YAAAAAAAAAY

[distant gulch]

[solid crane]

@green valley i just found my first one lol

whoa those green ghosts are v aggro

[distant gulch]

WHAT DO THEY DO

IF I BREAK EM

[tiny torrent]

It’s two trees back to back

[green valley]

Make sure you got ginger or ginger ale

[tiny torrent]

I think

[distant gulch]

oh

i just broke it

[woven tusk]

Cripes. Good kitty.

[woven tusk]

Nah, that's just one of the three green rain tree designs

[distant gulch]

OH MY GOD

[woven tusk]

Yeah, there's one of the others

[tiny torrent]

Looked taller than I remembered. Is the design different during green rain?

[distant gulch]

ooooooooooooooooo

[tiny torrent]

Guess not

[woven tusk]

I recommend playing the green rain day twice. Once to check on all the townies and see how they react, and then reset to play through again to collect as much moss/fiber/wood/Mossy Seeds as you can

[distant gulch]

ok so i gotta shake em before chopping them

i know they're all hidden except for a few people

they're scared or something LMFAO

[tiny torrent]

Demetrius lol

[woven tusk]

Demetrius is excited out there in full hazmat

Most of the town thinks it's the apocalypse or something

[drowsy steeple]

polyculture here we go

[woven tusk]

And then there's Leah, just standing outside in the open wondering where all the strange plants came from

[drowsy steeple]

leah's intrusive thoughts won

[green valley]

I think Elliott just wanted to drink

[woven tusk]

Leah wouldn't last long in a horror movie plot

[distant gulch]

LMFAOOOOOOOO

how does he know

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

[green valley]

Leah might to so chaotic that the big bad can't comprehend her next move

[distant gulch]

imma walk around and talk to people and redo it like you said

now that i know i don't actually have to cut those trees down

just shake em

i'll save a bunch of time to collect moss lol

[tiny torrent]

She’s the kind that MC will die trying to protect her and she’ll go onto pass the vaccine to a surviving colony as the MC’s dying wish in the epilogue

[distant gulch]

also

AINT NO WAY HAHAHAHA

[tiny torrent]

Fun to see someone experience green rain for the first time

But isn’t this Leah energy @woven tusk

[distant gulch]

I HAVE LEAH ENERGY???

[woven tusk]

That's the third tree type, a giant fiddlehead. You can chop it for fiddlehead ferns.
A mossy seed will randomly grow into either the fiddlehead or one of the two mutant tree types. You can see which one it'll be, by the seed that spawns in the ground... And pickaxe it to reclaim it and try again if you wanted a different kind.

[woven tusk]

Demetrius would end up being the scientist that the authorities ignore at the start of the disaster

[distant gulch]

YEA I LOOKED IT UP ON THE WIKI

I'M SORRY I'M JUST REALLY EXCITED

IT'S MY FIRST TIME

SO I'M JUST SHOWING EVERYONE EVERYTHING

[woven tusk]

It's so cool, right?

[distant gulch]

yes

YES

[woven tusk]

Haley acknowledges the rain but is completely unbothered by it. Hard to say whether she'd survive a horror movie or not... on the one hand, she's not taking this seriously. On the other, she's right

[distant gulch]

sam being like IS THIS ACID??? IS IT GONNA GO THROUGH THE ROOF AND SIZZLE US ALIVE??? I GOTTA PROTECT MY BROTHER

man CALM DOWN

[tiny torrent]

Haley’s just worried about her hair

[hushed hare]

I love her response to it when married: wake me up when there's a pink rain 🩷

[distant gulch]

haley looks so beautiful with the mod i'm using.. making me question everything rn

but emily

TIME TO RESET THE DAY

AND JUST SHAKE SOME TREES

[uneven lake]

Meanwhile the farmer:

[distant gulch]

ME

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[sacred river]

Robin's reaction on Y1 green rain is hilarous

[woven tusk]

It was even more hilarious for me.

She was standing outside in it, busy upgrading my house...

In my defense I hired her when the forecast said the next day would be sunny, and the work extended into the green rain

[distant gulch]

guys i'm ready

[distant gulch]

LOL ROBIN IS ON MY FARM TOO RN

[woven tusk]

Dressed for the occasion!

[distant gulch]

YES

[tiny torrent]

Your hair… nvm

[distant gulch]

THERES SO MANY

HELP

[molten turret]

it's foraging time

[distant gulch]

i passed out

i couldn't get everything

there's so many

i'd say it was a success for a first time

i got 2 of those books too

[knotty sage]

Oh my god you can eat the jelly too....

I was today years old, I only knew about the Mayonnaise lmao

[distant gulch]

oh?

[candid sequoia]

anda the pickles

[distant gulch]

wait so the trees just stay there after the event is done??? that's so many trees

[knotty sage]

Yeah they stay there. We get free wood🥳✨

[solid crane]

oomg i got a galaxy soul

[distant gulch]

omg i can't imagine in the sve forest.. i didn't even go there during the event

because of how huge it is

that's gonna be so much wood

[knotty sage]

Barone warns that the game won't have an end game any time soon so, I for one welcome the free wood

[solid crane]

i looove your farmer btw

so cute

[distant gulch]

THANK YOU

[solid crane]

also your UI is rly cute

[knotty sage]

Y'all, regular quality jelly gives you 100 energy, and 45 health....

I'm shook

[distant gulch]

excuse me

[distant gulch]

thank you it's the overflown flowery interface! i've made some personal edits to this mod as well

that's even more wood than usual

well it's only a few more trees but still

i ain't saying no

AND THE MOSS

[distant gulch]

what the frick

time to make all my salmonberries into jelly so i can just.. eat it

[knotty sage]

Not selling Jelly anymore if that's the stats omg. I mean, it does make sense considering we do eat mayo and jelly irl, but they don't give that much health lol

[distant gulch]

just hoard a bunch of salmonberries and blackberries, turn em into jelly

so you won't lose money since it's already something you don't really sell

but you will gain stats

imma test it out

[knotty sage]

I keep gold star mayo for eating bc that's like, 90 energy per bottle. Once I hit iridium quality, Skull Caverns is a piece of cake lol

Gain stats and God's strength I guess💀😂

[distant gulch]

LMFAOOOO

sell the mayo!! don't eat it!!

[knotty sage]

Barone really said, "And let the food lovers have thy mayo and jelly!

[distant gulch]

so much moss

[knotty sage]

I need the mayo for now bc I sell my eggs lol. My eggs do good too

[distant gulch]

help

[knotty sage]

And I fish, by day five of owning the fishing rod, I was already high up in my skills lol.

Also, keep the moss

[distant gulch]

i hecking love moss

i love fishing so i just made the good bait with it

[knotty sage]

Moss makes Moss Soup which provide so much energy and it's my new favorite thing

[distant gulch]

but i have over 200 now

[knotty sage]

I'm actually organizing my layout for my farm and the crops, and I want a whole section of Pumpkins so I can store em

Use the good quality stuff for the center and for pumpkin soup

[distant gulch]

help i can't stop

there's too much moss

i have to get it all

[knotty sage]

No get it, bc I think this event only happens once during the summer~

[distant gulch]

i mean even before that i'd get a decent amount of moss

but with the event

that's just insane

[knotty sage]

Hopefully there's gonna be updates with more Moss crafted items

Hell probably have a few new stuff in new updates since moss is pretty big now

Especially since Moss Soup gives a lot of health and energy~

[distant gulch]

well damn that's a lot of moss for one day

[sacred river]

You need at least 333 for the statue of blessings

Which is by far its best use

[distant gulch]

✨ moss ✨

[sacred river]

Gg

[distant gulch]

ooo it's trout derby today!!

i feel right at home

[molten turret]

more like trout durrby

[distant gulch]

got 3 golden tags so far

and some deluxe bait

[hazy junco]

I'm gonna try to fish for the slimejack ,what trinket should I use to avoid getting mauled by bugs?

