Skills & Gems

Shapeshift into a Werewolf and leap to a target location, damaging enemies in an area around where you land. Predator's Mark will be Triggered targeting the highest Rarity enemy Hit, or if a Mark gem is socketed into this Skill, that Mark will be Triggered instead. Using this Skill allows any Wolf Minions you have to leap immediately.

Ferocious Roar(Lv7)3 gems

Shapeshift into a Bear and roar in defiance, immediately gaining Rage if there are enemies nearby and Empowering subsequent Attacks to Break Armour. Alternatively, socketing a human-form Warcry into this Skill triggers that Warcry instead, and augments its damage and area. This Skill's cooldown can be bypassed by expending an Endurance Charge.

While active, enemies you sufficiently Overkill with non-Herald Attacks will cause an explosion that Ignites nearby enemies based on the Overkill damage dealt.

Magnified EffectSupports any skill with an area of effect, making it larger.Lv1
