The more high-level the gear you can make gets, the weirder the materials required to make it become in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Some of the top-level items will require things like shark fins and other oddities that make sense as to why they’d be so rare, but the empty cough drop tin sounds like something you would just grab out of a trash can on the street. But no matter how many dumpsters you dive in, you will never find one. You can waste a lot of time looking for this item before you even have the chance to get it, so save yourself the frustration and needless grinding by checking out how to actually get the empty cough drop tin.

If you see a weapon that requires an empty cough drop tin to be able to make it, you will need to wait until you get to at least Chapter 10 before you can reliably get it. During this chapter, you will be introduced to the Yokohama Underground Exchange. This is another randomized dungeon you can run through while collecting Geomijul’s Survey Disks that you can exchange for various items with Utamaru. The empty cough drop tin is one item for sale, and will cost you 2,000 of these disks. That is a decent amount, so depending on your level, it could take two runs through the dungeon to grind it out.

How to get a prismatic shard in Stardew Valley

There are tons of tips and tricks around for things like farming and which gifts to give each villager in Stardew Valley, but crafting weapons is just as important to learn. One of the best weapons in the game alongside Meowmere is the Galaxy Sword, which requires prismatic shards to obtain. That's just one of the uses for this rainbow mineral, but you will never get enough to unlock everything they provide without knowing where to look. This isn't like learning where to find the Bookseller, though, because there is some randomness to consider. Let's run through all the ways to find a prismatic shard in Stardew Valley.
How to get a prismatic shard

There are only two consistent ways to get prismatic shards in Stardew Valley. Otherwise, you will need to deal with some RNG. That said, there are two methods that have far better odds than anything else. The only guaranteed way to get one is to go to the chest at the very top of the Volcano Dungeon. The other is to make the Statue of True Perfection. This piece of furniture can only be made after you reach 100% Perfection and interact with the Perfection Tracker in Qi's Walnut room, which will take dozens of hours to accomplish. However, if you managed to grind that much then you will get a free prismatic shard every day you check your Statue of True Perfection.

How to get Nautilus Shells in Stardew Valley

It won't take you many seasons to learn most of Stardew Valley's tips and tricks and become familiar with how to get the more common materials you need. On the other hand, there are some more mysterious items that you will need from time to time but have no idea where to find. The Nautilus Shell isn't that great of a gift, but it is required for a few specific quests and for dyeing. If you've been searching the beach all summer long but haven't found one, you're close but not quite there yet. Here's how to get Nautilus Shells.
How to get Nautilus Shells
Nautilus Shells are most easily found on the beach by foraging through the sand, which is probably where most people would think to look for them. However, if you look during the summer, when you would most likely be at the beach, you won't find any. That's because the only time you can forage a Nautilus Shell from the beach is when it is winter.

Besides foraging in the cold sand, there are a few other ways you can get Nautilus Shells, but they are all up to chance. They can be received as a gift from Demetrius at any time or from any villager during the Feast of the Winter Star. If you have either the Shrine of Challenge or Danger In The Deep quest enabled, they can spawn within the first 29 levels of the Mines.

Being a good fighter isn't necessarily one of the top tips and tricks for Stardew Valley, but it does make the game more fun and allows you to get a lot of rare resources you can use for giving as gifts or crafting. The Mines are your standard dungeon, but there is a far more dangerous and lucrative area called the Skull Cavern. If you've found it, you will see that it is locked and requires a hidden key to open. Technically, you could cheat your way into opening the door, but we suggest taking a look below on how to get the key the intended way first.
