I like skull cowl, to bad it has low base life.
I just dont think the build is right. Wolf > bear and 160str is a waste. Would use bloodfist over IK gloves anytime and stick with the 24fhr str life belt, its a nice on you have.
The fhr and fbr are horrible on a bear, unless you wanna use all those shaels but in wolfform you can replace those with better jewels or w/e.
The extra AR/fhr/fbr in wolfform are well worth the little life and defens bonus from bear. The physical damage is crap anyway so just stick with waraxe, naga req to high str.
But when you say bear looks better then wolf... your right
