I can't connect to my dedicated server even with localip.

Well, who is "playfab" and can we contact their "service"?

i suspect steam is at play here somehow

its something on iron gate side

wary musk
#

BTW a bit unrelated but I noticed AWS acting funny the past hour. my ec2 server ssh keeps disconnecting. never happens usually

summer hinge
#

If it is indeed something that is fixable by the devs, we'll likely have to wait for tomorrow. But like I said, I personally don't think it is.

but if I can't get exactly what I want right now, what is the point of living

latent wraith
#

Considering there hasn't been a Valheim patch today (or recently) there isn't any recent changes "on Iron Gate's side" that could have caused it.

wary musk
#

The playfab status isn't working either.

Servers down for everyone? I have a friend who literally hosts a val server out of his house and even THAT one won't work

I'm an expert in the Valheim online server field for 40+ years, and I can assure you this. There is a plug somewhere that simply needs to be taken out, and put back in.

Idk why you would assume an unchanged software is at fault, and not some live service or hardware

CONFIRMED, just worked for me

yeah i can connect now as well

wary musk
#

CONFIRMED AS WELL.. restar the server it should work

zinc locust

didn't even have to restart our server

no they clearly deployed to production at 6pm on a friday and then tokyo drifted into the sunset

For me it took a restart

#

There's also a possibility that its an issue even deeper than playfab. That could be why it's not showing anything on their status page. But that's just speculation.

[Info : Unity Log] 02/16/2024 11:59:03: Backend not retreived yet, checking again in 0.25 seconds... i am getting this issue. I tried restarting server, reinstalling game,

is this a val issue?

It appears that its nothing to do with Valheim directly. There hasn't been any changes on their end recently, so no reason something would break.

Just try to restart the server guys.. it worked after that

well i was sitting for 30 minutes for the eggs to hatch and one of the chickens walked into the fire

It's either playfab, or something deeper.

It could be AWS if playfab is hosted there

because aws sawan increase of 150% of reports

Steam says it cannot register our game with the playfab lobby

kindred crest
#

Ok, now I could connect but it said INCOMPATIBLE VERSION

lol?

solid crown
#

So we still can’t get in

#

So it’s either a steam or playfab issue? It sounded like it was working for a few people again though.

summer hinge
#

Very possibly an AWS problem. I'm not 100% sure if playfab uses AWS, but it's interesting that there's high reports there when this is happening.

raw elk

its working again

i mean it did work for me atleast once

I received this from GTX support

"We are currently aware of this, steam is having some issues at the moment which is stopping servers from working, i have no eta when they will fix it as its not on our side."

It works if you set crossplay off

zinc locust
#

i knew it 😂

wary musk
#

Then it is porbbaly related to aws. steam uses aws. but btw it works for dedicated server with crossplay off

I just had a 2 hour discussion on this topic the other day

hollow wing
#

i was very surprised that you can do anything as a client in valheim

fallen zephyr

TL;DR
we can't prevent it
we didn't build valheim to be a pickup game for random players

i had no issue yesterday lol

latent wraith
#

The server host has full control over who joins their server.

hollow wing
#

yeah but anyone can cheat extremely easily

woven kettle

I keep using the same reference.

  1. valheim server is your own personal house
  2. do you leave the door open for anyone to enter?

here people easily cheat their stamina, spawn in items and a bunch of other things

hollow wing

what would be better is not to share items between worlds

woven kettle
near furnace
#

there are so many arguments for things. server-sided clients. not server sided clients.
cheat prevention etc etc

but it all comes down to we can't stop it

I quite like being able to use the same toon on several worlds.

woven kettle

you can though lol a mod stops cheatengine so very easily

fallen zephyr
hollow wing
#

even in minecraft you cant spawn in items like this

near furnace
#

just use Unity cheat engine

light moat
#

It’s a co op game, not competitive. So there’s no huge need to prevent cheating. This is just my opinion. It’s pretty much exactly like Terraria.

latent wraith
#

Yeah, "cheating" is kind of hard in a single player/cooperative game.

woven kettle
#

Well no point in arguing with ya, you guys are 100% set on your ways and it won't change.

latent wraith
#

The only person you can cheat in such a game is yourself.

plush umbra
#

Is there a single game that people can’t cheat in?

light moat
plush umbra
#

Didn’t think so

merry pebble
#

It IS a singleplayer game with co-op option, and if you invite people who you can't trust to not cheat then thats on you frankly 😄

hollow wing

#

My favorite is people who pay others real money for items that have been "farmed" for them

You can't do that in Minecraft. It's not possible.

