Stardew Valley 1.3 Skull Cavern guide: 2600 Iridium, Floor 369, 37 Prismatic Shard

Time stamps will be lower in the description, so you can skip the boring parts if you want. This is a guide for the Skull Cavern (no voice commentary, but I am typing my thoughts using the in-game chat) post-patch 1.3. This patch removed the infinite time journal exploit (good riddance!) and it removed bomb-eating. The removal of bomb-eating makes Skull Cavern Runs (SCR) a LOT harder. Time is much more valuable now. It also introduced new monsters which drop more iridium. In this run, I reach floor 369, obtaining 2600 iridium ore and 37 prismatic shards, using a max setup (costs about 3-4M). I explain the strategy in the video. But here's a rundown: Use staircases to pass the first 250 or so floors. Use bombs to mass destroy iridium on good floors, and skip the rest. You don't need a pickaxe or sword, that's a waste of space. Keep an eye on your health, you'll be tanking a lot of hits.
