Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
After destroying the hive use the honey it drops to keep the queen close by adding it to task bar and throwing it on the floor it works guys
If you want to tame one, the easiest way is to get a dire bear and break the nest, because they are immune to bees. Use it to break the nest, then when the nest beaks, make sure you have full ghille armor and bug repellent, and tame it with simple kibble. You can then go to the bee and press the 'aquire nest' button, and it will give you a bees nest. You can place this on any natural ground, but no human made floors. Put rare flowers into it, and it will produce giant bee honey over time. Rare flowers can be harvested from plants in the swamps across the island, but beware of the creatures that dwell there. When you go into your bees nest to gather honey, you will get the bee effect and start taking damadge, even though it is your own bees nest.
Will not transfer over servers once you tame it.
The best way I’ve found to tame the. Was with a flying shoulder pet - Sinomacrops or Dimorph are best just don’t forget to turn off auto scream on sino.
Whistle your pet to attack the hive and run a ways away so you’re just out of render range. You’ll have to figure out the right range, but if you get far enough away the bees won’t spawn, and when the hive breaks the queen won’t run or spawn bees.
Passive tame. Use rare flowers. Take about 4-5. Use full ghille and bug spray. Even then the bees she summon may attack. She has a very bad view distance compared to other Dino's so stay close.
I found using a shadowmane that deals 2200 damage can one hit the hive then let it get out of agro range get off tame and run to it with rare flowers in hot bar spamming Y I'm on xbox still recomend using gilly armor and bug repellant tho but I tamed 12 in less than an hour only hard part was finding hives but thank the ark gods for YouTube lol
Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you don’t have a bear
Your probably screwed

The Giant Bee builds its nest at the tops of Redwood trees. While it's not an easy task, a nest can be broken open and the queen can be tamed. Once tamed, she will generate honey as well as lay drone eggs.
