How do I tame a giant bee? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a giant bee.
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
I would have to say get a megalaina for this they can climb if it's up on a tree they can climb a tree I did it they are good as well for destroying the hive remember once hive is destroyed cryo your megalaina but use bug repellent then make sure you have rare flower and the honey remember dont let the queen spot you if it does you cant tame it
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
I,ve always used a wyv. 3 chomps nest breaks, follow bee to ground staying in render distance. full ghillie, bug repellent, 1 simple kib per. Can come home with 5-10 bees a run. Beware on the center some bee nests are bugged and when you demo them they don't turn back into a bee. Not sure if that's all maps or not.
Ok. I have looked till I'm blue in the face and there aren't any beehives in the trees on crystal isles. The worker bees in the cave don't appear to be tamable either.
Tried taming with bear, bear wasn't immune and got attacked by the bees the Queen spawns. Rip Bear.
Easy rare flowers for honey and/or taming: beaches north of the eastern swamp where the forest, beach, and swamp biomes meet; pick your favorite harvester and you will get hundreds of flowers in minutes. The kapros/sucros rarely wander from the swamp and the swamp bushes are available all the way up to the forest. Most common enemies are just annoying, like dilos or jerk pelicans, with the occasional raptor or carno if you go too far up the beach.
I use a Wyvern and use the ability on the tek helmet and when the worker bees aggro me I walk backwards and when I’m safe distance I eat the worker bees and not the queen and I tame 25 in a hour or two.
Have ghili bug spray have food in inv use a wyvern to brake the hive and follow the bee unmount on top of it spam e run and mount up and repeat till tame that's how to counter the little bees attacking you
Wear a full ghille suit and use bug repellent be careful when using dinos to destroy the hive as you may accidentally kill the queen
If your going to use a quetz, bring a turtle on it to tank drones while you feed mother bee 100% easy as cake
If you stay crouched the drones won't hit you as much, and prone they hardly hit you at all, so if you are overwhelmed by the drones just go prone. I tamed a bee with drones hovering over me most of the time. This is with full ghillie and repellent by the way.
If you don’t have ghillie or bug repellent, keep your distance from the queen, wait till it turns towards you. Then run as fast as you can towards its head and spam feed. If you miss turn around and get on a mount to kill the bees away from the queen. Repeat…
Set bear on passive, use bug repellent on you and bear, kibble in taming bar. Damage hive one hit at a time and let bees die on bear. Watch for hive colour to darken hinting it is not far from being destroyed. As soon as it’s destroyed move backwards so as not to scare queen. Jump off bear and spam feed as you run after queen. Passive bear avoids it killing the queen if you get stung by worker. If you’re taming in redwoods, use bear to clear undergrowth a good distance around hive. It will make it easy to follow queen. I’ve lost em a few times as they disappear amongst the bushes.
Break nest with bear and then tame the queen while following with bear
Not all hives contain bees! Check them with a rifle bullet or two before breaking it and wasting your ammo.
If you want many bees,go in redwoods.
I'm not sure if it works every time but I got the queen over open water and it auto tamed, I was prepared with rare flowers but didn't use any at all. Of course my Dimorphadon did the heavy lifting on the drones which allowed me to follow the queen.
Use raw mutton over rare flower. gives better taming effectivness and quicker to tame.
Just tried to tame a bee and there was no prompt to tame i had rare flower and kibble and still no prompt are bees no longer tameable
