sanity for caves

[Julymorning]

how do i deal with constant sanity loss in the caves? my light source is limited (miner hat & fireflies) so i have to be mobile all the time, i cant even think of going down into the ruins

Grip your spear with white knuckles and swipe at the shadow horrors. Kill them. KILL THEM ALL!

Alternatively, find some green mushroom caps in a green mushroom mycelium biome, cook them, then eat them to gain sanity. And then there are all the normal means to gain sanity -- sleep in a tent (make sure you have enough food,) or wear sanity items to slow or stop the sanity loss, hire bunnies to be your friend, etc. Willow always gains sanity from fire, and one of the harder to unlock characters regenerates sanity at a fast rate, meaning caves will be nothing for them.

Also, whoah. Fireflies can't be your only light source, you'll run out of them waaay too fast. You can use the little light bulbs from the light bulb plants to fuel your miner's hat too.

You can recharge your miner hat with glowing flower balls that are in caves and ruins. There is a lot of them in there. As for sanity, I would recommend take a lot of honey and make a crockpot in caves. Make taffys - they will restore your sanity.

Cooked cactus flesh work well, too.

thanks for the tips, btw unfortunately i have to eat meat, i play as wigfrid

So jerky, then. Big or small. Give it to Chester or beware of bunnymen.

Also, beat up the MacTusks next winter and get yourself a Tam O'Shanter.

You can't wear Miner hat with Tam's hat

Since Wigfrid can only eat meat items, Jerky would be your best bet for sanity. Bunnymen villages would be your best choice if you are smart about it (+20 Sanity X bunnymen per day).

Miner hat with fireflies is not super effecient, find yourself a lightbulb field and use those to light yourself.. also get a lantern for when you need to use your head slot (like tam'o'shanter')

Lastly, keeping a spider nest around to slaughter spiders can bump up your sanity fast, a Lvl 3 spider nest is 9 spiders, or +45 Sanity a day. (more like 40 after the slow decrease around them.)

make smal jerky, or take green cap with you,, green mushrooms can be collected in cave's aswel
with a bid off luck you even find a field of it

light, use lantern and find the field of lightbulbs,
clothing, use tam o shanter,and a dapper vest wil help aloth
minerhat helps aswel, but you can't use the tam o shanter then or a football helmet when fighting

wigfrid + -> unlimited caving

Taffy, jerky, tophat, use light buls or slurtle slime instead of fireflies.
