ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
I assume this will work anywhere. But in the red woods I like to use pillars to build up until even with the beehive, then put a ceiling at the top, then attach ladders from that ceiling down to the ground so I can climb up to the top and collect the honey. If I don’t have a base nearby I make a bed or a sleeping bag so if the bees kill me in the process so I can just respawn nearby, collect the honey from my corpse and be on my merry way. If I’m able to, I also add ramps so that anyone with a bear will still be able to get up there to collect honey with them.
More Giant Bee Honey Tips
On mobile just craft beehive and put rare flower in it, 5 rare flower will be turned into 1 honey in 40mins
honey cannot be stacked so good luck try to not make it spoils
its a good bait for fishing as it can lure 3x size fish
Drop it to lure nearby dino by putting it into hotbar and tap to drop it for lure (good for taming tapejara & trap quetzals to tame it)
Dont eat it its not worth of 5 rare flower and 40mins that spent & that it only give 20 food and 8 health
Do not store it in dino inventory cuz EVERY dino (means all herbivore or even carnifore and omnivore) will eat honey from its inventory rather than food in feeding through or even any other food in its inventory (even acathina would rather eat it)
Hope this help :)

I would recommend wearing a grass suit so the bees won’t attack you while your stealing their honey, another good option is to ride a fire bear while stealing honey because they are also immune to bee stings (they are mostly found in grass biomes in the side of mountains) (or anywhere on the first level of aberration) hope this helps, have a nice day😊
You can put it on a fishing rod, then remove it, and the spoil timer will reset.
hatchet gives more honey than pick from the rocks in fjordur
Go to the bee cave on Crystal and use bug spray. Hit the small hives on the ground with a pick and you gets gobs of honey and organic polymer.
On mobile you can put rare flower in a bee hive and the rare flower won’t spoil I. The hive or be consumed the bee hive is very overpowered on servers because it will generate while offline so when you come back you get like 200 honey
Can easily be obtained on Fjordur by hitting the rocks with honeycombs on them!!!
Yogi bear can snag you some honey and picnic baskets
For the fellow mobile players: you have to get a beehive and place rare flowers in it to get the honey, it is made in a smithy (can’t remember what level) and can be used to lure wild creatures. Hope this helps!
IF you use a dire bear to collect the honey 🍯 you will get 2 or 3 times as much . Use the swipe attack to gather it.plus you don't aggro the bees or take damage from them,if you do agro them.
