How to kill a Wolf Spider in Grounded

Killing a Wolf Spider is tricky and requires a near flawless fight. They have an incredibly powerful pounce attack which will almost kill you in one hit, and when they hit you they will poison you, draining more of your health over time. A successful pounce and poison is all it will probably take to kill you.

Unblocked attacks are very strong as well, draining over half of your health, and blocked attacks will drain around a fifth as well as poison you.

The good news is that all of the attacks can be parried, and a successful parry will negate all of the damage and poison. Again, the spider's animation-tells are obvious: either leaning backwards before a lunge forwards, or crouching down with the front legs in the air before a pounce. Parry the lunge, parry the pounce.

Do not be lured into a false sense of security by the distance between you and the Wolf Spider because they have an incredible reach. They will hit you when you think it impossible so keep your guard up.

Wolf Spiders attack quickly giving you time for only one strike in return before you need to block again. Chances are, you will need to apply a Fiber Bandage or two while you fight to patch up block and poison damage (if you're taking unblocked damage, you're probably dead). Apply bandages either after a successful block or while the spider is Stunned. Make sure you have two or three handy before the fight begins.

It takes around five hits of an Ant Club to stun the Wolf Spider, and it takes around 19 or 20 hits to kill it.

Congratulations, you have now killed a Wolf Spider!
