Messy run to the finish line


Day 22 

Dear Diary.

Besides the fact that I haven't been able to play much the last couple of days due to Christmas, my current game play is also very messy.

On Monday they disabled my whole strategy. Which was hatching as many bees as possible for fast growth. Gen 2 and 3 are now disabled for the big fusion event. This díd make the floor go up by at least 100HXD, but this doesn't help me, if anything, it does the opposite.

All other players will see their gen 3 assets rise just as much and I slowly started to assemble a u2 team. Those assets were much more expensive, but they didn't increase in price.

Acquired a Cocarro Queen with some breeds left
1 of the bees, I have 4 now

Oh right, about U2, I have 1 queen now and 4 bees and started to do some exploration and siege. I bought all season passes which was very expensive. My idea was to focus fully on exploration, but also this idea was killed in that same update. Almost all the shards were removed. So now I am stuck with a tean that can't do much and 1000 HXD spent on all passes 💀 Well at least I can get some of it back through the items.


I wouldn't recommend to build your hive based on a moving target. They are still rebalancing U2 and that is better for the game in general, but every time I try to do something the goalpost is moved.


Both plans are not possible anymore and I am now without a plan. Since there are only 5 days left, I also don't feel that there is time for a new plan. Everything would need more time. So I'm just doing some hunting and harvesting basically. Let's see what what we still can make of it! 

This also means that I would recommend to go for something steady when starting out, so when you don't have the funds yet to gamble a bit.

On a different note, I was still able to do quite some cool stuff of course, here we go!

Got some nice shards left to make a queen and maybe even 2 Gen 1 bees soon!

Won this in a raffle!

Made it to level 14...

And 15!

Let's try to adapt and come up with something, will update you soon!

What the Whale?!

Message from the future: This article was written and published in January, far before the changes to the generations in U1/Earth. All the basics still apply, the strategy would still be low zone turbo harvesting, but it might be interesting to spend a little bit more on quality > quantity and the asset prices are not the same anymore after that announcement. What are the changes? Only gen 3 eggs can be created, for 150 shards + WAX Gen 3 Bees will have 99 floor and 130 ceiling stats Per 1st April: Gen 3: 60% decrease in Queen Boost effectiveness Gen 2: 30% decrease in Queen Boost effectiveness There is an event item coming that will give players the option to increase the Generation of a Bee. Let's only look at the Queen Boost effectiveness for gen 3 now.  Before the changes (right now) a 270 gen 1 queen would give 108 stats to the gen 3. A 120 floor bee (overall) would end up as 228, 262 with other bees, and would bring in 0.33 hxd per run (with 2 others).  After the chan...

Icerax: How to open the portal to Cocarro

 Day 16 Dear Diary, I'm going for Icerax! Startegy: get 1-3 bees with luck > 250. They're supposed to stay in the battle for a long time, and will do a lot of damage that way. So I've bought a couple of relatively cheap luck upgrades and upgrades the highest luck bees. These 3 are supposed to be my MVP's! I started the battle with 3975 attack, the battle starts at 01:00 am for me. When I woke up, this was the snapshot, already more than the minimum needed to qualify! And when the evening started it looked like this It's looking good I think! If I filter by luck, I see all the high luck ones are still in the battle! It's paying off!  Oh, I also see I upgraded 1 that can only fight last few hours  My advise, when you don't have many bees, go for a few with high luck! I also made level 13 by the way 🔥
