Lump Of Coal — BSS Beequip
“Naughty bees are forced to carry this burdensome load.”
Base stats
Rolled when the beequip is generated or Swirled. Ranges are the full minimum–maximum; the "chance" column shows how likely the stat is to appear at 0★ → 5★ potential. Red stats are penalties.
| Stat | Range | Chance to have it |
|---|---|---|
| BeeEnergy | −80% – −70% | 100% |
| BeeMovespeed | −50% – −40% | 100% |

Wax upgrade pool
Each wax point upgrades one of these stats by a step. Stats not in the base table only appear through waxing. The "best possible" column assumes a maximum base roll plus every upgrade at its cap.

| HiveBomb Pollen | +1% | 10 | +13% |
| HiveBuzz Bomb Pollen | +1% | 10 | +13% |

- How this page is calculated
- Beequip stat tables (base ranges, chances, upgrade steps, caps and Caustic-only flags) are converted directly from the game's beequip definitions as documented by the community wiki's datamined Module:Beequip_Stats/data — no numbers are typed in by hand. The wax calculator replays the game's random-bias roll and weighted stat selection in a 20,000-run Monte-Carlo simulation; wax success rates (100% / 60% / 25%) are the in-game item descriptions. Obtain methods are compiled from the wiki and reviewed by us.
