A yellow jacket is a type of wasp in SLASH'EM. It is easily mistaken for the killer bee, as both share the same glyph and both appear in large groups.

Strategy

Although they look like killer bees, yellow jackets are considerably more dangerous, simply because they have many more hit points. They do not do a large amount of damage individually, but because they appear in large groups and are relatively tough to destroy, they can be a considerable threat. Luckily, by the time they start appearing, the player's AC should be good enough to handle them.

Biology

It is a common predatory wasp in north America.
