I keep all my kegs and stuff in sheds
Sheds have to compete for space with golden chicken coops
i only have 6 kegs because i dont care to make more so they're kept in one of the rooms in my house
im trying to save up to get all the expensive end game stuff this save haha
New maxed out farmhouse layout is cursed honestly
it's so big lol
Mainly because of expanded corner room
yeah
It overhangs the void
i turned that into a library, as per the image i shared above
or rather, i expanded the library already present in the corner room
the dining room addition is nice though
Like, you have a chunk of 1st floor that is just floating, with no ground floor below it
yeah but its a game so it doesnt matter
It matters to me 
this is my upper floor's layout. I actually really like the attic addition because it makes a nice master bedroom
Do you guys buy anything from the villager shops during the desert festival?
always
Hey I don't mean to bother anyone, but what is this beside the clock??? My friend had it show up while in the mines, but I don't know what it is, and I don't even know what I'd google to figure it out????
well, if its useful
Are the staircases from Kent worth the price? They cost 30 eggs
Oh thanks! I'll google that and see what they are. This is our first playthrough with the desert festival active, didn't realize the two were probably related! Thanks.
I don't think that's supposed to show up in regular mines 🤔
yeah, they're the currency used ot buy things at the desert festival
except for the travelling cart
depends
Also, that's nor eggs, the actual eggs are items in inventory
yes
That's egg level for the desert festival SC challenge
i've already been through five desert festivals so i'm starting to get the hang of it lol
mhm
So why is it present on mines lava level
this is one half of the festival at night
okay so that answers my second question! Its not in his inventory. But we're also not in the Skull caverns. He's in the regular mines. I looked on the wiki and can't find anything about the regular mines being involves (yet), so still kind of confused as to why its there, but i'm sure theres some use I just haven't found yet.
i think its jsut a glitch
CA probably just forgot to restrict the egg chance counter to the skull caverns
I just got a magic rock candy from a mystery box?!
Ahhhhh alrighty. We were just confused. Thanks for the help!
Lucky
weird
i just got a secret note in the mines that i can't seem to read
i hold it, right click on myself and nothing happens
grandpa is proud of me yay
What beautiful fishermen
Do their little word bubbles still pop up saying things like "I got a bite!"? That is hilarious
Yep!
lmao love it. Do you have mods? Curious what caused that to happen
oh my gf had this happen
used a tent on the first day of the derby I think?
Looks like someone already reported that bug. So weird that using the tent caused it.
Oh cool I was just gonna report it
did i read somewhere that in this update you can buy a recipe book? cause when i google it just shows me where i can buy the stardew cookbook haha
Bookseller, gives your all the queen of sauce recipes
You need the walnut room first though
Yeah, they said they were able to fish initially but eventually had issues with the fishing minigame not popping up too, so heads up that may happen to you too.
aah thats what im missing thanks
Does the booksellers inventory expand when you unlock the walnut room then?
Or just that one book?
Nope, only that book
Well hey its something. Do you remember how much it costs?
Idk, like around 25k i think
Spent so much money this save i shoulda done a joja playthrough
do you just need to unlock the room to get access to the book or is it related to a quest?
Paying the parrot felt kinda bad but hunting walnuts feels worse
Screw that "grow this crop then that crop then that other crop" guy that holds 15 walnuts hostage
You just need the room for the book
does anyone have a link to the guide on the free prize ticket during the stardew valley fair
I appreciate that yhe excess walnuts gave me just enough qi gems to buy 4 pressure nozzles
hi guys i think this is a new weapon??? so i'm gonna post it here (i'm new sorry)
is the ||holy blade|| better than the yeti's tooth???
it is new yes
Would slime ranching be worth it if the slimes gave 1233.5g per kill in a shed to bypass the 20 slime limit
You mean the one out of bounds by the bookseller location?
What are the best animals to use the golden crackers on? I know they dont work on pigs
Well pre perfection then lol
sheep can achieve some pretty insane money/day now iirc?
are fruit trees even worth it?
the cookbook is 50k btw
It feels like stuff like apples and oranges sell for jack shit
Thats neat. Be nice to use something besides sheep
?
Meant besides pigs lol
ah
Typing distracted
relatable
nevermind i dropped it :(
whoaa can someone tell me abt the books? the animation for them is so good too omg
I believe a maxed sheep with the animal professions starts printing 1880gold/day
as an income source no not really, but the greenhouse can take fruit trees so I plant any I get for free along the edge
From reddit, can't confirm: "I could leave the fair grounds by walking behind the general store . Once I was outside the fair grounds.. found another prize ticket behind the bookseller"
They claimed they had already found the ticket earlier on, so that was their second time getting one there.
yeah that's the post I was thinking of ty
No problem
imma just get rid of my fruit trees in exchange for more wild trees
Maybe thatll help curb my addiction to ancient fruit and let me grow more interesting things lol
Ahh I'm a little sad, I was hoping to see something new by seeing if I could use fairy dust or mystic syrup in the sewing machine but I guess you can't do that
If you need something more interesting slimes got a major buff in 1.6
I slapped a set of all the fruit trees in greenhouse for quest purposes personally
also u need 1 of each shipped for perfection
Mainly i just wanna use the greenhouse for more utility or gift based crops than sncient fruit
God knows i need to set it up for coffee for a year or so
My main farm is meadowlands but i still want a bit of crops there too
how does the green rain event start?
how many iridium sprinklers do you use for ginger island farm?
what bed and rug is that?
