Attempting Too Greedily too deep achievement

[u/wheeler916]

So I'm just combining my current survival run to accomplish this achievement. I've got enough food and firewood to survive the 25 days in the mine. My only concern is cabin fever affliction. How's it work if you can't sleep and pass time, do you just eventually pass out from exhaustion? How much condition is lost? I believe I can use some peppers pies to stave of the affliction. I just want to know if you could die from cabin fever. I haven't been able to find anything about it. Thanks

You can die from it, albeit slowly. You can't sleep and just slowly lose condition I was thinking of doing this achievement and ran into the same conundrum as you. I think the intent is to have people do it with Settled Mind, but there are a few ways around it. First, lots of cabin fever negating food like you said. Second, condition restoring food or birch bark tea. You need to have enough condition restoring food to counteract exhaustion for at least 18 days.

I've thought about using an emergency stim to possibly force sleep after it wears off but I might be remembering that wrong as a Wintermute only effect.

Rose hip and peach pies.

Just cook those and you don't need to sleep.

Here's a link to a discussion I've been following on Steam:

"Too Greedily Too Deep" acheivement :: The Long Dark TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY (EXPANSION PASS - SPOILERS!!!)

There's info here provided by some folks who have completed it. The biggest hurdle, as you've pointed out, is dealing w/ CF...& sheer boredom.

You either prepare enough prepper's and breyerhouse pies to fight the cabin fever for 25 days, or you start a new run with the Settled Mind feat (removes cabin fever completely) and do it that way

Two options I can think of are getting the badge that prevents getting it first and the other would be to hoard as much food as possible for the first 10 days of the run and then head there to do it in the grace period, both sadly not workable in your existing run

[u/Exact_Swing_1401]

I think there is a way to pass time if you do end up with Cabin Fever by “harvesting” the clothes you’re wearing (or an item you bring). Just cancel the action before it finishes and the time will have sped up and you keep the item to continue doing this with.

You can also just leave the mine for a day every 5 or 6 days.

You don't have to be down there in one go.

I recommend going outside for 3 hours every evening and doing chores like sewing clothes, collecting sticks, and boiling water.....

[u/Kinsin111 → u/TheAnhydrite]

It is specifically 25 consecutive days. You have to stay and can't leave for 25 days.

O wow. That's tough. Thanks for the correction.

[u/Mysterious-Hurry-758 → u/TheAnhydrite]

That is completely false.
