Behavior

Several of these surround the Killer Bee Nest. They constantly fire radial bursts of Blue Hive Shots while tossing various bombs, and they frequently heal the Boss and all nearby Colonies for large amounts of health. They will occasionally fire multi-directional streams of colored orbs. At first, they will have a swarm of Nest Colony Guardians surrounding them that fire at nearby players. They will also spawn Small Worker Bees at a moderate pace. Once at 1/2 HP, they will turn invulnerable for a short time, spawn in a large group of Nest Colony Guardians, and change their behavior. Now, they will fire spirals of Yellow Hive Shots and radial bursts of Red Hive Shots. When destroyed, the Colony will explode into a massive nova of various Hive Shots and spawn a swarm of Nest Colony Guardians.

Tips and Strategies

It is **heavily** advised to destroy most, if not all of the Nest Colonies before attacking the Killer Bee Nest. Not only do the Colonies heal the Nest for large amounts of health and summon minions that assist it, they will continue to lob bombs and fire on players during the chaotic fight with the Beehemoths, which can be detrimental to players. Be especially careful when they are nearing death: when killed, they will explode into a massive ring of various shots that can deal heavy damage to anyone standing too close to them. Back to top
