Rip
I feel you ๐
I checked stats but I can't find ||Time spent at Wisp Fountain trying to catch own Wisplight||
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?
they should despawn in the morning,
thanks

hello everyone
Isn't it that you need to get the role "greydwarf" to be able to do that? I'm not sure how you get it, maybe it's an automatic process that's a bit slow? You could ask the mods via modmail
ah no worries
"Greydwarf: A role users gain automatically after chatting a while."
(from the faq)
nah you dont need greydwarf to post there, used to be to join voice chat, but not any more
then what does greydwarf give?
nothing anymore. the bot that gave it is not here anymore anyway i think
still on my first run, day 350, maxing out my last iron stuff, hope thats not too bad ๐
i also love to build and gardening
so basically it says you were here "pre-hack"
I did not abandon ship! 
Greydwarf is survivor role
i had it but i lost it bc of the hack ๐
"last iron" is a relative term. I'm at day 1698 and gave my buddy the assignment to go find more iron.
lost in the great hack of 24
i was a well-behaved greydwarf
ooooh, you were kicked?
does a well-behaved greydwarf throw stones or not?
haha ๐ meant couse of upgrading my iron equip lvl3-4ish, to get rdy for next areas
only at those who deserve it ๐
ofc he does๐คช
joghurt.
i don't really understand what happened but had to return to the server for sure
if you didnยดt left yourself then you were kicked unfortunately by the hackers
game so hard i feel
And i frankly think their ultimate goal was to kick me 
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
That you'll have to explain to odin himself
okay we are so back theres a swamp on my spawn island
urgh got killed by sea snake
oh noooooo
don't call it a sea snake please
oh yeah, they could sue you XD they already have an advocate/representative
yes, otherwise we will have to sue you, now we are capable of doing this
goddamn i hate this game, my ship sank
and with that, my entire inventory, sank
i literally rage quit so hard
It can't sink, it can float
ship storage and body both float
the materials for the boat may be lost, but your inventory should be still in a gravestone
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
rage quit it is
i am gonna cry so hard
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?
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
Avoiding a serpent
impossible, they come out of nowhere and i cant shake it off
What kind of ship?
They can spawn only at night or during a storm, both already imply to be carefull
Ride in the wind direction, the karve is faster than a serpent at full speed
well it was at night, but the elders is soo far away how am i gonna do it
go in day, unles there is a storm they cant spawn in day
let's not highlight the flaws please
i mean serpents are very fast, let's stick to this opinion
but nobody oposes that... she just said that the karve is faster than serpent at full speed...
why should we compare? Both are extremely fast
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.
its a way how to escape the serpents...
I'm trying to create a positive image of serpents, let me do my work please
serpent in trench coat
...Oh right, sigh.
its fun to stick to personas like this but please donยดt confuse new players...
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
What's your seed?
Confuse with what? I always thoroughly pick words not to confuse anyone
if you go with karve at full speed with the wind in the back you will be faster than serpents, go with that or you can shoot them with arrows while going full speed
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
Just arrive to that place at daytime, collect everything and reach the land before sunset
i can only suggest to try again, serpents can be quite rare spawn sometimes, you will not always meet them
And not during a storm. No serpents in that case
When it said targets everything I didnโt think the ballista would target me too
yeah lol
you can use a trohy on it and it'll only target the creature the trophy is from
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
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
Only if you didn't destroy those piles of flesh they spawn from.
very nice
can i join another server and the corpse in my old server still remain?
Yea
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
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?
Correct
huge, we have invested a lot into this world lol
There is also a mod to force updates even to areas you have explored
oh double huge
So not something you need to worry about too much
nice yea leeches apply 10 damage per sec poison for 20 seconds
be sure to bring poison resistance mead to swamp ๐
And an AoE or ranged weapon
stagbreaker big or no
it isnt really necessary, you can manage just fine with normal weapons and bow but could be fun to play with
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.
oh for leeches its very nice indeed ๐
he's true i just outranged them
Yeah I figured that out now thank you
You can even use your melee weapon to do that while efectively standing on land
ya i was using a flint axe
in swamp?
shouldnt you have bronze already?
i'm the runner (i love exploring the map and not progressing)
i might need a whole guide on this game bro
There are guides at Steam. Both beginners guides as well as building guides.
Any ideas when new content will drop? Planning to take paid weekends to get total immersion with friends
some time between now and july
corpse run my beloved
Added a building idea for ppl who have a base in the Plains ๐ฆ ๐ #building-ideas message
can i spawn eikthyr as many times as i want from 1 altar?
I just killed him 6 times in a row as well lol
Stocking up on pickaxes since hardcore death is rough
I just had a thought
can I breed starred boars to make more of them? (if they're even tameable)
omg really
time to hunt for one
when new update guys?
No release date yet
Sometime in the first half of 2024
Yeah I meant no exact release date if that was what you were asking
2 star log troll says hello
Pls valheim gods buff the mistlands poison axe
Iam begging you ๐ญ
@rugged crest @near furnace @lilac mauve @fading spindle
<_<
seriously?
Is randomly mentioning all the devs acceptable ?
Dont think so
No it isnโt if you want something to be changed suggest it in #suggestions
not really
Whats wrong with the poison axe? Poison tick too slow?
I personally like it as it is
Hmmm never tried it yet
Don't ping developers.. it's against the rules
hi smiffle!
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
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?
Most likely
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
For copper, the deposits go as deep as 8m, try to dig around the surface deposits and uncover all of it
You can't dig tunnels, and that won't/can't be added this late in game and devs have explicitly stated they won't be adding that (that said you can kinda excavate the insides of the big rocks for a small place underground)
feels comically inconsistent
I see
And yet it's more of engine limitations, The ground will just collapse down once you start mining from bellow
so there's often more ore below the surface one's that isn't always apparent?
