Mostly I am looking to see if the damage output Channel Divinity, and Aura are on par with other paladin oaths, and dont break the game.
Oath of Bees
Tenets of the Bees
The tenets of the Oath of Bees are often set by following the way of the bee, and generally emphasize the following tenets.
Friends. Friends are more important than anything, a person without friends is not a person, but mere dust.
Mind. Strength of the mind is strength of the body, a bee can control itself, emotions come second.
Perseverance. Nothing stops the bee from its goal. No matter the cost, no matter the risk, once a bee decides to do something, nothing is more important.

Channel Divinity
When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following Channel Divinity options.
Hum and Sting. As a bonus action, you can use your Channel Divinity to begin the hum of the bee. For the next minute, you can add your Charisma modifier to attack and damage rolls. If you score a critical hit during the duration, you can add 1d4 acid damage to the total damage.
Bee Flight. As a bonus action, you can use your Channel Divinity to activate your bee flight. For the next 5 rounds, you have a 10ft fly speed, and all of your attacks do an extra 1d8 acid damage.
Aura of Bees
Beginning at 7th level, Bees fly around you so heavily upon you that it forms an wall of sight. You and friendly creatures within 5ft of you cannot be seen, as if you are heavily obscured. You and friendly creatures can see out, but other creatures only see the bees swarming. You can turn this on and off as a bonus action.
At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 10ft.
Eye of the Swarm
Starting at 15th level, your swarm shall contain an enemy for you. Once per long rest, you can cause a swarm to engulf a medium or smaller creature. That creature cannot see anything beyond 10 ft for 6 rounds. They can only see past the bees using truesight. Any creature that comes within 10 ft of them has the same effect on their own sight. If they move, the bees follow the creature that this effect was used on.
Infinibee
At 20th level, the powers of the bee become one with you, and you gain the following abilities.
- A permanent 10ft magical fly speed.
- Your unarmed strikes deal 2d8 magical piercing damage, and you can smite with them.
- Whenever you fall below 15 HP, bees surround you, giving you a +1 to AC and all rolls.
