still fine to use occasionally, but for sure would avoid reading the chat too much

#

tried to check channels and don't really see anything that would be spoiler free

#

well except lfg... doubt anybody would be posting anything spoiler there

raven vapor
#

that is the plan

#

if i have any questions i'll ask

#

But I'll make sure to avoid spoilers when i can

merry pebble
#

sure try to do so 😄 i can say that the first playthrough was probably the most enjoyable for me 😄

i love the fact you can dig under the eldar platform and just chill there

#

Forgor those are a thing. So far been able to beat every boss without dying due to preparations and careful fighting

nocturne wolf
#

The only time I’ve ever died to a boss is when I used magic against the queen, in my second playthrough

Man the etir refiner or whatever that is needs 5 more black core

I am not in the mood to go into more creepy mines

are 1 star and 2 star boars super rare or something? ive seen dozens of 1 star deers but not a single 1 star boar so far yet

merry pebble
wide zodiac
#

oh so no 1 star boars can spawn in the center island?

nocturne wolf
paper marsh
#

Yea they don’t spawn with stars near center of world (prob not on starting island). But if you venture away from there they’ll spawn with stars

Exception is that a group of them have a one time spawn near some of those red rune stones, and those groups can have stars

nocturne wolf
regal spoke
#

I've seen 2* boar on spawn island. Definitely rare

wide zodiac
#

can i transport a boar on a karve or is it too small

merry pebble
wide zodiac
#

also how do you get a tamed boar to follow you? is it like minecraft where if you have a carrot in your hand it will start following?

merry pebble
#

you can make coridor with fences and push it through there

nocturne wolf
regal spoke
paper marsh
#

It was a good run from spawn

paper marsh
regal spoke
#

It was just up the coast from Eik. But yeah a good distance from spawn

wide zodiac
paper marsh
#

then you'd have to get them on a ship, but its risky business transporting them. And at that point yea prob best to have them tamed, but you'd prob need a harpoon

uncut bough
#

i had expected the ancient sword to drop more iron and copper scrap

#

instead there are just 8 iron and 8 copper scrap

#

also i just popped an ancient skull....by just hitting the soft tissue

merry pebble
#

harpoon not really neceseary but it will certainly make it easier 😄

uncut bough
#

so both marble and soft tissue just get washed into the water below

paper marsh
#

better get some height so you can dive down and get it

#

copper/iron mining in mistlands is pretty decent imo

uncut bough
#

also is it common that a rib cage spawns without a skull nearby?

#

cuz i have only mined 1 skull, but there are 2 rib cages and 2 sword

regal spoke
#

Seems the way sometimes. I've found skulls and ribs separate

uncut bough
#

man i am starting to hate arbalest, it is just not good in general. It can be used as a guaranteed 100% surprise attack weapon that get you the surprise attack damage, but other than that it is just so bad

merry pebble
uncut bough
#

it is clunky, the reload either makes you vulnerable for a while or you dont reload at all

#

and also the reload animation is LONGER than the reload bar of the arbalest

#

so after the bar is filled up you still need to wait 1-2 seconds for the bolt to be cocked and locked in place before firing

nocturne wolf
#

It’s good for hare hunting

uncut bough
#

i am just beginning to regret it now

ember panther
#

Then don't use it. I find it works best when revisiting biomes

uncut bough
#

i crafted like 300 bone bolt just in anticipation of using it forever and ever, but now i am just washed with regret

paper marsh
#

Arbalest tends to be a bit of a disappointment after bow spoils you. In my bowless run I've been enjoying it tho

#

it takes a while to level

ember panther
#

The low level could be a factor as well. I enjoyed using it, but i probably won't make it again this playthrough

uncut bough
#

no i am just not going to use it aside from maybe hunting, but bow do that better

#

like when you switch to crossbow it still needs to reload first oh my gawd

#

i am just slowly fed up of the arbalest

paper marsh
#

I do like that arbalest reload doesn't halt eitr regen. Pretty sure drawing the bow cancels eitr regen

ember panther
#

Yeah the slow movespeed and load up every time you bring it out is kind annoying

#

It's fun to bring on boat adventures tho

nocturne wolf
#

It’s great for launching greylings to the edge of the world

desert tangle
#

guys does the real game start at the swamp?

