I can do TA easily, but Fautz I die a lot still. My survivability seems low, and my damage only mediocre. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

please post also your skill order

Lifeblood 14/14
Symbiosis 4/4
Faerie Fire 14/14
Elvensong 28/28
Elfin Weapons 3/27
Wearwolf Form 29/29
Harbringer 10/27
Feed the Pack 26/26
1 point in all prereqs and twisted claw

+10 skills overall

These are my stats postbuff in ww form

As you use Quarak's will wich gives you 333 life on kill = this allows you to not max feed the pack and allocate points to elfin weapons instead. Try following skills:

Lifeblood 14/14
Symbiosis 4/4
Faerie Fire 6/14
Elvensong 28/28
Elfin Weapons 27/27
Wearwolf Form 29/29
Harbringer 10/27
Feed the Pack 10/26
1 point in all prereqs and twisted claw


This should allow you to get much more crushing blow and killing speed. it also boosts your survaivability as you kill faster and leech faster.

if you think you ran out of mana fast you can also use

Teganze Pendant

Teganze Pendant
Amulet
Required Level: 60
Item Level: 70
+1 to All Skills
+10% to Fire Spell Damage
+10% to Lightning Spell Damage
+10% to Cold Spell Damage
Maximum Life +(3 to 5)%
Maximum Mana +(20 to 30)%
Elemental Resists +10%
+(13 to 38) Mana after each Kill

so you dont need to stop for mana so often.

if you have high crushing blow and damage modifiers then ATMG is better

[Bliyadolubov]

man. why not using wolf druid set. its not bad.

[Tkorpi]

man. why not using wolf druid set. its not bad.

cause you can get much better setup with rw's and early SU's. also that set is not really intended for harbinger wolf druid as procs doesnt work with it.
