    I'm trying to follow Alcast's vMA werewolf build (https://alcasthq.com/eso-solo-stamina-werewolf-build-pve/) because i hate vMA but wanna try to do a few more runs while the double drop event is active.

    But i'm confused how he's reaching the stats that he is. Unbuffed, in non WW form, he's sitting at 25k+ health and 30k+ stamina. He also has 2600+ weapon damage and 42% crit. While wearing all of the same gear, i'm only seeing 16k health, 24k stamina, 2100 weapon damage and 39% crit.
    I feel like i'm following the guide but my stats are WAY off from where the guide says they should be. My build absolutely will not work in its current state, and i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong.

    ww with scalebreaker got nerfed very hard... would not recommend it .... tbh.

    I've been running vMA on my WW almost every day since the patch dropped. Had a flawless run going until I got to stage 7...lol
    I would absolutely recommend running it on WW since scalebreaker. Just need to make some adjustments

    I did not say that it is not possible. By all means, you can do it fine as a ww.
    Still, without ww you can be more effective. Therefore i don't see many benefits. But that is only my pov :smile:

    Agree, WW nerfing started since nerfmire, then I stop all classes WW a while, because the effectiveness droped too much, and I changed to play Magplar and then all mag classes for VMA.

    I feel shocked that all mag classes play so ez nowday...

    Im running on a stamblade and I find it much easier to survive on my werewolf build, plus the greater mobility and things just die faster.

    I just got Flawless on my Werewolf so I guess we will have to disagree.

    Hi

    + @Alcast

    I just reset my WW to follow @Alcast's solo build (berserker,TK, Briar, Alessia), and on my Nightblade, I was able to solo Vet FG1, and in the time I had last night I got to phase 3 of the final boss in VMA with only 2 deaths. It's tanky and healy as heck. DPS is a little lack-lustre, but that's just a side effect of the claws nerfs I think. It took me 4 times on the ring to kill the stones, but it honestly didn't hurt getting knocked off those times. Remember to use the dots to their maximun -- eg hit a target then switch.

    My only change was to back-bar my Master's Maul for when in human form - that extra shield is sweet and the dmg is insane when facing 2+ mobs.

    @Alcast hey sorry man I know you’re probably busy but I just had a question for you regarding your solo werewolf build. So I tried it out on PTS had an outstanding run (aside from last boss) and now I’ve golded the gear out on live and have everything the way you do, except I’m using Chudan instead of troll king. My issue is on the last boss of vMA just when I’m done with the crystals upstairs I always transform back and it screws me up and I end up dying and have to start over until I eventually get it. What did you do with your strategy to make sure you kept WW form up for the duration of the fight? I really want to get this last part down smoothly so I can get flawless. Thanks man I really appreciate any help you can give

    Hey, if you keep attacking the Crystals you should have no problem staying in Werewolf form, do you maybe not attack sometimes, make sure to keep the Claw of Life on the Crystal so the Blood Rage passive keeps ticking.

    Ok thank you, I didn’t
    know that the claws of life ticks towards the blood-rage passive, I thought it was only active damage. I’ll try that out and hopefully I can get through with no deaths. Thanks again for the reply!