[hazy junco]

funny because it's also trout derby time for me but I'm on Y3

ftr I do not have a frog egg currently, I do have a quiver and ice rod

[distant gulch]

ooo i don't know what these are yet

let me look it up

[knotty sage]

TWO ANCIENT SEEDS IN MY 1.6+ PLAYTHROUGH FIRST YEAR😭💙

[hazy junco]

it's a feature added in 1.6

[distant gulch]

7 golden tags so far

[tiny torrent]

The tactic is to stay in the bottom left of map

And it doesn’t take long at all so don’t have to overthink too much

[hazy junco]

I'll probably use ice rod then

[tiny torrent]

Sounds good too

You’ll get 1 flying bug in the bottom left

Ice Rod will handle that ez

[distant gulch]

ANOTHER ONE LET'S GO

can you get more than one of the same rewards at the trout derby?

or you get one of each?

[knotty sage]

I'm still shook. Two ancient seeds on the 6th day of Summer

[distant gulch]

i got all of these

so i found this "The first prize the player receives will always be 1 Tent Kit. Afterwards, the player can get one of 10 possible prizes listed below. The first of these prizes is given at random, with the next prize guaranteed to be the one listed next on this list, with 1 Bucket Hat rewarded after 3 Omni Geodes. After receiving all 10 listed prizes, the player will earn the prizes again in the same order."

[latent warren]

will they ever rework the tapper profession fr?

mystic syrup still isn't enough to make it a worth option

mystic syrup is a huge money maker, but tapper still doesn't seem to make much difference for it

only would give 1 more syrup worth of profit for each 4 syrups sold

that sounds like a huge deal but is it really worth compared to the extra wood, forageable and profit capabilities and artifact spot finding capacibilities of the other skills??

and there should still be a lot of more worth money making options like wine and farm animals

so in conclusion tapper sucks and they should rework it entirely

maybe make tappers faster instead

or have a chance to produce double

[tiny torrent]

Even after considering Heavy Tappers?

[latent warren]

so produce double it is

oh ye also about mystic syrup

we can use them to make treasure totems instead

ooor we can save a lot of syrup then change to the profession and sell em all then change again

[sacred river]

Mystic syrup is a great moneymaker and the tapper profession doesn't need reworking

Just saying, but not every moneymaker in the game needs to be at the same level as wine

[night stone]

hey all I have a question about 1.6?

mind if I ask it?

[sacred river]

Sure

[night stone]

the ocean jelly thing... is it better to catch if I had no bait?

[sacred river]

Why do you think so

Bait gives you better chances to hook something

That includes the jellies

[night stone]

Oh ok

[drowsy steeple]

experiment with this https://brokencygnus.github.io/stardew-fishing-calc/home

[night stone]

Oh thanks

[woven tusk]

I am not sure this is true. But it does halve the time until you get a bite, meaning you get twice as many chances in the limited time you have

[latent warren]

its still a stupid profession

it's only worth for mystic syrup

no one on their right mind is gonna sell the other 3 syrups

[sacred river]

We're lucky that it even has a use now

[drowsy steeple]

it's true tho, bait gives you better chances to hook something per tick

[latent warren]

also the only way to obtain moss is from trees, right?

[drowsy steeple]

green rain fiber too

[latent warren]

man if only moss on rocks were a thing

[drowsy steeple]

ooh lichen nodes sound fun

[latent warren]

moss is prob the only resource we can get only in the valley outside winter

and the only way to mass produce it is through an event that really feels like a rare easter egg event but for some reason it's something granted every year

||you'll regret crafting mushroom logs or anything that requires it once you unlock the farmer mastery||

[drowsy steeple]

it should be at least grindable, like with batteries and iridium bats

fiber can be grind at floor 80 asw

hardwood can be grind in the dangerous mines

[eager arch]

I think you can farm moss using rare trees near a tree farm

[latent warren]

the order of when i think each mastery should be unlocked:
1/2-foraging or farmer
3-mining
4-fishing
5-combat

[eager arch]

That's the best way of farming moss I can think of

[latent warren]

yeah can we pls get minecraft lush cave biome?

[latent warren]

yeah i saw in the wiki

[eager arch]

Can mahogany trees grow moss?

[latent warren]

idk prob

[eager arch]

I don't think they can

[latent warren]

i'm sure mystic and fruit trees can't

then about mahogamy and fern i'm not sure

also mushroom

[drowsy steeple]

so it increases the chance from 10% to 15%, 20% to 25% if raining. that's not reliable imo

[eager arch]

The next thing you can do is nothing

[latent warren]

also would be cool if there were a very low chance for a mystic tree to have a face

[drowsy steeple]

the new update makes speed gro the absolute worst thing you can craft

[latent warren]

why?

it's the best fertilizer

[drowsy steeple]

1 moss per fertilizer?

[drowsy steeple]

I mean just buy DSG from sandy

[latent warren]

bro you only need 1 statue

[drowsy steeple]

I spend my moss mostly on blue grass

[latent warren]

laughs in meadow farm

[drowsy steeple]

and I don't even use mushroom logs, a lot of people do

[latent warren]

not a good farm type though

[trim plover]

What’s the best ||mastery||

[drowsy steeple]

animals are killer mid to late game so meadow is pretty good

[latent warren]

there isn't a single area with enough farming space for a full junimo hutch range

[latent warren]

either foraging or farm

[drowsy steeple]

farm on GI

animals on main farm

[latent warren]

cuz of golden boxes, artifact spots or golden animal crackers

[drowsy steeple]

it depends on how you play, but mining imo

also no need to spoiler here

[latent warren]

the other masteries are all about their own skills

[tiny torrent]

IMO

[trim plover]

Oh ok it’s a habit to spoiler 😂😂😂

[latent warren]

they really need to add more trinkets fr

it's just 5 and they're very mid

[drowsy steeple]

why is advanced rod tier 2 it's not that good

[latent warren]

some could also have uses outside combat too

oh ye also a tip

[drowsy steeple]

I'd rank anvil and mini forge T4

[latent warren]

avoid using as many moss as you can

[latent warren]

combat is the worst mastery

[drowsy steeple]

imo fishing

[latent warren]

treasures

[trim plover]

I think I’m confused cause I just unlocked the mastery cave but I can’t choose a mastery thing? I gotta do sum else first?

[latent warren]

also fishes are a very good money maker now

[tiny torrent]

I ranked it high for the ability to smoke Qi fishes for money bottleneck

[drowsy steeple]

by the time you unlock mastery fishing already sucked for a long time

[drowsy steeple]

I'd think people who can consistently fish legend II are skilled enough to do SC deep dives

[latent warren]

but yeah i agree with the fertilizers point

speed-gro is the best fertilizer and it's just because it's the most relevant one

still not that much since multi-harvest crops still exist

[tiny torrent]

That is true. I will rethink

[drowsy steeple]

speed-gro like default speed-gro? I never use it

[latent warren]

quality doesn't matter if you're turning them into artisan goods

[latent warren]

any

[sacred river]

Fishing is the worst mastery tbh

[latent warren]

how isn't combat worse?

[sacred river]

Because all trinkets are useful

[trim plover]

How do I use the mastery cave? 🧍🏽‍♀️

[latent warren]

not much

they make very little difference

[candid sequoia]

get all skills to 10 first

[patent bane]

nah trinkets a can be great imo

[trim plover]

I have all my skills and I’m in the cave but I can’t choose anything! Do I have to like do something else first?

[latent warren]

explain yourself

[tiny torrent]

Anvil is minimum T3 because of crafting achievement. Mini Forge does help a lot especially if volcano forge is a bottleneck.

