oh my gosh AGREED! it takes up so much space in the inventory and switching to it if there’s a shimmering space in the water sucks, so if it was a wallet item you could just walk up to it pan and be done. oh my gosh i wish it was a wallet item now
that's such a good point lol. I carry my copper pan on me all the time just bc i want to get SOME use out of it, but I always keep it a far corner of my inventory, so by the time I get it into my main bar, the panning spot is gone
Can we do something with the community center? Like after you complete it you never enter it again. Maybe Gus could give you meals that he is preparing there when you talk to him? You could dye things in the art room if you can't enter Emily's house or you aren't good enough friends with her. You could get a small amount of coal from the boiler room, like you can get iridium from the statue of perfection. The fish tank could show you what fish are available in the season.
@@SnyperMK2000JclL Let's face it, the Master Sword is basically a master scythe in most Zelda games, so why not show its true purpose in Stardew Valley, which has the MOST satisfying grass-cutting in any game.
Crab pots yes, absolutely. He just absolutely ignored the recycling machine and how you can get refined quartz from the CDs and glasses without smelting quartz. For how much he went over not wanting to waste coal you think he'd be all for having a way to save some. I get so much refined quartz that I use crystal paths for pretty much my entire farm. But I don't use geode crusher, I agree that one needs to be buffed.
Yeah when he said no one sells spring onions I was nervous because I harvest and sell them when I have not much else to do in spring :( I like the journey and the extra cash. You pick quite a few so their low sell price makes sense to me
I can't say much about crab pots, but Geode Crushers are far from useless. It costs less to use coal for them than to have Clint break them, and you can use the crushers ANY TIME, not just before 4 PM. Only really visit Clint for Artifact Troves now
I feel like you’re missing the potential of the bee house-with the artisan perk, fairy rose honey is closer to a thousand gold, and if you fill your Ginger Island farm with bee houses and fairy roses, it’s a solid form of passive income. Even only filling part of your Ginger Island farm is worth it, as it will never need maintenance once you set it up
☝️Convenience matters more in the late game. Why bother kegging ancient fruit when you can just chuck Fairy rose honey straight to the bin. Easy money every 4 days, all year round.
I was SO excited to complete the fish tank bundle because I thought there'd be an area behind the boulder where you could catch new fish :( but no it's just a pan
I thoight the "glittering rock" referred to the rock in the mines that blocks off the Dwarf. Was so shocked when I **finally** finished the fish tank (didn't used to fish much), and that wasn't it. 😅
you know, here's an idea, make the legendary fish not be a 1 off. i know we got the sons of the legendary fishes, but its not the same thing, also, give us a final legendary fish that is only catchable after you catch every other fish.
I picked the forest farm which has an abundance of hardwood so I had a worm bin and crab pots setup on my farm right near my crops. That makes it easy to spend 10 minutes to get a bunch of junk fish to make sashimi. Most of the town has it as a liked gift so I can just hand out stacks of sashimi while passing through town. Here, Pierre, you like this week old snail sashimi, don't you?
I do the same! I also have two recycling machines at my worm bin crab pot setup so all the trash I get can be turned into useful items like quartz or cloth. The quartz is especially great cause turning trash into quartz for sprinklers is WAY better than melting it which uses coal
And it is sometimes used with fairy roses in ginger island, since there flowers don't wither, and in that case they almost rival ancient fruit in profits
@@Draculaura100Monster OMG i never thought of it. started a multiplayer farm and we get closer and closer to the island and still have no ancient seed. We will just do that till then! Thanks a lot, that is amazing
that's a cool idea, make it part of the wallet that lets you interact with the shimering waters. also, instead of the current rewards for using it, its basically a free fishing treasure chest.
I never bother getting the Golden Scythe anymore. I don't want to change the mines when I'm farming coal and except for Fall 28, I like to leave clumps of grass when I do some thinning out to make hay, so it can grow back easily.
@@medic-ez9fo omg making it have it where you can harvest trellis crops would be soo good. Like instead of using a Juninho hut to get out of reach trellis crops you could use the scythe
I mean most people use the geode crusher as a glitch exploiter, so when you crack a prismatic shards, or iridium or whatever, you can just toss a geode in the crusher and get a second drop guaranteed of the same thing clint broke out of it
@@AgentSteffi the geode crusher, when used, outputs the last thing you got from a geode at Clints. If you got a prismatic shard last, you could get a second one.
@@AgentSteffi when you are using clint to break geodes, if you stop, and quickly put the same type of geode in the geode crusher and wait till it finishes, without breaking any more with clint, you will get the same item from the geode crusher as the last item you got from clint using that same geode. The first time atleast. So you put a geode crusher in his shop off to the side where he cant walk into it, then if you get say an iridium ore or prismatic shard drop, you exit immediately from clint's menu, take that same geode type, and put it in the crusher and wait till its opened and tada, two prismatics or double ore.
the problem is, concerned ape heavily dislikes automation for some reason, i respect the guy, but he thinks we need to swamp out 1 item at a time manualy everytime to enjoy the game... even at late game when you were supposed to be rich and floundering money around.
Panning is actually pretty useful as is when you think about getting the lucky ring by it but artifacts would be great and make it actually worth to carry around
when I first got it, I was really excited because I hate mining (because I hate fighting) therefore only a higher chance of iridium ore would have been a game changer for me!
I know I'm a year late, but I got my lucky ring on my first playthrough before floor 20 in the regular mines, then another 2 from skull cavern crates. I had no idea it's considered rare
I love the fact that, right now, every single item you mentioned "no player uses" is an item I have on my game in the double-digits. I have 10 crabpots in every water region, I have four worms bins on my farm (for the crabpots, you understand) and I have 15 geodecrushers in my crafting area lmao. I haven't finished the video yet but I'm pretty sure this is going to continue
@@SeanieDew Haha, I only have three bins! I have plenty of hardwood and millions of gold, but now I have 999 bait equipped on my iridium rod. Which is... pointless, admittedly. But still. :)
My main idea for the bee houses would be to make mead from flower honey affect the end price, like wines are. Sadly, fairy rose honey still makes regular default mead in the keg. You lose money from that exchange.
I dont have problems with honey, but men the mead is soo underwhelming, i mean it the only artisan good that actualy make you lose money. Just make it work like juice or ever wine
Yeah, if wild honey sells for 100g, and mead sells for 200g (makes sense), then certain flower honeys should sell for much more than that. As it stands only fairy rose honey is worth selling as is.
