Last thing being
You'd prefer it being a situational weapon or a fully realized standalone weapon ?
Like a battle-ax or atgeir

brave plume
#

i do like that different weapons come in more useful for different situations, so i'm okay with it not being an all-in-one

crimson inlet
#

Interesting
Although it seems only the sledge is situational

#

I can't think of any other

brave plume
#

spear's situational as well

#

as well as crossbow, i'd say

crimson inlet
#

A lot of people swear by the spear

brave plume
#

spear is dope, but it can't be used for everything

crimson inlet
brave plume
#

4 of the bosses in the game only resist pierce for physical damage, so you get your damage halved by using a spear in those cases

Does it? πŸ‘€
I didn’t remember staggering things I hit

#

I’m gonna have to go hit stuff 🀣

frosty walrus
modest moth
#

Precisely.

With 145, and twice of it as stagger, only the strongest enemies can't be staggered, but that's to be expected.

#

It also does it in a very wide aoe

mystic sequoia
#

are spears and atgeirs worth getting into? ive never used either....

modest moth
#

Atgeirs yes, spears more or less

mystic sequoia
#

what are atgeirs useful for? is it like an aoe sweep thing?

How was the mistlands changed before release? I really liked the map

For me it isπŸ™‚So I don't throw it

#

I thing the issue is bow needs 40+ skill to become really good. And there is no time to level it up on speedrun

mystic sequoia
#

ohhhh icic

neat moth
#

bows are super easy to grind though if you made a trainer for it

#

best way to do it is to place an elevated platform high above bonemass, and shoot low stamina arrows at him

neat moth
tired harness
#

Platform?

#

Multiple Crude Bows + couple hundred wood arrows.
Farm stats.

neat moth
# tired harness Platform?

with low stamina it shoots directly down to bonemass, and since bows xp is depending on the amount that you hit

mystic sequoia
tired harness
#

No platform needed πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

neat moth
#

since you don't realy need to aim

mystic sequoia
neat moth
#

so crude arrows + wood arrows is the best, just keep shooting while on top of him

tired harness
neat moth
#

once he's lowhealth you just, leave and do something else until he regens

#

or if you did do swamp, you should have enough bones to just do bonemass again

mystic sequoia
#

is it even possible to kill bonemass with just arrows?

neat moth
#

yes

tired harness
#

I mean, just kill. You get hundreds of withered bones really easily, so resummon is faster/not an issue.

neat moth
#

maybe after like 500 arrows

mystic sequoia
#

mmm icic

neat moth
#

also, fun fact

#

having rested buff increases xp gain by 50%

#

so you deffo want rested buff if you're doing trainers for xp

mystic sequoia
#

oooo okok makes sense

#

are there like, general guidelines for what level you should be at when u enter specifc biomes

tired harness
#

The game doesn't have levels.

#

You as a player are always just... you.

neat moth
#

obviously it matters a lot, but it's not a benchmark

tired harness
#

Skill levels are truly just bonuses, yeah. They game isn't balanced around you having skills of any amount.

neat moth
#

because ashlands is mostly a dps race

tired harness

No skill needed. Only Demolisher. 😁

when can we expect ashlands repair after or before the deep north

tired harness

brave plume
# marsh sentinel I play regularly with 7, thanks.

you're delusional, my friend. it's clear to anybody who plays this game with others how much network lag there is, and it happens even when you're a few hundred miles apart or less. it's not a good experience, unless you're all 7 on LAN.

#

given host negotiation often desyncs the entire game for like 5 seconds or so

marsh sentinel
#

We live in different counties, so jog on.

brave plume
# marsh sentinel We live in different counties, so jog on.

i refuse to believe that you guys are all playing together in-game and not ever experiencing lag, because i've never seen it happen. yes, if you're all playing separately in the server and you're alone, you don't get affected, but as soon as a host takes the role and somebody is unable to flawlessly communicate over the network, things desync and there's clear delay in any action.

marsh sentinel
#

So your first hand experience is valid but mine isn't? Weird take.

brave plume
#

not at all? i think we both are coming with personal first hand experiences that differ at the moment

marsh sentinel
#

We get lag, sure. Never said we didn't, but that's in areas of high instance counts, not network related.