nocturne wolf
light moat
#

I’d say Black Forest, but to each their own.

vocal rivet
#

I mean, only Meadows is considered the tutorial biome, but the difficulty curve to swamp is defnitely higher.

light moat
#

There’s a big difficulty spike entering the swamp though, I think most would agree on that.

nocturne wolf
versed root
#

Hey sorry to bother you guys! I'm sure all of you guys know how in the Meadows biome, the grass can obscure the mushrooms on the floor. I'm working on a college assignment and I decided to reference Valheim. Would this problem be considered a Minor/Cosmetic (they don't affect gameplay, just annoying or bothersome) problem or an Intermediate (one that causes frustration but is an easy workaround for the player) problem?

light moat
#

I’d say option 1, minor cosmetic thing

vocal rivet
#

Same, it's such a small issue.

merry pebble
#

definetly 1

near furnace
#

some players just drag the foilage slider to 0 to remove the grass

#

just like people do in war thunder

versed root
#

That's what I was thinking, but I was overthinking it thinking that players might miss out on extra mushrooms overtime which might've caused frustration, but 1 makes sense

#

Thanks guys!

light moat
#

Wow, the Eitr set looks really badass! Was not expecting it to look so good.

merry pebble
#

and every time you see mushrooms you can just drop a pin at their location so you dont have to look for them again 😄

light moat
#

Wood cutting days be like ⛈️

paper marsh
#

Is it weird that I’m struggling on Yggdrasil wood more so than cores and eitr? And I’ve even been specifically targeting trees when I head to mistlands

#

May also be because I’m playing .5 resources and cores and tissue have better drop rates on here than wood

regal spoke
#

Gotta be rng

merry pebble
#

you can better see where the trees are that way

paper marsh
#

I did have pretty good core luck, I'll say that

Oh woops

Yea, I've been using height to scout the place. Mistlands around my base is barren of trees now. Just gotta go further and get more

Might make it a bit easier if I had a wisplight but trees are usually easy enough to see

merry pebble
#

well there are plenty of peaks that dont have mist, and the trees like to poke out of it quite often 😄

paper marsh
#

Ballistas and staves and stairs take so much ygg 😩

light moat
#

You might literally be the only person in the world who struggles to get wood over cores haha

paper marsh
#

likely lol

#

I will say I did have one 3 hour session of getting lost in the mist, where I chose not to carry yggdrassil because my weight was getting tight and I had no inventory spots, which probably also led to my deficiency

They are widebois, but that particular perspective makes it difficult to portray

how long does "the ground is shaking" last?

strange arrow
paper marsh

couple minutes or so

strange arrow
#

all raids last 2 mins roughly

ember panther
#

It's the shortest raid

lunar ridge
#

There is a reason I stick to inanimate objects when I do draw, I cannot draw living creatures to save my life it's the wonky perspective.

patent pawn
#

cool

ember panther
#

Mm, some are longer... Smell from the swamp is longer than avg. And trolls is shorter

patent pawn
#

i've killed 6 of the dam things

#

feels like a lot more than 2 mins

#

ah, nvm

vocal rivet
#

If you leave the red area, the event will pause.

strange arrow
#

6 is good going

lunar ridge
#

My general strat for the troll raid specifically is to gather their attentions, run in circles until the raid end, and then kill them. They will infinitely spawn provided you can kill so many in 2 minutes

#

But they won't spawn more than 3 at a time, if I remember correctly.

vocal rivet
#

2 is the maximum spawn.

strange arrow
#

is there a cd on the next spawn or is it immediate after 1 dies?

lunar ridge
#

46 minutes is the minimum time between raids

vocal rivet
#

The event will try and spawn a new Troll up to the limit every 20 seconds.

strange arrow
#

20 seconds, thanks, i had 15 in mind

lunar ridge
#

nvm read the question wrong lol

strange arrow
#

so yr only limited by how long the raid lasts and that 20 second respawn timer

paper marsh
#

Do those respawn times pause when you go outside the raid area?

