Nocturnal predators of the frozen wastes

Wolves are fierce canine predators that hunt across the surface Snow biome during Hardmode nights. Running in packs across frozen drifts and pine trees, they sprint with high velocity and leap over snowbanks to flank explorers. They advance across the tundra with 300 health and 30 defense, seeking out prey in the darkness.

Surviving pack hunts and looting liliths necklace

A lunging Wolf deals 65 contact damage in Classic and 130 in Expert, easily overwhelming players who become stuck on slippery ice. Slaying these frozen hunters yields Lilith's Necklace at a 3.33% rate, a unique mount accessory that transforms the player into an agile wolf capable of swift sprinting and high jumps across open ground.

Trivia

  • Wolves spawn exclusively at night on the surface Snow biome in Hardmode.
  • Lilith's Necklace dropped by wolves provides a fast ground mount with enhanced vertical jumping.
