Scythe is huge. Also animal crackers. Imho farming is the first mastery you should get.

[topaz gate]

Farming it is then i guess

[sour tartan]

I mean
You don't have to fix up cc or get Joja
But if you don't

• No Greenhouse
• No Quarry
• No Minecarts
• No Desert
• No Panning
• Bulleting board has friendship but eh

And of course no movie theater and no Ginger Island

sigh

[sour tartan]

Animal cracker into lava eel pond

[trim plinth]

GI is so profitable

[cloud crystal]

re: Clint, the only thing I've bothered buying from him on my current save (aside from upgrades) is coal, to have enough to ramp up my smoked fish production

(and I've only used bobbers I've found while fishing, thus far)

[sour tartan]

Oh and
No Mutant Bug Lair, no OP buildings from the Wizard, no certain shrines

[sacred river]

So

Like 80% of all game content

Lol

[topaz gate]

Apparently putting 24 animals in a small enclosed space was not a good idea

My blue grass is getting decimated

[trim plinth]

On the other hand petting them takes some time when they are free to roam

I think you can make a grass generator if you build something on your grass. Animals will not be able to eat, but it will propagate

My animals are freeeee

[topaz gate]

Yeah I already have that
But blue grass grows slower than regular iirc

So it's not keeping up

[trim plinth]

Blue Grass is not guaranteed to grow daily, resulting in a slower growth than normal grass.```

Sadge

[topaz gate]

I should probably grab a few regular grass starters from pierre
And put some fence on them
So at least the blue grass isn't eaten all the time and gets time to grow

[mellow atlas]

so thats what fixing pelican town means

[warped panther]

place fences on top of grass

then they cant overeat it all

and it can spread out from under the fence

[topaz gate]

Is ducks swimming a 1.6 thing?

[regal ivy]

Nope

[topaz gate]

Ok epic

Was about to send a screenshot in seasoned farmers then remembered it had blue grass

So yeah the ducks have breached containment

I did not anticipate the river to be an issue

[stoic acorn]

RELEASE THE QUACKEN!

UNLEASH FROM ITS CONTAINMENT!

[topaz gate]

I am now afraid that they won't be able to return to the coop

At night

But I don't wanna keep the gate open

[regal ivy]

They'll return

They always do

[trim plinth]

You need scarefox

[topaz gate]

Okie then

[cloud crystal]

I believe ducks are supposed to swim frequently but rarely do due to how the game's coded?

(I installed a mod to fix that so I could see it more often >.>)

[topaz gate]

Well I heard about it but thought it was rare and no way the ducks would jump out of their area through the river

But here we are

[sour tartan]

Yeah, sadly

I love duckies swimming

[half elm]

when do we get 1.6 in mobile

[regal ivy]

He's working on it

[half elm]

anyways, have the bug or glitch where you can zoom out the entire map to see all of the map in mobile?

[half elm]

i use to do that to find digs spots and fsihing spot back on 1.2/1.3

[surreal cliff]

i believe that it will happen in 2-3 months, but for now move to puter or use 1.5

[half elm]

have this been fixed? any mobile user??

[sonic skiff]

idk if many mobile users (especially mobile only) would be looking into this thread as it has untagged 1.6 spoilers

[analog notch]

I really hope they give us the option to turn off the mini game fish

[regal ivy]

On pc you can just get a mod to skip the minigame

[analog notch]

and mobile too..but pc I love it..but in mobile even with gamepad it´s noots

[sour tartan]

This is literally how my modding rabbit hole has started /srs

[maiden fiber]

No, they can.. it’s any body of water within a certain parameter.. think it might be at least 3x2 but I’m probably misremembering that

[topaz gate]

Yeah I know they can

I just did not expect them to do it and jump out on the other side of the fence

[maiden fiber]

Bahahha

It would be nice if you could have them go back to where they first jumped out

[trim plinth]

I got 5 truffles and 2 crabs from a single truffle crab. That must have been a vision of nightmare.

[maiden fiber]

Holy shit lol

[maiden fiber]

Any mods? Or just monster compendium? Did you have a burglar ring equipped?

[trim plinth]

No mods. Monster compendium and burglar yes

Dude was worth almost 8000g

[maiden fiber]

I figured it had to be both for that much lolol

[surreal cliff]

could enemies appear on treasure floors before?

[sonic skiff]

they could in 1.5

i Think

i remember my farmhand having issues with SC chests bc they would get harassed while trying to choose what to get rid of

[hushed hare]

I remember getting them in 1.5 too, slimes and armored bugs on normal levels, and sometimes dangerous mummies during qi quests

[surreal cliff]

thanks

[chilly bloom]

There are some restrictions too

Sometimes seemingly arbitrary

[chilly bloom]

Yep

[surreal cliff]

does anyone know what happens if i remove all beds in farmhouse and fill all placeable tiles in it?

[verbal sigil]

yes

[verbal sigil]

your spouse and kids just won't sleep if you take them

[surreal cliff]

no, that's for challenge

ill be unable to use money and farmhouse

wondering if bed will spawn if removed, and will filled tiles prevent it from spawning

i guess i have to find an answer to my own question myself

i might be the first one to know

it will be beach farm, house unusable, money cannot be used, game will be translated to chinese which will make me unable to understand anyone

basically linus but worse

[leaden stratus]

ouch

[chilly bloom]

You don’t need to fill up the tiles in the house

With no bed when you pass out you wake up on your porch

[leaden stratus]

without blessing of waters :D

[surreal cliff]

yeah it just happened

i guess ill place abnormal amount of slimes in my house to kick me out of here

[surreal cliff]

• i will need light and eat every day or items will be lost

[surreal cliff]

congrats

[leaden stratus]

more annoying than difficult tbh

[surreal cliff]

maybe, i just want a challenge

[chilly bloom]

Fair enough

[leaden stratus]

why now

in 5 days I got blessing of waters 3 times :(

[rose cove]

could anyone explain concept of green rain?

[trim plinth]

All trees get converted into something else(3 trees possible) for the length of the green rain and convert back after. A lot of weeds spawn on your map, in the forest, in the mountain. All trees get covered with moss. Moss is an important resource in 1.6 that is hard to get otherwise. Green rain is basically moss harvesting day(Fiber too). There are also some fiddlehead ferns that can be harvested.

[rose cove]

thank you!

[rigid breach]

How much chance do I get for my spouse to run shop in calico desert this year?

😔 I wanna get haley iron then forge it with galaxy sword someday

[warped panther]

6 villagers per year
~30 villagers total
~20% chance

[urban wolf]

can leo be a shopkeeper?

[trim plinth]

Yes

He sells banana sapling for 100 calico eggs which is nice

[true depot]

Is it worth getting the game for pc?

With the 1.6 out

[tough remnant]

What happens to your spouse's schedule if you're married? They normally go to bed at night

[sacred river]

I think they just stand at where the bed used to be

And complain about how they didn't sleep the next day

(you also lose friendship)

[low nebula]

1.6 is really awesome but its your choice. Do you like playing games on pc?

