Math wise miner is the best perk in the game even beating out artisan 40%. Normally when breaking ore nodes you can get 1-4 ore from them, but with miner you get 2-5 ore. This is at worse a 25% increase but at best a 100% increase to ore gained. So on average miner is a 52% increase to the amount of ore you get from a node. Which is much higher than artisan and 2% more than blacksmith, that said it become useless after a point to most casuals players.
haboob
Where does the 52% come from? Eid that in the code or am I bad at math? (could be both tbh)
nerd
@@ateenipeterson I'm curious too.
According to wiki (which might be incorrect because haboo knows the game better than wiki) you get 1-3 iron from iron node, so 2-4 with miner. You go from 2 on average to 3 on average, which is 50% more ore on average. I'm not sure if 1-3 ore are equally likely though and even if it's 1-4, as haboo said, it's still +40% ore.
the rancher profession is only useful if you’re therm and you force yourself to play without farming and just own a lot of pigs
fr tho lol
Or cikins
@@saffaplayz7509cickin orphans
Rancher isn't even good for pigs. Truffles are forage
The best profession for pigs is botanist, which makes them super busted
A run where you have to choose your least favorite profession, and you have to lean in to it and actually utilize it
YESSS THIS!!!
Catch me with my daggers lol
Can only make money using the least desirable part of each skill
Yes syrups farming is cool
For single player I generally agree, but there are other considerations when playing multiplayer since certain skills would be redundant if two players had them. For example, for farming in my games the first person to reach level 10 gets Artisan and the second usually goes Coop Master to raise them bunnies faster. No matter who ships the artisan goods, they get the 40% bonus.
When my buddy and I play we just do opposites typically so we get all around bonuses. I usually do farm/fish/ gathering. He always did animals/mining.
I personally love having one player with artisan and one with agriculturalist. Everything you ship gets the artisan bonus AND all crops grow 10% faster (if planted by the agriculturalist)
A year late so you don't have to answer, but this makes me wonder if Artisan would stack with Rancher in multiplayer. If so then that'd make artisan goods (even more) *_BUSTED_* lol.
@@citriosis They don't. Once processed artisan is the only thing that applies, besides the new smoked fish.
woke up in a cold sweat the other night, thought "sean is short for seanathan," and went back to sleep. from now on i will only be calling seanie seanathan.
LMAO i’m using this for any sean i met in the future
My roommate is named Sean. I sometimes call him Seanald. Our other roommate, his wife, loves that
@@ceciliap5336Trust me, we have heard it plenty.
Besides, Sean is John, not Jonathan.
Seanathan Dew
I can’t not read that as sea Nathan
hey Seanie, I'm not a fan, but my late bf was, he said you were his favorite youtuber and that you always made him happy and could always cheer him up no matter how sad or depressed he got and I wanna say thank you for being the same awesome self that you are, you and your content meant so much to him during life, and I know that every time one of your new videos pop up, he watches them right along side me as I promised to watch together with him, so once again thank you for lighting his face up with a soft, warm smile whenever he watched.
Sorry for your loss. I hope you're doing alright now
this made me so emotional. i'm so sorry for your loss, you sound like an amazing person for how you talk about him and keeping your promise. i'm sure he is still looking over you and watching his videos with you
♥️♥️♥️
13:41 in regards to that when you had mentioned forester being better than gatherer, it is helpful to note that the truffles can be doubled with it.
And be instant iridium quality if you pick botanist
The quality doesn't affect the processed product and I don't agree with those who sell truffles without processing them into the more valuable truffle oil.
@@timdaemen1200 iridium truffles are worth more than basic truffle oil
@@timdaemen1200 i was mistaken, i forgot about artisian
@@nightmarishtaco3434 but if you don't have artisan it's still better... and the sell price of truffle oil is not so much better to make it truly worth it to grind for oil makers...
I play this game extremely casually, so seeing these videos are entertaining and informative.
yeah i hear people talk about how you’ll have a pretty efficient farm and you’ll be making like a lot of stuff by the end of year 1 but i didn’t get to that point until the end of year like 3 or 4
Yeah same xD I hear Seanie and other players say things like "You'll need a LOT of kegs" and I'm like: my furthest farm is in year 3 and I think I have 4 kegs on that one?
@@Roozyj just yes. I’m on year 6 and kinda don’t care. I never understood anything of this. It’s just boring. Plant star fruit then turn into wine and repeat.
