Werewolf DPS Build for ESO. Werewolf got a full rework in Update 50 and is now a real DPS option for Dungeons and Trials. It plays on one bar with six skills and no weapon swap, works on any class, and has strong single target damage.
This guide covers Werewolf setups for every class. Nightblade, Sorcerer, and Warden keep all three native skill lines and use Class Mastery, while Templar, Arcanist, Dragonknight, and Necromancer subclass for stronger passives, because their Class Masteries are not worth using on Werewolf.
The Nightblade version parses 186,610 DPS with the Medium Armor setup on the 21 million HP Iron Atronach trial dummy. The full per-class ranking is in the Class Choice section.
Works in normal and veteran dungeons, trials, hard modes, Dragonstar Arena, and Blackrose Prison.
I built a simulator that takes the current setup from the guide and plays it through the listed priority rotation. It uses the listed gear, skills, Champion Points, race, Mundus, food, potions, target armor and target health. It tracks skill casts, light attacks, bashes, DoT ticks, cooldowns, execute scaling, crits and status effect rolls. It assumes 100% of light attacks hit, a 0.012 second weave average, and bash weaving.
Comparison tables in this guide use the deterministic sim on the 21 million HP Iron Atronach trial dummy. The Base Setup is treated as the default.
For comparison tables I keep the setup identical and change one thing at a time. That makes the tables better for comparing options than random dummy parses, where one run can get better crits, different status effects or a better execute window.

Class Masteries are a new U50 system where each class picks 2 of 5 passive bonuses (Class Mastery Points, not Skill Points). Activating subclassing disables Class Mastery, so it's a tradeoff between keeping your native skill lines or subclassing.
What Works in Werewolf Form
Class choice still matters even on a Werewolf build. Some class passives and Class Masteries keep working while you're in form.

 Sorcerer |
Unholy Knowledge , Persistence , Blood Magic (only with Conservation of Energy ), Expert Summoner (Dire Wolves count), Capacitor , Energized , Amplitude , Power Stone | Conservation of Energy , Static Reverberation , Calculated Defense |
 Warden |

Priority List
This is just a list of priorities. Simply recast abilities when they run out and follow this list of priorities when there are multiple things to refresh.
Static Rotation
This might be easier for some players, but it is weaker than the priority list.
Rampage stays outside this repeating Static Rotation. Cast it when Fury is full.
Pre-buff
Execute
Stop refreshing DoTs when the boss is about to die. The timing is impossible to advise on because it depends on the boss's Max Health and your DPS

A base setup that will work for most situations and which should be your starting point when making situational setups. It assumes your group provides Major Breach , Minor Breach , Infused Crusher and nothing more
Switching gear for trash packs isn't worth it unless you're using gear-swap addons
Light Armor gives penetration through the Concentration passive, so it doesn't depend on your group composition. Medium Armor can be stronger but needs your group to provide penetration, for example through Roar of Alkosh . Use Light Armor if you don't know what your group brings, Medium Armor if you do.

Most of the time you should use Armor potions. They'll provide you with 5280 armor and you don't need sustain from your potions since Werewolf abilities are cheap and free during Rampage .

Yes. Werewolf got a full rework in Update 50 and is a real DPS option for Dungeons and Trials. It plays on one bar, works on any class, and has strong single target damage.
Nightblade. Class Masteries keep working in Werewolf form, and An Eye for Exploitation with Above and Beyond is the strongest combination for Werewolf damage. The full ranking with numbers is in the Class Choice section.
Depends on the class. Subclassing disables Class Masteries, so Nightblade, Sorcerer, and Warden do best staying pure class. Templar, Arcanist, and Dragonknight have weaker masteries for Werewolf, so they subclass instead, the exact setups are in the Class Choice section.
The form drains 100 Ultimate every 10 seconds, but you keep generating Ultimate while transformed, mostly from Light Attacks. The Call of the Hunt passive brings the drain down to 68 per 10 seconds, and the drain stops while Rampage is active and when you're out of combat, and thanks to Feral Pounce's Fury generation you'll have very high Rampage uptime.
Werewolf locks you into 5 Werewolf abilities with no access to class skills once you transform, so you can't slot situational skills that some fights need. It is also melee only, and its cleave is bad unless you remorph for a cleave setup.