Randomly once every summer
it starts by summer between summer 6-20
iirc sheep outearns ancient fruit wine too even without animal crackers now?
or maybe it always did idk, I never bothered to check until 1.6
?
if you cram 12 golden cracker sheep into a deluxe barn the barn nets you 805gp/tile/day if you turn the iridium wool into cloth
is it difficult/very costly to reforge trinkets into their best version
Yes
yes
how many bars we thinking
the rates seem really bad
200ish per trinket?
likely easier to just farm SC for a max lvl trinket
Think all frogs are the same but dont quote me
I am not aware of any difference between frogs besides visual colors
they also don't give any loot so i kinda don't like them
I don't think they give xp either
the ice rod has been very nice to use, maybe the wheel can be better?
if you go for a crit build
How often does a slime mate per slime outside the shed
ice rod and fairy have been my favorites so far
heal
Would you like a blue ribbit or a green ribbit
i am currently attempting to collect 1 frog of every color
Nice
How do golden cracker sheep measure up against pigs? Are they about equal or are sheep just better? Assuming you have the all iridium forage profession
no because pigs have to have free space to wander around
if you have a few barns and like having your animals out grazing for asthetics then pigs do better
i think i would prfer golden cracker sheep, cause you dont have to harvests everyday with auto grabber
unlike pigs/truffle
but if you want to minmax income, then grazing land is land you can shove more barns of sheep into
It's from wizard's catalogue
money is very neglible the deeper you are in the game
you can get it from Krobus
Eh idk if id have more then 1 or 2 barns anyway
but yeah the biggest thing is sheep are very relaxing
autopetter + grabber means you only need to check them every once in a year
What about ostriches?
I alwa6s forget those are an option for barns too
Aee they any good?
In 1.6 you can breed the new money slimes to also drop diamonds, dropping 1233.5g on average when killed. Is this better than golden cracker sheep? A slime mates every 2.5 days, and theres no limit on how many slimes you can fit in a shed.
Sheep soubd like the most appealing option for the barn. Really not sure what to do with the coop before i reach golden chickens. All the coop animals are kinda meh
dinosaurs are cool 😎
But only one egg per week
but it does require the powerup
And they never get big
1 iridium egg worth 2100/week is still 300/day
And the drinking mayo meme only lasted a few irl days
you can hop when using watering can?!?!?
ostriches are 760/day which is a bit worse than sheep
it's new to 1.6 i think
being able to hop while charging a tool
hold the watering can and move around
Is there a good way to farm for crackers? I dont think i have enough yet for a full sheep barn
skull cavern/digging would be the best(?)
abi,,,,,, omg this feels bittersweet
i assume
skull cavern runs have been great for crackers in my experience
*on hard mode
ive tried regular mines + monster musk but the drops were just okay
fishing with treasure bait + tackle I think
So just the usual saving up jade and hitting floor 200 of skull cavern by 8 am
Meanwhile Sam if you marry Abigail
omfg hell yeah
its 7% chance from a fish chest
Doesn't look like Sebastian reacts any differently either
Thanks
strange bun
with a bunch of treasure chest/luck buffs you can get up to I think 65% chest chance?
weirdly enough i didnt get new dialog from pierre and caroline after i divorced abigail
think alex said: "i was bitter about you and hayley getting married, but i guess i can figure some things out"
so like 5% chance for a cracker per fish
That's pre 1.6 I think
as much as i love fishing i never liked grinding for treasure chests unless i have something else to do (e.g. active demetrius quests or stocking on specific fish) with skull cavern im getting like. 4 things done at a time and feels more active
the most wood ill ever have
that's fair
personally im attempting to get 1 of everything which means boots grind
i wanna get all the footwear stuff as well but i threw out a lot at the start including the slingshot
so maybe 1 of every hat
If i switch from pigs to sheep is there a compelling reason to keep the all iridiun forage profession?
you can just buy that back from the adv guild..
oh i can?
do you have a particular use for the alternative option
More wood
just woodchupper
so volcano dungeon is still frustrating
oh yeah, speaking of hats, it seems i could buy the elegant turban despite me not having the praire king achievements, (i couldnt buy from pre 1.6) is this a recent change or oversight with the addition of newer achievements?
More wood means less time decimating the ecosystem of cindersap forest
personally I got botanist to make forage take less inv space
Thats actually fair lol
oversight from them adding more achievements i think
it probably checks for a set number rather than "all"
grats
about 170 bars
where did you get that?
reforged a spare ice rod
with the tool/recipe you get from mastery thing
Anvil
yea
where did you get spare ice rod?
I didnt know perfect trinkets existed lol
just doing skull cavern runs
k
you could get multiples of trinkets
@chilly aspen You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels and share images in all channels!
like a lot
sorry was doing ginger island run
you can get them from monster drops/digging/fishing
Floor 80+ goated got like 3 from one floor once
In normsl mines
Each one has best possible stats but it can cost a lot to reforge some of them into the best version if they do get the best possible stats you will know because the reforge says perfect
It will also say perfect if it naturally drops with the best stats
yeah whats the deal with forging trinkets? bc i love my little fairy but i wish she was better
3 iridum bars per reforge
It will reroll the stats
and will it just randomly assign the trinket a new level? bc my fairy is level 3
Yes
yea
Can go up or down
hmmm might be worth it. whats it do for frogs?
If it’s an ice rod it will reroll the duration and frequency for example
Doesn't work on frogs or basilisk paws
For fairy box it will reroll the level
At least didn't when I tried
Basilisk paw I believe can’t be reforged
Can frogs?
i liked the frogs for a bit but they kept eating monsters i needed drops from like special slimes </3
2sec ill test
Ice rod is my fav
any tips on catching the glacier fish?
you can reforge frogs
Trap bobber
not the basillisk paw tho
the fairy's my fave, its like a free vampire ring
so i can have 4 other rings + crusader on my weapon, and the vampirism is basically covered by my little navi
Ahh why didn't it work for me. I sold off my extra dupe greens
i got a level 3 fairy box from a crate in the mines, but you can get trinets from fishing, killing monsters, etc
trying to find the exact location to catch it
k
you can reforge into the same trinket
maybe that happened?
tip of the arrowhead island in cindersap forest
I prob misclicked
or that
yea
Equip like a ring
Cool well thanks for clearing it up
it has a special spot
I have a couple in a fish tank still
to reforge you have to hold it*
oh
Sorry I was asking about forge not equip
Fish food
💯
Oooo I got this from a gold mystery box
Ever think about how Qi and Lewis are distributing bombs?
