squishyllamas Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I know it's RNG so it'll never be consistent, but does anyone know of any ways I could farm butterflies, to rack up butter? FYI this is in a Shipwrecked world (im playing as Warly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomFace Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The easiest way in shipwrecked is with elephant cactus (If you know the location of the volcano). Put a patch of cacti close to your base (but not close enough to attack walls etc). Surround them with flowers and remove all other flowers from the area. While you're in and around your base butterflies will continue to spawn and be immediately killed without you having to get involved (birds too). Remember to wear cactus armour when going to collect the loot though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thieverpedia Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hmm...adding onto that Elephant Cactus suggestion, maybe not just one elephant cactus patch, but maybe 9? I see some using just one, for some reason. Gives you enough spikes for 3 cactus armor and you can mass kill butterflies if it's close to your base. But for all those nets, I assume one would need a couple spider nests to farm all of that silk. But a butter farm with more is completely viable.

Ispin69 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I made a elephant cactus farm with 12 of them, two lines of six. I got around 100 butterflies, tons of jet feathers and morsels --- no butter. Maybe just unlucky. I've had better chances of beefalo killing butterflies for butter than this. Planted dozens of flowers and dropped seed in between. It was MILD season, just one day of sporadic wind and it blew a bunch of the flowers and seeds away. Taking them to ROG would be way better since there is no wind there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will trigger the butterfly production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
