Watch carefully for movement patterns between day and night cycles since low visibility makes detection harder. Wolves become more dangerous when youre tired or carrying raw meat, and theyll definitely notice if youre injured or exhausted. Setting up near shelters during storms is a good idea, the reduced visibility works both ways

During normal conditions stay alert near coastal areas and frozen lakes, thats where packs tend to gather more frequently. If youre playing on higher difficulty settings remember that intimidation tactics wont work as well, and youll need to be extra careful with your movements

Tip: keeping track of pack locations and monitoring your own condition is crucial since wolves react differently to healthy versus weakened prey. Consider your equipment load carefully, being overburdened makes you an easier target especially during weather transitions when their behavior gets unpredictable
