    My favorite part about hamlet is when the apocalypse doesn't end after 20 days and you deny the fact that you are locked in an eternal apocalypse and your playthrough is over desperately surviving the 50 heralds that have spawned in your world

    I’ve played a LOT of Hamlet, typically maining Wheeler, but also as other characters. This advice is mostly good, but leaves out a few important points. First, the easiest source of gold in early game is cave clefts, not the jungle, and there are gold-eyed statues in the yellow turf areas as well, so you don’t really need to go into the jungle much before you get a helmet or log suit. Second, the jungle also contains carnivorous vines that will attack you. They’re thicker than the regular vines. You can use the shears to cut the regular vines to get rope (or pick this up off the ground where snaptooths are fighting vines). This is much cheaper than using shears to cut grass. Third, while guards can kill bats for you, at dusk or night they will hit them with torches and the bats can set surrounding structures on fire, so don’t do this near your science machine or other resources. Above all, build a lightning rod near any outside structures you can’t easily replace and especially your transplanted nettle plants. The latter are not renewable and you’ll need a bunch of them. Also, note the icon for nettle plants on the map, as the plants themselves are often difficult to see in the jungle if they’re not blooming. Additionally, while a gas mask can protect you from hay fever, wearing it causes an even bigger sanity drain than the hay fever itself, so it definitely does not "keep you sane."
    If you can get ahold of a sewing kit, usually by buying it in the hat shop or finding it in a bandit's stash, you can use it to repair the stalking stick. It's better to get a bunch of stalking sticks, but a sewing kit will make one infinitely renewable.
    For more advanced tips: Forget buying the slanty shanty and set up a temporary base in a cave cleft or the first room in a temple near the pig farms and ponds. Wait to build your house until you get the key to the city and the executive hammer, so that you can choose a location that is close to the resources you need and then build your own shops there. The shanty and pig town are often very far from the wild areas and you’ll spent all your time walking back and forth to get wood or iron or to go through the temples if you live in the town. Once you get the executive hammer, you can hammer down the shanty (ideally when no guards are around or while wearing the swashy hat from the thief as a disguise) and that will give you almost enough oincs to pay for a shanty of your own. Also, you can hammer down some of those decorative plants for oincs with the executive hammer. I also try to make a bird whistle early on. I make a cork boat, pick lotus to trigger the platypines, kill about two of them for meat and spines. use the meat to make a ham bat and then kill a hippo, which is a bit tricky but doable. The hippo horn and the spines make the bird whistle to call BFB to bring you to its island, then while traveling back, you can pick up the scepter for the pig queen and hopefully some lightbulbs for a lantern. Ideally, the cave cleft you exit from will be near your base so that you can carry the whistle while traveling to places like the Ancient Herald island then blow it so that the BFB gives you a quick ride home. I have definitely bailed on runs where the BFB caves lead to the wrong island.

    To avoid being robbed, keep your oincs in your backpack then drop it as soon as the thief appears. You can then fight him safely, although ranged weapons work best because he’ll run out of reach when wounded. This can be the blunderbuss, Wheeler’s gun, or darts taken from temple traps or bought from the weapons shop.

    DST has something like the Vortex Cloak: the Bone Armor. It drops from a hard, ancient-themed nightmare boss (Ancient Fuelweaver) and makes you 100% immune to damage with the ability to be refueled by nightmare fuel. Unlike the Vortex Cloak, it doesn't drain your sanity when you get hit. It doesn't work as a backpack, though, and the invincibility has a cooldown of five seconds, only negating a single hit.

    • @polarlotus
      @polarlotus  5 месяцев назад +5

      Interesting! I still haven't gotten that far into DST (on my own) so I didn't know about bone armor, the extra inventory is definitely what makes the vortex cloak shine though, and its actually pretty easy to farm ancient heralds for tatters if you prepare enough and dont let them swarm vs fighting the fuelweaver

    If I remember correctly
    Gnat swarm prioritize higher light
    So if they tag on you, just run near some light sources (thunder bird is the easiest) and they will leave u

    • @polarlotus
      @polarlotus  5 месяцев назад +5

      This is true, it also is a huge issue for WX as gnat swarms will NOT leave an overcharged WX until the next day or if you take them to the gas rainforest/use bugbgone

    If you get nats on you can get them off you by moving toward a light and moving away. They want light, like moths.
