“EVEN DESERTS ARE NOT SAFE FROM WATER”

–WX-78

The Lake is a feature exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in A New Reign. It is a large body of water that spawns in its own Desert Set Piece called the Oasis.

During any Season other than Summer, the Lake will be dry and unusable. The players can walk over it during this time.

During Summer, the Lake will fill up with water and there is an option to fish in them. Using a Fishing Rod, Fish and Crumpled Packages can be caught at any time of Day. Similar to its smaller counterpart, Ponds, it has a limit on Fish or Packages. There are 10 Fish or Packages, and one more will be added into the pond every 160 seconds if the current count is less than ten. The chance of getting a Fish is 40%, and getting a Package is 60%.

There are 3 Fireflies on the Lake. They are not catchable while the Lake is full of water.

Tips

Making a small outpost near the Oasis can be beneficial as players will be staying at the Lake for long periods of time to fish out the various rare Blueprints only obtainable through Crumpled Packages, which are only obtainable through the Lake.
Building a base around the oasis area is also a good idea in general, because wildfires do not spawn there, and it is cooler, making Overheating easier to manage.

Trivia

The Lake was added in the Against The Grain update.
