IMPORTANT: It seems something related to wild food growth changed in 1.3.0 which might require minor changes to some parts of the route. However I'm not planning on routing this out again until 1.4.0 rolls around, as that update will likely shake up the route much more than 1.3.0 did.

Image containing all Slimepedia entries (provided by PickPig): NOTE: this image is outdated and does not include entires introduced in 1.2.0 onwards

If you have any improvements or suggestions please let me know! (@Supra on the Discord server)

IMPORTANT: • As of 1.2.2, the Party Gordo appears in a set location on any given weekend. For the currently known most optimal location, set your computer date to June 15-17, 2018 before starting a run.

Terms • NB - Newbucks / money • {Day #} - Day you'll be on in an ideal run

---

General Tips/Notes • Ranch layout: • This route is idealistic. Improvisation will probably be required • If something is in caps, it's probably easy to forget and very important • If you have free slots, carry a chicken in case a Lucky Slime appears • Get familiar with Gilded Ginger locations http://slimerancher.wikia.com/wiki/Gilded_Ginger/Locations

---

Things that can go horribly wrong • Gilded Ginger. • Gold/Lucky Slimes • Abysmal plort prices • Unlucky Slime spawns (Hunter, Honey, Rad) • Odd Onion • Not getting required Resources from the 3 Desert Extractors • Not enough Roostros/Hen Hens for free ranging • Small chance of Tarr from Honey/Boom plorts flying outside the corral. Buy Air Net if you want to avoid this possibility

---

Things to do at (almost) any point in the run • Gold + Lucky Slimes • Tabby Slime entry • Elder Hen + Elder Roostro entries • Tarr + Feral entries

---

Things to do throughout the run • Roostros for Hen Hen free ranging (shoot them into the wall behind the block of 4 plots on the Ranch, they'll breed and become Elders throughout the run) • Better if you get a Roostro early on, but it's not a big deal if you don't

---
