Two other things: 1. There's another hidden cave in the Highlands, with the entrance hidden behind a tree 2. I think the double Zic is because Expanded also did stuff with him
I had the same reaction to the worm book, it’s from the archeology mod and gives you archeology exp Also binning skill is working I use it, you also need to scroll for it
You can buy fairy stones at the Junimo Woods! It's definitely the easiest way to finish that special order, since the other two items aren't as annoying to get.
I love the expanded series, it was the motivating factor that got me to download my first mod, (currently have about 130 mods in my current play through). It might be interesting to highlight some of the quality of life mods. I’m a big fan of convenient inventory, combined with chests anywhere, and bigger backpack. The skull cavern elevator combined with mod that allows you to control how fast time flows took all the stress out of skull caverns. Automate and lookup anything, which you’ve shown, are in the category of “I can’t live without”. Thank you so much.
Also the reason why there are two Zics is because their twin brothers they are discernable from their clothes that's why they have the same birthday and why there is two friendship bars
I was doing the qi crops quest right around the time we got the new trees, and I had almost completely deforested Cindersnap Forest looking for Qi beans. The bright side is when the forest grew back in the new trees were much more evenly spread through the forest! Still felt like the Lorax would be mad at me though.
Love that you keep adding new mods! For fishing in the badlands (and other combat areas too, like the highlands and swamp) trinkets are super helpful! My favorite is the rapid quiver, but quivers and ice rods are very nice. If you really wanna try pre-combat mastery, you can baracade yourself with fences to protect from enemies that walk up to you, and the reward for the monster crop quest is helpful for flying enemies
I adore this series. I highly recommend Wildflour and her mods if you want additions to craftables and machines! She has a lot of great ones under the Atelier umbrella.
I know you weren’t talking to me but I checked out Wildflour’s mods and it’s absolutely amazing!! It adds so much! It’s my new favorite so thank you!! :)
i've been thinking of downloading the baubles mod for a bit now, and seeing you using it here makes me think i'm gonna end up adding it for my next playlist 👀
the Digging Like Worms Book is from the Archaeology mod and all it does is give you a little Archaeology experience. I had to find this out myself for my game because I was really confused by it
@@salmence100 for the double Zic (if you haven't already figured it out) I'd carefully look over your mods folder and check for duplicate folders. OR duplicate files inside the same folder. Been using the Distant Lands mod with SVE for forever and never had that happen, but could be b/c of an old folder/file somehow sticking around. Had a similar issue with the Aquarium Update and turns out I forgot to remove some of the old folders from a previous update.
tip to facilitate fishing without dying!! once you get the farming mastery statue, you can use the fishing buff and that makes fishing in the combat areas so much easier :)
YOU ARE AN ANGELIC GIFT TO MY NOTIFICATIONS. I've ran out of content to watch while doing homework **ahem** we all know what's receiving more attention between those two. I've been longing for a good Stardew video and you always deliver, thank you
I've noticed in the Deep Woods that enemies are randomly tougher, faster, and stronger, seemingly unrelated to the level/depth you're at. I've been 2 tapped by enemies hitting for around 130 damage
I think both SVE and the expanded Witches Swamp may have added Zic as a NPC and that the Witches Swamp also added Zic so you have two from two different mods? Idk if that’s right though. Also for the monster crops, you may just have to destroy them all and replant them? Idk what would cause that to happen but it’s worth a shot right? Edit: I noticed in my SVE file too that the Golden Fish got renamed to Glowfish, but I think that’s because they added a Goldfish to SVE
Im so happy that you keeping this going sal you should look at the artisan goods mod and Ars Venefici the last one feels perfect for what is currently in the world because it allows you to make spell books and cast spells
39:25 Please remembr most characters in the world can't see Junimos. Only those sensitve to magic and nature. Since that was the failed farm of Andy's freinds, he's likely just there to remember the past then drinking to forget it.
Hey man you might never see this but I just wanted to say I’ve been in the hospital for almost a week now and your videos have helped me so much so thank you
I think the Goldenfish had its name changed to Glowfish because Expanded added the actual Goldfish for your to catch, so I guess it's a way to not mix them up
Lock up your daughter, lock up your wife, lock up your backdoor and run for your life. Salmence is back in town, so don't you mess around. This series is TNT. It's dynamite.
With all the mods I have and all the unique items, I feel like it justified getting a mod to upgrade my backpack to 48 slots and my god it helps so much, I'd reccomend getting one if you feel like your inventory is always full.
I just realized... If you're still playing with Adventurer's Guild Expanded, I don't think you ever started the actual content of the mod?? Usually if you enter the Guild after playing at least 15 in-game days and you've completed the initiation quest (which I'm very sure you've done both lmao) there should be a cutscene with Robin and Marlon about expanding the Guild
1:09:00 the little light there is due to it being a “hidden” tunnel/space where your character is behind the leaves :p it’s like that in the secret woods i think?
So you glad you finally installed better crafting (Even if only because it's a dependency). It's one of the those QoL mods that once I started using, I could not go back.
