Thanks lil bro

I'm gonna date your mom now

wait till vincent gives you clay for cheap during the fest

mellow atlas
#

vincent could've at least given an ice cream

#

surely basic food items are easy just like dirt

hidden ore
#

at a certain point the gifts at the winter star are useless except maybe the tea set. it's the gesture that matters

#

hey there, how do I progress in mastery ?

hidden ore
#

get xp in any skill, they all apply. easiest is harvesting a lot of high value crops

tough remnant
#

I figured out what the odds are for random cosmetics from various sources:

  • Monster Drops: 0.3%
  • Shaking Trees: 0.4%
  • Digging Artifact Spots: 1.8%
  • Chopping a Tree: 0.066%
  • Breaking a Crate: 0.3%
  • Panning: 0%-13.4% depending on daily luck, luck buff, special charm, and pan upgrades
#

That last one is ridiculous yes

hidden ore
#

depending on luck buff??

tough remnant
#

Yeah turns out I missed luck buff, it has an impact

hidden ore
#

OH

tough remnant
#

You get +.05% chance per luck buff lol

hidden ore
#

gonna be breaking out those lucky lunches then

tough remnant
#

Oh wait, missed the special charm lol

sacred pendant
#

Do the new mushroom logs make the mushroom cave moot?

warped panther
hidden ore
#

you need hardwood for those, so at least initially the cave will still be handy

tough remnant
#

Okay yeah, with 13 luck buff (the maximum), lucky charm, max daily luck, and an iridium pan, you have a 17.4% chance to get a random cosmetic from panning

#

That's ridiculous

mellow atlas
#

it is very high

sacred pendant
#

I always went with the mushroom cave but I think I’m gonna choose the fruit cave now just for the foragable fruits

tough remnant
#

The luck buff doesn't even particularly matter

mellow atlas
#

but it's not that easy to get max daily luck

#

so I guess it's fine

mellow atlas
tough remnant
#

Actually, miscalcualted again lol, forgot to factor in base chance

sacred pendant
#

But I like the look of the neat little mushroom bins 😩

tough remnant
#

That's +16.9%, over the base odds of 0.5%

#

So 17.4% chance with everything maxed

hidden ore
#

really hope that doesn't get nerfed

#

it's nice to have panning be useful for a change

tough remnant
#

Tallying things up again, I think I made another error with pan calculation

fickle knot
#

can geologist profession stack with the mining mastery passive that gives 2 gems per gem node?

tough remnant
#

Yeah I did, I misinterpreted the buff for pan level. Slightly smaller but not much smaller

#

Breakdown of the odds:

  • 0.5% base
  • +0.05% per Luck Level
  • ±5% based on unmodified Daily Luck
  • +1.25% if you have special charm
  • +2% per pan upgrade over Copper
#

Works out to 13.4% max with everything maxed

hidden ore
#

that's really really nice numbers there

iron jasper
#

which is better?

terse apex
#

It doesn't matter much. I picked foraging first because at the time I didn't have access to ginger island yet, and the mini-forge needs items from there. I was able to craft some seeds and use the syrup for treasure totems to complete my museum.

#

But if you pick the combat mastery first, you'll get trinkets which are kinda nice, I have a parrot one now that really helps with money making on mining days.

Save it, if you have multiple you can trade them at the bookseller

(that is, if you want a slime incubator or slime press)

#

Otherwise, sell them.

Here's a question

#

I don't think Pam knew until now

#

Where was Robin building the house, and where did she put the trailer

I got a problem

#

Im playing expanded, the green rain was happening, i didnt have my axe, i left the game, got item spawner so i can spawn my axe for the day then throw it and delete item spawner mod, and now the rain isnt green, tv isnt green, but the plants from green rain are present

terse apex
#

Then whack the plants? If they yield weeds/moss, you're still good, just the aesthetics aren't there 😛

#

(also, use a scythe/sword to destroy the weeds and such, it doesn't cost energy)

serene lance
terse apex
#

Is there a difference?

serene lance
#

And i wanted to see what the expanded npcs react to it

terse apex
#

Hmm.