vocal rivet
#

Yknow, I'm not 100% sure, I'd imagine so though.

paper marsh
#

hmm I'd imagine the opposite, but I have no reason to believe so

vocal rivet
#

Given that the raid timer pauses, why wouldn't the spawn timer as well? But yeah, don't know for definite.

ember panther
#

Pre sure the raids spawn a set certain number of mobs within the radius. If you kill one, another spawns to take it's place. Happens almost instantly. Saw a draugrs / skeleton army all spawn in once a raid started on the mountain

paper marsh
#

how instantly depends on the mob

vocal rivet

Is the queen the last boss?

lunar ridge
#

For now

strange arrow
#

currently

lusty latch
#

When the new biome is added, will there be a way to add it to existing worlds or do you have to make a new world?

vocal rivet
#

It's already there technically.

paper marsh
#

Just don't go and explore all of the current ashlands, because then it won't update

lusty latch
#

Oh nice, even on the dedicated server I run? It'll just convert some of the ashlands into the new one?

#

Have to restart the server or something I'd guess?

lunar ridge
#

It's like watching your pot when it's cooking. if you look at it, nothing will happen. You have to ignore it, let it cook in the background. Only then will it appear.

strange arrow
paper marsh
lunar ridge
#

Keep in mind, the generating distance is quite large so if you're intent on exploring the ashlands on the world you currently use, make sure to give it a wide berth.

lusty latch
#

ok ty guys

strange arrow
#

ye best practice is to just stay well away from it, since we don't know how much the connecting landmasses that are there currently will change, we only know that they won't connect anymore so building near the border is pointless

#

(and may end up with yr build being in the Ocean and falling to bits due to lack of support)

Dude you don't have to be so matter of fact 🙄 I said almost instantly, which is what many will experience. I read what you said about 20s. It just isn't that important

vocal rivet
#

I just disagree that 20s is any way instant.

#

And that's just the troll raid. Other raids have even longer counters.

Ashlands spoiler is that the boss is yagluth's legs

lyric remnant

||I wonder what the alternative armor's effects will be, cause the light is suppose to take over the fenris set and the mage will late over, the mage set. But what Im wondering is if the new armor will have new set bonuses or will just have better stats for whatever their roll is supposed to be. Like id the light just makes you go 20% faster instead of 15%||

all the light armors so far have different effects. Troll gives sneak, root gives poison/pierce resist and archery skill, fenris gives speed, fire resist, and fist skill, and mage gives eitr regen

Excited to see what Ashlands brings

paper marsh
# lyric remnant I thought it was 15?

3% per piece x 3 pieces = 9%

You could argue it gives more compared to wearing heavy armor tho. If you're wearing full heavy armor you're at -10% movespeed, so at that point +9% is really 19% better

lyric remnant
#

oh shit youre right, damn, well its still very fast

paper marsh
#

yup. With 100 run skill you also get another +25%, so you can go superspeed with high run skill and fenris armor

#

I'm prob gonna try a fenris armor mage build for Ashlands

lyric remnant
#

wait is this true?

grizzled wing

(I checked google)

grizzled wing
#

What numbers did it give and how did it give them?

paper marsh
#

I think Hodge is just clarifying that going from 99 to 100 doesn't give a huge buff

It's just slowly increasing speed as you up run skill, to a max of 25%

So total movespeed with 100 run and full fenris would be 25+9 = 34%

lyric remnant
#

its on the valheim wiki

lyric remnant
#

these are the statsCharacters run at 13.5km/h no matter the run skill level
At 0 skill you sprint 24km/h
At 100 skill you sprint 30km/h

#

ooooohhhhhhh

vocal rivet
#

That's 25%.

grizzled wing
#

Max run speed is 9.4m/s
0.1m/s slower than a longship with tailwind

#

Inb4 someone mentions the longship can go faster, yes i know

Hello, was a little hesitant when I first bought Valheim on March 10th. I played it for the first time in March 22nd and have been enjoying it since. I have a total of 25.1 hours as of sending this message, I really love the building part of the game.

