How to Get Honey

Tame Hornet

HornetHornet HoneyHoney

In the forest to the right of RIgbarth, you can tame a Hornet so you can produce honey daily. Its a great early game monster because Honey has a high selling price.

These monsters may also drop their items if you defeat them or use your Spell Seal on them.

Increase Friendship Level to Improve Drops

Give Items to Monster

Once you tamed one or two Hornets, consider giving the items they dropped to them. This will increase their Friendship Level with you. Once its high enough, it will start producing higher quality Honey.
