Poinsettia — BSS Beequip
“A gorgeous red flower so vibrant it is reserved for a special time of the year.”
- • Bee must know the "Boost" ability
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 |
|---|---|---|
| BeeRed Gather Amount | +10% – +20% | 100% |
| BeeGather Pollination Chance | +10% – +20% | 100% |
| HiveBee Gather Pollen | +1% | 20% – 50% |
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.
| Stat | Per wax point | Max upgrades | Best possible |
|---|---|---|---|
| BeeRed Gather Amount | +1% – +2% | 20 | +60% |
| BeeGather Pollination Chance | +1% | 20 | +40% |
| HiveBee Gather Pollen | +1% – +3% | 10 | +31% |
| HiveRed Pollen(wax only) | +2% – +5% | 5 | +25% |
How to get the Poinsettia
- Beesmas only — previously Spirit Bear's Galentine's Shrine quest and the Beequip Bundle / Poinsettia Pack in Bee Bear's Catalog
- Outside Beesmas: trading only
Beesmas beequips return each event with new bundles and gift boxes; between events the only way to get one is trading. Beesmas beequips also use the game's older stat RNG, which ignores potential for some rolls.

- — Maintained by the BSS Calculators editorial team.
- 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.
