The party will be of 5 Level 8 PCs and 2 Leve 7 PCs.  The spellcaster are 1 Cleric and 2 Sorcerers. None of them Fly. I have a house rule for hitpoints in which 1's are rerolled and instead of d8 we use d6+2. This leads to far tougher beasts (good for the goose....) . The systems works out to 1.5 hps more per HD. with this method the Bear has 216 hps...without considering any constitution bonus.  So if they decie to take it on, the Bear will wallop them. The whole point of this beast is to have them solve problems in an oblique fashion, instead of what we've come to call "The Barbarian Way".  even though they have a lot of stealthy characters, the only aproach tehy ever use is send the barbarian first and Full Power attack. Then they swarm. Considering this, if they decide to fight it, I have no doubt that the Bear will slaughter them. By the way, I'll use the elite array (This baddie i almost a Hero in his own right <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> )</blockquote>
