Is it safe to assume that raid spawns disappear? Or could I run into a *fenrir in the woods around my base 2 days later?

They despawn in time

Unless when being alerted.

2 days time should be enough right?

game so hard i feel

languid root
#

And i frankly think their ultimate goal was to kick me ThinkingTroll

merry pebble
# stone mesa game so hard i feel

if you think its too hard for you you can make it easier by changing the world modifiers, they can be changed every time before you load the world

stone mesa
#

but i'm pro gamer

#

can't go lower difficulty

languid root
#

That you'll have to explain to odin himself

stone mesa
#

okay we are so back theres a swamp on my spawn island

old echo
#

urgh got killed by sea snake

merry pebble
#

oh noooooo

languid root
#

don't call it a sea snake please

merry pebble
#

oh yeah, they could sue you XD they already have an advocate/representative

languid root
#

yes, otherwise we will have to sue you, now we are capable of doing this

uncut bough
#

goddamn i hate this game, my ship sank

#

and with that, my entire inventory, sank

#

i literally rage quit so hard

languid root
#

It can't sink, it can float

frozen void
#

ship storage and body both float

merry pebble
uncut bough
#

but now i have no more materials to create another boat, and my death location is like far away

#

like actually at a random spot in the map, i may send a screenshot but the server wont allow me

languid root
#

rage quit it is

uncut bough
#

i am gonna cry so hard

languid root
#

It allows you to send it in screenshots section

#

Think about it this way. You didn't lose, you just couldn't prove to odin you're worth going to valhalla

#

Time to re-prove

What's this nonsense about a lightning staff and a staff that summons treants coming with Ashlands?

uncut bough
#

maybe, but idk what i could have done more in the middle of ocean fightiing Serpent, when the only thing kept me from drowining is the boat

languid root
#

Avoiding a serpent

uncut bough
#

impossible, they come out of nowhere and i cant shake it off

pliant hatch
#

What kind of ship?

languid root
#

They can spawn only at night or during a storm, both already imply to be carefull

exotic cradle
uncut bough
#

well it was at night, but the elders is soo far away how am i gonna do it

merry pebble
languid root
#

i mean serpents are very fast, let's stick to this opinion

merry pebble
languid root
#

why should we compare? Both are extremely fast

exotic cradle
#

He asked what could he have done, I'm replying to him, that he can outrun it because at full speed, the karve IS faster than a serpent.
I don't understand what you're talking about honestly.

merry pebble
#

its a way how to escape the serpents...

languid root
#

I'm trying to create a positive image of serpents, let me do my work please

...Oh right, sigh.

merry pebble

#

i am confused, what do i actually need to do

#

i sail the entire day, from daylight, but then it gone dark and serpent spawn

pliant hatch
#

What's your seed?

languid root
#

Confuse with what? I always thoroughly pick words not to confuse anyone

merry pebble
uncut bough
#

well, i did, but it was like a drop in the bucket. My friend was sailing too and he did say he sailed at full speed, but somehow the serpent caught up

#

i took the serpent to half health before it wrecked my boat and drown us all

languid root
merry pebble
languid root
#

And not during a storm. No serpents in that case

glass parrot
#

When it said targets everything I didnโ€™t think the ballista would target me too

frozen void
#

yeah lol

#

you can use a trohy on it and it'll only target the creature the trophy is from

pliant hatch
#

Or simply don't load it but keep a chest with bolts nearby.
Depending at the size of your base and your other defenses, loading the bolts in the weapon should be possible before a raid hits you.

DRAUGR ELITE

uncut bough
#

ok i still love the game quite a lot, maybe i wont end now. But can i join public lobby with a limited inventory, and then later come back to my friend's server and still have my corpse floating on water?

