[tribal gorge]

These do stay but only in main entrance?

And the forge

[mellow atlas]

yea outside the volcano -

[chilly bloom]

Everything stays at the forge

[mellow atlas]

don't wanna count areas that reset

[chilly bloom]

Only when within the volcano does stuff reset

[eternal linden]

I don't know if I should do 50 loved gifts or 4 prismatic shards

[mellow atlas]

to be fair leaving stuff inside a volcano is illogical

[tribal gorge]

50 loved is much more realistic early game

[chilly bloom]

Are you able to do decent skull caverns?

[mellow atlas]

do you have SC supplies?

[eternal linden]

As far as I am aware yes

[chilly bloom]

You say like the nut room is early game

[chilly bloom]

Then the shards are way easier

[tribal gorge]

Personally I wouldn't do either of those

[eternal linden]

I want a cool weapon though

[chilly bloom]

Ydy, the shard one is free gems

Shards only have so many uses

[mellow atlas]

50 loved gifts is doable at that point tbh, but getting the shard quest out of the way is like lifting a weight off of your shoulders

[eternal linden]

True

[chilly bloom]

Better to get galaxy souls from dangerous sc or mines

Or even trading for them

[eternal linden]

Oh... I will keep that in mind for the other two

Wait can they be enemy drops?

[tribal gorge]

Yes

[chilly bloom]

Spending 120 gems for marginally better weapons when galaxy are already killing everything is wasteful

[eternal linden]

Oh wild

[chilly bloom]

Yeah

And they’re decently common too

Influenced by luck

You can even see large slimes in sc with them in them like cakes

[eternal linden]

In that case I am doing the 4 shards

[gray oriole]

Also dragonglass weapons are cool and may or may not be better than infinity with innate enchants thrown in

[tribal gorge]

For crit probably yeah

[steady narwhal]

Yep they are

[chilly bloom]

They pretty much are though rely on rng to get

[mellow atlas]

infinity weapons are still everything you may ever need

[tribal gorge]

Currently running +75% crit enchant, +8 crit chance, and both professions for crit in combat

[gray oriole]

But theyre not cool

[eternal linden]

Is the statue of endless fortune good to get?

[chilly bloom]

Honestly galaxy are, it doesn’t even make sense to upgrade beyond the achievement

It already kills everything

[tribal gorge]

It's a meh

[mellow atlas]

you got a point

[chilly bloom]

Nothing in stardew has much health

[steady narwhal]

True

[chilly bloom]

Not for most, it’s a decent reminder for birthdays

[steady narwhal]

You could even do forest sword and it'll still do fine in dangerous SC

[mellow atlas]

you could spend that million buying junk from the travelling cart and you'd get loved gifts for everyone, the question is, are you willing to pay a million for convenience?

[eternal linden]

I use pam for free signs now

[gray oriole]

Wait u can pick up the signs she leaves?

[chilly bloom]

Yeah Honeslty all you have to do is eat

[eternal linden]

yeah

[gray oriole]

Oshit

[chilly bloom]

Yeah

[ocean temple]

(hello I am testing the bot since it broke in here)

[gray oriole]

Where is she even getting all these signs lol

[ocean temple]

!sprinkler

[unkempt dome]

To use this command, type !sprinkler.

[chilly bloom]

But you can just craft them basically for free

It’s like 15 wood or smt?

[gray oriole]

Ok but stealing them is more funny

[eternal linden]

Yeah but still, free stuff

[tribal gorge]

Ding Ding Ding Where's pressure nozzle

[gray oriole]

Its not about having a sign, its that theyre stolen ones

[chilly bloom]

Because it’s less obvious

[mellow atlas]

plus sign, square, big square

[chilly bloom]

It’s meant to be used primarily in new farmers

Where that isn’t allowed to be posted

[mellow atlas]

retaining soil is still so much better because you get marginally better results

it's also cooler than having the water thing

expensive but cool

[chilly bloom]

Only for regrowing crops

[mellow atlas]

yea ofc

[chilly bloom]

And it’s often not worth the cost

[gray oriole]

Doesnt help that processing ignores quality and a lot of the most profitable/useful crops dont interact well with speedgro

[tribal gorge]

Deluxe retaining soil for AF is best

[chilly bloom]

At least not for the mainland

[verbal cedar]

How do I get something better for weapons, I've been stuck with a lvl 7 yeti tooth for most the run
I already finished mines at least

[mellow atlas]

having an AF field full of retaining soil in GI is not only a cool flex but also very based

[chilly bloom]

Find a prismatic shard or buy a weapon like the steel falchion

[mellow atlas]

do you have a prismatic shard

[gray oriole]

Get a prismatic shard and then galaxy sword

[tribal gorge]

You're pretty much stuck until you finish the vault and can go to desert

[gray oriole]

Or buy a lava katana from adv guild

[mellow atlas]

Lava Katana is the best thing you can get from the sword guy

[verbal cedar]

Not yet ;| I meant more of could I get something higher before that

Aw mang

[gray oriole]

.

[mellow atlas]

Lava Katana yea

[tribal gorge]

Lava katana but that's expensive

[mellow atlas]

It's like 25k gold

[verbal cedar]

Yeah it's so high for the point I'm at

Guess I'll be stuck for longer

[tribal gorge]

And the vault is 42.5k

[verbal cedar]

I'm making so much money in winter just by digging lol

[gray oriole]

Yeah but desert unlocks a lot of useful shit compared to katana

[verbal cedar]

Paid for bus and minecarts

[mellow atlas]

First prismatic shard you get, use it for the galaxy sword, then buy a galaxy hammer from marlon because it's better

You can only buy the galaxy hammer after you get the sword

[verbal cedar]

Yea I've yet to find it tho
Found a lot of diamonds at least

[mellow atlas]

Same with the dagger

[gray oriole]

Do you have a greenhouse yet

[mellow atlas]

cool

[verbal cedar]

No but I might buy that next

[tribal gorge]

Daggers are too janky

[tribal gorge]

Can't buy a greenhouse

[verbal cedar]

Tru that's why I don't use them as much
Doesn't help with my laptop lag

[verbal cedar]

I'm joja run

[gray oriole]

Wdym cant buy

[tribal gorge]

Oh ew

[mellow atlas]

Daggers are only good for ghosts tbh and only with the special attack, and it still falls short to the hammer

[gray oriole]

He says he bought minecart so clearly hes doing joja

[verbal cedar]

I'm doing it for the achievement ┐⁠(⁠ ⁠∵⁠ ⁠)⁠┌

[tribal gorge]

Yeah guess I didn't notice that

[mellow atlas]

maybe i too should add pronouns in name

[gray oriole]

Anyway, greenhouse is a pretty big game changer

[verbal cedar]

Yea

[verbal cedar]

Well it's already in ur profile so u don't exactly need to

I had this before the pronoun update

Should I save bridge or panning for last ?