#

Not like people can predict who will cheat or not so that's not entirely fair. Also I don't think it would be that hard to make it so players with mods that don't match the server can't connect to it. Other games have done it.

I played with a few people on a fresh server. A few people decided to bring some endgame gear from another world, but we just shamed them into not and that was the end of that

Well.....yes?

hollow wing
#

theres just no reason to pretend its a good decision

latent wraith
#

No reason to pretend, no. :p

candid basalt
#

This is why I don’t play with complete randos

#

If you don’t have a basis of trust, don’t play with them

light moat
#

In my humble opinion, I’d really rather Irongate focus on other things instead of extensive multiplayer features. I see where the frustration is coming- but it’s important to understand the kind of game that Valheim is and how it’s supposed to play. Just play with people you trust, and if someone breaks that trust, then it’s best to move on.

does anyone know what distance standing torches will frighten boars at?

Wow.. that is a really good question

errant forum
#

whats the issue with cheating in valheim if its soley a pve game lol

latent wraith
#

A pve co-op game at that.

worn ledge
#

If you agree with the people youre playing with that you want to start fresh and progress through the game as its meant to be played, cheating is obviously a violation of that agreement

#

Will an enemy continue to destroy builds after I die and get off a loading screen?

frozen void
#

I can understand if you're trying to play regularly and people are spawning stuff in, but if you play with people who cant follow rules you set forth, then...

frozen void
latent wraith
#

If you can't agree on how to play a co-op game you should probably not be playing it together, at least if the disagreement about how to play leads to the level of frustration the people coming here frequently to complain about it show.

worn ledge
#

if you wanted to have a friendly race for example with friends to see who could kill a boss first, someone cheating in gear to complete it quicker is again a violation of that basic trust

glass parrot
exotic cradle
#

If I make a server and I invite complete randos without pre-planning or checking, and they decide to cheat, I wouldn't really expect dev support about it.

latent wraith
languid root
woven kettle
#

I agree partially, but cheating is like money, if it's on the table the temptations can be too great.

latent wraith
#

In a game meant to play alone or with a few friends/family I'd say that's a perfectly reasonable stance. And not having characters bound to worlds is a specifically wanted feature, not just a lazy oversight. You're supposed to be able to go to any world with any character (as long as the host of the world wants you there).

woven kettle

hi guys I have a question about valheims progression more specifically plains weapons, is there any need to make any of them?

latent wraith
#

There's no need strictly speaking, you can use any weapon you want in the game, but the ones that are direct upgrades are obviously better than their predecessors.

worn ledge
# woven kettle Devs can't seem to understand this and instead make an argument that you should ...

I do agree that you should be able to trust your friends. If you cant help but cheat, do it on a solo world, not on a world with friends. And if you still feel the need to cheat on a coop world, ask yourself why, is the game play loop too boring for you? do you just not like the game? Do you value cheating more than the trust of your friends? im not accusing you of these things btw these are general questions

near furnace
rustic compass
#

because I had a bad mountain boss spawn that was surrounded by mistlands and frostner seemed to work fine against the seekers

rustic compass
#

eww no

latent wraith
#

Frostner is very good against seekers.

rugged pulsar
hollow wing
rustic compass
#

because from what I noticed normal damage isnt very good against seekers not sure what other sort of badies are there

worn ledge
#

its not cheating persay, but there are exploits to get around things like the metal/portal restriction which while techincally allowed by the game, are obviously cirventing a core mechanic of the game

hollow wing
#

i have metal/portal restriction disabled after Mountains.

rugged pulsar
hollow wing
#

not gonna spend 3 hours transporting 60 ore to make a gate.

rustic compass
#

I'll leave the bug abuses to people who know how to do them Im just experiencing the game for now

worn ledge
#

so I think its fair to say that anything to circumvent standard mechanics like portals not allowing metal, or encumbrance, is an exploit

hollow wing
#

my experience with seekers is not great. was fighting them yesterday with a friend, died against a 1 star one. They just destroy you without Bonemass, especially star ones, although people recommend using Atgeir secondary attack to stagger them. Had over 200hp

#

and i have fully maxed out padded armor with lvl 2 frostner

seems like a fair challenge for my hard+ run

im just grabbing the best (bruh) weapon for melee, spear

I liked the iron atgeir in the plains for keeping the pesky goblins at bay but the damage was very lacking

