Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a direwolf? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a direwolf.
Use an Argentavis to pick up, have a friend shoot with Tranq arrows while you hover for easy KO.
Theres NEVER just one. If you see one theres 20 on the other side of that rock next to it....
Easy tame they say wolfs dont come in packs they say....
Want to tame a dire wolf? Well, you’ve come to the right place! Before we start here are some tips:
•Don’t approach a whole pack of them. They will tear you to pieces
•The alpha (leader) has an orange red glow when it howls. This also means it’s the strongest
• You can ride them without a saddle on mobile
Now let’s start! You will need to pack:
•1 longneck rifle or 1 crossbow
•10-100 tranq arrows or 10-50 tranq darts ( darts deal more topor)
•20-40 raw meat or 10-30 prime meat
Now when you have that stuff approach a pack or one dire-wolf. Kill off the members of the pack you don’t want. Knock out the ones you do want with your crossbow or Longneck rifle. Feed the raw or prime meat to it and there you go! I hope this was helpful!!
Easy to tame, I normally don't even use a trap.
Just grab a handful of bolas and tranq arrows, darts or whatever you're using to knock it out. Then simply find the wolf you want, bola it and insert tranqs into it's head. Put meat in its inventory once it's down.
Boom you have wolf 🐺
You won’t believe I tamed one of it when I was level 32 and I knock it with club up so more people will see it
Wolves don’t need a saddle so when you are taming just remember that once you finish taming it you can immediately ride it. Good tame fast give some levels on melee damage and stamina and you got a great 🐺.
If u r on ark mobile, then go in the snow cave because they have double level dire wolves compared to the natural spawn ones but with atleast 1000 total armor(u can check it where the character's stats are shown) and kill some with a long range weapon or very good sword but DO NOT HARVEST THERE BODY and take their implant and run out and collect some amber by collecting drops or by farming easy caves and then revive the Wolf and tame it. BOOM now u have a very high level dire Wolf and u can pump up its stats and use it to do other caves or even this one. Thank you!!
The Yeti cave in ARK Mobile is a great source of high lvl wolves. Grab a high lvl implant, revive, then tame the wolf. I have a lvl 865 with 2000% melee damage...
NEVER not look behind you when your taming a wolf who knows a Rex might randomly appear.
Dire wolfs are good for protecting yourbase.
These things are great scouts and have amazing damage for their size. Be careful when taming. Try to trap them so they cant hit you or escape when taming. Always make sure you have stamina on them as they dont move fast when winded.
Taming pens FTW
Legitimately dropped one after another in a pen knocked em all out and now i have 10 wolfs
If you are on foot with a friend and encounter a pack of 6, kick your friend in the balls and dip. The friend will forgive you.....eventually.
Actually pretty easy to tame! Just get a pterodactyl (this is once you get saddle) and get hide on! Fur if you can or wear and otter that’ll help a bit. Make one aggro on you and make a cage (stone) and lead it to the cage with rams going up it. Doesn’t have to be big! Cheap one can be.. (2 stone foundations, 5 stone. Doorways and stone ramps.) hope this helps! Press that arrow pointing up :D
Make a mental about breeding: make sure wolves are passive. After the gestational stage the baby is left " inside" the mother. If the mother is not on passive, when the baby is born they will kill it. I've lost many younglings bc I wasn't paying attention & moving them out the way.
Carried mine with argie make sure to watch your health if u do same
This is how I try to tame direwolves:
1. Bring my Iguanodon to artic.
2. Find a lone direwolf.
3. Lead it back to the warm climate.
4. Escape with my iguano.
5. Come back alone.
6. Bola it.
7. Knock it out with fists.
8. Feed it raw meat if its knocked.
9. Wait.
10. Make sure I have Bio Toxin.
11. Kill more dinos for meat.
(Hint, and help: The more food you put in, no matter how much effect it has, the process will be a tiny bit quicker. KNOCKOUT TAMES ONLY).
12. Feed direwolf ALL meat.
13. Hope it will tame and nothing disturbs it.
14. DEMOLISH ALL RAPTORS IN AREA... (Revenge for my poor still taming argy, who was killed by a stupid raptor...)
15. Repeat process if you want a tamed direwolf pack.
(The only reason I want to tame a dire wolf is because of my dog, Breese IRL.)
Dire wolves are so strong I have a pack and nothing can beat them except a Giga. I highly recommend them.
You can't tame any dire wolf in yeti cave
