1.6 ancient seed day 1

[Sol]

World seed is 214 found on farm type standard, but seems to work with meadows.
No remix. seed will spawn in a dig spot in mountains, close to the locked off spa route.
(Note, spot seems slightly unstable)
I knew with the update the rng of world seeds would be altered so started hunting manually.
got lucky and found it fairly quickly, so here you go.

I feel that 1.6 seems to have tweaked several things, to make them more reasonable to come across.

I, too, found an ancient seed though not on Day 1, IIRC it was like the 3rd week of Spring. I remember noting while playing that certain things I used to have so much trouble getting, like the dwarven scrolls, seems like they are dropping much better now.

During 1.5, I did about 3-4 save files and in every single one of them, I'd come up 1-2 scrolls short by the time I got to the bottom of the mine.

In this playthrough, I have 3 out of the 4 scrolls and I just got to Floor 80 for the first time, and I saw scrolls 1 and 2 multiple times.

Odd I made this world 4 times so far, sometimes carrots and sometimes not. But have not seen an artifact spot for the ancient seed yet :(

Grats on the day 1 Ancient Seed, that's crazy good luck

[esotericist]

that's pretty wild. i was so excited about getting an ancient seed on spring 5 (when the mines opened up and i went mining)

i'm just hoping my old seed that sells red cabbage seeds on the same day you go visit the wizard still works.

I obtained it on day four. I wonder if its spawn rate increased or something.

I did say it's unstable, out of 20 remakes I got it to show up about 6 times in the same spot, still much better odds than just random rolling.

This seed also sells red cabbage seeds from traveling cart on the first Friday. Tested it 5 remakes, seems consistent.

You are a saint, I did more remakes after work and got it to work. Good find for sure, thanks!

Edit: I wonder what the remix bundles are and the remix mines are (if there is a hammer in the mines) might check out now :D

Not sure on the remixed bundles, but the remixed mines randomizes the chest drops on milestone floors. (Floor 10, 20,40 etc.) There is even some weapons you can only get this way, such as the ossified blade. NVM, looks like they changed it to where you can also get them from mystery boxes.

Where is the world seed?

[Crater]

What is the worth of ancient seed on day 1? I can think of far better things to get on day 1. Fish taco for example in a can would make an S tier run.

I started new playthrough, was fishing then went into mines properly (had only 10 levels done) after Egg Festival, got first seed from bugs. Got book doubling monster drops (Edit: says very small chance in description) next day, and then another ancient seed from bugs on day 16. I say, bring it on!

I plan to farm for copper, hopefully will get another one. Had to say, both days were ones with very good luck.

i mean, having ancient fruit popping pretty much at the start of summer of year 1 is pretty awesome? being able to feed those into a seed maker so you can put them in your greenhouse as soon as it's ready seems like a good thing to me.

Already in winter but still not found ancient seed (artifact), but Lucky enough traveling merchant sell ancient seeds for 250g in the summer