The mystery boxes can have bombs and mega bombs.
The ticket reward dispenser in Lewis' house also has mega bombs. "Good job helping the community, here's 8 mega bombs!"
Also, can you imagine if somebody besides us found a mystery box with the farm warp totem?
Just imagine touching a strange figure you found in a box and suddenly being teleported to some guy's farm.
To be fair, i think the farmer is the only one in town with a hoe, so he’s the only digging up artifact spots
You can get mystery boxes almost anywhere. I got some for chopping down a tree.
Presumably, for somebody normal they'd just climb the tree to get it.
Linus would definitely do that
I just checked.
Mystery boxes can be given as prizes for the trout derby and squidfest.
You can dupe skill books
This used to be a remix mines only sword all remix mines only sword can be gotten from mystery boxes now
Is panning worth a damn now? Ive legit never used it
Meant to be a reply there dunno why it didn’t reply
the layout for the Luau changed (im on year 2) . and was the wizard always on the rock over here on the left?
Iirc, only way to get the lucky ring.
you can get it in mines too
ive been trying to google "Wizard during luau" and havent gotten anything
I don't remember him being there before either.
They also changed where they hid the eggs in year 2!
omg did they 😭 I lost haha maybe that’s why
i did notice that lol. did my usual route and most of the eggs i knew about were all gone
Atleast I got my hat the first time :p
Looks like the loot is mostly just ores and the ring? So once you get the ring its basically useless since you geta statue that poops iridium
1.6 change I believe
Prob alternates by year
Ive once gotten 3 omnis 2 shirts 8 bone fragments and several ores from 1 pan it can give a lot now and it can spawn new spots
yea, which is really neat. i appreciate whens its a little different so it actually feels a little new each time
Iridium pooper is way later in game tho
It gives so much stuff now
Festivals now have odd and even year layouts you probably didn’t notice the eggs being in different spots
Well i have the iridium pooper so i gotta consider that lol. If it gives a lot and doesnt just give me like...3 iron ore than ig ill upgrade the glorified hat
im really just wondering what the wizard says tbh
I’ve always wanted to get on that rock
True, but at the same time it feels like they're trying to rig it against me!
I memorized those egg locations and suddenly they've all been moved?! That wasn't part of the deal!
Ya lol it's prob not much used to you other than to just upgrade it for the sake of upgrade. It can also get forged bonuses now too
I always wonder what the wizard says at events. But for some reason he's almost always inaccessible!
Why give him dialogue if you can't see it without cheating??
Well ill at least want the luck ring i think. More luck for my cavern runs
yea i think its a bit odd that there literally is no way of seeing it without cheating, but i think its neat because the wizard is so mysterious and stuff
Ya I've sold so many luck rings I've pulled so many.
do calico eggs dissapear after the festival?
its a melon in the winter
It's a powdermelon, what more do you want?
SO AWESOME
It's overrated, tbh.
Forage crops are worth more.
yea but like, powdermelon
Especially if you have the "always iridium" perk
is it true you get more xp from them?
how do i get this i need it now
level 10 foraging
Are smokers always good? I'm not sure how much fishing you do later on in the game
oh ur right
Easter eggs for noclippers
idk why i thought u meant the crops
mr qi:
They cost 1 coal to use and double the value of your fish.
Smoked fish also benefits from artisan (+40%) and I think the angler buffs still apply.
In short, only worth it if the value you get out is more than the coal you used.
Sounds decent
Tyty
You wouldn't wonder about it if you could.
imo it would've been a lot more fitting to the 'vibe' of joja if the perfection waivers were 499,999 instead of 500,000
that number is ugly
ok buddy 🤣
that would prob be the point yeah 
Anyone know what exactly specific bait does? It says it "increases the chance" of getting a specific fish but like by how much
I think anything less than 100g isn't worth it.
200g is alright with buffs.
300g and above is good.
by x%
me smoking my sardines
i tested it, its around double
n the seaweed with expanded LOL
No idea, but in my experience you're more likely to catch that specific fish than anything else when using it (except blobfish, that didn't work for me).
i just got 2 cursed male mannequins from a haunted skull 😭😭
does it use the bait every catch, or every catch you get that fish?
every catch
every catch
I mean my co-op partner is getting almost all gold+ quality fish so I think almost all are above that base price
Wait do you not waste it if you pull out early?
got my first mossy seed :]
You keep if you pull early, iirc
What do you use mossy seeds for?
heck yeah!! the wild trees are so nice looking
I got a seed too
planting wild trees, which can either be the normal jungly looking ones or the beanstalk ones that drop ferns
It depends on the fish.
Some aren't worth more than 200g even when they're iridium.
Can you replant after you use the seed?
yes!
Ah I see, I'll keep a look out then
I just got them randomly without the green rain. Can they plant from the leave-less trees in autumn?
Do you guys think its worth making catfish bait early? Or is it better to just sell the catfish for the money
some trees will lost their leaves in fall and wild trees from the summer storm will remain in fall, so it sounds like you just cut one down!
The bookseller sells a book (iirc, costs 3,000) that'll unlock the ability to see the value of any item you mouse over.
Very convenient
^
Well it was already planted. Like it spread like other trees
(I'm playing modded so I see it anyway :'))
it’ll spread seeds the same way other trees do :3
UI info suite for the win, the price catalogue is pierre’s only other loved gift of you can’t get him calamari though 😉
Yeah my file was like at the tail end summer so I'm having to wait a long time for green rain
Personally my fav book is Ol' Slitherlegs just for the QOL
CA tyyyy ❤️ i have always loved the strawverry decals
Wait, that's not a fryer. That's a frying pan!

