What color/type attacks do the animals use?

[VDZ]

Has anybody made any list of animal attacks yet? I'm having a hard time fighting the stronger animals (read: my chainmail shirt is 5 damage away from breaking and that shit's too expensive to waste) because I have no idea what blocks I should be putting up.

If there's no such list yet, I guess I'll start one here. This is what I know (feel free to correct, I know many attacks are multi-color but I don't know what colors):

Ants
Basic attack - Backhanded/Striking

Bats
Basic attack - Backhanded/Striking
IP attack - Sweeping

Foxes
Basic attack - Striking (also Backhanded?)
IP attack - Sweeping

Badgers
Basic attack - Striking
(Pretty sure they use other attacks too, but striking+sweeping should have you covered)

Mouflons
Basic attack - Backhanded/Striking?
??? - Backhanded
IP attack - Sweeping

Aurochs
Basic attack - Backhanded/Striking?
??? - Backhanded
IP attack - Sweeping

Boars
Basic attack - Striking
Tusk Romp - Oppressive - Activates when you attack the 'Tusk Romp' block
IP attack - I wish I knew, it's not Striking and doesn't seem to be Sweeping either

Deer
No clue.

Bear
Seems to be able to use Oppressive attacks?

Can`t actually answer, but i can kill everything except bear without taking damage at 40 UA. I have all blocks except red and just renew the ones that were broken. And i usually use multiple blocks of one color.

Upd. Most of animals have combined blue/green attack (basic attack can be blocked by both defenses ) and use yellow attack when they have IP. This includes aurochs and mouflons (cause i`m taming them). Bats have same green/blue basic attack and yellow with IP. Boar don`t deal red damage unless you hit his counter.

Ants seem to hit any defense you have up. Seems like a forgiving newb mechanic.

Added info about aurochs and mouflons. Thanks.

Does this mean boar uses blue attacks as well? I'm pretty sure it damaged me through green and yellow guards earlier, and I wasn't hitting the counter block (hell, it wasn't in response to an attack).

According to Sevenless's guide, yellow blocks do not prevent ant damage.

I also noticed the animals' IP attack has a very long cooldown - if you see them use it you can easily Quick Dodge and get a couple hits in before even worrying about another IP attack.

Probably just because they lack IP for one more such attack ? Anyway topic is usefull and i would wish it sticky.

I`ll be taming my boar soon and will test. But i can say with 90% that boar breaks both blue and green with basic attacks and yellow with IP attack.
I`m quite sure that animals have multiple-labeled attacks (like the Stealing Thunder or combat discovery) that hit multiple defenses at once, so it`s hard to determine exact type of attack. I haven`t seen any red attack so far (excluding tusk romp and bears, i`m too afraid of the last ones).

Update. Foxed have IP sweeping as well, i got KOed to it in my early days.

I have not seen any significant difference for any animal. They all seem to have blue/green combined basic attacks and can use yellow attacks when they get IP.
Not sure about bears.

+1 for this, i have same observation. Only defense moves vary.

You can observe the variation when you're fighting mouflon and aurochsen. They can choose to hit blue only and bypass green defenses.
