Code Diving to Find Books in Stardew Valley 1.6

If you don’t like spoilers leave now spoiler warning spoilers spoilers spoilers you’re going to see some explanations for new mechanics you’ve seen you may see some things in the update that you haven’t seen anywhere else you might even see some things that are just being newly discovered spoiler

Warning how do we do this let’s load into my previous perfection Farm cuz I want to have a look at this tracker we get the statue of True Perfection but we also are only at 96 there is extra things to grow and ship there’s 97% on great friends there’s more cooking there’s more

Crafting there’s more fish sorry kobus apologies kobus now there’s no new NPC it’s just that kobus of course kobus loves us great friends kobas loves us there’s no new NPC to gift there’s no new NPC to friend there are new NPCs though so what else do we have new in

Here this screen has changed the wallet no longer has the stuff there instead we we can see that I sold out to geia we can see our house level we can see the deepest we got in the mind we can see how many Star drops we’ve got there’s a

Little bit of artwork here which I think is based on the season and there’s this thing here called Mastery extra stuff to do with XP we’ll come back to that soal kobis loves us he he near never he he never left we have a new map here

Showing where we actually are we have crafting anything new in here that we can spot we’ve got a text sign we have a bait maker we have a mushroom log tin kit use this to deploy a onetime used tin for sleeping can only be used Outdoors imagine if you could put that

In the skull kevans you go as far as you can you put a tint down you wake up and you keep on going deeper you actually get to the Quarry m anything else new in here Deluxe bait causes fish to buy even faster and increases the side of the

Size of the fishing bar and these a new isem that we see there Moss Sona bobber shows what fish is on the line before it is caught anything else new in here so these are all standard things that can get unlocked with the level up so I have

Them unlocked at the moment because I have my skills all the way up there so they get retroactively applied but that’s not all the new items there’s more there’s an animal Gordon is at two hearts hasn’t been pet today special items and Powers this is a very

Interesting Tab and we’re going to spend a lot of time talking about this here so all of the things that were in the wallet previously have been migrated over into here so like the dwarfish translation guide the rusty key the club card the special charm the skull key the

Magnifying glass dark Talisman Magic ink key to the town there’s also a new one here for Forest magic your one with Forest magic there’s also the I can’t remember what that one’s called the spring onion Mastery and friend of beers beers knowledge by cordon and then all

Of these other ones over here and five stars we’re going to be digging into that probably is the first thing that we do collections new things over here that looks like a fish but we have fish down here what’s going on there and we have

That look like the Moss and you got all these other things in here including what it looks like new crops that looks fun artifacts no new artifacts no new minerals cooking Moss soup which we would have the recipe for it’s thick and slimy but edible achievements new

Achievements options what is new in here menu backgrounds standard graphical or none and I believe that none was added in order to make buffering not blind you not not induce seizures so if we then go to standard can see how it’s how it’s dimming but we can go none that’s going

To make M spam much much much better anyway there are a lot of books in here there are a lot of various powers that you can have access to so let’s have a look at a list let’s go straight to a data file and let’s go to this one

Called objects objects. Json so this is a major overhaul of the data file for in here so previously this used to just be one line per thing and it was SL separated now it is a Json file which is a lot easier to see what each field does

But each item just takes up a lot of space you need to be able to search through it so book there’s this thing here called purple book the name of it is book of stars is a purple book the skill book s Almanac wood cutters weekly bait and bobber mining monthly comat

Quarterly the alleway buffet there’s a trash book there’s a crabbing book there’s a bomb book there’s a ro book Wild seeds wood cutting defense friendship void speed Marin price catalog queen of source queen of source cookbook Perfection can be achieved before the end of year 2 diamonds Diamond Hunter book of mysteries animal

Catalog another speed book a source for a lot of these books is going to be this thing called the book seller now the book seller is in town got a little bit of a sign here saying which way to go it’s the H balone guy it’s what’s his

Name Mel just up here book seller comes drops in and sells books so we see here we saw mining monthly Bas and bobber Jews of of the sea we can see the descriptions here read this to gain some mining experience read this to gain some fishing experience these reading these give experience

250 XP for each of these so if I read this I get 250 mining experience if I read this I get 250 fishing experience there is one called it’s the purple book it’s the book of stars I didn’t get it here but that gives 250 XP in every

Skill so if you’re struggling to get some foraging XP foreshadowing there if you’re struggling to get foraging XP find yourself a lot of foraging XP books jewels of the sea fishing treasure chests have a chance to yield row you can get row without getting a fish pond

You can get Row from legendary fish you can get Row from legendary family fish ones that you can’t normally put in the fish ponds now do we know anyone in the community who is trying to get 999 of every single stackable item do we know of anyone that is going to need two

