To spinecrush a wolf, you have to jump behind them and attack before they get a chance to turn around. Sneaking up normally is almost impossible.champrjk wrote:eh tell me about it. I've only been able to sneak up to behind the wolves twice because they usually smell me before i make it. thats why i stick to brawling instead of stealth on wolves. Has anyone done a sucsessful spinecrusher on a wolf? If so what happend?

Yes.champrjk wrote:And does a spinecrush kill them instantly?
It's a genuine One-Hit-Kill, even against the alpha wolf. Spinecrushes are fast, reliable, professional. On an independant poll, 75% dead wolves admitted they were spinecrushed.
The by-the-book, fresh-out-of-Lugaru-school spinecrush:
Jump against the wind, so as to land right behind the wolf, if possible having the "forward" key pressed during the last part to fly faster.
Most of the time, when I do that, I just punch him. It seems random, especially on the desert challenge with the wolf overseeing the two rabbits on the stone.
I'll land behind him. 1/10 times I'll spinecrush, the other times, I just punch. All the time, he knows I'm there (does the little growl) but he's never turned around or even started moving when I hit attack.

Make sure you hold forward.Vib Rib wrote:Most of the time, when I do that, I just punch him. It seems random, especially on the desert challenge with the wolf overseeing the two rabbits on the stone.

I use spinecrushes all the time and I'm pretty sure there's no random factor involved. This particular wolf is hard 'cause you can't jump against the wind, and you mustn't be spotted by bunnies as you fly (they can shriek and warn him).Vib Rib wrote:Most of the time, when I do that, I just punch him.

You can nail him by crouch+jumping immediatly from where you start the level, and air-control to land *right* behind him while holding forward.
The wind is blowing from you towards the forest when your start that level, so it's way easier if you approach from the other side.champrjk wrote:oo thanks for the tips. I'll try them out. I'm stuck on challange 14 and i tell you its hard. I can beat two wolves usually but i end up dying on the third one. I'll try this new spinecrusher techneque. Thanks.
I've tried it out and it works wonderfully. I spincrushed a wolf and then by some stupid goof up i got the other to to come after me at once. (Real fun having a brawl with two wolves). Anyway i'm sure I will be able to beat this level with ease now once i get the hang of the spinecrusher move. Thank you all for your help.