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
hm I can live with that, I mean I haven't seen all of it yet but the physics more than make up for it
There are ways to get around this though right?
I can still manage a cave/mountain base somehow
for tin, only the surface one
for copper, it's like a huge stone deposit and most of it is buried underground tbh you only get a little amount of copper from surface
if you completely mine a copper deposit, you should have around 90-110 copper from a single deposit
haven't unlocked stonecutter yet but i imagine there's a way
unless you make your own tunnel tho
Well, I've seen people dig below copper and it would still stay in place, i suppose that works as a pseudotunnel
stonecutter only really unlocks the stone pieces, yeah you can build underground, it just won't look natural like a tunnel is what I meant
quick tip, mine just a long open roofed tunnel and then just place stone plates above so it look like a proper tunnel
yeah cant place the dirt and get the natural grass/snowy terrain i guess
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
oh that's nice
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?
yep
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?
yes
wdym by mining time. kinda confused
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
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
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
xd kinda
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
well, whatever the system is I think it works out wonderfully
this game is awesome
true that
I ended up enlcosing my smelting room, no exhaust issues
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
Morning gjall!
Its most raised earth though
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
#mods-issues for mod related help
I found that I could put a full roof on if it was high enough. I have a couple under my buildings at ground floor height. The open exit just wide enough for the calf is the only exposed bit
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
Their roof is my floor, with the mob bait on my level
that messes things up
Mine is normal, except for the chimney to deal with vision issues
By vision do you mean line of sight to the mob
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 ๐
I have a flat breeder floor
Yours are kinda genius, mine are simple verticality exploiter lmao
Yeah the basic version outpost
Spent all this time trying to keep them in, but also out but also don't run away ๐ If you love your Loxes set them free
give me the ashlands!
youl get when everyone else does
earleir if you enter public testing
only at the swamps biome atm got plenty of time
@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
just need to remember to pickup the stuff every now and then so they don't dissapear?
they're in workbench range so shouldn't disappear right

i personally dont do breeders, unless on server with more people, but i like those ideas
1 star boar x starless boar is 50/50 for the offspring or is it guaranteed to have a star?
first option
It's like you're gassing them ๐
Ah I wanted to say coin flip
we don't talk about that
I tried having them fall in a fire too
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 ๐ค
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 ๐
This led me to googling โis smoke a gasโ I feel like I should of learned this in school
Well.. it's not a liquid
Put it under pressure. ;p
If you give the mob enough room to walk back and forth that would help with two outcomes
hmmm
prolly, I am not building any breeders on the new base, mostly due to space limitations
otherwise I would have tried
Im pretty sure only players are affected by smoke
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
Huh, interesting
Fish don't
fish and birds are a diffrent kind of entity entirely in valheim ๐
No smoked herring then ๐
Iโm having issues locating trolls Iโm in the Black Forest but still canโt locate any what should I do
Nah, fish dont turn into lox in this game
Just keep looking. Took me a while in this playthrough
They're the big blue guys
The stompy type
But they are surprisingly sneaky ๐
Try and sail the coastline, you'll often find troll caves along it and trolls in or nearby
The big blue berries
Iโll try I found one cave but it was a burial ground
Its the ones with big round entrances
They're different, bigger and clunkier
Taking a bath while contemplating their existence and then they get plinked in the head.
nah, I kill my chickens this way, smoke definitely affects atleast tamed animals
pretty sure other enemies too
ah smiffe already stated that

mistlands irl
Mistland is fun place to be in
I have seen deathsquitos fly along an inner beam of a roof full of smoke and die
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
someone said i need a wolf fur cape but aren't wolves in the mountains to begin with
When updt I am really bored
Frost resistant mead
aren't meads pretty late into the game
Mead or bonfire path
Nah
I alr start making meads at the medows
In*
Also, swamp is before mountains
Yh that too
i've never found the swamp in my 30hours of playing
Yes, without poison resistance sad to walk in swamps
Advise: donโt build in swamps
i've seen stuff that very much resemble a swamp but not the actual biome
I hate swamp
Lox cape
Advise swamp builds are neat
Why? Nice treehouse on immortal trees
Even when am max lvl I still am scared of swamp
And portal on crypts
Just get the frost staff
U beem trhough everything
had to google what a lox is lmao
Yea I do get portal but like I have ptsd of swamp
isn't plains later than all of the above biomes
Big furry animal that u need bow to kill
True
Yea, but its actually not thatbhars
Yes, it's the 5th biome.
But anyway, just make the potions, because you need silver to make the capes, and u get that from mountains
i need lot's of arrows if im ever gonna survive this, seemingly infinite dwarves keep swarming my watchtower and it's not even a raid
does hard combat increase enemy spawns? i thought it only improves their ai
When will the new biome come?
Probably
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. Evrything went well for the first time but the second time he died I ran away he kept die ing whe eventually took us 2 hours to get his stuff back
The biome is already out BUT, theres nothing in there
It was crazy
So no reason to go there
Neither, just makes them stronger.
Unless you want lots of sutrling cores
First half of this year, nothing new news
not really sure about the spawn speed, it seems so, but cant confirm. not just ai, its their speed, hp, damage they deal and damage you deal to them
Harder, better, faster, stronger.
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?||
You don't have to go full-on one mode, I use a mix of both ^^
||The main advantage of a caster is that attacks do not consume stamina||
there is magic in this game?
