QUEEN BEE SUCKS! also how is my setup for this early in the game? 
The electric wand should not be there. I see that you were trying to start a magic build, but without any book or the robe, that wand only exists to take up space. The staff, however, is fine. You could only wield it 3 times per battle, but at least it hits every enemy and deals 11 points of damage.
Using it once and then hitting the bees with the club would kill the Queen's summons immediately and thus you would have had an easier time dealing with the boss.
To be fair, I think he just took that wand with him because he had free space.. I for example always fill empty spaces with "junk", just in case I get some items later on that make that "junk" useable.. if not you can always just throw it away or sell it for some extra coins^^
Or he was waiting for books or the robe and he just didn't get them yet. Happens constantly with every build..
