Role, availability & values

The recorded profile has 475 hit points, 20% ranged resistance, 6.75 speed and 12 Line of Sight. His hand attack deals 28 damage every 1.5 seconds, while siege deals 30 at range 6 every three seconds. He increases the speed of nearby friendly units, can claim Treasures and regenerates 0.25% of his hit points per second after 3.5 seconds idle. If reduced to zero, he collapses and can be revived by an ally or building nearby after recovering 100 hit points.

Matchup & timing

Keep Bull Bear near Chayton’s troops when the group needs to move quickly, but avoid sending him ahead of the units he is meant to support. Pull him out of combat to let his idle regeneration work. In this scripted mission, protect the hero through the battle rather than planning to queue him from an ordinary Stable or War Hut.

The campaign appearance explains the training fields

Bull Bear is identified as a hero appearing in Battle of the Greasy Grass, where he joins Chayton’s troops. His data page includes a Coin cost and training time, but those profile fields are not a promise of standard civilization access in that scenario. He is a mission character whose speed support and recoverable hero state help the scripted force.
