lammmmeeee
im sure if you wanted to do it you could always ask for help with the queen then get like 5 or more people in there and go smash that boss out of the park
i honestly dont know if im ready. i cant even exsplore the mislands without dying 20 times
get a root armor chest piece wear that with whatever melee armor you have highest and protects a lot against seekers attacks and any other attacks that do pierce damage
There's no information on that so whoever told it to you is pulling facts from thin air
If you're dying while exploring mistlands you'll die even faster in ashlands
What's your gear set?
What's your food?
the best stuff im able to make
Okay but is that like
Carapace armor?
Eitr weave?
Padded?
For food are we talking like mistlands tier food or plains?
Are you parrying and counter attacking enemies?
Carapace buckler and sword is a good combo
Keep up the rested buff
Make sure to fight on flat ground
Best advice for fighting the MODER?
Frostner, ooze bombs and frost arrows are great for starting in the Mists, before you get those resources
I'm nervous about the feather cape nerf. Couldn't we just have a resistance to cold but not freezing?
im currently exsploriung mistlands and i have the best food at this point in the game
Not the place to talk about the beta changes, but don't be nervous
Can I suggest at least adding resistance to cold but not to freezing in suggestions?
Join the beta test channel and watch the patch notes. Things are already changed.
does anyone know the actual release day yet?
What do you mean? Can you direct me to the patch notes that specifically changed the feather cape?
Latest post in #public-test-patchnotes
spoiler coming?
No spoilers outside of PTB channels
HALLELUJAH
Any suggestions on how to fight the MODER
when hes in the sky let the arrows fly when hes on the ground ground and pound.
👍
You can also stand off to the side and she will just rotate and only occasionally attack
you can also use mistlands torches that help alot with clearing which require you to have wisps and dont require a crafting table to build them
thats just for help with mistlands
How I do that?
Pinned post here gives all the details
find a Rune Stone in the area, or a Moder that is near such a rune stone; Use rune stone as cover when he ices, since its indestructible.
so something grows in the ||mountains now!||! prayer answered
in general, arrow it to death when it is in the air. use your melee weapon when it lands and avoid/dodge it's breath attack. you will also want frost resist potions or gear.
So wait. Why do we get a Mistlands axe for woodcutting but we don't get a pickaxe made from the leg of a Seeker Soldier (since that is what carves rock)?
New pickaxe when?
Wishlist for ashlands
Ashlands tire pickaxe
Ashlands tier axe
Ashlands tier build hammer
Ashlands tier cultivator
Ashlands tier Hoe
(I just want to not have to go to six crafting stations to repair all my stuff please)
haha he said hoe
also flametal knife with upgrades, pretty please
Oh yeah, ashlands tier pet destroyer would also be good
yeh they will prolly release it with DN xD
|| It's a shame there's no new knife in the ashlands 😦 ||
Will the oceans be expanded upon? When can we dive and search for buried treasure in the ocean? Maybe we could have a magic bubble of air to swim underwater without drowning.
I think you should keep this in the PTB channels.
Skoll and hati are plenty enough. You can one-shot a Lox at level 100 with sneak+powerattack
And iirc I'm pretty sure you can achieve the highest damage in the game by sneak powerattacking a seeker soldier on the butt.
lots of sad stabby gurls xD
They are usually my main weapons, I would have liked a continuation of them :Sss
I've never accomplished it because they never seem to turn around when I'm trying to sneak, but
Who on earth is managing to get knives skill to 100?
It's easy with skoll and hati. Farm greydwarves
You've got to hit enemies 10,000 times without dying
Greydwarves
That's with rested buff
That sounds like absolute hell
I mean. I'm a cheater so I level all my stuff to 100
But I've achieved my weapons and items legitimately.
go up by the number of hits you give, not by the damage, so if you hit loxes with a flint knife, you'll level up the skill quickly
No you won't, you'd have to, with rested buff, use up the entire durability bar of a flint knife 34 times to get from level 1 to level 100
Actually, yeah, that's better. Though I wish we could make training dummies out of wood and sacks of Barley or something
That doesn't sound bad at all especially considering how fast the attack speed is with the knife.
Okay, so assuming an enemy with infinite health, and assuming you have infinite stamina and durability on your knife, it would take you attacking at the maximum attack speed for one hour thirty five minutes to level from 1-100
take it easy dude xd
I wish the Queen had some sort of weakness.
as you progress through the biomes, you gain quite a few levels if you playing with knives
Btw you don’t need level 100 on knives to 1 shot a lox…
evening valheim chat
i'm just saying that's not what I'd call "Quick" or "Easy" as none of those conditions exist, so saying "Oh you can easily do this with 100 in X skill" is just like saying "Oh you could easily do this with infinite build materials" it's just not feasible for the vast majority of players
60/70 maybe
time to start making my iron gear and then ill fight bonemass
Get an iron mace. Best weapon to screw with him at your tier.
