Similar to Day 1. However, players are recommended to the following things:

Continue to explore as much as possible.
Meanwhile, players are not recommended to consume Monster Meat, and instead save it to feed Pigs (especially if you want to fight Werepigs for collecting more loot); otherwise just let it turn into Rot as fertilizer for Farming.

Players may befriend with Pigs by giving them a piece of Meat, they can help chop down trees and fight against Monsters. They might be very helpful to beginners, but players are reminded that pigs will turn into Werepigs in full moon phase.

More Tips
  • Create a Pickaxe in Icon Tools tab. Mine Rocks for Gold Nuggets, and create a Science Machine in Icon Science tab.
  • Prototype Rope in Icon Refine tab for crafting Log Suit and Spear in Icon Fight tab.
  • Explore for an area that has Beefalos (Savanna biome), because lots of Manure can be found and they are used for fertilizing crops.
  • When the Hounds appear, to avoid taking damage, try to find a nearby beefalo herd, not in mating season, and avoid getting hit.
  • Avoid crazy enemies (Tentacles, Spider Warriors, etc.) until the player has acquired an Amulet, or created a Meat Effigy (used for reviving player when they die).
  • Whenever you're fighting enemies, keep an eye on Spear and Log Suit durability.
    If exploring, don't forget to return and replace any checkable Traps.
  • Heal Characters by eating Petals or killing Spiders for Spider gland.
  • Explore as much as possible before setting camp. A great camping spot should be centered around a good list of the following: Touchstone, Pigs/Beefalos, a Savannah with lots of grass/rabbit holes, a worm hole, loads of boulders and trees. Priorities such as Beehives, Marsh, Caves, Maxwell's things, Walrus camps, Tallbird nests should be left alone until the later days when you don't have to worry about health, hunger, sanity and basic materials.
  • At night, when you can't find a good base around the early days(Day 2+), have at least a torch and materials for an emergency campfire to continue exploring. The more you expand your map, the better of an idea on where you want to set a fire pit. It is best to follow roads with a torch while constantly checking the map to avoid mob territory (spider dens, nests etc.).
  • Try to find the Pig King and a Beefalo herd as soon as possible. The Pig King will give you gold in exchange for Meats such as Eggs. However, don't build too close to the Pig King, as the pigs can turn into Werepigs.
  • Build your base close to a Beefalo herd, but be at least 1 biome away as Beefalos in heat will attack you.