Stacks of every type of Row one to have standard and one to have aged doing of someone who’s going to need to get a lot of treasure chests while catching the legendary family yeah the algorithm is doing a challenge run to collect 999 of every single stackable item in the game

And he’s going to be doing a lot of fishing now there are some other things in the update that helps with fishing but we’ll get to those later way of the wind you run a little bit faster let’s actually it’s just buy one of everything

So byy the J of the Sea byy The Way of the Wind Horse the book you gain a little extra speed when riding a horse oh sther legs you’ll now run a lot faster through grass and crops but we’ll have a look at each of these books and

See exactly what benefit it gives you and for ones you can’t get from the book seller we can actually get them from Queen of source cookbook learn any queen of source recipes that you don’t already know currently if you want Perfection you need to cook every single item every

Single cooking recipe and a lot of those recipes you need to get from the TV from the queen of source Channel every Sunday for 2 years there’s a new recipe so every Sunday you have to check the TV to learn that recipe but now there is this queen of source cookbook 50,000g learn

Any queen of source recipes that you don’t already know in order for this book to appear in the book seller you need to have collected 100 golden walnuts you need to have the nut door unlocked as soon as you do that this book will always show up at the book

Seller when the book seller isn’t town so it doesn’t show up right from the beginning but easy to get before the end of year 2 So currently Perfection is time locked to year 2 spring 1 year 3 is when the boulder will get removed but you can now get this queen of source

Cookbook in order to get all these recipes early price catalog oh look you can buy more of them price catalog you can now see the value of your items now I love this animation only new a few things about Mining and a few new things about

Fishing so we already had level 10 of these but you may have noticed that this Mastery bar just went up a little bit we’ll look a bit more about Mastery later I a new power I a new power I learned a new power I learned a new

Power I learned zero new recipes yeah go me I L you new power so all of these new power ones we come in here and they start for I’ve got new powers in here so there’s no icon on here for queen of source cuz you just learn the recipes

That you don’t know but yet we’ve got price catalog way of the Wind part one Jews of the sea horse of the book all sther leags so those are all of the books that you can get from the book seller just by default there will be

Options or you can re these and like it’s got a little weather part twoo look so you can buy extra one of these if you get double UPS of books except for queen of source cookbook except for Price catalog then you get 20 it depends on

The book if you get a double up of some books and and you read the double UPS so You’ already got the power you get another book you read it again depending on the book you may either get 100 XP in a specific skill or 20 XP in all skills

But there is also a way to trade books so you can trade jewels of the sea so if you get another one of those you can sell that for C jelly there’s a new file called shops that has all the shop information in it so this one here is

The trading SO trading the Rob book it randomly chooses between cave jelly River jelly sea jelly new things that you can fish up you can get fairy dust if you trade in a book of stars this is the book that gives you 250 XP in every

Single skill if you trade that in you can get eight fairy dust pepper poppers Stu Valley Almanac that’s one we haven’t come across yet two pepper poppers Deluxe bait requires one Bas and bobber so that one there is the fishing one monster mask combat combat coely get an

Extra combat book trade in for monster mask you can go hunting for the Prismatic slime with monster mask getting late game items consumable late game items or even just a single late game machine like this I think that’s a a good feature like you can’t craft it

Yourself but you get the consumable to use like fairy dust like monster mask like that’s going to be cool the contents of the book seller so buying them is fully seated seated to the game ID and what we get in here is also seated to the game ID so when I do

Seated runs I will be able to seed four things like this well that’s the book seller there but that is nowhere near all of the books that we have so let’s go have a look to see what we need to get for some of these other ones are we

Ready for some spoilers of certain things on the map so we’re going to go for some easy spoilers first easy spoilers first let’s look for some spoilers around the map so if you don’t want spoilers look away if you don’t want spoilers why are you here so up

Here we can’t see what’s up here this this balloon is in the way but we can chop this here we can clear out some weeds and I can’t walk through here and the reason for that is because there’s a box here it contains a prize ticket now

This is a feature that we haven’t explained yet but here is a secret box hidden on the map you want some more okay this over here looks new there’s a lot of trash over there as well y hey look there is a giant log and there is a

Giant Stone all right how are we going to get over there maybe we come down here no that’s blocked H how about walking along here there’s a gap in the fence you need steel axe you need steel pick but if you come up here there is a

Little Trash Can hidden back here we open this trash can up and we get a book the aloe Buffet so that’s where you get aloe Buffet you have a greater chance to find items in trash we’ll dig into the code a bit later to see exactly what

That means all right there’s one other easy book to find these waterfalls are awesome that’s a brilliant animation do we see something new on here there a little present up there there’s a door here that you can open only if you have slayed 1,000 monsters I’ve slayed over

