- Primary Goal: Acquire all bee swarm simulator amulets to secure permanent multipliers for pollen collection, hive capacity, and battle power.
- Star Amulet Priority: Hatch unique gifted bees to unlock higher tiers of the Star Amulet, culminating in the Supreme Star Amulet (SSA).
- Challenge Runs: Optimize your combat bee levels to score higher in the Ant Challenge and Stick Bug Challenge for superior rolls.
- Rerolling Strategy: Avoid spending early-game honey on stat rolls; save your resources for late-game SSA passive matching.
Unlocking All Bee Swarm Simulator Amulets
Acquiring and optimizing bee swarm simulator amulets is one of the most critical progression milestones for maximizing your honey-making efficiency. These permanent equipable items provide massive boosts to your pollen collection, convert rate, hive capacity, and battle power. Unlike temporary gear, amulets stay with you forever, providing passive bonuses that scale as your hive grows.
To build a top-tier hive, you must understand where to find each amulet and what requirements you must meet to claim them. The table below outlines the core amulets available in the game, their locations, and how to unlock them.
| Amulet | Location | How to Unlock | Primary Boosts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moon Amulet | Moon Shrine | Spend Moon Charms | Capacity, Bond from Treats |
| Star Amulet | Star Hall | Hatch unique Gifted Bees | Capacity, Pollen, Passives |
| Ant Amulet | Ant Arena | Defeat Ants in Ant Challenge | Player Movespeed, Critical Chance |
| Shell Amulet | Stump Field | Defeat the Shell Beetle | Defense, Goo, Pollen |
| King Beetle Amulet | King Beetle Lair | Defeat King Beetle | Strawberry/Blueberry Pollen |
| Stick Bug Amulet | Stick Bug Challenge | Defeat Stick Bug | Shared Luck, Red/Blue Pollen |
| Cog Amulet | Robo Bear Challenge | Complete Robo Bear rounds | Robo Challenge stats, capacity |
Do not ignore early-game amulets like the King Beetle Amulet and Moon Amulet. They are highly accessible and provide the raw capacity boosts needed to transition out of the early-game grind.
To help you prioritize your farming efforts, let us break down the three most accessible early-to-mid game amulets that every player should secure as soon as possible.
Moon Amulet
- Raw Capacity: Boosts your maximum backpack capacity by up to 250,000.
- Treat Bond: Grants up to +10% Bond from Treats, saving you billions of honey on bee leveling.
- Honey Per Pollen: Offers crucial conversion multipliers during active farming.
Ant Amulet
- Combat Utility: Increases your player movement speed and direct bee attack.
- Critical Strikes: Boosts Critical Chance and Critical Power for massive pollen bursts.
- Loot Luck: Enhances your chances of obtaining rare drops from defeated bugs.
King Beetle Amulet
- Color Pollen: Provides up to +100% pollen from Blueberries, Strawberries, or Pineapples.
- Hive Conversion: Increases your direct hive conversion rate by up to x1.05.
- Combat Reward: Completely free to roll once every 30 hours upon defeating the King Beetle.
Star Amulet Guide: Unlocking Supreme Star Amulet Passives
The Star Amulet is the most powerful progression gate in the game. Located in the Star Hall above the No-Bee Gate, this amulet scales directly with the number of unique gifted bee types discovered in your hive. Unlike normal bees, gifted bees provide a permanent hive-wide bonus that does not stack with duplicate gifted bees of the same type.
To upgrade your Star Amulet, you must discover unique gifted types and pay a designated honey cost. The table below details the requirements for each tier.
| Tier | Gifted Bees Required | Cost in Honey | Key Guaranteed Stats |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze Star Amulet | 5 Unique Gifted | 250,000 | +10% Capacity, x1.1 Pollen |
| Silver Star Amulet | 10 Unique Gifted | 10,000,000 | +25% Capacity, x1.2 Pollen |
| Gold Star Amulet | 20 Unique Gifted | 100,000,000 | +50% Capacity, x1.3 Pollen, 1 Passive |
| Diamond Star Amulet | 30 Unique Gifted | 1,000,000,000 | +100% Capacity, x1.4 Pollen, 1 Passive |
| Supreme Star Amulet (SSA) | 40 Unique Gifted | 10,000,000,000 | +150% Capacity, x1.5 Pollen, 1-2 Passives |
You do not need to keep all 40 unique gifted bees in your active hive simultaneously to unlock the Supreme Star Amulet. The game tracks your "discovered" gifted types in your badge menu. Once a gifted type is discovered, you can safely royal jelly over it if it does not fit your final hive build.
Once you unlock the Supreme Star Amulet (SSA), you gain access to powerful passive abilities. These passives are the foundation of late-game hive specialization. Landing the correct passive determines whether your hive should focus on Red, Blue, or White pollen.
| Passive Name | Effect Summary | Best Hive Color |
|---|---|---|
| Pop Star | Spawns bubbles that collect blue pollen and multiply capacity | Blue Hive |
| Scorching Star | Spawns fireflies that boost red pollen and create fire fields | Red Hive |
| Gummy Star | Spawns gumdrops and triggers massive goo-collecting boosts | White Hive |
| Guiding Star | Creates a beacon in your least-farmed field for massive multipliers | Mixed Hive |
| Star Shower | Drops stars that collect pollen and restore player energy | Mixed / Blue Hive |
| Star Saw | Summons a saw that converts pollen and clears cobwebs | Red / White Hive |
Amulet Stat Optimization: Rerolling Strategies
Rerolling your amulets is a necessary step to transition from mid-game to endgame. However, doing so inefficiently can drain your resources. The Moon Shrine, located behind the Bamboo Field, is the perfect place to practice amulet optimization before tackling the high-cost Star Amulet rerolls.