Yep, also since knife is a close combat weapon, you can deal enough damage to stagger them and lock it in till kill.
so true
I have one already, Ive beat queen before this is my world for the ashlands
Skoll and Hati was my main weapon throughout Mistlands, god I love them.
it takes effort but yeah
Absolutely, I killed her with the Mistlands knife
me too
But she resists pierce?
i think knives do slashing
Yes but everything resists pierce because the devs are afraid of bows and arrows
i might be wrong i dont use knives a lot
Skoll and hati do equal slash and pierce for all attacks
yeah, but as jono said a lot of things resist pierce
two slash, and the last one pierce
Nothing is weak to slash which is a tragedy because swords and axes are cool
Yes but she is weak to my skills ahaha
arent abos weak to axe damage specifically?
Seeker soldiers are.
Not many creatures resist slash, though, so it's decently-balanced
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Seeker_soldier
You are incorrect
slash is just good in general
Unlikely.
It literally says there "Resistant to slash"????
not bad but good for most mobs
Ghost, blob, ooze, wraith, ghost, bat, golem, Lox, tar ooze, and seekers are the only creatures that resist slash
the real fact is, the hoe is the best weapon ever made.
And bonemass
hammer better tbh
Their weak spot is weak to slash.
No, their weak spot is weak to damage?
They're weak to everything on their bums
mvp weapon
yeah how else would i have my base
facts
ah I see, only most of the enemies in the game as well as the most consistently appearing current endgame enemies
You should have a mace with you in the swamp, anyway... most things are weak to blunt damage
And ghost and wraiths resist anything melee that isn't spirit
Yes but at the same time, sword is cooler than mace
I wish frostner could scale up in damage to ashlands. It's mountain-tier but it is still relevant
That's less than 10% of the mobs ingame.
How does krom fare in ashlands?
i think it would be cool if using it did more damage to ashlands based enemies, but holding it made you take more damage as well. Risk/Reward weapon
Ashland content should be discussed in the Public test channel.
If you don't have access to the ptb, head to Channels & Roles and select "I want to be a public tester"
Factually it's 11/52 creatures not including bosses so it's more like 20%
It's insane how a mountain weapon still holds up nicely to more dangerous biomes
Derek helps run the Wiki as well as adding content. Derek knows what he's talking about
Also it doesn't change the fact that nothing is weak to slash, so at no point in the game is the sword the best option when you can just use a frostner basically from mountains through end game
If he's wrong he'll admit that
But considering the other 80% take normal damage from it, and swords are one of the best and most balanced weapons in regard to damage, distance, and attack speeds, It's a really good tradeoff.
Also, why aren't aboms weak to chop? Like... bro, you're a living tree
They're weak to axe, not to slash
wait they arent?
No
i swear they take more dmg from axes
They take neutral damage from it vs resisting slash and pierce
I thought they did too
ik for sure they are weak to fire
Which is why it feels as if they're weak, but they don't. Crystal battle axe destroys it though
Most balanced counts for nothing when maces have clear advantages in either pure damage, from the blunt perspective, or typed damage, from the frostner doing a large amount of frost damage which most enemies are not resistant to and does a debuff, swords lose out as do axes but that's because there's not a lot of axxes
The only reason why Frostner is S tier is because of its insane elemental damage, which high-tier creatures most often do not resist. Otherwise, its damage is meh and the knockback can be bothersome. I preferred using the blackmetal sword vs fulings than the frostner
Yeah, agreed
yeah, i hope deep north enemies will resist frostner, it makes sense logically
how many chests can you give to hildir?
I got another one but she just says it's not hers or something
I want to see an ocean expansion before deep north
not too much tho, or it could make sailing annoying
I mean underwater. Diving.
Underwater dungeons that we need magic air bubbles to navigate
maybe, I dont know what they could do to work tho
Frostner isn't the best because of it's blunt, it's the best because it's the best source of elemental damage pre mistlands and even then it does the same elemental damage as the himminafl
i think the oceans could just use another creature
Only one of each.
Himminafl is so damn good. The "get the FUCK away from me" polearm.
polearms my beloved
I just wish we could finally have directional attacks. WHY can we not aim with a spear?
the ptb hopefully addresses some form of that
Ptb?
the spear attack angle is what makes me hate them
besides the harpoon but thats more of a tool than a spear
i wish spears functioned as weaker, one handed polearms
I love shields but i like my polearms more
You know what I wish we could do with two hand maces? Hammer toss.
Spin around in circles and launch that B
can loxes float?
monster hunter ahh attack
They can swim, yes. Quite fast, actually.
All creatures can swim except stuff like trolls, golems, draugrs, skeletons, aboms...
everything can be harpooned i think
Why can't skeletons swim? Bones float.
Pirates of the carribeans skeletons "sank" 😄
The fact we can haul a two ton golem is hilarious.
so makes sense here
the only things that i dont know if they can be harpooned are forsaken
only 1 way to find out
yeah thats what i figured
I mean, how else can you harvest from a sea serpent other than bringing it to shore?
I doubt our viking has the strength to hold down a giant dragon
I want to ride Moder. Make her fren and soar into the sunset.
i dont know about that one
How do you do that?
macro set up with an emote action set to a key, whilst attacking with mouse
or something similar
I realized you don't need to hold block. Only long enough to cancel the block
Been a while since I did it, but I did normal attacks, dodge roll and secondary attack at the same time
If I'm on controller and on console can I still do it lol
Something like that with blocking, I don’t know
I'm mostly familiar with first attack, block cancel
What's it do exactly?
