Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
Voltigores
Voltigores are large, quadrupedal animals that are very powerful. They have sharp points for feet that they use to gore their victims up close. From a distance, one will generate an electric field that travels towards its victim, severely crippling it.
It takes a lot of ammunition to take out a voltigore. Use weapons like the M-249 SAW and the RPG to maximize the damage you inflict on voltigores. Avoid the purple electric fields that they produce. Also realize that voltigores will almost always chase you down. Hiding behind a corner doesn't usually work. Baby voltigores are just like adult-size voltigores, only much easier to kill.