[patent bane]

I have a level 5 fairy box and had a skull cavern dove the other day where I only healed twice

[latent warren]

just eat?

also fairy healing is slow

[drowsy steeple]

ok sure T3, but you can walk to caldera

[patent bane]

and lvl 4 parrot + monster musk + farming dust sprites can make some decent money, I’ve made like 5k per floor which isn’t a ton but is nice passive income and it’s fun

[sacred river]

You need to do a lot of damage to make it effective

[drowsy steeple]

fairy does next to nothing considering food has no cooldown

[latent warren]

parrot is a very nothing money maker

[latent warren]

isn't there lvl 5 parrot?

[patent bane]

fairy is good for the no food skull cavern quest though!

[sacred river]

No

[patent bane]

I don’t think so?

[[Trinkets]]

[formal gorge]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Trinkets

[latent warren]

wait hwat

[sacred river]

A good dust sprite spree can net you 30k a day lmao

[patent bane]

I’ve made more than that, probably closer to 50k

which isn’t a ton late game but it’s nice to vary gameplay a bit!

[drowsy steeple]

wait I might try parrot in double dangerous mines with musk

[sacred river]

There's also the ice rod
Makes killing serpents and ghosts monumentally easier

[drowsy steeple]

that's like 8k gold per floor

[patent bane]

do it!!

[latent warren]

fishing mastery gives a rod that allows two bobbers, makes you able to get golden treasures with better loot, and even if i find the challenge bait worthless in most cases it's still great for easy fish like rainbow trout during the trout season

[patent bane]

it’s very fun imo

[latent warren]

and what does combat gives? some insignificant bonuses to combat

so yeah don't commit the same mistake as me of unlocking combat first

wait so either foraging, farming or mining is better as the 1st skill unlocked

[sacred river]

1. Two bobbers are pointless by that point unless you haven't gotten the legendary fish yet

2. Golden chests are also a bit worthless; golden mystery boxes outclass them

3. Trout derby rewards are also worthless

[drowsy steeple]

two bobbers aren't that good, golden treasure chests are meh, and challenge bait is only worthwhile for the fish you probably can't perfect catch

[sacred river]

And challenge bait is also worthless

There's no redemption to that

[latent warren]

you can also stack the same bobber

[tiny torrent]

Challenge bait is achievement
From crafting

[drowsy steeple]

the only thing I get from fishing is 7% chance for stardrop tea

[sacred river]

Ok and

My point still applies

If you want to speedrun getting that fishing Stardrop then sure

[latent warren]

ok i understand all of that but still less worthless than trinkets

i love giving trinkets to my friends and family

also that money making thing with dust sprites still seems pretty late game

considering that it requires faerie dust and monster musk everytime

[steady narwhal]

No way...

[tiny torrent]

Literally can’t die with fairy box equipped
Personally trinket changed my gameplay if only for the fact I don’t bring cheese anymore

[sacred river]

Fight me chimpunk

[steady narwhal]

Thinking about challenging myself with that

[latent warren]

not to mention that we would have to max the parrot trinket, which would require either rng or iridium baars

[steady narwhal]

You would be buried very deep in SC

[sacred river]

Warp totem

[latent warren]

facts

[steady narwhal]

I've disabled that

[latent warren]

it's straight up unusable on most fishes

[sacred river]

Save and exit

[steady narwhal]

Also disabled

[latent warren]

however...

[sacred river]

Turning off my computer

[latent warren]

if you happen to have the farm statue

[steady narwhal]

Also goodbye for your limbs

[latent warren]

and get the fishing blessing...

[drowsy steeple]

challenge bait should be a challenge bobber so it doesn't compete with targeted

[latent warren]

challenge bait also exposes a problem that already existed but it's much worse with the bait

[drowsy steeple]

I mean it'd be nice to challenge bait catfish or sturgeon, but in that case targeted is way better

[tiny torrent]

Fishing rod should double bait and double lure?

[sacred river]

I think challenge bait is intended to be bait so you can attach 2 cork bobbers for max efficiency

[latent warren]

treasures

most of the time they spawn completely away from the bobber

[drowsy steeple]

challenge bobber + cork + deluxe bait?

[latent warren]

and specially when you're fishing an easy fish that barely moves you'll have to sacrifice perfection or a fish to get the treasure

very stupid for challenge bobber to just lose the fish when we lose it 3 times

it could just remain with 1 fish, that would still make it like the most basic bait

this just makes the best endgame bait straight up unusable for the most challenging fish

[sacred river]

I mean it's in the name

"Challenge"

You're literally challenging yourself just using it

[latent warren]

and also it should have a delay before losing another fish, so we won't end up losing it all depending on harsh movements

[chilly bloom]

That’s the whole point of the sacrifice if using it lmao

[latent warren]

it's just way too much of a challenge

also once again not a challenge, but straight up impossible to use on harder fishes

[sacred river]

I think CA added it that way because by that point you should be a god at fishing or something

[chilly bloom]

Skill issue and that’s largely the point

It’s supposed to be skill based

[latent warren]

and once once again if we didn't lose the last fish it would still make it as good as the most basic bait if we failed the challenge in question

[chilly bloom]

Yes…. That’s the point of balancing

[drowsy steeple]

then there's no stakes other than the crafting ingredients

[chilly bloom]

And time

[sacred river]

Yeah challenge bait is largely skill based

If you aren't confident or skillful enough yet, just don't use it

Deluxe bait or wild bait are there

[chilly bloom]

The other bait that gives more fish is wild bait at only a 20% extra chance, it has to balance around that

[crude rover]

Although challenge bait is also useful for fishing quests. 🤷‍♀️

[violet creek]

i mean. i saw a thing where someone managed to perfect the legend with it and got 3 legends. so uh
i think its fine lol

[latent warren]

"skill issue"
(insert a gif of some insane bullet hell boss fight modded to be completely impossible with the caption: "skill issue")

jesus fkin christ dude fr what kind of superhuman skills are your standarts?!

[candid sequoia]

messy technique

[latent warren]

no human being can perfect any of these fishes that makes completely random sudden unpredictable moves

try using challenge bait on squidfest

[violet creek]

im saying that its fully possible to use even on legendary fish. if you're struggling its not the fault of the bait specifically meant for challenging yourself and skills

[candid sequoia]

insufficient expertise

[latent warren]

umm sir even if you maximize your fishing bar it still only takes half of it

that's still plenty of space for the fish to TELEPORT to

[violet creek]

am i good enough to manage the perfect legend? hell no. are there people who are? yes.

[candid sequoia]

with the water blessing it’s not even hard

[drowsy steeple]

sicarious did all perfect catches alright

[latent warren]

is it the statue blessing that makes fishes easier to catch?

[drowsy steeple]

I mean there's no reason to use challenge bait on octopus

[candid sequoia]

yep

[crude rover]

I thought I was catching carp instead of laval eel at the forge because I forgot that one was active.

[latent warren]

not even octopus

[violet creek]

anyways its called challenge bait for a reason. its not meant to make things easier, its meant to reward you for succeeding at the self-imposed challenge

[latent warren]

any fish that can just make any sudden moves

[drowsy steeple]

that's why in 1.6 CA made it possible to make your bar comically large

[latent warren]

oh ye also worst thing about challenge bait

costs bone fragments and moss

for a bait that can't even catch the actually profitable fishes

[candid sequoia]

imagine trading a prismatic shard for tackle that makes your fishing bar take up 100%

[crude rover]

To be honest: I really appreciate the possibility to use 2 cork bobber as I've trouble with several of the harder fish to begin with. 🤷‍♀️

[latent warren]

wait we can do that?

[crude rover]

Where can I trade?

[violet creek]

after a point those are pretty easy to get, and again it can catch profitable fish

[crude rover]

@latent warren No we can't.

