Same. I found Plains easier to manage than Swamp or Mountain. Intuitively, I imagine that's a result of the previous biomes having impediments (i.e. 'wet', and 'freezing', respectively), and also general visibility/mobility.
From hardest to easiest I would say: swamp, mistlands, mountains, plains, (haven’t played Ashlands yet)
for first encounter ?
This game needs more cool weapons early on
Let's end the debate, what's better - Plains or Meadows?
( for a base )
okkey
Medows, plains is dangerous, just set up a base for farming but don’t live there
I mean first encounter of plains I got killed by deathsquito
meadows
LJABJASKLDGAŞKHSDGŞASIDŞAHDŞADHS
Leave your weapons outside at night. When you get up in the morning, they'll definitely be cool.
i think everybody gona accept swamp is the one of the worst biomes to make a base
I want that shotgun weapon my friend has 😢
There's a debate? I think the unilateral opinion is Meadows for your first main base.
its a magic stuff
Ye, i guess it's end game tho
its litteraly 7th biome weapon
What's the glowing bow called? it looks kinda cool i think
Which one? Draugr Fang?
I think plains is beautiful and awesome for a main base. Only annoying part is wandering goblin groups. The huge areas of open land make it very easy to build on.
What are the main pros and cons?
I like the plains myself. Infinite black metal and you can grow everything but mistlands crops. And I enjoy going on lox hunting trips lol
nuh uh i am gona keep using my flame arrows untildi end
So, it's fun, beatiful, efficient and dangerous?
Also easy source of arrows
i litteraly killed the queen withusing flame arrows
Meadows has virtually no threats to your safety, plains has a lot of creatures that can kill you pretty fast even later game. Besides that the plains is a lot easier to build in, and makes you feel like you are in Greece.
Yeah i'm scared of plains still, mountains aren't that bad i don't really care about freezing, there are meads and capes.
But not talking bout good location
I really like the way black metal is done, you always passively accumulate it just by existing in the plains and killing enemies, but there’s also ways to get large amounts of it from fuling camps
Mountains would be my favorite biome to build in if drakes didn’t exist
That's what i was thinking of, there is no good way of protecting against them
+1
They don’t even really do damage to me anymore but they are just so annoying
Is black metal great?
Yes?
Black metal is the plains tier metal
my favorite mtal in the game after 7th biomes metal
"meadows has virtually not threats to your safety"
It's technically the most dangerous biome by the time you reach the current end
It’s only dangerous at night though
That statement would only be true if you never killed bosses
I have a question, so obviously diffrent armor works worse and better in diffrent biomes.
Does that rule apply to tools?
didnt you ever get one hit by a deathsquito
Ashlands is less safe because there’s more of the strong enemies
Doesn't really change much
No
oh you wrote meadows
Go and punch them 😄
.
i thougt plains
Kind of. There is a progression order for tools.
not talking about weapons, just basic tools - axe, pickaxe stuff like that
With tools, the latest one is always best
Ie: you can use a black metal pickaxe on anything, but the bronze pickaxe is only good up to iron.
nicee
If you're asking whether a tree in the meadows is "cheaper" to cut down than a tree in the plains, then no. The cost of tools is only related to ~~your stamina and ~~the skill level you have.
but if you are not speed playing i would recomend having a better tool saves a lot time
you can use you flint axe tho if you want :d
I mean, I assume that everyone understands that an upgraded item is more effective. But, the same item does not become more difficult to manage based on the biome.
but dont forget to some items couldnt do the job of some higher levels can do
like you cant cut some kind of trees with weaker axes than brone axe
or some ores can not be mined with a weaker pickaxe than a iron pickaxe
btw what you use for each biome
example i use maces until bonemass after bonemass fight i use atgeir and sword
A whatttttt
U lil piece of
Ashlands lightning shotgun
Wowwwww
On my way to ashlands
How to get it when I reach there though
Bloodstone from fortresses, a little flametal, and celestial feathers from valkeries
It’s called the dundr
Oh so no need to kill any bosses right?
you cant go there
with out kill 6th boss
or hack or dev commands
You can get there without killing that boss but it’ll be a lot more dangerous
you need the 4th Boss to smelt flametal
i dont think he would have the patiance for that
Sad 😭
Sameee
I can but I will have to leave my progress
oh never mind i found some thing called servers and lfg
Lfg?
i dont know what is lfg too i just see some people looking for another players to play together
Looking For Group.
he was explaining jsdbkajşsdaşkdaşkdjşaşd
Should I try to fight Bonemass even when I only ever used spear and dagger? My club-skill is 0
please use mace for gods sake
Yes, the mace deals 1.5x damage to him so you’ll be fine, even at level 0 clubs
Should I go for the mace longterm?
maybe slash damage is okkey to go with but no spear you hit nearly zero damage with arrows and spears
Only if you like the playstyle. You can switch back immediately after the fight
you can go mace long term but swords better after bonemass
The knife also deals 50% pierce, so it's half useless against bonemass. I like my weapons, but I feel like it's completly useless against Bonemass
Frostner is really strong if you prefer the more defensive style with slows and KB
I'll make iron mace?
My last weapon was bronze atgeir
why
Bonemass takes 50% damage from slash and 25% damage from pierce (150% from blunt)
So less for noobs and more just generally strong and easy to use
Which iron weapon should I use???
It seems like Bonemass is the perfect counter against my Dagger/Spear-Character. At least I have my iron armor, poison potions, healing mead and serpent-soup/filets
Mace for bonemass and blobs, sword for abominations. I usually make the mace and use axe for abominations
The knife that you get from the leviathan-shell
Hi
Hello
Ohh, how about my iron axe, might that be my best option against Bonemass?
No, he resists slash (which is what axes deal) and is weak to blunt
,
Where is this leviathan boi
Ok so axe is dual purpose
Oh you have to find it
Where is it generally
It randomly spawns in the ocean
He’s in the ocean, it looks like a big rock with barnacles
Mine the barnacles to get stuff
Would you even recomend the mace if I have 0 skill?
Yes, he takes more damage from maces and less from everything else
You can try to earn skills for the mace by killing a lot of 💀, they're weak to blunt
Huh, ghost ping.
live ping
technically beneficial to hit things that aren't weak to blunt, since that would allow you to hit them more often before they die = more XP.