#

i plan to do some off-time mining so later when i play with friends again, i will have some ores on the ready again

stone mesa
#

i conquered my first draugr village

#

will they respawn

pliant hatch
#

Only if you didn't destroy those piles of flesh they spawn from.

stone mesa
#

very nice

uncut bough
#

can i join another server and the corpse in my old server still remain?

frozen void
#

Yea

uncut bough
#

good, i can join a public server and start again

#

and maybe after a while and coming back to the old server, i can retrieve the corpse

tough yacht
#

if me and my group never travel to the deep north or ashlands then we won't need to make a new world when that update drops right? they will auto update if undiscovered?

tough yacht
#

huge, we have invested a lot into this world lol

slow leaf
#

There is also a mod to force updates even to areas you have explored

tough yacht
#

oh double huge

slow leaf
#

So not something you need to worry about too much

stone mesa
#

nice yea leeches apply 10 damage per sec poison for 20 seconds

merry pebble
pliant hatch
#

And an AoE or ranged weapon

stone mesa
#

stagbreaker big or no

merry pebble
#

it isnt really necessary, you can manage just fine with normal weapons and bow but could be fun to play with

pliant hatch
#

The "trick" is simple: if you don't have to stand in the water, they won't get to you and hurt you.
So ranged or AoE to deal with them, as you can remain standing at "dry" land.

merry pebble
#

oh for leeches its very nice indeed ๐Ÿ˜„

can I breed starred boars to make more of them? (if they're even tameable)

#

hi smiffle!

normal badger
#

Is there really no way to mine ore aside from the surface level deposits?

#

I've always enjoyed the mining and caving process in other games and find it reductive that ores in valheim only spawn in the surface (correct me if im wrong)

#

I just rly enjoy the digging down, making tunnels and stumbling upon ores by accident and wish there were more caves besides the portal dungeons

mystic fog
#

You mean like in dungeons?

#

Only a scrap metal is the only exception in this case

normal badger
#

Caves in mountains for example that look like tunnels

#

I don't get why the game has no tunnels

#

Is it a limitation of the engine?

mystic fog
#

Most likely

normal badger
#

am I the only person who finds that weird, like the game allows so much freedom but when it comes to tunnels it's a no-no

gray nexus
normal badger
#

feels comically inconsistent

mystic fog
#

And yet it's more of engine limitations, The ground will just collapse down once you start mining from bellow

normal badger
#

so there's often more ore below the surface one's that isn't always apparent?

gray nexus
#

They'll have to overhaul the whole game's current system of terrain if they wanted to add tunnels tbh not really worth it tbf

normal badger
normal badger
#

I can still manage a cave/mountain base somehow

gray nexus
normal badger
#

haven't unlocked stonecutter yet but i imagine there's a way

mystic fog
#

unless you make your own tunnel tho

normal badger
#

Well, I've seen people dig below copper and it would still stay in place, i suppose that works as a pseudotunnel

gray nexus
mystic fog
#

quick tip, mine just a long open roofed tunnel and then just place stone plates above so it look like a proper tunnel

normal badger
gray nexus
#

yes, though when you're high up in mountains idk about stone floors but the uncovered wooden floors get covered in snow and it's pretty indistinguishable from terrain (well not really xd but kinda) you can cover the top of the stone floors you place and see how that looks
haven't tried myself

normal badger
#

I've a question

#

so since tunnels don't exist in the game when you dig forward the lowest level of dirt the entire layers above it disappear right?

gray nexus
#

yep

normal badger
#

i wonder if it accounts for the layers above in mining time (thinking what would be the most efficient way to dig a moat/trench

#

cause the best way would be to dig straight down to the level you want and then forward right?

gray nexus
#

yes

normal badger
#

So it doesn't account for mining time

#

that is interesting

gray nexus
#

wdym by mining time. kinda confused

normal badger
#

I mean that you're basically digging one chunk of dirt but the game automatically deletes all the chunks above it (for free) but you still mined only one cause tunnels are impossible

#

how do i phrase this

gray nexus
#

the game doesn't exactly treat the parts as layers or chunks I think, it just stores the height compared to sea level, not sure, but I think
That's why tunnels aren't feasible in current system

normal badger
#

usually the mining time would take into account all the layers above it to make it balanced since it's all getting deleted

#

idk if you get what i mean

gray nexus
#

xd kinda

normal badger
#

will have to test it myself, but it seems like that's the case since the best way is to dig straight to the level you want and continue like an L shape

normal badger
#

this game is awesome

gray nexus
#

true that

cosmic oak
gray nexus
#

I abandoned the v2 and started working on v3 lmao it's been a week of building destroying the same building

#

i decided to use some terrain pillars and the sealed for the extra height in new one

