Yep, only your puny viking muscles to pull that thing. Works excellent downhill though!

#

and how many stacks would you guys say is optimal for iron?

#

i used 110 iron for bunch of stuff and now im not sure how much is like a good amount so i can max my gear

frozen void
#

More than you can fit on a longship

#

my plan is to stay in swamps until i get enough so i can leave

Youll never have enough iron lol

Anyway ideally you want a lot

Its used for gear in the three next biomes too

Once you reach Mistlands there are other sources there

oh that was not the problem, but rather the fact that swamps are far from my base and sailing there is so time consuming

#

If a server has been played on for a long time and looted pretty heavily what would be the strategy for a new player? Planting trees, making armor from enemy drops, flint arrows etc? It seems like the hardest thing to get would be merchant sellables

#

Ore would be nearly impossible to find for instance

heady parcel
#

If they have pillaged the entire world I'd say that would be the case yeah, but unless it is a server with raised player cap through mods the worlds are big enough that you should be able to find some pristine areas

flat ridge
#

ah i ddint know you could make bigger worlds

heady parcel
#

Nah all worlds are the same size

flat ridge
#

i thought the game map was huge until i realized how much of it was sea and how little of it was meadows and dark forest

heady parcel
#

Normally there's a fair bit of black forest and even meadows to be found far from spawn

flat ridge
#

for instance i know you can get stone from stone golems, wood from the grey dwarves, and i think they might drop plantable trees

heady parcel
#

If they have managed to deplete all rocks from the mountains I'd say it is pointless to play on that world

odd helm
#

Greydwarves don't drop tree seeds, but surely your server mates haven't cut down every single tree in the world

flat ridge
#

im just thinking ahead and wondering how it would work. trying to progress without any form of ore would be pretty tough

odd helm
#

A server that depleted probably shouldn't be accepting new players, period~

#

That's well past the point most would consider a server reset

drowsy magnet
#

In a different game, I ran a server where we set up a separate world for resource gathering, and we'd reset it every week. That way the main world was just for building and chilling. Not sure if you can do that in Valheim, maybe you can, using mods 🤔

heady parcel
#

That would just be two separate servers, works fine

grave bone
#

I played on such server - a main Valheim server with builds and mods and another - more close to vanilla for resource gathering

drowsy magnet
#

You don't leave the server

heady parcel
#

Not in Valheim, unless you cound separate instances on one server box

flat ridge
#

one way they could reintroduce ore to the world is they could have meteors with a few bits of each type or some kind of miner npc. besides ore i think pretty much everything can be found in enemy drops or respawns

grave bone
#

@drowsy magnet I think it's possible with mods. I mentioned a server - it had server side characters that can be played with on two worlds.

flat ridge
#

shame that valheim doesnt have infinite worlds like minecraft.

#

getting a full cart of iron to your longship in the swamps is a pain in the ass

merry pebble
heady parcel
#

Once you load that cart past where you can pull it up a slope, it is nearly useless

fair cairn
#

i did do that after the first time, i then filled one row in the cart went to longship, stored it, and repeated till warship full

#

although it helped my swamp was absolutely filled with cryps near the shoreline

heady parcel
#

Lately I have just ditched the cart entirely and haul the ore back on foot to where I have the boat and store it there. Turns out to be most effective, making paths with hoe and dragging the cart in there, it's not really worth it imo

#

Also I was traumatised once before I learned how it worked (= that you can roll out of it) when I died horribly to a one-star troll that came out of nowhere

Panicked trying to find the "E" to disengage...splat

Plains used to intimidate me a lot, now I love the place because of the vistas

# uncut spruce ty

If you are new to plains, be wary of the flying things, they hit hard and have a tendency to come at you when you are busy with other things. The big animals hit like trucks but are a good source of food. The green fellas can be dangerous, especially at night when they roam around in bands. Beware of starred ones, they hit very very hard

True true, My main base is a small walk away from water but all my other sub bases are directly next to the ocean

#

The meadows biome is exempt from certain events, so it's safer to have your main base there. Setting up a portal network is the best way to mitigate the long distances to areas where the loot is better.

It is kinda nice to have a base close to plains so you don't have to go out of your way to make loxes eat

And it makes corpse runs easier.

