Werewolf Mythical Creature
Transforms on the in-game clock and the moon phase. Howl to rally your pack, and choose from five looks.
Werewolf
The Werewolf is one of the Mythical Creatures added in Update Version 3, alongside the Vampire.
What it does
- Transforms the player into a Werewolf automatically based on the in-game clock, rather than water like the Mermaid.
- Server admins configure a Werewolf-Nighttime-Transform and Werewolf-Daytime-Transform hour (0-23), so Werewolves can be set to transform at night (the classic werewolf theme), or on a custom schedule.
- Individual moon phases can be disabled from causing a transformation – by default, the New Moon.
- Swaps the player’s model over to a Werewolf while transformed, and restores their human model when the transformation ends.
- Grants a movement speed boost while transformed at night, which ends at dawn.
- Howls with
/mc werewolf howl: every werewolf nearby – you included – gets a timed regeneration buff, and anything hostile to you is slowed in place for a few seconds. On a cooldown that survives a relog. See Werewolf Howl. - Can be given an optional silver weakness by an admin: extra damage from an attacker holding an item on the server’s silver list. Off by default. See Silver Weakness.
- Like the other creatures, transformation zones can be whitelisted or blacklisted per world/instance by a server admin.
- Can be forced on for a player by a race lock, or a player can toggle whether they’re allowed to become a Werewolf at all.
Werewolf Looks
Pick your look in the Werewolf menu (/mc werewolf):
| Look: | Where it comes from: |
|---|---|
| Werewolf | Built in. Hytale’s own werewolf. |
| Arctic Werewolf | Built in, new in 4.0.0. A snow-white pelt, glacier-blue eyes and grey sealskin leathers. |
| Midnight Werewolf | Built in, new in 4.0.0. A black pelt with silver tips, amber eyes and oxblood leather. |
| Endgame Werewolf | Needs the Endgame & QoL mod. |
| Cult Werewolf | Needs the Major Dungeons mod. |
A look whose mod is not installed shows which mod it needs instead.
How to become a Werewolf
Pick Werewolf as your active form in the Mythical Creatures menu (/mc). After that, the Werewolf Transformation-Mode decides when you change:
- 0 (default) – transform at night, following the configured hours and moon phases.
- 1 – transform only with a Werewolf potion, or by carrying the Moon Charm, which draws on the moon’s power at night.
- 2 – transform at night, with potions and the Moon Charm switched off.
Small, Medium and Large Werewolf potions last 5 minutes, 15 minutes and 48 hours; see Potions. When a potion runs out, you change back.
Open the Werewolf menu at any time with /mc werewolf (or /mc ww), or through /mermaids werewolf.