[mellow atlas]

tbh most people would rather use neutral pronouns than check the profiles of people in public servers

[verbal cedar]

Yea I do that

[mellow atlas]

i do that too

[mellow atlas]

also, bridge is 100% better

[verbal cedar]

I don't pan that often nor do I go mines all that much to the right

Panning for last then

[mellow atlas]

save panning for last

yea

[verbal cedar]

Most of my money so far is from digging and mayo

[gray oriole]

1.6 panning is kinda nice imo but it also needs a bunch of upgrades

[mellow atlas]

based

[verbal cedar]

Winter ftw (I like dirt)

[eternal linden]

Fun fact, with the artifact book regular quality dino eggs are barely worse than the mayo with artisan

[mellow atlas]

imo panning is just lame by design, it's not like other skills where you can scale up stuff, yk

it's a thing that exists i guess

[gray oriole]

Its not a skill though

[mellow atlas]

yea because it's lame

[verbal cedar]

I got a dino egg from the first dino I fought luckily

[mellow atlas]

i got 2 dino eggs from one room

[verbal cedar]

Just waiting for le coop upgRADE

[mellow atlas]

got blessed

[eternal linden]

Silver and higher dino eggs outpace dino mayo when you have the artifact book

[mellow atlas]

that's nice to know

[vapid furnace]

Yippee

[gray oriole]

Congrats

[eternal linden]

They even outpace the mayo when you have artisan

[mellow atlas]

what's the sale price of iridium dino eggs with that boost?

[verbal cedar]

Does the artifact book come from artifact spots yes ?

[gray oriole]

2100

[vapid furnace]

I think they come from artifact troves

[mellow atlas]

neat

[verbal cedar]

Awh

[vapid furnace]

I believe that's where I got mine

[verbal cedar]

Better save up Omnis

[eternal linden]

Troves

[eternal linden]

No, they mean with the artifact book

[mellow atlas]

so a coop of loved dinos makes like 25k per harvest..?

[gray oriole]

Its 2100 with the book…

[mellow atlas]

not bad but there's better stuff

[eternal linden]

Silver is worth 2.6K with the book

[mellow atlas]

‼️

rexmaxxing time fr

[gray oriole]

I have no idea how you’re getting 2600

[eternal linden]

Wait sorry no!

[mellow atlas]

o

[eternal linden]

I have 2

[gray oriole]

Yeah

[eternal linden]

So 2100 seems accurate for iridium

Still worse than ostriches

[gray oriole]

Anyway theyre ok if you’re too lazy to process

[mellow atlas]

yea it's 2100 with book

[gray oriole]

But im pretty sure theyre close to the bottom for animal income/day

Theyre cool though

Glad they got buffed

[mellow atlas]

they need to balance pigs

[gray oriole]

Ehh

Barn animals r pretty balanced now

[tribal gorge]

if they balance pigs then next meta will be ostriches

[verbal cedar]

Sheep :l

[gray oriole]

Pigs cant produce in winter and require daily maintenance

[mellow atlas]

sheep with animal cracker are quite good now tbh

[gray oriole]

Ostrich only needs processing once a week or whenever u feel like it with animal crackers

[mellow atlas]

they produce year-long and you can get 4 cloth per sheep per shearing

[molten turret]

👋

Heya.

[mellow atlas]

hi

[gray oriole]

Sheep’s 2nd best rn with high happiness + shepherd

[mellow atlas]

yea

[tribal gorge]

me, processing everything (wine, gathering AF, making mayo) on Sunday, and having nothing to do for the rest 6 days

[gray oriole]

Most people have mixed sources of income tho so losing artisan feels kinda bad

[mellow atlas]

process everything=> sleep 6 days => repeat until satisfied

[gray oriole]

The weeds in your garden rubbing their hands:

[tribal gorge]

sheep + shepherd vs literally biggest moneymaker with artisan

[mellow atlas]

my broke ass can't golden clock

[tribal gorge]

my broke ass will require year 7 or something to build one with 25% PM

[mellow atlas]

wait can i put golden clock in GI

[gray oriole]

The biggest money maker is using both

[tribal gorge]

no

[gray oriole]

Dont think so

[mellow atlas]

how do i protect my plants

[tribal gorge]

fences, roads

[gray oriole]

Pave over everything nontilled with paths

[verbal cedar]

Uhhh pathing ?

[tribal gorge]

or just dont leave any unused farming plots

[mellow atlas]

thank god there's people who know this shit better than me

[eternal linden]

What does the anvil do to the frog egg?

[modern scroll]

RIP infinite cloth glitched you will be missed

[verbal cedar]

I used to play a lot a couple years ago I'm just getting a refresher

[tribal gorge]

color

[vapid furnace]

Imagine being Pierre. You see the farmer run in, visibly shaking with various coffee and spicy eel stains, slamming a journal on the counter with a ripped sheet of paper taped to one of the pages.
"Qi's Cuisine" it reads, ordering the recipient to sell 100,000g's worth of fresh, cooked food.
The farmer proceeds to point at the wheat flower behind you. You turn back, both glad to get some money, but also scared at what's possibly happening next. "How much flour, sir?"
"I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK"

[eternal linden]

Does it have mechanical benefits?

[gray oriole]

No

Just looks pretty

[eternal linden]

Oh oof

[mellow atlas]

i love this kind of writing sm

[tribal gorge]

it can support queer people at best RGB setup so its the best one

[mellow atlas]

so true!

[tribal gorge]

the prismatic frog

[verbal cedar]

Gay frogs r real

[mellow atlas]

they turn the frickin frogs gay

[vapid furnace]

If you have enough of them onscreen at once, you can have a screensaver

[modern scroll]

This is animatable

[tribal gorge]

mr Qi and his radioactive chemicals

[mellow atlas]

someone actually needs to make that holy shit

[vapid furnace]

That's what I was thinking the moment I started typing

[tribal gorge]

and questionable mystery boxes (giggle)

[vapid furnace]

Like "This is one of those animated skits you'd see on Youtube"

[mellow atlas]

man i love horrors beyond my comprehension

[tribal gorge]

oh yeah, this guy sleeps in the middle of the bed while his wife is on the edge

[modern scroll]

Divorce

[mellow atlas]

i like to imagine what goes through the mind of the qi casino calico jack dealer when i pull the outcome list from the predictor and get 18 consecutive wins

[tribal gorge]

he cant keep getting away with this!

but all of them have infinite supply of tokens idk

[mellow atlas]

just staring blankly into the empty eyes of the dealer, somehow more soulless than the entire establishment, taking seconds to receive instructions from the girl beyond before winning again

[mellow atlas]

mfw integer limit

[vapid furnace]

If I see it animated on Youtube a few months later, I want to see the farmer absolutely deranged like a horror movie character. Slamming their hands on the counter, leaning over with a slight head tilt as they say "I'll take your entire stock!"

[tribal gorge]

thats YOUR supply of tokens

theirs is true infinity

[vapid furnace]

This is what happens when you constantly pass out surrounded by mummies for a living

[mellow atlas]

true

[tribal gorge]

they're like money printing machine the government uses

[mellow atlas]

ikr

so sad they patched the thing with the trashing totems

i feel like mousey was waiting for it to be patched before adding the calicojack predictor

it screams easy gold without effort

it ends up becoming boring after a while

so maybe it's for the better

[gray oriole]

Cant be any easier than spamming bed

[modern scroll]

It's like that one video with the farmer eating seaweed and then gifting Willy an egg

[mellow atlas]

imagine if the speedrun meta was just prepping for the casino quest line, getting infinite money and then getting all joja upgrades

absolutely soulless gameplay

[modern scroll]

You can do that with the predictor?? Which one did you use I thought the top results from Google just does like geodes and shops and whatever

[mellow atlas]

mouseypounds Stardew Predictor

after 1.6 rolled out it got a calicojack section

it's perfect if you need a bunch of farm totems

[modern scroll]

OOOO hell yea

[mellow atlas]

make sure not to do an integer overflow

[modern scroll]

Wait... does it only do calicojack

What about slots

[modern scroll]

What's that

[tribal gorge]

these are random

[vapid furnace]

To be fair, with slots you can't do much

[modern scroll]

Aww man....