#

I'm not sure what could cause that or how to fix it... you've checked that the npcs are doing 'normal' things and not 'green rain' things?

what happens if you put mixed flower seeds in ginger island

#

Did they change Qi's prismatic grange quest? Copper did not work as a dye for orange

#

i had to use my carrots because copper didnt work

#

pineapples also dont count apparently

#

i guess they're more yellow

#

but MANGO doesnt count as well

terse apex
#

Pineapples have always been yellow, yes.

#

Mango is yellow too

manic notch
#

i feel like mango should be orange

#

but copper really didnt work which was weird

terse apex
#

Yeah, that's weird.

manic notch
#

hay and coffee bean didnt work for yellow too

#

idk I'll double check when it comes around again

terse apex
manic notch
#

hm weird

terse apex
#

Coffee bean would've been orange, if it had worked 😉

#

I kinda wish they did, then I could have regrowable crops for every color on the island.

manic notch
#

i didnt try earth crystal there

#

I'll check copper again next time

terse apex
#

Earth crystal usually works for orange.

#

I generally have a few crystallariums with those just for that.

Cancel automation.

Oh no i dontt do that

#

Yes

#

What enchant for hoe and pan?

hollow abyss
#

it only happend to me at volcano caverns tho

#

but if u pass out u lose nothing

hollow abyss
#

if u havnt compleeted the museum go for archeologist

#

i think pan has that too

harsh trellis
#

Ok

wooden oyster
hollow abyss
#

why do u need swift on a late game hoe

harsh trellis
#

True

#

On picaxe swift is good

wooden oyster
#

I just like swift on everything lol.

harsh trellis
#

But for axe i would say shaving

hollow abyss
#

i understand

harsh trellis
#

Hoe and pan idk

hollow abyss
#

swift feels like you have animation cancel built in

lime jacinth
#

Hoe and can reaching for that sweet 5x5

wooden oyster
#

Personally, the enchantments on the tools minus masterful for fishing don’t matter much to me. So I like swift.

hollow abyss
#

for watering can im 50/50 between reaching and bottomless

wooden oyster
#

Oh and bottomless for watering can.

#

Love that one.

harsh trellis
#

Bottomless better

#

Yeah

lime jacinth
#

Bottomless is moot in late game when you can enchant anyway

hollow abyss
#

for fishing i use preserving

harsh trellis
#

For sword i have vampiric....which is shit

wooden oyster
hollow abyss
#

chalenge bait is so expensive to craft

harsh trellis
#

Ima get the crusader

lime jacinth
#

If you actually need to water, why have it inefficent, you save more time with reaching

wooden oyster
#

No need to fill your can with water in the volcano for example.

hollow abyss
#

crusader is only good for mummies not much use other than that no?

harsh trellis
#

Mummies and few others

hollow abyss
#

like?

#

i know its bonus damage to undead

#

does taht count the void spirits

lime jacinth
#

Ghosts take extra damage and the skulls in the quarry

hollow abyss
#

theyre pretty much alive

harsh trellis
#

50% more damage to mummies, ghosts, skeletons, and void spirits. Allows killing mummies without the use of bombs.

lime jacinth

Void not afaik

oh

i do that but

#

they just eat alot lol very hungry animals

#

i had to open ot to the side so they can eat regular grass

wooden oyster
#

Lol I guess the space isnt big enough. Blue grass lasts longer right?

hollow abyss
#

i thought it would last longer but they eat it at the same rate as regular grass

#

it just gives extra heart points and happiness i guess

wooden oyster
#

Ah dang. I thought they lasted longer.

hollow abyss
#

CA should change it

#

like make it twice as hard to eat since its description is a chewier grass

noooo I got a green rain on a sunday I can't watch the queen of sauce episode 😭

#

or ye just watch it on wednessdays

wooden oyster
#

Moss spreads right?

karmic lava
#

You can just buy the queen of sauce book

wooden oyster
#

Or do they disappear?

hollow abyss
#

moss just kinda stays there

#

if u dont harvest them they dont

wooden oyster
#

Tree farm and let it spread sounds logical.

karmic lava
# hollow abyss

Remove the fences and put grass, then put the fences back. Grass under objects can't be eaten

hollow abyss

if you look closely i have something placed in the grass

Parrot practically mediocre, but theoretically god tier basically

#

It is however consigned to the realm of theory

wooden oyster
tough remnant
#

Yeah

wooden oyster
#

Yeah I read you talking about that. Super weird.

