The best Disney Dreamlight Valley tips & tricks

We've all been waiting for Disney Dreamlight Valley, but we never imagined that the game would be so addictive! The very extensive game offers everything that our collector's heart longs for. That's why we're giving you all the important Disney Dreamlight Valley tips .

collecting raw materials

Do you have to complete a quest that requires you to collect a lot of things? Then grab the right Disney character for it. You can give each resident a unique ability , e.g. fishing, collecting, gardening, etc. If you ask the character if he or she wants to spend time with you, they will run after you. While you are fishing, for example, you have the chance to get a second fish with your friend at your side.

increase friendship level

The closer you are to Mickey and Co., the more quests are unlocked and - depending on the division of tasks - we receive more resources . The maximum friendship level is level 10 and there are several ways to increase the friendship level.

Have daily conversation

Every day we can initiate a dialogue with the corresponding NPC once .

favorite gifts

The advantage of Disney Dreamlight Valley is that you can always see on the right-hand side of the screen which gifts the resident is particularly happy about . In total, you can give an NPC three different items as a gift . The selection changes every day.

Spending time together

You can ask any character if they want to spend time with you. As you complete tasks, such as fishing, your companion will gain friendship points . Although this option takes the longest to reach a new friendship level, there is no limit per day .

This option is not available for the following figures: Elsa, Ariel and Ursula!

Collect a lot, but don't sell everything

The best thing to do is to get a few boxes and keep collecting everything you come across, whether it's plants or Dreamlight. You'll need a lot of resources in later quests and it's always annoying to have to laboriously farm them.

You can sell fish, vegetables, fruit, and dishes because they are easier to obtain and do not have a long spawn time.

Get lots of Dreamlight quickly

The good thing about Disney Dreamlight Valley is that new tasks are constantly appearing to earn Dreamlight. You can find these under the Dreamlight tab . When you have completed a task, collect the reward immediately so that you can receive a new task straight away .

Earn coins quickly

Here, too, there are several ways to earn coins quickly.

Fishing and selling fish

For this fishing trip, it is best to take a resident with you who has a particularly high level of fishing . When you fish, you will not only get one fish, but with a bit of luck even a second one . It is also advisable to look out for blue or yellow bubbles in the waters, as this is where the more valuable fish are hiding.

Once you have repaired and upgraded Vaiana's boat , you will also receive fish at regular intervals that you can sell.

mining and selling gemstones

Here too, you should get someone to help you who already has a high mining level . The black quarries can be worked even if no gems are visible . With a bit of luck, gems will drop here too.

Planting and selling pumpkins

Pumpkin seeds aren't the cheapest and take the longest to grow (2 hours on average), but they're definitely worth it. Make sure you bring an NPC who specializes in gardening with you, so you'll get even more pumpkins!

improve tools

Little by little you will receive various tools (shovel, watering can, pickaxe and fishing rod), which you can upgrade - except for the fishing rod. To do this, however, you have to complete various missions.

Improve shovel

To improve the shovel you need the quest "An Icy Invitation" from Anna . Here you get the improved shovel blade and have to upgrade it using various materials (10 soft wood, 4 hard wood, 4 iron ingots, 3 crafting parts) .

With an improved shovel you can remove tree stumps.

Improve watering can

Once you have reached friendship level 10 with Merlin , the quest "The Final Test" will be unlocked. If you complete this quest, you will receive the improved watering can.

You need these to remove large mushrooms .

Improve Pickaxe

Two upgrades can be unlocked for the pickaxe! You get the first upgrade from Elsa during the quest "Destroy the Ice" and can then mine the small ice blocks and blue-green stones on the beach . You will receive the second pickaxe upgrade from Maui in the quest “A Tale of Stone and Fire” . With the upgrade you can now mine the large ice blocks and blue-green stones .

Finding Dream Shards

The most important thing right away: never sell the dream and night shards , as both are rather rare and are needed for some quests!

night thorns

Dream Shards can also be found in the Nightthorns .
