The Ursa Totemic

Dangerous Direbears

The ursa totemic is a powerful melee fighter and can take a prodigious amount of damage before falling. Ursa totemics represent the continued evolution of their race and are strong melee combatants that rely on natural weapons and sheer toughness to see them through. The ursa totemic rends and mangles his opponents, crushes them in bear hugs, rips them apart with his jaws, and only then notices that he is bleeding from dozens of wounds. -Blizzard Entertainment

Bristling Fur [Passive]

Bear Hug [Active]

Spell Description:

Death usually follows close behind anyone that comes too close to an Ursa Totemic's claws. One of their preferred ways of dispatching prey is by crushing them in a tight embrace that suffocates and crushes the bones of the victims, leaving them a crumpled heap.

Spell Effect at Rank 1:

Galactic Guardian [Passive]

Further Critical Strikes will refresh the duration on the target.

Raging Frenzy [Passive]

Spell Description:

Nothing draws attention like a raging bear. Their fury inspires fear into enemies that look upon them and triumphant awe in their allies. Being the most terrifying thing on the battlefield does however make an Ursa Totemic a prime target.

Overrun [Active]

Spell Description:

Ursa Totemics are not always raging monsters of fur and claw. Many times Ursa Totemics have a very strong desire to protect those they care about with their monumental strength. In combat these individuals keep a close eye on those they are with, ready to spring to their aid.
