Red Hive

[somber wagon]

I don't know but my farm is quite bad.
I made around 7.5T with recent code which is not really good I think.
What can I improve in terms of hive building or amulets?

[stone matrix]

your hive could use a lot of changes

like killing all musics, fire, looker, puppy, fuzzys, vicious, windy and gummy bee

get 12 precise and 9 spicy

and most importantly 8 vectors

you have a severe lack of marks

[somber wagon]

I kinda need vicious for Robo challenge

[stone matrix]

not for boost though

and the gifted bonus aint worth it

so what i and most red hives do is kill rad bee for vicious whenever we're not boosting

and just have the ungifted vic sit there until we boost, then switch it back to rad bee

[somber wagon]

fair

[stone matrix]

only valid thing to keep from this list might be a music depending on ur beequips, but what u should try to do is get 2 toy horns and a kazoo if you dont have them already

and then you can kill the music bees

[somber wagon]

why removing fuzzy btw?
I am farming alone btw, I don't have ppl to farm with me

[stone matrix]

all the other bees on the list either dont help at all or dont help enough to be worth a hive slot

[stone matrix]

you shouldn't boost alone

if you boost, either do it with a fuzzy hive pollinating for you, or don't boost at all

boosting without a fuzzy hive is a waste of materials

since you also need multiple sprinklers anyway

[somber wagon]

ikr
also I need this fuzzy boosts to help my friend or in general farming some quests

[stone matrix]

you don't ''need'' it

you should either have someone else or your own fuzzy alt to support you

but having fuzzys yourself is just a waste of hive space

[somber wagon]

Why is windy and gummy useless?
Even if windy is not constantly useful, it still can provide more boost than 1 extra precise or spicy

[stone matrix]

gummy is only useful for the hive bonus

and the 5% hpp isnt significant enough to be worth it

also windy bee kills your haste with the tornado which is very annoying

[somber wagon]

fair

[stone matrix]

and 1 extra spicy or precise can help a lot more than you might think

cuz they provide the most imporant parts of a boost

flames and targets, and marks are also in the same category

its very important to as a bare minimum have enougn marks, targets, and flames

and if you have that then you can worry about getting extra little buffs from hive bonuses

[somber wagon]

Got it
What about amulets?

[stone matrix]

they could use some upgrades but they're far from your main concern

you really need to get atleast 8 gifted vectors

and having a fuzzy hive in your field whilst boosting also doubles/triples how much you make

if not more

[somber wagon]

anyway, thanks a lot
I will follow most of the your advises

[stone matrix]

just ping me if you have questions

here's my hive for reference btw, keep in mind i only have the rad bee when i boost, so usually that's an ungifted vicious for rbc and such

also i only run 8 spicy bees, i wouldn't recommend this for you though

[somber wagon]

got it
thanks!

[glass jungle]

i think you only made 7t cause your hvive is bad

get a better composition

[stone matrix]

True, he's working on it now though

[somber wagon]

@stone matrix (srry for ping)
will this hive have enough damage to complete Stick Bug/Robo Challenge?

I don't think precise and vicious will provide that many damage output (i may be wrong tho)

[stone matrix]

I don't mind being pinged lol, feel free to anytime

[stone matrix]

Oh yes damage will be fun

Precise bees do a lot of damage, most of your damage even

And I recommend getting a ungifted vicious bee in your hive whenever you do RBC or stickbug, just kill your rad bee for it

And don't forget to get the rad bee back whenever you boost, you only need it then