I just started playing recently and I feel so uncoordinated compared to all those strategies 😂
unironically love the trapper profession. also NEVER do mariner because the recycled stuff is so good, since refined quartz is needed for quality sprinklers & you can straight up get cloth from it
Sorry for replying to a year old comment but just wanted to say that if you're using crab pots as an income source then Mariner is absolutely worth it for the amount of extra money you make with it
@@splatmaster1903 yeah idk what i was cooking. i think i just preferred the extra refined quartz since im always running out of quartz, but that could easily be remedied with crystalariums. just know that i have since improved lol
Hitting Level 5 forgaging really isn't that difficult if you grow spring/summer seeds as your crop of choice. Those count as forageables when harvested, not crops, so you can easily hit Level 5 Foraging after a few harvests.
Yeah idk what he was talking about. I just pick up whatever forage that’s along my path and it levels up plenty quick
@@somerandomwizard5799 Uhm, I'm just gonna point out that cutting dem Trees is giving a stellar amount of foraging experience. If getting high Forage XP is the concern, planting wild seeds *and* cutting trees in the mean time is the way to go, especially if the final goal is Botanist (potentially doubleharvested always iridium-quality Winter Forage on Deluxe Speedgrow with Agriculturist produces ~20000 creds every 4 days)
EDIT: The Values I report on Winter forage assume The Winter Forage to be planted in the Greenhouse btw.
I found the rancher path really useful on my beach perfection farm in the early game! It was the only way for me to make consistently good money each day without going absolutely bonkers watering hundreds of crops by hand.
Luremaster is the best for lazy players, free lobsters everyday is pretty nice.
Plus trashes like broken glasses and cds are basically free refined quartz :D
not to mention once you get the sashimi from clint anything worthless become at least 75 gold worth of fish
i remember watching a Z video where ConcernedApe guessed the tapper profession was a 50% sell price increase. even the creator of stardew thinks that 25% is too low smh.
If you are using the tea sapling method to make a lot of money, you can get to level 5 foraging pretty quickly, and the chance to pick up double forages can help a lot in crafting more seasonal seeds/tea saplings
You need wood for them too so forester would also be helpful
@@jeanelleferdinand5220 both good points
@@jeanelleferdinand5220 but the main bottleneck is fibre
@@randomname2262And sadly, no profession helps with that.
You pick Miner if you want to spend less time in the mines. You pick Geologist if you want to spend more time in the mines.*
You pick Gatherer+Botanist every single time. You can simply buy wood, but iridium quality foragables make befriending everyone so much easier.
Geologist+Excavator can be obscenely powerful if you use a tool like the Stardew Predictor where you can essentially beeline for all the artifacts/gems you need in the museum, as well as maximize prismatic shards and iridium ore you get out of them.
Tracker is how I got 2 luck rings in my first year. As it let me find all the panning spots quickly.
Oh, that's actually interesting! Makes me wanna do a panning run. My latest farmer wears the pan on her head at all times, in case I run into a spot xD
was about to say the same thing i always go tracker and i've got like 7 luck rings from panning on my current save 🕺
i always choose gemologist for excavator at level 10- i often have one or two minerals left for the museum and the doubled geode chance (which stacks with gemologist to potentially drop two geodes) helps with getting those. late game i’d probably switch to blacksmith to save up for the golden clock (you always have sooo much ore once you dont need it anymore), but gemologist and excavator are really good for early-mid game (thinking pre-ginger island) for social reasons and for museum reasons. it helps that a lot of villagers love/like diamonds!! :) prospector i’ve never really thought about considering i farm dust sprites and iron ore at the same time, and dust sprites drop a bunch of coal. great video as always mr seanie dew :D
Yeah, and on top of that, you can go to the desert trader and trade your omni geodes for artifact trove, which are the best way to complete the museum, and it can give you pearls and golden pumpkins, which are universally loved gifts.
I sometimes grind up the hundreds of gems that I don`t use and mix it in with my Starfruit wine. It`s got that little regal touch like gold leaf, but unfortunately it tears up the intestines.
I do it this way: For the majority of the year I run agriculturist and use various speed grow to get the most possible harvests and save up and process all the crops. Then at the end I change it to artisan and sell everything. Doing the same thing for miner.
