SenL Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm having trouble with killer bees:1) They spawn 6 or 8+ at once2) The killer bee hives are usually close to each other making kiting extremely hard What are their weaknesses?

rezecib Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 @SenL, Lureplants, Abigail, Clockwork Rook, giants. Treeguards, notably, lose horribly to bees. Teaming up on killer beehives is also quite viable. One person lures out the bees, the other person wrecks the hives while the bees chase the other person.

GalloViking Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Lureplants = win. Eyeplants spawned from them will just one shot bees.

grayson773 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 If you set one Killer bee on fire? Do they all catch fire? Because that would then be pretty viable..

Asparagus Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 firestaff... but it will reduce the whole hive to ashes... probably just do what they say ^ Beekeeper hat and a log suit and bug net Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/49980-killer-bees-how-to-combat-them/#findComment-607710 Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltychipmunk Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 really all you need is the bee hat and a violent tendancy. 8 may sound like alot but you can ususally 2 shot bees if you have the right weapons and 8 low moving bees is an easy kite job , after you murder the first 8 , spam on the 2 -3 that will spawn while you murder the hive . rinse repeat. same is true for multiple hives . kite kill mop up the survivors.

Pyromailmann Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 My advice is make some bee hats, befriend some pigs, give them the bee hats, and then go on a killer bee assult taking out their hives.

ailailou Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Lureplants = win. Eyeplants spawned from them will just one shot bees.Pretty much this. Just plant the eyeplants near the hives, wait for the eyes to spawn, let them kill the killerbees and go straight for the beehives and chop 'em to pieces. Though on a personal note I like to keep the killerbees biome untouched.

GalloViking Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I also have a "special" tactic with blow darts. Make two blow darts, shot the beehive ONCE. Run away, wait for angry bees to go back in the hive. Then shot it again. Beehive will be destroyed and bees won't spawn.

Zillvr Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I have one method but its usefulness depends on your capabilities and/or needs. If there is a Kfant that I can't deal with yet (because of lag to be able to kite it properly or lack of armor/weapons) I scare the Kfant towards a specific Killer Bee nest to distract all the nearby bees and I could just go in and mess up any of the empty Killer Bee Nests to get the honey and honeycombs. Kfants are pretty sturdy and can last a long while depending on the number of bees currently attacking it. If the Kfant survives, you'd be left with some stingers and if you're lucky, some extra honey from the dead killer bees. Note: I call Koalefants as Kfants, cause it's easier to type that out in chat, in-game than Koalefant.

Zillvr Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 This may be off topic but I love your signature @ailailou. Haha, nice one!Not to be a buzzkill though, griefing is misspelled. Just thought you should know. Unless that was intentional, forget I ever mentioned it.
