instead of wolvers barking during live battle, which does nothing by the way. give them this ablitiy called roar which does a small pushback around their bodies plus status effect base on what status theme the wolver is. the pushback would send the player only 1.5 spaces away.
alpha wolvers gets a different sort of roar where they can roar in a specific area like a zomby breath. the diference between the alpha wolver's roar and the zombie breath is that the roar last only a 1 second and it does pushback plus status effect. the alpha wolver will also be able to do the roar normal wolvers can do.
*related to wolvers, but not worlvers directly. i was thinking sense the silk wing is always seen with the wolvers, why not give it the ability called force evol where it can forcefully make a wolver transform or grow into an alpha wolver. this ability only has a 45% chance of working when it is activated. the ability only activated in the healing mist the silkwing creates after it dies.
another way we can do it, is for the wolver to have a small percent chance of turning into an alpha after receiving damage that brings it close to death. when the damaged wolver is close to death, it will have a 20% to 35% chance of becoming an alpha. well thats all i have.
The current bark comes without a warning, practically unavoidable. Wolves need to be harder but not impossible.
