Is it worth it to regularly farm BQ as Wanda in solo game?

[Duck986]

I mean, jellybeans are useless for her, you need a bundling wrap blueprint only once, and the only boss that kind of requires you to wear bee queen crown (and even it can be replaced with sanity food and Thulecite Crown) is Ancient Fuelweaver. Or is there also something I probably don't know about BQ?

Sure you can deconstruct a crown for 4 honeycombs, and probably this and Enlightenment Crown are the only boss items that are worth deconstructing (@ Klei fossils from fuelweaver drops plz), but you will get too many wraps sooner or later + you can also get 4 waxed papers from Klaus every winter.

I would say it depend on you and your need.

For me, no. Im on day 1000 in my current world and i killed her only once. I got the extra crown (that i barely need) with Klaus and that's it.

[Cheggf]

I don't think it's worth it to farm bq as anyone since I get hit infrequently enough to make a single kill's worth last approximately forever when combined with the health gain from hunger foods like honey or bacon and eggs. But I still do it anyways since it's a fun fight.

P.S. You can leave a crown and snurtle shell at the apss for a safe and easy afk sanity regen while you wait for the phase to change.

[Well-met]

No, even using the crown as armor sucks.

[ShadowDuelist]

Even for characters that can benefit from jellybeans, I rarely use them nowadays. Food is generally a much better healing (except maybe for Warly or Wormwood, but I don't play as any of them).
I used to keep the BQ crown as an all around helmet but since the terraria crossover the eye helmet is my main one for daily fights, and the BQ crown became a side tool just to recover sanity in the ruins or against some bosses.

Anyway, I'd say 1-2 times is probably enough for any non Wormwood or Warly.

I'm the exact opposite i use jellybeans religiously, the best healing imo and if i don't have any on hand blue caps will suffice

I think jellybeans are the best intentional healing item but outside of boss fights I find their healing to be unnecessarily high, and the gradual health from just eating is more than enough as long as you're eating good food.

[Spino43]

For me, no. Jellybeans are useless for her, which is the main reason you want to farm bee queen in the first place.

You are better off using that time killing dragonfly, klaus or clearing ruins instead.

[Mr.Tarunio]

More beeswax don't hurt.

[Yuuko]

I'm with a few other posters - Even when I play Warly, who gets great benefit from the jellybeans, I typically kill her once and I'm done with it.  With Wanda its 100% one and done for me.  I only use the bq crown for its sanity reversal so I don't need more than 1 for much of the game, and Klaus likes to drop more.

Yep, was going to say, deconstructing bee queen crowns is the best way to get waxed fruit outside of having loot worlds.

same, mainly because i kill bee queen every time she respawns with my giant army of 1000000 warrior merms

[HeatAndRun]

The amount of bundling wraps is always not enough. So, why not?

I do this too!

Wurt + 250hp + marble armour + jellybeans means you can just tank an press f against all bosses. Merms are great at farming marble scrubs too.

For long lasting worlds that im not playing wurt much, i switch to winona, make some catapults and switch back to whoever (walter atm) and farm bq with catapults every 20days. Walters slowdown rounds boost the accuracy of catapults decreasing the time it takes them to kill her. You spend a purple gem but save 4 gems fueling the catapults. So its a net plus.

really? what do you do with all the jellybeans and crowns? I use them for freezing, overheating, starving it's still rare to use a beequen kills worth of beans in 1 year.

real wanda players only eat taffy made of royal jelly

for literally every situation that isn't some boss battle like fw, like i fr use jellybeans for EVERYTHING because of how many i have them, crown i use for fw

Fact: deconstruct crown for honeycomb

Fact: favorite dish is honey-based

Fact: maybe you don’t already have enough honeycombs for once-a-year harvesting in winter

Conclusion: maybe?

[Evelo]

I farm Beequeen for the Crown. I like getting more Honeycombs by disassembling the Crown.
