Candy Trinkets - An Important Question About Obtaining

[eladswerdna]

There are 2 types of candy that exist within the game world of Grounded. One, is a one-time gathering only type, and the other is the type that respawns.

I have been after the Suspicious Ice Cap trinket, and I have been scum-saving some candies in one of those one-time-only candy containers.

The only video I can find on the internet of someone actually finding one of these things is from a candy that can respawn.

My question is: Do the trinkets ONLY come from the candies that can respawn, or can you also get them from the one-time-spawn candies? Because... I am having no luck, after probably 500 candies.

I know the drop rate is 1%. I know it's possible I am just really unlucky, but, I was wondering if anyone has found one from a candy inside one of those clear cases? (to verify)

Thanks in advance!

the Trinket can be found on any candy you hit. on the ground, on a table, or in a candy case. stop looking for it, and when it does happen it'll seem to happen quicker. the only trinket more likely to show up is the fluffy tuft.

as far as I know, it can come from either, but since it has such a low chance of dropping, odds are that it will more than most likely drop from a respawning mint. unless, of course, you are super lucky and get it early on from one of the mints that doesn't respawn.

that is definitely bad luck, and I feel your pain. took me days and days worth of hours to get the fungal trinket.

I don't think save scumming works tbh. I've seen and heard conflicting reports about this. some say it works, some say it doesn't.
I tried it once with the wasp queen, must have reloaded around 30 times, and I didn't get the drop. yet, fighting her just a handful of times, I have a few of her trinkets now.

as far as I'm concerned, infected brood mother's trinket is the most common. seems like every other fight it drops.

although, iirc, it does have a 5% higher drop chance than the others?

please correct me if I'm wrong there XD

I recently got the salt trinket using save scumming. It took about 30 reloads in the salt mine, and I swear it worked.

I once got 2 salt trinkets in the sandbox on my first playthrough. My veteran friend was amazed. It's all luck.

I am still doing testing with this... I have been save scumming my ass off trying to get this trinket. I will report my results.

i got my suspicious ice cap from the clear case near the machine in the center of the lasers i guess i was really lucky i haven't seen any other trinkets so far though .

[FoamySlobbers]

2 days into my new start, I got the infected trinket.

[eladswerdna]

I am still at it. I have been doing many hours of scum saving, doing various routes and combinations of harvesting the mint candies. I have probably smashed around 2500 of these damned things... I am starting to question my own sanity.

I managed to get the spicy trinket today, which was on my list. Still no ice cap trinket... I will keep trying! It's literally the last trinket I need, except for the infected brood mother one.

Save scumming does work as that's how I got my salty trinket. About 4 or 5 reloads in the antlion den full of salt crystals and I had it.

I got another salt trinket... still no minty one. Will keep trying!

generally, I would take your word for it. I've seen alot of your posts, and you know what you're talking about.

it's just that, in my testing, on numerous occasions, it has never worked.

one might say that it's simply due to bad rng, but I've reloaded 30-40 times, each time I tested, and it never made a difference.

I am curious, how long ago this worked for you? I have this vague memory, that save scumming was patched at some point. maybe I'm wrong there.

all I know, in my experience, it does not work

I'm also curious, just how many hours it took you to smash "2500" mints?

Don't bother imo. They're not worth that much effort.
