Prepare Your Base Before a Werewolf Encounter
Defensive Setup
Werewolves are aggressive hunters with advanced anti-kite AI, meaning they won't give up chase easily and will pursue you relentlessly. Before engaging, fortify your position:
- Build or find a structure with multiple rooms and doorways to break line of sight
- Stock healing items and food in accessible chests
- Clear a wide area around your base to prevent surprise attacks from the darkness
- Consider building elevated platforms—werewolves may struggle with vertical terrain
Combat Readiness
Both Moonborn and Midnight variants use six basic attacks, three leap abilities, and a devastating uppercut skill. Their enraged state makes them unpredictable and more dangerous, so:
- Gather strong armor and weapons before venturing out at night
- Keep a bow and arrows for ranged damage when they leap
- Have healing potions ready—their attacks hit hard
- Avoid open fields where their leap attacks have maximum effectiveness
- Watch for animation cues before their uppercut to time dodges or blocks
The custom sounds will alert you to their presence, giving you precious seconds to prepare.
