Tarantula Hawk
The Tarantula Hawk is a Legendary pet introduced in the Friendship Update (1.06.0). It has 28,000 hunger and is obtained from the Anti Bee Egg, available for 149 Robux in the Limited Time Shop or crafted at the Cosmetics Shop (1 Bee Egg + 25 materials). It’s a superior version of the Wasp with enhanced traits.
Abilities
• Wasp Pollinator: Every 25 minutes, flies to a nearby fruit and applies the Pollinated mutation, increasing its value.
• Tarantula Stinger: Every 5 minutes, stings a random pet, advancing its ability cooldown by 80 seconds.
• Superior to the Wasp, with a shorter pollination cooldown (25 vs. 30 minutes) and sting cooldown (5 vs. 10 minutes), and a stronger cooldown reduction (80 vs. 60 seconds).
Best Usage Strategy
The Tarantula Hawk is ideal for players focusing on pollination and pet synergy. Its pollination trait (every 25 minutes) applies the Pollinated mutation, boosting fruit value, while its sting (every 5 minutes) reduces another pet’s ability cooldown by 80 seconds, enhancing team efficiency. Pair it with pets like the Peacock or Moth to maximize ability triggers. Prioritize aging it to improve trait effectiveness, and use it in gardens with high fruit density to leverage pollination.