I sailed up to a Black Forest to camp for the night and didn't realize there was a sliver of beach along the shoreline was sandy due to it being Plains. That was a surprise getting attacked by fulings at night.

The more I play the game the more I get the feeling that the devs favorite biome is the swamp

or more the lox

the lox are nice for killing other things like tars

I'm for sure gonna be triple health fooding myself in some dungeons to give me a bit of a safety cushion. I also usually prefer light armor and probably still will to avoid getting hit, but some scenarios might call for heavy armor to avoid oneshots

paper roost
#

i m still using double health and stamina, couse lack of stamina can kill you same fast as get one shoted, especially in the mountains

paper marsh
#

Yea I don't think I'm ever gonna go double stamina on this run, outside of specific scenarios like I just went triple stamina to run loops around a troll and kill it

fallen zephyr

2 x Stam, 1 x health plus parry. Works a charm (edit: for me at least)

Although... what I did initially, was have a half-decent number of portals at home, but not limit the portals I had remotely. Then, if you keep track of names, you can just change your home portal names to go where it's relevant in the moment.

The first hit matters so much now that they all do double the damage and don't have any health increase to counteract it

I now see that they're more effective at mob spawn prevention in that case

Some people use bonemass to farm skills, like bow skill

i definitely did not think i'd need so much iron even in plains. i guess you dont but building a nice base requires a lot of iron

any better way of finding a server to join? the lfg is a bit dead..

plush umbra
fallen zephyr
hollow wing
#

I don't agree but I still find it tedious

#

To me it just feels easier to get iron than silver

#

I can get a boat out of there or a cart and there are usually many crypts, I can get a lot of ores from just several crypts.

heady parcel
#

I kinda enjoy the iron grind, the sunken crypts are exactly the kind of really inhospitable dungeon we preffered in our pnp dnd days, it's kinda nostalgic. I'd just like the format to be developed a bit - things like swimming through entirely sunken parts to get to deeper bits and so on

hollow wing
#

i mean im hoping they expand it in the future, maybe add some new mobs or something.

fallen zephyr
hollow wing
#

i've argued about silver on this server many times

#

the transportation is just awful in the mountains. i mean it's called mountains for a reason, it's rocky terrain, carts are not easy to get across.

fallen zephyr
hollow wing
#

yeah that there are not adequate transport options for ores

heady parcel
#

That's kinda the point though - getting what you need requires effort

hollow wing
#

Theres a difference between effort and just bad transport choice in the mountains

paper roost
#

the demand on silver is way lower than iron

heady parcel
#

Plus, sending a cart tumbling down a mountain and picking up the remains after is great fun

plush umbra
#

Just crafting things on the mountain is easy enough as well

hollow wing
#

There are people that talk about realism in this game, and then theres this

plush umbra

I don’t even bring the silver down anymore

Aye, on my first world I took one of the ruined castles up there and made a crafting waystation of it

it's just how physics work. push it to a slope and it will go down the slope

heady parcel
#

Nah, it's a choice - and what do you expect? This is a world without roads - if you want better roads in the mountains you can build them yourself - or go without and have the struggle that means

half dragon
#

Either way, not every biome has to be smooth sailing for transportation.

hollow wing
#

no idea why people defend a really bad and boring biome

paper roost

90% of the time i just move the cart down without issues, sometimes its needed to let it go, but its rare

...oooh several people are typing 😛

half dragon

I did a bit of that to move cart between mining locations, then at the end yeet it down the mountain for a shortcut

hollow wing
#

There should be a different transport option for ore through mountains. Cart makes no sense in a mountain

half dragon
#

it does though, only problem with the design is that the cart made of wood would not be durable enough for that.

#

Some other material and you could 100% replicate it irl

#

but it probably would get stuck deep in some pit of snow lol (if unlucky)

# hollow wing There should be a different transport option for ore through mountains. Cart mak...

it is your back, basically. Personally, I make a small storage base when I enter a mountain, every silver node I mine I bring the spoils back to that place and store them, and once I'm done I either carry them manually down to where I have my boat, or to a place at the foot of the mountain where I can load it on a cart. It's all very well constructed - if you want QoL features you have the tools to make them yourself.

plush umbra

My only alternative suggestion would be creating a zipline like structure so you can send your stuff down

It’s not like you can express an opinion on discord without someone unfairly calling it whining though

hollow wing
#

How the hell is it easier? I'm still going down a mountain surrounded by drakes, wolves who will attack the carriage, and going through a very rocky terrain. It just makes a lot more sense than relying on weird cart throwing down the mountain.

