How do I craft a Wolf Fur Cape to resist freezing temperatures?

The Wolf Fur Cape is an essential piece of gear in Valheim for surviving the freezing temperatures of the Mountain biome. Without it, you will quickly succumb to the Freezing debuff, which drains your health rapidly. Crafting the Wolf Fur Cape requires specific materials and progression through the game, so it’s important to prepare thoroughly before attempting to gather the necessary resources.\n\nTo craft the Wolf Fur Cape, you will need a Level 2 Workbench, 4 Wolf Pelts, 1 Silver, and 1 Wolf Trophy. Wolf Pelts are obtained by hunting Wolves in the Mountain biome, which are aggressive and dangerous creatures. Silver is a rare metal found in the Mountains, but you’ll need a Wishbone (dropped by Bonemass, the third boss) to locate it. The Wolf Trophy is a rare drop from Wolves, so you may need to hunt several to obtain one.\n\nBefore venturing into the Mountains, ensure you are well-prepared. Equip yourself with Frost Resistance Mead, which temporarily protects you from freezing. You can craft this mead at a Fermenter using 10 Honey, 5 Thistle, 2 Bloodbags, and 1 Greydwarf Eye. Additionally, bring a strong weapon, such as an Iron Mace or Draugr Fang bow, and wear armor like Iron or Wolf Armor to withstand Wolf attacks. A shield is also recommended to block their lunges.\n\nOnce in the Mountains, use the Wishbone to locate Silver deposits. The Wishbone will emit a green glow and ping faster as you get closer to Silver. Mine the Silver using an Iron Pickaxe or better. Be cautious of Drakes and Stone Golems, which are common threats in this biome. After gathering Silver, hunt Wolves for their pelts and trophies. Wolves are fast and deadly, so use terrain to your advantage, such as climbing rocks or trees to avoid their attacks.\n\nWith all materials gathered, return to your base and upgrade your Workbench to Level 2 if necessary. Place the Workbench near a roofed area to ensure it functions properly. Open the crafting menu and select the Wolf Fur Cape. Once crafted, equip it to gain permanent Frost Resistance, allowing you to explore the Mountains without relying on Frost Resistance Mead.\n\nA common challenge is the rarity of Wolf Trophies. If you’re struggling to obtain one, consider building a Wolf trap using wooden walls and gates. Lure Wolves into the trap and safely eliminate them. Another tip is to explore multiple Mountain biomes, as Wolves spawn more frequently in certain areas. Additionally, always carry healing items like Cooked Meat or Health Mead to recover from unexpected damage.\n\nIn summary, the Wolf Fur Cape is a game-changing item for surviving the Mountains. By gathering Wolf Pelts, Silver, and a Wolf Trophy, and crafting it at a Level 2 Workbench, you can permanently resist freezing temperatures. Prepare thoroughly, use Frost Resistance Mead as a temporary solution, and employ strategic hunting methods to secure the necessary materials. With the Wolf Fur Cape, you’ll be ready to conquer the Mountains and face even greater challenges in Valheim.
