10 Mistakes To Avoid In Disney Dreamlight Valley 

Digging in the sunlit plateau is great for clay! Also never ever sell iron ore, SO MANY quests use iron bars and you’ll need it all! I spent so many hours farming iron

Always remember to unlock the well, because you can move the well to areas in a given biome that you may not be able to access with your current tool upgrades. Move well over to the inaccessible area, fast travel, accessible area is yours. You can also move fruit bushes and trees from parts you can't access, to parts of the map you can.

I’m so glad stardew made me into a item hoarder because I came so close to selling everything before looking for tips

Every non-shiny gem is used in crafting and many of the non-shiny gems are used in quests. Plus NPCs may occasionally have them as a favorite gift for the day. Saving non-shiny gems is very important. I learned this a while ago. I have come to a realization that every single Shiny Gem is useless outside of selling them so I ALWAYS sell them. Shiny Gems are worth a lot more, so Shiny Gems are very specific for solely selling by the way they are designed. Very rarely Shiny Gems are a favorite gift, but it isn't worth giving them as a gifts to be honest.

Grinding gems is easy. Even if you don't see gems in it, they still can have gems in it. If I go mining with a disney character that I signed mining too, then it's even easier. the places where the gems are refresh pretty fast. So you can sell your gems, you don't have to hold on to it. You just need a mining buddy

Clay spawns more readily in the rain. I made 250 clay with my mining buddy just digging the edges of the glade (took about 30-45mins) in rain compared to the same amount of time I spent in the sunlit plateau in sun and got 5 clay and a lot of soil.

I think digging for clay is better if you do it while it's raining. First time I dug in the glade of trust, I got around 30-40 clay with 2 fully charged energy bars (blue and yellow bars, 2 times). I dug in the same biome after it started raining, also with 2 fully charged energy bars, and I got 80 clay. I would need to do more extensive testing, but to get more than double, such a large difference during rain, seemed like more than a mere coincidence.

You don't even have to look at the screen when fishing. Click when you hear the audio cue. I literally watch movies while fishing. What I want them to fix is the NPC's standing on the same spot as you. Almost every time I get a flashing gold plant I cant harvest it because Minnie or whoever will run up to harvest from the same node I'm on. This initiates a conversation because the harvest button is the same as the conversation button (at least with an xbox controller on a PC it is). Don't invade my personal space, NPC's need to keep a 6 feet distance at least.

Planting in each biome is only supposed to be 10% faster, so if it's easier, then just plant in one space

I found that growing most crops in the proper biomes didn't really matter for speed because I wouldn't actually harvest them quicker. But I think for some of the later unlocking crops with longer grow times it might be worth it . . . hmm.

You don't need to change the time on your console. There is a slider in the options menu to offset the hours in the game so it's daylight.

Gems respawn so quickly, you can save 10 of each in one day and still continue to sell some after keeping them. You CAN and should keep selling them and using them for money, but yes keep some. But they respawn so quickly and so often that it's not a big deal

Honestly there really is no reason to time travel mainly because unlike Animal Crossing the shops don't close. A very few amount of characters will be asleep but if anything I've found only about 2 to maybe 3 will be asleep at the same time. Also in case you didn't know like Goofy's stalls the bottom row for Kristoffs stall changes every day so sometimes you can find some of the really good rarer materials on different days. I always check every day & buy up the clay, glass, bricks, rope, etc anytime I see them since they tend to be a tad harder to amass.

Glade of Trust and Sunlit Plateau are both great spots for clay digging💜

Good tips! Not gonna lie, I used my gems on Ursula and Ariel since they are not able to hang out.

I just started playing and this was super helpful. Thanks!

I keep forgetting that this game is still in early access and i dont have worry about completing all of the quests too fast. There's still tons of other features that will be added to the game.

You always have great tips! ever since RU-vid suggested your stardew videos I've been a fan

Thinking about doing a dive in the game. Your Stardew tips helped my play throughs. 🎉🎉

The one mistake I did was giving my cookies away to the squirrel. 😭

I'm so happy you have dreamlight valley content!!

