The fact any one of us could have found the secret and will never know is funny and terrifying

The tea set was my first Christmas present I was surprised to find out it was rare lol

A weird one I've seen only once: Iridium Milk. Not the Iridium large milk, the regular sized Iridium milk. Generally, if the cow likes you enough for it, you'll just get some variety of large milk.

Am I considering marrying Penny just for those moon and star decals? Yes, yes I am.

As of 1.6 you can now obtain penny’s exclusive furniture items during the new desert festival if she is one of the two villagers with a shop.

The final not found text could be Robin saying “Lew- oh…” instead of Marnie. I got it recently and I’ve seen it only subtly mentioned. Just as rare, but much lesser known.

rip to those player who stumbled upon the living hats in their first 5 seconds of weeding but no one would believe them

I feel like an entire search needs to be dedicated towards the undiscovered secret. All code miners and tryhards need to unite in the search of this one mystery

Tea Sets! My favorite. They are even rarer than you mention here. None of the children characters can give them to you either. So you can add Leo, Vincent, and Jaz to the list. You can up your chances of getting one by resetting the day and entering the festival at a different time. The gift is chosen based on the position of the villager when you enter the festival. Some villagers like Pierre stand still the whole time and can only give you one gift. But some like Abby move a whole bunch and are almost guaranteed to give you a tea set if you reset enough.

After watching another KZfaqr ACTIVELY search for the living hat for 300 days in Stardew, I screamed with excitement when I found it in year one on my latest play through! I made a whole outfit around it and everything.

"weeds" is actually an item but it got patched in 1.4. if you still have a save with it, you can have it on 1.5 even though you could only get in in 1.3, so i would say its pretty rare, and i actually have it!. also great video btw!

I only have 40 hours on Stardew. I got the living hat in day 1 and was annoyed I couldn’t put it into the shipping container 🤡🤡🤡🤡

I actually got the tea set on accident when alex gave it to me at the festival. Didn't know what it was but it looked cool, so i placed it in a chest. Glad I didnt throw it out LMAO

Theoretically couldn’t you get all of Penny’s 14 heart event items if you have players in multiplayer marry her? Im almost 100% positive that heart events play once per player. And since the other players aren’t you they should be able to trigger that heart event. I mean you would have to have them upgrade their house and go through all the steps to marry her and 14 hearts. But then you could get all the items!

i have 200 hours of this game and i still fell like there's a lot of things i didn't see

I believe you can get all of penny’s heart event items by making new farmers having them join the multiplayer farm get penny to 14 hearts and choose an option you haven’t chosen, then they remove the items throw them to the main farmer and divorce penny, letting another player marry her and get the final set of items

I got two living hats and didn’t even know they’re that rare. I kept only one to wear. Edit: I also got a three paintings from the night market. My luck usually sucks, so I don’t what is happening in my world.

Every time this "undiscovered secret" from ConcernedApe comes up I think about the obscure statues around town. Additionally, thanks for pointing out another way to get the silly green hat! I got the three paintings by chance because I just decided to buy them in year 3 since I love snakes and what the heck, got one already, go for them all! The Movie is a very obscure one that I might try to get. Lastly, I gave up on Maru because Demetrius creeped me out around their two heart event and went for Penny. No regrets and the Strawberry room is so cute I never touch it!

My theory on what ConcernedApe was talking about at the end is the Joja CD's you fish up as trash. The description says "It's a JojaNet 2.0 trial CD. They must've made a billion of these things." My theory is that you get some special message for actually getting a billion, and maybe you can no longer find them.

Well, from watching Argon's Ironman challenge, apparently there are some clothes that only are obtainable through marrying Emily. (also, one single top, that's only obtainable when creating your character) Now seeing that Penny can give you other rare items makes me wonder what else I'm missing out on, from only ever having gone with Sebastian and Krobus.

I just got the living hat on my first day on my newest farm. I have over 400 hours in stardew. I honestly didn't know it was rare because I didnt know it existed.