(but if you just wanna get as many XP as you can without wasting additional time, that is a good strat)
Should I bother upgrading iron tools?
imo no, but everyone tends to have their own opinion there 😅
iron (as a resource) remains pretty relevant throughout almost the whole rest of the game, while its most efficient source is always gonna be swamp crypts, so it gets a little repetitive eventually
So I can defeat the boss with lvl 1 mace?
bosses are balanced around level 1 gear of their respective biome, yes
(and personally i fight bonemass with 2 wooden clubs these days, it's absolutely doable damage-wise)
Level 1 mace level 0 clubs skill, yes you can (not even bad damage)
i meant like, two actual just wooden clubs because the durability of one isn't enough. i don't cheese the fight, it's way too easy compared to later fights already imo 
i don't know why i haven't considered a silver pickaxe. i have plenty of extra silver sitting around, and there's always digging to do
How do I get that
There's a silver pickaxe?
if there's not, that explains why i never considered it lol
and you're right, there isn't one
lol
i guess the iron pickaxe is worth upgrading, since even the black metal pickaxe is technically a mistlands tool, not plains
if you wanna save time while mining at least
No
guys i had a lot of ping when trying to play with someone
yeah, you need mistlands wood. a little tempted to upgrade iron pickaxe
recomended vpn ?
i dont thinka vpn will make your ping better
ı dont think so too but they said they are from south america ı am in turkey
maybe connecting to south america will solve it
ping problems can mostly be solved by playing with someone either in your own country if your countries internet aint shit or play through a dedicated server i guess?
okkey thanks
it can also tarffic you trough less, depending on the service
i tried a one but didnt work
The VPN I use tells me how much load is on the server and what city, so I use that to help guide where I connect when using it.
Why does mining iron have to look like sewer cleaning
Because it is not a vein, but (what I assume to be) slime poop💩 considering what is inside it. And the crypts kinda look like what most people would guess a sewer looks like.
Fr
I wouldn't be surprised if they were designed to be sewers for the draugr before they were struck down.
Hey so the more iron I mine the more the water level increases in the crypt or what
no
I found a really large crypt
Hey can you get 2 eggs from the sealed tower?
Seed and coord?
Love setting up large dungeons for custom quests
I'm new so idk if it's that large but got like 3and half stacks of iron scrap
There should be 2 in a chest just past the mini boss at the bottom, yes.
Yeah, the Bonemass fight sucks as you are forced to to use the iron mace and nothing else. Usually there are many options, but not with Bonemass
I just tried it and even tough I was able to keep my health up no problem and parry, I barly do any damage with any weapon. Now I have to make and upgrade a mace, a weapon which I never use
Hey so if I start playing in another server what do I keep with my character?
Or new everything
Your character would be exactly the same if brought to another world
So I get all the lvl buffs?
Skills?
Yes
You keep everything
What about inventory?
You keep everything
You should watch out, others can steal from you if you die and also there's an option for team killing.
Mak sure you trust the people you're playing with lmao.
Oh, that doesn't necessarily indicate the size of the dungeon, but that is a decent and fairly average haul from one dungeon
I think "decent" is a bit of a understatement
imo
Yeah, I'd say 90ish give or take is about average.
I am aware that most people here consider 3 to 5 stacks to be "middle". 1 to 2 or not uncommon, but 6+ is rare
WHAT!?!?!?!
wait how much is one stack, i don't think i'm correct if you're saying the truth
30 innit
yea its 30 iirc
30 oiled dwarves
Never in my life I thought i would see valheim brainrot 💀
Waiter, waiter, one more Fuling please!!!
ayoo whattt
can i play the game on 2gb vram
guys can someone come to voice chat
draugrmaxxing
Derek seriously..
Anyone from Queensland?
Is that bad?

It's a simple play on words. No role-playing involved.
Hecc
Ok, I know I'm a pain in the arse but seriously.
go sleep
Guys, in the wolf armor set there is only trouser and chestplate?
There's the wolf cape and the drake helmet too
oh, i thought there was no helmet, alright
np
You might not have found the item yet that unlocks it
Are there any new/new-ish players on here that haven't gotten to the mountain or plains yet?
Hey guys, might not be the right place to ask but can anyone help with a Gportal issue I'm having? I've used them before and now i cannot get into the server. I've whitelisted and adminned myself, and followed the steps on the page but still cannot access it in game.
NVM i fixed it!
If I trapped a golem on the ground and built a workbench next to it, when I reset server, will it despawn?
No
is the ashlands the final biome or will there be more
one more is known, deep north
ok thanks
@tired harness my friend talked me into trying survival mode. so i made an altmer. it's like a totally different game.
I am on survival myself. It feels very different.
I am cheating in 1 aspect though.
Each level is +10 to all 3. Given the sheer amount that survival takes away (starting with -150 weight for no reason) I feel this is an acceptable compromise.
I'm on PC
So I just pick Stamina each time and then do player.modav for Health and Magicka.
gotcha
friend said he got on a carriage in windhelm trying to go to morthal and died of cold on the way. lolllll
I'm trying to decide if i want to go to riften or markarth first. markarth has the abandoned house, riften has thieves guild.. 🤔
Whiterun.
Because need to tell Jarl Balgruf to send soldiers to help Riften.
Due to the dragon attack at Helgen.
to...riverwood? just did that
but i don't really want to hang around whiterun for long this time.
Fair.
the helmet needs a trophy from a.... Drake
When I was getting off the game, i managed to kill one.
drake trophies arent too rare but they are as common as the others so congrats
Huh???
Is starting a server free in this game?
yes
you self host so if course it's free 🙂
Morning/afternoon/evening gjall 😄
☕
☕
normally it should be ctrl+F3 i believe
can you change it?
not sure
Barbeilm
XD
i heard a laugh..
man i hate tar slimes so much
If you find a tarpit near a fuling camp then the fulings and blobs will fight (and the blobs will usually win)
hey im trying to find a group to start a game with any takers?
Guess who's building the ugliest building ever known in Valheim history
is ita giant barn?
hola
why the plains so easy i thought it would be hard
Why?
wdym why
I thought it would be hard
Why?
