Default Club of a thousand bears.

Okay, how the hell do you beat this quest?! >.< I know I have to finish the bear off with the club, but it does so little damage that by the time I get the bear down to almost 0 health and switch to the club, he uses that one skill that boosts his max health for 12 seconds, or troll urgent. ( I'm a D/W, btw. I'm using Ebon Dust Aura and 2 other earth skills so I can do earth damage. (I only have one scythe weapon and it's not earth damage, so. >_>) I try getting it down low on health, switch to club and then use one of the earth attacks OR the PVE sunspear skill (mine does around 97 damage) but reguardless, it either heals or gains more health, forcing me to switch back to the scythe to get it's health lower again. x_X ( I do anywhere from 9-43 or so damage with my scythe and only 3 damage with the club.)

I'm sorry if this has been answered before, but it's pissing me off. >.<;; (I spent the last TWO hours trying to switch fast enough to the club to take it out, and it's just not working. ~-~)

Try doing what you normally do, but then spike it with the Norn skill called "Finish Him!". It does damage, deepwound, and cracked armor. Its a shout too Might work. If not, the only thing I can imagine you doing is wielding the club whille casting offensive enchantments and then spiking him (The bear) with mystic sandstorm.

I've never done a "spike" before, let alone a mystic sandstorm build. x-x Uuhh. where do you get the "finish him" shout at? right now the only norn skills I have are the wolf, raven and bear ones, as well as " I am the strongest," "You move like a dwarf," and "Feel no pain"

Oi, you have to beat the tournament/Bison?! >.< yeah, I can't do that. I tried during the preview event a good 15 times and got my ass kicked every time, so unless somebody has developed a better dervish build that to use Ebon dust cloak, (since I don't have an earth Scythe) I can't do that. x_x

All I did was equip the club and kept hitting the bear until it died. It took a few minutes but was very easy.

wtf? o_O

The club does 3 damage per hit when I wield it, and when you count it's regen skill and it's +hp skill..that seems extremely unlikely.

Try using one of the elite forums that you get from the Norn. IIRC that's how I beat it.

Use pretty much any damage skills/spells you want, I found that as long as the club makes the final blow that kills him you pass.

i equiped the club then.. used rodgorts invocation.. and it was legit.. that was preview weekend though. i'd say.. use a summoning jutsu to derail the thread?.. multi track drifting while doing barrel rolls.

I don't think I even used the club. If I did, it was only because I was supposed to equip it. I used my standard set of Mes spells to take him out, empathy and degen.

As a warrior I had equipped [skill]Charging Strike[/skill] as it does +42 extra damage on hits, it was really easy, also bring interrupts if he is healing or something :/

Just kick his ass with ur normal weapon till he goes very close to death, then give him the last strike. It worked

Except that is exactly what the OP is doing and its not working.


What I did on my Paragon was use Mending Refrain (+4 regen) and Ursan Blessing. I was running with 13 Motivation and 12 Hammer mastery, but I don't think I actually hit with the club itself much as I was spamming out the Ursan skills. So I'd suggest going /Mo for Mending and Watchful Spirit with the blessing (you have less armour, so you probably will need more regen). Maybe throw Retribution in there as well for some extra DPS.

But doesn't mending get canceled when you use the blessing? Or is it not an enchantment?
