Dire Bears are extremely powerful and are capable of acceleration. The bear is an expert in gathering honey and other resources. While roaming around the Redwood area on the map, players must take a large tame one with them for protection, as the beast is aggressive.

Taming a Dire Bear in Ark Survival Ascended requires multiple in-game items and preparations. Players must trap the bear and then knock it down when taming it. After finding a Dire bear, players must secure the area by taking down all the aggressive beasts on the premises.

After securing the area, players can set up a trap by using door frames or pillars and a large bear trap. Setting up a trap is relatively easy, but all required items must be prepared beforehand.

Required items

• Pillars
• Door Frames
• Large Bear Trap
• Weapons (to knock down the Dire Bear)
• Spike Walls

All one needs to do is construct a box using four pillars and leave one side open. Then, place a bear trap in the center. Once the setup is complete, players can attack the bear and slowly lure it into the trap. After the Ark Survival Ascended bear is immobilized, survivalists can knock it down.

Another method to trap the bear is by creating a small room of door frames with stairs on one side that lead straight inside the room. While the door frames are big enough for people to come out, giant beasts like the Dire Bear won’t be able to. After luring the bear in and trapping it, players can efficiently take it down and start the taming process.

The best food to tame a Dire Bear is Giant Bee Honey. The quantity of honey required to tame the bear may vary based on its level, so players can carry 10-15 of them for safe measures. Giant Bee Honey can be found in the trees of the Redwood area.

Once players have gathered the honey, they can proceed with the taming process by feeding it to the Bear. During the taming process, players must build spike walls around the trap to protect the bear from harm.

After everything has been done according to the guide, players will have their own Dire Bear to use for battles or gathering resources. While players can use various methods to tame the bear, these are some of the best traps in Ark Survival Ascended to tame a Dire Bear.
