Wolves at the Door

Wolves at the Door is a unique Mission triggered by the Town Event "Brigand Incursion." It tasks the player with stopping a group of brigands from destroying the Hamlet by killing the brigand leader Vvulf.

Finding the Event
Wolves at the Door is a rare town event and has a few conditions must be met before it will appear;
 * It will not occur before Week 20.
 * You must have at least 4 LV5 heroes.
 * The base chance is about 12% (if there is a town event) and will increase by 4% every time a town event takes place, excluding this one.
 * The event will not appear again for at least 2 weeks after it appears

Be warned that if you skip Wolves at the Door that Vvulf will destroy two of your building upgrades. If you fail the quest you do not lose town upgrades, but the quest is treated like that of the Darkest Dungeon, thus abandoning the quest will randomly kill one of your heroes.

The Mission
Like the Darkest Dungeon quests, Wolves at the Door has a static map and the mission will always be the same. Also, bring all the shovels available.

There are seven rooms in this mission. When you begin you are given a choice to go up/left or up/right. Either room you pick you will get a choice of going to the side or continuing up. If you go up, you will find Vvulf, while the side paths lead to treasure. There is a treasure room in the centre too, only accessible through the boss room. Its very likely to find ancestral trinkets in said treasure locations, what makes this errand pretty worth it. The map will, just like in the darkest dungeon itself, reveal its shape continuosly. No scouting will be possible.

Tactics
A way to get pass it is that to use a team of "dummies" (all lv 0 or 1 heroes) to do the quest and immediately fail it. In that way you can avoid losing a lv5 or 6 champion and keep your building upgrades. You may need to do that for 2 weeks, make sure the wolves are gone or you will lose your building upgrades.

In battle:

Try to get as much virtue as possible, as the stress caused by enemies is enormous.

Wolves (and other monsters) have very high dodge chance. Try to equip gear with accuracy.

This is probably the second hardest dungeon (except the final one) in game, only go in with full skill, weapon and armor level.

The Occultist's Weakening Curse is very useful as it significantly drops the damage from Vvulf's "Time's Up" ability which, unmodified can do upwards of 40 damage

Enemies
Unlike other areas of the game, the town event has a unique listing of creatures and will only have these enemies during the mission. Additionally there are enemies from several variants, so you will run into both Brigand Cutthroats and Brigand Outlaws together (the apprentice and veteran variants respectively).

Here is the list of the enemies that appear in "Wolves at the Door;"