#

it should work out this time

#

last time i was so annoyed by a building, it was the lox breeder

opal prairie
#

Morning gjall!

cosmic oak
gray nexus
#

Mine is actually a building up in air, instead of an open one

#

I mean it has a chimney of sorts to make sure they breed

#

but otherwise closed

cosmic oak
gray nexus
#

yeah with a high roof it doesn't bother them, for some reason their vision height is at the same level as troll's vision height

cosmic oak
#

Their roof is my floor, with the mob bait on my level

gray nexus
#

that messes things up

#

Mine is normal, except for the chimney to deal with vision issues

cosmic oak
#

By vision do you mean line of sight to the mob

gray nexus
#

yes

#

they drop down into a pit, pretty much the same as my wolf and boar breeders

cosmic oak
#

My mob can't see them but they can see it

#

Are you raising the breeder so the calf drops down somewhere?

#

I tried a lot of things and the final version was by far the easiest ๐Ÿ˜„

gray nexus
#

yeah, mine like 28m up high

#

I think

cosmic oak
#

I have a flat breeder floor

gray nexus
#

Yours are kinda genius, mine are simple verticality exploiter lmao

cosmic oak
#

OK so you have seen it

#

It's not that high really and so easy

gray nexus
#

I saw the skeleton one

#

that was genius

cosmic oak
#

Yeah the basic version outpost

#

Spent all this time trying to keep them in, but also out but also don't run away ๐Ÿ˜› If you love your Loxes set them free

gray nexus
#

mine are free except the parents, they even have a lake to swim in

#

furry fishes

zenith ravine
#

give me the ashlands!

fair cairn
#

earleir if you enter public testing

zenith ravine
#

only at the swamps biome atm got plenty of time

gray nexus
#

@cosmic oak for hens I use a somewhat different setup, it's a multipurpose breeder

#

I just need to break a wood floor and place a wood wall using that wood to convert it to a chicken breeder from a egg coilector

#

and for fun I thought, why not use smoke to kill the chickens once they grow up so I added that too.

#

It's not automatic, I need to flip a few doors to let the smoke in once they all grow up

#

but that's easy

near furnace
gray nexus
#

they're in workbench range so shouldn't disappear right

near furnace
#

shouldn't ๐Ÿ˜„

#

haven't tested it myself

gray nexus
paper roost
#

i personally dont do breeders, unless on server with more people, but i like those ideas

normal badger
#

1 star boar x starless boar is 50/50 for the offspring or is it guaranteed to have a star?

paper roost
#

first option

cosmic oak
plush umbra
#

Ah I wanted to say coin flip

gray nexus
cosmic oak
gray nexus
#

i have seen those ideas, the automatic ones where they walk off, so many chickens walk off too often but maybe using your mob idea it could work better ๐Ÿค”

cosmic oak
#

I also tested using the windmill tail to block one Boar pen exit or the other depending on the wind direction. Worked well but it also sometimes gibbed them with the blades, so I got a third outcome for free. Then my wolves came to eat the boar meat and sometimes got gibbed themselves ๐Ÿ˜„

plush umbra
#

This led me to googling โ€œis smoke a gasโ€ I feel like I should of learned this in school

lunar sapphire
#

Well.. it's not a liquid

plush umbra
#

Itโ€™s not technically a gas either

#

Itโ€™s a suspension

opal prairie
cosmic oak
gray nexus
#

hmmm

#

prolly, I am not building any breeders on the new base, mostly due to space limitations

#

otherwise I would have tried

frozen void
#

Im pretty sure only players are affected by smoke

near furnace
#

yeah ๐Ÿค”

#

I think so

lunar sapphire
#

if player dead why so alive?

#

compared to most of the enemies

near furnace
#

Hm..

#

no they die to smoke

#

deer, boar (both tamed and utamed) wolfs, chickens, hens all die to smoke damage

#

greydwarfs don't

even Fulings dies to smoke

I'm early into the game and building a watchtower in the middle of 3 biomes (meadows,bf,mountains) but i can't figure out how i'm supposed to walk into the moutains without freezing to death

aren't meads pretty late into the game

I play valheim with my father and frend of my father and one of my friends and when the demo just released I was playing with my father and whe enters the swamp.