that’s a nice one, i think my faves are Treasure Aprajsal Guide, The Diamond Hunter, and Monster Compendium that i’ve gotten so far
ok but besides thattttt
Using a fryer as a weapon would be so goofy
Rapunzel
Does anyone here like the wizards catalogue? honestly i love the magic themed furniture
Now imagine it's like the ones with oil bathes
meee lol. i love strawberries aesthetically but could not stand to marry P*nny
I feel so "behind" in my save file but it's whatever I guess. I wish I could have gotten to the desert in time to plant more star fruit + I still havnt upgraded my house OR gotten barns yet
it's stressful. I also havnt gotten a start on preserve jars or kegs, or my personal interest in beehouses. Atleast I'm at the bottom of the mines
oh and I also havnt even really been focusing on talking to npcs that much either 
penny is good but i dont wanna marry her either so im like oooo
Take your time, i'm also really "behind" in everything, but there's no rush for anything
To preface I've played a single player file about a year ago and I was pretty productive then, which is why this feels so horrible
Are diamond slimes worth it
Just cause in comparison this feels really slow
Not sure where to ask this question, but I'm wondering if there are any updated guides on what to do with fruit and veg with the new machines in 1.6? I'm still struggling to make decent gold, so would like to try and focus on building up a good money making path, but not sure whether to sell crops raw, or invest time into processing them - but what's the best process for each to maximise profits?
I've never taken my time to make my house or the farm look presentable, today i decided to pretty it all up and it's been fun
I've been trying to take it a bit easier but I can't help but feel like I could be doing more 
As far as ik.
Smoker for fish 150g+
Dehydrator good for when you don't have alot of jars/kegs + have alot of berries for quick money early game
Otherwise default to normal profits, dehydrator is less money but quicker and late game fishing isn't really that common.
I hope that made sense
smoker for when the fish's price is high enough you'd be willing to spend 1 coal to double it
how are you going to get fire quartz early game?
Are diamond slime sheds worth it
Processing is nice if you have a large amount of low quality or cheap price crops because as long as you have the equipment it can run mostly in the background minus the time it takes to load the machines and remove the finished products.
100g is a bit low if you consider the cost of buying coal. 100g for 10 wood y1, 150g for coal y1, 250g for coal y2.
200g is a good minimum.
You can get a dehydrator from shroom cave also, if you grind mines you can't get there not too bad
If you have high value crops that will take a long time to process it is worthwhile aging them in casks while you do other things.
That does make sense, I think 😄 How many jars/kegs are considered 'a lot'? I see some people with hundreds, but that seems excessive 😄
I like to fill my cellar with 120 kegs since the greenhouse holds 120 ancient fruit
This is the fith time i asked this and haven’t gotten a response
A row of them is fine early game, a shed of them for mid game, and every available space in the game for late game, haha
big shed full of kegs to start with
Christmas good luck day, RIP SC visit 😦
are different processes preferred for different types of crops though? I never know how to process things that can be jellied, dried, bottled, etc
have u considered that no one here knows the answer
Could be
blueberries and cranberries can be dehydrated since you will never have enough kegs or jars to process them any other way
Jars have the best gold for time versus kegs but kegs are preferred for high base value that you are going to spend a lot of time with it working in the background anyway
well the more valuable a process is the longer it also takes
this is cute emily ❤️
so the more of that machine you're going to need to keep up with processing
should i age my ancient fruit wine now that i have a bunch of pigs with botanist?
won't run out of money throughout the month because of them
I just harvested a crop of blueberries too, so that's good timing!
Sounds like Jars are better for early game crops? I'm still at Summer Y1 for this one (have got through Y1 on my first play through, but started again with 1.6)
does anyone have any tips on how to get enough clay for the silo without legacy randomization?
personally I don't feel casks are ever worth it
Jars are better early game period, as they are much easier to craft than kegs
Dehydrators are purely speed.
They process 5 fruit/mushrooms (not vegetables) in 1 day.
They give (7.5 x fruit/mushroom value) + 25. Which, since it takes 5 fruit per use, is effectively multiplying the value of your 5 fruit by (1.5 x fruit value) + 5
Fish smokers cost 1 coal to use, so it's not worth it unless your fish is worth more than the coal (but smoked fish also benefits from artisan +40% and fisher/angler buff to fish value)
Kegs and jars are pretty much the same as they've been before.
Anything worth 50 or less goes in a jar. and takes 2-3 days to process.
Any fruit worth more than 50 can be put in a keg, but it takes 7 days to process.
Vegetables don't benefit as much from kegs as fruit do (2.25x vegetable value vs 3x fruit value) but they process in 4 days instead of 7.
Casks make money, and if you have enough kegs you wont miss the wine anyway
basically hoeing and geodes
ok but I could be using that money now to scale income faster than the amount of money casks give per day
Waiting two whole months for a batch of wine to only get double the value
I've been trying to compile my own summary of notes, so I can try to focus attention on more productive activities, but I'm surprised there isn't a summary guide online somewhere - there are some amazing detailed guides just for kegs, jars, casks, etc etc - but it seems that sometimes it's best to just do these few fruits here, and these few veg there..
Not worth it
hoeing dirt still gives clay, it's just not so predictable you can clay farm it.
In the same timespan you could make 8 more batches of wine lmao
Dont wait for casks, just forget they exist for 2 months, and be happily surprised
amazing! that's a great baseline to go by!
that's not happy at all
If you want my advice for early game money, start fishing.
When it rains, go to the forest river and catch a bunch of catfish. Early game I got about 4k-6k in a single day.
Thing is you can make more wine AS the cask does its thing.
that's money I would've preferred to have 2 seasons ago
^
I've just started going to the ocean most days in summer, and planning to try the bait maker with pufferfish/cucumbers
what are you even doing that money is so tight?