#

Easier seems to be mistaken for transport that makes sense, there's not much easier about it, you still have to transport. Go from place to place to gather silver ore

plush umbra
#

Idk it’s simple enough to just not bring the silver down the mountain as well

#

You don’t have to transport silver anywhere if you don’t want to

half dragon

can always bring the finished product through protals.

plush umbra
#

Just put a furnace on the vein and smelt as you mine

heady parcel
#

Just appreciate the fact that biomes are in fact different to each other and bring their respective challenges. Mountains - being mountains - make transportation a bigger challenge than other places, possibly with competition from the swamp. It makes sense, and you can feel it is annoying, but that doesn't make it make any less sense.

hollow wing
#

My friend, you are the one telling people that what makes sense is to throw carts down a mountain.

heady parcel

Personally I find pulling a cart in the black forest just about as annoying as it is in the mountains

smoky quarry

i rebuilt a simple cabin un on mountain, spent more time making a road down the mountain with serpentines (later also made a dump ramp)

at one point it starts flying though

1000T silver be damned, cart will fly

half dragon
hollow wing
# half dragon you're mixing making people up. it is my idea, I'm not letting others steal cred...

i dont know who had this idea, it's what i did too to transport 300 silver, there's no other way of doing it without a portal. but the argument that making a path on mountains is easy is just not true, not true at all. It's called a mountain for a reason, there is not much flat terrain, maybe there is if you're lucky but for me to get to the edge I had to break the cart and roll the chests to the edge. Building a road up a hill is simply not possible. Unless you want to mine the whole way to the edge which is terrible.

smoky quarry
#

i got a road thru a massive forrest, takes you 3-4 days ingame to make walk it all

plush umbra

i made a road down the mountain and being downhill, it was easy to bring a full cart

sometimes it stumbled and rolled a few metters :p

it is very much related...

you want to move it off the mountain? then just turn it into finished product, then the whole challenge is gone

NOT having to move silver off the mountain is a totally legitimate alternative.

Probably more so because it’s the 8th repeat of the same convo

fallen zephyr

#

There are multiple options to transport ore down the mountain.
Especially now portals can be set to let ores pass.

Meaning:

  1. Portals;
  2. pushing carts off a ledge
  3. Dropping the ores off a ledge and picking it up at the feet of the mountains
  4. Several Dev-commands.
  5. World hopping.

If that isn't enough, what else do people want?

I don't think I've ridden one but I wanna start to. They're prob not great for movement.

You can transport a lot of metal short trips tho. Could be useful if you have a big base and need to move metal around it

I think Lox would be a good ore transport if you could actually teleport places with it

Also trolls get attracted when you chop wood / mine metals, and they'll always be in the area unless you kill them. If you kill them no new ones will spawn, so your mining operation should be safe

If you are using the antler axe, just make a workbench nearby and put a roof above it and you can repair on site

I plan on storing the copper on the boat and carry some with me since I have the belt

Bronze is only better if you upgrade it to 4 really

#

Iron however is necessary for later ores

#

so bronze pickaxe is arguably a waste of bronze

paper marsh

I never make bronze pick

Bronze pick does have more durability than the antler, but since you need a forge to repair it...well yeah

Bronze pick ftw.

Unless terraforming.
Then antler is king.

I mean I'd rather have a bronze pick than a antler pick, but I'd rather gather the resources for an antler pick than gather the resources for a bronze one

Is there any biome after the mistlands left?

paper marsh
#

not yet, but sometime in the next 4 months a biome after mistlands will be added (||Ashlands||)

Don't explore the next biome yet

Otherwise the new content won't generate after the update

plush umbra

then it doesnt matter
is it complete enough to explore though?

tardy coral
#

Unless you reuse the seed

#

Well no, that's why there's going to be an ashlands update

heady parcel
paper marsh
# plush umbra wait is it already in the world?

