Stardew Valley is usually very calming, but today we're going deep inside the Skull Caverns for a tutorial on how to climb down deep-- without ever using an Iridium Pickaxe or Bombs! Can I make it to Floor 100 of Skull Caverns?

This man has gotten further in the Skull Cavern with no pickaxe or Bombs than I have in main playthrough which is on Year 3 Lmao

When did you get the bus fixed

[@sujurean]

Since you gave yourself the provision that you can build staircases if you have enough stone in your inventory, you should also be allowed to build a bomb when you're soft locked at the entrance. It just makes equal amount of sense to me, considering the original rules of the challenge presented were to just not have a bunch of staircases or bombs to go down the skull caverns but you allowed yourself to build staircases when you really needed them 😂.

[@Alex.S.1]

thought the same thing. dont know if that would make it to easy, but at least you should be allowed to use the bombs the monsters drop.

[@serenitymoon4432]

I agree. I think using bombs dropped from enemies would be too "easy" (not that this challenge is easy lol) but as you said crafting bombs feels fair

[@Jaspanda_P]

he didn't say staircases as a rule, he just said he isn't going to bring staircases the rules is no bombs, axe, or explosive ammo

[@Deep_phobias]

The thing is bombs are MUCH easier to farm up, I mean I can farm enough for 5 bombs on one floor, then the challenge is moot. Staircases on the other hand need a large amount of stone to craft, more than can be gathered on one floor alone even with a pick and bombs.

[@RazzleMazzleTazzle]

He specifically stated that he couldn’t use bombs but only said he couldn’t bring staircases in with him.

[@ArgonMatrix]

The pain of being blocked from progressing by rocks at the start of a floor due to being unable to break them thanks to a self-imposed challenge is extremely unique and specific, yet I'm able to empathize wholeheartedly. Really impressed to see how far you were able to make it in the end!

83 is absolutely further than i've gotten just going at it normally. this is absolutely bonkers, in the best way possible

[@coltonlinch7076]

My average floors is 40 but my max was 95

[@arjc5714]

As someone who basically only uses the napalm ring to cave dive, this is hilarious. “Oh my god this is going so well!” *surprised pikachu* It’s the best ring in the game, it makes the Qi mines trivial. Qi levels + monster musk means I use my pickaxe once every dozen floors or so, especially if I have the vampiric enchant because then the monsters are destroying the rocks and healing me simultaneously.

[@ljmacdonald6068]

I combined the napalm ring and slime charmer ring so now finding ladders is easy

Man the napalm ring is one of my favs (I'm awful with a slingshot so bombs and the napalm ring are my go-tos for cave diving) glad to see it getting some love here

[@munirahussain8131]

Challenge should be “how far can I make it in Skull Caverns with only what I get from inside” only items you can bring in with you are food, coffee, your weapon of choice, and whatever “accessories” are equipped

This was nice to listen to while running skull caverns myself

[@uselesscomputerowner8808]

I love playing your videos in the background while I play Stardew

[@lilliansimonesebastian264]

I know! I always play DF or SeanieDew while going to the mines/skull caverns. It makes it a lot less stressful, since I get scared of skull caverns.

[@percy3557]

lol this is kind of just how i run skull caverns normally 😅 i love setting up the enemies in good spots to use as bombs

Unrelated to this video but every time you sell mixed seeds it makes me so angry .. 0g fam

Skull caverns are super tricky to be fair!! Take lots of high energy & health foods, good weapons, bombs, and honestly? I did the skull cavern quests with staircases and came back late game after forging and enchanting my Galaxy weapons to get stuff to work towards perfection

[@lordarthur2165]

Bro, I recommend savings all your jades and rubies for trading them for staircases and spice eals on the desert. And bringing a lot of bombs

[@uhhhhhmicrowave]

as a beginner at skull caverns I knew you needed bombs and staircases and buffs so on my first try at skull caverns I got it to floor 83

Gonna be a banger

Hey do you know if it is possible to complete cc + missing bundle without ever upgrading your house? I haven't seen anyone try this challenge

[@SiixVTuber]

The only thing you'd need the house for is to cook, which you can bypass with a cookout kit from leveling foraging. Edit: actually I forgot about the aged wine. There isn't any way to get aged wine outside of using casks in the cellar so it wouldn't be possible.