Kinda 😭
I left in between and forgot what I had in mind exactly so it's really weird
Suffering from success
Unlike the swamp and mountains, plains doesn’t have any terrain or weather that make things difficult, it’s just the enemies. Because of that, it’s easy and consistent to run away from things or to fight them while only worrying about the timings
Yooooooo I sawww a ghost
ugh i think im getting sick 😦 and right near the end of winter too 😦
Who is the ghost ?????
where?
Meadows
also was it jsut standing menacingly llike stalker and watching you?
Near my base
Yeah ig
hmm best guess is a certain god that sent you to valheim to slay his enemies
It dissapeared as I ran to it
Odin?
yes
he is checking wether you are doing the work he sent you here for or if you slacking off doing anything but what you got sent here to do
Odin, I promise the 3 story mansion in the middle of the entire village I just finished making is very important to defeating the Forsaken.
it would be cool if we could go on the tree of life at the end of the game but last biome
is deep north so
you can make a suggestion 🙂 #suggestions
nah it wouldnt happen
dont forget the "💡" before it tho 😉
Last biome is secretly Asgard and you go up the tree to kill gods
nah, the gimmick of your "boss" secretly being evil and you fight them after you find out about it at the end is overused already
No, the gods aren’t evil, you’re just killing them for fun
oh, well... we could be crazy, i can imagine that 😄
I've always said it, we are the bad guys.
Last biome is Deep North, then we ascend to Valhalla.
is it just me or is the drop rate for drake trophies attrocious
It's 5% like most (if not all) trophies.
I think drakes just spawn less
just bad rng, i once couldnt get a golem trophy even after killing like 50 of them, they also have 5% iirc 🙂
stone golem?
That’s the only golem, yes
yep
idk havent gotten into ashlands lol
you need 2 drake trophies.......................
yep 😄
If you're anything like me you're going to want all those freeze glands anyway, so keep at it!
i just want a hot tub..
go to plains for a bit then 😄
oh wait i have one :D
welcome to the new world.
i kill 30 drakes and get one trophy, i kill 2 draugr and get one immediately..
That's just RNG though.
It can be that way 🙂 not much you can do about that, maybe turn up the drop rate for a bit? Not sure if that affects the trophies but i believe it should
nah it doesnt affect trophies, ive got it on 2x cause this is like my 4th time playing, just want to get to mistlands and ashlands
i got into mistlands never fought the boss though, or looked into the magic
olá
Yooooo I'll go wack Bonemass today
I play on max drop rate in my solo world. Because
Why not
cuz it clutters your inventory within seconds xd
you get a tonne of loot already even at the lowest setting above normal
yeah, cuz 1.5 doubles the drop for single drops
and most 0-stars drop 1 of x, aka its double loot
It does
But
WHY NOT
cuz you get too much loot anyway and fixing your inventory is annoying
I'm solo btw
even worse
you litterally kill one deer and get what 6 meat and leather?
whats the max drop multiplier even
Ok hear me out big Ice worms for high north
How about a picnic at the beach
wagwan
Does anyone have a reference where it says that Valheim devs are fine with mods behind behind a paywall?
There is that post on Facebook about a specific paid mod and there is a dude that keeps repeating that devs are fine with such a thing.
I personally doubt it's the case but would like some proof of it's the case.
i am quite certain that there is a statement from devs that exactly that they are against, i will try to find it
Thanks. The only info I could find was this message but it's a few months old already and, without surprise, they say they are against it.
#mods-discussion message
https://valheim.com/news/regarding-mods/ here, third and fourth articles
Thank you ❤️
Someone posted another article but from the same date and their reply was that "it's from 2023. A lot happened since then".
I got a question?
Haldor doesnt sell the dverger circlet, is there a certain requirement for him to sell that?
i dont think there should be 🤔
Yeah, we are almost done with mountains and still carry around a torch
are you using any mods by chance, they can often mess with all sorts of things
no, there isnt requirement like that
Man, i need that torch
i really dont know why you dont have it there, it should be availible basically from the point you find haldor
Best silver age weapons?
Ik , we found halder pretty late, like after exploring mountains , but still , idky it's not there
sword and frostner
What about bow
draugr fang
Yeah what about it
Is it good to have??
I was level 40 bow before moutains , then golems got me down to 28, i give up on leveling up bow now
yes, you want it, you will use it until mistlands
we are not fine with mods being behind paywall
Based
Mb bro. He's selling it now
Thank you! ❤️
Am bout to cry, 6th mountain and no boss location
Cry.
Then go to mountain 7.
Best to get the crying over with than try to fight a pack of wolves while on the verge of tears.
Is it usually this rare?or am i really unlucky
Hi guys, what should I prepare for the moder fight?
I have full mountain armor set, a mace and a shilver shield + Draugr Fang
what mace?
Sounds like you already prepared.
iron
then you are ready 🙂 if you had frostner you would have a bit of a hard time
nice, also what arrows do i need, and how many?
obsidian or needle if you can get them
Just got done with 7th, still no boss spawn
I don't know what's needle, but i do have obsidian
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
then you should be pretty much ready 🙂
Alright, then i'm just gonna get some wood and feathers i guess.
yep, 100-200 arrows will be more than enough even if you miss often 🙂
alr, thanks!
5 people streaming in one VC. Who's actually watching?
maybe they are watching each other 🙂
DEEP NORTH WHEN
You've already asked in another channel.
We don't know.
there is no set date for the blogs, they tend to be close to end of the month tho
unclear but don't think so
you're not alone; it happens with all sorts of things, and gets worse as you progress with flax and cores and gems etc.
my colds not gotten better
blowing my nose now gives mea huge headache untill i stop blowing my nose
i feel so miserable😭
Next blog post will be very blurry? ||unclear||
😉😁
Rest up, take paracetamol, eat easy to eat food. Get well soon.
Need that Cold Resistance Mead 💛
This is my expectation. Yes. 😁
Deep north when
When it's done
how many crypts on a map average or range anyone know?
many, i would say surely more than a hundred
The game tries to generate 175.
thats the answer I was looking for thank you very much
huh, when i look at some random seeds at world generator it seems pretty close to that, yeah
Good morning.
