Honeyed healing is better for a playstyle at the margins. The ideal would be if you spent a lot of time hungry to maximize your damage output, and your health takes a hit as a result. Honeyed healing kicks you up to full satiety and almost full health simultaneously, so that marginal playstyle is much more reliable. Still, I never have much trouble with standard potions and food, so I usually hold the bees "for later" then forget about them...

being hungry maximize damage? now that's new for me, also didn't knew that honeyed healing satisfy hunger and doesn't it protect hp from depleting? but you are saying that it will provide almost full health,confused if it heals or protects health

edit:also the reason i shattered the pot was because i found three honey pots else i keep them dm 300

Oh, sorry I misspoke. No, being hungry does not increase your damage. Choosing not to sate your hunger to find another badguy maximizes your damage at the expense of your health. You can choose that strategy more safely if you have honeyed healing.

I usually use my bees during the dwarf king fight. 3-4 bees and a regrowth bomb does wonders for keeping the hoard off of you during the final phase.
