Tutorial:Bingo Guide

This guide covers general tips for Bingos and obtaining Bingo Cards. There are currently no guides for specific Bingo events though these may be added in the future. This guide is made with completing Bingo Cards in mind. As such, partial completion strategies will not be discussed though they usually aren't worth doing.

General Gameplan
Before a Bingo event starts, it is best to write down all the Bingo goals on a piece of paper in distinct categories. Examples of categories are: Farming, Mining, Combat, Minions, Free Goals (Goals that the player is likely to get without going for it), Miscellaneous, Community Goals. This can help organize Goals and give a better idea of which Goals may be done together.

After these are written down, break down any potentially difficult goal into different parts. For example: Obtain 9 unique pets: (Easy: 1) Grandma Wolf 2) Bingo 3) Rock 4) Bee. Easy with Chicken Minion: 5) Jerry 6) Rabbit 7) Pig. Potential Ones with other Minions: 8) Silverfish 9) Chicken (requires more collecting from Chicken Minions). Free Progress: Oringo Pets. Other Viable Options: Dolphin, Magma Cube). Doing so enables understanding how difficult a goal is, if any events may contribute towards the goal, and if there's anything the player should start working towards early on with minions.

After all of this is done, it should be easy to understand what the main difficult objectives of a Bingo are, which Minions and how many the player should try to go for, and how certain goals pair together.

When the Bingo starts, the player should prioritize any long term goals that might show up such as getting Minions set up, daily Dwarven Mines Commissions, and the Fetchur money method.

As the Bingo progresses, an effort should be made to collect from Minions regularly and aim to end the Bingo event at least a day before the end in case something unforeseen occurs. During the Bingo, it is worth interacting with the community as some goals can be done easier with the help of someone else and other community members might have found quicker methods to do certain goals.

The player should use Alixer almost whenever possible for the potion effects. If a player does not have access to strong enough Alixer potions and a goal almost requires potion effects, there are always community splash servers. Century Cakes should also be regularly consumed. If at any point a rare item is obtained such as a Cake Soul, it is possible to transfer it to another profile in the /bingo menu.

Common Player Progression
This following section covers things that a player is likely to go for but these are not always necessary depending on what the goals are.
 * -|Mobility=Players that are at least start with a Grappling Hook. It usually isn't worth for players without one to go for it due to the requirement of  but there are other options that can be of interest even for players with Grappling Hooks. The easiest one to get is the Rogue Sword from Jamie. After this, it is possible to get the Hunter Knife from finishing the Woods Race in under a minute, easily done with Alixer. It is worth noting that the Hunter Knife has decent stats as a starter sword. When paired with Century Cakes and Alixer, it is easy to reach over 200 speed. Though speed isn't as useful to get across the map due to the access Bingo players get to Fast Travel, it can still be used to reduce wasted time.

The Mithril Coat and Glacite Armor can be useful to increase speed, but it isn't worth going for them unless they are related to a goal.

Also, Ender Pearls can be useful on climbing, which are necessary for grinding goals in Dungeons. A player can get a few from Enderman spawning on Private Island, however, they should reach as soon as possible in order to access The End island for sufficient amount of pearls. They can then craft an Enderman Minion to produce more pearls when they are going for other goals.


 * -|Coins= are almost always a necessity due to the common need for a Raider Axe and when in excess, can be used to speed up certain goals. Players should remember to sell resources from objectives they don't need such as Mithril to NPCs. The easiest money method is visiting Fetchur every day and completing that quest for, totaling over a Bingo event. Additionally, some Relics can be collected safely by new players for  each.


 * -|Mining=The Lazy Miner quest should always be done as it is the quickest way for the player to obtain a decent pickaxe.

Accessing the Dwarven Mines should always be one of a player's first priorities since many quests require it and earlier access to Fetchur helps with. In order to reach the requirement of, the best way to earn Skill XP is to mine Sand with an enchanted Golden Shovel in the Mushroom Desert. Along with completing Commissions and Dwarven Mines Events, this remains one of the best method for grinding XP later on and is also a good source of. The second requirement is giving 10 enchanted ores to Rhys 3 different times. Though this quest intends for the player to give 3 different types of ore, it is possible to give the same ore 3 times by changing lobbies after every time the player delivers 10 enchanted ores. This works best with Lapis Lazuli due to it being the easiest to obtain. It is best to use a Diamond Pickaxe and enchant it when possible as it keeps its use even in the Dwarven Mines as most often than not, the only pickaxe the player can afford there is the Fractured Mithril Pickaxe, which has a lower. While in the Deep Caverns, it can be practical to obtain a few pieces of Lapis Armor as this greatly speeds up enchanting. The player should enchant items when possible to not waste any Experience.

Once in the Dwarven Mines, the player should remember to complete the Fetchur quest and obtain a Fractured Mithril Pickaxe from Bubu in order to mine Titanium when needed. Depending on the goals, it can be useful to always do the 4 daily Commissions and not do any until the daily bonus is available. Generally, players should aim to mine the outer Mithril for Mithril Commissions as it is the quickest and lobby swap to find Titanium for Titanium Commissions. For Ice Walker quests, it is important to remember that Pickaxes 1-hit them and that it is possible to Pickaxe-Swap with an Artisanal Shortbow to apply that damage bonus from a distance. There is also a common camping spot accessible with the Grappling Hook but it is less efficient than using the Artisanal Shortbow. The Glacite Armor they drop is great for mining and combat but is often not worth going for unless there is a specific quest related to Ice Walkers due to the low drop rate. If there is a need for Mithril Powder, the daily Puzzler quest should be done along with Fetchur
 * -|Farming=There is unfortunately not much the player can do to complete farming goals faster. The only Hoes the player can make use of are the Vanilla ones and the Rookie Hoe. The Rookie Hoe can be useful for additional coins but the inventory fills up quicker. It is important to use to maximize drops for any farming goals.

