Piercing Howl causes Physical Damage to a single opponent, and also knocks them down. The Howl of Despair morph adds the ON-icon-synergy-Feeding Frenzy.png Feeding Frenzy Synergy, which increases your allies' attack damage. Or you can choose Howl of Agony, which causes additional damage to targets afflicted by the Fear status. This morph works best with Roar, as that will cause fear in your opponents. Otherwise, it is mostly only useful immediately after a Werewolf Transformation, unless your allies also have Fear abilities.

Patch Notes[edit]

  • Added some new werewolf abilities:
    • Hircine's Bounty: This ability is a large heal that costs magicka.
    • Infectious Claws: This ability instantly deals damage to all enemies in front of you and causes disease damage over time.
    • Piercing Howl: This ability deals high damage and stuns your enemy.
  • Feeding Frenzy (synergy): The Synergy prompt for this ability will now properly disappear when you can no longer use it.
  • This ability and its morphs no longer stun the target.
  • Decreased the cost of this ability and its morphs to 3510 Stamina from 4050.
  • Updated the visual effects for this ability and its morphs.
  • Howl of Despair: The synergy now grants the ally Empower for all Light Attacks for 5 seconds. Previously, it granted 10% more Light and Heavy Attack damage for 15 seconds.
  • Reduced the cost of this ability to 2869 from 3510, and reduced the damage dealt by approximately 14%.
  • Howl of Agony: This morph no longer ranks up in 1.1% damage, but instead increases the damage dealt on a Feared target, up to 33%.
