How it Plays

  1. Build stacks for Provocation by being in Werebear form, you can also build stacks for Quickshift during this phase. Ensure that you can Overpower Cataclysm before using it.
  2. Use Hurricane to activate Stormshifter's Aspect for more Skill Ranks to Cataclysm and to reduce enemy damage.
  3. Cast and maintain Cataclysm to kill everything.
  4. Spam Maul when you can to generate Fortify and maintain Werebear form.
  5. Use Debilitating Roar to reduce enemy damage and increase the damage they take.
  6. Utilize Earthen Bulwark to break free from CC with Enhanced Earthen Bulwark.
  7. Cyclone Armor is being used for the passive non-physical Damage Reduction.

How it Works

This build is all about buffing Cataclysm, Lightning Bolts, and Overpower for substantial damage!

  • Cataclysm receives all benefits from Lightning Bolt modifiers due to Mjölnic Ryng.
  • Cataclysm can utilize Werewolf buffs due to Tempest Roar.
  • Aspect of the Rabid Beast changes our damage to Poison Damage which opens up additional damage options.
  • This build will always Overpower if done correctly, so Willpower is far more valuable than normal.
