You can take down this boss using either melee or ranged attacks. However, we’d recommend choosing a ranged form of attack for dodging easily during difficult situations.
First Phase
The first phase in V Rising doesn’t reveal much about how this boss operates. Since the Ferocious Bear is huge in size, its movements are slow but if she hits you, you’ll feel it.

You need to be aware when it’s on its hind legs and try to evade it as soon as the red circle intensifies. Get as far away as possible because each attacked will be followed by more slams and this is where a ranged approach is ideal.
In this phase, the Bear can also get up close to you and try to obliterate and a shield will be handy in such situations in case you’re unable to escape.
Second Phase
The second phase will unleash the Bear’s ultimate power. Along with the previous attacks, it’ll go into Rage mode with faster movement speeds preventing you from dodging enraged attacks.
You’ll either need to use a shield to block the attack or use Veil of Chaos to travel to a different location within her den. During this time, it may even run up to a close range and try to stun you. If it maneuvers this attack during enraged mode, you’ll be instantly wiped.
After all of this, the Bear will be vulnerable to attacks and if played wisely, you’ll be able to defeat it from a distance.
