As it stands right now, the ability to tame wolves is a bit underwhelming.
1.) They are pretty rare. Meaning the Ranger has to either go way out of his/her way to utilize the skill and/or just get very lucky.
2.) They are very fragile. With around 100hp, they don't last very long at all. While their damage is decent, they take the term "glass cannon" to a whole new level. With cannon being an overstatement.
3.) And with them being fragile, all it takes is one stray arrow, and they're dead.
4.) They just seem very gimmicky and unneeded in their current implementation.
Suggestion:
Replace the passive "Ability to tame wolves" with a "Summon Wolf" skill. Make only 1 wolf able to be active at a time. Take away the ability to make them "sit". Make them a "member of your party" so they can't be accidentally killed by friendly fire.