Another mod that goes well with the new swamp is the alecto the witch mod I always seem to have doubled zic The elixirs sold at the outpost shops as well as the weapons are there to help you with beating the highlands Void delight is a wonderful buff to go to the highlands or crimson badlands with
I haven't finished the video yet but since you need the rusty cog for the whimseychine, here's a friendly reminder that you can buy artifacts at the junimo village in the forest!
Some Sal Validation (since everyone likes being validated) In my own Expanded play through I also took Fishing Mastery first! And I’m not really a fisherman, with fishing being my last level ten! With the amount of difficult fish and the new areas to fish at, having a better rod and more bobbers is so helpful!
@Salmence When you updated SVE, did you delete the folder first, then add it back it, or just drop the new files in? When you see doubles of things (Zic, elixirs, double harvests, etc). it usually means at least parts of a mod are listed twice in the folder, so it loads twice. So there are more in game than should be. This happened to me once updating SVE once, so maybe thats the cause here? Also try visiting Marnies shed, after 8 hearts. She will teach something good :) Thank you so much for the great play through!
I'm only halfway through the video so you might have realised this later on, but the sprite spring gives a +3 fishing buff certain days, which stacks with food buffs! I think they last around 7 real minutes but I could be wrong!
The Camilla cut-scene at Shearwater Bridge was there LONG BEFORE the Mastery system was a thing. The fact that the two coincided in your game is pure chance, lol. EDIT: You will probably want to reset your trees sooner rather than later. I have run into AT LEAST two recipes that require both Birch and Fir seeds, respectively. Adding both to your Tree farm will help you IMMENSELY as I am discovering in my own game. EDIT # 2: The Crimson Badlands monsters are some of the hardest in the game that I know of. I do not know if Oil of Garlic will do a thing there. I cannot recommend the highest-quality Dewdrop Berries you have enough, lol. That was how I did it in the one SVE play-through I got that far in. "Blue hat man" is supposed to be Andy, which you will understand why during one of his cut-scenes... I will not spoil more than that. One last EDIT (# 3): The Children's Sketchbook will let you get Prismatic Shards from artifact spots, so maybe that is where you got it?
When looking for specific Artifacts or gems, can you check the huts in the junimo village ? Like for fairy stone or rusty cog, they might be there on demand.
1:17:15 I always have to turn off the fog effect in the settings, it really does make it too hard for me to see. Have you considered the bigger backpack mod? I know some people think it's cheaty, but there's just so much stuff with all the mods (there's enough with just SVE to warrant it, imo, let alone all the other mods you have). I sometimes wish I had an even bigger backpack option lol 😅
When you play expanded from day 1 and go the junimo route the movie theatre adds an item that is a shark, caught it and cried tears of joy Never catching it again Also the love for cooking mod is 1.6
I'm not sure about the massive drops on some crops. Have you tried replanting them after the updates you've done? It doesn't seem to be something just effecting range of drop crops, as your coffee harvests seemed normal. So all I can think is that in updating, some data of some already planted crops got messed up.
Sal have you seen Olivia's schedule on the 25th of summer when you have some friendship points with the wizard and Olivia (and you are not dating, married or divorced)? If not, please see it in game. It is also for some reason not mentioned in the wiki
Atelier is French - it’s pronounced like Ah-tell-yea (I’m not French but I’m British and we have a lot of French influence and words /spellings in British English snuck in so if I’ve got it wrong please correct me! ☺️)
Im only partway through so forgive me if it's already been investigated, but i think there's a book in the witch's hut? It looked like it, against the wall on the left, right next to the statue
I have no idea what the actual solution is but because i like puzzles i am putting my thoughts about 30:48 here. 1st, pretty certain that its asking for a fairy stone rather htan dust or anything because fairy stone's flavor text is "An old miner's song suggests these are made from the bones of ancient fairies" 2nd, easy solar essence (5 specifically) 3rd, same for void essence (another 5) 4th is whats stumping me because frog eggs seem obvious but far, far too rare to need 10 of them and requireing combat mastery, next thought is SVE frogs or tadpole's but I don't think this is part of SVE so requireing that seems super odd so probably not that. Only thing I have so far is slime or slime eggs both being kinda like frog eggs only other idea is to find something that kinda like a tadpole.
opened youtube feeling awful so i wanted to rewatch your expanded series, only to find a new video! i feel so lucky
The universe is smiling upon you ❤
It must be something in the air, moon, one of the many natural phenomenons lmao. Wishing you all the best 🖤🖤
Camilla's out here casually adding in invasive species to Pelican Town's rivers.
The “No I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that… it was a joke to try and be funny..” got me dying🤣
I paused the vid and came to the comments to say the same thing! 😂I cannot replicate the noise I made laughing at that
the way my eyes went WIDE before i immediately chilled atvthe apology, making it 10x funnier LOL
Same i literally almost spat out my water
I was really stressed out today and then I got on UA-cam and saw the new video and I instantly smiled. This series is amazing! I love it so much!
I always fall asleep to this series😭 your voice is just so calming
Real, sal's voice is very chill
@@Hankal31doscope Sal seems chill himself
@@unclesheogarath yeah, it's a nice break from the usual chaotic UA-camrs with like loud voice and overly flashy editing

