Pit Wolf

The Pit Wolf can be a challenging enemy as they are usually found near other enemy NPC's such as bandits. When exploring several caves you will encounter these creatures by themselves, or in packs of 2 to 4. Upon death, they drop an Wolf Pelt which can be crafted into one Leather by using a tanning rack. Their soul level is Lesser.

There is a known glitch that occurs while fighting these creatures while Lydia is following you. If you hasten a retreat or leave the area of encounter she can become so fixated on the wolves that she will not follow you.
