[eternal linden]

It is just easier when half the fishing zone is green

[open basin]

Today, we feast.

[eternal linden]

Also I found out that I can get 9K from fishing in 3 days, so I could probably marry Haley by the dance if I wanted to

The 9K is starting from level 0 and ending at level 5, so I could probably do more if desired

[gray oriole]

way more if you're good enough

the guaranteed rain on day 3 can net you 10k alone if you can consistently catch catfish

[eternal linden]

I believe I can get around 8K per day at level 10

[gray oriole]

at the higher end, every rainy day in spring is a good 20k or so

[eternal linden]

Ye

[gray oriole]

if you have smokers it can go even higher

[eternal linden]

I find they usually have about 5 rainy days per spring yr 1

[mellow atlas]

i think it depends

[woven tusk]

For a moment I thought this meant EXP rather than coins so I was a bit confused-- "shouldn't 9k be just below Lv9 rather than Lv5?"
It did not occur to me to question how 9k exp in three days would be possible

[mellow atlas]

but i thought there were some 2 days that are guaranteed

or was it the summer

[woven tusk]

Spring guarantees rain on day 3 y1 only
Summer guarantees two storms every year

[eternal linden]

If you get the book seller to sell you cave jelly and ocean jelly then you could focus on the mountain lake and just turn in any books you get for smokers

[woven tusk]

Bookseller's jelly can change?

[eternal linden]

Ye

[woven tusk]

Damn, I should keep an eye on that. Thank you

[eternal linden]

Each time they visit it is any one of the three kinds

[woven tusk]

Need more ocean and cave jelly but can't fit the time in my schedule for properly collecting it

[mellow atlas]

i just updated my old shed

[gray oriole]

if i have something i need to do in town that involves money I like to fish at the docks until a few hours before closing time and then sell to willy for some last minute cash

[eternal linden]

Only spring 3 year 1 is guaranteed rainy in spring, but usually odds give you about 5 total in my experience

[gray oriole]

if u do daily quests u also tend to get sent all over the place to fish

[woven tusk]

My next day in Stardew has an almost-perfectly placed Mine infestation so I need to spend the day spamming that floor for Dust Sprites

[mellow atlas]

i heard the steps determine rainy days

idk if it still works

[eternal linden]

That was the old way

Now the valley weather is predetermined but occasionally changes

[mellow atlas]

that's nice

[woven tusk]

Nowadays, Mouseypounds' predictor can actually predict weather (on the mainland; GI apparently uses a different method)

[eternal linden]

Any sunny day may become windy, any rainy day may become storm

[woven tusk]

I had two storms in autumn. I'd forgotten that was even possible.

[eternal linden]

I use it to plant 496 parsnips so that I never have to water them

[mellow atlas]

what is the difference of windy days?

[woven tusk]

More batts for me tho

[woven tusk]

Nothing, just leaves/petals/etc blowing around

[eternal linden]

None mostly, some fish won't come out

[mellow atlas]

for what reason

is it minmax run or what

[eternal linden]

Level 6+ farming for little effort

[woven tusk]

I think no fish cares about wind because the sun-only fish are in the seasons without wind anyway

[eternal linden]

Yr 2 perfection

Yr 1 is now possible I think but beyond me

[woven tusk]

Hm, so if you water anything, it'd only be a small number of CC ones... Or you just use Joja

[eternal linden]

Yeah, small amount of CC ones plus a few others for gifts

I have a few goals for yr 1 to make yr 2 less cluttered

Such as walnut room, level 10 in everything, and at least 5-10 villagers at max hearts

Also most if not all stardrops

I guess maybe more than a few goals lol

[carmine patio]

do u just lose any rewards you dont' collect in squidfest

[eternal linden]

Yes

[carmine patio]

fu

i have no inv space

[eternal linden]

You need to catch the squid and collect by the end of each day

[gray oriole]

bring a chest with u

[eternal linden]

I would say just reset

[carmine patio]

reset?

also do u get any more shit if you get past 8 squids

[gray oriole]

no

[carmine patio]

[gray oriole]

if u fuck up too badly u can exit to title screen to redo the day

[eternal linden]

If you exit the game then hop in again it starts you in the morning

[gray oriole]

i don't recommend doing it too often or you'll burn out though

[eternal linden]

What do you mean "burn out"

[gray oriole]

if you reset whenever u make the tiniest mistake or things don't go as planned, you might repeat a day multiple times, dozens of times

[eternal linden]

Oh, yeah I am usually fine with that

[gray oriole]

if you do that everytime you make a mistake everyday you make a mistake, you might be playing thru a season longer than it'd take to do an ingame year

[open basin]

Fr, I second that

Sometimes you end up playing the same day... the whole day

Making the tiniest mistake

[carmine patio]

i didn't fuck up i'm just out of space lolz

[eternal linden]

I don't on my casual saves, but I often reset on my challenge runs

[gray oriole]

at the extreme end u become a minmax runner who repeats day 1 for hours trying to get an optimal start where u have 0.1 luck and lots of forageables

[eternal linden]

Nifty

[carmine patio]

1 more skuwweed

[eternal linden]

What time is it?

[gray oriole]

eat a fish u only have 1 of to free up a space?

[carmine patio]

like 9

[untold kindle]

Has it always shown Maru in her nurse outfit when she's working or is that new

[carmine patio]

not new

[timid mountain]

atp sell some of the things that you can easily find again (trash can)

[crude talon]

i cant keep them all so which pumpkin and melon shall get the axe ❤️ i also have 2 more fiant pumpkins so maybe i wont keep these ??

[carmine patio]

all of them

blow em all up

[eternal linden]

Why not destroy all?

[timid mountain]

i would personally throw out the winter root, blackberries, and some of the red snappers

[carmine patio]

hilarious the blackberries are going no where

ez energy

[timid mountain]

I did say personally, you are free to do what you'd like

[gray oriole]

just eat the fish you have 1 of

[carmine patio]

eat all my fish? ok

squids first

[crude talon]

COZ i like them

[tidal obsidian]

whats bugging me though is that they aren't lined up with the pumpkins

[carmine patio]

the iridium rewards 10... not 8... frick LOL

welp we got no space anyways LOL

threw out the iron

and winter roots

and silver herring

[crude talon]

Same

[tidal obsidian]

if you have enough time id see about growing more powdermelons

[crude talon]

I have a other batch above the other 2 pumpkins I'm hoping

[carmine patio]

oh and i threw out the treasure chest since those r useless

[gray oriole]

wrong

each treasure chest is another pirate hat

very important

[carmine patio]

alr have 1

useless

i was chopping a tree and as it fell it went ARRRRGH and dropped one

my cat wore it for a season

[midnight knoll]

Giant qi fruit stays between quests

You can hoard some for next time, AND have a guardmelon for your farm!

[fallen prawn]

how does the book of stars work if you literally only have like one skill you need to max out

does it just funnel all the points into that one skill

[midnight knoll]

No

Id max out the skill first and then use it for mastery points

[fallen prawn]

so what happens if you say use like mining monthly if its maxxed out

[gray oriole]

so?

[midnight knoll]

Nothing unless you have mastery

[gray oriole]

you can never have enough pirate hats

[midnight knoll]

Pirate hat and copper pan are the only good hats

One for free mead and the other for saving space

[carmine patio]

so? uselss.

[eternal linden]

It is 8 then 10 I believe

[carmine patio]

naur

[gray oriole]

some ppl have bad taste ig

[carmine patio]

7 then 10

how is having a pirate hat bad taste

[gray oriole]

imagine only having 1

[carmine patio]

imagine wanting more than 1?