25% profit margin run?
it has absolutely nothing to do with money being tight
i just have better uses for that money
I also mainly used dehydrators until y2.
They're easier to make than jars/kegs, especially with the crystarium for 25k.
if i don't need that money now then i don't need that money in 2 months either anyway
I do remember reading somewhere on reddit about time for profits too - sometimes things just take so long to process, and I need gold for my coop and barn upgrades 😄
How do you use a crystarium?
almost every action in the game is profit positive... i dont see why people hate casks so much
Insert shiny rock into machine, wait x amount of days, ???, free shiny rock
i feel so sigma!
Because they take a lot of time.
It's my money and I need it now!
being profit positive doesn't make every action the same
I've been making tea saplings until now, but the wood cost is too much
Again, no one wants to wait two months for their wine to only get double value
Even by then, by those moments you're waiting, you would probably already have more kegs than your basement can fit casks
I see I see ty
Might as well just sell the wine as it is if a major chunk of them isn't even gonna get aged to begin with
casks are still cool imo because its satisfying to finally sell them when they're ready
Tea saplings lose a lot of profitability after year 1 ends (with the new nerf it got).
Not to mention I've got eggs/mayo, and milk - but I'm holding onto a lot of that until I get the cheese maker
well of course you can make more wine than you can age? bottlenecking with casks is not a good idea
a full set of 120 ancient fruit wine is 277k gold, storing it away to get another 277k gold in half a year means I can't buy a barn of sheep instead and start getting 316k gold/month every month from the sheep printing wool
admittedly I did install a mod that pays out tea saplings at the old price - I felt jilted missing out on that just because I'm new to the game 😄
What tier is your axe on?
Cause if you can break stumps but not logs, you can still get into secret woods by using the chair.
buy the barn and age the next batch
lol you sell without artisan?
They're probably profession-swapping for the right moments.
not with those numbers
I still need to upgrade it one more time... and I have played with the Deep Woods mod previously too, which was an amazing addition - frustrating that there's no mines equivalent for wood in vanilla
awww ❤️ ❤️
which part am I not using artisan
oh nevermind
sebastian<3
sorry you're right, I forgot artisan for the cloth
Somehow, I thought you couldn't get into those stalls.
I just assumed the villagers teleported in when I wasn't looking.
I could've been getting 450k g/month buying a sheep barn with the wine actually
What does it mean if a book has a thumb icon over it in my hotbar?
means u already used it
thanks
agree, I can't wait for profits at this stage, but also want to find that effort/profit balance for early game, otherwise it's too slow and grindy
it'll just give u xp if u use it
I always see player-time as the biggest bottleneck for making money. thats why casks are great: they dont need to be checked more than twice per year. meanwhile you can do other things
was wondering because I got the wood one and was worried that reading it twice would do nothing even if I don't have maxxed out foraging skill yet
anyway the point I'm getting is when you set up a greenhouse of ancient fruit wine, the first few shipments of wine are enough to scale your income to the point money is irrelevant
throwing it into a cask means you just added a half a year wait
Ginger Island moment
Mfw the island can fit 700+ crops and your basement can't even fit 200 casks
that wine will finish aging and then you take out and... what do you even need that money for now?
if money is irrelevant then wait time is too
it wasn't when you put the wine into the cask
and the kegs are empty now...for more ancient fruit wine...to sell...as the casks cask.
Stardew should definitely have more cask space
why are people fighting over this 😭
was it? i dont even buy the celler before i get my GH full of Ancient fruit
It's funny how the only nerf kegs got was making it only available at Farming 8
CA forgot farming is the easiest profession to level up
bruh a tree just dropped a whole walnut end table lmao
I'm stuck at farming level seven 😭
fishing tho 🗣️
clearly destroyed someone's secret picnic spot
Fishing SUCKS
oooo i found a parrot egg
I love fishing
No one will change my mind
Facts
for some ppl yeah
Does bring up a point instead of casking it up in that basement: What are the thought of placing kegs in such basements instead, yanaimean? That is if you're restricting artisan production to within the confines of the farm itself.
I dont boot up the game without a minigame skip mod for fishing
I put my kegs in my basement
I'd rather spend 3 days killing shit for Combat lvl 10 than spend 2 hours for Fishing lvl 3 🗣️
it can hold 125 at max while being walkable so lines up pretty well with greenhouse's 120 spaces
I always feel so out of place in online stardew groups cause I don't like minmax shit or really care that much about speed
i prefer sheds because they have a square footprint
Don't use the basement when sheds are a thing
You can use both!!
there's a limited number of things to talk about in a game with finite content
Mods:
theorycrafting/minmaxing happens to have the biggest variety in topics to talk about
this is clearly not #modded-stardew
At the end of the day: I'm still using casks because I'm a diversifier.
and even then there's still a limited number of mods in existence

i like minmaxing QoL
holy shit out of 10 pumpkins harvested, 8 of them were gold quality
You're forgetting the unfathomable "creativity" people can have in making mods
It's essentially infinite
"Challenge" Worm Bin? What?
I only needed two more for the bundle
the ability to think up a mod and the ability to write it into code are not the same thing
Yeah and
Honestly same. Folks can play how they like but the derision for players who don’t minmax can be…a lot
no one here's deriding people for not minmaxing though?
I like to do relationships fast, but other than that I'm pretty laid back/average pace
what's derision
I'm stupid
if you cant beat the game day one you should quit in shame
Can be. Didn’t say it was happening in this moment
I just give the townsfolk loved gifts on their birthdays, because the moment I recognize I can still reach max hearts just by doing that...and not talking to them (it'll take longer due to talkless decay slightly) I won't change that approach. "Here's your favorite Iridium Bar, Clint. Now I won't speak to you for another year. later."
lol
You need 10 for just one person to get to max hearts
Just got the cave jelly after my second cast into the floor 60 pond. I'm very happy I can get the smoker now 
And they're pretty rare to get
you can give them on birthdays for 3 hearts..
