Tips & Strategies
My lvl 80 Thylacoleo with 1800 health and 300% melee damage got attacked by a Direbear and my Thylacoleo got killed pretty fast. These guys are a killing machine. RIP My cat :(
These things are easy to tame it’s just the animals around it make it seem impossible
A must have on aberration,
Not only can he:
Gather 3x honey, gather fiber, berries, normal and prime meat, and wood/thatch.
But…
It has insane speed to help keep you safe from nameless, and (probably) OUTRUN A ROCKDRAKE. Get your first egg with a dire bear and have megalosaurus or spino bodyguards if you like.
For me these are impossible to tame without a trap
Bring a owl if you are taming the bear. You can heal it when it’s health are low
If you find your self in a fight with a dire bear be careful they are strong and faster than you unless you trained for the marathon then you will have to fight it
After freshly taming 2 Rex’s with Bane (my Bary) and 3 favorite Dimo’s, I was on my way back to base and attacked one of these only around level 112 thinking I had plenty of backup with the Rex’s... Nope. Bane and I ran after everyone was destroyed around me... tamed him later from a cliff with my tranqs. He’s such a machine that I would do it all again. Named him Machine
Consider them as if they are a real life bear...
Everyone shut up about the bear traps the large bear traps work
Do not use tranq arrows, they have low health so it has a high chance to kill them because tranq arrows do more damage, instead use tranq darts
Rescue Mount - Speed: (Gallimimus+Trike=DireBear)
- You’ve just been ripped off your saddle and your favorite tame is in trouble.. you need to get there NOW. Keep one of these hitched with spare gear.
- Their sprint is like a Locomotive Engine: Takes a sec to get going, but Holy F- do they move at top speed and has stamina for days. Roars in like a Semi-Truck to slap silly anything that dared threaten your fav tame.
- Find a Low-lvl and tame with Meat or Prime. Use it to get Honey, then tame your High-lvl.
You can tame a high lv without rock,I tried it,it works
I just…….died for 265 times
