Farmer
Wrapping up year 3 on Frump Farm and the last big thing on my to-do list is completing the final monster slayer goals for the adventurer's guild. I only have two monster types left: Magma Sprites/Sparkers & Pepper Rex. I have the Desert and Island obelisks built and plenty of farm totems (thanks to a happy blobfish pond), so farmer Wednesday can easily pop over to skull caverns ot the valcano mines after all farm tasks are done for the day. This works great for the Magma Sprites, since they're usually easy to encounter. The Pepper Rex are a lot harder to find.
What I've been doing is selecting 'ladders appear more frequently' or 'bombs don't hurt you' whenever possible on the dwarf king statue, then taking a stack of spicy eel (courtesy of my lava eey pond) and a monster musk and heading to skull caverns for the afternoon/evening. This generally results in finding three to five lone Pepper Rex on random floors in the caverns.
I lucked out yesterday and hit an infested prehistoric floor that, thanks to monster musk, was loaded with Pepper Rex! I was slaying the second to the last one at 1:50 in-game and hoping I'd be able to take out the last one before farmer Wednesday passed out. Just then, the UPS that my tv & consoles are plugged into blares out an alarm that I've never heard and flashes an error code with "check manual" on its little lcd screen as it kills the power.
Got that fixed. Restarted the day in-game. Killed the five stray Pepper Rex on the way down, making better time when I reached the infested floor. Only this time, it's not a prehistoric floor. There's only one Pepper Rex among the slimes and serpents.
Still have twenty-two Pepper Rex to go...
