Health

3,400 (5,200 in Expert)

Summon

Abeemination / Larva

Arena

Bee Hive or open Jungle

Strategy

• Fight inside the hive using the natural honey for the honey regen bonus, but clear space to move.
• Her charge attack is telegraphed — grapple away and shoot the bee swarm with a bow or Bee Gun.
• Beware the enraged state outside the Jungle: she moves far faster, so fight her at home.

Drops

• Bee Gun and Bee Keeper sword — strong early ranged/melee.
• Honey Comb (honey heal on hit), Beenades, Stingers.
• A pet ... and the Queen Bee Mask.
