Focus: Spring 1 Year 3, Grandpa's Shrine, four candles, and 21 available points
Checklist: Check Grandpa's Shrine in the far northwest corner of the farm before Year 3. Treat 12 points as the practical target, not every available point. Use the shrine after four candles are lit to claim the Statue Of Perfection.
