[edit] Usage
Dire Wolves are a clear replacement for the Spirit Wolves, with increased damage and ability to consume dead bodies for even more power.
At Level 1, the Druid receives one Dire Wolf, which has 114 Health, and inflicts 8-14 points of damage with each bite. While you can only have three of them, as you get to later Acts and Difficulty levels they will survive for much longer. Some players find Dire Wolves to be remarkably effective when paired with a conspiracy of Ravens and an Oak Sage.
Other players prefer having three Dire Wolves instead of one Grizzly Bear, but the bear can be very powerful in its own right, if synergy bonuses are taken into account.
[edit] History
This blessing from Nature imparts to the Druid the ability to summon several great wolves. Though the wolf is already fierce in combat, its savagery becomes greatly inflamed as it consumes the corpses of fallen foes.
