Werewolf Solo


Last updated: Update 44 - 23rd January 2025

This build is capable of soloing every Veteran dungeon that doesn’t have a specific mechanic that requires multiple people. It’s 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.

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 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

0

STAMINA

64

MAGICKA

0

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 you’ll be able to get away with 32 Health 32 Stamina, for the extremely difficult stuff you’ll 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 Sorcery and Major Prophecy which are crucial. You can craft them by combining Blessed Thistle, Dragonthorn and Wormwood.
