They are strong and fast I love um

Ideal gathering animal as it gathers berries, meat, hide, wood, and fiber in large quantities. It can attack while running and its attack and speed are very high.

My dire Bear is level 189 and is so powerful it easily killed an alpha Rex level 78 Amazing for base defence

If you live in the north they are great tames to travel with.if you have a high lvl beqr it can kill anything up in the north accept alpha rex

My tip? Down a Direbear. Tame the Direbear. Love your Direbear. Must have,all round excellent creature!

Imagine if purlovias can't dismount you while riding these guys..absolutely menace.

It’s very very powerful, i am in a casual easy, since I have started the game about a month ago, and I found a lvl 27 880 health, and creatures in this server RARELY pass level 30 in the wild, after I tamed it by starving it for 600 food( it had 3300 food ) I feed it prime meat, that I got from paraceratherium with my argy. After tame it became lvl 40 1040 health, an absolute monster, with 8k weight, I just 1 taped a 221 health gilli WOW! Just WOW!!!

Can be used as a parachute. If you ride it off a cliff, dismount mid air - enjoy a safe landing. I guess it should work with any other tame, where dismounting leaves you standing on the saddle

By far most versatile Dino in the game. Best metal gathered you can get if you don't have a quetz. My dire bear has over 3k metal and it's quick to get back to my base

One of the easiest passive tames besides the giga! :)

Dire bear don't care

If you are looking for new ways to take on Death Worms or Alpha Death Worms in scorched earth, two perfect Direbear tames are beast against them. Just level up health and melee.

Bear traps won’t work so build like a stone trap from it

You can not tame bears living in caves!!!

Amazing starting tame. Start in center redwoods, get some metal going, maybe a pt. Build maybe 3 grapples, a crossy, and make a pit-fall trap. I’ve done a 2 stone foundation with stone gateways and 4 Ramos. LISTEN! When you ko a bear, you could / should use HLNA or a magnifying glass. Shoot the bear about 12 (8 to be safe) and feed yourself and make sure it eats your body every time. You don’t need to waste hours on a longneck with like 45 tranqs. You only need about 70~(if you miss or arks stupid registration) for one.

Idk why everyone says tranq arrows kill it, I used tranq darts on a lvl 27 and I knocked it with 163 remaining health

this, this os a great fighter for early

i have tamed one lvl 16 and now she's lvl 35,

hes can run fast

great claw

can Harvest prime, fiber

great weight

also little tanky

y'all should get one

Even though it has 3.7 stars for berries, which is below a stego, a stego is a much better berry farmer. Stegos can get up to 75 berries per a bush (2x), while bears can only get 50-60 (2x). Still a good berry gatherer but a better Rex substitute than a berry farmer.

Look out for the Direbears, they’re like regular bears... but dire

Use a tapejara or pteranadon or quetz to put it in a 4x4 stone cage with normal stone doorframes as walls. Make sure it's two walls high.
