You'll still have to go back for your stuff (in a potentialy dangerous area) while a life giving amulet lets you respawn right where you died and puts all enemies to sleep.
@@barteksalachna3388 No, the whole point is you could revive in a safe base, far away from whatever killed you. Also when playing alone, world resets if you don't revive in time, so ghost travel to an amulet is not optimal.
The lazy deserter is useful even in solo play, you touch it and drop your sanity. A blessing if you play with Maxwell or Wigfrid, characters who make you feel like insanity is a myth
As Maxwell you can easily go insane by crafting 4 shadow minions (you should always have some workers crafted anyway, unless you are fighting something big) and then holding a dark sword for a few seconds, you will quickly go insane that way. As for Wigfrid...yeah i can this working for her, even tho i'd probably preffer to just equip a dark sword+night armor for a while...
You can just spam wormholes too, but sometimes I just forget when I play with them and remember when I want to craft something and there is no nightmare fuel left and honestly DST is more fun thanks to the bosses.

You make a great point, and I truly agree with everything in this comment. However Rick dosent intend to make guides for new players. All the other DST youtubers already make guides for new players, so its nice to have someone who actually gives good info for anyone with a decent amount of hours. I may not be the god rick killing every boss (besides toadstool, crab, and malbatross) by day 35 but its still great to have this information. I dont need a youtuber to tell me how boats work and how to make a good boat for sailing, i already know that. Rick's guides are for experienced players, new players have the beard and the wiki. Different content for different skills.
@@watervssodies Yeah, but you gotta understand he throws shade at every other playstyle? Like, some experienced players don't rush ruins, and instead wait the game out. He calls characters bad and challenge characters, like, just let people pick who they want to play? We all came here just to see how to craft shit, we didn't want to get teased over what character we play.
Oh, wow... I didn't expect this video to actually answer a question I've had for a while, which was how to actually change the skins of items like the tam o shanter and krampus sack. Even if Rick brushed the item off as not useful, I am happy to say I learned something from this video.
Hey edgy rick, I really like what you've done with the channel! The content is super informative and your presentation is nicer. Keep up the good work.
I’m happy that you’re back in Dst because the more content creators, the more people get interested in the game, and the more people that gets interested in the game, the more players. The more dst players equals more people to play with which then equals more fun. I know that you think or at least thought that all the new players are noobs, main ”bad” characters and just ruin your experience but if creators like you teach them the way it’s easier for you to find decent people to play with. I still think dst is a great game and that more people should get into it, Thx for the Nice vids
@@NoahHalfSquid You can only eat certain foods that are on a board and you can only eat that food once until you eat all the foods and reset the board. It is a tough challenge
compared to star/mooncaller staff, the nightlight is pretty useless. One starcallerstaff can be used 19 times, then with 5% left it can be turned into a 100% mooncallerstaff with 50 uses. so a total of 69(lmao) uses which is about two seasons of light. Since you get a starcallerstaff before buliding a nightlight, it is really pointless
Important❗️Shadow armor is good... In singleplayer dlc-s(and original) Armor CAN stack in single player(RoG,PE,i think Ham and SW too) It is like... if something deals 100 dmg, the second equipped armor (and lets say it has 80% dmg reduction)will reduce it to 20 dmg and 1st equipped armor (if lets say it has 80% dmg reduction too) will further reduce it to 4 dmg
A Meat Effigy is 100 times better than a life giving amulet. A life giving amulet needs to be haunted to be used, so you have to float over to wherever you dropped it in real time in order to actually use it. If you get killed by monkeys, it's possible they will steal it off the ground before you can use it. Wearing it wastes a chest slot, and it's often not very common to be able to tell when you are going to die to just throw it on in the nick of time. Even if you have it in your inventory so it drops on your death, you might accidentally end up haunting one of your other items which can have obnoxious effects. If you set your world to have a time-limit as a ghost and are playing solo the entire session will end if you can't haunt an amulet in time. With the Meat Effigy, you can simply click on the picture that appears when you die and you'll immediately revive inside of it. Really surprised you didn't include this information. The only way a life-giving amulet is better is if you want to resurrect at that specific spot immediately, which is an understandable reason to prefer it...but the Meat Effigy is the best insurance you can get.
I use the moon dial when im in my base fishing in a pond while checking my bird traps cuz i tend to forget when the full moons happen and u might say u can just see because everything turns blue, well no im also blind and lost my dad at the age of 5.
I think I’d also note that the nightmare amulet is also super useful in efficient and quick beard hair farming. Beardlords drop a guaranteed 2 beard hairs
While this is true, it takes a really long time to pilot a boat around the continent, and it only works if everyone is on the surface. Its much better to just use a Cartography Table, since its way cheaper and much less of a time investment
I remember when I was playing a pretty good run and made the worst and stupidest mistake of not noticing that my life giving amulet is in my backpack, either that or I somehow misplaced it
Hey Rick! You mentioned that the chest slot is really valuable because you can use a backpack item there. I bealive backpacks are THE most overrated items in the game (they are good, but you don't need that 8, 12, 14 extra slots ALL the time). I recommend you to do a no/limited backpack challange. It can impove your inventory managment by a lot. :D
yeah thats true, its much better to just have a magiluminescence, especially for boss fights, like there is no reason not to wear one during a boss fight.
One-man band is for music hutch. Great sanity booster. Fire staff is for aggroing mobs, same as boomerang. Or firing at antlion sand castles for decorations. Ocuvigil, moon dial all decoration stuff.
one man band is a bit expensive to raise sanity though, there are better ways like green mushrooms or cacti and fire staff is not a good way to agro as it will burn everything, but you can use the ice staff which is cheaper than the fire staff and works the same.
The clean sweeper really only exists so ppl could get it even if they play on a world that was generated before that update and they have already choped down all totaly normal trees since you should get one from one of the trees that spawn on youre world
0:43 "life giving option a cheaper option doesn't take health" Errr... Eating a pierogi to heal after making one of those, as well as chopping up a couple trees and killing rabbits while insane is a lot cheaper and easier than having to make a varg farm to get red gems in the summer. Unless there's something I'm missing
1:18 wait theres a 25% chance for the glommer pan flute to not spawn? I always make an effort to find it while prepping for a ruins rush, and its become a staple as my *Get out of Jail Free Card* ever since. Maybe i am just lucky? Also I find it funny that the Fire Staff has a more expensive recipe with nightmare fuel and the red gem (that you should be using for a life giving amulet) yet its still less useful than the cheaper Ice Staff. The only use I've found for the fire staff is when soloing a boss, you can quickly light them on fire to make them freak out for a few seconds, giving you some time to eat food or heal up uninterrupted and still do some damage. Also you forgot to mention a good solo use of the lazy deserter, its perfect for quickly going insane. You can quickly activate and de-activate it over and over to go insane in a matter of a few seconds since it has infinite uses, and every time you activate it it takes 15 sanity.
@@EdgyRick i know that is is bad there it lowers health and since you have telltale hearts for friends sanity and amulets that revive on the go meat effigy is a little ignorable
@@EdgyRick well yes but in my worlds i cant fight fuelweaver too quick so while i get stone fruit i get them bc why not its a good alternative to speed up the fight but not renewable at a fast rate

Meat effigy can be used to respawn in a safe location without travelling there as a ghost, so it has its uses.
You'll still have to go back for your stuff (in a potentialy dangerous area) while a life giving amulet lets you respawn right where you died and puts all enemies to sleep.
You could just leave a life giving amulet at base to do that. Traveling as a ghost has no downside. You are absurdly fast.