I figured mead was just there to be a loved item by willy that's easier to continuously get than catfish or sturgeon without having to build a fish pond.
other artisan goods can make you lose money too, like salmonberry/blackberry wine when you have botanist + bears knowledge, or truffle oil when you have botanist without the artisan profession
@@eden3669 Does anybody know which fruits are supposed to go as jam and which are wine? I have chests of wine and jelly of the same items trying to compare them in hopes of remembering which one goes where. I was sooo pissed when I put 5 blackberries in the keg to get less value lol. I now always keep them in my jam jars lol
@@PanicLedisko any fruit with a base price of 50 or less is strictly better to turn into jam, since jam is (price*2) + 50 while wine is price*3, and you can check the base price in the collections tab its important to note that blackberries have a base price of _20_, bear's knowledge isnt included personally i reserve wine for the most valuable fruits i have (starfruit and ancient fruit), since the limiter for me is the number of kegs i have for fruits above 50, they're more valuable as wine, but take much longer to process as wine, so whether you want wine or jam depends on if the limiting factor is the number of fruit or how fast you can process it, as well as how much extra you'd get by making wine there are pages on the wiki talking about stuff like this in depth
Adding a new Bee House building from Robin where Flowers can grow year-round and place beehives, I would actually use it. It just uses up a lot of space and this would help
also, I would improve the trains! I always run up there when I get the notification and most times you get nothing, a few times I’ve gotten a couple geodes, rocks, coal… how fun would it be if you actually got great stuff! especially I wish the Christmas train gave you awesome presents :) great vid!
I love the worm bin when I pair with Automate, a chest, a recycler and a massive army of crab pots 👀 Automate for the geode crusher too, paired with a couple other machines. Put the beehouses on Ginger Island, across the river from your farm.
mate if youre using automate, the worm bin is not the way, the way is to place crab pots all along every waterline, and put a chest someplace it doesnt get wrecked. and use the luremaster profession. FREE BAIT EVERYDAY. and recycling the trash gives you coal, cloth, wood, stone, iron!!! all stuff youll use(coal at least)
Same. I usually end up with a crab pot empire. Nets me a solid amount with zero upkeep. Bonus points for doing this in multiplayer cause you can get the increased sell price AND baitless.
@@ishanchegu yup. By the time I get the lure master profession that worm bin gets hooked up to the system in my crafting area. Stockpile that bait for when I'm chasing legendaries... Or more likely that stupid lava eel
And please just make the worm bin works like in real life. You can add some cheap crops or forages, and you get in return 3-2 wild bait in a process that would take 20 minutes
Bee Houses are actually super OP on Ginger Island. Flowers dont ever decay so you can just plop down a few strategically placed Fairy Roses and fill the whole place with Bees and you get just so much honey
I feel like the copper pan should be able to be upgraded to iridium (it could start as just the pan) so it doesnt look weird in your inventory, and THE GOLDEN SCYTHE. it looks so weird when all of my tools are iridium and i have the infinity gavel which is purple as well, i think when you get to the end of the quarry mine you should just get an iridium scythe, or get the golden scythe that can from then on be upgraded to iridium
I actually love bee houses, I use them on ginger island with like 5 fairy roses on the other side of the farm where you have very small amount of room to plant crops, makes me like 85k every 4 days, which isn't that bad.
I'd love to see bees flying around my bee houses! In my perfection file I have a few fairy roses on ginger island that produce honey all year round, it's pretty nice
me who has multiple crab pots in the sewers, 3 geode crushers in the mine, a worm bin on ginger island, and carried the copper pan religiously on my head for a while:
The worm bin is honestly not bad, I think I got one for a request or the CC. I would just take bait out everyday and have hundreds of bait stocked up. Makes crab pots and randomly fishing more efficient. Can recommend having at least one.
@@tobb7006 TL;DR: you'll have plenty of time to mine and stuff. You just need to plan ahead your first spring since money has a snowballing effect early on. Fishing can bring you a decent amount of money your first weeks. Tipically you fish until you pass out. Be broke and be sure you level up a skill so you don't lose any money and you're rested for the following day (you don't get energy penalty if that night you leveled up a skill). Day 5 you mine to floor 15-25 depending on luck. Get 45 copper ore so you can craft a furnace and smelt 5 copper bars on day 6. upgrade pickaxe that same day. Day 6-7 keep fishing. Days 8-9 try to reach floor 40 and get 25 iron ore. Day 9-10 upgrade pickaxe. Fund the upgrades with profits from fishing. Keep Chubs for energy (I plant 215 potatoes on day 6 to reach level 6 farming Spring 12, I really need that energy). If you need wood, just cut enough to meet your needs, normally it's a chest, but don't cut the stump unless you need the spot it's occupying. Stumps are not worth the energy this early on and they spawn tree seeds around them. Rainy days fish at Cindersap Forest for those Catfish, they can be hard to catch, but they are worth a lot. Always go for bubbles and treasure chests and try to get perfect catches (double xp), you'll be leveling up your fishing skill without even noticing.
Bait is 5G per from Willy. When I play I literally just buy 200 bait from Willy, don't care about it for like 2 seasons, and then repeat. Or even if you didn't want to buy it, just go to level 15 in the mines and kill bugs. Using the burglar ring gets you 2 bug meat, or 10 bait, almost every kill.
I used the worm generator Crafted two, got bait everyday and eventually got 999 through some years. Never had to buy any bait even tho I used to fish. It's sad it only produces normal bait tho
Ok some bones to pick I have crab pots and I find them incredibly useful especially paired with the worm maker and a recycle machine. You can get quite a bit of coal out of it. Also, of all the things in the wallet the +1 to luck is by far the better item over spring farking onions. Oh, speaking of disgusting did you know you have little, tiny bugs that live in your eyelashes. Bet you didn't and now you do, and I hope you're as disgusted by it as the spring onion bugs, you're welcome. And lastly ALEX is the hardest NPC to befriend by far. He only has 2 late game cookable items that he loves. Any liked items are weak at best for him. Anyway, thanks for letting me pick those bones. I really like some of your ideas for upgrading underwhelming items in SDV. Thanks for all the hard work that went into this video.
Do you guys have the prospector perk? Cause that changes coal drop rate to double, but most people go for excavator in order to get more omnigeodes for dessert trader.
@@maysee2515 Picked a Gemologist perk way back when, never had an issue with coal; if anything, there's always too much of it. Didn’t even had to buy it from Clint, not once. Maybe it's cause I'm not the type of player to min-max a farm with millions of kegs tho.
Great vid! 12:14 I find it annoying to hear the shimmering lights sound from water bodies all over the game - I hear them a lot and don't see them, plus I don't use the pan because I don't have the space, time, or patience for it. Wish that sound happened only if you had the pan equipped.