[drowsy steeple]

prismatics aren't even rare

[candid sequoia]

no, it was just a random idea

[latent warren]

so which is the max fishing bar size again?

[latent warren]

yeah i'm somehow getting plenty lol

[candid sequoia]

yeah i get one every day from statue of true perfection

[latent warren]

oh ye also

max fishing bar size requires Deluxe bait

would be cool if we were able to mix baits

[candid sequoia]

it would have durability of course

[chilly bloom]

First off, people have, I’ve perfect caught all but a few fish, in 1.6 it’s a hell of a lot easier, more fishing buffs, the statue fishing buff, advanced rod.

Second, the bait isn’t necessarily meant to be used on the hardest of fish, moreso for fishing quests and catching medium level ones. Otherwise why would it give a max of 3 vs the average <1.2 wild bait gives.

Third, having no downside would make it overpowered, it’s already strong as it is, there has to be some semblance of balance, just because something comes later doesn’t mean it should be so much better than anything that comes before it

[latent warren]

even the legends?

also good luck getting the statue buff out of all the completely random buffs it can give each day

[crude rover]

2.5 of those "areas" with 2 cork bobbers and deluxe bait.

[latent warren]

the statue buff is busted since it makes even lava eels as easy as sunfishes, but you have to pray to get it each day

[crude rover]

And laval eel are basically the only ones you can catch reliable as there are no other fishes where you get lava eel.

[violet creek]

i have seen a clip of someone getting 3 legends with the challenge bait. And I mean The Legend.

[latent warren]

no downsides? it's already a late game bait, that costs annoying resources, and we can lose all fish on the slightest unpredictable movement the fishes make, all that would do is make it at least usable as a regular bait for harder fish

[woven tusk]

The mouseypounds predictor can identify which ones spawn on which days

[crude rover]

Or does witches pond only has void salmon? Than those would be technically the other ones.

[violet creek]

https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/1cv26zg/so_i_caught_the_legend_with_the_new_bait_and_um/

heres a person who managed it.

[woven tusk]

...And yeah, I managed to triplecatch the Legend with that info

[latent warren]

did they record?

oh tye did

[violet creek]

ye they filmed it
and also shared their setup to get the bar that size with challenge bait

[crude rover]

Their legend was nicer than mine. 😅

[latent warren]

yeah seems like they really got blessed with the rng

[woven tusk]

They didn't even use the blessing of waters

[latent warren]

also who tf doesn't catch all the legendary fishes before getting mastery

[woven tusk]

As for the materials... moss isn't that hard to get once you have a tapper farm and weave some mossy seeds into it. Bone fragments aren't hard to get once you can access the GI dig site

[crude rover]

The main problem with the legends in my opinion: You can be lucky to get the sleepy ones or unlucky and get the nasty ones. 🤷‍♀️

[latent warren]

sleepy ones?

more like mildly tired ones

[drowsy steeple]

me because it's impossible to catch angler and glacierfish before fall

[woven tusk]

Apparently if the Legend wants to leap somewhere else on the fishing bar, but due to its insane hyperactivity chooses somewhere outside the bar, it simply doesn't move. Which can cause it to "sleep" if it happens multiple times in a row

[violet creek]

also random question but is it possible for it to rain in the valley during the desert festival since its a passive one

[woven tusk]

Yes

[latent warren]

[woven tusk]

I used a rain totem to get a better statue blessing for one of the days

It worked

[latent warren]

wtf you doing to get mastery before the 1st fall?!

[latent warren]

wait what?

[woven tusk]

Somehow still got the Spring 17 rainbow, in the rain, at just about midnight

[woven tusk]

What?

[crude rover]

They've minmax attached to their name.

[drowsy steeple]

the only bottleneck is foraging 10, really

[woven tusk]

Like I said, the Mouseypounds applet can predict which statue blessing happens on which day

[violet creek]

ok so then also add on one of chef mans +3 fishing buff foods on top of the rest since those actually stack with other things

[woven tusk]

Butterfly can't happen on rainy days, so there's two possible blessings each day: rainy and not-rainy

[latent warren]

wdym by bottleneck?

[drowsy steeple]

ooooh that's why

[drowsy steeple]

limiting factor

[latent warren]

bro can speedrun the game before the 1st fall and is a mod developer

[woven tusk]

The not-rainy blessing for that day was not useful, so I used a rain totem on the day before it to get the rainy one instead (Fangs)

[latent warren]

yet i can't even put my eyes on the modding guide before getting buried in the cosmic horrors of my mind

[drowsy steeple]

I only made the fishing calculator

they let me have the role for that

[latent warren]

still a huge achievement

[drowsy steeple]

and I'm currently debugging it bc turns out targeted bait messes up fishing festivals

[woven tusk]

Would've been the butterfly but I wanted Fangs, so I used a rain totem on the 16th to get the rainy blessing on the 17th

[tiny torrent]

What’s comically large in 1.6? Cork bobber x 2 + deluxe bait?

[drowsy steeple]

if only sunny totem existed

[latent warren]

i also have an idea to buff the endgame speed-gro fertilizer

[drowsy steeple]

fishing level 19 too

[crude rover]

To be fair: Fishing 10 early on isn't that hard if you do a lot of fishing in the first week.

[woven tusk]

Dx bait isn't an option for this, as it has to be Challenge. But fishing buffs can do it

[latent warren]

since the endgame quality fertilizer allows iridium quality crops would be cool if the other endgame fertilizer also had unique effects

so speed-gro could increase the chance for giant crops

[drowsy steeple]

I got fishing lv 10 like day 8 in 1.6? It's easier now

[latent warren]

and maybe even make more giant crops possible

[woven tusk]

I really don't like the way giant crops work in this game, after having played Rune Factory 4 after it and seeing how giants worked there

[latent warren]

like parsnip and starfruit

[latent warren]

i also have an idea for them, but i think i should start keeping my future modding ideas to myself

[drowsy steeple]

starfruit should be a tree why is banana a tree and starfruit isn't

starfruits are more of a tree than bananas are

bananas are comically huge herbs

[latent warren]

why are starfruits chopped with a hole in the middle?

[drowsy steeple]

chopped?

[latent warren]

sliced imean

[crude rover]

I only fish for like 3 days early on and then only occasionally. So I'll have it way later, but at 10 in summer for "Mr. I should be called a legend"-Octopus. 🤷‍♀️

[drowsy steeple]

still don't get what you mean

[woven tusk]

In RF4, every single crop can become giant
Giant is not RNG, it's based on a soil stat that you can inflate via soil additives (which stack but if you spam them too much, the soil starts dying)
Giant regrowable crops stay giant and keep regrowing as giant

[latent warren]

y

[drowsy steeple]

octopus and scorpion fish are honorary legends lol

[drowsy steeple]

you mean like the seed pits?

[woven tusk]

Yeah, the starfruits in this game are weirdly pre-sliced. But I don't think they have holes in them, those dots're just seeds

[crude rover]

But the scorpion is way less picky about "time of the day".

[latent warren]

so in reality max bobber size without deluxe bait is still less than half of the fishing bar

you'll be praying that the fish don't just teleport to the other side of the bar

[woven tusk]

Does that include the +3 levels from the desert fest chef...?

[tiny torrent]

Fishing level 19 is Seafoam Pudding w Qi (+5), Desert Fest food (+3) +???

[latent warren]

the whole fruit looks llike that

[drowsy steeple]

master rod

[violet creek]

ok so in 1.6 in theory for a massive fishing bar you can combine:
-2 cork bobbers
-master enchant on your rod
-qi seasoned seafoam pudding

• waters blessing
• deluxe bait if not deciding to use challenge
• and during the desert festival you can add on one of the +3 fishing foods the chef makes, as those will stack with the pudding as an optional

[woven tusk]

Rod enchant

[latent warren]

so they're already far from accurate in the game

[tiny torrent]

Ok thanks!