So "Ashlands" is currently a biome that only spawns on the very bottom (southern) part of the map. It's a empty unfinished biome. In a few months an update will transform it into an actual biome with content (stays in southern part of map), but if you've gone to that part of the map before the update and started exploring, anything you explored will stay as the unfinished biome and not update

#

So just stay away from the bottom of the map. If you accidentally uncover a bit of ashlands it's fine, it just means that tiny part won't update, but the rest of it still will

plush umbra
#

I see thanks for clarifying

paper marsh
#

Similarly, there's also a "Deep North" biome at the very top (North) part of the map which is currently unfinished and is gonna be added to later so don't go there either. The update for the Deep North is probably at least a few years out tho

man so far the deadliest thing in this game is cutting down trees, i have no idea how they keep damaging me so much from just rolling a bit

shame to lose 2 levels from everything multiple times around level 50 because rolling log decides to do 15 damage for no reason

Better eat some healthy food. If you’re at lvl 50 you should be able to avoid dying from a measley 15 dmg

A skeleton hits me that does 50 damage. I ain’t scared of no tree

with 75% resist his poison doesn't do much damage. As long as you're not getting hit by his actual swing

That would still be true considering he has half the hp of bonemass

And one of his most dangerous attacks is very easily avoidable by the altar pillars

If only he wouldn't puke. It's his weakness

as my friend says whenever he pukes: Free damage time

On the long term, you can still get damaged badly by the poison

is it possible to change tag of one of connected portals to change both of their names?

languid root

For me it looks like he gets affected by his own weapon - poison. Even want to give him a free potion

Getting poisoned occasionally wouldn't deal dmg.

Being constantly poisoned throughout the fight would definitely kill you if being careless

# uncut spruce whats the best way to transport silver?

I like to set up a portal at my mine and another portal at the boat. Mine as much silver as you can carry, pop Eikthyr, run down the mountain (which is easy), put it a chest (don't leave your boat out when you're not using it), take the portal back up the mountain. Repeat until you have all the silver you need.

I don't like using the cart for silver because it always breaks and then I'm doing a scavanger hunt for boxes.

i wonder what the queen's drops will turn out to be

#

following previous boss drop conventions, they have to be something that arent consumable, but you could stand to want to have more of, but maybe infrequently

#

especially due to the queen being such a pain to kill, and hard to re-summon

azure yacht
#

Only non-consumable boss drops so far are elder's and bonemass'

dapper rain

oh, i meant consumable in the sense of them being used for an instance or a duration of use only

#

what does moder drop again? i actually forget

#

(besides her head)

#

oh the tears

azure yacht
#

Yes, a material

dapper rain
#

i'm betting queen's drops pertain to boats somehow

#

and maybe to the new serpent creatures

but that wouldnt have anything to do with access gating the ashlands, as you can often reach it by land

New ashlands will be completely separated by sea

near inlet
odd helm
#

The pattern is mostly 'I'm giving you the tools to harvest/process new materials in the next biome'

#

Except for Yag, who's like 'I'm giving you the power to see again'

#

So it's likely to be something that either allows you to harvest new materials or survive at all in the Ashlands

unique onyx
#

or a key or metal detector or something new

kind pelican
#

I hope Ashlands has more elemental damage to justify using yag buff
Bonemass power is just too good

dapper rain
#

yeah. the mistlands made most of its dangers resistant to non-elemental damage, so you'd think that would have been the place for using elemental powers

#

which it was, but it's sorta redundant after youve gained enough strength to beat the queen

#

unless mistlands ashlands weapons are especially elemental in nature

plush umbra

Turn back. You can easily find mistlands later, and you're probably way underpowered right now (it's the last biome you shuold go to)

nimble ore
#

got it, thank you for preventing me from dying

paper marsh
#

highly highly highly recommended you go Meadows-->Black Forest --> Swamp --> Mountains --> Plains --> Mistlands your first time through. That's how the progression is set up. Technically you can skip ahead a biome just to get a few resources and then resume the normal path, but you gotta have some experience with the game to not immediately die in a too advanced biome and to even know what you can use from there without having completed the last biome

Is there anyway to speed up the taming process or do I gotta sit and wait thirty minutes for each animal

celest wing

Yeah you basically just throw raspberries in their pen, usually around 10, then just wait in their vicinity to tame them. But you can't be too close or you'll startle them

latent wraith
#

30 minutes, but you only need to be nearby and not have them know you're there so you can do other stuff like cooking and farming while you wait.

