Beating Stardew Valley With Only One Item

[@thetaaaa]

Wouldn't you be able to considerably speed up the Trash Route using recycling machines? If I recall correctly, refined quartz sells for 100g, and the occasional cloth from Soggy Newspaper sells for considerably more

[@SeanieDew]

yes, but i wanted to ONLY sell trash for this example, but i could try this in a future part :0

[@pbjwizard]

a gripe i had was that you only took one day's results into account for your cola calculations (colculations? colacations?). i would suggest doing several days' worth and taking the average, or just datamining their drop rate

[@SarahSmith-hh7he]

Thoughts what i thought this video was going to do aswell, I would like a video that does just this, it would be far more reasonable

[@hamburger7243]

Refined quartz sells for 50?

[@pinkapopch654]

That'd be multiple items tho

[@shion6545]

For all the trash enjoyers out there, I find the best spot is Level 100 of the mines. I usually get around 20 colas a day. There's only one fish possible to catch in that spot (the Lava Eel), which is very difficult to catch, so you normally end up dropping it and going back to trash-fishing - but if you do manage to catch one, they are one of the most valuable fish to put in fish ponds, so it's a win-win. Level 100 is quite a lot of effort, so if you want a slightly less rewarding trash experience, the other fishable spots in the mines work fine as well. (those being floors 20 and 60).

[@wonderlandzer0]

This is exactly what I did for the Linus quest!! Got my Lava Eel first try while also getting a TON of trash

[@EggsBenedict1]

Doesn't the pond in the vanilla farm work better? There's no fish in there

[@frog_goblin]

@@EggsBenedict1 i'm not sure if there's actual math on the wiki but i know that when i tried to fish up trash in the pond to do Linus' request to fish trash out of the water, it felt like it went significantly slower than it did going and fishing in the mines. it may be that the pond has a lower spawn rate in general since its Just trash so you don't get a bite on the line as often whether its trash or not. plus i think you can right click with a fish hooked and it'll just cancel the catch so it's very easy to remove the extra time trying to catch lava eels would take if you are specifically looking for just trash

[@alexsanchez7457]

​@@wonderlandzer0 lmao me too and I didnt even knew it was the best spot I just had a bad experience catching lava eels prior to that quest​

[@Cringemoment4045]

You could use the training rod to avoid it?

[@aoerdeng]

Appreciate the ingenuity, truly. But if you go the joja route, did you REALLY beat stardew valley?

[@chpninjachick1418]

Yeah, to the ground.

[@SeanieDew]

LOL

[@LyceenJPS]

My only goal in stardew is to make so much money in one day that it breaks the money counter. And I mean the one that's always on screen not the sell one over night, that one can be brocken with just some wine cheds

[@staple8708]

Yes because Pierre sucks way more than Morris (in my opinion)

[@urlocalsenpaialt3002]

[@cecilofthesea]

i watch dagnel's videos a lot, and seeing him mentioned in a seanie dew video was absolutely not something i was expecting, though i guess acnh and sdv have a significant overlap in players. much love from a fan of both

[@SeanieDew]

he is such a talent and incredibly creative!!!

[@haniicross]

haha me too

[@kerilithia]

Aren't you leveling up your foraging skill with the spring onions so you get more from gold star ones. Also the wood can sell for more with a skill.

[@SeanieDew]

REALLY good point

[@allisonroggen7773]

You can also choose a skill to get more wood per tree

[@christinef3792]

@@SeanieDew 8 hearts with the kids let you know that you ARE selling bug spring onions

[@mothmansboyfriend8021]

For the wood route, you could always select the forester profession at foraging level 5 and get 25% more wood with each tree, which would cut down on the overall amount of trees needed. Also with the spring onions, you could probably cut the time needed down further once you get to foraging level 10 and pick the botanist profession, making every onion you pick up iridium quality and either 16g or 80g with the spring onion mastery, bringing it down to only about 9 years (you'd probably need at least a year to get the foraging skill level up as well as 8 hearts with Jas and Vincent), so it could probably be done in under 10 years total, making it equal to the joja cola route.

