Adds beeswax from player beehives and wild nests. Equip it and coat wood, hardwood, and wood iron pieces to keep rain and standing water from wearing them down.
No crafting recipe — wax only comes from bees.
Waxed pieces are protected from rain and water damage. With default settings, waxed wood shows a glossy look. While holding beeswax, waxed pieces show Already waxed when hover text is enabled.
