It is a source of Potions of Dexterity, Bottled Honey, and two untiered items, the Honey Scepter and the Orb of Sweet Demise. Entrances to The Hive are dropped from Warrior Bees, an enemy found in midlands.

Tips and Strategies

Strategies: Be helpful and edit the article, would ya?
Note: These tips are general tips for all classes, and all players. Also, if you have lots of defense, some tips may not apply.

The hive is a low-level dungeon that is both easy, but can also pack quite a challenge to new players. Most enemies deal a little amount of damage, but can inflict painstaking debuffs.

Honey: Honey will not hurt you, however it acts like quick sand in a tomb - the longer you stay in this substance, the more it slows you down. If you stay long enough, you will stuck there, moving with extremely low speed, which might be very deadly with enemies are around you. Avoid staying in honey for a long time, and don’t step there during the boss fight! The dungeon has a number of circular rooms (It is possible that there are exactly 6 rooms will boss, but this cannot be confirmed yet), which are all packed into each other, making it actually possible for two rooms to fuse together, in one case the spawn room was fused to the boss room, eliminating the pain of clearing the dungeon.

An experienced player with high defense can efficiently farm this dungeon for dexterity potions and feed power (the UT items have 450).

It seems like some enemies are respawning in rooms, however spawn rate is not constant and probably depends on curcumstances (needs more testing):

  • Small bees spawn from Mini Hives and sometimes out of nowhere.
  • Fat Bees spawn from Maggots after 10 seconds, so make sure to completely clear rooms. If you miss a few maggots, they may come back to hurt you…as Fat Bees.
  • Angry Fat Bees spawn from Fat Bees (not a 100% chance) and sometimes out of nowhere.
  • Maggot eggs spaawn from the boss.
  • Once the dungeon is fully cleared, all enemies stop respawning.

Sources of xp: all enemies except small bees and maggots. If you want more xp, don’t shoot maggots until they transform into Fat Bees.