Hey there! Got a question... I recently swaped to the fancy spoiler: ||mistland-pewpew-caster-stuff and tried to be a mighty wizard... well... It feels ok since the fire-staff does huge aoe but it feels weaker even though I already got it on lvl 20 or something.
At the end it's a question of playstyle but talking in numbers... what is stronger? Melee or caster?||

uncut bough
#

why is it so ridiculous to build ship,i have to build it near workbench and if i build it on ground, it is essentially beached and cannot be put to sea, and if i run to near sea i have to build a workbench nearby

#

and also they can't be "destroyed" by hammer using RMB, it just not possible, so i have to literally demolish it by swinging axes and all that

just break your workbench, move it out to sea, build ship, return workbench to base. build a dock

the day of setting sail is behind me, i died to the serpent a while ago

now i have to re-gather the good stuffs to build 2nd ship, and now with my bronze ax gone with me to a grave out of ocean, i have to mine more copper to build the ax again

toxic rose
paper roost

it was mentioned many times, during the other biomes, the slots are ok, starting with mistland, its absolutely not enough, but it is as it is and everyone has to deal with it. my way is take only needed weapons and few extra pcs of armor, potions and hammer

whats better full carapace or carapace and root chest piece?

paper marsh
# rustic compass whats better full carapace or carapace and root chest piece?

Up to preference on Normal difficulty

but I'd say root chest. Root chest will give you a bit less damage from seekers who are the main enemy in mistlands, but you are slightly more vulnerable to Seeker soldiers and a lot more vulnerable to Gjalls unless you remember to bring along fire resist potions which gives you fire resist just as much as if you weren't wearing root chest

#

On Easier difficulties I'd say carapace for sure, on harder difficulties Root is a must

Jiroc's second season of survival server had a challenge with three Elder spawns, lots of trolls, and attending greydwarves. at one point I had thour Elders and 21 trolls in the area at the same time.

rugged pulsar
#

weapons are unbalanced in valheim, i mean which type of weapon would you use entire playthrough? spear or mace?
meadows: spear wins due to its high damage against every enemy there (including boss)
black forest: its equal fight, maces against skellies, spears against trolls
swamp: do i have to explain? mace wins
mountain: mace wins due to its capability to fight on not flat ground (spear cant attack object that are below your belly for example bone piles or wolves under you) + frostner
plains: mace wins, you literally get blunt + pierce soo... (also plains dont have any spears)
mistlands: i havent played them yet but i can say that frostner is useful against seekers compared to fang spear from mountains
overall spears have better second attack which makes them more useful for stealth attacks, but youll eventually end up without weapon

paper marsh
#

Maces are a bit too strong considering weaknesses/resistances across biomes. I think the bigger issue is bows and atgeirs tho, because they fundamentally change fights to be trivial rather than having a bit better dps

the alternative attack is just broken. Staggers and pushes enemies around in a 360 degree angle around you. Melee attackers don't get a chance to touch you and by the time they run at you again you've regained the stamina needed to redo the attack

i may or may not need to sail to get there, idk yet

Make sure you have your food setup going good. You will want deer stew, minced meat sauce and carrot soup or similar when you go into the swamps at first, and it will help a lot with the Elder as well

wicked kestrel

im growing carrots so thats probably perfect

frigid gust

I'm a bit of a broken record, but food should be the top priority for every new biome ๐Ÿ˜‰ I'd rather use gear from two biomes back than food from two biomes back.

wicked kestrel
#

im currently using boar jerky instead of minced meat sauce tho, is that fine?

frigid gust
#

It's reasonable, and it's efficient for using resources. The downside of balanced foods like jerky is that it has a lower total number of stats that it gives you compared to more specialized foods.

paper marsh
#

Boar Jerky is good, more of a discount food tho. When you go to swamp I'd go for minced meat, deer stew, and carrot soup. Or if you're feeling a lil risky you can swap out one of the health foods for a stamina food like queens jam

wicked kestrel
#

ah

paper marsh
#

I guess I should say YOUR jam ๐Ÿคญ

wicked kestrel
#

i guess ill use cooked fish instead of minced meat, gives a little more of both health and stam

paper marsh
#

yea cooked fish is great

wicked kestrel
#

though it lasts 5 minutes shorter and lacks the extra 1hp/tick

frigid gust
#

If you have access to that, that's even better ๐Ÿ™‚ Just eat according to what you're planning on doing... the odd excursion and farming, jerky is fine. Taking on the boss or going through a burial chamber and you might want something with more total stats, that kinda thing.

