* 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 lunar month, matching the RL moon cycles, for the three first days of it straight.
* Remember that turning into a lycanthrope is a '''PERMANENT CHARACTER ALTERATION THAT CANNOT BE UNDONE''' and '''won't be made reversible''' either. This means you'll have access to the benefits the skillset has, the ability to shift between your normal and beast form at any moment out of the full moon... but will also be stuck with its downsides from there on. Because of this, it's highly advised to carefully consider the pros and cons before making the decision.
 
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.
* With gear mods you can also gain good amount of trauma damage - especially form Sangune fangs skill. On top of that you can choose mods that passively boost ALL trauma damage you do when wolf skill lane is active, and even give every wolf attack chance to apply trauma DoT.
* The ability to howl, eventually gaining a morale boost buff from it that will increase your out and in combat health regeneration, alongside small bonus to damage. The morale boost buff can stack up to one hour duration. Each werewolf that howls close by to each other, together boost both effects and max duration - +1h +2hp regen and +1 damage for each. So five werewolves howling in the same place can stack a buff up to 5 hours each. Repeatedly howling will also eventually get you experience on the [[Howling]] sub-skill.
* 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 sub-skill (the more you feed on enemies, the higher this sub-skill will go).
* During the four days before full moon, and the first three days of it (when you're already force-shape shifted), you'll receive the '''Lunacy''' buff, which increases your max health by +30. (Both in your humanoid and beast forms)
* You will receive the option to perform several tasks for Norala, goddess of the hunt, during the full moon. These quests will earn you tokens, which you'll then be able to turn in in exchange for different boons (extra max hp/power, werewolf damage, damage mitigation, abilities...) that will last you until the days prior to the next full moon. See the Full Moon Section for more information.
* Keep in mind that, once you become a werewolf, you'll be especially vulnerable to silver and wolfsbane, both in your humanoid and beast forms. Eating foods that contain wolfsbane, and being hurt by or simply holding a silver weapon on your hand, are sure to cause some serious damage and potentially kill you.
=== In-Game Description ===
* During a real life full Moon You will be stuck as a werewolf. If you are in white wolf form before the full moon you still stay in this form which is preferable due to the form's cold weather mitigation.
* If you wolves try to change forms during the full moon you they will be stuck as the default brown wolf
* The full moon is an event. Make your way Go to [[Kur Mountains]] zone and enter the [[Wolf Cave]] at the Far north and center of the map. Directly Inside the cave is an [[Altar of Norala]]. Completing the altar quests will earn tokens. These tokens disappear if not used during the current full moon. They unlock permanent buffs like 50-60 lycanthrope, 60-70 lycanthrope, and dark wolf form or unlock month long buffs like +%damage, +health, +armor and the coveted +12 run speed bonus buff.
* It is advisable to unlock the dark wolf form last. The number of tokens is limited by the number of quests. Unlocking the level caps and werewolf abilities should be a priority since tokens are "time gated" by the full moon.
 
* Once you become a werewolf, you'll be especially vulnerable to silver and wolfsbane, both in your humanoid and beast forms. Eating food with wolfsbane or holding a silver weapon will harm you.
 
* During the three days before full moon, you'll receive the '''Lunacy''' buff, which increases your max health by +30. (Both in your humanoid and beast forms)
 
* Wolves have the ability to feed on enemy corpses for a regeneration buff that is based on [[Beast Metabolism]]
 
* The ability to howl increases wolve's out and in combat health regeneration and damage. The morale boost buff can stack up to one hour duration. Each werewolf that howls close by to each other, together boost both effects and max duration - +1h +2hp regen and +1 damage for each. Five werewolves howling in the same place can stack a buff up to 5 hours each. Repeatedly howling will also eventually get wolves experience on the [[Howling]] sub-skill.
