How ARK players tame and knock out the Giant Bee: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

Easiest and earliest way to break the hive is to get a pteranodon with decent stamina. Use the screw attack on the hive and fly away to despawn the bees, doesn't take very many hits

After taming cryopod the bee without picking it up. Once you pick it up you won't be able to transfer it as a bee hive. Cryopod the bee to ensure transfer.

Taming with anything other then kibble is just a bad idea

-3 points6 years oldReport

Always spawns at level one, but NEVER TAKE ONE KIBBLE. I once tried to tame one with only one kibble, and I was all the way across the map, so I had to use the dotame command, since I think I accidentally hit it,or hitting drones decreases progress.

Lead dinos in with its honey. Watch out for the drones though.

Hives have 5000 health, shoot them to break open. Queen is kbocked out inside. No clue how to get to her without getting stung to death.

I had a titanasaur one shot the nest than I just bug repellent and honey boom honey farm

I suggest you have a creature that can break the hive with ease sence bee drones will attack you if you attempt to destroy there hive you need bug repellent and best way to tame it is with rare flowers or raw prime meat also THE BUG REPELLENT IS NECESSARY OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT…

Capped at level 5, make a lot of honey, used around 6 rare flowers, quite an easy tame with ghillie suit and a Rex to kill her drones. Got 6 of them make a lot of honey! I recommend taming with two people.

Find a hive with a rock under it, then take a rex and break open the hive. The queen will drop and have fun taming.

-4 points9 years oldReport

Can not take with raw or cooked mutton! Hard to feed due to her floating up and down in the air. Worth the aggravation to get the honey!

-4 points9 years oldReport

You cannot transfer server with a hive in your inventory, cryo the bee and then transfer!

Tame - Pick up hive - Go to obelisk - Place hive - Demolish hive - Cryo bee - Transfer...

Will using the tent method for vultures work here?

-4 points8 years oldReport

When I tamed 1 with rare flowers I just got a tribe mate to kill the bees off me with a giga. (I think a rex would work just as well)

-4 points8 years oldReport

Get bronto and constantly smack the hive with bronto until broken jump off and walk slowly and try to avoid touching it. How i got 13 giant bee buds.

-4 points8 years oldReport

You can only feed the bee queen if her bees don't aggro on anything.

Genesis 2. Find beehives under rock bridges in Eden. Break hive with a Tek rifle. Fly up to Queen with kibble. Bring lots of health brew. Bug repellent doesnt work. Tek rifles and element can be picked up in drops. Easier with another player.

It does not take that little kibble use rare flowers if you are taming basic kibble does not work.

The Giant Bee builds its nest at the tops of Redwood trees. While it's not an easy task, a nest can be broken open and the queen can be tamed. Once tamed, she will generate honey as well as lay drone eggs.- archaeopteryx
