Important when starting out: Equip EVERY piece of armor you come across, even if it's -8 enchanted. Only take it off when you find something better. Simply wearing ANY armor greatly increases your chances of survival.
YES this is good advice, always wear every piece of armor you find.
When you get to the wolf level especially, make sure you have arm and leg protection. I think since their attack is "accurate", they have a higher chance of severing limbs (including heads apparently... I haven't been beheaded by one of those before)
