Werewolf PVP Build ESO – Bloodfang
Werewolf PVP
Bloodfang is a powerful Werewolf PVP Build, designed for Battlegrounds and Open World PVP. The Build is focusing on insane Survivability and Burst Damage to deal with single targets or multiple enemies. Bloodfang is based on a Stamina Sorcerer PVP Build but can be used by any other Class and Stamina Character. You can even play as a Stamina Sorcerer if you like without transforming into a Werewolf, with a few changes to your Ultimates.
For a Werewolf PVE Build DPS you can take a look at The Beast and for a Werewolf Tank PVE Build you can take a look at Sentinel. If you are a new player, take a look at my Vampire vs Werewolf Guide to understand the differences between the two skill lines.
