Bear (Oblivion)



Bears are ferocious animals that attack you with claws. The two most common bear varieties encountered are brown and black. A large, white-furred variant can also be encountered on Solstheim. The Brown Bear is the stronger than the Black Bear and has incredibly high health, and are most often found in the mountains near Bruma. Spriggans are able to summon Black Bears as an aid against threats.

Bears in Skyrim
Bears can be formidable foes depending on what level you are. They should be avoided as much as possible until you know you are strong enough to fight them. They are both fast and powerful. Their health can be dropped semi-easily but they can maul anyone with health under 200 in just a few hits. Black, Brown and Frost bears can be encountered in Skyrim.
