AI Analysis

Overview

A Travel-oriented Pal, available from early on. Combat power: Average, base work: below average.

Its Partner Skill, Direhowl Rider, lets you ride it across the ground. It can be ridden from early on, making travel easier than going on foot. Movement speed while riding is somewhat fast.

Ride it mainly as a mount for getting around. It shines more in your party than parked at the base. Available from early on, so securing it early makes your early game much easier.

Low Upkeep

Strengths

Appears in the wild from Lv6, so you can secure it early on
Food 2 is in the lightest bracket (2 or less), so it barely adds to feed costs at the base

Cautions

Work suitability tops out at Lv1, so you'll want to swap in a better Pal at the base
Defense 75 is in the bottom 25% bracket (80 or less), leaving it vulnerable to hits

Recommended passives

Combat

Legend Musclehead Ferocious Celestial Emperor

To build Direhowl for combat, prioritize damage passives such as Legend and Musclehead. Adding Celestial Emperor on top is recommended to further boost the Neutral moves it can use at matching element.

Base

Artisan Serious Work Slave Workaholic

To build Direhowl for base work, stacking work passives led by Artisan is recommended. Add Workaholic as well to slow its SAN drain.

Also worth adding

Insomnia

Direhowl isn't nocturnal, so it sleeps at night and work stops. If you want it running around the clock, Insomnia is worth a slot.

Travel

Swift Runner Legend Nimble

To build Direhowl as a mount, stacking movement passives led by Swift is recommended. Fit all 4 movement-speed passives to make it the fastest Direhowl possible.
