How to fight the autumn boss in Don't Starve Together? When does the autumn boss appear in the mobile version of Don't Starve Together?

In the survival game Don't Starve Together, there is an interesting setting where players face different challenges in different seasons, and each season has its unique boss. Today, I will introduce how to defeat the autumn boss in Don't Starve Together. Autumn is not only a good time to collect resources but also when you will face the season's unique boss, which offers generous rewards upon defeat.

The boss that appears in autumn in Don't Starve Together is the Bearger. This boss does not spawn in the first autumn but appears in the following year's autumn. Unlike other seasonal bosses, the Bearger is neutral, meaning it will not attack the player unless provoked, or if the player carries honey-related food items. When the Bearger spawns, it emits a roar and dialogue lines to alert the player. The Bearger does not disappear at the end of autumn; if not defeated, it remains, and will not respawn in the next year's autumn. Therefore, it is crucial to clear it out in time, or it will interfere with the appearance of the next year's autumn boss.

This boss has unique behavioral patterns, including hibernation. In the multiplayer version, although it does not disappear due to the change of seasons, it enters a hibernation state during winter and spring, and becomes active in summer and autumn. If attacked while hibernating, the Bearger, upon waking, will hypnotize all creatures and players within a wide range for 10 seconds. In a neutral state, if the player competes with the Bearger for food, it will issue warnings, and after three consecutive warnings, it will become hostile. Throwing the Bearger into a pit can terminate this hostility. The Bearger is quite afraid of fire, and when near flames, it panics and flees, increasing its movement speed to enter a high-speed mode.

During combat, the Bearger has several attack methods. One is using its paws to hit the player, causing weapons to be knocked away. Another is stomping the ground, creating an AOE effect that destroys buildings and trees within the area and knocks away the player's weapon. Generally, the skill cycle involves two paw strikes followed by one ground stomp. The specific strategy is to attack the boss once, then run away. The Bearger will then strike with its paw, at which point you should attack twice more before running again. By repeating this cycle, you can lure the Bearger, with its high damage, directly into the forest, where Treeguards will assist in the attack, or into the swamp where Merms can attack. Setting up traps can also help in defeating the boss.

The items dropped by this boss fall into two categories. The first category is common drops, such as Shaggy Fur, which drops every 45 seconds during the Bearger's activity in spring and summer, and has a chance to drop three pieces when it slams the ground. Collecting 90 pieces allows the synthesis of three Bear Pelts. The second category includes boss-specific drops, such as the Insulated Pack, which has eight inventory slots and provides double the freshness duration for stored food. The Fur Vest offers high insulation, automatically restores sanity every minute, and reduces the rate of hunger consumption. The Polar Bear Rug is a container for storing dishes, providing extra dedicated slots, and preserving food 20 times longer than usual.

Now, everyone knows how to defeat the autumn boss in Don't Starve Together. Overall, this boss is relatively easy to kill because it is neutral, and its skill cycle is predictable. The dropped items are very useful, so make sure to challenge it promptly.
