Wolf Attack

[Beramar]

Anybody else had wolf encounters ? I got picked up by one wolf faster then fully armoured soldier... except the soldier i could hit !!! is it me or is it a bug ? i didnt got to hit the wolf no matter which angle i tried....

I managed to kill one w/stone hatchet straight on but the other got me. Pairs r fun and quick death in the beginning.

I killed two today with an axe. They are fast, yes. But for me they bugged out so it was easy to hit them

[Bunyan]

Yes, got hit by three...killed one but was so injured after that I could barlely walk, so fighting wasn't going anywhere.

I will say too that they were FAST and came out of nowhere. I heard the howl but had never seen them before and then they were on me in relentless attack.

If I had a gun equipped I maybe could have survived, but was using an axe. Brutal.

To a non-masochist, being butchered helplessly by multiple wolves when you've got nothing to really defend yourself with yet is not considered 'fun' by a lot of people.

Wolves and bears can be heard from afar and don't go to roads and fields, so if you've been "lucky" to be eaten, you've definitely sprinted in woods. Failed so myself a few times...
If you're jogging, they won't spot you and you'll hear them before the encounter.

Have had plenty spawn in open fields and crossing roads in my game. This trio spawned in the field behind Blace and wandered north across the road, until I messed with them. Actually 2 wolves and a Bear. They were walking together.

The howl is ok, once you hear the growl you better run fast or have a gun with ammo to shoot them all...

well, they can walk to fields and roads, but do not spawn there.

Nicest way of calling me a lair ever. Thanks.

growl means you're really close, but doesn't mean they've spotted you. Many times while hunting I was jogged in howls direction , then slowed to wallking on growls, and spotted wolves walking somewhere.

Well, you did say "Wolves and bears can be heard from afar and don't go to roads and fields", so, you stand corrected. They do indeed go to roads and fields, so people aren't particularly safe there, either. I've seen it plenty of times myself. And there are a lot of animal spawn points quite close to roads.

It was "they do spawn in open fields" that NC has issue with. Hang around Blace/Dol and see.

Crouch down. Focus in and look around to determine which direction they are coming from, then go the other way. You can avoid wolves if you detect them first. I've crossed forests many times and had to give roaming packs some distance to get around them without being seen. If they growl, they are close enough to detect you. Back up with a weapon at the ready and try to put distance between them.

If they do attack, run around a tree or rock so they don't have a direct line of sight to you. If you can shoot them once with a bow (even a crappy one) they will usually run off.

They are deadly if you are not prepared and easy when you are. It's fun when you get a good bow or crossbow and become the hunter instead of the hunted.

I have killed a wolf pack with a katana. They are good at side hopping attacks. If you chose when the fight happens you can get in a lethal hit when they near. Ambushed is another story.....sidestep their lunges and counter strike. If you have low strength or melee I wouldnt wave a stick at the doggy....it just gets them excited.
