Just take one, good for everything, travel, power, gathering... It can do all that

My base was distroyed from an alpha rex. I got a high level bear and the next time someone brought an alpha rex to my base, it killed it. Stronger than a rex and more maneuverable.

They are omnivores witch is very unique they'll eat either Berry's or meat making them easier tames and easier upkeep

Use them in caves they can do around 300damage once imprinted and are pretty fast at max running. They can basically take anything in the redwoods.

The dire bear is an excellent tame for Fjordur. If you spawn in Vardiland (bottom left island) you can find plenty of honey for taming. Also riding the bear will keep you warm.

If you do t have rifle and darts take xbow and owl to heal the bear when knocking it out

Definitely the second best early game tame. Only second to stego

A HELPFUL TIP NEEDS A FEW MORE WORDS

They are the best tame for beginner servers they are stronger than monke (gigapitgecus) I have no idea if that is how you spell it

Nothing about this creature but i tame and knock out creatures that are around level 60+ but i do tame high levels! Its just hard to find them

Good for gathering fiber

If you're lazy like me and don't want to use tranq darts, you can use arrows but make sure to take a snow owl and heal it when it starts getting bloody otherwise you will kill it.

Bred ones are capable of killing ALPHA REXS, take advantage of their power, and harness it.

Great for collecting plant species X seeds in my opinion

I got me a level 150 and this is a beast these things kill any alpha no problem just pump healf an melee an you should be gucci

Whilst walking through the redwoods I saw a Thylacoleo went to hide in a shrub and... super surprise dire bear outa nowhere

How to tame

Note:I really recommend use soothing balm for a high level on if you were on mobile

step 1:get raw prime meat(of course you can use giant honeycomb)

step 2:find a rock trap(unless you wanna die)

step 3:shoot it with ur tranq dart(don’t use arrow,it usually kill it)

step 4:he fall sleep,tame it with ur raw prime meat(also works with crops cause it a bear,but raw prime meat and honey will do better)

step 5:now you got a high damage,and fast beast

It’s prob best to not take any chances and use darts, but if u do use arrows just make sure your blood overlays are set on in the options menu so when it’s getting too bloody u know u need to stop to give it time to heal. I’m sure it’s not full proof but it’s worked for me the few times I’ve tried it. Both in single player and in official server.

me and my friend used an argy trap and just knocked it out in there

High health high damage stupid high speed. Best mount in the game

Try using soothing balm thats a good trick