Haven’t gotten on in a long time
🤷 searching here or google will surely tell you tho
Like what's the purpose of it
Gives you I frames while doing quite a bit of damage
Oh sick
I could be completely wrong but I’m fairly certain that’s what it does
In passive enemies mode will troll attack you if you place fire under them?
guys is it worth it for me to make the huntsman bow for bonemass or should i be fine with the finewood bow
It's worth it for the long range accuracy improvement, but I wouldn't use a bow against bonemass
should i bring it with me to the mountians then?
Oh for sure
ok ill make it then
trust me go full mace on bonemass, he is weak af to it
Frostner destroys him, but iron maces work fine, too
yeah, i was just debating if i should make it. I need to return to the crypts anyway for more iron.
Imo I don't think huntsman bow is worth it
Never enough of iron 
Just use finewood until the next bow you unlock after huntsman
yeah, i need to build stonecutters at my outposts
Why should I use spinesnap when I can just use a crossbow rail gun
Huntsman is expensive and you're about to fight bone mass, which unlocks the next bow
Spinesnap looks cool af when you’re using it.
Fully upgraded finewood bow > huntsman bow
Wh? Why?
Because you're not going to be at iron stage long enough to make the bow worth it unless you just like to take forever at iron stage
i need to go back to the crypts anyway and i can carry all the iron. I have megingjord
Ye but you'd need iron for future stuff like forge upgrades, reinforced chests, future armor, some silver weapons
Iron stage is brutal. Takes way too much iron to upgrade things.
i have an outpost in a swamp filled with crypts
I'd say skip iron upgrades altogether
im just making the gear im not upgrading it
Idk just seems like a waste of iron since you just kill bone mass with blunt weapons or finewood bow frost arrows if you go that route
Also why don't headshots exist with arrows? Pierce should always double damage in the head
Fully upgraded finewood bow is basically the exact same stats as huntsman bow except huntsman has more stamina drain
you can headshot trolls
Yeah.
i wish more enemies had weakspots. like let me hit the giant cyst on greydwarf backs to do more damage
The only way huntsman bow is better than a fully upgraded finewood bow is if you upgrade it, and it's already pretty much a waste of iron to begin with since everything you're fighting at your stage is pretty much resistant to pierce anyways
ok ty
Np
If you want to fight bone mass with a bow id recommend just making frost mead and going and mining obsidian and killing drakes in snow biome for frost arrows
Probably easier to just use a mace though
im just considering it for mountians after bonemass
He resists pierce though, so I wouldn't advise it
to shoot down drakes and such
Ye it's a lot of extra time than just using a mace but he may be just doing a bow playthrough so I recommended it
I love the arbalest. It does do less damage over time, I think, but good lord does it absolutely shred weakpoints
Can be beneficial for that but usually I get enough silver from my first trip just to make silver bow
im just doing a normal playthrough, again im just considering it for the mountians
Up to you man
ill just max my finewood one and bring the iron arrows from the crypts with me
Id use fire arrows in snow
i have both
I kill drakes with just finewood and fire arrows and then make silver stuff
And troll armor lol
My go-to speed run setup
People who run around in plains with Troll armor are something else. Like, bro...
Lmao I usually do that until I get fenris
Sometimes I'll make the silver helm with root chest and silver legs if I'm wanting to not just cheese with bow
with the arbalest, the further you are the harder it hits....if you can barely see the target you can one-shot most things besides 2* and bosses (obv.)
2* anything, short of maybe a neck or boar, is very powerfull for its given location....wouldn't be supprised if that leech was almost the same damage as a wolf
Just wait till you experience the mists and a 2* seeker worrior....or the enemies in the public test branch (ptb).
PTB gonna give me a nightmares
yep. on landfall I had a 2* spawn on me.....gana be a lot of work to get my stuff back.
2 star gjall says hello
just had my perch on an item stand say "dont worry. Be happy" awesome game
Maannnn when dey finna release da update bruhh
Would anyone be able to assist me in the help section?
Do pbt
Hey does anyone know at how many items on the ground do items start combining together into groups? Like say I have 1 wood and 2 wood in similar close locations, at what amount of items on the ground do they merge together to make a single stack of 3 wood
I'm not even sure materials do auto stack on the ground
cutting down a tree just now and it's individual wood pieces until picked up. Same for stone
Nah at a certain point they do start auto stacking. I'm just curious when. Like in my tree farms I'll have a bunch of wood on the ground and they'll start combining from groups of 10 to 50.
Idk how to phrase my question better tbh
Materials do not auto stack on the ground
The question makes sense, I just had to think about whether that was a feature in Valheim or not
Yes they do
to which I'm still certain it's not, Perhaps items stack if the player tries to pick them up but becomes encumbered, so then they stack?
I'll get a quick vid showcasing what i'm talking about maybe that'll make more sense.
