Before you donate to the wind shrine, make sure you have max precision, stack, and haste.Alwaysrefresh precision when below 25 sec (15 sec if you trust yourself) . If you run out of it, get it back to x10 ASAP. Have x10 red boost all the time by allowing some of the precision abilities to miss. If you don’t have scorching you can stack precise marks, you get red boost tokens for scorching + precise marks. The most important thing is, if you have scorching active, get it to 6K+ ASAP, collect all precise targets and stay in marks. SPAM PRECISE MARKS. Try to not move around too much too fast because your bees will stop spawning tokens. Do not turn flames into dark flames instantly so they last longer.
COCO BELT MECHANICS COMING SOON
If you are doing Festive Bean boost plant festive bean on the second scorching. When you have Festive Bean effects activated, stack precise marks, collect all precise targets, and stay in marks.

Why do you need brave bee?
Why no vic bee?Reply
Brave Bee provides good buffs to your hive, including extra Bee Attack and thus improving Star Saw conversion and the Beequips it can have make it really nice to run (eg. Toy Drum or Toy Horn).
You can run Vicious Bee for casual playing and doing RBC, but during boosting and for Red in general it’s pretty bad as it doesn’t give you anything beneficial.Reply
hey why isnt there rage bee tho
Reply
Not worth running and commando is better
Reply
Hey acid,
I am a F2P player and would like to know a good replacement for Bear Bee!Reply
Probably an extra spicy bee
Reply
There is none, if bear bee is a must for Red. You may use other other bees but none can do what bear bee does
Why don’t you need any fuzzy bees?
Reply
Having fuzzy bees in your hive while endgame will decrease your honeymaking substantially so a fuzzy alt or helper is NEEDED for red endgame. If you are not endgame yet or your alt isnt ready then you can add 1 fuzzy (only lvl x<19)
Reply
Hey!
Are Pink Shades okay for red hive or only white? I got them last beesmas and have been holding onto them as I only just went red.
Cheers
Reply
Hey Nathan! Pink Shades with a hive bonus of Super Crit power are really good and definitely could be run as white!
Reply
why the absence of windy bee tryna get preped for beesmas
Reply
Windy bee really has no benefits for red hives and has no reason to be run. It isn’t fantastic for RBC nor does Red lack token collecting (Precise Bees targets) you can replace a cheap bee for windy for quests or if you can’t be convinced
Reply
Gifted Baby Bees aren’t really needed due to Gifted Tadpoles giving Baby Love, so I would remove the Baby Bees and replace them with either a Gifted Tadpole or something else.
Reply
The frogs and bubbles they spawn only cause lag. Having frogs is pointless and the only point is to have Constant Baby love. Also the main reason is that it’s incredibly easy to get BAR on Baby Bees whereas it is expensive to get it on Tadpole Bees.
Reply
Okey dokie
Reply
I just wanted to say thanks for creating this guide, it has to be the most reasonable solution to all situations of boosting/attack. I hope i learn well of what you posted.
Reply
Thanks for your comment! If you need any help dont be shy to ask!
Reply
What if the person wants attack? Frogs can do hefty damage.
Reply
Bubble lights on vectors? Why not smiley stickers?
Reply
Bubble lights on vectors or precise bees. Smileys on Precise Bees. Remember these are only suggestions and you can run whatever you have.
Reply
Why no gifted fire bee for the 50% flame pollen?
Reply
Simply not worth a slot, flames is not a primary source of pollen in current red hives
Reply
I am a level 17 full gifted red hive with 12 precise bees, 10 spicy bees, and 8 vector bees, however, I have to run a gifted fuzzy as I don’t have a fuzzy alt. Currently I am stuck in a conflict of whether or not I should run a hasty bee, as I currently use brave, rage, riley, 3 carp, 2 tad + 2 baby, shy, and a buoyant. I was thinking to remove riley since my buoyant already gives me a lot of extra capacity buffs, or potentially removing a baby/carp, or just not running a hasty bee in general. I would really appreciate getting your opinion on this acid.
Reply
Honestly you could boost without a hasty bee if you run some haste beequips. Also I dont recommend staying red for too long if you aren’t working towards a fuzzy alt.
Reply
What can I add/remove to help me with rbc (I am lvl 16 red hive no star saw) like how many precise bees and so on
Reply
Dont really recommend being red at such an early stage due to it takes a lot more skill than blue and is way more expensive in terms of stingers.Also at level 16 you may struggle with RBC, you could try going Robo hive but honestly I just recommend learning which upgrades are good and levelling up your bees ALSO GET SAW ASAP!
Reply
Why don’t you need rad or fire?
Reply
not worth a slot and flame pollen isn’t the source of honey for red
Reply
Wouldn’t Bubble Lights on Vectors not work because they need an energy mutation first?
Reply
just get energy mutation then lol
Reply
im currently a blue hive but is it recommended to switch to red after a while or should i just stay blue?
also could i replace a music bee with a cobalt bee with a toyhorn?
Reply
You could switch to a red hive once further developed, check out the other red guide made. I recommend lvl 19+
Personally i dont believe a cobalt bee is worth the slot. Music bee is kinda opReply
I need a 45 red hive
Reply
why pollen from bees on ssa? does bee ability pollen count as pollen from bees?
Reply
No but pollen from bees (now bee gather pollen) counts for smiley token collection
Reply
You can’t do Bubble lights on precise bees. Maybe you meant vectors?
Reply
is this up to date after the new update?
Reply
yes
Reply
why isn’t there a rage bee? It got buffed
Reply
Not worth running as the attack will not benefit precise gather and running a commander bee is more worth it for beequip compatibility
Reply
Whats a good bee to add in replacement of bear bee?? i might do fuzzy bee but lmk
Reply
update:
I got bear bee and gifted him quickly which is help me run my hive pretty well. as an early red lvl 12 i got 700b in a boost, which is decent for the fact i messed up the glitter and had to gamble smooth dice to get back to 3x pepper field. quick question tho, do you think camphor lip balm is good. one of the bonuses is 1.04x pepper field pollen which i think is lowkey fireReply
rbc hive?
Reply
why not include lion bee w/5% gifted pollen over riley bee? What is the benefit of riley for boosting w/red and star saw?
Reply
For the 20% Red field capacity (If you have alot of buffs on like double or triple bear morph while boosting your bag will explode and u wont be able to make tokens if u dont have enough capacity) and because it can run tdrum which red doesnt have many good options for (only riley and brave since you wont be using bucko or demo in red)
Reply
why the brave bee but no rage bee?
Reply
Shy bee gives 5% bee ability pollen, while lion gives 5% gifted bee pollen. If “bee pollen” includes both gather and ability pollen, it seems like lion is now better than shy.However both are still useless to run sadly. Onett needs to buff bap
Reply
why is brave ran over rage
Reply
Rage bee is better than a brave bee because 10% attack is better than 1attack.
Reply
Attack is not needed a lot right now as precise bee gather is maxed at 90 which is easily achieved and commander/brave have better beequip compatibility
Reply
Wouldnt you want thumb tack for 6% red bee attack?
Reply
Is Windy any useful in red hives now after the change to clouds?
Reply
No because haste is more important
Reply
On what bees do I put beequips that aren’t specified what bees they have to be on?
Reply
Put wherever you can fit
Reply
Surely you dont need festive bee anymore since the hive bonus gives convert rate at hive

