Wolves and boars have joined the fray as well. Wolves are slightly less aggressive than raptors in that they will only attack if startled. If they do strike, you better watch out. Savvy players can entice the pups with meat to have them join your pack, or you can hunt them down to use their bones as crafting Primal versions of your basic weapons. Boars are shy and will either flee when disturbed or try to gore players. You can placate them by tossing vegetables for them to snack on.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Instead of running or fighting, how would you like to tame these predators instead? Craft the Hunter\u2019s Cloak using materials gathered from hunting the newly added chickens and frogs which emits a scent that lulls any predator to your cause.
