Complete the Far Cry Primal Beast Master mission by taming the White Wolf and unlocking Tensay's skill tree. Learn about rewards and next steps.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Before leaving Tensay's cave, raid the sack for a rare item.
  2. 2
    Travel northwest from Tensay's cave to his marker, following a game trail to a campfire near a bear symbol for resupply. Avoid high-level predators and bears until your weapons are upgraded.
  3. 3
    At Tensay's marker, use your owl to locate a three-man Udam wolf hunting camp to the south. A waypoint (a marker on your map you've manually placed as a destination) will be generated, and the enemies tagged.
  4. 4
    Sneak through the undergrowth and use boulders for cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) to approach the camp.
  5. 5
    Kill the three Udam hunters. This action enables the crafting of bait, required to tame the White Wolf. The Tame Canines skill is learned and enabled without costing a skill point.
  6. 6
    Follow the blood trail south to the wolf's den.
  7. 7
    Approach the White Wolf at the base of the cliff (about 30 feet away) without attracting its attention.
  8. 8
    Toss bait near the White Wolf. As it eats, move in close and interact to tame it.
  9. 9
    A new waypoint marks two Udam hunters to the south of the den.
  10. 10
    Before leaving the den area, take the wolf skin from the carcass outside and dislodge stones inside to find a loot bag with valuable crafting hides.
  11. 11
    Use your owl to tag the Udam hunters to the south.
  12. 12
    Work your way south and direct your White Wolf to attack the nearest Udam, then the one near the shallow stream.
  13. 13
    Fast travel to the village using your map.
  14. 14
    Speak to Tensay and build his sacred hut if you have the necessary resources.
  15. 15
    Speak to Sayla, who is nearby, and build her hut if you have the resources.
  16. 16
    After Sayla's hut is built, speak to her inside the cave to receive a club and an ear from a dead Udam. Time will transition to day.
  17. 17
    Speak to Sayla again.
Tips
  • Be cautious of Udam hunters and wildlife, especially bears and high-level predators, until your weapons are upgraded.
  • Use the minimap (the small map in the corner of your HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap)) to navigate and locate objectives.
  • The owl can be used to scout ahead and tag enemies, revealing them on your radar (your minimap with nearby blips and threats marked).
  • Use scattered undergrowth and boulders for cover when approaching enemy camps.
  • After taming the White Wolf, use its carcass outside the den to collect a wolf skin and dislodge stones inside to find a loot bag with valuable hides.
  • If needed, use meat to heal your beast companion. Its health status is shown on its circular icon on the HUD.
  • Having a beast companion discourages lesser predators, making travel safer. However, it can make taming other animals more difficult as it may engage them.
  • Consider the Sprint Heal skill, which allows you to heal while sprinting, for survival.
  • Upon completing the mission, you will likely have two skill points. It is recommended to invest one in Owl: Attack 1 in the shaman's skill tree and another in Tame Wildcats for a future mission. Each skill costs one skill point.
  • Upgrade any gear you have the resources for.
  • If you cannot build Sayla's hut immediately, hunt for the needed resources. Building her hut activates her next mission, expands her gathering skills, and places items in your stash.
  • Saving a skill point until you earn another allows you to acquire Extra Health 2 after upgrading Takkar's Cave, which can be done after the mission Attack of the Udam.
  • Upgrading Tensay's sacred hut unlocks his skill tree, allowing upgrades to the owl and beast taming skills. His next hut upgrade requires a village population of forty.