wicked kestrel
#

mk, ill keep that in mind

#

is there anything in particular i should bring when i try my luck with the elder?

frigid gust
#

Not really. He resists piercing damage, so fire arrows are good but you won't want to use an atgeir or spear, but other than that you should be good. Make sure you clear out any enemies around his altar that might hear your battle because they will all come join in, and they are all on his side ๐Ÿ˜‰ Even if they're from the Swamps.

paper marsh
#

fire arrows are a safe and efficient way to kill him

#

"safe" hehe - you're never safe in Valheim

wicked kestrel
#

i havent used fire arrows much so i guess i should make some then

frigid gust
#

Make sure your equipment is upgraded too, not so much for damage but for durability. You don't want your finewood bow to give out in the middle of a fight.

wicked kestrel
#

yeah it's upgraded no need to worry about that

pliant hatch
# wicked kestrel is there anything in particular i should bring when i try my luck with the elder...

Not in particular about weapons, but check if you can mine out the area under the altar of the Elder.
The heat of the flame is enough to give you a rested bonus, which makes health and stamina recovery a lot easier during that fight.

On top of it, you can use it later as a mini-base or portal hub when you want to explore more.

And last but not least; the additional attacks of the Elder are only going horizontal. Because of that, when you're in a trench or even under the Altar, the additional attacks won't be able to reach you.
You could even create 4 different exits, to make it easier to get behind the Elder and preform another sneak attack at his back; thus dealing extra damage.

wicked kestrel
#

yeah i dont really care about the strategies id rather learn those myself

paper marsh
#

I'd say it's also more fun to just fight a boss than to try and make trenches and stuff where he can't possibly hit you

Normal way is making sure you have skeletons always around and make them hit things, also shield them with the staff of protection.
Have your own shield of protection break helps as well.

Cheesy way: greydwarf spawner with skeleton archers behind an earthen wall with an earthen wall in front so nothing can get close to the archers and the archers stay put and then you afk nearby.

#

You can kill your own skeletons with either butcher knife or friendly fire.

Dig a trench and get archers, with normal skeletons you can't afk, with archers you make sure they can shoot over the earthen wall and nothing can get close to them. You then put your ass down behind the skeletons and afk and go watch a movie or do something else.

Make alts, use your dead raiser to pump out three where you want them, then log out. Skelebros hang out on the server after you log out on your alts. Lots of butcher knife repairs later and your base is defended. Rinse and repeat for as many defenders as you need/replace. Server resets suck if you go too big with this exploit. The food use is limiting as well.

Im expanding my storage on my main world atm ahead of going into mistlands, and im just trying to see if i got all new items thought of:
Yggdrasil wood
Black marble
Sap
Lantern
Soft tissue
Blue jute
Extractor
Black core
Sealbreaker fragment
Scale hide
Carapace
Mandible
Bilebag
Blood clots
Eitr
Wisp

Am i forgetting something other than foods?

pliant hatch
#

I think you missed the spring; but not certain if you can craft it or find it.
I thought you can find it in the occasional chest.

frozen void
#

Ah true. Thought it was plains level

paper roost
#

i personally love the trophies from mist to hang on, couse they are nicely visible, unlike some other bioms

pliant hatch
frozen void
#

Eitr yeah, just checked

#

I dunno if ill include it though, but well see

pliant hatch
#

Might as well add the various trophies to your list.
Especially the soldier ones could be important.

frozen void
#

No, trophies go in their own sections

pliant hatch
#

Guess you got that covered then. ๐Ÿ˜„

frozen void
#

My storage has separate walls of chests per biome, and then trophies are separate from that. Metals are are also separate, and foods are in the kitchen

pliant hatch
#

Was about to mention metals; but you got that covered as well, I notice. ๐Ÿ˜„

frozen void
#

Yeah. Also no new metals in mistlands

pliant hatch
#

Nope, just new plants, but my guess is you got that covered under "food".

