Strategy: reach Genius, chase Queen Bee

Pangram first. One pangram is often 15–25% of the total score. Test common prefixes (UN-, RE-) and suffixes (-ING, -ED, -LY, -TION), then fill the middle with the remaining hive letters.
Work the two-letter list. For each starting pair (LE-, LA-, TR-…), brainstorm the longest word first. Long words hide the remaining pangrams.
Milk the suffixes. If the hive holds E, D, I, N, G or S, every base word usually extends into -ED, -ING or plural forms for cheap points.
Count down to Genius. Genius is 70% of max — with the pangram banked, roughly two-thirds of the remaining words gets you there. Use the calculator above to pace yourself.
Queen Bee is a marathon. Finding all 100% needs the obscure tail (archaic verbs, variant spellings). Save it for a slow day with the finder open.