Yeah but my Problem is that you still need HP and Stamina ||and 100 Caster-Energy to summon skeletons - so 2x Eytr food|| and than you have to choose between HP and Stamina. And the low Armorvalue is another problem in the mistland^^
actually don't answer that
you'll see. Maybe yes, maybe not ๐
Dont click spoiler tags honey
my bad
Main problem of spoiler tags: no description for stage
i find it hard to resist clicking on a spoiler tag tbh
That's why I use a mix of both,|| I use the carapace chestpiece with the magic pants and hoodie, that way I get a bit of armor and still enough eitr for casting stuff ^^ I usually use salad/misthare/seeker aspic and just run around casting||
Hm... sounds interesting... I'll check that... but I accidentially run into a two star seaker ||with my caster stuff on|| and was a oneshot ๐ ||And since the skeletons are often useless or 100km behind they weren't able so save my live...||
||I don't use the skeleton staff, just fire and frost, frost to slow them down a bit then spam fireballs ^^|| <- spoilery for endgame
2 star is deadly in any gear
you sure? Even if you block on point?
ah... ok. Then ||less than 100 Eytr are enough as well||
they will blast through that block like you were holding paper
and wearing paper
and if you have less than 100hp probably all that too
so... dou you have a number? How much damage does a 2 Star Seaker hit for?
Isn't better ||to use caparace helmet, instead of chestplate? They all have same armor, but helmet have -0% movespeed, and eitr hood +20% regen only ||
it has different attacks but they all scale from the regular ones like all starred mobs
||talking about fashion, I would use the caster-helmet for style :-D||
wiki page will have the numbers
Function over fashion or fashion over function
Well.... I was one of the kids who bought the body-parts in Need for Speed Underground first.... so.. ๐
got it, seems like a parry block could be enough for a 2star seeker (not soldier)
yes but the ||hoodie ||looks 1000% better >_>
For playing Valheim, you should to be alive, not having beautiful corpse...
seeekers actually do similar damage as soldiers, the difference is, seekers are easier to counter with armor couse they do pierce damage
I can do both ^-^
So the best gear is enough to parry block both. Good to know.. endgame spoiler: ||the caster stuff will be put into the chest otherwise I'll ruin my stats again ๐ ...||
Live fast, die young, leave a beautiful corpse. But Iโm old, slow, and ugly
basicly, yeah. just a hint, i dont use best def armor in mistland ๐
So what do you use? ||Fenris Stuff for fire resistance?||
combination of armors, most frequent as i saw here. fen. leg, root chest and best stat helmet
as soon as i hear the trumpeting, i use fire resist potion ๐
so... pierce resistance from the root chest, fen legs to be at 0% fire since you have a debuff from the root chest and a random helmet? Interesting... I usually used the latest gear + fire as soon as the big boy is nearby. Combined with 2x HP and 1x Stamina Food and bonemass ability
Oh... and sword and shield ๐
block skill helps you win that equation as well
yep
but all assuming you find a single 2 star on it's own and willing to take on
leggins wont negate your fire weakness, you need to use potion. but since ticks and seekers do pierce damage, its your best protection you can get there (eventually oyu can switch leggins in the dungeons for better stats)
yep... another enemy would be hard to take ๐
btw i always have extra armor types in my inventory to switch for whatever i need
Every time I find a 2 star, there is a crowd of 0 or 1 star next to him
easy solution, kill babies first, than deal with daddy ๐
Easy solution just scream'n'run
killing the easier targets makes ita whole lot easier deaing with the stronger ones
its the number 1 adventuring rule
Always kill the adds
How? I usually have the full armor, sword, shield, axe, pickaxe, hammer, bow, arrow, maybe crossbow and bolts, belt, light, 3 stacks of food with me... And want to collect stuff ๐คฃ there is no room for additional amor
- meads
i dont wear too many weapons, nor the pickaxe, unless i m aiming for the materials. most of the time i dont have even bow, which takes at least 2 slots. 2 weapons, sometimes shield, hammer, thats all
Oh yes + 4 slots for portal XD
lol
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
Previous tier items in chest: it's your time!
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
well sure, but then i am missing a lot of copper, and level 2 leather suits doesnt bode so well, comparing to my previous level 2 bronze armor
It's really just putting a work bench on a shore, build the ship on water. Done
I have no idea why you're putting it so complicated than it actually is
but it is just annoying, i got my base in the middle of the map so the nearest shore is like 2-3 minutes run, and if i have to move there i will have to relocate base
make portals
Which are available fairly early
the ingredients for portal sank with the ship
when it comes to transporting ore, portal home and bring a wagon to the dock
Bronze armor almost useless, take too many copper, trolls much easier to farm and you could have normal movespeed
then take that L with the ship and start over
Nothing wrong with bronze armour, frankly.
i heard some folks say my corpse in the ocean wont despawn, and i remember before i bit the dust i did collect the material of the shipwreck when it is destroyed
so now i think that is the next destination after i finally recover
10% of move for extra 10% armor, its everyones choice
Dying is part of Valheim. We are dead already. I make enough mats for a replacement boat before I head out into the unknown.
Killing trolls unlocks troll events as well no?
will corpse disappear tho
I lost three karves trying to get my corpse back the first time I discovered swamps
Only after you loot it
Corpses will despawn but your gravestone will remain indefinitely unti it's emptied.
Thatโs what I meant
yes
you need to kill elder too
If you leave an item on gravestone, you can make a graveyard by dieing in the same area over and over
Is this in relation to troll raid trigger?
Yes, both conditions must be satisfied
Perhaps player based raids being toggled has a different effect. I'm getting troll raids while not having killed Elder
If you was in multiplayer then somebody could have key or power and will trigger event
I see. Thanks for insight
have you touched any items from elder or learned the power? that's enough
any way to get dragon tears before moder ?
no
No Larsi and I don't believe anyone on this run have touched Elder yet
You could skip any boss except moder
I found a yagluth spawn right at the edge of Mistlands, is there a rule about how close boss spawns can be to eachother? It would be funny if yaglugh and Queen were next to eachother.
dont think there is
Yes they can
but also they cant meet unless queen bugs(heh) out
oddly, that's more likely than being next to eachother
yeah, they wont fight each other though
So 2* soldier vs yag fight is out of the question?*
imagine having to fight queen & yag same time
bosses only fight players and tames
Rip the dream
tried on the Odins Cape for the first time in months... its looking really dated compared to mistlands-gear. Could use a refresh.