#

Ok, sure, again, only your experience counts.

vivid field
#

I mean.. there's a noticeable amount of lag without hardly any instances, but it generally can be adjusted for

the networking in this game is far from ideal, but it's serviceable

It sounds like you're choosing to carry more things than you need to and instead of rectifying that, you're saying it is the dev's problem and they should change their entire game based on your personal choices πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

craggy holly
tired harness
#

See previous about choosing to carry stuff you don't need to.

outer junco
#

we all have similar hotbars, very cool

craggy holly
#

the devs have said they want inv management and decision making be a part of the game, they don't want us to be able to always take absolutely everything with us and pick up anything, and I am with them on that, it makes it less boring and feel less grindy because you need to decide what is important to you

#

and oh dear is it a challenge in Ashlands haha

outer junco
#

man im so excited to get to ashlands

#

me and my friends got to plains real fast this co op but then they got busy, so now ive started a solo to go play it lol

#

i havent heard too much of peoples opinions on it yet, what do u guys think about ashlands

craggy holly
#

I'm on my 10th play through xD

outer junco
#

idk which one im on, i recently deleted a bunch of really old worlds but this is prolly my 5th or 6th long playthrough

#

i wanna get better at the game and do the kinda stuff threadmenace does, its so cool to watch him play

craggy holly
#

Ashlands are great imo, maybe a little less intricate then Mistlands in some way but the atmosphere is nice, haven't tested the newest changes to it yet on the PTB

craggy holly
outer junco
#

he has a lot of playlists, some hardcore, some doing ashlands prep, he does a lot of speedrunning stuff

#

he doesnt talk too much but his gameplay is always something else

#

and theyre all unedited, so many many hours of content

craggy holly
#

I do like a streamer that does talk a lot though, unedited is good, VOD etc. it does not need to be cut

#

I like the flow of unedited ones

outer junco
#

woops put that in the wrong chat, meant to put this here
but he def inspired me to play solo valheim and improve on my own mechanics, his videos are always really informative and you can learn some really cool stuff, like the way he kills trolls

craggy holly
outer junco
#

im closing in on 750, but id say like 100 are afk leaving the server open for friends, then another 630 doing co op

#

def have had it rougher in solo, but its nice to learn how to deal with big hordes of things when ur gear isnt the best instead of relying on co ops

#

also learning playing on normal difficulty was bad for me cuz im used to face tanking certain attacks and i cannot do that in hard....

craggy holly
#

mine is more skewed towards solo now, used to be almost 50:50

#

I only did one on hard, the rest is all normal, my preferred way of playing

#

my first queen kill was on hard

outer junco
#

i like to be stressed

#

i actually have not killed queen yet, we couldnt find her on our 1st mistlands playthrough

craggy holly
#

sometimes yes, but I also like having a character that has pickaxe skill at 97 now πŸ™‚ a new record for me

outer junco
#

but we just got yagluth last night and we found queen location before yagluth by sneaking into an infested mine a little early since a friend wasnt on and we were bored lol

craggy holly
#

brave going into mist without a light haha

outer junco
#

its very fun, staying full zoomed makes it mostly possible

#

little scary but if u cant kill yagluth cuz ur friend isnt on, its funny to get an arbalest and the dual wield knives before yagluth

craggy holly
#

got lucky with cores then

outer junco
#

the mine did have a ton of cores, i think like 7-8 spawns? but we are also playing on 1.5x since my friends are busier than they used to be

#

feels a tiny bit cheesy but it gets us to newer content faster after having done many playthroughs before

craggy holly
#

I only ever play with 1x (like the need for farming, and the accomplishment once you finally have what you need)

outer junco
#

yeah i get that, i feel a little shitty using 1.5x but time restraints suck

craggy holly
#

I don't want to build with no build cost or anything like that, I live for the achievement of having grinded all the materials myself, big part of the enjoyment for me (each to their own)

blazing lake

#

Warm your hands up first. That way they can't take as much energy transfer πŸ˜‰

umbral fog
#

that is why i said "if you punch fast enough" πŸ˜„

#

will be more effective while having "wet" status

blazing lake
# umbral fog i would say that short contact with the 2000Β° would also not be that bad exactly...

Leidenfrost effect relies on a substance vaporising and creating a thermal barrier. Such as water turning to steam, and tends to generally only apply to liquids because of that. Of course solids that can vaporise are also a consideration, but even if our viking is sweaty or wet enough to leidenfrost a few punches, I doubt it would prevent burns over the course of even 1 fisty cuffs encounter xD

Note also that there is a critical temperature at which the leidenfrost effect is the most effective (around 450 celcius) beyond which it becomes less effective until eventually the vapor layer cannot be sustained.

But you know, it's sorta irrelevant since it's a game I'm just a physics nerd.

crimson inlet

Hmm
I used to flick my finger across a candlelight as a kid

That's about like 500-1000 Β°C no?

