Stinger Necklace

The Stinger Necklace is a pre-Hardmode accessory that is obtainable after defeating the Queen Bee. This item combines the Shark Tooth Necklace and the Honey Comb accessories, giving the player 5 flat armor penetration as well as releasing 1-3 / bees when the wearer takes damage and  granting the Honey buff for 5 seconds.

Tips

 * This item can be used simultaneously with the Shark Tooth Necklace to ignore 10 defense, rather than 5, and even further with the Sharpening Station, increasing the total penetration to 22 on melee weapons. This bonus will also apply to weapons with their own inherent defense piercing, such as the Crystal Vile Shard or the Blade Staff.