Are the water filled wells in the swamp good for anything?

celest wing

I usually do a building project while waiting

Or just read something or watch something while they tame.

sometimes they have draugers in them

latent wraith
#

The wells are just decoration.

celest wing
halcyon elk
#

I’m in the very early stages of my world so don’t have the resources to build anything major

celest wing
#

Just gotta be patient really. I just build random stuff I will use later to keep myself busy while still being in their vicinity

halcyon elk
#

Is it better to go for surtling cores first or copper and tin first

latent wraith
#

You need cores to be able to do anything with the ore.

celest wing
#

I grab cores first with the help of stagbreaker. So when I get the ores, I can smelt them right away

halcyon elk
#

What does stag breaker do? Is it just a basic hammer like the club?

latent wraith
#

It does an aoe attack that goes through walls.

celest wing
#

It's a sledgehammer that does a fat area of effect blunt damage

#

Although it is slow to swing and you can't use a shield with it since it's a two handed weapon

#

Mostly best used in swarms and early black forest when dealing with skeletons in the buriel chambers

halcyon elk
#

I figured it wasn’t worth the time because of the five deer trophies

balmy seal
#

Deer trophies are cheap af

celest wing
#

It is super helpful to clear out the buriel chambers

halcyon elk
#

Yeah but hunting deer takes forever

#

I usually just parry with a shield and use an upgraded club against skeletons

celest wing
#

Especially since buriel chambers I tend to find have a good amount of 1 star skeletons. So stagbreaker clears it out a lot easier

latent wraith
#

I've never tested stagbreaker so I've no idea hwo good it actually is. Club or torch and shield does the trick, with bow for enemies that hit harder than I like.

celest wing
#

Really the hard part is getting core wood because you could end up accidentally aggroing some really scary enemies like a potential troll

latent wraith
#

Torch is my preferred weapon in burial chambers since it doubles as a light source and I can just make a new on the spot when it breaks.

halcyon elk
#

I like to use trolls to speed up deforestation. Also for fine wood bow early

celest wing
#

Stagbreaker is really helpful for early black forest. Clears out swarms of greydwarfs by killing the weaker ones easier and it helps out clearing the buriel chambers a lot easier because its aoe blunt damage can cleanly kill a group of skeletons in a couple swings

#

And because it does a lot of knockback, skeletons get sent far enough so that their swings don't hit you

halcyon elk
#

I’ve never made it to the Bronze Age

celest wing
#

I've beaten the game before. This is just a newer run I'm doing

#

Realistically the hardest times you'll have is the swamp and mistlands

halcyon elk
#

I usually stop at Black Forest because every world I’ve generated is super stingy with cores

#

And also the process of mining copper is painfully slow

celest wing
#

Yeah copper is a pain if you wanna go into the swamp fully geared up

latent wraith
#

Bronze armour is the most common to skip, I think. Troll is almost as much armour with no speed penalty, and less grindy to acquire.

halcyon elk
#

The llast world I did i went on a troll killing spree to get the full troll set for the first time

#

I got it before I even started working on my base

celest wing
#

Because the swamp is one of the most difficult biomes in the game. It is perpetually raining so you always have slowed stamina regen, some pretty strong enemies, wraiths have really janky attacks making them hard to parry and they hit p hard themselves, and abominations are tough to fight at that point in the game

celest wing
halcyon elk
#

Does heavy armor also slow down your rolls

latent wraith
#

The swamp requires proper preparation and caution.

celest wing
#

Swamp isn't the hardest, it's just the most punishing for newer players

latent wraith
#

I've not really tested Mistlands yet but of the 5 first biomes swamp is by far the hardest.