The beta only cape? Well, that's hardly surprising. Not sure they'll bother updating that when only a handful of people can actually use it.
That is more of a wall piece than a backpiece.
I was bouta ask what it was lmao
Nothing we can get now 
Looks pretty cool
Maybe we'll all get one like it when the full game comes out
Because aren't we still technically
Testing the game out
No. The game is testing stuff on you
I always make it, only time i dont wear it is between getting wolf vloak and chest piece and after getting mistlands cloak, causenthe effect is just so good
when I start a new playthrough, I always die more than a few times forgetting that I can't featherfall. 
Good to know I'm not alone in that regard.
that's why i dont start new worlds haha
Looking for Yag's altar is really making me explore this world. With the side effect of every fuling village I see is getting razed to the ground. Leaving the crops behind for the others who are still in bronze age hehe. Again, a little sad we can't burn buildings down...
No burning down villages yet, come back with the staff of embers and you can resemble burning down villages.
different elemental laws here
just realised rain doesn't affect anything but player builds. Would be interesting to add a burning state for build pieces. Probably take a LOT of processing recources.
I believe they did try fire spread in a very early build and yeah, melted CPUs all round.
Valheim life hack: want lots of coal? Burn down your house!
lets see what fire land brings to the table
lag. it will bring lag to the table. ๐
wonder if there will be mountain biomes inside ashlands like there is now
Volcano sub-biome? ๐ ||kidding||
and a new light source maybe
Ashlands.
Fire Land
It's already in-game, you can see for yourself.
land of Fire
There won't
what's the earliest ingame time you can sleep?
"You feel cold", that is when
no, that's actual night time (6pm/18:00)
you can sleep much earlier, I think earliest I've done is 2:30pm (14:30)
the game will let you sleep long before its actually night, but not anytime, so I'm trying to find where the cutoff is
good afternoon
hmm that does give the irl time per hour as well as the irl time before sleep is allowed so I can probably work from there to find the exact sleep cutoff time
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
there are difficulty settings?
World modifiers
oh
Can make it a cake walk or super hard. And everything in between
I like the default settings ๐
I do normal with no raids on my new game I started
you can make mobs do like more damage?
yea hardest difficulty doubles mobs damage ๐ along with making them faster and more likely to have stars
And gives players only 70% damage
Right now I'm playing on a server that has the hardest difficulty, 0.5x resources, Very frequent raids, no portals, no map, and hardcore death penalty. 'tis a rough one
have you considered cbt? sounds about as fun
That's a strange response.
sorry :d
my friend says that for no reason all the time and i guess it stuck with me
Very fun for anyone looking for a challenge. The skill resets killed my gaming stamina. I just need to get gud I think
Doesn't sound quite as depressing so a bit boring
like i can understand the appeal but perma death is a big no no
oh server lagged and I died
yea it's rough. In Valheim hardcore is a bit confusing bc it doesn't like delete the server, but it does reset all your skills and delete everything in your inventory
I have done some permadeath runs but those were honestly easier bc they weren't no map no portals
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. It was all about building earthen walls to push them back and kill them from out of reach until I pushed the wall to the treasure (an overpowered lox cape). Took a long time.
I'm trying to do this run without using bows or atgeirs but man not using bows is rough
I'm just struggling to get my footing with getting my block skill high enough along with using the best food and shields available. And until I get that footing down I'm failing parries against stronger mobs
DUDE that is suicide ๐คฃ
deathsquito's sitting between me and my goal, nope.
Can't snipe it.
Drakes pelting me with frost damage, Nope.
Can't snipe it.
Gjall blowing my base out of the water...
NOPE - CAN'T SNIPE IT!!! ๐คฃ
Oh hell no dude ๐
I need a "The Bee's are NOT Happy" for this one.
Snail must be into some S&M.
spears. make a harpoon for good spear practice and to kill birds... not that you need many feathers
I mean I got a spear ๐
Can't do too many repeated long range stealth kills tho. And gotta go into the fray to get the spear back. That said I will be indulging in ||magic || once I get there
Also so far the other server players (thanks Germ <3) have been taking out the big bad trolls. Sometimes with me distracting them and running them in circles
Good man!
...
Or Snail ๐คฃ
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
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
don't touch my bow 
#savespears
Also I highly prefer spear over mace on mountain. Mace doesn't get extra damage against anything but Golem, and spear actually has better ability to attack above and below you (and flying enemies) since it can be thrown. Spears are also GREAT for dealing with incoming wolves
Axe
fists
Also makes it the best weapon in the game
no one's gonna talk about two handed maces (stagbreaker)
I use axe and spear rn
my first playthrough was spears, second maces and third one swords
They're cute, but I hate seeing them used for cheesing dungeons
dungeons aint that hard
I tend to swap weapons regularly. Being locked to one is kinda boring
you can just be careful and youll be fine
they can be to new players to valheim, new players to this sort of game, or people playing on harder difficulties
I'll be trying out knives next playtrough, knives, bow and magic when I get there.
knives are a ton of fun. No movement penalty, quick attacks, low stamina usage, jumping attack, and backstab damage
im trying knives on this playthrough and loving it
Abyssal dagger? ๐
not yet lol, we started this playthrough today me and a friend, we've killed eikthyr but thats it so far
on my first run i stuck with swords for ol reliable, on my group world i did maces and clubs and got frostner, this one im doing knives
Last night I had just thrown my spear away but saw a 1 star deer ripe for the taking. So I ran over, jumped on its back, and started alternative attacking it with my axe until it died
LoL
i feel like the further you get in game, the more lobotomized the deer ai gets
I'll be going for that asap and I'm willing to cheese to get it in black forrest^^
The moment I have a Antler pickaxe I'll be hunting that chitin.