frozen void
#

Yea

paper roost
#

i was so disappointed when i hang the drake trophy first time, so small

pliant hatch
#

OK, silly one - which you most likely have covered too - but armor and weapons go on Armor stands and Item stands?

frozen void
#

Yeah. I have an armor stand for each set in my bedroom, with a wood beam behind each for extra weapons/tools from same biome. Or on item stands on wall behind

merry pebble
paper roost
#

its a drake, should be bigger ๐Ÿ˜„

pliant hatch
#

You should've seen the Queen trophy.
That one is outragiously large.

regal spoke
#

I was wondering

paper roost
#

i ve seen all the trophies :). the thing is, i love dragons, they are my most favorite mystique creatures, so i think you understand my feelings about that trophy

pliant hatch
#

I guess you hope we get a Wyvern in one of the last biomes?

Perhaps as a "Fyrewyrm" or "Frostwyrm"?

paper roost
#

oh, that would be awesome

#

just please not that tiny trophy anymore ๐Ÿ˜„

pliant hatch
#

I think somewhat between the Drake and Moder would be nice.
Wyverns are draconoids, but not dragons after all.

night aspen
#

Is there a overwiev about enemy weakness?

merry pebble
#

well you could argue that Moder could be called a wyvern, at least if you go by the basic distinction that wyvern hhas 2 wings and 2 back legs and dragon 2 wings and all 4 legs

pliant hatch
#

Yeah, until you find out I've been killing the Dragons and Wyverns in Sacred: Underworld so often, I lost count.......

I used this to come up with a cheat sheet on average weakness, resistance, and immunity for every damage type we can don

bright rock
#

How does one enter a sealed tower?

pliant hatch
#

I build a staircase around the outside.

#

Could build small platforms and jump on them as well.
At some point there are openings you can use as entrance.

bright rock
#

Tricky

pliant hatch
#

Yeah. I tried the platform approach first; but falling down - even with the feather-cape - wasn't fun.

Switched to build staircases; or better said, ladders; and that worked. But was still quite some work to get done. And at some point you will be attacked too; making it even more complicated.

No worries, it's probably not perfect but the stuff is definitely in there.

night aspen
regal spoke
#

Correct. They have no weakness according to the wiki

vocal rivet
#

Oops, had that backwards.

frozen void
#

They take reuces fire and 0 poison i think

regal spoke
#

That's okay. I was gonna chime in on a similar note

#

Frost would be the only optimal element

frozen void
#

Lightning too, technically, but lol

vocal rivet
#

Only the Elite have fire resistance.

regal spoke
#

Then the wiki is inaccurate

frozen void
#

So the wiki is wrong then yea

vocal rivet
#

No, that's literally what the Wiki says.

frozen void

Valheim Wiki

Draugr are aggressive creatures found in Swamps and in Draugr villages, Sunken Crypts and sometimes Mountain towers. They are ancient undead Vikings that have since become bloated in appearance...

vocal rivet
#

Huh? I swear I just checked that. Dang, wrong again.

regal spoke
#

/creatures also reflects this

vocal rivet
#

Ah, Damage is where it's wrong. Ugh.

regal spoke
#

I guess it makes sense. Always wet in the swamp

frozen void
#

Yeah

frozen void
vocal rivet
#

The downside of having the 'same' info across multiple pages. It's hard to keep track.

#

Right, that's fixed. Oie, it's never-ending.

regal spoke
#

Right as rain in due time

vocal rivet
#

No, there are literally HUNDREDS of pages and I doubt there's more than 10-15% that are absolutely perfect.

opal prairie

#

Eh, we'll get there. Maybe once we get to 1.0 we can finally nail it all down.

frozen void
vocal rivet
#

Hm, the Wiki channel is hidden and only for editors but do we need somewhere where people can report errors? Or is there an existing channel that makes the most sense for it?

frozen void
#

Any channel with wiki in the name will make people use it as #valheim-help dogkek

vocal rivet
#

'the Mist does not appear when either low to the ground' - Wow, I see what you mean.

regal spoke
#

Could the report button be distributed for the pages. But somehow be linked to the page for easier tracking

vocal rivet
#

No idea, as with pretty much everything else there's no perfect solution.

frozen void
vocal rivet
#

Heh, easily done. Now if I could only work out what the end was supposed to be!

did they fix the lag problem when hosting a server on ur own? havent played in a while

vocal rivet

Server lag is due to the connections between individual machines, not something IG can 'fix'.