[@TulipVoid]

[@josie8997]

​@@SiixVTuberaged wine is also not necessary bc the hidden bundle needs 5 out of 6 to complete

[@velvetbutterfly]

My video froze at 8:56 It took me a minute before I realized

[@Promatim]

So what are the tips us average players don't know? I noticed you opening the menu at the start of every floor - is that just to get your bearings, or is it a time save in some other way?

[@transcendently]

In the mines/caverns, time continues ticking during the black screen when you move between floors. In singleplayer, you can prevent this by pausing right as you ladder down. For normal players the amount of time saved is probably negligible, but if you stretch this out to the max and have literal hundreds of staircases, you can get a day in game to last several hours in real life, as opposed to approximately 20 minutes. Hope that helps!

[@JasminMiettunen]

He also took screenshots to check the entire floor for strairs and monsters

[@NINjaboy20111]

[@RACOONAFIED]

Check daily luck, if it's not a pyramid or a star drop then stairs/holes will spawn rarely, it does effect the game that much so you should Def check for that + buy stairs with jade st the desert trader :)

[@KiritoNoiharaQuartz]

Mummies arent really unkillable, you just need bombs to kill them, which you challenged yourself not to use so i guess you do need the special weapon 😂

[@poggle_Galaxy]

Hi

[@BrimstoneMoth]

But .. basically you did used bombs... because of the explosion the weapon does... when the enemy dies... So basically 30 seconds in already failed... O.o

[@mirjanbouma]

No, that's not the same as using bombs.

[@tamakiamajiki6290]

[@abigailr3250]

ouch

[@nananakeson]

I'm pretty sure you can clean up a little bit the strategy, even if you get a stair you should probably kill enemies that are close and don't cost much time, since you could get a shaft and also get more stone that way

[@maysee2515]

I kept thinking the same thing

[@Dan_Cantu]

I didn't know the treasure room shaft trick! I'm going to try that out later today and see how many I get.

[@thenailsageofgeo4975]

Nice! I’d love to see how far you could get with time turned off

[@Wooorbie]

8:54 I'm not sure I I understood the rules But I think even If you can't bring staircases you can make them And you had over 100 stone EDIT: yep he did that

[@makaelamcmahan6899]

Vid idea: mod that makes it rain everyday. See how much of the community center you can get done in an hour 😄

[@cactusyu1584]

Cool idea in theory but you can’t activate the community center when it’s raining :(( so unless he was able to stop the rain for one day or it’s automatically unlocked it’s not really possible

[@MossyBallerina]

@@cactusyu1584 Maybe instead use a mod to get a huge stack of rain totems? That way you can just not use one on the day you unlock the community center

Dose anyone know how Sean got the ring that makes things explode im kinda noob at stardew

no worries dude we were all new once. its called the napalm ring and u can get it from the adventurers guild after killing 250 serpents :)

[@eviecrimson]

The rings I usually have on/with me are a luck ring mixed with a iridium band, a luck ring mixed with a slime charmer ring, a luck ring mixed with the Phoenix ring, and a burglar ring mixed with a napalm ring, I use the iridium band/luck one plus the burglar ring/napalm, then once I start getting really low on health I swap to Phoenix/luck and /slime charmer/luck, and I have a vampiric infinity sword, so you'll be pretty much safe no matter what, plus I bring like 400 blackberries/Salmon berries

where did the new video go :(

[@armythecat]

The Napalm Ring by itself can kill mummies because they explode as soon as they "Die", you don't really need to enchant any weapon for that I have only the Napalm Ring on a Dragontooth Shiv and kinda realized by complete chance that they die when they are killed Edit: Ignore everything I've said, after the mummy didn't explode on the video and somehow I have the Crusader enchantment on my weapon and completely forgot about that

[@LavaMongoose]

is explosive ammo considered bombs
