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.

The Island, Redwood forest.

Not every hive spawns a queen bee!

Just keep destroying them until one will spawn (I’m using a wyvern).

Then tame with rare flower while wearing ghillie and bug repellent.

Cover it with a tent after you crack it open then feed it. Easy peasy. No chasing required. Tents work for knocking out lymantria too.

Step 1:kill the bee hive (every hit or honey take makes giant bees come out and kill bee hive correctly or you will kill the bee you want to tame)

Step 2:feed rare flowers

Step 3:you have tamed the bee (when tamed all workers will be tamed)

Extra tip:if you want more then…

If it's agroo

You can't feed it it must de aggro so you can feed it

After you tamed a Bee Queen with kibble or flowers, you can take it with „E“ and get a Bee Hive.

Pro Tip:

You can also Cryo the Tamed Bee Queen and put it in your Base as Decoration :D

Bssss Bssss ...

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

If you are on Abberation taming these could be a bit easier because you can easily get rare flowers from the biome with ALOT of metal. Aka the blue biome.

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.

Barrel roll the hive with a pteranodon does a lot of damage and you don't have to use any ammo but be careful for the drones because they will knock you off your mount

So… I saw one near south zone 1 at that cliff, but it was a queen, is normal? Up=yes down=no

Gigas NO LONGER DAMAGE HIVES. People have complained about this for years without an official response, but I can confirm that Giga bites do not affect hives in any way. Actually kind of annoyed, it really doesn't make any sense.

PC players on Lost Island- I’ve read that finding queens can be nearly impossible but I’ve consistently found queens each time I bust a hive in a specific easy to find location so thought I’d share.

1. Go to redwoods castle (that island encircled by a river in the SE…

Get ghille and bug repellent and use a rocket to destroy the best in one hit also have a good melee weapon with you

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…

If you have a snow owl, use the thermal vision ability to see where the bee hives are.

Just bring a good trike and stand back and whistle attack target on the bee hive, the trike will kill any bees that come out, once it breaks whistle neutral so any bees that attack you will get killed then tame the queen

Once tamed you will be able to pick up the bee and it will add a hive to your inventory. You can then place it at your base. Keep in mind you will need to put rare flowers inside the beehive in order to keep it alive and producing honey.

Genesis. Found in the Bog on the giant tree dripping blue/green glowing sap. A blood stalker to climb up and building an enclosed trap around the hive does the trick.