[gray oriole]

i don't need to imagine it

[carmine patio]

that's sad

how many do you have

[gray oriole]

no idea

[midnight knoll]

Do you have the deluxe one though

[gray oriole]

in fact I don't

volcano has not been kind

[midnight knoll]

I got it in around 8 chests, also got the dwarf dagger and hammer

[autumn cedar]

anybody know what the unshipped item on the right is

Ik the left is mystic syrup

[midnight knoll]

Raisins, get them from grapes in a dehydrator

[sacred river]

Raisins

[midnight knoll]

They also can upgrade junimos for a week if you put them in a hut

[autumn cedar]

oohhhh idk why I thought the silhouette looked like something else

[cursive marlin]

Is there anything new on Ginger besides Fizz and Joja bird?

I guess there’s new items from Mr. Qi too?

[urban wolf]

which mastery should i go for next? i alr have farming

[swift bay]

foraging or combat imo

[urban wolf]

"He's just like me fr"

[wise prawn]

im kinda mad that, unless i missed something, mushroom logs dont have any special interactions with mushroom trees

[gray oriole]

Idk makes sense to me

[urban wolf]

i see this as i got a mushroom log

[gray oriole]

Mushroom log and mushroom tree compete for the same nutrients

[urban wolf]

upgrading my house for my wife

[tidal obsidian]

bro is playing by himself and losing

[urban wolf]

"The stand user could be anyone!!!"

[woven tusk]

You vs the one they told you not to worry about

[gray oriole]

he's playing the ghost holding the pool stick on the other side of the table

[woven tusk]

Abigail put the spirit board under the pool table so the ghost could play

Sam is getting owned by a dude without a pulse. oooooof

[sick patio]

Any news on console 1.6 release?

[cloud oyster]

screw you pam, talked to me when leah had a whittler in her festival shop at 11:50, now i wont get it for years

hated you before, always will

[woven tusk]

Being worked on
No details available
Bugfixes and balance updates on PC take priority so that those can be in the console/mobile ports and CA can push one patch instead of multiple (PC updates are cheap to release; console/mobile updates have more fees and red tape)

[cloud oyster]

and i missed emilys outfit for the day by a second too

im peeved

[gray oriole]

console/mobile updates are a fucking pain in the ass

can take weeks to get it verified

[woven tusk]

It occurs to me that this means the PC playerbase is kind of beta testing it for console/mobile.
Test on prod... at least we're having a good time doing it

[sick patio]

I just got back onto it the other day so started a new game to get back into the feel for it. Tho will definitely new game it again for the update

[feral wyvern]

I’m so excited for it to come out on switch so I can be lazy &/or play on the go

I bought both pc & switch versions. One of my all time fav games

Most games that old never get updates, loving all of the content

[woven tusk]

Seeds for the new crops in each season can't be bought in the usual shops, and remixed bundles can ask for them. It kinda feels more genuine to have a crop like this in the bundles...
Carrots, the Spring one, add a twist to the earlygame. They sell for exactly as much as a Parsnip (i.e. not very much) but restore 75 hecking energy. Great source of it until Salmonberry season. And if you have a horse, you can feed a carrot to it to make it run faster for the rest of the day

[silent dawn]

I just started a new console game too. Though I may go and restart on pc because I am am running low on willpower to wait for the update 😅

[unkempt dome]

@silent dawn You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels and share images in all channels!

[feral wyvern]

O-o Horsie can go faster with a carrot???? Ahhhhh I wish I knew this earlier lol

[mental sail]

I love particularly how cheap the new crops are, it doesn't feel like I'm wasting money by eating them. Still keeping a stack in every fishing chest around the valley.

[maiden fiber]

Raisins

Why does discord open chat to shit from an hour ago lmao

Mb chase

[woven tusk]

Very functional app

[maiden fiber]

I pay good money for this app just to use 10 emotes and kekw :/

[woven tusk]

Worth it (probably)

[maiden fiber]

Just because if I use any other emotes it crashes lmao

[urban wolf]

i married you on fall 20 year 1

[maiden fiber]

That’s such a cute line

[woven tusk]

So the thing about dissing our shoes was just tsundere nonsense?

[mental sail]

negging

[maiden fiber]

That’s her way of flirting

[urban wolf]

when she says during the festivals that she'll "show me what she's thankful for" when we get home

[next lynx]

||are the new crops part of the polyculture achievement||

[autumn cedar]

lmfaoooo its ok

[maiden fiber]

She’s

[maiden fiber]

I’m gonna assume yes

That’s the one achieve I don’t have 💀

[next lynx]

pretty tedious but easy when you can just see the amount of stuff in the collections

[autumn cedar]

when haley says "youd be pretty if you wore some makeup actually nevermind" shes not calling you ugly she's just socially awkward and realized what she said could be taken as offensive

[maiden fiber]

If Haley & Emily had another sister, she’d be me

I feel like I’m both of them & Abigail combined lol

[woven tusk]

That just means the characters are relatable

[maiden fiber]

I love them the most

[woven tusk]

Planning my day in the steam overlay notes is particularly important for just making a checklist of what items I would wanna bring for the day

[maiden fiber]

Steam overlay notes? Is that a mod?

Or could I use in vanilla

[woven tusk]

It's part of Steam

[maiden fiber]

Ooooooo

[golden pond]

Is Winter 6 always worst luck?

[maiden fiber]

Wonder if steam deck uses that

[woven tusk]

idk it's what Welwick said

I include the luck prediction at the top so I don't forget and try SC delving with bad luck or whatever

[golden pond]

That that Ive seen, but its pretty easy to switch back and forth forth between programs

[maiden fiber]

Ooooooo for the notes?

[tidal obsidian]

do books sell for more if you sell them to the bookseller?

[golden pond]

Well, Idk how to do the overlay, but the deck can run multiple programs at the same time. So I could have like Google notes & Stardew up, then just switch back and forth between them

[maiden fiber]

Ooooo wow

I just got mine today hehe

[golden pond]

For me, I have cookie clicker and Stardew running at the same time, and the Coolie clicker music fits shockingly well with Stardew

[maiden fiber]

So any more tips is helpful

[cloud oyster]

why am i only catching trash from the desert pond, at this rate ima have to reset the whole day

23 casts, 1 fish, 22 trash

i need the golden bobber but i cant hook a fish wth

yup thats a reset

[grave violet]

wtf the scholar asked me how many steps ive taken

[gray oriole]

its always the middle amount

[grave violet]

oh okay

i just realised the buff 'magical shoes' from the calico statue is a refrence to the song magical shoes

[mellow atlas]

Can you put the frog egg trinket in the aquarium? I just saw a comment mentioning it but I don't have an aquarium yet

[onyx saddle]

doing the new easter egg hehe

[gray oriole]

yes

[untold kindle]

if anyone is in winter can you send a picture of the calendar in town pls I want to see how the squidfest is shown on it pls

[little knoll]

Hey where do I get moss?

[untold kindle]

trees

[little knoll]

Bet

[untold kindle]

it takes awhile to grow and any tool can get it

[little knoll]

Can bombs harvest them?

[gray oriole]

iirc the tree has to be above a certain age

[untold kindle]

no clue if bombs work

[gray oriole]

technically yes but that also kills the tree

generally if you want moss you need the tree alive to regrow more moss

[little knoll]

Eh I'm just harvesting cindersnap forest trees

[gray oriole]

if you want an actually noticeable amount of moss it's good to have a tree farm somewhere

better yet, put mushroom logs and tappers too since ur not cutting those trees down

[little knoll]

Bett

[cloud oyster]

the difference is crazy

[urban wolf]

today's run

[buoyant tendon]

GOD I JUST
is mister qi supposed to be like. a play on mystery
he is clearly responsible for the mystery boxes. i joked "haha what if they were just called mr. qi boxes" and realized that it sounds practically the same

[river solar]

is the traveling cart selling portrait of haley new in the update?

[buoyant tendon]

if you marry her yes that is new

[woven tusk]

Eh, he could have called them that if he wanted to. Remember that he does name plenty of other things after himself

[buoyant tendon]

anyone for if you marry them

[woven tusk]

Qi gems, Qi Fruit

(Also Krobus if you roommate him, but the req for all housemate portraits-- spousal or otherwise-- is 14 hearts)

[urban wolf]

what should i give my animal cracker to

or wait until i get an ostrich

[signal raft]

okay im reading the fairy box entry on the wiki
so it only heals for a fraction of the damage taken? or something? like it cant heal you to full or whatever?