[formal cairn]

dumb question but are we getting more updates after 1.6? im assuming its a yes

i know concerned ape is working on another game but it looks like hes always adding stuff to sv as always

[rigid breach]

I got Evelyn shopkeeper for most of the festival and the one that changed was Shane, Pam, then Abigail XD

[chilly bloom]

They just stand at the kitchen or aren’t around

They’ll have dialogue about not having somewhere to sleep in the morning

Same goes if you have a singles bed

[mellow atlas]

yes

[formal cairn]

got it, thanks

[terse garden]

what else can I do with Mystic Syrup?

other than just shlurpin it up

[vapid wind]

You can sell it

[woven tusk]

Sells really well, yeah. Multiple crafting blueprints also require it

[terse garden]

other than that?

[woven tusk]

Blue grass starter and treasure totem and... Was there another?

You can also weave shroom logs between the trees in your mystic tapper grove. Mystics increase the rate of purple shrooms from the logs

[terse garden]

how

[woven tusk]

What do you mean?

Tree, log, tree, log, tree, log, tree

[terse garden]

Oh

nvm

I thought I can use the syrup for the mushroom logs

[woven tusk]

Shroom log output is influenced by the tree types nearby. More mystics mean more purple shrooms, to where more than half of the shrooms you get are purple

[terse garden]

a

[woven tusk]

Double-dipping the big bux from your shroom trees (valuable syrup and valuable purple shrooms)

I think the Raccoons also trade a fairy dust for a mystic syrup

[terse garden]

Ah, I cant post pic here

[woven tusk]

If you wanted to try something unusual with fairy dust, you could trade syrup for that

[terse garden]

I was gonna show how my current mushroom logs looks like rn

[woven tusk]

I think the #images-and-memes channel allows image posts from anyone regardless of server rank?

[terse garden]

ah yeah

i can

but I still have to spoiler it no?

[woven tusk]

Probably, yeah

[terse garden]

okay lemme post it rq

they're all oaks

cuz I need oak resin

[woven tusk]

Morels, then.

If the extra seeds/saplings are causing problems, you could put floor tiles around the trees to prevent it

[terse garden]

for some reason, one of em turned into a mushroom during the green rain

[woven tusk]

That... is weird. I didn't think green rain could convert them to the mushroom type

[terse garden]

yeap

even worse

Its red

[woven tusk]

That makes it extra disturbing in the green rain, huh

[terse garden]

the least valuble

coulda at least gimme a different shroom

[woven tusk]

Shroom trees are always red, I thought

[terse garden]

imma cut it down, its been an eye sore for the past 2 seasons

[woven tusk]

And the tapper results from shroom trees do this weird thing where it depends on which shroom color it gave last harvest

[terse garden]

Ah, finally

I've been waiting for this moment

my 67 kegs of gold quailty Ancient Fruits is done at last

[narrow crag]

Why only gold?

[terse garden]

i don't got iridium

[narrow crag]

Ah i was thinking about casks. my bad

[terse garden]

i lack the lvl 3 fertilizer

[faint grail]

damn i didnt realize

||that if u sell mystic syrup to the raccoon wife for fairy dust u can easily expedite wine aging 🤯||

[terse garden]

Wait

How much Fairy dust u get per mystic syrup?

[faint grail]

one

but its worth if u have the tappers

and a bunch of them

and u save diamonds

[terse garden]

but wait

[faint grail]

waiting

[terse garden]

it'll just be an infinite cycle

[faint grail]

for what

[terse garden]

Mystic syrup > fairy dust > use dust to get another mystic syrup > use said syrup to get the used fairy dust back > continuous loop

[faint grail]

thats not what i said

[terse garden]

I'm just sayin

Its an infinite loop

[faint grail]

||mystic syrup> fairy dust> dust to keg or casks> sell>use tappers for more mystic syrup||

i think u need to read my first spoiler one more time..

[terse garden]

tbh I am a few screws loose

[faint grail]

idk why u would do an infinite loop lmao

[terse garden]

why wouldn't you

[faint grail]

ull waste a day doing that

or days depending on how many times u do it

[terse garden]

that's the point

casually wait for my 70+ Taro roots to grow

And a singular materwelon patch to please the big ol frog in Ginger Island

i wonder how much golden walnuts will he reward me

[signal path]

Hopefully all 5

[true depot]

Heyy

[soft furnace]

theres a new event where a tree falls over and you repair it with 100 hardwood, if you repair it a raccoon inhabits it and you can buy stuff from it :) its not really an animal but its still cool
@true depot

[true depot]

That is still cool

[soft furnace]

yeah

theres a lot of cool stuff in 1.6

[true depot]

I’m so excited

I got to do my research then and figure out how
To mod lol

[soft furnace]

same, i've been playing vanilla for a while but i may get some portrait mods or some recolors

nothing big

[maiden fiber]

!gs

[unkempt dome]

If you would like a guide to setting up mods for Stardew Valley, check out the getting started guide! https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide

To use this command, type !gs.

[maiden fiber]

Yay! Besides my own portrait mod, I recommend Mono’s

[soft furnace]

omg you have a portrait mod??

is it on nexus?

[radiant halo]

Retro Spouse Portraits

[soft furnace]

oh nvm i saw the link on your profile lol

[livid remnant]

Is there a date yet for 1.6 update for mobile?

[maiden fiber]

yeah and thanks!

[maiden fiber]

hi CSS! thank you!

[topaz gate]

I wonder which mastery do I claim 2nd?
So I am suddenly in need of a lot and i mean A LOT of bars

So the mining mastery interests me

iirc it gives u the heavy furnace
Statue of blessings
And what else?

[merry verge]

i havent play sdv for a while... so i forget what to do, and i just unlocked GI. should i focus on collecting golden walnuts on GI to build another home? or just focus on main farm?

[topaz gate]

Imo the ginger island farm is one of the most valuable things you can ever have
Having a HUGE space to just plant loads of ANYTHING is very good

[trim plinth]

Heavy furnace gives a chance to get a 6th bar while it should theorically give you 5. It also saves a lot of coal.

[topaz gate]

Well I guess I know what I am getting

Should help me craft the many tappers I need

[trim plinth]

I find going for SC runs gives massive amounts of metal. Try to get there very early in the morning with ward, skipping everyday tasks. Use your maximum luck buffs when you are already deep in SC floors. Create bombs, go deeper. Then trade with the desert trade for more bombs, buffs, etc. The more bombs you have when arriving, the more metal you have when leaving.

[topaz gate]

Oh no I already have tons of ore

My issue is
I kinda have never bothered to craft more than 3 furnaces

For example
I have around 600 coal
And 700 iron ores

But 3 furnaces

[trim plinth]

I have 6 heavy furnaces. I am comfortable. I used to have 4 regular ones, and it was slow.

I dont know how you manage to have such stacks. I would have crafted 150 bombs already

[topaz gate]

I don't craft bombs
I kinda usually buy them
Or just do SC runs without them

[trim plinth]

wha

But bomb is life

[topaz gate]

True but

That's it
I have no other statement to make

[trim plinth]

I just dared using farm bombing to protect my precious fertilizer. I had 6 iridium sprinklers with fields full of deluxe thingy that makes growth 25% faster. It was 28th of spring. I covered each tile with fiber seeds. On 1st of summer, I used cherry bombs in the spot where the sprinkler stand. It was so fast. One scarecrow died in the process. F

[woven tusk]

Fiber seeds are hella costly. I use coffee beans.

[trim plinth]

Sap, clay and mixed seeds ? Not sure I care about that

[topaz gate]

Starfruits are definitely something

Time to buy pigs

[trim plinth]

Yes. Borderline OP. It it sad to me that they are such a strong answer, that early. They make you bypass so many crops.

