Beenades being used to attack Target Dummies and a Skeleton. Note the four groups of bees, and how they home in on the Skeleton.

The Beenade is a consumable ranged weapon that acts similarly to a regular Grenade when thrown but releases 15–24 friendly bee projectiles upon detonating after 3 seconds. These bee projectiles deal 100% of the Beenade's damage (12 base damage) per hit[1] and have a 1/2 (50%) chance to deal 1 extra damage, but cannot inflict critical hits. The bee projectiles will home in on nearby enemies before dissipating after a 10-second duration, upon piercing enemies or ricocheting off solid blocks a total of 3 times, or immediately upon contact with water or lava.

Beenades have a 3/4 (75%) / 100% chance of being dropped by the Queen Bee in stacks of 10–30 (10–29), and can also be crafted from Grenades and Bee Wax.

Notes

  • With the Hive Pack equipped, all Bee projectiles have a 1/2 (50%) chance to be converted into Giant Bee projectiles, which always deal 1–3 extra damage, have a knockback of 0.5 (Extremely weak), can pierce enemies or ricochet off solid blocks 4 times in total, fly noticeably faster, and last 11 seconds. Both kinds of bee projectiles will dissipate immediately on contact with water or lava.[2]
  • Explosions created by Beenades will receive ranged damage bonuses, ranged critical strike bonuses, and Frostbite from Frost armor. However, the Bee projectiles only receive ranged damage bonuses. They do not receive Frostbite and cannot critically strike.[3]
  • Beenades that explode in honey can spawn Bee projectiles, but they will move much more slowly while submerged.
  • Beenades that explode in water or lava cannot spawn bees.
  • Like all homing weapons, bees spawned from Beenades do not home in on players in PvP.

Tips

  • Beenades are perhaps best used in large, open spaces. In tight spaces, bees bounce off surfaces more often, thereby reducing their potential of piercing enemies to deal more damage.

Trivia

  • Beenade is a portmanteau of bee and grenade.
