVE spiders will freaking wreck you if you're in WW form. But yeah, poison is otherwise pretty rare in PVE.

    I don't know why I can't edit from my phone but it's actually 40%/40% extra damage I believe. I dunno why I typed 50

    Werewolves don't take 40% extra damage, it's less than that but I can't remember the exact. Choosing between vampire and werewolves is all about your race and class. I have two characters right now and my werewolf goes perfect with my full stamina nb build and as for vampire, I take dark elf and sorcerer. These class are perfect for ww and vamp because of its racial passive reduce in poisoning (wood elf) and fire resistance (dark elf). Since I are a high elf and is a raid healer or any supportive role, I suggest u not take ww or vampire and just stay normal.
    That moment when you don't get a weapon for your class after a really hard boss fight.

    If you're going to try be a smartass and correct someone who can speak more than one language make sure you spell "sure" correctly. And make sure they didn't already correct themselves.