1,000 monsters in this file I can come in here there’s a book here mapping cave systems so by me reading this book I get a 50% discount on Marlin’s item retrieval service so I know how to map out caves so Marlin charges me less so those are the books and the items that

You will just find lying around on the ground so what do we have left we have a whole heap more powers. Jason so this is the order of things Forest magic dwar translation guide Rusty key that all looks very familiar cool so now we come

Down to the books key to the town price care log yep done then book Marlin got that book speed book speed to so book Marlin is 50% discount on the I on the item retrieval yep that’s that’s easy to understand book speed you run a little

Bit faster let’s have a look to see exactly what that means now I believe this one is on the farmer we’ll do a search for book uncore book speed book speed to added speed so if you have read book speed or book speed two and you’re not riding horse then your extra speed

Is .25 so one is a speed for coffee when you get a speed buff so when you have a coffee buff when you have a spicy eill when you have a p popper buff that adds one to your speed so these books is a permanent .25 speed increase each so together it’s

A permanent 0.5 it’s a permanent half copy our standard speed is two so do your math okay where we up to next book void okay let’s go have a look at the description for this here’s a spoiler full file for you 1.6 strings you probably have a whole stream looking at

This so This here’s the names for all of them so book void name Monster compendium monsters have a small chance to drop double loot do I need to zoom in on this a bit I’ll zoom in on this a bit Abigail has special dialogue if you give her a monster compendium there’s going

To be a lot of little things like that that’s going to be cool to find okay book void so this here is what it looks at when you have the skill so if you have read book void then 3% chance to go through the entire debris to add

Collection and drop it on the ground so debris to add is everything that the monster is going to drop all the things that the monster spawns withholding all of the things that a burglar’s ring has added to the pole this Stacks with burglar’s ring so burglar’s ring goes

Through the drop table again and rerolls for each individual item this void book doubles everything 3% chance for everything to drop again and how do you get book void so here we go this is Monster drop if you have killed 10 monsters then you have a

.1 chance but that is increased if you have yet to have one drop so a base of 01 the more monsters you kill the more likely you are to get this book but as soon as you have the book then it’s just that number there so if you’ve killed

One monster and hasn’t dropped that chance is extra if you’ve killed a 100 monsters and it hasn’t dropped then that gets added if you’ve Ked a thousand monsters and it hasn’t dropped then it adds 1.5% so the chance to get it increases until you get it and then it

Drops right back down again so the monster book that doubles your loot you get from killing monsters that’s a cool one 3% chance to double everything book friendship this one looks interesting friendship 101 you become friends with people a little faster so this is the use of the book change friendship this

Method is called whenever you get friendship with any NPC you get it when you talk to someone you get it when you gift someone you get it when you complete a item delivery quest for them you get it when you complete the bulleon board when you go to the L luel you get

It when that you slingshot someone when you don’t talk to someone this method is what changes friendship with people so if you have this book every time that you get positive friendship with anyone so it doesn’t punish you if your friendship’s going down if you’re getting positive friendship with them

Then the amount of friendship that you get is multiplied by 1.1 you get 10% additional friendship with people no matter where that friendship has come from so if you give someone an aridium quality L gift on their birthday so 120 points * 8 so 960 points then you’ll get

An additional 10% an additional 96 points you get this book you make friends faster so how do you get this book here we go look at this prize ticket menu let’s take a break from looking at the books and we’ll look at this prize ticket menu because the fure

Book is partway in there get prize item get raccoon seed for current time of year you to look at raccoon seeds you’ve got some item IDs mixed flower seeds Mystery Box star drop tea blue pin strap double bed mushroom log another big craftable another is near book

Friendship let’s go have a look at the surprise ticket menu we need to go into town and we need to go to the L’s house the M’s Manor now I believe a cut scene is going to play when I come in here not that one okay no cut scene

Played this thing here that I found behind the book seller looks very much like the symbol on this little thing here look we’ve got a menu here and we’ve got a little price we’ve got one of them so what happens if I press this button okay I get this broccoli seeds

Broccoli seeds PL in the fall takes 8 days to mature and continues to produce after first harvest prize tickets can get you some things let’s give ourselves a whole heat look I got 999 prize tickets that looks like a peach sapling yep we’ve got 10 seeds what’s this this

Is new mystery box we’ll come to that later what’s this star drop tea I will talk about this immediately after the friendship book because it’s it’s related to Friendship got a beard we’ve got sprinklers for Quality sprinklers we have what’s this an apple tree apple

Saing Y and then we have this thing here this looks like what we’re after doesn’t it friendship 101 look it’s a cow that everyone is going crazy about it’s a cow deckle so now we have friendship 101 you become friends with people a little faster it is in this prize machine

