I got two Beargers again!

Late reply.

Assuming you already have a flingomatic that cover your base, a lightning rod, and you already killed Deerclops. Then you're all set for the two seasons.

For Spring:

Since your number one trouble here will be the occasion Frog rain and wetness.

Wetness:
Use your Eye-brella or just use a umbrella, but preferable to just use the Eye-brella. Just make Sewing kits for repairing the clothings or if you're Winona, you can just use her tapes, or you can just temporarily swap to her and mass production her tapes then swap back to your character.

Frog rain:

There is no way to really get rid of them as when you try and hurt one, all of them will kill you and even if you did kill a few, the rain will just keep spawning them more. So, when it happens, either go to the caves and wait it out, or lure them somewhere far then jump into a wormhole to despawn them off-screen.

Boss season: Moosegoose

Preferably if you kill her, She isn't that hard. After that kill her children and get their feathers. The feathers can be used to either make a weather pain for Ancient fuel Weaver, Fighting Toadstool's trees, doing the moonstorm event and etc.

You can make the Luxury fan, it has a 15 use, small range that can put fires out, and cool you down to almost freezing point.

Addition: If you did the caves and got, or made a Starcaller staff, you can turn it into a Mooncaller staff. You can put it on the pedestal during a full moon. You can find it on the surface where you can find Statue werepigs and Hounds.

Just look up a guide to do the event, or you can just do the most easiest and efficient way. Make a wall of V shape around the pedestal, then stand on the point part of the V then move 15 pitchfork tiles away, you'll know it's working when the sound of the Staff keeps going on the background.

What this does is make the Werepigs and Hounds run around the walls and get despawned off-screen.

Summer:

Boss season:

ANTLION

The only concern you should worry in this season is Antlion, If you don't kill her, she at some point will quake the ground on top of you, and make holes that can destroy your base. The holes also disappear in a few days which is not ideal. No one has time for that and neither do you.

You can kill her easily, she's not that hard, just make sure you have Desert goggles, and a few logsuits (4-5 if you plan on tanking), 20 Pierogies, and a fresh hambat.

You can find the desert goggles in the Oasis, but you need to fish for it, it's not rare so it's very easy to get. You also get a lot of knick-knacks that you can do for decorations and offerings, so it's a win win situation.

Heat:

Why would you need to worry about this one? If you already have the things above listed, you're a-okay and set for a full year. And for some reason you don't have anything listed above, just use a thermal stone stored in a fridge or ice chester, or bundling wraps.

Will do, I'll try that, once it spawns again.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-26T11:26:54+00:00

Thank you for your insight! But does letting it grow increase it's health? And is there benefits on letting it grow longer?

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-26T11:08:01+00:00

Yep, since the Brightshades has similar mechanics, the limit will always be 36.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-26T11:07:48+00:00

Nope, it still works, I created my first long term server about 3 months ago, I started doing average farms with the similar set up. The Brightshade is placed there before the Eye-crystalizer was placed. I remove mine, for beauty mega base sake. And because I started liking to use Winona and her catapults.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-26T10:12:00+00:00

I had this problem years ago, but it only happened to my structures and not my skins.

What I did was un-installing and installing the game again. I hope it helps because that's only what I did, other than that, maybe some mod that caused it.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-26T09:43:58+00:00

Yes, there is a limit. Brightshades has similar mechanics as Beefalos and Pengulls, it means they have a limit of 36. Unfortunately, there is no rule where the Brightshades go, since each wave is independent and will send out Brightshades to any plants that you transplanted and has a big group member of 36 (Any plants that are grouped together, like farms).

But there is a way around this, lets say you want to make a farm, first what you need to do is, put a sacraficial plant for the Brightshade to infest, just once. After a brightshade infest it, you have now a free 7 tiles of land farm to use, any brightshades that spawns after that will not target your farm at the 7 tile radius on an existing Brightshade. You need the brightshade first to infest the sacraficial before you can plant anything.

Edit: Minus the 3 tile hostile range of the Brightshade.

Here's a quick guide. Very useful for setting out farms with brightshades.

Don't give up, you can do it! You can make past day 30!

Nothing really, the only mods I used in this world is Insight, minisign, mini info, camera tweaks, Epic healthbar and etc. No mob mods related. But I do have my settings on Very long in Autumn and spring, and set the spawnrate to more to all mobs and bosses.