@quiet crater
This is not the place to promote your music
it probably should have gone in self promo section
Unless it's explicitly valheim content, then not really
Music based on the game qualifies for #fanart though
ah. the details.
That's where the devil always is~
It’s lame you can’t look up the valheim soundtrack
There’s a decent valheim sailing song on Apple Music though
Hypothetically, if I atted everyone, would I get banned?
Because there is like 140,000 people in this server.
Pretty sure you just can't
If it somehow went through though, then probably yes
Did you mean to say 'can't'? Iirc the soundtrack is in Spotify, and you can always buy it on Steam
Ok.
I did mean can’t but neither of those options let me listen to it on my phone without ads sadly
Steam would~
Does steam have a music app? Or saying buy it and put it into my library? Which I’ve tried with other stuff but Apple gets weird about it. They removed all of my third party stuff
Hm, I mean
Surely you have a way to transfer the audio files from your desktop to your phone, yes?
And play from there?
Cuz that's what Steam gives you, the files
That option is disabled for this server. Just like most big servers should have 🤔
I can yeah but I won’t be able to shuffle that into my other music without Apple Music getting weird. Really I’m just looking for valheim music to randomly surprise me when I’m working or in the shower or driving
Ah
Well, spose there's not much else to do there except wait for an apple music release
and now i have a sinus infection
awesome job to my immune system!
Shouldn’t but don’t - have had to leave a few due to that
Multiple at everyones a day pretty much
you know what happens 😄
mr @ people
That was accidental and you and I both know that
Morgen gjall!
I have a theory, anybody knows abt the hidden desert biome? Well i just watched a video where the non realesed ashlands looked like that just the ground was different and there were surtlings just like in the desert, so my theory is that u can somehow go to the world border and then somehow be able to go underwater and hope to find a desert, maybe not even in the border and like desert would be the last update
I very much doubt there is a hidden desert biome.
there isn't any "hidden" biomes
what they find is the infinite beach outside of the "world" circle that insta-kills you
Rhino horn to the rescue!
and we aren't going to add a "suprise" dessert biome either. it wouldn't make any kind of sence 😄
(and we don't had desserts up here in scandinavia)
we have a pretty big dessert here
You have lots of desserts, deserts on the other hand, not so much I think.
idk what the actuall spelling of deserts are
i keep mixng them up
Desserts is liked baked alaska, desert is sand or ice.
i know that now cause i just googled it but by the next time i use it i will have mixed them up again
(likly cause of my dyslexia)
I also have sexdaily.
I mean dyslexia.
I remember it by, I want more of desserts and less of deserts.
More ss's in the one I want more.
im sorry but why that first line lol
Pft
Mix up the letters of dyslexia and you get that.
Dyslexia is a neurological problem that affects reading and spelling so you might actually write dyslexia as sexdaily from time to time without knowing it ^^
I know I've done it a time or two and someone else had to mention it to me that I made a mistake.
that explains how many words ive been screwing up lately
took 2 edits to fix one word damnit!
I know the feeling and let's not get started about punctuation and capitals.
Watch a youtube video, there is
Nope: #general message
I've discovered a secret DESERT BIOME in Valheim! Check it out!

this is the one MA_AS is refearing to
the ue user is in both in god mode and also in flymode
hence the model is stuttering like crazy
I've seen it but that isn't a secret desert biome now is it?
the sea floor basicly
imagine the world as a 10500 meter circle side to side. and then you put a drape / cloth over it. that drape / cloth is the seabed
then we add things over it, and then the biomes
But maybe it will be in the ocean update because it has surtlings just like ashlands did before realease
no
I have no idea how a clearly not-biome hints at its own inclusion in an update that has 0 connection to deserts at all
people stare to deep into things trying to find the "hidden cow level"
Mornin gjall 😄
whats the command to spawn a single hen
"spawn hen"
not valid in current context
without the quotes?
yeah
do you have devcommands enabled?
check that, othervise i really dont know
yeah i managed to spawn it in. pretty tired of the stupid things escaping lol
The world 'outside' the map is endless. The further out you go the more glitchy it will get until it stops rendering anything or crashes. I don't know why but it's not some secret, it's been that way all along.
Hi guys, so while defeating moder my bow broke and my friend gave me arbalese, any idea if i can craft bolts for it or how?
oh noo, i need mistlands items...
well, i guess i will have to repair my draugr fang when i get back to the base then
Idk what was the point of giving you a mistlands range weapon without the means to use it...
It was beacuse my bow broke while killing moder
But i'm glad to have it.
🌞 its a comfortable 75°F/24°C just before sunrise. Can't wait to melt come 3pm.🫠 kinda wish IRL biomes worked more like game ones, or at the very least, nights cooled off properly(imo).
arent nights colder though already
If the night is around the 25 mark or more and the day is 5-10 degrees warmer it is too much.
Technically tundra is a desert…
True but that part isn't a biome.
Oh, I know.
its a cool 20-25 degress celsius ehre through out the day
You make me jelly with your 25c
Any idea when .17 will go live?
when it is ready 🙂
: (
we are reading feedback and stuff 😄
Cats can read? 👀
and write, plot murders and how to frame someone else for it and all while looking adorable and fluffy.
Guess sun tzu got a update to their book cover....
Do you guys ever have that time when u enjoy riding motor and suddenly u ride over a cow shit at 60km/hr and it splash on your shoe
Countryside road is sth in my county. It like mine field but a cow poop
No but I have goose poop splatter on my shoe when riding my bike.
Man that smell worse than cow
is 3rd lvl maximum for mistlands armor?
do i have to go to ashlands to upgrade it to max?
i dont get it
yes. 3 is max
🥺
what's the point of upgrading mistlands armor in ashlands where i can get a new one
You won't be able to for quite a while.
Because some gear from mistlands is still worth using throughout the whole of ashlands
And you use a new armor if you want to.
Nothing forces you into anything
hi guys what is the max comfort level
17-19, depends on how many seasonals you stack
i currently have 17 and have just got back onto the game from a 8month break
then thats max
ty
19 is technically the max but the last two are only through seasonal items that you can only build during those times
valheim
Is it normal hearing a constant humming sound in your ear when you have a cold
Not sure on humming. I have had the "under water" effect where all sounds were distorted. I have also had ringing/tinnitus.
no. go see a doctor about that
usually damaged eardrum
🥲
hows everyones day going?