Omg you are a genius I thought doing a gem box and fish box was clever. You have opened my eyes to some great ideas thanks a ton!

I don't really understand why they let us build SO MANY floors and rooms in our house lol. I mean, it's cool and all, we'll certainly have enough space to display all the stuff we accumulate over time, but I've played enough 'resource gathering and crafting' games (like Ark, Minecraft, Fallout etc) to know that I will use functional rooms that actually serve a purpose far more than I'll use purely decorative rooms. Like, I have 4 rooms at the moment. The main entrance room (lounge), a kitchen (with a stove and chests full of different food items), a workshop (with a crafting table and chests full of resources) and a bedroom. I literally never go in the bedroom. There's nothing of use in there. I don't store or craft anything in there, so I have no reason to ever go in there. I may add more rooms in future, but they will most likely be storage rooms.

The ammount of times I said "Oooohhhhh!" watching this video is ridiculous 😂 cant wait to try these amazing tips!

Hello I'm new to your channel Thank you for this video I've been playing disney dreamlight for a couple months and had absolutely no clue that you could remove everything at once Definitely helps

For the fishing, I find the easiest for me isn't to watch for the green circle, but to feel the controller vibrate. Once I feel the bzzz, then hit it!

You do not need to dig in wet spots in the glade, any spot you dig has a chance of getting clay

for the record, currently in Settings you can offset the clock to get daylight even if playing at night

Such great tips. I mistakenly crafted dreamlight early game and later got a quest where I needed the gems! 🤦

WE CAN MOVE THE BUILDINGS AND WELLS?! Okay, I’m just new to this game and my younger sis got me playing to help, and we both never knew we could do this qoq. Thank you !!

Yeah.. there is 20 floors. It's expensive. Also the biome crop buff is something like 10 seconds difference lol. If you clear out the meadows you won't have pumpkins going every direction when you open the fence after harvest.

New here, great tips I can still learn from even after playing since it’s released. Thank you!

I'm in love with the with the way you say "Punkins". :)

I sell the gems to make a TON of money, it's not hard to mine more and if you have mining buddies its even easier plus it builds friendship. Fish also is a great way to make lots of money, again use a fishing buddy to get double fish, I just keep a couple of types of fish and sell the rest, fishing is easy and Moanas boat gives you heaps as well.

grinding for gems is an easy way for cash especially early game tho. i don’t have access to pumpkins yet, and the other higher-cost veggies take too long to grow when i need a quick 10k to upgrade or build someone’s house. I grab my maxed-out mining buddy (scrooge, currently), turn on youtube for background noise, and mine thru the plaza, meadow, glade, beach, and forest on a loop. by the time i finish mining in the forest the plaza’s stones have respawned (honestly when I only had the plaza, meadow, and beach unlocked they respawned by the time i was done on the beach), so I can just go around and around endlessly and rack up 20k in gems easily. and when I do need specific gems for a quest I just make sure to include that biome in the loop and use it as an opportunity for some extra money i do enjoy mindlessly stripmining in minecraft, tho, so maybe that’s why i don’t mind grinding for gems lol

how did I not know you played this??? I'd love to see you revisit it!

Thanks for the great tips! ❤🥰

I ususally keep 5 shiny, and 10 non shiny gems in a chest and sell the rest. As fas as I saw, the quests ask for a max of 5 non shiny gems at a timegems and you will make most of what you needed back in one go anyway, but until now, I'v never had a problem with this amount.

I moved the restaurant and scrooges store to the meadow so I can have the plaza for my crops and fruit tree. Clay was a pain to get for that one quest you mentioned. I’m so glad it is done

i can't play this game but i just love watching you play this game haha

Some great tips, thank you!

0:05 that is some impressive editing

For some reason I didn't think about moving the teleportation wells. That'll help a lot.