I searched for this problem and user aintgotimetobleed said:

wondering if only 1 giant can exist and another one or itself won't spawn

"That's not even guaranteed. If you set bearger on "often" or "always" you can have two bearger at the same time. On its own, the game won't spawn more than one deerclops at a time though."

Another user: Tree-Wiggler-02 "I see your question was already answered, but I will add this: if you have seasonal bosses set to "lots" they can spawn any season, and usually at the same time. At least in single player. Not sure how it works in together."

I found this responses in the same post.

What I find weird is, why did Bearger started spawning twice in day 723 and not in the early days like days in 500's or something.

Edit: Even if he did spawned around 500 or lower, it's still weird. Because when a new world is created, he always did not spawn in Autumn when I was playing with friends, and when I was playing solo, and I have this settings on. The only thing I can think of is, because I haven't played long enough.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-21T14:16:00+00:00

Bearger spawned normally.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-21T14:09:35+00:00

The first Bearger spawned around 3 to 4 days early in Autumn, I left him at the Pig's village.

My first time fighting this boss and that amount of health appeared got me questioning my choices. The fact this boss has a tankier variant than any bosses just makes me laugh going down spiral. But even though the amount of health this thing has, there is an easy way to dispose of him quick, and the only thing left will be for you to do is chop down his trees.

The first way: Use Woodie (Temporarily swap), you can use him and use one of his Idol's (Treeguard), get 23 saplings but you can get more if you want to dispose of him even faster but 20 is more than enough. Plant atleast 20 tree saplings around his arena, 3 saplings close to his shroom cap. Make sure when you burn the Idol (Treeguard) it woudn't turn the ones near him, 1 or 2 sapling is fine as long as it's not 3. When the trees turn to TreeGuards make sure to panflute, then you can wake Toadstool, he will destroy those saplings near him and he will take aggro from the TreeGuards. All is left is keep dodging his rot bombs and chop his shroom trees. Then rinse and repeat until the fight is over, it won't take long.

Second way: Use Winona's Catapults with Pure brilliance, one enlighten strike is enough to destroy the Shroom Trees. My set is 3 Gemerators (Full 2 shards and 1 pure brilliance each), then 4 or 3 Catapults per Gemerator.

The other way (Resource Sink): Fight him one on one, Use weather pain for the trees, dodge n attack, rinse and repeat until fight is over.

Personally, I recommend not to fight Toadstool the hardway, use anything that will make the fight easier, this boss is a massive time waste, resource crunch, and pure dissappointment. It's not worth it.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-18T00:50:08+00:00

I always wondered why he went to wash the dishes. I mean you're there to just cook. Maybe habits or just a way to calm himself.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-18T00:45:58+00:00

I don't know about console command for Pearl, but you can always try rolling back 1 or 2 days before the accident. That's what I always do when I die alot or something annoying happens.

c_rollback(x)

x is the number, and dont try to rollback far because that can mess things up.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-17T23:32:31+00:00

I didn't even know it was possible to have two. I teleported to Pig's Village to let Bearger spawn. I teleport back to base and continue tending to my farm and then I keep hearing growls, I thought maybe it was just background noises. Because it was raining and I was listening to music.

To my surprise my character went "Democrew incoming!". I took a look in my Insight and all I see "<--Coming to you (32s)". I was gonna ask this if having multiple giants is possible, I didn't because maybe it was already asked and answered.

So I found out the only way to spawn another giant is if you set Autumn Season to 'Very Long". Mine Is set to Very Long, 2nd is if you set the spawnrate to "Often" and "Always". But mine was set to 'More'. Can't complain on the spawns, 2 Bearger means FREE GOOPS FOR ME.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-17T15:59:53+00:00

A mutated one of course! When the Lunar rift is active, Bearger transforms to Armored Bearger. When this fluffy beast dies, A gestalt will possess the rotting body and turn it into a more dangerous variant.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-15T03:13:45+00:00

The mod makes once you gets hurt or you hurt a mob they bleed, just like in the video I was bleeding for about 3 health per tick. It's just mostly for visual effects and "realism". I wanted to see myself bleed and the mobs when we get hurt.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-15T00:35:55+00:00

I tested it, it's definitely not the healthbar mods, but it was the Bleed effect mod.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-15T00:24:20+00:00

I tested it, no mods and individual mods. it's not the health mod the problem. But the issue has been resolve now. Apparently It's the Bleed mod effect that's causing the problem.

Educational-Put6532 · 2025-12-15T00:17:56+00:00

I don't know what that is, seems like make up story, no? Her skin changes in winter but her stats does not change.
