Just buying new, better weapons will get you through most of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, but if you want to cut down on grinding or take on the endgame challenges, there’s no getting around the need to upgrade and craft better gear. All those materials you’ve been scooping up off the ground and collecting from fights will get you most of the way there, but the top-tier weapons in the game will need a little bit more. Things like Squid Tentacles, for whatever reason, are one of the more rare ingredients that are somehow necessary to make these powerful weapons. There are only a few ways you can snag these slippery limbs, so rather than ruin your vacation in Hawaii by stressing, we’ll show you how to get Squid Tentacles as painlessly as possible.

There are two ways to get Squid Tentacles in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, but only one doesn’t rely on luck. If you want a surefire way to get some, it’s time to do some charity work and clean up the beaches by collecting as much trash as possible. If you take this refuse to the recycling center on the beach, the kind woman will exchange the garbage for points you can spend on various items. She just so happens to have a pair of Squid Tentacles for sale, but only the two. Each one will also cost a whopping 1,000 points, meaning you will need to pick up quite a bit of trash to afford them.

If you want to get your hands dirty in a different way, your other option is to try your luck running the labyrinth. There’s a chance Squid Tentacles will drop here, but it’s totally random, so it may not be worth your time unless you already bought the two above and still need more.

How to get fire quartz in Stardew Valley

There are tons of common items and materials in Stardew Valley that don't require you to look up any tips or tricks to find. Things like regular quartz are almost impossible to miss, while things like Powdermelon and fire quartz aren't quite as easy to come by. The rarer the material, the more uses it has, which is the case for this red version of quartz called fire quartz. Despite how pretty they look, you probably won't want to give them away as gifts once you learn how to reliably find them.
How to find fire quartz

Like any mineral in Stardew Valley, fire quartz needs to be foraged out in the world rather than made yourself. The Mines are where you will need to spend your time searching, but only after you have explored far enough to reach floor 80 and beyond. After floor 80, fire quartz will start to appear for you to forage. Beyond finding it on its own, you can also find some inside of either Magam or Omni Geodes. Because it is fairly common to spot on its own, you shouldn't need to rely on looking for geodes to get enough.

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.
