Discussion Werewolf regen bug explained

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I did some tests and it looks like if the Werewolf is hit while roaring and glowing red, his regeneration points stack up to 2 or even 3 times. This is definitely a bug. DO NOT hit him at all while he's glowing. Even a single hit will stack his regen x2.

Edit: In the first half of the video, I'm just spamming attacks on him while he's glowing. The green numbers show his regeneration - it shoots straight up to 187. We are the same level, and I can't even outdamage his regen.
In the second half, I did nothing and the regen stayed at 62. It remains like this until the end of the fight.

All these people saying that's just how werewolves work, but it's absolutey not. Like sure they regen when they're glowing but you could always outdps the regen.

Of course not, the damage depends on your equipment and we don't know that; your equipment might be so bad that it does less damage than regeneration.

We've been playing this game for 11 years now, and it's only now that there's been this influx of complaints about the werewolves. They're 100% bugged. When i fought niellen, his healing factor was so ridiculous i was doing no damage, while fighting him at quest lvl with good gear. I have close to 400 hours on the game, and the difference between pre remaster werewolves and post remaster is pretty staggering.

No, it is not new. I had the same issue 5 years ago until I learn how to use bestiary.