(Actually I might even bring chitin over from another world.)
I'm hoping to get a harpoon soon. Getting serpent meat without a bow is rough
Haven't sailed yet tho other than a 30 second raft trip
why no bow
i used spear on mountain
i threw my spear on mountain
i no more spear
machine-gun attack with a javelin. does damage, though not much, but has a high rate of fire
High rof makes good use of limited dps windows
gotta be careful.
I definitely try to make sure dragons are uphill from me when I throw a spear at them so it doesn't slide down the mountain after hitting. And only throw it when they stop so I make sure I don't miss
With high spear skill and an upgraded spear it's pretty good. Bow will still always win out once you get the bow skill going tho
as a bow user, can confirm at 80+, it's a machine gun
it uses to be worse too
back when level 100 bow meant 0 draw time
only the small firing animation
Having just tried out the Atgeir in a recent run. I can see Snail's reasoning for not using it. Takes a lot of challenge out of combat.
are they that good..?
they are
They are
and once you get to the mistlands atgir you will basically butcher EVERYTHING in the game unless it is flying
Atgeir stagger lock is real. Almost feels cheesy to use
himmin afl?
Atgeir has that 3x parry that's awesome if you git gud
I have been getting better at parry against multiple mobs. But with atgeir it only lends to more stun lock
Spin to win
Reeee
I still like sword/mace and board best for overall survival
Mistwalker really made mistlands easier so far
something Im going to try is a first shot with arbalast then dropping it for melee attacks and reloading later
Tried the atgeir, didn't like it.
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 like it for cutting grass
The meat tenderizer tactic
I think farming is the only thing I'll use an Atgeir for moving forward.
Demolisher could be my favorite thing though. Absolutely destroying dverger towers is lulz
I need that blue jute to decorate my castle sorry bros
Yeah, you can stagger fulings with a level 1 bronze atgeir. Itโs awesome. Just run stamina foods and youโre winning. Just donโt try and stagger a 2* berserkerโฆ
whats the fun in that though ๐ญ
I remember watching a vid of creating a mini earthwall in plains and sitting inside with an atgeir and hitting the fulings through the wall while they're unable to get through
I'd rather just fight them ๐
destroying and not repairing, can't relate ๐
Efficient material acquisition sighted
I do minimal repair work just put my portals and a chest down to get the copper scraps
heh. I destroyed my trophy chest and was immediately assulted by an explosion of skulls, eyes, serpent heads,. shaman shrunken heads.... you get the idea
You got a lot of head(s).
huh. 14 tears and 20 torn flesh. 6 queen drops. no wonder m y chest is full
one wonders what a 'queen drop' will become to be relevent for ashlands.
maybe itll become 'the queens ovipositor' for the 'grub hatchery' for a new insect-inspired equipment line. Looking forward to that probiscus sword ๐
hl2 antlion balls
maybe something that will give you a chance to get your items back when you fall into lava
Serpent heads are hard to find
not as rare as golumn trophies, but did you mean the drake heads?
Serpents can be hard to find but their trophy does have a very high (33%) drop rate
Nah serpent heads. Managed to get a golem head. Still haven't gotten a serpent . I'm gonna be looking for all the fishes soon so hopefully can get a few heads for bait
just gotta drag them to the shore or maybe kill them by lunging at them to get the trophy
my issue with the serpent heads is just getting them to spawn
same
Although I more want serpents for early game plains tier food (think it's plains tier?)
Kamap singing off for today, see gjall tomorrow probably.
Have a nice day Kamap!
What song are you singing us?
They say carrying some valuable stuff (dragon eggs, metals) onboard helps a lot, at least if not, it has this psychological effect to it which helps to believe it works
lullaby of dead greyling
That's... incorrect.
i already have my trick of turning my wisp light off while im hunting them but i will give it a shot lol
Let's not keep perpetuating myths, eh?
when you go to mistlands you DO need to take 5 or 10 blackmetal.
no new wood type in mountains
you can just go straight from bronze to blackmetal with the axe i think lol
but what actually helps is to find a good spot for them to spawn, in the ocean, but not far from land, and if there's already a spot which spawned it once, probably worth checking it more
you need iron pick for obsidian though
OOH. just started the THEY WERE BROS event. last time I had it it was bugged.
That's a scary raid when not at the level/progress to be facing them.
TIL bats take spirit damage
destructive raid, to be sure. troll with a club helped for a bit
Not that it really matters... a stiff wind kills them ๐ I had so many bats die on a bonfire of mine during a raid that they broke it
im still waiting for the angry bee swarm event. ๐ฅบ
true, i light a bonfire before afking on my gd farm just for fun, sometimes i come back to a broken one with leather scraps
Windmills as well, they take out skeeters for me all the time
Tribute from Tenacious d.
i just hit the bat and somehow it didn't die to my frostner maybe coz i hit a lot of stone too
that's why i noticed the spirit damage
@cosmic oak used shamans as bat defence, that's by far the most genius one i have seen imo lol
a caged shaman
Fuling or greydwarf?
greydwarf
That's a hell of a trick getting that shaman up high like that
caught a 3 quality trollfish :)
i think he said he raised the ground under it, not sure but definitely a great bug zapper
works as advertised
Wolves are wild.
