The ULTIMATE Don't Starve Shipwrecked Survival Guide

[@dreadnought2024]

A lot of work in this video. Well done. I have a couple of suggestions: Try and get a miner's hat and boat lantern as soon as possible. Concentrate on putting down wood flooring in your base before monsoon. The more the better. Put a sandbag in the "center" of the puddles near your base. This will stop the puddles from spreading.

[@polarlotus]

Some good advice!

17:59 I'm sorry but there is actually something very valuable about repopulating the Doydoys. So due to the fact that the species is near extinction the naughtiness you get from killing them depends on how many are in the world. 1-2 gives you 50 naughtiness, 3-4 gives 10, 5-10 gives 4 and 11-20 gives 1. Now here's the thing the game will check whatever instance of the world you are on to see how many are left in the world. So if you have a Doydoy farm, take two to the volcano and or to another DLC the game will see that as there only being 2 left in the world. If you then kill them you'll get two instant Krampus spawns which can be an easy way to farm for the Krampus sack.

[@royrthedoy]

pretty cool idea and also thinking about it now that means u can have 20 doydoys in all 3 dlcs and the valcano and all 3 caves which if true is kinda funny

[@The_Dragon_Tiamat]

@@royrthedoy Thanks, although it's not my idea I got it from Vox.

[@rellimarual]

Many players don’t seem aware that the horned helmet will protect you from poisonous bites from mosquitoes, spiders, snakes, scorpions etc. granted the helmet is challenging to get because you have to kill a water buffalo to get its horn, and they are much harder to hunt in shipwrecked then in ROG. But they are great because you don’t have to drop your backpack in the water to put on a seashell suit, if you hear a mosquito during monsoon season.

[@Amy_Huntley]

Shipwrecked has to be one of my favorite DLCs to watch being played. It's familiar enough to feel like DS, but so many different things to keep it feeling new and exciting. Can't wait to see the next video!

[@Jukanella]

Surprisingly a lot of new and useful information you got here. Especially Sealnado and Monsoon guides. I love Shipwrecked and played it a lot while strugling with Sealnado and Hurricane. Thank you for your great work!

[@ozlemsahin8526]

There aren't many solo dont starve videos on KZbin so it was nice to see you. It's a great guide, I'm waiting for the same one in Hamlet. Some advice: Kill the crocodiles using tooth traps, if you are too lazy to do so, wait for them to move on to other creatures (buffalo, jellyfish, monkeys, spiders). By the way, if you want to find the walking cane early, use the slot machine. The probability of getting 3 gold coins is not small at all. If you can't find the gold to power the machine, wander around the forest biomes and collect the gold left by the pirate birds. If you have a treasure bag, it always leave you gold. (The walking cane also increases the ship's speed.)

[@aaww1010]

I played original don’t starve and it’s DLC for years and your guides are super helpful There’s a few things I did not know about until watching your videos.

[@Strawberry67252]

This honestly deserves more views because this helped me a lot.

[@Toadkillah]

I've personally found ballphins the best way to deal with crocodogs (while at sea) and sea hounds. They aggro onto hostile creatures imediately and are pretty fast. Find a pod and they'll liquify any hound waves in a flash. In my perma world I dotten one end of my island in ballphin palaces as a quick safety net. I constantly had around 20 ballphins hanging around. While they can't solo a boss they can chip it down quite a bit. I found out the hard way when I accidentally led the tiger shark to my camp. I was eating on my boat or something and she spawned but wasn't hostile, just kinda hanging around. I hadn’t seen her in a while and figured she either despawned or aggroed onto sonething else. She was apparently still around and followed me home, I didn't even notice until my ballphins went balistic and charged her. She took them out no problem but they got some good hits in so it was pretty easy to finnish her off even while at sea. I was gonna ignore her originally but I got pretty salty when she killed all my "guard dogs" even if they instigated it.

