What are tips for giant bee? Tips and strategies for giant bee in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I took my Giga and my Argy.. I bit the best once with the Giga and broke it, cleared up the worker bees (be careful not to eat the queen) and then I flew after the queen on my Argy and Tamed her with 1 simple kibble
A good wall-clinger with high melee can bust open a live hive without spawning too many bees and can clear out dead hives in the redwoods to promote spawning of live ones.
Use a skiff with a dire bear and chilliest suit.
Want to tame a Bee in the redwoods, but don’t feel like building anything? Simply use a Bronto and whack that give with it’s tail. When the bees come, you won’t have to worry about being kicked off your mount and your Bronto will absolutely destroy them. When the Queen comes out, simply tame it with your desired resource.
If no ghillie armor is available, taming a direbear will do just fine! There are usually a lot of intermediate level-high level bears outside of the swamp near the redwoods!
Use a lower level bear to destroy the hive and the bees do not get agode
Use a dire bear's roar to scare it in the direction you want. We used 2 people on on the bear and one on the ground. The man on the ground snuck up to the bee with bug spray fed it and retreated to the bear the bear then attacked all of the bees that were aggroed to me.
If the hive is in a tree and you want to use melee build a platform below and place walls going up to just below the hive. Then build a small structure around the hive. Try to make the top of the hive stick out of the structure (drones come from the top). Destroy hive while inside and the queen bee will spawn and be trapped (with a fully enclosed structure drones can't attack you). Easy tame and no chasing.
you can find the nests in the redwoods. watch out for thylacoleo's.
If your are struggling with rare flowers just find low lvl therizeno do reg tame not starve unless u got kibble. then go to swamp they gather insane amounts of flowers and fiber there. Use as lawnmower run and harvest hope this helps
Queen Bee is passive flee tame. Must Lose agro to tame. Vote up please.
Very easy to do just have full Ghillie an bug repellent used bear a destroy the hive “should only take like 2 or 3 hits” then the queen comes out an make sure you pick up honey from hive an place it down the bee will go for it or just Crouch the whole time an use a sword to kill the bees it poops out
Wear ghille than charge with flowers in you last slot you don’t need bug spray but it is good to have and to destroy the hive useing a Rex seems to work but if it is close to the ground you can crouch and spear or pike it you will need friends though
One of the least costly methods is using the pteranodon's barrel roll attack. It'll chip away at the hive's health fairly quickly, just have patience.
These hives can also be found on cliffs other than the redwood trees. This can be helpful if you don't want to get mauled by a carno, or a pair of dire bears.
Use flame arrows and stand between tribemate's rex's legs. They kill the bees and you can focus on killing the hive
Took forever to find a nest and even longer to get the queen out.my recommendation being friends.
Taming these can be annoying due to them flying away once or twice
(timeconsuming) build 8-10 fence foundation polygon around the base of the tree, apply thatch walls 2 obove the height of the hive, the bee will then slowly decend leaving it stuck in a small area, wear ghillie and bugspray, once you feed the queen she will whistle the drones on you, you then have to run away until they die off,
The Queen will produce 1 drone every 2 seconds with a max of 10ish that she can have at any time. Once max limit is reached a drone will die and another to take its place
Use a pronto to break the hive with around 3-4 hits and then tame the queen, just used it to destroy and accidentally kill the hive and queen
