Not gonna lie, as much as I like the Wolf-tier foods, the Hunted event is pretty annoying.

First (and so far only) time it happened to me was after making a short trip in to the Mountains for some Freeze Glands after defeating Moder. I figured I'd hide on a rock to see what's up, then hop down to kill some of them.

Turns out, there were far more Wolves than I anticipated, and I ended up having to chug a health pot.

I would very much consider using the Iron+ Atgeir for this event to simply AoE them down in waves, rather than one at a time. Although, out in the open in the Plains.. I can see it being an issue there. Best I can say to do is keep the Bonemass power available at all times while exploring.

Some events are more annoying than even remotely fun..
