More Direbear Taming & KO Tips
BEAR trap does not work on him
USE DARTS, arrows will usually kill it before it knocks out
Tip- the higher the level the better
I found a level 150 (max level on the server i play on)
I built a small trap so i could knock it out safely.
Used tranq arrows and a snow owl to heal them as i knocked them out
Only took 7 honey to tame them up with 100% effectiveness (the server is 3x so keep that in mind)
Trap i used- 4 stone foundations, 8 stone door frames, 6 stone fences, and two stone stairs
Hope this helped someone :)
These things are absolute beasts, they do insane damage, grind like a boss, and gain momentum while sprinting, to tame these, get a mount which allows rider weaponry and invest decent amount of health in it. Then let it aggro on you and start tranquilizing them ( rifle advised since x-bow may kill it ).
Its torpor run isn't that annoying so just knock it, feed it, then wreck the island's almost every bit( gigas and titans are exceptions ). Up if this helped.
Get on a rock or die
Hey hey booboo, I got me a picnic basket - if you know this everyone loves you
You wont be able to knockout a high level direbear 400+ using tranq arrows in a crossbow instead use longneck rifle with tranq darts but the darts are only craftable in level 62.
(for Mobile)
Only the large bear trap workd because he ate too much McDonald's
Yes it is a bear but the bear trap won’t work on him
