Sometimes, it’s so easy to lose track of time doing all the activities in Stardew Valley. Unlike any farming games where the time will stop at specific locations, the time in Stardew Valley always flows like water. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, the time will progress. Players are always scared when venturing too far from their farm as their valuables might lost as they pass out. Fortunately, Stardew Valley allows you to get a tent.
Among all the unique items added in the update 1.6, the tent kit is probably the most interesting one. It eliminates the worry of being out of time, especially at night. Rather than running for home (which is likely not possible due to the distance), you can just use the tent and rest.
To get this game-changing item, there are some things you need to do first. Follow the guide on getting the tent kit in Stardew Valley below:
Getting The Tent KitThere’s one thing you should know before getting the Stardew Valley tent: the recipe. Just like most tools in the game, you will need to obtain the recipe first before you can craft an item. The recipe for the tent kit will unlock automatically once the player reaches Level 8 of Foraging.
To craft a tent kit, you will need to prepare some materials, such as 10x hardwood, 25x fiber, and one cloth.
Fiber can be obtaine from fishing, it’s actually a common item you can get from this activity. Make sure to fish in the river to get more fiber catch. Hardwood can be obtained by cutting down the Mahogany Trees and large logs in the farm. You can also cut some trees in other locations to get it.
Cloth is a different story. You won’t get it from traders. Instead, you will be required to go to the dungeons and start killing some mummies. These monsters only spawn in the Skull Cavern. Additionally, you can get cloth by processing wool and recycling newspapers.
Once the materials are collected, start crafting the tent in Stardew immediately.
Getting Free Tents
Aside from crafting the tent in Stardew Valley yourself, you can also get one free. We know that reaching Level 8 of Foraging may take a long time, especially for players who rarely increase this skill.
If that’s the case for you, you can find one for free. On Ginger Island, you may find a special box that contains three sets of tent kits. Its location is in the east part of the Jungle. To be specific, the box is near the palm tree at the lower right corner of the map.
Additionally, you may also get one from the Trout Derby. The tent kit is one of the rewards given to the winner.
How To Use A Tent Kit
Tent Kit is an outdoor item, so you can’t use it indoor. You can’t force your way as the item is meant to be placed outside. To use the tent kit, you will need to hold the item and place it on the ground. Interact with the tent to start resting.
Your game’s progress will be saved, and you will wake up the next day in the same manner of sleeping on your bed at home. As it’s a one-time item, the tent kit will disappear when you wake up.
Additional Tips
Aside from obtaining the tent in Stardew Valley, we also want to provide some tips that you need to know. The first one is about Foraging. Many plants grow randomly in the Stardew Valley, usually in empty lots, which we can pick up.
The beach can also be checked because there are shells or corals that can be picked up. You can sell the results or give them to NPCs (most women like flowers) because we cannot afford to give gifts in the form of agricultural products.
In the middle of Spring and Fall, the bushes can be red (spring) or blue (fall), and press x near the bushes to get many berries. The price of berries is low, so just keep the berries in your bag to give them to NPCs (only some people like them) or eat them yourself to increase their energy. At the beginning of each season of the first year, one type of wild plant was collected and brought to the Community Center.
The second one is about the cloth. Cloth is probably one of the trickiest items in the game, as you need to defeat some mummies. The dungeon itself is already hard, especially if you play the game solo.
Therefore, you can always play online if you’re stuck. To make the experience more fun, we highly recommend playing on a private server hosted by Scalacube.