Mistlands is pretty fucking brutal

I just had a fairly clean time because I had an idea on what to do, but seekers still chunk you and the gjall is a sentient nuke shooter

The last time I played valheim the mistlands were just announced. What are they

fluid mountain
#

Hello guys, I'm looking for someone who is a good builder and has creativity to help me create my village on the server I'm playing on

plush umbra
#

Swamps is definitely easier than plains and mtns

plush umbra
#

Make a post

#

A thing about mistlands though is it has very rugged and uneven terrain with stone pillars that can reach really high. Meaning higher stamina is really valuable

halcyon elk
#

Are there any tameable mobs in the mistlands or is it still just wolves boars and those big bear looking things

celest wing
plush umbra
#

The things hit so much harder

# plush umbra The things hit so much harder

I think its really just the rain that stumps me sometimes because having less stamina to work with when getting swarmed can be rough. And makes running away a lot less viable

plush umbra
#

I honestly don’t notice the difference

celest wing
#

I do and it causes me immense pain

#

Although the rested buff generally balances it out. You just gotta know what to do

latent wraith
plush umbra
#

I wonder if it’s 15% or effectively 30%

#

quick question- is this the legit valheim discord server?

latent wraith
#

Yes.

plush umbra
#

Since its -15% right but when you have rested you’re at 200% so does that -15% apply before or after rested

#

cool because after these shenanigans a month or so back i thought Id just ask

halcyon elk
#

Was it this server that got hacked or something

latent wraith
#

Yeah

celest wing
#

My advice is to keep poison resistance meads, keep a portal nearby, and never try to be out at night because enemy spawns can be legit unfair at times

halcyon elk
#

Funny how people complain about ashlands taking forever to release and then proceed to hack the devs shit hindering their progress

celest wing
#

I unironically had 5 draugr, 3 skeletons, a wraith, and abomination attack me all at the same time because I was out at night

#

My ass did not survive

halcyon elk
#

Do you put teleporters in biomes that you have to sail to?

celest wing
#

You gotta build your own portals

plush umbra
#

Ah wiki says wet is -30% when rested interesting but still 170% stamina regen is pretty good

celest wing
#

I always make a small base near the biome I'm about to go into just so I have a refuge when it starts going dark

#

Then when I'm ready and can consistently hold my own, I start making a base in that biome

halcyon elk
#

Are the early game capes worth crafting or are those mostly for aesthetics

balmy seal
#

Troll cape and that's about it

celest wing
#

They're kinda just cosmetic aside from troll cape

untold pecan
#

So is the multiplayer scene basically just on steam?

balmy seal
#

Deer hide cape is useless

celest wing
#

They don't start getting useful until the wolf cape

untold pecan
#

I tried the game on gamepass pc and loved it but I don’t mind rebuying

halcyon elk

Idk I mostly play single player

halcyon elk
#

What weapons should I craft with bronze. I don’t want to waste any on a weapon I’m not gonna use

plush umbra
#

Atgeir is easy mode, you need an axe though

#

Knife doesn’t have a movement penalty

celest wing
#

Really they only start getting good with the wolf cape

#

And even the lox cape is just kinda there

halcyon elk
#

It’d be cool if there were two handed swords

celest wing
#

There is one in the mistlands called Krom

halcyon elk
#

Really?

celest wing
#

Yeah

plush umbra
#

Since you already need bronze axe that gives something effective against all the greydwarves and the boss for the biome but you’ll want a fine wood bow

celest wing
#

It is a gigantic longsword that I think is two handed

halcyon elk
#

Is it craftable or a boss drop

celest wing
#

Craftable in the mistlands

plush umbra
#

Craftable

#

It’s the only 2h though and mistlands will take a minute to get to

celest wing
#

Mistlands is funky in that it has the most complex crafting recipes in the game rn

plush umbra
#

Pretty sure you don’t even need a bronze pickaxe if you really don’t want to mine much

celest wing
#

I usually get bronze pick to mine iron easier in the swamp

halcyon elk
#

I really want to get that hammer that looks like thors hammer. Idk how to spell it’s actual name

celest wing
#

Frostner is the best weapon in the mountains. Probably one of the best in the game because its place in progression

#

The frost debuff is an insanely useful one because it buys you a lot of time against enemies

halcyon elk
#

What’s that one lightning sword called

plush umbra
#

Sharpzappy

halcyon elk
#

Noted

#

Where do you get it

plush umbra
#

the only lightning weapon in the game is himminafl, an atgeir

celest wing
#

There is a lightning polearm called Himmin Afl

plush umbra
#

there's a frost sword in mistlands though, mistwalker

celest wing
#

Really the coolest weapons are locked behind mistlands

plush umbra
#

All the coolest weapons are in the mistlands tbh

#

Same thought

#

frostner is pretty cool ❄️ :>

halcyon elk
#

I don’t remember what weapon it was I just remember a weird glowing sword and there was a lot of lightning

