Pixie
Pixies are tiny beings made of mostly light that can help the player with a variety of tasks on their farm and around it. Pixies can be attracted by placing offerings in Pixie Shrines, put into a Pixie Bottle and then placed on different objects to harvest resources or improve machine yields or released with the Pixie Guardian in a Pixie Cavern. Pixies have different uses depending on their color.
Fin's early game quest Pixie in a Bottle and a poster in Dawn's Potion Shop provide a short in-game explanation on pixies and their types. The player will also receive a Small Pixie Bottle with one green and one blue pixies from Fin for completing his quest.
Colors and uses
Four types of pixies exist in the game: Blue, Green, Red, and Rainbow. Different colored pixies can be bound to different types of objects, except rainbow pixies that can be bound to any object and will complete any task with increased effectiveness. Green and Blue pixies can be bound to harvestable objects to collect their resources every day without destroying the objects they are bound to, and Red pixies can be bound to machines to increase their yields or to Silk Farms or Bee Hives to increase their production speed.
Every pixie placed on a natural object or a machine counts towards the player's boundable pixie limit. Once that limit is reached, no new pixies can be placed; the player can only free a spot by putting any of their bound pixies into a tapper or a bottle and releasing them. The player starts the game with the limit of nine; that limit can be increased by eating Pixie Friendship cards and wearing jewelry that has this bonus.
Green and blue pixies will deposit the resources they harvest into the Pixie Deposit Chest every night. The chest is located next to the Town Pixie Shrine between Cid's Store and Freya's. If the chest gets full, some harvested items may be discarded. The amount of resources collected can be increased by eating Pixie Synergy cards and wearing equipment that has this bonus.
Blue Pixies
Blue Pixies can be placed on any rocks, ore deposits, quartz and shard nodes, and strange stones to harvest their contents every day without breaking the rocks or nodes.
- Ore rocks and pure ore deposits yield their corresponding ore, with pure ore deposits producing slightly more ore than
- Coal rocks yield Coal.
- Quartz rocks yield Quartz.
- A shard node yields a random shard every day (Arcane, Ion, or Phantom); all shards harvested in the span of the same day by one pixie are of the same type.
- A round strange stone yields a random geode every day (Unordinary, Peculiar, Rare, or Extraordinary).
A Rainbow Pixie placed on any of these objects will harvest twice as much of the same resource.
