Bee armor
Bee armor is an armor set which offers minion boosts. It is one of 3 minion-boosting armors available prior to Hardmode. Wearing the full set grants
- 23% increased minion damage
- Increases the wearer's minion capacity by 2 (to a total of 3).
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 16-29 each time; crafting the entire set therefore requires defeating Queen Bee twice.
