Game plan

Bea fires a single long-range bee with a fast reload. When it hits, her next shot is supercharged and deals very high damage. Her Super launches a wave of drones that damage and slow enemies. She is a sniper who rewards hitting two shots in a row.

1. Land a normal shot first, then fire the supercharged one quickly. The combo is where her damage comes from.
2. Use your Super to slow enemies before taking a supercharged shot. Slowed targets are easy to hit.
3. Keep your distance. Bea has low health and only one ammo.
