Tips & Strategies
I'll be honest with you, taming these on scorched earth, Ragnarok and modded maps with scorched engrams and recourses is best, "why?" Because there you have flame arrows and flame throwers, simply shoot the hive with your gun of choice, I recommend anything but a rocket launcher or tek rifle since whenever I try it with those nothing comes out, then burn the drones with a flamethrower, it's most effective, once you've gotten rid of them run up to the Queen, jump, and feed her, that's how it's done, all the drones will tame to you and you should be good, then just obtain bee hive and once you get back to base place the bee hive and demolish it, your bee will come out just fine, if you want honey just place the hive and give it rare flowers, I recommend having camouflage on so they don't attack you, you'll soon get some honey for taming bears and liopluerodons, and making veggie cakes, I believe it's in megalania kibble as well.

Will not transfer over servers once you tame it.
Flame.
Thrower.
Bears are not immune to bees. RIP Yogi
Something I see way too often even with veterans is that if a hive doesnβt spawn mini bees THERE IS NO QUEEN donβt waste time run near hives and if physical bees pop out there is a queen it will also make a loud ass sound btw. Remeber ghille will work with no repellant but repellant makes life easier
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