It'd be super fun to see you do a run deliberately picking the worse professions to see how much it impacts gameplay in the endgame
truffles are a foragable so I enjoy that perk from gatherer
edit: I also have botanist for the truffles so essentially I like pigs and also I’m too lazy to turn it into truffle oil which would be worth less without the first profession anyway
Oil makers are a waste of resources!!
@@ninjacrumbs but what about rain totems?!?
@@ninjacrumbs if you want to do year 1 challenge, you need rain totems. and unless you are absurdly lucky, you will need truffle oil.
@@marcosdheleno I don`t do "year one challenges". I`d rather manicure my farm over the years, curating common sense commerce that funds seasonal aspects that create a vista per annum. As of now I am creating a labyrinth of tea hedges and seasonal trees to envelope the vast beach that I cannot place sprinklers. Meanwhile, to the West I have a limited, but lucrative farm plot. To the North of that I have orchards that produce rainbows and resources over the seasons. East of that I have my quaint town proper with my pigs and cows pumping out vital cheese and money, money truffles. Not to mention the four matching fish pools on the coast. Every tile tricked out, and just "good gawd, if this were real I would live there" Then I go off to the island, collect my Starfruit and load the wineries in at home to give me more money than I can spend. In my opinion, the "one year challenges" devolve the game. How about a "six year challenge" and see what you can truly create?
Why is it that whenever people talk about the gemologist profession, i have yet to see a SINGLE person acknowledge that it also doubles the geodes you get, so it makes completing the museum a lot easier, or getting into the sewers. If you're struggling to get specific artifacts or minerals that only come from geodes, gemologist is pretty good. Especially the level 10 profession that doubles your chances of finding said geodes.
I started a new save and considered picking coopmaster cause I wanted a barn filled with ostriches and didn't want to wait a lot of time and I am not so far in the game but I don't think it's worth it.
Coopmaster only decreases the incubation time and increases the profit from coop animals, coopmaster cannot reach it's full potential in my case because ostriches are barn animals.
I’m team geologist lol, I never sell metal bars bc if I do that’s when I need them for something and I never have enough excess to safely sell them, I always need them for something 😅
Personally I always go Geologist because it can be great for earning money. Gems are already good and so the chance to get more can be good when you're low on cash. I already end up with tons of ore anyway and never enough coal so it often just ends up never needing to be a thing where I need ore. So geologist always ends up working better for me in the end and especially early game. It comes in handy when I need quick cash and have some good gems saved up and I have to save my bars for upgrades because my ADHD is too much of a butt to let me produce bars. Either profession is good, but I definitely always go geologist cause I am never short on ore.
You can get more coal by using forester perk instead, you can turn those woods into charcoal!!!!
So you play without using metal bars?
Rancher can be good if youre speedrunning! Increased friendship with coop animals means you can get stuff a lot more quickly for the cc PLUS the iridium rabbits foot for friendship points. I do also like trapper -> luremaster bc its an easy way to get a shitload of stuff for sashimi (yes im a sebastian simp), crab cakes, and quality fertilizer.
Gather is good because it works on truffles it's also good for collecting Coconut's for golden Coconut's and muscles for the trader
I will never not go full trapper build to filling my Riverside farm with Crap Pots. It is my destiny 😤
Crab pots suck!!
I will say, going trapper and then mariner is helpful if you’re like me and the last fish you need catch for perfection is the shrimp
I always go fisher/angler until I’ve caught most of the fish and then switch to trapper/mariner for a while to get all the crab pot fish and then switch back
The only normal fish I still need to catch is Snail xD After that, it's just the Witch's Cave and Ginger Island I think?
seanie doing all the work so we dont have to
5:33 There is an argument to be made earlier-ish on for geologist and excavator due to geologist affecting geodes too. They can become useful for getting omni geodes and artifact troves to complete the museum much faster(along with getting all the benefits of progressing the museum).
Foraging is great! I love picking Iridium Quality (double) Truffles but you've opened my eyes to how much easier it 'could' be to gather wood to supply my cask and keg crafts
I've honestly always liked Gatherer->Botanist
Guaranteed iridium quality means that, if you're using foraged food (like the magma caps in volcano mines, or crystal fruits, etc), you're getting the most recovery out of it, and said items take only 1 item slot, rather than 4, 1 for each quality.
And, of course, chance for double-harvest is just more stuff. More food, more forage, and if you're using pigs for truffles, it's also more oil.
Extra wood and hardwood from standard trees is.. fine. It just hasn't felt significant in the time I've used it or seen it used. Have wood falling out of my ears anyway, and hardwood isn't too bad to farm, with mahogany trees.