[topaz gate]

Well I am thankfully not that early
And I am now slowing switching to ancient fruits

[trim plinth]

cactus, pineapple, rhubarb, any fruit tree, ancient fruit ... Who cares once you have reached Ginger island and have Star fruit.

[topaz gate]

Ngl
I might remove my mushroom logs set up

The profits are not that great compared to the maintenance

The trees are obnoxious because they keep spreading
And collecting the mushrooms feels like an eternity

Just for 20k every 4 days

[trim plinth]

Still better than the shroom cavern.

Ginger island shroom cavern is way stronger since botanist applies and shrooms keep on spawning when you forge them.

Demetrius is a clown.

[topaz gate]

I have 76 stairs
It's a very good luck day
And I have a magic rock candy

This skull caverns run about to go CRAZY

These treasure chests are scamming me
A cowboy hat
Farm totems
And 2 life elixirs??? Really??

4 quality sprinklers

A second cowboy hat

[merry verge]

much appreciated, roxas! it sounds like imma grindin' for golden walnuts :3

[warped panther]

ancient fruit ends up being better than starfruit until you have access to hsg or choose to switch professions every time you sell

[woven tusk]

Clay is costly, at least for the stuff I wanna use it for (Garden Pots, Dx Retaining Soil, and Garden Pots with Dx Retaining Soil)
The 80G to buy more DSG is probably cheaper even if you don't care

If I weren't trying to preserve Dx Retaining Soil across spring to summer on the beach farm (i.e. trying to use DSG on any other farm), I'd just plant sacrificial parsnips on Spring 28, let it die on Summer 1, and refertilize with new DSG. The parsnips hold the soil tilled even as they die, and the dead plants can be cleared easily with the scythe

[surreal cliff]

when do supply crates start washing up on the beach?

[woven tusk]

Day 1. I get about a crate per week, roughly

You can get higher-tier contents from them with a higher-tier farmhouse, but they can still spawn (with a basic loot pool) even with the default house

[surreal cliff]

thanks

[grim rose]

Ancient fruit my beloved 🙏

[surreal cliff]

stop the war between ancient fruit and starfruit

hops better

[warped panther]

hops is its own league tbh

[hallow solstice]

Idk if this is the right place to ask but are there any news about 1.6.9? Or maybe even 1.7, it's sure taking some sweet time

[warped panther]

iirc theres a link somewhere to the 1.6.9 beta

theres zero news in 1.7 whatsoever currently

[hallow solstice]

I'll try looking for that link tyvm I have been waiting for some time about the update so some mods gets updated

[woven tusk]

The dev intends to refocus on Haunted Chocolatier after 1.6 is finished, so 1.7 is not likely to be coming anytime soon

[surreal cliff]

1.6 is great, and im sure haunted chocolatier will be too

i dont need 1.7 right now, ill just be here waiting for other game

[topaz gate]

Idk what my brain told me
But I planted around 100 blueberries on ginger island

I could have planted starfruits
But eh

Anyways

WTF
THOSE HEAVY FURNACES ARE INSANE

[woven tusk]

My first Mastery was Mining and I don't regret it one bit

Churning through ore so much faster, plus the bonus product chance

[grim rose]

i got it but im just always out of ore... i use it too quick

im on spring y2 and its prolly just a skill issue but i just cant find more than 80 of an ore daily

i prolly have to do SC more because i tend to do regular mines to get a specific ore

[weak crag]

Can I build a coupe or barn on the part of the meadowland farm that you can have only access from that little plank bridge

Like can the animals get across

[faint grail]

is my game bugged? i tried looking for leo everywhere and no where to be found at both treehouses and his hut

[regal ivy]

[[Leo#Schedule]]

[formal gorge]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Leo#Schedule

[faint grail]

and im checking both areas when he wouldd be in bed

[regal ivy]

What's the date and season?

[faint grail]

summer 9 tues

[grim rose]

time?

[faint grail]

i checked at 8:00pm

[grim rose]

hm

[faint grail]

at both the island and the valley

no where to be found

[regal ivy]

And how many hearts do you have with him?

[faint grail]

8\

[grim rose]

id just recommend a map tracker mod to find out 🤷‍♀️ you might be missing him somewhere

[regal ivy]

Yeah he should be there

[faint grail]

lol i didnt see him

he wasnt there

i checked both homes

and absent

im just asking if its a known bug

[weak crag]

can animals cross meadowland farm bridge? i know they can in riverland but those bridges are bigger

[cloud crystal]

I found Leo's schedule almost never matched the wiki at 6+ hearts

I distinctly remember finding him going to Ginger Island on a Friday, where the schedule said he wouldn't

(on my first save, at least. not at that point on current save yet)

[woven tusk]

I believe it is

Because I think I saw a patchnote for the beta 1.6.9 version about fixing something like that

[crimson birch]

What is this?

[mellow atlas]

Mastery levels

After you get all stats to 10

[misty wedge]

help
i changed my name to get prismatic shards, and grandpas ghost told me that was bad.
does something bad come out of this?
i just wanted an easy galaxy sword

[crimson birch]

Trash catalogue ‼️

[mellow atlas]

Don't think so (gameplay wise)

[real narwhal]

beratement and possible upset during qi sequence if i remember correctly

but other than that? no

[warped panther]

the message that you get when changing your name is the only thing that comes out of it

no further effects are caused by it at all

its just an easter egg targeted at people who change their names for the item id glitch

[woven tusk]

You can get a scolding from grandpa, a scolding from Qi, or a shrug from ConcernedApe

[warped panther]

its so on point for ca to just shrug lmao

[woven tusk]

UnconcernedApe

[hushed glade]

Moldy couch my beloved

[chilly bloom]

fr

[half elm]

@chilly bloom do you have youtube? im pretty sure i have seen your name before somewhere in youtube

[chilly bloom]

Yeah I do

[half elm]

thats why ur name is pretty familiar

[chilly bloom]

I'm also present on the stardew forums if that's a place you ever visit

[half elm]

maybe thats also... just your name sound so familiar

[chilly bloom]

I did have a video go kinda viral a while back, maybe that?

[stray swift]

wow so famous...

[steady narwhal]

Very famous

[woven tusk]

FamousGorilla

[chilly bloom]

Ikr, actual fans 🤯🤯🤯 /j

truly what has content come to

[south atlas]

Chest

[chilly bloom]

Yes

[pearl fjord]

i got two golden animal crackers in the same 3 seconds

[maiden fiber]

[leaden stratus]

I have no idea how

oh okay makes sense

[narrow parrot]

I can eat this???

[regal ivy]

Yes

[misty wedge]

YES
i just made floor 100 sc

i got 152 iridium to boot, with 4 prismatic shards and 73 geodes.
i like it!

and i got a lucky ring, i thought those were only from panning?

[warped panther]

panning, and special items in sc

so you could get it from special slimes, crates and barrels in sc

[misty wedge]

interesting
i got one from a crate about floor 67ish?

[warped panther]

its an 8% chance to get lucky ring as a special item

and a 1.87% chance to get a special item from a crate

0.08*0.0187=0.001496
so you have about a 0.15% chance of getting one from any given sc crate

[topaz gate]

Just realized I can take one lava eel out of my fishpond everytime it hits 10 and then smoke it for profit
It's barely anything
But money is money

[misty wedge]

how much is a low quality smoked lava eel?

