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.

Giant bee honey should not spoil but it should crystallize but you can heat it up at a campfire and it will turn back to liquid honey

Will not transfer over servers once you tame it.

The fact that irl, Honey will NEVER spoil, makes it absurd that this honey spoils so quickly...

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.

To avoid wasting your time, if no bees come out when you attack or take honey, it means that there is no queen in that hive.

After 23 bee hives what finally worked for me was

I used a snow owl to find the nests

I harvested the nest with a dire bear while wearing ghillie and used bug repellent

Broke the nest with the dire bear

Put honey in my hotbar to keep her right where i wanted her

While she ate it i fed her rare flowers

Boom TAMED

Roses are red

Violets are blue

If you don’t have a bear

Your probably screwed

Flame.

Thrower.

ALWAYS break the hive with ranged attacks. If you choose to melee it,drones will continuously spawn from it infinitely, and they will repair the hive, so best to shoot it down and kill all the drones before attempting a tame. Oh, and the queen will spawn more drones periodically, so bee careful.

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.

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

Desmodus actually is good for taming these just hit their nest and fly side to side and kill the workers then keep watch of the health once it’s low shoot it with a arrow and she should come out then just feed her 3 rare flowers.

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.

Someone here said it cant be transfered. It can when inside of a cryo.

After a while trying to get the queen in order to avoid wasting time, I just shoot an arrow on the hive, if nothing happens it means there's no Queen. Move to the next hive. Hope it helps :)

It can transfer servers but not in hive form. Hold whatever hotkey allows you to demolish hive. You can then cryo queen. It will transfer as a cryo’d tame. Once you take her out of the pod access her to create the hive for placement on the new server.

You can also tame the wandering ones but you still have to wear guile
