Best Biomes For What

Best Biomes For What
Posted 2021-03-09 00:53:06 (edited)

I have no idea how accurate this is. I just started to notice that I was going to certain biomes for certain things (Desert for HP, Swamp for SC) and I started to wonder if it was more likely to get certain things in one biome more than an other and if I could use that to some benefit. So this is what I made today but thus far haven't done extensive tests. All data thus far is based on Grouse House: Explore Encounters first and foremost and then I'm going to slowly add my own experience - since I've noticed that some encounters are more common than others. (So that's why I go to Swamp for quick SC grinding rather than Rainforest, even if encounters would suggest Rainforest is better. But I don't have data to back it up just yet.) 

So for the time being, this is all subjective and I'll be running some tests over the next couple days to see what turns up. If anyone wants to pitch in, go for it! <3


Best Biomes for what:

Best for Amusement Items (based on numbers of use):

  • Glacier: +37 possible uses out of 8 encounters
  • Swamp: +31 possible uses out of 7 encounters
  • Rainforest: +27 possible uses out of 6 encounters
  • Mountains: +26 possible uses out of 6 encounters


Best to feed Lead Wolf (% of hunger):

  • Desert:  5-10% // 10% // 5% // 2% // +Spring: 10% (4-5 encounters)
  • Tundra: 8% // 5-9% // 5% // 5% (4 encounters)
  • Glacier: 12% // 5% // 10% (3 encounters)


Best for Food Items (based on food points):

  • Tundra: 53 food points / 8 encounters
  • Deciduous Forest: 33 + Summer: 1-4 food points / 6 encounters
  • Prairie: 31 + Summer: 1-4 food points /  8 encounters


Best for Herbs: 

(All have 4 encounters that can potentially produce herbs.)

  • Deciduous Forest
  • Grasslands
  • Mountains
  • Coniferous Forest
  • Prairie
  • Riparian Woodland


Best for Acorns:

  • Grasslands: 4 encounters (one Summer dependent)
  • Mountains: 3 encounters (one 100% likely for an acorn and one Summer dependent)


Best for Energy:

  • Prairie (Two encounters. Hardly worth noting - not strong enough disparity.)
  • Encounters closer to the 3 starter biomes are more likely to give higher % of energy? I think?


Best for Lucky Feet:

  • Taiga (5 possible encounters, 1 Acorn dependent)


Best for HP:

  • Desert (2 HP encounters // 8 HP + 3 HP) 
  • (Glacier, Tundra, and Rainforest have more HP available encounters, but also more encounters that you'll lose HP on - often the same encounter that you'd potentially gain HP on.)


Best for Healing Salve:

  • Coniferous Forest (2 encounters possible)


Best for SC:

  • Glacier (10-18 SC)
  • Rainforest (9-19 SC)
  • Swamp (7-22 SC) 

While Coniferous Forest offers most SC possible, encounters are rarer and possible receival of SC is lower than in Swamp, Rainforest, and Glacier.

Data:

Coniferous Forest: 7 encounters / (24) possible SC (max) / 7 encounters where there's possibly no reward

Prairie: 7 encounters / (21) possible SC (max) / 7 encounters where there's possibly no reward

Riparian Woodland: 6 encounters / (23) possible SC (max) / 5 encounters where there's possibly no reward / out of those 1 remaining encounters you are  promised (4) SC (max)

Deciduous Forest: 6 encounters / (22) possible SC (max) / 6 encounters where there's possibly no reward 

Taiga: 6 encounters / (22) possible SC (max) / 6 encounters where there's possibly no reward

Tundra: 6 encounters / (22) possible SC (max) / 6  encounters where there's possibly no reward

Swamp: 6 encounters / (22) possible SC (max) / 4 encounters where there's possibly no reward / out of those 2 remaining encounters you are  promised (7) SC (max)

Rainforest: 6 encounters / (19) possible SC (max) / 3 encounters where there's possibly no reward / out of those 3 remaining encounters you are  promised (9) SC (max)

Mountains: 6 encounters / (18) possible SC (max) / 4 encounters where there's possibly no reward / out of those 2 remaining encounters you are  promised (4) SC (max)

Desert: 5 encounters / (22) possible SC (max) / 5 encounters where there's possibly no reward

Grasslands: 5 encounters / (19) possible SC (max) / 5 encounters where there's possibly no reward 

Glacier: 5 encounters / (18) possible SC (max) / 2 encounters where there's possibly no reward / out of those 3 remaining encounters you are  promised  (10) SC (max)


Best for Lunar Tears(??):

  • I had immense success in biomes nearer to the starter biomes - specifically Coniferous Forest  - which I in particular noted did better than Desert. But I'll have to do more testing and careful record it of next event.

I've noticed that one encounter in Prarrie give you an acorn every time! It's the Prarrie dog encounter, how common the encounter is tho would probably need to be researched!

I'm curious to see how this guide would change with all the new encounters. I've noticed biomes like the glacier which were previously reliable for amusement now are swamped by battle encounters.