[topaz gate]

3.9k

And some change

With both angler and artisian ofc

[warped panther]

isnt it 2.9k?

700*1.4*1.5*2

=2,940

[topaz gate]

Oh
Maybe I saw it wrong

[hushed glade]

better to trade it to the raccoons for fairy dust though

[topaz gate]

Is it funny that to my knowledge THE ONLY items in the ENTIRE GAME with visual effects in the menus is smoked fish

[topaz gate]

Almost
But basically yes lol
I must have saw the 2 as a 3

[chilly bloom]

I mean technically the iridium star on iridium quality goods pulses

that could be attributed to the item

[warped panther]

damn
must be a rounding error somewhere ingame then

[topaz gate]

Ngl the heavy furnace makes me feel like bars can become a profitable money maker

[warped panther]

theyre a profitable money maker even with regular furnace

heavy furnace just makes it way more convenient

iridium bars from really good sc dives + blacksmith is a ton of profit

[chilly bloom]

they give like 10% mroe bars, it's not game changing especially when you unlock them rather late

selling bars is better early on in the game as it outscales stuff like farming quickly but is very skill based

[topaz gate]

Yeah but regular old furnaces were a very inconvenient thing to use

[warped panther]

yeah true

[chilly bloom]

I mean it's not like there's an absurd difference

1000 ore is only 200 furnaces

[topaz gate]

That's 40 heavy furnaces

Btw I just looked at the raccoon shop in the wiki

Is it even good?

It just looks meh

[warped panther]

some of the trades can be useful

[woven tusk]

Extra raccoon hats for your kids and pets and horse

[chilly bloom]

yeah and that's not really a huge difference, maybe a matter of 30 minutes in game

[warped panther]

e.g. mrc for golden mystery boxes

[chilly bloom]

it's minimized by the travel time being equal for both too

[topaz gate]

Almost done
Just 3 more things

[leaden stratus]

I'm not going to stop anytime soon

[topaz gate]

What do y'all think is the best ring set up in general
I am currently running an iridum band and a burglar's ring
And I have unlocked the forge so I should probably start combining

For a bit of extra context
I am running a crit build

[chilly bloom]

it's relative depending on what you do/what stage of the game you're in

if you're running a crit build it's not even worth using aquamarine imo unless you're ringswapping or really don't have a good 4th ring

I'd go double iridium band with burglar and the last ring can be whatever you find best, aqua can work fine

[south magnet]

I like burglar + iridium and napalm + vampire

vampire is kinda whatev but I'm a big fan of napalm

[south magnet]

coffee ring or lucky would be better than vampire I think

[chilly bloom]

it depends but those two are both good earlygame/midgame rings

[warped panther]

some combination of iridium, lucky, and burglars is usually what i end up using

[chilly bloom]

they do both fall off pretty quick though

vampire rings are almost always bad though so...

can't really go wrong

[warped panther]

vampire ring gets outclassed by like

salads and cheese

[south magnet]

I mean I'm currently just kinda going to the hard-mines and killing spiders and mushrooms for coal and money

and I basically dont need to heal

[tough remnant]

General? Double iridium band + lucky ring. Not the best for anything in particular, but most rings are kinda useless outside of combat, and those ones aren't.

I recommend having at least two sets of rings - one for everyday use doing regular farming/fishing/foraging/social stuff, and another for Mines/SC days

[south magnet]

id replace it if I had lucky but I never got a lucky ring :(

[tough remnant]

Vampire ring is very outclassed by fairy trinket

Although trinket slot is arguably a lot more valuable

[chilly bloom]

Vampire ring is outclassed by simply eating

It’s not like it’s passive either, you have to actively kill monsters to get any benefit

[tough remnant]

Yeah, although hungry challenge exists, and food does occupy inventory space

[grim rose]

im thinking of one i wanna go for and i feel like luck, charmer, iridium, phoenix could be good

if i can actually get all those, anyway..

but def at least slime, they're such a pain in the SC

[tough remnant]

I prefer immunity band personally

10+ immunity gives you 100% chance to resist debuffs

This can be achieved by a single immunity band and mermaid boots

[warped panther]

imo its not worth sacrificing other rings for tho

coz like you dont encounter that many debuffs with just mermaid boots

[chilly bloom]

Yes and that’s it’s one niche use

Also arguing food takes inventory space is much the same as arguing something like the pickaxe does, it’s basically essential and you can always just eat purely buff food

To save that slot

[warped panther]

other than some things in dangerous mines/sc it just ends up being slimes and magma sprites that give annoying debuffs

[tough remnant]

I think it's worth it for Volcano runs if you're hunting rare chest loot personally

[chilly bloom]

I rock an immunity band occasionally

[warped panther]

good point
if ur in volcano alot i can see how that makes sense

[chilly bloom]

Usually for the danger mines if I’m farming it

[warped panther]

yeah that makes sense

[tough remnant]

Danger mines with the nausea ghosts too yeah

[chilly bloom]

I find the 80% from mermaid is enough for quick volcano runs but if I’m in the danger mines for a longer duration I’m definitely getting the nausea debuff

And that lasts forever

[tough remnant]

Because I CBF stocking up on ginger

[chilly bloom]

Mhm

On a recent mobile save I’ve spent about 50 hours farming monsters on levels 40-70 and I always have the immunity band for that, it would be agony without

(Farming galaxy souls and qi gems)

[warped panther]

hm thats good to keep in mind for dangerous mines farming

is there any good way of getting immunity band

or just doing lots of sc and hoping you come across one

[tough remnant]

Could also use basilisk paw

But trinket > ring IMO

[chilly bloom]

Especially if I do have the mermaid boots

[warped panther]

yeah i gotta be rocking the hair gel in the trinket slot

[chilly bloom]

Feels like sunk cost using the paw

[tough remnant]

Well, trinket > ring and +2 defence

[leaden stratus]

pretty sure my new pb in terms of iridium but I'll need to check

[tough remnant]

Paw does let you wear dragonscale boots

[chilly bloom]

nice :)

[chilly bloom]

Mhm, if you have them

[tough remnant]

But defence is basically useless

[chilly bloom]

Especially in areas that are debuffing you

[tough remnant]

+2 makes no meaningful difference

[chilly bloom]

Danger mines and volcano monsters are dealing upwards of 40 damage often

[leaden stratus]

yeah it's my new pb by 587 iridium yay

[chilly bloom]

That’s great!

I haven’t done a deep dive in a good couple years at this point

I should with the new statue buff

[leaden stratus]

yeah they're really powerful

[chilly bloom]

Oh only to 701

I assume you’re not very practiced with pause buffering?