I suppose if you really want to think about this
Temperature should not be considered that much

#

You can "safely" get singed by fires

umbral fog

true

crimson inlet

I think the thing to consider is
How long your fist is going to be there
How hot is the air around it
And if there are any embers that'll stick to your knuckle

Temperature is ABSOLUTELY incredibly important, within a small temperature range maybe not, but when it gets to beyond a few thousand degrees all bets are off regardless of leidenfrost as even the IR radiation is gonna do damage as you get close

#

Maybe the heat transfer is minimal
Maybe they're made out of bread

blazing lake
#

Aye, perhaps they don't actually contain much thermal energy and so as our fists collide they vaporise a couple of skin cells and cool off to safe temperatures because the energy density is super low, it's possible I suppose

crimson inlet
#

And from what I see
Their fires are not raging like thermite

#

They're like...
Regular fires

blazing lake
#

Thermite "rages" because it's rapidly and self sustaining oxidation reaction.

Temperature doesn't require the raging fire "looks" but I do agree they seem more flame-y

crimson inlet

I studied thermodynamics too but they never talked about surtlings before

It's an entirely new research

umbral fog

crimson inlet
#

The answer will be in the surtlings core for sure

proven dagger
#

Capture surtlings FOR SCIENCE!

crimson inlet
#

The surtlings are just cornstarch lit up by the core

blazing lake
#

Surtling cores being the basis of smelters furnaces and stuff indicates infinite energy, but then we also need fuel? So not sure xD maybe not? But if not then why are they a crafting requirement? Just a fire starter?

crimson inlet
blazing lake
#

Could be they are in the 500 degree range, so not enough to melt the metals. So we need good fuel to reach melting temps

crimson inlet
#

Ah see when they die they also drop coal

#

Maybe they go around picking up coal and feeding their cores

blazing lake
#

Mhmm not sure about that one, can't really rationalise it. Since if the core needs to be fed, we could just use fuel itself and don't need the cores.

But maybe wood/coal/combustible material.isnjust food for surtlings and the core just ignites it and so we stay on the "firestarter"?

crimson inlet
#

Could be
Since the surtling staff needs eitr to fire

#

But you have one loose end

#

Portals

#

Could be a pun, but I don't see it

umbral fog
blazing lake
# crimson inlet Portals

Mhmmm if portals are wormholes, then we could assume surtling cores "infinite" energy is used to help compress space and keep the wormhole stable.

Of course it's just magic, so our understanding of physics doesn't match 1-1

crimson inlet
#

How close can you stand next to a surtling before you can get set on fire?

#

Or can they not?

blazing lake
#

In game? No idea, would be worth measuring I suppose

umbral fog
#

you dont get set on fire just being close

crimson inlet
#

Ah

umbral fog
#

not even while punching them πŸ˜„ thats actually how this conversation started XD

blazing lake
#

I haven't fought surtlings in my world yet, still just building in meadows super chill like.

umbral fog
blazing lake
#

The next question becomes, if you kill surtlings with a bronze weapon do you destroy the material properties as the weapon heats up? XD

proven dagger
umbral fog
#

steel would be worse since there you depend on heat treatment to give it the properties you want

blazing lake
#

Even with bronze it would depend on the temp it reaches, but you're correct in the sense that annealing is the main problem and you do not want your cutting edge to anneal haha.

Steel/iron could withstand higher temperatures than bronze without issues, but if it hits a critical temp the whole thing gets ruined.

So we're back to how much thermal energy is transferred!

crimson inlet
#

I'd say hardly any

proven dagger
#

I can stand right next to a surtling and punch it and I don't get any burns.

crimson inlet
#

I feel that even if you cut through a surtling

The sword will not be that hot at all

umbral fog
#

it would certainly be warmer, but you would have to be slaying surtlings left and right to accumulate so much heat it would start messing with material properties of your weapon πŸ˜„

blazing lake
#

The rate of thermal energy transfer is given by (kAdT)/D where k is conductivity constant, A is the area of contact, dT is the difference in temperature and D is the thickness of the material being heated.

K is known for bronze (I don't know if offhand) and dT depends on the surtlings temperature.