I have had a few people approach me from this discord to try and sell me streamer stuff as well ranging from art to viewers. But idk if theyโ€™re worth reporting since the people that have msged me have taken no without too much hassle usually

twin cape
#

Whatโ€™s the best bronze weapon I should make?

night aspen
#

I can never fully read my dreams ๐Ÿ˜›

merry pebble
twin cape
#

Already got the axe Iโ€™m looking for something to take down tough enemies with ease

gray nexus
#

use bow

merry pebble
#

then sword or mace, you could also make atgeir but that takes a bit of practice to use efficiently and you cant have a shield with that ๐Ÿ˜„

#

spear is also an option if you want but as with atgeirs it can be tricky to master

twin cape
#

I just made the atgeir imma work on the sword next idk if itโ€™s worth my time or not to make the bronze shield or not considering Iโ€™ve never had mine break once

merry pebble
#

its not about breaking the shield, its how much you can block with it

#

also if i may ask, did you sail somewhere already?

twin cape
#

?

merry pebble
#

i am asking because there is quite an easy way to get a pretty good weapon early in the game and you would need a boat/raft to get it, but i donยดt want to spoil too much

twin cape
#

This is my 2nd server Iโ€™ve made it to Bronze Age in both and yes Iโ€™ve set sail a ton of the map has been explored on both servers

#

I donโ€™t care for spoilers. I do got a question though someone dropped me a meginjord, fishing rod & a cultivator are they safe to keep Iโ€™m not sure if they where duped or how they where obtained via the player that given them to me Iโ€™m not sure if the devs care about that type of stuff and I donโ€™t wanna get in trouble

frozen void
#

Theres only the rules you set yourself

merry pebble
#

you can just keep them i think

frozen void
#

Plus you obtain all of those in black forest anyway

merry pebble
twin cape
#

No

merry pebble
#

oh, and did you encounter them while sailing? (they are the ||little floating islands with some rocks, trees and barnacles on them||)

twin cape
#

Nope not on either worlds

merry pebble
#

well if you do then you can make a swamp tier knife from the ||chitin|| that the|| barnacles|| drop when mined

twin cape
#

My friend told me to avoid the swamp until Iโ€™m in full bronze he said itโ€™s a bad place

frozen void
#

It is, but most people would probably tell you to use troll armor instead

twin cape
#

I got that too

merry pebble
#

oh indeed it is, but for this knife you donยดt need to go there, you can make it with stuff you already have (exept the ||chitin||)

frozen void
#

Poison resistance mead is important too

merry pebble
#

the troll/bronze armor debate is quite frequent ๐Ÿ˜„ i personally donยดt like mining bronze much (not that i really hate it but the troll leather is quite easy to get) so i opt to making the troll set

twin cape
#

How do I get this knife ur speaking of and how do I get the poison resistance mead u speak of

frozen void
#

Mead base is made in the cauldron then processed in the fermenter

#

Cauldron also makes food, so if you dont have it and carrots, youll need it

light moat
vocal rivet
#

I'm sure plenty of us do.

merry pebble
#

i like the look of it too ๐Ÿ˜„ the troll one is just easier to get imo

twin cape
#

Do u mean the butchers knife or the bronze knife?

twin cape
#

U said I need a knife something related to swamp & chitin idk

frozen void
#

You dont need the chitin knife

merry pebble
twin cape
#

Alll I got rn is the bronze sword artigr and bronze axe and bronze armor set as well as troll set

finally my gear is fully iron maxed out at lvl3-4

How much iron do you have left? Because you're going to need at least 100 for the Plains level gear, plus a few other things...

twin cape
#

Iโ€™m looking at the items in my inventory some say -move speed does that only apply when I got them in my hand or does it also apply when theyโ€™re in my inventory

# night aspen guess i am ready to farm silver xD

pro tips:
find silver first, mark it on the map ( because you can use megingjord when you search for it )
when you start mining use antler pickaxe ( and place a workbench near the silver vein ) to mine ground under the silver then use iron pickaxe to destroy one silver part and it all should collapse this way you wont need to come back to your base to repair your iron pick and you can mine it faster
