What ARK players use the Direwolf for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Getting a TLC patch in March 2018 to add howl that will initiate the pack bonus for 5 minutes, will be able to sniff out players or creatures with less than 50% health, and will be able to detect explorer notes.

Vicious and lightning fast, the Dire Wolf is a great all-around mount for adventuring and attacking. I highly recommended to bring packs of Dire Wolves for any hostile situation. Whether it be kill Alphas, or raid bases, it's size, agility, and damage make for a deadly beast.

Best dino for early game.

Doesnt heed much arrows to tame , just stand on top of a rock and shoot at it. Once tamed it doesnt need a saddle to be ridden. And believe me when i say it absolutly shreds anything!!

Up this so the noobs can see!!

Very important early tame although it may be difficult, it doesn't require a saddle and it gathers lots of hide which is difficult to get early in game

Direwolves are easily my favorite tame on the island, they are extremely good battle creatures especially in packs. Breeding and imprinting (which I did) as well as leveling them up means you can take on nearly everything. It’s extreme mobility and small size means you can…

The dirwolf is excellent for caves, especially in packs. Use for sniffing out explorer notes also.

With no saddle, your wolf will have no means of armor. This means that you're way more prone to damage, so upgrading health is imperative if you want a Dire Wolf that is viable in combat.

For the person who said they don't know why direwolves are the best angler gel gatherers, put ur doggo on the shoreline, go diving and kill an angler, then DRAG THE BODY to the direwolf and have it harvest the angler corpse OR go to the snow cave with a dire wolf and hunt…

Easily one of the best combat mounts in the game. It's cheap to tame and pretty powerful, and there's no level requirement for a saddle. Make sure you tame more than one though, so you can get the mate boost

Why can't they sniff explorer notes on mobile?¿ that's so unfair :<

HELMET!!?? You can equip your direwolf with the helmet of your choice!! I just did it on Mobile anyway!

Not sure where this goes, but if anyone was every wondering how much movement speed it takes on a direwolf to jump from blue obelisk to the western approach, it’s 750