Unless you tame them, yes
I haven't even gotten leather armor or explored blackforest but i already managed to enclose 2 of them until i messed up big time
oh, i found a new biome. got dead trees and stuff, a troll went in and started fighting the local fauna
Yeah, the Swamps are a bit dangerous at first ๐ It's one of the largest difficulty jumps for most new players
neat
well i snatched some of the loot of the things the troll killed and noped right out lol
Turnips should be your priority next time you go there, but make sure you have good food and poison resist potions ๐ It is always raining, and being wet kills your stamina regen rate.
yeah i noticed the troll got poisoned from one of the things it murdered
It's dangerous times for a troll
if i snagged a second bloodbag i couldve made a frost resistance mead base.... whatever i need that for
Time will tell
well ill return there at some point, i dont think im ready yet
I will say Swamp is the next place you're supposed to go once you finish up with Black Forest. I wouldn't go to anywhere but Meadows/black forest/swamp until you've conquered swamp
alr
i should probably make my way to the elder then
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
I'm a bit of a broken record, but food should be the top priority for every new biome ๐ I'd rather use gear from two biomes back than food from two biomes back.
im currently using boar jerky instead of minced meat sauce tho, is that fine?
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.
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
ah
I guess I should say YOUR jam ๐คญ
i guess ill use cooked fish instead of minced meat, gives a little more of both health and stam
yea cooked fish is great
though it lasts 5 minutes shorter and lacks the extra 1hp/tick
If you have access to that, that's even better ๐ 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.
mk, ill keep that in mind
is there anything in particular i should bring when i try my luck with the elder?
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 ๐ Even if they're from the Swamps.
fire arrows are a safe and efficient way to kill him
"safe" hehe - you're never safe in Valheim
i havent used fire arrows much so i guess i should make some then
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.
yeah it's upgraded no need to worry about that
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.
yeah i dont really care about the strategies id rather learn those myself
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
yeah, i mean i get trying to do silly stuff like that if youve already killed the boss before but i havent
At least the first time I'd just want to fight him the "natural" way and then see how the fight works.
precisely, anyways i think i have to sail, there doesnt seem to be a land connection to the elder which i can take
often isn't
dang, 24k concurrent players on steam right now, not bad Valheim!
man I hate this keyboard I gotta get used to it. Keep hitting the wrong keys
No! Dead game!
I think you made a typo.
It's "Ded game"
Devs took their millions and abandoned the game ๐ ||kidding of course||
ded gaem
Literally picks you up from where you were slain and forces you into the game.
\o/ I don't usually post, so hi. I made my first seed post today. It's NIMBUS, and I think it's pretty freakin' cool.
If you see a 2* troll, RUN lol Those suckers are fast.
oh so they get faster in higher stars too
Well good luck with that, as ever hostile creature in a two mile radius will come over to find out who's making that noise and trying to kill you after.
I have 1,123 hours in Valheim, so I can respect that. Most of my playtime has been figuring out how to build fast bases and learn the nuances of the bosses and mobs of the world. I've played on friend servers, but overall, it's been base building and sailing in solo worlds.
neat
i still havent done any sailing, really. i made a boat once but that's as far as ive gone lol
Happy Heiming ๐
Iโve taken up very hard difficulty lately and itโs a lot of fun
now ive mapped out the edges of my starting island as much as i can without running into the swamp i think
Am I the only one who charts every *resource on my map? I use RB for raspberries, M for mushrooms, scientific notations for ore, houses, bee hives, etc?
Thank god for the game because irl they would have never picked my weak ass to fight the forsaken.
I did at one point but then I realized it's not much use to me. I find enough resources by exploration anyways. And some things like bee hives aren't any use to mark since you can just grab them as you go by
Only in the beginning myself. More pins = more lag. Also why pin beehives?
For sure. I mark where I found them, and them X them out as I've claimed the queen bee. I like it for other stuff because I can find my "herbalism" path to run when I need to go "grocery shopping." lol
It makes me feel like I'm mapping the world. I didn't think that it'd add lag. My rig's pretty decent for Valheim.
I mark ores i know ill want
Yeah, the biggest ones I map are the big groups of berries (5 or more) and red mushrooms in the beginning
That makes sense, yeah.
I found moder location and three dragon eggs on the starter island is that rare
Lemme grab a screen of my main world rn and show you how my brain works LOL
I'd say that's pretty good luck yea
That makes two of us. I expect there re more who would share that fate. ;p
I tend to find the moder eggs on the mountain that the boss is located so itโs not that crazy but still good rng
My mountain is huge
ive got a lot of mountain on my starter island as well, i havent explored it though because I doubt i could handle it yet
#screenshots message
Screenshot of the main base location I have with my BF marked with my ADHD/OCD urge to chart everything. I know how it looks LOL
Kinda looks like my maps.....
I'd show the marks on my map in my current playthrough - but I have no map ๐ญ
๐
I'll show a world view one of that same map, then I'm getting back to my solo world.
And I always wonder why I was trying to mark things when a copper node is that close to a patch of blue berries, the description of one is partially hidden by the marker of the other.
I'll do CU/BB, example, for overlapping resources. One pin to make it visually easier.
#screenshots message Worldview
See you, Bye Bye? ๐
CU is the scientific symbol for Copper, and BB for blueberries ๐
CU for copper, "Tomb" for mines and FE for random iron, SN for tin, AG for silver, etc.
Glad we don't have silver or Gold nodes yet. Or iron mines.
Otherwise you'd end up with lots of AG, AU and FE. ๐
That may confuse the crap out of some ppl.
"Engines running at 300% ADHD capacity, sir!" ๐ซก
I had a GMTA feeling for sure.
And, the notes transfer via the cartographer's map in case my BF wants to see my progress, too.
Just keep in mind, when you remove a marker you need to upload your new map and your BF doesn't upload his version, only "read" yours.
Otherwise your removed marker will appear at your map the moment you update his progress to your map.
For sure. I was always updating the map. We've been on other games, so we haven't played our shared world in months. BG3 got in the way, and now he's on Helldivers 2.
Well, if it's just you, things are easier for sure.
Is root chest or wolf chest better? I like the pierce resistance but the higher armor might outclass it? Not sure
I think the root one is better.
