Dead Rainbow Jellyfish is a Fish Food Item introduced in the Shipwrecked DLC. It can be obtained by murdering Rainbow Jellyfish. It can be dried on a Drying Rack to obtain Dried Jellyfish. Eating a Dead Rainbow Jellyfish will make the character glow and give off colored light similar to that of a Rainbow Jellyfish. This glowing effect becomes visibly weaker as time goes on, and only lasts around 2 minutes.

Cooked Rainbow Jellyfish is a Fish Food Item made by cooking Dead Rainbow Jellyfish on a Campfire, Fire Pit, Star, Chiminea, or Obsidian Fire Pit. It cannot be used as an ingredient in a Crock Pot. Unlike its raw counterpart, eating Cooked Rainbow Jellyfish will not make the player glow.

Prototype Tips[]

  • During mid Dry Season, one can eat Dead Rainbow Jellyfish to stay safe from Charlie during the whole night, as nights are shorter during that Season.
  • Some Mobs, such as Wildbores and Spiders, will also glow after eating a Dead Rainbow Jellyfish.
  • With or without the glowing effect, killing and eating Rainbow Jellyfish in the early game is very useful as Rainbow Jellyfish will not sting the player when attacked like normal Jellyfish.

Placeholder Trivia[]

  • Rainbow Jellyfish were added to the Shipwrecked DLC more than a year after its official completion in the Home Sea Home update, after being tested in a beta branch for several months.
