Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Direwolf in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

How to tame as low lvl in ark (mobile, or not)

Get 2-5 fria curry, meat or prime and a ptera

Have health thingies and 4 foundations, 14 doorframes and 2 ramps, wood at least

Drink fria curry everytime you loose the buff and recover when needed

Find wolf

Build 4x4 trap and…

You need to get hide armor beacuse it's cold where they live, have bolas and/or tranq arrows. Knock them out and you'll be fine.

Try not to tame these things near Rexes if you waste time and food on this animal and have it get killed by a pack of rexes, (clicks tongue) good luck getting out there alive 😑

Apparently direwolves aren't a common tame amongst higher level tribes so they're uber good for trading- also essential for early game! Suck it up and go into the arctic for an hour you'll live! Probably!

It’s easy to tame one

Just get a high level with a argy and put them in a stone trap.

You’ll need some prime or kibble and Narcotics for high levels.

Do be wary of Predators that come to attack.

If you ever trying to tame this on your very early game ....

Don't use slingshot !!

You just gonna wasting your time if you use slingshot, coz it won't work to knock them down!!

You need atleast a tranq arrow to knock them.

I breed direwolves and use them for running the artifact caves. A fully imprinted wolf can be significantly better than most dinos that would fit in one of those caves, even with no armor.

Step one: grab it with your argentavis or Quetzal.

Step two: bring it back to your taming den

Step three: shoot it from the outside

There you go. it is ready for tame.

If you are not 62, there are bolas, but it is risky since they travel in pack

If you tame an Eerie Direwolf on mobile, their stats are already ridiculous from their original habitat. Health, admittedly, could be better. These things are BEASTS. Level their health to 10k (or mutate it to 10k, ur choice) and add a little melee and speed, you’ll be…

If you get a male and a female you can breed and have a pack of dire wolves. I put a Dawson in my pack so it could heal my wolves in a bad situation.

(official servers too) If you are gonna tame one, go to Ragnarok, they spawn at very high levels there, get 2 a male and female in 1 run then u should be fine, I got lvl 130 fem and 150 male, now I'm with my first baby wolf at lvl 206.

I got one of these bad boys and they are awesome! I would suggest having at least 4 wolves, 2 females and 2 males, so you can breed and have the alpha boost. The Dire Wolves Are also good out in the wild! They help take out agro things like: sabers, thorny dragon’s, and even…

The Direwolfs found at the Cave Of The Strong at the north are tameable btw...I tamed 3 of those and oh boy, I can destroy everything I see, anything except something stronger like Giga.

All you just need to do is just trap or bola it and use an tranq arrows or tranq darts its easy when its knock out sleep when you wake up feed it some nwrcotics and then tame it up with an prime see? There ya go you have an dirwolf now:)

1. If you want a high level wolf kill the rest of the low level ones with a argy because you can pick up the pack and leave the high level without hurting it. Beware of yuty's and carnos and daedons.

2. You can bola it and knock it out with a club or tranq arrows, and…

You dont need a saddle for them. As soon as you tame them knock their weight up and you can ride them as soon as they wake up.
