This build is amazing on controller, requires ZERO resource management, and uses the Greatstaff of the Crone!

Dash through the screen destroying enemies with Claw as a Werebear. Zero resource management means you can endlessly spam without pause. This encapsulates the melee bruiser playstyle perfectly!

  • Check additional tabs for alternate variations of the build.

Strengths and Weaknesses

  • VERY FAST
  • VERY GOOD SURVIVABILITY
  • Solid Damage
  • Easy to play
  • Very fun
  • Torment 12+
  • Requires Greatstaff of the Crone to function as intended.

Build Variants

This version of the build will be your BEST ALL AROUND SETUP for 90% of content in Werewolf form.

  • If you are short on anything be sure to read the additional information written below each section for alternatives.

Important Notes

  • Greatstaff of the Crone is required for this build to function!
  • Overcharged Aspect on amulet is a better offensive option which would free up a point in Cataclysm.
  • Generally a bad Mythic item will be worse than a non-Mythic with better affixes.
  • Thundergod's Blessing is not required. A legendary ring with a 60-65% damage Aspect and good affixes can easily be better overall than this if it has bad affixes.
  • Do not use Tibault's Will if your survivability is low. You can always use another defensive Aspect such as Vigorous Aspect or Juggernaut's Aspect.

Farming Locations

  • Tibault's Will - General Pool
  • Dirge of Airidah - Astaroth (Convert to Charm in the Horadric Cube)

Stat Priorities

Offensive

  1. Critical Strike Chance (No more than 100%)
  2. Critical Strike Damage Multiplier (Main GA and Masterwork focus)
  3. Attack Speed (No more than 100% and factor in Wolves, Ferocity, and Varyana.)
  4. Vulnerable Damage Multiplier (Masterwork upgrade at least one with GA)
  5. Lightning/All Damage Multiplier (Masterwork upgrade at least one with GA)
  6. Skill Ranks
  7. Weapon Damage (Only on weapons)
  8. Willpower (Always prioritize on armor)

Defensive

  1. Maximum Life (You want this on all items unless you feel you can remove some and stay alive)
  2. Resistance (Get as much as you can without giving up Willpower or other important affixes)
  3. Armor (Be sure to have at least one affix on items minimum, but get as much as you can)

Utility

  1. Movement Speed (No more than 200%)
  2. Cooldown Reduction (Just enough to maintain Cataclysm 100% of the time)

Talisman

Talisman Priority
+7

Important Notes

  • Ranks to Nature Magic Skills are best. Ranks to Shapeshifting, Storm and Werebear Skills also work but are less ideal.

Skills & Rotation

Important Notes

  • Cyclone Armor is used automatically through Berú of the Storm Shepherd for survivability and pulling enemies in.
  • Earthen Bulwark is used automatically with Que Rune for Barrier, Fortify, Healing, Resolve Stacks, and Overpower.
  • Wolves are entirely passive for an Attack Speed buff.

Skill Rotations

  1. Activate Lightning Storm and Hurricane to deal damage, proc Calm Before the Storm, Weaken enemies, and increase Movement Speed (You can re-cast Lightning Storm at 4 Ferocity stacks for faster strikes).
  2. Use and maintain Cataclysm off cooldown for damage and healing.
  3. Spam Claw to dash to enemies and kill everything.

Skill Tree

Available3 (0)
Spent69 (11)

Important Notes

  • Skill point distribution will depend on your needs. Earthen Bulwark should be 100% Barrier and the rest can be dumped into Cyclone Armor for more survivability or Lightning Storm for more damage.
  • Hero of the Storm Lightning Storm doesn't show damage increases from skill ranks but it does benefit from them.

Paragon Board

Important Notes

  • Prioritize getting all Legendary Nodes before all else. Example: Thunderstruck
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 25 before going higher unless you cannot equip the next Glyph yet.
  • Prioritize all Glyphs to level 50 before going higher on any.

Glyph Leveling Order

  1. Spirit
  2. Fulminate
  3. Earth and Sky
  4. Fang and Claw
  5. Keeper

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why am I squishy?

A: Survivability is all about stacking multiple layers of damage mitigation and sustain. You want Maximum Life on every piece of gear because it prevents one shots and your Barrier from Earthen Bulwark scales with Maximum Life. The build has great healing built in, so focus on reducing damage taken by stacking All Elemental Resistances and Armor. The Gems on jewelry are very high value to prevent the worst types of damage. Be sure to make sure you get Damage Reduction items and Aspects as recommended in the guide or alternatives listed below them.

If you have additional questions or think I should add something here, let me know on my Twitch stream or in the Discord.