[leaden stratus]

only a bit

but I'm not great

[chilly bloom]

Fair, you could absolutely double that ore count just by bettering your buffering though

Get to 1500-2000 in the same amount of time and you’d be pulling like 7-8k

[leaden stratus]

and didn't want to make this day last forever 'cause it's already 9pm where I live

[chilly bloom]

That’s also fair, pause buffering can take a while

[tough remnant]

Eliminating the need for it would be a top request for 1.6.9

[chilly bloom]

True, balance out other platforms too

[tough remnant]

Time should be paused while input is frozen

It's just an unfun workaround for the fact that inputs are frozen during floor transitions, but time is not

[chilly bloom]

Mhm

[chilly bloom]

And it’s not even all inputs that are frozen, just interacting with the world

You can still move for example which is kinda dumb

[left lance]

Would be nice if the devs brought multi-player to mobil

[chilly bloom]

Kinda impossible as it stands rn

[leaden stratus]

ngl you just gave me inspiration to get even better at this game thanks

[chilly bloom]

Good luck! You can get to some pretty absurd numbers with some effort

Gosh even with miner the increase of the ore buff from the statue is so considerable

I really should try out a run

it's related to the increased price of twitter API, but that's where my knowledge ends

[warped panther]

ah

that makes sense

[chilly bloom]

That’s a shame

[mellow atlas]

What, year 2? 😲

[crimson birch]

What do mossy seeds grow?

[full cedar]

Guys cn you still get the new stuff such as places in an Old save? i plan to restart in mobile while i wait for it

[chilly bloom]

It does say that

[mellow atlas]

That's pretty difficult imo to get all of that stuff in two years time

[chilly bloom]

Basically everything is accessible from old saves yes, you aren’t missing any content

[chilly bloom]

It’s skill based, if you play the game a fair bit or practice sc it’s very achievable

[woven tusk]

They let you have those weird mutant green rain trees even in other seasons. They have some unique advantages

[trim plinth]

They have 3 outcomes, so be sure to observe the shape of the crop in the ground to get the one you want

You can unplant them and try again

[elfin verge]

I never have tried too actually hit that much cash that soon in stardew. it's kinda crazy trying too think of how you'd get several million before year 2s end ... 👀

[chilly bloom]

If you focus on cash early on and some processing it’s decently easy

With dehydrators existing it’s easier than ever

[trim plinth]

You must know the game, that is for sure.

[chilly bloom]

A bit, you could just know general info and totally do it though

Just use joja to get to the island fast then dehydrate starfruit there

Basic or quality sprinklers

Thats already smt like 20 million for pretty minimal effort

[elfin verge]

I never liked going with JoJa for how much easier it was tbh.

[trim plinth]

It lets you play the way you like instead of being forced to check predetermined boxes.

[woven tusk]

Instead, you check much more literal boxes on the development form

[spiral yarrow]

i’ve been playing for years and have still somehow never done a joja run

i’m planning to soon but i’ve just been directing my hyperfixation elsewhere i guess

[crimson birch]

Ive found out that more people have gotten the achievement for 10M gold than completing joja (to be fair they could’ve been using cheats tho)

[steady narwhal]

My gosh which floor did you stop at?

[chilly bloom]

701

They showed an image of it a little below

[steady narwhal]

Dang

[quaint pewter]

Any tips for getting cave jelly?

nvm got one

[south magnet]

best strat would be fishing close near you, default odds is 5% of cave jelly for every non-lava-eel you catch
it increases with 5% for every luck buff

for if you ever need a 2nd one

[tough remnant]

If you want to maximise odds, there are strategy recommendations on the wiki pages for each of the jelly types. Cave Jelly is easy though - Mines 100, just stack luck buffs and fish as close to the shore as possible. Don't use a training rod, curiosity lure, or lava eel bait.

[steel wyvern]

I did a joja run and found it just plain boring.

[chilly bloom]

It’s only good when your goals go beyond just completing the cc or a regular casual playthrough

It’s a better means to faster accessibility and completion for time based challenges

[trim plinth]

I never had a doubt.

[high rampart]

When is challenge bait worth using over target bait?

[agile latch]

when you're a giga pro stardew angler

[high rampart]

That's very useful, thank you

[tough remnant]

If you can reliably get perfect catches... basically always. Targeted Bait almost never provides a >3x catch chance multiplier. On top of which, challenge bait is relatively cheap, and also multiplies the value from your "misses"... meanwhile, targeted bait tends to be quite expensive, as any fish worth targeting is likely quite valuable, and you have to sacrifice a fish that you could have sold to get targeted bait, and it frequently misses anyway.

Only exception I can think of is Caldera lava eel fishing

[high rampart]

What about catfish since they're basically guaranteed with target bait and you can easily print 40 iridium ones a day with a quality bobber?

[tough remnant]

Challenge bait still better if you can reliably perfect - they're already iridium quality, but you can end up with 60+

[high rampart]

Must've had some trash luck then because I didn't get nearly enough catfish biting in a day to make it worth with challenge bait

If I'm supposed to get close to 20 bites a day then I for sure see how that'd be better

[tough ridge]

WHY DID SHE DRESS ME UP AS LEWIS IM SCREAMING

Youre on my hit list Emily sleep with both of your eyes open

[agile latch]

hello mayor lewis

[tough ridge]

im going back to that corporate job this farm was a mistake

[hybrid sand]

hey i married that lady

[tough ridge]

matching with babe

[hybrid sand]

besides you can just unequip the clothing

[tough remnant]

I wonder if that one hyper-feminine outfit is still classed as neutral for the desert festival

It struck me as something that would probably get patched as a potential sensitivity issue, but I haven't paid attention to the recent patches

[south magnet]

I like challenge bait on island south, flounder and lionfish are both worth a lot

you can catch tunas though

ig its no catfish though

[topaz gate]

Better than mine

[tough ridge]

Roxas... are you a Kinhdom Hearts fan by chance?

[topaz gate]

Duh

Lol

[tough ridge]

I think this is Emily her way of saying that she hates us

[topaz gate]

It's even funnier because that was right before her sister's wedding

And I like Emily so I decided to keep the outfit on for the rest of the playthrough till the next desert festival

[tough ridge]

I married Shane I think she doesnt support my doomed yaoi marriage

[dense briar]

Do dehydrators need the thing to all be the same quality

[finite horizon]

Yes

[terse garden]

who'd be the best husband?...

[tough ridge]

now im not lewis im just a construction worker

[tough ridge]

Shane !!

[terse garden]

does he has good characteristics?

and does he provide much?

[tough ridge]

He provides rizz

and uhh charms

trust !!

[terse garden]

He better be good

if not

Imma hunt u down with an Iridium Axe

[tough remnant]

Harvey no question. Guy's basically the only bachelor who actually has his shit together.

Alternative answer: male farmer

The farmer is an opulently wealthy landowner who will shower his spouse with luxurious gifts and affection on a routine basis, and otherwise leave the spouse to just do whatever the hell they feel like without question

[trim plinth]

I thought it was impossible

[sacred river]

Personal preference
They all have their pros and cons

[terse garden]

what kinda gifts he gives tho?

[tough remnant]

Complete Breakfast and Salmon Dinner are the big two - very nice as those are kinda annoying to get and are loved gifts for Alex, the pickiest SDV resident

[terse garden]

other than those?

[tough remnant]

Few other cooked dishes

Nothing great

I'd have to check the wiki

Really, all the husbands have shit gifts

Wives give much better stuff

[terse garden]

damn, really?

[woven tusk]

Abigail gives explosives

[tough remnant]

Yeah, it's kinda amusing. Haley probably has the worst gifts of all the bachelorettes, and hers are basically on par with most of the bachelors

[woven tusk]

Penny and Leah give exclusive decor via post-marriage cutscenes, Emily gives exclusive clothes in a post-marriage scene

That leaves... Maru. I don't remember what she has

[tough remnant]

Abigail and Maru have excellent gifts including bombs and crab cakes (an actually decent food to carry around for speed buffs), Leah's gifts give rare access to out of season forage, Emily can give cloth, wool, and omni geodes, Penny is kinda meh but can at least give Salmon Dinner to help befriend Alex

Krobus can give void salmon and lucky lunch though

[distant seal]

What does everyone think of Mayor Lewis?