vapid furnace
#

Hear me out, Mr. Qi is Santa

wooden oyster
tough remnant
#

Yeah, mediocre not terrible

wooden oyster
tough remnant
#

Main issue is that you practically require very good infested floors to make it work

wooden oyster
#

Especially at that stage of the game. Definitely not worth the effort.

tough remnant
#

Not convinced dust sprites are optimal either BTW

wooden oyster
tough remnant
#

I think grubs tend to spawn slightly denser, and perhaps most importantly, stay together in a cluster rather than running away and scattering

wooden oyster
tough remnant
#

The upside of dust sprites is that ice floors don't have duggies

vapid furnace
#

Forest floors have grubs and mushrooms

tough remnant
#

But realistically you probably choose whichever has best infested floor location

wooden oyster

#

anyone here use the sdv profit calculator? i have a question about it

#

Its just a setting thats confusing me, I put in for spring that Ill have 360 strawb crops, and will be selling them as wine where possible (only have like 60 kegs lol). theres an option that says "sell raw" which I had assumed meant like "If you don't have enough kegs, you sell raw what you can't keg" but it seemingly randomly changes all the other crop profits

#

Strawberry doesn't change, and clearly the setting doesn't do what I think it does

#

Just confused what's changing lol

wooden oyster
#

Ah yeah. I don’t have any experience with the calculator itself to be able to help. Are you in Spring Y2? Or Y1?

dense reef
#

Winter Y2, was just looking to see next year

#

Fairly casual player but want to finally get perfection, just interested to see if its reasonable at this pace

Oh deluxe speed gro

I cant lie i have never used fertiliser or retaining soil or speed gro

quaint shard
#

does anyone else have bad good luck days and good good luck days

dense reef
#

Although even still im saving my money rn

wooden oyster
#

Gotcha. So let’s assume you get 5 harvests. So 1800 strawberry by end of spring.

That’s 240 wine and 1560 strawberry.

240 win x 504g per wine = 120,960g
1560 strawberry (avg silver quality) x 165g per strawberry = 257,400g

So roughly 379k gold.

dense reef
#

Okay nice, thanks

wooden oyster
dense reef
#

Yeah

#

Not viable for perfection at that pace but I plan to completely fill the quarry with kegs and stuff like that so it should get better

what are the best ways to get a LOT of wood? besides buying it, don't make that much money atm lol

wooden oyster
# dense reef Okay nice

That’s actually an option if you’d like for money for perfection. Do dangerous mines to get wood, hardwood, and radioactive ore. Radioactive bars sell for 4.5k a pop with Blacksmith. A solid 50 bars a day is 225k.

dense reef
#

Hate these bushes man

terse apex
#

There's a mod for that 😉

#

But yeah, they're in the way. Massively.

#

If you want to go fast, invest some time/materials in putting down paths, with holes for the tree seeds. Then you can just run over those holes holding whatever key/button is required to plant seeds and plant 😉

wooden oyster

#

I stole the idea somewhere, I think XD I'm not that smart either.

Nah fr tho, an entire wheel of cheese is worth a lot of money

That ain’t cheap! Shoot, I would love a wheel of cheese lol.

Wonder how much it actually costs. I just know they aren’t cheap.

golden pond

#

aren't the uhh magic rock candy infused with the prismatic shards or somethin'

by that logic would that mean a prismatic shard is possibly edible if we try hard enough

vagrant sigil
#

abigail would eat a prismatic shard so

stray swift
#

you can turn a few inedible items into edible items

#

so yeah i suppose so

Abigail is one of the only persons you can say “eat rocks” to and it wouldn’t be an insult.