[gray oriole]

the damage you deal is also included in the calculation

[urban wolf]

ehehe

at least 2 truffled

[gray oriole]

you'll still get healed by it if you never get hit and deal dmg

[feral wyvern]

I use mine on ostriches

[gray oriole]

ostriches are the best option if u just want raw money and aren't using shepherd or have perfection iirc?

[subtle mauve]

pigs are it

[gray oriole]

fish ponds are also an option if u want something other than money

[feral wyvern]

I use it in mayo maker. Keeps its star & gives 10

[gray oriole]

stingrays r pretty cool

[feral wyvern]

I love the ice trinket. Great in SC

[urban wolf]

i only have 2 mastery things rn'

im on year 2 summer

[subtle mauve]

L i have 4 and im also in summer

[urban wolf]

i have a life and friends

[subtle mauve]

same, no flex there

[feral wyvern]

I picked farming & combat first

That scythe is godly

[gray oriole]

fr

[subtle mauve]

ong scythe is cracked

then mining combat and fishing

[feral wyvern]

Iridium pan is god tier too

I get so much stuff from one pan spot

[subtle mauve]

tf thats a thing?

[feral wyvern]

Yeah you can upgrade at Clint’s now

[urban wolf]

there's more than 1 pan??

i barely use the normal pan

[feral wyvern]

You can go to iron/gold/iridum

Just like other tools

It gives me at least 8+ ores every pan now

& usually more than 1 thing

[autumn night]

I wonder what he names his fists, (for that secret cutscene where they beat the crap out of the player)

[subtle mauve]

who tf pans

[urban wolf]

i will never buy hay from marnie AGAIN

[feral wyvern]

I do at that spot in ginger island where it spawns all the time

[solar idol]

I'm convinced the prismatic butterfly after the first few spawns is not real

[urban wolf]

iridium scythe by BELOVED

[feral wyvern]

I actually plant more crops now bc of that scythe lol

[final ferry]

Y’all how do I find that raccoon a wife

[solar idol]

he finds one himself

[final ferry]

Ooooo, I thought I had to go searching

Ty :)

[autumn night]

It takes a while for them to have kids

[solar idol]

Prismatic Butterfly spawns anywhere in the forest, hidden woods, pelican town, the mountain, trainstation and beach only correct?(it doesn't spawn on ginger island or the desert right?)

[chilly bloom]

It doesn’t yeah

[subtle mauve]

whats that

[past lichen]

prismatic butterfly like terraria?

is it a easter egg?

[mental sail]

I really shouldn't pan on the farm when I'm planning to reset the day anyway, ofc I got a cool shirt that I don't want to lose.

[golden shore]

same happened to me earlier, had to complete the day lol

[mental sail]

soggy clothes, the most compelling reason to keep playing

[feral wyvern]

I’ve gotten so many clothes from panning lol

[mental sail]

that's probably the inspiration, but it's a good, harmless thing you sometimes get from mastery

[feral wyvern]

One of the boosts from a statue

[midnight knoll]

Ok so, i had 2 chickens yesterday, and had never installed mods. Is this normal?

[mental sail]

click the remaining one, is it distressed because something bad happened? Then the other might have been left outside and gotten by animals

[midnight knoll]

Ill check

Nope

[open basin]

What, can the animals really get eaten?

[midnight knoll]

If you leave them outside, but i think normally they just dissapear

[mental sail]

You have to be on the farm around the time they go into the coop, then somehow one can get left behind. If you stay away from the farm in the evening it never happens, and entering buildings sorts them out too.

[open basin]

Oh, it just disappears- so technically it gets eaten

I thought it was just a creepypasta 'cause It just never happened to me ngl lol

But it's in the wiki

[short ruin]

What is this orange box thing in my mushroom cave

[open basin]

dehydrator

[golden shore]

I dont think there's a raw chicken sprite in the game so it's gotta be a mod

[tidal obsidian]

do they give you one of those for free now?

[open basin]

If you get the mushroom cave, I think so ?

[jovial dune]

yep

[golden shore]

they had to give a reason to pick mushroom cave now that you can make mushroom logs

[tall mortar]

there is, but I don't think it gets used?

animal husbandry uses some default meat textures for the basic animals, I just don't think any of them get used by the base game

(I think there is like beef, lamb, chicken and uhhh...pork? textures in the base game, on the spring objects texture sheet)

[neat olive]

fun fact: pans have an enchantment that lets you catch fish

it's always regular quality but I still think it's funny to imagine

I wish the trout derby rewards didn't take so many clicks to redeem in bulk

[gray oriole]

fun fact that enchant can catch legendary fish

[tidal obsidian]

big chests are a really good addition lol

[wet lotus]

If you were to compare a dehydrator with a keg, You'd need 25 pieces of wine to compare 5 dehydrated fruit or something to compare it equally

Since the dehydrator uses up 5

While a keg and a jar uses 1

If not then the dehydrator definitely beats 5 sf wine with 5 dehydrated sf

[tidal depot]

Just got a ||Frog Egg trinket|| and I'm kind of disappointed that Sebastian doesn't say anything special if you have it equipped.

[gray oriole]

Gift him a frog egg

[tidal depot]

I more wanted him to comment on my little hoppy friend when it was out and about xD

But good call, I hadn't gifted it yet!

[near jay]

hey not to annoy anyone, is there an news about the new update onto the switch?

[broken portal]

quality bobbers

[austere sparrow]

what shoudl i do with lava eel

[golden pond]

Double cork bobber + Master enchantment & fishing food

[broken portal]

deluxe bait

desert food guy for another +3

[golden pond]

mhm mhm

[tidal obsidian]

no need to spoiler anything here

[broken portal]

you can get level 19 fishing

[austere sparrow]

can you duplicate fish

[broken portal]

master, qi seasoned seafoam pudding, desert food guy

[broken portal]

fish ponds, but it doesnt work with legendary fish

[golden pond]

Qi Seasoned Seafoam pudding sounds like it would taste amazing ngl

[austere sparrow]

lava eel

[broken portal]

yes

lava eel ponds are the best fish pond statistically anyway

[tender meteor]

Extended Family might be the best quest ever now.

[broken portal]

for sure

its actually broken

[eager lion]

@junior moat my husband and I are playing multiplayer and on the trout derby all the fisherman are doubled onto each other and glitched

[mellow atlas]

don’t forget to smoke them

[raven crest]

I am the husband. I also saw the doubled fishermen

[eager lion]

@raven crest please don’t lie on here

[frosty coral]

Frog Egg was my first trinket

it's pretty cool

Also got it fairly quickly too

[sacred river]

It's useless

The worst of all the trinkets tbh

[golden pond]

I forgot how does getting multiple hooks of Legend2 work again

I mean I know challenge bait lets you get 3 in one catch and all but what about after that

[sacred river]

That's
Exactly what you need and what it does?

[golden pond]

No but in the shot they have 8. Does the challenge just casually keep letting you fish up more?

[sacred river]

I would assume so

[golden pond]

Huh. Neat

[tender meteor]

As long as the quest is active, you can keep catching the pseudo-legends

[golden pond]

Amazing. Wonder if that’ll ever get nerfed

[gray oriole]

its not like its overpowered

you have to have extended family so it 's solidly locked behind endgame, and have to perfect fish legend fish and can only do it for 3 days whenever it appears

[austere sparrow]

Hi

[frosty coral]

Makes sense since the other options don't deny you monster drops or xp

but if I just wanna rush through mines/volcano for whatever reason it's kinda nice, though I guess Ice Rod would probably be better

[gray oriole]

if u wanna rush, golden spur would prob still be better

smack an enemy on your way past it for a speed boost

[golden pond]

I think its better that its end game ngl.