[@alexandersrensen5131]

10 in-game years but probably way less real world time since the spring onion days would be way shorter only at most a minute

[@stannumowl]

Don't forget about double harvesting. That's about another 2 years less. So, like 8 or 7 years I guess

[@Viixie]

A Seanie Dew upload on Boxing Day? What a treat. Time to grab the holiday chocolate and watch

[@mongler3452]

You can also buy a starfruit from the loua event-

[@SeanieDew]

didn’t even THINK of this!!!

[@krampusklaws2238]

Th only issue is how do you afford this? It costs 3000 g for that but if you can only make money from star fruit how do you go from the 500 g starting funds to 3000? You get 500 g from your parents so you can afford one star fruit seed from the travelling merchant, but the Luau star fruit is out of reach.

[@lizard1255]

@@krampusklaws2238 become friends with Pierre and Lewis. They will send you money in the mail.

[@nathankujawa3404]

Dwarf scrolls sell for 1g so if you wanted to make it extremely long have fun in the mines grinding for dwarf scrolls

[@bengal4047]

Oh dear god

[@rkbbandy782]

The spring onion route would also potentially be even longer due to the egg festival which takes out one day of the month.

[@EgansChannel]

you can avoid the events by just waiting a couple hours

[@lizard1255]

@@EgansChannel you also get out of the festival at 10pm, which is more than enough time to run to cindersap and pick up the spring onions.

[@victory8928]

But egg festival doesn’t lock put cindersap.the flower dance does though

[@tycoonterror]

Driftwood in the wood chipper would help to speedup the trash grind

[@alyssa5948]

I love dagnel. This is like a weird little cross over

[@EnableTheGame]

For the spring onions, you could forage for other things or cut down wood (spring onions don't give exp) to level up your foraging skill, as the lvl 10 all iridium quality applies to spring onions, and that together with spring onion mastery can make them sell for a decent amount of money

[@SlyPearTree]

Spring onions give 3xp according to the wiki.

[@qwart22]

@@SlyPearTree can confirm have picked them up

[@thirtyoneorten]

do you think it would take longer (in real time) to fish for joja or forage for spring oninons?

[@SeanieDew]

i think fishing for the colas would take longer, since for the onions you’re just going to Cindersap and picking up onions

[@rorysmistakes]

let's not forget the fact that with 8 hearts with vincent and jas you get TRIPLED spring onions. this makes it only 30 years!

[@Sydthebutton]

I’ve already watched this video but I came back to say, I tried to find the best place to find trash for Linus’ special request, and turns out the fastest way to get trash was in the mine lakes! There are places I didn’t test so maybe that’ll change once I test more spots but so far that was the easiest way to fish up trash :)

[@officialdonkey]

LOVE dagnel!! cannot believe i saw him mentioned in a seaniedew vid!

[@Melo.Bemelo]

5:27 he started a fres shave

[@njdaninja1855]

[@mxaidanwood2703]

wait have you seen dagnel’s video where he starts with a paper tiger and trades on nookazon until he can pay off a house loan? it’s so good and you should see if you can try and do something like that in stardew!

[@Pepe-yi9th]

OK, but you start out with 500 g. So, how do you get the money for the first rare seed?

[@ahzayoc1207]

You could wait to get a letter from your dad that gives you 500g. For some reason the letter is only sent to female farmers (if I’m remembering correctly)

[@cullenlatham2366]

gifting to villagers is not selling, and lewis and pierre occasionally send money to friends... Still likely to delay the process by a year, though, simply by limitations to growing friendship. By the same logic, you could try and rules lawyer into allowing help and bulletin board quests... Merging individual funds into a shared pool on multiplayer could also work.

[@lizard1255]

@@ahzayoc1207 you are correct. Female farmers get letters from dad, who gives you money, and Male farmers get letters from mom, who sends things like cookies.

