Rumble bees are winged scorpions with the heads of ants. Unlike their pallet swap cousins, they are unable to paralyze prey with their stingers, but instead torment players by casting Sizz to roast unprepared parties, though they can paralyze enemies in Dragon Quest X, as well as increase their speed and cast Woosh, which they were ironically weak to.

Description Insectoid irritations with improbable intelligence, they excel at the Sizz spell and flee at the first sign of defeat. Cowardice is the better part of valour, after all.
