I mean... he literally has infinite WW mode x.x which is just about as bad as if I had infinite Overload mode.

    As far as end game PvE is concerned, you would be doing much lesser damage in it than outside it unlike Overload so it's perfectly fine currently.

    As a stamblade who does mostly PvE, when I'm in werewolf form even just my light attacks hit mobs like a TRUCK.

    As a console player I am looking forward to the changes the DB patch brings to WW. Is it as much fun as I hope?

    WW is strong currently, but it has enough drawbacks to make it balanced.

    PVE:
    As someone mentioned, with a lot of builds WW DPS optimization can take a hit

    Timer stops you from interacting and acting "normal" because if you spend to long doing something, you will de-wolf

    In group content, WW is not as good apart from potentially as a DPS, completely useless for a tank or healer, and other DPS without using WW form and using other ultimates instead can do the job of DPS just as good, if not better.

    It takes up an ultimate slot which could be used for arguably better synergies or general usefulness.

    PVP:
    Going wolf instantly makes everyone target you, as you are easier to spot and distinguish from others

    Increased damage from poisons, which come from some very common skills, such as skills from the bow, from stam DKs, and from weapon enchants.

    It is a lot harder to manage the timer in PVP due to lack of NPC mobs, and due to players respawning before devour can finish

    The only strictly defensive ability a WW has scales off of magicka, considering everything else scales off of stamina, it is usually quite weak, and a minor stall at best.

    There is often so much walking and movement from battle to battle that it is literally impossible to maintain WW in cyrodiil going from one keep capture or defense, to another, thus at least SOME fighting has to be done outside of WW form.

    It takes up an ultimate slot thus you can't use many of the better ultimates for PVP.



    These are just some off the top of my head.

    It isn't overtuned. In a duel, which isn't real combat, it can be strong because you are obligated to stay near him and fight him. By fighting him you increase his WW timer. However, in actual combat you could just bolt escape a few times and come back once he loses his transformation.

    Eh wasn't saying it was incredibly OP or anything. was just flabbergasted that He NEVER left the ww form, and he never would. and with malubeth he was certainly able to tank, fear, dps, and slaughter groups by the droves alone. seen it first hand with alot of WW builds this patch. Not going to mention any names here because I was asked not to record them or mention them...but I will say they're builds are pretty much invulnerable to no less the 4 people at once, and they can certainly handle the regular rabble by the truck load.

    But I get it, everyone loves WW haha... I'll just have to figure out how to adapt to it some way. I just can't help but feel it is a little overtuned :wink: Maybe I should make one myself... *thinks deeply*

    You can easily keep your form up if you constantly take damages (passive skill), what the sorc's pet do =)

    Werewolf is in a good place right now. The leap skill also extends the timer.

    Werewolf was overtuned when they decided to give it over 10k resistance and since fighters guild no longer really grants a passive damage bonus.... I think WW falls in the same category as Radiant Destruction, Overload and snipe. Lethal when you are outnumbered and rather easy to handle in a 1v1. WW however is also very very strong in 1v1, but manageable somehow.

    They nerfed as well before pack leader can be in werewolf for ever in a 1 vs 1 but now they get 2 wolfs instead. Plus fighters guild made vamps and ww made it to easy to kill.

    What we have now high cost ultment does decent damage with weaker fighters guild but less way extend ww is now more balance.