I said this before, and I will say it again

#

ConcernedApe showed that they are willing to make certain gifts have specific dialogues

Dried shrooms

Quartz still has the "How'd you know I was hungry?" quote

#

It's canon

For example, Crocus to Sandy? "Ah, even in winter, the Valley has the most beautiful flowers"

Something like that

i have the seafoam pudding so that's no problem

praying that it shows up at all first

#

i have lots of +3 fishing buff food

vapid furnace
#

If you want to sacrifice one of those trap bobbers, you can throw a quality bobber on there to make sure it's iridium quality

golden pond
#

You only really need one anyways

vagrant sigil
#

speaking of quality, i caught the angler with a perfect (but i had the fishing buff from the statue of blessings) and it gave me a normal quality one, what's up with that?

golden pond
#

I used a treasure bobber instead of quality because I wanted the Legend Roe. And I got it

#

Does Rancher affect processed animal products like Cloth

vapid furnace

#

smoked fish and dried fruits

vagrant sigil
#

ohh that makes sense

vapid furnace
#

I don't know everything to do with quality, all I know is "Distance from shore = better quality"

#

And since the pond is very small for the Angler, yeah

wooden oyster
vapid furnace
#

Similar situation to sandfish and scorpion carp

molten turret
golden pond
vapid furnace
#

Also, perfect catches only boost the quality if the fish is already silver or better

mmm crimson

Crimson is the easiest to catch right?

#

Or is it the sewer one?

vagrant sigil
#

angler is

#

atleast in my case

#

i think then the sewer, followed by crimson

wooden oyster
#

Gotcha. Don’t remember entirely. I just remember glacierfish is the worst.

#

For me at least.

midnight knoll
#

I checked the wiki, with the fisher enchanted pan you can pan up legendary fish multiple times

pseudo rune
#

Has anyone ever caught a legendary fish by accident?

terse apex
#

Hooked, yes. Caught, no. I let them go

vagrant sigil

glacierfish was pretty okay with me, i think i only struggled twice because it kept zooming up

I am just staring at this menu... horrified.

I know I can do it, I have plenty of space on my farm for crops... but... no

i keep getting extended family and junimo cart

I've never done that one even once. righ tnow it's winter and I need to restock fiber so that's how the crop space is being used

Qi can take his beans and ... do you know what with them

#

I wish feast of the winter star gave you some nice decorations or something, even in Y1 the gifts just really aren't anything special

Out here giving out iridium quality rabbits feet to get a nautilus shell back

vapid furnace

That's your problem

#

Giving gifts to the wrong people

dense reef
#

Well other than the tea set, I just mean that every villager should have a couple furniture items and you get one of them rather than the other stupid shit you get

You gotta leave out some milk and cookies for santa! 🙂

btw do you keep the enchantments when you upgrade your weapons to infinity version

dense reef
#

yeah

vapid furnace

I think you keep everything on it

manic notch

even weapon appearance?

vapid furnace
#

Minus the sword's sprite

#

oh

vapid furnace
#

Meowmere Galaxy Sword?

manic notch
#

i wanna get penny's unique weapon from calico egg event

#

then apply the skin

dense reef
#

just apply it to the infinity weapon

manic notch
#

gues i'll wait for infinity weapon

#

yea

dense reef
#

yeah

vagrant sigil
#

you can have skins for your weapons?

molten turret
#

You can have skins for boots too

vagrant sigil
#

ohh, you just sew your weapons basically

midnight knoll
#

You cant do the frying pan and infinty sword though, since the frying pans a club

dense reef
vagrant sigil
#

ohhhh. that makes sense

#

thanks, i'm gonna have so much fun with this knowledge

dense reef
#

Love the meowmere but i'm a hammer guy

neon owl
#

does anybody have an image with a good setup for the new shroom logs and mossy trees to max moss growth

midnight knoll
#

Why would you need mushroom logs for that

neon owl
#

well picture your typical tree farm

#

of just a clump of trees

#

the shroom logs grow more shrooms depending on trees in their radius

#

so for instance right now i have a 4x6 patch of trees

manic notch
#

do you want more trees or more log

neon owl
#

8 trees of each basic type

midnight knoll
#

Yea, i know. I thought you meant you needed them for the moss

neon owl
#

ah no the wierd trees interact with moss

#

so i'm not sure how you would place them to affect moss growth on your trees(probably unimportant tbh)

#

get enough moss for the year from green rain

#

for the record this is in the patch of trees you set your tappers

primal gate
#

What's the efficient use of the dehydrator?

