Seed pack is worthless, as expected


Recommended Posts

there is no point using seed pack because usually you use 2-3 types of seeds to plant and use fridges as storage. 

It doesn't reduce spoilage time so you can't even store seeds in it because 40 days is nothing if you want to play the game without being crop slave

Buff seed pack. Make it stop seed spoilage. Make it crab king loot or something if you think that's overpowered.

I disagree, mostly because I do use it for its simple seed sorting feature. That might be useless if you do plant only 2 types of crops together but while I was playing as Wormwood recently, I could have like 9 different crops at the same time. And having an easy to craft (just a quick trip in caves never killed anyone, right ?) backpack with as much space than the Krampus Sack early is huge for a player that do a lot of gardening like myself.

It's simple, get the backpack, collect your crops, re-plant if you have to, then transfer the rest of seeds where you need to, whatever it is an icebox or bundles, and drop the backpack. It just saves you some back and forth you would usually do if you don't have a dedicated backpack for so much seeds. It's 100% replaceable with a Krampus Sack but it's cheaper.
I don't think it should to be better on any trail, especially spoil rate, use it to move seeds, not a stationary storage, that's not what a backpack should be for.

Seed Pack-It is worthless (for OP & me) until i subscribe to this mod.

P/s: Thanks to out talented modders, worthless items don't stay worthless for too long.

We already have something like this mod, are called tackle box and specktacler box.
And an expectackler box have 15 slots, so it's the vanilla upgrade of the seed pack.
But yea, I think both should slower the spoil time of the seeds.

oh, it doesn't slow spoilage like warly bag?

 

then what's the point?

Having a lot of slots with only seeds to use it to plant. Nothing else, just something confortable

There is already things to stop or slow down spoilage

It’s one of those doomed to fail ideas, farms are immobile, specialized seeds are already generated at the farm, the contents aren’t anything you’d want to carry with you for days.

Having it randomly need ocean items was overkill.

well it's definitely niche. a few people will use it. a lot won't use it. I don't think that's a good spot for it to sit in.

before seed pack-it was released, I suggested that there be a container for seeds better than chests and iceboxes. I thought seed pack-it would have been that answer, but it's not. It doesn't lower spoilage like ice box, and it is more expensive/harder to get than chests because the shell pieces. And lastly the tackle box really isn't much different than the seed pack-it even though the pack-it is specifically made for seeds, and the tackle box was only intended to hold tackles.

you cant wear tackle box and i dont think it takes much more time to kill a snail than farming the wood+crafting the boards needed to get the same amount of slots via chest that, again, you will not be able to wear

this backpack was made just to make confortable plating seeds so you dont have to make space in your backpack to do it. Just drop your backpack and wear the seed pack. Is confortable and, even if it will not hurt, it doesnt need fridge mechanics to be good

I honestly did forget, I’m so used to ignoring snurtles, but it’s still pretty inconvenient for something that can be replaced by a second/third backpack.

It is pretty convenient when harvesting since the seeds don't randomly go to your inventory slots. I think that is its main purpose. Just having one in your farm area and wearing it while collecting the yield doesn't hurt; it makes stuff easier. I agree that for requiring broken shells from caves/Pearl's island, it is a pretty underwhelming item but conversely there are not many greater uses for the broken shells lying around. There is no doubt that giving it a spoilage reduction would make this item infinitely more valuable though.
