More Direwolf Taming & KO Tips
They can spawn in packs of 3 up to 5 at a time and when the highest level direwolf in the pack gets close enough to you it will point its head to the sky and howl, then after a second the other direwolfs will howl, after about 7 seconds straight of just howling their heads will turn back down and you will get rekt since they get a buff that increases their damage resistance and damage and also stacks multiplicitively with the mate boost so each one can do 55 damage or more with said buffs.
The best way to tame one of these is to kidnap one using a flyer like an argy then bring it somewhere safer, or kill the other direwolves first, then wearing armor tranq the one you want to tame in the head using a crossbow until it knocks out. Then just feed it food until it tames.
They also won't attack you if you are underwater but dont use this to knock one out as it will most likely be with 2 or more direwolves.
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.