celest wing
#

I like the more fantasy weapons. It fits really well with the norse style of the game and give a lot more spice to simple weapons

plush umbra
#

Might be a mod if you saw a lightning sword

#

I can’t wait for more magic weapons it’s hard to believe some people think we shouldn’t have anything magic

halcyon elk
#

Maybe. But I do remember seeing a glowing sword in the vanilla game. Or maybe I’m schizophrenic and losing my mind

celest wing
#

Stagbreaker, frostner, Porcupine, Mistwalker, Himmin Afl, Krom, and the magic weapons all got a clean flare to them

celest wing
plush umbra
gray nexus
#

Himmin Afl is, but that's a polearm

celest wing
#

He might be talking about Himmin Afl. It shoots out a lot of lightning

halcyon elk
#

Ok so there is a glowing frost sword but no lightning sword.

gray nexus
#

yeah

#

so far, yes

plush umbra
#

Mandela effect

#

There was a lightning sword but the timeline has been altered

celest wing
#

I would've liked one more weapon for the plains. It feels kinda empty in that department

halcyon elk
#

The clip i saw the sword in had a lot a people with different weapons so it was probably someone using a different weapon

plush umbra
#

a wisp is used to craft it, it's the only weapon that clears some mist around you, though not as much as the wisplight.

#

If someone used the lightning weapon around the sword guy I could definitely see thinking it’s a lightning sword

halcyon elk
#

I wish there was more magic attacks in the game so I can make an Odin character

plush umbra
#

Viking palpatine would be cool

#

I want to throw rocks tbh

halcyon elk
#

Ever since I finished gowr the idea of an odin build in valheim has been stuck in my mind for months

plush umbra
#

Greydwarves get to throw rocks let me throw rocks

celest wing
#

Mountains and swamp had a lot comparatively, even if they weren't all useful. Iron sledge, sword, atgeir, mace, ancient spear for swamp, and silver sword, fang spear, frostner, crystal battleaxe, and flesh rippers for mountains.

Then you get to the plains and you get the porcupine, black metal sword, atgeir, and a knife

#

And the knives are kinda just meaningless aside from skol and hati

halcyon elk
#

It would be cool to have elemental staffs that have different spells that can control stuff like the earth, lighting, frost and stuff like that

plush umbra
#

Knives are amazing and have a huge multiplier what do you mean meaningless

celest wing
#

Idk their stubby range makes it very clunky for me

plush umbra
#

Knives do massive damage against loxes

#

I’ve never had an issue with their range but I also stay next to things with them easy with the lack of movement penalty

halcyon elk
#

The flint knife is my favorite starting weapon to use. The leaping attack is helpful when sneaking up on deer

plush umbra
#

I usually make a bow before I can even find flint tbh

celest wing
#

Flint knife is the only one I really use to kill weaker enemies like boars and cuz your options are limited

plush umbra
#

If you go sailing you may just find a really nice early game knife in the ocean

halcyon elk
#

Flint is so accessible tho. In my most recent build I found like thirty flint before I even put down a work bench

celest wing
#

Literally you're better off getting the harpoon though

plush umbra
#

Idk I keep getting worlds with a lot of land so I find 8 scraps worth of boar before water

plush umbra
celest wing
#

Yeah same. I think my newer world has a super fat first island

gray nexus
#

if you're getting a harpoon, might as well get an abyssal knife, will last you long FulingTotem

halcyon elk
#

Most of the time I end up near the shore or a river.

plush umbra
#

You know what? We should be able to throw rocks AND flint

halcyon elk
#

Flint would do more damage

celest wing
#

I forgot you can throw rocks

plush umbra
#

You can’t

gray nexus
#

just throw an iron bar

celest wing
#

I thought you could

halcyon elk
#

Throwable items should be a thing

plush umbra
#

Hitting things with bars would be hilarious

halcyon elk
#

Throwing rocks would be perfect went trying to get feathers early game for fletched arrows

plush umbra
#

Eh wood arrows tho

#

But I’d throw a rock for sure

gray nexus
#

is it weird that i've never killed a random bird lol

celest wing
#

Wood arrows really are better until you get fire arrows to kill the elder

gray nexus
#

Bird Pacifist

plush umbra
plush umbra
halcyon elk
#

If I have a lot of extra flint I tend to make fletched arrows

gray nexus
#

more like I never bothered using special arrows until plains lol

plush umbra
#

I’ve never bothered to make flint since fire are really good for the Black Forest mobs

celest wing
plush umbra
#

I like to shoot him while the others hit him so the fight doesn’t end immediately

