Queen Bee

The Queen Bee can be found only in the Underground Jungle, inside a Hornet's Nest. While breaking your way into the Hornet's Nest, one could encounter Honey, which buffs health regeneration, or bees, which attack the player. In the center of the Hornet's Nest is a special item. Breaking this item Spawns the Queen Bee. She has a decent amount of health, and has three methods of attack.

The first method is to fly repeatedly back and forth, at the player's height, damaging them. wearing full Crimson Armor, a player takes approximately 18 damage per hit. this time is the best one to counterattack the Queen bee with melee weapons.

The second method is her hovering just out of melee range of the player, firing bees at them. This is where multi-hit, piercing magic, such as Water Bolt or Skull Book, or piercing ranged attacks, such as meteor shot, are best against the Queen bee. the bees don't do much damage, but they can push the player around if they don't have a Cobalt or Obsidian shield. The bees can be destroyed, and have a chance of dropping a heart or a star.

The third method is her most dangerous, situationally. Se hovers out of reach, moving back and forth, rapid firing poisoned stingers at the player with high accuracy. If a player has a Bezoar, this stage does the least amount of damage. If a player lacks a Bezoar, they are likley to be poisoned for most, if not all, of the fight.

Fighting the Queen bee isn't the hardest accomplishment, with the right gear, but if one's not expecting it, or, indeed, isn't prepared, it can be harder than the Eater of Worlds or Cthulu's Brain. The hardest part about the Queen fight is the location, as the underground jungle is also full of many things that poison a player, or hit through walls.
