The structure hive that you place will get damaged over time, to repair simply destroy it and reform the hive; be sure to gather all resources from the hive before demolishing it. Rinse and repeat

Break the hive, use big repellent and feed the queen rare flowers. Pick up the queen and she turns into the hive to be placed.

Use dire bear as bee's don't damage them and use bear to destroy nest with ease be careful not to kill Queen and i suggest to use rare flowers as easy to find to tame Queen and you have your own bee hive

Feed Your Hive Rare Flowers And It Will Stay In It’s Hive For A Long Time Or So And If You Don’t The Queen Bee Will Pop Out

Honey the bee creates expires quickly. (even in a fridge.)
You can actually (attach) the honey to a fishing rod and remove at anytime. This will prevent the honey from ever expiring! Good way to store it as fishing rods are so cheap to make!

Their favorite kibble is simple kibble now

Wyvern bites are the easiest way to break the hive, just crawl below it, take off and bite.

Notice it is effected by bola. Fruitful thought. If it drops and is still out of range just bola it lol

I actually had a hive spawn on green obelisk in the island, so that's always good place to look if you're trying to find one. Can also be found in redwoods, or on surrounding rocks in case you don't wanna get mauled by Thylacoleos.

If taming, do NOT take your eyes off it!!! I lost mine because I couldn't see where it went.

Sometimes when the hive is destroyed the queen will just fly in place. If you have a quetzal or a Tapejara you can fly up to it and passive tame it right there. I recommend bringing medical brew just so you don't have to worry about the drones. Make sure to feed your tame bug repellant as well.

In Ragnarok they are commonly found under rock bridges towards the blue obelisk!

If you hit the hive with a club the worker bees wont come out

They spawn on Redwood trees, always lvl 5, break the hive with a flyer, the queen should drop on the ground, bring ghillie + bug repellant, you need 2 ichty kibbles or 5 flowers, the queen seems passive but the bees will attack you. Once tamed you can convert the queen into a hive (structure) it produce 1 honey pot per hour (not sure)

When your process of taming the giant bee is done they can't be placed on foundations so place it at ground level.

Need honey in Aberration? You might find that taming one of these guys is unnescessary. You can hardly walk ten steps without finding a wild bee hive (not including the bioluminescent areas, of course), and seeing as the hazard suit also protects you from the “BEEEES!” effect, you can freely harvest these hives without fear of stings.

Either use a wyvern to quickly destroy nest or use spyglass and argent to whistle attack while sat out of drone range. Once nest is destroyed make sure your ghillie is on and your bug repellent is active, whistle tame passive then crouch down and stalk your queen while feeding it rare flowers. Crouching works well for staying out of drone attack range, the drones die after so long and that is your window to ram flowers down the queen's throat. Happy hunting.

Direbears are immune to bee stings very useful for destroying bee hives

When on the hunt for taming a queen, note that not all hives will have a queen bee inside. If you attack a hive and workers begin to swarm, you've found the queen. If not, try another hive or kill off the empty ones for more potential tames to spawn.

(WILD HONEY GATHERING MADE EASY)
If you have a hive located directly next to a easily accessible/escapable water source , no piranhas preferably.
Here's how to get honey without taming.
Climb/walk up to hive , grab honey , drop/jump directly into water,
Swim about 2 to 4 Boulder lengths away (Underwater) drones can't attack and will retreat back to hive . Rinse&Repeat
Do this as many times as you need honey !!!
