ElCabong Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I'm starting lots of different games to try out different starting strategies. I just spent the night harvesting stumps for honey. I didn't have any honey and I started with 43 wood. I quit when I had almost 500, all from stumps and I didn't get any honey. That's a lot of stumps, I should have got some. So as soon as I dinged, I put a point in lucky looter and looted two honey from random stuff at the first POI that Rekt sent me to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meganoth Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 (edited) Don't try to do statistics with so few samples. I looted maybe 8 stumps, more than a dozen trash piles and one POI on my first day and found 2 honey, without any point in Lucky Looter.

Those don't count for the harvesting quest though. They should, but they don't. Personally, I had to break close to 100 stumps before I got my 5 honey. Stumps on POIs apparently don't count either.

I only break stumps when i am infected, or if they are going to respawn with a poi quest maker. I get a honey every 3 stumps, but i am also infected almost all the time. Not sure if it is in the code, or if rnJeasus is on my side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riamus Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Honey is entirely random. IIRC, it's 20% chance. I've gotten multiple in a row and I've gone 20 stumps with none. That's just how RNG works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhaaltazar Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 (edited) I got honey from a first stump on Day 1 when I was looking for wood for starter quests. So I guess just a random luck. Edited June 26 by Bhaaltazar (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElCabong Posted June 26 Author Share Posted June 26 I tried this again just to check out in a new game and there's no help there with honey and stumps. I think one point lucky looter is still a good idea but later on after you're established. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confirmation and Recency bias. I am sure with a wider sample size and more experience in the version it will even out.
