Quick Links
Fields of Mistriaoffers a variety of gameplay mechanics for its players from fishing to insect collecting. Much like fish and forage items, the appearance of insects inFields of Mistriais influenced by the season and the time of day. This can make bug gathering tedious and frustrating if you’ve missed the appropriate season. You’ll likely find common insects such as caterpillars and ants just about anywhere. However, rare species such as the Luna Moth, will require patience. The Luna Moth is part of the Spring Insect Set, so you’ll need to get it if you’re filling out the Insects Wing at the museum.
How to Get Luna Moth
Tips for Catching Luna Moth
You can catch Luna Moths inSpringduringnighttime. InFields of Mistria, nighttime starts at8:00pm. If you’re only focused on getting the Luna Moth, then you canspeed up timeby using theMillto fast-forward to 8pm. Search for the Luna Moth atyour farmor inThe Western Ruins. If you don’t see any, thenenter your house (farm)/leave the area (ruins), then return to the farm/ruins to refresh the area. The Luna Moth has light green wings and a yellow body, meaning it mayblend in with the surroundingsif you’re not looking close enough. Fortunately, you can adjust the In-Game Screen Display to make your search easier.
You may want to wait for the Luna Moth in Year 2. During Year 1, you’ll be busy setting up your barn and doing story quests to unlock features around town, such as upgrading the store. By Year 2, you should be more familiar withMistriaand have more time to work on collections.
How to Set In-Game Screen Display
You’ll want to set your In-Game Screen to1x, so here’s how to do just that:
While in 1x mode, you’ll be able to see more of your surroundings. However, keep in mind that as a result of zooming out,the character sprites will be smaller. Fortunately, the Luna Moth flies back and forth, so you should still be able to find it. If you’re struggling with 1x view, then you may switch it to 2x instead. Playing outside 3x mode means you won’t have to physically run to every corner of the landmark to see what’s there. When you’ve caught the Luna Moth, you can adjust your settings back to normal.

How to Donate
The Luna Moth can be donated to the Museum in The Narrows. It’s part of the Spring Insect Set along with the Butterfly, Caterpillar, Roly Poly, and Ladybug. Depending on how many wings you’ve completed, the rewards for donating the entire Spring Insect Set will vary. Alternatively, you can sell the Luna Moth for 20 Tesserae, but given its rarity, this is not recommended. You can give the Luna Moth as a gift, but it’s considereda universally disliked giftby everyone (except Luc), meaning you won’t be getting any affection points.