Am i able to use this hive w/o dark scythe

not recommended work towards scythe ASAP

What would a good bear bee replacement be?

Next update you can trade for bear bee voucher so add a normal bee and stock up on signs to trade for a voucher

Hello! I have a question, I’m midgame and I’m planning on going blue, as it’s the cheapest,yet pours in the most, and then I want to switch to red as I want attack, and collect good pollen, and so my question is, should I make a new account and make that account a fuzzy alt?
Reply
Yes but I don’t recommend going red early
Reply
would it be okay to switch at level 18, I dont have digital yet and can nearly afford the dark scythe
Reply
Get dark scythe first
Reply
what is core beequips should we have with stats (have 12 slot only)
Reply
Red hive is so hard to grind when you are a f2p player tho.
Reply
I was wondering what bee equips on what bees do I run? Also, do i run rage cuz what do i put the 2 toy horns, Whistle, and Toy drum bee equips on?
Reply
it says whistle for commander and toy drum for riley, i think the other two are mainly for the hive bonus so it’s up to you overall
Reply
Cheers!
Reply
Hi acid, I haven’t played in beesmas so I don’t have digital bee and i’m f2p so I don’t have bear bee either, I have 10 spicy bees right now in my red hive, is it ok to replace those two for the two spicy bees? Also how much honey would it cost to get those mythics without it being gifted?
Reply
probably 100b
Reply
Why gifted tadpoles and not gifted babies?
Reply
blue boost activates scorch
Reply
I was wondering whether to get either 500 red drives first, then 500 white drives, or vice versa OR build them both up gradually ?
Reply
I am currently a level 16 blue hive, the problem is that I don’t macro. I think going red would benefit me alot considering I am building up to a fuzzy alt and to dark scythe. Could anyone tell me if it is worth it or not?
Reply
maybe get level 18 first

Just like lion bee, simply not worth it 🙂

Couldn’t I drop a carp for a fuzzy instead of a vector, when using honeymark smiley.
Reply
def not go build up a fuzzy alt asap
Reply
But like do I need the extra vector, I feel like I could use a gifted lion or Riley instead
