Cursed Beehive

Cursed Beehives can be found in later worlds in Banjo-Tooie. From a distance they appear to be normal Beehives, bouncing up and down, but a closer look shows their fearsome red eyes. If Banjo and Kazooie try to approach one, the beehive will drop its sham and chase after them, starting off slow and accelerating to a speed which rivals Banjo's running speed and can make it hard to evade at a close distance. Cursed Beehives have a bit more vitality than the average enemy, taking two hits with a Forward Roll to kill, but are relatively large targets and are easy to hit with an attack like the Rat-a-tat Rap. When defeated, these killer hives will only surrender two honeycombs, but unlike normal Beehives, they can sometimes yield Skill Stop and Mystery Honeycombs if you use an Ice Egg and then Dragon Kazooie's fire breath on them.