Follow these steps to safely upgrade and optimize your Moon Amulet stats without wasting your hard-earned Moon Charms.
Collect Moon Charms
Gather Moon Charms by defeating Fireflies at night, completing King Beetle fights, playing the Moon Memory Match, or turning in quests to Spirit Bear. You will need at least 100 Moon Charms for your first roll.
Visit the Moon Shrine
Travel to the Moon Shrine located next to the 10-bee gate. Stand in the generator circle to open the amulet crafting interface.
Generate and Compare Stats
Spend your Moon Charms to generate a new Moon Amulet. The game will display your current amulet stats alongside the newly rolled stats. Check for high-priority modifiers like Capacity, Bond from Treats, and Honey per Pollen.
Decide to Keep or Discard
If the new roll is superior, accept the replacement. If it is worse, discard it. Your next rolls will cost fewer Moon Charms, floor-capping at 50 charms per roll once you have generated your fifth amulet.
Rerolling a Supreme Star Amulet costs a flat 10 Billion honey per attempt. Chasing a perfect "double passive" roll (such as Pop Star + Star Shower) can easily bankrupt your hive. Secure a strong single passive with matching color stats first before attempting double passive rolls.
Challenge Amulet Guide: Ant Arena and Stick Bug Tactics
Unlike the Star and Moon amulets, which are purchased with static resources, the Ant Amulet and Stick Bug Amulet are earned through active combat challenges. Your score in these challenges directly dictates the tier of the amulet you receive.
The Ant Challenge requires an Ant Pass to enter. You must defeat waves of ants within a strict time limit. The table below shows the score thresholds required to secure higher-tier Ant Amulets.
| Tier | Score Required | Key Stats |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze Ant Amulet | 1 - 49 Points | +Player Movespeed, +Pollen |
| Silver Ant Amulet | 50 - 99 Points | +Critical Chance, +Blue/Red Pollen |
| Gold Ant Amulet | 100 - 149 Points | +Critical Power, +White Pollen |
| Diamond Ant Amulet | 150 - 249 Points | +Convert Rate, +Attack, +Loot Luck |
| Supreme Ant Amulet | 250+ Points | Max stat rolls, +Extra Bee Attack |
The Stick Bug Challenge is an even more demanding battle. Triggered by interacting with the Stick Bug NPC or using a Stick Bug Totem, this event scales in difficulty based on your hive level.
| Tier | Score Required | Key Stats |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze Stick Bug Amulet | 1,000,000 - 4,999,999 | +Shared Luck, +Red/Blue Pollen |
| Silver Stick Bug Amulet | 5,000,000 - 14,999,999 | +Bee Attack, +Pollen from Tools |
| Gold Stick Bug Amulet | 15,000,000 - 49,999,999 | +Critical Chance, +Capacity |
| Diamond Stick Bug Amulet | 50,000,000 - 99,999,999 | +Extra Red/Blue Pollen, +Loot Luck |
| Supreme Stick Bug Amulet | 100,000,000+ | Max stats, +Massive Shared Luck |
To prepare your hive for these high-intensity combat challenges, use the checklist below to ensure you do not waste your entry passes.
Challenge Run Preparation:
- Level up your primary combat bees (Vicious, Rage, and Spicy) to at least level 12.
- Stack maximum Blue and Red Extracts to boost your movement speed and bee attack power.
- Activate field boosts in surrounding fields to maximize passive token collection during the run.
- Equip combat-focused gear like the Demon Mask or Crimson and Cobalt Guards.
The Stick Bug Challenge allows multiple players to participate simultaneously. Tackle this challenge with high-level friends or community members to easily surpass the 50 million score threshold for a Diamond Stick Bug Amulet.
Frequently Asked Questions About Amulets
Q: Can I equip multiple bee swarm simulator amulets of the same type?
No. You can only equip one amulet per slot (e.g., one Moon Amulet, one Star Amulet, one Ant Amulet). If you generate a new amulet of the same type, you must choose to either replace your existing amulet or discard the new roll.
Q: How do I unlock the Supreme Star Amulet in Bee Swarm Simulator?
To unlock the Supreme Star Amulet, you must discover 40 unique types of Gifted Bees in your hive index and purchase the amulet from the Star Hall for 10 Billion Honey.
Q: Does the Shell Amulet expire or disappear over time?
No. Once you obtain the Shell Amulet by defeating the Shell Beetle in the Stump Field, it is a permanent addition to your stats. Defeating the Shell Beetle again simply allows you to roll for better stats.
Q: What is the best passive for a Blue Hive SSA?
The Pop Star passive is the absolute best choice for Blue Hives, as it scales your capacity and blue pollen collection through bubble generation.
