Hi, PVM or PVP?

I can tell you that i had/have a inzane good werewolf with fury and rabies and teleport on d2lod.
So i made one on d2r.

And Rabies is destroyed for pvp in D2r. They totally messed it up:
- If u shapechange to human after rabies hit, it will completely stop dealing damage.
- If enemy gets outside ur minimaprange rabies completely stops dealing damage and will not start again after re-entering range.
- Its also inconstistent in other scenarios as well.
- Swapping to death web side seems to have no effect as well.

That beeing said it can work in pvm, where u stay in wolf shape and within range and enemies dont teleport away.
I would then use bramble. You can use Act5 frenzy merc with Lawbringer + LW/Plague + Duress + Arreat/Guillaume
Then the thorns/summon/decreap combi will help a lot as well.

That gear dont exists in d2r :P

Tele rabies dont work as good in d2r either.

But i would do something like this:

68 Fcr setup:
2dru/20fcr/30frw/2soc/adds diadem 'Cham+BER OR SHAEL OR LO OR 15ias/15@' <--- CHECK Ias break on warren ias calc.
Enigma
Arach
Trang oul's
HL
Gores/shadows
10fcr/adds ring
Wisp/Raven/Dwarf/Carrions/SOj
Eth tomb or Grief BA/EbotZ + Stormshield
SWAP: Dweb(+5/-55/2all skills + Jmod 20/-20

99fcr setup:
2 fcr rings
2/19 ammu
Rest same.

Inventory:
Cube: Cta + 1or2 sojs + mara + demon limb
Torch
Annie
8 x shape sks
Whatever you need from scs, most likely 5@/life scs

Slower fcr setup:
Metamoprh 3fury/3rabies
Wep + Shield /// 2 hander
Enigma
Trang oul's
Arach/Dungo
Fcr ring / dwarf / wisp / raven
Gores/Shadows/Infernostrides
HL
Most likely you go 48fcr setup then.

Anyway, i suggest you play around in planner and have both planner and warrens ias calculator ready.

Then add theese items:
Helms:
Metamorph helm 3fury/3rabies
2/20/30/2soc/nice adds helm

Wepons:
Grief Ba
Grief PB
Fury
Plague
Dweb
Fool's wep
Death ezerker
Eth tomb reaver
Demon limb

Shields:
Stormshield(most likely 15ias/15@ jool)
Pheonix mon
Spirit mon
Jmod(20/-20psn)

Armor:
Enigma

Boots:
Gores
Shadows
Infernostrides
3resi/30frw/add

Ammu:
HL
Cats
2/19/adds (i suggest with @ res + add)
Maras

Gloves:
Always trangs if pvp

Rings:
10fcr/nice adds
Raven
Wisp
Dwarf
Carrions
Soj

Invtory:
Cube
SHape sks
Torch
Annie
Scs

I dont know ur budget etc... Playing around in planner can help you.
Remember metamorph can give u nice adds from both bear and wolf shape.
