Last updated: Update 44 - 23rd January 2025

This build is capable of soloing every Veteran dungeon that doesnt have a specific mechanic that requires multiple people. Its also capable of soloing most Hard Mode dungeons, and with some adjustments even the more difficult ones.

CLASS CHOICE

Class choice does have some impact even you commit completely to being a Werewolf, because some of the class passives will continue working in the Werewolf form.

Class	Passives that work in Werewolf form
Dragonknight	Combustion, World in Ruin, Iron Skin, Scaled Armor
Arcanist	Harnessed Quintessence, Erudition
Sorcerer	Unholy Knowledge, Persistence, Expert Summoner (Dire Wolves count), Capacitor, Energized, Amplitude
Warden	Maturation, Glacial Presence, Icy Aura, Piercing Cold
Necromancer	Rapid Rot, Last Gasp, Curative Curse
Templar	Burning Light, Balanced Warrior, Restoring Spirit
Nightblade	Master Assassin, Executioner, Refreshing Shadows

The classes that provide the best benefits for Werewolves are Templar and Sorcerer.

GEAR

This is the crafted gear setup you can start with.

Gear Slot	Set	Weight/Type	Trait	Enchantment
Head	Assassin's Guile	Medium	Training /Divines	Stamina
Shoulders	Assassin's Guile	Medium	Training /Divines	Stamina
Chest	Threads of War	Medium	Training /Divines	Stamina

Ring	Order's Wrath	Jewelry	Bloodthirsty	Increase Physical Harm
Frontbar Main Hand	Order's Wrath	Any 1-handed weapon	Charged	Shock
Frontbar Off Hand	Order's Wrath	Any 1-handed weapon	Charged	Flame

ADDITIONAL INFO:

Use Training traits if you're still leveling. If you're already max level and have enough Champion Points you can instead use Divines
Change Flame enchant to Frost if you're a Warden

This is my suggested setup.

Gear Slot	Set	Weight/Type	Trait	Enchantment
Head	Valkyn Skoria	Light	Divines	Stamina
Shoulders	Ansuul's Torment	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Chest	Ansuul's Torment	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Hands	Ansuul's Torment	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Belt	Essence Thief	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Legs	Ansuul's Torment	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Boots	Ansuul's Torment	Medium	Divines	Stamina
Necklace	Essence Thief	Jewelry	Bloodthirsty	Increase Physical Harm
Ring	Essence Thief	Jewelry	Bloodthirsty	Increase Physical Harm
Ring	Ring of the Pale Order	Jewelry	Bloodthirsty	Increase Physical Harm
Frontbar Main Hand	Essence Thief	Any 1-handed weapon	Charged	Shock
Frontbar Off Hand	Essence Thief	Any 1-handed weapon	Charged	Flame

ADDITIONAL INFO:

Order’s Wrath is an extremely powerful set despite being crafted so it's a good replacement for Ansuul’s Torment if you don't have access to it
Arms of Relequen is situationally better than Ansuul’s Torment in Single Target fights where you can keep up the stacks
Change Flame enchant to Frost if you're a Warden

CHAMPION POINTS

Warfare

Deadly Aim (6% Single Target Damage)
Weapons Expert (20% Light and Heavy Attack Damage)
Fighting Finesse (8% Critical Damage and Healing)
Master-at-Arms (6% Direct Damage)

Fitness

Boundless Vitality (1400 Max Health)
Sustained by Suffering (150 Health, Stamina and Magicka Recovery when debuffed)
Rejuvenation (90 Health, Stamina and Magicka Recovery)
Fortified (1731 armor)

ADDITIONAL INFO:

When soloing extremely difficult dungeons you should replace Master-at-Arms and Fighting Finesse with 2 of the 4 mitigation CPs (Ironclad, Duelists Rebuff, Enduring Resolve, Unassailable)
In fights with lots of adds Siphoning Spells and Bloody Renewal can be stronger than Rejuvenation and Sustained by Suffering

RACE

When it comes to solo PvE, you need both damage and survivability so pretty much all races have useful racials.

The best race for dealing damage is Khajiit. While the Critical Damage from Feline Ambush can sometimes be wasted due to Critical Damage being capped at 125%, it will never happen in solo content, because there will be no tanks or healers providing you with the Major Force buff.

The best race for survivability is Nord. The Rugged Rugged racial will provide around 6% damage mitigation.

MUNDUS

For overland content you should use The Thief Mundus, which increases your Critical Chance.

For instanced content you should use The Lover Mundus, which increases your Penetration.

For extremely difficult dungeons you should consider switching to The Lady Mundus, which increases your Armor.

ATTRIBUTES

HEALTH

STAMINA

MAGICKA

For most content you should put all 64 points into Stamina. For difficult content you should devote as many attribute points as necessary to Health - for some content youll be able to get away with 32 Health 32 Stamina, for the extremely difficult stuff youll need 64 Health.

FOOD

Most of the time you should use the Orzorga's Tripe Trifle Pocket.

Other decent foods:

Artaeum Takeaway Broth - it will increase your Max Stamina at the cost of a bit of Max Health and Stamina Recovery. The Max Stamina will increase your DPS and you can get away with using it when doing easier content.
Orzorga's Smoked Bear Haunch - this food can allow you to sustain more Hircine's Fortitude casts in fights with massive incoming damage.

POTIONS

Use the Weapon Power potions (Increase Weapon Power, Weapon Critical, Restore Stamina). They'll greatly improve your sustain and provide Major Brutality and Major Savagery which are crucial. You can craft them by combining Blessed Thistle, Dragonthorn and Wormwood.