#

I tried messing around with all the weapons have most of the weapon skills at 30ish

hollow wing
#

ive become a bit more brazen with the frostner so i go round killing loxes like nothing

#

goblins too are easy to handle with a frostner.

rustic compass
#

ye but theres like 20 of them in their lil camps

yeah, the problem there is that they run around and come from different directions.

rugged pulsar
#

yes, should work perfectly

#

oh oh also is there a light armor equivalent inside the plains? because i like the move speed of the lighter armor sets

copper lynx
#

If you squint your eyes and don't get hit, no armor kinda looks like a light armor

paper roost
rustic compass
#

but plains mobs hit like trucks

paper roost
#

yeah, they do its always about finding balance/ fighting skills. i had a lot of fun with flesh rippers, but you have to use the kick ass well with good timing(similar to parry)

copper lynx
#

That's a fun set.
If you want a bit more durability you could swap out the helm for heavier armor

Keeps most of your speed, but you do lose the set bonus

rustic compass
#

I'll just make plains armor I think for mistlands because I took way too much damage when I had to run through the mist lands with a fenris set

#

because Im not very good at the whole fighting thing. I dont die too often Im just running away all the time haha

Just bonemass and hide for 8 mins 🥲

its more about strategy especially in plains. if you see lot of torch guys, use fenris set or potion, if you see spear guys, use heavy armor or root chest etc

Where do you hide Bonemass though? He's big.

So everytime I see a convo about weapons here its always the same few - aetgirs and maces with some sword sprinkled in here and there along with spear. What about the Demolisher?

also is there any difference in where I place my windwill?

#

@paper roost Ya the bubble isn't perfect tho... it gives you reation time true. But OP? I think for the initial start of the fight ya. But after a bit, you have to back out if you start getting too many adds. And once a soldier comes in, its a race before one runs out of eitr.

rustic compass

also whats the best food combo for end of plains?

frozen void

Depends on how comfortable you feel and your playstyle

If you're not very experienced in plains, I'd say use your best stuff but after a while you might want to switch to more sustainable stuff. i.e Bread, lox meat pie, sausage (yes, still fine), fish wraps if you fish, cooked chicken meat (if you can get it).

That serpents can be rare had not even occured to me until my brother joined me on an adventure and - as usual - as soon as we left shore a serpent attacked, he said it was the first one he ever saw. At plains stage. Same world, we having played about the same amount of hours. Isn't RNG fantastic!?! 😄

now i gotta sail to mistlands to get my items back. not even sure how im gonna get there without getting harassed by ticks. and i have to climb too. then probably end up dying cause the seekers in there

I had the same experience because I had to travel through mistlands to get to moder

that sounds not optimal

Grab your root harnesk and ticks are much less scary. Some fire resist for the gjall and you can handle quite a bit in the mistlands.

Better find a good spot to do the breeding, though.

I had the luck to find a Draugr village close enough to the altar to get the whole pack bred and following me.
But it took me multiple days and killing off the entire deed and boar population of that piece of meadows 10 times to breed them.

Now i do suppose the pack could be assembled or gathered at the altar

You could set up a breeding pen near it if you want to.
Then summon Yagluth, kite him near it, let him destroy that fence and face his doom....
Whuhahahahahahah cough ha!

paper roost
# rare birch Was gonna try that but they run out of stamina too fast to make the ride. I can ...

A mounted lox has 240 points of stamina which drain at approximately the same rate as a player's while sprinting, however leveling the Riding skill both increases the speed of a ridden lox as well as reducing the amount of stamina drained. It is important to note that a lox's stamina regenerates much, much slower than a player's, one point is regained roughly every 4 seconds while the creature has been recently fed, and one every 10 seconds while it is hungry.

paper marsh
#

damn so it takes 16 minutes ish for it to get all its stamina back while fed? that's rough

Riding skill is worth. I got mine up to 10 on a toon

is it worth taming animals?

because I had enough meats from the tamable animals thus far

paper marsh
# rustic compass is it worth taming animals?

debateable. I didn't tame any on my first playthrough and didn't have any issues.

Personally I'd say Boars aren't worth it, ||wolves || are worth it if they're 2 star and you use them in combat, ||Lox || are worth it if you make a plains base and want protection and easy ||lox || meat

||Chickens ||are very worth it for food

pliant hatch
regal spoke
#

indeed Thorin

rustic compass
#

I mean from invasions I havent had any problems

#

so from what Ive seen chickens are the only ones that are good

regal spoke
#

Perspective

rustic compass
#

because two star wolves sound way too rng to get

pliant hatch
#

Boar are good up to swamp, as you need their meat for the sausages. After that they're not as useful anymore.
Wolves are good base protection and if you manage to tame and breed a large pack, help with bossfights as well.
Lox makes it a lot easier to move large stacks of salvaged metal from the plains to either a plains base or your boat; as you can can still ride them while being very much overloaded.
Chickens are end food up to now, so yes, makes them very useful.

