Day/Dusk/Night: These are on a 10 minute cycle but Night grows longer while day becomes smaller as you move into Fimblewinter

Bloodmoon: On a 4 day Cycle.

Summer/Winter: 14 day cycle (Survival Only)

Just wanted to note, This is a slower paced completion. You are VERY capable of completing the following within 6 days. It has been written specifically for the casual to regularly complete in a steady time frame.


Before we begin, I would like to go over the timing of the days. You begin at the start of day 1. Every night you are attacked by "Helthings" that you must defend against. Every 4th Night you recieve a "Bloodmoon" which is just a harder version of other nights but it also gives you the next night attack free. You also have Jotunn's making their way to your base on regular intervals. You can locate and defeat these giants by following the red arrow around your minimap. Also, there is a chest in your village that is shared. Unload your resources there to give your Tribe access to them. They are also directly connected to your crafting stations and buildings (not counting Quarry, Lumberyard, and farm) so you can craft directly without needing anything in your inventory. Lets begin.


Objectives:
-Tinkerer to level 3
-Quarry built
-Lumber Mill Built
-Bridge DIscovered
-Bridge Built
-Portal Reopened
-Saga Boss Killed
-EXTRA



Day 1:

Spend the day gathering resources. You should focus mostly on stone and iron but be sure to grab a few trees along the way. If you can, try to make your way to the first swamp you run across. You want to find silver as early as you can but also, swamps are great areas for small bones from goblins, stone, iron, and spikes from the dragons if you dare to 1v1 them. A quick tip for fighting them, swing once or twice before stepping back to avoid damage. Rinse and Repeat.

Day 2:

By this point you should have your Tinkerer to level 2. Preferably 3 as this allows you to begin construction of the quarry. By the end of day 3 the quarry should be rebuilt and you should start working on Lumber Mill. Make sure you are regularly upgrading your tools as well for better gathers per node.


(Tinkerer NPC)

Day 3:

This should be the last day you spend trying to get the Lumber Mill and all pre-reqs finished. continue exploring to find the bridge on the map.


Day 4:

Bloodmoon Nights Show up every 4 days. By now you may have invested in leveling up your blacksmith and armorer while all the previously mentioned tasks have been finished. If you havent found the bridge, keep looking.


Day 5:
Bloodmoon is done, but now you have a Jotunn problem. IF you havent already killed it, you should do so now. Take the day killing the giant and make sure everyone loots him afterwards. You need the frags for the portal.

Day 6:

With any luck today you have found the bridge and began construction on it. This can take a few days but with the quarry and the lumber mill rebuilt, you have a steady influx of resources. Continue to explore the map because now you should be making sure you have found all 4 sorcerer markers. You will need this to buy any fragments you are missing by the time you begin opening the portal on the other side of the bridge.


Day 7:

Should you need to, continue work on exploring and gathering souls and building the bridge. You may hopefully have completed this task and have begun working on the portal requirements. Anything you are missing (likely the hideout fragments, quest fragments, and event fragments) You can hop around to all the sorcerer locations in order to buy the remaining fragments for the portal.


Day 8:

Take the day to locate the Jotunn and work his health down if possible. You have a bloodmoon tonight and you need to use this time of peace for the next 2 days and 1 night fighting the Saga Boss. You should be done or nearly done with reopening the portal.

Day 9:

So you have survived a bloodmoon and hopefully finished off Jotunn. Get inside that portal ASAP and begin knocking down that massive HP pool of the Saga Boss. Take your time as you have 2 days and a night to complete this.

Day 10+:

Hopefully you have completed all of the above and you can now bifrost out. But wait. did you know, that if you stay until day 16, yes, 16 not 15, that you can unlock the Warden class? Not only that, but your XP gains are also determined by the amount of time in the game! So sure, you have finished your run, but why leave immediately? You have SO much to gain from this point. With the only threats from here on being the Jotunn and 1 bloodmoon you are sure to hang in there.

Additional Information: If you are playing with others, be sure to mention any time you destroy a barrier as the loot drops an instance of itself for everyone playing! These are a great way for quick resources for construction. Same works for Ancient chests. Its the 3 dotted blue icons on the map. If you reach one by placing down ramps, you can open it for a guaranteed souls potion (500 souls) and it drops one for everyone playing too! So be sure to share your findings either in voice or by typing it in the chatbox.

The TEAL icon in the middle of this picture is a location called "Ancient Chest". If you find one of these and go to open it, Tell EVERYONE in the game. This chest drops a soul potion for everyone on the map. Thats 500 souls EACH. Just one of these can be a game changer in the early days of a run.

You can also do this trick with Barricades that you come across while exploring. If you see someone nearby, have them loot with you as it provides easy early resources for your constructions.

Ranger: FREE


Warrior: FREE


Guardian: Pretty straight forward. Kill 3 giants in 1 SAGA run before leaving the match.


Seer: Take the Bifrost 10 times, Again, straight forward. Do yourself a favor though, before deciding to instantly Bifrost out, see if its likely to get a few more horns that run. Maybe even a SAGA win.


Hunter: Explore, Explore, Explore. Go EVERYWHERE. If you cant see the water around the entire map, check those locations too. Shrines can be hidden in some of the silliest places.


Berserker: This is one most have issues with. There are actually 2 fairly easy ways to complete this.
First: Go into the Swamps, preferably near multiple medium+ camps (The larger red fire icons on the map). Round everything up, kill quickly, PROFIT
Second: Around 10+ days - Have the Helthings pile up on the doors and before the doors break, clear 'em out.

Sentinel: I've heard this gives people issues too. Its pretty simple actually. Find 5 goblins in the swamps, shield up, and wait. (Try to keep the power-level of the swamp low if possible)


Warden: Honestly, Just don't let the world tree die for 16 days. Pretty simply put.