neon owl
#

placing mushroom logs in the tapper patch

neon owl
#

dehydrator gives more value than preserves

#

so any fruit you aren't turning into wine is good for it

vapid furnace
#

Like blueberries or cranberries, since you get a lot of them

primal gate
#

Oh okay that's nice. Thank you

neon owl
#

i half wonder if he will make them more expensive to craft because right now they are prettty darn good

neon owl
#

just objectively the best way to use fruit (that isnt wine) i feel sorry for preserves jars

gray oriole
#

Mushroom logs get penalized for using moss trees

neon owl
gray oriole
#

To clarify, moss trees as in the one from green trees

neon owl
#

yes

#

wierd trees that make other nearby trees grow moss a bit faster

gray oriole
#

You get bonuses for every tree near the the log but the moss trees dont count as valid tree types so they get halved

neon owl
#

wierd.

drowsy steeple
#

is there a good way to count how many starfruits this is

neon owl
#

yeah seems like for your tapper setup, just putting some shroom logs in the center is the move

tough remnant
neon owl
#

and to gather moss just go all in on green rain every year

gray oriole
#

Specifically, the droptable for mushroom logs is dependent on nearby trees

drowsy steeple
#

thanks

primal gate
#

The dehydrator is the new preserve jar now aye?

gray oriole
#

But for some reason moss trees dont have an output so having them near logs will make logs give more common mushrooms due to counting as valid trees but not valid outputs

neon owl
tough remnant
#

No it isn't

neon owl
#

higher value no?

tough remnant
#

Not per fruit

gray oriole
#

Dehydrator is x1.5 + 25 or gold quality equivalent with a small bonus

#

Jars are x2 + 50 or iridium quality with bonus

neon owl
#

someone told me it takes the value of the 5 fruit and just x2's it

tough remnant
#

That's wrong

neon owl
#

yeah that makes my advice totally wrong, lol

tough remnant
#

Final product is 7.5x the base value of the fruit +25

gray oriole
#

The main thing for dehydrators is they do the equiv of 15 jars of work

tough remnant
#

Divided by the 5 fruit that's used, it's 1.5x +5 per fruit

drowsy steeple
#

theoretically you should be able to sell dried nothing for 5g

gray oriole
#

If ur using a fruit with very high output like berries it takes too many jars to process

drowsy steeple
#

put air in dehydrator

tough remnant
drowsy steeple
#

per nothing is my new favorite metric

neon owl
pseudo rune
#

I understand nothing

neon owl
#

and dehydrators are faster and process more as well

molten turret
#

i will be laughing now

#

okay proceed

tough remnant
#

That said, Dried Qi Fruit is actually better than Qi Fruit Wine

molten turret
#

so dried blueberries are better right

neon owl
#

it seems preserves are better for the high value low yield fruit like melon or starfruit

#

but these are the fruit you turn into wine also

tough remnant
# molten turret so dried blueberries are better right

If you have enough jars for all the blueberries, you should jar the blueberries. (Or wine - blueberry jelly and wine are same profit, but you need way less jars). Dehydrators are good because you probably do not have enough jars.

gray oriole
#

Jars are better than kegs for high quantity low value veggies i think? Also mushrooms cant be kegged but can be jarred

neon owl
#

so preserves kinda gets thrown to the side, to be used for roe or i guess high value veggies

midnight knoll
#

Qi beans are better in the dehydrator though

gray oriole
#

For mushroom tap farms u want jars for purple mushrooms

tough remnant
#

Qi Fruit is Jars > Dehydrators > Kegs

tough remnant
#

You can now

gray oriole
#

U can preserve any produce with positive healing

neon owl
#

you're talking jars not dehydrator right

gray oriole
#

Yes

midnight knoll
neon owl
#

wow

gray oriole
#

Jar is universal

#

Dehydrator is shrooms and fruit only

tough remnant
gray oriole
#

Keg doesnt work on shrooms and some stuff

neon owl
#

i always dehydrate my shrooms

midnight knoll
gray oriole
#

Jar is the “default” basically

neon owl
#

i just dont like jars anymore lol

#

they are honestly kind of expensive, and slow

#

i keep them around for roe and veg but dehydrators feel far more efficient

tough remnant
#

But you can jar all forage that isn't poisonous now

sacred river
#

8 coal per jar is no joke

molten turret
#

you can buy it smh

tough remnant
#

Dehydrators are less effort

neon owl
#

i feel like jarring any non ginger or desert forage would just be a waste of time

molten turret
#

it's like 2,000g per 8 coal

sacred river
gray oriole
#

Iirc 200g is the cutoff point for veggies to use in jarring instead of keg?