I'm laying in bed now trying to sleep and I have this humming sound with a tiny bit of ringing/tinitus
Sleep well & that doesnt sound too good
I had that issue back in may...
Being a mouth beather is liiterally preventing me from sleeping due to a blocked and runny nose😭
oof at that point it may be time to pull out the drugs
Don't get addicted to nose drops
They're OP though
why valheim game is so popular now
As opposed to earlier? When it was just as popular?
It's never really stopped being popular.
The last time I caught covid I had tinnitus for about 6 months, should probably get tested just to be safe
in 2022 it was kinda forgotten
That is completely false.
You mean 2022 when Valheim won the Best Debut and Audience Awards a GDC? That year?
for sure
Yeah, so completely forgotten 😕
yeah
valheim is so peak
It made a big enough impact on the survival games market so that most people who play the genre know about Valheim, but its kept a pretty consistent core of players probably around 40-60kish
Even at it's lowest the game was averaging 13k players a month.
are u sure?
Yes.
To be fair, its not like its SUPER popular, but it definitely has a fan base
And that's just the ones we can easily count on Steam. Xbox numbers are far harder to gauge.
Xbox likely has similar or smaller numbers, but its not a big deal
All that really matters when judging a game is: "Did you enjoy it? Yes or no?"
Given the world we live in, there are also the questions of "Did it make enough money the developers will continue to develop and the publishers will publish more of this genre of game I enjoyed.?"
I doubt Coffee Stain are going to stop selling this type of game.
I'm not particularly versed in back-of-house for gaming. is coffee stain known for it's survival sandboxes?
Not especially, no. Their biggest titles so far are Deep Rock Galactic, Valheim and Goat Simulator
Honestly I don't think there's going to be a Valheim 2. Maybe, but I doubt it. IG will probably try their hand at something else I'd guess.
With how saturated the market is with survival games, I'm surprised that so few have even remotely tried to capture the scale of Valheim, which will always make Valheim an outlier
If I was them, I'd want to do something quite different now. Some of the team have been on this project for a LONG time.
not expecting a valheim 2. I don't even want to see "valheim but use Egyptian mythology." as a game. (Although they would probably be really awesome) I just want them to keep making great games.
although if Valheim2 was a thing i'd be cool to travel the worlds of the Ygdrassil Tree as your efforts have failed and the forsaken have made it onto the tree itself.
that hopefully wont happen if we do a good job in Valheim 1 XD
Well, Id imagine any game we see from them post Valheim is several years away. Id wager Valheim 1.0 will be Holiday Season 2025 or perhaps near the 5 year Anniversary in 2026, and then years of development after that before the next game is even hinted at
Morgen gjall.
no. we added more this year
14 total
you can see the entire staff list in the ingame credit list 🙂
having a partially blocked nose that is also burning with a lot of sneezes that cause my throat to hurt quite a bit and concentration thats on par with a racoons(ill call it franklin)
besides that great!
Rhino horn really helps against congested nose.
im taking linctagon and drinking acc 200 (not even sure if that'll even help)
I can say the same, past years.it will always be a top game for me, like the big names of the past, for example: Commander Keen or Monkey Island.
I play it again and again and again and again....only change the server
good morning! the bees are happy
Is this game fun solo?
oh yes 🙂 i play almost exclusively solo
Good to know 🙂
w
Since the game has alot of things built in to scale with the amount of player(s). it's not to unbalanced solo.
I also play alot of solo, but I take my character every now and then and visit my friends worlds to see what they have built. or fight a boss together with them.
feels like the game was balanced around solo tbh
multi feels way too easy at times
@lament vessel so I uh...
Used the console to kill and MarkForDelete the guy who incessantly screams about Talos in Whiterun...
Solo is the only way I play this game.
the only thing I find hard in solo is building large bases. I say "hard" its just takes a longer.
Increasing resource in solo is a must imo
Nah.
you saying I dont find bulding large bases hard?
I do, that's a fact my friend!
I think hes referring to 'increased resources as a must.' -I'm just happy its an option to change it
in my opinion to reduce the amount of time gathering
My thoughts exactly when I play solo
But I also play modded- I like the smoothbrain mods that let you get more loot to your respective resource-collecting skill
does anyone know if the PTB 0.218.17 is on live servers yet?
Huh? PTB is different to the live patch.
I mean are the changes from the PTB on the live patch yet or still only on PTB
#valheim-patchnotes is where any new updates will appear.
okay thank you!
it's because it is 🙂
Lel.
a singleplayer game balanced around singleplayer
who woulda thunk?
its also cooperative multiplayer
the older mh games also were scaled to 2+ players past a certain point xd
So is Valheim, up to 5 players.
you never played mh before Gen 5, didnt ya?
that was FORCED multiplayer scaling xd
I've never played any MH games, whatever those are.
so its just the usual you eh
And 3 players are scaled for 4 players 👀
That's not even old MH, World does that
Idk didn't read to be honest
Single player, 2-person and 3-4 person parties are different scalings
I just read MH
In the "older" games there was only one scaling
and "old" is anything younger than world
i dont know what MH is ugh, am i too young or too old for this convo?
