Fields of Mistria | 20 Tips & Tricks You NEED to Know (Early Access)

[@Ginebraxt1]

Another tip: ship each type of crop at least once. The day after a character will give you a recipe that uses that crop

[@ToddJordan]

Self serve shops is a huge farming sim upgrade. I didn't realize the pick axe worked for archeology. Good tip.

[@jinxedmoth]

Agreed! Finally, a farm sim game that just gives the people what we want! :D Thanks for watching!

[@tori8343]

the cattails and chestnuts around the ponds being crafting items was wild to me. I accidentally clicked on the cat tails. you really just gotta try to click on everything lol

[@ArmisHart]

There isn't that many things. Just cat tails and chestnuts. That's it for limited resource plants.

[@ArmisHart]

But yeah they are very hidden

[@wispynoodle]

I am SO glad I was not the only one who thought the water chestnuts were just decor I felt sooo dumb when I finally figured it out 🤣🤣🤣

[@batmabel]

I spent almost the entire month with a quest for water chestnuts having no idea where to get them lmao

[@sparksstorm1783]

I am glad I wasn't the only one 😅

[@OhDeerLordie]

The reason some items aren't showing when you go to a crafting bench is because theres a little icon inside of the chest that allows or restricts it! At 6:02 I can see that your chest there is *locked*, its closed with no arrow sticking out of it, meaning the items are secure and won't be pulled for crafting!

[@jinxedmoth]

Reasons why I love the cozy gaming community 💗 I realized a night or two after I posted this video that I was using the chests all wrong via a reddit post-- I'm adding this update to my next video and pinning in this description as well-- thanks for looking out ✨

[@OhDeerLordie]

@@jinxedmoth it took myself running up to the blacksmith and wondering why all that iron I had stored away wasnt showing up for me to realize the difference between that chest and my other chests LOL The locking function is really nice if I want to have a chest dedicated to stockpiling things for the request board or a ongoing quest!

[@Ginebraxt1]

Wait, there's a locking function? Isn't that icon to rearrange the items?

[@Vampandamonium]

​@@Ginebraxt1 there are 3 buttons. lock from global crafting, sort, delete.

[@MinoMicha]

THIS WAS MY WHOLE PROBLEM AND IT SUDDENLY SOLVED ITSELF AND IDK WHY AND I JUST CLICKED THIS VIDEO BECAUSE I LOVE INTERACTING WITH OTHER FANS BUT YOU ARE THE BEST

[@cinnayeon_]

the eating berries to continuously have 1 energy to keep fishing is so BIG BRAINNNNNN

[@misaandcoart]

If you play Palia you can also do the same while cooking and fishing.

[@lottedea1622]

if you want even more wood you can also chop down the trees outside of your farm! they respawn the next day just like the big boulder in front of the museum ^^

[@ripleigh3800]

I didn’t know about the daycare!!! That is legit the best feature I’ve ever seen in a farming game, I never have the heart to sell my animals 😂

[@clownRatcity]

Me too I’m so glad

[@lgbtomato2206]

Im not sure it's been pointed out, but if your chest is locked that's holding resources, it can't be used for crafting items. (7:00)

[@MrBosor]

FIRST video?! Amazing job. Keep going!!!

[@jinxedmoth]

Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to creating many more! :D Some fun lore about this first video: The program I use crashed several times throughout editing. It lagged so hard towards the end that I could only replay a few seconds before having to save, quit, and reopen to edit another few seconds. It was MADDENING. I almost quit there, but then once I uploaded this video, that program decided to work perfectly fine and never gave me trouble since. 💖

[@Rene99999]

It took me finishing the first season to realize that you only need one stamina to fish, which means the berries can let you fish infinitely at almost no stamina cost. I haven't finished this video yet so idk if that's what you're gonna talk about but if not EAT THEM BERRIES

[@reissarud]

Hello ! at 6:00 I can see in your chest the green potion (with a smile) that you get from reaching the level 10 town renown. This potion gives you +25 permanent energy, don't forget to use it 😄 Good job for your first video !

[@jinxedmoth]

This is actually a really great tip & thanks for pointing this out to share! Whenever I get stamina potions and crystal hearts, I take them with me to the mines and wait till I reach low energy and then use these up to really use them for all they're worth 😈✨

[@clownRatcity]

Wait really? I’ve hoarded the 2 I got because I’m scared of using potions 😭😭 I will definitely use them the next time I go to the mines thankyou sm this is a game changer 💛

[@FrankysABoysName]

Somehow I missed the mining and combat trees? I guess i know what to do with all this "extra" essence. Best tip I've picked up: collect coconuts from the beach all summer long, sell 1 and get the coconut milk recipe. Cheap/easy food!

