It IS a hover_stinger_ after all. I can see why it would be a bit too much, but even on layer 1 they're not too common and they are easily dispatched with moderately strong melee attacks.

Ehhh, I honestly think that this might make the Hive Queen fight a bit too difficult. Hoverstingers are meant to be an easy mob. I'll think about maybe a short poison effect, but if anyone else would like to give feedback on this it'd be appreciated.