I am in Y1 but when I played to Y3 before 1.6, I thought he was alright

DOn't get the hate when he seems to genuinely care for the town. Only issue is him not being honest with Marnie

[sacred river]

Uses the town's taxes to build gold statues of himself

His relationship with Marnie is the least hateable aspect about this man

[radiant halo]

Yep, I mean the Marnie thing is one thing but the malversation of public funds is another

[rose cove]

for how long can be trinkets used?

[quiet rampart]

as long as you want, afaik

it doesn't have durability or anything

[rose cove]

oh thank you so much!!!

I still haven't played 1.6 so I'm curious

[woven tusk]

Eh, gold isn't valuable in this setting, it's fine.

[woven tusk]

Put another hat in your hands and click the dog again. It will pop the dog's current hat off first; the next click will put the new hat on it

[distant seal]

wait really

[woven tusk]

Well, statue singular

1G is closer to a cent than a dollar in this setting, so it's basically made of pennies

It is one of many hints that he is actually retired Luigi

Here we go

[woven tusk]

That's his brother's catchphrase!

[maiden fiber]

LMFAO PLSSSSS

[sudden shadow]

Anything special to do with the truffle crab other than kill? I'd like to keep him as an unofficial pet on the farm if possible

[maiden fiber]

That’s cute lol

[cyan violet]

I think there's a mod to adopt them as pets.

[topaz gate]

Time to destroy my mushroom logs set up

It served me well early game
Giving me a ton of gold
But now it just became annoying to keep up with

With how much the trees propogate

[woven tusk]

Just place floor tiles around the trees

Or migrate the build to somewhere outside the farm so the trees can't propagate

[topaz gate]

Nah collecting the mushrooms also started to feel annoying

Probably cause my set up was very dense in trees and logs

And it just like
The effort no longer feels worth the money

[woven tusk]

Eh...
My ||shroom logs|| are woven into my oak resin grove

So I haven't felt that way yet

[topaz gate]

Also wow I never used the iridium axe before
It's very fast

[topaz gate]

I use pine trees for mine

So it's not even like I can get something from tapping the trees

[woven tusk]

Oof

I also have ||mutant green rain trees|| woven in for faster ||moss|| production

[topaz gate]

Pine trees give chantrelle which is the best shroom

Aside from purple

Once I unlock the foraging mastery I might make a new set up with mystic trees
Since they don't propogate
And actually make something of value

[topaz gate]

We are in the 1.6 spoilers channel btw

[woven tusk]

Certainly; the idea here was that resin+morel is more useful to me than tar+chanty

[topaz gate]

Yeah when i made this set up
I didn't comsider that I will need resin for kegs

So I went for the most profitable shroom

And hey I was getting around 20k every harvest

[woven tusk]

That is good cash for early to midgame, considering how close to passive that is

[topaz gate]

Yeah
It really accelerated my progress

[woven tusk]

I should give it a try if I do a new farm later

[topaz gate]

But now I bought pigs
And have both ginger island and green house full of starfruits

[leaden stratus]

I'm going to try this when I start a new farm

[topaz gate]

20k per 4 days is becoming little and annoying to deal with the trees
Because I rarely ever bother to decorate the farm let alone make paths lol

[woven tusk]

It's cool, just put the grove outside the farm or pave the area around the trees, and they won't spawn saplings around them

[topaz gate]

The set up on the left is the one I was using
Specifically only the top 2 sqaures
Shoutout to the random person on reddit that made this

I had 17 mushroom logs

I lied
I had more

I had 34 mushroom logs

[woven tusk]

Cool layout, though I don't think I could stand to deal with the spiral shape every harvest

I'd probably just make simple rows and call that good enough

[topaz gate]

Well I did want to maximize profts

[topaz gate]

And I did want to delete it because it got annoying

But nice I got an entire stack of wood from absolutely nuking the set up

Also wow big chests are insane

[woven tusk]

It's impolite to stare at a big chest

[topaz gate]

[languid wagon]

Boo

[woven tusk]

Well, that's the first part of the word

[regal ivy]

Boobles

[mellow atlas]

Booleans

[unkempt dome]

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

[regal ivy]

Ahaha love when weird messages make people level up

[woven tusk]

Good things happen when you play along with The Bit

[mellow atlas]

haha

[topaz gate]

I just ran into a small glitch
Nothing game breaking

I somehow managed to proc the fishing mini game on my lava eal fishpond?

I even encoutered a treasure but I didn't go for it
And got a perfect catch

Oh no it used up one of my statue of blessings fish blessings

Yup recreated it
Even got a treasure chest

Fishing at the very upper edge of the pond seems to proc the mini game

[tough remnant]

I think that can happen if you place the bobber right on the top edge of the pond, due to the bobber oscillating up and down to simulate waves in the water

[topaz gate]

Yeah

Seems to be what is happening

[tough remnant]

So if you reel in while the bobber is at its apex, it might be outside the area it's supposed to be

[trim plinth]

You should report it

You can achieve similar outcomes in other areas - for instance, fishing in the bottom pond in the Desert isn't supposed to get any fish, it's just meant to be algae, trash, and the Pyramid Decal. Fish on the top edge though, and sometimes you'll get a Sandfish or Scorpion Carp

They must be comically huge for actual dwarves to wield

[tough remnant]

Given we know that CA is a huge Zelda fan...

[woven tusk]

Sounds about right

[topaz gate]

Just realized that dino mayo is basically useless compared to regular dino eggs with the treasure appraisal book

[woven tusk]

Ayup. One for the shipping collection, one for the Missing Bundle, and that's all you'd want to make

How'd that happpen?

[topaz gate]

Yeah
Like dino mayo used to at least sell more than dino eggs
But now that's no longer true

[mellow atlas]

just realised that dinos are useless once you get gold chicken

[woven tusk]

Dinos are useless long before then

Chickens make better money even with the artifact guide

You want mayo for the shipping collection and Missing Bundle, and maybe to hatch one just to make Demetrius drop his coffee

(Which is a thing that happens in v1.6)

But otherwise, the money was never the point

[twilit briar]

new beta feature

[tough remnant]

Dinos are useless in all circumstances pretty much. Even for the highly niche usecase of "what if you can't make processing machines for some reason and have to sell produce raw", Dinos are still second best... to Cows, which are far easier and faster to obtain.

[tardy timber]

But dinos are cute 🦕

[tough remnant]

That they are

Good at being cute

Bad at providing value

[chilly bloom]

Mhm, decently niche as it only really applies on the farm, doesn’t pause when the game is paused, and is only really useful early game when you don’t have the magnetism

[steel wyvern]

Dino eggs are classified as artefacts which means their price is affected by one of the new books.

