About

A Bee Skep icon.png Bee Skep is a structure used generally used in the production of Honey icon.png Honey, Royal Jelly icon.png Royal Jelly, or to pollinate Fruit Tree icon.png Fruit Trees. A Bee Skep can NOT be Salvage icon.png Salvaged.

How to Pollinate Fruit

  1. Place 1x Queen Bee icon.png Queen Bee and 6 to 10x Drone Bee icon.png Drone Bees in a Bee Skep icon.png Bee Skep.
  2. Every other day open your Bee Skep and remove any Delphic Bee icon.png Delphic Bees additional or Queen Bees. Add more Drone Bees if you fall below 6.
  3. Bees will occasionally die, this is normal, add more Drone Bees if you fall below 6.
  4. Slowly your Bee Keep will fill with Worker Bees.
  5. Once your Worker Bees reach 60,000, or at any time before, you may remove all your Bees.
  6. Each Everbloom Fruit Tree icon.png Fruit Trees within your Bee's Skep range will blossom and riped by chance.
  7. Each time a Fruit Tree ripens it gain up to 10% of the Purity difference between the Fruit Tree and your Bee Skep. This gain is reduced if you have less than 60k Worker Bees.

CAUTION: Opening a a Bee Skep will cause you to get stung. The severity of the sting is proportionate to the number of Worker Bees in the Bee Skep; generally between 5-15 Blood damage.

Fruit Purity

Each Everbloom icon.png Everbloom that a Fruit Tree icon.png Fruit Tree ripes with a Bee Skep icon.png Bee Skep in range, will cause your Fruit Tree to gain 10% of the difference between the Fruit Tree's Purity and the Purity of Bee Skep that pollinates it, multiplied by the percent fill of your 60,000 Worker Bees. For instance, if your Fruit Tree is at 0% Purity and your Bee Skep at 90% filled with 30k Worker Bees your Fruit Tree will gain 4.5% (90% x 50% (60k/30k). The Purity of a Bee Skep is equal to the average Purity of the Hay icon.png Hay used in it's

How to Make Honey

  1. Place 1x Queen Bee icon.png Queen Bee and 6 to 10x Drone Bee icon.png Drone Bees in a Bee Skep icon.png Bee Skep.
  2. Every other day open your Bee Skep and remove any Delphic Bee icon.png Delphic Bees additional or Queen Bees.
  3. Bees will occasionally die, this is normal, add more Drone Bees if you fall below 6.
  4. Slowly your Bee Keep will fill with Honey.
  5. Once your Honey bar reaches 100, or at any time before, you may remove all your Bees.
  6. Destroy icon.png Destroy your Bee Skep.
  7. Right-click on your broken Bee Skep and select "Extract Honey" to gather 1-20x Honeycomb icon.png Honeycomb in proportion to how full you got your Honey bar.

CAUTION: Opening a Bee Skep will cause you to get stung. The severity of the sting is proportionate to the number of Worker Bees in the Bee Skep; generally between 5-15 Blood damage.

Royal Jelly

Whenever a Queen Bee icon.png Queen Bee would be spawned inside a working Bee Skep icon.png Bee Skep a Royal Jelly icon.png Royal Jelly is also spawned. While sometimes these newly spawned Queen Bees will fly away, they will leave the Royal Jelly. Queen Bees spawn by chance.
