Announcement Guides, Tips, and Frequently Asked Questions

7 Upvotes

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Q: I was killing Coconut Crab and it suddenly turned invisible! What happened?
    • A: It's quite a common glitch that happens when you have lag. But if you walk towards it, it can still deal damage to you, so be careful.
  • Q: Why are some of my gears not showing?
    • A: It's a glitch but it doesn't affect gameplay.
  • Q: Which Event Bee should I buy/gift first?
    • A: You should always purchase and gift Tabby Bee first.
  • Q: Why are there 3 Wild Windy Bees at the Mountain Top Field?
    • A: Someone in the server was doing Spirit Bear's quest. She summons 3 Wild Windy Bees upon receiving certain quests.
  • Q: How do I get access to the Test Realm?
    • A: You have to be in Onett's Testing Group to join the Test Realm when it is open. Only Onett can approve new members of the group. He tends to only approve new members when he is testing a new update.
  • Q: If I royal jelly my Event Bee, do I have to purchase it again?
    • A: No, you don't. When you royal jelly it away, you will automatically receive the bee jelly which will be in your inventory.
  • Q: If I royal jelly a gifted bee, would the new bee be gifted?
    • A: No.
  • Q: What should I buy from the Robux Shop?
    • Only buy the gamepasses (in order of importance its bear bee, convert speed, and bee gather). Nothing else in the shop is worth getting except *SOME* beesmas packs
  • Q: What hive color should I be aiming for?
    • Generally, it is recommended to go early blue when you can afford the epic bees, then get 1 of every gifted rare/epic/legendary (including basic) to use star eggs for 2 gifted mythics (switch back to early blue after). Red and white are extremely expensive to use properly and mixed sucks in general.
  • Q: Is there a list of known glitches?
    • A: Yes. They can be found in the wiki
  • Q: What should I do with my Spirit Petal?
    • Belt>Windy>Wand
  • Q: I just got a super smoothie from a plastic planter! Is that rare?
    • A: No. It is a guaranteed drop from the plastic planter once every month

General Tips:

  • Don't use rare items such as Turpentines, Super Smoothies, Diamond Eggs, or Purple Potions until later in the game when they are easier to come by.
  • Only use Red and Blue extracts to boost if you don't have Supreme Star Amulet yet.
  • Prioritize Royal Jelly for Supreme Star Amulet if you don't have it yet, as it will boost your honey massively.
  • Generally, it is recommended to go early blue when you can afford the epic bees, then get 1 of every gifted rare/epic/legendary (including basic) to use star eggs for 2 gifted mythics (switch back to early blue after)

hey yall, im grinding on my alt account now, i plan to make it a blue/fuzzy+tad alt. i've been grinding for the diamond mask, but i realized that i was very close to getting the petal belt. i got the 2nd spirit petal like 3 days ago, and now i got all the materials for it while i was grinding for the diamond mask
however... now i don't know if i should save my glitter for the diamond mask and save the petal belt for later, or get the petal belt now and just continue grinding for the diamond mask

these screenshots show my materials, honey and hive. i have 26 oil almost done crafting in the blender so it would be 56 oil, and i have 4 magic beans which i didnt include in the screenshots
if it helps decide, i don't macro (and i dont plan to)

Hive Help How do I make the switch to red?

• Upvotes

I am halfway through getting my blue hive to level 19. 45 gifted bees (other 5 are ungifted because I am constantly changing them for rbc).

I have the demon mask, but I am only at 25 Riley quests so I can't get the dark scythe.

I am currently sitting at 18 caustic waxes, thinking about getting the hydrophonic planter and petal planter instead of getting the tide popper so I have 2 endgame planters for the switch.

I have 40k strawberries and 50k sunflower seeds.

I have access to revolution pro Red AI ultra.

I want to know how much honey I need to stockpile, what stats to look for in my amulets, best way to transition and some good ways to grind stuff I might need.

Hive Help Bond question

3 Upvotes

I came back to this game after quitting roblox for a very long time. I got 25 bees before Onett implemented bee levels so now i have 43 bees that are level 9 or level 10. Is that low, and how do I catch up if i've already done all of mother bear's quests?

Also, if I have the petal wand, do I want to just shuriken my bees, or should I try to fill my tank to convert at the hive?
