In Disney Dreamlight Valley, there is a wide selection of materials that vary in difficulty to obtain. Among them, stone is relatively easy to acquire as players only require the Royal Pickaxe to unlock and commence mining. However, if players find themselves in need of a large quantity of stone at once, they may be interested in a quick and effortless method to obtain it. Although there is no foolproof way to gather a substantial amount of stone rapidly, there are certain actions players can take to expedite the process.
Stone serves as a significant component in various recipes and is also essential for completing specific quests. By actively engaging in gameplay, fulfilling duties, and participating in Star Paths, Disney Dreamlight Valley players will naturally accumulate a considerable amount of stone. Nevertheless, if all the acquired stone is sold instead of stored, there may be a future need for more.
How to Mine Stone Fast
To acquire Stone, one must break rocks using the Royal Pickaxe. This method can be applied to rock spots that potentially contain gems, the light gray rocks found throughout the Valley, and the giant rocks. However, it is important to note that Sea Debris (the blue rocks on Dazzle Beach) and Ice (in the Frosted Heights) should not be mined for Stone, as they will provide Sand and Snowballs respectively.
Once all the light gray rocks in the valley have been mined, it is recommended to choose one or two biomes and systematically mine Stone from all the rock spots within those biomes. This approach will not only yield Stone but also result in the collection of Gems for the player.
Best Biome to Mine For Stone and Other Tips and Tricks
When deciding on which biome to mine in, it is important to consider the player's needs. If the sole objective is to obtain Stone, it is recommended to mine in either the Plaza, the Peaceful Meadow, or Dazzle Beach. These biomes have Rock Spots that only yield Stone, Coal, or Gems, while other biomes have a possibility of dropping Iron Ore, Gold Nuggets, or Crystals. However, if there is a specific Gem or Ore that players are aiming for while gathering Stone, it is advisable to select the biomes that offer that particular material.
Additionally, it is crucial for players to bring along a companion with the Mining role, preferably one that has reached level 10 Friendship. Each time the player mines a rock spot, their companion will have an opportunity to provide them with more Stone, Coal, or Gems. The higher the companion's Friendship level, the greater the quantity of materials they will discover.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is in early access now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
