how much help is a wolf?

how much hp damage can you expect from a wolf? If I lvl it up to the same lvl as me, will it do about the same amount of damage? any info would be appreciated, thanks.

My wolf is a godsend at times ^^ a curse at others. and me and my wolf are the same lvl (40) and he does more damage than me. He's very helpful.

Yeah, just be careful when hunting in an aggro area, cause he can get teamed up on easily.

Transport recovery kits help out a LOT for wolves. I always carry some x-large recovery kits and put it in my quick slot. If my wolf runs into trouble, I can hit 0 to heal him until the kits run out and I have to buy more. It's saved him numerous times. I just wish I realized they work for wolves earlier then I wouldn't have spent maybe half a million on grass of life all the times I had to res my wolf.

OT: Quick poll: Would you say Keiko is a girl's name or boy's name? My wolf is Keiko.

The wolf gets automatically unsummoned when you put on a cape. I don't think you can summon it again until you take the cape off.

So, no

I suppose you could have 2 wolves WVW each other. Each player command his/her wolf to attack the other wolf. Then again, one of you will be tagged murderer when the wolf dies.

they should let you use them for pvp. would help out for a blader.

does it actually go down or do you just gain it at a slower rate?

It is definitely helpful to hasten your grinding time.

It's a girl's name. I've noticed in anime that a lot of chix have a name with suffix -ko.
