The Hive-Five being used against Skeletons. Note the homing bees.

The Hive-Five is a pre-Hardmode yoyo. Upon enemy hits, it has a 1/3 (33.33%) chance of summoning a homing Bee projectile. The Bee projectile deals 50% of the weapon's damage (12 base damage),[1] has a 1/2 (50%) chance to deal 1 extra damage, can pierce enemies or bounce off blocks up to 3 times, and lasts for 10 seconds.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance.

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 value of [math]\displaystyle{ 0.5+1.1\times\mathit{Weapon\ knockback} }[/math] (4.625 (Average) base knockback), can pierce enemies or bounce off blocks up to 4 times, fly faster, and last for 11 seconds. Both types of projectiles will dissipate immediately on contact with water or lava.[2]
