All multi-season Insects and where to find them in Fields of Mistria

Catch those creepy crawlies

Bugs seem to be everywhere you turn in Fields of Mistria. No, I’m not talking about the development variety, I mean the tiny creatures with six (or more) legs that crawl, fly, and flap around the town ready to be caught using the Bug Net.

As part of the first major update on November 18, a few new collections were added to the Museum and one of them requires you to gather up bugs that spawn in more than one season. There are a fair few of these multi-season insects to work through, and it can be a little overwhelming trying to figure out which spawns when.

There are two different types of inter-seasonal bugs in Fields of Mistria – those that spawn all year round, and those that can spawn in any season other than Winter. There are also Mines bugs, which are also multi-season, as the weather doesn’t quite penetrate below the ground. 

Bugs in Fields of Mistria also have specific time and weather restraints to think about. If you’re confused, don’t worry, here’s all the bugs you need to consider if you’re trying to fill out the Multi-Season Insects collection at the Museum. 

Year round bugs

The following bugs can spawn during any season, and most don’t have any specific spawn conditions. The Fuzzy Moth is an outsider here, and is slightly harder to catch than any of the other bugs that can be caught at any time. For the most part, if you want to catch these bugs, you’ll need to spend a lot of time at the Beach south of Sweetwater Farm.

Spring, Summer, and Fall bugs

These bugs are apparently not hardy enough to brave the cold of the Winter months like their Beach loving cousins, and you’ll mostly find them in the center of Mistria and the surrounding areas.

The Speedy Snail could also be considered a Spring, Summer, and Fall bug as it can spawn in any season. However, as it is a Legendary Bug, it is infuriatingly hard to find and belongs to the Legendary Insect collection at the Museum.

Bugs in the Mines

While bugs found within the Mines have their own collections at the Museum, it’s worth including them here as they are technically all-season bugs. They don’t have to worry about the rain, cold, or how windy it happens to be, so they can live their best lives down in the dark.