They do sometimes
Items stack when dropped from your inventory
I think the only time they would is when the player has some level of interaction with the items
If you just break something like a tree items don’t stack
Nah if you break a tree with a high amount of items on the ground they will combine to be 1 thing of wood that has a value of 10 wood
When you use the spinning wheel (?) the items produced will stack sometimes
Same with smelting
Smelting just spits the bars out on top of each other?
Can I ping you subject in #memes-and-clips ?
send it there and I can visit the channel
Not when there’s multiple
I mean it’s weird
I'm smelting as we speak, they just fall on top of each other 😄
Cause i definitely recall seeing them fall on top of eachother
Gotta have a high amount of stuff on the ground tho for them to auto combine
However i also remember seeing them stack sometimes
Maybe it auto stacks if there’s already a stack of two or bigger on the ground
Nah just tested 1 and 1 still combine
Thats probably the cause
My home base is LITTERED
Yes I know it is. I was wondering at how many things on the ground does this interaction start happening.
I suppose they seem to, I've just never seen it:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/892970/discussions/0/3816285189349966231/
Is it just me or has anyone else observed this? I have tamed boars in separate enclosures beside each other; when I dropped a stack of 10 carrots in front of each boar, within a second or two the second stack disappears and the first stack now has 20 carrots. This also works with other items now like wood and food. I think this is the first time...
Ye I posted in #memes-and-clips too for further proof idk why i have to prove this but ye
It's a situational thing which seemingly not many of us have observed
but since it's a pretty obscure question and detailed one i doubt i'll get the answer i seek without just testing it on my own
only natural people will be like "wait huh"
ye understandable 👍
I just assumed it was some mod since I had never experienced that before.
Nah I'm playing on the PTB atm, no mods

Keep puttin things on the ground you'll get there
Wonder if the amount of instances in the area plays a role too, I generally live in high instanced areas cause I love big builds
Depends on what the exact trigger is. Could be tested easily with commands and nocost mode. Do a test with no structure built then a test with a massive structure and see if items start stacking sooner or at around the same time.
Guess the Iron shield, go!
I'm guessing it's number 4.
bosses don't despawn, right?
ok good
damn the pbt is so sick
use a club
Iron mace is excellent against bonemass.
he's so weak against blunt
Will the oceans ever be expanded upon? I want to dive for sunken ships, discover sunken cities, use a magic bubble to dive and swim through an underwater dungeon. The fact we can't dive at all is a tragedy, at least to grab items that fell through our boat.
i remember hearing somewhere that the ocean biome will also get a rework
although it could be just a rumor
I also want to spear fish or learn how to use a fishing net.
Today is the day...right guys?
the day
maybe i could fight yagluth if not 10 million random creatures would interfere all the time. why did a lox just spawn right next to me
just had a weird dream message about loki and waking with fingers in my ears. its not on the wiki
@snow trellis what do the dreams mean...?
Like do they have a purpose in the messages?
no idea
hey are they ever gonna make it so thunder in the mistlands (and in general) doesnt sound off every 5 seconds. not even close to sane and every time i hear it in the mistlands, every rabbit shreiks together making the exact same sound every time at the same interval and its driving me nuts
or just add a weather sound option, since that shits insufferable
mistlands thunder is spooky
no its annoying
is there any use for raw serpent meat
don't know
Morgen gjall!
Stew.
cook in iron cooking stand
Mistlands thunder is awesome! 🥳

What?
You can change the world modifiers to make it easier if you find it too hard.
Also a root chest piece would help against the deathsquito pierce damage.
It's the deathruns
root chest is very underrated
Get murdered, run back naked, get murdered, run back naked, get murdered, run back naked
hasnt happened to me yet
Happens all the time
Resources are so scant mostly that getting replacements 1-1 is bothersome
not if youre careful and lucky
Maybe it'll be smoothed out once early access is over
Mc?
Get murdered, don some leftover gear from another biome and bring portal mats, get to your corpse, murder what murdered you, set up portal, grab what you can, go trough portal and put the leftover gear away, don the recovered gear.
baby's first survival game
Oh minecraft
Ah okay. I'm hoping its the middle of the road update just like hildir's request was for ashlands.
wow
No you don't, you'll have a hard time getting there but it is doable.
well, there will most likely be something done to the ocean but we dont really know what, on what scale or when it will be 🙂
Maybe sea drakes will get added so you have more targets to punch.
i wouldnt recommend it considering your ship is burned by the water on top of all the enemies that swarm you
I wouldn't recommend it either but it is doable, people have apparently done it with rafts and stone hopping.
I'm expecting 3-4 new mobs, some new Poi's and thats about it. Maybe like a mini boss type thing but we'll see. It's not a full scale biome so we know that for sure. I just want a little more action in the ocean lol.
thats nuts
I'm hoping for Jörmungandr
Indubitably.
Or the rest of the leviathan
i am fairly certain he will not be in valheim, since he is currently busy coiling around midgard 🙂
Summoned
There's plenty of potential
we haven't seen loki, fenrir, mimir
Thor is flying about though
loki is tied up, same fenrir, mimir i am not sure atm
tied up?
yes, and snake venom driping on his head
dont think so
They have so much lore to play with
Waiting for Ragnarok so he can battle it out with Thor.
