when i was in my 70s i was doing the Totem of the Stonemight in The Steppes . looked for a nice camp spot. found one along the south wall in the center of the goblin " village ". shaman and warrior getting ready. buff my warrior to jump in . and here i go !!!
----CHARGE !! TIME TO DIE GOBLINS!!!----
---- BOOM ! where did that HP go ?? nearly 1/3 gone? WTH!?!?!?
---- i turn around to run back to my shaman wondering what happened and that's when i see it. that little ****** was hiding in a small square building not much bigger than an oger with one door facing the goblin village. at that point i freak out OMFG that thing hit me for 8000 !?!?! ouch
---- i popped riposte disc and BOOM again !!! JEEZ !!a few fast heal to get back to full and start fighting back...
--- finally managed to kill it. its DPS is really low if you don't count the DD proc. at first it is just scary :P but when you get passed that first or second DD hits, it is a piece of cake.
he drops crap for loot. so if you want to do the totem quest... just be careful because the bear pops in the center of that village near this named, or at least where it poped for me.
