It takes careful planning and understanding the role of each character to be able to finish the
assigned quests successfully. Stardew is a vast game and every quest is unique. To avoid players
confusion here is a step by step manual that will guide them through the story quest called
‘Exotic spirits’.

To summarise the quest, a character named Gus is in need of some coconut. And your
challenge is to provide him with some. It may sound relatively simple and straightforward but
as you progress more into the mission, you will see that this is not the way it is. The quest is
rather tricky and a proper step-based process is a must follow to get the mission done
successfully. How can you do that? By following the procedure explained below:

Walkthrough
This quest triggers off when you are on the 19 th winter during your second year into the game.
You will find this quest through a mail that will be sent by Gus into your mailbox. Upon reading
the mail, you will find that Gus requires you to provide him with some fierce coconut. How to
find or prepare a coconut?


  • The most common method to acquire a coconut is to hunt for one in the calico desert.
    To get access to the jungle, you will need to repair the bus that is broken since the start
    of the game.

    You can repair the bus via the community centre bundles. Another way to do this is via
    JojaMart, only if you have decided to purchase the JojaMart membership.

    Remember this is a very costly quest and you may have to spend over 40,000 gold.
    Before you complete this quest, you will be required to create a lot of set up.

    When the bus is fully repaired, ride it to the calico desert. The desert has coconuts in
    abundance. These coconuts are quite commonly found forage items in that are all
    appearing at random.

Once you have got a coconut, bring it to Gus. He can be met in stardust saloon. In this saloon,
Gus spends a lot of his days. As I have mentioned before, this is quite an expensive quest.
Though not without a reward, what Gus pays you back is only 600 gold which is paid via a
journal.

This quest involves a little bit more complication than the normal ones. The worrying part is the
heavy expense of over forty thousand gold that you are most likely to do. Coconut is not getting
into your hands straight away. It requires an indirect way that means a systematic, step by step
procedure is needed to be followed.
