Ok Im honestly about to break my mouse this is too much.
Now I COMPLETELY understand peoples problems about to many freaking ADD's.
This is ridiculous Im a 47 TR with 1700 Power and 1k Crit and I need some incite on how to even get passed the 2nd wave of adds, its also does not help that there are so many "invisible" walls I hit when I try to dodge the huge AOE effects.
Honestly im at the point where Im just gonna wait till they fix the add problems before I try to do this again but ya any insight and Ill try it.

    I'm sorry, I'd like to help, but I'm not sure what a Rime Wolf is. Are you talking about the last boss in the Gray Wolf Den?

    If so, the key (at least in my experience) is to just straight DPS down the boss at the 2nd wave of adds. The leaping wolves are hard to catch, and at the 2nd wave, the boss is low enough that 2 decent DPSers/1 good one can end the boss before the party takes too much damage. At level 47, you should own it.

    If not, I'm lost - I don't know of too many wolves outside of there.

    I had some trouble with the Rime Wolf (Icespire) too. It was odd...I died three times in a row without having a chance, then I ran back and crushed him easily on the fourth go. I will give some advice but I am still a little new to the game so take it with a grain of salt...

    Make sure you have plenty of healing potions. I actually used a Tidespan potion to boost recovery. Be sure you have your campfire bonus too.

    Go to the room just before his lair. Edge up until you are within range for Cloud of Steel. Lure him away with Cloud of Steel and then dodge further back into the smaller room. I did this because I found it difficult to dodge in the main room and I wanted to restrict his mobility. The key is to focus on two things: survival and daily powers. He kept demolishing my bait-and-switch decoy but I used this for AP.

    Here is another stalling tactic you can use. If he has you beaten down really low and you are still looking at a long cooldown on the potion, hop into stealth and immediately rush over to your companion. Heal your companion from stealth and then run as far away as you can. Your companion should distract them long enough for you to get the cooldown on the potions and get back to the fight.

    Or you can just pair up with someone in the zone and do it as a party.

    My two cents...YMMV.

    if you're talking about icespire wolf boss you shouldnt have problems with it if you're tr atleast I didn't have O_O
    Stealth - lurkers near boss - flurry - flurry - bait and switch to extend stealth - some more hits - finish with Lashing blade.

    I just lure the boss out of the room, kill off the adds that follow, then proceed to kill the boss. Its simply enough.

    I used Dazing Strike/Wicked Reminder/Impossible to Catch for encounters, then sly/duelist for at-wills.
