Mad Island: Comprehensive Walkthrough Guide

First Days

The first few days in Mad Island are crucial for setting a strong foundation for survival and progression. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what to do during these critical early days:

Day One

1. Resource Gathering: Spend the entire day collecting Berrys and Fibers.
2. Tool Crafting: Make an axe and a pickaxe.
3. Material Collection: Gather at least 50 stones and 50 iron. Look for rocks labeled as rock with a different metal shards texture.
4. Wood Gathering: Collect as much wood as possible until the morning of Day 2.

Avoid Villages: Villages are too dangerous to enter during the first day.

Return to Base: Once you have enough wood and other materials, open your map and click the blue flag to teleport back to your base.

Setting Up Base:

1. Crafting Table: Make a crafting table from the crafting menu in the lower left, set it down, make a furnace, set it nearby, and fill the table with everything but the iron.
2. Furnace: Place iron in the furnace and craft it into 5 ingots or more.
3. Iron Bench: Craft an Iron Bench and place it nearby. Fill it with resources and the fifth iron ingot to make a pan, crucial for future crafts.

Day Two

1. Level Up: Open your status window and upgrade a stat based on your preferred play style.

   • Dodger: Focus on speed and attack first, then health.
   • Tank: Prioritize health, then attack, and possibly speed depending on the shield.

2. Weapon Choice:

   • Fast Weapons: Bow, Katana, Iron Sword, Spear.
   • Tank Weapons: Any weapon with good parry potential.

3. Minion Strategy: Use minions to fight for you. Increase your follow cap to manage more followers, including natives and fighting animals like bears or werewolves.

Day Three to Five

1. Base Upgrades: Upgrade and define your early base with walls, spike traps, and resources.
2. Hunting: Prioritize hunting for food and materials.
3. Food and Water: Focus on gathering food and crafting a water bag for hydration.
4. Skill Points: Level up your characters and focus on skills like Healing, Harvest, Carry, and Smash.

Character Levels: Yona and Man share skill levels but have separate health, attack, and speed levels. Aim for a combined level of 7 to buy your first skill, preferably Healing.

The first few days on Mad Island are all about resource gathering, base setup, and strategic leveling. Avoid dangerous areas, focus on essential tools and materials, and gradually build a strong foundation for your survival and progression.

Materials, Crafting, and Crafting Locations

Crafting Basics Crafting in Mad Island can be complex if you're not familiar with the various crafting tables and inventory management. Keep these key points in mind:

1. Set Craftables: Each crafting table has a set list of items it can craft, which changes only with certain quest items.
2. NPC Crafting Tables: Some crafts require interacting with NPC crafting tables and hitting the craft button.
3. Inventory Management: All crafting tables need to have the necessary resources in their inventory or in a shared chest like Cloud storage or a Spider chest.

Material Sources

1. Hand and Free Tool Materials These materials can be collected without any special tools, just your bare hands or any tool in hand without consuming its durability. Examples include:

• Bushes
• Small cacti
• Berry bushes
• Tree bushes
• Barrels
• Boxes
• Sticks
• Rocks
• Mushrooms
• Shells

2. Axe Materials To collect these materials, you need an axe. Equip the axe and interact with the object or use it on a corpse menu item. Examples include:

• Trees
• Mushroom trees
• Tall cactus
• Thin trees
• Hard wood (requires iron or diamond axe)

3. Pick Materials These materials require a pickaxe. Examples include:

• Stone
• Iron stone
• Gold stone
• Blood stone
• Scrap
• Chaos Ore (requires iron or diamond pickaxe)

4. Shovel Materials Shovels are used to collect materials like dirt, sand, and clay. Use the right-click to dig instead of blocking. Examples include:

• Dirt (from mud, dirt, grass, and roads)
• Sand (from deserts and beaches)
• Clay (from wet mud often found outside villages)

5. Enemy Loot Defeated enemies drop loot that can be collected from their inventory or equipment. Each enemy has a random chance to drop a variety of items. Some items are usable only by certain NPCs, while others can be used by both NPCs and players.

Understanding the sources and methods of collecting materials is crucial for efficient crafting and survival in Mad Island. Focus on gathering the right materials with the appropriate tools to ensure a steady supply of resources for crafting and building.

Bosses, Bases, and Beats

Once you reach Day 5 in Mad Island, the focus shifts to building a base, fighting bosses, and progressing through the story. This chapter covers quests, so if you want to avoid spoilers, skip to the next chapter, "NPCs, Combat, Controls, and Care". Quests are listed in Collection order, which can affect their difficulty based on whether you complete them sequentially or not, as some are time-sensitive. If a quest or collection item is not part of the main storyline, it will be categorized in the Yona Quest, Man Quest, or Worldly Possessions sections.

There are three types of Quests:

1. Both MCs (Green Fog)
2. Yona Quests (Red Fog, only accessible by the Female MC)
3. Man Quests (Blue Fog, only accessible by the Male MC)

The entire main storyline can be completed as Yona, but not as Man.

• Location: Yona must head up the small hill near the village south of the swamp. A red fog wall blocks the way. You will encounter Keigo and Reika in an intimate moment. Whether you observe or scream affects Keigo's feelings for Reika, impacting the Man quest line for Reika.

• Proceeding: After following the mountain wall through the swamp, you will reach a break in the mountain with a red fog wall. Takumi, Keigo, and Reika are found with three natives that Keigo kills. You will encounter them shortly after. Takumi will use a taser on Keigo and then on Reika. You can either observe and let Reika have an intimate scene with Takumi or intervene and fight Takumi.