[@kochathefat327]

tea saplings :D They are fairly easy to get early game and they sell for 500 each. I managed to get all the money that I needed by my first fall.

[@oldandstillhere]

This is an awesome idea, and I’m going to try it. I can get it by foraging, so yeah, sounds great!

[@king_floppa740]

"You can also use 2800 chicken statues" is my favourite line in history

[@bittendonut5186]

Does catching trash increase fishing level? If so it will probably take less time than 11 years, since with lvl-ups maximum catch time shortens. Also since you tested amount of joja cola you getting per day for only a single day there is high margin of error, considering you got 6-7 pieces of other trash it might be the case that you just got unlucky and average joja yeild numbers were underestimated.(it is also possible that you got really lucky and got way more cola than you're supposed to)

[@appleschloss]

I wonder how much crabpots could speed up the trash route

[@sevret313]

None of the trash you can get with the crabpots are worth anything.

[@ianweston310]

You can also purchase a Starfruit from Pierre during the Luau, so you can Seed Maker that without ever even contributing to the museum.

[@ettack-]

At 11:09 was the part that made me laugh the most.

[@ettack-]

[@tjd6801]

couldnt you also work on foraging level till you got the perk that lets everything you pick be iridium quality? wouldnt iridium quality spring onions, with jas and vincent's ability make it actually feasible? if of course tedious and still long, but not impossibly so?

[@klawypl]

but, what about smelting trash in to quartz torches etc? how that would impact it?

[@Easasera]

I love Dagnel's challenges and it's fun thinking about how they'd play out in Stardew Valley^^

[@pooinzoo]

you should do stardew valley but it’s zoomed in all the way idk if it’ll be good but ya

[@HelloMxMath]

I mean if you are going to spend years getting spring onions, you may as well spend some time getting your foraging up during the first year. If your numbers are accurate, you are looking at about 9 years (maybe 10 if you are looking at only selling the iridium ones). More testing needed of course.

[@sadie_1840]

yess i love dagnel's videos! (love this video too)

[@Avelia-videofr]

I'd say the worst way to pay out the warehouse is like : only using the trash can and no other item and only sell something stupid like cactus fruit or a specific dish

[@hologramstumbled]

2:30 i threw a starfruit in the seed maker but it gave me an ancient fruit seed instead

[@clinthamilton1713]

5:28 “a fresh shave”…

[@АннаИзвекова-г4ц]

Huh. I personally fish out sometimes 3 to 5 joja cola back to back and then couple here and there in the small pond. But I play on 4 corners farm and it's already 1.6 update, so maybe something changed. I fish trash for glasses when I need refined quartz, it's easier and quicker than going to the mines haha

[@TonyEjerJiang]

Honestly, the spring onions strat sounds like a good idea, since you can sleep off rest of the days and years when you are not picking nor on the way of picking the spring onions.

[@audreychambers3155]

I was going to suggest crab pots for the Joja cola. Turns out it's the only piece of trash they can't be fished up in this manner.

[@sashakucher261]

Using joja cola to win seems like a funny idea. Do it!

[@hireathlavender1073]

actually, for the trash it could be done faster, the more you cast our your rod the more likely you will be to not get trash, also, if you use crab pots, I believe they also can end up getting joja cola, but, they require bait, but if you get the fishing talent where crab pots don't require bait, then that's out of the way

[@rgrinvalds1553]

Best place to fish trash is by the washhouse where the water goes out

[@rowbo_7749]

Hey seanie got this idea for a video so basically you try to beat Stardew by only selling one item I was thinking joja cola would be an interesting item to try this with idk

[@atacstringer8573]

The worst part about the cola method is look probably plays a part in it too meeting some days you might get five some days you might get six and other days you might get to that's just a guess I don't know if it actually affects trash or not

[@YourSoul83OO]

You can also purchase a single starfruit at the luau for 3000g from pierres, that's another way ig