Basically save a stockpile of everything just in case.

I was wondering why i recognize the music despite never having played the game…. i realized it’s music from Stardew Valley ❤😂

I just saw this on tiktok, I am excited to play this game when they release the full version 🥰

Yay for new content on a new game!

Great tips. Only complaint is Moana is “Moe on a”

wow thanks i didn't know about kristofs shop ill definitely try and get them maxed

!!! MOVING TELEPORTATION WELLS,CAN CORRUPT THE GAME AN LETS IT START TO GLITCH!!! Please be careful, when you move wells ❤️ And also: Don‘t buy the white pullover from Duck. You won’t be able to wear the item.

I always sell my gems. They’re easy af to get and I get some of every kind with one round of the valley

Eggplants actually give a better return on investment, as far as selling raw vegetables is concerned. Each eggplant seed costs 95 coins, and yields one eggplant that sells for 308 coins. Each pumpkin seed, however, costs 275 coins, and yields one pumpkin that sells for 664. The profit on the eggplant is +224%, whereas the profit on a pumpkin is +141%. Taking into consideration that you will most likely be accompanied by a follower with the gardening skill, the return on eggplants is pushed even farther ahead of pumpkins. If a follower gives an additional veggie on a harvest, the return on an eggplant is then +548%, while a pumpkin is a paltry (by comparison) +383%. Eggplants also take one less hour to grow. This detail is only important if you're someone who is strict about checking crops, to water and harvest them when needed. If you're someone who only checks once per day, then you likely won't even notice the difference. Even still, from a strictly returns-based perspective, eggplants are the better option. While the lump sum you get for selling a stack of eggplants may be only about half of what you would get from a stack of pumpkins, keep in mind that you also spend nearly three times as much for each pumpkin seed. Economics. Edit: Please do note that I have not done the math for every crop in the game. There _may_ be a crop that gives even better returns than eggplants do. I am simply saying that eggplants are definitely a better choice than pumpkins.

just started playing and i just want to say thankyou so much for not spoling anything

I finished almost all quests beside for Ariel Ursula and Eric which I Have yet to unlock and I never really needed farm for to much besides clay

i usually sell the shiny gems and keep the regular ones, do you rec keeping the shiny ones as well?

I just built the clock tower before I talked to Minnie!! My game has been so buggy I was afraid of it crashing and losing all my resources... Now I gotta get all that clay and iron again!!!

I wish I knew about the time travel bug sooner! I'm hoping it fixes itself. I can't collect herbs and its really bugged my game.

I save 50 of everything. More if it’s crafting supplies. But besides that I’ll sell pretty much everything. Sure it may make the quests take a bit longer. But I don’t want the game to be done soon. I wanna enjoy the game for longer.

The gem tip is so true. I idiotically set all my characters to mining and have an abundance of gems so I have no problem selling gems but nothing is worse than selling a gem then having Merlin tell you to harvest 15 of them.

Don't move any Goofy stall prior to having them opened by McDuck - you cannot open them

How in any way is it hard to level up a character with feet? I don't know if doing their skill makes them level faster, but Eric took like a couple hours, maybe, to max. I just did my gardening, then I think I did some mining. Swimming characters are the only "hard" ones to level.

With the newest patch, you can only buy a cap of 3 to 5 of each item of Kristoff’s 😢miss those 99 days. Glad I stacked when I could with coal lol

Anyone else notice how if you finish all the tasks for the Pixar event you get just enough points to unlock all the items and only than can you get the final reward of only 175 moonstones but in order to do that you have to buy the 10 Pixar event points for 200 moonstones. Makes no sense

I’ve already created a bunch of chests in my house and I’ve stocked piled of every resource. Food and materials. I’ll use some and restock.

You can change the time in settings- graphics- time offset with no issue

I found with the time altering one, it's less glitchy if you have the game closed, before changing the time. This isn't always the case, but it helps.

