Bears are (not so) scary. Bear rage doesn't seems to work.

Hello Dev,
I have noticed strange thing lastly. When i'm fighting with bears lately I can cause them to escape ~150hp damage dealt. After that I can chase it with boat or horse and kill. Seems normal? Yeah, but as You know bear is always enraging after next couple hundrets damage dealt to it. It should berskerk and attack me in return, but it doesn't. Only his icon is changing to raging bear, but it is not attacking me anymore, it just keeps running. Please look at it, because bears are now easiest enemies to kill ;)
Thanks.

How to.
1.Find a bear
2.Attack a bear (i'm using Hirdsman sword)
3.Deal 150hp with 3-4hits.
4.Cause bear to run.
5.Hit bear hard until it die.
6.Don't worry about rage, because it's not working.

(i noticed that, before killing blow i need to hit bear 2-3 times after it's image has changed, but even on rage it doesn't stop running nor doesn't attack)

This is an old behavior. I'm not sure how much of the code has gotten reused from legacy and with the combat changes, but they'd do this in legacy, too. I'm not saying you're wrong with it being a bug/undesirable behavior, but it is known. The portrait always changes when it drops to a certain level of HPs.

Bears have always been easy to kill if you truly understand the combat system. That's why mammoths and trolls are so ugly in mechanics.

Yeah, I agree that it seems a bit broken/tame. Will look at it.
