Though Tigerseye isn’t the most uncommon ofall minerals in the game, it will still take a bit of time and gathering before you discover one. In this guide, we will show you the best way to pick up some Tigerseye and what you can use the mineral for.
How to Get Tigerseye in Stardew Valley
There are only two ways that you can get Tigerseye: by breaking open either aMagma Geode or an Omni Geode.These specific Geodes can be found in a few different locations, which we will go over here:
How to Obtain (Mining)
Omni Geode
The Mines, Skull Cavern, The Quarry, Volcano Dungeon, Panning, Krobus' Shop, Oasis, Dropped by Carbon Ghost
All mining floors
Break open rocks in the area, or Omni Geode Nodes.
Magma Geode
The Mines, Skull Cavern, The Quarry, Volcano Dungeon, Fishing Chests, Lava Eel Fish Pond
Floors 81-119 in the Mines
Break open rocks in the area, or Magma Geode Nodes.
While Tigerseye has the ability to appear in both Omni Geodes and Magma Geodes, you’ll have a much higher chance of getting one out of aMagma Geode.The easiest area to pick up Magma Geodes is alongFloors 81-119 in the Mines,where you’ll be able to pick upmore than 20 at once.
You can also find Magma Geodes in any of the other mining locations, but the Mines will have the least powerful enemies, with an abundant amount of Magma Geodes. We highly recommendcreating Cherry Bombs,Bombs, and Mega Bombsto make your searching process easier, as they will blow up multiple rocks and allow you to pick up a few Magma Geodes at once.
If you’re doing a bit of fishing as well,Magma Geodes often pop up in Fishing Chests.
