Wispy Bees are one of the bees from the Thaumic Branch. Wispy Bees produce Silky Combs (and, by extension, Silk Wisps) at a rate which is about 50% faster than that of Tropical Bees and at about the same rate as the rare and season-dependent Leporine Bee. However, it requires quite a bit more work to acquire, requiring mid- to high-tier bees in its resultant mutation. They also produce Silk Wisps directly as a specialty product. Their effect, Wispy, spawns Wisps near the Apiary or Alveary in which they reside. This can pose a great danger to the owners of the bee, but it also allows for farming of decent-quality items for turning into Essentia. It is currently unknown whether the spawning of Wisps by these bees disperses the Flux in nearby Nodes.

Requirements

Pure Wispy Bees require a Normal Climate and Normal Humidity to start working, and at least one Magic Flower, either a Shimmerleaf or Cinderpearl nearby. Like all species, their traits can be modified through Bee Breeding.

Production

Wispy Bees produce Silky Combs every 1.7 minutes (22% rate). Their specialty Silk Wisp is made every 57.2 seconds (40% rate) on average. The combs result in Silky Propolis and Honey Drops when centrifuged.