Monster Hunter, the two most recent titles being World/Iceborne and Rise/Sunbreak
Wilds is on the horizon tho
playerbase has a large overlap with the souls community
soo... likely too old for that or well i guess i have no interest in mosnter hunter type games
too old? mate, those games released on like the PS2
PS2 is 24 years old
i remember playing games on the gamestation so its then due to my complete uncaring for monsterhunter games
its a very good game series
only beaten by soulsborne games imo
I kinda prefer it over soulsborne tbh
well idk what to say about that
matter of taste, i could see why you'd argue that
MH is more casual and nice
Soulsborne is sadistic
I love both equally
That's coming from someone that's admittedly only played World and a bit of Rise~
Rise and World are very different from the previous titles
that being said the general theme and gameplay is the same
Wilds will definitely be incredible
focus on hunting large boss enemies and personal skill
I am so excited for Wilds
The characters already look so cool
almost certainly, yes
They fixed the clutch claw
Love the new blacksmith
Or well, the softening mechanic
Softening was fun... Until it became the core gameplay
which only needed fixing cuz it was a bandaid for our lord and saviour WEx anyway kekw
Wilds has probably potential of reaching game of the year status
I can't imagine any game coming out to fight for that title
it will be my game of the year unless we get a surprise release
2025 can't come fast enough~
pft, true
for multiple reasons but also for this
it can take its time for me
You're missing out
I bet it'll be even more fun if wilds is your first mh
Sword and shield gang btw
mh is the only series which can fight the soulsborne curse xd
longsword abuser reporting in
Doot main here~
Longsword is good for dealing cringe type damage
Altho have y'all seen the new mount ability
One of the funnier lines I've heard
"Cringe damage"
Being able to carry a secondary weapon
I don't remember which video but it was about longsword
longsword is like the one ring: one dmg type to rule them all
what 20% raw mod does to a weapon
Sword and shield can do what every other weapon does, but better!
can it stunlock a daora like ls can?
sounds a lot like crap guide to mhw~
Yes! That must be it
Shitstaining pods 👌
I remember looking at chargeblade guide and it was that
And I got so hyped when he said it's worse than sword and shield
Decided to watch the sns guide and I was mindblown that he's as passionate about the weapon as me
lol! reasonable.
right now im putting off taking serana home, so i have two followers while i solidify my transit routes and control of the underworld.
Good to know 🙂 Thanks for the breakdown. Just want to know how doable it is solo.
Somethings will seem difficult or unbalanced until you figure out the attack patterns. Hardest part in the beginning is remembering to stay calm and manage stamina. Rested buff is largest benefit in the game and learning to manage stamina is the next 80% rest is just exploration and killing as mobs gain more health in each biome but the base concept of managing stamina never changes really.
Getting the other 2 parts of Whirlwind sprint because walking is for chumps.
I've done it multiple times from day 1 to kill the current end boss
whats your favorite aspect of the game? combat or basebuilding? like what makes it something you want to invest a lot of time into
like does the questing keep you on a straightforward path? I know nothing lol
Is this one of those "I am a college student collecting data for a research paper" things?
Hm.. Adventure and see what I can find 🤔
There are not "quests" just the next biome boss to defeat (other than Hild's quest which is just purely optional). Main thing is to decide what you like. Most love base building. It is enjoyable. I technically like to do challenges like first three bosses in 4 hours or less kind of thing. You can play it however you like at the speed you like and that is what is great about the game.
I've done tons of those already 😄
hahaha
no I just dont want to invest time into a game unless what the community finds interesting interests me lol
Why should how anyone else feels about a game affect how YOU feel about it.... at all?
an average area of interest usually is the highlight of a game lol
it keeps crashing when I go to load my world 😦
Basing your own enjoyment of something on how other people enjoy something is..........
I could never live life that way.
so you dont look at movie or book or game reviews?
No, lol.
Does it crash or just freeze? If it just stays on a black screen give it time the first loading can take five minutes or longer depending on your PC.
(not loading) error
don't click while it loads
If it is a windows error ignore it, it is still loading. Windows thinks there is an issue where there is not.
oo I might've been doing that lol
alot of people do that
or alt+tab out and then windows thinks you're not interested anymore 😄
Do new worlds also take extra long to load?
yes
it adds everything
1000000's of objects
only loads slowly on generation tho
so it's a one time thing
Okay I think that was it and I was clicking and being inpatient / alttabbing lol
It’s all good now thank you!
Thank you for the helpful breakdown !!! And thanks for the response @tardy vale
Thoughts and prayers to all those in east OH and west PA, stay safe out there. (red boxes are the tornado warnings)
I already have a friend out there who had a small tree fall on his house. thankfully it was very minor damage
Bad weather all around. Fires in Colorado, California and Canada. Hurricane on the east coast.
fires over here in Oregon as well.
Thankfully theres no major ones in NW Oregon, where im at
Similar boat then, but I'm in Colorado.
I started a new world when Ashlands launched and I just now beat the Queen for the first time.
👏Congrats, now the hardest part of the game, getting a foothold on the Ashland's shores.
should i buy velheim
100% yes
i want to but i feel like playing it solo would get old fast
you dont gotta play it solo im sure people here would be up for it
Ive put 100 hours in and I usually played solo
you know wat fuck it
Throw on some viking music, start playing the show vikings, and braid your hair for immersion
ONE OF US
The game might stop responding when you generate a world. Leave it for a few minutes, and don’t click anything when this happens. It will only happen once per world, after this the loading times will be faster.
Rolling gives you invincibility
It doesn’t seem like a huge tip but the game never tells you this, so otherwise you could’ve never realised
so basically roll away from enemies lol
No, you can roll straight through their attacks and not get hurt
But if an attack can be jumped over, jumping is more effective
Skal! If you ever feel yourself in an impossible situation, there is no shame in calling in the body recovery squad. The BRS has helped me out of a few impossible spots.
Jump wolves, roll trolls. Block boars and parry goblins.
Impossible situations don’t exist to Igolry 
Then he's a better player then me, which isn't hard really.
It’s because you’re only jumping for wolves, not everything
(Jump attack op)
I also jump necks, those things are scary
Okay that's not true. I'm always out of stamina from them. So I just take the neck on the chin
yo thanks i just loaded in and as you said blob it did freeze but i waited and the games seems lit
Go say hi to Hugin 
me and him clicked straight away
Find water as soon as possible, it’s where you find flint
oh ok imma try find some but idk if i should leave the big stones
i beat tf out this boar dont worry
They’ll be on your map so you can return at any time
If you do a run around you should find some berries and mushrooms
Boar tartar
theyre like boss summons right?
And by run around I mean literally behind the stones
No, you return the heads of the bosses to sacrifice them
yeah ive seen a bunch of em lol
It's the spawn point. They don't make bosses camp the spawn point, this isn't COD
still dont understand lol
The standing stones are where you'll spawn when you die. Bosses won't summon there
Once you have an appropriate shelter, you can set it as a spawn point
so its basically like ark but for vikings
I’ve never played ark so idk
Probably yes?
yeah i think so but thanks and if i need any help ill ask
#valheim-help would be the best channel for that
You punch the tree to get the wood
ok bet
If it's to hard, find a softer tree or upgrade your punch
it's like ark, but the interface isnt garbage
Medium curry from a ligit Indian restaurant be the spicy I needed. Been eating store bought crap for waaaaay to long.🍲😋
Yall enjoy your food to the fullest. It is definitely one of the spices of life.
