Blue Hive Composition Guide (2026 Meta)

Blue Hives remain the king of macro honey production in 2026. This guide details the optimal composition.

The Composition (50 Bees)

The goal is to maximize Bubble Bloat and Balloons.

  • Mythics:
    • 18-19 Buoyant Bees: For balloons and capacity.
    • 8-10 Tadpole Bees: For bubbles (Pop Star activation) and frogs. All must be Gifted for Baby Love.
  • Event Bees:
    • Tabby Bee (Critical for crit power)
    • Bear Bee (If owned, for pollen multipliers)
    • Gummy Bee (Honey per pollen)
    • Festive Bee (Gifted bonus is nice)
    • Windy Bee (Cloud vials/tornados)
    • Puppy Bee (Only if gifted for leveling, swap out later)
    • Cobalt Bee is OPTIONAL in 2026 (Instant conversion can hurt balloon filling).
  • Core Support (Gifted):
    • 4 Music Bees: For Melody (Crit Power) and Focus tokens.
    • 1 Commander Bee: For Focus (if needed).
    • 1 Looker Bee: For Focus.
    • 1 Stubborn Bee: Token lifespan.
    • 1 Bubble Bee: Bubbles.
    • 1 Bucko Bee: Blue boost.
    • 1 Ninja Bee: Haste/Blue Boost.
    • 1 Diamond Bee: Conversion rate.

Key Gear

  • Mask: Diamond Mask is mandatory. Bubble Mask is the budget option.
  • Amulet: Supreme Star Amulet with Pop Star passive. Ideally Pop Star + Star Shower.

Mutation Priorities

  • Buoyants: Convert Rate or Gather Amount.
  • Tadpoles: Energy or Bar (to spawn frogs more often).
