Wolf

Wolves are among the very first enemies you run into, and they keep showing up for the rest of the game. They hunt in packs, and a howl usually warns you before they arrive. The pack leader is a bit tougher than the rest and has a different colour.

In Limgrave they roam Mistwood, Stormhill and Groveside Cave. In Liurnia of the Lakes they wander open ground and cave mouths, and on the Altus Plateau they lurk in forests and on cliffsides. In the Realm of Shadow you find them near Rivermouth Cave on the Gravesite Plain, and in Scadu Altus around Bonny Village, the Cathedral of Manus Metyr and Recluses’ River Upstream.

How to beat it

One wolf is barely a fight. A whole pack is another story, because they spread out and bite from all sides. Keep your back to a wall, or fight from Torrent, and take out the leader early. Do not try to escape on foot; they are faster than you.

Sometimes wolves pick fights with other creatures. In a gorge near the Third Church of Marika, a big pack is busy attacking a Runebear, and they lose badly if you leave them to it.

Lore

You can call three ordinary wolves to your side with the Lone Wolf Ashes.
