Found throughout the ARKs, the R-Direwolf is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Variant group.
With 105% base Melee Damage, the R-Direwolf has solid damage output. Starting at 320 Health, it's decently sturdy. Stamina sits at 260 base, providing average stamina. It carries 170 base Weight - modest carrying capacity.
Taming the R-Direwolf requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. Feed it Superior Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the R-Direwolf is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 6 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.58 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
