A method I like to use when manoeuvring the swamp is to look at my sanity meter to detect tentacles. If a large downward arrow shows, move away as you will be hit. A small arrow or no arrow, there’s none nearby. Requires a lot less concentration + friendlier to those playing on low/no volume as I usually do
@@ayoutubechannel6184 thats a good trick i didnt know. you can also precraft anything and then hover over the swamp and if you cant place it it means tehre is a tentacle
@@JamesBucket because of how large the sanity drain is from stepping near a tentacle (-40 max) I've found the world being in dusk or night not a problem using this technique
@@ayoutubechannel6184 it kind of depends, while the massive sanity drain is visible if you stand on top of tentacle, it's not THAT visible when you're simply around it but still close enough to get spanked. Not saying sanity method doesn't work, I resort to that very often, but I was just pointing out it requires extra caution when it's dark or if youre already on sanity drain by being wet or holding nightmare item.
I hear allot of people tell newer players to explore your entire world and wait till later in the season to set up your base, I'm hardly and expert, but I prefer to set up a base early on so by the time winter comes I'm already fully established, I'll only wait till day five or six at max to start a base. Lets face it, don't starve is a brutal game and you will die constantly at the start, if you're newer than there's no point looking for the ultimate base location that will carry you to day 600 if there's a good chance you might not make it to day 30, I say pick any location that has a good amount of resources and settle down, if you need to you can find a better spot later
It's less about picking the perfect location than it is about understanding the location of resources. If you don't have the world mapped out enough then you'll be stuck later on when you realize that you need something and have no idea where to find it. If you like to start on your base while exploring then I suppose that's fine, but I personally find it much more beneficial to wait at least until I understand where all of the important biomes are located before settling down.
Not gonna lie. Nowadays, I find basing right on the coast next to a few Wobster Dens is clutch, if you luck out and get butter say hello to Lobster diner, otherwise paired with Ice Wobster is an amazing healing food. Later after hitting the lunar island you can add stone fruit and Kelp stalks to your coastal base and eventually add the new Fig trees too. Not to mention the constant spawning of ocean fish when hanging out around base
Jazzy, I'm yet to find anyone do a guide on helping people learn to make good mega bases, like what to prep prior to starting, in what order to do things etc, right down to how to make it look nicer. I know you make some good bases so I'm hopeful you might consider this, as I'm sure by now there are many like me who can play this game without worry of death, and would enjoy making nicer bases
While true, drying monster meat is pretty much a waste of time. Cooked monster meat lasts quite long too, and frees your drying racks for small or big jerky which you can actually eat for a balanced food, while monster jerky is pretty much just hunger, so you can just cook it in a fire if you're starving that bad for almost the same effect.
Thank you so much for this! I've been playing Don't Starve since 2018 but I only recently got the opportunity to play DST and it's extremely intimidating with all the newer stuff in it. This is very very helpful!
Wow i defientley didnt knew about eggs being tradedable to pig king and totally forgot about shadow chester! i sually hoard like 6 stacks of monster meat on a fridge or for rot whenever i play wendy, webber or i set up an early spider farm!
When I base I look for dragon fly, pig king, oasis desert, mosaic meteor. Somewhere central around those areas. I kinda like the area around the spawn wormhole and the 3 road connecting below it. Boat bridge to oasis and boom really central. I'd just scout the meteor field rang and decide.
Long three chapter comment, brace yourself! I would love a base location guide. I am able to survive indefinetly (you're late, pal) and pick a decent spot for a base, but I am always unsure where to place the base. Placing it near immovable resources like swamp reeds or the pig king might seem good, but I dont need to visit those regularly. A guide which went through the thought process of where to base with a fresh world with an entirely revealed map for multiple worlds would be great! I often hear experienced players say that they can be sure where certain biomes or resources like the mushroom biomes or the ruins are as if some biomes often spawned next to each other. I'd love to learn what those patterns are (especially with an explanation on a couple filled or half-filled maps. I did some base layouting in a "creative world" and found a lot of the commands really unintuitive to use: For example c_maintainall() doesn't get recognized by the games command preview and countallprefabs("prefab name") doesn't actually return a value. A lot of the more complex commands (map revealing, season setting, etc.) on the wiki don't work either.
For base location, base near... Deserts: For cacti Swamp: For reeds Pig king For gold Specific setpieces: (dev graveyard, reed trap, e.t.c) for various other uses
As far as i know only muddy biome (the one with tons of light bulp and glow berry) and blue mushroom forest always spawn next to each other and ruins is always next to muddy biome.. As for bases i always settle near BQ and close to oasis if possible since volt goat and cacti is nice to visit often And if u tame beefalo early u can move around the map fast so u can base wherever u want.. U usually can get one fully tamed on early - mid winter if u rush one..
I'd say both transformations carry unique benefits. It's great having an Ice Chester in Summer if you're going to stay aboveground, for sure. But for early gathering that additional three inventory slots is still incredibly useful.
Jazzy for dst Salendrak for RoG they are both legends and both underrated Edit: and chester has 8 inventory slots, eyebone needs one slot, so you'll double your backpack capacity with him, bring him everywhere Another edit: in early game, don't craft golden axes, by doing that you'll trade a gold for two flints wich is not worth it.
1 more way to find tentacle is to look at the arrow of your sanity if its gettin big down then get away from there tecnicaly chester only gives 8 slots because you need to carry the eyebone to realy have him seeds i always have seeds for farms or just havein a stack on me for emergency food because seeds take long to spoil so its good to have some on you not every birchnut forest has gloomer there is a chance that the world has a second birchnut forest gloomer is always near pigking so if you find the not pigking birch forest dont look for gloomer wurt cant give things to pigking but webber and wortox can alsol i think to remember that pigking will allow dry monstermeat