Root chest for me
on mountain wolf chest is better because not many mobs do pierce damage. In Swamp, Plains, and Mistlands root chest is really good and I would take it over any other chestpiece. It may be swamp tier but that pierce resist is godly
Okay perfect. Rocking wolf/drake helmet/cape/legs and root chest it is
any news on the update? i wanna wield an axe and sword duo
You may want to replace some parts for the Fenris later, as that gives you a speed boost.
I just can't remember which part it was, though.
Comes out first half of 2024 thats all we know
bruh feels like we been waiting forever
All fenris parts give +3% speed each. so +9% for the whole set. Plus if you're replacing a metal armor that gives -5% movement speed it's quite the difference
they can only slow down after a full release, cant be slacking on early access
probably a good thing. Means the biome will be fleshed out and have less bugs than if it was released 5 months ago as a messy unfinshed thing
perfect timing if it comes as soon as my semester ends tho
With their teaqm size and no corporate sponsorships, I am impressed and patient with the speed of release. Everything has meshed together so well with little fight back from community (that I've seen), and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.
any of u seen the show 'vikings'?
oh my pike spoke to me
So swap the wolf legs for fenris legs? That would give an 8% change in speed
ye. Movement is really good.
It's up to you though, if you wanna be fast to evade attacks or if you feel a little more unsure and want some higher armor from the wolf legs
Most people go Metal helmet, root chest, and fenris legs when they go to plains. But it is all up to preference
Helmets don't give any speed penalties for any armor set, so if you want to use a mixed set with more armor the helm is usually the first piece you want to swap out.
Yea helmet you usually want to keep as the highest armor metal version
Kinda like what I did as a kid; Pyjama pants, T-shirt and a plastic Viking helmet and claiming I was a unbeaten Hero.........
Guess art does imitate life at some point.
They won't implement that kind of dual wielding
they def should tho
Likely will just be dual wielding one type of weapon, like the current skoll and Hati
Not really
I believe we've had a few teasers of ||dual wielding axes||
Not even likely, that is what we're getting. They explicitly teased the berzerker axes as such.
no shield just raw doggin em fights yk
since new biome im guessing new boss as well?
i am guessing the server is safe again?
hi does upgrading staffs reduce magic costs?
We goi g FERAL VKING! Mode! NOW frenzy mushrooms when?
No. Just ups durability and damage
hmm is it worth it?
Upping || magic skill || lowers mana (eitr) usage
Eh. Depends on how attached you are to resources. I'd say upgrade everything, it's the last biome of the game currently anyways
I mean i guess eventually if you get enough refiner eitr but im kinda low rn
If you want to use them for the boss fight durability can get real rough
Prob get all the stuff you want before upgrading
Even a maxed fire staff might run out of durability if thats all youre using against the boss
nah im not gonna solo it using magic
whats the best way to level up blood magic?
Normal way or cheesy way?
either :)
Find a greydwarf spawner, dig it out and summon non archer skeletons
how deep are we talking
So deep they cant get out and your skellies cant reach the spawner
Taller than a brute
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.
Ah that one's even better lol, didnt think if an area for them too
so just roll till I get 3 archers?
Yeah, 2 works as well but 3 will speed it up.
oh I guess I forgot to ask the real question here is it even worht leveling up blood magic haha
Yes, every level will increase the shield the staff of protection gives and the skeletons will be sturdier and do more damage.
im gonna do the dig a hole way that sounds a bit easier
Bonus at 100
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.
even faster way is summon an archer there, push him to the corner and let the enemies hit your bubble, dont summon more than one skelie
well im not gonna afk im gonna keep spamming blood barrier as well
Donโt think it make skellies sturdier
True it might just be damage.
Then just getting 3 skeletons whatever they may be is good.
the greydwarfs wont spawn fast enough to make it more effective
Prob better if you can get multiple spawners like in swamp where there is 3-4 together. More if youโre lucky
Can the spawned skeleton attack past a barrier
How do I unlock stone structures?
Nikki and Billieโs VS challenge seems pretty cool tbh
It happens that the archers miss and having and extra archer there it happens less.
yes, but in the meantime you get hit to the bubble and get the skillpoints as well
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?
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.
Ah true. Thought it was plains level
i personally love the trophies from mist to hang on, couse they are nicely visible, unlike some other bioms
It's crafted from Iron and one of the items you listed.
Might as well add the various trophies to your list.
Especially the soldier ones could be important.
No, trophies go in their own sections
Guess you got that covered then. ๐
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
Was about to mention metals; but you got that covered as well, I notice. ๐
Yeah. Also no new metals in mistlands
Nope, just new plants, but my guess is you got that covered under "food".
Yea
i was so disappointed when i hang the drake trophy first time, so small
OK, silly one - which you most likely have covered too - but armor and weapons go on Armor stands and Item stands?
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
its not small, its perfectly adequate size XD
its a drake, should be bigger ๐
You should've seen the Queen trophy.
That one is outragiously large.
I was wondering
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
I guess you hope we get a Wyvern in one of the last biomes?
Perhaps as a "Fyrewyrm" or "Frostwyrm"?
I think somewhat between the Drake and Moder would be nice.
Wyverns are draconoids, but not dragons after all.
thats my love talk ๐
Is there a overwiev about enemy weakness?
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
Yeah, until you find out I've been killing the Dragons and Wyverns in Sacred: Underworld so often, I lost count.......
๐ค
Wait......
๐ค
ooops......
runs
There's a creature wiki
can you link it?
you have weakneses/resistances listed on each individual enemy page on wiki
tyvm
I used this to come up with a cheat sheet on average weakness, resistance, and immunity for every damage type we can don
How does one enter a sealed tower?
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.
Tricky
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Damage has them all listed.
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.
Thank you. I've been known to do things the hard way. Lol
No worries, it's probably not perfect but the stuff is definitely in there.
