-Scrapbook Description

The Lunar Experiment is a feature exclusive to the Hallowed Nights event in Don't Starve Together. It can be conducted at the Mad Scientist Lab, using a Moon Moth Wing and a Lune Tree Blossom, and depleting 10 Sanity Meter.png for the player. The experiment has a 50% chance to result in only one potion, a 30% to result in two potions and a 20% to result in three potions.

The experiment will result in a Steeped Lunar Essence that can be used to change items and mobs into their Lunar counterparts eg. Butterfly into Moon Moth.

Prototype.png Tips

  • Because it has a chance to give multiple potions, it can be used to multiply Lune Trees by planting 6 flowers, releasing a bee to propagate those flowers, turning the flowers into Lune Trees, chopping those trees for blossoms, and killing the spawned moths for wings.
  • Note also that flowers spawn butterflies, which can be turned into moths, which can be captured and planted as lune trees.
  • It can be used on a flying bird to stun it, making it fall to the ground where it can be picked up.

  • The Lunar Experiment was introduced to the Hallowed Nights event in 2019.
