Werewolf is impossible
I know that werewolf is practically invincible and you're suppose to use celerity to try to outrun him but the problem here is, I'm a ventrue, I have no celerity discipline. The werewolf is way too fast, like literally way way way way too fast to even react and it is very impossible for me to outrun him, there is just no way. Everytime I get hit the werewolf will pull me back to him and I get stunlock til I die. At most I'm only able to dodge one attack and after that I will get hit. How the hell is it even remotely possible to survive even 10 seconds. This is me using the unofficial patch. Did the unofficial patch bump his movement speed this damn high?

That's why you have disciplines. Ventrue have Fortitude. Use it. Presence as well. Also, you should have by now bumped your defence stat. If you can't survive the werewolf, the later stages are going to be a pain. It's kind of a "have you been paying attention" test.
Also, you're not supposed to outrun him, you're supposed to hide in the building nearby. He can't reach in there and will give you a few seconds break as you avoid him. You can also kill him there and it takes like 10 seconds to do it.

I tried to get into the building but still not possible, he keeps pulling me backwards. I even used fortitude and its still not good enough. Also my def is at max with the +4 heavy armor that my ghoul gave me.

Nope and nope?
I've just dealt with him just fine as a malk with the basic version of the unofficial patch, and it didn't feel like I really needed to outrun him. Yeah, he hit me once but then I was able to recover and get to the building.

What are you in-game char's stats at this point?

Can you make a video of what's happening? Cause you're definitely not "supposed" to do anything you dont even need disciplines to defeat him. And he can't really stunlock you, unofficial patch or not.

I'll see what I can do,

I actually came back to the werewolf after beating the game cause I had to use God mode at that time just to get this part over with. This time I'm trying without god mode and still find him to be 10 times more difficult than the final boss.

I wonder if it could be some sort of issue which affects the animations, as when people were having trouble opening doors do to framerate, before (I believe) wesp5 set the maximum framerate to 90 in the unofficial patch?

So a miracle happen while I was recording and finally manage to beat him, the werewolf for some reason stopped in its track at 1:05 which never happened before, I know I should have taken advantage of that and continue to run instead of stopping there just to watch but skipping to the part where I got damaged 1:32, the were wolf swiped at me 2 times in quick succession that is usually the main cause of me not able to reach the building most of the time.

Skip to 0:40
I making another recording and this is usually my failed attempt, at the part where I'm about to get inside the building, I dont know what happen there cause its like there is a small force that is trying to push me backwards.

Congrats on beating him! :steamhappy:

Thanks for the videos, i watched them and i don't see a problem with it. As far as i can tell, this is how it has always been. He's supposed to kinda knock you around or rather "backwards" toward him. But i didn't see him stunlock you here so i guess all is good.

You just have to keep running, don't stop when he hits you. I know your character needs to recover, but the WW won't hit you so many times to instakill you without giving you a chance to run away. That's why there's a building. You can't outrun him outside, but inside a building, he's way easier.