"No one has ever used the geode crusher" I mean haboo used it in the 24 hour perfection speedrun ... (because you place multiple geode crushers and then it's fast)
First off, these are fantastic and really well thought out ideas, it was really interesting hearing your thoughts on this! On the note of worm bins and crab pots, I actually made and used a ton of them for the first time recently. I was playing a super heavily modded Stardew and I had the Automate mod which lets you insert and extract items from machines into chests, and using a bunch of worm bins and crab pots you can sustain infinite bait for the crab pots and just generate free stuff that automatically gets collected into a chest without you doing anything. I found it was great for getting the Fish part of higher level fertilizer crafts. But yeah, they could use some tweaking, the cost of both is nuts, and the rewards are lacking in the extreme. I loved your idea for unique items that add bobber buff effects that could stack with food, that’s a fantastic idea. I definitely agree that panning needs to be changed massively. It’s so disappointing to unlock it for a community bundle - the others are mostly big neat unlocks like the desert which is the gateway to lategame stuff or mine carts which are insanely useful or even the quarry which is less useful but still nice. Panning is just useless and annoying. I think making the pan upgradeable like your normal tools would be a good start. Maybe make higher levels catch more stuff? But definitely massively increase the number and frequency of panning spots, and giving panning access to fishing treasure chest loot is a good idea too.
why even bother with worm bins? 1k bait is only 5k. at worst(unless you catch trash), you will more than pay for each one you use buy multiple times its value. seriously, you are basically sacrificing space to get 25g(at most) of worth.
What I usually do with honey is I plant a few fairy roses on the patches of dirt around the pond in the ginger island farm area. You can usually get around 200+ beeboxes there which is around 200k every 4 days year round with the artisan buff.
Me, someone who is using the Automate mod and has crafted multiple worm bins and geode crushers: "Yeah, why would anyone craft those machines?" *laughs nervously*
The crab pots and worm bin being cheaper would be nice but they are not useless if you have the automation mod. This mod lets you place a chest down adjacent to a machine and will auto fill and empty the machine much like how most people want hoppers to work. However it will also work with strings of adjacent machine ie you put 5 crab pots in the water all touching each other than put a chest on the ground right next to one of the pots. Anything in the pots transfers to the chest automatically and any bait in the chest transfers to the pots. Next adjacent to the chest you place a recycler and a wormbin. Now the worm bin make 5 bait they transfer to the chest then to the pots. What the pots catch transfers to the chest with any trash items transferring from there to the recycler. Final the recycler products transfer to the chest. This all happens automatically so you just come back once a week or even once a season and clean out all you goodies from the chest
Actually the geode crasher is pretty good bevause of a bug that makes the first geode you crash in it after opening a geode at clint the same item you got from the geode opend at clint so if you get a prismatic shard from a geode and have ageode crasher you will get 2 prismatic shards
If an item should rely on unintended 'feature' to make it viable, then that item should be buffed from the start. I never used that bug. Getting prismatic shards is easier than getting pearls. Max luck is the key. Even more with Statue of True Perfection.
or for spring onions: they could give better health/ energy boosts or some kind of speed/foraging buff so people would have more reason to venture down to pick them in the late game
I would love to dye the Slime Hutch, maybe a nice pink or a slimy green. Upgrading the copper pan should unlock better lootable items, like copper gives ores and once you reach iridium you'll have a higher chance for rare artifacts found in the respective waters you panned in.
The copper pan should be upgradeable, like the other tools. Also, each tool should have a special unique item "upgrade", like the Golden Scythe. The pick and the axe could have a single pickaxe unique item that lets you replace both in your inventory, for example. Each is the reward at the end of a special event, be that a dungeon, or some other method.
You know what's great? Having the automate mod. I have 2 worm bins feeding into 4 crab pots feeding into a chest connected to a couple recycling machines and I love it XD
I love the worm bin. I have 2 next to my stable and put 4-10 bait in my fishing pole every morning before I hop on my steed and ride off. I have like 600 bait in my fishing pole now
Kinda wish you mentioned the shashimi trick with lower level fish items like the ones from crab pots; iirc, shashimi sells for 110, which significantly increases gains
The copper pan should be upgradeable (iron, gold, iridium) with each upgrade increasing the likelihood of panning a item from the fishing chest loot table. Also fishing skill level should also factor into this calculation so there is more of a reason to finish getting to level 10 fishing.
Crab pots are good item while they are pricey remember that they give u items for almost free (and is free if u take perk in fishing) and makes worm bin useful. Also you forget that one of the best sources of coal is combo of crab pot + recycling bin. Spring onions are good source of gold for first spring as you get your first gold for seeds from them. Oh I will add that crab pots are great source of fishing xp as You don t have to waste stamina on them and can collect them at the start of each day when shops and homes are closed.
Haven't played in awhile so this might have been updated but, the shimmering lights for the copper pan can be common on some day. The problem is they are in predetermined areas and disappear quickly so if you're not in the right area when one spawns it will be missed or if you are on the correct screen odds are you will not find it in time to use the pan.Even if you are lucky enough to actually see one it could spawn in an inaccessible area. A good upgrade for it would be to have the shimmering spots act more like artifact spots. I like to let them pile up and just do a loop around town every three days or so to pick them all up.
Didnt know Geode Crusher was considered that horrible. On my current very casual playthrough I have a bunch of them standing around where I just put all my Geodes from my day of mining in, I dont really wait for them to finish, I just put them in in the evening, take them out in the morning, and if I have more geodes left than I have crushers I just put them in in the morning as well before going on my daily grind. Saves me some time that Id spent waiting for Clint, its not like I need whatever the crushers spew out immediately.
I keep one geode crusher at Clint’s because there’s a glitch where if you crack open a geode you’ll get the exact same item if you put another geode in the crusher right after. Every once in a while I’ll crack a ton of omni geodes until I get a prismatic shard and then once I do I immediately use the geode crusher and without fail will get another prismatic shard
Automate mod makes a lot of those things actully useful. Like crab pots and worm bins together with trash processor make a full-afk farm making useful stuff.
It's interesting to watch this after 1.6, because some of these things have actually changed! Not in the specific ways outlined in this video, but in some similar ways
Geode Crushers are useful in that they can dupe whatever came out of the last geode that Clint broke open. It's helpful for getting multiple Prismatic Shards and iridium ore in the early and mid game when those things are hard to come by. Combine that with the knowledge you get from the Stardew Predictor website and you can pick and choose any mineral or artifact in the game and have multiples of it.
early to mid, except your best chance to get it is in fall, and probably will either not get it at first, or only get it by winter. by that point you will probably already have unlocked the desert so iridium is easy to come by.
The geode crusher has one significant use. It gives you the last thing that Clint cracked for you. So you Clint cracks open a prismatic shard, and you then put the same type of geode into the crusher, you will get another prismatic shard.
That's the reason I'm using automate. A lot of the items are nice to have if you can just set them up and forget about them until you check the chest for all the things they produced. Like when I needed another dwarf computer for the farm computer I just dumped some of my stockpile magma geodes and coal into a chest attached to one and came back a few days later to one ready in the chest. Worm bins used to be alright with this before the wild bait buff, giving them at least a low chance of producing wild bait would be huge.