Plus Qi Room Spring Y2 is relatively easy to reach. The Extended Family quest was one of the first ones I got actually but I didn’t know about this at the time.

540k+ G in just Legend2’s is also pretty funny ngl lmfao

[frosty coral]

mfw Year 3 and still no Qi Room

but then again this is like my 3rd ever save file and the first one to make it past CC

[golden pond]

I recommend playing on remix bundles, a lot of them are much easier than the regular ones

[frosty coral]

Oh damn

Thought it would be the opposite way

[golden pond]

Like, the chance for the spring crops bundle requiring carrots or Kale instead of Cauliflower is so nice

Theres a bundle that just asks for either an ancient fruit or sweet gem berry

Not needing to do the Animal or Artisan bundles saves a lot of time and money

Requiring less rain fish for the fishing bundles

Not needing apples or red cabbage for the bulletin board

Not needing fire quartz for the boiler

Like, literally the last thing I needed for the CC was a Nautilus shell

[tidal depot]

It's habit so I don't mess up elsewhere.

[golden pond]

Like, theres still a chance you’ll get the same bundles as a regular game but its also a nice change of pace

[small lynx]

I just found a door hidden behind a tree in cinder forest on the lower right ...I have 4/5 to open it and I'm maxed on my skills except for one more level for fighting... Wonder what's inside

[golden pond]

You’ll like it. Just go complete a monster slayer goal or two and your whole world will change

[small lynx]

Also if I'm at 10 levels on skills are the books that give you skill levels worthless?

[sacred river]

You can trade them for stuff to the bookseller

Not entirely useless in terms of additional uses, but in its actual functionality and what they give, yeah they are

[jovial dune]

Cute!

[small lynx]

I mean as far as buying them if I haven't already and that skill is maxed out

[tidal axle]

hm... does using deluxe bait affect crab pot drops?

[maiden fiber]

Idk how it would

[sacred river]

No

[tidal axle]

ive been getting silver quality drops from crab pots

and sometimes they doubled

[maiden fiber]

Ohhh yeah

[tidal axle]

i thought maybe that could be thanks to the deluxe bait

[maiden fiber]

That is a thing

Deluxe Bait can also be used in a Crab Pot, where it decreases the chance of catching trash (if the player does not have the Mariner profession) compared to using standard bait and increase the quality of Crab Pot fish to silver.

[tidal axle]

ahhh so it DOES have an effect

nice!

[maiden fiber]

Ya I forgot it did that

[delicate stirrup]

YOOOOOOOOOO

YEAR 2

arent these like, really rare?

[gray oriole]

yes

[delicate stirrup]

i literally wasn't even looking for them

[twilit summit]

did i make a sword just for hay, yes i did

[delicate stirrup]

the irridium scythe, watching you make that

[kind ridge]

Pierre scammed me

[twilit summit]

its for breaking the normal fiber stuff

in the mines

got like ~130 hay with 350 fiber

does the iridium scythe work with that stuff too?

[sacred river]

Iridium scythe has a higher chance to get hay than its golden predecessor iirc

Fiber idk

[twilit summit]

i’m taking about the fiber things in the mines

haymaker works on that

but ye i know iridium is much better for normal grass

[mellow atlas]

?????? These finished a day early, im so confused

[twilit summit]

yoba blessed you

[wooden oyster]

The wine?

Wine takes 6-7 days depending on when you sleep throughout the time they’re in the kegs. I usually just check them on the same day every week even if they finish early.

[sacred pendant]

I thought part of the update was that once you reach mastery your hoe/watering can is able to go past 6x3 to 5x5, but I can't find anything on that online so I think it may be a mod? Anyone know?

[gray oriole]

not a thing

[sacred pendant]

Okay, huh.

[woven tusk]

That was in 1.5 and never had anything to do with Mastery

That's an enchant from the Ginger Island Forge

Its name is Reaching, I believe

[sacred pendant]

AAAAHHHHHHH

OKAY!

That explains it!

[tidal axle]

LETS GOOOO

[sacred pendant]

I took a bit of a break for a while and picked back up when 1.6 came out, so I must've just forgot

[woven tusk]

I've been away for about four years myself (last played in 1.4)

[tidal axle]

0.012% chance OH MY GOD

[delicate stirrup]

I ALMOST YELLED

[tidal axle]

theres this one guy who did the challenge of obtaining every item in the game

[delicate stirrup]

Wand Of Sparking sees that i got the work boots without trying and just assassinates me

[tidal axle]

you know about wos' everything challenge right?

oh my god yes 😭 i remember that vid so vividly

[delicate stirrup]

yep

[woven tusk]

It now occurs to me...
The estimated 36% hook rate for the Legend II using targeted bait, here, is higher than the estimated 32.52% hook rate for Sturgeons using targeted Sturgeon bait in the exact same location. But when I actually went there with Sturgeon Bait, I hooked 61.54% Sturgeons.
Getting more experimental data (for both Sturgeons and the Legend II, now) might be meaningful.

[gray oriole]

does speedgro reduce the grow time by time / 1.1 or time * 0.9

[rose oxide]

wild bait seems incredibly underwhelming, especially if the area you're fishing in has like 1 high paying fish type adn the rest is just carp or bullheads or crap

waste all your time fishign jsut to get like, double catches of carp or something

it's probably better when the fish you have on average are a bit better paying

i used it in the winter and i got nothign but like crappy catches from carp and bullhead, i should have saved it for some other season and used the rest of my sturgeon bait

[solemn hemlock]

man why doesnt powdermelon count as blue item for qis prismatic grange

[gray oriole]

prob forgot

[tidal axle]

that was a pretty good sc run

[rose oxide]

what floor did you get to?

[tidal axle]

ah,mn... thats kind of em,barrassing

let mec ehck

about 189

yeah thats not great

but oh well!

still learning to use this explosive ammo method so

ill cut myself some slack

[rose oxide]

that floor count isn't very high but jesus christ that's a really good run

most runs i get maybe 1 or 2 prismatic shards, and the autopetter is a huge W

[tidal axle]

yeah ive def done better

still new to this method it is insanely good

i was able to clear iridium so much faster

but i missed a lot of shafts 😭

[woven tusk]

×0.9 and then (usually) round in the player's favor

So an 11day crop grows in 9

[rose oxide]

using super cucumber bait is sooo cracked

[tidal axle]

oh my goodness 😭

[woven tusk]

Hunh, Pufferfish base value is 200, same as Catfish or Sturgeon. I didn't know that.

[tidal axle]

shard luck was on top this run 😭

[solemn hemlock]

funy

singular smoked blobfish that costs 4200 dolar

[tidal axle]

i dont mean to be rude but whats with your inventory? the extra ring and the qi seasoned roasted hazelnut is so funny

[woven tusk]

Well, 1G is closer to a penny than a dollar, but that's still a ridiculous price tag

[solemn hemlock]

kent birthday felt nice

[tidal axle]

awww he mustve loved it

[turbid lion]

Hey is there a way to gift books to villagers without reading them? Trying to give Pierre the Price Catalogue for his birthday as it's one of his new loved gifts, and I've had to reset the day twice now because I keep reading it even though the gift icon is visible

[solemn hemlock]

also yeah should proob store the ring normally but i keep it as a secondary ring when i mine for healing and the resurrection if i need it

[woven tusk]

Left click?

[tidal axle]

is it phoenix / vampirism?

[solemn hemlock]

yeh

[tidal axle]

i see,,,

and if i may ask, no offense but why is your weapon the slammer

is that a reskinned hammer?

