If you want to stay alive knowing what plants do what, and what they look like is very important for survival. Since you are in a race against time when you have a negative status, it is very wise to store these plants on your island beforehand.
Starvation
The starvation negative effect is a condition that occurs when calories are not taken in for a long period of time. Simply put,you need to eat to treat this negative status. Starvation will kill you completely intwo game days.
How to Avoid Starvation
There are many ways to satisfy your hunger in Stranded Deep. One of the simplest is tohunt a small crab, peel it with the Refined Knife, cook it and eat it. Alternatively, you can find common fruits from the island such as Coconut. You can collect Coconuts very easily by climbing palm trees.
you may hunt fish like Archer Fish, Sardines, and Discus Fish in shallow waters with Fishing Spear, and you can make this process more enjoyable and faster by making Fishing Rod. Additionally, if you want to automate this process you can use the fish traps.
Then, as you get your hands on more robust weapons, you’re able to hunt Boars, Cods, and Sharks and increase the number and speed of your cooking by building a Smoker or Hobo Stove.
Dehydration
Dehydration has the same negative status as Starvation andwill kill you if you don’t drink waterwithin two game days.
The easiest way to quench your thirst in Stranded Deep is to climb a coconut tree anddrink Coconut water. Later in the game,you may make a Water Still to get drinking waterfrom rainwater.
How to Avoid Dehydration
Coconut water is the easiest way to quench your thirst in Stranded Deep, but too much is harmful and not very useful. The best way to quench your thirst, in the long run, is to make a Water Still.
To craft it you need a Coconut Flask, a Palm Frond, a Lashing, a Cloth, and three Rocks. This way you can collect rainwater and drink it as you wish to quench your thirst.
However, if you drink Coconut water two times in a row or three times within ten game hours, you will experience diarrhea.
Bleeding
The Bleeding negative status effect iscaused by Great White Sharks or Tiger Sharks,and it reduces your health per second.Bleeding is not easy to stop, and if you are not prepared for it and do not know how to deal with it, the chances of death are very high.To treat this you will need a Bandage or Medical Gauze.
You can find Bandages in shipwrecks, orcraft them with one Lashing and one Cloth. Meanwhile, you can craft Medical Gauze withone Kura Fruit and one Quwawa Fruitand then use it to treat your bleeding. Therefore,farming in Stranded Deepisextremely important to constantly produce Medical Gauze.
Diarrhea
Diarrhea reduces your Thirst to zeroand lasts for one hour. This effectoccurs if you consume more than three Coconuts or Potatoes within ten game hours.
Unfortunately, there is no way out of this negative status except to wait.
Poisoning
Poisoning is extremely common in Stranded Deep.Lion Fish, Snakes, Starfish, and Sea Urchins can easily poison you. Like bleeding, farming pays off in a big way in the treatment of poisoning.
You can cure your poisoning by producing an Antidotewith one Coconut Flask and one Pipi.Poisoning depletes your Health, Hunger, and Thirstlevels, so it is best to get rid of it as soon as possible.
Information
Snakes
Snakes usually avoid you and do not attack you unless you get very close to them. But if they do attack, they will poison you. If you hear a rattle and can’t see anything, it means that there is a camouflaged snake somewhere nearby. Because of their skin color,these animals can be extremely difficult to spot in the grass. The same goes for sea snakes - they won’t attack you,but they will poison you if you go near them.
Lion Fish
Lion Fish are usuallyfound in shallow waters, and they are creatures towatch out for when collecting materials such as Clay,because you may be poisoned without realizing it.They won’t hunt you but they will poison you if they feel threatened.
Crown of Thorns Starfish
You can spot these sea stars in the water very easily because of their beautiful colors, and theymay have movedwhen you re-enter the game or sleep. These creatures do not reduce your health, they only poison you.
Sea Urchins
Sea Urchins are just like Starfish, but they don’t move and are extremely poisonous. Their black color makes themextremely difficult to spoton surfaces such as metal and rock.
Illness
Illness occurs when your character is exposed to too much cold. It reduces your Health, Hunger, and Thirst levels by .025 percent every second. Theonly way to cure this negative stat is to take Vitamins. Within five game minutes of taking the vitamin, your illness will go away.
Drowning
Drowningoccurs when you have been underwater for a long time, and run out of breath. To remedy this problem,you’re able to make a Breath Boost mixtureto increase your breathing time underwater oruse an Air Tank. Alternatively, you can just try and swim back up to the surface.
Vomiting
The Vomiting negative stat is extremely simple:when you eat raw food your character will start vomitingand lower your character’s Hunger and Thirst bar by 75 percent.
Theonly way to avoid this is to cook your food. Apart from that, it does not cause any illness or leave any lasting effects.
Broken Bones
you may experience Broken Bone negative status in two different ways: beingbitten by a shark, orfalling from a high place. The Broken Bones effect causes your Heath, Hunger, and Thirst levels to gradually decrease.
To cure this effect, all you need to do is craft a Splintand to craft it you needtwo Lashing and one Stick.
Sunstroke
Sunstroke is themost common negative status effectin Stranded Deep.This effect is caused by being in the sun for too long, and it lowers two bars of your Hunger and Thirst per game hour.
To treat or prevent this effect you canswim often, and work in the shade, butthe most effective way is to drink Aloe Vera or Aloe Salve.
Death
Death happens when your health is depleted, and this might occur without you even realizing it. You can die from negative statuses such as Illness, Poisoning, or Sunstroke, which can take away your Health and Hunger bar without you even knowing it.
Therefore, it isuseful to check your health status regularlyby checking your watch and take care not to reduce your health to zero.
