Based on the changes to IAS and whatnot, is there anything out there? I'm fascinated by this character and want to make one for GM pvp duels.

I, myself — just yesterday — was searching for an up-to-date Fury guide, too.

Although this video is 4 months old, dbrunski does an excellent job in explaining/summarizing the IAS change (beginning of video til 1min30sec in).

Long story short, with the IAS change, Fury Druids can wear Eth Reaper’s roll (which frees up merc weapon slot), which is killer for decrep procs (to fight physical immunes). I believe many sources point, now, to Eth Reaper for Fury as “best-in-slot.”

Edit: I imagine for pvp, however, you’d go with Grief PB and Stormshield.

I’d like to see how it compares to other eth two handers. Just seems slower

Yep, I remember seeing this video too. I was just curious what the actual IAS breakpoint is now based on various weapons. That, and trying to understand how it works with +1 shapeshifter charms and whatnot.

Yea its quite an improvement for werewolves.

Yea grief/ss is standard for pvp in situations where you need block, but vs casters that two hand damage bite your face off while slashing your throat damage is supreme, and it was only really achievable with Etomb. And there’s nothing quite like the feeling of dueling a caster (especially a hdin) that doesn’t take you seriously, telestomps you, and gets insta killed.

Pvm wise wolves aren’t limited to ribcracker and etomb anymore. Reapers (as demonstrated by your post) may be BIS, but now more budget items like an eth obedience become extremely viable.

It’s nice for a struggling build like the werewolf to have more viable weapon choices now.
