I cannot figure out what this is for. It doesn't start a quest, and the only entry for Rosaline Mildenhall has her location at Bridgeport, but she isn't there (or at least isn't there if you've done the quests in that area).

Comment by PomPomPop

After around 550 Flowing Honey kills while level 118, this finally dropped for me. There is a decent spawning point in the vicinity of 69.8, 69.4 for grinding these almost nonstop. Good luck!

PS: You need to do the Mildenhall quest chain before you start your grind.

Comment by ikkyuzenji

I got this on my first kill of some little neutral bees up on top of a mountain right next to where you start the Tortollan quest chain in Stormsong valley.

Comment by stym

This can also drop from Bubbling Mead

I dutifully killed Flowing Honey to get mine, and it dropped after about 60 kills. When on the daily quest to feed Bumbles, it dropped again from a Bubbling mead, maybe the 3rd one I killed for this quest.
There were no flowing honey around and that was a single mob, so I'm almost positive they can drop it.

Comment by RacerLicht

Getting too old for that brainless lifestealing farming stuff :)

One hour and no drop.

I stop here and get me a beer...
Not worth for me anymore. :)

Aho!

If you have this in your bags and are wondering what to do with it, or what it leads to, here is your answer:

This amulet drops from Enraged Swarmers, Bumbling Bees, Flowing Honeys and Bubbling Meads once you have completed the quest chain in Mildenhall Meadery, Stormsong. It is the first step to obtaining Bumbles as a companion pet.
The next step is to find Rosaline Mildenhall in Boralus and speak to her. Listen to her story and agree to bring a letter back to her kid, Ancel, who will then give you a quest called Bumbles the Bee.
Once that quest is completed, a new daily quest will be activated - Let's Bee Friends. Complete this daily 7 times to earn the Let's Bee Friends achievement and Bumbles will be yours.

Kill estimative: almost 300 mob kills (by counting only the gray item they usually drop plus I avoided killing other mobs).

Got no time estimative but I could say around 2h30.

Alliance only! Do not waste your time if you are Horde!

Comment by Devious05

Farmed for approx 40 minutes today, I had mine within 15 minutes (haven't updated addon to tell me kills sorry), my farming buddy had no luck.

Comment by Iceveiled

Looting this item kicks off a series of events that eventually leads to the 'Let's Bee Friends' achievement, which awards the battle pet 'Bumbles'.

Comment by Weasei

This also drops from Beehemoth up the hill from the Meadery. 1.5M hp so you'll want to group for that kill.

Comment by Tinibree

I kept an eye out for groups or started my own, that were doing Mead Some Help? to make it go faster, finally got the drop after not getting it for ages farming on my own.

Comment by wraithslayer

96 Bubbling Mead and 94 Flowing Honey later, and finally got the Annealed Honey Amulet off a Bubbling Mead. Was probably there for 2-3 hours, total over a couple days.

Comment by born2slip

Just rolling around Boralus and spam
/tar Rosaline
found her at
/way 57.97 65.83
Looks like she stuck somewhere in the textures, but I was able to talk with 'interact with target' keybind.

Comment by coldwinter18

Looted it today from Bubbling Mead

Comment by SneakerXZ

I recommend Gale's Rest (46, 32). It is highland of Stormsong Valley filled with Bumbling Bees and beautiful flowers with a beautiful view over the entire zone. It dropped for me after 346 kills, but the bees are always in groups of 3-4 with around 20k HPs, so you kill a lot of them fast. The spawning is not the fastest, but you can take a small break (a minute or two) after a single round (approximately 40 bees).

Comment by deszus

WSW from Millstone Hamlet, Stormsong Valley (23.5 70.5) Bumbling Bee ~40kill

Comment by Tutonik

Greetings Fellow Bee Keepers,
May I recommend the Bumble Bee an alternative for the coveted Annealed Honey Amulet. The drop rate is twice that of Flowing Honey and have 25k health.
I got my amulet in a couple of minutes farming. It took much longer to find the way up.
Fly (if you can) to the Seekers Vista flight path (The Jeweled Coast 40 36) north of Fort Daelin along the west coast of Stormsong Valley.
From there ride the path south to /way The Jeweled Coast 40.96 44.59 and east up the green "path". At /way Stormsong Valley 42 42.17 there is a fork, the main path goes right, you go LEFT up the bump follow the winding green to the top /way Galen's Rest 44.34, 36.83. You are there, where Bumble bees abound.
There is a another area in the SW corner of Stormsong Valley, unresearched by me. I recalled a lot hostiles in the area.

