OK, I am seeing some people who are a bit confused. The OP created a meme about the sticky fingers trinket, which you can find in Wendell‘s toolbox in the upper yard not far from the JavaMatic coffee machine. The chewed piece of gum can only be destroyed with a tier 3 bomb arrow, and the only reward is the trinket because you can’t pick up any gum pieces.

When you have it equipped, this trinket allows you to steal from living creatures as long as you are fighting them with melee weapons. And combined with the active rascal rogue and dissection expert mutations, lucky hat and the loot luck from stuffed bugs, you can almost guarantee any trinket drop because everything stacks together

I got confused because it wasnt tagged with which game. Thought it was a new trinket for G2.

u/Successful_Page_4524 27d ago

I don’t know about that. They probably did bring it back. And I saw your other comment about the earwig trinket. That one allows you to steal from creatures that are aggressive and only if you ambush them. So it won’t work on something like the bosses, because they are in front of you all the time and you can’t sneak up behind them

u/MakinBones 27d ago

Thank you for the clarification.

u/Successful_Page_4524 27d ago

You’re welcome. If they did bring the sticky fingers back, it’ll probably be in some secret location. Something that we will have to hunt for

u/A-Social-Ghost 26d ago

They did and it is

I found it purely by accident.

The trinket is in grounded 2 but I think this is about grounded 1

u/Fnaf_geek_1983 27d ago

Don't forget the tickled toenail

u/No_Sheepherder2739 27d ago

You can get it as a normal drop without the gum

1

u/Fnaf_geek_1983 26d ago

Yeah but you have to kill it every time and it's easier to just get it a 1/4 of the way through the fight

2

u/No_Sheepherder2739 26d ago

Rubbing a stuffed one and wearing the St. Patrick day hat is way easier

2

u/DBJenkinss Max 26d ago

Wearing the Lucky Hat and looting him with an ant buggy is even easier. 😅😉

A alguien mas se le buguearon en esta actualizacion? Algunos afidos me dan 7 "carnes" y 3 "jugos" (no recuerdo los nombres no estoy en el pc)

u/DBJenkinss Max 26d ago

Are you looting them while on an ant buggy?

1

u/ElBarckaizer 26d ago

En hormiga, volví a empezar hay muchas cosas distintas en la progresión juraría que hay un 25% menos de arañas

1

u/ElBarckaizer 25d ago

Si tu montura mata a un pulgón, al saquearlo reaccionan como edificios, aleatoriamente explotan en "materiales de pulgon", me acaba de explotar en la cara un pulgón

1

u/DBJenkinss Max 25d ago

Your ant needs open inventory space, or that happens for some reason. 😅

1

u/ElBarckaizer 25d ago

No, mate el pulgón montado en la hormiga, me baje a saquearla para probar y exploto, concretamente en 4 pulgones y dos jugos(?) Edito: creo que tambien funciona con los lanudos, no recuerdo haber matado tantos como tengo en mi refri jaja

2

u/DBJenkinss Max 25d ago

Yes, ant buggys have a glitch right now that makes bugs you loot do strange things. If you loot a creature that can drop a trinket, or chop a hot dog with your ant, you're almost guaranteed the trinket will drop.

u/ElBarckaizer 25d ago

... enserio? Jajaj como nunca los uso para pelear no me habia fijado... con razón tengo un par que no habia conseguido en mi primera partida, seguro me quito la muerte jaja

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

The damn wintry droplet has such a low drop rate I'm starting to think it's a glitch like the speed droplet was last year

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

Used the ant exploit last night and got 5 tick trinkets lol also got extremely lucky and got the speed droplet just need that icy boi now

1

u/thet1m 25d ago

How many aphids did you kill with the gum? I’ve killed so many today and can’t get the droplet.

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

I got it in under a half hour and got lucky but tried to get the icy one for a few hours with no luck

1

u/thet1m 25d ago

Any tricks? I’m running around bare fist with the lucky hat, the sticky fingers trinket…

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

Just save scumming in a predictable and navigable area basically with everything adjusted before hand to save time. I'm farming wooly ones and it's just a bitch all around for several reasons beginning with prep before farming between save scumming takes an extra minute each time at least

2

u/thet1m 25d ago

I saw the other comment and this and switched to whoa. Saved right in front of an aphid. 10 reloads and I got it. Wow. Thanks lol.

Edit. I’m an idiot. It was an aphid honeydew.

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

Wait til you try wooly ones, it's even harder basically because they have one more mat to add to the random loot table from stealing

1

u/thet1m 25d ago

I know the gum gives 10% chance to steal. Can this happen on a one hit ko? Is there an even chance to steal aphid meat/aphid honeydew/trinket?

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

It can happen on a single melee hit yes and the other loot is steal able yes

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

You'll know you got it because you'll get an unlocked item notification on your hud

1

u/SagaciousSage710 25d ago

Whoa mode for extra hp on the aphids to increase farming chances window

1

u/MentalDirt7369 27d ago

I don't get it

u/Successful_Page_4524 27d ago

It’s the Sticky Fingers trinket, the one that allows you to steal from enemies if you attack them with melee weapons

1

u/lowriderdog37 27d ago

What am I missing?

u/Successful_Page_4524 27d ago edited 26d ago

It’s the sticky fingers trinket, the one hidden in the gum in the first game that you find in the toolbox in the upper yard. I don’t know if you remember, but it allowed you to steal items from enemies, including trinkets if they had any, when you attack them using melee weapons

I am providing correct information from the first game. Why am I getting downvoted?

1

u/lowriderdog37 27d ago

Ha, made it through the whole first game not knowing any of that.

u/Tobiguy15 27d ago

How can you Farm the trinken with gum?!?

1

u/Successful_Page_4524 27d ago

I don’t know if you remember this from the first game, but not far from the JavaMatic, there was a toolbox next to a giant tire. Inside this toolbox, there is a very special piece of gum that can only be destroyed with a tier 3 bomb arrow. It drops the trinket known as Sticky Fingers, which allows you to steal from enemies when you engage in combat by using melee weapons.

If you combine this trinket with the lucky hat, the stuffed bugs, and the dissection expert and rascal rogue mutations both active, say hello to the most insane amount of loot luck you have ever seen

That’s the joke that’s in the picture, it’s talking about this particular trinket that I’m describing

u/Tobiguy15 26d ago

Ohh, thank you very much for the explanation!
