The Honeyday Candles are a Beesmas-exclusive machine which is unlocked after completing Gifted Riley Bee's Honeyday Candles quest.
When activated, 3 random level 10 red bees are summoned for 30 minutes, and a random wax is spawned. They have a cooldown of 4 hours, and are located next to the Red HQ's interior ladder.
The chances for each wax are as follows:
Wax | Chance |
---|---|
3 Soft Waxes | 81.3% (1/1.23) |
3 Hard Waxes | 16.3% (1/~6) |
3 Swirled Waxes | 1.63% (1/~61) |
3 Caustic Waxes | 0.81% (1/~123) |
When a player stands on top of the pad before completing the quest, a red text box appears on the top of the screen reading: The red bees are having trouble lighting the candles...
Bees summoned by the Honeyday Candles can collect pollen, attack mobs, and convert honey for the player. They can also convert pollen at the hive now, using a random bee's hive slot.
The Honeyday Candles summon 3 bees from the following pool, each with increasing rarity:
Trivia[]
- A Hard Wax token used to be found hidden behind the candles.
- These are one of the four machines that grants the player temporary bees, the others being Onett's Lid Art, Gummy Beacon, and the Honey Wreath (after completing Honey Bee's Beesmas quest).
- There is a glitch when the player leaves, the bees generated would stay in place until they despawned.
- Even when the player joins the same server, the bees will not despawn.
- They were introduced in the Beesmas 2020 event and returned in all Beesmas updates since.
- During Beesmas 2020, using these candles were one of the two only ways of getting Swirled Waxes, the other way is by giving Gifted Riley Bee a Present during that same event.
- For every Beesmas event succeeding Beesmas 2020, the Honeyday Candles would no longer guarantee a Swirled Wax.
- This is the only machine that can summon bees who produce flames.
- Loot Luck does not affect Honeyday Candles drops.
- Summoned bees don't have to rest, even if you die.
