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)
More Direwolf Taming & KO Tips
I tryed to trap one but the whole pack followed me in so now I have 6
Did you know that the lvl 390s in the ice cave are tamable you make them agro bring to entrance we’re they can’t fit and tranq but make sure they don’t tame above max tamed lvl 450 good luck it takes 3 hours and 50 minutes to tame on 1x and 500 narcotics. When tamed you can breed super over powered wolves hope this is helpful and hope you read this it’s useful
-Wolf (yes my switch name is Wolf. Sakura if you read this up pls)
Let’s say you want to tame a high-level DireWolf and you find yourself next to a pack, but you forgot your trusty spyglass. The best way to figure out which wolf has the highest level is to get close enough to where they howl but not so close that they can attack.(Remember, they come in packs and have high melee damage), once they howl, the highest-level wolf will emit a red-yellow aura, which usually means they have the highest level and are the alpha.
Hopefully this helped, have a good day/night!
Dam, managed to find me, you win nothing!
Best way to tame is to build a trap.
Step1: place nine foundations in a square.
Step2: place walls on the corners, and place doorways in between the walls, don’t put doors in the doorways.
Step3: place ramps on all the walls and doors leading up to the cage.
Step4:find a pack of direwolfs.
Step5:agro them then run toward your trap.
Step6:run into the trap then out the doorway.
Since direwolfs can only go through double doorways they will be stuck in the box and you can shoot them with tranqs.
P.S use wood cause they can’t damage it.
If this was helpful press the 👆 button -Ember
Make sure when picking it up that you make sure it’s face is facing the opposite way of you so it can’t bite :D press dat ^ arrow!
I think this creatures are too strong... my friend and me see a group of wolfs (we play on ps4) one lvl 140 another lvl 145 (on ps4 is max level of wild dinos 150) we bola all of the 4 wolfs, kill the lowlevels and tame the good ones. After tame we have a women and a men of wolfs (lvl210 and lvl214) and without more skilling they make 654 damage!!!!!! I think the Direwolfs must be not bolable. they opopopopop fithing dinos and very easy to tame. i hope you learn about this tipp and rate 🔼 this to other players see this (we have over 6 wolfs (breeded) and he are verrry strong) (tip: tame so many you can)
im not sure if others are experiencing this, but on mobile whenever i knock out a wolf and move too far away from it while its unconscious, the whole creature disappears forever. just.. straight up ceases to exist. be careful mobile users
How to tame:
You will need:
Tranq arrows or darts doesn’t matter what (or a boomerang) may kill it though Also just a tip tranq arrows from a crossbow may kill it if a low lvl. BOLAS WORK ON THEM SO THAT IS THE BEST WAY
1. Bola (ofc)
2.knock it out
3. MEAT prime- or just normal doesn’t matter really just any meat :)
4. Enjoy no saddle needed like if this helped
Bolas help a ton, but you still need a bit of luck.
You can just take raw meat and tame