Comment by Melandroso

The "Mildenhall quest chain" that people here say you have to complete in order to get this item to drop starts with Mayhem at Mildenhall Meadery, which was available for tmy lvl 112 toon after having completed the entry quests for Stormsong Valley leading me to Brennadam with A Risky Ploy available.

Comment by ShadowPhoenx

Decided to grind for this on my 119 Druid to get XP and try to get this (2 birds 1 stone) which took about an hour (farming the Bumble Bees close to Seekers Vista FP). After it dropped, I realized already had this item on my main many months ago and hadn't realized what it was... Well maybe I can get 2 of them?

Comment by Mcitra

To even get this item to drop you have to do the questline starting with Mayhem at Mildenhall Meadery

If you are a horde player like me doing this on an alliance alt who have not done all the quests in the zone it will save you alot of headache grinding this item!

Comment by Huckleberri

Rosaline has five spawn points in Boralus.
Type Rosaline Mildenhall in the Wowhead search box to get to her page.
There are really good co-ordinates details of the spawn points by Eekwibble in the comments section.

Comment by Avataru

I'm beginning to think this is a once per account drop and I vendored it as a grey I didn't notice.

I've killed hundreds of Bubbling Mead, Flowing Honey, and Bumbling Bee...
Even discovered how many can be in a stack for Thick Hivewax and Parched Honeycomb...
I keep double checking the script "/script print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(50553))" and comes back true.

But no Annealed Honey Amulet.

Comment by Chronokatan

8.2 can confirm it still drops from the Bumbling Bees - took me about half an hour (500 kills) to get it on Gale's Rest.

Comment by Cambrius13

As of this date, I can confirm that the amulet still drops from the Bumble Bees atop Gale's Rest.

It took about forty-five minutes and cost the lives of an ecology-threatening number of bees. Like, I fear for Stormsong Valley farmlands.

Comment by kprouty

I can confirm that this still drops...I looted it while killing Beehemoth for a world quest.

Comment by Apoletta

Well, took a little over an hour and over 400 bees, but it finally dropped!

Comment by littlesabby

I must have really really good luck. got it on 2nd kill. (I usually have HORRIBLE luck)

Comment by Redwolfie7

alright, my personal experience...I killed enough bees to kill earth. well over 500 bees and nothing. switched over to killing the honey mobs in midenhall meadery and about 40 kills in it dropped for me. so if youre tired of killing the cute lil bees. kill the honey and booze at 70 69

Comment by rottenx51

Do the Mildenhall Meadery quest chain before farming it! Don't waste three hours of your life farming like I did.

Comment by cloud71

I can confirm as of 09/25/2019, it took me around 2 hours to get this drop. so keep grinding for it.

Comment by Zarasz

Farmed near warfang hold, for less than an hour until I got it. Us the macro below to ensure you have finished the quests required for it to drop for you.

Comment by Ezmaralda

Been farming for days, still hasn't dropped. Ready to quit WoW for real with this and the Brewfest Fail.

Comment by Zugetz

I fear I might have gotten this a long time ago and destroyed or sold it without realizing its value! Stupid me! Is there any way to check? Maybe a script?

Comment by Okonomiyaki

Spent 1 hour farming this from Bumbling Bees at Gale's Rest near Warfang Hold area of Stormsong Valley.

Comment by Vtkpwnz

Took me about 45 minutes to drop it from Bumbling Bee around /way 45 31 in Stormsong Valley. Wish you all good luck! :)

Comment by Arth

Thus far I have killed a total of 1200 flowing honey and bubbling mead (as counted by iridescent speck drops) over approximately 4 hours - no drop. I then switched to bumbling bees where I have killed roughly 600 (as counted by thick hivewax and parched honeycomb) with no drop.

I'll keep this updated on my progress.

