Fortnite: Where to find wolves and how to tame them

As part of a recent Fortnite challenge, players are required to find and tame wolves — a mechanic that has been in the game for a long time. The thing is, finding wolves can be a bit inconsistent, making this quest a bit trickier than you’d expect. The other thing is that — once you find a wolf — taming them can also be a chore, so players are likely struggling to complete this quest.

In this guide, we’ll show you where to find wolves and how to tame them in Fortnite.

Where to find wolves

In general, you’ll have success finding wolves in non-snowy areas on the Fortnite map. Wolves tend to spawn in random locations, though, and — depending on what other players in the match do — can end up all over the map.

Your best bet is to land around hubs with grassy or wooded areas such as Shattered Slabs, Frenzy Fields, or Fault Splits. It’s best to land around the hubs, not directly in the middle of them.

Oftentimes, you’ll encounter wolves during natural play, so you should always keep your eyes peeled for them.

How to tame wolves

Once you find a wolf, you’ll need to tame it to complete the quest. To do so, all you need to do is jump directly on its back. You’ll then be able to ride it around like a vehicle. Unlike traditional cars and trucks, wolves are great because you don’t need to fill them up with gas. They also control a lot better than certain cars in the game.

Team up abilities in Marvel Rivals

Heroes are strongest when they work together. This is true in the comics and movies, but also in Marvel Rivals. Besides choosing your favorite character based on their role or what awesome skin you've bought with Lattice, you also need to pay attention to something called Team-Up Abilities. Just like those exciting moments on the page or screen, these special abilities let you combine the skills and abilities of two heroes to devastating effect. Because the roster is so huge and many Team-Up Abilities can be triggered with two or three heroes, it is easy to forget who synergizes with who and what their ability will even do. Let's refresh ourselves on all the Marvel Rivals Team-Up abilities and what they do.
All Marvel Rivals Team-Up Abilities and what they do

There are two main ways Team-Up Abilities work. Some are passive and will activate so long as the two corresponding characters are within range of one another, but sometimes it works as long as both are simply on the same team. The other type needs the "leader" character to activate them with a button prompt.

Practice against bots to learn your hero

Jumping into a Quick Match or other competitive game mode in Marvel Rivals as soon as you boot it up is just asking for trouble. Even playing the tutorial first will only give you a taste of how a few characters work, which is hardly sufficient for a game with such a big roster and so much complexity. Instead, start out by going into a Custom Game and filling a game with AI bots. You can set your bots to easy, normal, or hard so start out on easy first and work your way up since the hard level is actually quite a challenge.