What abt oil makers? They turn truffles into truffle oil and corn, sunflowers and sunflower seeds into oil. I have the Artisan and Botanist Perk and also a Barn with 4 pigs. I have 1 oil maker bc of a quest which lewis wanted a bottle of truffle oil. After which I realised that truffles at iridium quality bc of botanist perk sold for 1250g each while truffle oil goes for 1491g or smthing like and oil is kinda useless since you buy them from pierre for 200g. THE MAIN POINT is that to craft one,you need 50 slime, 20 HARDWOOD and a gold bar. Hence i think their useless at any point of the game whether its mid or late game bc their useless and 20 HARDWOOD (PS: If there are any error pls tell me in the replies or if there are any good reasons for these stupid oil makers)
I think (not 100% sure yet) I found I use for the worm bin, granted you need a mod. More specifically the automate mod which will automate some processes using chests and other things like that. My thought is to place the crab pots chaining them up, then place a worm bin touching/closest tile to the pots than place a chest the same way. I assume it would work but I'd have to test it first
Sean I really enjoy how you manage to make your videos differ from your streams. I watch almost every stream but still find your videos so enjoyable because they never feel repetitive:)
6:04 I did once it was Salmonberry or Blackberry Season. I sold half of what I gathered and ate the rest. I did that until I was able to make Algae Soup. It is the only thing I eat in the mines unless I find something better that isn't a Loved or Liked Gift. 12:28 Pretty sure this mainly applies to those capable of surviving the Desert Mine. I cannot so I don't go in. I don't even visit the Desert unless it's Saturday or Wednesday.
Hey, Seanie! Really enjoyed your vid 🙂. Maybe a fun crab pot mod will come out! In my experience, bee houses can be helpful for making gold, particularly on ginger island. Even without the artisan perk and flower buffs, a bee house generates 25g/day. Not bad for early game! On ginger island, with the artisan perk, a fairy rose bee house can bring in 238g/day all year long. Thanks for reading!
I love the idea of the beehives improving crop growth. It would also be great for it to improve the chance of high quality crops. The worm bin could also provide compost/fertilizer to improve crops as well.
I use worm bins and crab pots every playthrough.. I have 10 crab pots on the farm to produce 10 fish that I "cook" into sashimi (Linus friendship recipe) and 5 worm bins to produce more than enough bait to "feed" the crab pots.. Just be sure to get the crab pot related perks including the one that prevents catching trash items (Mariner?).. The reason for going for "always catch fish" perk instead of "crab pots never need bait" is 2-fold.. 1) Every crab pot filled is guaranteed fish, which means sashimi.. 2) While holding bait, your only interaction with crab pots is to fill them, which prevents loss of time and inconvenience of picking up crab pots accidentally.. Sashimi is a very easy to craft food recipe (literally ANY fish).. You only need a kitchen and about 2-4 hearts with Linus to get the recipe.. Since sashimi does not provide any buffs, it will never override any food buffs that are harder to craft.. While it is only marginally better than iridium quality Salmonberry and Blackberry, you can mass produce it all year round instead of waiting for the small window in each year to run around the entire map to find them.. Which, by the way, is another boon in itself since you don't need to hunt down numerous locations across the entire map (that may or may not even have a berry to harvest) to get the most each year..
Crab Pots and Worm Bins becomes 100x more worthwhile when using the automate mod. Hook them up to a chest and a recycling machine and get passive income.
The copper pan should be a wallet item, i think itd make panning infinitely better
oh my gosh AGREED! it takes up so much space in the inventory and switching to it if there’s a shimmering space in the water sucks, so if it was a wallet item you could just walk up to it pan and be done. oh my gosh i wish it was a wallet item now
Oh that’d be awesome
that's such a good point lol. I carry my copper pan on me all the time just bc i want to get SOME use out of it, but I always keep it a far corner of my inventory, so by the time I get it into my main bar, the panning spot is gone
I just keep it on my head lmao
Isn't that why you can have it as hat ?
Can we do something with the community center? Like after you complete it you never enter it again. Maybe Gus could give you meals that he is preparing there when you talk to him? You could dye things in the art room if you can't enter Emily's house or you aren't good enough friends with her. You could get a small amount of coal from the boiler room, like you can get iridium from the statue of perfection. The fish tank could show you what fish are available in the season.
I would love to see the community center become more lively or useful after completion
Exacly becouse now it's kinda sad i completed it and myself and all of the npc not once step foot in there again.
It would also be another reason to choose comunity over Joja. Now its just the "right thing to do" which to me feels kinda lazy
these are all insanely good ideas what the heck
The characters do 'use' the center.
The scythe should also be iridium instead of gold… it just looks weird
i have a mod specifically to change the scythe color lmao
Or upgradable to iridium and allow a spin swipe that makes it cut all around you. Just for those Hiyah! moments xD

*me staring at my shed of geode crushers and picking up my crab pots*
I thought I was the only one hehe
Crab pots yes, absolutely. He just absolutely ignored the recycling machine and how you can get refined quartz from the CDs and glasses without smelting quartz. For how much he went over not wanting to waste coal you think he'd be all for having a way to save some. I get so much refined quartz that I use crystal paths for pretty much my entire farm.
But I don't use geode crusher, I agree that one needs to be buffed.
Yeah when he said no one sells spring onions I was nervous because I harvest and sell them when I have not much else to do in spring :( I like the journey and the extra cash. You pick quite a few so their low sell price makes sense to me
I have and still use my geode crusher and crab pots
I can't say much about crab pots, but Geode Crushers are far from useless. It costs less to use coal for them than to have Clint break them, and you can use the crushers ANY TIME, not just before 4 PM. Only really visit Clint for Artifact Troves now
I feel like you’re missing the potential of the bee house-with the artisan perk, fairy rose honey is closer to a thousand gold, and if you fill your Ginger Island farm with bee houses and fairy roses, it’s a solid form of passive income. Even only filling part of your Ginger Island farm is worth it, as it will never need maintenance once you set it up
☝️Convenience matters more in the late game. Why bother kegging ancient fruit when you can just chuck Fairy rose honey straight to the bin. Easy money every 4 days, all year round.
I make soooooo much money with beehives. I love the passive income.
And no need to harvest the flowers every time too! Bee houses are amazing, + you can make mead
I was SO excited to complete the fish tank bundle because I thought there'd be an area behind the boulder where you could catch new fish :( but no it's just a pan
I thoight the "glittering rock" referred to the rock in the mines that blocks off the Dwarf. Was so shocked when I **finally** finished the fish tank (didn't used to fish much), and that wasn't it. 😅

I picked the forest farm which has an abundance of hardwood so I had a worm bin and crab pots setup on my farm right near my crops. That makes it easy to spend 10 minutes to get a bunch of junk fish to make sashimi. Most of the town has it as a liked gift so I can just hand out stacks of sashimi while passing through town.
Here, Pierre, you like this week old snail sashimi, don't you?
