Wolf (Far Harbor)

Wolves are creatures living on the Island in 2287.

Gameplay attributes
Post-War wolves are pack hunters just like their pre-War ancestors were. They are typically encountered in groups of 3 to 6 which are led by the most powerful variant appropriate to the player's level. However, at higher levels wolf packs can consist entirely of top-tier variants like vicious wolves.

Fast, agile and highly perceptive, wolves will often notice the player before they notice them. While one or two pack members draw their prey's attention with a frontal charge, the others usually circle around for attacks from behind. Being surrounded by a whole pack can quickly be lethal for low-level players and still poses a threat even to stronger ones.

Due to their lack of noteworthy resistances, wolves are fairly easy to kill, provided one manages to hit them. Automatic weapons of any kind are arguably the best choice in such a situation.

Considering their size, tactics and overall behavior, Far Harbor wolves are basically the Island's equivalent to the Commonwealth's mongrels, so any player's preferred method for dealing with mutated dogs will work just as fine for getting rid of mutated wolves.

Appearances
Wolves appear in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor.