Using SI units for all variables the answer comes out as watts, which is a measure of energy per second and could be used to calculate by how much a bronze sword would heat up πŸ˜›

umbral fog
#

bronze is pretty good thermal conductor iirc, so before reaching critical temperature at any given location lots of heat will be dissipated into rest of the object, in this case we are talking sword πŸ˜„ ( which is pretty thin so idk how much of an actual difference it will make)

crimson inlet
#

You're left with time being the biggest factor

umbral fog
#

hmm, ok so bronze is actually worse thermal conductor than i thought, or at least tin+copper bronze, if we would be talking aluminium bronze thats different story (tho still lower than i previously though) πŸ˜„

crimson inlet
#

Because the time of contact will be what
0.25s?
That might be generous too

#

Also, there will be a lot of variability
Grazing the surtling vs cutting through

#

Grazing it would be the point of contact so small

#

But still
Time is the biggest factor here

Fader was a huge dissapointment as a melee fight. The actual theme and fight itself are really cool but when it comes down to the mechanics as melee you're just constantly running from all the ground AoE he spams and then leaves pools of, which he always somehow positions himself to be on the opposite end to you, once you close the gap he spams the AoE again and its just a repeat of that, all while managing enough stamina to attack and dodge for the short amount of safe uptime you get. Feels like once again weakest point of the game is the understanding of good combat balance. Its otherwise probably the best boss fight so far, wanted to see it on Normal before I try it on my Very Hard mage build and I can see its gonna be 10x easier and a lot funner as a range build once again lol

crimson inlet
#

Fader was the only good combat part of Ashlands in my opinion

ancient tree
#

Taking every combat style into account I think its great, but playing as a ''heavy'' melee build it was really awful

crimson inlet
#

What's heavy melee

ancient tree
#

Like I can already tell its gonna be significantly easier on very hard as mage

#

Heavy armor + Ashen cape, I use 2h sword as well but ide say heavy armor and cape

#

Its possibly the weakest melee set up but i just play what i think it coolest on normal

crimson inlet
#

I was a mage and I still went in with 2h sword and didn't really encounter issues

The only issue I found was once I ran out of fire resistb

ancient tree
#

Well in my experience I was a complete slow moving melee set up and I found that I barely got any chances for melee uptime with all the AoE/Pools he would spam and leave behind

#

The actual difficulty and theme of the fight was great I just felt like I couldnt really play it because the whole time I was running around, trying to gap close and manage stamina

#

on mage its just gonna be zoom around in the speed cape while spamming trolls and vines

#

If his AI made it so he would actively try to prio gap closing me, and not spamming so much AoE and Pool that make me constantly need to run away

#

it would of been really good

Also morgen's slap attacks deal pierce instead of blunt or slash.

World is same size, you do not have to restart.
Though it is recommended on "biome added" updates as they sometime change the world generator code.

How does that work? Does it just change some biomes in the existing world to fit the new ones?

Uh, like when they added Ashlands.

Certain hills/mountains stop existing or got generated differently.

cuz it turns out spear has ass hitboxes and shit range and are completely useless on slopes while a crapton of enemies are resistant to pierce

for me, the main issue with ashlands is audio and game rendering hitching in the middle of fights where we have valks + 1* asksvin on us. game freezes, the moment it unfreezes im dead by a combo of hits or by being launched into lava

It is in Early Access.

#

It's a bit of a Minecraft situation where the game is not technically officially released for many years, though in Minecraft's case it was an even longer duration

#

This has the benefit of keeping the game relatively cheap, it's likely to be a bit more expensive when fully finished and properly launched

marsh sentinel
#

I can't imagine the price will change.

Guys... I upgraded my GPU from 1060 to 3070, am I doing something wrong that I'm still getting 15 fps in base (~15k instances)?!

#

valheim aint particularly gpu heavy tbh

mystic whale
#

shoit, so should I change it to the CPU (in the manager)?

mystic whale
umbral fog
#

valhiem is really more CPU heavy i believe

mystic whale
#

changing the hmdi to the mother-board would do then?

tired fossil
#

there's also the boot.config file edits which help fps, and for me exclusive fullscreen mode using f5 added like 20 fps

It helped, increased around 10 fps, tho. Mine is a i5 9600k.

ok, so here is the thing: thats a relict of the ps3 and somewhat the ps4 era
games were generally developed for consoles, which had low cpu power
by extension even fairly bad cpus could manage
gen 5 consoles are more similar to pcs, and have stronger cpus
and thus newer games dont have such an extreme disparity between cpu and gpu usage
on top of that valheim simply isnt a gpu heavy game
usually your fps drop due to entity lag, and thats on the cpu

the now removed one, yes

# mystic whale It helped, increased around 10 fps, tho. Mine is a i5 9600k.

Good, 10fps is a nice improvement even if you hoped for more. But there's more to try. Add these two lines to the boot.config:

gc-max-time-slice=10
job-worker-count=7

Only, for job worker count, the number you use will be the threads your cpu has minus one. So mine has 8, so I put 7. I suppose you could also put a number higher than 10 for the "slice=" part but 10 worked for me so I stuck with it.

mystic whale
#

Correct if I'm wrong, but most of the lag is due to the CPU Checking stability status every other second for each block in the game?! (plus other stuff oc)

the two I just referenced can be the last lines below the rest

mystic whale
#

I euthanized many of my wolves, and killed all my chickens, it helped a bit. But if not stability-wise, how come the fps drops that much?

tired fossil
#

everytime you start the game though you will have to press F5, type "exclusivefullscreen" and hit enter for the fullscreen fps boost to activate

mystic whale

Ive been having fps issues too. I have an intel and geforce gpu, but i think valheim immediately defaults to using my intel gpu. I tried everything to default to the geforce one, but none of it worked. The only option was to disable the intel gpu and that was a risk i wasnt willing to take lol.

