[@damianworek4444]

Seriously, if you don't need the money right away then there is no reason to sell items directly in the shops, especialy if you have other things to do, rather than wandering the town.

[@AM-gv9db]

Also, if you sell crops directy in shops then they won't count towards your amount shipped number. Meaning it's impossible to get some of the achievements if you only sell them in the shop. I like to keep track of how many of each crop I've sold, so I prefer the bin (and it's also way more convenient)

[@Dhalin]

The Spa would be more useful if it wasn't in the most annoying-to-get-to area of the game. Seriously, only the train is up in that screen and I am oftentimes in a hurry as it is. That, and how you slow down to a crawl when you're walking through the spa just seems like that was only done just to waste your time even further. I could see maybe using it early-game when you are out of stamina and it's like noon and you could still chop down some trees or something, sure. But later in game? Especially once you get your kitchen? Just eat some food instead.

[@frostytheduck630]

Well one thing you could do is (if you are on PC) Get the basement mod. There is a version that comes with an upper bathroom so you can recharge your energy there. it also has a mirror that acts as the shrine of illusions.

[@Dhalin]

Yeah but that requires API hooks. I don't really like using those if I can avoid it. I don't mind an .xnb swap, but I don't like messing around with third party .exes.

[@frostytheduck630]

all you have to do is switch a file out. It's even playable without smapi

[@Dhalin]

You can change maps without SMAPI now? I thought modifying maps/adding areas/etc required SMAPI? I'll have to look into it then.

[@frostytheduck630]

Dhalin this one is just a file edit. You can swap the original out for the modded and it will work with it or without SMAPI because it's basically re writing what the map looks like. Although I would save the original file. And if your still confused look up the basement mod on Nexus mods and there's a description of how to install it.

[@LordBarros]

I would have replaced the Train with Trash Cans. You'll get a lot more good stuff, considering there are a dozen of them to check every day.

10. Useful to do if you need the cash here and now (especially early on when you can harvest a crop, sell it, then instantly buy the next batch of seeds) though I wouldn't bother if you don't need the money right away. 9. definitely useful if you want easy friendship hearts or some convenient gold early on. Yet other than that I'd say unless you're aiming for the achievements it's not worth going out of your way to complete them. 8. I mostly use it for the immersion yet there are some useful things in the books. 7. The quarry really isn't that useful. Maybe go visit it once a month to see if it has any rare nodes yet the rocks replenish really slowly and most of the rocks will be useless. One thing you can do however is build over it. So if you fancy turning the quarry into a diamond farm via crystalariums, it can be worth visiting. 6. The secret woods is a bit 'eh' to me. You won't need a huge amount of hardwood so I'd say only chop those if you have the energy and time to spare, the fish are useful if you're aiming to catch every fish, the exclusive items can be collected and then ignored once you have enough and as for the stardrop you don't need to worry about him until you have the gem berry. 5. It's always nice to change your look. Even if all it will do is motivate you to play a little longer. 4. No. The train is never worth your time. Ever. Even when the train does drop items it will be a miniscule amount that you would have gotten more from had you done said tasks on your own. 3. Personally I'd say a bigger tip for the saloon is to remind people about how many villagers visit that place in one go. It's an amazing place to rack up hearts as pretty much everyone likes Gus' goods so you can buy some spaghetti, some beer and a salad for Leah and get tons of friendship points. 2. People forget about crafting? ..You sure? 1. The spa is an amazing place... Until you get a few stardrops and sprinklers and then you never run out of energy. Though still for year 1 the spa is a godsend when you have to manually water all your crops.

You mention selling fish to Willy for absolutely no profit but no mention of the travelling cart where you can buy the rare seeds for bonkers profit...?

sashimi is, imo, the best recipe in the game. once you get access to crab traps, you can use what you catch to make sashimi. they're way better than field snacks, and if you make the bait generator machine thingy, it's also practically free.

There's a plethora of ways to get energy. If you're lazy you can even just get by on the free mushrooms and foraged items. Even early on the spa is wasting so much time.

