ESO Werewolf Tank Build
Information
Welcome to The Tank Club: ESO Werewolf Tank Build.
This is a fun/casual build you can use for Tanking as a Werewolf.
The Werewolf Tank is a lot of fun to play but has a very limited playstyle. You can provide a decent range of group support and it’s possible to Tank most things as a Werewolf.
If you are doing any serious level of content or progression it would be best not to use a Werewolf as it’s not possible to give your group the proper support they need while in Werewolf form.

- Monster set is hard to optimise since things like Tremorscale cannot proc in Werewolf form so you just try to fill in gaps with Healing/Sustain/Debuffs that can proc in Werewolf form. Earthgore, Grundwulf, Engine Guardian, Vykosa are all good options. You could also try using Shapeshifter’s Chain, Death Dealer’s Fete, or Torc of Tonal Constancy mythic items.

Notes
Class
Any class will work for Werewolf Tanking but the most useful ones would be Templar and Sorcerer due to their reduce cost passives.
You just need to look at all Class passives that you gain from using a Class and decide which ones you’ll find most useful as you’ll keep these in Werewolf form. If a passive requires you to have a class skill slotted for the passive then this is not one that will be active in Werewolf form. Most useful class passives for Werewolf would be any Resistance or Reduce Cost passives.
Race
Pretty much any race is playable here. The common races are Redguard, Argonian or Imperial for sustaining, Orc for more Stamina, Health and Speed. Nord for Resistances.
Mundus
The best Mundus Stone to use here is The Atronach for the extra Magicka Recovery for the self healing and sustain.
Attributes
64 Health is the most useful since your only Heal scales based on Max Health.
Food
As standard we use the Bewitched Sugar Skulls which gives us Max Health, Magicka and Stamina plus more Health Recovery.
Potions
You can use regular Tri-Stat potions here.
