What is a giant bee used for? giant bee battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Taming a Dire Bear is your best option with the Giant Bee. First, break the hive, either with the bear or with a gun, then(with a a full set of Ghillie armor and Bug Repellant) walk up to it with Rarer Flowers in your last slot on your hotbar, press the prompted button(E on PC, triangle on PS4, and Y on X Box). After that, you can hold the same button when looking at the Giant Queen Bee, and have her turn into a Bee Hive. You can place this down at your base. The hive must have Rare Flowers in it or it will begin dying. Make sure whenever your enter the hives inventory that you are wearing a Ghillie Suit, otherwisse you will be stung repeatedly. After a while, you will obtain honey, which can be used in many recipes
RAGNAROK TIP: Type of bee: tamed, if you tamed this or forced tamed this MAKE YOUR BASE AT TYRANNOGON RARE FLOWERS SPAWN THERE, if your bee says get beehive hit the button you need to take it, if your beehive when placed at your base has rare flowers it is healthy and you probably know this but it needs rare flowers. Now please don't downvote and report me cause it says to downvote and report false information cause I am on switch so it might be different than how PC or mobile or Xbox is.
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.
