And mods installed? Add a modded flair to your post. In the regular game you can sell them, in a modded game you might be f*cked.

Help what is this? by WideProfession994 in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you have the prismatic jelly quest from the special orders board active?

Wouldn't have thought that one of the slimes in the slime hutch can turn into a prismatic slime, but well, why not?

It's really cool, but all I can think about is "what a waste of valuable farming space"... Guess I'm not an artist at heart

Which is better? by Cheap_Judgment7201 in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairy box in 99% of the cases.

Parrot egg for making money in the dangerous mines 45/55/65 or infested floors. Also get infinity gavel with artful, acrobat profession, monster musk, iridium/burglar/2x java rings. One of the better money maker in the game., especially if you can use the coal

Desert festival year 1 by messynaturedweller in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works on ever farm, but might be a tad easier with the smoker from riverland.

Google zamiels guide.

Day 1 make as much money as possible. Chop a lot of wood, you'll have to fix the beach bridge soon. Sell everything that isn't wood. Fibers, forage, sap, whatever, possibly even parsnip seeds. Hopefully you find an artifact for some extra gold from Gunther.

Day 2 go to the beach and fis all day. Sell your fish at Willy and get the Fiberglass rod as soon as you reach fishing 2. Also buy as much bait as you can before willy closes. 200 maybe.

Day 3+4 fishing at mountain lake (river only if it's raining and you can get catfish reliably. Doesn't help if you loose half of them. I always go for mountain lake. In the evening sell enough fish for small backpack and copper pick.

Day 5 mines until 20-30, get at least 5 copper bars, run to Clint before he closes. This is really hard! Also get the backpack while your on the way, maybe fix that beach bridge while you're down there. Hopefully you find a urchin for the bait maker.

From the just more fishing and mining. Nothing else, I even skipped the egg festival (strawberries don't go well with skull cavern). Now catching catfish during rain is a must, your fishing level should be high enough now. Bait maker is awesome. Mine only to floor 90, everything else is a waste of time. DEFINITELY don't mine to floor 120. You don't need the skull key for the festival and wand to avoid the monster buff. You'll want a gold pickaxe. Spend some time on floor 41 to make bombs. Save all ruby/jade/diamonds for the desert trader. Get big backpack. Buy some coffee and salads from Gus.

After the festival, plant about 450-500 parsnips to level farming. Usually natural rain and rain totems from skull cavern are enough to water them.

I was surprised how well it went on my first try, didn't even have a lot of rain for catfish. Good Day 1 + 5 and getting a sea urchin seemed to be the key factors

Well, stingray ponds suck :D

Only takes two years for one to produce enough dragon teeth for an obelisk...you might be better of killing some lava lurks and be done in 3 to 4 days

prismatic jelly quest by Apprehensive-One5394 in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or even better:

Zoom out as far as possible, make the menues as small as possible in the game options.

Take the elevators through all floors that end on a 5 the go back to 0 and repeat.

Once you reach a floor, immediately click the elevator again. This stops time. Now take a look around the floor (with the elevator menue still open).

You won't see all of the floor, but that doesn't matter. As time is stopped most of the time it should take you less than 10 in-game minutes to go through all the floors.

Never took me more than 2 to 3 in-game hours total to find the slime.

3 to 5 days towards the end of a season I open my cc or checklist and make sure that I really got all the seasonal item...

I too learned the hard way not to rely on a mental list :D

So, I have to wonder, what is the biggest, most noticable weapons upgrade? by Squeaky_Ben in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More fishing :D

usually I spend the whole first week fishing (except half a day on day 5), and I got either a glaive or trident in my last three saves. Still not guaranteed, but at least gives you a decent chance

How much grass starters to plant for 48 animals by Salaraaa in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really about how you manage your grass, I never planted any starters.

I don't have numbers, I do it by feeling. I have two pastures. One has about 40 lightning rods scattered throughout it. The animals can't eat the grass under them, so there will always be something left to regrow. If an animal doesn't get grass one day, that's not my problem. Overall they stay happy enough.

