Complete Stick Bug Guide

Welcome to the complete stick bug guide! This guide explains every aspect to how to get the highest stick bug score! Explained in a simple way!

Basics

  • Should have around 3-4 people to get a higher score. If your going for a really high score you should be ideally a red hive or a attack and the rest 3 people should be blue hives and should focus on totems and kill the nymphs and don’t steal damage from main stick so you get higher score.
  • Pre-position each player in the following fields: Strawberry, Sunflower, Clover.
  • Any red/white hive should build 10x precision beforehand, and try to maintain it the whole run, getting precise marks is ideal is cases if the stick bug is high level, such as in casual runs level 10+. You should determine the situation if getting precise marks there is ideal if the stick bug is expected to move near that area or has high health, always value 10x precision over precise marks.
  • Any hive should use demon mask as it gives bee attack.
  • Maintain 4x Rage.
  • Jelly beans can be used to get crit chance form them.
  • Use Tropical drink and Oil for a better score, If your going for a really high score use super smoothie and the sticker stack.
  • You can add a Brave, Looker and Rage bee to your hive for a higher attack and score.

Movement

  • Move off the field when the stick bug has low health and is near death and can be killed whilst moving to the next expected field. Timing this and moving away from the field depends on how much attack you have and your capability to do damage, this can be determined while doing stick bug and looking at the damage you deal in a specific amount of time, move fields accordingly.
  • Save digital bee’s Mindhack, wait for all the nymphs to die if there are any. Most ideal use case would be when the stick bug is about to move further away from the field where you don’t have a good lineup of precise marks or is about to go in the field and spawn a totem.
  • Dying is essentially the worst thing that can happen in stick bug runs – if you’re low on health, avoid nymphs as much as possible or break totems if you can’t dodge them or are lagging, if there are no totems go on top of something where the stick bug or nymphs cant touch you.
  • If you die, a whirligig can be used to save a lot of time of bees travelling from death spot to hive then to the field where stick bug is.
  • If your a red/white hive using star saw make sure to target the nymphs with it, you can circle them so the saw hits them ~3 times per revolution.
  • Do not get hit by a precise target, as it kills you flame heat. Getting hit by it is only ideal in cases such as if you have really less time on your 10x focus (10x focus > 2x Flame heart) or if you have your X-Flame ability at 20+ tokens or you can activate it when getting hit by precise target.
  • If you have 10x haste gliding anywhere will be slower, walking is faster. But if your going of a ledge like from pineapple to red canon to mountain you should jump near the ledge going down to bamboo field, it will be faster.
  • FIELD MOVEMENT:
    Sunflower -> Strawberry
    Jump on the fence and go to the field.
    Strawberry -> Cactus
    Jump onto the WANTED sign, then jump up to the field.
    Strawberry -> Pumpkin
    Jump onto the WANTED sign, then go to the field.
    Pineapple -> Mountain top
    Jump on the memory match, to the ticket, then over to the moon amulet. Jump to the top of the moon amulet then get to the ramp. Simple from here.
    Cactus -> Mountain top
    Jump up the big cactus, then walk up the ramp to the field.

Bamboo field hack

If the stick bug is on the bamboo field you can stand on the black x which is on the ramp but right above the flowers which go under the ramp, this will make stick bug glitch and get stuck there. When the stick bug is running at you whilst your standing on the black x move away so you don’t get damaged. If its low level or on a low health which you can successfully kill before it moving anywhere else you can stand on the ledges of the top part or the ramp where the blue x are present, if your bees lose agro towards the stick bug jump back towards the stick bug then use glider in the amount of time that your bees gain agro on it and you can go back to the spot you were standing before.
