What are tips for dire bear? Tips and strategies for dire bear in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I was in the red woods with my raptor and this agros on me. It was level 267
When I say me and my raptor died I mean it!!
You should just take one. They can kill anything in like, 4 or 2 hits, my direbear kills everything with just a couple of taps, I’d recommend trying to tame one!
For knockout most of the time unless your are taming a low level you MUST use darts the arrows will practically 80-90% die so you must use darts. Also when looking for one you should look either at cold places or in redwood forests. Cold areas have some but redwood forests will have so so many with plenty their you can find the perfect level that you want to tame and that you can handle.
wait after shooting them with arrows
Build a dino gate and then place stone fence foundations in the shape of a box in front of that and place door frames on those,and now you have made a trap! (:
Bear traps dont work on them but large ones do, be careful though as large bear traps dont hold them for very long.
These guys are great, They don’t Argo unless you get too close and they are easy to tame, just get on a rock and use tranq arrow or darts
When breading keep at least 2k berries and meat
Their a medium speed and do 46 to a lvl 135 argy so pump health MF
If you use bear traps, bring a bunch and line them up so each time it breaks out of the trap, a new one one be ready to catch it. Bring at least 15 if you are going to try to tame a high level one.
The bear changed the game for me. Easiest thing there is to breed since they're an omnivore, so they eat berries, just be aware that they eat meat first if you're breeding anything else close by.
My bear has solo'd lvl 60 alpha Rex while only losing 10% health. Sounds unreal, but they can also solo alpha death worms.
Fighting them head on could prove unBEARable for lower or even mid level mounts.
This bear is better (bearer) in groups of 6 or more for PVP
It takes about 20 tranq darts with a journeyman rifle on a 150. It has over 900 weight and I'm inlove.
When knocking out bring a dodo or two if you don’t have the best equipment so that when the bear gets very bloody (which will happen with prim equipment) feed it a dodo to get back up it’s health
1.Find a rock that the dire bear can’t reach you from and bring to following:A few narcotics,Tranq arrows or darts and a lot of prime
2. Bring your mount so they can clear out dangers while you tame and carry the prime meat
3.Knock out the bear from the rock (I recommend using darts because it doesn’t have much health)
4.Put the prime meat in the bears inventory and use the narcotics when the topor is low and bam! A fluffy teddy bear
