About

Warning! Bears are aggressive and will attack any Pilgrim that wanders to close. They also instill fear which drains Black Bile proportionate to how scared you are.

Butchering yields 11 meat shreds, 9 raw bear cuts, 4 raw bear steaks and 1 brain with all butchering skills.

Note: It is important to skin the bear first, or the butchering will ruin the skin.

==Combat Behaviour==


Like most animals in Salem, bears use hit-and-run AI, meaning they will aimlessly run around between hits. They have a big hitbox, so it shouldn't be hard to hit them while they move. Damage done by bears causes Fear on characters with humours of 50 or less. They run at the running speed of a player, so outrunning them is difficult. Normal hits do around 10 damage.

Bears also have a couple of special moves:

  • Roar - used outside combat and when enemy is not close enough. Increases fear debuff signifficantly. Best to avoid and stay close to the bear.
  • Stun - bear will stand on hind legs and hammer player with their paws causing 5 damage and short stun. Can be avoided if player moves away fast enough


All bear attacks cause reel and deal increased damage on reeling targets


Needs confirmation - one attack can deal massive damage (25+), however it's hard to tell why and when it's used. I was hit (bit) for over 25 damage after briefly trying to run and having my back turned to the bear.