1 loved gift + 2 teas almost maxes someone
On someone's birthday, 2 is fine enough, then a loved gift or something.
Ah yes, waiting an entire year for three hearts
I like to talk to them, gift on bdays, and if their friendship is below 2 hearts and it's year one, I gift em once a week
you can also talk to them inbetween man, 3 hearts from one day is the point here.
for one person
just feed the tea to whoever's birthday is next?
Also, those teas won't take up a gift slot...you can keep teaing them a townsfolk again and again, for example, "Oh, dang, Clint. I forgot to give you stuff. Here's 2 teas, and a loved gift, alright bye forever."
You're saying that like Stardrop Tea isn't difficult to amass but aight
I have 6.
so i used a dragon tooth to learn a bit about these random attributes, but, is there any explanation for these?
+25% damage to slimes I think?
Slime Slayer in particular does more damage to Slimes, yes
Just been going back over all the incredible helpful things you've all shared and taken notes - thank you all! I didn't feel any of it was focused on minmaxing, but finding a balance of effort-profit while you can still enjoy other aspects of the game ... it's good to have some momentum
also, the secret note that talks about tool enchantments do not include the pan, so...
was assuming 10 stars here
a good chunk of villagers only need 8, in which case 1 tea works
self-explanatory enough, at least
Slime Slayer a bit pointless when the slime charmer ring is a thing tbh
this also assumes you're doing it on every villager when some have super accessible loved gifts who don't need tea
or well "need"
It's great during the process of unlocking Slime Charmer Ring though 😄
Isn't it still 2 tea and a loved gift if you start from scratch tho
Indeed, it's not like a player is trying to, for example, max friendship every townsfolk within 1 year, amirite?
yeah, i was just trying to find more information about all of the options, and also what "Fisher" does to my iridium pan?? do i literally get some fish when i use it lol
gotta check what else it could be
I once used a tea just to get Alex to eight hearts to give him a bouquet since id bought one earlier in the day and I thought normally gifting would get him there
You catch fish while panning iirc
Apparently your pan gets big enough that it can fit a whole ahh fish
personally I like talking to all the npcs on festivals for their dialogue
so I usually have them hover around 3-4 hearts anyway
is it written anywhere in game? is what i'm wondering
Still doesn't change the fact that you need 2 tea and a loved gift from scratch
No
do you normally have 0 hearts with everyone?
Y'all are basically implying you don't want to gift anyone until their birthday lol
If you're just gonna use tea
huh did the journal scrap not get updated?
you are the only person implying that here
please stop inserting words into other people's mouths thanks
we've been saying that we also gift them and talk to them other times
uhuh
is there something wrong with that statement?
I mean, even without tea...I'll still only gift everyone....on their birthdays since an Iridium loved gift is 4 hearts, each heart is 250 points, and the talkless decay is only 2 point-deduction each day or something like that.
it's an objectively true statement of the worst case scenario
Meanwhile, Prize Ticket can only be sold for 1G. Thanks, Lewis. (Son-of-a...)
its a piece of paper he printed after all
checked, it did not. that's kinda annoying
could you always kiss your spouse as soon as you got engaged?
either that's new or I'm stupid
does anyone know when the switch update is coming? been looking and so excited!
That's hot.
You can kiss your spouse once a day
Wait nvm all the time
But you only get hearts from the first kiss
I know, but I was talking about when you're technically not married
Hmm don't know about that
cause I was clicking Alex to see if he had any new lines after getting the pendant and accidentally kissed him
did emily just turn me in to someone from starwars ??
got Bug Killer and Slime Slayer onto Alex's bat, go husband, protect the house
LMAO
wait you got two enchantments onto one weapon?
oh one's an innate enchantment ok
Does using the legacy seed option prevent events?
Emily turned me into a trash can 
guys should I do the ultimate troll and say I don't feel the same way (I just proposed)
Its over anakin, i have the high ground
how dare you hurt him
im like oooo thisis a good fit emily
Turned me into a army guy... i think she tried to enlist me
this dialogue is seriously so funny after giving a pendant though because "really? you feel the same way??" and shit AFTER I PROPOSED? WAS THE PENDANT NOT CLEAR ENOUGH?
did the SDV fair spinner get changed to be 50/50
💀💀 she said “you’re serving in this look (literally)”
Fr lmao
I got a very Link vibe costume 😂😂🥰
Is time freezing while reeling in the fish actually gone now or is it my imagination
i can see that too
I love that CA is just a big nerd like the rest of us.
damn just got caught by Alex digging in his trash can 😭
naughty
i bring you all the pure lack of joy i am feeling after reforging my frog trinket into a Prismatic one and shoving it back into the anvil accidentally
The wasted iridium bars 
oh i just closed the game and will redo the day later, idk
this hurts
How much dk sheep make
Isn’t it predetermined? Maybe you’ll just need to roll the same amount again to get it after resetting ^^
what book is missing
we match, i can sleep
what is the requirement for marnie ever selling her book?
also the one you're missing is Treasure Appraisal Guide
Mystery Boxes can now be found????
did CA lower the levels for the parrot
this is a new one 
what
I decided to move the mannequin out into the cave instead of keeping it in the house , it kept moving spots and the last spot it moved to was next to my side of the bed and at 1st i thought it was sebby moving it but ohhh no i looked at it again its a cursed mannequin

it's the happy birthday mod I think. Harvey tried to give me a bday gift haha
happy birthday, have a glitch!
what do you mean?
i cant remember
better than the leak I got from Leah LOL
Tie dye shirt gives me boobs
I saw vids saying that the parrot trinket can be level 1-4 but I'm only getting level 1 and 2 when I reroll iit
hm, i do have a lv 4 one
how long did it take you to get it? I tried rerolling for about a ~100 or so but only got max level of 2
when you think Haymaker is such a crappy sword enchantment, but then the green rain comes and suddenly your animals are entirely set for winter 😄
I think there are external.requirments for parrot level
I got super lucky. I found a level 3 parrot and a level 5 fairy.