each day goes by and i am still not done trashing arbalest

#

it is so bad, its elevation angle is so bad, much more restricted than the bow

grizzled wing
#

Arbalest is immunised against all dangers

uncut bough
#

like pitching the arbalest a bit up and it still wont shoot up like a bow, it just shoots horizontally, same as pitching down

#

bow can shoot up at like 80 degree up and still works

grizzled wing
#

Doesn't shoot like a bow because it's not a replacement for the bow. It's for people who don't use bows

serene talon
#

exactly the arbalest is not a bow

#

why should it act like one

uncut bough
#

it is not bow but i am just saying that it is much more restrictive than a bow

#

and i don't see any immediate upside other than a guaranteed surprise first hit for huge crit dmg

#

which also takes time to switch to the arbalest, for the arbalest to load a bow, wait for the loading animation to complete, fire

grizzled wing
odd helm
#

I think the arbalest shoots bolts, not bows

#

sorry, couldn't resist

#

good morning gamers

#

nice pfp @odd helm !

grizzled wing
#

The bolt loading also doesn't really matter since you use the arbalest from extreme range. You can get 3/4 shots off on anything before it gets close to you

odd helm
uncut bough
#

i would argue that the ranged damage upside is also wonky, as i said the elevation angle is horible, either you have to aim dead ahead to actually hit because any other slight deviation of elevation angle just makes it shoot straight ahead anyways

uncut bough
paper marsh
uncut bough
#

so again i will say, if i point the mouse upward, maybe even just a bit, it should still shoot upward, not the same as where the arbalest is located

azure yacht
#

That's an issue with the character and how the crosshair works, not the arbalest

frigid gust
#

The arbalest goes straight at the crosshair if it's far enough away 😉 you just have to figure out the slight difference in between because it fires from below your head height where the crosshair is. It is not great for anything up close. Treat it like a sniper and you'll have much more success.

odd helm
#

I believe the discrepancy here is that the bolt originates from the tip of the arbalest, and bows originate from way closer to your body. This difference makes them both work differently in relation to the crosshair, which is a mechanically difficult thing to account for in a third person perspective.

#

But like others have said, it's already pretty dead-on at sufficient range, and at closer ranges there's a consistent deviation that you can account for with practice. Treat it as a challenge to overcome rather than a bug.

#

One benefit is that you can shoot straight down into an enemy slightly beyond a wall you're standing on as cover, since the bolt originates a bit further out from you~

dense steppe
#

@odd helmThe crossbow has a flat firing trajectory catapprove

#

to hit a crossbow at close range, you need to shoot at the center of mass of the object and the bolt will hit the target gkittenthinking

Yeah. Arbalest is great for high damage sneak shots to start a fight, maybe a couple shots, but you generally don't want to "main" it like many people do a bow

It's also much better against flying enemies like gjalls (you know, arguably the most dangerous mistlands enemy)

I don't see it as bad playing games when you're sick. Unless you're sick with a fatal illness that will claim you in a few days, you don't really need to stay in bed all day

frigid gust
#

As long as you're not foregoing sleep you would otherwise get 😉 If you'd be awake in bed, may as well play a game. If you need sleep, sleep.

#

What works for me in case of just a regular old fever is taking a 2 hour nap and wake up feeling much better.

I usually do try to just play video games or something to distract, but usually feeling like shit don't really feel like doing anything after a little while 😂

empty bison

yeah, I feel already pain in every bone from sleeping haha. I feel like playing is helping me feel better, but if I quit game, I feel like crap again 😄

so I guess 24 hours valheim time

Already found a vegvisir for yagluth... At this rate I have a feeling I'll probably find his altar before bonemass or Moder

Roots. Only iron helm is ok

It's good.. +15 bow skill is definitely nice but it isn't really necessary, depends on your playstyle. If you can get more armor / movespeed, it's better for melee imo

its 1 abominations per swamp biome right? if i read the wiki correctly

ember panther
#

It'll respawn again after a while

frigid gust
latent wraith
#

1 per zone (64x64m) at the time (or is it active zones? 3x3 zones if so). "A biome" is not a relevant area measurement as they come in all sizes and shapes.