[@Dragonprr]

Amazing first video!~ I also didn't realize the water chestnuts were...a thing you could pick lol

[@Lacillyn]

What a great debut! Looking forward to seeing what else you create!

[@Aria_Skycress]

Great video, thank you for all the tips and tricks! You have a lovely and calming voice I hope you make more videos!

[@jinxedmoth]

Thank you so much for watching and your support! 💖 & I absolutely plan on it, especially for this game because it's so charming & addicting!

[@LovelySarcastic]

This was your FIRST VIDEO?!? Omg well done! Keep up the good work! 👍

[@ktbreathingin]

Came to say exactly this! Now off to binge watch your other videos!

[@taylorh7993]

You can get shiny beads from all of your animals, not just chickens. I only have a cow at the moment and she's given me quite a few

[@sarahmailloux2622]

I absolutely LOVE your videos!! Please keep these up!! I just started the game and your videos are making it so much more fun.

[@jinxedmoth]

That makes me so happy to hear-- I'm glad you like them! :) FoM is such a lovely game and has easily become one of my favorites. I can't wait for the next big update and full release-- they've given us so much to work with already in Early Access! 🤩

[@heregrain3605]

Really great video! I was surprised by the low amount of views because the video quality is really great. One small thing tho at 14:07 there is a second #15 tip. Otherwise really helpful video!!! You earned yourself a new subscriber!

[@jinxedmoth]

I was surprised to come back after a workday to see I earned a subscriber because of my content ≽^•⩊•^≼ Thank you so much for your support and I'm glad you found this video helpful!

[@NessyontheGo]

Regarding the items not showing up when crafting, it may be because your chest is locked. If the chest is locked, you cannot access the items. (This is a note to anyone! Looks like a few people already pointed this out.)

[@MyDearMadeline]

Your voice is so soothing and you were methodical about the way you presented information. Please keep making videos, especially once’s about Fields of Mistria!

[@jinxedmoth]

Aww thank you so much! I am definitely planning on it :) Sadly right now I'm going through a bit of a "jinxed" period and getting over being sick-- so I've put a tiny pause on uploading so I can work on animations and fun FoM related things that will go into future videos :) I'll likely start uploading again in the new year. Thanks so much for your support and for watching!💖

[@misaandcoart]

These are some brilliant tips. I'll be sure to use them! A fun little side note is also that the creators of the game also made Pusheen, so I am hoping that'll mean we might get plushies at some point. Early access creators received a cozy mug and some plushies. :3

[@jinxedmoth]

I didn't know that-- that's actually adorable!! I hope they release the plushies up to the public soon / maybe release a skeleton chicken plushie down the line 👀💖

[@Cakeandwhimsy]

Great video. I had the same issue accessing my materials when crafting and then realized I had accidently locked one of my chests.

[@jinxedmoth]

Thank you so much! I know.. after I found out the chest was locked after I posted this I was like "Oh no..." we both could have saved so much time 🐸🍵

[@katiemcgovern5962]

Your voice is so relaxing 😍 ive been obsessed with this game. I cant wait for more updates!

[@jinxedmoth]

Aww thank you so much! That makes me happy to hear you find my voice relaxing 💖 I know, the next major update and full release can't come soon enough!! 😩

[@andrijor]

I've never heard anyone say tsundere like that EVER. Also thanks for the tips!!!

[@natalycarrasco3645]

Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing 💕💕 lovely first video, can’t wait for more 😊

[@jinxedmoth]

Ahhh!!~ thank you so much for being my first ever comment on a video 💖 After posting this I ended up finding even more tips and tricks that I look forward to sharing! ✨

[@Icyangel10]

An interesting tip I found elsewhere is to use the sword attack that looks like you're on a pogo stick.(Forgot what it's called) It's not only useful for fighting but it can help remove a lot of dead plants.

[@kendravanbelyea]

Great video, especially for your first one. Incredibly helpful!

[@MitchStewart08]

Great first video! Subbed!

[@SaeranGhoul]

Love this guide! Thank you so much!!!! Cannot wait to see more videos and continue enjoying this game!

[@MarkShocklee]

Great tip video. It took me forever to find the water chestnuts.

