Well I could use some hint how to fight the queen bee, like what's its expert attack?
Well, I haven't fought her on Expert yet...
What you do is CAREFULLY make a small arena with platforms and a campfire in the hive. The honey will provide a really nice health regen boost.
The reason I say carefully is because there's a larva in there that can be destroyed really easily- any attack will destroy it and summon the Queen.
QB doesn't have any phases, so you don't have to worry about that. However, in Expert mode, the alternations and all that happen MUCH quicker on low health.
She'll always open up with 3 lateral charges. This is where the platforms come in. When she charges, either go up or down. Cloud in a Bottle is handy for this.
After that, she'll do one of two things:
1. Similar to Hornets, the Queen Bee will rapidly fire poisonous stingers at the player. During this pattern, she will alternate between hovering above the player, and swooping at them. Weave left and right to avoid them.
2. She will spawn bees while hovering, which attack the player. Prior to 1.3, platforms would stop bees, but not anymore. Use your Falcon Blade to take them out as they come in, or use your Minishark to keep a hail of fire on them and QB. She doesn't move when firing bees, making her an easy target.
QB will usually try and chain these together. After some time, she'll move back to charging, indicated by going downwards and to one side.
This pretty much repeats until you've killed her.
Oh and I borrowed a bit from terraria wiki.
Heh. As funny as the idea of the Slap Hand is, it's pretty useful...
If you don't want ANYTHING coming near you, you should use it.
