what you get

A jump balloon with a defensive rider bolted on. The jump boost is the part you feel every few seconds. The bees only turn up after something hurts you and they do very little damage, though the Honey buff that arrives with them gives you a short window of extra regeneration at the moment you want one.

is it the right balloon

Probably not. Most of the balloon combinations hand you a second jump, and a double jump is a movement option you choose to use several times a minute. This one trades that away for a reaction to being hit, which is a bad deal for anyone who is dodging well. Build it if you specifically want honey regeneration out of a slot you were already spending on a balloon, and skip it otherwise.

stacking

None of the bee accessories add up. The Honey Comb, the Bee Cloak, the Sweetheart Necklace and the rest all produce the same swarm and the same buff length, so wearing two of them gets you one effect and a wasted slot.

an oddity

Underwater the balloon actually leaves you jumping slightly lower than you would with nothing equipped, which nothing about the item warns you about.
