Non-splat Werewolf

[swirly]

So I made it back to 47 with this character. She was feeling a bit less powerful than my other one due to weaker gear. I also was feeling slightly less happy with Sweeping Wind and so I tried swapping it out for Mystic Ally (whatever the water one is called) as a test for what the earth one would be like later on. Then I proceeded to be trapped by a swarm of scorpion things in Act 3 and die. So this tells me a couple of things. Using extra mats does indeed make a noticeable strength difference in a character (I'd say about the equivalent to the difference in having a frenzy shrine and not having one.) It also tells me that I either need Sweeping Wind to clear out masses like that or need something like Tempest Rush to escape such situations. Possibly both. So the question now for me is when I reroll do I plan on using Tempest Rush instead of Seven Sided Strike (which I was liking this time) or do I plan on using it instead of Sweeping Wind. Things did feel like they were dying slower without Sweeping Wind so I'm thinking that I'll go back to using that and swap Tempest for Seven. I lose an invulnerabilty, but gain an escape. I might just go back to the drawing board some instead though cause there are other things I am interested by like the dodge adding rune instead of the teleport/AOE one. So the whole build is rather up in the air now for me. I think what really killed me though was simply not being able to get away for a moment which Tempest would indeed solve.