[crude rover]

Yes.

[drowsy steeple]

oh ya about that ig it's to make it clear for people who've never seen a starfruit irl

[violet creek]

dont know why half the list became real bullet points but thats irrelevant

[tiny torrent]

Anyone has a pic of how big this is?

[violet creek]

i dont but eventually im gonna try it because im curious lol

[tiny torrent]

Oh ok pls tag me lol

[woven tusk]

Bar Size

The green rectangle increases in size with higher fishing skill level. The total number of pixels of the entire rectangle is 568. At Fishing level 0, the bar size has a length of 96 pixels. This is increased by 8 pixels for every increase in fishing level, so that at level 10, the bar size has a length of 176 pixels. The bar size can be further increased by using either the Cork Bobber or Deluxe Bait or increasing the fishing level past level 10 by using an enchant at the Forge or with food buffs. The maximum possible bar size is therefore 308 pixels, which can be achieved using the Advanced Iridium Rod and having level 10 fishing, using 2 cork bobbers, using deluxe bait, using the Master Enchant at the Forge, and eating Seafoam Pudding with Qi Seasoning and a dish with the Shrimp ingredient from the Chef at the Desert Festival. Outside of the Desert Festival, the maximum possible bar size is 284 pixels, exactly half of the total number of pixels of the rectangle.

So with the chef, dropping the Dx Bait does not drop you below half the bar

Without the chef, it does.

[sage whale]

ooo interesting

[tiny torrent]

That’s like 55% of the bar…

[woven tusk]

(Dx Bait is +12 pixels, or a level and a half. Cork bobber is 24 pixels, or 3 levels worth)

[latent warren]

ok so seems like

[tiny torrent]

Interesting project, I might as well try

[latent warren]

that deluxe bait is even more worth than anything the combat mastery can offer than i thought

[crude rover]

While I love my ice rod: I agree that combat mastery isn't that convincing.

[violet creek]

frog

[latent warren]

frog is one of the worst

the enemies it kills drop no loot

[violet creek]

its also an insta-kill. thats the trade off

however the best use is frog tank

[latent warren]

ok but what crature would you need to instakill?

[latent warren]

yeah it's cool but nothing useful

also it's a loved gift by sebastian

but you could just use frozen tears or sashimi instead

[crude rover]

Or iridium void eggs. 🤷‍♀️

[latent warren]

wait he loves that?

[violet creek]

you cannot convince me that frog tank and frog friend hold no value >:(
[i do know theres better trinkets lol but frog frien]

yeah seb normally hates eggs but he loves void eggs

[latent warren]

they hold value but no more than what the other masteries can give

money can't buy happiness

but it can buy everything that gives happiness

[crude rover]

Yes. But if you've no void chickens frozen tears aren't hard to find too. 🤷‍♀️

[violet creek]

money cant buy me happiness
but frog friend brings me joy

[latent warren]

or you can just give him raw sliced fish...

[violet creek]

anyways i normally bring the other trinkets for actual combat, i just use the frog as a pet when wandering around lol

[crude rover]

I mean the trinkets are nice to have and the animal versions look cute. But when ranking benefits from mastery they're unfortunatly at the bottom of the list.

[latent warren]

also all the combat mastery items are only really usable in endgame

[crude rover]

I stay away from crafting sashimi since there might have been an "accident" in one of my old saves.

[latent warren]

at this point you'd already have all masteries unlocked

[latent warren]

nobody told you to leave legendary fish in the fridge

[violet creek]

sashimi works well but is also locked behind linus so in theory you might find the tears first

[crude rover]

It wasn't in the fridge.

[latent warren]

but is still sucks for special fishes like sea cucumbers for lucky dip

[latent warren]

oh right inventory

next time watch your legendary price better then

oh ye

you can also just reset the day

[crude rover]

Since then I make sashimi exactly once and am very paranoid about tripple checking my inventory that there's only a carp in there.

[latent warren]

i really think legendaries fishes don't have to be only able to be catched once

[violet creek]

i usually try to get void chickens as soon as possible so i usually just have void eggs in abundance by the time i start really focusing on friendship

[latent warren]

they could still have a long cooldown but they really don't feel that special anymore with the qi's quest

also shame there were no legendary fishes for ginger island

[violet creek]

i mean its the point of those original ones

[crude rover]

If you notice it that day you could do that. But I noticed quite some time later when I wanted to put them in a fish tank. 🤦‍♀️

[latent warren]

also we can only fish the qi's legendary fishes while the quest is active, right?

[violet creek]

it would have been cool to have a legend on ginger island... maybe some cool lava based fish in the caldera
like how the legend itself is very similar to the largemouth it could be somewhat similar to lava eels

[crude rover]

Yes.

If you want multiple of them you just have to make sure not to catch the fifth.

[latent warren]

magma shark

also are the floor 100 and top of volcano pools really actual magma?

or still water?

[violet creek]

lava, the lava eel's description also says its somehow surviving in lava

[latent warren]

so how's the lava from the volcano dungeon different?

[woven tusk]

Man is going on about The Legend when I went and caught The Trilogy

[latent warren]

also we can fish trash in the floor 100 lake

[violet creek]

who knows how we're able to even get the bobber and bait in there without it melting lmao

joja co: somehow creating lava proof trash and flooding the mines with it

[woven tusk]

Well, Stardew is now somehow connected to Terraria, so I guess we have Hotline Fishing Pole technology

[drowsy steeple]

The Fish, The Myth, The Legend

[latent warren]

imagine if they added fishable lakes in the dungeons so we'd had to bring fishing rods along

not just on the floors of the mine where we can easily go through an elevator

[drowsy steeple]

that'd be annoying tbh

[violet creek]

i mean it is possible that the mines area is red hot water while the caldera itself is actual lava- lava eels are located in both locations

[latent warren]

but still very cool

[drowsy steeple]

that's why you can fish in the caldera and only the caldera

because there's a shortcut there

regarding actual unique caldera fish, that'd be interesting

[latent warren]

also anyone wanna argue about which is the best farm?

[violet creek]

a unique legendary fish in there would be cool, but also having like actual other fish that vibe in the lava would be neat

[tiny torrent]

Suggest the arowana for caldera fish

[latent warren]

magma shark

[drowsy steeple]

best farm for earlygame is riverland, best farm for lategame is beach

[drowsy steeple]

a relative used to have one of these, they're crazy expensive

[latent warren]

i think beach is the best farm overall, or my favorite at least

only farm with mangrove trees

and even has an unique furniture

[drowsy steeple]

absolutely not, the sprinkler issue is only resolved late game

[tiny torrent]

You mean the boat painting

[latent warren]

the only downside is sprinklers, but there's a spot that allows sprinklers which is also all you need

and meadows is definitely icky

[violet creek]

imagine a horseshoe crab as a unique legendary crab pot fish somehow

[latent warren]

i don't think there's a single spot where you can fully utilize a junimo hut's range

trust me i tried finding it

[latent warren]

crab pot buff pls

baits should affect them, maybe

[woven tusk]

They do

[latent warren]

how?

[violet creek]

meadowland has become one of my new favorites bc of how different it is

[woven tusk]

Dx Bait makes the quality silver, and reduces trash rate

[latent warren]

oh cool

and what about the others?

[woven tusk]

No difference to my knowledge

[latent warren]

yeah i think dx bait difference is enough

[violet creek]

wild bait and targetted bait also reduce trash

[latent warren]

then the crab professions just have to be able to compete with the op fishing ones

[woven tusk]

Eh, they don't have to

[drowsy steeple]

wait can you target lobsters

[crude rover]

You can target crab pot items?