[solemn hemlock]

ya

its looks cooler

[tidal axle]

thats awesome

[solemn hemlock]

i wish i could do the same with my toools

I still think it would be cool if you could like forge with rainbow shell to like recolor tools like how you can with some clothes

[rose oxide]

i like fishing :)

[turbid lion]

I tried that before, and couldn't get it to work. Tried again and apparently I had to click in a very specific spot for it to gift him, Thanks ^^

[woven tusk]

Good stuff. I did similar just recently

[rose oxide]

fishing will pay the bomb bills i'll use for the skull caverns

[woven tusk]

...And then over 100k worth of Starfruit wine was ready on the next day

[rose oxide]

and then i'll get shit loads of iridium bars to sell

[restive raven]

I'm still waiting for Alex to man the desert fest booth so I can reskin my hammer to his bat

[tidal axle]

yall think i should continue building this?

like, give it an enchant or a new innate enchant

[chilly bloom]

Dwarf dagger is only useful for Defense builds ngl

[tidal axle]

its the best ive got tbh

[chilly bloom]

Then try and find one actually worth making a build with

Even something like the wicked Kriis would be better

At the same progression point you’re at is the dragontooth shiv which is actually amazing

[tidal axle]

see thats the thing i told you its the best ive got

i know i can get better but luck isnt exactly treating me well

[chilly bloom]

Which is why I said go find another?

Like it’ll work if you want but I wouldn’t even bother with subpar daggers

[tidal axle]

so ill take that as a "no it's not worth investing in"

[chilly bloom]

It’s just an inferior weapon if it’s not the best for daggers tbh

Artful would be the best enchant on it tho

And I think you’ve gotten both innate enchants already

[tidal axle]

wdym by both?

[chilly bloom]

Max of 2 per weapon

Each has different stat pool

[tidal axle]

thats... odd... i thought you could only get one

[chilly bloom]

Looks like you got slime slayer and crit chance

[tidal axle]

no the crit chance is from triple aquamarine

[chilly bloom]

I don’t think you can get to 10 from the base 2 with just aqua

[tidal axle]

triple aqua gives +8

i would know because my galaxy sword is also triple aqua

and it went from 0 to +8

dont tell me ruby's better, i know, but this is funnier

[chilly bloom]

Daggers and swords work differently for crit tho

[tidal axle]

how so?

[chilly bloom]

Technically aqua is better though only in dedicated crit builds

[chilly bloom]

They have their own dagger modifier for crits but I assume that just isn’t taken into account for crit chance

[tidal axle]

interesting

[chilly bloom]

Each forge is a flat percentage

[tidal axle]

i think that kind of thing would be at the end like scout

[chilly bloom]

Nah

Pretty early

Right after aqua forges iirc

[tidal axle]

oh thats interesting

i meant like, in the calculation

like how scout is always last

[chilly bloom]

I know

It doesn’t make that much a difference except for the placement of additive and multiplicative boosts

[tidal axle]

gotcha

[restive laurel]

So how the heck do you get moss? The wiki says some random amount of trees will have some each day but I haven’t seen any

[sage whale]

Try to find trees with a shade of green on their trunks?

Finish the Giant Stump questline at Cindersap Forest

[chilly bloom]

They have to be considered older trees

Which takes some time or a green rain (rapidly ages trees)

[short cloud]

Not me putting a million trees all over my farm in hopes of getting a mushroom tree, and finally getting one on fall 25 (upper left corner) 😄

Now time to clean up all the other trees lol

Gonna start placing paths and stuff now that that is over with (after I clean up ofc)

[rose oxide]

is it more coal efficient to make explosive ammo or bombs?

[chilly bloom]

Depends on how good you are at using either

They have different uses

[silver magnet]

hm so there is a squid fishing event now?

[regal fulcrum]

Indeed. Probably because in CA's perception once Fishing is capped out, that's it. No more endgame fishing afterwards. "I got it to max. Now I can move on without worry."

[tender plinth]

found my first moss

[restive laurel]

Funnily enough I just did too!

[tender plinth]

i knew signs will be useful

[silver magnet]

smokehouse with automate and resource generator mod

smokey interest from my crab pot while i am renouvating my house

[plain flax]

I kept accidentally going into the basement instead of the front door for some reason, this keg sign since saves me valuable seconds every other day 😄

[dawn hill]

Who the heck is ||Fizz|| and what’s his deal?

[chilly bloom]

He sells perfection waivers

1% of perfection for 500k

Is in the mushroom cave on gi after you interact with the perfection tracker

[astral vine]

Same struggle, i often mistook the cellar entrance as house entrance xD

[short silo]

i have signs to remind me how many seeds to buy in order to fill my fields

[dawn hill]

That seems sus but okay

[chilly bloom]

The guy is sue in general ngl

[urban kiln]

what does there was a strong wind last night mean

[regal fulcrum]

The Large Tree has been knocked down thus beginning the Raccoon Requests (once they move in)

[short cloud]

EXCUSE ME MY FROG JUST ATE THE TRUFFLE CRAB I THINK???? I was harvesting truffles and my frog just ate something, I didn't even see it 😭 😭 😭

[glad stratus]

HRRRELLP

[short cloud]

Note to self, unequip the dang frog before picking up truffles

[glad stratus]

😡 decorate your house.

[plain flax]

Its odd but its in the spirit of the Joja route, where you can do everything with money alone.

Its 500K for 1% towards perfection.

So you can do nothing and get 100% for 50 millions.

[plain flax]

Hey its not THAT bad haha but I have not decorated yet thats true. I do that late game.

Until then its kind of a factory 😄

[short cloud]

and then theres me who has their 'factory' outside their doorstep, and my house is empty until I get around to decorating lol

[plain flax]

Tbh I barely bother decorating my house IRL.

Strict minimum and I'm happy haha.

[short cloud]

Honestly same

[fringe pecan]

WHY DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH STUFF IN YOUR LIVING ROOM........

[plain flax]

Conviniently accessible space must not be wasted 😄

[fringe pecan]

b-b-b-b-but...

sheds....

[short cloud]

I think the reason I don't place a bunch of machines in my house, is cause I know the moment those are placed down, there's 99% chance they are never moving from those spots again lol

[plain flax]

Sure, its great! Good oak, whole house smells of ancient fruit!

[plain flax]

Eventually I will move them. Not worth doing the big decoration day until I have all the catalogues, though.

[short cloud]

Funnily enough I do have all the catalogues already. I just haven't gotten around to decorating yet. I will at some point

I wish I could freeze time while decorating tbh

[golden pond]

Does the trash catalogue even have anything you’d actually want in your house

[plain flax]

There are mods for it, including pause time toggles. But honestly its no big deal to 'waste' a day decorating in Stardew.

After Y1, time doesnt really matter.

[golden pond]

Unless you want to make it look like Pam and Shane threw a 2-person rager at your house

[short cloud]

Yet I'm nearly end of y3 and still panic to get everything I want to do done in a day lol

[plain flax]

Maybe if you marry Shane, you can improve how realistic his sideroom is further? 😛

[chilly cypress]

Woah

Does anyone else

Click the

Concerned ape face when they log in?

[short cloud]

Yep known about that easter egg for many years oop

[golden pond]

Oh you got the new animation, lucky

[chilly cypress]

I just did and I got green leaves junimos

[short cloud]

Oh? did they change it?

[chilly cypress]

I guess cuz

I always do it

And it just came up this time different

[golden pond]

Theres two of them. The Junimo one is rarer

[short cloud]

Ohh I'll have to test it out. Didn't realize new animations were added

[plain flax]

Just remembered, 1.6.4 patch was supposed to drop this week. Maybe tomorrow!

CApe promised new goodies.

[short cloud]

Guys I'm still upset my dang frog ate the truffle crab 😔 I've spent the entirety of y3 waiting for it to appear and it finally does and I don't even get to see it

[golden pond]

RIP

[short cloud]

I'm at end of fall btw when it appeared

so gotta wait til next year now

Unless I get super lucky on the last day of the season lol

[plain flax]

I also have 5 sheds, no worries 😉

[plain flax]

Its insane to me that people are worried about a few seedmakers in a nook, but nobody ever yells at me for leaving permanently-lit torches just standing there on wooden floors year-round 😁

[robust spoke]

CA please

give me 1.6.4

[glacial zephyr]

65 hours and half way through summer year 3, Am i cooked?

