PvP- wolf or bear druid?

[Samohtnnam]

I have read the sticky guides (ok scimmed), and I can't differentiate the guides from PvM and PvP. My preference is a shapeshifter PvP druid (wolf or bear). A windy druid build does not interest me. I will be soloing and partying. I like to play softcore, never hardcore.

Can anyone point me to a good build?

Thanks for you help =).

OOo heil ya.


Soutewolfs guild will work. He did forget to add in ebotd gpa. But other then that its the build for pvp f/r werewolves.

Soutewolf's guide is great. Now I don't know if I should use a shield or not. Any suggestions? I have a Botd maul on my Ik barb I'm not using...

Thanks for the links superjason. Did you make a FC Bear for ladder 4, and how effective has it been in PvP? I am afraid most public duelers will stack fire resists and absorb gear.

So far I am leaning towards the Fury/Rabies wolf build.

I still don't see anything definitive towards using a shield or not (except with the FC bear build by superjason, which is to use SS). I guess this debate is in all the class forums.

i havent played much on ladder since the reset. When I was on ladder I did quite well ;p

i dont get many people stacking res or absorbing, most people either dont bother or have too many more important items stashed away ;p

both builds are really good and unique and viable in PvP, the fury/rabies probably being a bit more expensive though.
