🐻 Direbear Behemoth — Raid Guide

⚔️ Recommended Setup

• Recommended: 80K+ troops
• Troops: 2x Tanks, DPS (ranged units and heroes)
• Formation: Tanks pull Direbear away from DPS — spread out
• Key: Bring 3–4 Spirit Bangle (mages) for Darkseal cleanup

🧭 Phase 1 — Pull & Positioning

• Tank pulls Direbear and holds aggro
• Isolate the boss to protect DPS from AoE
• DPS stay at max range with ranged units
• Keep distance to reduce AoE damage

✔ Goal: Stable positioning, Direbear isolated from DPS

🟣 Phase 2 — Darkseal Management

• Direbear casts "Darkseal" — a risk zone spawning on the ground
• Purple ground zone deals continuous Magic damage
• DPS stay out of purple ground zone
• Mages with Spirit Bangle can dispel seal quickly for group safety
• Darkseal deals 3% of max Unit Count per second

🔥 Critical: Avoid all purple ground zones — 3–4 Spirit Bangle recommended for cleanup!

🔴 Phase 3 — Dark Rush (CRITICAL)

• Direbear charges forward in straight line
• Charge cycles increase: Cycle 1: 1 charge → Cycle 2: 2 charges → continues increasing
• Watch for charge indicators — call them out to your team
• Everyone dodges by moving 90° sideways — do NOT run backward
• If Direbear hits a wall → Stunned (DEF reduced by 40%)
• If Direbear hits someone → Deals damage and leaves poison on ground

💎 Strategy: Coordinate dodges — let Direbear hit wall to get stun window for full burst + artifacts

💚 Phase 4 — Healing Manastone

• Healing Manastone appears periodically on the ground
• When gathered, heals all units nearby
• Pick up when Leadership calls — coordinate collection
• Also appears when Direbear misses Dark Rush (Dumbstuck)

✔ Goal: Maintain unit health throughout the fight

⏰ Phase 5 — Enrage Timer

• 8 minutes after battle starts → Direbear enrages
• Dark Brutality → All damage increased by 1,000%
• Must defeat before 8 minutes or wipe

🚨 Time Limit: 8 minutes — coordinate DPS bursts!

📌 Key Rules

• Spread out — avoid stacking
• 3–4 Spirit Bangle recommended for Darkseal cleanup
• Watch for charge indicators — call them out to your team
• Dark Rush = Priority — Dodge sideways (90°), let Direbear hit wall for stuns
• Avoid Darkseal — Stay out of purple ground zones
• Tanks Isolate — Keep Direbear away from DPS
• Maximize DPS during stun windows — Use full burst + artifacts
• 8 Minute Timer — Defeat before enrage or wipe

✅ Victory Condition

• Dodge all Dark Rush charges (let Direbear miss for stuns)
• Avoid all Darkseal purple zones
• Maintain tank control with taunt artifacts
• Defeat within 8 minutes
• = Clean kill with minimal casualties

Dodge charges. Avoid seals. Beat the timer. 🐻💀
