Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Direwolf in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

There was a tip that said it can't damage wood. I built a trap made entirely of wood and lured 10 of them into the trap. They then broke the trap and killed me. Use stone for traps, not wood.

Up so the noobs can see

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

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…

These suckers hunt in packs so be careful, and as with most dangerous animals, you don't have to be faster than the dire wolf......just faster than the person running next to you

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…

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!

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…

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…

Be wary if you think you’ve won.

In numbers, we tend to come.

We typically thrive

in 3 to 5,

So be suspicious when you see only one.

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…

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.
