The '''Dire Wolf''' is the toughest of the wolves. It attacks on sight, hits hard for its size and needs 83.1 Animal Taming. Taming them has its own New Bradford achievement.

== Overview ==
* '''In-game name:''' ''a dire wolf''
* '''Corpse:''' ''a dire wolf corpse''
* '''Behavior:''' it attacks the nearest target it sees and fights in melee.

* '''Success chance.''' For a first-time tame, your chance of success at the end of an attempt is about '''34% at 100.0 skill''', and it improves as your skill rises. Every previous owner adds 6 points to the difficulty.
* '''Don't hurt it.''' If it takes any damage during your attempt, taming fails with ''"The animal is too angry to continue taming."''
* '''Stay close.''' You must stay within 6 tiles of it and keep a clear path to it.
* '''Obedience.''' Once tamed, how often it obeys depends on your Animal Taming and Animal Lore (taming counts four times as much as lore). With both at 83.1 it obeys about 70% of the time, and at about 88.0 it reaches the 99% maximum. Below 83.1 the chance drops quickly, to as low as 22%.
* '''Re-taming.''' If you've owned this one before, taming it again always succeeds (''"That wasn't even challenging."'').
* After its first tame, its skills drop to '''90%''' of their wild values, or 86% if it was paralyzed while you tamed it. Its stats don't drop.
* '''Dark wolf familiar.''' The taming code lets a tamer whose summoned familiar is a '''dark wolf''' always tame dire, grey, timber and white wolves. ''Whether players can summon a dark wolf familiar on New Bradford hasn't been checked.''

=== Pack instinct ===
Dire wolves hunt better in groups. When several of your pets from the same pack group (the canine group: wolves, dogs and hell hounds) attack the same creature while standing next to it (within 1 tile), each gets extra melee damage:
* 2 pets: +25%
* 3 pets: +50%
* 4 pets: +75%
* 5 or more: +100%
All the pets must have the same owner. The bonus only applies against other creatures, not against players.

=== Bonding ===
Only the owner can bond with a dire wolf, and they need at least '''83.1 Animal Taming''' (base skill). Feed it to start bonding, then feed it again after '''7 days''' to finish. When you see ''"Your pet has bonded with you!"'', it's done.

=== New Bradford achievement ===
Every dire wolf you tame counts toward the '''Tame 100 Dire Wolfs''' goal in your Achievements. Only your first tame of each dire wolf counts. Re-taming one you've owned before doesn't.

== Loot ==
It carries no loot.

=== Carving ===
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
* '''1 raw ribs'''
* '''7 spined hides''', doubled to '''14''' in Felucca

== Tips ==
* It attacks you on sight, so be ready to fight or run while you tame it.
* At 100.0 skill each attempt has about a 34% chance.
* Wolves, dogs and hell hounds share a pack group, so a team of them earns the pack instinct bonus.
* Taming 100 of them earns the '''Tame 100 Dire Wolfs''' achievement (that's how the game spells it).
* Carve the corpse for spined hides, doubled in Felucca.
