Soulmask Survival Tips: Mastering Feces Gathering and Usage

Soulmask seamlessly combines base management with indie survival elements. Players can build large structures, gather resources, automate production, and manage minions. A crucial aspect of base management is ensuring there is enough food for all the followers.

The most straightforward solution to food shortages is to grow crops on the base. However, crops take time to mature, and fertilizers are essential to make farming efficient. All fertilizers in the game require feces as the base material, making it a vital resource for farmers.

How to Get Feces in Soulmask

Feces is a necessary ingredient for crafting different types of fertilizers. Getting feces is about as easy as it sounds. If players want to collect waste to enhance their plant growth, there are three main methods to achieve this:

Outhouse: Players can unlock the Outhouse building at Awareness Strength 15. Tribe members will automatically use the Outhouse, generating feces in the process. Players can also use it themselves to generate this resource.

Animal Barns: Unlocked at Awareness Strength 10, small animal barns continuously produce a small amount of feces. Players can collect this as needed to make fertilizer for their crops.

Mounts: Tamed animal mounts sporadically produce feces. This can be collected from the ground for future use.

How to Use Feces in Soulmask

Once players collect feces, they can use it to craft the following fertilizers:

Ash Fertilizer: Used for pumpkin seeds. Players need 2 feces and 5 Ash Fire to craft it.
Bone Powder Fertilizer: Used for corn, peanut, tomato, and cashew seeds. Players require 2 feces and 5 Bone/Phosphorus Powder to make it.
Stone Powder Fertilizer: Used for chili, guava, and papaya seeds. Players need 2 feces and 5 Acidic Fluid/Niter Powder to craft it.

When players reach Awareness Strength 25, they can unlock Compound Fertilizer, an all-purpose fertilizer that uses Ash, Bone Powder, Stone Powder Fertilizer, and Compost. Storing a large amount of feces is essential, as it is required for all these types of fertilizers.