That's what I thought, I actually had it updated for a few episodes, but assumed it wasn't working and removed it. I'll re-add it later
You can buy fairy stones at the Junimo Woods! It's definitely the easiest way to finish that special order, since the other two items aren't as annoying to get.
There's a money tree in the highlands you can cut down and replant on the farm and it respawns!
I love the expanded series, it was the motivating factor that got me to download my first mod, (currently have about 130 mods in my current play through). It might be interesting to highlight some of the quality of life mods. I’m a big fan of convenient inventory, combined with chests anywhere, and bigger backpack. The skull cavern elevator combined with mod that allows you to control how fast time flows took all the stress out of skull caverns.

I was doing the qi crops quest right around the time we got the new trees, and I had almost completely deforested Cindersnap Forest looking for Qi beans. The bright side is when the forest grew back in the new trees were much more evenly spread through the forest! Still felt like the Lorax would be mad at me though.
Haven't finished yet, but the ice rod or the magic quiver can be super helpful in the Badlands for fishing or otherwise!
i JUST binged all the past episodes, perfect timing
Love that you keep adding new mods! For fishing in the badlands (and other combat areas too, like the highlands and swamp) trinkets are super helpful! My favorite is the rapid quiver, but quivers and ice rods are very nice. If you really wanna try pre-combat mastery, you can baracade yourself with fences to protect from enemies that walk up to you, and the reward for the monster crop quest is helpful for flying enemies

the slimes will always escape as long as they are outside of the hut
I love this series! I would love to see you do a similar series but with Ridgeside Village!
YOU ARE AN ANGELIC GIFT TO MY NOTIFICATIONS. I've ran out of content to watch while doing homework **ahem** we all know what's receiving more attention between those two. I've been longing for a good Stardew video and you always deliver, thank you
I've noticed in the Deep Woods that enemies are randomly tougher, faster, and stronger, seemingly unrelated to the level/depth you're at. I've been 2 tapped by enemies hitting for around 130 damage
Heres a tip from my own playthrough, Minnows give wild bait in fish ponds! Not a ton but I run a couple ponds and get decent amount
I think both SVE and the expanded Witches Swamp may have added Zic as a NPC and that the Witches Swamp also added Zic so you have two from two different mods? Idk if that’s right though.

