Are u tired of dying from pack of dire wolves trying to tame one?
Well i have some few tips to tame this brave fearless guy
First of lets prepared the food from most effective to least effective
Carnotaurus kibble/mobile
Raw mutton
Raw prime meat
Cooked prime meat
Just incase
U can find dire wolfs in the cold biomes watch out for rexes. To tame one of these guys i reccomend using the fur set..u can build a box trap using 8 wooden wall 4 wooden foundation and 2 rails
I reccomend using tranq darts or trang ammo for begginers using longneck or crossbow should be good, lure the dire wolf to the box the knock it out by pleasure, the second one is a little bit safer but watch your step. This one called the pillars build a 6 pillars then get on top of it kill the dire wolf that u dont want to tame. And start shooting the high level dire wolf when its running away chase it until its knocked out, once it knocked out put ut food of choice in its inventory and make sure u have bio toxin or narcotics so it dosent wake up until its tamed...now for bonus infos, dire wolf can be ridden without saddle, its really fast among sabertooth and raptors...i guess thats all i can reccomend for you guys and have ur self a very good day!
Have a pack of these and can take out a high level Alfa Rex!!!
Ah... yes.... enslaved furry fandom..
If you're on mobile u can get super op dire wolves by killing and using a revival platform to resurrect the dire wolves in the snow cave
This is how I tamed my wolves, ITS HOW I DO IT, so don't get mad :
Step 1: make 3 or 4 stone foundations, place near wolf spawn.
Step 2: make proper amount of stone doorways for this, preferably 8. Place with foundations.
Step 3: Place 2 wood or metal ramps, since there are no stone ones. Attach them to the doorways.
Step 4: if you have a buff flyer, something that can take the damage, maybe Argy, use it and find wolves and lead them to your trap. Lead them up the ramp, flying over the trap with your tame. The wolves MAY jump out, but you can re-lead them into the trap.
Step 5: When you have successfully trapped as many as you'd like, kill all nearby threats, then tranq the amount of wolves you want. If ones very low lvl or horrible stats, you can kill them.
Step 6: hang out with your wolf cult
I highly recommend taming with raw prime meat. I tamed a black one with prime meat and it started at 52%!!
Dire wolf's can't damage stone so use 4×4 stone doorways and go the doorways high with a ramp perfect trap
On SE they can be found alone in the desert, needles to say they are still dangerous as their speed and attack can kill low level survivors in seconds.
Advise is take bolas and then poke with spears
I can’t recommend these guys more for running caves. They have great knockback, keeping snakes and scorpions away, and they can be tanks if their health is lvled enough (10k is MORE than enough for caves, and alpha battles) they also fit through the exit to the Artifact Chamber in the Hunter’s Artifact cave, making it so much easier to clear that cave again, and again, and again. -BrokenWolves
Best way to tame these beasts on scorched earth when you pick one out fly or jump onto a rock just high enuff so the wolf can not reach you then shoot/trank away and tame your new beast!!! ^_^
yo are these guys good on mobile cuz I just found a pack with a lvl 145 and a lvl 130
Does anybody know if a pyromane that is ridden, not imprinted with 8k hp and 450% melee can solo the spirit dire wolf and spirit dire bear?
Found a pack that led by a lvl 150 female, but she decided that Giga is good food for dinner...
At least my bird managed to grab her lvl 145 husband
You can expect your snow base to be frequently harrassed by these guys. Build spike walls around your base to keep them out or at least make it easier for your tames to take them out. Never go out alone, even a lone mammoth is likely to die from a pack. Unlike raptors or sabers they get a pack bonus like compies, and they get an alpha buff. Shotgun can easily drop individuals.
Just a tip NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER get near a direwolf at a low level u will get shredded when u hear the howl
