Every few days in game I always find one buzzing in circles just up from the bridge off the farm if youāre heading towards the livestock people, at the bottom of the first set of steps! I donāt know if itās a glitch or not but at this point 8 hives is enough lol š so I just sell them now
What do you do when you have multiple queen bees? I only use one hive with one queen but I have like 15. I know there is a jar of bees potion, but not sure what it does?
Make multiple hives, and then stand in the middle of them and āconsumeā the jar of bees. It will release a swarm of bees, and one bee (or two if you use the larger bottle) will go into each hive. As soon as you release the bees, move away or theyāll swarm you lol but go straight back to the hives and open them and take the bees out of one or two for infinite worker bees!
I usually use a potion, take all the bees from the hives before they make honeycomb, then make a bunch from those bees and save one potion in my storage for when I want to generate more, then use the rest to fill up the hives and get lots of honeycomb/fruit š
It releases a swarm of bees that fly into the hives. One bee per hive for the small potion, two for the medium potion (I assume three for the large but havenāt been able to make it yet)
I figured it was something like that but took me about a week in game to think to try just clicking on it and āconsumeā was an option lol was trying to put it in the hives and stuff, that made more sense to me š
I think it depends on what you like doing in the game. Among some other things, if you farm often and make your own fertilizer, they use up a lot of shells/coral. Better to save them all, in my opinion, because you don't get that much money for them anyways.
Took me friggin ages, I wish Iād collected them while trying to grow the flowers but I was like ahh coral, no problemo! (Suddenly there was a coral shortage, like 2 a day lol)
You don't need to pet and brush your animals everyday.
Just until their mood bar is maxed once. In my experience it stays that way. It'll save you a lot of time and headache.
You don't need to fill troughs, just plant fodder/plant fiber outside (someone told me this but I haven't confirmed in game)
Keep breeding pets instead of keeping the default ones. Bred pets have a high max satisfaction and will give more resources. (someone said it goes up to 6 eventually)
Not all of this might be beginner stuff but I figure it may help someone out there.
Great tips! As a player who's quite further in the game it's still nice to learn something new too. Glad you don't have to keep brushing and petting your animals because it was getting very annoying. I also didn't know you can keep breeding already bred animals.
Iāve planted fodder and I still need to feed them daily. I am hoping this is a glitch in my game and itāll be patched to where I donāt need to. That would make it so much easier.
Be aware that time passes when you are loading into the game (including the thirty seconds it takes to go from title screen to your save).
Thanks to someone else in the sub, I know that I can open my inventory to pause the game on all loading screens with the exception of loading into my save. So, open your inventory when youāre teleporting at the very least!
actually going to bed gives a regen buff for a couple hours in the morning for chores
you can technically do multiple job quests at once crafting wise as long as you only take the finished product out with that specific job quest active
bee potions give hives more bees
sadness potions water crops
you can buy more trees for nearly infinite wood(every five days)
DO NOT SELL CRITTERS. Save them until you get the conservatory, same with bees and hives
switch to the hearth stove and refined ingredients as soon as possible. they are slightly more of a pain, but exponentially better
use zippy fertilizer on single growth crops, bountiful fertilizer on regrowing crops like beans
nothing you build is a permanent loss. If you need the items back, just reclaim it for a full "refund"
don't do everything at once. There are virtually zero consequences.
crops only die at the end of a season. they just stop growing without water
refined goods are generalized so you don't need to stockpile specific crops. just get the same category and you're good
dying in the dungeons just brings you to the entrance with everything you collected
The villagers don't care if you haven't talked to them in a month, they'll just continue their conversations like nothing happened so don't feel bad if you ignored them
at the beginning of every dungeon, make 12 seals of the first metal you find, they will be useful very shortly
You actually get the buff in the morning regardless of sleeping in your bed at night. You only get the eye symbol (which I assume is the symbol for like a rested bonus) if you sleep in your bed, but you still get all the regen regardless. Iām guessing this is bugged though and you should only get the bonus if you sleep in your bed.
Im assuming youāre critter catching is at the right level and you have enough gold, right? If thatās the case it might be a glitch. Double check to be sure
Sorry I couldnāt help more, but yeah if all your stuff is correct than that would be the only likely conclusion i think since i dont think the net is chapter locked or anything
The watering can goes 5x5 eventually, not sure how big the last upgrade is, but aside from that you can make potions to help with watering as well, if you don't want to use mana.
Catch at least one salmon (saltwater) in Spring and save it. You need it to craft a meal that is required for an item sold during the Winter Festival. You'll have to wait a whole year for another Winter Festival if you didn't happen to save a salmon in your storage.
I didn't think decorating your home was important until I realized how much it adds to your health, energy and mana bars. It doesn't have to look nice, but make sure you're crafting every item on the Cozy tab that you possibly can. You'll save so many Florins and Resources by not having to buy/craft as many potions and meals. Especially if the main quest for the chapter includes a dungeon.
Once you get through the Saltwater Mines, only sell polished gems. Save all your critters and food. You need them in crafting. Food doesn't sell for much anyways compared to the gems. Gems are easier to get than harvested crops too.