I love this playthrough!! I watched it all in like 2 days 😭
Always so excited to see a new Expanded video in my feed. Just what I needed today 😊
Im so happy that you keeping this going sal you should look at the artisan goods mod and Ars Venefici the last one feels perfect for what is currently in the world because it allows you to make spell books and cast spells

37:25 you can make a safe area with fences and pathing to create a fishing area. don't know how well it works against the serpents tho
Having recently started my own modded playthrough I love having one to watch while I grind
i love these longer episodes!! thank you sal!
Hey man you might never see this but I just wanted to say I’ve been in the hospital for almost a week now and your videos have helped me so much so thank you
I think the Goldenfish had its name changed to Glowfish because Expanded added the actual Goldfish for your to catch, so I guess it's a way to not mix them up
STARDEW VALLEY! BUT EXPANDED!!!
😂
More more more! I get so hyped whenever I see a new expanded episode!!
I love this series! I always pick fishing rod first. It helps with those pesky expanded fish
I laughed too hard at your “weekend” joke 😂
This notification just made my whole day omg so glad your continuing 🎉 gonna watch while eating dinner
Lock up your daughter, lock up your wife, lock up your backdoor and run for your life.

The worm book is from archaeology it gives you XP after the first before that I think it may let you dig up more artefacts.
Great episode! So full of new adventures.
Oh no I just binged the whole series without realizing I’ve caught up 😅
50:43 kid in the gang now
The random worm bin got me
Let's always remember the Zic Twins
Great video laughed and shared engagement and delighted to consume
notification gang rise.
Yoooo! Finally I get to watch one of these as it comes out!
if you’re having trouble finding fairy stones for Sophia’s mission you can always check the Junimo village - pretty sure they’re selling some! :)
You can buy some relics from the Junimos at the the huts at the end of the Junimo woods. You could get the rusted cog.
the glow fish is the new name for the golden fish so its probly jsut an update issue
So you glad you finally installed better crafting (Even if only because it's a dependency). It's one of the those QoL mods that once I started using, I could not go back.

double Trap bobber is the way to go for the shark and sun fish
A long enough video to watch while I do some jump training exercises!
YAYAYYAYAYA MORE STARDEW VALLEY EXPANDED!! >_
Get more cows to produce cheese, it makes it sooo much easier to heal and all you need is 2-3 cows.
20:48 Sal, are you a hoozier, by chance? Fellow Midwesterner pog if so!
Babe wake up, a new episode of Stardew Valley Expanded just dropped
i caught up just the other day so this is exciting aaaaaa

The moonfrog thing might ne that statue you made that makes stuff during the rain
I'm only halfway through the video so you might have realised this later on, but the sprite spring gives a +3 fishing buff certain days, which stacks with food buffs! I think they last around 7 real minutes but I could be wrong!
Since you have RealMe5G it could be interesting to add a mod that changes or expands on the child development! I love watching this series

mist can be turned off in a mod's generic mod config menu options but idk which mod to check probs sve tho
Sve crop are most likely op so that you can buy what they are adding like the store in the desert
What is the mod called you are using to change the interface? (nvm found it)
YAY! A NEW EPISODE
When looking for specific Artifacts or gems, can you check the huts in the junimo village ? Like for fairy stone or rusty cog, they might be there on demand.

I'm excited to watch this!!!
nice vid! :)
The book that you got wile planting is a xp book from the archeology skill
finally some quality tv!
must add paths under your chests!!
When you play expanded from day 1 and go the junimo route the movie theatre adds an item that is a shark, caught it and cried tears of joy
Never catching it again
Also the love for cooking mod is 1.6
i love chub frenzies ;D
More Sal! I need more!

Yay! I was waiting for this! 2min gang haha
Finallyy new video ~ 🎉🎉

I Like These Series!
I have no idea what the actual solution is but because i like puzzles i am putting my thoughts about 30:48 here.
1st, pretty certain that its asking for a fairy stone rather htan dust or anything because fairy stone's flavor text is "An old miner's song suggests these are made from the bones of ancient fairies"
2nd, easy solar essence (5 specifically)
3rd, same for void essence (another 5)
4th is whats stumping me because frog eggs seem obvious but far, far too rare to need 10 of them and requireing combat mastery, next thought is SVE frogs or tadpole's but I don't think this is part of SVE so requireing that seems super odd so probably not that. Only thing I have so far is slime or slime eggs both being kinda like frog eggs only other idea is to find something that kinda like a tadpole.
Could u buy the fairy stone from the junimos?
After goes this far. i guess making content about expanded tips is gonna be... Good idea, Sal.
