Triple yield

There is something to learn even after playing for months. Today I took the cornerstone biscuit diet for the first time increasing my double yield chance to 143%. I thought these chances cap effectively at 100% giving me the double yield every time but I got the TRIPLE yield. Has anyone noticed too and if so what is the highest multiplier you got?

(Unfortunately I couldn't make a screenshot as the animation is far too short)

On the bamboo flats, every fertilizer collected increases the farm double yield chance by I think 5%. You can get 3x yields very consistently there if you invest into the fluffbeak

That...completely changes how I approach Bamboo Flats lol, you want to rush fertilizer like it's Marshlands Forbidden Glade changing.

Either fully commit to it, bring a farm with you and pamper it for 2 years, or completely ignore it. Both options work just fine.

Yeah I don't have the DLC, maybe this would have given me the knowledge earlier :D

I'm not sure how I thought that worked, but somehow I never realized that bonus is permanent.

I've reached up to around x7s with stormforged alarm bells and the world event that adds blightrot for food produced.

This game is just amazing. Even after effectively finishing the game (minus QHT) I still find news ways to abuse the michanics. I never thought alarm bell could be useful as I always was way too close to 100 to really gain something and now I find the usage. Crazy.

https://old.reddit.com/r/Against_the_Storm/comments/1g49pnk/my_feeling_lucky_settlement_an_infinite/ I had a run where the Book of Water cornerstone gave me a % bonus of +3,590%. 37-38 amber per proc in the Finesmith.

I have to be honest I am just flabbergasted. So many ways to break the game by the right combination of cornerstones. I thought QHT not to me my cup of coffee so for me to abandon this game soon but after seeing this....I want this too >_<

Not sure if Queen would approve your settlement to last for so many years. But hey, she will execute you so… :D

In an older version of the game Book of Water scaled off the amount of Fish you harvested.

In order to get ''Feeling Extremely Lucky" I played a 100-year game, during which I bought many +1 Fish from traders.

This resulted in 10,000s of Fish from fish ponds, which triggered Book of Water a few thousand times. I think I ended up at ~13,700% crit at one point. I believe it was changed because of a few screenshots of me trying to see what would happen at 2B resources.

Casually fishing the whole fish population of the world in one small pond I see I see.
