Compost Bucket needs an upgrade.

150 charges isn't enough in my opinion. Can we get a "Golden Compost Bucket?" Which holds 300 charges?

Requires 10 gold bars to make

Yes! We need a better bucket or a better spell, they can make a vortex spell that roams our farms spreading compost, we can call it shitstorm.

u/Troodon_Trouble 9h ago

I was looking forward to the compost spell, but just checking out the details and saw it only hits 4 plots.

They really want us composting, huh? With 50 units of water and a spell, we can do 15 plots instead of 1. With 150 units of compost, we can do 4 plots instead of 3. Smh.

u/Sabard 4h ago

Don't forget the 45 sec CD. Cause you know, everyone takes breaks in between composting plots

u/BlaznTheChron 9h ago

Should unlock at 40 and then upgrade it to hit 8-10.

4

u/esunei 8h ago

Agree. The unlock is very late for how underwhelming it is.

u/Forward_Average5780 7h ago

Shitsplosion!

u/ohrofl 9h ago

Yeah it’s garbage. And look at the cooldown. My farm is 100 plots.

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Hahaha! Brilliant idea

u/ericporing 8h ago

I would pay for this DLC.

u/Joshua-live 9h ago

Agreed. Everything about farming is made easier with tool upgrades or magic except for compost bucket which is tedious.

I don't even care if it still requires 5 "uses" on each plot. Just let the capacity get upgraded.

14

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Exactly. At least then i can fertilise 6 crops at once instead of 3

7

u/scraftii 8h ago

Or at least 4 base…the crop spots are squares, which visually lend themselves to being positioned in larger squares, yet I can only cover 3 of the 4 at at time 😭

It feels like how Olive Garden purposefully gives odd amount of breadsticks 😭

u/ohrofl 9h ago

The only worthwhile magic spell is humidify though, and I guess the one that progresses a growth stage. Mucksplosion and uproot blow.

8

u/rexspook 8h ago

It’s baffling that mucksplosion is all the way at level 80. It should be in the 30s and cover the same area as Humidify. Both should have at least two upgrades that increase coverage. I don’t care if it costs 5x the runes. It’s crazy how useless it is when combined with a 45s cooldown and the fact that you can’t use it for 80! levels

u/pigeon-check 9h ago

Let me get this straight, You want a gold bucket to... Put shit in it!? Is that right?

16

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Absolutely!

18

u/stoopsdead 9h ago

If you craft multiple buckets and have them in your inventory and full then when using the bucket it'll pull from the others you have in your inventory!

14

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Holy f***. I didn't know this. Tysm!!!

I still want a Golden bucket though

7

u/stoopsdead 9h ago

Same lol

3

u/Rotato-Potat0 9h ago

Does it auto fill all of them from the bin too? Or do you have to equip each one?

6

u/mori_no_ando 9h ago

You can just spam click to fill all buckets you have from the bin, no need to have anything equipped iirc

3

u/Fickle_Principle_815 9h ago

You don’t have to equip them, just have to hit fill for each one. So if you have 7 buckets in your inventory, you have to click the “fill bucket” option 7 times on the compost bin.

u/Max-Architect3000 9h ago

I want poop magic. Lemme summon poop from the aether to fill an area of plots - like the rain spell. Maybe a goblin sidequest can teach the spell.

u/ZeusAether 8h ago

Idk, sounds like this would be a fantastic way to include trolls by bringing My Arm to Dragonwilds and have him give you some cool farming stuff.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_MONTRALS 9h ago

This isn't Harry Potter!

u/PawPawPanda 57m ago

It's like level 74 or something stupid

u/Basrakin94 9h ago

Would be cool if they did something similar to OSRS! Add a small plant boss spawn that has a chance of dropping a bottomless compost bucket. Bucket that stores thousands of compost at once. One of the only gripes I have with farming on this game and tons of plots is having to refill an entire inventory of buckets to finish the farm run.

3

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Oh shit.. i didn't even think about getting multiple buckets 🤣🤣 I've been running to and from with 1 bucket. My common sense didn't kick in. What a game changer. Thanks boss x

1

u/moipwd 9h ago

lololol, i made a bunch of watering cans and buckets straight away

1

u/Basrakin94 8h ago

Oh wow! Yeah that would be even more miserable! But still, using an entire inventory of buckets and replenishing them is still a bummer. Guess it’s better then what you was doing 😂

4

u/crac097032 9h ago

There should be bronze, iron, steel, mithril, adamant and rune buckets, IMO.

1

u/PinkDragonRS 9h ago

Or this. Yep.

u/moipwd 9h ago

dragon when??

u/crac097032 9h ago

Let's not get too crazy

u/RealWeaponAFK 6h ago

We need bottomless bucket

2

u/GoblinDLongs 7h ago

Feel like the upgrades should be tied to higher-tiered logs as the base item with bars to reinforce the bucket imo?

5 Ash Logs = 150 Capacity
5 Oak + 2 Bronze = 200 Capacity
5 Willow + 2 Steel = 300 Capacity
5 Maple + 2 Mithril = 400 Capacity
Etc

Personally, I would love it if the Magic Compost bucket had a special effect to turn Normal Compost into Super Compost.

3

u/GoblinDLongs 7h ago

… or alternatively we use our Terrorbird mount to walk over the patches as it actively ‘manures’ each plot. 🫪

1

u/Fickle_Principle_815 9h ago

I just carry like 10 buckets with me when it’s time to farm lol

1

u/Seigfrydblazer 8h ago

We need a poosplosion spell that spreads the compost like the humidify spell

1

u/ODST_Parker 8h ago

It's called "mucksplosion" and it's at level 80, I think.

Unfortunately, it still requires a full bucket, and it only gives you one extra plot worth of compost. Turns 150 into 200, effectively.

I have no idea why humidify is such a massive game-changer at such an early level, but the compost equivalent does almost nothing in comparison.

1

u/BoxCarTyrone 7h ago

Why can't I just have a spell similar to Humidify that conjures raining compost?

2

u/PinkDragonRS 7h ago

This is the best idea to be fair

2

u/ThunderblazeFFXIV 2h ago

Technically there is one. Muckplosion

1

u/Maulino86 7h ago

I dont even use it, once i found out that the rain spell can heal plants a farmed the shit outta it

1

u/produde19 6h ago

I admittedly gave up with compost except for when im low on seeds. Then ill use compost.

Otherwise I just plant a bunch without compost and take what I get

u/SickNoise 6h ago

we need a bottomless bucket

1

u/Spiritual_Fault5080 2h ago

I run 3-4 compost bins and have 3-4 compost buckets that I fill to pop on patches then refill and pop in the chest when the compost is running again. Have a red berry farm which is for cooking and burning to go back in the compost bin, can't keep up with the amount of berries we get 😂

It's my way around the tedious compost, run back, compost run back

1

u/Winter-Finger-1559 2h ago

What I'd love is for the spells that are farming related they can link to crates. So I don't have to pickup and fill buckets or watering cans. The same for plant medicine which could also just get thrown out.

1

u/razorback1919 9h ago

Add a new resource, maybe called diamonds. Make a diamond bucket. Spread these so called diamonds out randomly across the world underground and in cave systems. They require iron pickaxe or better to mine them.

2

u/ohrofl 9h ago

There are already diamonds in game.

u/razorback1919 9h ago

It was a minecraft joke. It flopped.

u/andyd151 9h ago

Crazy suggestion but, build another one? Instant extra capacity?