I do the same! I also have two recycling machines at my worm bin crab pot setup so all the trash I get can be turned into useful items like quartz or cloth. The quartz is especially great cause turning trash into quartz for sprinklers is WAY better than melting it which uses coal
give pufferfish sashimi to Pierre, he wouldn't know 😈
Bee house ideas are elite
You're right, i like it.
I think they should be woriking with fruit trees as well (as they do in nature)
I mean... for the bee house, you can just not harvest the flower 😅 that's what most people do I believe, so I don't think it is a "broken" item
And it is sometimes used with fairy roses in ginger island, since there flowers don't wither, and in that case they almost rival ancient fruit in profits
Yeah once you got ginger island just plant a fairy rose and fill it whit bee houses
@@Draculaura100Monster Especially since you can plant the fairy rose in the ginger-spawning spaces and use a bunch of beehouses for almost no farmland
Yeah I fill the left side of the river on ginger island with fairy roses and bee houses
@@Draculaura100Monster OMG i never thought of it. started a multiplayer farm and we get closer and closer to the island and still have no ancient seed. We will just do that till then! Thanks a lot, that is amazing
i think the spring onion mastery should stay the same, but you get the cutscene super early in the game. maybe 2 hearts on both jazz and vincent.
even then, getting 2 hearts before the end of spring is hard
@@famus_tem8351nah, just give em flowers and talk to them everyday
Jas: upset about Vincent killing spring onion bugs
Also Jas: don't tell Aunt Marnie I fed a crayfish to one of the cows 😅😅😅
The copper pan should be part of the wallet. I never have it on me when I see the shimmering lights because of how rare it is lol
that's a cool idea, make it part of the wallet that lets you interact with the shimering waters. also, instead of the current rewards for using it, its basically a free fishing treasure chest.
Golden scythe should be upgradable or another cut scene route to find just to keep it even with other tools
Iridium scythe could have a big radius, the might of the galaxy dagger, and you can harvest any crops with it
I never bother getting the Golden Scythe anymore. I don't want to change the mines when I'm farming coal and except for Fall 28, I like to leave clumps of grass when I do some thinning out to make hay, so it can grow back easily.
@@medic-ez9fo omg making it have it where you can harvest trellis crops would be soo good. Like instead of using a Juninho hut to get out of reach trellis crops you could use the scythe
@@LaBlueStateGirl the golden scythe gets you so much more hay than the standard scythe does though the difference is honestly insane
@@katelynn1532 hmmm, I didn't know that. I'm gonna have to try that now.
I mean most people use the geode crusher as a glitch exploiter, so when you crack a prismatic shards, or iridium or whatever, you can just toss a geode in the crusher and get a second drop guaranteed of the same thing clint broke out of it
There is the real use for it!
wait, what, how? could you please explain
@@AgentSteffi the geode crusher, when used, outputs the last thing you got from a geode at Clints. If you got a prismatic shard last, you could get a second one.
@@hanmadesoup oh good to know, thanks!
@@AgentSteffi when you are using clint to break geodes, if you stop, and quickly put the same type of geode in the geode crusher and wait till it finishes, without breaking any more with clint, you will get the same item from the geode crusher as the last item you got from clint using that same geode. The first time atleast. So you put a geode crusher in his shop off to the side where he cant walk into it, then if you get say an iridium ore or prismatic shard drop, you exit immediately from clint's menu, take that same geode type, and put it in the crusher and wait till its opened and tada, two prismatics or double ore.
The hopper basically just needs to be automate but vanilla Honestly.
the problem is, concerned ape heavily dislikes automation for some reason, i respect the guy, but he thinks we need to swamp out 1 item at a time manualy everytime to enjoy the game... even at late game when you were supposed to be rich and floundering money around.
Panning is actually pretty useful as is when you think about getting the lucky ring by it but artifacts would be great and make it actually worth to carry around
I got my lucky ring by accident when I was in the skull cavern so panning is pretty useless to me now ☹️
@@lornamulqueen4742 First one was like that for me, then i got a second one when I was trying to fill the island museum!
when I first got it, I was really excited because I hate mining (because I hate fighting) therefore only a higher chance of iridium ore would have been a game changer for me!
I know I'm a year late, but I got my lucky ring on my first playthrough before floor 20 in the regular mines, then another 2 from skull cavern crates. I had no idea it's considered rare
I love the fact that, right now, every single item you mentioned "no player uses" is an item I have on my game in the double-digits. I have 10 crabpots in every water region, I have four worms bins on my farm (for the crabpots, you understand) and I have 15 geodecrushers in my crafting area lmao. I haven't finished the video yet but I'm pretty sure this is going to continue
I feel like that's the thing about those items, you have to have so many of them to make it worth it *shrug*
@@PanicLedisko Right, because I'm going to get rich from one ancient fruit plant and a single keg.
Watching this made me interested in seeing a Spring Onion Mastery speedrun... a relatively difficult speedrun for little gain 👀
I always thought the pan should be a wallet item so you always have it on you but it doesn't take up inventory. I'd actually use it
Me, watching this video while playing and checking my worm bins: oh.
THATS SO MUCH HARDWOOD
@@SeanieDew Haha, I only have three bins! I have plenty of hardwood and millions of gold, but now I have 999 bait equipped on my iridium rod. Which is... pointless, admittedly. But still. :)
@@laurenraubaugh9542 I have 6 bins 👀
Same lmao. Theyre actually really good
to be fair, I crafted two worm bins in my stardew valley playtime, because I have two farms aiming for perfection ~
My main idea for the bee houses would be to make mead from flower honey affect the end price, like wines are. Sadly, fairy rose honey still makes regular default mead in the keg. You lose money from that exchange.
I dont have problems with honey, but men the mead is soo underwhelming, i mean it the only artisan good that actualy make you lose money. Just make it work like juice or ever wine
Yeah, if wild honey sells for 100g, and mead sells for 200g (makes sense), then certain flower honeys should sell for much more than that. As it stands only fairy rose honey is worth selling as is.
I figured mead was just there to be a loved item by willy that's easier to continuously get than catfish or sturgeon without having to build a fish pond.
other artisan goods can make you lose money too, like salmonberry/blackberry wine when you have botanist + bears knowledge, or truffle oil when you have botanist without the artisan profession
@@eden3669 Does anybody know which fruits are supposed to go as jam and which are wine? I have chests of wine and jelly of the same items trying to compare them in hopes of remembering which one goes where. I was sooo pissed when I put 5 blackberries in the keg to get less value lol. I now always keep them in my jam jars lol
@@PanicLedisko any fruit with a base price of 50 or less is strictly better to turn into jam, since jam is (price*2) + 50 while wine is price*3, and you can check the base price in the collections tab
its important to note that blackberries have a base price of _20_, bear's knowledge isnt included
personally i reserve wine for the most valuable fruits i have (starfruit and ancient fruit), since the limiter for me is the number of kegs i have
for fruits above 50, they're more valuable as wine, but take much longer to process as wine, so whether you want wine or jam depends on if the limiting factor is the number of fruit or how fast you can process it, as well as how much extra you'd get by making wine
there are pages on the wiki talking about stuff like this in depth
The flower honey you should be able to make into more valuable mead. Since it’s only worth making mead with wild honey iirc
i feel like bee houses should gain bonus similar to fruit trees, but instead of each year, its each season they are out.
