So I am very new to Ark (only 2 weeks) and got to a point where I needed honey and I happen to live in a treehouse in the redwoods... I did not spend any points to learn ghillie suit so I had to come up with a way to get a queen without it... using crossbow I shot at various hives until I found one where bees came out... I made about a dozen pillars and ceilings and ladders and made a simple "scaffold" to get up to the hive... once I got up there I added a few ceilings and some window walls and basically "boxed" around the hive... using crossbow I shot through the open window at the hive until the hive broke and the queen came out... she was trapped and surprisingly she couldn't fly out the window so I just stood there and fed her a few rare flowers until tamed.... didn't get any drones... didn't get stung... didn't have to chase queen all over creation.... worked like a charm.

There are a few low-placed hives on the Island too, just not in the redwoods. They're in odd places like lying in the grass in a boulder field in the central highlands, and on the side of a ledge above water near the green obelisk. I'm sure there are others, but I've already found those two. Easy reach, easy tame.

My favorite base spot on the island is the bug cliff between blacksands and the redwoods I start with a tree platform that lowers itself through a massive ramp all the way to the cliff on the other side then I gate it off and use it as my main base almost indefinitely. It's in the middle of everything, I always end up with an ovis or 5 because if the black sands and I'm near the best rex spawning so I get a good selection of the levels and tames. Only real draw back is I can't start my base till tree platform until then I live on a raft sailing the edges hunting for decent tames.

As usual, another great and helpful Basics video. My favorite place to gather honey is along the south shore of the Island near an area called the Footpaw (76.4, 38.1 general co-ordinates). There are layered rock cliffs along the west side of the small cove there. I can usually find 5-7 hives along the cliffs most of which are accessible with minimal climbing.

Level 20 you can craft cryopods. And unless I'm wrong the Whistle call grapple hook method still works to tame queztals. It's possible on a pteranadon but use an argy. A good easy trap to use is 5 stone dino gates 1 door at the entrance and a slightly off center pillar in the last gate. Slightly space the gates. It builds what is known as a birdcage. You can also do it with 4 gateways 12 pillars 1 reinforced door and ceilings placed on the pillars that are 3 high. If you're having trouble following your tame whistle attack target and then passive when needed