Tickets yes how do you get tickets let’s come in here and I believe this is just called priz tickets special order price tickets what are special orders that’s that special request board in town every special request that you complete gets you one prize ticket where else if you have previously won the egg

Festival get a prize ticket same for the fishing for the um what it Festival device Halloween every even year that looks to be a prize ticket in the chest which is in a different location here we go Quest complete quests are the things that you get from the billboard outside

Of Pier store every third Quest that you can complete gives you a price ticket every special Quest gives you one price ticket every three billboard Quest gives you a price ticket so we might be doing more Bill quests in the future in order to get this price ticket machine is

Seated but for the most part like it always starts at raccoon seeds then it always goes onto one of the saplings and it always goes on to either mix seeds or mix flower seeds and it always goes on to mystery box and star trop so this book friendship is always in the same

Same entry so in order to get to that it is the ninth ticket now we were looking at friendship and we are also looking at Star drop tea what is star drop tea a very special gift that would Delight anyone that sounds fun everyone seems to have specific response to Star drop tea

Now it sounds like that star drop tea is a universal loved gift like a very special gift that would Delight anyone so is star drop te a universal loved gift NPC get gift taste for this item if it’s star drop te return seven if it’s a universal love taste is zero if it’s

Universal hate taste is six star drop tea has its own category on gift given taste for item zero was the Lov gift there’s hated there’s disliked there’s neutral there liked case Seven Star drop te star drop T is its own category change friendship 250 points times friendship change

Multiplier limited to 750 an instant heart with everyone the fure change multiplyer that is based on whether it is birthday it’s times 8 if it is the Feast of the winter St it is five but I don’t see where that h gets passed in if it’s your spouse it’s HED so five or

Eight so both of those is going to hit the Maxes of three Huts so you give it to someone you can instant heart with them if it’s their birthday you can instant three hearts with them now that sounds a little bit less than what you get with giving an aridium quality love

Gift on someone’s birthday aridium quality love gift on someone’s birthday is 960 points that is more than what you get for Star drop te so what’s going on with that are you best still give someone an a redem quality loved gift on their birthday try to receive active

Objects so this here frencher this here is what limits you to giving two gifts a week unless it’s their birthday or unless you’re giving a tea two gifts unless birthday or tea if you’ve given one gift today and you’re not giving a tea then block because you’ve already

Given them a gift if you’ve given a gift and then you given them tea it will carry on Star drop tea is in addition to any other gift that day or that week you can give someone an redm quality love gift and a star drop tea and a star drop

Tea and a star drop tea and a star drop tea if you have a stack of star drop te’s you can just gift them over and over it’s so broken there’s honestly not that many chances to get star drop te so you’ll always get the and the rotation

For the price menu that’s where we got two of them so on the price menu there’s 22 standard ones that goes through two of them are star drop te and then it Cycles through another nine and side drop te’s in there but take it so hard

To come across you get side te through there there’s another way to get S te that we’ve yet to cover it’s the raccoons but that is still rare to get those and there’s one other way which is a new remixed bundle on the bullet on

Board so you don’t get your hands on a lot of them but if you do get hands on them you can you can really love bomb someone and get the Friendship up fast so I’m kind of glad I got my love Bomb Video out for 1.6 cuz if we hit St drop

Te I could have just you could do it with anyone so you get your hands on a limited number of them if you do the billb quest over and over you’d get one sub T every 27 quests that you do so we started from looking at the Friendship

Book and that got us to the prize ticket uh machine and the prize tickets and also got a sar Dr te I think this friendship book is going to be hard to get in any speedrun that isn’t seated Perfection I don’t think you’re going to

Get your hand in it in a in a marriage run even a seated marriage run I don’t think you’re getting into it okay book defense let’s have a look at this one next book defense Alex has a special dialogue sebasian has a special gift for that as well name Jack

Jack be thck description gain plus one defense so if you have this you just get extra defense one point of defense is one less point of damage that you take permanent one defense artifact spots till up an artifact spot and it is seated and this looks to be an addition

To anything else you have to have dug at least two artifact spots in order to get it that’s the same kind of thing as what we saw for the void book if you don’t have one already then the chance of it keeps on increasing until you get it and

Then the chance get another one drops back down again so either artifact spots or seed spots either of those can drop you a defense book and it gives you plus one defense cool that one is easy wood cutting Robin likes it as a gift well Robin has special dialogue for it as a

Gift I don’t know what the taste is Woody secret fou trees have a 5% chance to yield double the wood okay this is the use of it if you have this book read and it is a seeded random then 5% chance to double the number to drop it doesn’t

Double hardwood it doesn’t double hardwood that you get from Lumberjack doubles wood if you drop a mahogany it’ll double the hardwood 5% chance seeded seeded to the tile of the tree so I’ll need to add in a a wood dropped mode to the predictor which I’ve needed