#

Then there's of course the skins they drop.
For boars, the leather scraps are pretty soon useless; but if you got the obliterator at least they're helping to get a nice supply of coal.
Wolf fur is needed for armor, so useful,
Lox pelts make nice carpets in front of a fire place in case you want a romantic evening...... 😉
And chicken feathers are useful for both arrows and the cape.

frozen void
#

pitabred will say boars are op all game long

cause you get coal and scraps for ooze bombs

And this game has been fun so far, even if for 30-ish days in game i had done nothing but hunt animal and de-forestation

#

And apparently there are some trees that are still “too tough”, as if my flint axe aint good nuff

Anyways, copper mining, i hate it, not in the sense that it is a minus point in the game, but in the pure sense of it being the most annoying things to do

odd marsh

iv been there before xD

balmy seal

I think we all have

It takes a long time to mine a single area of Copper, and i can only carry a tiny portion of it and have to lug it way back to my HQ at Meadows

#

God forbid you accidentally engaged Auto-loot, you would have to keep throwing rocks away

balmy seal
#

It's best to set up smelters and a forge right next to the site so you can smelt it all and make stuff right there instead of lugging it back to your base

uncut bough
#

And also the smelting process, i hate it, also annoying. The coal-pumping machine only produce it at snail pace, and the smelter goobles up coal to only produce a single piece of metal

#

In the end it caused more panics for my logistical challenge more than it benefited me

balmy seal

You need at least two kilns

odd marsh

if only theres a way to speed up ingame time, just like how we do in real life to meet tomorrow 😉

uncut bough
#

Before it was so straightforward: wood - flint- animal scraps - stones. Now it is: Copper ore, tin ore, charcoal? Put in smelter : burn more. Out of charcoal? Burn wood : burn meat. Out of wood? Chop tree

#

And by the time i chopped trees it is night time and the annoying grey-mobs started trying to violate me

odd marsh
#

ahh the annoying greydudes. but trust me itll get easier as you progress

uncut bough
#

It is like mining takes a day to get some copper ore back. And then it takes another day to chop tree + watching the smelter like a hawk in case it runs out of fuel, because it cant run without fuel and more ores doesnt mean much when the old ores arent melted yet

#

I only figured out how to repair items yesterday, before that i made so many stone axes and bows and spears

#

Now i am paying the price by having too many junks in chests

don't be afraid to die. Getting into situations that can get you killed are really the only ways for you to learn from those situations and improve. You don't lose anything except for 5% skill points when you die, and at the black forest level, 5% of your skill points is quite small.

you don't have to use your brain, you can just go bash your face against skele swords if you want to

Also how to build house effectively? Most of the pre-built house in meadows are built so awkwardly near slopes that it is so hard to expand domain

#

I used the earth pounder and it was… underwhelming

hot fern
#

you put walls down, and you put a roof on the walls

uncut bough
#

It only turned the rocky area into a smushed earthy crater

odd marsh
#

oh the HOE

hot fern
#

at the beginning of the game i usually build long-houses because they require less support for the roofing

uncut bough
#

That is what i mean, cant built long house because near slopes

hot fern
#

you can build a house anywhere though

odd marsh
#

ya

hot fern
#

just choose any spot, start building a house

uncut bough
#

One side of house has slopes downward, one side is with rocky incline, and i am not ready to move base to black forest yet

#

Too many stuffs to move, too little time to do so

#

And if i break chests with hammer i may lose stuffs inside that chest

#

Note to self, dont use the demolisher near a dvegr tower

#

Gonna be a hell of a corpse runs

i know someone who built his main base in the meadows, its just of a preference in the biome

uncut bough
#

In any cases it would be a lot of effort to move from A to B, not to mention i still have a lot of stuffs that are unaccounted for

hot fern
#

evildog, you are giving a lot of reasons you can't do something, there is only one way to get what you want, and it's what you don't want to do. You must make up your own mind.