#

Simply put - if there's an abomination alive another one won't spawn very close to it.

I just hope we don't see any +15 skill gear in Ashlands.

Unless it's crossbows or magic, since that unlocks in the mistlands anyway

what does 64x64 look like on the map

gray nexus

16 big stone blocks

ember panther

16 core wood poles

zenith star
#

i love how effectively seekers are just living tanks

frigid gust
#

Well, a standard foor piece is 2x2... but because of the creature limits, you get better results going back and forth and murdering everything and hoping one of the spawns is an abomination 😉

latent wraith
#

About the same as 64x64 metres in real life, our characters are human sized. :p

gray nexus
#

as a short person I do not agree to this

zenith star
#

tbh abominations seem to spawn when you dont want them

steady veldt
#

+15 just seems boring and if you ever level your skills you will wish it was something else.

paper roost
latent wraith
#

It's a very nice bonus for the level you'll generally be at at that level, tbh.

gray nexus

I just recently got 100 on bow

steady veldt
#

If they made it so 115 was possible even with diminishing returns It would be ok.

#

still boring though

paper marsh
#

I do think it would be cool if skills could go above 100 with armor, but good god bow skill needs to be nerfed like hell before that happens

gray nexus
#

eh 100 kinda already broken, at the my lvl I just fight melee with bow as well

#

for bow atleast

ember panther
#

I mean, I've played over 600hrs and never hit 100 skill on anything

gray nexus
#

not even run?

light moat
#

Same, I’m pretty close, but not quite 100

gray nexus
#

I had run at 100 since forever ngl

lunar ridge
#

Run is my first skill to 100, 90% of the time

latent wraith
#

Getting to 100 in anything isn't "intended" as you won't get there with normal play in a "standard" play through and there's no real point in getting to it.

paper marsh

I’ve never trained a skill, but my run skill is still high 80s.

lunar ridge
latent wraith
#

Yeh but that's on you and not something the game should cater to. :p

ember panther
#

Nope. Highest I've ever got was 90. I'm pretty careless sometimes so I die semi often

lunar ridge
#

Pretty sure it's a genuine mental illness at this point

gray nexus
#

I trained bow ngl and it was worth it but otherwise training other skills is just too slow to be worth it

paper marsh
#

hardcore mode has helped me train my skills high, along with other settings extending the gameplay time in one world (aka, the grindiness)

zenith star
#

only gripe i have is they dont have a ghost mode when you die

nocturne wolf

With bow skill 70 (or something near that) you can fully charge a shot in one dodgeroll

I’ll probably get around to training some skills after I beat the queen, ||gotta get my axe skill up for those double axes in Ashlands||

ember panther

enemies shouldnt be able to see you when retrieving items in my opinion

especially when they sit on your stuff

nocturne wolf

That's why you get corpse run. It's like eikthyr on steroids

paper marsh

yeah but if a rogue deathsquito popped out of a plains you have gone by it can be an issue

nocturne wolf

Roll into it

zenith star

they tend to linger around your items and they arent very forgiving lol

light moat
#

Gotta have backup gear, or at least a plan in place for dying

ember panther

It's all part of the challenge.. You get like what, 5mins of no skill drain? I'll zerg rush that tombstone til I get it.

nocturne wolf

Never go too far from a portal (unless you just sailed)

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail

zenith star

the plains ing eneral all around is bad to die in

paper marsh

#

what happens if you lose the backup gear

ember panther
#

Falling off a mountain is the worst way to die Imo

paper marsh
#

You can always just lower the death penalty so you keep your main gear tho

paper marsh
#

Or lower difficulty, if you're frustrated that you keep dying

zenith star
#

i dont

ember panther
#

Turn on "passive enemies"

steady veldt

Don't die in the middle of a lava field

ember panther

Ez mode retrieval

zenith star
#

if im dying continually in a area i will just use devcommands i dont really enjoy wasting my time