[@Random-user22]

the shipwrecked equivalent to the beefalo and pigs lol

[@ll1ain0]

I love the aesthetics of it

[@Zman26448]

I’m beginning to feel these tutorials are more of a “let’s play” then a tutorial itself however they do seem very helpful! I feel like It may work best if I play along with you in these tutorials as you go cause I have a bad memory and will forget everything

[@Scenedreamer17]

I almost always have notes near me when I do play as I also forget everything lol. I list all my objectives per season and that helps me a TON as I often take a few months of a hiatus from the game (due to work/ life stuff ya know)

[@tylerking9507]

I like using a bunch of obsidian axes for farming logs to waterproof islands cause obsidian isn't too hard to amass anyway

[@polarlotus]

Fair enough! You can really get a ton of the stuff if you trawl in dry season

[@tylerking9507]

@polarlotus I survived the volcano without appeasement, and I got 1 and 1/2 stacks

Thanks for teaching me how to survive another dlc, you are the best

[@seterseter9352]

an actual good guide. Ty sealnado one shot me cuz other guides had outdated info

[@Jaghall1]

Good content dude! So refreshing to see SW guides after so much time has passed. One thing he did not mention (understandably), was the brainy matter. He sailed by it at 15:45. Other than being an insanely good sanity source (you do have to stand really close to it), it produces one of the strongest items in the Dont Starve series: the Brain of Thought, mainly OP if you're playing a SW-Hamlet-RoG world. This item basically gives you access to any and all crafting recipes accross all games, provided you have the resources to build them (main reason why I understand Polar didn't mention it, it's not as useful in standalone SW). Definitely worth a mention!

[@polarlotus]

Yeah I didn't cover the brain of thought in this video, but I made sure to in my followup video! :D

[@averagedoomenjoyer1232]

I have found your channel thanks to your Hamlet guide and subscribed after watching this one. Keep it up, there not many solo DS KZbinrs out there. 👍

[@kettwood7248]

1. crocodog need to be kited once than is stunlockable. rest of horde is not tho 2. swordfish kite is 1 strike cs boats are slow to start move, unless yu have kofee 3. build that 3*3 or 4*4 cobblestone square for volcano times, shadow of aim is is as visible as on sand and have speed bonus 4. dombrell and umbrella heat defense adds, also straw hat and umbr - if no dumbrella somehow 5. Dodging procedure for volcano is simple. closeup max, look at your legs. sand still untill shadow arrives, there is only one at a time, so step one block aside and get back as it falls. nu run erraticly. If yu need to get somewhere - move camera little higher and look block ahead of yu. little fruther ahead if on boat an so yu can avoid an erruptuon by simble swimming forward beware of thoos that come direct on your way 6.always have a complete boat(or all three - stadard armored and encrusted)) for some bad cases 7. build 3*3 of floordoard or cobblestone or magma turf and pluk 2 eyeplats in middle. as they grow - come and set eyes on fire to collect ash 8. three cactus around a snailstone is ulimited source of morsels and blue feathers in storm season, will keep work if put seed in middle of it. magma turf need to be removed after planting cactus. flowers for butter add too.

Does anybody else find the volcano area useful outside? If you’re in a boat? The camera seems to zoom out quite a lot and I can avoid the volcano eruption that way.

[@slug_of_cats]

not stunlocking croccodogs... is that a consol feature that you can't stunlock them there? because you can in pc

[@polarlotus]

You can stunlock crocodogs, kiting is just more useful imo when you get swarmed and are still using the spear The gameplay was also pre-mega update which just came out for console edition but I think you were able to stunlock them there too, I just forgot to mention it because I am silly

[@Zman26448]

Any tips for exploring the ocean so I can find areas of land quicker? I heard circling the islands you explored already can help rather then straying very far away from them

[@polarlotus]

I would say pay attention to the color of the water, when it is dark (deep ocean) land is nowhere near you, medium is somewhat close and obviously light blue (shore) is close to an island, there is no ultimate method for finding islands but I find that they generally are spaced out evenly

[@Zman26448]

@@polarlotus I actually found out from another tutorial that sailing along the edge of the medium and deep sea does help a lot. Thanks though.

[@rellimarual]

Many people find exploring the huge stretches of ocean to be boring, but there are so many different ways to approach a shipwrecked base, depending on which character you choose. For example, it is very fun to make a water base for Woodlegs.

[@NatanStarke]

I love hurricane season lightnings and looks gorgeous. Its a nice change but i can see your point, its more focused on survival which is easy for us veterans, without many bosses and so on, should be caves and underwater caves with more boses or even ruins, ds could use all of its cards in 1 map.

[@lewissalter9665]

the only gripe i have about the video is how you say unveil... a veil (un-vale-d, a vale being a rather pleasant meadow... as in "in the valley",, said in a welsh accent XD) is a shroud of fabric, like a table cloth. to unveil something is to remove the cover and reveal the object. i know you are pronouncing your best as i can tell you are clever... but for the love of god, please pronounce it un-vale-d. its a cloth, not meat XD the rest of the video is great though, so please dont take it as me being a knob.
