TheKingofSquirrels Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I hate this season. It destroys the environment and isn't fun. I'm thinking of just deactivating it. Do I loose anything by not having it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faintly Macabre Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 A reliable renewable source of obsidian, and arguably the least crappy season to hunt for white whales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landromat Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Obsidian. Also this is the best season for coffee, so you have to use more ashes to fertilize it. Also no yellow crockdogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratekingflcl Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 It's easier to steal all the plants from the Volcano in Dry Season, because they won't be unfertilized. Similarly, Dry Season is the season where Coffee grows the fastest, because Coffee Plants treat Monsoon Season and Dry Season backwards compared to other plants. And like the above posters said, the amount of Obsidian you can obtain is highest in Dry Season. Either from Trawling or from the eruptions themselves.

I just don't want the meteors. I just hate how the environment gets destroyed by the eggs falling from the sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd make getting obsidian a little more work, but still possible. 2 hours ago, landromat said: no meteors = no renewable obsidian and dragoon eggs Incorrect. You can trawl for obsidian; it's a fairly common catch in shallow water. (Dry season only) What'd be really nice is if the volcano altar actually worked reliably, but that seems to be too much to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it makes exploring impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you can feed volcano altar to delay erruption Also you can add this mod if you don't want to count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a game, and most sane people usually agree that they're supposed to be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestix Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 If you have not found the volcano by first summer, then go onto your boat some time after the second warning, and be prepared to dodge the eggs on water. Do not go near islands that you have not explored yet, since you might inadvertently kill a doydoy. And ideally have an armoured boat, fully repaired, and a repair kit on you at all times. However, do try to find the volcano and in it the altar of snackrifice as soon as possible. Visit it every couple of days during summer and feed it eggs to pacify the volcano, and you will not have any eruptions. I think dry season is hard but balanced. The eggs forcing you to go onto water every now and again, and thus to have food and cooling options handy, or alternatively to make regular trips to the volcano, is a legitimate challenge, and I recommend that you learn to overcome it instead of turning it off. Once you do learn to deal with it, you will find that coffee is more than fair compensation for the extra trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mencken Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Having died twice by volcano lava bombs I just hop on to my boat when an eruption is impending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