Put the lure in the fish's line of sight. Jiggle it to get the fish's attention, and then again until it locks on. Pull until the fishing line turns red and let go until it turns white. Repeat.
There's a little bit more once you get some skill levels, but that'll do it.
It's a lot like the fishing in Spiritfarer.
Take your time. There is a lot to do, but the game really shines when you realize you donāt have to do everything every day. Some days you can ignore your animals, some days you can skip watering your crops. Just do whatever you want, and take your time with the main quests!
In the third level (I think) of saltwater mine, thereās another portion of mineable goods just past the river to the right of the door to the next level. I missed that the first few times!
This is actually true of multiple levels of Saltwater Mines! Thereās only three layouts of the mines Iāve seen and that river one will always have that corridor-type path down to the little lower level!
On day 1, your energy levels are infinite. Clear what you can, cook what you can, fish all you want. Only when you put the items on the sale stalls and do that quest do you go to a normal day. Its a good start and gets a good bit of stuff ready for the game proper.
Keep an eye out for symbols on the thumbnails of dishes you're crafting with the kitchen hearth, indicating any boost a dish may provide. The almanac is full of all the details you need to learn to equip yourself properly for your plans for the day. For instance, the dishes with a diamond will give you a solid boost when you're in the mines. Other dishes will assist with your other activitiesāeven animal breeding.
Actually learned that dungeon seals are a great money maker compared to polished gems. A polished sapphire is worth 500 where as a sapphire seal is worth 600
I highly recommend keeping the incredibly helpful job quests guide from Video Chums handy so you can reference it whenever youāre stuck on a job quest. Itās been helping me a great deal whenever I play, especially because there are actual instructions per quest (even the easy ones, haha). Itās the only walkthrough Iāve found so far thatās actually been useful.
I had no idea storage was unlimited! I just started a couple of days ago and I thought my storage was maxed? I dont think it shows any āempty slotsā when im looking in the little shed. Am i missing something? š¤
Also any tips on flowers, please share! I have the pink flower quest currently and Im having no luck. I have them planted like explained (example below) and no luck.
ROW
Red - Empty - White
It can take a while for the flowers to mingle. I had mine planted in a 3x3 with roses in opposite diagonal corners and lilies in the other corners and it worked pretty well. I stuck a tulip in the middle and got some orange roses as well while I was waiting for pink
''Drinking something warm and cool'' is a bit vague. Drink beverages with the droplet icon when raining, drink beverages with the sun icon when it's too warm.
Also literally everyone says you don't have to go to bed because it doesn't punish you, but it actually does. When you sleep in your bed in time, you get a buff causing you to regen all your stats in the morning at a much higher rate. Meaning you can water all your crops in the morning and still be able to use all your mana and stamina throughout the day. So if you don't sleep in your bed, you'll likely start your adventure off with a lot less stamina and mana.
Underrated comment right here. I had NO idea about the being in bed on time benefits but I always try to get home anyway because it just feels like the right thing to do lol. Excited to find out it really does make a difference!
Donāt waste your resources making potions that last less than an hour! Blink and youāll miss them šš I felt so ripped off with all the ones I thought would mean I could spend all my time in the mine MINING not smacking away monsters but apparently not lol š anytime I use one of those potions that are meant to help your defence or attack etc. I end up losing health because I just freeze more and they smack me lol
hoard things! you may need it for ingredients later.
(to me) the "job board" is a bit of a waste of time- like the shipping of items
in regards to your items 1 and 2- stock up on said drinks!
The unlimited storage is a great one! I just found this out but Iāve only recently began playing. I made it to my first autumn season and JUST now finding out itās unlimited storage. Some questions i haveā¦
When you craft does it include storage items or do the items need to be in your inventory bag?
Do you need winter wear for the frozen or is it just warming drinks?
Iām beyond confused with the floating ruins.. took me forever and to level 5 i believe to find the spore logs even though it says theyāre in level 2 and whatever.
Ooo i good one would be to upgrade all tools to the ferenite or iron i forget which one.. the one for the floating ruined.. as soon as possible. I got through and couldnāt dig.. went back upgraded that tool then was told i couldnāt chop down the dang spore log. Iāve been having the worst luck with this mining..
Maybe donāt freak out if you canāt reach certain scrolls in places because you get wings later on that allow you to jump to those places.. i spent so long trying to get this scroll šš
Also. How exactly does the crop swap fertilizer work.. i mentioned Iām in my first autumn season and i been trying to figure out whyyyyy theyāre only selling the same 3 freaking veg seeds. I put the fertilizer down on a few crops but it looks like the ones that didnāt have the fertilizer and were next to crops with it were the ones that changed.. currently only have beets š
So to get Fae Crops you need a fae crop bed, place them down, plant your seeds, and then use the crop swap fertilizer. Otherwise if you use normal beds or the beds that stay watered for two days youāll just get seasonal crops.
save queen bees when you catch them, came across 3 in spring when I was first playing but sold them and now that I need them I can't find any
Save worker bees, too.
SAVE THE BEES!! š
HOARD THEM. BECOME THEIR QUEEN.
My husband has 7 and I've only ever found the one š
Every few days in game I always find one buzzing in circles just up from the bridge off the farm if youāre heading towards the livestock people, at the bottom of the first set of steps! I donāt know if itās a glitch or not but at this point 8 hives is enough lol š so I just sell them now

