Hati

Hati is a wolf first mentioned in the 2010 Christmas event. Brundt the Chieftain and Olaf the Bard say that the "great wolf" has been rampaging through Rellekka. Olaf says that the wolf killed one of his family members.

In the January 2011 Behind the Scenes, Jagex stated that, "The fight itself is designed for a group of mid- to high-level adventurers." This group of players will have to fight Hati in the Rellekka area. If successful, they may receive a pair of gloves which, when worn, doubles combat experience in attack, strength, defence, ranged and magic for ten hours. (This bonus was changed on release and was not time based but level and xp based. See below.) In addition, players may also receive a wolf hat for cosmetic purposes only. Players do not gain experience for fighting Hati, only the opportunity to receive her drops.

The Hati will remain in the game until 14 February as "seasonal content." As with holiday events, the wolf will be removed after that date, but the reward items will remain. On May 10th, the charges will be lost. To begin hunting Hati, talk to the Fremennik citizen just inside Rellekka's gate (not required). The player can receive a free teleport to Relleka from the Wolf hunter in Gunnarsgrunn. Hati has a combat level of 654. Hati has 3 respawn points, and will respawn at one every few minutes. The spawns are just northwest of the Swaying Tree, just southeast of Rellekka and slightly off of the path, and next to the mine where mithril or iron can be mined, just east of the city walls.

Hati is aggressive, and will attack with magic from afar, making him easier to find when hunting.

Strategy
Hati has a melee attack and a magic attack. The magic attack is a multi-target attack, although this only hits other players if they are near the target player. Rumours persist that the magic based attack freezes the player or lowers the players stats, although these are false. The wolf's max hit is 300 with melee and lower with magic, therefore using Protect from Melee is recommended. Occasionally, you will receive a message saying: "You are chilled to the bone from the cold that radiates from Hati" and take some damage. Hati does take damage from Curses.

According to the Fremennik citizen, Hati is as vulnerable to "blade, arrow or spell" as any other wolf (i.e. it has the same weaknesses as a normal Wolf). However, the citizen also mentions that Hati has a much higher endurance than the average wolf and should not be taken lightly. Attacking with range or mage will only cause you to be attacked with magic, so in this case protect from magic is recommended. Note that the magic attacks will only partially be absorbed by the protect spell - a small amount of damage will still be taken. Using ruby bolts (e) you can only hit 500 despite the expected 4000.

Currently, due to the massive number of players killing Hati, there is little need to bring food. This will likely change as the number of players attempting to gain the seasonal rewards drops off. If Hati wanders or pursues a player into Rellekka, players should be aware that this is a single combat area and only one person will be able to fight Hati at a time. This can be dangerous for players who are not equipped for a long solo fight where the monster attacks with melee and magic. For this reason it is advisable to bring food, prayer potions and a super or extreme set, even if you encounter Hati elsewhere and do not end up using them.

Once Hati dies, anyone who participated in the fight may receive the Hati head and paws. Only one Hati head and set of paws can be obtained per player. Both items may be stored in the toy box of a player-owned house.

Confusion over Paws' Bonus
When originally announced in Behind the Scenes, Jagex said these gloves would provide 10 hours of bonus, but upon release Jagex announced, "There is a limit to the additional experience you can gain from these gloves, but that limit is determined by your levels in those combat skills." There appears to be a certain amount of experience available which increases more the higher your level is.

According to calculations, with level 48 combat, you lose 1% every 1320 kills or killing 15 guards. In this situation, the gloves would provide 132,000 XP.

 * According to Mod Moltare, the drop rate for the hat and gloves is 80%.
 * If you die when wearing the gloves and hood, they will not show up in your gravestone like a lot of holiday items. Although, instead of retrieving the item from Diango in Draynor, you can get a replacement pair from the Fremennik Citizen outside of the Fremennik Gates.
 * The citizen mentions that Hati's brother Sköll will eventually eat the sun but until then they will rage on through the Winter and Summer seasons. This may be a hint as to if another giant wolf will be fought in the summer.
 * You do not gain any experience from fighting Hati, this makes it impractical to train on.
 * There is a glitch when Hati is killed, the items dropped by the wolf would drop on top of a tree. They can still be picked up, though.
