Discounty – How To Unlock Fast Travel

achievement, Discounty, fast travel, guide, trophy

Walking around Blomkest every day, making stops at every business partner, and checking the Hardware Store can be a drag. Luckily, Discounty does have some fast travel points throughout the town. However, they are locked behind a side quest called Vermin Ties, and completing it will also net you The Streets Beneath achievement!

There is a catch: Vermin Ties, as well as getting all fast travel points, can only be completed by continuing the main story, with the last one located in Chapter 3.

Due to this being such a long quest line, this guide will also help you complete these quests:

Vermin Ties
Factory Enshrouded
Ramifications
Waste Waters
Making Amends
An Apple of the Occult
A Fish Fit for Oatmeal

The 5 Fast Travel Points are:

Harbour
Hardware Store
Forest
Tellar's Home
Farm

So keep this page bookmarked!

Unlocking Vermin Ties

Locate 4 rat infestations

To trigger the Vermin Ties quest, you first need to locate at least 4 areas in town where there are rats hanging out.

• Hanging out in the dumpster between the Bank and the Bar in the north side of town
• Hanging out in recycling centre to the left of the Hardware Store
• Top left corner of Midtown Blomkest, in the parking lot behind your store, Discounty
• By some hay stacks north of the barn in The Farm

Once you've witness the impending rat infestation, to avoid a pixel version of Plague Tale, it's time to ask Elmer about it! Unfortunately, Elmer proves to us once again how useless he is as a County Representative. He suggests talking to the people near where we've seen these infestations.

Harbour Fast Travel

The first point you unlock, not bad, I just wish it wasn't tucked away at the right edge of the harbour.

• Go to the Harbour
• Talk to Barbara
• Buy a Dollhouse from the Antique Store

There are rats located to the bottom right of the Harbour. Once you see them, you figure talking to Barbara about it would be best. As always, Barbara assumes zero responsibility, but suggests that the rats probably just needs a home so they wouldn't loiter.

Unless you've visited the Antique store, and happened to see and purchase a Dollhouse from Soluruna, you would never figure that the Dollhouse is what you need. Once you acquire one, place it on top of a crate by the rats and it'll trigger your first fast travel point using the sewage system to the harbour, linking to the back of Discounty.

Hardware Store Fast Travel

The most useful fast travel point besides Tellar's Home. It's even close to Town Hall and the Bar.

•Go to the Recycling Center
• Talk to Ted
• Complete A Factory Enshrouded gaining you access to the Forest & Factory
• Complete Ramifications increasing Karl's Trade Level to 2
• Give cheese to the rats.

This fast travel point requires that you've progressed far enough in the story that you have access to the forest. You need to complete 2 Main Story quest lines A Factory Enshrouded giving you access to the Forest and Karl's quest Ramifications unlocking his 2nd Trade Deal as well as cheese.

A Factory Enshrouded

•Speak to Guy the Delivery Guy
• Meet Guy at the parking lot, left of Town Hall
• Speak with Tammy in order to attempt a Trade Deal
• Ensure Tammy gets a perfect reaction during her Discounty visit
• Visit Tammy at the factory after work

Ramifications

•Speak to Karl
• Find Fluffles in the Forest ritual site, north of the forest & bring it back
•Speak to Hilda
• Go back to Karl and say you'll help
• Tag all sheep including Fluffles
• Return to Karl and unlock 2nd Trade Deal

Once both are complete, take some cheese with you and place it on the plate where the rats are in the Recycling Center. With that finally done, you now have a super useful fast travel to the Hardware Store.

Forest Fast Travel

Another odd location... I hope this is for a DLC or something, otherwise there's nothing here.

• Find the Sheep in the Abandoned Building
• Talk to Karl
• Unlock Energy Drinks using Discounty Points
• Feed to Sleepy Dora

South of Tammy's Plastic Factory is an Abandoned Tower and perhaps the most useless fast travel point in the game. There is a sheep sleeping there blocking the sewage. We need to find out how we can get that sheep out of the way by talking to Karl. Turns out, some delinquents have been feeding Sleepy Dora with something that got her going for hours, and now she sugar-crashed! To fuel her energy, we need to unlock Energy Drinks by redeeming Discounty Points. Once you do, feed it to Sleepy Dora and you got yourself a useless fast travel point to a useless building!

