🔷 B-Tier: Situational, Use with Synergy

  • Fang Piercing — Decent DPS but outscaled by Shadow Strike in late game
  • Shadow Clone — Good for clan wars, niche in Arena
  • Blood Mark — Debuff that's situationally strong against tanks
  • Eternal Rest — Lategame only, too expensive early
  • Vampiric Touch — Low-cost sustain but inferior to Drain Life

⚠️ C-Tier: Avoid or Use Only Level Low

Skills to skip after level 30

  • Flame Ward — Fire res is rarely needed, slot wasted
  • Garlic Repel — Niche PvE utility, zero PvP value
  • Sanguine Flask — Consumable-dependent, replaced by Blood Shield
  • Eclipse Gaze — 10% proc chance ruins reliability
  • Bloody Curse — Debuff countered by most Werewolf tanks
