Caves

Caves are a new randomly generated environment added to the Longvinter island! Along with Caves we are introducing Mining and Smelting! New ores that players can gather and smelt into ingots to craft items and new placeables. Mines also contain new facilities where a player needs to complete a challenge in order to gain access to the best loot in the game!

Wolves

Wolfs can now be found on the map and killed for valuables. You also need to collect wolf items to complete the hunting compendium.

Mount Up with Wolf Mounts

Wolfs can now also be mounted and used to travel faster across the island! To obtain a wolf you have get a collar first. This can be obtained by doing the compendium tasks eg. fishing, farming and hunting. The chance of dropping one is really small but when you get one, you can exchange it to the mount with each of the compendium vendors. Once you have equipped the wolf, you cannot lose it to death.