[vale quartz]

I know CA has given us so much and i feel selfish asking for more but I WIIISSSHH we could pause time to decorate our houses

[vale quartz]

im 85 hours in and I just got to day 1 of year 3 lmao

[glacial zephyr]

lol i did speed run winter and allot of spring

im only just about to get ginger island

[vale quartz]

oh yeah im basically a 6am to 1:50am every day type of player lmao

i had ginger island in winter of year one 😅

[glacial zephyr]

what bro

ive only just completed community centre

becuase i had to wait another year for a poppy

[vale quartz]

yeah i usually have the community center completed by winter 3 year one at the latest

but a lot of the times i complete it in fall of year one

[glacial zephyr]

damn

i mean this is my first playthrough

[vale quartz]

omg welcome

enjoy the game <33333

(i have 1500 hours)

[glacial zephyr]

bro honeslty ive known about the game for years but just didnt know it was good

like really good

[vale quartz]

its soooooooo good

im glad you finally played!!!

i would give so much money to play this game for the first time again

[robust spoke]

I need red cabbage

but its already like spring 22

and I have no red cabbage seeds

its joever

[glacial zephyr]

lol i got shivers when i completed the community centre

[sacred river]

After all these hours of gameplay

Finally, I have them all

[glacial zephyr]

lucky ahh

idk if im lucky my friend is about the same hours on his farm and hasnt found 1 ancient seed and ive found 10+

[short silo]

i always just sacrifice whichever plants are in my greenhouse to the seed maker until i get a seed

[wooden oyster]

Take some time to collect?

[sacred river]

About 10 or so full SC runs

[wooden oyster]

Oof. That's actually significant.

[glacial zephyr]

is it worth to have my green house full of ancient seeds?

fruit*

[wooden oyster]

Yeah

[glacial zephyr]

i thoughtstar fruit was better?

[sacred river]

Yeah the drop rate is quite low, about 0.5% from my experience. You need to kill hundreds of monsters to get even just a few

[wooden oyster]

starfruit and ancient fruit are both good. Depends on your preference. Starfruit more profit, ancient fruit more maintenance.

[sacred river]

Starfruit is more profit for more maintenance
Ancient fruit is less profit for less maintenance

[wooden oyster]

I'm assuming you can get a bunch of dupes too right? So really, you're just hoping you get the trinket you're missing?

[sacred river]

Both are extremely good

[wooden oyster]

Lol thanks. I just read mine back. XD

[sacred river]

Yeah dupes can be common

[plain flax]

Now you need perfect copies of em all 😉

[sacred river]

All about rolling the dice

[sacred river]

Ok cool
I just need 36383683379292 iridium bars

[glacial zephyr]

huh

[wooden oyster]

What's a perfect copy? like multiple versions of the frog for example? or level 5 fairy?

[glacial zephyr]

whats everyones favourite event?
mine is the desert festival.

[sacred river]

Basilisk paw and frog egg don't have perfect variants

Also hair gel but that's vanity

[wooden oyster]

Gotcha.

[plain flax]

Its different for each of them, but some have variable stats and others variable levels. They can be rerolled on a mini forge for some iridium bars. Each them theres a 5% chance itll turn perfect.

[wooden oyster]

Right, got it. So that's what everyone's talking about when they say they're rerolling their trinkets. Makes sense.

[sacred river]

I got a perfect golden spur and quiver from drops alone

I wouldn't suggest using the anvil for reforging unless you have hundreds of iridium bars to spare

[wooden oyster]

Sorry y'all. Console so I'm waiting. haven't looked at trinkets much.

[sacred river]

No worries

[plain flax]

Yeah I got a perfect Ice rod as a drop. The odds of that must not have been great.

[sacred river]

From personal experience you'll have better luck getting the perfect variants from drops than from reforging

Reforging is just that unreliable

[wooden oyster]

Saves bars. can you just roll 5 times and restart day? I'm assuming that's a thing?

[sacred river]

Idk if reforging is seeded

[plain flax]

Reforging does have an innate 5% chance of max stats.

For trinkets with two variables, reforging is statistically usually the only likely way to get it perfect.

[sacred river]

But if it's rng then rerolling will definitely help

[wooden oyster]

Ahh. Hmm.

[plain flax]

Its a nice addition, anyhow. One of the best things added in 1.6.

[sacred river]

Trinkets redefined combat tbh

Definitely one of the top tier additions

[plain flax]

Also my ice rod is psychic. Lets me ID which iridium nodes are crabs before I even get close 😄

It doesn't fire at actual ore.

And frogs can eat immune enemies in the skull cavern.

I dont really use my high level fairy but when I tried it, its almost god mode. You'll have to try to die.

Many of them are really sweet.

Parrot aint worth it mechanically by the time you get it. But it looks nice heh.

[magic kestrel]

What is the bookseller in 1.6 ?

[plain flax]

Shows up a couple times a month in town, sells some books with passive bonuses or skill gains. Trades the books you have but dont need for minor items.

[magic kestrel]

Is the books different one than the museum ones ?

[plain flax]

Yes, all the books from that trader are 1.6 additions.

They can also be found while playing.

[magic kestrel]

Ok thank you

[supple fossil]

Lots of skill books

[plain flax]

Theres even some that let you move faster.

Though not by much, I think.

[supple fossil]

I haven’t tried them yet 😅

[magic kestrel]

Doesn’t that just use coffee

[plain flax]

The books are permanent and stack with coffee.

But they're nowhere as fast as coffee.

[magic kestrel]

Ooo like skill lvl

[supple fossil]

Yeah, but also to be able to find more treasure chest for example

Eh no mystery boxes

[magic kestrel]

Ok, it’s just I haven’t played the 1.6 update yet

Ok Tysm both!

[cyan grotto]

I've done the whole of Spring on 1.6 from my 1.5 perfection save (w/ greenhouse) and haven't had the strong winds event to start the raccoon big tree quest line, have I gotten very unlucky to not get the 10% chance for 28 nights in a row?

[signal raft]

"wait why would using a napalm ring in a truffle farm be ba- wait wtf"

[dusty mason]

does giving a golden cracker to rabbits make them produce more rabbit's feet?

[drowsy steeple]

has anyone looked into the trout derby? can rainbow trouts be fished during rain or after 7 pm outside of cindersap forest because in the data I'm only seeing forest

if I'm correct the above shouldn't apply to town or mountain

@tough remnant may know

[hidden ore]

they will drop 2x of whatever they drop that day is how I understand it

[dusty mason]

wiki says "normal product", so idk

[tardy plume]

I think it's normal product would be 1 foot on the day it gives one, so double it's normal would be 2. I'd understand it like that.

[urban kiln]

can i buy wild winter seeds or its not possible

or is there anything i can grow in winter

[tardy plume]

I don't think "normal" is there to separate "normal" and "special" products, but "normal" and "double" amount

[hidden ore]

you can get powdermelon seeds from the raccoon's shop if you've unlocked that, they are the sole regular winter crop

you can also plant fiber seeds if you have that recipe

[urban kiln]

dont have that yet

[hidden ore]

lastly you can gather enough winter forage to craft winter seeds if you have that recipe

[tardy plume]

You can make wild winter seeds, and now there are powdermelons, but winter is kind of the down time for farming, overall.

[urban kiln]

ya i do

i have 3 of my skills max by the time i reached my first winter

just one more for foargeing

and fishing

[hidden ore]

so with the crops from that round you can make more seeds and replant, etc

that can carry you through winter, save some seeds for the following winter and sell off the rest of the crops I guess

[urban kiln]

alr

the lake fish is still as always right

the moutin lake i mean

like the large mouth bass

[urban kiln]

i just want some income as i do sc and stuff i have a greenhouse full of star fruits

[tardy plume]

You can fish in the winter, but there are season specific fish. I don't know what they all are off the top of my head.

Largemouth bass are all seasons, though.

