Dont be like me and spend the time to knock it out to realize its a passive tame

Nobody has said it yet so here it is

You need to put the honey into your hot bar inorder to throw it

It's just like activating everything else you will not eat it in the hot bar

Only way I’ve found to tame is honey. Put honey in your last slot of hot bar and use it like you were trying to eat it but only when it digs and you have to be aiming at the hole.

You can craft prim fishing rods and equip your honey to them to stop the honey from spoiling while you search for rats to tame. Simply unequip honey from the rod to use it.

When they go under the earth, throw honey at them!

Taming:

Step 1- get honey, 5 is good unless it’s a super high level.

Step 2- clear out all predators.

Step 3- put the honey in your hot bar.

Step 4- follow the Rollrat until it digs a hole. DO NOT TOUCH ANY GEMS IT DIGS UP!! That will aggro it and you will lose taming.

Step 5- immediately run on top of the hole, look down and throw the honey. The Rollrat will return and eat the honey.

Step 6- repeat until tamed😁

It may not make a difference...but to whom it may concern; you dont have to put the honey in your last slot...it can be in any slot. This might help those, who like me, have a broken right d-pad (xbox).

High level RR, low level survivor Taming instructions;Put sleeping bags near-ish bee hive, take off armor, collect honey and die, rinse n repeat until you have enough (2 collections per hive every 15 mins) Put honey on hot bar and eat it. It will throw a honey comb. When rat burrows, throw this at the mound. -Bob

They’re comparatively easy to tame, all you need is ten honey for a low to mid level one. ‘Honey’ is not as daunting to acquire as it’s often made out, you can simply walk up to a nest (which are often located on the ground in Aberration) and take 5 honey directly from the nest, the negative side is you will be attacked by bees and will almost certainly die (if they can kill a Tek survivor then they can kill you) your only saving Grace with this ‘wild’ beekeeping is that you can use Ghillie armour and a dire bear (that’s what the Tek player failed to do). Once you get the honey all you need to do is throw the honey at the role rat hole etc.

Best to incase them in billboards and kill everything around it as they like to wander and other herbivores like to snatch the honey you drop
