New Worker Bees dropping Decorative Wax

Dragonnord · June 5

Just as an FYI, there are new Worker Bees that have a chance to drop Decorative Wax.

So if you step into one of these little friends, kindly and softly harvest it for a chance of this nice material.

Oh this made me laugh....

ZoS introduces sustainability measures to help reducee the planets energy usage.....

AND in the same update they add Bee's that you can harvest(basically kill) for their goodies.

Somewhat ironic!! 🤣

Almost all flying harvestables can give wax if they don’t have an alchemy reagent of their own (Butterfly Wing, Torchbug Thorax).

The chances are fairly low. Events that increase resources give a chance to get two wax, since they provide another roll for it.

What would Mirri say?

Another thread (I forget which) said harvesting bees was added to Mirri's negative rapport actions.

I tend to agree with Mirri on this.

Well that's a sentence I never thought I'd say/type! 🙂

Leave the poor Honey Bees alone.

If it's a Wasp though burn them all and send them to Dagon.

So Dagon can infuse them with his power and send them back?

Do you WANT murder wasps? Because that's how you get murder wasps.

Pretty sure we’ve got those already, they’re all over Craglorn and some of the other base game zones.

Yeah, you can do that if your moral compass points straight down. 🐝

I normally avoid killing them (same goes for butterflies, torchbugs and those baby netches), but why would it be worse than killing other animals? Fishing? All those endeavours where you have to "kill x wild or domestic animals"? I think there's even an achievement in the base game where you have to kill sheep?

There's also a memento you can use to blow up chickens! You can send them flying off like a rocket firework. Bakaw!!!!

Nice to know!

I normally leave harmless creatures alone, but…who doesn’t need more decorative wax for furnishings?

I guess that answers the question "Did you bring enough for the whole class?"

Hey maybe they could make an insect that drops mundane runes.