[vapid furnace]

It's either win or lose, spin, or walk away

[modern scroll]

I can only do slots I have no idea how the other games work

[vapid furnace]

Calicojack is just a form of Blackjack

[mellow atlas]

if you get too many tokens that the number is higher than the 32 bit integer limit, it overflows and becomes negative

[tribal gorge]

they have instruction in there

in the predictor

[modern scroll]

Yea... I don't know how to play blackjack haha....

[vapid furnace]

Draw cards, try to get as close to 21 without going over, then stop.

[tribal gorge]

it literally says what to do

[modern scroll]

Oh!! I might try

[mellow atlas]

had to reset the day

[vapid furnace]

The Dealer then draws cards until they exceed your count, or go over 21 and lose

You can see the Dealer's first card, but their second card is hidden until you stop drawing cards

I know the rules... I just suck at it

[mellow atlas]

and everything that happens can be predicted now apparently so any logic is made obsolete by knowing what'll happen

luck games are fair unless you control what luck is

[tribal gorge]

its kinda like higher/lower when you get to a situation with like 14-15 points

and u just sitting there, whats the chance im getting higher than 6 next

[eternal linden]

My fishing bar literally takes up half the space

[mellow atlas]

based

[vapid furnace]

I think Resident Evil 7 had a twisted version of it, since you know, it's Resident Evil, a horror game

[mellow atlas]

blackjack but you don't get choccy milk if you lose

[vapid furnace]

Instead, you lose your ability to count to 10 on your fingers 😃

But, that's going a bit off topic

And maybe too dark, even for a game with Shane's cutscenes

[tribal gorge]

blackjack but you lose your house and family 2010 edition
blackjack but you lose all the little savings you have 2024 edition
stardew: you literally cannot lose, never punished

[mellow atlas]

me digging artifact spots (it's clay again)

[mellow atlas]

stardew valley but mr qi sues you and gets your farm

[tribal gorge]

if qi wanted to have my farm, he'd have it without any sues

[mellow atlas]

true

[modern scroll]

💀

[chilly bloom]

I made mr qi broke

[tribal gorge]

dealer busts indeed

[winter inlet]

Hey does anyone know what this item is in the collection? Wiki isn't updated

[mellow atlas]

me omw to lose my house

[tribal gorge]

new sap

from the mystic tree

[winter inlet]

Ohhh ok thanks!

[chilly bloom]

Mystic syrup

[mellow atlas]

it's either dried mushrooms or mystic syrup

nvm you already got the shrooms

[chilly bloom]

They’ve already sold dried mushroom, it had the little shroom on it

[white stirrup]

Is it true that blue grass grants 2 hay?

[vapid furnace]

Honestly, this is probably the most progress I've made so far.

[mellow atlas]

that's a lot of cuisine

[idle ledge]

omg omggg

[mellow atlas]

omg

[vapid furnace]

You got a pet dinosaur?

[mellow atlas]

snow cat

meower rex

i have a silly thing with cooking tbh, i barely ever make any recipes

my first time on the stove was for Haley's 14 heart event

i always watch the queen of sauce but there's so many ingredients to keep track of

so i completely neglect that aspect of the game outside of very specific things

[winter inlet]

If it weren't for the achievement I probably wouldn't engage with cooking at all, only dish I need is spicy eel and I get that from desert trader lol

[mellow atlas]

yeah

[chilly bloom]

I’m making a video on cooking

I could probably get it out in a couple of days

[mellow atlas]

maybe sometimes i turn my egg surplus into fried egg

[chilly bloom]

Covers all the needed ingredients in categories

[solar gorge]

How rare are the different jellies?

[mellow atlas]

because i can't be arsed to do smth else for energy

[mellow atlas]

they replace trash rolls

[winter inlet]

Not super rare in my experience, just had to go out of my way for cave jelly

[solar gorge]

I've been fishing in the ocean and haven't had any ocean jelly yet

[mellow atlas]

fish closer to the shore so you get less fish

if trash is rare, jellies are rare

best way to fish river jelly is to fish on the farm and for cave jelly it's mines 100

idk if the river jelly thing works on the standard farm i play forest

[solar gorge]

Whats the best way for ocean jelly

[mellow atlas]

ginger island

there's a lot of trash for some reason

[solar gorge]

I do not have access to there yet

[mellow atlas]

then you just gotta keep fishing in the beach

[vapid furnace]

Maybe fish close to shore

[mellow atlas]

not like there's a different ocean

[vapid furnace]

Cause I believe the closer your bobber is to shore, the more trash you will catch

[solar gorge]

Nothing I can do to modify the odds>

[mellow atlas]

yep

you can fish closer to the shore

[winter inlet]

Curiosity lure? Does that affect it?

[vapid furnace]

Maybe using a training rod could help too, but that would make the fish bite slower too without bait.

I don't know if that will work though, don't quote me on that

[mellow atlas]

curiosity lure makes rarer fish more common by increasing the odds they show up so I'd guess yeah?

you only rlly need bait cause tackle is for actual fish

[molten turret]

Get luck buffs

Luck Buff increases the chance for you to get Jellies, IIRC.

[mellow atlas]

oh neat

[molten turret]

It may just apply to Cave Jellies, I don't really remember.

[mellow atlas]

it still has to replace a trash item tho, right?

[molten turret]

Yes

[mellow atlas]

imma look it up

[modern scroll]

Is the infinite iridium generator glitch still working

The one from grandpa

[solar gorge]

Whats a good way to get luck buffs pre-skull caverns

[mellow atlas]

cave jelly gives +1 luck

dunno about other stuff

[mellow atlas]

also i think it was patched but im not sure

[solar gorge]

Whats the best floor to fish for cave jellies then?

[vapid furnace]

Spicy Eel gives +1 luck alongside +1 speed

Buy that from the desert trader using rubies

[simple oriole]

loot from the green rain event hehe

[solar gorge]

Don't have desert access yet, like I said

[vapid furnace]

To be fair, you said Skull Caverns, suggesting you didn't want to go in there or something

[outer night]

Nice

[simple oriole]

i think the peppercorn is from a mod

[dry moat]

has anyone got a 1.6 guide for all ingredients needed to cook all foods

[molten turret]

yeah im totally gonna spend a stack of coal for a dark piano

[silver dagger]

I put my frog color shot on the wiki!

[vapid furnace]

I think the only recipe that 1.6 added was moss soup

Meaning you can take the 1.5 guide, and add 20 pieces of moss to it.

[dry moat]

ahh okay, thank youu

do u have a 1.5 guide 😭

[vapid furnace]

Found a thing on Reddit

[dry moat]

omg thank u so much

[vapid furnace]

Remember, some recipes involve other cooked items

i hate complete breakfast i refused to make it for alex i just prismatic sharded my way to marriage

[vapid furnace]

I have no clue how I befriended him

[silver dagger]

!spronkler

[silver dagger]

sorry, Stardew Valley only has good food

[dry moat]

petition for alex to have an easier loved gift tbh

[simple oriole]

you my kid bruh

[vapid furnace]

I wouldn't call the Complete Breakfast a true complete breakfast

Missing stuff like bacon or sausage, but that makes sense considering that it's... not a great option

Toast is missing though

Or bagels

[silver dagger]

england: controls half the world in order to trade in spices only to eat boiled onions with no salt at home

[vapid furnace]

The pancakes don't even have syrup

[fathom saffron]

not everyone likes syrup

but that is a fair point

[vapid furnace]

To be fair, onion rings and fried onion chips or whatever they are called exist

You put fried onions into green bean casserole for example

[fathom saffron]

like my fave pancakes is pancakes with strawberries and ice cream

[vapid furnace]

My pancakes are just syrup... and lots of it

Between the layers, and on top

Who cares if it spills a bit onto the scrambled eggs, it's just a bit of extra sweetness on it

[harsh plover]

What happens if you place a tent kit in the mines?

