The Stardew Valley Trophy Guide has been updated

[SquidGeneral10]

Hey gamers,

So if any of you tried to use the Stardew Valley trophy guide a couple months ago, you'd have noticed that it was a bit outdated - the guide didn't mention that there was new monsters to kill for the adventure guild, new recipes for both cooking and crafting, and it could've used some clarification in some areas. 

 

That's all been updated now.

 

I was added to the guide to bring its content up to the most recent update (1.5) and will probably do so again for 1.6 onwards, but I hope you all find the updated guide useful.

 

Things you can expect:

• A section that explains the Multiplayer mechanics added in 1.3 and how it impacts trophies
• A full explanation of how to downgrade the game to version 1.00, which would put certain money-making glitches back in the game
• More detail, notes, percentage chances and images added to the museum trophy's description*
• Custom art assets that show every villager's favourite gifts for the friendship trophy**
• Images and extra recipes from new updates added to the 'cook every recipes' trophy
• Images and extra crafted items from new updates added to the 'craft all items' trophy
• Detail, notes, images and extra fish from new updates added to the 'catch all fish'  trophy
• Images, seasonal information and 'where to get seeds' information added to the 'ship 15 of each crop' trophy
• Images, seasonal information, 'where to get seeds' and additional notes added to the '300 of one crop' trophy
• Images, information and new items required added to the 'ship every item' trophy
• Images, information and information about the new bundle added to the 'complete the community center' trophy
• Link to the wiki added for information on remixed bundles - I thought it might confuse people if they were all on there.
• Called you a monster for siding with Joja in the 'joined joja' trophy description
• Tons of extra detail, images, 1.5 tips and a very useful 'Cheese Fector' video added to the Fector's Challenge trophy description
• Clarified and added detail to the 'full house' trophy. Also added the bachelors & bachelorette's images.
• Added 1.3 note to the 'Master of the 5 ways' trophy, since you can now change your skill professions in the sewer.
• Added images, new monsters and their spawn locations to the 'adventure guild' trophy

 

* This part might be a bit too cluttered - any ideas for cleaning it up and keeping the relevant information would be much appreciated.

** The text on these might be a bit hard to read, so if anyone has major trouble reading them just let me know and I'll look into editing them.

 

I also considered writing a companion guide for the new 'Ginger Island' stuff that got added in 1.5, but it's probably easiest to just look at the wiki (and more fun to figure it out yourself) so unfortunately 'A Ginger's Guide To Ginger Island' has been scrapped

 

So... yeah! It's not been easy but I hope the hard work pays off and this helps you all get that iridium-quality platinum. 

 

Happy hunting!

I have this in my backlog and was aware the guide was outdated, thank you for your hard work to update it!

Yep! You just need to beat it once, then on the day after you'll get a home version in the mail that you can play whenever.

Thanks for updating it!

Did Fector’s challenge solo on the vita last September. Boy that mini-game was sure a test of patience and perseverance ?. Glad to see that they added coop to this marvelous game. Hopefully coop makes it a bit easier for folks to earn this tricky trophy ? thank you for updating the guide ?

Unfortunately I don't think it will ? not unless your co-op partner beats it normally for you, since that'd give you a home version. Now I think about it, that might not be a bad idea for anyone struggling ?

I was convinced that this feature wasn't in the PS4 version for aaages, but turns out I missed it somehow - the game does track the items you have and haven't crafted.

 

Go to Options and tick 'Show Advanced Crafting Information', and the game will tell you the number of each item you've crafted when you're in the crafting menu. Especially useful when you think you've crafted everything but may have only missed one, like I did.

 

Guide has been updated to explain this, too.

 

Hope this helps, happy crafting

So if I understand this right, co-op has no negative impacts for trophies? My friends have been bugging me for years to play this lol

Great job Squid, it’s clear you guys put a ton of work into the guide so thank you! When I get around to tackling this one I know I’m going to be relying on it quite a bit. ?

I wouldn't say none - a few examples I can think of off the top of my head: 

• The cooking trophy becomes harder, as the TV show that gives you recipes may show ones you don't need but your partner does. In single player, it will only show ones you are missing.
• You'll need to craft an extra item for the craft all items trophy, and it's one with a pretty chunky recipe (wedding ring, needs 5 iridium bars)
• You can keep players' money balances separate, but combining them will let the other player spend your money on anything, anytime.
• If you both want to marry a certain NPC but they put on a ring on it first, you'll just have to sadly groove to Beyoncé and marry someone else.

That's all I can think of for now. AFAIK you won't get locked out of any trophies in co-op but it'd be best to skim around the internet first to see if I'm wrong.

'Ello, me again - this is just a quick update, but was pointed out by @smsyx and I wanted to share it here, too.

 

Protector of the Valley, the trophy for completing all the monster slayer goals in the adventuring guild, is buggy.

 

Before you panic, it's not that bad - you just need to be careful about the order you're completing the slayer goals.

 

Basically, if you complete the Magma Sprite slayer goal last, the trophy will not unlock. You'd need to start a new save file and let one of the other slayer goals be the last one you complete to unlock the trophy. To my knowledge, it's only leaving these guys til last that causes the glitch - the last goal I completed before unlocking the trophy was the one for Pepper Rex monsters, and I had no problems.

 

The annoying thing is that magma sprites are one of the last monsters you'll encounter through regular gameplay - you need to unlock Ginger Island and access the volcano dungeon to find them in the first place, and then you need to kill 150 of the lil' bastards, giving you plenty of time to kill everything in the desert dungeon first like I almost did. So be careful, it's an easy glitch to stumble into!

 

The guide has also been updated and the trophy has been tagged as buggy. Cheers!

I can't make the [163][166] glitch to work for me.

 

I've downgraded to v1.00, but when I set my name to [163][166] the game changes it to just 163 166

 

What is wrong?