#

if the game wont let me retrieve my gear

lunar ridge
#

plains is one of the easier biomes to die in, imo

zenith star
#

i give it quite a few attempts normally before then tho thats only in bad cases

paper marsh
#

If you don't want to waste time you're also able to spawn in mistlands gear and resources so you're stronger and don't need to go mine anything

its that there were a lot of shamans that i didnt notice

lunar ridge

So then... you couldn't handle them

nocturne wolf
#

Just don’t do it again

half dragon
#

not great idea to be in the middle of a camp. Even if you're fighting most of them in melee at the same time, still better to move away from the camp to ensure you can get your stuff back if you die

zenith star
#

fair

#

i do find it rubbish when enemies camp your items tho

#

idk i just dont find it fun i guess

nocturne wolf
#

Just lure them away

zenith star
#

i used to play ark a lot so probably just ptsd from that lol

lunar ridge
#

Too many surprises you're inviting upon yourself when you're running into the middle of a camp, unless you've thoroughly scouted the area but even if you have, mistakes happen, ups get fucked, and then you're trying to grab your gear surrounded by annoying enemies for no reason lol

zenith star
#

tbh i dont find fulings that bothersome more than not its the random deathsquito mid combat

paper marsh
#

I get a lot of success just doing a driveby and grabbing my stuff, then running out. It's just one click to grab the tombstone, and mobs can't keep up with you when you're sprinting (other than deathsquitos or such)

lunar ridge
#

I would classify deathsquitos as annoying enemies Ragnar_laugh

zenith star
#

its almost like they copy and pasted mosquitos from irl and amplified everything bad about them

half dragon
#

when you get ambushed by a deathsquito and when you start fighting it a 2nd deathsquito ambushes you out of nowhere 😂

paper marsh

Deathsquitos are anonying but with ok armor and root chest they barely tickle you

deathsquitos still remained one of the most annoying things to fight, right next to bat

"what if we made mosquitos, but like they're really annoying, strong and everywhere you don't want them to be"
"brilliant"
"what if we call them... DEATH squittos?"
"brilliant"

paper marsh

after all bats is just discounted deathsquito, which still means it is as annoying as deathsquito

at least on normal they're not dangerous... just annoying nibbling your toes. Still can't ignore them tho

inb4 they decide to add wasps to the game

Haldor update comes first

zenith star

my bets 2026

paper marsh

is the deep north meant to be where the final boss is gonna be or i assume they have a plan for an actual final boss

paper marsh
#

DN will have final boss

latent wraith
#

We don't know.

zenith star
#

coz i always assumed ashlands and dn were about equal

latent wraith
#

DN will have a boss but we don't know if it's going to be the final one or if the final one will be something else.

paper marsh
#

I thought they confirmed that DN would be the end of the game or last boss or so. May be wrong tho

zenith star
#

so you complete both then you gain a item to open where the final boss is or some thing like that

latent wraith
#

9 bosses was said to be the intention early on but whether that's still the case is unknown (possibly also by the devs).

grizzled wing
#

It's been said that after dn, they might touch up oceans with new stuff, then probably one more update after and that's it

zenith star
#

like getting half a key from ashlands then half a key from dn then you combine them but meh its hard to tell what route they may go

latent wraith
zenith star
#

i feel the devs could listen to people

ember panther
mossy fiber
#

They raid deep north though...

agile thunder
#

I’ve personally never read anything that suggested a final “boss” but they tend to post updates about biomes and every biome tends to have a boss at the end.. so I guess yeah they’d be the final one unless they do something that I’ve never seen discussed and unlock a new ultimate boss after bringing the trophy to the altar

Deep Noeth is going to exciting. Very far away though lol but it’s fun to think about.

The last I can recall seeing about bosses other than the obvious one boss per progression biome is dvoid saying it "remains to be seen" whether the ocean will have a boss, but that's more than two years ago.

It's not exactly too late to make DN the same tier as ashlands and you can choose whether you go to either biome in order to progress to the end

surtr himself is literally the only fire giant in mythology normally so making one for valheim would be nice

He's also explicitly dead in valheim lore

I like to think onion soup/salad gives you an edge in combat whilst fighting, you can just breathe on them for poison damage...

azure yacht
#

The fact you see surtlings is further proof

zenith star
#

if i had to guess its either what remains of surtr or its a new fire giant

it's just gonna be a surtlet, a portal that summons big hordes of surtlings

Also, aren't the bosses in Valheim canonically enemies Odin defeated and banished to the realm? Or am I misremembering?

thats what i guess the boss might be

halcyon thistle

So, even though it would be a bit on-the-nose, it's still technically possible for us to fight Surtr as the ashlands boss from a lore perspective?