[sacred river]

Pretty sure you cant

[molten turret]

People are struggling with this?

It was my 4th fish 😭

[idle ledge]

peak fit tbh

[mortal drift]

Drippy af

[proven cosmos]

waiiittt spirits eve got an update?!

[eager sundial]

Ikr, i got like 4 of it in just 20 minutes while fishing normally

[tough remnant]

Every 2nd year is different layout, yeah

Theoretically means there are 3 distinct layouts

[proven cosmos]

wait

oh.

wait was this pre 1.6

or am i tripping

[tough remnant]

Nope, it's new

[proven cosmos]

Aw yeah

[tough remnant]

But yeah, now you have Odd, Even, and the Year 1 version without Kent 😛

[proven cosmos]

oh hes cuuteeeee

[sacred river]

[rotund smelt]

has anyone noticed Oak trees converting to Green Rain Trees permanently?

is this a bug?

because I've lost 7 oak trees due to this in my 79 tree forest at the desert

[proven cosmos]

[modern scroll]

[proven cosmos]

heuhuehue

[harsh plover]

Double or nothing

[stiff wadi]

Hasn’t happened to me, sounds like a weird bug

[tepid knoll]

They should turn back in Spring. If no, it's a bug.

[rotund smelt]

thanks

[proven cosmos]

OH GRASS STILL EXISTS IN WINTER

Rejoice

[worn jolt]

WEEEEEEEEE (the calico statues in the desert festival can give you a speedboost)

[harsh plover]

If you get 2 prismatic jelly with the burglars ring will the 2nd one disappear after the quest

[harsh plover]

Coffee + Spicy Eel+ espresso + desert chef + calico statues + way of the wind 1&2 = infinite speed

[dapper python]

literally the fastest anyone has even been

[harsh plover]

dis is important

[mellow atlas]

should i just buy bombs from dwarf instead crafting them?

[dapper python]

support your dorf local businesses

[harsh plover]

its better to craft them if you have lots of materials but dwarf isn't TOO expensive

even after 1.6

[mellow atlas]

well i spent all of my iron ores on bombs and still not enough

[dapper python]

so much bombing

[mellow atlas]

cuz those special rocks appear in skull cavern during the desert festival right?

with calico eggs

its spring 13 y2 and i want to start preparing

[dapper python]

i just pickaxe them like a massive noob

[mighty sail]

I need to hear all the new things 1.6 have

Include drinking mayonnaise

[proven cosmos]

I FORGOT TO MINE MY IRIDIUM SPRINKLERS BEFORE BOMBING THE GREENHOUSE

Augh

[proven cosmos]

sluuuurp

[mighty sail]

Can’t imagine drinking it haha

I hope CA added new stuff to make fishing easier

[silver dagger]

I like drinking the void mayo

the burnt hair taste is 👌

[mighty sail]

Do we have new fishing rods?

And only thing I’m sad about is tea sapling selling price got nerfed.

[silver dagger]

new iridium rod at fishing mastery

advanced iridium rod, lets you have 2 bobbers

[mighty sail]

Oh yay

[silver dagger]

new bobber too, sonar, shows what fish is on your line

and golden fishing chests

[dapper python]

honestly the game got more generous, you get more stuff, more mats, more everything

[silver dagger]

it's basically a mini expansion

[mighty sail]

That’ll be helpful for community center bundles that involved fish

[proven cosmos]

they buffed treasure bobbers i think

[dapper python]

and raccoon bebes

[mighty sail]

I need a new money making scheme for this update

[proven cosmos]

unless they just removed the part about fish not liking them out of the decsription but didnt really actually do anything about that

[silver dagger]

S M O K E D F I S H

it's actually really really strong

[mighty sail]

New for 1.6? Tell me how pleassseee.

[silver dagger]

angler + artisan professions both give buffs so like iridium smoked lava eels sell for 5k each

and it only takes 15m and 1 coal to smoke a fish

[mighty sail]

Interesting, I will try it on my new file.

[silver dagger]

if you start with the river farm you get a smoker

[mellow atlas]

• if you take mushroom cave you get a dehydrator

[silver dagger]

otherwise you have to wait to unlock the recipe. then building more requires sea cave and river jellies which are new rare catches in those areas

[dapper python]

theres coal rocks in the quarry

[mellow atlas]

Which is pretty profitable too

[dapper python]

i have a ton of coal

[silver dagger]

yeah dehydrators are amazing for bulk fruit throughput, like berries

[mighty sail]

New enterprise: selling cooked food

I mean smoked lol

[dapper python]

OP trinkets

[mellow atlas]

I gave Elliott a smoked lobster thinking he'll love it more but he just liked it

[mighty sail]

Once I get the update on my Switch, no one will be able to talk to me now at work.

[sick pendant]

IS THIS ANY FAVORITE OBJECT FROM A SPOUSE FROM A MOD OR THE UPDATE?!

[tepid knoll]

Maybe he doesn't love to eat lobster. He just likes Lobster Bisque.🤔

[neat sail]

Literally only got like 2 jellies so far

I need to bring the raccoon a smoked chub

[outer night]

I only got 3 candles am I able to get 4 in any way

[neat mulch]

iirc, if you give grandpa's shrine a diamond, he'll reevaluate

[dapper python]

i got immediate 4 candles (in the new one) i felt like i cheated

my farm is still a mess

[neat mulch]

I honestly forgot what all you have to do to get 4 candles
But all that matters is I got it so I'm not complaining x)

[silver dagger]

I've gotten enough for a few smokers now

[drowsy steeple]

does anyone know how to get galaxy sword during the desert festival

[neat mulch]

Probably can't w all of the festival booths in the way

Would just wait until it's over

[atomic sage]

can heavy furnace cook quarts?

[vapid furnace]

At the crane game, whatchu want me to get?

[neat sail]

Can we update the cabins that are pre-built (by selecting them at the start of a save) and turn them into one of the newer cabin designs?
I just found the newer designs and I love the "neighbour" cabin but I don't want to lose my farmhands progress in the multiplayer game

[solar gorge]

Whats a good number of fish smokers to have

[modern scroll]

Get the tree

[vapid furnace]

I believe I did it by heading to Robin's and using the painting option

At least, I know it's possible

I turned my stone house into a trailer

[neat sail]

Ooooh okay perfect, does painting cabins cost money again? We're poor rn 😭

[vapid furnace]

I gotchu

[neat sail]

Haven't done it before so

[vapid furnace]

No, it's free

[neat sail]

Oh grand

[vapid furnace]

Building new cabins takes 100g though

[neat sail]

Time to get a cute cabin instead of this monstrous stone one

[vapid furnace]

I took the trailer for 2 reasons

1. Funny
2. I was curious to see what the third stage was

[neat sail]

Yeah it looks funky

[vapid furnace]

What else

[modern scroll]

The other tree

[tough remnant]

Yeah it's not much TBH. IIRC there's like, 23 points you can earn for the evaluatuon, and you only need 12 or something for 4 candles

[neat mulch]

Ooo, that's good to know :0

[vapid furnace]

Last item?