I just started playing SDV this month. So, I've been binging YT vids on it. This one earns a sub for 1) coming out on my birthday and 2) covering one of the first "issues" I ran into (choosing professions).
if you animation cancel your hammer swing, with 3 aquamarine and scout + desparado, plus a aquamarine ring (which you should honestly have anyways cause 10% chacne for 3x dmg is more then the 10% from a ruby ring) you actually do more dps alot of the time then the hammer slam exploit with 3 ruby, even with not great animation canceling. This is mostly because almost anything but slimes either die so quick it doesnt matter or fly back like serpents or ghosts when you slam, meaning the high single hit of crits is alot more important then acrobat cause you one shot things most of the time.
also using scout +desperado build frees up your enchantment to not have to take artful, so you can take whatever else youd like. plus you can still use the hammer slam exploit on slimes and stuff that are pinned in a corner already, and you wont need the cdr cause you wont really use it often.
This does kinda all go out the window if your using a macro to click faster then a human could during the hammer slam expoilt time frame, or if you dont have access to the forge yet tho.
TL/DR: big number = dopamine
It never occurred to me to animation cancel weapons, very nice tip.
People who are this involved with mining/combat need to make more money.
This was super helpful TY!
Cool video! Really enjoyed it however at 10:00 you highlighted lumberjack and botanist instead of the lower level perks
i like crab pots. you can make a lot of valuable resources like wood, coal, refined quarts
Recycling Machine + Crab pots + Luremaster is so good, pair it with the Wood Chipper and you got a very n1 setup, in mid to late game fishing takes to much from your day normally, its not allways about money and people seem to forget that, the fact that you get constantly iron, wood, coal, cloth , and refind quarz, and it is crazy. with all the food on top of it for cooking if you have around 120 of them you have a n1 setup that takes with coffe mybe 1-2 hours of your day for 0 energy and around 4000 - 6000 gold a day. Plus you never have to refine quarz and keep it for the desert trader in the long run.
You should pick excavator if you want to complete the museum or just desperate to get an early prismatic
Edit: And I personally recommend gatherer for easy money at the end of every season. If you get 2 per forage items then you can make 20 seasonal seeds, keep planting and making more seeds then make tea saplings at the very end of a season
I haven't played Pirate enough but Angler works with summer ocean fish especially right after 1 pm. I hate octopus for the difficulty.
For combat i love the crit chance and crit damage routes, galaxy sword with 3 crit upgrades and those professions makes me do 400+ damage attacks very consistently
when i first started playing i looked up a guide for what professions to pick. however, that guide was old and so all the choices were based around how to get iridium ore bc at the time it was hard...so i always go excavator out of sheer habit. tho your arguments towards the miner profession...ive been so low on ore (and coal) on my current farm so im almost tempted to swap...but i am a creature of habit
At the very least, you can make coal by burning wood.
Thanks, definitely going to grind til Blacksmith now
For the foraging section what you want to do once you get later in the game and you start to use pigs you can get the gatherer and botanist perfection so each truffle costs $1150 and then you have a chance to get to after that
I always go pirate because I'm too much of a coward to go into Skull Cavern so I always fish my dino egg, so I need a whole lot of treasure chests
I don`t how long you have been playing, but I remember hundreds of hours ago when I felt the same. Now, with a solid farm, I have hundreds of iridium cheese, stairs, mega bombs. Skull Cavern is a joke now. I only go there if I need iridium ore, which I don`t anymore, cause gem makers are a joke compared to truffles and starfruit wine!!
I have not reached the late enough to do it but I figure that taking the trapper perks could be decent, line the docks by wily's shop with traps then once a day walk through harvest it and sell whatever you don't want to him. It would be quicker with no need for bait and more profitable with the no trash option.
honstly one of the youtuber i enjoy the most
I have my green house full of ancient fruits, with sprinklers. 2 deluxe coops, 2 deluxe barns, and all filled with autograbbers. So all automated. I harvest everything every Sunday and make about 200k a week
Dang, I feel like I'm the only one who picks trapper/luremaster.
I mean, it's nice to not care about bait and to get those soggy newspapers for the chance of getting some free cloth. I mean, it's not like I'll spend my day fishing and enjoying the 50% more value when I'm at fishing level 10, I'll have more important and profitabe things to do.
