Not to be confused with the Hardmode, post-Golem ranged weapon Stynger.

Stingers are crafting materials which have a 66.67*2/3 (66.67%) / 100*1/1 (100%) chance to drop from Hornets, Moss Hornets and Spiked Jungle Slimes found in the Underground Jungle biome (Cavern). Stingers are used in most Jungle-themed crafting recipes.

Excluding the consumable items, crafting all items requires 55 / 33 / 42 Stingers.

Tips

• The second most profitable way to monetize excess Stingers (after Queen Bee farming) is to craft them into Flask of Poisons for a profit of 5 per Stinger (requires one additional Bottled Water) / 1 per Stinger (requires one additional Bottled Water per five Stingers).