[tough remnant]

21 points max, not 23, was close

[drowsy steeple]

I'm so salty I got iridium band day 5 from fishing now I can't get galaxy sword until the 18th

should I restart

[tough remnant]

Up to 7 points for earning (1M for max), 1 point each for Master Angler, Full Shipment and Complete Collection, up to 2 points for skills (2 is 10 in all skills), 1 for having a stage 3 house and spouse/roommate, up to 2 for befriending lots of villagers, 3 if you completed the CC and watched cutscene, and 1 each for skull key and rusty key

Only need 12 for 4 candles

[jagged valve]

hello! been trying to look up what this means on the skills tab but couldn't find out. what does it mean that penny is showing up here with a gift? it's not her birthday. thank you 🙂

[tough remnant]

She's your Winter Star recipient

[drowsy steeple]

ooh congrats @tough remnant on a new title, day 31 all perfect catches when

[tough remnant]

Never lol

Actually, I suppose it would be doable if I started with Glacierfish lol

For the magic bait day

[jagged valve]

ohhh thank you!

[drowsy steeple]

how do you get magic bait so fast

[tough remnant]

I got to GI on day 20

[drowsy steeple]

I suppose much earlier is possible, more so with 11 rainy days?

riverland farm is so OP even with my middling skills and experience

[solar gorge]

I fished all day and didn't get a single cave jelly

[drowsy steeple]

F

[crimson wigeon]

Anyone entered the cave northwest of cindersnap forest? The one w/ grandpa’s note? It’s the cave where you can only enter when you have mastered all skills

Idk how to navigate it. How does it work?

I can’t find anything about it online

[drowsy steeple]

what do you mean by navigate

[neat sail]

Got 2 pretty quick in caves, fished from 2pm-1pm and got NO sea jellies however
Just 6k of fish

[crimson wigeon]

Sorry it was unclear. Like, how does the secret room or cave work?

[neat sail]

Mastery cave, once you have mastery points (the bar in your skill tab), you can exchange 1 mastery point for mastery in 1 skill
Each mastery gives you different rewards, I recommend starting with farming then combat, maybe fishing after

[drowsy steeple]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Mastery_Cave

[crimson wigeon]

Thank you so much for the help!

[crimson wigeon]

Thank you!!

[neat sail]

Np!

Ooh joja cola now gives +1 speed

[drowsy steeple]

does anyone know of it's possible to get to SC by day 13

[neat sail]

In theory yes, if you had desert totem and were insanely fast at the mines

[drowsy steeple]

where do you get desert totem without having access to the desert?

[neat sail]

Through uhh those little hoe spots

[drowsy steeple]

hwat

[neat sail]

The little worm spots you use your hoe on

Idr the name

At least I think so

[drowsy steeple]

ik about artifact spots but that'd be extremely broken on even casual runs

[neat sail]

Nevermind I lied

It's just through crafting and desert trader

So, if you speedran the mines and were insanely rich in 13 days then yes

[drowsy steeple]

I found out "insanely rich" is in the realm of possibility bc riverland gives you a free fish smoker

the mines is the problem

[naive cape]

huh the crafts room bundles dont really change much when remixed thats lame

[neat sail]

Nah mines are easy 10-15 levels a day, at least for me

Especially in the beginning

Playing multiplayer you would get there even faster

[drowsy steeple]

on minmax 40 levels a day is good, but I think to get the key on the 12th you need 60 levels a day

or use animation cancelling

[naive cape]

Is there a way to re-remix bundles if I get lame results and barely any of them change?

[neat sail]

40 levels a DAY?

[tired mesa]

dward hammer or galaxy hammer?

[narrow parrot]

"Kaaaaaaa! Paul is the favorite of all!"

• My first thoughts upon seeing this hat

[tired mesa]

I dont wanna buy 2nd one, got 1st one from volcano

[drowsy steeple]

yeah you get to the bottom in 3 days

[neat sail]

Insane

[drowsy steeple]

you have to get gold pickaxe first tho

[proven cosmos]

ginger island obelisk or calico desert obelisk first?

[tidal yacht]

ginger just bc the totems cost so much to make

[drowsy steeple]

and going to willy is such a pain

[tidal yacht]

desert ones are cheaper/trade for 3 omni geodes

yea true

[vapid furnace]

And you have a farm on Ginger Island

[tough remnant]

Yes, way earlier even

[vapid furnace]

All the desert has is the skull caverns, and the trader gives you warp totems for pretty cheap if you constantly go spelunking

[tough remnant]

Earliest I've gotten to SC was day 10

[fallow basin]

galaxy

Preferrably Infinity Gavel.

[tough remnant]

And I know other people have done faster

[drowsy steeple]

ooo how

[crimson halo]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[drowsy steeple]

gold pick takes 6 days and mines take 3 days, and you have to get the clint cutscene

[fallow basin]

i gave them to my rabbits but now i maxed out friendship with everyone...

[crimson halo]

nah im giving them to my cows

[fathom saffron]

curious how it works on fishpond

[crimson halo]

grade a beef is gonna be so happy with this

[fathom saffron]

it just gives more roe?

[fallow basin]

All i got left is honestly just crafting, cooking and full shipment

ostritch egg gonna be really annoying though

The first one just dissapeared???

[crimson halo]

my beloved

[fallow basin]

Confusing stuff.

[crimson halo]

WAIT DOES THIS WORK ON OSTRICHES?

[fathom saffron]

ooh I'd use it on ostritches

easy mayo

[tough remnant]

You don't need gold pick to get into SC, but day 1 buying a copper from Clint is generally a good idea

To trigger the cutscene

Steel pickaxe is generally plenty

[drowsy steeple]

the initial investment is a problem for me. you need 45 copper to start working on the first pick. do you end up with gold pick once you get to SC?

[neat sail]

Tabbed out of stardew, went to click back in and accidentally clicked "x"
After a full day of organising my farm and gifts for villagers, kill me now

[fathom saffron]

one monitor?

[drowsy steeple]

steel pick on SC is just unthinkable for me

[fathom saffron]

I'm soo glad I have 2

[tough remnant]

I did not, I had steel pickaxe which was rarely used

Mostly I'd use crafted bombs

[neat sail]

Technically it's on my second monitor (laptop + monitor) but my laptop screen broke recently so now it's only one 😔

[tough remnant]

Bombs > Pickaxe

[drowsy steeple]

crafted bombs... interesting

[fathom saffron]

aw no

[drowsy steeple]

i thought bombs are dead since the price increase

[fathom saffron]

I just have my old desktop

[thorny light]

my first trinket

[neat sail]

Bombs are still the preferred way to beat SC afaik

[tough remnant]

Year 1 they're cheaper to buy the ingredients from Clint anyway

[fathom saffron]

which desperately needs a clean

[neat sail]

Yeah I'm buying my first actual pc soon, been saving up for the past 8 months

[tough remnant]

Bombs are effectively 750g per in year 1 if you're buying the iron and coal from Clint

And a lot of the time you won't be

[tidal yacht]

thought on crafting vs buying explosive ammo?

[thorny light]

craft

[drowsy steeple]

I use the charcoal kiln while fishing with the wood from robin, is that suboptimal?

[tough remnant]

Hard bit is getting to level 6

[thorny light]

but if youre rich and dont wanna make iron bars then buy it

[tidal yacht]

smelting iron bars is a bit of an inconvenience but u get so many more than if u buy

[tough remnant]

Charcoal is more money efficient yeah, but less time efficient

[tidal yacht]

kind of at a semi-rich point in this save so im on the fence

[fathom saffron]

just need combat to 10

rip

[thorny light]

its a privilege when youre eventually rich. i keep on running out of ores so i just buy, and sell my super generous amount of iridium bars

[drowsy steeple]

why did i say charcoal clint i mean kiln

[tough remnant]

I thought you meant charcoal for coal paired with Clint for iron lol

[drowsy steeple]

freudian slip

[tough remnant]

But yeah, pickaxe isn't that important past iron

[tidal yacht]

yea my main world is like this and has been for a long time so i still dont know the sweet spots of how rich i wanna be before i start splurging on bombs etc

[fathom saffron]

ugh give me more firestone

[drowsy steeple]

so how do you get to lv 6? cherry bombs?

