  • Event: Blood Moon
  • Frequency: Every 4 hours
  • Duration: 20 minutes
  • Location: Cinder Cavern at coordinates (2037, 112, -391), you might need a vehicle for this location.
  • Spawn Timing: The Dire Wolf appears exactly 1 minute after the Blood Moon event begins.

Only one Dire Wolf spawns per server during each Blood Moon event. If someone defeats it before you get there, you’ll have to wait for the next cycle.

Dire Wolf Attack Pattern

The Dire Wolf uses two main attacks, both deadly if you’re not alert:

Flame Breath

  • A large red circle appears around the boss.
  • Shortly after, fire erupts in that area, dealing continuous high damage.
  • How to avoid: Move out of the circle the second it appears.

Ground Spikes

  • Random spikes shoot up from the ground throughout the arena.
  • Each spike deals around 25 damage.
  • How to avoid: Keep moving, don’t stand still.

Pro Tip: Don’t get greedy for damage. Prioritize dodging over attacking if both mechanics activate back-to-back.

Step-by-Step Strategy

  1. Enter the Arena: Approach the Dire Wolf and stand inside the glowing dig circle to start dealing damage.
  2. Keep Moving: Avoid standing in one spot. The Dire Wolf’s attacks are designed to punish immobile players.
  3. Time Your Dodges: The moment you see a red warning circle for fire breath, get out. For spike attacks, strafe in a wide circle to avoid random bursts.
  4. Bring Good Gear: Use shovels or perks that boost boss damage, such as the Fanged Shovel or anything with high Strength and Control stats.
  5. Solo or Group? You can solo the Dire Wolf with solid dodging, but fighting with friends helps distribute the damage and increases your chances of survival.

Master its attack patterns, show up early, and bring your best gear to earn rewards like the Fanged Shovel and Dire Wolf pet. If you can stay alive and deal top damage, the loot is absolutely worth the grind.
