Bee taming and honey collection have been consistent features in previous ARK titles, and ARK Survival Ascended<\/a> follows suit. Bees and the resulting honey serve various purposes in the game, making it crucial to know how to acquire them.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re eager to acquire bees and their sweet honey in the game, look no further. The following guide will detail how bee taming and honey farming work in ARK Survival Ascended.<\/span><\/p>\n

How To Tame Bees in ARK Survival Ascended<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

To initiate the bee-taming process in ARK Survival Ascended, comprehensive preparation is vital. Obtain bug repellent, accessible at level 16 and crafted from Citronal, narcotic, pelt, and rock carrot. <\/span><\/p>\n

Optionally, bug spray may be discovered in supply drops. Taming food choices include rare flowers or simple kibble. Equip medical brews for potential stings and carry cooked meat for healing. For a stealthy approach, consider donning Ghillie<\/a> attire to reduce visibility to worker bees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once adequately prepared, the quest for loose bees can commence. These may be found in various locations, including around the green obelisk, along left-hand side cliffs, near waterfalls, and within canyons. Utilize bug spray to approach the queen, offering either rare flowers or simple kibble for taming. <\/span><\/p>\n

Remain vigilant for stings, manage debuffs, and use the Taming Tracker<\/a> to monitor progress. After taming the queen, interact with her to collect (stored as a beehive in your inventory) and bring her back to your base.<\/span><\/p>\n

How To Farm Honey in ARK Survival Ascended<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Honey farming in ARK Survival Ascended involves a strategic approach to beehives. Once a hive is acquired, it can be placed on the ground, foundations, or other structures. To maintain bees and induce honey production, ensure rare flowers are kept in the hive’s inventory. Access the hive inventory while wearing Ghillie or using bug repellent to avoid stings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Honey, once obtained, proves to be a versatile resource with numerous applications in the game. It serves as a preferred taming food for specific creatures and can act as bait when thrown to attract and calm creatures in the vicinity. <\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, honey is a crucial ingredient for crafting extraordinary kibble and sweet vegetable cake, both valuable items in the ARK Survival Ascended world. Its versatility extends to being premium bait for fishing<\/a>, effective on both CICS and saber-tooth salmon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mastering the art of honey farming not only ensures a steady supply but unlocks various possibilities for survival and advancement in the game. Now, you possess the knowledge of how to not only tame bees but also farm them for their extremely useful honey in ARK Survival Ascended.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