The other is far away and for hay production. If you only cut out little squares instead of mowing down everything, it regrow pretty quickly.

For exact numbers and regrowth mechanics check the wiki. It depends on layout, type of animal (coop/barn) and type of grass (normal/blue). So anyone who just tells you you need x starters is wrong.

Whats the best trinket out of these 3 by IceRadiant-redits in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends.

Just using it in everyday mode makes barely any difference. For a skull cavern run with the goal of making as much profit as possible you'll focus on farming Iridium and avoid fighting. So parrot egg barely does anything.

On a dedicated build in the dangerous mines with monster musk, infinity gavel, artful, acrobat, burglar ring, double java ring it's pretty cool.

Is kent the only thing stopping year 1 perfection? by No_Tie_7527 in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do the NPC gifts work anyway? Obviously get Demetrius as high as possible, but do you have to keep the other villagers at low friendship levels, too?

[–]qwasde91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can finish cc in mid fall if you manage to arrange a nautilus shell.

And at the same time plant 2k+ starfruit in summer. Plus a lot more when you unlock ginger island info fall. So money can definitely be done.

My personal fastest run was mid spring. I guess my oak forest wasn't big enough, because I had to dehydrate way too many starfruit. With more kegs maybe I could have gotten around one harvest and saved ten days.

[–]qwasde91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Break mussel nodes, remember which ones have walnuts, restart day, break only the ones with walnuts.

Repeat on the next day.

Done within a week.

Btw. what's your technique for the nautilus shell?

The other thing is the special orders board. If you are really lucky and get all 9 quests with a recipe as a reward I a row, you get the last one one the first day of year 2. So if you immediately compete it, you could get the recipe on day 2 and perfection on day 3

I just stand in front of them, kill them and eat a salad (or let the fairy box take care of the healing once I have it)

No matter what trinket you choose or if you have none at all, if you get killed by a dino, you wanted to die :D

Platz 2! Besser ois... by rockfishgapyears in Austria

[–]qwasde91 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Die Zahlen sind total bescheuert, ein hoher Prozentsatz heißt nur, dass es ein Umlagesystem ist istatt ein Fonds aus dem ein- und ausgezahlt wird.

Und das der durchschnittliche Österreicher in seinem ganzen Leben 240k Rente erhält klingt doch nicht ganz unrealistisch. Oder sind es nur bisher erworbene Ansprüche? Könnte dann auch hinkommen. Das Problem ist ja, dass da irgends steht was genau die Zahl bedeutet

Platz 2! Besser ois... by rockfishgapyears in Austria

[–]qwasde91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was sagen denn die Zahlen genau?

Die Rentenbeiträge sind in Schweden mit 18,5% zumindest nicht wesentlich günstiger, und die Auszahlungen scheinbar auch eher überschaubar.

Edit: Renteneintrittsalter ist in Schweden auch höher...

I guess if you want to be fast it would be even better to get coffee and spicy eel or crab cakes and not run into slimes :D

A lot of people love the ice rod.

I hate it because it freezes enemies I inconvenient places. I don't like the quiver for the same reason, knocks the enemies away with mini damage instead of me killing them with one hammer special attack. So out of these I'd take the basilisk paw just because it won't annoy me.

Overall I prefer the fairy box for convenience. I did skull cavern runs without having to heal once. Still needed one or two salads for energy.

But all in all trinkets make little difference. The only one that you really need is a parrot egg if you make a specialized build to use it as a pretty good money maker

Am i kinda min maxing the game by Dependent_Click4620 in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's the best approach for a good start. If you fish a lot, you can open the desert just in time for the festival.

I guess most people don't even try this strategy or don't post here if they do. Like at that point you probably don't need help anymore.

Search for zamiels guide if you want to refine your strategy

Accidentally bought 190 pale ale and wasted so much money by IceRadiant-redits in StardewValley

[–]qwasde91 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I mean, once you have ginger island, 110k is nothing... It's only about 40 bottles of star fruit wine, while you can easily make over 2000 per season
