I_eat_only_wolf_meat Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 So I've started dipping my toes into the Tales content as an interloper and it is just as the devs said: very difficult. I have no idea where any of the new content is (by preference), so I'm staggering around in the middle of the night with the shortwave in my hand, absolutely freezing to death because, well, it's late at night. To make matters worse, I have the shortwave in my hand rather than my bow, and so it's that much more difficult to fight the aurora wildlife. I've had more wolf struggles (three) in one in-game day than I've had in the previous two hundred. I've concluded that, at a minimum, all the wolves in a zone need to be terminated before I go stumbling around at night with a radio. Preferably with double bear coats. Anyway, thank you devs. I'll be freezing my butt off and bleeding to death, and loving every second of it. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can fight the cold with enough coal, teas and stuff, but you can't do anything if a aurora wolf oneshot you. The only way to have a 'safe' experience it's fully cleaning the region before the aurora night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWolf Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Still be careful at night, even if you've cleared all the wolves during the day. Sometimes there is a different wolf roaming around at night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranium Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Indeed, doing the Tales on Interloper is extremely difficult. It requires top-tier patience, planning, and awareness. Especially patience! I've been absolutely loving the experience. It has made so many of the regions fresh again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the aurora comes up at a time in the early morning when it's too cold, you just have to give up and wait for the next opportunity. You just can't be juggling a bow, torch, and radio while freezing to death and running from wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glacia Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Im using a setup to have "safer" aurora nights for the tale, and works in most regions. First of all: Always carry the ballistic vest and good protection clothing. Makes an inmense difference and saves you from otherwise deaths. The strategy consist on: Make a campfire with full duration in a shielded outdoor place near the part of the region you want to explore. Then have full scent and start exploring the region a bit to draw the attention of everything, killing the wolves in any place or leading them to the campfire for safer kills. This should be doed before the night, at the last hours of the day. Once the region it's clear, wait at the campfire or a safehouse for the aurora. Use teas before traveling and carry at least one heated tea with you; don't hesitate to make any count of quick campfires with a piece of coal to warm up sometimes. Another option i have tried and works very well, it's setup various full duration (shielded) campfires around the place you are gonna explore, and using them as stops for warming up, saving time and using them as landmarks for easy navegation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what you do or how carefull you are, it's very common to end on an accidental struggle due to the nature of aurora nights. The ballistic best paired with good protection clothing like the Moose coat and other high tier clothing, offers an unmatched protection %, enough to survive most wolf attacks without losing critical condition. I really like the fact that after a lot of time, finally the ballistic best have a solid use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