[@aidenbarello2452]

This is a really helpful and useful video! Thank you for making it, and I’m excited to see more from you esp about FOM! I have one small suggestion and I’m sorry if this comes off as rude, but I hope it doesn’t. I just wanna say it might be a good idea to look into how to say the word tsundere if it’s a term you might end up using a lot, since I’ve never really heard anybody else say it the way you did here. I hope this doesn’t come off badly, but it was a little jarring. Thanks for making this video, though!!! It was a good watch while making dinner

[@DisKimbobulated]

I love that you just bring a chicken with you everywhere 😅

[@rudigersmooch9675]

This is a great video - thank you for all the tips! One thing, though - you have a relaxing and adorable (?) voice, so I totally wasn't expecting you to describe the character customization as "look your cutest before going to get wrecked," lol. Actually made me laugh in surprise.

[@jinxedmoth]

I'm so glad these tips could help! There's a funny and embarrassing story behind that 😅 I had mispronounced a word out of pure exhaustion from making this video (and when I get excited I talk really fast-- and a few people called it out). So I just edited it out for my own sanity. Now that you know the lore ✨ I'm glad this could make you laugh :D Thanks so much for watching!

[@CalypsoShakira]

Loving this game. Started 2 days ago and hooked as soon as the mines had been open

[@invisiblechicken]

I have just started playing the early access and I expected to experience some anxiety while playing, because I have generalised anxiety. This is one of very few games, and possibly the only farming sim, I have played without feeling like I need to learn every single detail about how to play before I start.

[@jinxedmoth]

That's so good to hear! Farming sims should stay exactly just that-- stress free & cozy 💖 The developers have done a really nice job on creating in-game walkthroughs and making everything feel more accessible to players :) Thanks for watching! ✨

[@flowerpixel]

Subscribed, all hail the chicken shrine

[@joelbowyer]

LOVE THISSSS! your channel is gonna be great 😭🫶 see you at the next one!

[@jinxedmoth]

Ahhh!! Thank you so much!! This is honestly so exciting-- I've always wanted to create content/eventually stream and this game was definitely the sign. It's been an amazing creative outlet where I can also put my strategy brain to use :) Thanks again for your support!! 🐔💖

[@kurukuruheaaa]

I'm so excited to play!

[@jinxedmoth]

I'm so excited for you to play! It's easily become one of my favorite farming sims 💖

[@annelienwasserman5209]

Great video, and you have a lovely voice, so cant wait to see more! Thank you for the tips, I have been playing a couple of days already and had no idea what to do with the shiny beads, now I am off to go feed that statue..lol

[@jinxedmoth]

@annelienwasserman5209 This comment honestly means everything to me 💖 I podcasted a few years ago and obsessed over audio quality/editing vocal tracks to the point it got so draining to make "perfect" & "radio quality" audio with manual scrubbing of sounds/imperfections I did in the software. I decided to approach KZbin with a different mindset, because if I can make at least one person happy with how I sound or the info I'm sharing, then I've already accomplished so much. While I'll always struggle with perfectionism (it's just who I've always been), it's truly comments like this that push me forward as a creative. I'll save the rest of the sap for crafting in later game, but def will look back on this comment in future milestones :) Thanks so much for your support & may your chickens bless you with hundreds of shiny beads ❤

[@natalieschweizer5664]

My best tip I haven't seen mentioned in most places: there is 2 options for what happens when you hold the button when using a tool - hold for a charge effect, or hold for a repeat action. Only hold to charge has a button assigned in the control settings when you start the game, but hold for a repeat action is more useful at the beginning of the game when you haven't unlocked any charged actions, especially for chopping trees and mining stone. I find them both useful so I have them both assigned to buttons.

[@jinxedmoth]

That’s a really good tip! I think I stumbled across this recently in the mines… it adds additional block tiles so instead of smashing one rock, it can expand further depending on your upgrade.. right? Or is this something different?

[@OhDeerLordie]

@@jinxedmoth this is something actually in the controls part of the games settings!

[@jinxedmoth]

Update: this changed my life and although I recorded audio for my next tips and tricks video yesterday, I'm going back to add this in because this deserves all the recognition 💖

[@rey-o]

Awesome tips, thanks!

[@jinxedmoth]

Thanks so much for watching!! I really appreciate your support :) 💖

[@rpederse]

Fun video! I’m happy to see that you’re planning to do some subject videos. I am waiting for someone to do one on combat, if that’s a subject that appeals to you.