To do for a while because there there extra wood calculator which itself is seated if you are using an ax on a tree and it’s not a stump game one. random so getting this book to drop is not seated but same kind of thing a point 03 per

Chance every time you chop a tree to get it to drop that is increased based on the number of trees that you have chopped so chance keeps on increasing until you get up as you chop trees then it’s just a standard the out what’s next Wild seeds book Wild seeds let’s have a

Look for that raccoon General weeds have a greater chance to yield mix seeds okay here is the use of it if you have the book read so a unseeded chance 770 is mixed seeds so when you cut a weed 50% chance to give you a weed object

Otherwise a 5% chance to get mixed seeds however if you have this book if you have the wild Seas book that is a 9% chance to drop mixeds if it is summer and none of these have hit then a 9% chance if you’ve read the book 5% chance

If you haven’t 9% chance if you have read the book to get mixed flower seeds mixed flower seeds come from weeds in the summer and then there’s these things called Green rain weeds we’ve yet to look at green rain green rain 10% chance to drop moss and to get the wild seeds

Raccoon get bundle reward from raccoons we’ve yet to look at raccoons and raccoons will give you this book they’ll give you raccoon seeds a book a raccoon hat 872 I believe that is very dust and a jungle tank let’s have a look at raccoons new farm for the setting new

Farm type that we’ get to explore let’s start on that what’s this I have already on my farm on day one wow two chickens how much do you sell for and then 54g all right you f come out the bottom new Tall Tree that I can

Run through cuz I got no clip on new Tall Tree start with does nothing I have opened up the community center and we have completed the pantry well done everyone good stream that was that’s that that took ages yeah we got it okay watch closely with the greenhouse repair

Cut scene dang that trees in the way raccoon and raccoon runs away every night after you have fixed the greenhouse there is a 10% chance for an overnight event and here it is a strong wind storm so you got to fix your Greenhouse first then you got to sleep 10% chance

Seated and then you can interact with the stump here the old tree is gone however with 100 pieces of hardwood this could be fixed up well let’s go and chop and get myself 100 pieces of hardwood so I did some chopping off camera and we got ourselves enough hardwood to fix off

To fix up the stump and look what did we add to the stump we added a chimney and we took out the interior of it to give a window put a light inside and a door so 100 hardwood makes a chimney but now we have a little house what does this do

Well we sleep it takes one day and someone has now moved into the house raccoon hungry need fish five snails a smoked Bullhead now I believe that the bundle here stays the same across a season if you get to a new season the fish may change or the what is needed is

Going to change first one is always fish so we need to get some snails there some crab potting off stream we need to get bull here do some fishing off stream we need a smoker do some crafting off off screen in your coal for the smoker I

Also want to get myself some Fury dust did some some planting and some questing off screen okay so let’s smoke our Bullhead bundle complete raccoon thanks boooo and boo boo thanks boooo take this raccoon seeds carrot seeds you receed carrot seeds yet to explain about raccoon seeds we’ll get to that a bit

Later maybe now maybe I find a way so you complete the bundle and you have to wait a week until the next bundles are available so let’s wait a week and now the raccoon needs fruit dried coconuts interesting and strawberry jelly actually I think if I refresh the area

Yeah if you wait a week the raccoon finds a wife and you can trade things it’s a shop as well it’s it’s bundles and a shop and it’s one of these shops that you have to bring in different items for it I love these kind of shops

I love the desert Trader I love the island Trader I love the book seller Trader and I love the raccoon Trader you don’t just need to get gold for it you need to get different items for it I love that mechanic so a maple seed gives

You carrot seeds 15 set gives you summer squash seeds five Moss gives you broccoli seeds two pine cones give you patter melon seeds these are the four new crops these are the raccoon seeds spring summer fall winter so whenever there is a thing to give you raccoon

Seeds you get these seeds that in season so in Spring you get carrots summer you get summer squash and so on unless it is not enough time to grow those seeds if you plant them today if there’s not enough time to grow the current season’s raccoon seeds you’ll get the next

Season’s seeds instead so we’ve seen that from the prize machine I think that’s the only thing we’ve seen it from it so far and we saw it from the reward that we just got from raccoon so we got carrots because carrots are in season okay so we want dried coconuts and we

Want strawberry jelly so we need to do some crafting off screen off off stream we need a dehydrator as well it was strawberry jelly wasn’t it get some strawberry and we need some coconuts cuz we need to take five big solid coconuts and we put them through a dehydrator to

Get dried coconuts boom dried coconut strawberry jelly raccoon thanks Bobo take this raccoon journal and the raccoon chop has been expanded you found a copy of raccoon Journal weeds have a greater chance to yield mixed seeds but we’re are not done talking about raccoons raccoon chop has been expanded so we can