---------

Update: I stuck to the bumbling bees on warfang hold (on map). Day after the post above I made a single pass and killed the roughly 40-50 bees currently spawned with no drop and moved on. Next day I received the amulet on the 2nd set of 3/4 bees killed.

Good luck everyone.

Comment by globalmenace

Am I correct to assume that the item is useless if I already have acquired the pet on another toon? (Rematch says I can collect a max. of 1 of the pet.)

Or is there any other point to do the quest chain on an alt again?

Comment by SteveSw

I had to kill between 400-500 bees to get an amulet. Which is bad luck, but not astonishingly so. Given the .3% drop rate someone mentioned elsewhere, here are the odds of finding the amulet based on the number of bees you kill:

10 kills gives you a 3% chance.
40 kills gives you a 10% chance.
100 kills gives you a 25% chance.
250 kills gives you a 50% chance.
500 kills gives you a 80% chance.
1000 kills gives you a 95% chance.

So, one in ten of us will find the amulet the first time we clear one of the spawn points. Half of us are going to have to kill 250 bees to find the amulet, and one in 20 of us are going to have to kill over 1000 bees. This is the math behind the fantasies of "it won't drop twice" and the existential rage we're prone to develop when farming bees for hundreds and hundreds of kills. Our species is inclined to find patterns in draws from a RNG (assuming all readers are in "our" species).

The amulet is a quest item and cannot be sold. You can of course destroy it.

I went to both spawn points because I farmed for several hours and I have a short attention span. Here's some information to help you choose where to farm.

The walk from Seeker's Vista up to Gale's Rest is longer than the walk from Millstone Hamlet to Beryl Meadow , but there are a lot more ankle-biting spiders and rats on the way to Beryl Meadow. There are more bees in Gale's Rest (40ish as compared to 30ish), and they come in groups of 3-4 rather than in groups of 2-3. The goats in Gale's Rest seem intent on getting pulled into your bee-killing, while the bears in Beryl Meadow can be avoided. If you get bored, there are a couple of more interesting things to hunt down and kill near Beryl Meadow, whereas Gale's Rest just has a scroll and a treasure chest. Perhaps because Gale's Rest is recommended more often on WoWHead, I frequently had company up there during a weekend afternoon, whereas at Beryl Meadow I never saw anyone other than the bears, the bees, and the butterflies.

Comment by Tiredandabused

Ok so for the mildenhall quest chain that has to be completed first, if I talk to ancel and he says how cool it was that I killed those wendigos all by myself does it mean I did it or is that default for him? I’m trying to figure out how to get this and if I have done the ql because the /script crap ppl keep posting doesn’t work with pre patch

Comment by kiwiya

Still drops the same as of 9.0.1. Got it after 200 bees.

Comment by KimberLion

Farmed from Bumbling Bees today in SW Stormsong Valley, dropped after 59 bees. I was fully expecting to do more than 100 so I'm pleasantly surprised. They respawn quickly though, so it was an easy grind.

Comment by Crazyjor

I'm so glad I have altoholic because I actually searched and it was in my bank. Just saved myself a few hours of pain! Check your bank!

Comment by Toenail

maybe something has changed/ the info i had was to kill the bubbling meads & flowing honeys to get the annealed honey amulet. after finishing the quest chain through Back to the lab quest i killed about 6 of those and got it.

Comment by Shortbrunette

It can still be found at Gale's Rest killing the bumbling bees. They come in groups of three or four and I only had to kill around 98 before it dropped.

Comment by shanekuchler

Can you get it more than once if you sold it off years ago?

Comment by PoeticDiscord

Spent about 45 minutes farming bumbling bees for this, at around /way 45.62 31.14 . it's about a twice better drop rate for the bumbling bees over the flowing honey. Just don't die, it's a pain in the ass run back to your body. I was doing this on a level 33 alliance hunter alt.

Comment by wispling

Just a note as of Dragonflight 10.2.6: This amulet will still drop for you if you are below level 45, but note that in the description, it requires 45 to "use" it, aka start the quest it is used for. Just in case anyone misses that detail. IT WILL DROP below level 45. So feel free to farm it early on! Only had to kill bumbling bees for about 30 minutes to get it, at level 44...
