Summary
AStardew Valleyplayer attempted to give a bomb in their inventory to the Wizard as a gift, who had a hilarious response to it. The particular correlation between the Wizard’s respone and the gift given is amusing fans ofStardew Valley.
Stardew Valleyon Switch recently patched a glitchthat led to NPCs loving every gift that was handed to them. While this sounds like a beneficial glitch on paper, it was out of character and weird to have NPCs responding favorable to literal trash and similar junky items handed to them as a present. If that glitch hadn’t yet been fixed, this funny moment wouldn’t have happened.
Over on Reddit, user Legend365554 shared the moment that they gave a bomb to the Wizard as a gift and he responded in a hilarious way. When the game isn’t glitched, bombs aren’t considered to be a positive gift to anyone, with every singleStardew Valleyvillager classifying it as a disliked gift. Legend365554 apparently didn’t have much on them to offer, so they handed over a bomb to the Wizard, thinking it might be received well. However, the Wizard responded with his standard dislike response, suggesting that he might throw it into the fire just to see what happens.
Wizard Bomb Response is Explosively Hilarious
Stardew Valleyfans are having quite a fun time with this exchange. While some suggested that the Wizard would be fine, as he’s well-versed in arcane arts and is wise, others joked that an explosion was sure to follow. Some suggested that the player would get punished for it, perhaps waking up as a crow the day after. Players also pointed out that it’s a slightly frustrating detail that giving a bomb to an NPC will actually cost the player friendship points with them, even thoughKent sends bombs to farmersregularly after developing a strong enough friendship.
Thankfully, outside the 20 lost friendship points, there aren’t any genuinely negative outcomes from handing off a bomb to the Wizard or any other NPC. Some might consider it a good idea for developer ConcernedApe to amend this reaction so that the Wizard doesn’t say he’s going to set dangerous or explosive items on fire when received. However, judging from the overall reaction from the game’s community, most would probably see that as a loss, as it’s a funny moment to have. Players who don’t have valuable and specific items to give to the Wizard or other NPCs may want to consider stocking up onuniversally lovedStardew Valleygiftsso they’re on-hand when they come across NPCs randomly.
