Blue Hive Amulet Guide: SSA, Stick Bug & Moon Amulet Stats
Stop wasting honey on bad amulet rolls. Learn the perfect stats for Supreme Star Amulet, King Beetle, and Stick Bug amulets specifically optimized for Blue Hive macroing.
Supreme Star Amulet (SSA) Stats
The SSA is your most important amulet. Here are the optimal stats for Blue Hive, prioritized by importance.
✓ Essential Stats (Must Have)
- Pop Star (Solo Pop or Pop Shower): Core passive for Blue Hive. Solo Pop is easier to maintain, Pop Shower gives higher peak output.
- Blue Pollen +15% or higher: Directly increases your honey production.
- Convert Rate +3% or higher: More important than raw pollen for Blue Hive.
- Bee Ability Rate +5% or higher: Increases Buoyant and Tadpole ability frequency.
○ Good Stats (Nice to Have)
- Instant Blue Conversion +10% or higher: Speeds up conversion cycles.
- Blue Bomb Pollen +5% or higher: Synergizes with bubble mechanics.
- Capacity +5% or higher: Allows longer macro sessions before converting.
- Pollen from Bees +3% or higher: General production boost.
✗ Avoid These Stats
- Red Pollen / Red Bomb: Completely useless for Blue Hive.
- White Pollen: Not optimal for color-focused hives.
- Mob Respawn Time: Minimal impact on macroing.
- Critical Chance: Low priority for Blue Hive strategy.
Solo Pop vs Pop Shower
Easier to maintain 100% uptime. Better for overnight macroing. More consistent honey production.
Higher peak output but requires precise timing. Better for active play. Harder to maintain during macro.
King Beetle & Stick Bug Amulets
King Beetle Amulet
Blue Pollen +10%, Convert Rate +2%, Bee Ability Rate +3%, Capacity +5%
King Beetle amulet is your secondary amulet. Focus on stats that complement your SSA without duplicating passives.
Stick Bug Amulet
Blue Pollen +8%, Instant Conversion +8%, Blue Bomb +5%, Pollen from Bees +2%
Stick Bug amulet provides additional blue pollen bonuses. Prioritize instant conversion to speed up your macro cycles.
Moon Amulet (Optional)
Capacity +10%, Convert Rate +2%, Blue Pollen +5%
Moon amulet is less critical but can provide useful capacity bonuses for extended macro sessions.
Why Convert Rate > Raw Pollen for Blue Hive
Many players mistakenly prioritize raw pollen stats over convert rate. Here's why convert rate is more valuable for Blue Hive:
Convert Rate Benefits
- Reduces time spent converting
- More time gathering = more honey
- Synergizes with instant conversion
- Better for overnight macroing
Raw Pollen Limitations
- Only affects gathering phase
- Doesn't reduce conversion time
- Less impactful for macro efficiency
- Capacity becomes bottleneck
Example: A 3% convert rate increase can save 5-10 seconds per conversion cycle. Over a 12-hour macro session, this adds up to 30-60 extra minutes of gathering time, resulting in significantly more honey than a 5% raw pollen increase.
Amulet Rolling Tips
1. Save your moon charms: Only roll SSA when you have 50+ moon charms saved up.
2. Lock good stats: If you get Pop Star + Blue Pollen, lock those and keep rolling for convert rate.
3. Don't chase perfection: An SSA with Pop Star + 3 essential stats is good enough. Perfect rolls are extremely rare.
4. Secondary amulets matter less: Don't waste too many resources rolling King Beetle/Stick Bug. Focus on SSA first.
