File:Werewolf (beast form).jpg
A player using Werewolf form.
“Skill in fighting as a wolf beast. Also indicates your ability to control and suppress the beast mode.
Fighting in Werewolf form is similar to Unarmed fighting, but you're using your claws and teeth instead of your fists.
Harry the Wolf in Serbule Keep may know a thing or two about Werewolves. Hint

Overview
Beast form makes for a very powerful animal form. You'll be able to change to and from it at will, with the following limitations:
- You may become a wolf at any given moment, but your beast spirit will resist turning back to humanoid form until you've killed enough enemies (the higher your level, the less kills you'll require).
- During the full moon, you will be forcefully turned into your beast form, and won't be able to turn back until it's all over. This happens once every seven days, for the whole day. (This mechanic will be soon changed in an upcoming patch, to three days in a row once a month, matching with the RL full moon cycles)
While you're in beast form, you will have the following abilities, among others:
- The ability to combine different moves, dealing mainly crushing and slashing damage, with several side effects such as stuns, heavy armor damage, bleeding, and even a special "pack attack" that will deal increased damage for each werewolf attacking the same enemy. As you find Lycanthrope gear, you will gain several combos from it, similar to unarmed meditation or sword calligraphy ones, that will give you even more effects and aoe options.
- The ability to howl, eventually gaining a morale boost buff from it that will increase your damage and regeneration. (Supposedly improves with the Howling subskill, altho the means to level up this subskill consistently and its effects are rather obscure).
- The ability to feed on enemy corpses (currently, no limit to what you can eat, even tornadoes!), gaining a very nice regeneration buff from this, for a duration that will depend on your Beast Metabolism subskill (the more you feed on enemies, the higher this subskill will go).
