Beenade

Beenades are a type of explosive dropped by the Queen Bee boss. They act similarly to the Grenade, though do not cause friendly-fire damage. Upon exploding, a swarm of Bees are released which will home in upon nearby enemies. Bees will home in on new targets if their current target is killed and there are still bees left in the swarm. Otherwise, they will fly of in a straight line. Each bee can attack or bounce off a surface a combined number of 3 times. (This may seem like more due to the sheer number of bees releases with one Beenade and rapid attacks on one target: they will reach the maximum hits per second limit.) Each bee will hit for the same damage listed for the Beenade itself.

Beenades are ineffective in water and lava. Beenades thrown into either of these liquids (with sufficient depth) will not spawn bees. Bees instantly de-spawn on contact with water or lava. However, the bees will spawn correctly in honey. The bees will be slowed down until they leave the honey.

Tips
• Beenades would work well if you have a lucky coin because on the hardmode mobs they would only do around 1 damage so it would take hundreds of hits and drop many coins.
 * Beenades are perhaps best used in large, open spaces. While the lack of friendly-fire damage allows them to be used safely in enclosed spaces, the real damage is caused by the bee swarm. Tight spaces have a higher chance of having bees bouncing off surfaces, thereby reducing potential damage.
 * Effective against swarms of lightly armored mobs. Use against enemies with high defence may be counter-productive. This is due to the tendency of the bee swarm reaching the max hits/sec (as noted above). Maximum DPS may therefore be limited if other (more damaging) attacks are used in concert.
 * Beenades are useful for taking down the Wall of Flesh because they swarm the hungries, taking them out very quickly.
 * Beenades are exceptionally effective against certain bosses if one collects enough of them.