Baldur has 3 gates now, he's quite busy.
well i am not sure if baldur is still alive, and if he is not then we should start getting ready for ragnarok 😄
How do you
Do you guys think that some earlier bosses should get more moves in their move sets? Every boss in the game has 3 moves except The Queen and ||Foder|| so I feel like at least bosses like Yagluth and Moder should get a few moves as well.
Baldur is near on invincible
mistletoe, simple
Yeah, he's still a god
That was a well kept secret
only his mother and odin knew, maybe mimir
and yet he was killed by mistletoe arrow shot by a blind guy 😄
would be good to see the big names eventually
Coincidence?
nah, Loki (as always...)
All we get atm are glimpses of odin, or what might be odin, a few ravens and thor flying in the distance
I knew I smelled a conspiracy.
Either thor or krampus, guy sure loves to "gift" me a lump of coal
yagluth spawns an entire fulin village
i really hope Giant yetis are in the deep north
uhh I don't think so lol. He has meteors, slam and fire breath 🥶
Drag him into a hole and stand on the rim using stagbreaker
Most of the bosses are so ridiculous I used a hammer aoe or stood out of range and fired a lot of arrows
Either was doable
Elder was a struggle and a lot of running around pillars and fire arrows, or prepatch use campfires
The rest are just lolburgers
I think it sounds like the bugs
I made a hut in a tree for bonemass because he hit hard and has lots of health
I hid under a rock that I dug under for moder and used fore arrows because silly damage
I pulled yagluth into a hole I dug and aoe him to death
I hid behind a pillar and used a lot of stagbreakers to aoe the queen
How does netcode work btw
I have a perfect connection to a server, no lag
Until I go near another person then it tanks hard
Are they doing something weird with server code
you can kinda just sit in bonemass face and hit it with a club
probably faster than any "cheese" method
More dangerous with all the adds he coughs up
not really, all of the mobs he spawns are weak to blunt, as is he, so with lvl4 iron mace you are in for easy time
It does 😂
"they were bros"
now my entire house is being destroyed by fulings, and I'm being spawn camped.
omg they're finally gone. the game had some mercy and despawned everything after I was killed standing on my bed 6 times xd
don't ever leave your front door open unattended ._.
Just got the game last night and I am overwhelemd but excited lol
there's no way that's what the raid is called
it is
it's happened to me before
thats hilarious
it's funnier when they aren't literally blowing up your chest room
Enjoy!
You have an amazing and quite exciting adventure ahead! 🤩
Fulings are easy work these days
Remember when they used to be the strongest mobs in the game?
Funny times
say that again when you don't have any weapons, armor, or food
I could take 10 fulings with no clothes
Why are you in a situation where you don't have weapons, armour or food?
food is expensive, and I was just building and moving inventory
I didn't expect little green men to sprint into my house
I have a fence for that
How far into the game are you
I'm in the middle of mistlands
Ah right
as opposed to?
Just curious
there's no further tech yet
I’m doing pbt ashlands with my bud we already wiped the floor with the silly mistlands boss
I wish you a great adventure
hopefully I can move my save data to steam so I can play pbt
Oh yeah i forgot not everyone plays on pc
my ass hole friends made me play this game on the xbox launcher so they could play with me, then they quit.
It’s not finished but its pretty solid for a publix test
Yikessss
what does the "Play with Vulkan" startup option mean?
Means playing using Vulkan drivers rather than DirectX.
gotcha, thanks :)
It can make the game a bit smoothwr
hi
Just making sure mistlands is different from swamp right?
Weeeeell……..
They are actually pretty similar in the sense that the environment is a challenge in addition to the mobs
it certainly is different 😄 just not sure if in the way you are hoping for XD
Swamp you are always wet - mistlands is… misty.
Not so good for seeing anything 😂
You see like shit in both
But mistlands is worse in every way
At night I would agree
mistlands doesn't have a permanent wet debuff
just started playing, can i progress in this game solo?
it is primarly a solo game, so yes 😄
ah, ive seen some of the later bosses and they just looked hard for a solo lol
however if you want to play with friends it has the co-op option
They can be - but that is because playing with friends makes everything look easy
true lol
i mean, the game is suposed to be hard 😄 but if it would be too hard for your taste there are difficulty sliders 🙂
The main thing is to use your brain and out game the game mechanics
Boss spams ranged attacks - find a counter and apply it with extreme prejudice 😂
What do you call a bee that lives in America? ||A USB.||
Anyone know if they are happy?
i think last time i tried playing i got to the second boss where you just hide behind pillars

Maybe this is a question that gets asked a lot, but does anyone have any idea when Ashlands might be released on the live server? I saw that the time between the release of the Mistlands on the PTB and the release on the live server was 14 days, and now it's 16 days. So it should go live soon, right?
It depends - the ptb is mostly stable, but the dev’s have been taking some feedback and adjusting things
So it might take longer than that

Somewhen between now and 30th of June.
Once the buggs have been sqaushed and the ashlands are stable and at a point the devs feel okay to realease it.