I thought crab pots was where really good, as you’d use the fish for fertilizer or cooking, then use the trash in recyclers for easy materials
Adding a new Bee House building from Robin where Flowers can grow year-round and place beehives, I would actually use it. It just uses up a lot of space and this would help
also, I would improve the trains! I always run up there when I get the notification and most times you get nothing, a few times I’ve gotten a couple geodes, rocks, coal… how fun would it be if you actually got great stuff! especially I wish the Christmas train gave you awesome presents :) great vid!
I love the worm bin when I pair with Automate, a chest, a recycler and a massive army of crab pots 👀
Automate for the geode crusher too, paired with a couple other machines.
Put the beehouses on Ginger Island, across the river from your farm.
mate if youre using automate, the worm bin is not the way, the way is to place crab pots all along every waterline, and put a chest someplace it doesnt get wrecked. and use the luremaster profession. FREE BAIT EVERYDAY. and recycling the trash gives you coal, cloth, wood, stone, iron!!! all stuff youll use(coal at least)
Same. I usually end up with a crab pot empire. Nets me a solid amount with zero upkeep. Bonus points for doing this in multiplayer cause you can get the increased sell price AND baitless.
@@ishanchegu yup. By the time I get the lure master profession that worm bin gets hooked up to the system in my crafting area. Stockpile that bait for when I'm chasing legendaries... Or more likely that stupid lava eel
I use wormbins the same way
I still need to make some crabpots to fill the little pond in my farm but it's a nice way to get some cool recycled items
And please just make the worm bin works like in real life. You can add some cheap crops or forages, and you get in return 3-2 wild bait in a process that would take 20 minutes
Bee Houses are actually super OP on Ginger Island. Flowers dont ever decay so you can just plop down a few strategically placed Fairy Roses and fill the whole place with Bees and you get just so much honey
There is a mod you can get to have bees spawn. It's called eemie's bees and it adds so much life to the bee houses
I feel like the copper pan should be able to be upgraded to iridium (it could start as just the pan) so it doesnt look weird in your inventory, and THE GOLDEN SCYTHE. it looks so weird when all of my tools are iridium and i have the infinity gavel which is purple as well, i think when you get to the end of the quarry mine you should just get an iridium scythe, or get the golden scythe that can from then on be upgraded to iridium
I actually love bee houses, I use them on ginger island with like 5 fairy roses on the other side of the farm where you have very small amount of room to plant crops, makes me like 85k every 4 days, which isn't that bad.
Seanie: I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone craft a worm bin
Me with three on my farm: 👁 👄 👁
I'd love to see bees flying around my bee houses!
In my perfection file I have a few fairy roses on ginger island that produce honey all year round, it's pretty nice
the first time I got the copper pan, the very first thing i panned was a lucky ring. you can BET i carry that damn pan around 24/7
omg, you must be rly lucky then
me who has multiple crab pots in the sewers, 3 geode crushers in the mine, a worm bin on ginger island, and carried the copper pan religiously on my head for a while:
Bee house is already really powerful. They can produce hundreds of thousands of gold a week if you put them on ginger island
The worm bin is honestly not bad, I think I got one for a request or the CC. I would just take bait out everyday and have hundreds of bait stocked up. Makes crab pots and randomly fishing more efficient. Can recommend having at least one.
I never used the worm bin or whatever but 25 hardwood is STUPID as fuck. By fishing level 8, you'd have like 50 stacks of bait at that point
@@tobb7006 I usually get to level 10 fishing by Spring 11-12 year 1.
@@tobb7006 TL;DR: you'll have plenty of time to mine and stuff. You just need to plan ahead your first spring since money has a snowballing effect early on. Fishing can bring you a decent amount of money your first weeks.
Tipically you fish until you pass out. Be broke and be sure you level up a skill so you don't lose any money and you're rested for the following day (you don't get energy penalty if that night you leveled up a skill). Day 5 you mine to floor 15-25 depending on luck. Get 45 copper ore so you can craft a furnace and smelt 5 copper bars on day 6. upgrade pickaxe that same day. Day 6-7 keep fishing. Days 8-9 try to reach floor 40 and get 25 iron ore. Day 9-10 upgrade pickaxe. Fund the upgrades with profits from fishing. Keep Chubs for energy (I plant 215 potatoes on day 6 to reach level 6 farming Spring 12, I really need that energy). If you need wood, just cut enough to meet your needs, normally it's a chest, but don't cut the stump unless you need the spot it's occupying. Stumps are not worth the energy this early on and they spawn tree seeds around them. Rainy days fish at Cindersap Forest for those Catfish, they can be hard to catch, but they are worth a lot. Always go for bubbles and treasure chests and try to get perfect catches (double xp), you'll be leveling up your fishing skill without even noticing.
Bait is 5G per from Willy. When I play I literally just buy 200 bait from Willy, don't care about it for like 2 seasons, and then repeat. Or even if you didn't want to buy it, just go to level 15 in the mines and kill bugs. Using the burglar ring gets you 2 bug meat, or 10 bait, almost every kill.
I used the worm generator
Crafted two, got bait everyday and eventually got 999 through some years. Never had to buy any bait even tho I used to fish. It's sad it only produces normal bait tho
Ok some bones to pick I have crab pots and I find them incredibly useful especially paired with the worm maker and a recycle machine. You can get quite a bit of coal out of it. Also, of all the things in the wallet the +1 to luck is by far the better item over spring farking onions. Oh, speaking of disgusting did you know you have little, tiny bugs that live in your eyelashes. Bet you didn't and now you do, and I hope you're as disgusted by it as the spring onion bugs, you're welcome. And lastly ALEX is the hardest NPC to befriend by far. He only has 2 late game cookable items that he loves. Any liked items are weak at best for him. Anyway, thanks for letting me pick those bones. I really like some of your ideas for upgrading underwhelming items in SDV. Thanks for all the hard work that went into this video.
Personally I use multiple geocrushers and I have never had issues with coal, but I might just be coal lucky.
i’ve never used geocrushers but i’ve also never had issues with coal either. i always have way more than i need
If you're playing multiplayer, Clint is super slow and not always available. Time is your most valuable resource.
Do you guys have the prospector perk? Cause that changes coal drop rate to double, but most people go for excavator in order to get more omnigeodes for dessert trader.