Jacob's Farming Contests can be useful to obtain books along with other items to help speed up some tasks so it is worth noting when some of them show up. The easiest one to do is Wheat, where one can reasonably obtain Silver in the contests by farming the wheat in the hub. The quickest way to farm wheat is to right-click random hub on the Hub Selector to swap to a small lobby that is unlikely to have any missing wheat once the player is done farming wheat in the previous hub. This is also the fastest way to level up.

Acquiring Enchanted Eggs is necessary for certain pet goals and the best way to do so is to obtain a Chicken Minion, spawn Chickens on the private island outside of the Minion's killing reach and wait for eggs to spawn. Chickens lay Eggs every 5-10 minutes. Once the player has acquired 5 eggs, it is possible to craft a Chicken Head and wear it for a while until enough Eggs are obtained to craft an Enchanted Egg. If there is a need for more than one, the Enchanted Egg can be placed in a Chicken Minion to generate some quickly.

In rare instances where there is a particularly difficult Farming Goal, it can be worth building a farm on the Private Island. To do this more efficiently, it is worth acquiring a Magical Water Bucket, Prismapumps, an InfiniDirt™ Wand, and a Basket of Seeds from Anita.
 * -|Combat=Combat goals should usually be among the last as this is when the player can do them most efficiently. Some goals may lead to other options being viable but these are the main ones.

Weapons:
 * Hunter Knife for early game and mobility, useful to keep later for mobility.
 * Raider Axe as the main weapon. The player should remember to get a Magical Water Bucket during the Season of Jerry to do the Joyful Viking quest but it is possible for another player to open the shop to acquire it. It costs so it is one of the biggest investments but is certainly worth it.
 * Super Cleaver works as a far weaker alternative to the Raider Axe and can be situationally more practical with its ability. The main advantage is that it can be acquired without the Magical Water Bucket and only costs . Still, this is not recommended if it is possible to acquire a Raider Axe and can only see use if the Combat goals are particularly easy.
 * Artisanal Shortbow can be paired with a pickaxe to kill Ice Walkers from afar with Pickaxe swapping as previously mentioned. It can also be useful for utility but shouldn't be used as a main weapon.

Armor:
 * Lapis Armor is passable against weaker enemies but should primarily be used for its ability.
 * Mercenary/Squire Armor works with enough.
 * Mithril Coat can be worth getting if the player obtained enough Mithril for some goal.
 * Glacite Armor takes a long time to acquire but has no issues.
 * Mushroom Armor is the best set to finish the Bingo with a low time. Though it restricts combat goals to nighttime, this can be worked around by leaving other goals to complete during the day. When paired with good Enchantments and Reforges, it can offer tremendous defensive and offensive value.

Pets: The Bingo Pet and Grandma Wolf Pet are usually the best options since these are the ones that can be at the highest level due to being obtained early on. Other pets are usually not worth considering. Among those two, the Bingo Pet is more useful to level up due to its Bingo related abilities.

For leveling, killing Ice Walkers is usually most efficient.

Some combat goals such as Slayer quests and Dungeon goals can be done with the help of others. Finding someone to help greatly reduces the difficulty of some of these but isn't necessary.


 * -|Foraging=Foraging Goals are uncommon but there are a few things that are worth noting. Golden Axes are of great use to the player and if necessary, it can be worth grinding for a Jungle Axe. Acquiring Oak Wood can be useful to get more Minion Chests. Other than that, this is pretty straightforward.


 * -|Minions=These should always be set up early on. If unsure that all minion goals can be done in time, the player should prioritize minions for quests that are hard to replace manually.

Though the player is handed 5 Medium Storage Chests, it can be worth getting more through either an Oak Minion or manually acquiring it. Compactors can also be useful and can be obtained with Cobblestone Minions or from usual mining. A free compactor can be obtained for completing the Lapis Miner's quest.

It is important to understand how often Minion inventories fill up to check on them before they do so and maximize their efficiency.

Try to unlock minion slots as fast as possible. With 9 or more slots, the progression will be a lot easier.

A strategy is to use Enchanted Charcoal to fuel the minions for goals. A player can obtain one or two Oak Minions along with two Coal Minions for producing Enchanted Charcoal. 45-50 pieces should be enough for the entire event. When there is enough Enchanted Charcoal, replace Coal Minions with the minions for goals. The Oak Minions can still be useful on crafting more Medium Minion Chests and accumulating total wood collections for the of a Raider Axe. When fueling the minions, put only one or two pieces rather than a large amount at once.


 * -|Community Goals=It usually isn't recommended to go for these as they do not contribute towards acquiring a Bingo Card (Item) and don't reward players that much. However, it can be worth doing a single contribution to gain access to the contribution reward without much effort.

Final Notes
It can't be emphasized enough how much time can be gained from interacting with the community not just from direct help from players but from learning about different unconventional solutions to goals.
