Requirements

Pure Auric Bees require a Normal Climate and Normal Humidity to start working, and at least one Flower - any of the two vanilla flowers or any of the flowers added by ExtrabiomesXL. Like all species, their traits can be modified through Bee Breeding.

Production

Auric Bees produce Honey Combs every 15.3 minutes (10% rate). These combs result in Beeswax and Honey Drops when centrifuged. Auric Bees also produce vanilla Gold Nuggets as a specialty (16% rate), nine of which can be crafted into a Gold Ingot. Production times are an approximation based on the bee's base speed and the product's rarity. They do not reflect actual production time.
