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
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)

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.

Okey dokie

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
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
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
