What are tips for dire bear? Tips and strategies for dire bear in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Bears are perhaps the best bodyguards for protecting in-progress tames without needing to stick around and babysit the whole process. Their main advantage for this role (compared to other powerful tames) is that almost EVERYTHING aggros them, even the measly dilophosaur.
Station a few bears in strategic locations around your KO, then sit back and relax knowing that any predators that come by will attack - and promptly get demolished by - your bear brigade.
One stone foundation and four stone door frames one ramp thank me later
These things do NOT mess around. I’ve been killed with one or two swipes by a level 26, and I’m level 97 (I was wearing cloth armor, though). Then the dang bear murdered my newly tamed lavender Megatherium because I had put my tames on Passive before I tried to tame the Direbear. RIP Blossom T^T
Tamed a couple max levels, breed them, leveled, bred some more, leveled more, mass breed for mutations, then got a 10/10 mutations 20 on melee and 20 on health for boss fights, named the original yogi, he slaughtered everything, then got killed instantly by the alpha ice Titan on fjordur
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.
Guys you better tame it cuz it will make you become a pro bc it’s good for grinding herbs and meat bc I have one called hany he’s lvl 223 bc the owner of the server helped me to tame him so 1 like=1 love for hany :)

How to tame on of these :
I recommend using a trap since they run pretty fast and possibly into something dangerous. So let's go!
Step 1: Bring around 100 TranqArrows. Should be enough, depending on the level and your aim :'). Also make sure to bring something to keep him sleeping, depending on your settings.
Step 2: The trap. The basic 4 stone foundations, 8 doorframes and 2 stairs. You build 2x2 fountains and put all doorframes on it. Then build the stairs so you can walk on it.
Step 3 : Find a Freddy Fazbear you like to tame.
Step 4: Build the trap near your bear.
Step 5: Shoot the bear and lure him into the trap.
Step 6: Shoot it SLOWLY. It hasn't got much health and TranqArrows do 'a lot of damage'. Wait like a minute for each shoot when it starts bleeding.
Step 7: Feed it when it's knocked out. It eats kibble, meat, honey and berries.
Step 8: Have fun with your tame :)

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
When it say 100% chance of death with your fist it means death for you not it
Agro the bear then place a bear trap A BIG ONE. Then trap it with metal bill boards and start using tranq darts to knock it out
