When to Switch?
Switch to Red/White IF:
- • You have 40+ gifted bees (SSA unlocked)
- • Your bees are level 20+ across the board
- • You've completed all blue hive equipment
- • You're willing to invest Quadrillions of honey
- • You enjoy macro farming or specific playstyles
Stay Blue Hive IF:
- • You have fewer than 45 bees
- • You haven't reached 40/40 gifted bees yet
- • Your bees are below level 20
- • You want the most cost-efficient progression
- • You're a new endgame player (under 1 Quadrillion total honey)
DON'T Switch IF:
- • You're still working on SSA (less than 40 gifted types)
- • Your equipment is incomplete
- • You haven't tried blue hive endgame yet
- • You're impatient (Red/White require massive time investment)
💡 Expert Insights
- Blue hive produces 10x more honey than Red/White at early endgame levels with 10x less investment.
- Level 20 bees are crucial: Don't switch to Red/White until all bees are level 20+. Otherwise, DPS is too low.
- Mixed hives are viable: Many endgame players run 30-35 faction bees + 10-15 support bees for flexibility.