I think I only rolled like 20-30 times for mine
But prismatic frog took a 1/2 stack+ of iridium
is prismatic frog just for the looks?
Where can I find mystery boxes now that Qi came across the screen overnight?
Yeah, it's just personal preference
everywhere
I like the way they look in the jungle tank
you can add frogs to the tank?!
Yes!!
nice!
sorry
By doing anything I'm pretty sure (mining, combat, fishing, etc.)
My lil buddies 
Oh alright I see thank you!
adorable!
huh, was the Big Nice Frog in ginger island rewritten?
it speaks so normally now
i liked it better before i think
you need to be in year 2 (only requirement from what I recall)
hm, i'll try going back then
also, your farmer looks like Ariel. 😄
Jdsjsjs I was thinking the same thing the other day 
I must've unconsciously had her in mind x)
so, I saw mention of fishing in waterfalls. Surely the only place you can do that is in town, right?
or am I missing something at the bottom of the woods?
why did mr qi just fly by in a biplane
there’s one in cindersap
Anyone else think the farm cave needs some kind of endgame upgrade? Compared to everything else you get, the farm cave kinda gets lost in the shuffle of statues that shit diamonds, towers that yeet you across the map, sheep that make you millions, and all the other whacky endgane stuff
Does the dehydrator factor in the quality of the mushroom or fruit
Nope. Just that base value.
are sheep the best animals to give the crackers to?
sheep?? you use sheep??
At the start, I think so.
anyway
it’s so cute even if it’s useless
Late game anyway
the fruit cave is so fun to decorate
especially with the new mushroom logs
Well, that fucking sucks
Probably why mushroom logs aren't effected by botanist
1.6 introduced a bunch of fun stuff yet all of it dies in the face of artisan when it comes to money
Is it possible to extend green rain Like you can extend storms?
It's great for bulk not quality fruits like berries and stuff
Stuff you'd normally just sell flat
you can fish waterfall by the hat mouse
does anybody know if you meet Krobus at the summit now or still no?
I think in this case it's more profitable to turn the fruits into juice etc
Only the mushrooms might benefit from the dehydrator
Time is a factor
I'm not holding up a keg for a low profit juice
Can chuck 5 in a dehydrator and clear stock way quicker
but only the top, not in the waterfall?
or at it's base
this is the only place I can post this video of my chicken going insane, so enjoy my chicken going insane
Friend potion
entered and left the coop, he's still doing it
if the travelling cart lady smuggled her goods out of the Gotoro Empire how does she have a painting of my wife
treasure appraisal book fromthe artefact troves
Clearly your wife is a beauty of great renown, known as far away as the Gotoro Empire
I want to upgrade my copper pan but Clint doesn’t list it as an option, does anyone know what unlocks it? (or is this a glitch?)
it doesnt get upgraded
its pretty useless
is the fossilized tail harder to get this update? I haven't had much luck from the 20%
(In all seriousness, on my list of mods to look for/maybe make, is one that lets you commission Leah for those paintings)
NVM I IMMEDIATELY FOUND IT 😭
I haven't noticed much because mine is just on silver but it's been giving me more stuff than normal
I can get like 10 iridium while panning
The upgraded pan is pretty useful from what I’ve read, I’d take it everywhere IF I HAD ONE 
i just finished the community center for the first time
i literrally just threw the pan into my chest of no return
Does the front trinket count for kills?
I’m a moron it didn’t show up because I was wearing it instead of holding it
Frog
new shortcut in maze
I mean, it cuts on time...That's how I see it.
so do I just fish at the top of the waterfall by the mouses house for the extra fish?
Ty so wait for bookkeeper and coconuts ... I'm sick of coconuts
I think I found mine in an artefact trove or a geode, I'm not 100% back though
Yeah, its artefact troves, mystery boxes and bookseller
i wish the meowmere was stronger
its a shame that even though its hard to get its so low level
Just transmog it on to a good weapon
Meowmere as a galaxy hammer would go crazy
does winter sometimes get lightning storms?\
No
darn it i waited too long to get battery packs
i cant even get solar panels cuz i need ginger island to unlock them and i need batteries to get ginger island
OK WAIT
Time to befriend Pam
You can befriend pam she sometimes gives you batteries
iridum bat drops
5%
and i hate pam
so nahhh
step 1: spend today grinding the little bouncy guys to get burgular ring
step 2: spend tomorrow to get staircases from jade
step 3: kill at least 47 iridium bats to get odds in my favor (9.75% per bat)
im a genius
Is it just me or the sea jelly is the hardest to obtain of all jellies?
What mastery should i unlock first
Farming
Farming
the mastery unlocks are really based on preference, but imo farming and foraging are the best. the statue of blessings is amazing
mining is also good, you can get a daily blessing that makes you immune to bombs
It’s not even hard. You fish and auto hook it, when you get a fish just press escape and throw another line
i havent got ginger island as yet, so what would the dwarvern forge do
nothing for now
Do you think you’ll transmog it?
OH YM GO DI DIDNT REALIZE HOW BADLY I NEEDED IT UNTIL I MADE A BIG CHEST
THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER OH MY GOD
you need GI items for the recipe
Iridium scythe makes all other mastery’s very time efficient and happens just by the side
yeh
I'm in multiplayer, so time passes and is wasted during the fishing minigame
5, one for each skill
Yeah but you don’t need to do the fishing mini game
is this where u catch goby or is it elsewhere?
is it fine if instead of planting in fall 1 year one, i plant the day after
into the lake townwards
should i get 2 iridium bands?
bottom of the waterfall
or just 1
just one
Youll get uour harvests 1 day later but chances of it doing much is pretty low
ty
so further north?
