With 30 minutes of preparation, the user known as Kleptin could feasibly vanquish a grizzly bear

There are indeed many ways at which herr Kleptin would be victorious in this battle. http://www.youtube.com... ============================================================================= NOOB COMBOS ============================================================================= Now although there are more advanced tactics which Kleptin could rely on, I shall first start by listing a sure way victory that involves receiving no damage. Utilizing the 30 minutes of prep time within the fighting area, Kleptin could scout the the battlefield and look for some trees which could secure him a comfortable position to sit in, while not being too high above ground. Upon finding such a tree, Kleptin could begin the battle by waiting for the blood lusted adult grizzly bear to come and attack him. The bear would attempt to climb the tree Kleptin was sitting in, but Kleptin could continually spam the bear with knife strikes each time the bear was close to climbing high enough to get a good blow. Upon striking the bear enough (preferably in it's eyes and maybe a through stabs that hit its brain, the bear's HP would eventually drop to zero and it would be dead, leaving Kleptin victorious. An alternative to this tactic would be to climb high up a a very tall tree and wait for the bear to close in on the area in question. Upon the time the bear was in range, Kleptin position his knife downwards, aim for the most feasible vital area on the bear, jump from the highest point of the tree, use gravity to his advantage and lethally wound the bear with his high quality hunting knife. Of course, if Kleptin managed to secure a few miniature boulders after having climbed up the tree in question, he could drop these upon the bear to weaken it before engaging it in close range combat. =========================================================================== Utilizing biological weaknesses =========================================================================== As can be seen on Kleptin's profile, he is majoring in pharmacy, thus there is reason to believe he has a pretty good grasp of pharmaceutical information, specifically concerning biology and what are the best remedies as well as the worst toxins and perhaps the precise areas of a body at which these substances can be rendered the most effective. Kleptin could his knowledge and understanding of biology to his advantage and find natural ingredients on the battlefield or simply tip his high quality hunting knife in snake/spider/salamander venom (in other words, similar to way this weapon has been used historically: http://en.wikipedia.org... ) and strengthen the effect of his weapon. At this point, upon coming in contact with the bear, a few simple swipe to the bear's vital areas would be sufficient enough to make the result of the battle in Kleptin's favor. Granted, this direct approach would probably result in Kleptin getting injured. Fortunately, it is established that Kleptin has extraordinary reasoning abilities (he even admits this in the comment section), thus would be more than capable of logically concluding a method which enabled him to get in a few effective swipes on the opposing bear without any serious injury. The most likely approach would be for Kleptin to design a trap of some sort which would allow him to bypass the bear's detection (so far, I shall insist that making use of his tree climbing skills and waiting for the bear to come by would be the best approach) or convince the bear into believing that he is already dead (which is a more common and effective method of eluding a bear, provided the bear is not merely searching for fear and responding defensively: http://www.nytimes.com... ). Either way, upon the bear being off guard, Kleptin can take the opportunity to latch himself onto the bears back (wrapping his arms under and over the bear's arms: Essentially, a position we see at 5:12 in the video to the right) and wraphis legs around it's waist area. While in this position, Kleptin could maneuver his high quality venom tipped knife to slice the bear's neck and procedurally infect the bear as well as deal damage to this vital area. Eventually, the bear would fall to it's knees and Kleptin would be left the victor. Due to time constraints, I am unable to list more traps designed to catch the bear off guard, but shall list additional methods in the next round should it be necessary for me to do so. However, before I leave, I will provide a few examples of individuals overcoming bears in combat while merely using hunting knifes (just to demonstrate that it is possible): http://neveryetmelted.com... http://www.freerepublic.com... http://query.nytimes.com... Granted, none of these are grizzly bear encounters (black bear encounters) . . . the fact that a humans have been empirically shown to best bears in fair (technically anyway) combat as well as the fact that Kleptin would have the advantage premeditation in this match should lend credibility to the notion that he could feasibly vanquish a grizzly bear with a hunting knife and ingenuity alone given the circumstances which have been listed. And that'll do it for now.
