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

BEAR trap does not work on him

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

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.

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

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

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

Get on a rock or die

These guys can run up to really fast speeds when agro. When tamed they are AMAZING berrie and fibre collectors. Really powerful, a low level bear could easily take on a low level Rex.

Great for getting bio toxin from the red topped mushrooms with red bottoms in the abb section on val

Hey hey booboo, I got me a picnic basket - if you know this everyone loves you

To reduce chance of killing it while trying to knock it out is by shooting with a primitive crossbow without delay until it starts to show blood then switch to a regular bow and then space shots 7 seconds apart - works every time for me no matter the level

Abberation tip
1: lure in trap
2:using tranq ARROWS spam it till bloody
3: let it kill you
4: if it doesnt kill you then kys and drag body infront of it in the trap
5:collect honey and place in hotbar
6: drop honey infront of bear and it will attack/bite the honey and consume the body
7: go back to shooting till knocked out or if bloody repeat previous steps
8:honey can also be used as a lure instead of grabbing aggro
9: pull multiple bears into pen as they cannot hurt each other

Tame a medium lvl and pump it into movement speed a LOT. I did it and now I can outrun griffin's flying at my full speed

A high level can easily take down Alpha Carno's. It's perfect for taming other animals since it can collect both berries and prime meat. It can go through the central cave and is a highly speedy mount with good carry weight. It's also cuddly.

When running from one don't run in a straight line they get faster the longer they run so try to go through a heavily wooded area since it will hit the trees and it will its speed will reset

Consider them as if they are a real life bear...

Riding them gives you hypothermic and hyperthermic insulation. Like an otter.

Imprinted to rider they’re great for poly on abb.

Really fast and has proven to match a Rex so in my opinion the deadliest land mount besides the giga