Also, I forgot to mention the coal/wood/stone that you can get from the trash, like, free resources!
You are not the only one. On challenge runs where money matters, I will not go for trapper (at least early on). But on casual runs, I almost always pick it. Easy source of sashimi.
this doesn´t have anything to do with the video but i got an idea on a challenge to finish the community center
the idea is instate of doing it as fast as possible you do it as slow as possible. the rules would be:
1. you are only aloud to walk
2. you need to find the most inefficient way possible to finish a bundle/ or to get items
3. you cannot skip cutscenes
4. you are not allowed to stalk up on money (if you need it for smth you need to spend it right away for that thing)
5. you can´t use glitches or mods
6. you have to talk to at least 3 villiagers a day
7. you should marry someone of your choosing
8. for seeds you shop at jojas bcs it costs more there
if someone wants to they can add more rules and stuff but i think this could be a cool challenge
This channel is my daily dose of serotonin
Dude really shittin on crab pots like that, with luremaster that's free sashimi every day, a really easy and well liked gift as well as easy energy, and from crab pots what you really want anyways is the trash! With recyclers you can get free wood, stone, COAL, refined quartz, (get it this way rather than taking up crystalarium space and coal) cloth, (no need need for animals or a loom), adn you can even get iron ore! its already super good in vanilla, but if you play with the automate mod it just becomes plain broken!
I have been a tapper with a giant maple syrup farm. I wouldn't recommend it but I loved it thematically.
ok but that sounds so much fun
There's an entire tappable forest to the south with space for extra trees to be seeded. It's not a bad choice. Plenty of room to plant new trees too. Add hives and mead kegs in the spaces between, decorate around the hat shop as a pancake house with a big bear statue. More fun to be there than on the farm.
You can get huge amounts of hardwood in the dangerous mines levels 40-50. Mahogany trees and stumps will spawn on almost every level every run.
Acrobat even without artful is amazing if you use a hammer as your primary and dagger as a switch. They don't share a cooldown, so you can use your hammer to deal massive AOE (even without the exploit) to clear out trash and then use the dagger's spec on a crit build to take out survivors, and by the time the animation finishes your hammer is ready to do another special. If you mess up you can use your sword special to buy yourself some more time, which is what you have to do every time if you didn't go either acrobat or artful.
I love to pick coop master for them dinosaurs and golden chickens as they can't be bought and it is good to get them populate faster.
It is important to pick the profession the day before you put the eggs in the incubator!
After I am done with raising the animals I switch back to Artisan for the money :D
I'm doing coopmaster just for one farm where my goal is to get as many ducks as I can lol. I'm incubating all of them, so it takes a lot less time & money.
@@victoriahewitt9938 ducks are cute, especially when they swim in an lake, however they are only 1200 G, or do you have it as part as an challenge where you are not using farming and fishing?
@@myrakwulf686 I just thought it would be more fun to incubate them all than to buy them from Marnie. I adore ducks & when someone boasted they had 32 on their farm I decided to have a fun farm where the goal is to get even more ducks than her! I've got about 24 so far!
Great tip to pick the profession before incubating!!!
I wanna do this when I get a Dino egg but I am pretty sure if I leave Artisan my profits would fall from the sky while belly flopping
Personally my thoughts on the lumberjack profession is that of you don't need the hardwood you can chuck it in a woodchopper and get extra free wood
Forester and lumberjack profession allows you to have more wood, which you can turn into coals.
I used the treasure buff on fishing when I needed to get the last artifacts for the museum. So I used that and a treasure bobber.
When I start a new save it’s rlly hard to manage inventory, I try fill my day instead of cutting short by fishing, I always get the training rod for 25g because basic fish won’t fill up so much space but will let me quickly level up my fishing level to make it easier to use other rods and make some early coin
"Trees take up 2 spots on your farm" You don't need to grow them on your farm, though. You can fit a million of them near the train tracks or in the desert.
The gatherer profession with the botanist profession also works on truffels. I always have iridium truffels no matter the friendship wirh my pigs.
i'd probably combine the weird purple statue you get from granpa (dupe that shit like its going out of style) and have a steady source of iridium, then smelt that into bars and sell it with the blacksmith perk.
The gem doubling one effects geodes as far as i can tell. Really good early game for the museum
thanks for the tips Harvey.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I knew I will find a comment like this😂😂
I have used tapper in very specific challenge runs where the only tool im allowed to use is the axe. So i would fill the world with maple trees, and tappers essentially functioned as passive income while the chopped ones were more of an active income. It was equal parts fun and tedious just to make use of a never used perk.