I dont think they do. I often get sidetracked during exploration and start basing on day 18 or so and trying to find seeds for a bird cage in winter was a nightmare. I ended up finding some stale ones in mid-winter.
i dont know if you would agree but for a dont starve together guide wearing both a log suit and a football helmet may make newer players think that armour stacks, which isn't the greatest thing to find out doesnt work midway through a deerclops fight with your "96% armour, so you don't need healing". maybe clarify, but not rly necessary im totally not salty from one of my first deers ;-;
Step one in any n00by tutorial: Don't assume they know anything. I don't know how to build. All I can do is craft a torch and a fire and a trap. There is no other things to craft.

Pig King does accept monster jerky, so if you've been drying your meat there's no need to visit your bird before trading them in.
While true, drying monster meat is pretty much a waste of time. Cooked monster meat lasts quite long too, and frees your drying racks for small or big jerky which you can actually eat for a balanced food, while monster jerky is pretty much just hunger, so you can just cook it in a fire if you're starving that bad for almost the same effect.

If krampus stole a pan flute in my world I would rage quit right away
Can Krampus steal Chester's eye bone?
@@sproutingpotato6963 this is late, but the wiki says he can if the bone is in your backpack. Otherwise, no
jazzy you're the best DST player in my opinion XD
Can't wait for the next one!
Wow i defientley didnt knew about eggs being tradedable to pig king and totally forgot about shadow chester! i sually hoard like 6 stacks of monster meat on a fridge or for rot whenever i play wendy, webber or i set up an early spider farm!

I'm not a new player but I do what I must
The last time i saw any beginner video was so long ago
Good quality content
as wilson, saving tallbird eggs to make bacon and eggs with monster meat is a great idea, as being is favourite food he gets a huge 90 hunger
I never thought of making signs for wormholes and I never know which one goes where.)
Wow umm this world is great. That dragonfly location is so odd. Moonstone, mctusk, and even oasis not too far away
It would be awkward setting up a farm around the moonstone with those lava pools so close by.
Even tho im not a begginer, wstching beginer guieds (how does it spells????) is still interesting
guides xd
And dont forget new players there may be 2 deciduous forests not just one... Only 1 will have the pig king... Happy hunting and remember Dont Starve

Is there gonna be a third video in what I assume is the series for beginners? I'm no beginner, but I'm really enjoying this!
Yeah for sure. I definitely wanna run this guide at least up to Deerclops.
@@JazzysGames Hope it doesnt end there :)
What's that now about "chester"? I have never ever seen it in the game. Where does it hang out?
How does one put an alchemy machine in ones inventory?
Ice Chester is better since you can practically ignore the heat in the summer
I'd say both transformations carry unique benefits. It's great having an Ice Chester in Summer if you're going to stay aboveground, for sure. But for early gathering that additional three inventory slots is still incredibly useful.
And it’s really hard to get 9 blue gems early game
me not finding chester but farmed nightmare fuel and found the glomer statue but was too late to get the flower
i see this only coz i don't have anything alse i see to mach video of this game and i need more
Hey, just a question, can wigfrid eat volt goat jelly?
yes
Is this an updated version of the game ? Or are these graphics only for pc ???
lul did you weared a chester tophat when you said its very important to wear armor while in the swamp xD
Yup
Jazzy for dst
Salendrak for RoG
they are both legends
and both underrated
Edit: and chester has 8 inventory slots, eyebone needs one slot, so you'll double your backpack capacity with him, bring him everywhere
Another edit: in early game, don't craft golden axes, by doing that you'll trade a gold for two flints wich is not worth it.
Well, we only need right now are youtubers for the DLCs (Shipwrecked and Hamlet).
@@tiagolucasborges7581 perhaps
Beard isn't bad either, he gives a lot of helpful info and covers hamlet and shipwrecked sometimes too since he streams them.
Lol my favorite part 6:17
"u can just as eaily heal with the glance" WHAT DOSE THAT MEAN?
Spider glands.
hey jazzy
HOW CAN YOU KILL THE BUTTERFLY??
a question, can you turn chester into ice chester when its already nightmare chester?
Chester will respawn as normal Chester when someone/something kills him.
1 more way to find tentacle is to look at the arrow of your sanity if its gettin big down then get away from there tecnicaly chester only gives 8 slots because you need to carry the eyebone to realy have him seeds i always have seeds for farms or just havein a stack on me for emergency food because seeds take long to spoil so its good to have some on you not every birchnut forest has gloomer there is a chance that the world has a second birchnut forest gloomer is always near pigking so if you find the not pigking birch forest dont look for gloomer wurt cant give things to pigking but webber and wortox can alsol i think to remember that pigking will allow dry monstermeat

I am using this as a basis, for DS rog...so ima skip a few rules
I have question how can I have present in game and open in game, not in menu?
In an alchemy machine
how ur backpack slots in ur inventory
Integrated Backpack layout. You can change it in Settings.
@@JazzysGames thank you

Yeah with a clean sweeper.
I thought winter birds dropped seeds in winter?

@@JazzysGames oh ok. keep up the great work! :)
Why u use a helmet and wood armour at the same time? They don't combine in protection in DST...
Durability cost gets split.
chester has actually only 8 slots cause you loose 1 inventory slot cause of his eyebone.