You see the bridge what was in if you move the well over to that side is it on the other side move the world over to your side unlock And then put it past the bridge and then teleport to that

OMG I didn't know growing plants in different areas could make them grow faster. Could you maybe explain better about where which one grows faster?

1 problem I have, is when it's night. the characters thinks it's morning. plus rn, I can't collect the light bulb in Wall Es mission

If you want a lot ooney take your body for soshing and fish beetween 6pm and 10pm for example on beach , you will gain specialnfish which you can sell for 2k. Make a berey salad, it gives a lot energy, fish a lot, a lot easy money. Sometimes is a lot of seaweed but the friend will double the fish. Fish outside the circles.

If you go into settings, you can offset the time

Do you have instructions for how to fix time travelling? When I downloaded the game my switch was set to sometime in December (from playing Animal Crossing and time travelling). I was never able to collect the blue treasure chests. When I set my switch back to present day/time the fruit no longer spawns on trees/bushes and I couldn't interact with any crops. I time travelled back to the future and have just been playing without the blue chests.

Great Video!

With your house being so big, did it increase your original storage chests space? How big is it now, with so many floors?

Thank you so much, I bought the game 3 days ago and have learned the hard way not to give away my gems! Two minutes after giving away one of my emeralds I found I needed it! Two minutes I swear!!! Is there a way to get rid of a companion the blue turtle is a pain, it gets in the way constantly, I made a pet house but it won’t stay there. Any tips? 🤷

Make sure you use the glittering herring for the fish pie not the pickled herring I made that mistake

You can offset the time in the game settings. So mine is like 6 hours ahead since I always play around 10 at night… this way it’s daytime!

ohhh noo squasha need to see thisss

I wish I could move Goofy's stalls out of their biomes so I could make a little farmers market but its not possible (at this time) :(

My game shut down due to an error. When the game came back on, Scrooge is still waiting for signs to be placed around the valley- even though I already did 3 and now don't recall the recipe. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Dumb question...I have two chests in a room full of gems/flowers (i'm dividing the resources in chests for future quests/gifts), If i remove the chest so I can add it to another room....does my stuff stay in them or do I lose 'em?? lol

I made a mistake and not saving hard wood, now I need like 300 for a couple quests

So helpful thank you

How do I get my early access fox? Shows in mailbox doesn’t show in companions 🤷🏻‍♀️

got so many floors in my house, might make them different storage rooms or something.

As someone who has already completed all available quests in the game. I don’t really care about hoarding things. I already have enough. Now I’m just building on cash and dreamlight.

How do I get Kristoff's stall to increase its quantities? My stall only let's me buy 3 5 or 10 depending the item. How do you get it to 99 like this video shows?

It's so hard on the Xbox to move things around. Are you playing on the PC?

Thanks for the Vid

Go into the settings then go into graphics and you can offset the time of day

Love your orlisian accent

Good idea for the dream shards. I’m keeping mine because they seem harder to get.❤

In the PS4 version I stopped making storage chests..I just drop everything in front of my house ..then when I need them I just pick up what I need 🤣🤣

I think they let you keep adding floors just incase if you want more space to put more furniture like if you wanna create more than one bedroom

I still can’t feed an alligator 😭 they just run away, I’ve tried everything!

I'm stuck on the quest where you have to buy blue furniture for Merlin. Nothing works for me and I can't continue with tbe quest or the game.

There is a time offset feature in the game

About the fishing i always click when i hear sound

Can you not change your time zone instead of the time itself? Does that cause the same bug?

Okay so if you're like me and NOT REALIZE THAT YOU COULD CRAFT DREAMSHARDS! You're okay lol. What's pissing me off atm is getting hardwood. All the wood look the same BUT not the dry wood. So! when they have me do a freaking quest and I need hardwood....I only need like 20 but noooooo it took me weeks just to collect it! There spawn time is random I guess and I only get like 2 rarely 3 if I'm freakin lucky! Also I'm having trouble finding Donald's socks