Cool vid 10/10 was helpful
Honestly i think im gonna change my mining profession to prospector because i neeever sell bars. I could, but i dont want to cause im just a hoarder and it hurts me to feel like im selling something i will potentially need someday. I have never ran out of coal before but i consistently only have like 120 pieces of it at a time and that makes me feel like im running low so i think prospector would at least eliminate that fear even if it really doesnt seem useful to me in the long run. Also i went gatherer botanist and personally i think its amazing mostly because of the truffles, but i also usually get two crystal fruits when i pick them up which is good for wine. Also when its time to shake bushes, i get a ton of blackberries and sell them all and i dont remember how much it is but they sell for like 120 each and I usually get around 45, so its good money for minimal work if theres nothing else to do
My foraging advice is to go with Forester early game, then change professions to go to Gatherer and Botanist after awhile. Use Tracker if you don’t have all of the museum artifacts.
Tracker is also nice for pigs
Once i realised you only need profit increasing skills on the day you sell stuff, i started using a lot of different skills. I use agriculturist almost all year to get starfruit faster, and this also lets you use 4 houses full of casks to make all your wine iridium quality while waiting for selling day. I had millions of gold saved up before i started doing this though, so i was at a point where i wasnt in immediate need for money
Scout + Desperado can be super powerful later in the game. With the right ring (or rings) and forging on a powerful weapon, you can have critical hits every 3 attacks or so that do 5x or more of the weapon's base damage. My Galaxy Sword with +8 crit chance, some combined rings, and some good luck (Rabbit's foot + ring bonus) is consistently killing enemies within 1 or 2 super-fast swings (crits do 500 damage) and my crit chance isn't quite maxed. Plus it doesn't rely on any weird exploits and gives more flexibility in weapon types.
Also, the Crab Pot level-10 professions are pretty handy in the mid-game. Using Luremaster and just harvesting 30 Crab Pots every day nets you a ton of "fish" to use for crafting Quality Fertilizer, which is WAY faster than catching them individually, and not having to use bait makes it take maybe a minute to harvest. That's probably about 140 fish a week. In year 1 it's especially valuable since you can't buy Quality Fertilizer anyway, but even later it's better to craft than buy. Assume that you're planting 500 seeds; that's 75k that you can save by crafting, which you could use to buy even more seeds. Way more savings than 50% more cash for selling fish by that point.
Personally I use Geologist and excavator, it lets you get iridium via magma geodes on floors 115-119 super fast and without the insane pressure that is your first trip into the skull cavern. Its also a good excuse to mine stone for staircases.
And its not like you can't switch your professions later when your more comfortable going into skull caverns.
My feeling is if you're going Artisan, you're going to want the extra materials Miner and Prospector give.
i like how i went with shepherd instead of the artisan one when my MAIN PROFIT is artisan(didn't understand the profession system at the time) im just dumb. fishing i went with fisher and angler because at the time fish were my main profit.
I wish CA would buff all the perks that are *drastically* under-value compared to their counterparts. Like Rancher and its later 2 options, as well as Agriculturist because no way anyone will ever take that over Artisan except for challenge runs. I dont want the good perks nerfed, i just want the worse perks to at least brought closer so they're still viable, and not *way* worse
The real strength of the botanist perk is having iridium quality gifts. Several villagers love foraged items. I've never had much issue with wood, but I use the desert as a massive tree farm.
I would pick botanist because of how good of a food source can iridium quality purple mushrooms and magma caps be
So, I have to disagree with Seanie that none of the options on Trapper are worthwhile. Mariner, where crab pots do not produce junk items, is very useful if you want to gain fishing levels through crab pots / are looking for items for cooking. The guarantee that you won't get trash in your crab pots is very helpful any time I tackle SDV. When I was doing multiplayer with a friend, I had Mariner as my perk, and if I baited the crab pots, then my friend could harvest the "fish" from them and she gained all of her fishing EXP that way. I complete the recipes and fish tank much faster with this perk.
Is it as beneficial as Angler by late game? Perhaps not since gathering money tends to be the only valuable path at a certain point. But depending on where you are in the game / filling out your fishing tab in the journal, Mariner does have more value than one might think.