[fathom saffron]

lava fish wants 3

I want 2

[tough remnant]

Cherry bombs on any dense rock clusters with at least a few ore, plus manually mining any individual ores on route

[fathom saffron]

yaay got another firestone

now I need 2 more

[spice night]

Hi guys, I have problem with dehydrator. I got one from prices from Lewis machine (?) And I can not get anything to put in there. It needs to be 5 same things or no?

[glossy cipher]

i’m absolutely gonna be mean to him after he insulted me when i married haley

[fathom saffron]

5 of same fruit, so star level must be same

or most mushrooms except red.

[drowsy steeple]

I'm wondering if you can do this while mining for sprinklers for farming level

[glossy cipher]

hes just jealous i stole his girls smh

[spice night]

Then I go for long fishing then... thank you!

[drowsy steeple]

this run i needed 20 sprinklers for kale

[fathom saffron]

I set up a mushroom log farm for the mushrooms

[tough remnant]

I wasn't bothering with sprinklers lol

[fathom saffron]

fishing?

[tough remnant]

Beach farm

[spice night]

Yeah, I need to dry fish for racoons

[fathom saffron]

oh ok

so the fish smoker just is 1 fish and 1 coal

[atomic sage]

does fish specific bait act like magic bait where you can fish them up any time and season

[fathom saffron]

dehydrator which is the other new machine is for fruit/mush

[spice night]

Oh my I got confused then!

[drowsy steeple]

so no starfruits on y1 summer?

last time i played beach farm it was a pain

[fathom saffron]

so fish smoker is like pointy top looking and dark coloured

[drowsy steeple]

though in the long run it's really enjoyable because you farm on GI anyway

[fathom saffron]

dehydrator is like squareish and gold in colour ish

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Dehydrator

[atomic sage]

is smoking a iridum quality fish worth it?

[drowsy steeple]

depends on the fish

[fathom saffron]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Fish_Smoker

[drowsy steeple]

catfish yes chub no

[fathom saffron]

I think I saw something about lava fish?

[atomic sage]

.

[tidal yacht]

isnt it just flat double the price of the fish?

[drowsy steeple]

yeah but for some fish it won't even recoup the coal

[tidal yacht]

ah i see what u mean

[fathom saffron]

I have so much wood

so coal = no biggie

also I have the quarry open 😄

[drowsy steeple]

just smoke in descending order from the most expensive fish

[tough remnant]

Quality is preserved, so iridium is preferred

[tough remnant]

And no

[atomic sage]

ok thanks

[neat sail]

Time to do yet another day of fishing/gifting trying to find sea jelly

[tidal yacht]

im assuming you mean for buying coal tho? because coal sells for 15 right so unless base price for the fish is 15 youd make a profit

so if you have the resource already it should always be profit i think?

[spiral rune]

i was grinding for this shit for like the past season

[drowsy steeple]

I'm having doubts about early SC because fishing with smoker and bait maker is so profitable. I'm making 40k gold a day fishing catfish day 11

I don't think iridium mining can top that this early

[drowsy steeple]

it should

also who sells coal

[spiral rune]

bro is getting 40k a day in spring but doesnt know who sells coal

[crude rover]

Technically: Yes. The question would be if you can do something better with that piece of coal to turn it into a higher profit. 🤷‍♀️

[tidal yacht]

yea i dont even buy coal either typically, kind of just a resource to me

[lunar adder]

I FINALLY GOT THE CINDERCLOWN SHOES SO NOW I JINGLE WHEN I RUN LIKE A PROPER COURT FOOL

[drowsy steeple]

which player sells coal (rhetorical)

[tidal yacht]

yeah thats a good point

[crude rover]

I meant smoked fish compared to selling iridium bar.

[drowsy steeple]

oops wrong reply

[idle ledge]

what can you do with jungle tank? :O

[lunar adder]

put frog trinkets in it!!

[tough remnant]

Opportunity cost vs using the coal for something else. You'll usually end up in a position where it's a good idea to buy coal at some point in year 1, which means 150g is a decent approximation of coal value

[drowsy steeple]

I meant to reply to the msg above lmao

[spiral rune]

understandable, i didnt read a bit

[idle ledge]

YIPPEEE

[lunar adder]

YIPPEEE

i’ve found yellow, green, and brown. idk how many colours there are

they have better use in the tank than following me bc A FROG ATE THE PRISMATIC SLIME AND I DIDNT GET THE JELLY AND COULDNT FINISH THE QUEST

[idle ledge]

ive found joja, green and blue green

[drowsy steeple]

doesn't it spawn again later tho

[lunar adder]

i couldn’t find another one for the entirety of the quest

[idle ledge]

oh yea ive wondered with frogs, you dont get the loot from the monster they kill ya?

[lunar adder]

nope!!

[tough remnant]

Nope

[silver dagger]

top is all colors except prismatic, bottom is various shades of prismatic

[idle ledge]

ok L frog they going into the tank

[vapid furnace]

Why are fireworks labelled as "Crafting" even though I haven't found a single crafting recipe yet for one?

[lunar adder]

WORD HOW DO I GET THE PRETTY ONES

[silver dagger]

you can use them to craft party hats

[lunar adder]

weren’t party hats tailored with cakes?

[tidal yacht]

yeah definitely useful for any playthroughs where u buy it. its funny this distinction almost always comes up in profit discussions like a casual player that just spends a couple extra hours farming coal/resources will end up in a diff situation to one where u buy coal to save time in speedruns/minmaxy runs

[silver dagger]

anvil, reforge.

brown, green, blue-green (common)
red, yellow, blue (uncommon)
void (rare)
prismatic (ultra-rare)

[silver dagger]

I think it's fireworks now, not sure though

[vapid furnace]

I would think that it would mean it's a result of a crafting recipe

[lunar adder]

huh, weird

[vapid furnace]

Like fences or chests, they are crafted

[silver dagger]

🤷 not sure

[tough remnant]

I mean, question ends up then being "is the sell price of this fish worth however long it takes to farm a coal?"

[drowsy steeple]

some guy in a factory crafted it?

[sacred river]

I need to speedrun fishing lvl 10
Which fish gives the most exp but is also easy to get

[primal gate]

Ngl the new update with the books and all relinqueshes my mmorpg rng drop loot

[crude rover]

Assuming the wiki is correct and artisan affects the fish smoker: How fast can you get artisan? Because then the smoked catfish would outrun the iridium bar.

[drowsy steeple]

perfect largemouth bass using targeted bait

[sacred river]

I'm fishing lvl 2

[tough remnant]

Largemouth Bass are pretty easy and give good XP

[drowsy steeple]

artisan is really slow, so no way I'm getting it spring unless I'm farming all day every day

[primal gate]

Just fish in the mountain

[sacred river]

How much xp

[tidal yacht]

or with consistent sc dives when you already have a stream of coal coming in naturally there technically isnt a time consuming aspect, and then its like you said "is it better used for smth else" or "am i gonna run out of coal if i keep processing all my fish"

[tough remnant]

19 base, modified by base quality, perfect catch, and treasure

[crude rover]

Ok. I only know that one can manage 6 till the egg festival. 🤷‍♀️

[sacred river]

Hmm

I looked up tuna
It gives 31 xp

[primal gate]

So smoked fish is an artistan product?

