How to Reach 14 Hearts with Shane
To unlock Shane’s 14 Heart Event, you’ll need to build your relationship with him up to 14 hearts. Starting from 0 hearts, you’ll first need to develop a friendship by giving him gifts she loves and interacting with him daily. Once your relationship reaches 10 hearts, you can propose to him using a Mermaid’s Pendant.
After marriage, you should be at 10 hearts. From there, continue to nurture your relationship by giving him favorite gifts to increase your hearts to the maximum of 14.
Shane’s Favorite Gifts
To unlock Shane’s new 14 Heart Event in Stardew Valley, you’ll first need to reach 14 hearts in your relationship with him. If you’re already married to Shane, you should be around 10 hearts. To quickly increase his heart level, give him any of the following favorite items:
- Beer
- Hot Pepper
- Pepper Poppers
- Pizza
Continue giving these gifts until you reach 14 hearts to unlock the ability to do the special event with Shane.
Shane 14-Heart Event
To unlock Shane’s 14 Heart Event in Stardew Valley, head into town with him when he goes out on Monday at 8:30 AM. As you enter town, you’ll trigger a cutscene where Shane stumbles out of the Stardrop Saloon after heavy drinking. Both Marnie and Jas witness this and suggest you talk to him the next time he leaves the saloon.
The next day, return to town to trigger another cutscene. This time, you confront Shane about his drinking, but he denies it and angrily walks away.
On the third day, enter town again to trigger the final cutscene. You and Marnie confront Shane in the saloon, where he isn’t drinking but playing arcade games. Shane will ask why you didn’t believe him, and you can choose between two responses:
- “I’m sorry, I should’ve believed you.”
- “I was worried!”