[woven tusk]

It's okay for one skilltree branch to be the best in solo. Mariner is super practical in co-op for its high Lobster rate

[latent warren]

angler affects all fishes, plus fish smoker is a thing now

[violet creek]

target bait also works the same as it would on a fishing rod, as long as its an appropriate crab pot fish bait

so yes you can target lobsters

[latent warren]

what's up with lobsters though?

[woven tusk]

It's a game about community, so it makes sense for some skills to only be desirable in co-op

[woven tusk]

Really easy bisque.

[crude rover]

Damn. I'm low on crab cakes and didn't know that.

[latent warren]

just go for pudding

[violet creek]

but yeah the only baits with an effect on crab pots is targeted [crab pot specific targets], wild, and deluxe

the others wont do anything unique and just work like normal bait

[woven tusk]

Mariner removes trash catches but also redistributes the catch ratio to exactly balanced. Lobsters are normally rare but become the same commonness as every other saltwater catch

[violet creek]

do not put your magic or challenge bait in the crab pots

[outer sleet]

my problem with the crab pot tree isnt so much the level 10 skills its that Trapper itself is weak

[latent warren]

removing trash may also be a downside

[woven tusk]

It can be, though I kinda hate counting on trash for resources

Due to how unpredictable it is

[latent warren]

and is there any point on having the wilderness farm?

[woven tusk]

It's less ugly than the standard farm, which has value when you have to look at your farm every day
The central pond is conveniently located
There is more plantable land than most other maps

Iridium golems are also exclusive to it

[latent warren]

like if iridium weren't easy enough to get already

[violet creek]

me spending a day training rod fishing the lava eel level for trash whenever i need it

[woven tusk]

Though they spawn at Combat 9+ and freaking Serpents start showing up at Combat 10...

[latent warren]

i find combat to be the hardest skill to maximize

[woven tusk]

Couldn't you just shortcast in the caldera to guarantee trash but with bait so you hook it twice as fast?

[latent warren]

normally i only get to it on skull cavern

[outer sleet]

yeah honestly i dont care about the other enemeis but serpents at home is too much stress

[latent warren]

that is once i finally manage to get a prism shard

[violet creek]

wilderness farm is neat, while others can enable them later the idea of starting off being plagued by monsters is a cool one

[woven tusk]

I put a lot of lights around my farm when I played Wilderness. Not in the hopes of blocking monster spawns due to Minecraft logic, but so I could see the bastards coming

[latent warren]

maybe wilderness farm can have increased monster spawn rate and give us the rusty sword on start to make it more unique

[drowsy steeple]

monsters should be able to pick fights with animals

[woven tusk]

Scythe works fine for a starter weapon

[latent warren]

now it's just a slightly different basic farm with an unique quite insignificant enemy

[outer sleet]

about to start the great ostrich war...

[violet creek]

mine training rod fishing negates the chance of hooking a fish at all so its just guaranteed trash

[woven tusk]

It's also the only farm that makes sense with Abigail's postmarriage event

[latent warren]

i also think that the swamp farm would've been epic

[drowsy steeple]

traumatized aussie noises

[crude rover]

I personally use the "pond" next to the spa. No need to change rod. 🤷‍♀️

[violet creek]

get some emus on the farm to defend against wilderness golems
cry as they wage ware on your crops instead

[woven tusk]

There are residual files for a scrapped waterfall farm that starts you with a (not elaborated upon) significant bonus but also 1Million in debt, collected in seasonal installments, which can leave your money negative

[violet creek]

fair, i just go to the mines out of habit lol

[latent warren]

so bad animals go to sleep before monsters start spawning

[latent warren]

so a challenge farm?

just like how i want the swamp farm to be

[drowsy steeple]

time to mention waterfall farm with debt

[outer sleet]

thats a kinda crazy idea the game can't even handle debt as it is

[latent warren]

the game might be unplayable lol

[drowsy steeple]

  "JojaGrandpaIntro_0": "???: Very touching... Now, just sign the paper here...",
  "Joja_Debt_Notice": "NOTICE:^^At the end of the season, {0}g will be debited from your account.^^Failure to pay will result in a negative balance.^^Thank you for your patronage.^-JojaBank",```

anyone want to talk about this

[latent warren]

or just painful since you can't buy anything until you earn those thousands back

[crude rover]

I'm thankful it wasn't included.

[latent warren]

1 MILLION?!

[tiny torrent]

This honestly feels like dinopark tycoon from way back

[crude rover]

Although it would be an interesting challenge but I hate Joja.

[drowsy steeple]

I kinda wished it was implemented

like what's the catch

[latent warren]

challenge farm would indeed be epic

[drowsy steeple]

do you get a ton of starting bonuses

[outer sleet]

thats crazy that buff must be huge im curious what it could be if the debt is that much

[crude rover]

As an option sure. But not as default please.

[drowsy steeple]

of course

[violet creek]

i mean... maybe one day
fireworks and the desert racer spriters were in the files in 1.5 and we got them now

[drowsy steeple]

it's called Farm_Perfection and Waterfall Farm_Grandpa

it's supposed to be another option

[drowsy steeple]

not 1.7

[violet creek]

if not, perhaps one day a modder will make it a reality

bring the debt farm to life

[crude rover]

I think there's actually a mod doing that.

[outer sleet]

finally i can be in debt in game just like in real life

[latent warren]

also with how the farm menu ended up we better get 4 more new farms to make it look right

[crude rover]

I don't remember the name of it but there's one where you've to pay your debt in regular intervals.

[latent warren]

||swamp farm, desert farm, cave farm, tropical farm||

[drowsy steeple]

tropical farm like GI? that would be OP

day 1 greenhouse lets go

[latent warren]

or they can keep making farms focused on different professions

[violet creek]

a gorgeous, big map with a beautiful waterfall and a ton of space... and then morris shows up the next day like 'so about our money'

[drowsy steeple]

combat needs a better farm

[latent warren]

maybe they could rework the ginger island farm too to work with tropical seasons rather than being a greenhouse

[violet creek]

imagine a farm thats dedicated solely to slimes for some reason

[outer sleet]

maybe tradeoff would be no grass grows naturally and grass starter doesnt work

[latent warren]

but the upside would be that we could get giant crops on it

[drowsy steeple]

ah yes the tropical seasons, hot, super hot, mega hot, and rain

[latent warren]

so true

[drowsy steeple]

CA should make palm oil

[latent warren]

palm saplings when

[drowsy steeple]

and make it the most lucrative crop

instead of starfruits for some reason

[latent warren]

what could the oil be used for though?

[drowsy steeple]

sell for 9999g

[latent warren]

i wonder how farms focused on the remaining professions could be

[drowsy steeple]

if you don't get the reference palm oil is the reason why we're burning a lot of forests

[steady narwhal]

Oil maker run

[latent warren]

not rainforests, right?

[drowsy steeple]

yea rainforests

[latent warren]

well at least we already know where to find them

[crude rover]

I would like to see a smaller version of the beach farm (with the "no sprinkler on sand"-rule).

[latent warren]

now we just need to send airforce jets to track down and hunt em but no nobody will do that because for some reason the world losing it's lungs isn't the business of anybody who lives in it great job capitalism

[violet creek]

brain once again imagining how people would react if the banana trees were more accurate to irl harvesting

[drowsy steeple]

rainforest-burning is government-sanctioned alright

[latent warren]

??

[drowsy steeple]

they get a cut

[latent warren]

💀

for real?

[unkempt dome]

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

[drowsy steeple]

yea fr it's really easy to stop people from planting a ton of palm oil if you want

[latent warren]

i want a cut too, OF THEM

[drowsy steeple]

I mean it's easy to find hectares of plantations

[latent warren]

so is the government just in favour of destroying rainforests now?

