Uzurik is actually my friendly neighbour who taught me the trick and even gave me some free larvas, kudos to him :>Uzurik wrote:As Dullah has already written, you can pillage a hive yourself, without any help. First you need to look at the hive, if another swarm of bees flies next to it - this hive will not work. You need one where the bees wind only around him. Usually, I begin to rob a hive, if the bees fly out of there and a picture of the attack appears, I run to the water and give up trying with this hive, moving on to the next one. In a random way, there is always a hive, from which the bees will not fly out, and you will quietly take the larvae. In this case, the attack animation will not appear.

Re: Bee Larvae. HELP!
as a hermit i was pretty resigned to the fate of not having a mine hole in this world, but maybe there is hope

As a data point: I just raided a hive with 19 STR 38 AGI 30 UA character, legit combat with the swarm emerging - no wounds.

You mean one of them emerging and then it stops? Because that wouldn't work for most haha.Granger wrote:As a data point: I just raided a hive with 19 STR 38 AGI 30 UA character, legit combat with the swarm emerging - no wounds.

I went there, started to raid and one swarm emerged that I dispatched, raided again and looted 6 Bee Larvae.Headchef wrote:You mean one of them emerging and then it stops?

Maybe these where it didn't work re-test, might have been stealth-fixed.

Re: Bee Larvae. HELP!
Bee hives are busted
Went out with 3 characters, attempted to raid around 6 hives, all had a ton of bees
Successfully raided 1 of the hives without 8+ bees attacking us and got literally nothing for it. Zero loot.

Re: Bee Larvae. HELP!
that seems so obvious nowdullah wrote:Just a quick tip.
Some wild beehives are actually empty of any bees.
As a solo hermit :
- try to raid a beehive, preferably near shallow water, or with a horse.
- if bees spawn, just run to shallow water / run away
- if no bees spawn, profit

Re: Bee Larvae. HELP!
Yeah wild beehives are stupidly tough to raid. Would be alright but beeskeps need those damn larvaes now...