#

If u figure out a way to fix your fps pls lmk

vivid field
mystic sequoia
#

Im on a laptop so... uh both ? Im not sure

obsidian creek
#

unless you have an MUX switch

mystic whale
#

Well, it seems more stable at 20 fps now, oscillating to 40, but much better than the 12-15 from before

tired fossil
#

and you used the debug console upon entering the game right?

mystic whale
#

forgot that... wait a minute

#

Still around 20. That's ok. much better still. Thanks man o/

tired fossil
#

in any case, at least you got some improvement. Depending how big your base is, youll always get fps drops there even on good hardware when running around a large complex

vivid field
tired fossil
#

oh, and check if you have hardware accelerated gpu scheduling enabled. That may help as well

mystic whale
tired fossil
#

oh, and put shadows on medium

#

just putting shadows on medium ive me huge fps boost. Though I have a weaker system than yours

#

game still looks good with medium shadows

mystic whale
#

not sure if it influences, but my monitor is ultrawide, resolution is not a problem right?

tired fossil
#

not sure, I play on 1080p

#

but higher resolutions is a gpu thing and i think you said you had a really good one so it shouldnt matter

mystic whale
#

I don't mind graphics xD I'll reduce them tho.

tired fossil
#

dont have to reduce all of them, for me shadows was the biggest hit. Putting shadows on medium gave me +20fps

mystic whale
#

I'll try to find a in between xD

tired fossil
#

turn off chromatic aberration, depth of field, and motion blur as well

mystic whale
#

How come the "using a single core" helps? i'm to try it now

tired fossil
#

everything else had no impact for me so I left them at the highest

shut bloom
#

hi

tired fossil
#

but try it to see I guess

mystic whale
#

worsened by a ton hehehe

vivid field
mystic whale
#

I removed a lot of my standing torches as well, just "wasted" material... and it helped too

vivid field
#

you might as well try setting your graphics settings to minimum, and then slowly enable things until you find something that significantly impacts performance

#

number of point lights and shadows are generally pretty taxing

#

but other things can be as well

mystic whale
#

seems that it varies little, and I found a stable settings that maintain more of those 20 fps. Thank you guys o/ (still on 20fps tho. Near my base that is)

Good afternoon everybody. My brother has a world where we play together. In the last few days, I can no longer connect to his world, nor can he connect to other worlds. I tried entering more worlds of other friends and it worked. But my brother can't access any world anymore. it already uses the "Open Server" and "Cross Server" function, even so, we were unable to enter. It only fails to connect. Does anybody know how to solve this?

hello, i'm new to the modding of valheim. After the new patch of ashlands i really wanted to get back and have fun with few of my friends. I got a question. If i download like 30+ mods and they work on 'community server - non dedicated' when im alone there, will my friends have to download all of them too ?

Depends on how you want to use it

For dps go blue, for crowd control go green and red for doing more damage the closer you are to dying

# strange musk What bow upgrade is the best

I think iolite for fast hitting weapons like the axes, the single hand sword etc. the jade is great on bows and maces, things you want to keep distance with. And the bloodstone I honestly just use for making staffs and upgrades, I don’t rly see a big use for putting them on your weapons.

I am so happy to learn that some of the skeletton summons are females
Gertrud was a good girl.

# strange musk What bow upgrade is the best

For my ranged build I’ve gone :

  • Storm Fang (iolite bow) for ranged DPS (primary)
  • Root Ripper (jade crossbow) for ranged support (secondary 1)
  • Bleeding Berserkir (bloodstone axes) for emergency melee (secondary 2)

And, Ask set, to maintain stamina.

From what I've seen I assume not.

There is a ruin in my outpost with a vegvisir on the last floor that refuses to dismantle no matter how much time it passes.

I assume vegvisirs and runestones belong to the same group, not even devcommands can remove them. In the best-case scenario, maybe the vegvisir will just stay floating

What I’ve seen is the central tower of a fortress floating. The vegvisir, in that case, being on the ground.