  • Tazer: Deals 45 faint damage. If all faint is lost, it results in immediate death.
  • Strike: Deals 9 faint damage. Avoid by running through him and attacking from behind.

• Second Encounter: Heading north, you will find Takumi again behind a red fog wall. You will fight him in a different outfit but with the same attacks. Your choices affect:

  • Obeying: Yona bows, gets drugged, resulting in a killed state and an intimate scene.
  • Killing Takumi: He will no longer be available to interact with, and you will miss the Tranciever but can still access the prison.
  • Tying Up: Takumi will need 10 food items in his inventory to continue the story.

Eighth Quest: The Transceiver

• Objective: Obtain the Transceiver by keeping Takumi alive after tying him up.

• Process:

  • Keeping Takumi alive after tying him up will provide you with the Transceiver.
  • A bar in the upper right will show Takumi’s hunger level. You need to either feed him or let him starve. When filled, Yona can interact with the final quest location and open the prison.
  • If Takumi dies, you will see a red X instead of the Transceiver, but the prison will still open when interacting with the final quest location.

Ninth Quest: The Trainer’s Recipe

• Objective: Obtain the Trainer’s Recipe by defeating Sally.

• Location: Enter the prison from the cave on the south side or the north side. The second room on either side has a hidden northeast hole where you can encounter Sally.

  • Lash Twirl: Slashes side to side, can stun-lock you. Move diagonally away and attack when she finishes.

• Outcome:

  • If Takumi is Alive: He will ask you to punish Sally. You can:
    • Kill Sally: Ends the quest.
    • Agree to Punish: Leads to a three-way forced fun scene with Sally, Takumi, and the Male MC. This skips the dialogue follow-up of denying Takumi.
    • Deny Takumi: Allows an intimate moment with Sally, with three dialogue options affecting your relationship with her.
  • If Takumi is Dead: Sally will be alone. You will have a discussion with her and then fight her.

• Post-Quest Options:

  • Leave: Sally will not allow intimate moments.
  • Partake: See the intimate scene and gain 2 dialogue options.
  • Submit to Sally: No intimate moments allowed, and the quest ends.
  • Make Sally Submit: Get new options if Takumi is alive or intimate moments if not. If Takumi is alive, you can punish and tie Sally up for forced fun. If not, intimate moments are allowed.

Tenth Quest: The Non-Existent Item

• Objective: This quest is not yet implemented. You will enter the Chaos Wastes and find a green fog ring with a long dialogue about making a bridge.

NPC Combat, Controls, and Care

This chapter covers handling NPCs, including both hostile and friendly ones. It will be divided into NPC types, interactions, and equipment.

Combat

Combat with NPCs involves understanding their stats, which include:

• Level: Determines the NPC's strength and difficulty.
• Damage Type and Amount: Impacts how much damage they inflict.
• Attack Cooldowns: Affects how frequently they can attack.

Health Bars:

• Red Bar: Standard health, depleted by normal weapons, unarmed attacks, and falling off cliffs in specific areas. NPCs with no ally status will die permanently if this bar depletes.
• White Bar: Faint health, affected by faint weapons or specific faint attacks. NPCs can be captured if this bar is depleted before the red bar.

General Combat Tips:

1. Choose Your Weapon: Understand its range and attack speed.
2. Combat Strategy: Allow enemies to attack while dodging, then use heavy attacks. Repeat until victory.
3. Specialization: Adapt your strategy based on your preferred fighting style or weapon mastery.

NPCs and Their Combat Characteristics:

• Spider: Weakest enemies, found in spider caves. Deal with them using melee attacks. They are slow and deal minimal damage.
• Bat: Have 8 health, are hard to see, and deal low damage. Use weapons dealing 8+ damage or move through them and attack from behind.
• Snail: Deals 1 damage and can hide below objects. Find and eliminate it quickly.

Additional NPCs and their specifics:

Each NPC may have unique combat mechanics, health stats, and methods for dealing with them. For a complete strategy, refer to detailed guides or in-game experiences for specific NPCs not listed.

Taming NPCs

Taming NPCs involves three steps:

1. Knocking them unconscious: Use faint weapons for this purpose.
2. Placing them in a suitable taming space: There are various types of taming spaces depending on the NPC size.
3. Providing them with food: Different NPCs prefer different foods, and their taming efficiency depends on the type of food provided.

Types of Taming Spaces:

• Wood Fence (Small): For small animals like chickens, rabbits.
• Wood Fence (Large): For medium-sized animals like Milky’s, sheep.
• Iron Fence: For larger animals like Bears, Werewolves.
• Wood and Iron Cage: For taming natives; wood for one native, iron for up to three.

Food and Taming:

• NPCs have specific preferred foods that affect taming speed. Typically, foods that provide minimal hunger satisfaction are preferred for quicker taming.
• Example: Male Natives prefer large cooked meat (7), berries, and other foods.

Taming Process:

• Once taming reaches 100%, it will display "MAX".
• To set an NPC free to wander, place them in your inventory, right-click to release, and manage their territory and actions via the menu.

Managing NPCs:

• Territory: Adjust the center of their roaming area.
• Combat Area: Define where they will fight hostile NPCs.
• Waiting Pose: Configure idle animations when not wandering.

Friendly NPCs:

• If a friendly NPC dies in combat, they remain in a death state until they recover, which may be delayed by factors like lack of food or water.
• If an NPC is "Swept Away" during a raid, a skull icon will appear on the map indicating their location. The Warden, a miniboss, may replace raiders and pose a significant threat. Save NPCs within the allotted time to prevent execution or force-breeding.

Taming Details for Specific NPCs:

• Spider (Cave): Dies upon encounter.
