Fae Farm Critter Catching: Ultimate Guide & Tips

Critter catching is an essential skill in the enchanting world of Fae Farm. From elusive butterflies to mischievous blob creatures, this guide will help you become a master critter catcher. Let’s explore the secrets of finding and capturing every critter across Azoria’s landscapes.

How to Catch Critters in Fae Farm

To begin your critter-catching adventure, you’ll need a Critter Net. Mel, the friendly beekeeper, provides this crucial tool during the game’s tutorial. Here’s how to use it:

1. Equip your Critter Net
2. Approach a critter (sneaking may help with trickier ones)
3. Swing when close enough – look for sparkles to indicate catchable critters

How to Level Up Critter-Catching Skills

As you catch more critters, your skills improve. This unlocks bonuses and access to better nets. Mel offers upgraded nets at levels 3, 5, and 7, allowing you to catch rarer and more elusive creatures.

Net Type	Level	Cost	Required Material
Sturdy Critter Net	3	1,000	Critter Net
Advanced Critter Net	5	2,500	Sturdy Critter Net
Master Critter Net	7	5,000	Advanced Critter Net

Some tips that you need to remember when you are on a journey to catch critters in Fae Farm are:

• Keep moving around the map, because critters respawn over time.
• Watch for weather changes. Some critters only appear in specific conditions. We will elaborate on this below.
• Use upgraded nets for rare critters.
• Consider eating critter-catching meals to boost your skills temporarily.

After you catch critters, there are a few ways you can do with them. You can sell them for quick Florins if you’re looking to make some money fast. Another option is to store them for future use in crafting or to complete quests. If you’re into collecting, you can create a Critter Conservatory, where you can display your critters and even generate resources over time.

Advanced Critter-Catching Strategies

Critters in Fae Farm are more than just collectibles, they play an important role as valuable resources for your farm. Frogs, for example, are key to crafting fertilizer, helping you save money on farm expenses.

Many critters also serve as essential ingredients in potion crafting, while others are needed for specific quests and crafting recipes. It’s worth prioritizing rare critters, which are often marked with an asterisk in the critter tables, as they tend to offer more valuable resources.

Upgrading your net by visiting Mel regularly is another great way to improve your chances of catching higher-quality critters. Finally, setting up multiple Critter Conservatories will allow you to maximize resource generation from your collection.

With this guide, you’re well-equipped to become Azoria’s premier critter catcher. Happy hunting!
