Where do you find the lycan? The map is so convoluted now, I literally can't find it. Everything seems like it leads to a dead end lol.
So far seems fairly obnoxious to get to for the quest. Unsure if there are other ways to encounter it, but once accepting the quest in the tavern, go to the exit thats in front of the materials shop. Once there go for the first exit on the left of the split, this is an arena fight so use bad ammo preferably. Once finished go into the exit nearest to the end of the zipline. From here you go to the end of the path and take the right path rather than going back to the hub unless you need to. From here you probably wanna loot the houses and then take the only exit to the left from the entrance. From here you'll be in yet another arena.. so more ammo obviously. Finally take the exit straight from the entrance, and after a few straight paths towards the quest marker, youll get ANOTHER arena fight but you'll find it there. Mileage may vary on pathing.
The annoying part is you have 2 forced arena fights so you need at minimum 120-160 ammo assuming mid-level and fairly accurate. So actually beating the lycan once you finish the 2 arenas before its own arena assumes you haven't already spent all your resources. Highly recommend high ammo cap, rationing your max level ammo from random drops, ideally having syringe buffs and the crafting ammo without bench skill can be a help too. Also it starts dormant until you shoot it a bit unless mine was bugged lol (it will start aggroed mine was in fact, bugged.)
Wish there were checkpoints to skip some of the trek there, or even better having the 3 different exits in the hub be vastly different in difficulty. Either way the early progression in this update is not bad once you've gotten passed the knowledge checks. (knowing to stat loot drop +5% immediately, getting weight cap up etc..) just wish the late game didn't take a long time to get to when you're ready for it.
edit: found faster path
