Ugh. 1100 streak, well over a thousand nets and a couple thousand mealworms in Lame Tempest and no Runestone. This is maddening.

I think it took me nearly 70 large nets to get the Lake Tempest runestone. Good luck...

As a corn update, I'm up to 4,300 corn now with no rune. Someday...

There seriously needs to be some sort of bad luck protection for this, especially when it gates off so much content.

There is for the hops and corn runes, but not the eggplant one.
1-10 are easily obtainable through the wishing well, though.

I so desperately wish I could buy more than just the 700 steaks I can get, this price is bananas.

Unfortunately for me, I'm still deep in corn jail, to the point where I've had nothing to do but craft stuff so my crafting is level 90 while everything else is 75, 60, and 70 lol

I hit fishing 99 while my exploring and farming were in the low 80s. Exploring just takes way longer than anything else.
You can speed it up by voiding things in WC but I feel that's a waste when you can work on masteries on the way and make tons of silver from crossbows.

I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THIS GAME WHO GETS LAID
Fishing for me lagged behind everything else until I was able to make large fishing nets. Now it's in second behind crafting and if I keep on focusing on LI fishing for cash, it'll easily overtake crafting for the lead. exploring sadly lags behind as I am only now starting to work on the WC questline.

I started 2 days ago and this game is scratching an itch, fun, and infuriating at the same time. I’m working on my sawmill but I’ve got paralysis on selling anything to try to make silver except my crafted wooden shields which isn’t much at a time. What can you sell in early game? All your fish and crops? They seem decent. I’ve done 100+ helps so far but there are just so many. I’m 37/40/28/45

I think the high count gold fish requirement quests are what finally pushes me off this game.

Same.

Was almost done with it but opted to use 3x100 of them on unlocking Pirate Cove instead.
I konda regret that as its just a tiny bit more silver per net over Large Island, while i could have had unlocked the tower by now (i have all the items needed to do the quests after the gold fish)

Pump up Mealworms to at least 200/hour, ask for more in Giveaways, they are certainly annoying but there are steps to help speed it up. Capybara Level 6 also helps, but whether you have that before getting through that step in A Towering Investment is uncertain.

If I could have them add one thing to the game it would be a pet that gives gold fish other than capybara. Make it a seal who gives different gold fish per tier. T1 could be Trout, Drum, Goldgill, Flier. T2 could be bass, catfish, ray, jack. T3 could be fin, coral, grab bag 7, and something else. Make the pet purchasable at like 75-90 fishing.

Grinding 99 farming and exploring for capybara is just unreasonable for anyone newer who needs gold fish especially with the new zone being added.

Gold Fliers are just absolutely awful in general too. There are so many items at Lake Tempest and they have such a terrible rate. 1/100 is way too rare for them.

yeah I hit a 10000 fishing streak in lake tempest and now just dumping mealworms in. and still have 100 gold fliers to go, just the worst.

I have 1600 mealworms per hour (i thought it was per day)

The mealworm generation isnt the problem, the twitch gameplay is.

My gold fish is almost exclusively from capybara. I have opened 400 grab bag 7 so far, with another 100 tomorrow (opening them in sets of 100)

Personal Help requests just went live for beta and they are random but some are pretty good. I'm definitely going to save pretty much everything that isn't a money maker now looking at some of them. Here are the ones I got today:



This one would have changed the order in which I leveled pets.



Lot of carrots but probably worth it for the cider and cheese.



This is probably the only "bad" one. Extra antlers aren't really a thing I'll ever have lying around and that's basically a large net of antlers so it's close to break even.

Looks like it has the potential to kill off of Giveaways chat by making a sink for large quantities of rare but otherwise useless items, like the exchange center did for spiders/snails/bird eggs, etc

I got five apples on credit through chat and that let me finish a quest for 500,000 silver so now I own 112 steaks worth just over 3 million silver.

Today's Community Centre is already fulfilled, you can get 10 steaks for a single trout, and you can float the steaks outside your inventory for a week by not collecting the reward.

Also don't forget to fill your storehouse too.

You can also dump some steak in your storehouse if you have the money to buy more. It’s not much but every silver helps.

I unlocked Lake Minerva and I'm making my way through the new main quests it opened up.

I'm surprisingly stuck a bit on needing 3 wine since I used all my grapes for the day to make grape juice.

I got the hops rune in less than a day.

Edit: Using my first billion on the storehouse is the best use, right?

I feel like I totally lost the personal request lottery:

Old Boot is something I don't get a lot, 165 of the 185 I have were gifted to me after I complained about the quest in help channel.


Yeah I am not gonna give you Seaweed, ATI requires way to much of that.


25 Spectacles that is between 15k and 20k stamina in Small Spring. No thanks?

Maybe I don't understand this game enough but all my three deals seem horrible. Maybe they're good for people with Tower 50 or something.