gray oriole
#

Anything more than that and the 25% extra bonus from kegs is worth more than the +50 from jars

neon owl
#

i mean if you have an open keg yeah put veg in kegs

#

but kegs are always full of coffee or fruit

drowsy steeple
#

clint can be as incel as he wants he's my favorite merchant can't live without him

neon owl
#

to get that big cask bonus

gray oriole
neon owl
#

if you have the jars yeah

gray oriole
#

Its x2.25 with no flat bonus for keg veggies

#

x2 +50 with jars

neon owl
#

man i wish hoppers were better

#

or just add an auto grabber

#

let's go full factorio

drowsy steeple
#

please cmiiw but agriculturist takes into effect when planting right

gray oriole
#

We got mods for that thankfully

neon owl
#

i'm a purist

midnight knoll
tough remnant
#

Nah, industrialisation is extremely against theme for SDV

tough remnant
#

It's a pastorialist fantasy

drowsy steeple
#

pastoralism without any of its drawbacks

neon owl
tough remnant
neon owl
#

right now i think hoppers are basically only good for like

#

mass recycling or smelting??

#

so you just load the hoppers then every so often take the bars/trash out

#

doesnt really cut down that much time though

#

hence me not really knowing what hoppers are for

hollow abyss

going for perfection anyone here knows what the missing 2 is?

OH you're saying for putting in a deconstructor to get the bar lol my bad

yeah if there was an auto grabber they would be really good but yeah that would change the game a little too much probably

Does the wizard comment if u marry abigail

drowsy steeple
#

speaking of, is there any advantageous spouses mechanics-wise

neon owl

the only advantages besides emotional are the gifts they can give

drowsy steeple

and how easy it is to woo them

neon owl

Abigail probably the best for gifts

neon owl
#

like for regular spouses?

midnight knoll
#

Yes

gray oriole
#

Yes

neon owl
#

shit

gray oriole
#

Its very lame

neon owl
#

thats ok ill just gift them everyday to offset it

pseudo rune
#

Are you joking?

neon owl
#

im going for perfection lol i cant worry about not gifting people because you aren't emotionally mature

midnight knoll
#

No, but a loved gift will counteract it

neon owl
#

luckily abigail is pretty cheap in that department

pseudo rune
#

Will they have different dialogue after I've given something to someone elsE?

neon owl
#

amethyst or a litney of easy to make foods

why is prismatic an universal love anyway

Its a % chance to be jealous

tough remnant

I think its also dependent on daily luck?

You can get perfection with 0 hearts with all bachelors and bachelorettes

tough remnant
drowsy steeple
tough remnant
#

Kids unnecessary.

tough remnant
gray oriole
neon owl
#

don't you need all the achievments for perfection which requires lots of 10 heart relationships?

drowsy steeple
neon owl
#

yeah and recipes?

gray oriole
#

Ignoring waivers

tough remnant
midnight knoll
#

And linus

gray oriole
#

But 8 hearts should be enough

neon owl
#

and recipes right?

tough remnant
#

Spouse candidates other than Shane and Emily don't have recipes

#

They only have them because they weren't originally candidates at all

neon owl
#

i could have sworn there was a part of perfection that required marriage+2 kids

#

i guess it's just the achievment

flint tusk
#

Guys

neon owl
#

that's ok i'll marry abigail anyway

midnight knoll

#

After marriage is it possible to divorce?

midnight knoll

Yes but they sit at 0 hearts iirc?