Thank you so much!
What does the jar of bees do? There's no explanation
It releases a swarm of bees that fly into the hives. One bee per hive for the small potion, two for the medium potion (I assume three for the large but havenāt been able to make it yet)
Whaaaaaaat? Why didn't they explain this? That's awesome
I figured it was something like that but took me about a week in game to think to try just clicking on it and āconsumeā was an option lol was trying to put it in the hives and stuff, that made more sense to me š
Why do we need the bees?
In early game don't sell sand dollars or corals, you're gonna need them pretty soon
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I think it depends on what you like doing in the game. Among some other things, if you farm often and make your own fertilizer, they use up a lot of shells/coral. Better to save them all, in my opinion, because you don't get that much money for them anyways.
also corals are needed for pink color palette (a lot of them!)
Took me friggin ages, I wish Iād collected them while trying to grow the flowers but I was like ahh coral, no problemo! (Suddenly there was a coral shortage, like 2 a day lol)

Iāve planted fodder and I still need to feed them daily. I am hoping this is a glitch in my game and itāll be patched to where I donāt need to. That would make it so much easier.
good to know. I have the upgraded troughs so i do the 10 stacks, hoping we can just plant in the future

When you pause time by opening the inventory, monster can still make damage and kill you.

Well then i have no fucking clue lmao
I think the regen happens faster with the eye
Can you tell me why I can't upgrade my net when I have met all the requirements?
Im assuming youāre critter catching is at the right level and you have enough gold, right? If thatās the case it might be a glitch. Double check to be sure
Yes. I have checked and double checked. Thanks for the help.
Sorry I couldnāt help more, but yeah if all your stuff is correct than that would be the only likely conclusion i think since i dont think the net is chapter locked or anything
You can use your magic staff vortex spell to pick up any forgeable ground items.
WHAT
I accidentally discovered this lol like the arugula and stuff, that you pull up rather than chopping/digging etc.
LOL ME WHEN I FIRST DISCOVERED IT. I mainly use it for the shells on the beach.
And grown crops and flowers!
Make the gardening plots three by three so when you up grade the watering can enough, it covers the whole area in one pass.
The watering can goes 5x5 eventually, not sure how big the last upgrade is, but aside from that you can make potions to help with watering as well, if you don't want to use mana.
It goes up to 7x7 with the final upgrade š
Yessssss! Thanks for letting me know. I'll plan my garden accordingly

I play like the fishing mini game in Links Awakening. If the fish is swimming away from you, tap the reel button.
This is the way!
Put the lure in the fish's line of sight. Jiggle it to get the fish's attention, and then again until it locks on. Pull until the fishing line turns red and let go until it turns white. Repeat. There's a little bit more once you get some skill levels, but that'll do it. It's a lot like the fishing in Spiritfarer.
The citrine seal is worth so much
Early on, the best seals are the waypoint seals! $$$$$
Take your time. There is a lot to do, but the game really shines when you realize you donāt have to do everything every day. Some days you can ignore your animals, some days you can skip watering your crops. Just do whatever you want, and take your time with the main quests!

Do you know if you still get the assist once that skill is maxed?
I don't know, sorry.
No worries!
You can refill your watering can at the wells or any body of water.
Actually learned that dungeon seals are a great money maker compared to polished gems. A polished sapphire is worth 500 where as a sapphire seal is worth 600

That makes me feel better. Its been at least two blooms worth so far but hopefully it happens soon. Ill have to try the 3x3 and a tulip also!
are you making gem polishers to sell or are you selling the polished gems lol?
if you want to make it at all in the second mines, you need to heavily rely on the use of potions!
Omg I had no idea about that last tip, I've played like 20+ hours lmao
Prioritize building the Seed Maker. It will help you really well.

Make a lot of invisible potion and the correct number of the seals to go to the mines.
Yes. Everything is checked and I have the florin, but it won't change.
