WerewalkerWerewalker – Turns you into a wolf for a short time, letting you move quickly. Your body stays behind until you attack to exit wolf form. Attacking in wolf form executes most enemies and deals very high damage, so use it to finish or instantly kill them.

PackhunterPackhunter – Summons a spectral wolf. Using it again summons a second wolf. They automatically attack nearby enemies and protect you. They do high damage, cannot be killed, and can’t be directly controlled.

HowlHowl – Boosts your damage and smite chance. Use it at the start of fights for an easier time and take advantage of smite procs for more damage.

Joineries

Aim to get at least a Polished version of the Joinery if you can't get your hands on a Blessed by Mora. Keep in mind that changing to a different Blessed version like Blessed by Saphene, this will also change your main stat on the weapon to Grace or Spirit. So if you do use a Blessed variant, make sure its a Mora.

With SoulboundSoulbound boosting damage, keep in mind that this is a main node to level but not before you get to Mora's PrideMora's Pride which increases Courage without the need for allies. AkinAkin is also particularly useful as it lowers the CD on your abilities, making it possible to use them much more often.
