How to get a sprinkler in Fields of Mistria
One of the worst things about any cozy farming sim, including Fields of Mistria, is the staggering time-sink of running a farm, especially in the early days before you get any helpful items such as sprinklers and similar tools. It’s easy to spend hours of every in-game day watering your crops, especially if you’re a little overambitious and have placed fields full of crops to rake in the Tesserae. Thankfully, the second major update added a new Sprinkler-type mechanic, although it is slightly more complicated than you may be used to. If you’re looking for a Sprinkler in Fields of Mistria, you’ll need to find the “Water Sprite Statue.” Here’s how to get it and how to use it.

You need access to the Dragon’s Breath spell, which you’ll only get once you’ve unlocked the three following Seals: Water Seal (Level 20) Earth Seal (Level 40) Fire Seal (Level 60) After you’ve broken through the Fire Seal, Caldarus will transform into his human form and bestow the Dragon’s Breath spell for you to use.

The Water Sprite Statue (and the Animal Sprite Statue, essentially an auto-petter) draw power from the Essence Stones placed into them, so you’ll need to stock up on them. You may get lucky and find some Essence Stones in the Mines, but this happens rarely. Instead, you’ll want to reach Town Rank 55 and restore the Stone Refinery within the Mines. The machine inside will allow you to make your own Essence Stones using Stone and Essence in varying quantities.

You can also eat them to gain some Essence, but you’ll only get back what you put in, so that point is only useful for Essence Stones that you find in the Mines.

You’ll also notice that the Essence Stone gets smaller as the days pass, and the energy within is used up. The post How to get a sprinkler in Fields of Mistria appeared first on Destructoid.