#

okay why the hell are pickled tea leaves worth more than actual tea?

neon owl
drowsy steeple
gray oriole
neon owl
#

never heard of that. sounds very bitter

#

but the real answer is probably balancing, since tea requires no water and can grow inside your house year round

mellow atlas
#

irl

neon owl
#

i have never heard of pickled tea leaf tea

#

that just seems gross lol

gray oriole
#

And yeah ape didnt want a cooking meta

neon owl
#

tea with pickle flavor

tough remnant
#

I guess selling tea is like... the equivalent of selling bottled or can tea as a liquid

mellow atlas
neon owl
#

does it taste like a pickle?

mellow atlas
#

its not, its good for you when you have a cold

neon owl
#

just imagining vinegar, salt, sugar flavor in my tea sounds off

mellow atlas
#

its a mild bitter

#

no

drowsy steeple
neon owl
#

you sure you dont mean fermented not pickled

mellow atlas
#

wait, dried tea leaves

drowsy steeple
#

Lahpet thoke, Burmese tea leaf salad or pickled tea salad is a favourite national dish.

mellow atlas
#

its a mixture of chinese traditional and burmese

tough remnant
#

But yeah, wild that we can't dry the tea leaves

neon owl
#

yeah eating pickled tea leaves makes sense from a culinary standpoint

drowsy steeple
#

also hi fellow SEAn

mellow atlas
#

Its very good to eat, i promise its good

neon owl
#

but pickling a tea leaf, drying it, then using it for tea makes no sense lol

mellow atlas
neon owl
#

yeah i am not a fan of non-herbal teas but i would try pickled tea leaves i love trying new food

#

and i love all kinds of pickles from across the world

tough remnant
#

I only really enjoy spicy teas personally

neon owl
#

i don't think there could be anywhere in america i could find that however

mellow atlas
#

spicy, sour and not really bitter

neon owl
#

or at least not in my state

#

not a huge demand for burmese food

mellow atlas
neon owl
#

the big thing in america right now is korean food

#

or at least in my state

mellow atlas
#

food yummers

neon owl
#

some korean foods i really like, i have developed a taste for kimchi and enjoy it, i also like stuff like tteobokki

drowsy steeple
#

burma isn't famous for its food unfortunately

neon owl
#

but there is a lot of korean food i just cannot understand

#

has ape spoken about adding other recipes

#

from a gameplay standpoint i see it could be tricky, because you have to learn them from somewhere or buy them so he would have to add sources for all that

#

yeah never mind adding food seems like a hassle tbh

#

because then you also have to contend with "why should i add this food and not this food"

crimson olive
#

Can I still buy joja perfection waivers if I repair the community center?

neon owl
#

if you fully repair it or do you mean just partway

crimson olive
#

Full repair

midnight knoll
#

Either route is fine

neon owl
#

because afaik you can do both as long as you don't fully waiver or fully repair? maybe? i would need to reread the wiki

the ginger island joja stuff does not rely on you going the joja route

assuming you have maximum time and are using every single plot of land efficiently, animals are more lucrative than crops no

#

like year 10 hypothetical assuming you have your entire farm filled with whatever animal is most lucrative, with sheds to fully process all their product

#

not gold chickens though

drowsy steeple
neon owl
#

according to the internet yes if you have your professions set up for it they are more lucrative if you have maximum ostriches (or gold chickens but duh)

drowsy steeple

that moves the fishing spot by 1.5 tiles it should be enough to slightly nudge the bubbles

i literally never knew you could aim your rod in that way lmao

#

does any NPC ever tell you that in the game

vagrant sigil
neon owl
#

i have only ever cast it straight

vapid furnace
#

I think there are cases where the bubbles are completely unreachable

vagrant sigil
#

nope, i just randomly learnt of it

vapid furnace
#

especially in the early game when your bobber doesn't go far at all

vagrant sigil
#

yeah

tough remnant
vapid furnace

I just imagined it like a cartoon, where the Farmer charges up their fishing rod with all their strength, like they are about to go Super Saiyan or something.

It often looks like more temporarily due to the height of the bobber during the cast

Probably the best thing about crusader is not needing to bomb mummies anymore

You know i think Bug Killer on paper is OP but then you use it and then realize that you dont really mess with the bugs anyways.

tough remnant

Why do you want to kill the bugs

#

They don't do shit

drowsy steeple
#

in case there's only a single bug in the room

#

or two near each other

warped yew
#

idk cause its the unkillable insect and i was like super hyped when i first got Bug Killer and i did a skull caverns dive and realized crusader was probably vastly better.

Even more so now with Desert Festival Assassin Bugs are annoying but doable, angry mummies are FNAF animatronics comes to life in stardew
