What are tips for direwolf? Tips and strategies for direwolf in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I’m on mobile and I killed and revived 2 max level wolves and bred them to make a super OP wolf. He’s currently lvl 446 and I use him to no joke speed run the Ice cave multiple times to gather a lot of rewards and blueprints.
Hope this helps
Like 3 of these can kill a rex not even lying
I recommend using a flying tame (Pteradon, Quetza, etc) and also use bolas. They help a ton.
They howl when they see you, so turn on your ears
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 🐺
I got a few of these on mobile with a rex bone helmet skin on ascendant quality hats, my best does about 500 damage and has 3500 health. I named them all Hell Hound Guards, this proves how deadly dire wolves can be. Oh and with the pack bonus the damage increases to the point where it can kill a rex by only 2 bites.
I need to tame it with 2 narcotic arrows because they kill me easily and I need it to have 3000 health all of them
I jumped with one of these guys and they jump so far I jumped off a cliff on accident. Then it got killed by a Spino. 😕
I believe the only way to get a full imprint on a baby wolf is to use eery candy if you don’t use it you’ll still get 95-99% imprint
Some people say to bola them, and its great for early game but I greatly recommend to make a trap for directives. There has been so many times that I've got the one I want in a bola and I've been swarmed by the rest of the pack, soon dying.
However, if you make a trap you then have no risk of being swarmed and you can kill of the low levels easily.
Hope this helped taming your direwolf.
To the person who asked how to find one go to the Arctic that place is swarming with them
(Unless your me who hunted them for fun ;)

These creatures are unstoppable in packs u need to go to hard zone 1 2 or 3 to find them. I try to separate them by baiting them with food and putting all them in a pen made of those wooden spike walls and I hit them with tranq arrows and fed them stacks 20 stacks each was good enough for me and for the bait I got on one of my fastest creatures so that they wouldn’t catch us so I recommend a very fast land creature or a bird to bait them
Awesome tames! I have around fourteen, and most are 99% imprinted. A couple are 100%. But, great for hide, and if you level their health up, and then focus on the alphas stamina, and then melee for all, you get an unstoppable pack. Mine can go through an alpha Rex pretty quickly, and without any casualties. Hope this helps!
