Description[]

The Hive is a faction that operates within large trees known as Greathives. An example of these is the relatively new Greathive Aratel, which is located in the upper north of Aratel Island. It can only be accessed through washing your face in the Lightkeeper Temple before using the shrine teleporter.

The Hive was founded by the ancestors of the Vesperians and Ganymedes. They are ruled by an overarching Greatlord who delegates the management of each Greathive to their respective Hivelords. Statues of them have been built in honor at the entrance of The Lordsgrove to commemorate their efforts in creating and advancing the Hive.

The Hive uses an unobtainable attunement known as Lifeweave, which allows them to transfer life energy for a variety of applications, such as creating organic technology in the form of Hive Constructs, and for being used to power devices, such as the teleporting fountains in the East Luminant. In addition to that, Kaab, the shipwright of Greathive Aratel states that he is able to "Lifeweave modifications" onto ship vessels. While they are extremely far behind in "conventional" technology, their ability to tap into the biotech niche allows them to compete with other factions.

The Hive are ruled by a Greatlord, who delegates the management of each individual Greathive to a Hivelord.

They frequently get into battles with The Kingdom of Etrea, who attempt to steal their Lifeweaving artifacts for unknown reasons.

Reputation[]

As with all other groups in the game, having too low of a reputation with the Hive will have multiple adverse effects. The Antiquarian, Blacksmith and all Store NPCs will refuse to trade with you if the Hive considers you an enemy. As per any other guard, Hive Guards will attack you on sight below a certain Reputation. In addition to that, Hive Adjudicators and Constructs will also spawn and attack you if your reputation with the Hive proceeds to worsen.

To restore your reputation with the Hive, head to The Lordsgrove behind the huge gate in Starswept Valley. You can only get through the gate by washing your face in the Lightkeeper Temple. After that, you can get through the door to The Lordsgrove, as you traverse through The Lordsgrove, you encounter a Ganymede named "Zirik", who is standing outside a small ruin. Talking to this NPC whilst your Reputation with the Hive is favourable will not result in anything. However, if you speak to him whilst you are considered an Enemy of the Hive, he informs you that "your name has spread quickly among the trees". After that, he also mentions your name being a "good name" before implying that he could help.

In addition, helping Hive Guards in the following events will allow you to increase your reputation with the Hive:
