I heard the news that the beta was released, so I decided to play DST after a long time! Comments asked for an early-game guide for Woodie, so I recorded a solo playthrough while keeping in mind that I would be playing on this map and building a base camp. If your goal is just to rush the ruins, you can progress much faster.
I used the skill tree that I use when playing solo, which is optimized for the ruins rush. The items placed in the quick crafting tab should be sufficient. Focus on making a backpack and a spear.
Collect seeds as you see them and try to find the forest or swamp quickly to gather Monster Meat. In the video, I was fortunate to encounter a special biome, allowing me to quickly farm lots of monster meat.
Craft 1 Beaver Idol, 3-4 Moose Idols, and 3-4 Goose Idols, then head underground. Eat the Goose Idol and find the mud biome (an area with orange-colored turf and lots of light bulbs). Go opposite the cave entrance, and you'll find paths made of rocky turf, leading you to the mud biome.
In the mud biome, find and defeat the Nightmare Werepig (spawns after day 2). Check out the strategy for defeating him here.
• Woodie Moose VS Nightm...
Now that your sanity is low, there's a high chance of being attacked by Nightmare Creatures once you transform into a human. Prepare to wear the Dreadstone Helm as soon as you transform.
Eat the Goose Idol and find the labyrinth in the ruins. The ruin's entrance is where there are blue mushrooms and a dense area of Monkey Huts.
Once you find the labyrinth, defeat the Ancient Guardian and collect the loot. You can easily defeat him by dodging his attacks using Weremoose's charge skill.
After that, make more items using Thulecite and gems dropped by the Guardian or eat the goose Idol and just exit the labyrinth. If you safely reach the surface with the items, your ruins rush is complete!
I'll upload a video for finding the Moon Quay and Moon Island during early autumn someday. I hope people play Woodie a lot!
Thanks for watching the video :)