That ramps up with quality too

[chilly bloom]

And they still aren’t great

[tough remnant]

Yeah we were accounting for that

Dinos with the artifact book are slightly worse than cows even without cheesemakers

They are, however, no longer the least profitable animal

That honour belongs to ducks now

[steel wyvern]

Ducks make loved gifts for Leo

And I eat a significant portion of the cheese production

[signal path]

Wait yo should I get rid of my ducks and replace them all with chickens and rabbits and Dino’s

[tough remnant]

Ducks are indeed terrible if you're trying to make money

[trim plinth]

No mod. When I put the mammal spine in the GI museum, game froze then crashed. It was the final piece of the whole museum. Next day, I will try again and see if it happens again. I already submitted the bug with a save

Depends what you’re fishing for. But if it’s perfect catches then use cork

something that helps stabilize the fish or makes my fishing bar bigger do yknow of any bobbers?

[trim plinth]

the small grey one or the small brown one

[maiden fiber]

What I just said makes it bigger

Trap = slower

[hazy hamlet]

ohh okay thanks alot

If you're struggling to get catches, trap is by far the best, don't even consider anything else until you're good enough at fishing to catch them without any trouble

[hazy hamlet]

how do u upgrade coop? it only says upgrade home and also when u construct farm building it says to build a big coop not to upgrade it

[cyan violet]

Select build big coop. The game will then have you choose a coop to upgrade.

[sudden shadow]

Ive never done the slime eggs/hutch before...what, if any, are the benefits?

[topaz gate]

A lot of slime
And u r able to get money through selling slime eggs

[cyan violet]

It's not the most profitable path. The main reason to do it is just if you really like the idea of raising slimes.

[topaz gate]

Yeah

[sudden shadow]

Ive made a few eggs, just not sure I want to commit farm space to it - TY!

[sudden shadow]

Are they aggressive? Or like pets?

[cyan violet]

I haven't done it myself, but from what I've heard the slimes will still attack you, and you need a slime charmer ring to raise them safely.

[hushed hare]

they are agressive, but there are tricks to keep them away even without the slime charmer ring

and once you do get the ring, you can even grow them outside

[sudden shadow]

Nice! TYvm for the info 😄

what are ways to get a better sword then the dark sword lvl 9

[tough remnant]

Just discovered a funny interaction that I didn't know about before on my current save - when you trigger Emily's 10 heart cutscene, you wake up wherever you last slept. So I went to sleep in the secret woods in the tent, and woke up in the beach house on Ginger Island 😛

[surreal cliff]

searching for prismatic shard and turning it into galaxy sword

there's weird looking stone appearing sometimes in quarry

25% to drop the shard

[chilly bloom]

No but where would it really be useful off the farm

It’s super rare to have resources right next to water that even have a chance of going in the water

Could be useful very rarely in the volcano

[maiden fiber]

I actually use this a LOT, because I don’t buy my backpack upgrade for a while

I intentionally fished further up the shore just so I could drop items without them falling in water then pick them up next day

[chilly bloom]

Yeah but it doesn’t pause when you pause so there’s no time to sort the inventory and do that

That’s what I mentioned in my first comment

[maiden fiber]

Ohhhh :[ womp womp….

[tough remnant]

Super useful early game when cutting down trees for wood

[maiden fiber]

Yeah not losing all the wood at mountain lake & Cindersap is gonna be so pog

[tough remnant]

There's tons of trees where no matter which direction you cut them down, some of that wood is going in the water

[chilly bloom]

Somewhat, for the few trees you can only mine into water somehow. Also you only have base magnetism which reduces usefulness

But it can save a couple wood here and there which is nice

Especially on more water prevalent farms

[maiden fiber]

I’m still grateful for the change

[tough remnant]

Eh, early game I often end up with a random magnet ring or something

[maiden fiber]

Real actually

I’m at a couple weeks in and I got a magnet & a small magnet

[chilly bloom]

Fair true, but beyond say the first couple of days I also usually don’t care about optimizing every tree I cut for every piece of wood

[maiden fiber]

I do LOL all my energy going to fishing so I need as much wood chopped as possible if I’m using energy for it

[chilly bloom]

I kinda meant I just buy the wood

It’s so cheap early on

[hazy hamlet]

guys if i leave my horse just randomly anywhere in the map will it go back to the stable?

[chilly bloom]

Yes

Each night

[tough remnant]

Eh, I usually only start buying wood once all the trees are chopped. I prefer to get the wood by chopping because I need the forage XP anyway

Since forage is super slow to level up

[maiden fiber]

True but I mean for just like my first couple chests

[tough remnant]

Ever since the wild seeds nerf

[chilly bloom]

Lately I’ve been using the desert fest strats actually

[maiden fiber]

Funny I never used forage seeds for exp ever, or for anything really

[tough remnant]

Well, you missed your opportunity 😛

[maiden fiber]

Oop

[chilly bloom]

Lol

[maiden fiber]

[chilly bloom]

That’s how I used to get most of my late levels

[maiden fiber]

B-but… My tea saplings..

[chilly bloom]

Just a large farm in the winter

[tough remnant]

They give half farming/half forage XP now... which makes sense, but does mean you have to actually forage to get forage XP

And actual foraging is slow

[maiden fiber]

I just actually foraged LMAO

Am I the problem

[tough remnant]

No

[maiden fiber]

Yay!

[tough remnant]

You are doing what we were meant to be doing all along 😛

[maiden fiber]

[tough remnant]

Turns out that the bonafide foraging experience isn't meant to be "farming but worse"

[maiden fiber]

LMAO

That made me giggle

[woven tusk]

Winter wild seed farming, with Botanist, is better profit than most spring crops. That's even including crafting new seeds from each harvest

[tough remnant]

Spring crops are godawful

[woven tusk]

I wonder how well Powdermelons measure up

[tough remnant]

Even Strawberry and Rubarb

[chilly bloom]

Poorly

[woven tusk]

It enforces earlygame hell

[woven tusk]

Oof.

[chilly bloom]

I would have loved if the new crops were genuinely good and it was another ancient fruit situation where you had to find and propagate them

The limit being on their own reproducing

[woven tusk]

But it's just carrots with a niche and the others not so much, huh

[maiden fiber]

They’re sorta like that

[chilly bloom]

How

They all sell for nothing and only carrots are slightly good

[maiden fiber]

Cause you can’t buy them from Pierre or Sandy & gotta find them

[tough remnant]

I'm honestly annoyed about carrots because we already had carrots in the game

[maiden fiber]

Oh I thought you meant just how to get them, not profitability wise. Lol

In my cooking mod, I made it so that these new 1.6 crops are ingredients for universal loved cooking dishes at least

So there’s some kinda use for them

[chilly bloom]

No sorry I meant if they had their existing mechanic and an actual good reason to use them

They aren’t even in any cooking recipes

[maiden fiber]

Ohh I see sorry I just woke up (don’t judge me :3)

[tough remnant]

Summer Squash is the one I'd never use

[maiden fiber]

Exactlyyyy that’s why I made the mod!