I see a surtr-like enemy as a mini boss. But not the boss

I much prefer the idea of a giant lava jellyfish

thats a head with pointy ears at the side and fire on the head

tho if you look part of the fire on the head looks like curled horns

so part of the fire is horns most likely

merry pebble
zenith star

has no face tho

azure yacht
#

I kinda wanted a humanoid boss that's around the same size as the character, and it would've been lore-accurate considering the main enemies but that boss stone pretty much shattered that hope

ember panther
#

It's around the 11:30 mark. Very briefly shown as they scroll by the other boss stones

zenith star
#

its deifnietly a head tho

lunar ridge
zenith star
#

a big head too imagine its literally just a giant floating flaming head

ember panther
#

Other bosses are full bodied on the stone

zenith star
#

yeah considering it doesnt have a body

#

im guessing its literally just a giant head

azure yacht
zenith star
#

or a giant flaming ball that tries to roll you over

ember panther
#

Yag is just a head? Come to think of it... What else is there to it

azure yacht
#

1/3 of his remaining body is the head

zenith star
#

yeah yag is just a head

#

on the stone anyways

ember panther
#

Hmm then maybe it is just a head....of a fire cat

zenith star
#

in person hes literally just straight up a bisected torso

lunar ridge

Really trying to repress the inappropriate remarks

azure yacht
#

Also, not everyone would've expected to get kicked around and burned by a half skeleton. Putting it in the boss stone might have been a spoiler

zenith star

bet its a giant flaming skeleton

azure yacht

If yag had the full body, he would be the closest to a humanoid giant

zenith star

if yag had his full body he would be unbeatable

azure yacht

Has the attacks of elder and his own magic

i always assumed he was probably muscular like the berserkers

XD well itd be much quicker with the wishbone, if you had it. It pings same as for silver in the mountains. Otherwise yeah you're stuck with crypts until you've 86'd bonemass

I first flatten it until it's basically all lightly submerged underwater and then start methodically smacking the ground in search of 0s

if not for Moder I think I'd enjoy a bossless run. I just don't like how much stuff she locks out

Pretty new to the game and I’m loving alll of it so far. I’ve unlocked stone masonry and iron tools, I’m seeing in the #building-screenshots channel people with like braided wooden trim on their builds. When/how do I unlock that?

What's the end game of a bossless run? 🤔

And the game is actually easy so far if you run altgeir and bow combo with the exception of insects in the mist (too tanky, maneuverable and gjalls...)

Plus it's really satisfying to play as sniper

I still cant find swamps, I found mountains on both sides of my islands, but cant find swamps at all. I guess it will be somewhere far in the sea

I dont get it at all, how is that even possible. Its because is working partially ,,online,, with servers or?

The map is calculated based on the seed

I mean the ssize of the game and size of the world. Is that geneerating thing if youre only nearby?

Also keep in mind Minecraft, one of the largest if not the largest potential world in any game ever, is also only 1 gb.

empty bison
#

I didnt play minecraft, so I have no clue haha

patent pawn
#

the save files save the current state of the world (except hostile mob position), the seed is case sensitive so there's trillions of combinations, and the graphics are low-poly

loud valve
#

The assets are all reused, so there's just lines of code for how to determine things within the set boundaries.

patent pawn

low poly graphics helps a lot

I see. should I set password to server now, when I posted it here?

low-poly being the key in this particular situation.

The seed for my no map / portal playthrough has been great. Aside from finding bonemass / moder. I've been lucky to have lots of found lots of frost caves, turnips, both haldor and hildir all relatively close to the altar

i wish i used the map on my first run. I didn't and died to a death skeeto from sailing too close to plains

so i just made a new char

I was gonna do no map no portals, but mistlands

But everyone is different, everyone enjoys the game in different ways and especially now with the introduction to world modifiers we've seen an influx of players with a wildly differentiating array of preference.

