Thanks for your response!
I have the Fast Build III and did use the drone. Maybe my rotation is not right. I never really got the hang of this combat system (not anyone's fault but my own, I am bad at combat in general). I always try to be as defensive as possible, using Defend and Regroup as much as I can, because once you hit 0 Energy it's over. I can manage to get the Wolf to like 600, maybe 580 HP, but by then my Energy hits 0 in the next attack and boom I'm dead!
