Bee armor is an armor set that offers Minion boosts. It is the only minion-boost gear available prior to Hardmode. Wearing the full set increases the wearer's minion capacity by 2 (to a total of 3), along with granting +23% minion damage (13% from individual pieces and a 10% set bonus).

Crafting all pieces requires a total of 30 Bee Wax, which is a 100% drop from the Queen Bee boss. Bee Wax drops in stacks of 16-26 each time; crafting the entire set therefore requires defeating Queen Bee 2 times.
