I get that you can get tons more iridium by staying in skull cavern until you pass out. On the other hand, the personal sense of shame from losing a pass-out-less run is much, much worse.

[@slwrabbits]

Yeah, I have the return sceptre, so I just teleport out around 1:30 AM. Win win for me.

[@lottipenta462]

[@nattapakniranittikul]

As I have optimize my play, it is impossible for me to not pass out. I always pass out on early day of game as I know that I lose nothing as I have 0 gold and I'll level up my profession so I'll wake up full energy regardless.

[@bigquazz3955]

It's not hard to avoid passing out. In an already easy game, that's an incredibly low bar for a type of challenge run.

[@BoojieD]

[@omeraknoflazca6683]

Additionally, if you want to use your tools while they are being upgraded, you can add a friend to your farm, have them put their tools in a chest and then use those until you get your tools back. Especially useful for watering cans.

[@darkgespielt2.059]

the forester profession is still good for the earlier game, after that its worth changing because right there you dont need as much wood as in the beginning when you wantet to place duzens of kegs and build buildings around your farm

[@Rakso5809]

Love the rabbits! They're also cuter than the sheep!

[@dartimes6048]

Actually geode crushers are more time efficient as not only do you save a lot of time and effort of lugging a full inventory of artifacts from Clint’s to your chests you also save bunch of time. One coal is the equivalent of 10 wood if I were to use charcoal kilns. I can convert 1 hardwood into 5-10 regular wood with the wood chipper (96% chance) or 15-20 wood (2% chance).

[@Arrowdodger]

I do not care for sheep either, yeah, though in addition to pigs and ostriches, goats are also pretty worthwhile in their own way.

Sheep are actually more profitable then ostriches

[@izheanfruit]

Considering they cost 8,000g each, and their produce makes slightly less than that of an ostrich which cost nothing but time. I would say ostriches are much more profitable, but I would love to hear why you think the opposite!

[@zaineoakley5555]

@@izheanfruitwith shepherd sheep produce wool daily and with max friendship and mood you would be getting iridium quality wool that produce 1.5 cloth in a loom would be 854 g/d (rancher prices) vs 10 iridium Mayo with artisan that’s 760 g/d but shepherd also has a hidden buff so you are more likely to get iridium quality wool then ostrich egg 987 g/d with professions switching

[@izheanfruit]

@@zaineoakley5555 Oooo I wasn't aware of this. Although I agree in a vacuum, that sheep would be more profitable. You have so many other uses for artisan instead, such as, for pigs making truffle oil or making wine and potentially honey if you're on that train. Profession swapping in my opinion is way overvalued because it is still 10,000g everytime you do it which definitely adds up over time. And in the vacuum that was discussed, sheep still require an initial 8,000g so it would still take longer for the sheep to pay out with a minimal 100g profit margin.

[@timmasters1195]

Iridium truffles sell for less than truffle oil if you have Artisan, so the advice about the foraging upgrades makes no sense. Hardwood is a way more valuable resource than purple leeks etc.

[@ninjasuikai]

Now I'm not a huge "min-maxer" in this game, but if you have a ton of pigs there's probably merit in the foraging perks because that would be a LOT of trufles, and oil machines cost resources to craft too at 20 hardwood each. Can get pretty expensive material wise as opposed to just getting a stack of purple truffles (since a lot will be doubled) to sell without hassle. If you only have a few pigs though then yeah it's probably not worth it.

[@timmasters1195]

@@ninjasuikai if you use the other perk and do a little bit of desert farming you can get hundreds of hardwood tbh. That's what makes it good, you get hardwood on basically every tree.

[@slwrabbits]

Once I've got a stable for my horse and have upgraded my house, I don't have much use for hardwood. So while I like to go with the additional wood and hardwood early game, I usually switch a couple years into the game. The nicest thing about iridium forage is that it stacks more easily.

[@timmasters1195]

@@slwrabbits fair enough. I tend to make a lot of hoppers and other farm stuff that needs hardwood.

It depends on the farm and the farm layout. Not only that, but the villagers do love some forageble items. Sandy, Sam, Linus, Gus, Robin, Krobus, and George all come to mind if you want to befriend them quickly.