Trade 999 fiber for another raccoon Journal now if you read an additional raccoon Journal you will get baging XP 100 baging XP you can trade 999 weeds for 100 foraging XP now we start a family all right so we wait a week we give these two some privacy okay they

They haven’t popped out yet dried common mushrooms and white Elie all right so let’s go find some common mushrooms screen and go fishing up for some Alie thanks Bobo take this a raccoon hat the raccoon chop has been expanded we got a raccoon hat let’s put that on and we get

Another raccoon Hat by giving 10 mix seeds all right and then now we can grow the family beggar uh we will sleep another week look tin C go to sleep for the night oh oh what’s this green rain let’s look this later all right there is our little

Family growing thirsty need juice we need tomato juice and pickled radish so now we need a kig that I’ll get the materials for and craft off stream so it was tomato juice oh I can just get that and pickled radish okay let’s just spawn those in properly then I’m mean let’s

Just go and um poess those off screen properly let’s put those in thanks Bobo take this be dust and the raccoon chop has been expanded you received FY dust and I can trade for mix seeds uh with a cap carot good friend Bobo now we can have another should we let them have

Another oh really you got to go down to the door and they’ve had another pissed poo I need a gift for the misses they love their trash five trash four corl okay let’s go find those happy raccoons thanks Bobo take this jungle tank the raccoon chop has been expanded

Jungle tank five broken glasses gives you a jungle tank we’re happy for now Bobo we’ll sleep for another week help us and I’ll give you something nice now the reason why we’re going so hard on these raccoons is because get BND rewards so we feed the raccoons

The first time that you feed the raccoon you get a raccoon seed for current time of year second time you get wild seeds you get raccoon hat you get fairy dust you get the jungle tank then there is a seeded random to give you some different things so this doesn’t cycle through it

Is does use a random You can predict it there’s options in here 872 that is fairy dust five different options here one of them is fairy dust Another one is purple book this is the book that gives you 250 XP in every skill I’m going to skip this one for now there’s Mystery

Box the star drop T and there’s 25 recurrencies for current time of year now this one in here this one here looks very interesting if you have found 100 or more golden walnuts and you have not yet shipped all of the items then find an item that you have not yet shipped

And at this category here is for juice wine pickles jelly basically the processed Goods that will include the dried mushrooms I think it includes the smoked fish as well if it’s something you have not shipped and what it finds is valid and not 812 what is 812 row

Then that is your reward now the item that it chooses is the first item in this list it’s starting from the top left and going right the first item in this list that you haven’t yet shipped that is not jelly jam Jam there’s no Jam jelly pickles juice wine dried it will

Give you it just straight up give you it so the first one that we’ll get is the horseradish okay that is raccoons what is next we’ll go back to our prediction file the next power so all that was from looking at Wild SE row the row book will Le hair special

Dialogue for if you give him a a row book okay Jews of the sea fishing treasure chests have a chance to yield row how does it work so 25% chance open treasure menu in function so if you’ve read the book 25% chance to get Row from the fish that you’ve just caught and

It’s a number between or you get one or two so this the turn either one or two then a 10% chance plus your daily luck which is between negative .1 and positive1 up to positive1 125 if you have the lucky charm to give an extra row and then another 10% adjusted by

Daily Lu to double the stack so the maximum you can get is six if you roll two there you hit that increases to three then it doubles to six minimum of one you either get one two 3 four or six row you can’t get five row you don’t

Normally get that from the book seller I’m on an endgame Farm here and from year three the book seller can sell these hardto find books from year three the book seller can sell the trash book The crabbing book we’ve yet to get to the bombs book we’ve yet to get to the

Row book that’s what we got the wild seeds the raccoon book the wood cutting defense friendship void Marin artifact book for 20,000 I believe that is also seeded but I’d have to double check that so by default if you are at fishing level five or above and you have caught

At least two treasure chests then there is a 2% chance which increases based on how many treasure chests you’ve opened up until you get it to get the robow book 2% chance plus01 one for each treasure chest you’ve opened okay that’s the Rob book what’s next bombs I believe this one is

Easy to find Kent has a special dialogue for the bomb book description is dwarvish safety manual bombs deal 25% less damage to you so game location perform damage players if it’s from a bomb then your damage is reduced where do you get it from from you get the

Dwarfish safety manual from as you would expect the dwarf dwarfish safety manual 4,000g can also get the Big Stone chest recipe what’s next crabbing will he has a special dialogue for if you give him the crabbing book The Art o crabbing crab pots have a 25% chance to yield