Anyone experiencing better performance recently? My fps has increased a good 30 percent, and i cant figure out why, thought my performance was just a tad lower than my friends because I was hosting the session, but im questioning whats going on.
Maybe 🤔
yeah a litte bit, my performence is better now a litte bit
hey there!
My GF and i have been playing 500h no problem, but since today, her computer crashes when we are in a dungeon in Mistlands.... Its not the first time we do a dungeon in mistlands, we never had issues.
Graphic drivers are updated...
Any ideas?
Boing boing
New while computer crashing is not likely the game doing. But it can be a symtom of something not being as it should be.
yyes, and no mods.
we did the dungeon at 80%, she had all the black core and she crashed, we lost everything
its always been perfect until now, the game made her laptop crash 5 times in a row. it even duplicated some of the items she gave me before crashing... we lost a lot of progress and the game duplicated shit items lol
Duplication is probably due to how the Dave system works. But crashed needs to be investigated. Shoot me a DM and I'll look at it
done!
Morgen gjall.
I'll pass the coffee to my wife.
hi
Mornin gjall 😄
It's "time to roll out of bed hour and get some breakfast." And as always, caffeine. 4:30am comes quick 🌄
Heh, at 4:30 i was still awake 😄
Hey Smiffe can we ignore some of your no's?
only you are in control of what you ignore
Yeah but some no's are ok to ignore and others might be dangerous to ignore.
There is a whole discussion in suggestion discussion going on: #suggestion-discussion message
yeah I'm just gonna go ahead and ignore that discussion. seems toxic and unproductive
The only no you can't ignore is the no of the law.
btw, you absolutely can ignore the law -- but as with all things, not necessarily the consequences
Assuming that's #suggestions I'm both curious but also glad I can't indulge that curiosity.
coming in from HD2 as a refuge
Hi All - whats the best channel to find a server I can join?
#1024264966712340510 is that way!
thanks!
True, I've added that ^^
Played Valheim for first time yesterday with 2 bro's. I'm struggling to understand how the servers and character progression work. So my bro set up a server with 3 of us in it. He won't always be online so if I want to progress my character while he's offline do I need to find a random community server to join? Any progress I make will be carried over when I rejoin my bro's server when he's online? Is that right?
World and character are saved separately, so you could make a solo world and use that same character in the group world.
Have different characters for different worlds is also a possibility.
when you say make a solo world as in just create my own server?
meant to do as a reply
would I need to start a community server?
no, you make a new world, the game is also for solo players
I tried that. So I played on my bros server last night. Then today went into my own world... did a couple of things. Saved it. Then exited the game. When I reopened the game it asked me whether I want to load up a cloud save from yesterday or my local save. Could I just open my local save and then use that when I rejoin my bro's server and it'll keep my progress?
Yes and no, character progress will be saved, world progress won't.
So if you defeat a boss in your solo world (either saved locally or on the cloud) it will be for that world.
If you then go to a world where that boss hasn't been defeated some world settings will be different.
ahhh okay but any updates I make to my character and inventory will be saved
cool I think I get it
thanks!
Yes, you can go in another world, harvest stone and wood or kill mobs and take their loot or get gear and it will be with you to any world you go.
awesome! Thanks
is there a community server I can just quickly join to test that what I've just done in my solo world has saved? They all require a password
just make another solo world 🙂
good point! Never play these types of games usually so really confused but getting there haha
Haha! This is my refuge away from the HD2 Discord too…
its so chill here
I like it
Yup. There’s occasionally some good stuff over there, but it’s drowned in so much… ugh.
I'm assuming you also play valheim?
I do.
Wanna play?
Not looking to start/join a new group at the moment. But at some point maybe. Sorry.
ah is chill
If I invite others to my server can they destroy my stuff?
yes
Yes even if you protect it with a ward, they might need to break the ward first I'm not sure about that.
You just asked someone in the valheim server if they play valheim...
Idk what answer you were expecting
ooooooooo good to know thanks 🙂 I'll probably get really into the building aspect
Just lurking maybe? Who knows.
I would be a liar if I claimed that I didn’t consider replying with a “no, I just like hanging out here”. 🤣
Which is a possibility, I still hang around in discord servers about games I don't play anymore.
I see it happening with this discord server as well, not in the near future though.
For sure. And is why I responded as I did.
the ward only prevents opening chests and stuff, but it doesent prevent destruction or anything 🙂
i was gonna make this same comment but i decided to save it for when i actually feel like being an ass
it does warn you though?
oh yes, but i meant it doesent physically prevent their destruction 🙂
it use to. But it was so strong when you stacked 10++ of them 😅
when i first started to use them i thought that it incresed the health/lowered dmg done to buldings but then i learned it was just my imagination 😄
does the lightning damage from the new weapons hurt friendly players?
it doesn't, right? Like, it can't override the friendly fire toggle option?
It shouldn't
ty. that's what I thought, but a friend thought otherwise
Morgen gjall.
Maybe cose it hurts the Dvergr and makes them mad 😡 but they are neural I suppose. Has killed me a couple of times that!
It could if friendly fire is turned on.
Mornin gjall 😄
I punched Fader and got away alive.
👀
It doesn't suck it's great
In a normal way or 5 stacks of stone to close it and 2 summoned trolls? xD
Bare knuckles punch and then I ran for my life, switched to staff of growth and took 15 minutes to kill him.
I've tried to kill it normally for 2-3 hours in a row, but... Decided to choose "A man eating chips" mode in the end xD
How many hours u guys got?
uh...500
271
bit over 800
Technically: No one has beaten the game, it isn't finished yet.
At least 800
Yeah ik i meant the last boss for now
I’m a new player with a few hours of playing and haven’t killed my first boss does anyone want to play with me
As said in the other chat: #1024264966712340510 is the place for that, either post something yourself or browse at your leisure.
bout 550
good morning! have a great day and don’t forget to check if the bees are happy 
Approaching 550
you say that... 🤔
Don't tell me it isn't true what I said.
