Couple questions as someone who hasnt played in a while.


Recommended Posts

Did they change to where you cant give cooked eggs to a bird now?

Does bearger spawn on a set day?

Are there any good guides or resources to get caught up on the new content? I played a lot before the lunar and water stuff. Just came back. Bit overwhelming and im not sure where to start. I need to learn lunar/sea/farming stuff, but is there anything else?

What are some of the best food methods nowadays? Im playing Wolfgang. Unsure if farming potatoes is worth. Of course theirs the bunny/pig farms. But is there anything else i should know?

a good way to have an idea of what new things are in the game is watching the last trailers, they have gameplay scenes that will guide you

about how to farm them, just learn how to locate the new areas.

Spoiler

 

There is a new cave biome near the blue mushtree biome where you can farm different things like living logs, thulecite, moon rock and moon glass (used in the new island), later on you will need an opal (deconstructing a moon caller staff) to activate the archives that you found there to unlock new recipes.

A big island (moon island) now spawns in the sea, you can find it easily if you notice in the map flat zones at the end of the biomes, if 2 biomes make an arc that has flad arms (like if a meteor destroyed that part of the land) means that the moon island is in front of that biome. There you will be able to mine rocks, moonrocks, 2 new food sources (kelp that you can plant in water and stonefruit bushes for land), glass, dragonfruits via warm saladmanders, etc. Also here is where you can craft celestia tab tier stuff

another little island spawns in the sea, you can find it if you read bottle messages, there lives pearl which will need some help to makes her life in the island more confortable. Help her and you will unlock new recipes for lures (new fishing mechanic for sea fish) and other usefull stuff, if you reach the maximum frindship with her she will gift you her most loved treasure that will allow you to continue the moon arc

2 new bosses, one raid boss related to pearl and another deerclops tier boss. The raid boss is found by exploring the sea, having one of the recipes from the archives (mentioned earlier) helps you to find him. The other boss is summoned by sealing near shoals (marked in the map as a circle made of fish) or by fishing the fish found there, his loot is very useful for the new farming mechanic and for sailing in general.

in the map will spawn 3 biomes called waterlogged biome which each one will have 3 giant trees that you can replant in the water, a new creature similar to grass gekkos that you can kill for tons of leafy meat or relocate to a safe place to farm twigs and grass (they respawn if the biome is empty), figs for new recipes and crookpot foods, a new kind of spider and a renewable way of getting tons of fireflies since each tree spawns a lot of them

Bunny farm nerfed now. You can simply farm tons of potato, just fertilize it by manure, or plant with tomato.

Do they just not drop as many carrots now? Or whats the deal? Was planning on using them to do bee queen but its hard to expand with no carrots dropping.

Im guessing bunny farm isnt a viable method anymore unless i farm the carrots to expand? My first boss run.

Ill work on learning how to farm then.

Going to look on youtube for some wolfgang based boss runs. Figured he would be a good char to start back with since i forgot basically everything to do with bosses.

Also i know there were some volt goat changes, can a goat still be relocated and create a new herd at a new spot?

yes, the only change i recall is that now you can create new herds by hunting while raining in the oasis dessert

Did i also hear correctly that quick drop is now added?

Also do you feel that farming for carrots in order to expand bunny farms is still a viable method to kill bee queen? If not what would be the best option? Just trying to re-familiarize myself with bosses and methods.

And only at the spring.

Bunny now drop just one thing: one meat or one carrot or one tail.

Also you can craft and cook things by just holding mouse button, no need to spam.

I think it is, and would argue with farms you can get the carrots quicker without needing to wrap them. The process of getting puffs and getting carrots is just separated now.

yes, is a good method but, as others said, now is more efficient to plant carrots rather than making bunnywars

as best method... depends of how do you like to play the game, if you like bunnymens go for them and you might enjoy the new farming system

What makes honey such a good food source? Are potatoes worth farming as wolfgang considering the new favorite food thing? Just wanting to know the current meta when it comes to food.

What do you mean by you can get them quicker without needing to wrap them?

Thanks for all the help everyone. Always remembered this was a kind community.

Also are there any good youtube videos/guides/playthroughs that show all the new metas and such for the things im asking, boss killing, food, etc.

Just search any dst guide

They are often outdated. Im asking for playthroughs and guides focused on the newer things. I know Beards channel, but theres just so many videos i have no idea where to start. Seeing someone play efficiently using new metas is what i really need.

Even if you don’t plan to play as them: I would highly advise learning the Reworked characters new found abilities just for Coop Purposes.

For example: People are still Banning Willow and Wes and Webber’s out of their servers because they’re likely idiots who don’t read patch notes to find out those characters have been drastically changed.

Willow now spawns with a Teddy Bear that when she is low on sanity will enlarge and is designed to kill every shadow it sees making her the single best nightmare fuel farmer in the game.. Yet people ban her because she spawns with a lighter- News flash…

Thanks to the newly added starting resources EVERYONE spawns with enough resources for two torches now and ANY CHARACTER can show up to burn your base.

Next Wes- Wes gained some cool balloons that actually DOES STUFF such as: temporarily increase the movement speed of anyone holding them, increases the Sanity of anyone in a Confetti party balloon distance when it is popped, Balloon hats that reduce wetness and protects from lightning strikes, And Ballon Vests that prevent players from losing inventory at Sea should they have to bail from a sinking boat.

Webber can now plant his spider eggs directly IN Base with other players, with a Razor he can trim them down (from tier 2 to tier 1 etc..) with silk he can upgrade them in tiers, if Webber decorates these dens, they shrink in size to not leave webbed flooring everywhere, and the spiders that spawn from them are now passive to other players with (happy) smiling faces, Webber can also now eat Monster Meat and all Monster meat variations with no penalty.

CURRENTLY Wolfgang sucks… but that will change come December when the Big Guy finally gets his rework.

I usually just play solo, but thanks for the info. Once i get more familar with the current metas I will probably do boss runs on each character. Just need to relearn metas for bosses and food, learn the new biomes, and learn the new items and mechanics like farming.

Still curious about the food, what makes honey a great food source? I also heard something about leafy meat farms? Are they any good? I just want to decide on whats going to be my main source of food.

Your welcome, it just makes me very Angry to still see people ban character choices based on how they USED to Play- Klei has busted their behinds for almost 3 years now to bring the cast into a more coop friendly light..

Take Wendy as an example: before her rework Wendy could’ve been seen as a waste of resources because she hit weaker than other characters, and thus burned through more tools (especially Wigfrid battle spears) then she needed to- NOW Wendy’s hit Weaker downside is mostly Non-Existent thanks to a petal buff her ghostly Sister Abigail applies onto enemies that she attacks, Giving Anyone that attacks a petal buffed enemy a damage buff, this buff is extra if the character is Wendy herself.

A lot of people complain that Wendy has no downsides now but that’s not really true, things Abigail WONT Attack Wendy’s hit weaker downside still impacts: Such as Chopping Trees, Mining Resources or fighting Shadow Monsters.

the TL:DR- Wendy + Wolfgang gets things like fighting bosses done much so so much faster now.