@@maysee2515 Picked a Gemologist perk way back when, never had an issue with coal; if anything, there's always too much of it. Didn’t even had to buy it from Clint, not once. Maybe it's cause I'm not the type of player to min-max a farm with millions of kegs tho.
tbh if the beehouse worked indoors (specifically in the greenhouse) it'll make it like a thousand times more viable
Next video idea
Fixing Adventure Guilds horrible rewards
I mean, slime charmer and burglar rings are a good combination
spring onion mastery is so obsolete that I didn't even know it existed until I was on year 9 of my perfection farm
Great vid! 12:14 I find it annoying to hear the shimmering lights sound from water bodies all over the game - I hear them a lot and don't see them, plus I don't use the pan because I don't have the space, time, or patience for it. Wish that sound happened only if you had the pan equipped.
these are really smart !! you should make more of these
Crab pots should catch more things the longer you leave them in the water. My parents use them in real life and usually get heaps of crabs in one.
THREE. IRON. BARS.
"No one has ever used the geode crusher" I mean haboo used it in the 24 hour perfection speedrun ... (because you place multiple geode crushers and then it's fast)
First off, these are fantastic and really well thought out ideas, it was really interesting hearing your thoughts on this!
On the note of worm bins and crab pots, I actually made and used a ton of them for the first time recently. I was playing a super heavily modded Stardew and I had the Automate mod which lets you insert and extract items from machines into chests, and using a bunch of worm bins and crab pots you can sustain infinite bait for the crab pots and just generate free stuff that automatically gets collected into a chest without you doing anything. I found it was great for getting the Fish part of higher level fertilizer crafts.
But yeah, they could use some tweaking, the cost of both is nuts, and the rewards are lacking in the extreme. I loved your idea for unique items that add bobber buff effects that could stack with food, that’s a fantastic idea.
I definitely agree that panning needs to be changed massively. It’s so disappointing to unlock it for a community bundle - the others are mostly big neat unlocks like the desert which is the gateway to lategame stuff or mine carts which are insanely useful or even the quarry which is less useful but still nice. Panning is just useless and annoying. I think making the pan upgradeable like your normal tools would be a good start. Maybe make higher levels catch more stuff? But definitely massively increase the number and frequency of panning spots, and giving panning access to fishing treasure chest loot is a good idea too.
Worm bins are pretty useful for me I use alot of crab pots if your on the river farm it's pretty helpful
i feel this also relies on using the riverfarm for reasons other than to make an aesthetically appealing farm
why even bother with worm bins? 1k bait is only 5k. at worst(unless you catch trash), you will more than pay for each one you use buy multiple times its value. seriously, you are basically sacrificing space to get 25g(at most) of worth.
What I usually do with honey is I plant a few fairy roses on the patches of dirt around the pond in the ginger island farm area. You can usually get around 200+ beeboxes there which is around 200k every 4 days year round with the artisan buff.
Me, someone who is using the Automate mod and has crafted multiple worm bins and geode crushers:
"Yeah, why would anyone craft those machines?" *laughs nervously*
Ah yes, geode crushers, worm bins, crab pots, and bee houses. I use those every day in Stardew...
The crab pots and worm bin being cheaper would be nice but they are not useless if you have the automation mod. This mod lets you place a chest down adjacent to a machine and will auto fill and empty the machine much like how most people want hoppers to work. However it will also work with strings of adjacent machine ie you put 5 crab pots in the water all touching each other than put a chest on the ground right next to one of the pots. Anything in the pots transfers to the chest automatically and any bait in the chest transfers to the pots. Next adjacent to the chest you place a recycler and a wormbin. Now the worm bin make 5 bait they transfer to the chest then to the pots. What the pots catch transfers to the chest with any trash items transferring from there to the recycler. Final the recycler products transfer to the chest. This all happens automatically so you just come back once a week or even once a season and clean out all you goodies from the chest
Actually the geode crasher is pretty good bevause of a bug that makes the first geode you crash in it after opening a geode at clint the same item you got from the geode opend at clint so if you get a prismatic shard from a geode and have ageode crasher you will get 2 prismatic shards
If an item should rely on unintended 'feature' to make it viable, then that item should be buffed from the start.
I never used that bug. Getting prismatic shards is easier than getting pearls. Max luck is the key. Even more with Statue of True Perfection.
I find the copper pan useful on Ginger Island at least. I always appreciated getting a few free omni geodes so I could get the rainbow cowboy hat :)
or for spring onions: they could give better health/ energy boosts or some kind of speed/foraging buff so people would have more reason to venture down to pick them in the late game
“I dont think ive ever seen someone craft a worm bin”
Me, who crafted and used a worm bin regularly: guess im no one now
I would love to dye the Slime Hutch, maybe a nice pink or a slimy green. Upgrading the copper pan should unlock better lootable items, like copper gives ores and once you reach iridium you'll have a higher chance for rare artifacts found in the respective waters you panned in.
The copper pan should be upgradeable, like the other tools. Also, each tool should have a special unique item "upgrade", like the Golden Scythe. The pick and the axe could have a single pickaxe unique item that lets you replace both in your inventory, for example. Each is the reward at the end of a special event, be that a dungeon, or some other method.
I will ALWAYS defend panning. Why you ask? Well maybe it’s because *I panned my first lucky ring.* Miracles happens
You know what's great? Having the automate mod.
I have 2 worm bins feeding into 4 crab pots feeding into a chest connected to a couple recycling machines and I love it XD
These are genuinely really good ideas and they actually seem good for vanilla, unlike other TH-camrs.
I love the worm bin. I have 2 next to my stable and put 4-10 bait in my fishing pole every morning before I hop on my steed and ride off. I have like 600 bait in my fishing pole now
Kinda wish you mentioned the shashimi trick with lower level fish items like the ones from crab pots; iirc, shashimi sells for 110, which significantly increases gains
The copper pan should be upgradeable (iron, gold, iridium) with each upgrade increasing the likelihood of panning a item from the fishing chest loot table. Also fishing skill level should also factor into this calculation so there is more of a reason to finish getting to level 10 fishing.
Awesome stuff, all of your Stardew videos made me sub! keep up the hard work! i really enjoy these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crab pots are good item while they are pricey remember that they give u items for almost free (and is free if u take perk in fishing) and makes worm bin useful.
Also you forget that one of the best sources of coal is combo of crab pot + recycling bin.
Spring onions are good source of gold for first spring as you get your first gold for seeds from them.
Oh I will add that crab pots are great source of fishing xp as You don t have to waste stamina on them and can collect them at the start of each day when shops and homes are closed.