And can I keep the progress I make on the PTB when it gets live ?
I like to say no ETA cause anything could happen. Just because it took 14 days for Mistlands, does not mean it’ll be the same for Ashlands or future updates
I'll just have to make backups of my progress on the PTB and copy it back on the live server ?
Not even
once the version currently in PTB updates to live branch, you can opt out of the PTB and have the same worlds work with no issues
Don't think of it as a separate server with its own files, it's just the same game running a different version of itself.
you should make backups of your PTB worlds anyways
Ok thank you
Does ancient metal have any use?
Ancient metal?
Pretty sure that isn’t usable
How's the Ashlands PTR? Buggy or near done testing?
If I make a world now as a beta tester will it or something in it disappear when the update officially drops?
Nope, you just opt out of testing and the world will just become a regular world with everything still in it.
Alr thx
Oh I'm sorry i didn't know I had to select the role
do troll not spawn outside for the first few days or something? i am running through the black forest and i have found several troll saves but no trolls outside of those
Trolls don't always spawn outside caves.
pretty cool
can anyone give me cool items
Please don't spam
play the game?
my friend got them early somehow
the same way anybody get's cool items`?
see why would II go to the effort to produce the cool items (like the frostner or something else) and then just give it to you? and go do it again to have one for myself?
I guess he spawned them in with dev commands and i personally frown upon such doings... the game is meant to be played
Either from another world, or spawned them in.
Cheats
and if you don't want to play then don't play
Or he’s a speedrunner
speedrunners don't us cool items 😄
and what those items were?
they make do with basic stuff and get there nonetheless
I’m liking the PBT a lot so far
something like a big sword,armor with horns and some creature he was riding
yeah, then deffinetly cheats unfortunately
weeeeeelll to everybody it's own... but I would consider that cheating personally 😄
I think there’s no point in the game if you just spawn cool stuff
Am I mistaking this game with another game or was it possible to lock on to enemies
Okay fair I did once do a slight trick with another character so i could get iron to the other side of the map without having to do a 2 hour boat ride
I dont think it was
Oh alr
I think it is way more satisfying to do it the games way, and work your way through the progression and find the stuff you need and explore the world and discover it all. It takes out all of the fun to just spawn things in and be so OP that nothing can really harm you 😄
i am still at it and playing and getting better with it after 1800h + in the Game 😄 (guess what is my favorite game of all times 😛 )
Tetris.
naaaaaahhh Comander Keen 😄
Commander Keen? Someone's older than I guessed.
LOL and now I gave away how old I really am 😄
40 ish?
You don't ask a lady her age!
more like approaching slowly the 50 from the upperside 😄
I'm turning 40 in 2 months and I know about commander keen.
Hence the 40 ish.
I guess not many people below 40something still know Commander Keen 😄
I just created a cheat character and a world he would be restricted too, with the sole and expressed purpose of collecting all pieces of Valheim Lore, all Item descriptions, all Runestones, all dreams, all Raven hints.
What happens?
I get stuck gathering ressources and building a base because Base-needs-pretty.
😂 I think that speaks a lot for the game and the immersion. Damn it. I love it
Curious, how were you 'collecting' the dreams?
Sleeping as often as possible, noting down all of them
Yeah, not many people my age know commander keen, my wife who is 4 ish years older does know it though.
I salute your dedication to the cause! A true viking there!
Screenshot a possibility?
Cause I noticed my legit endgame character is missing Raven hints for some reason
Got all 25?
I ll next time I play him. So far nothing interesting of note, except for the usual.
It all started out of a debate with a friend of the lore and connections of lands. We think we are on the tail of a mystery
Not yet, am just day 8 with him so far
I started a whole new character and world for the sole purpose of playing with that character on twitch from Episode 1 to Episode "I killed the last Boss available" 😄
I'll be honest, a lot of the dreams are... mostly just filler. Pretty filler, but not really connected to the law, I think.
😂 how long did it take and how much base procrastination happened?
I'm guessing it's still ongoing.
After checking some newer Runestones and noticing similarities in older dreams…I disagree
not much yet ... as I only started streaming 5 Weeks ago... one streaming session a week ... Fredys is on day 25 in the world so ... WAY to go until killing the final boss 😄
Once he is done with the Queen I bet he can immediately continue
Freydis is a gal 😄 me always playing female characters (except of Commander Keen back in the day where no female characters 😄 )
Hmm. Alright. I wonder why. I often notice straight YouTubers playing female characters when a view from behind is possible.
I wonder why…
The greatest Warriess the tenth realm has ever seen! SKALD!
Some are based off what biome you sleep in
"Warriess" - That's a new one.
Language does evolve
Coined it. Meaning female warrior, but less wordy
if its third person, and ill be staring at an ass the entire game, i might as well stare at a female ass the entire game and not a male ass
I play a female character because I am female 😄 I come from a time playing games where you had 2 options a) play a male character that is caucasian and blonde and young or b) play not at all 😄
To be fair sometimes it’s just nice to pick the pretty character
so since there is options to be a woman in a game I am all in
Why do I always have to be some sweaty meathead grunting in every game?
