Primary Sets

Our main 5 piece set on this build is Eternal Vigor, a heavy armor set from the Greymoor Chapter. This set is fairly easy to get early in the game from quests and delves in Greymoor, and adds substantially to the overall sustain and survival of the Werewolf.

Gryphon’s Ferocity comes from the Summerset chapter and adds damage and speed to the build through the Minor Expedition and Minor Force buffs.

For the final two pieces of gear on this build Armor Of The Trainee is an easy option for the extra Health and Magicka.

Attributes

Most of our skills cost Stamina to cast, so putting all Attribute Points into Stamina will be the most effective.

0 Magicka

0 Health

64 Stamina

Consumables, Race, Mundus

Class

I prefer being a Stamina Sorcerer for the cost-reduction passives (regular abilities and ultimate transformation) or a Stamina Nightblade for the bonus to their recoveries.

Race

Orc or Dark Elf will be a strong choice for this setup if you want as much damage as possible. Imperial will also be a nice option if you have access to them, due to the extra stats and cost reduction of abilities. Nord can also be a nice option for extra defense and ultimate regeneration while outside of Werewolf form. For more details on all ESO Races and passive bonuses be sure to check out our Full ESO Race Guide.

Mundus

The Lover / The Thief / The Steed

Food/Drink Buff