I want the Strange Capsule to turn out to be something. Replace Pierre with an alien or something. Give Shane a demo-dog pet or something. Anything!

Great video! Another good addition is the “boat painting” which requires you to play on the beach farm which is equated to hard mode :)

I'm happy you didn't mention the crop fairy, the alien, the stone owl, the sea monster, etc. Now I have to go get that living hat...

I appreciate that this is something truly different. Too many SDV videos are so alike. I do have to laugh that CA made a message that was supposed to point toward something but made it so obscure nobody's ever found it.

Can I say, if somebody has furniture from Penny’s heart event from more than one option, they could’ve got a second player to marry her and pick a different option

in my 100% completion save file, within the first spring and summer of sdv, i managed to get : 2 meteorites, three owl statues (💀), that lizard looking thing that appears in the ocean TWICE and a living hat... i didnt use a preset seed or wtvr for this save file, so im just so confused on how i was so lucky 😭

I kept the alien tank thingy because i know after it hatches you get the random creepy bus scenes but i keep that tank in my chest so it can never fully incubate lol

Could that secret be the runes on the walls of the skull cavern, indicating the wizard had banished the monsters there? But it's evolved into more of a Mr Qi type area?

What about the iridium krobus statue? That could be considered a “post game item” and it’s probably a lot more specific to obtain than the movie poster

Amazing Stardew content, keep it up! Inspired my husband and I to start a new playthough. Would love to see another mod showcase.

I had no idea the living hat was so rare! I got it without even realizing I had it at first, and I just finished my 100% Perfection file today, so it is crazy knowing how lucky I got even in a really long save. Without ever fighting a wilderness golem too!

The "yet to be found" message is likely referring to the deciphered messages on the Plaques that appear in the Skull Cavern!

The Living Hat is that rare?? I literally got it before my first egg festival… that’s pretty cool! :)

As said in this vid, normally these types of videos just cover things we as players already know. Kudos for putting in the effort to find genuinely interesting facts in this one 👍 i learned some stuff

I wonder if ConcernedApe would ever reveal the extremely obscure secret in the far future

What about the iridium Korbus statue? Needing ginger island for an enchanted fishing rod, fishing10 and sea foam pudding as well as knowing the exact spot and getting a perfect cast seems rare enough

Every time I see a new video on this game from you I'm always wondering how much there still is to be shown and I'm amazed at how much content you can squeeze out of this game!

I actually got the serpent painting, I have put it inside of my house few years ago both IRL time and ingame time and had it placed there for so long I might have the other ones too but I always have the serpent there each time I wake up

Such a great video!👍👍 regarding the suggestions - have you made a video about weapon forging? I remember you mentioned your plans about making it in your perfection let’s play :) it would be so cool! But no pressure! I can’t even imagine how much effort you put into these videos 🙏🏼

The Living Hat is one of the luckiest things that happened in my life. I was playing the game normally on a new file and on the fourth day I got it. Didn’t even realize it.

I didn't know about Penny's decoration at all, since I had never married her. I love her moon and star decorations! Thanks.

the thing with penny’s exclusive decor sets- the exclusivity is no more! after 1.6, now there is the Desert Festival, and each of the village NPCs have a chance to host their own sale each day of the festival, and if she hosts a sale, you can buy any of the decorations from her!

You can get all three Penny things legitimately if you have two friends and a little over 100,000 gold.

And there's the Work Boots. If you play remixed mine chests there's a 1/6 chance (according to seed, so resetting the day won't change it) to get them in the first chest. Otherwise the wiki says there's a 0.012% chance to get them in a fishing chest. Seeing as how you'd need to maximize luck to give you ~50% chance to see a chest when fishing, and the time it takes to fish for chests, you're more likely to get a few living hats before seeing the Work Boots assuming you chop weeds periodically.

“There’s only one movie poster in the crane game at a time” *shows footage of two movie posters in the crane game*

Whoa! The fish painting and the desert mountain landscape painting are the ONLY paintings I have hung up on my walls, and I had no idea they were rare.