It is, or not. Perhaps yes, maybe or a middle in between 🤔
Får me to know, and for you to find out
and this is how rumors of the game being finished start...
Does anyone want to argue with me about something?
ugh i am so annoyed due to dying while having the high ground against a damn wolf when it can hit me and i can't hit it
...maybe
why is my game running like a fucking one legged donkey in the mistlands?
literally 7 fps
normally runs over 100
I have some lags only in Ashlands, but looks like it’s due to a number of mobs xD
Steam says 3100.
I think some of that was idle / me hiding in a cave while dedicated server ran time but at least 2k is playtime.
My game used to do that randomly. I think it's a unity bug. I restarted the game and it went away.
Yes! Me and four or five more friends made it to the Ashlands and it lagged so bad we all died several times trying to fight the mobs. They just kept coming one after the other. There was no break inbetween.
I saw a stream of one friend in Discord and mobs were literally teleporting.
But I'm a host, it was almost fine on my side (only some short freezes) and didn't have any connection issues.
Instantly teleporting 1-star Asksvin is so scary xD
Holy
I am also the host but I too experienced the same problems as them. It was crazy and we haven't been back on as a group since. lol.
That is exactly the issue my group had in the Ashlands. Two of my group (of three) basically have barely played at all since we got into that biome. It's not 100% due to this, but I know a large part of it is the frustration they were feeling from dying over and over because of the lag.
Even solo players are turning settings way down and adjusting as much as they can in the ashlands. With the number of mobs lag can be a real killer. I hope it gets optimized soon and with the reduction of mobs on the PTR that may help considerably with the lag when it gets implemented. I wish they could fix it without reducing mobs as I like the challenge but I understand why it is difficult for most with the spawn rate, especially at night.

Most likely it's related to a number of mobs.
The worst part has started when we tried to loot first Fortress without destroying these 2 spawners.
Totally agree. I love a hardcore part of the game, but not lags xD
I've been gaming since 1987 and Valheim is easily in my top ten favorite games ever. Maybe even top 5.
Top 3?
Its not the amount of monsters that causes lag tho.
But we are working on fixing things
That's nice!
(oop i got timed out, sorry mods >_<)
Happy International Cat Day! ^^
I wonder if cats are lore accurate 🤔
Jon Valheim
I wish theres a cat god you can kill in valheim
Freya Maybe?
Mew.
But no
It's ok just restart the game
It fixes mine atleast.
Yeah in mistlands
Nice
Picking a top 10 is hard enough, top 3 has some pretty fierce competition. It's prolly not quite there, but certainly in the ballpark. There's classics like the OG Baldur's Gate and Fallout, and then stuff like KSP (although to be fair carried a bit by mods), Don't Starve, Factorio... Just to name a few.
my top 3 is easy enough tbh
DS3 = Eldenring > Terraria
It changes depending on the day but Ocarina of Time, Fallout New Vegas, ... ya know Valheim might be that 3rd one. Other contenders are Hollow Knight, original Metroid (they have a similar place in my heart), and Quest for Glory 2.
Those Sierra Quest games will always be near and dear to my heart. They had so much personality, humor, and just solid storytelling.
Space Quest is hilarious.
not sure how I managed to type "top top" - I was still workin on my first cup of coffee at that moment lol
valheim may not even make it into my top 10
its a great game but the competition is pretty good too...
Although I'm currently taking a break and playing No Man's Sky, Valheim is my number one 
omg I just bought and immediately had to refund no man's sky it was so buggy
I always joke that if a random stranger greeted me on the street and said "Michael - I heard you're into Valheim. Wanna start a new character on my new world?" I would say "Hell yes, random stranger, I would love to."
I never thought of it
There are so many great games
On impulse I could say top 10 but I feel that if I thought about it long enough it's around top 50
There are just so many great games
interesting bunch of games 🤔
you never played Breath of the wild?
Interesting you'd say breath of the wild but not tears of the kingdom
don't even know what title
It's botw2
Incredible games
I haven't finished it yet
I have it on like 4 platforms and still never got the "chance"
😄
I did. and Tears of the Kingdom.
I loved Tears of the Kingdom.
I wish they were one game
Because I had like 250 hours in botw already and then another 200 on totk
I 100% botw but not totk
They are so damn immersive it's insane
Zelda >>> Mario
not sure if it's relevant to that game but do u know at what point does "songs of the storm" plays?
i listened to a remix of it i really liked, though i don't know the origin of the song
It's in Ocarina of Time
similar case with corridors of time from chrono trigger
You learn it from the dude in the ... wheelhouse? wtf is the name of that thing. There's this guy playing an accordion and there's this spinning wheel gear thing.
waterwheel thingie?
Oh yea its a giant record player
lol
It's a windmill
Son of a Gun is by the Vaselines
The windmill
Link teaches it to a man with a music box
Then learns it from the man with the music box in the future
A paradox
Why are ppl so obsessed with causality and the linear progression of time
fascinating
Cause time travel doesn't make sense, and people often don't treat it like the space magic it is
i love paradoxes and timeline crap
What do you mean 👀
haven't played any zelda game aside a bit of twilight princess, though i was a kid and don't remember much
That sounds like Majora's mask
You have 72 hours to save the world from a falling moon
this is why garfield hates momdays
start of a new week, work, falling moons crashing onto earth, gosh darn mondays
Skyrim's Creed: Souls Theft Auto?
Legendary 50 year edition!
In seriousness - I have an idea for a game that marries the best elements of Valheim, Project Zomboid, and Satisfactory/Factorio/Dyson Sphere. 3rd person zombie survival where the goal is creating the cure to the virus through automation. I've talked about it on here before and am still trying to get folks together to make it. I might just start working on it despite my terri-bad art skills.
That genuinely sounds like a lot of fun.
I can save the sonic franchise with one game idea
why project zomboid instead of 7dtd? especially if it's 3rd person? pz/factorio strikes me more as a top-down perspective game
I'm also curious on how you'd manage combining survival and automation
PZ has a better handle on zombie survival mechanics than 7DTD, at least a more realistic approach
