This is a bear. Why isn’t it able to be bear trapped?!

In the new update they can collect double the honey from beehives and the bees don't damage the bear. P's they're also getting a new model

These things are MONSTERS! They can tear through caves as long as they can fit. On mobile I took him to the hunter cave and DEMOLISHED everything. They are also pretty good and chitin gathering. Just one sweep through the cave I got 1000+ chitin.

Only large bear traps work I learnt that the hard way

BEAR trap does not work on him

Probably the most versatile land creature. Can eat berries and meat. Hard to tame unless you use DARTS or a SNOW OWL to heal it during tranq arrow-ing it with a x-bow.
Probably best to put HP>Dmg. These things are trucks but don't get to cocky.

USE DARTS, arrows will usually kill it before it knocks out

Hello people of ark I have a short Tip about the DireBear
This thing is a killer if tamed or not tamed
Breed this thing and u can use it in boss fights or in general pvp
A bear can beat a rex if bred good enough
U may want to get ur hands on one of these
Make a 4x2 taming pen with window frames 2 ramps then u lure the bear inside I recommend u use tranq darts arrows will kill it, but if u play prim+ u have no other choise
If u play primitive+ use arrows and when the bear is bloody and still attacking the walls drag a corpse of a Dino or player to it wait 5 seconds after it eats the corpse then shoot it with ur tranqs
If it’s unconscious u put mutton in its inventory since it tames better and same effect as kibble
After its tamed u can get fiber with it as well
Its also verry fast don’t put its lvls into speed only melee stam and hp
I hope u found this helpful if u did make sure to like it so more people notice it

Why is this not affected by bear trap?

After freshly taming 2 Rex’s with Bane (my Bary) and 3 favorite Dimo’s, I was on my way back to base and attacked one of these only around level 112 thinking I had plenty of backup with the Rex’s... Nope. Bane and I ran after everyone was destroyed around me... tamed him later from a cliff with my tranqs. He’s such a machine that I would do it all again. Named him Machine

Faster than a giga, strong as a rex, with some levels can get to 1k carry, can gather and eat both berries and meat,can even gather fiber, if you tame a high level one you have a super gathering and combat mount. Unmatched in utility.

Bears are so op on mobile bc you can keep hold of attack and get like 20k fiber after like 5 mins

Direbear have little health compared to torpor. Keep a few tamed dodos at your ramp trap. When you've shot the bear enough for it to be bloody, throw in a dodo. It will instantly kill and eat it and start regenerating health. Give it a moment or two and continue darting. Happy hunting!

This little guy killed my Rex, spino, and bary because they were all on passive. Tip: Don't leave your Dino's on passive in the redwoods.

Super easy to came just bring 10-20 prime meat (depends what level ur Dire is) the beast will get tamed up in less then 30 minutes. This beast gathers hide,fiber,berries,meat like it’s nothing. Hits like a mother trucker. Insane speed. Literally take this beats asap once you unlock its saddle.

Due to it's large aoe bite and low knock back it is ideal for hunting for leech blood in swamps

Best utility mount after theri can gather meat and berries also this guy can get 1k weight and almost 900 melee with enough lvls I know this because my bear ( name is teddy the bear) is stronger than my 209 Rex

You would have a better chance of living after getting hit by a freight train than getting bit by a dire bear.

With the tamed dire bear they can kill alphas (Carnos,raptors) my 123 lvl dire bear was able to kill an alpha raptor lvl 72. They make great companions and their babies are cute

Get on a rock or die