[urban kiln]

alr

[dusty mason]

oo I see, I'll try get some crackers to give to my rabbits to test it out, ty!

[hidden ore]

winter has the tiger trout at the river, might be worth fishing up some of those

[tardy plume]

The wiki has a list of fish under "winter" to see what's not year round. Winter actually has quite a few specific fish that can't be found any other time.

[short silo]

could be worse

[harsh plover]

Is Rumpled Fruit Skin the best desert chef food?

[gray oriole]

For skull cavern yes

I like to start with shrimp + cherry syrup first for the fishing quest

[heady meadow]

I got my first golden animal cracker but I’m not sure which animals are best to use these on. Is there a recommendation or does it not really matter?

[gray oriole]

Golden chickens are the no duh answer

After them though, sheep if ur willing to use shepherd skill and swap to artisan when selling

Ostrich is the lazy/3rd place option

But fish ponds can be upgraded with crackers too

And there’s a bunch of neat stuff in fish pond drop table now

Stingrays and lava eels in particular

[heady meadow]

Ooh choices. I just started a new sea cucumber pond

[gray oriole]

Sea cucumber’s kinda bad

The rates for iridium ore suuuuuuuck

A crystalarium or two growing jade is probably the best investment if u want iridium ore

[heady meadow]

I’m ponding the yellow sea cucumbers for lucky lunch

[gray oriole]

Oh i misread

im kinda tempted to give that a try

[heady meadow]

Blue jazz flowers are needed for lucky lunches and I forgot to harvest mine at the end of spring, doh

[hidden ore]

I've got one of those in for that reason but I am still getting enough lucky lunches from golden mystery boxes that I haven't had to fish any up yet

[night fossil]

200 hours on spring year 4

cmon

[hidden ore]

unless you're in a rush, who cares how many hours you put in to get to some year or other. I mean, as long as you're having fun

[soft wasp]

Some people like to sleep through days if they don't have anything planned, I personally like to make the most out of every day cause I like to prioritize saving in-game time. It's just different playstyles

[hidden ore]

I go to bed by midnight almost every night, sometimes a little earlier (11-11:30) but I do use the full day

[harsh plover]

Still waiting for napalm ring to be turned off on the farm by default so I don't have to put it on and off 100 times

[heady meadow]

Because I maxed out my relationships before focusing more on farm stuff, now with 1.6 additions I can do all the farm layout things and planting using the new tools

The iridium scythe is a life-changer

[gray oriole]

I used to rush friendship but 1.6 has a lot of stuff that makes it a better idea to be patient

The upgrade book and stardrop tea mainly

[heady meadow]

I tried to balance friendship with farming. I found out better friendships helped me out while I worked on getting the 5 types of skills. Cool

[scenic fox]

Before I lose my sanity - does upgrading fairy trinket may change her level from 4 to 1?

[gray oriole]

It rerolls it

[scenic fox]

Or it only has a chance of upgrading it from 4 to 5

[gray oriole]

Current level on the trinket has zero effect on the anvil

[scenic fox]

I see, so i am leaving it at 4

[gray oriole]

Expect to spend 100-200 ingots on a lvl 5 fairy box so probably yea

[valid tapir]

||stardew will give discount when update in mobile?|| i hear from my friend. hopefully is true

[scenic fox]

I am more concerned about my luck than ingots,

[gray oriole]

Unless they have a source, sounds like something they made up

[tough remnant]

That sounds about right from memory? It's an extra entry in the locations that skips generic fish requirements

[drowsy steeple]

but it's only for "Forest"

in Location.xnb

[tough remnant]

Yeah

That's what I was saying, I only remember seeing that in forest

[drowsy steeple]

did you mean I'm right or the wiki is right?

[tough remnant]

I think you're right but I don't have time to check tonight

[drowsy steeple]

if you don't think there's any other way in the code to bypass those requirements (I've checked but not sure) I'll edit the wiki

[tough remnant]

That's the mechanism used for the trout and squid derbies

[drowsy steeple]

yeah if Locations.xnb is not all there is for those two then the logical conclusion is that squids can also be caught outside of the beach during the event

also do you know what's "Temp" in Locations.xnb? there you can catch lingcod, red mullet etc regardless of time

[urban kiln]

guys in what day the guy that look like krobus gonna show up

in the winter

[tough remnant]

Sounds like something that might have been used for testing to me

[heady meadow]

Perfect, my next game day is the trout derby and I need to catch squid to add the entry to Collections

[tough remnant]

Stuff from debugging or testing tools are often just left in the final release if they aren't going to cause issues for players

That's why animation cancelling exists

[drowsy steeple]

wiki should be correct now

I'm checking my website against the wiki, if anything looks weird it's me or the wiki

[silver magnet]

is there a mod where i can add more content into the game?

that isn't SVE or Ridgeside

[rich lake]

There's many

!vmv

[unkempt dome]

Visit Mount Vapius (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/9600) is an expansion mod that adds a new region in the mountains. Accessible by train, you'll enter the hamlet of Glimsap, with its tight-knit group of villagers, that holds a market twice a week. You'll get to explore new places, fight monsters, get new crops and forage, trade local coins for exclusive goods, and complete tasks to unlock special items, including machines, buildings, and animals.

To use this command, type !vmv.

And others

[soft wasp]

Iridium Scythe makes me consider going Ancient Fruit instead of Starfruit because now having to maintain an entire field would be super quick

[arctic crest]

AF is quicker than starfruit anyways cause you don't need to replant tho

esp with slitherlegs, movespeed isnt an issue

[soft wasp]

Right, but previously having to harvest the field would take half the day anyway so replanting wasn't much worse, but now you can harvest in like one in-game hour and then still use the day

[astral vine]

The pattern for festivals have changed?

I lost the egg festival to abigail and… I’m too lazy to reset.

[sacred river]

All festival layouts reset every even years

[astral vine]

well i suppose it’s a good thing so that it wouldn’t be the same over and over. Just caught me by surprise and yea I’ll just accept my loss.

[vale quartz]

whew...i thought for the first time in my stardew career i was gonna fail the extended family quest

but i managed to catch the last one at 1:40am woooo

[mental sail]

The fair layout makes so much more sense in y2, with the food near the attractions and the animals in a quieter spot

[silver magnet]

all my production facility in a small shed

[vale quartz]

i started fishing for Ms. Angler at literally 4pm and she just never appeared until literally the last minute

[vale quartz]

whats the item next to your hoe?

[silver magnet]

rabbits foot

[vale quartz]

ah

[robust spoke]

meanwhile son of crimsonfish never showed up for me

even though I fished for 3 days for him

[south atlas]

Come to #modded-stardew so we can corrupt you with all the mods hehe

[robust spoke]

think i might play sdve

[silver magnet]

gladly

[pine barn]

dang, still need to kill more pepper rex's

[tidal obsidian]

Is the deluxe worm bin worth it?

[soft wasp]

If you're gonna make a normal one you might as well make the deluxe one

The upgrade cost is so minor

However, the regular worm bin price still might be a bit much to ask imo

Still don't know what CA was thinking

[mental sail]

Much more worth it than buying deluxe from willy for sure

[vapid wind]

did anybody got the well read achievement cos im pretty sure I found and read all the lost books but i havent got it yet ?

[mental sail]

not the lost books, those in the purple star tab in the menu

[vapid wind]

ooooooooh

now I see why

my bad

[woven tusk]

I think it only cares about the books that give powers, despite it saying to read every book. So I'm not sure it checks for the EXP books or the Queen of Sauce cookbook

[floral geode]

ughhh I GUESS I'll launch the game smhhh

[dusty mason]

those prismatic shards are looking awfully shiny right now...

[vapid wind]

yeeees <33 !!

[astral vine]

So many calico eggs this dive xD

[harsh plover]

Hope you brought bombs

[astral vine]

Yea i have lots of megabombs xD

[open basin]

I like how the character is dressed for the occasion

[hidden ore]

how do you reach the items on the far right aganist the wall?

