Tips & Strategies
A lot of people have trouble finding these on genesis so here’s the place. Travel to the bog around cords 75 75. You will see trees that go so high that they are higher than the clouds. Above the clouds on these trees you can find hives. Some on the sides of the trees or some on the branches. Best thing to do is find one on a brand so you have a place to stand. Build two foundations side by side underneath the hive. Walls on each side two high and on the front two doors. Box it in and out Ramos down from the doors to get up it easy. Walk in the doors and break the hive inside the boxed in area. The bee can’t escape so just step in and out of the box to tame it as needed. If your attacked step outside and kill the bees hitting you. Once tamed grab your hive and dip! Stalkers work great for finding the hives as the hive will have a red glow around it. Also being that they are real high up they help get up to them. Hope this helps anyone having issues finding them.

Will not transfer over servers once you tame it.

They were bugged so you couldnt find the nests. Turns out they were invisible. The recent patch should have fixed it.
I had found about 30 beehive on The Island map. They were all empty. NO QUEEN BEE WTH.
Can't find them on Lost Island, anyone else?
Not sure if this is just me or not but on console when she summons her soldiers while trying to tame it kicks you off the server
The anti meshing keeps kill8ng my queen tame. I don't know how to stop this
There's a glitch in lost island when you break the hive the queen doesn't come out i could've been having bad lack but idk
I make about 40-50 fishing poles (they're cheap) and fly around with an argy or wyv stealing honey from hives. Honey never goes bad in fishing poles and I take it out as needed. Then just fly away from the worker bees. Gilly is best if you have it.
Beehives can also be found on cliff faces outside the redwood biome, if your not looking to be mauled by a thylacoleo.
