If made afraid, it may become angry!

Useful Info
Polar bears are the largest of the bears found in the Dungeon, boasting cold resistance, and dealing significantly more damage than grizzly bears. When severely injured, they may go berserk, greatly increasing their threat level. Polar bears are amphibious and easily traverse deep water. They can be found in the dungeon (uncommon) or the Ice Cave vault.

Tips & Tricks
- While other bears are mostly pushovers, polar bears do enough damage to deserve some respect.
- Due to their cold resistance, polar bears are immune to Ensorcelled Hibernation. Other Hexes or Mephitic Cloud will work just fine, though.
History
Prior to 0.6, polar bears did not berserk.