If you are still fishing after a year then you might be wasting time and resources. I`m at level 5 fishing by day three. I use the FISHER upgrade to fund backpacks, 2-3 farm buildings, animals, strawberry seeds, and 2-3 tool upgrades. After the first year I never think about fishing again. I hate crab pots so much!!!!!
@@ninjacrumbs - it’s definitely more useful if you’re trying to finish off the fishing tab for perfection, or just needing ingredients for recipes. Needs less days of checking and re-baiting. I certainly don’t recommend it as a permanent perk.
@@Rikrobat Fair enough. I don`t worry about "perfection", as those are chores someone else wants me to do. I focus more on a "perfect farm", cause that`s what I want to do.
@@ninjacrumbs - Totally fair! I’m awful at designing the home farm; I much prefer when the game gives me missions and goals to accomplish. Bonus of SDV appealing to different players. :)
@@Rikrobat Cheers to you, and cheers to to the many, many routes that SDV allows players to scratch their specific game itch!!
I usually go geologist for the simple reason that gems come in different colors and are exciting to find. Ores are kinda boring. Then again, in my new (possibly first time trying for perfection, if I don't get distracted) game, I chose miner.
I always go for Lure Master asap cause I get fish and recycling every day. Lots of free refined quartz and sushimi
so are you just going to ignore the fact that Gatherer works on truffles giving you 20% more truffles which if you turn it into truffle oil with Artisan is about 359629.2 gold per year (this factors in no production in winter but does not factor in rainy days because RNG)
I normally pick prospector first and get a Good stockpile of coal, and then I'll swap to Blacksmith for Late-late game when I'm working toward the obelisks/clock and dont need to make as many machines anymore
I go for crit builds because of a smile reason. Luck stacks. Late game, you only do Qi dungoens and skull cavern for rare resources and with iridium/luck rings and food, crits happen ridiculously often. I had critted 5 times in a row on occasion, which early game I never thought was possible. Not to mention the fact that critting is also more fun audio/visually.
Not staying it's optimal, after all, the most optimal late game resource runs actually involve defender, explosive ammo and stairs
yoo i heard you on the mini katanas youtube channel i heard your voice and instantly recognized it
I was told to go botanist so that's what I did for ages. However I could never get enough wood or hardwood, so I gave forester a try & absolutely LOVED it!! Now I'm swimming in wood without spending days wood farming! I get a ton of coal from dust sprites & geodes, so I tried gemologist for the gifts & chance for double geodes. (1 item away from completing the museum!!!) I might go back to the extra ore, though, as I'm always low.
mariner can be useful if you just want to get a lot of fish for crafting quality fertilizer
Tiller>Artisan
Miner>Prospector - Miner so I don't have to go to the mine so much, and prospector because I always have a use for metal.
Forester>Lumberjack - So I don't have to farm wood as much.
Fisher>Angler
Scout>Acrobat - For hammer time.
10:10 gracias, no veo nada xd.
also love u seanie, thanks for the help xD
I switched to excavator when i was looking for the last few minerals for the museum.
Botanists can also affect truffles which are soo OP, 10 Pigs can produce 30 truffles a day or 840 A season which if you sell in highest quality you can get 1M in a single month, you just have to collect it at 4pm but i dont even dispawn and thats only 10 Pigs if you get 3 barns full you can generate 3m but it will cost space
Fisher to Pirate really is the king of all professions, I can't imagine playing this game without Pirate.
8:25 is good to go for excavator if you didnt complete the museum yet
Geologist is good for the special rock things so u could get two prismatic shards
Luremaster is amazing with automate
I like luremaster a lot.
I fish a lot early and get three hearts with Linus for sashimi and the crab pots turn into free food no maintenance required.
I go with scout then acrobat then I go get artful on my galaxy hammer to just spam the special attack every 2 or seconds and then use the click glitch to just one shot everything.
I have a max attack speed forged galaxy hammer with artful enchant and the acrobat profession
I like to go desperado for combat. With the right rings and weapon I hit a Crit that’s usually enough to oneshot my opponent.
I always pick Gatherer when foraging so that I can get a chance for double Truffles, and then Botanist makes them all Iridium quality.
I believe Artisan SHOULD be on the Rancher side of the professions.
Artisan goods should be animal goods focused, instead of crops.
I know! I had no clue artisan was part of the tiller path and now I regret picking rancher.
Only reason I go crab pots on fishing is because I get to spam sashimi from the snails and little fishies I manage to trap in them for an easy source of food.