Double Crab Pot if you have the crabbing book a seeded chance a seeded 25% chance to double the the number of things that you catch okay cool where’ you get it from game location answer dialogue action 123 13or 3 this here is the rewards that you get from squid best

Squid Fest Booth rewards so there’s two days of squid Fest you have rewards on the 12th you have rewards on the 13th I need to have a closer look at this Festival but the crabbing book is within squid Fest you need to score high in order to get that book trash we know

Where that is how does that work lonus has a dialogue if you give it to him Elway Buffet you have a greater chance to find items in the trash okay here we go try get garbage item the garbage cans is the information for that is now in a

Data fault but it is still seated you have a base chance of it’s in the file it’s 20% adjusted by daily luck if you have the Alo Buffet then your base chances increased by another 20% so that’s up to a 50% chance to get something from the trash assuming you’ve got maximum daily

Luck so yeah this was heading in town behind that secret path and then it effectively doubles the chance of getting trash all right next diamonds book diamonds Diamond Hunter all stones have a chance to drop a diamond when mined by hand okay cool that sounds fun if you have

The book of diamonds then there is a 66% chance to drop a diamond if you have the profession 19 I believe that is geologist chance that to drop gems are doubled then there’s a 50% chance to get another one this is on do function pickaxe you use a pickaxe and and you

Break a breakable Stone and you’re not breaking a a giant rock looks to be any breakable Stone location on Stone destroyed this is where it looks for the specific Stone things like if it’s going to drop you copper ore if it’s going to drop your muscles if it’s going to drop

Your bone nodes it looks to be any kind of these rocks has a 66% chance to drop a diamond and then a 50% chance to drop another one if you have geologist okay we where do you get this from a shop it comes from a shop volcano shop volcano

Dwarf the diamond Hunter you need 10 diamonds for it look pigb going to look pretty Diamond Hunter needs 10 diamonds okay let’s go mining for some of those off off screen okay book of mystery so now we are going to start looking at these mystery boxes we’ve received some

Already let’s look at what this book does first you have a slightly greater chance to find Mystery Boxes okay so utility try roll mystery box that’s interesting this tells me that these numbers changed during the development of this patch so TR roll mystery box with a Chance p in and a potential

Random so could potentially be seated if you’ve seen the plane we’ll have to start a file and show the plane if you haven’t seen the plane the nothing will happen if you have seen the plane the book of mysteries if you haven’t read the book of mysteries then the chance is

Reduced you multiply the Chance by 75 if you have got a book of mysteries then the chance is still reduced Times by 0.95 so places that this is called final references train car a 2% chance to drop a mystery box from a specific train car

2% is passed in but as we saw in here it’s it’s never going to be 2% it’s going to be just under if youve read it it’s going to be 1.5% if you haven’t breakable container release contents troll Mystery Box pass in the random this one is seated this is from

Breakable containers so that’s the in the mines can be a golden mystery box so if you have that Mastery we’ll get to Mastery bit later it will be a golden Mystery Box not a chance it will be uh shaking a tree again will be 3% chance

To shake now every time you shake it’s not seeded do we shake a tree 423 times to get a mystery box if it has seed if the tree has a seed and the and your fing level is one or above this tree needs to have a seed in the first place

For you to have that 3% chance and it always gets reset by the time he gets down there one chance a day uh tree perform toll action this is alongside getting the wood cutting book. 5% chance every time you chop a tree .5 again reduced .5% chance to get a mystery box

Or a golden mystery box if you have that Mastery thing fishing rod and a treasure chest while you can get multiple adjusted by daily luck unseeded 8% chance daily luck can increase it by 2% it’s a while loop so if that chance hits then tries again and that keeps on going

Until that chance fails and UPG Grace of golden panning lot of change with panning that we’ve yet to get to 5% chance is seated in a while as well so you get quite a heat from there that’s going to be interesting to seed for Monster drop the justif by lack level as

Well that’s the only one that suggested by luck level as well 1% plus or minus 1% and then it will add either a Myster box or gold Myster box to a monster not doubled with the void book this happens after okay um how do you get the book

How do you get the mystery book that’s what we haven’t looked at how do you get that mystery book okay here it is here’s where the mystery boook is created so weever we’re in here 1% times rear mod and then there’s your mystery box there and mystery boxes opened 1% plus 04

Times the number that you’ve opened so this here get treasure from geode if the geode do a miss box I’ll show you on mousy pounds so the first one of these that you open you open a geod you get calite then the next any one of these

The next one of those that you open is going to pull from the second row and the next one is going to pull from the third row so you can open this yards in a particular order to maximize the items that you get mystery boxes have their

Own counter they’ll have mystery box and golden mystery box which will have tabl similar to this and those share a count but opening a mystery box will not increment the geode count I believe where is that account incremented it will ah it will this here is not toen on