[sacred river]

And I'm in summer rn

Is it a good option

[primal gate]

Tuna is summer if I'm not mistaken (I'm perfect)

[naive cape]

Dammit the CC got remixed into the exact same bundles as always

about to just joja this shit

[sacred river]

Yeah I'm in summer

[primal gate]

Bro why you level 2 fishing in summer

[sacred river]

Because I hate fishing

[naive cape]

just add a no minigame mod

[sacred river]

I'm speedrunning lvl 10 for the mastery

Since I'm level 10 on every other skill

[naive cape]

just add a no minigame mod

[sacred river]

I don't have mods rn

[primal gate]

Damn that's a good goal

[crude rover]

Seems so: It benefits from 2 skills.

[sacred river]

Oh yea I can also smoke the fish I catch so it's a win-win

[naive cape]

Now I must decide: Do Jojamart, or download a mod that replaces all the bundles with flour and hope it works

[vapid furnace]

Do the tea saplings work indoors during winter?

[sour hare]

They do

[vapid furnace]

Good, I need several tea leaves for the shipping log

[primal gate]

Are smoked fish artisan products?

[sacred river]

Yes

[vapid furnace]

I'm only missing beets, beer, and this stuff.

[sour hare]

They are + they also benefit from angler, it stacks

[sacred river]

They benefit from both Angler and Artisan

[crude rover]

You can just get some for free from Carolines Tearoom during the last week of a season when you don't want to plant them.

[vapid furnace]

Wait, I might actually have a poppy in a fridge

[silver dagger]

only a few things

[fathom saffron]

one's that blue flower

[primal gate]

So the farming skill should be on artisan?

[sacred river]

Always

[primal gate]

Damn!

[proven cosmos]

eggs

[vapid furnace]

That's not a poppy, whoops

[tidal yacht]

parrot mayonnaise

[proven cosmos]

n o

[sour hare]

Artisan should generally always be the way to go unless you're doing sheep shenanigans with Shepherd

[sacred river]

Even with the buff sheep don't compare one bit to starfruit wine

It's not a competition

[fathom saffron]

who gets sheep?

[sour hare]

How much was starfruit in g/t/d again? I always forget bc I do AF wine for the convenience

[vapid furnace]

Noah, that's who

[warped yew]

Blueberries are so awesome with Dehydrators

[spiral rune]

YAY i finally got mastery

[sacred river]

Idk
I just know they sell for big bucks

[vapid furnace]

I hope you know how it works so I don't have to use the mastery token analogy.

[sacred river]

It should be on the wiki but it's only for the base

[sour hare]

So do golden chickens and sheep

[sacred river]

It doesn't count hyperspeed gro

[sacred river]

Why are you comparing it with an endgame content

[undone bridge]

How do you get the Junimo decorations?

[vapid furnace]

I bought the catalogue from the cart for 70,000g or something

Very gray

[sour hare]

I mean why not, there was nothing said about comparing earlygame only

[small widget]

hey what is this item thats blanked out?

[vapid furnace]

Raisins

Specifically, dried grapes

[undone bridge]

Like the travelling cart?

[edgy valve]

how long does the pet bowl take to build? is it instant or

[vapid furnace]

Ye

[naive cape]

Is anything actually added to the joja route in 1.6

[crimson halo]

GUYS

caps

i just got 3 batteries from iridium bats

and a prismatic shard

[sour hare]

70k? I thought it was 50
I;m not gonna have enough next time she comes, watch her have it then

[crimson halo]

and an iridium bar

[edgy valve]

technically joja parrot but you don't need to go joja route for it to be available

[vapid furnace]

Well I bought it a while ago

[thorny light]

where do you get them

[vapid furnace]

It may be cheaper, it may be more expensive

[crimson halo]

wait thge shard is from a node

[vapid furnace]

I think so

[sour hare]

It is instant

[naive cape]

Damn. Was kinda hoping. Imma try out the mod that replaces the bundles with flour but if that doesnt work Im going joja. My bundles got remixed but barely friggin changed at all

remixed bundles are a scam

[vapid furnace]

I has idea

[naive cape]

"wouldnt it make the community center so much more fun if you needed a carrot for spring instead of a parsnip?"
No CA, not really

[vapid furnace]

Hey, you enabled remixed bundles yourself

And it only takes 4 days to grow either way

[edgy valve]

but carrots are way faster and easier to get than parsnips??

[vapid furnace]

... slight issue with that statement

You literally get parsnips as your first item

[sour hare]

They have to drop first

I got my first carrots by spring 20

[edgy valve]

yeah, but you can also find a carrot from any artifact spot, literally 90% of my artifact drops are the new seeds

[vapid furnace]

They aren't the same

[edgy valve]

i had like 80 carrot seeds by spring 4th

[vapid furnace]

The identifier is that the seed spots are green grass looking things

Artifacts are the usual old roots / worms

[edgy valve]

interesting, i didn't know that

[sour hare]

You got way more green artifact spots than me then
I barely get any

[vapid furnace]

The green one is more wavey

[sour hare]

I kinda wish they were a little different, I always confuse them at a glance

[vapid furnace]

Like wind is blowing

[sour hare]

Maybe like a green flower or something

[naive cape]

My problem is I wanted bundles to actually be different and not like... and entire room has 2 different items

[vapid furnace]

Do you have all the rooms / bundles unlocked yet?

[naive cape]

Just 3 rooms but still, its not like the vault is gonna be different

pantry, craft room, and fish tank are almost identical to normal

[vapid furnace]

And then the bulletin board comes along and sideswipes you with the forager's, child's, spirit's eve, and winter star bundles

[sour hare]

AND the iridium bar in the Dye bundle

Also pantry and craft having none of the new bundles is some supremely low rng roll
Rip

[naive cape]

Still gonna see if Relaxing Bundles works in 1.6

[naive cape]

I mean I needed a spring onion in the spring forage bundle?

and I got the 500 sap one and thats as exciting as its gotten

[crude rover]

They don't have gotten new bundles. Just some new items were added to the old bundles (i.e. carrot to spring crops).

[naive cape]

yippee

[sour hare]

Yeah that's what I mean, that's some unlucky rng

[sour hare]

Ah so you actually got the new bundles, ok

[naive cape]

1 interesting bundle in 3 rooms just kinda sucks tho

[crude rover]

That's rng for you. 🤷‍♀️

[sour hare]

I got Garden replacing Artisan the one time I wanted to do Artisan Bundle bc of Meadowlands

[crude rover]

Crafts room can get 2 bundles completely changed. You found one of them. Seems like you were lucky / unlucky (can be seen both ways) with pantry and fishtank so far.

[naive cape]

idk maybe I just got my hopes too high

[crude rover]

You're first time with remixed bundles?

[sour hare]

Remixed bundles never was like an entirely new CC or anything
For that, you'll have to mod
I think Challenging Bundles is already updated for 1.6

[naive cape]

yeah I thought itd actually impact my gameplay somewhat

Sadly Relaxing Bundles isnt working

[sour hare]

Doesn't relaxing bundles make the CC *easier* tho

[naive cape]

Lets me do joja without doing joja which is about the next best thing

[sour hare]

Then just do joja

[naive cape]

but then I dont get a community center

Also I dont get to see Morris get punched through a ceiling

[sour hare]

I guess

You actually get the movies there in joja route which imo has more use than an almost empry CC

[naive cape]

Its not about it being easier or harder, just different

Also I was thinking of romancing sophia and itd be awkward being a joja simp and her partner

Maybe Ill see what mods add onto the joja route that might be fun

it'd be nice to not need specific crops the whole time

[crude rover]

That entirely depends on which ones you get to be honest. Last time I played on 1.5 it was with "all bundles mod" (not available for 1.6 as far as I know). That did make a difference but it also meant to do the "bad ones" (i.e. master angler).