[@nubbie1494]

brad kirchhoff going to the spa takes like 2 hours. what if you have a surplus of crops, water them all, and then u need to go mining to get sprinklers. u can go to the spa on ur way to the mines and lose only 1 or 2 hours

[@dylan__dog]

The spring berries and onions are worth very little but very easy to get in large amounts, those are best used as an energy source, albeit eating the onions feels so slow

[@Dragon__Fox]

That's why you repeat it quietly - ^ - Character birthday? - repeat until gift is given to Character Traveling merchant? - just repeat the word until you checked what she(?) Sells It works for me •>• Ps: i don't go to the train its kinda useless if you don't need coal or wood since ore is kinda rare

[@cassidybrewer]

How have I been playing this game for two IRL years and I never knew what the spa was for?

[@yesokaysad9197]

Thanks for the help! Just started my farm and I’ve saved every penny worth of spring items and I will do the same with all the seasons so I can keep them in storage when needed and stock up more! :)

[@bistitchualbee]

I've only been playing this game for a week and I already knew all of these "tips". Not helpful, certainly not "AMAZING". Most of these things are covered in the game's tutorial after playing your first day...

[@blameitondanny]

Train is basically just a distraction from your work, in other word, useless. The only thing that it's worth getting from the train is the geodes but it's INSANELY rare to get geodes from the train cart. And for number one, just eat foregable for replanishing energy or just wait for the berry "season" each month.

[@siennadouglas6726]

You should only sell your products to NPCs AFTER you've already gained full skill levels. Selling in the box raises your skill, and selling to NPCs doesn't.

[@saimanno4078]

Actually doing the skill raises the level. But you only get the benefits of the raise level (unlocking more things to craft) when you sleep at night. That's why you associate it with the bin. But if you raise a level, say farming, and sell the crops to Pierre, you still only get next level in farming when you go to sleep and have the summary screen of the day.

[@alwest4472]

Don't listen to sienna Douglas, he's talking bullshit

[@schaffs2]

With the first tip, if I want to fish I usually just fish until 12:00 am and get home by 1 am, so that walking over to the shops doesn’t waste time I could be using to fish

[@LwyseBernardi]

I started playing Stardew Valley a while ago and I thought no one played it! So glad to have found your channel! Liked! :)

[@LondorPS]

Ms.Lwyse dangerously funny that guy channel also great,and also stardew valley once got 8th place as most download game on steam so its popular enough

Still play?

[@spiderdude2099]

Check the trash cans, especially the one by the saloon. I managed to get a maki roll on the 5th of spring, one of the harder community center items.

[@dollymix5]

What a useless list. The time should be "things people dont bother to do in stardew valley". But half of the list are stuffs who are necessary to progress or speed up quite a bit, dont know how dont go to secret wood or didnt visit the spa at the first year. What now, you will do a part two video saying people dont plant seeds or create animals?

[@melissaminster8524]

I agree with the quarry, my first prismatic shard came from there the beginning of year two

[@kellycat6554]

The truth is (this is only true on the Nintendo Switch) if you sell your products to the shops you actually get more profit than putting it in the shipping box.

[@the_dapper_stormtrooper9302]

The train is absolutely pointless, like cool i just wasted most of my day for 2 copper and 4 coal. Same with the spa, you waste all your time when you could just eat some food and get back to work. Its even more pointless in co-op since you can lay in bed and regen your energy and the bed is infinitly better because your bed not in the middle of nowere its right next to the bulk of the work and doesnt take half the day to even get started regening. The rest of the points are very minor and borderline meaningless, like cool i can sell fish to willy, outstanding thanks for this holly knowledge, i will guard it with my life

[@nina-eh6vg]

I like to see my income by the quarter and I save everything until the 28th of that season. It's interesting to see which seasons you do better in and implementing new things you may have tried in a previous season to increase your income. I like the challenge so I play like that :)

[@OlDirtySam]