[drowsy steeple]

🔫 always has been

[latent warren]

the world really is marching forward

because we'll go extinct

oops sorry forgot this is a stardew server and channel

[violet creek]

anyways uh

[drowsy steeple]

I mean this channel's usually quite dead anyway

[latent warren]

the blue grass is way too late game

it's relevant even in endgame since the best animals are unlocked near that point

but i still find it being behind QI too late for it

[drowsy steeple]

if you're doing things optimally, you'd always expand your sheep empire

[latent warren]

maybe it could just require farm and foraging masteries

or just for the meadow farm at least

[tiny torrent]

That artisan switch thing feels dirty

[outer sleet]

sheep are so good especially if you are lazy like me

[latent warren]

since we're already supposed to have it earlier and as someone who picked that farm i find it hard to utilize when the stalk is still locked behind endgame

[violet creek]

for some reason my brain is still thinking about how weird banana trees are

i do not know why

[noble ember]

Are you not allowed to plant flowers in garden pots on the ginger island beach?

[violet creek]

but if stardew bananas worked like irl bananas they would be a pain

[tiny torrent]

You mean grafting?

[drowsy steeple]

bananas should switch places with starfruit

[latent warren]

do they work like bananas in the minecraft neapolitan mod?

[tiny torrent]

Did the game stop you?

[latent warren]

i also think more rare crops would be sick

we still only have starfruit, ancient fruit and sweet gemberry

[noble ember]

Yes but I am very surprised and want to make sure that nothing else is wrong.

[violet creek]

i have no idea what that mod is dsgfs
but they only produce one harvest before the upper stalks die and have to be completely cut back so new ones grow

[latent warren]

the ginger island crops are very good but not really in these levels

[tiny torrent]

Which flower are did you try planting?

[noble ember]

Fairy Rose

[drowsy steeple]

starfruits are not rare, it's exactly as rare as beet and rhubarb

[violet creek]

also banana flowers are edible which is neat

[latent warren]

didn't really meant rare

just ya know the 3 endgame crops

[drowsy steeple]

we call it banana hearts

[tiny torrent]

[latent warren]

the 3 most profitable ones

[violet creek]

i wanna try a banana heart one day

[tiny torrent]

I have tried planting fairy rose but not on the beach

[outer sleet]

im gonna check this right now cause this is the second time ive seen this and it keeps bothering me

[noble ember]

I know it can go in garden pots because I did it on the farm.

[drowsy steeple]

sweet gem berry is nowhere near profitable

[violet creek]

ive gotten to try a few banana varieties but never the banana heart

[latent warren]

it's the most profitable crop in raw price

so it has something

also i have an idea for them

since they're GEM berries, what if they also got affected by the gem profession

new iridium gem berry meta???

[violet creek]

i just wish we could eat them
i want my farmer to know what the sweetest thing in existence tastes like

[latent warren]

also junimos should be able to replant crops

[latent warren]

since they're gems maybe only statues can eat them?

[violet creek]

i mean i dont think theyre actually gems, but itd be funny if we've just been managing to grow a weird sweet-smelling gemstone and feeding it to a living gargoyle

[gray zealot]

just got my first fairy box and its only a level 2 smh

[latent warren]

but an endgame crop best for being eaten would be epic

[noble ember]

I think the problem is that the beach is considered outside the farm. It's weird because I'm pretty sure the part west of the stream is considered the farm and you can plant crops in the tillable spaces even though there are only a few.

[latent warren]

either used for a new epic dish or eaten straight up restoring a lot of stats and giving buffs

[latent warren]

anvil

[gray zealot]

true

[latent warren]

get ready for a lot of skull cavern rushing

[gray zealot]

anyway i think these trinkets should be a lot rarer

[crude rover]

First time ever watching a movie and I catch Marnie and Lewis on a date. Is that now good or bad?

[tiny torrent]

I think you’re right. But I also planted garden pot on untillable part of island west

So just the beach part

[drowsy steeple]

what stopped you?

I might be able to code dive to see what the exact limitations are

[noble ember]

The game said I couldn't plant things there.

[latent warren]

be careful when using it since it can take the spot of mussel rocks

[drowsy steeple]

ok on it

[violet creek]

it might also be because the beach zone spawns mussel rocks and it was just done as a precaution maybe?? idk

[noble ember]

I don't need the mussel rocks to spawn anymore so that wouldn't be a big loss.

[latent warren]

it's still really useful for recipes that require fish

[outer sleet]

yeah its definitely the beach i think the grass is safe anywhere its the sand tiles that are off limits

[crude rover]

There seems to be some changes to island west in 1.6. At least you can no longer plant trees right of the house. There might be other changes.

[steady narwhal]

Can't plant stuff on sand tiles

[latent warren]

and talking about flowers, quite annoying that there's still no way to prevent us from picking flowers

[outer sleet]

yeah were looking at garden pots

[noble ember]

That's such a bummer! I had my honey farm practically all set up.

[crude rover]

As your cursor is on the depris where you can't put things to begin with while there are actually garden pots on beach tiles I'm a bit confused to be honest.

[hazy junco]

is the ninth level of the volcano guaranteed to be the maze?

[outer sleet]

i have a controller plugged in the cursor just kinda goes whereever

[crude rover]

Oh. Ok. I didn't know about that and was just confused.

[outer sleet]

no problem

[noble ember]

Okay crisis averted. I'm just moviong my honey operation to the west side of the island farm. I think that the GI farm beach should not count as "not farm" spaces. Is there a suggestion box I can drop that into?

[gray zealot]

i believe so?

[steep hazel]

simple as

luv me trees

[outer sleet]

this is the lorax disguised as the lone ranger

[steep hazel]

I just need oak resin for my buttload of kegs

these are all getting blown to smithereens once I get all I need

[outer sleet]

that is suspisciously cartoonishly evil

[chilly bloom]

All but glacier personally, yeah, and others have gotten all perfect pre 1.6 too.

And in 1.6 again it’s so so so much easier even without the statue buff

[drowsy steeple]

omg editing speed gro in the wiki is a lot of work since you have to edit 3 pages

[chilly bloom]

What are you changing about it

[chilly bloom]

You may have to change more than three

[drowsy steeple]

application after planting

margotbean asked me to revise because it was too opinionated lol

[chilly bloom]

Makes sense

[drowsy steeple]

yeah ik, i'm not used to editing wikis

[chilly bloom]

I could review before you publish if you want

Wouldn’t want one opinion to turn to another

[drowsy steeple]

I already published, https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Deluxe_Speed-Gro

third paragraph

it's a bit of a doozy to rephrase

[vestal cargo]

anyone know if you're still supposed to be able to craft a crystalarium at mining level 9?

I don't seem to have the recipe added

[sage whale]

Have you gone to sleep after reaching mining lvl9?

[vestal cargo]

haha I was just about to say "scratch that - I just slept and it popped up", then I saw your reply, thanks 😄

[wicked frigate]

couple of interesting things today:

• clicking on concerned ape in the loading screen made the screen go green with leaves floating around, sort of like the forest magic cut scene
• Found a pot of gold and a leprachaun hat at the end of a rainbow near the hat mouse waterfall

[vestal cargo]

cool!

[dire hollow]

Both are Easter Eggs! Nice finds!

[crude rover]

What do you do after reaching perfection (not talking about the chicken)? My char is a bit lost at what to do now.

[rich lake]

The chicken?

[drowsy steeple]

all achievements

[molten turret]

nice!

