The Cove: Do's and Don't's ( Curios)

[Micolash Cage]

Alright. With the new curios and stuff, we need a guide to let people know what you should use on each of them. Let me start: Do NOT use a shovel on the round rock shaped thing. Just... don't.

[Satoru]

But surely there is buried treasure under round shaped rocks! Years of RPGs have never let me down before. What could possibly go wrong :P

[ZirzoR]

Use shovel on the huge clam/oister thing for reward.

The barnacle chest is just a regular chest, nothing works on it ;P

The small pool thing heals you abit if you use antivenom on it, dno if it has more things to it.

Hm... Strange. I used shovel on barnacle chest. It was super effective.

Does a Shambler come out or something?

if you have Virtue chance up trinkets it could actually be worth the gamble

Not to be an ass but whats a "round rock shaped thing" ? this isnt very clear.

[The AntQueen]

The whale carcass curio gives a positive affect if you use medical herbs on it, I got a key+medical herbs+a bit of gold off of it. Don't know what negative effects could happen as I only encountered one so far.

I didn't check the name. I'll tell you when I see another one of these. They're pretty rare based on my experience so far.

Using herbs on the eerie coral removes a negative quirk! Always a handy outcome to have

It's called a Bas Relief. It's a type of sculpted picture, typical of old temples and the like. In this case, I'm pretty sure it's a subtle reference to The Call of Cthulhu though.

Some of the thing I have found so far:

Barnacle Covered Chest >> Shovel (Treasure)
Fish Carcass >> Herbs (Food and Treasure)
Fish Idol >> Holy Water (Temporary Buff, like the Ruins suit of armor)
Ancient Figurehead >> Nothing (Temporary Buff, like the Ruins suit of armor)
Eerie Coral >> Herbs (Remove Negative Quirk)
Brackish Tide Pool >> Antivenom (Healing)

[Smurffle]

Ive noticed you can use firewood on Bas-Relief.... Has any1 tried this? im not sure i want to risk it at this point.

This is worth thousands of gold and should be used and abused.