[naive cape]

Any suggestions for specific bundle mods that arent necessarily easier or harder bundles but just... different?

Also can these be added mid-game? Or do I have to restart?

[sour hare]

Something like this, you mean?
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20425

[sour hare]

Restart always when changing stuff like this if you want to not have bugs and other assorted issues

[naive cape]

crap. I didnt do much yet but character creation always takes me forever

Maybe thats why relaxing bundles didnt work too

changing topics, including meadowlands what are yalls favorite vanilla farm maps?

[tough remnant]

In terms of aesthetics, I think meadowlands is new favourite

Finally displaced forest in that regard

[modern sorrel]

stringray vs mahoganny seeds you mean ?

[tough remnant]

In general layout, I'm a big Four Corners fan though

[modern sorrel]

Beach farm 😍

[tough remnant]

But I probably play on Beach more than anything else because it's the most mechanically interesting

The layout is a pain in the arse

[modern sorrel]

absolutely

it's hard to make it work

[sour hare]

Beach farm

[modern sorrel]

but i think beach farm is my favorite just because it's pretty

[idle ledge]

finally

[tough remnant]

Beach farm is okay for aesthetics

[modern sorrel]

summon wall of flesh ?

[primal gate]

Also the richest by far based on real life comparison. A beach farm is just crazy millionaire grandpa type

[idle ledge]

:3 yes

[tough remnant]

TBH my actual favourite farm layout all around was the modded one I made for my "farm type doesn't matter" perfection challenge, which was a super tiny variant of the beach farm

[sour hare]

I really like Hilltop for aesthetics

[wooden oyster]

Oh no, I was saying mahogany seeds are easier to obtain than maple, pine, and acorn seeds if you’re trying to create a mass mystic tree farm. If you’re only doing 50 or so trees, it’s fine. But if you need hundreds, it’s harder to get them than mahogany.

[modern sorrel]

oh ok i understand now

i want some mystic seeds but i will probably not plant more than 30

[thorny light]

i get quite a lot, sometimes i ignore them because those four arent super profitable but theyre good for beginners

[modern sorrel]

but i want a LOT of mahoganny because i want a LOT of hardwood

i don't want to use my mahoganny seeds to craft mystic seeds lol

[thorny light]

my tactic rn is just turn the quarry into a tree farm

[wooden oyster]

I can’t wait to go full decorative with this farm. And I’ve only ever decorated one of my saves.

[final tide]

what should i do with my star fruit?

[tough remnant]

Actually, just realised lol

[thorny light]

seed maker

what year are you anyway

[final tide]

2

[harsh plover]

can you re-order your animals tab? Maybe in the files somehow?

[thorny light]

make as many starfruit as possible

[tough remnant]

The real answer was staring me in the face the whole time - best vanilla farm is Ginger Island West 😛

[final tide]

ah okay

[wooden oyster]

Fortunately, mahogany seeds are easier to obtain since 1.5.

[modern sorrel]

i take every tips

[naive cape]

I think Im with yall on meadowlands but I do think the cave is in a weird spot

[thorny light]

personally ill still ride with standard farm

then my second favorite is the one with a huge lake at the bottom left

[steady iris]

ew

[thorny light]

:(

[steady iris]

who plays on standard farm

[thorny light]

its the most flexible one wdym

im basic

[steady iris]

[wooden oyster]

Lol standard farm allows for the most creativity IMO.

But aesthetically, definitely the most bland.

[modern sorrel]

immersive farm 2

[naive cape]

Grandpas Farm replaces standard for me so I dont even have standard anymore lol

[steady iris]

still strong with my forest farm 💯

[wooden oyster]

Aesthetically for me:

Meadow>Forest>Beach>River

[hidden ore]

the meadowlands farm certainly is easy on the eyes. now I just have to find the time to do something nice with it. all the detailing that needs to get done...

[wooden oyster]

I’ve been grabbing Inspo from r/FarmsofStardewValley. For whenever 1.6 comes to console.

[dusky shale]

https://reddit.com/r/FarmsofStardewValley.

[hidden ore]

I want to hold off on looking too closely at other folks' designs for this and see what I can do with the new catalogues and such

[sinful tusk]

Yeah, but the biggest flaw is cave location like someone else said. But overall it is okay. But my fav is still forest one

[thorny light]

btw what is everyone favorite trinket

mine is the ice rod

[wooden oyster]

Yeah fair enough.

[hidden ore]

I don't check the fruit cave every day, just here and there, so the cave location isn't a problem

[naive cape]

Oka relaxing bundles works as long as I restart. Joja route without joja. Neat

[hidden ore]

for those of us unfamiliar (never used mods), what is "relaxing bundles"?

[naive cape]

yeah I think if we ever get a 1.7, the farm cave needs some love

[wooden oyster]

Idk yet since I haven’t started 1.6, but I’m guessing the Quiver for me.

[naive cape]

Replaces bundles with flour of equivalent price to the joja option

[sinful tusk]

Yeah, after some time I do that too, but at the beginning when you still have unfinished community center it is kinda helpful

[modern sorrel]

fair choice

[hidden ore]

the ice rod is mighty nice, but in the dangerous mines, the basilisk paw rules

[wooden oyster]

Mermaid shoes!

[hidden ore]

never seen 'em even once

[wooden oyster]

😮😞😩

[steady iris]

space boots with sneaker appearence

[wooden oyster]

Wow. What a name. I thought ConcernedApe was typing for a second.

[mellow atlas]

did u guys know if you keep the weird alien thing in your inventory it doesnt break?

[tough remnant]

Yeah

[mellow atlas]

im his alt account

[steady iris]

WorriedMonkey

[tough remnant]

I started my max collection save on 1.5.2 specifically because it was still possible to get multiple Strange Capsules in that version, so I could have one of each 😛

[wooden oyster]

I was about to ask him to add button mapping for bulk purchase to console 1.6. 😂

[sinful tusk]

Oh nice!

[hidden ore]

he's active on twitter, why not try him there? (if you have a twitter account)

[mellow atlas]

ill add it /j

[final tide]

for some reason i cant craft my anciet seed into the pack?

is this normal?

[sinful tusk]

I always forgot to put it in my inventory 🥲

[drowsy steeple]

do I have to befriend demetrius for pre-winter cc

[sour hare]

Ape pls can you remove Lewis while you're at it
The world has evolved past the need for Lewis

[wooden oyster]

I have. Twice. Lol. I submitted a couple of tickets too after PC got bulk purchase.

[tough remnant]

With no Lewis, you couldn't ship anything though. You could only sell direct to shopkeepers, and the shipping collection would be impossible

[hidden ore]

might gotta just be patient then. but if you can get a post where a bunch of console players can upvote it and then send that link, maybe that helps, dunno

[wooden oyster]

Not on CA, really. Imagine the amount of feedback and messages he sifts through. Maybe it hasn’t caught his eye.

[drowsy steeple]

pierre can walk to get it idc that's the least he can do

[hidden ore]

yep I don't envy the task of wading through that inbox

[sour hare]

So true
We're making this man rich, might as well work for it

[steady iris]

there's other devs too