This is such an incredibly niche question so I don't know if anyone would know but - if I marry Penny, divorce her, and then *player two* marries her.. Can they trigger the cutscene and pick a different outcome?

Actually once you redo your bedroom with penny, if you have the furniture catalog all the items from all 3 choices will be it

i got the living hat on the first fiber i broke in a 4 player world my friends now call me the chosen one

oh! last winter in my save i saw those three paintings! i only bought land of clay and that snake one though, cause the fish was boring to me, I didn't know it was rare :') I saw the snake and instantly knew I needed it, it just spoke to me. and land of clay is pretty cool.

clint: oh.. hey fa- farmer farmer:say my name clint: wh- what? farmer: say my name clint:[94][590][74]? farmer: you are goddamm right

Is it the one where Abigail asked about birth control? Because I got that on day one of a playthrough and it confused me.

That fist of the north star reference earned you a new sub lmao

I was able to get the tea set on my 4th play through 1st winter. I was so amazed but I never knew it was that rare!

I love collecting the movie posters! The Zuzu City Express poster was one of the first ones I got! :D

Almost 1000 hrs playing this game over various save files and I just got a tea set from Jodi!! Next stop living hat woot woot!!🤗

I somehow got two living hats in my first ever game (before year 3 I might add) and I've never found them in any other save file. I have over 1000 hours in this game but that first save is the only time I found a living hat; I had no idea they were rare at the time

You will never get Iridium quality Octopus and Legend in normal playthrough because of our limit of fishing skill. You can get it by using big fishing bar that cover all top from bottom.

Sebastian gave me a tea set one year, and I didn’t know it was a rare item, but I was so grateful because it was pretty!!

has anyone ever gotten this besides me i had a rabbit take a photo of me during the egg festival when i went behind the rabbit cutout he laughed and ran away it has only happend once but i need to know has anyone else seen it?

Oh, snap. I had no idea about Penny having a set of items one time only. I'm really surprised wiping her memory doesn't allow access to the others. I'm slowly marrying and divorcing everyone, so I have a big choice ahead of me.

No way! I got the tea set from Sam at my first ever feast of the winter star :O Maybe that raised my expectations too much because I was lowkey disappointed by the jade I got the following year lol

I'm glad this video was made its cool seeing thing I didnt know about rather than the night events lol

I think that Concerned Ape is lying about the secret tbh. With how hacked and ripped the game is, I don't think it's possible that anything remains undiscovered

I was shocked to get the Living Hat by accident when starting a new farm on Day 1. I didn't even really chop that many weeds. I figured I'd never ever get it. Now, even though I never play that save file, I keep it because I don't think I'll ever get that lucky again, haha.

That tea set surprised me, since it was the first gift ever I received :D

I got the living hat on my first playthrough during first fall, had no idea it had such a low drop rate till now.

I've got the 'Living hat' in the mines and I got the tea set on my first Stardew Saved File from Sam and I also got the trash can lid hat. Each of them is on my three saved files.

ok wow literally just started the video up but, i just wanted to say you have a very calming voice :)

I got the living hat in spring of the first year, I was just trying to make room for my crops, I didn’t even know it was rare until recently lmao

Woah, I have both the Serpent painting and the Zuzu City Express poster! I didn't know they were rare.

I remember, in my first playthrough of SDV with my husband, I received both the tea set on our first Winter Star and the leaf crown randomly.

the tea set has been my first ever gift, in my first ever play of this game like many years ago when the game wasn't well known as today. And not only that, it has been my first gift in any other playthrough until some years later, so I always thought it was the first gift to receive on christmas. I couldn't go search it as it wasn't a known game, seeing it's so low-chance to get just really make me go crazy at how fortunate I was all those years ago I hated that thing.

I watched that stream with CA and must have missed that part about another unfound secret. That has me so curious now! I must find it!

1:46 I got it on my first year of my first playthrough but at the time I didn't know it was so rare.