So.... a warrior?
warrioress? that would be more in keeping with how english works???
That’s kinda…objectiviing, but alright. You do you.
What I don’t understand is why the YouTubers feel the need to proclaim their…urge publicly. BUT, that’s a debate for somewhere else
Ah, well then. I m not a true native speaker. But then it’s just adding a suffix
its a game, why stare at a digital male ass if it could be a digital female ass instead
Yep, through and through
You don’t have to be a native speaker to make up words that’s the fun part
It was more that you felt there was a need for a suffix than the suffix itself.
Warrioress is too clunky that’s for sure but that’s already a word
But we're meandering off topic.
yeah it is always a cause of gale and laughter when I make up words in a conversation with my italian tandempartner (not a native english speaker either) 😄
Then let’s hop back to topic
okay...lemme restart my machine i am done working...will go to the 10th world and do some "farming of cool items"
Alrighty.
Who the heck was that?
long weekend ahead. can some1 plz release the game on stable ?
Yes, you do, just like a guy, everything else is sexist privilege.
(Only in appropriate situations of course)
I hope not... 😄
Not ready yet. Needs some more cooking
😦
I can always tell them: I am not telling 😄 but asking is allowed 😄
Precisely
That's a weird take, but sure.
I mean why have one set of rules for one gender and a different set of rules for the other? But that’s off topic again
Says the person who was convinced we needed a special word for female warrior.
well i prefere a female word...because why would every word be male only?
equality means equality?
It's not, it, by very definition covers everyone, male female and everything in between.
Equality means equality in all points, not pick and choose
Sadly it doesn’t or the term female warrior wouldn’t be a thing. But no one says Male warrior
I don't expect men to open doors for me and I don't want privileges for being a woman. But I also do not want males to dominate everything ...
(Ok I think we gave up on staying on topic here)
Agreed
LOL ... back to topic: I sill have not decided where to build Ilvas forever home and that is sad 😦
I always recommend a wide open as flat as possible Meadows area away from water
OR, go crazy and build in the Mistlands
Like repurposing an excavation site
weeeeelll i would love a plains terrain with mist close by much more 😄
Hmm that should be possible I think
nah... really the mist drives me bonkers you have to put so many torches just to see in your own house??? naaaah
That’s the fun of it
does difficulty increase with players or you should increase it mannually?
And only Wisp Light get rid of Mist
Perfect for a Bathhouse
finding a spot near mist when you just begun to explore a bit the plains is a little tricky that is why i postphoned it and build up my forest base a bit 😄
Warrior / soldier isn't gendered it is used for male or female but usually it is seen as male since in the olden days most warriors were men.
Same as with doctor and a bunch of other words that are either male or female.
oh i do hate when folks just copy over the same question from other channels
😭
I disagree on the term warrior not being gendered. It’s ending is a masculine word ending from Latin. It is gendered.
Doctor and Solder are non gendered words.
BUT that might just be because English has no genders, unlike the languages that formed it, including French and Latin
it is considered bad form and frowned upon if you post the same question on multiple channels...just pick the one most likely to be helpful and WAIT for someone to answer
yeah, my bad]
teacher falls in the same category... german has female and male forms of all that professions
from what I have seen on the occasions i played with friends the number and strength of foe got incresed with the number of players ... but i could be mistaken.
Somone took pity on them and answered in #valheim-help
Though if you look it up in the dictionary they speak of a person versed in combat or something along those lines.
Yes and our female forms come down to: Add a suffix
well most of the german female forms add the suffix -in 😄 and italian does the same with -essa 😄 so yeah...
Any Xbox players in the shat
me not... oh...reminds me I wanted to fire up the game but got distracted by didactic and semantic discussion 😄
If you're after someone to play with, you could check #1024264966712340510
No I had a question about autorun. Cant get it to work
uuuuuhhh now i am happy... i totally forgot that i managed to update the fenris to full maxed out and put it on when i played last and now i see Ilva standing there in Fenris armor... makes me smile 😄
Ah, sorry, I'm not a console user.
Any word on when ash leaves PTB
nope, it eill be out when devs are happy with the state of it 🙂
Where can I mention translation issues ?
Also, I hope we get another speed-neutral or speed-boosting set in Ashlands
https://www.valheimgame.com/support/ under translation errors 🙂
wheww... i am in the mountains searching for wolves ... but i did not want that many at once 😦 good i have fenris set and outrun them 😄
Those clothes from the dwarf sister, wouldn't it be useful if they gave a farming boost, or building boost or something, to motivate players to use them
hi all, i am looking for a cool server to play on, some one have ideas?
they give a stamina boost ...yo need less of it to do the chores
they probably have over in servers-and-lfg i'd think
ty, will see there
They do... both? They reduce stamina usage with the cultivator, hoe and hammer.
nobody in servers-and-lfg responding,,, i want to join some server, so i can play with others to,, dont like it to play all by my self
can you just not block/parry starred fuling berserk attacks??
Probably with carapace buckler. But HP and upgraded shield are important factors
You can with a good enough shield
that is a pity but I can not help as i do not play on servers and know of none
Might just be a bad time of day, unfortunately. Not much you can do about it.