Once you can combine them always go with two
Is it possible to get iridium fish from the submarine yet?
idk im boutta go in it tonight so ill lyk
it always was?
Really? I always maxed out at gold
same place, but on on the lake at the bottom of the waterfall
ye i got it, thx
Thought there wasn't enough space for the good fishing tiles
perfect catches increase the quality by one, so do quality bobbers
hmm I see
Here's where I caught it if I recall
or at the bottom of the bigger waterfall on the left
ggs
I'm not that far yet
how do you get down there??
hold w/a/s/d while casting to move the bobber
I use a controller
ok
Fish downwards from above, aiming the line
show of hands who has the leprechaun hat 
I just learnt that you can just right click a chest while holding a big chest and they'll switch places and loot
WHAT
hii i´m sorry for my english, but can anyone tell me about the desert festival? i just got the game for the first time and i don't know much about it but i know that it just updated
how much do you know about the community center?
once you repair the bus you can access a 3 day long festival in the desert with a unique currency, challenges, and items to obtain!
it’s basically impossible in year 1, but when you go i suggest bringing your weapon, pickaxe, fishing rod, and food!
i know that i have get some things to complete
so as you complete some quests you'll eventually gain access to the vault area, where it uses money to complete and the reward is fixing the broken bus that's laying in the road between your house and the town
the bus takes you to the desert where the event happens, I won't spoil your fun though because the desert is a very cool area
i need to unalive someone why the weapon?
you want the spoilers? it's ||the skull cavern, an area sort of like the mines but harder, the event is basically centered around you doing a run there in each of the three days to get rewards||
||spooky monsters||
do not use the weapon on Mayor Lewis
use the weapon on Pierre :)
It's kind of ironic that there's an entire festival around that but ||the farmer is the only person who ever actually goes inside||
he looks nice
there's an Abigail line which I'm not sure if spouse exclusive where she says ||she would go in but then she saw the food stand||
isnt he?
||hey that’s not true there’s also Emily!||
he’s a scammer
he claims your produce as his own and upsells it by like 200% to the townspeople
he's a complete hypocrite, a scammer and just a bad person in general
what
everyone in this town has dirt on them somewhere except for the kids
what did harvey do :(
this feels personal
harvey’s just got anxiety leave him out of this
except for the best guy in the whole town sorry harvey
full day of grinding dust sprites and i forgot it was monday.. i need staircases this week, chat is it over?
i have to reset all dat work
why reset?
Why would you grind them? They're already dust!
and I guess Emily since she's not really there in a spiritual state half the time
is he the guy with glasses?
because its too late to go to the desert
yeah but why would you reset your day now if it’s monday?
isn't desert jade trade on sunday
he’s the doctor with the brown hair and moustache, he’s very sweet
? no i really thought it was monday
no it’s sunday
rip
let me play on the smallest violin for you
he looks so cute
oh no we got another one
he’s very cute, he’s a bit of an awkward dork
and he’s one of the oldest people you can marry, he’s meant to be in his 30s
plus everyone on tiktok is going crazy for him right now because of an animatic of him to the hozier song Too Sweet
30's and still looking like 20 bro had interest in dermatology
i love this song
i dislike harvey as a spouse, he the type of guy to make you pay the bill even though hes a doctor
@cloud oyster You leveled up to Farmer. You're now a prettier shade of blue. Thanks for sticking around!
ooo
but hes so nice :(
hes makes you pay him for medical care even though YOU MARRY HIM
he doesnt get a lot of business people only go to the doctor once a year let him be
where i live doctors are kind of poor so i understand
imagine if you were a doctor and only got 24 patients a year you'd be broke too
hes a 30 year old man scared to go into the kids halloween museum
then he can move! he can make so much more elsewhere
SO IS ABIGAIL
at some point you gotta realize that equipment is not free baby girl
ABIGAIL IS A 30 YEAR OLD MAN TOO /J
Abigail is so cool
who is abigail?
abigail is the #1 most married villager, with sebastian at #2 and i believe emily or haley are #3
purple hair goth girl
at some point you gotta realize that he charges me 1k gold every time i get knocked out (very often), hes well off enough to buy it
she 30?????
really?? I just like her because of the whole armor and sword and magic thing she has going on
i´m sorry
the spouses are mostly in their 20s, but harvey elliott and shane are in their 30s
he has to do emergency surgery on you every time from how obliterated you are when you come through his door
i thought it was the emo boy
hes a doctor, he can pay for his wifes surgery
emo boy is sebastian :) hes the most married male
emo boy is Sebastian, robin and demetrius's son
so summary: players like goths
majority of players are guys who like the manic pixie goth girl who plays video games
personally i wish i could marry robin or the wizard
Haley gang
I've seen someone make their house attic themed like sebastian and it was so cool actually
understandable
bubbles i wish i could marry caroline
hoping to find that image again sometime
fun fact! ||sebastian's bedroom originally had a b*ng in it, but a part of it was removed to become a vase as seen in his room now :)||
it was in his spouse room too right
there's gotta b a mod for it
robin also has a few lines of dialogue relating to this
yep
there is iirc, she replaces like penny or somethin
Eliot looks really pretty but at the same time really selfish
everyone wants to marry the taken moms
but i haven’t looked for a proper one where new like cutscenes and whatnot
I'm telling you that if I was able to bag robin I would, leah's there for that but she doesn't compare
i think it is his face
still so funny to me that jodi isnt an option when her name is literally the slang word for an unfaithful military wife
like i want a cutscene where u have a nice tea date with caroline
jodi's only on the start of her journey there
Leah is just Diet Robin
wheres the love for spaghetti? the tasteful fur coat? the emo son?
Leah could never make me that brilliant orange double bed
i mean we don’t know how long kent was in the military
a what? help me im not an english speaker
||uhhh a special vase you do drugs with||
is he a bad choice to marry?
okay i got it