Yea the wonder and surprises are really fun. Don't know if I'd go back. Though I'm considering enabling a single portal to altar... Haven't decided yet

I have nothing on the starter island. Too far away from mistlands, plains, and ashlands

loud valve

Turn your starter island into your fortress

#

Prepare for when Odin replaces you

nocturne wolf
#

If it’s small enough to turn into a fortress, it’s too far away from other biomes to be a good location.

#

Unless you don’t mind spending almost your entire playthrough turning a large island into a single fortress

loud valve
#

When does a fortress need to be small?

patent pawn

Hmmm it's worth keeping it small for own convenience. Personally I don't like to put too much space between different workbenches and refiners so when I come back tk my base I can quickly refine ores and make stuff

You are the authority in your playthrough. Do you wish for an expansive fortress? it shall be so.
Do you wish for a diminutive fortress? it shall be so.
The world is your oyster, and you have sole governance over any and all decisions; you are law.

Big fortress is cool too and allows for more aesthetics

And single-digit fps if you go too far Ragnar_laugh

Yes that too xD

But generally whatever You prefer. I like compact base some ppl like big crazy builds and all of this is perfectly fine

You don't need to build Fort Drum

ah I c. Yea I just generally hate making bases on starter island because its usually just easier to go sailing and explore for a good base location near swamp and mountain, later on plains mistlands and ashlands

I’m less of a fortress player and more of a cozy home with a farmhouse player. I spawn-proof a rather large area, and I currently have my main house (includes forge and workbench), farmhouse, Dvergr/Eitr workshop, exterior portal hub, and hopefully soon a watchtower. All of it will be enclosed in a wall… eventually lol. Need to build a dock as well.

A lso try to avoid big fortress cause I play solo and if I go too big with the base it just feels so empty

I like having all my stuff nearby for efficiency so I cram as much stuff into a room as I can while still bein able to walk through it

I don’t spawnproof too far because I like fighting bands of fulings or seekers when they raid me

What is the eitr refiner doing shooting something out, damaging my stonewall and windmill nearby

light moat

Yep, it fires off dangerous projectiles while it’s refining, as does the finished product. Black marble and iron cages are immune to this damage, so you can put a refinery in a structure made of those materials to keep it safe.

Soft tissue is really the only limiter imo

And they're pretty easy to extract, just a bit annoying to traverse mistlands to find them

So much carapace lol

That means everyting minus spear and knives then

I will upgrade arbalest to max, craft hundreds of bone bolt and free roam the plains

I want all the black metal to make best chest in game

Also it doesnt hurt stockpiling more black metals i guess

Arbalest is cool, but it's not great for players who like to stay mobile imo

Arbalest is strong when using it to reconquer plains and below biomes, but in mistlands… not so much

Because the terrains are so weird and the vision is limited even with the wisplight, its superior long range hitscan is just thrown out of the window

Curious, what weapons do y’all use in a 1v1 (no Dwarven aid) against a Gjall? I use the huntsman’s bow, but I’m wondering if it’s a little dated at this point. I tried using my staff of embers, but I didn’t seem super efficient.

well you are using bow from 3 biomes lower XD

Usually not a fan of crossbows, but it’s worth a shot! Just goofing around at this point anyways.

The huntsman’s bow just looks so good!

merry pebble

oh thats for sure 😄

light moat
#

Might try the ice staff!

shy marlin
#

Ice staff probably won't be very good, the spray is to your disadvantage and can't take advantage of the weak point

merry pebble
#

you might actually equip the troll set for the extra sneak if you are confident in your skills XD

light moat

Nope, not quite that confident LOL

#

On a side note, even though it doesn’t seem like a super OP weapon or anything, I want to try out the Jotun Bane.

does blocking damage from heavy hitting enemies give you more xp?

#

no

#

it's per block iirc

paper marsh
#

No. Xp from everything is just based on how much you do it, not how well.

As mack says, block gives xp per attack blocked (but it does give more for a parry, I think 50% more)

yep

and you get more if you parry, like donsio mentioned
