Initial version: White Bear mount article for Patch 1.01.00
The White Bear is a large bear mount introduced in Patch 1.01.00 of Crimson Desert. It is one of five new permanent summonable mounts added in the patch, alongside the Silver Fang, Snowwhite Deer, Rock Tusk Warthog, and Icicle Edge Alpine Ibex.
As a summonable mount, the White Bear can be called to the player's location at any time, unlike wild-tamed mounts that must be retrieved from stables or found in the open world. Bear mounts in Crimson Desert are known for their large HP pools and solid damage output, making them well suited for combat encounters where survivability matters more than raw speed.
The White Bear was added as part of the Patch 1.01.00 update released on March 28-29, 2026. It is a permanent summonable mount, meaning that once acquired it remains in the player's mount collection and can be summoned from anywhere in the world without needing to visit a stable.
Specific acquisition details, such as whether the White Bear is obtained through a quest, a vendor, an event reward, or another method, were introduced with the patch. Players should check the in-game mount menu or summon list for availability after updating to Patch 1.01.00 or later.
Bears in Crimson Desert are among the most combat-capable mount types. While mounted on a bear, players can trigger the bear's own attack patterns using the mount attack input (RT/R2), while also using their own weapons and skills independently. This dual-attack setup allows for aggressive engagements against groups of enemies.
Bear mounts generally feature the following combat behaviors:
Claw Swipes: Close-range sweeping attacks that hit enemies directly in front of the bear.
Charge: A forward rush that knocks down smaller enemies in the bear's path.
Body Slam: A heavy impact move that deals area damage to nearby targets.
The White Bear's specific damage values and ability scaling have not yet been fully documented. As more players test the mount after the patch, exact numbers will be added to this article.
The table below summarizes the general characteristics of the White Bear. Exact stat values may vary depending on mount level and gear.
Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
Mount Type | Summonable (permanent) |
Species | Bear |
Patch Added | 1.01.00 (March 28-29, 2026) |
HP Pool | High (bears have the largest HP pools among mount types) |
Speed | Moderate (slower than horses and wolves, but very durable) |
Combat Capability | Yes (mount attacks and rider attacks simultaneously) |
The White Bear's high HP makes it a strong choice for riding through areas with dense enemy populations where taking hits is unavoidable.
Because summonable mounts can be called from anywhere, the White Bear works well as a backup option when your primary mount is far away or has been lost.
Bear mounts are slower than horses and wolves. For long-distance travel across open terrain, a faster mount may be more efficient.
Use the bear's charge attack to initiate fights from a distance, then switch to claw swipes for sustained close-range damage.
Pair mounted bear combat with ranged skills from the saddle to maximize damage output while the bear absorbs hits.
