Wouldn't be good to tanking as Werewolf?

Kelces✭✭✭✭✭One morph for the howl would be nice, yes. The concept already suggests something in that direction, so it might aswell do that final step.
A stamina tank with a little more DPS output could be an interesting variant.Edited by Kelces on September 7, 2018 8:26PMYou reveal yourself best in how you play.

It’s a dps setup, not tanking setup. Just because you want to tank on it doesn’t make him wrong.12 -

No, @Valrien is correct.
If you wanted to be able to tank on a werewolf you would need far more than just a taunt.
I don't know if you've realized this, but tanking in ESO is not just about poking the boss with Pierce, and then standing there while the DPS hose them down. It's a bit more involved than that.4 -

✭there's a set that taunts the enemy you charge on, use pounce with Tormentor (When you deal damage with a Charge ability, you gain 42-3642 Physical and Spell Resistance and taunt the enemy to attack you for 15 seconds.) and there you have your taunt-PC EU- / battlegrounds on my youtube1 -

Nope. That actually doesn't work with the leap skill.
What OP doesn't realize is that WWs don't have very great block (I never block with WW so idk if they even have block at all), their skills would need a rework to be viable for tanking, and one skill would become useless for DPS because it would have a taunt on it

This was discussed recently, apparently it's not working like that since it doesn't count as a charge. Would be nice though.You reveal yourself best in how you play.

You should tell that to 50% of the tanks in the group finder, hell you are lucky if the even decide to taunt.

Yeah, there's a reason I only queue as a tank for the group finder these days. I mean, it's not this, but I also don't get the opportunity to.There have been packs of werewolves running group veteran content for a while. Many of these packs would prefer if a tankier wolf would hold agro in certain fights.
Trade off is like all of those DPS that run ice staves in PvE. Not happiness, and people getting pissed with me because I couldn't overwrite their taunt.0 -

If you're taking tanking advice from, "every tank in my guild will run Green Pact," you might want to stop and reassess your mentors, man.

Always thought taunting was the art of convincing mobs you are a larger threat than the legitimate threats within your party
Werewolf should just auto-taunt from enemies panicking that the Werewolf has to be killed first"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion." -- the 14th Dalai Lama

All though I agree so much what you are saying, majority of the pug tanks do not use these abilities and options you are talking about, so they can just as well go werewolf and nothing would change.PC, EU server, Ebonheart Pact

With respect; the PUG tanks we're talking about are wolfing out anyway, and may not know their taunt from their *******. So... *shrugs*2 -

And why? Werewolves are savage beasts which recklessly hunt and fight. Their claws are for ripping and tearing apart their victims. Their whole body is made for inflicting as much damage as possible. Those beasts are the very definition of a melee-DD. I can't see a single reason why a werewolf should be able to tank.ictopbasli wrote: »Wouldn't be good to tanking as Werewolf?2 -

So I tend to agree with you. Give them access to a taunt.Edited by Jeremy on September 8, 2018 10:33AM1 -