Draugr will take normal 100% dmg from any weapon? so they do not have weapon type specific weaknesses?
Correct. They have no weakness according to the wiki
Oops, had that backwards.
They take reuces fire and 0 poison i think
That's okay. I was gonna chime in on a similar note
Frost would be the only optimal element
Lightning too, technically, but lol
Only the Elite have fire resistance.
Then the wiki is inaccurate
So the wiki is wrong then yea
No, that's literally what the Wiki says.
Huh? I swear I just checked that. Dang, wrong again.
/creatures also reflects this
Ah, Damage is where it's wrong. Ugh.
I guess it makes sense. Always wet in the swamp
Yeah
I just checked that one, was about to say
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.
Right as rain in due time
No, there are literally HUNDREDS of pages and I doubt there's more than 10-15% that are absolutely perfect.
Feel like Bastian Bux?
Eh, we'll get there. Maybe once we get to 1.0 we can finally nail it all down.
I noticed an error on the mistlands page earlier when i was looking at items. In the notes section, the 2nd of three, the sentence just seems cut off. I think its meant to include that the mist goes away abovw a certain height too
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?
Any channel with wiki in the name will make people use it as #valheim-help 
'the Mist does not appear when either low to the ground' - Wow, I see what you mean.
Could the report button be distributed for the pages. But somehow be linked to the page for easier tracking
You're not wrong.
No idea, as with pretty much everything else there's no perfect solution.
Yeah i was scratching my head at that. Seems like whoever wrote it got bogged down at the () and forgot the rest lol
Heh, easily done. Now if I could only work out what the end was supposed to be!
@near furnace Your have a business mail?
The company certainly do. It's on their website.
evening
did they fix the lag problem when hosting a server on ur own? havent played in a while
Server lag is due to the connections between individual machines, not something IG can 'fix'.
Sorry if this isn't the right place to report, lemme know if I need to do it somewhere else
Pinging modmail does nothing, you need to send it a pm.
Big thanks!
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 theyโre worth reporting since the people that have msged me have taken no without too much hassle usually
Done. I'll go back to lurking forever now
Just report them
eh imo it's always worth reporting if they're using manipulation tactics. Some more vulnerable people get a ton of money taken from them through that type of scamming
Iโll keep that in mind
Always worth telling a mod so people stop soliciting where it clearly isnโt condoned
Whatโs the best bronze weapon I should make?
I can never fully read my dreams ๐
Axe
i would say sword or mace if its your first playthrough, and you for sure want axe for choping wood ๐
Already got the axe Iโm looking for something to take down tough enemies with ease
use bow
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 ๐
spear is also an option if you want but as with atgeirs it can be tricky to master
I just made the atgeir imma work on the sword next idk if itโs worth my time or not to make the bronze shield or not considering Iโve never had mine break once
its not about breaking the shield, its how much you can block with it
also if i may ask, did you sail somewhere already?
?
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
This is my 2nd server Iโve made it to Bronze Age in both and yes Iโve set sail a ton of the map has been explored on both servers
I donโt care for spoilers. I do got a question though someone dropped me a meginjord, fishing rod & a cultivator are they safe to keep Iโm not sure if they where duped or how they where obtained via the player that given them to me Iโm not sure if the devs care about that type of stuff and I donโt wanna get in trouble
Theres only the rules you set yourself
you can just keep them i think
Plus you obtain all of those in black forest anyway
so you know about ||leviathans|| and that you can mine ||chitin||?
No
oh, and did you encounter them while sailing? (they are the ||little floating islands with some rocks, trees and barnacles on them||)
Nope not on either worlds
well if you do then you can make a swamp tier knife from the ||chitin|| that the|| barnacles|| drop when mined
My friend told me to avoid the swamp until Iโm in full bronze he said itโs a bad place
It is, but most people would probably tell you to use troll armor instead
I got that too
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||)
Poison resistance mead is important too
the troll/bronze armor debate is quite frequent ๐ 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
How do I get this knife ur speaking of and how do I get the poison resistance mead u speak of
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

Does anyone actually prefer bronze, with the exception of cosmetic preferences? I might be the only one who makes and uses bronze, only because itโs so neat looking lol
I'm sure plenty of us do.
i like the look of it too ๐ the troll one is just easier to get imo
Do u mean the butchers knife or the bronze knife?
?
U said I need a knife something related to swamp & chitin idk
You dont need the chitin knife
oh i mean abyssal razor, that is a swamp tier knife (meaning it does enough dmg in the swamp that its considered viable there)
Alll I got rn is the bronze sword artigr and bronze axe and bronze armor set as well as troll set
How do i dance?
Available from black forrest.
That's usually how I head into the Swamps at first. Atgeir, bronze buckler, and bronze axe and/or sword.
indeed, but i would personally consider copper knife as a BF tier ๐
Sounds good. Dont forget pocket portal and meads
True but if you can swing an abyssal razor in black forest that's nice.
Abysal razer is about balanced against mountains ๐ค
but you can make one with black forrest level of workbench
Is there a way to remove pins off my map in on the Xbox version
i saw the ashlands twitter post, it looks so cool i dont even know what to say about it. its just truly amazing
finally my gear is fully iron maxed out at lvl3-4
guess i am ready to farm silver xD
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...
Iโm 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 theyโre in my inventory
oh well, i just farmed two fully long boats ๐ so i still got like 15stacks
The penalties (and benefits, depending on the gear) only apply when the items are equipped.
still be carefull tho ๐
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
From Grasland and Black Forest i had like sprint skill 60, when i finished Swamps, i just got skill lvl 30 left xD
how did you get sprint 60 in black forest
i travelled alot xD
understand
or should i say fled
first time playing valheim?
does blood shield work with your defence or not?
There's no shame in a strategic retreat ๐
or is it just 0 def and however much HP the shield has
