Aalda11 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Soo...I played about an hour with this but didn't find any gold source. Maybe I just didn't come across the proper biome since the world in Shipwrecked is bloody enormous but still, the gold yielding rocks seems to be either non-existent or extremelly rare. I did find "Dubloons" but these don't seem to be the correct source of gold for the Science Machine.

sayum Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I found gold in both the dark volcano(?) biome and the thick jungle biome. There are ususally gold veins in areas with monkeys but beware of getting your gold stolen.

Devon Aster Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 If you want to know how to get gold without rocks: You can refine dubloons into gold nuggets. Granted, you need at least one nugget to make a science machine to unlock it, but after that you'll have an alternate source. I had a run of luck with the pirate hat parrot flitting around, insulting me, and dropping dubloons every so often.

CaiBee Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 No gold at all, after 1 hour playedhttp://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/388796648240024062/C38A6A941E8EE382FBABBD3DE021D0D904F7048F/ Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/59673-gold-in-shipwrecked/#findComment-691052 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aalda11 Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 I'm in my third game and maybe it's just me but gold-vein boulders do seem to be much rarer than in DS vanilla. In about 10 hours of playing I've found exactly 3, across all my games. It's probably intended because luckily you need only the one initial nugget for the science machine and the rest can be obtained from the dubloons crapped out by the pirate parrot (even though it's a rather slow process). I've also found a treasure with some baubles, seemingly for sale to the Pig King. I haven't found a Pig King yet though.

SapphireBullets Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Sometimes, even in regular DS, you end up walking around for quite a while until you find a gold boulder. (Or Golder.)

PhelsarusBeel Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I think it really depends how kind the Worldgen is. My best advice is to search for the Volcanobiome since goldrocks seem to be quite plentyfull in there. After you got a shovel you won't be needing those anyway since you can either go treasurehunting to get some gold or dig up the rockpiles with gold inside of them in the Volcano biome. Otherwise dense Jungle seems quite good for Gold although it tends to spawn them very close to the gosh darn Apes and they love stealing that stuff.

I've also found a treasure with some baubles, seemingly for sale to the Pig King. I haven't found a Pig King yet though.I believe the pig king has been replaced with the yaarctopus. You can trade fish and trinkets for treasure chests, containing at least one gold dubloon or more, depending on the trinket. However, you can only trade once a day, and you need 3 dubloon to get one gold, so not as easy to get gold compared to pig king. Maybe they will add him as well in a more jungle like getup. It should be noted I haven't actually found him myself yet, despite being on day 30+, all I know is what I hear other say and pictures and the wiki page http://dont-starve-game.wikia.com/wiki/Yaarctopus Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/59673-gold-in-shipwrecked/#findComment-693393 Share on other sites More sharing options...
