So I have a few questions and i'll just leave them here and hopefully people might know the answers to some of them. Some might only be answerable by the team of coral island.

1.Is quality for catching and foraging meant to be this low compared to other aspects of the game? I've maxed out all skill levels apart from combat and ranching. For example, when harvesting crops, collecting ocean scavengeables, ranching and fishing, the payout seems to be something like 65% osmium, 35% gold and 10% silver. Whereas the drop rate for foraging and catching is more like 15% base, 50% bronze 20% silver 10% gold 5% osmium. I do have the rarity upgrades selected and osmium tools. I'm trying to get osmium of every collectable so if i'm missing something that could boost the rates please let me know!

EDIT: This also seems to apply to fruit trees, the saplings not the seedlings.

  1. What part of the map is considered giant village? On the forecast is shows specific bugs can be captured there, however no bugs have spawned there and you cannot place traps in there either. Is the hardwood forest and the path left of the farm considered giant village or is that also general forest. Also what biome does the bamboo forest come under?

  2. What is the flower icon above rings and next to bait for in the inventory? I've seen someone say scents so i've tried to equip it but it wouldn't let me. Also while i'm on scents, when I consume them, how long do they last for, i've checked the wiki and it said it should be displayed in the buffs section, but there is no timer or indication I even have the buff.

  3. Has the perk that makes crops grow 10% faster changed? I saw in a video that it makes all crops grow a different rates and makes them grow fully on different days, making it unorganised. The video was 7 months old so i'm wondering if it has been changed so they all grow at the same time, just 10% faster.

  4. If I equip multiple of the same ring, do the buffs stack? Like 2 rings for weapon use spread (30% each) become 60%?

  5. The ring that gives you rare drop, and the enchantment rare drop. What does that apply to? The wiki says only treasure such as coffers, geodes and fossils but I just wanted to confirm it that is didn't upgrade the quality of lets say crops you harvest with the scythe, or scavengables/catching you have with the ring on also.

  6. Are the following features potentially going to be implemented/changed? Auto-collectors progressing towards skill level, a way to multiply ocean scavengables, like an aquarium. Will you be able to enchant fishing rods/nets at some point. Will the stats/price on weapons be changed at some point, because some weapons cost more than others yet have the same or worse stats (wiki based, can't confirm). Will lamps that you purchase for your farm turn on at night, i'm certain I saw in in a video in the alpha as a feature, but it might because i'm playing on Xbox and the graphics have been turned down to help it run, but they looked so good on the farm.

Sorry, I know its long, but mainly question 1 and 2 is most important. Thanks for any help you can give!

Is item quality bugged? Plus some extra questions.

I could be wrong , but here goes nothing 😂

  1. I dont even understand your question to be honest. Even if you maxed out the tools , laboratory upgrades and your personal skills aint guarantee 100% only osmium. I upgraded at Ling the hay , plants , trees and seeds for osmium .Im about 8-9 lvl on skills and i have osmium tools as well but still having days when i get here and there basic or lower quality stuff. This is just how the game is . Scavenging quality grow as your level and skills. To be honest after i upgraded my seed and trees at Ling i get 80%osmium 18-19 % gold and or silver and very rare when i get 1 -2 % bronze or base. Fishing the same most of the time osmium but sometimes bronze or lower.
    Maybe use boots on your tools at enchantment table.

2.Giant village is where the enchantmen table is , with the Giants.Giant village has no bugs. I think what you mean is the digging site , wich is should be unseenable now ( top of giant village )You can get there after i guess 16th offer to the temple or one of the altar completed.Top of Giant village have a lil forest part where is have bugs a few grave and a ghost flying around sometimes after 8 .. also 1 or 2 hardwood and a staircase than a bridge( wich taking you to dig site) wich if you didnt offered enough should be blocked with a huge stone.There is another way too that area next to Cavern the monkey shop have a stairs as well.Bamboo forest top of hot spring unlocking after you complete the 10th Godess altar offering.

  1. That slot (i might be wrong) but i dont believe exist in the current game yet.

  2. Early access was so different...but again you can buff with your seeds at Ling's laboratory , also skills and feritilizer making it faster. (Gold or osmium ) you can buy at laboratory or Sam's shop if you dont wanna make them.

