Transform into Werebear and charge Maul by hitting enemies — each successive hit increases damage for the next. After 3-4 hits, your Maul strikes deal devastating damage. Use Shockwave for crowd control when surrounded. The Werebear form grants significant bonus life, making you one of the tankiest characters in the game. Pair with Fire Claws for a hybrid approach against physical immunes.
Grief Phase Blade provides the flat damage that Maul multiplies. Fortitude armor for +300% Enhanced Damage. Jalal's Mane or a rare +3 Maul pelt for the helm slot. Gore Rider boots for Crushing Blow and Deadly Strike. String of Ears or Verdungo's for damage reduction.
Strength for gear. Everything else into Vitality.
Act 2 Offensive (Might) for physical damage. Infinity for immunity breaking.