For me it sounds like 10 things people don't do because you can achieve the effects more profitable and without the feeling of wasting time. 10. There are not much occasions where i need the money NOW. And on any other occasion i can save time and just drop it in the box when i go to bet anyway. No reason to stop with whatever i do much earlier to be able to sell it. 9. No objection. 8. Some information can be found there but most of it is not worth your time. 7. The amount of valuable stuff you get there is pretty meager. And if you want mining for xp go to the mine. More rocks, more valuable stuff to find etc. I have to admit in the very beginning you can have luck and get some mystic stones that are worth to dig. But lets admit: they are pretty rare. The last two and a half year game i played i found two. 6.I agree on this one. 5. Forget to do or just don't care? 4. Run out to the back of beyond to get a hand full of stuff you could have digged yourself in half the time and double the amount? 3. They are not cheaper then self produced. But i have to admit that you get more money by selling the ingrediences and buy the food with the money. 2. Hard to believe that people forget to craft but yeah if they do they should start to. 1. The spa suckz. At the point you can use it you are nearly not more in need of it. And before that you have no access. Should you be more on the slow side of leveling the spa might be okayish. But bursting all your energy out and going to the spa afterwards won't leave you with much time anyway.

[@Katiedid2040]

Secrets everybody knows

[@jasonrobbins4227]

I'm a hoarder lol. Currently in year 7 fall bout to be winter. I've collected everything to sell on last day to evaluate the costs and profits of my farm. 4 bug barns 24 pigs and 24 cows. 3 big coop's 24 chickens 12 lizards. I've 187 bee hives which I use flowers during each season. I've some where around 50 crystaliariams generating diamonds. I've somewhere around 400+ kegs I've 101 aging barrels that make iridium cheese every 7 days. I've 6 of each fruit tree and a green house stuffed with ancient fruit. I've two jumo huts pulling up my crops which is around 350ish. (Farming is not my bag) and I've 18 fishing ponds. My day on the farm runs me from 6am to bout noon. I'm super excited to see how well my farm does by years end!

[@merc5333]

Wow. Normally on your lists I've always learned a new thing. This is the first time where I do every single thing. All the time.😄 Cool! Also I hate the spa (in real life). If I wanna be pampered I'll eat as much pizza and chocolate I can get my hands on, drink my favorite root beer and play my favorite video games and listen to some music.😄🍕🍫📺🎮🎶 Awesome video by the way and I hope you feel better.💖

[@SharkyGamess]

Aww thank you! Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback and support

[@SukiHayashiGaming]

3 things you may not have known about stardew Krobus sells an iridium sprinkler every friday Most everyone is alright with crops, so a good gift is plants that produce a lot, i.e blueberries and strawberries (and strawberries are maru and Demetrius' loved gift) The train can drop things during winter as well, i have gotten shoes

[@completenincompoop3900]

I don't know if those were 'important' tips, Jon Snow, but good job!

[@AetherOwl]

Possible late to the party spoiler that could be easily included.. lvl 4 wizard has another perk; a return teleport to the witch's hut, that in turn has a teleport requiring no unlocks after being able to get to it, back to wizards tower. Basically free transport between them.

[@beans5738]

When I'm out of energy I just eat food

[@ReadObituaries]

I would never run up to the train because I always felt like I was too far away to get there before it left- but it actually keeps what it drops! So you don’t miss out on the first half the train- the items will be on the ground when you get there. Not sure how long they last because I’ve always got there before the last car disappeared- but it does give me enough time to get there

[@nicholasjackson106]

Hey you should try the game My time at Portia . It's supposed to be similar to stardew valley

[@redhandsbluefaces]

Btw, that graphic glitch in the Wizard's Tower where the portal and book are is caused by you using a texture xnb mod that is out of date. The best way to fix this is to do it yourself by unpacking xnb files to get the png file, merging the modded png with the vanilla png in any image manipulation software with transparency, and then repacking the xnb file and replacing it in your Content folder. You can find an xnb unpacking/repacking command prompt on many modding forums. Cheers.

[@nicks4483]

Can you lose some of the mods when you do these videos? The original art is great.

