How do I even send someone one of these potatoes?

I'm assuming I need a higher level to see my inbox? Not sure but it says I have a potato but I can't get to it.

edit: Nevermind, have to actually go to the post office in town

I'm close to being able to afford an Orchard, should I grab that as soon as I can afford it?

Go to the post office and get those 5 hot potatoes you've got, your mailbox is full. I'll drop you some orange juice once your mailbox isn't full.

How do I know what mailbox password items are safe to sell for silver? I need another 500k or so to get my sawmill.

I’ll eventually update the OP with little stuff like this, but tip for new folks: when you hit Level 20 Farming, you’ll unlock Mailbox Passwords at the Post Office. By entering a password, you can earn lots of neat stuff as a new player, ranging from stuff you’ll need for quests, some bunches of Silver and Gold, and items from past seasonal events. One of these, Candy (from the Halloween event) will sell for a huge chunk of change, and can make a huge difference in getting your Sawmill up and running and starting your Silver engine running. Normally it is not advised to sell items like that that are hard to acquire and may be needed for future quests, but getting the Sawmill as early as possible is so important, and the Candy is relatively common as far as event items go, that I’m hard pressed telling anyone to hold on to it for a hypothetical when it is so useful in the present. All of the Mailbox Passwords can be found in the Library, check out the Mailbox Passwords and Spoilers pages for all of them.

For those just starting, Ancient Coins are listed by your silver and gold, but they're an item not a currency so they're limited by your item storage total. Pay attention when turning in chores as they reward a decent amount of them everyday.

I've just been doing some manual fishing now and then to try and get all the streaks up for cheevo points or w/e. Including a mechanic that I can do endlessly by buying bait and manually clicking is the exact sort of poo poo I hate in an idle game.

Too much clik.

Also I got all my runestones (following the quest) up to corn now. If I'm lucky I'll get the corn runestone while doing all these quests and won't have to specifically grind for it after.

I keep seeing people mentioning "The Quest" which one is it? A way forward 1 is the only quest I have that needs a runestone.

Kalman posted:

Sea dragons are rare (and are used in a couple late game quests) but I think CC completion is more that barracuda are a common result from Large Island fishing so it’s easy to donate a bunch to pump up your donations amount to work towards those achievements.

That makes sense, I kinda figured you couldn't mail anything obtained for a locked down zone.

You can also occasionally get small screws from your ironworks. Upgrading it does not increase that chance though, so just buy it and leave it alone.

Someone can check my math on this, but to receive one of each runestones from pets in addtion to the Red and Green Dragons at level 6 you also need the Owl, Snake, Frog, and Squirrel at 6 to fill in the gaps.

Is there any way to get peaches other than PR rewards?

High five, friend. I'm working on the 60% quest myself.

Looks like they're mailable, but other than 1 per PR the only other option looks like seasonal quests. 10 peaches for one juice makes the PR reward seem useless.

The chances of getting 10 worthwhile or even tolerable PHRs in a row is slim so 1 peach per successful request is awful.

Some are asking for 100x Salt which is a big nope, there needs to be a timer for these to fall off and peach juice is just a way to speed it up

It doesn't help that the dev was in global describing clearing them as a "gold sink"

yup, there's also another quest i just got where the only way to get anything is a level 6 owl

The Owl is for one of the collector quests which basically refund half of the level 6 upgrade. But owl at level 5 is best for honey.

The anglerfish is required for Pirate Cove though and level 6 macaw is extremely worth it anyways.

you'll need 100 for ATI, and it'll give you that many back once you climb a few levels in the tower

don't spend 60 on strange companions until you do that, it's a trap

honestly the spiked shells/seaweed/water lilies were worse because each large net I threw in was like 8m silver down the drain

For the record, I threw 1000 mealworms at Emerald Beach and didn't get a single Spiked Shell, so their drop rate is worse than Golden Fliers.

I held out hope that a day or 2 of manual fishing could get me around wasting large nets, but it's the only way short of winning the PHR lottery.

yeah once you have the geckos/sea dragons you need immediately pivot to dumping salt into the wells for spiked shells because the rate on those is brutal

So keep at least 600 salt around and dump the rest into the well, 50% a toss is better than the fishing drops, I need to upgrade my well to 9 tosses

What's up corn rune buddy. I was a little luckier and got it after ~4500 corn, but the next quest needs runestone 16 so I'm back to planting hops :sigh:

At least these grow considerably quicker, and even if my luck is atrocious I know I'll get a runestone from the 99 bottles quests eventually.

99 Bottles LXXX rewards Runestone 16, I hope you get it before then.