[@jinxedmoth]

Thanks so much! I plan on doing a deep dive on the skill tree so the combat branch will be included :D It’s going to take some time to create & max out since combat has definitely been a weaker area for me :’)

Where the chaos began

[@jinxedmoth]

Thank you friend~ your kindness, support, and acknowledging the origins of chaos is appreciated so much!💖

[@bear3s]

This made me want to start a new load and do everything right this time lol I focused way too much on my farm layout at first and wasted a lot of energy and resources on that, also didn't make much money nor finished much of the museum bundles

[@jinxedmoth]

The beauty of Early Access is we have all the time to learn, get more efficient, and have fun in the process ^__^ but I really feel that lol I had to go back a few times in older saves to build back up!

[@Nazashca]

Great video and tips!

[@lisacarruthers9649]

I think you have the best FoM content on KZbin! Please make more! I'm pretty new to the game and your tips are helping me to optimise my game playthrough. Also your voice is not squeaky and annoying which my UK ass appreciates lol :D

[@jinxedmoth]

This is one of the nicest compliments I've received, thank you so much for saying that! Especially about my voice too, because I'm from the Midwest and sometimes I get REAL midwestern in some pronunciations like 'ranch' lolol. Glad this is optimizing your playthrough! I have SO many ideas for FoM content, just need more time-- but wrapping up my third video as we speak! Thanks again for watching 💖

[@Id54212]

Great video!

[@BeyondBrii]

@7:10 - some chests can be toggled on and off to show in this global inventory, so maybe that’s what happened accidentally?

[@MamaBear_2629]

Just to add the water chestnuts replenish every THREE days. (I have found that, as of now anyway (9/7/24) Every “forgeable” within the map will replenish in 3 days! (So berries, cattails, water chestnuts, flowers, herbs, pears, peaches, coconuts, etc. season permitting of course for some of these!)

[@jinxedmoth]

This is a really good tip-- thanks for adding onto this :) It's nice to know that Mistria has a consistent spawn rate for all forageables across the board so we all don't have to have a wiki constantly tabbed when we're plaaying/gathering a bunch of resources. Thanks for watching 💖

[@jenn.latespring]

thank u for the vid!! its pretty helpful :))

[@GamerTeah]

Very well done :)

[@DawnBurn]

ON the items not showing up from chests: You can lock chests (and I did accidentally) to keep the items safe and then they won't show.

[@Namikohoshi]

i didnt know about the chicken statue and i've already played 1 year in-game xD

[@kahvipaputyyppi]

I'm so stupid! I couldn't figure out THE SWORD cuts grass. 🤦‍♀

[@izabellam97-u9e]

Is there a way to move a barn after it’s built? I’ve been trying to make my farm a lil cutter but my poor placed barn is not helping

[@jinxedmoth]

Yes, there is! You can put your animals in the daycare, then go back to your farm where little sign on the barn/coop is and interact with it. It'll give you the option to 'destroy' ... which it won't! It will give all your materials back as well as the blueprint it takes to make it. I'll be sure to include this tip in a future video too!

[@jinxedmoth]

If it's the one at 00:02, you can unlock that in the main quests with Adeline as you help build up Mistria :)

[@AnaJulia-nh2nx]

@jinxedmoth I'm already helping her restoring the general store, but I can't get in that location just yet... dk why tho bcs I'm in fall and that shark just seems to spawn there.... 😒 but thank u so much 💘🙏🏻

You're SUPER close to getting to the beach bridge repair request. It comes right after fixing up the general store!

[@MichaelaWagner]

"before going to get wrecked" HAHAHAHA

[@FinleyHarrison-hy2sm]

People keep talking about animal beads all I get is purple dots is that similar or different?

[@jinxedmoth]

Those purple orbs are essence! When you collect a little purple orb it'll get added to a pool that you'll see in the top right corner of your screen that you can use to spend at the dragon statue on your farm. If you interact with the statue, you'll pull up a list of 7/9 skill branches (the one for mining and combat can be found in the mines). Ranching can be found at the dragon statue on your farm, and if you're not getting shiny beads, you might have to unlock that skill perk :) I have two more videos about the skill tree if you'd like a more detailed or visual guide to follow: Skill tree overview + farming: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6OXnmSOmK1jl8k Ranching skill perks: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmmbmaiDpbmDq9E Hope this helps 💖