[@Starberries0628]

😍

[@_catastrophic]

agreed.

[@kingofthekeysXBL2]

Cadeboy 13 That seems very low... I’m in my first year, and even during the winter, my lowest earning days are never below 1200.... I make cheese and mayonnaise, plus mine and/or fish in my free time. I’ve had a couple days where I make close to 2.5K depending on some of the pickled/preserved items I sell too. I definitely imagine you should be making more than 1K

[@gigas115]

The only problem with the spa is it's not close enough to anything else in the game to be worthwhile. Usually, if you're out of energy, it's close to the end of the day, and by the time you walk up to the area, go into the spa, go to the locker rooms, and get into the spa, it's been like two in-game hours(or more depending on where you're coming from) and then by the time you get out of the spa and wherever else you're going, it's been another two hours or so. Four out of twenty game-hours just on travel, not including the time it takes to regen isn't really feasible with how many ways there are to recover energy.

[@bradkirchhoff3751]

That was the funniest “wizard” pronunciation of all time lol.

[@laurencea.8099]

There was literally nothing odd with the pronunciation

[@ben-mx3cs]

10. Agreed. Especially in the early game this can make a big difference. 9. Agreed, but only the item delivery quests earn friendship points. Monster slaying, ore prospecting, and fishing quests do not earn any friendship. 8. The wiki is the ultimate guidebook. 7. I found a prismatic shard in a mystic rock at the quarry once. But in all seriousness if you can manage to get the quarry early, it is pretty good. The only problem is that typically you don't get it very early in the game. 6. I farmed hardwood in the secret woods for weeks trying to get enough hardwood for the upgraded farmhouse, since the stumps re-spawn daily. You actually also need the secret woods for a couple of things. There's a 10 heart event with emily, a Stardrop than can be obtained there, as well as a unique fish. 5. 4. The train isn't always delivering presents in winter, so you may still be able to collect items. I haven't found much of value from the train though. If you're lucky you'll get a geode or two, or maybe a few extra gold or coal. 3. The cooked dishes may be cheaper than normal. However, most members of the town have loved items that both aren't cooked dishes and aren't too hard to find. Maybe I would buy a dish of the sea if I had some extra money and I didn't have the resources or recipe knowledge to cook them, but I can't think of any other cooked dishes I would actually buy from gus. They still cost way more than the sell price for the dishes. 2. Fertilizers - I tend to think that fertilizers and speed grows just aren't worth it in general. Sure you get a little more gold per day per fertilizer/speed grow. However, you are paying a significant amount per fertilizer/speed grow as well. You can craft them, but then you are paying a significant amount of resources to craft them. You can buy them, but then you earn less gold per day than you would just planting them normally. The only exception I can think of is if a villager gives you fertilizer or you get speed grow from completing the community center bundle for it. Some would say you should use resources like fish that you don't have a use for on fertilizer, but then you could just sell the fish and earn more gold per day than you would by using fertilizer. Wild Seeds - These are okay. One gripe I have with them is that they produce foraging experience as opposed to farming experience. Also, the forageable crops aren't worth much and can be found all around the map. I like to use my sprinklers for seeds which will generate more value for me, such as giving me unique produce which I can't already find or, making money. Field Snacks - These are overpowered in the early game, especially when you're just getting started and you're clearing your farm or trying to get a decent stack of wood going. Trees grow everywhere around the valley and re-plant themselves, so you don't really need the seeds for anything. May as well use them for field snacks until you have an abundance of energy and food. 1. Yes. The spa is really good in the early game after it opens. It's even better than field snacks if you happen to be reasonably close to it when your energy is low.

[@taltalim6174]

so i should leave my 700 miner's treat and waste 5 hours of in-game time just to get full energy?

[@seochangbin9]

I can see the spa being used in early game. I found it very useful, if I ran out of energy early on the day, that I could just stop by the spa, instead of worrying about finding food to eat. But it would be a big timewaster in the late game, I mean, you have a kitchen and it's waaaaay quicker to just eat food.
