Wolfhunter offering anything new for werewolf players?

MaverickWerewolf
I feel certain this is a pointless question and the answer is no, but... I can't help but get my hopes up. I originally pre-ordered ESO back when based solely on the werewolves, because I've always loved the werewolves in Elder Scrolls games. The ESO werewolves didn't let me down. I love them and all their mechanics.

So while I'm incredibly excited for this DLC (and to see Hircine get another appearance in ESO), and all of the art is amazing, I'm still kind of anxious about how this seems to offer no goodies for actual werewolf players.

Will we get anything? A new werewolf model, like the one seen in the promotional Wolfhunter art? Taking it a step further, werewolf form customization, maybe? Just a little, picking different color combinations and appearance options? I know that's dreaming, but I wanted to throw it out there.

If nothing else, could we at least get a size change for the werewolf model, based on your race and height if not some other customization choice?
(Because my friend's tiny Bosmer girl turning into a werewolf the same size as my max height Nord, who literally shrinks when he shifts, will never not be... strange.)

Will amazing new werewolf models be added while players are stuck with the old ones? I'm just getting a little concerned, I guess.

    It was just announced, how is anyone supposed to know anything. I wouldn't get my hopes up and conjure up a list of what to expect/requests only to be severely disappointed and receive nothing at all.

    You're forgetting the obvious, @MaverickWerewolf ...

    There's a high chance of obtaining new gear sets that synergize with Werewolf. That should make your character stronger and make you more eager to play.

    A new skin for the transformed state would be neat. Especially if it let you turn into a wereboar or something (yes I know the DLC promo stuff is all focusing on werewolves). They probably won't do it because non-werewolves couldn't use it though. :( And if they did it's likely going to be the hardmode/no-death/speed achievement prize and inaccessible to most of us anyway.

    *shrug* I seem to do quite well, but then I'm not doing trials or any PVP. And I also am specced tankier than heck, so that may be helping. >.>

    Okay, @Knowledge, you win this round; that was legitimately funny.

    I'd like to see WW toggle, idc what they do to the form because I only use it for the passive.

    Yeah, wereboars or werebears would be cool. No necessarily with this patch, but it would be neat to start seeing some of the other lycanthrope breeds popping up in the game. Amazing if they were playable, but difficult to obtain. But, still it'd be cool to run across them anyway.

    Another thing making them useless is the inability to res other players. I had to stop using WW because of that :(

    I would be surprised and appalled if they didn’t do the balance pass we’ve been promised forever—WW included.

    seeing how it's a dungeon DLC i would not get your hopes up for WW changes at the most you might get a new set that helps WW'S