"no one has ever used the geod crusher" haboo in his most recent perfection run
Haven't played in awhile so this might have been updated but, the shimmering lights for the copper pan can be common on some day. The problem is they are in predetermined areas and disappear quickly so if you're not in the right area when one spawns it will be missed or if you are on the correct screen odds are you will not find it in time to use the pan.Even if you are lucky enough to actually see one it could spawn in an inaccessible area. A good upgrade for it would be to have the shimmering spots act more like artifact spots. I like to let them pile up and just do a loop around town every three days or so to pick them all up.
Didnt know Geode Crusher was considered that horrible. On my current very casual playthrough I have a bunch of them standing around where I just put all my Geodes from my day of mining in, I dont really wait for them to finish, I just put them in in the evening, take them out in the morning, and if I have more geodes left than I have crushers I just put them in in the morning as well before going on my daily grind. Saves me some time that Id spent waiting for Clint, its not like I need whatever the crushers spew out immediately.
Personally, I would make the Spring Onion mastery cutscene with the vincent and jas sewer scene
I keep one geode crusher at Clint’s because there’s a glitch where if you crack open a geode you’ll get the exact same item if you put another geode in the crusher right after. Every once in a while I’ll crack a ton of omni geodes until I get a prismatic shard and then once I do I immediately use the geode crusher and without fail will get another prismatic shard
Automate mod makes a lot of those things actully useful. Like crab pots and worm bins together with trash processor make a full-afk farm making useful stuff.
I love my worm bins and crab pots, they work really well together and with recycling machines
I actually have a shed full of geode crushers on my farm.
It's pretty useful if you bomb-mine on the skull cavern since you get lots of omni-geodes
It's interesting to watch this after 1.6, because some of these things have actually changed! Not in the specific ways outlined in this video, but in some similar ways
Geode Crushers are useful in that they can dupe whatever came out of the last geode that Clint broke open. It's helpful for getting multiple Prismatic Shards and iridium ore in the early and mid game when those things are hard to come by. Combine that with the knowledge you get from the Stardew Predictor website and you can pick and choose any mineral or artifact in the game and have multiples of it.
early to mid, except your best chance to get it is in fall, and probably will either not get it at first, or only get it by winter.
by that point you will probably already have unlocked the desert so iridium is easy to come by.
The stone chest is rewarding cus it’s pretty
The geode crusher has one significant use. It gives you the last thing that Clint cracked for you. So you Clint cracks open a prismatic shard, and you then put the same type of geode into the crusher, you will get another prismatic shard.
“i don’t think ive seen a single person craft a worm bin” *looks at my worm bin* yeah hahah,,, same
That's the reason I'm using automate.
A lot of the items are nice to have if you can just set them up and forget about them until you check the chest for all the things they produced.
Like when I needed another dwarf computer for the farm computer I just dumped some of my stockpile magma geodes and coal into a chest attached to one and came back a few days later to one ready in the chest.
Worm bins used to be alright with this before the wild bait buff, giving them at least a low chance of producing wild bait would be huge.
ConcernedApe MUST see this because this would be so good
What abt oil makers? They turn truffles into truffle oil and corn, sunflowers and sunflower seeds into oil. I have the Artisan and Botanist Perk and also a Barn with 4 pigs. I have 1 oil maker bc of a quest which lewis wanted a bottle of truffle oil. After which I realised that truffles at iridium quality bc of botanist perk sold for 1250g each while truffle oil goes for 1491g or smthing like and oil is kinda useless since you buy them from pierre for 200g. THE MAIN POINT is that to craft one,you need 50 slime, 20 HARDWOOD and a gold bar. Hence i think their useless at any point of the game whether its mid or late game bc their useless and 20 HARDWOOD (PS: If there are any error pls tell me in the replies or if there are any good reasons for these stupid oil makers)
I think (not 100% sure yet) I found I use for the worm bin, granted you need a mod. More specifically the automate mod which will automate some processes using chests and other things like that. My thought is to place the crab pots chaining them up, then place a worm bin touching/closest tile to the pots than place a chest the same way. I assume it would work but I'd have to test it first
*Your beehouse upgrade is a must!* Producing more flower honey as well as pollenating flowers is so needed!😭🐝
the worm bin is legit OP in vanilla if your farm is full of pots but you don't want to bug farm
If you are modding anyway, for geodes you can just have animation skip mod, it makes Clint crash geodes in an instance. Life changing really.
Sean I really enjoy how you manage to make your videos differ from your streams. I watch almost every stream but still find your videos so enjoyable because they never feel repetitive:)
"no one has ever used the geode crusher"
me, looking at Argon matrix's price of perfection run: hmm...
6:04 I did once it was Salmonberry or Blackberry Season. I sold half of what I gathered and ate the rest. I did that until I was able to make Algae Soup. It is the only thing I eat in the mines unless I find something better that isn't a Loved or Liked Gift.
12:28 Pretty sure this mainly applies to those capable of surviving the Desert Mine. I cannot so I don't go in. I don't even visit the Desert unless it's Saturday or Wednesday.
Hey, Seanie! Really enjoyed your vid 🙂. Maybe a fun crab pot mod will come out! In my experience, bee houses can be helpful for making gold, particularly on ginger island. Even without the artisan perk and flower buffs, a bee house generates 25g/day. Not bad for early game! On ginger island, with the artisan perk, a fairy rose bee house can bring in 238g/day all year long. Thanks for reading!
I love the idea of the beehives improving crop growth. It would also be great for it to improve the chance of high quality crops. The worm bin could also provide compost/fertilizer to improve crops as well.
I use worm bins and crab pots every playthrough.. I have 10 crab pots on the farm to produce 10 fish that I "cook" into sashimi (Linus friendship recipe) and 5 worm bins to produce more than enough bait to "feed" the crab pots.. Just be sure to get the crab pot related perks including the one that prevents catching trash items (Mariner?).. The reason for going for "always catch fish" perk instead of "crab pots never need bait" is 2-fold.. 1) Every crab pot filled is guaranteed fish, which means sashimi.. 2) While holding bait, your only interaction with crab pots is to fill them, which prevents loss of time and inconvenience of picking up crab pots accidentally..
Sashimi is a very easy to craft food recipe (literally ANY fish).. You only need a kitchen and about 2-4 hearts with Linus to get the recipe.. Since sashimi does not provide any buffs, it will never override any food buffs that are harder to craft.. While it is only marginally better than iridium quality Salmonberry and Blackberry, you can mass produce it all year round instead of waiting for the small window in each year to run around the entire map to find them.. Which, by the way, is another boon in itself since you don't need to hunt down numerous locations across the entire map (that may or may not even have a berry to harvest) to get the most each year..
dude nice, im going to use this on my current playthrough
I would spend a prismatic shard on the copper pan and the golden scythe individually for no added benefit other than also purple
Me: who puts beehouses and fairy flowers on ginger island,
I don’t have such weakness
Crab Pots and Worm Bins becomes 100x more worthwhile when using the automate mod. Hook them up to a chest and a recycling machine and get passive income.
The bee houses should definitely work with potted flowers IMO
