Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a direbear? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a direbear.
If you use normal tranquilizer arrows, the situation can get very... dire.
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 :)
So my sister is crazy about bears 🐻. So we brought a bear over from the other server. ( a female named giggles) she really wanted to breed it with a male. One day there was a 150 male stuck in the castle wall on the island in the middle of the redwoods on lost island. My sister saw it and went nuts. I had to tame the bear. So I walked up to the bear and shot it with a dart. It wasn’t stuck. So I did the only sensible thing and ran. I jumped off the wall and glided I landed hard and got eaten by the bear. My sister wasn’t being very supportive and was laughing her head off. That stopped when I ate the bear with Yodels the yuty.
One stone foundation and four stone door frames one ramp thank me later
High level dire bears CAN NOT be knocked with bow/crossbow. They will die before they KO. DON'T attempt.
If taming in red woods KEEP AN EYE ON IT!!!!!
I was taking one and went to get some prime meat…
I left for 2 secs and came back to see it get eaten by a pack of Allo’s
RIP untamed dire bear
Can't be carried by crystal wyvern
High level bears in Ragnarok ice cave can't be tamed. I used heaps of darts to knock out a lvl 300 only for it to not eat my honey >:(
Aww a cute level 2, I'm level 70, I can take it.
10 seconds later.
Oh god! Arrghhh
quits game.
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
I Tamed this beast with rock structures you need 2 foundation 2 roof and 8 door frame and then 2 stairs make sure to build it close to the beast so it’s speed doesn’t make it fly off the trap mr bossman out🤫🧏
Don't use crossbow, it will die
When it say 100% chance of death with your fist it means death for you not it
With such a low breed timer and they're alternate swing being the same damage as a Rex they make ideal breeding and are great for meat runs very fast and have huge carry weights. A very good tame one of the best in my opinion
I was taking a level 44 dire bear, he was at 94% tamed and then a Thyloceo came out of nowhere and killed him, raptors and Carnos also don’t like dire bears, I would recommend bringing a Parasaurolophus once you knock out the bear do you can detect incoming enemies who may want to attack it
No-one really uses these- they are so underrated. I’m planning on taming a few as my terrestrial tanks. Tbh, I’m surprised something with this much power is so looked over
These things are easy to tame it’s just the animals around it make it seem impossible
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
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