I got my living leaf hat in my year 2 year of my first ever playthrough, and my teaser that same winter. First now learned that they were rare, just thought it was cool for my horse to be wearing camouflage :D

The tea set can only be given by any ADULT except the ones you named. So you cannot get it from Jas or Vincent either. Leo also shows up to The Feast of the WINTER Star (not North Star as said in the video) once he moves to Pelican Town, so that just skews your odds for getting matched with someone who can give you the tea set even more since Leo is a kid. So the numbers in the video are a bit off. They should be 22/29 before Leo moves to town or 22/30 odds after to get a secret Santa who can give you the gift, so slightly worse odds than shown in the video. It's also worth noting for those who really want it, that provided your secret Santa is someone who can give it to you, you can just keep resetting the day until you get it, because the gift you receive is determined at the moment you receive it, as opposed to being tied to the day based on the seed or anything like that. Emily also has some items for the player that can only be obtained by marrying her, and since I'd wager most people don't marry multiple NPCs during a run just to obtain such items, I would also include those items on this list. Not to mention some of the secret statues since many people won't know they exist without explicitly looking up Stardew Easter eggs. Eric Barone said the undiscovered thing was a secret message, not an item. Would still be cool to find but idk if it would technically fit on this list. I also wonder if that interview was before certain messages in the game were deciphered. If so, then it's possible what he was referring to has been found since then.

I have a save file that got the living hat in the first week of spring just by randomly cutting weeds and then the stone owl during that same first winter.... I had no idea how crazy that was!

on my first ever play through of stardew, i got the tea set. it wasn’t until a couple of irl months later that i found out how rare it was

I love that tea set. I've managed to get it twice in my eight year farm. One for my Valley house and one for Ginger house. ^-^

I thought the Tea set was a stardew expanded thing because when I installed the modpack and the Christmas party was going on, Shane got me one and I just thought nothing of it at the time.

i got the tea set and i think all of the paintings you showed it took a total of 11 in game years and i didn't know they were rare i just have a shopping addiction so EVERY time i go to the night market i buy the painting no matter if i already have them

I've watched this multiple times now and "Nut Boy" gets me every time 😅

I managed to get the Living Hat on day 1 of my recently started farm ! I didn't even realize how rare it is until I watched this !

I got the tea set my first Winter Spirit thing. I got it from Pam, and I assumed it was because I had interacted with a lot of the stuff in mayor Lewis' house

I got the tea set my first save file year one :) George gave it to me and I didn’t like George and I threw the tea set on my table the game gives you (I hadn’t even bothered decorating much of my house or got any upgrades) and I was genuinely shocked it find it was considered rare

Rewatching this, and right after I watched it the first time I got the tea set right after when I went to go play lol

0:55 I found this hat once on one of my maps. I was so happy xD Same with the garbage hat xD

I actually got the living hat randomly in the trash on my first save. Recently I got it on my 4th save digging through the trash again on year 2.5. I haven't gotten the trashcan hat yet or the tea set!

How this only has 500 likes but 13k views is beyond me! Give this man some love!

i remember on my first save i got the living hat somewhere around day 8 of spring in my first year. i deleted that save file a couple years ago and i've regretted doing that ever since

I remember getting the living hat in the first season of the Year 1. Didn't know it was rare so it just sat in my drawer ever since then haha

Wait...I got the tea set for the Christmas Gift. :O Neat!

2:50 wow i didn't know that, but i got exactly those three paintings on my 6th year playthrough, btw i never bought any painting from night market before

I got the living hat in one of my play throughs from cutting a weed. It was so cool, it’s my favorite 😊

I got the living hat in year one of my first playthrough I'm supprised it's so rare!

first of all, great video! I know a fair bit about stardew valley, but I had no idea there were so many rare items I hadn't heard about before! second of all, oh my god please tell me you have the link to that among us junimo mod I NEED it

I've gotten the living hat before. Had no clue it was rare, and I ended up deleting that save file at one point. In that same file, I ALSO got the tea set.

i didn’t know the tea set was that rare lmao. on my first ever stardew file (which i still have) i got it on like my first or second christmas
