1.6 Completionist Checklist Tracker Guide

Need a 1.6 completionist checklist for Stardew Valley? Track every Golden Walnut, shipment, and villager heart to hit 100% Perfection fast.

Tracking 100% completion in Stardew Valley 1.6 requires monitoring Perfection via Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island, which involves shipping every item, finding all Golden Walnuts, and maxing out villager friendships.

⚡ Quick Answer (TL;DR): You achieve 100% Perfection by interacting with the Perfection Tracker inside Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island. Requirements include finding all 130 Golden Walnuts, maxing friendship with all 34 villagers, completing all Monster Eradication goals, catching all fish, building the Gold Clock, and shipping every single item in the game.

Quick Summary

  • Access the Perfection Tracker in Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island after collecting 100 Golden Walnuts.
  • You must ship every shipped item in the game at least once, totaling hundreds of unique crops, forageables, and artisan goods.
  • Max out friendship levels with 34 villagers — the tracker requires maximum hearts for everyone (datable villagers go 8 → 10 with a Bouquet).
  • Clear all Monster Eradication Goals at the Adventurer's Guild to check off the combat requirements.

1. Tracking Your 1.6 Completionist Checklist Progress

When you step into Qi's Walnut Room, the terminal on the right displays your overall Perfection percentage. I always check this terminal first to see exactly what categories I am missing. The tracker breaks down into several strict categories: Shipped Items, Maxed Friendships, Stardew Valley Hero (monster slaying), Green Fingers (finding all Golden Walnuts), and a few miscellaneous arcade achievements.

Keep in mind that the 1.6 update added new items and adjusted some monster spawns. If you played before 1.6, your previous save might register new missing shipment slots. You have to physically ship one of every new 1.6 crop and artisan good to push that tracker back up to 100%.

2. Golden Walnuts and Ginger Island Cleanup

Finding all 130 Golden Walnuts is a massive bottleneck for the completionist checklist. You get them by searching Ginger Island, solving puzzles, and farming rare drops. I strongly suggest bringing a bomb or two to the island dig site to uncover buried walnuts quickly.

3. Shipping Every Item and Maxing Friendships

The shipping requirement is the most time-consuming part of the tracker. You have to ship one of every single item in the game, which means growing every crop and producing every artisan good. Using the Greenhouse to grow off-season crops is mandatory for this step.

For villager friendships, you need to reach max hearts with every single villager (8 for non-datable villagers; datable villagers need a Bouquet to go from 8 to 10). Giving two gifts per week plus a loved gift on their birthday is the fastest way to push this number up. I found that keeping a chest full of universal loved gifts like the Prismatic Shard makes this process much smoother.
