On Sunday we finally got around to doing a trial with a full werewolf group, all transformed. We had no resurrections (since we cannot do that anyway in form), and no one lost their wolf forms for the duration of the trial, which was the original plan! Video below showing it:

Real time completion for the trial was 50 mins, two players had never done a trial before, and this is also our first attempt at an all wolf run!

I would like to add: Dire wolves for pack leaders do not respawn after you revive as werewolf. Hence why you never see them again after the first boss. While they do not do much damage at all, it was something at least, so would have helped if they respawned properly

Damn, this was frickin' epic!

@LMar Haha that would be interesting

@WeyounTM Thanks Weyoun

@FeaR Turbo @DisgracefulMind @humpalicous Thank you, glad you all liked it!

@cragontheone We just had potions and the werewolf heal

@Belegnole Thanks, glad you liked it. And yes we are asked a lot about the NA server, but EU only sadly

Very nice! Especially since you all were just having fun and not trying to epeen flex.

MagnusBlackmane · July 2017

That was fun to watch, kudos for you guys!

Tezlakipuka · July 2017

Awesome job, fun to watch.
For a moment it looked like the axes would simply follow him down

That was actually the whole point of it. Having fun with awesome and like minded people. Laughing at our mistakes and getting it done in the end was really awesome since most of us aren't used to do trials anyhow

Now how about fixing the direwolves-respawning after death, @ZOS_GinaBruno

tommalmm · July 2017

I totally love the guy kiting axes around the whole time and falling off the cliff. Looks like some kind of parody (Benny Hill Show anyone?). It was so great to see, even though I'm not a big fan of werewolves

How did you get a group for this ?

But, remember what all the ill informed meta-drones will tell you: Werewolves are useless.

This is normal mode

Imagine if ZOS changed the tormentor set to work on WW pounce! This could be a serious raid party

Doesn't it?

Nope, afaik the WW pounce is considered a teleport, not a charge. Hence why the tormentor set isnt working. It would be pretty funny though and this one would approve of such a change

Inarre · July 2017

I love you

zcripturez · July 2017

Awesome! I'll have to check this out when I get home

My werewolf tank dreams

... maybe the werewolf pets... like sorcs pets currently on pts will hold hold taunt... I need to test this.

That was really fun to watch!

(spoiler if you haven't watched the vid)

I lost it at the Imp and the one that fell off the cliff in the last fight, my goodness, this video restored a bit of faith in the game thanks

I was wondering how they were going to deal with the imp. Well done!

Glaiceana · July 2017

@Pele @MagnusBlackmane @Inarre Thanks

@Tezlakipuka It really did! Wish that had gone and not come back, that would be an interesting sacrificial tactic haha
@tommalmm Haha yes definitely benny hill music moment, and glad you liked the video anyway!

@Tasear Being in an all werewolf guild has its benefits!

@AlnilamE Yeah if it wasn't for the range attack we have, not sure what we would have done xD I guess one would have to change out of wolf form to progress us, and then spend a while getting ulti back from some other location lol!

Best achievement ever.

Tornaad · July 2017

That's cool! Congratulations to everyone.

dem0n1k · July 2017

epic.

Capsaica · July 2017

Hmmm...werewolf tank...I wonder. I tried out the tormentor set a while ago and was sad that it did not work with WW.

Equip ice staff and destro staff skill on your bar. Transform into werewolf. Does a heavy attack count as an ice staff heavy attack and thus, a taunt? Probably not, but you never know until you try.

paulsgruff · July 2017

@Capsaica We tried that just after finishing this run, sadly it doesn't work. You seem to get the bonuses from your gear and weapons fine in werewolf form, but once you've transformed it doesn't seem to care what the weapon actually was in terms of the weapon passives working.

Capsaica · July 2017

@paulsgruff, that's a bummer. Not surprising, but still, it would have provided an interesting facet of werewolf gameplay.

On a related note, I wonder if the other passives for weapon skill lines carry over? Namely, the ability to block more damage with sword and board, or the dual wield twin blade and blunt passives, or the 2h passives for sword/axe/maul.

It would be interesting yes. Would be nice to have more options to specialise roles in werewolf form. Namely more armour that is specific to werewolf transformation.