If it’s a mystery box a mystery box will increment for geod but geod won’t increment for mystery boxes you open a mystery box this index goes on you open a GE the mystery box index doesn’t go on interesting so mystery boxes they are geod they have a drop table and this is

The drop table that you look at here mystery hat mystery shirt that looks fun purple book book of mystery so you will look at the either get the mystery book if you already have a mystery book it’s 5050 is whether you get a purple book or a mystery book it’s

Golden Animal Crackers in there funly enough if you crack a mystery box you can get a mystery box there’s also skill books you can get from there there’s raccoon seeds there’s a whole big table there that the wiki will be updated with at some point horse book I believe that

One is just a book seller one horse the book you gain a little extra speed riding horse okay cool uh s Keys farmer is riding horse get movement speed is riding horse if you’re riding a horse then you add point five if you have the horse book that looks

Interesting 8 karat today gives you extra speed on your horse you can feed a carrot to a horse and the horse will go faster for the entire day artif effect but artifact treasure appraisal guide you will fetch a better price when selling artifacts so if you’re selling an artifact an archaeological item then

Multiply it by three okay and where’ you get it from geod drops artifact Trove it’s from the artifact Trove artifact book is from the artifact Trove it’ be a shame if someone thought they were done with opening artifact troves and another stackable item got added to them okay

Yet we’ seen everything to do with that grass let’s go touch grass it’s just straight up in the book seller shop if you’ve read it then you slowed less than if you haven’t read it and same for growing crops yes this is old all slather legs book animal catalog I think

This book is making a lot of people really happy it’s in a shop you get it from a shop you get it from the animal shop 5,000 G and year two you’ve got to be in year two for this to appear in man shop yeah I believe you’re just able to buy

From the animal shop if man isn’t around that is all the books there were a lot there there’s a lot that they do there are some really interesting ones like doubling monster loot like 10% additional friendship every time you gain friendship with anyone like extra speed like get in every queen of source

Recipe once you’ve opened the that room there are some cool ones in There

1.6 is out. How do you get the new powers and books, and what exactly do they do? I dig into the code to find out.

  1. thank you for doing an actual spoiler warning… I got a short from lummi the other day where she just said "spoiler warning" and immediatly proceds to spoiler.
    I get that you only have a minute for shorts, but at least give me time to swipe it away 😅

  2. Some thoughts and a question about the raccoons giving you things you haven't shipped yet. I envision two scenarios of reaching this point in their quests:

    1) the things I haven't shipped are super end game, like an ostrich egg (very likely, considering how early it is in the collection), a radioactive bar/ore, or a mystic syrup, that sort of thing
    2) the things I haven't shipped are super basic, really useful things like copper ore or wood, which I don't bother shipping until I'm finishing up the collection

    Question: if it only checks for your shipping collection percent to be less than 100%, does that mean that if you don't ship the item they give you, they'll give it to you again, the next time that gift is rolled?

  3. Thank you for clarifying the thing with the Raccoon Seeds! I was so confused when I got broccoli seeds in the summer, but now I know it's because I was very late in the summer! Is it the same with seeds gotten from the mystery boxes? I've gotten in-season seeds only so far.

  4. I think the mapping cave systems means you know how to explain to Marlon exactly where you lost your items. He can get there easier, and he charges you less.

  5. Remember when we all first downloaded Stardew and thought it was a quaint little farming game, might be fun for a few hours. Now here we all are watching an hour long deep dive into the code, and wondering if any of these changes could knock a few seconds off a seeded marriage run

  6. Do you happen to know what the new double cloth chance is for the loom in 1.6? I know that it has been increased, but I haven't seen by how much yet.

  7. BlaDe, can you confirm that dynamic seeding works on switch to this day?? I’ve been trying all day (to get work boots) and the mine rewards are not getting remixed after the duplicate file is made.

  8. Thanks for the info on the mystery book. It's the last one I've been trying to get and I was being worried that I'm doing something incorrectly. Now I need to just farm enough mystery boxes to open.

  9. Question: I've heard that bubbles change locations upon the day being reset.

    Is it now fully randomized after each reset, or is this a salmonberry situation, where the algorithm differs depending on if you started the day from the main menu or continued from a previous day?

  10. I’d love for the stardew predictor to get updated for mystery boxes. Idk how it would be formatted since the counters are different but I’d love to know why I’m getting

  11. Me watching the code dive knowing I play this game at the speed of a sleepy sloth and will get to the fun new still some time in the next 7-10 business months 😂

  12. Mystery boxes from shaking trees is gonna be real cool with Automate mod! Since when it collects tapper products it also collects seeds, that means you wouldn't have to shake the trees every day, just passively collect them!!