[silver magnet]

Automate mod

[hidden ore]

ah I see. I know nothing of mods myself, so didn't even realize that was a thing

[harsh plover]

Aren't half of the machines in the pic non-vanilla anyway

[mellow atlas]

maybe

maybe it's kinda wrong chat for that

[tough remnant]

Doesn't check skill books, I don't believe the game actually tracks if you've read those at all. Not sure about cookbook though

[mellow atlas]

i think it checks the books in the wallet...

i got an achievement after i got last book in my wallet which is one about the diamonds

[tough remnant]

That'd make the most sense

[hidden ore]

it's only the ones on that tab, yeah, for the achievement

[neat sentinel]

i wonder how much im going to get

[stark glade]

I wonder what this is

[neat sentinel]

245k

not bad

should i buy the galaxy hammer

[polar canyon]

anyone know what this is

[maiden fiber]

Raisins

You’re missing: radioactive ore, radioactive bar, mystic syrup, raisins, summer squash, broccoli (in order)

[polar canyon]

ah thanks

[maiden fiber]

You’re welcome!

[noble pivot]

My first QI quest. I'll be more prepared next time

[mellow atlas]

aged legen 2 roe...

[nimble turtle]

nice

[mellow atlas]

i hope you kept one

as a trophy

[noble pivot]

I haven't ^^

however I've made some legendII bait for next event and I got the fishing mastery

[tough remnant]

Hey @drowsy steeple , guess what

[drowsy steeple]

yo

[tender meteor]

Had a pretty good final day of the quest myself.

[tough remnant]

Turns out my fishing calculations were wrong

[drowsy steeple]

yeah

I was about to report when I'm finished

1. you didn't consider good bait
2. using target bait applies to all fish

[tender meteor]

I need more bug meat and midnight carp...

[tough remnant]

Fishing is actually cursed

The loop that I was looking at is seemingly redundant

[drowsy steeple]

which one?

[tough remnant]

the whole for ( i = 0; i < 2; i++) loop

Actually pointless

[drowsy steeple]

huh? that's for good bait

[tough remnant]

Sorta

But it does nothing

Because trash is part of the enumerable

And has 100% chance

[drowsy steeple]

i think the only usable part is this

{
    return firstNonTargetFish;
}```

oh wait, that's already covered by targetedBaitTries isn't it

[tough remnant]

Huh, does your decomp have actual variable names for this stuff?

Or did you refactor it yourself for easier reading?

[drowsy steeple]

wait, yours doesn't?

I even have comments

[tough remnant]

This is the bit you're talking about I think

                {
                    return item3;
                }```

[drowsy steeple]

mine says this lol

{
    return fish;
}
if (firstNonTargetFish == null)
{
    firstNonTargetFish = fish;
}
targetedBaitTries++;```

[tough remnant]

WTF why does yours have real names lol

[drowsy steeple]

so you were code diving blind all this time?

[woven tusk]

Need true names when you broker deals with the fae Junimos

[drowsy steeple]

dude I totally respect you code diving for that spreadsheet and other things I could never gain the courage to do that

[tough remnant]

I mean, I have names for class members, but nothing that's ephemeral like internal method variables

[drowsy steeple]

still

[green gyro]

do people actually use challenge bait on legendary fish

there was some reddit post about it but they seem to be modding

[tough remnant]

Yeah, for a challenge or for the sake of a god tier collection

[astral vine]

Are farmhouse renovations different with cabin renovations?

[green gyro]

some guy caught like 51 legends

that's gotta be modded right

[tough remnant]

Original Legend, yeah that's impossible... outside of shenanigans with panning pre-catch, but that doesn't count as catching which is why it works (and that only gives base quality)

[green gyro]

legend 2s

i mean

[tough remnant]

Nah, you could do that before

[astral vine]

The renovations are not free anymore?

[tough remnant]

Nope

[green gyro]

how

do you actually juts use challenge bait

[astral vine]

Hayz...

[tough remnant]

No limit on Legend 2 catches

[green gyro]

and get perfect legends?

[drowsy steeple]

so trash is rolled twice, if both are trash, you get trash. if you use normal bait, you only roll once

[green gyro]

they supposedly did it in a few days

[tough remnant]

You get first item if you use good bait, and first item will be random trash if you failed all fish

[green gyro]

i'm confused on how you catch over 50 iridium legends

[hidden ore]

50 in a few days seems, well, unlikely to me regardless of how good you are at the minigame

[drowsy steeple]

oh you're right it's the other way around. but the loop is not useless

[tough remnant]

I mean, 50 iridium legends in 3 days sounds pretty doable to me with Curiosity Lure + Quality Bobber

[river hearth]

Not sure if this belongs in here or #stardew-spoilers, but is there a consensus best enchantment for the pan?

[hidden ore]

that's 17 per day, and you have to probably perfect every catch without missing one, no?

[drowsy steeple]

this belongs here, pan cannot be enchanted previously i think

[tough remnant]

The loop only does anything if all fishables in the list fail... issue is that, at least as of 1.6, trash is one of the fishables in that list, and it has 100% catch rate

[green gyro]

they said challenge bait though

obviously quality bobber would make it pretty easy

[tough remnant]

Challenge Bait would help

[green gyro]

how would you not lose the legend though

[tough remnant]

But you can't reliably perfect catch Legend II without Blessing of Waters... and Blessing of Waters only works 3 times a day

[drowsy steeple]

oh ya i see what you mean. it loops twice but if you don't get targeted fish, only the second iteration matters

[hidden ore]

so if all three fish hooked first were the legend, you could get 9 per day. and the rest?

[drowsy steeple]

what about that using target bait applies to all fish? it doesn't even check if the targeted bait is the same name as the fish

[tough remnant]

Only first iteration matters actually

[green gyro]

would legend II bait help?

[drowsy steeple]

oh yep, the first non-target

[tough remnant]

Yes it does? !(fish.QualifiedItemId != baitTargetFish)

[drowsy steeple]

i mean the 1.66 part

[tough remnant]

Using your decomp because it has actual names lol

[drowsy steeple]

{
    chance *= 1.66f;
}```

[remote ridge]

Oh yea I am working on a collection checklist for all the items that aren't featured in catalogues or collections (as well as crafting stuff)

Would y'all be interested in a copy of that once I'm done

That includes clothing btw

[tough remnant]

usingTargetBait is a method parameter

[remote ridge]

I'm writing what you need to make that particular piece of clothing behind the items name

[tough remnant]

And it's set to spawn.ItemId == text when called

[tough remnant]

Yeah there's some dumb rare clothing from the Desert Festival lol

[drowsy steeple]

oh dang turns out I'm a smartass who cannot bother to scroll to the right

[remote ridge]

Btw there are a lot of shirts that are just called

"Shirt"

[drowsy steeple]

this line is too long
if ((spawn.CatchLimit <= -1 || !player.fishCaught.TryGetValue(fish.QualifiedItemId, out var values) || values[0] < spawn.CatchLimit) && GameLocation.CheckGenericFishRequirements(fish, allFishData, location, player, spawn, waterDepth, usingMagicBait, hasCuriosityLure, spawn.ItemId == baitTargetFish, isTutorialCatch))

[remote ridge]

So for those the checklist will also have their icon

[tough remnant]

It sure is lol

[tough remnant]

Yup, have fun tracking down the untailorable variants of "Shirt" lol

[drowsy steeple]

so what's this

[remote ridge]

Doesn't Sandy sell those

[tough remnant]

Yup

Thankfully MouseyPounds now actually indicates which shirts are untailorable from Sandy's shop

Makes that a lot easier

There's also the rare untailorable variant of Basic Pullover (M) which is only available from a single male outfit at the desert festival

[tough remnant]

Basically, my calculations were based on two independent rolls of fishing table

This is wrong

In fact, you have 3 dependent rolls

Which is waaaaaaaaay better

[drowsy steeple]

I knew something wasn't quite right with what I get in game
