(medium difficulty... not the hard one) I'm carrying back my first survivor and I can not get past these wolves. I came down the mountain and answered the phone at the collapsed shack at the edge of the river. I rested, warmed us both up, and topped off water/food, then started my trek towards the town. My first attempt, I kept going along the river directly towards the town. I was attacked within a minute of leaving the shack. I put the survivor down and defended myself as best I could. I only have my rifle and 13 shots, one red flare, and one blue flare. I can not get a bead on any of them and they slowly rip me apart. I restart from the shack/phone call. This time I take the other fork in the river towards Molly's house. The music starts and I immediately put the survivor down next to a cliff face, start a fire, and prepare for the attack. My second shot I got off was an extremely lucky shot and I killed one of the wolves. The other one ran off. Morale gauge was gone. Encounter over. I picked up the survivor and started walking again and within seconds, the music starts again. I put the survivor back down and a few seconds later, 2 new wolves, with a full morale gauge, appear and begin their attacks. This time, no lucky shots. I spend my remaining 11 shots and both flares, and they are still attacking. Even if I shot directly towards them, the gauge didn't move, except for 3 times out of 11 shots. I got killed again. The wolves were not effected by the fire or either of the flares. They attacked the survivor, who was directly beside the fire, and they attacked me, standing directly in front of the survivor. Even after I ran out of ammo I tried to grab a couple rocks and throw them and they did nothing as well. I'm really trying to enjoy this after such a long wait, but this is going to get old real fast. I enjoy a challenge but I can not manage 2 fights in such quick succession. IF I restart this whole episode I'll equip myself differently, but with what I have I don't see how I'm going to make it back to safety with this survivor.