  3. You cant stock 2 ring on each , as of using the same ring in 2 slots not sure if possible , its wort use different rings .I personaly using the ring of speed ( increase tool use speed ) and the blessed opal ring (increase chance find rare items )

  4. The ring itself not to much of the help , but if you have the ring and you boosting up your osmium tools like scythe and pickaxe, axe and hoe rare top , hit and drop, chance to get more items apply to cutting wood (getting more hardwood/wood ) , diving ( at cleaning trash , dropping you kelps , chests and fossils) , Mining ( give you more stone , fossil , geode and depens from your boots but if you hit stones give you ores as well ) , farming ..to be honest i boosted my hoe that much i hit the sand at the beach or the dirt road an every hit or second hit gives fossils and chests. If you upgrading your fishing rod and net than yes there is a chance to catch double items but that is the skills , you cant enchantment your fishing rod or net.

7.whats gonna change and stay only dev's know but i dont think they gonna change wich is already in the game. If you have skilles at farm lvl there is a chance few items will double few % only tho. Multiply ocean scavengeables dont know what you mean to be honest there is a tone in the ocean 😁.Enchanting fishing rod and net might be , since you still have to find the 5th giant...wich is gonna lead you to even more enchanting you tools you have now...there is a certain limit till the 5th giant i believe. Weapons unclear , i read posts when people suggesting post some details about the weapons like damage etc , but dont know...i think its more pricey because of how it looks....you can buy at the monkry at cavern a 500k worth scarecrow as well and still only 11x11 cover 😂....this questions for developers to answer. Light definitely was on before 1.0 , mine i think even now if you dont its just probably begining bug of the huge release. Coral island on xbox pretty new , a lot bug wich waiting for fix .:)

Dont know if i helped , but i hope . If you wish to see my tool boost , im happy to show you , just send me a message privet. 🙂

Thanks for the response, it is helpful!

  1. I'm basically trying to say that the rates of quality is dramatically different compared to other forms of farming, despite having all skills selected, all upgrades and max level. Your example is what i'm referring to, you are getting 80% osmium for fishing and crops, with the odd bronze or base. I have the same with those two categories, but when i'm farming bugs, ocean critters, scavenging on land and farming fruit saplings (the small ones) it goes down to 5% osmium, not even that. It feels like i'm missing something that the wiki does not show, that boosts the chance of osmium quality for the other farming methods.

  2. This is very helpful, I did not know there was a part of the map yet to explore! I've unlocked the hot spring, but didn't know there was another part to the giant village.

  3. I had a feeling, just wanted to check.

  4. Yeah I know about those, I just have not spent my last skill point on the one that speeds up crop growth as I wasn't sure if it was going to make each crop grow at different rates.

  5. I use the same setup, its very handy. I was just curious if I was specifically going for rare items, if I could use two blessed opal rings and they buffs would stack or it would be the same.

  6. I have the same enchantments too, but I wanted to know if rare drop specifically only applied to loot like coffers, geodes and fossils or if it also increases the rarity of items you collect with it equips. Like using a scythe with rare drop on crops.

  7. Currently if you have an auto-collector and it picks up coop/barn items, you don't gain any experience in the skill with it.

By multiply ocean scavengables, i'm talking about the stuff you collect from the ground while diving or catch while diving. You cannot breed them similarly to fish in a pond, or insects in an insect house.

Yeah some of the pricing in this game is pretty funny.

Once again, thanks for the response, it helps a lot!

For the rings they do stack in the sense that you can double the effect of whatever ring you have if you have two of them

#

Also for the giant village it is the actual village but if you see the bugs found there on the sturdy computer the village extends to that part of the forest you have to unlock by Kira’s house

# tight sparrow Thanks for the response, it is helpful! 1. I'm basically trying to say that the...

Critters goes for diving experience , try max out that , but i dont remember they can be multiply/get double .

Looking at the nap and the unseenable part i think there is a lot to discover. But the digsite even if you unlock will not show on the map only the bugs with the computer. Not gonna spoil , you gonna get there. 🫣

The ring applying for pretty much every tools but like i said itself doesnt make to much.

Ooh , yeah right now only have the mini lake for fich and the tree for bug multiply.

# earnest delta Compliting altar helping on your town lvl and ofc healing the island /opening ar...

After some testing, I have to disagree, i've completed 4 offering tabs since making this post, and seen a remarkable boost in quality of insects/critters I am catching. Additionally, land scavengables have increased in quality.

Most of the quality I am catching now is gold, with a 20% chance of osmium quality. I am 95% sure it is the alters doing.

Although the wiki does not mention it, I just believe it has not be found out yet.
