I was killed by a bear! It knocked me out twice and decided to kill me the second time.
How do I prepare my next character to survive a bear attack? Note I don't need to kill it.. assume I'm about 30sec-1min away from safety (boat or house). Is it just a matter of pumping UA and CON? How much do I need?

Re: How to survive
For a bear, your only salvation comes in the form of Armor. You just can't possibly stop his attacks well enough that he won't kill you in one hit as a newbie. A set of q10 leather armor is enough to buy you the time you need to get to your boat or house.

Unless you get caught in a swamp. Then you're fucked harder than a lonely guy's fleshlight on Valentines Day.

I thought UA helped your dodge move. Or is it pointless to develop UA if I don't plan to fight back?

Re: How to survive
It won't help enough to stop a bear with that little UA.

Re: How to survive
It's useless when you are running, because you have 0 defence when you move no matter what your skill is. So it only helps if you got enough to actually beat the bear, and it'll be a long while before you get there. 100 UA can be enough if you're really good at the combat system, but for a new player anything less than 200 is too risky.

Doesn't armor work as a hp buffer tought, so the armor take the first damage until it break even if you are running? I think its what save my toon few times from hunting mistakes i made.