[molten turret]

all achievements, including hidden

im assuming fector will have you stuck for a while

[crude rover]

Before I even consider playing those games I might just quit that save.

thx

ack means i need to make an adjustment to my factory and place more pines

[distant gulch]

i just got 3 golden tags in a row

[chilly bloom]

Nice

[astral vine]

I try to complete personal challenges

[blazing echo]

Decorate the farm (or the whole valley if that's ur cuppa tea)

[wicked frigate]

oh great!

i put my fish smoker in the top left corner of the farm cave. and the dehydrator knocked it off!!! 😦

riverland farm 😦

[crude rover]

I considered making the farm and the house "something that looks at least a little bit good". But that would have been a harder challenge than perfection in around 2 years. I'll leave that to the next save. 😅

[blazing echo]

Oop i get

[soft wasp]

I planted my first two mystic tree saplings one day before green rain

[pearl vortex]

Can you find golden animal crackers in golden mystery boxes?

[plush thorn]

Yes.

[pearl vortex]

Well, i've been looking through the Stardew predictor and i can't find any

Nvm, i've found them

[plush thorn]

It’s only 0.5% chance in golden mystery boxes.

[pearl vortex]

Yea, i noticed. The search distance was only 200 boxes. While mine will appear in box 479

Do you know what channel you're in my dude?

[neat sail]

This is the all spoilers chat, there is no spoiler tags here

I think you're in the wrong chat

[woven tusk]

SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE

[neat sail]

Aw man I hadn't read the halfblood prince yet

[glossy star]

gonna send this to everyone who says that treasue chests r useless

okay i cant remove the spoiler whatever its fine

[olive patio]

it's fine because this is #archived-update-spoilers and spoilers are not necessary

but you can spoiler if you wt

[sacred river]

Fishing treasure chests are never useless

But will lose their usefulness later in the game

As their role is essentially replaced by mystery boxes and to an extent, golden mystery boxes

[woven tusk]

Does Fishing Maatery not do enough?

[worn nest]

I'd like to attest tho that having golden treasure chests allows me to easily net golden animal crackers.

[unkempt dome]

@worn nest You leveled up to Farmer. You're now a prettier shade of blue. Thanks for sticking around!

[nimble turtle]

so would you give an animal cracker to an osterich?

and would you make osterich mayo or just sell the eggs

[hushed hare]

yeah, why not? and if you're making mayo why stop after boosting the production?

[woven tusk]

I believe Ostriches are the best money unless you have golden chickens or Shepherd and sheep.
But you can also use animal crackers for utility instead of money, especially considering you are likely to have some big money sources already by the time you get Mastery. You could feed them to rabbits for more Rabbit Feet or to fish ponds for more items

[drowsy steeple]

how much do golden chickens make vs sheep?

is it even comparable?

[stray swift]

i thought golden chickens cleared sheep by a decent amount

[knotty sage]

Omg if you click on the title screen with Barone's mascot, it turns all green-like!

[neat sail]

Yeah it's a new easter egg!

[half wharf]

Does anybody know when 1.6 will come out for console

[neat sail]

No, keep an eye on #bulletin-board as it will be posted there

[stray nova]

this isn't Emily's best work XD

[knotty sage]

It would've worked if she did this during Winter LMAO

[mellow atlas]

That’s adorable lmao. Out of the three I got my favorite one was either the gnome outfit or the colorful clown outfit lmao

[tidal forum]

Should I go with fishing, foraging, or combat mastery next

Already have the other two

[woven tusk]

If you do a lot of mining, I'd pick combat next for the trinkets

[tidal forum]

Real

I haven’t got any trinkets yet 😭

So sad

I want a frog so bad

[molten turret]

@neon furnace

The 'final path' is the Skill Masteries.

Essentially, all experience you earn pools into a large experience bar, each level allowing you to choose 1 skill to master. Each mastered skill gives its own new unique features, items, and recipes.

[neon furnace]

i need 10000xp
any idea how much is that?

isnt one path by itself like 8000?

[molten turret]

For each level of Mastery, the amount of experience gained is increased significantly. Additionally, Farming experience only puts 50% toward masteries.

[molten turret]

10,000 experience. For reference, going from Level 0 to Level 10 in a skill requires 15,000 experience.

[lilac void]

yeah but this time all the xp is counted together so it's pretty easy

[steady narwhal]

Farm redesigned alot

[lilac void]

1 sc run gave me like 6k xp or something like that

[steady narwhal]

Older farm and even older farm

[molten turret]

Yup.

[steady narwhal]

I'm still redesigning it lmao

[steady narwhal]

Top slight variation

[molten turret]

i really like it

except for the ponds, i dont like those imo, but the way the paths curve and shit and the sheds on both sides is reminding me of like a village or something, its so cool

[steady narwhal]

Tried to design around 4 meteorites and decided to do a bow design

[steady narwhal]

Which ones?

[molten turret]

the fish ponds

[molten turret]

that's really unique and awesome

i didnt even notice, its a town AND a bow at the same time, honestly great use of the middle pond

[steady narwhal]

Damn all of them?

[molten turret]

yeah i js dont like it

[steady narwhal]

Why tho

[molten turret]

they look ugly in general

[steady narwhal]

Fair

[molten turret]

nothing can fix them without mods

[serene lance]

U can make them work, but only have like 1 in the area ang make like a fountain of sorts, or a center pond since its a ponc

[mellow atlas]

Oh my god I'm so fucking stupid!

I apologize that's my fault I forgot that it said spoilers in the thing! Lol

How ironic when I'm tired my mind is playing tricks on me!

😭

Lol

@torpid zephyr

My bad!

[molten turret]

I think you need some sleep

[mellow atlas]

Sorry for the Ping!

[mellow atlas]

I'm alright!

Sometimes I just don't realize!

[molten turret]

Ah okay

[mellow atlas]

Lol

🙂

[molten turret]

It's not omori

it's just a lil doodle of isagi from blue lock

[steady narwhal]

Lmao

[torpid zephyr]

All good

[grim reef]

Question being able to not plant trees in greenhouse, is that intentional or not intentional? If so why was it removed?

[gray zealot]

something dropped an entire crystalarium haha

[steady narwhal]

Oh yeah that could happen because you killed a special monster. One of the special drops in dangerous sc and mines are SC drops

[gray zealot]

dont look at my farm name

i didnt have any ideas smh

[patent sun]

I think it’s iconic

[steady narwhal]

the Farm

[patent sun]

Very edgey

[gray zealot]

it sometimes works fine in dialogue

[patent sun]

Sometimes is more than mine does so

You’re winning

[solid crane]

direct, straightforward. no frills. 10/10 no notes

[gray zealot]

golden mystery boxes and trinkets are way too common

it's been like 30 seconds and i have 2 more golden mystery boxes

3

[patent sun]

Trinkets are starting to annoy me. They are wayyyy too common haha

I love them tho

[steady narwhal]

I sell them by trash bin

[molten turret]

I'm pretty sure you still can

[gray zealot]

yeah

i designated an entire chest to trinkets

[molten turret]

big or regular

[gray zealot]

4

[gray zealot]

regular

but it's 2/3rds full

[molten turret]

dang

[gray zealot]

i'll show in a sec

[solid crane]

Are you on 1.6? You can put them in dressers now

[gray zealot]

oh??

good to know

[solid crane]

And I think they're infinitely large

[gray zealot]

and i have one more basilisk paw equipped

[solid crane]

oh those are

[woven tusk]

Most wearable/equippable stuff can go in dressers. I really need to buy one (or a furniture catalog) some time

[solid crane]

i think not those though

that's not vanilla is it?

[gray zealot]

let me try

1.6

no you cant put them in dressers

[solid crane]

ah word

[gray zealot]

just checked

[woven tusk]

...Wait, I bought the Joja catalog, like, the day after I shut them down because it would be funny. I could've had a dresser this entire time

[gray zealot]

oh well

[solid crane]

i was thinking like rings and clothes and stuff

[gray zealot]

i think it would make a lot of sense for trinkets to be placeable in dressers

[solid crane]

I bet there will be a mod for it after not too long.

[gray zealot]

last day of the season, time to buy a galaxy soul
