I play mobile BTW

Tips in taming a high level wolf in the Island (Hard mode)

Prep:

•A good sword

•1500+armor with cold resistance (I have ascendant chitin armor lol)

•20-30 Ancient Amber (depending on the level of the wolf)

•Grapple (1 is enough but just add more to be sure)

•A long ranged weapon (just make sure it has decent damage and durability)

•Spyglass (to see the level, or you can just go near the wolf but that's just dangerous:)

•Bola (of course you will need this)

•Knockout weapons (tranqs)

•Taming Items (Prime or raw meat, Narcotics, and soothing balm if possible)

Steps

•Go to cave where the artifact of the strong is.

•If you can see some wolves, grapple to the icy ceiling.

•Use your sword while grappled if onycs are attacking you.

•Find the wolf of your dreams

•kill the other enemies in the area using your ranged weapon or sword if you want.

•When all that is left is your choosen wolf, kill it but make sure you don't hit its dead body.

•Check the dead body and get its "Implant"

•Go to an oblisk or revival platform.

•Prepare your bola, taming items and knockout weapons.

•Revive the wolf with your amber and ready to aim the bola.

•Bola the wolf when it's revived then do the taming basics.(knockout and feed)

•If all things go well, then you now have a high level direwolf

I tried a 600+ lvl male wolf and then it turned into a lvl 900 when I finished taming. I wasn't satisfied so I tamed another 600 female wolf, breed them and now I have a lvl 800 wolf with 10000 base HP and 1000% base Melee damage.(It's not much but it's fun cuz I play PVE)
