Summary

  • Stow entire wardrobe in a dresser to save space, staying prepared for different scenarios.
  • Players can access items in the dresser when set down, but beware NPCs destroying it.
  • Some place dresser in Junimo Chest for shared storage, but this requires specific game progress.

A Stardew Valley player has shared a brilliant way to keep one's entire wardrobe on-hand. This idea could prevent Stardew Valley players from missing out on equipment bonuses and showing up for cutscenes in a less-than-ideal outfit.

Stardew Valley has a surprising number of outfit pieces for players to put together, with some requiring complex steps to acquire the ingredients and craft the clothing. The game also features a number of accessories and gear that can help to boost a Stardew Valley player's stats, making it easier for them to find useful items in the mines, survive onslaughts of enemy attacks, or simply cast illumination around them so they don't get lost after nightfall.

With Stardew Valley's limited inventory system, carrying many pieces of clothing and accessories, whether to quickly change one's appearance or to improve situational stats, simply isn't very practical. Enter longtailedmouse, who shared their idea on how players can work around this. They explained that rather than carrying individual items, they instead stowed everything that they needed in one of the game's dressers, and then put that into their inventory. The dresser only takes up one slot no matter how much is stored in it, and if it's set down, players can access it just like they can at home, pulling out or storing anything the dresser can ordinarily hold.

Stardew Valley Players Are Impressed By Storage Idea

Numerous gamers have shared how impressed they are with this idea, and several are planning on using it themselves. Even with all of Stardew Valley's backpack upgrades, managing storage space can be difficult, so anything that helps with that aspect will likely be smiled upon by the community at large. However, there is a caveat. Players pointed out that gamers who use this technique should be careful, as NPCs that collide with solid objects while walking around generally destroy them. If the dresser were destroyed, everything within it would be lost, so players should exercise caution when using it and not leave it out of their sight in the game's world.

Another player built upon this idea even further, explaining that they also use the dresser for this purpose, but stow the dresser away in a Junimo Chest when not in use. Junimo Chests have a shared storage system, allowing farmers to place one, fill it, and then access it from almost anywhere by placing a second Junimo Chest at the player's location. However, acquiring Junimo Chests requires Qi Gems, so this particular solution may be better for players that have already progressed further into the game.
