Welcome to the Solo Werewolf Build for ESO (Elder Scrolls Online), the build is optimized for solo play. Make sure to bookmark the link as I will keep updating the build for each new Update of ESO. This build is designed for Solo Overland, Dungeons, and the Maelstrom Arena.

If you want a group-focused max DPS Werewolf build please check out the “Claws” Werewolf Build! You can also find all Class setups in the Claws build, whereas here we just focus on the Werewolf part of things! If you are looking for an introduction to Werewolf, I recommend checking out the very detailed Werewolf, everything you need to know guide!

The focus of this build is to give you easily accessible gear choices that are very effective in Werewolf form, which will make it fairly difficult to kill you because you have constant healing going on. We can achieve really high health recovery with this setup, which will always give you constant healing even if you forget to activate your healing ability.

Solo Setup Werewolf Build for ESO

Now let us take a look at the actual SolO Werewolf Build setup.

5x Alessian Order, 5x Briarheart, 1x Swarm Mother, 1x Pale Order with the Artaeum Takeaway Broth buff food.

Unbuffed: Buff food active
Buffed: Buff food, tri stat potion, and carnage buff active

Gear Setups

If you are on a budget:

Alessian & Briarheart: You can actually buy both Alessian and Briarheart from the store for a fairly cheap price as long as you don’t pick the perfect trait.
Blue Quality Jewelry: Blue Briarheart jewelry is very cheap. You really only need to make sure to gold out your weapons for the extra damage on this setup.

Why Heavy Armor?

It provides higher resistance and therefore increases our health recovery because of the Alessian set.
It provides increased healing, which is very helpful for our setup.
It also restores small amounts of resources when we get hit.

Setup 1 with Mythic Item

Ring of the Pale Order is the most powerful healing item set in the game, if you have access to it, I recommend always using it in solo content.

Where can I get the gear?

Troll King: vet Blessed Crucible
Swarm Mother: Spindleclutch 1
Ring of the Pale Order: Antiquities System
Briarheart: Wrothgar or Guildstores
Alessian Order: Cyrodiil, Vlastarus Elite Gear Vendor or Guildstore

There is an unique Dagger for Briarheart that you can acquire from a quest in Wrothgar. Next to the Icy Shore Wayshrine talk to a guy called Eshir and follow his questline. If you do this on two characters, you will get two daggers. You will have to re-trait them though with the transmute station.

Solo Werewolf Skills

If you want human form skill setups please check out the “Claws” Werewolf Build. All the different class setups can be found there. Here I just want to focus on the Werewolf aspect.

Werewolf

Slot 1: Brutal Pounce

Slot 2: Hircine’s Rage

Slot 3: Howl of Agony

Slot 4: Deafening Roar

Slot 5: Claws of Life

Ultimate: Werewolf Berserker

Skill Explanation

Light Attacks: Light Attacks are your main damage tool as a Werewolf, they do immense damage and also apply bleeding on the target.
Heavy Attacks: If you drop low on Stamina, use Heavy Attacks to restore huge amounts of Stamina. This is possible thanks to the Pursuit passive.
Brutal Pounce: Gap closer and applies Brutal Carnage, increasing your Weapon Damage.
Hircine’s Rage: This is your primary heal that you can activate when needed. If you are at max Health and you use this, you regain Stamina and get a damage boost.
Howl of Agony: Your main spammable.
Deafening Roar: This ability fears up to 6 targets and also applies Major Fracture to the enemy.
Claws of Life: This is your main active healing tool. Make sure it stays on all the enemies to keep the healing effect up.
Berserker: The bleed does a lot of damage in addition to the light attack damage.

Human Form Skills

In theory, the Solo Werewolf Build for ESO can complete the Maelstrom Arena (normal and veteran mode) without leaving the werewolf form. However, in reality this can be difficult, especially if you are a new player or if you play the build for the first time. Therefore I included human form skills as well for each class. You can follow the skill setup for each class below but of course you can also use your own skill setup in human form if you prefer that.

Important Info for Solo Stamina Werewolf Build PvE

Buff-food

For this build to truly work in more difficult content such as the veteran Maelstrom, you have to run a fairly expensive buff food called Artaeum Takeaway Broth, you need this one because it gives you A LOT of health recovery that you really need. You can buy it in the guildstores.

For less difficult content you can also use Dubious Camoran Throne.

For more information on all buff food and drinks I recommend visiting the Buff Food and Drink Overview Page.

Mundus Stone

The Lover Mundus Stone provides us with extra penetration, which increases our damage. For more information on Mundus Stones please visit the Mundus Stone Overview Page.

The Lover Mundus Stone (Increased Penetration)

Race

All stamina based races work with this setup. More about each race can be found on the racial overview page.

Dark Elf
Khajiit
Orc
Redguard
Imperial
Wood Elf
Nord
Argonian
High Elf

Potions

You can either use the Essence of Health or the Crown Store potions that provide you with all 3 stats. We are using tri-stat potions because we need the stamina, magicka and health. The stamina is used for our damage abilities, block and dodge roll. Magicka is used for support abilities such as Hircine’s Rage.

Essence of Health
(Max Health, Max Stamina, Max Magicka)
(Columbine, Mountain flower, Bugloss)

Poisons

Damage Health Poison
(Damage Poison, Damage Poison)
(Fleshfly Larva, Nightshade, Nirnroot)

Passives

Class Skill Lines for your Class
Dual Wield: Slaughter, Dual Wield Expert, Controlled Fury, Ruffian, Twin Blade and Blunt
Bow: Long Shots, Accuracy, Ranger, Hawk Eye, Hasty Retreat
Heavy Armor: Resolve, Constitution, Juggernaut, Revitalize, Rapid Mending
Medium Armor: Dexterity, Wind WalkerAthletics, Agility, Improved Sneak
Fighters Guild: Intimidating Presence, Slayer, Banish the Wicked, Skilled Tracker
Werewolf: Pursuit, Blood Rage, Savage Strength
Undaunted: Undaunted Command, Undaunted Mettle
Racial: All
Alchemy: Medicinal Use

Attributes

0 Health, 64 Stamina, 0 Magicka

Resource Management

Heavy Attack is our main resources tool, each heavy attack restores around 4500 stamina, 3000 is base and we also get an extra 50% from the Pursuit passive. Heavy Attacks also deal crazy damage, therefore you won’t even lose damage.

Potions also make a huge difference, if you use the recommended tri-stat potions and activate them, you regain 9122 Health, 7582 Stamina, and 7582 Magicka.. Please make sure to have the Medicinal Use passive, that way the recovery buff will last for the full duration of the potion.

Hircine’s Rage can be used at full health to also restore another 3000 Stamina.

Rotation of the Solo Werewolf Build

Your main damage source is light attacks. Most enemies die within a few light attack hits. You can also charge a heavy attack if you are swapping a target. Other than that you could use Deafening Roar to FEAR enemies, so they get stunned for a short duration.

Gameplay of the Solo Werewolf Build for ESO

Here you can find a full run with the build in the veteran Maelstrom Arena. If you want to learn more about the Maelstrom Arena you can check out the Maelstrom Guide or the Maelstrom overview page.