NOTE:
The last two fast travel points, south of Tellar's house and the Farm, can only be done in the last chapter during investigations. Depending on which investigation you do first (you need to do them all to progress the story) will net you earlier access to your desired fast travel point.

The one by Tellar's House is actually pretty useful since it's the fastest way to get to Fisher, it's unfortunate that we don't get it until chapter 3. If you want to get this first, make sure you prioritize the investigation into why the water is green in the Harbour.

If you want the Farm fast travel, you need to prioritize the investigation about the source of water contamination. This is a long quest line and is less useful, so I suggest getting this one last.

Tellar's Home Fast Travel

A super handy fast travel location to reach Fisher and 2 poster locations! Definitely get this 1st!

• Start investigation into why the sea is green
• Ask Fisher and Barbara about it
• Speak to Ted for more clues
• Enter the Harbour after 23:20
• Confront Barbara and receive Toxic Waste
• Feed Toxic Waste to the rats

Like I mentioned, this is a pretty useful fast travel to Fisher as the Harbour fast travel point, while useful isn't as good for getting to Fisher as well as putting up posters in the Harbour. Speak to Mrs. Andersen and start the investigation into the green sea starting the quest Waste Waters. Following these steps will complete this investigation as well as net you the fast travel point. Once you complete this quest, you'll get additional "shipments" from Barbara's Poseidon factory in the form of toxic waste barrels. You only need to keep one for the rats, the rest can be tossed in the garbage in the Recycling Center.

Farm Fast Travel

The location of this fast travel is so odd... meh, it is what it is.

• Start investigation on the source of the water contamination
• Complete linked quests: Making Amends, An Apple of the Occult, and A Fish Fit for Oatmeal
• Go back to Karl to ask him about the rats
• bring Oats, apple, and Fishy Stick to the rats

This is a long step in order to grab the last fast travel point into the farm. It's only relatively useful as it's in the middle between Karl, Tammy's house (useless location), and Mine (closed, and unused location), so I would definitely prioritize this last. However, the steps required for this fast travel are Main Story quests, so you might as well do it.

Go back to Mrs. Andersen and start the investigation on the source of the water contamination starting the quest Making Amends.

• Speak to Elmer then Tammy
• check out the fertilizer tank in the farm
• talk to Karl
• complete An Apple of the Occult, and A Fish Fit for Oatmeal

Speak Elmer and Tammy to start, letting you know that they are not only responsible, but also have little clue as you why the water is what it is. Go to the farm and to the left of Karl's sheep is the red Silo and a suspiciously pink fertilizer tank. Ask Karl about it and we find out that Solruna and her crazy self has struck again telling Karl to use special fertilizer for his potatoes. Since it didn't work Karl decides to make Nisse a special oatmeal. For this special oatmeal, we need special apple and hake (fish) starting 2 new quests: An Apple of the Occult and A Fish Fit for Oatmeal

An Apple of the Occult

• bring an apple to Solruna
• go back to the pink fertilizer and grab a sample
• go to Solruna's ritual site at the top right area of the Forest after 20:00

A Fish Fit for Oatmeal

• Talk to Fisher about acquiring some hake
• talk to Barbara
• compete against Barbara by selling 10 Fishy Sticks in 1 day
• TIP: take away all non-seafood related decorations in Discounty & put up Poseidon posters/more customer posters
• talk to Barbara

Once both quests are done, take the Infused Apple and hake to Karl. Check on Karl the next day to see the result.

Now that Making Amends has been completed, as well as unlocking Karl's final Trade deal, check back on the rats by the haystacks in the Farm. Ask Karl about it and bring Oats, Apple, and Fishy Sticks and put it on the rat's plate giving you the final fast travel point and completing Vermin Ties as well as the golden trophy The Streets Beneath.

Congrats! You now have all fast travel points leading to Discounty's parking lot!

It would be great if Discounty had a back door though, like most real life stores.
