Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a direwolf? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a direwolf.
I tryed to trap one but the whole pack followed me in so now I have 6
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.

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!
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)
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)
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
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
Bolas help a ton, but you still need a bit of luck.
please tame one of your a good level!! i love mine so much and you will too. me and t-bone have killed two rex and all kinds of other big dinos. you won’t regret doing this!!!
If you want to tame one than do this:
Bring some tranq arrows [20-30 just in case if you miss]
Find the one you want to tame
Tranq it out
Lead the rest of its pack to where you can kill them
Put some prime in its inventory [bring 10-12 just in case]
Then you will have a Dire Wolf
I hope this was helpful
Hey u yea u if u tame this u can put hats on it
DO NOT TRY TO TAME ONE OF THIS IN THE CAVE! They cannot be tamed! I literally spent about an hour killing everything in the area except the wolf I wanted to tame and found out it WILL NOT EAT!
Use an Argentavis to pick up, have a friend shoot with Tranq arrows while you hover for easy KO.
Theres NEVER just one. If you see one theres 20 on the other side of that rock next to it....
These guys are great tames! Here is a quick tutorial to take them.
You need:
1x bow or better
1x bola
Amount of tranqs depend on the level.
Bola the direwolf then shoot it with your tranqs arrows then put meat in it's inventory.
Enjoy your new direwolf. They are strong and also make cute pets.
If you’re wanting to tame a high level one, when you approach them, they will howl, and the highest level one in the pack will get red and yellow particles around it. Hope this helps and thanks for reading!
These are relatively easy to tame 1. Lead it away from pack 2. Lead it to a Dino that won’t run away 3. Tranq it out 4. Feed prime or regular meat. Enjoy your new friend! ^
Easy tame they say wolfs dont come in packs they say....
You won’t believe I tamed one of it when I was level 32 and I knock it with club up so more people will see it
