It’s prob best to not take any chances and use darts, but if u do use arrows just make sure your blood overlays are set on in the options menu so when it’s getting too bloody u know u need to stop to give it time to heal. I’m sure it’s not full proof but it’s worked for me the few times I’ve tried it. Both in single player and in official server.

Try using soothing balm thats a good trick

build a stone gate box make sure it is stone and have a tribe mate on a argi and tranq it or use da frog

Use a trap made from door frames lead it in close the gate trnq dart it and it will fall asleep boas don't work and to tame high lvl one get a low lvl bear get honey with it which is good as kibble for bears then fame a 150 ez

me and my friend used an argy trap and just knocked it out in there

Wooo i tamed a lvl 100 and a lvl 65 with arrows

Guys these things will eat berries/mejoberries

I downed a 145 with arrows and crossbow just stagger your shoots about 5 seconds apart and it will end eventually go down.

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🤫🧏

DONT SHOOT UNTIL IT FALLS!!! Take a careful watch over it’s health and, when it is low STOP shooting. Check the top or number with the telescope, it will continue to increase. Shoot it again only when the meter begins to go down and keep measuring until asleep.

When i tamed one for my brother, i got up on a rock which i thought was unreachable from the grund. Turns out either there was a slope or a troodon defied gravity just for a nice meal, be wary of your surroundings while taming these, it will be worth it if you put a couple lvls into health. As many others said, these things kill rexes easily.

Go ahead bring a few hundred narcs with ya. Your going to need them.

Eats berries and meat! That is good because if you have more let's say, berries than meat, you can use that. (Btw they prefer berries over meat)

The direbear is best all around pet it will collect berry,meat,hide,chitin,fur,low lvl 5 bear comes with 600 lbs carry and speeds close to a girlie use a trap to pin it up and thank it.

So for the people who wants to tame this beast easily with tranq arrows:

1. You gotta set up a box trap (My design: 2 stone foundations, 6 stone doorways and a wooden ramp. The normal box trap needs only 1 stone foundation and 4 stone doorways and a ramp, but it has a flaw that when you lure the bear up the ramp, it may jump over the box and kill you. My design is better because the bear will 100% fall inside of it.)

2. Once the bear is inside the trap, shoot it with tranq arrows each per 4-5 seconds. I recommend using the spy glass to check its torpor every time you shoot it for safety of not accidentally killing it. If the hp gets too low and the torpor isnt full yet, just wait until it regens enough hp, and then shoot it again (the HP regen of the bear is faster than the torpor drop, thats why it works).

3. Optional: cover the box with spikes around it so no predators can approach it while it's on low HP

4. While it's regenerating its HP, you can go hunt for some prime meat or do something else if you have a base nearby. You can also get some dinos to come to protect the bear when it's knocked out.

5. Feed it kibbles, honey, mutton, or just prime meat (raw meat is also ok but the taming rate will be lower)

6. Congratulations now you have tamed the beast

Direbears are omnorvers! Best for supor kibble or giant bee honey. Best to use tranq darts than tranq arrows case a direbears torpor is higher that it heath.

I would recondmend the red woods i found a lvl 115 there

Can’t Climb rocks get on rocks and use Tranq Arrows

They like honey just as much as kibble, just get so,e honey from your local beehive and then you are good to go

Be ready to make tranq darts

And u should have a taming pen
