Werewolf Skills in Elder Scrolls Online can be obtained by being bitten by another player who possesses the Blood Moon skill. It can also be acquired by being bitten by Werewolves located in high-level areas or bought for 1500 crowns in the crownstore. Werewolves spawn at night, and much more during a Full Moon. Any player who actively has the Vampire Skill Line is not eligible. This Skill Line was given a major overhaul in Update 5. The player will rank up this Skill Line by killing enemies in Werewolf form. It does not matter what enemies are killed, as each enemy counts for the same amount of XP. An easy way to rank up this Skill Line is by finding an area with lots of easy enemies and transforming and killing all of them before your timer runs out. It takes a total of 225 kills while in Werewolf Form to reach Rank 10.

Two questions about packleader: Do the dire wolves in the greymoor update still do their extra nerf attacks to enemies? Does the dire wolves still count as extra werewolves to increase transformation time?

I don't like the criminal act added, and it's slow as hell to level up as a werewolf. I only had pounce for far too long,.

In greymore update, werewolves can tank with the tormentor set again, after changing this back. Pounce will be considered a taunt soon, so werewolf tanking will be possible, probs not the best but defo fun

Easiest way to get fast, save and extreme easy ww rank 10: - get into the solo-dungeon to proceed quest - do the quest till to the end NOW! D O N O T leave that solo-dungoen. S T A Y inside. - slot ww ulti - kill some of the mobs there in order to fill up ulti - transform into ww (savety people now removeing their shortcut key for ulti :)) - go on hunt for the exact 21 mobs inside this dungoen - their respawn is arpund 2 1/2 minutes F: WTF should I now stay inside? Nothing special so far.... :| A: Because ur transformation timer is inside this dungeon N E V E R E N D I N G . U stay in ww as long as u want.... Remember!!! There is only this single chance to do so to become ww 10. If ur pc ctd or something else, you have get rid of ww first, biten by an other player to get the quest again. Btw once ur ww 10 and or vampire 10, u dont loose the rank during respeccing. So it is easy to swap from ww to vampi and vie versa. cu and good time to all of u

This needs an edit:
Killing feared targets leaves nearby allies off balance and disoriented.
Should be 'enemies' not 'allies'

Just wondering if the werewolf attack skills would count as "weapon skills" or not? Do they fire off weapon enchants / poisons, and would they count for triggering 5-piece item sets that proc off using 'weapon skills' like Way of Fire (heavy)?

Addendum to Call of the Pack passive, Rank 218 Sep 2016 01:41
Not sure if I'm putting this in the right place, but I've seen in the game on a Werewolf character of mine that Rank 2 of Call of the Pack, enhances it to 20% per transformed werewolf, up to a maximum of 80%, thus being a straight up doubling of rank 1.
