Giant Bee — Detailed Guide

The Giant Bee is the small drone bee that swarms out of wild hives. ASA lists it as the Giant Bee Drone. It cannot be tamed itself, but it is the main danger when players raid a hive for honey or go after a Giant Queen Bee.

Where to find it

Drones appear together with the Queen when a wild beehive is damaged or destroyed. Hives sit high in redwood trees and on cliffsides.

How to get one

Drones cannot be tamed. A tamed Queen can spawn her own drones, which follow and defend their owner.

Tips

  • Sting: it deals 8 damage and applies a Stung debuff that lowers health and movement speed and dismounts riders.
  • Fighting: drones only live for a limited time and then die off. Ranged weapons and spears handle them well.
  • Protection: Bug Repellant and Ghillie Armor reduce the trouble around hives, and a Dire Bear protects its rider from bees.
  • Honey: drones drop nothing. Honey comes from the hive itself.