[tough remnant]

Powdermelon at least has deco potential

[chilly bloom]

Isn’t it 12:30…

[maiden fiber]

(WHAT DID I JUST SAY RILLA)

[chilly bloom]

Yeah I like the large powdermelon

The new large crops were a nice addition

[maiden fiber]

13 years to get all 5

worth

[chilly bloom]

They better have been in a nice row or smt

[maiden fiber]

Idk if I can design another meadowlands farm because I just love mine too much

[chilly bloom]

Let’s see it

[maiden fiber]

I put braziers around them & the giant qi one got marble ones heheheheheh

YAY

I cannot unspoil these on mobile & it’s making me infuriated

I went for design over aesthetic I’m sorry I don’t have 30 more coops

[chilly bloom]

Took a photo of all four seasons but then only had ancient fruit 😭

[chilly bloom]

Not enough it seems /j

[maiden fiber]

LMAOOO duhhhh

[chilly bloom]

So called farm designer

[maiden fiber]

The /j won’t stop my self consciousness……

[maiden fiber]

ITS CALLED BALANCE

[chilly bloom]

True because you need so much money post perfection on a file you won’t play mb

/hj

[maiden fiber]

Oh I took that pic right after perfection but tbh I think I legit only made more AF just to have crops for each pic & not have to deal with replanting LOLLL

Had to do it … for Reddit

[chilly bloom]

Always out for karma

[maiden fiber]

I’m 2k away from 20k and I think like half of it is from SDV

[topaz gate]

The max speed u can reach in 1.6 is ridiculous

I feel like sonic the hedgehog

And i am not complaining

[tough remnant]

I'm annoyed because the long term completionist farm that I'm working on is locked in 1.5 hell as I slowly grind up a supply of iridium star seaweed for my "perfect" fish tanks

Since they removed the ability to get it completely in 1.6

When I'd been hoping that they'd make Botanist work on seaweed in the hard mines 😢

[maiden fiber]

Lmao sic 😭💀

[topaz gate]

Suddenly after accepting Caroline's special order that requests 100 ginger
Tiger slimes stopped dropping ginger

Fun!

[tough remnant]

It's so slow, it can only spawn in a narrow strip on the bottom of right side beach

[maiden fiber]

What about dangerous mines tho

OH right

Doesn’t work in there

[tough remnant]

Doesn't work

For some reason

[maiden fiber]

Whyyyyyy

Maybe oversight?

[tough remnant]

Well, they decided to fix the oversight by making it not work on Seaweed at all

Seaweed was the only Mines forageable that was also forageable outside the Mines

Which is why it ended up weird

[maiden fiber]

Ah

[tough remnant]

Mines forageables got patched to not work with Botanist back in the early days

Before Iridium quality even existed

I still have a save with the legendary gold star fire quartz lol

Best Crystalarium gem

[chilly bloom]

No?

What about everything else in those early floors

You can find coral, nautilus shells, rainbow shells, etc.

[tough remnant]

Huh, I may have forgotten about those. Trying to remember if they had quality in the mines or not

[chilly bloom]

They don’t

They definitely aren’t affected by botanist

And I assume if they aren’t affected by botanist they aren’t affected at all

[maiden fiber]

I wonder why I can get diff coral qualities tho

Like on beach farm

[chilly bloom]

Because nothing else was changed

Seaweed was just weird to begin with then was changed to only be that weird state for some reason

I honestly don’t get the logic

[maiden fiber]

Weirdddd

[tame hedge]

mkay so the wiki says putting the lucky purple shorts in your advanced iridium rod makes the second tackle lose no durability

but this is just straight up wrong

[chilly bloom]

Patched then

Or it was heresay

[tame hedge]

possibly hearsay

[chilly bloom]

The wiki has a lot of specifics that are wrong or just not objectively the best when it says they are

[stoic acorn]

beach forage items do count with botanist

so grab some coral from the beach

[tame hedge]

I've heard a bit of the wiki info on the lucky purple shorts is just false

[chilly bloom]

Not for seaweed on the beach farm even in 1.5 sparking the question

[maiden fiber]

Not for seaweed

Anymore at least

[chilly bloom]

No it’s generally correct, it’s just rather brief

Ignore the pun

[tame hedge]

I was talkin' about the part that says giving Lewis the shorts while he's visiting the island causes him to wear them when visting the island for the following month

which I've seen debunked in a youtube video

[stoic acorn]

they asked about coral, maybe seaweed is classified differently? Everything else I pick up from the beach is iridium, also shellfish

[tough remnant]

Nothing on the beach farm has quality

None of the beach forageables on the beach farm have quality, I should say

Stuff like the foreageable cockles are plain as well

[tame hedge]

mkay so I'm lookin' through the patch notes for info on this, and...

-Fixed prismatic hat effects not working in French.

how does that even happen

[chilly bloom]

They’re question was revolving around the context of our discussion abt beach farm in general

[woven tusk]

French
No color

Mimes?

Mimes infiltrated the code.
They're the perfect spies; they're completely silent!

[maiden fiber]

Really? I never seen that

[mossy dune]

The iridium golem drops bait and bobber books

[maiden fiber]

Ahh cool

That’s actually huge

Hermit challenge kinda sounds fun now

Which farm type is best recommended for it? I’m going to assume forest, but beach also seems viable with the loot boxes

[mossy dune]

Which can get you xp to get the crab pots for trash, which in recycling gives you quartz

[maiden fiber]

Beach actually seems better because of that

[mossy dune]

Four corners

[maiden fiber]

Hmmm. Why 4C and not hilltop?

[mossy dune]

It doesn't have the ore tho

[maiden fiber]

I see

[mossy dune]

4 corners is easier to traverse without breaking any big rocks or logs

[maiden fiber]

I see

[mossy dune]

And also has mixed seed giving weeds

[maiden fiber]

Honestly tho, what is the point of this challenge? Like, when does it end lol

[mossy dune]

For me I just try to get as many items as possible or a lot of money

[maiden fiber]

I know but I have so many perfections because I like playing with an end goal in mind

I personally can’t do a challenge that has like no end to it

[mossy dune]

You could try for max in all skills

[maiden fiber]

Oh true, that’s fun! And once I do then I can leave the farm maybe lolol

[hazy hamlet]

guys what kind of farms should i be doing at the desert ?

[maiden fiber]

I do tree farm personally

[mossy dune]

Yup!

[maiden fiber]

Then have more kegs later super end game when I have obelisks or totems on stock

[maiden fiber]

Thanks for the fun idea!

[mossy dune]

Np lemme know how it goes, do be warned it is VERY grindy

[maiden fiber]

Grinding doesn’t scare me trust me lolol

I’m on perfection 5.25 right now :p

[mossy dune]

The bait and bobber book is .2% chance and you need 14 of them lol

[mossy dune]

Once you get 14 you can use worm bin for endless xp

[maiden fiber]

14?

Oh I didn’t read above

[mossy dune]

Bait and bobber books

You also can get them from artifact spots

[maiden fiber]

Ya this will definitely be a mobile casual run lol

[mossy dune]

Good luck

[maiden fiber]

Ty you too!

[hazy hamlet]

guys i just entered my 2nd dive into skull caves and i got something called curiousity lure it says it increase chances for rare fish

what do they mean rare fish

[warped panther]

it just modifies the % chances for fish while you have it equipped

fish that are usually rarer to hook become more common

[hazy hamlet]

guys if i have my fishing rod watering can and all my tools with me and i die in the skull cavern and i lose both my watering can and sword does that mean i can only take one of them? IF IT happens or does tools not drop in the cave?

[tough remnant]

It essentially makes the distribution of fish more even. So if you'd ordinarily catch 10 of Fish A for every 1 of Fish B, it'll bring it closer to 50:50

[tough remnant]

You can't lose tools, generally speaking

Outside of some really niche stuff that you basically have to be deliberately exploiting

[hazy hamlet]

also does my character get fatter every year plumping up

or am i just hallucinating