Of the early game base builds I have seen, none of them seem to take advantage of raised earth, the best defence

odd marsh
#

raised earth is pretty good defense, but boi they are very ugly xD

silver osprey
#

Moving bases is t that bad and is part of the game imo. Especially once you need resources from various biomes. And you don't have to move everything all at once.

uncut bough
#

Okay i will move, but my friend created that server, so i cant just pop in while he is offline to move base

cosmic oak
hot fern
#

i prefer motes much more than raised earth tbh, motes even do me well all the way through the mist

uncut bough
#

So i will move whenever he is online and he agrees to moving, otherwise he does whatever he will and i will figure it out

@uncut bough if you wanna play badly, there is an option of you starting up a single playthrough as well to play when your friend isn't here, you could at least do the things you wanna do immediately without waiting, and get some more practice with game

#

just a suggest 🙂

uncut bough
#

But then would i keep my entire house layout and what i have gathered

silver osprey
#

So is a hybrid food stack alright? I'm always went balanced but in mistlands there isn't a jerky equivalent that I've found yet.. considering doing hare/salad/ and an eitr food. I haven't messed with magic yet

hot fern
#

what i mean is creating a new character and starting a new world with that character, not the same one

#

a separate playthrough.

#

but, for clarity sake: no, the world file is on your friends computer, you don't have it -- what you can do is join other servers with your character and the character save follows you, but the world doesn't

Maybe i would pass, i will wait for friend and arrange moving with him

uncut bough
#

It is not the same playing without friends yknow, not that fun

odd marsh
#

shi makes me cry ngl. does that mean im lonely? ;=;

uncut bough
#

The entire purpose of me playing that game is to play w/ friends, otherwise i torture myself playing War Thunder

#

it's just to each their own

I can play solo but mostly it is more fun to play with non-rando player who i can easily coordinate with

Me and my chums are waiting for the game to be finished before we do another playthrough. It's so much better with chums

hot fern
#

🙂

uncut bough
#

And bonus friend factor is that while i am walking from A to B i can do small talks that would let off some steams

odd marsh
#

thats nice

uncut bough
#

Whereas if i do that to strangers they would legit consider me to be joker incarnated

hot fern
#

probably not tbh

#

the vcs in this discord are pretty cool, most people that join are chill and stuff

#

as long as it's valheim-related talk

balmy seal
#

The last time I was in there everyone was screaming at each other

hot fern
#

hence "most"

uncut bough
#

Like fighting troll, sure i can fight alone, but it is more fun to have him draw the troll away, while i shoot it with arrow, and both of us scream whenever the troll chases either of us

#

Know what im sayin?

#

Kiting trolls around the meadows and BF are ways to get copper and fine wood before killing Eikthyr, if you didn't know

hot fern
#

there are definitely people that like to argue or just be toxic, like any gaming discord really, but i find them few and far between tbh

odd marsh

You need a role to use them

Otherwise everyone would spam them

I definitely need to know how to mine copper with troll

hot fern
#

why, just do it with your pickaxe 😄

In short, be like these cats

uncut bough

I am tired of spending an entire day mining and hauling a piece of copper back it is just so annoying aofjjsijdjsjss

odd marsh

xD yea do it with your pickaxe like a VIKING! pickaxe

uncut bough

Valheim need to introduce Pick-up truck already

hot fern
uncut bough

I need to haul cargo from A to B effortlessly

lunar sapphire

Did Vikings have pick-up trucks? ThinkingTroll

uncut bough
#

Now they will, nothing a patch cant change

hot fern
#

before pick-up trucks, can we get some iron carts?

balmy seal
#

Pneumatic jackhammers would be a nice addition

lunar sapphire
#

in before add redstone

uncut bough
#

Rifles would be a nice addition

balmy seal

Stray!

Imagine killing annoying deer from far away

hot fern

though it's not a shotgun, it's got the power of a shotgun.

it's like a shotgun with slugs.

whatever you do, don't listen to the haters that tell you that the spear is trash. It's goated!

uncut bough

#

hell yeah

uncut bough
#

Or at least the flint spear in black forest is still good, still one of the best long range weapon with throw ultility

#

At least until i make my Axe or sword, then i ditch spear and go full bow and sword

hot fern
#

RIP spear

odd marsh
#

youll love the other kind of spear, but thatll have to hold for now

lunar sapphire

Spear > Atgeir

I do love me some spears though but in terms of you ditching spears

@lunar sapphire If they would take away pierce resistance on 3 of the bosses, i'd probably main spear forever

Like when you dodge a Troll with your raft in the middle of a small river and forget that it was there next time you pass