#

Plus I’m already stocking up for blackforest

gray nexus
#

We did use fire initially then we got to swamps and just used wood until plains, now we shifted to needle

halcyon elk
#

Eikthyr should get another move added to his kit

plush umbra
#

Said nah to obsidian lol

gray nexus
#

I have around 400 feathers stocked up, idk why I refuse to use them

plush umbra
#

Eh eikthyr is tutorial boss he’s probably at a good spot

#

Melee, long range, and aoe that’s a decent range to show a new player

#

Could do a charge for closing the distance I suppose

halcyon elk
#

I mean when you can kill him with a level one crude bow 100 wood arrows and nothing else you might start to think he could use something else

celest wing
#

I mostly stock up feathers to make fire arrows for the elder. The fire damage is handy for what is a decently long fight that is mostly done from range

plush umbra
#

People punch him while naked

#

Bows are kind of overkill for eikthyr

celest wing
#

Elder isn't really hard. Just kinda need good enough arrows and bow. The boss arena is more than enough to get you by

copper plaza
#

i just watched pacifist boss run, lol, im impressed

gray nexus
#

the funniest eikthyr kill I have seen was with obliterator

#

and bees ig

plush umbra
#

Can you one shot eikthyr with mistlands gear??

halcyon elk
#

Idk why but j can never find bees

plush umbra
#

Houses and ruins

halcyon elk
#

I feel like they’re going out of there way to avoid me in every world I’ve made

#

Most of the houses and ruins I find don’t have bees

plush umbra
#

Have you checked the world viewer to see if you’ve been running right by them lol

gray nexus
#

draugr villages usually have 1, i got 3 from a single village once

halcyon elk
#

Unrelated but valheim has caused me to create a Viking build character in every game that I can. It’s becoming a problem

celest wing
#

I felt that

Guys, I need Ashlands release date pronto

halcyon elk
copper plaza
#

thats why enshrouded was waste of time for me, lol

untold pecan
#

I like enshrouded

#

However it runs at like 30-40 fps on a 13th gen i7 with a 3080 10 gb and 64 gbs of ram

#

Medium/low settings 1080p

balmy seal
untold pecan
#

Valheim runs great on my pc maxed out

copper plaza
#

its running good for me, but it feels empty and easy compared to valheim

balmy seal
#

Oh mine does too, but it's still a pretty heavy game

copper plaza
#

but i have 7600+4070ti

untold pecan
balmy seal
#

If I make a massive base with max graphics and 5120x1440 resolution it can go down to 40fps, and that's with a 3090.

#

weight limit, combat, building...

#

and im playing valheim without mods

latent wraith
#

I tested it and didn't like the building so I've not tested it more. Might test it again for actual gameplay, that didn't seem bad (but building seemed to be an important part of it so when that's not right for me then the game falls down the priority list pretty fast).

celest wing
#

Bro we were talking about stagbreakers viability earlier. Shit just saved me from dying to two 2 star skeletons and a skeleton archer

copper plaza
#

i sinked 40h in it, i ended somewhere before iron age

#

im not saying, its bad game, but it lacks something for me

untold pecan
#

I got it and Valheim at the same time

#

I like Valheim more tbh

celest wing
#

I've beaten the whole game. It is definitely a massive time sink

balmy seal
#

Valheim?

untold pecan
#

I haven’t defeated the first boss lol I’m still in the forest struggling for stone and leather 😂💀

#

In Valheim. Enshrouded I already have a house

#

Enshrouded is easy but seems like it gets harder later on

celest wing
copper plaza
#

u can just log off and log on and world is respawned so collecting resources feels like cheating, same with teleporting

celest wing
#

I personally don't care about teleporting metals and ores. Hell idm peeps using no build mode because I do it to kill time so long as it doesn't break progression

chilly niche
#

I wish Cheet never existed

balmy seal
#

Definitely a time sink

I'm not up to a 1000 hours yet though
