i hate these things! they always seem to be whacking me when i am trying to pull dervishes! i had one hit me for like 35 b4. i almost dided about nine times from these and young ones (light blue ERRR!) o well, im just gonna murder these guys now till im lvl 18, and once im 20 the dmg caps go off, so ill go back and murder them even worse.im using abrams axe of the stoic )
I am a 17 warrior atm but back a couple when i was 14 i was fightin these cuz i was a decent twink n barely ever got hit but they conned yellow and even so the lv range is just about right.
"I know they can max at 16, not 15. Yellow to my lvl 15 warrior"
Well i'm 22 and i've been PLing friends chars in EC and WC for a long time and inbetwee fire beetle and orc kills i'd F with kodiacs just for fun (for some reason they **** me off) and i've NEVER gotten xp from one.. so I think the lvls are right
The kodiak bears for me never dropped the claws, but they do drop HQ bear pelts that go for 50pp on xegony. They are kind of rare but if you still getting exp thats nice money for that lvl, and another hint Watch out for GRIFFINS
These do not drop Kodiak Claws I do not think, I have killed many of these and none of them dropped Kodiak Claws. I am pretty darn sure onlt the ones in GD(Savages, Ferocious, Feral, etc.)in the Kod caves
You are correct, the bears in the old world do NOT drop ANY sort of claws. They drop standard bear loot. For kodiak claws, Icetooth's claws, etc, you have to get them from Velious kodiaks.
Well i have hunted these since 13. (duel wield is great)....they aren't very hard, except that they hit for hard...but they miss alot....i found that they gave me alot of xp...that is how i got to level 15 (same as you stump...i mean champion)..oh yeah about the claws, i have never seen them drop....well that was my story for the day...
All I know is some buddies were killing them left and right, as I was resting to restore mana to port to DL. Then one of my friends said before we ported "anyone who wants kodi claws come get them" and alot of people came and they look like wolverine claws. I dont know if they got them off the bears they were fighting or got them somewhere else, all I know is they handed them out.

I am a 13 warrior and some are yellow most are red so I think th elvl range is correct. I can kill the red ones but I am down to les then a bub of health but GREAT exp
This is my regular meal for my level 13 pet. the trick is... to NEVER let your pet take all the damage. first pull it with a Leach, then send it pet.. then heat blood.. and melee! be sure to be packed with a lifespike/lifedraw and use them whenever you need them. works everytime for me =)

Our group takes on Young Kodiaks pretty regularly. We can continuously pull the area due to our numbers and tactics. When pulling YK's you'll see overlapping bears and sometimes double spawns that move together. Kodiaks will hide among YK's and make things nasty. That's where peole get killed solo. Kodiaks and YK's are VERY Different. Kodiaks resist more, Hit much harder, and take much more to put down. The words over their heads overlap and the con will sometimes only show the Blue YK, not the RED Kodiak. Be safe!
