Bee Keeper



The Bee Keeper is a pre-Hardmode broadsword that has a 33% chance to drop from the Queen Bee. Upon attacking an enemy, it summons friendly Bees (1-3 / bees each hit), and has a 90% chance of inflicting the Confused debuff on the struck enemy.

It is capable of autoswing.

Tips

 * Using the Bee Keeper on the Eater of Worlds and The Destroyer will release many bees if it moves right through the sword's swinging area.
 * The Bee Keeper can be useful even in Hardmode because of its ability to cause Confusion and deal decent damage at the same time, especially with the bees.
 * The Bees are very helpful for crowd control, as they can not only finish off enemies damaged by the sword, but hurt or kill any other enemies in the vicinity.

Trivia

 * The Bee Keeper is the only pre-Hardmode weapon that is capable of inflicting the Confused debuff.
 * The Bee Keeper's name is based off of real beekeepers, who are responsible for collecting honey from the hives.
 * Despite the item Tooltip stating the sword has a small chance of causing confusion, it has a 90% chance to do so. This is most likely a mistake.
 * The Bee Keeper's Confused effect strangely works on other players, despite most such debuffs normally being disabled in PvP.
