I just wonder....The Buriza is tried and true, but what about goldstrike arch, eaglehorn, windforce, etc. Has anyone build a wereform around those bows?A bear with a 40% WIAS hydra bow (WF with a shael) would have roughly a 12 frame attack (based on Heri's speed calculator, which I don't fully trust for wereforms), and could potentially get that down to a 10 frame attack with external IAS. A slvl 20 wolf would have a 9 frame regular attack and a 4 frame fury (again, take these number's with a grain of salt - I've seen that calculator return 3 frame fury for some setups, and I'm pretty sure that's not what happens in-game).
If you have a spare Windforce kicking around (I've never even seen one) - trying it on a werewolf probably would work just fine, but it might be a tad slow on a bear, depending on your tastes.
Eaglehorn is quite dubious - not enough weapon IAS possible.
Goldstrike arch with a shael (70% WIAS) seems like it would be decent too. The calc claims an 8 frame werebear attack, and 8norm/3fury for a slvl 20 werewolf (I highly doubt the 3).