I only play with my friend
yeah I only have a blackmetal one. killed myself 3 times trying to parry this guy and just got smashed in the face all 3 times.
only... lol i am running around the plains with a silver one 😄
well I got into mistlands not knowing there was a plains boss so I'm back here lol
ahahhhh so you found yag altar meanwhile?
nope, not yet lol. looking now, taking down villages
Finding yag was a PAIN
And the mistlands boss even more
Bozo spawned on a different continent three thousand miles away
finding all of the bosses except eik needs somedoing and finding haldor and hildir too 😄
i managed to stumble upon yag ... just was stepping out of the forest and there the altar was 😄
I'm supposed to find a stone with its location, right? like all the other bosses
lmao. my moder did that.
Can do that, but it's actually easier to look for the altar and read the stone on that for the location.
well yeah that's what I meant
Simply, because the Yag altar are 5 huge pillars raising out of the ground and they look a bit like five fingers.
Thorin my friend how were your dreams?
Without fish, unfortunately. 😦
what a pity but my net was empty too 😄 better than a nightmare i guess 😄
I dunno.
If you are able to tame the nightmare you got a nice ride to fight any boss. 😄
At some point nightmares started getting equipped with guns to blast the creepies. But at that point not sure if they're even nightmares anymore
Yes
If you want a hint, try || looking for stone structures ||
I have been even without knowing it's there, found a circular stone structure once but the inside was empty. just a circle
To make clear what I meant:
The vesigvir of Yagluth is bloody hard to find.
The altar, however, isn't.
The "five fingers sticking out of the ground" are easy to spot and the moment you read the rune stone at that place, the location of the altar - which you already are standing at - is added to your map.
not every stone henge has one
sometimes they are just two standing stones with a lintel too... so yeah compared to the massive altar that is not to be overlooked and can be seen from afar ...boss stones are really hard to find
and with the queen it is like in the swamp find a mine with a runestone and you know where to look 😄
I found one in a random stone watchtower
should I tame a lox before attempting to fight the next boss? 🤔
im not sure if it benefits a whole lot
hi
If you breed 50 of them they will finish off half of bonemass life while you watching from the side line 😄 but i can not be bothered to breed them up to that high number 😄
50 for HALF of that thing's hp????
You could, but it would be smarter if you try to lure multiple Lox to that altar and tame them over there.
That way you got several Lox fighting for you.
Wolves work too, but you may have to import them from another biome in case you have already trained a few.
If you got a mountain nearby, try to tame some wolves over there, then breed them close to the altar.
I think I'll stick to fighting the boss 1 on 1 lol
exactly my point of view 😄
btw... surely ballistas aren't buddy buddy with bosses... right?
They're the only faction in this game that absolutely hate every living being.
Doesn't matter if it's a player, a tamed animal, a monster or a boss.
Ballista's simply shoot them all.
Which also means they're the first AI-driven robotic monsters later known as Terminators.
it sees movement, it shoots, simple as that 😄
so technically you could pay2win and just build a crap ton of ballistas aimed at the boss you're about to summon?
Well, if you arm them and make sure the boss won't bypass them, it might work.
Yes. But you get it at Mistlands, where the boss is inside a dungeon, and any other boss earlier is irrelevant as you already killed them
But nothing would probably stop players from trying them on the last bosses (Unless they're inside dungeons too)
eh, I guess that's quite likely then, if they realized that the ballista they added in the update could be used to cheese the boss
putting them in dungeons adds some extra challenge anyway
if earlier bosses dropped something useful for grinding I guess that would be a viable strat
Fire res is important
Do ballistas even attack whomever built them? 😨
I once saw Moder get destroyed by like 30 ballistas
yes, they hate you as much as they hate your enemies
Only if you walk in front of them. 😉
And no trophies placed
however, giving them trophies focuses their insatiable hatred towards 1 specific type of enemy to end their entire bloodline
Got the worst luck, had at least 4 sea serpents nearly kill me when I first got into this game months back, now I'm crusing at night with a harpoon in a storm and no spawns in 10 minutes of sailing the ocean
oh i do love so much that saxophone playing in the meadows
Yikeeess
gosh me is really the forgetful gamer... my pocket portal ist unnamed to slap it down fast if need be
and then i went and build a portal house for the mountain portals
and put the portal in .. and went on to go trhough the pocket portal up the mountains... broke it explred more and it would not connect when i build it up again
i was so puzzled had to run back to the next portal i had... a while to run...wenn i finally came home the pocket portal was connected and i though HUH were does it lead to then the one from the mountain is up my sleeve????
turns out when i walked through i turned up at the new mountain portal house
forgot to name the portal when I placed it and the moment I broke the pocket portal it connected
glad I always have at least two portals on every continent i visit...that coul dhave been me stranded far away from home... rafting homewards for 10 days or something 😄
new valheim security guideline for the modern viking: always have an "emergencyexit" portal at your base that is always unconnected for those times you mess up and end up with a useless portal in your pocket and can not teleport home. 😄
I do the same thing, except my pocket portal is always named SOS
easy and fast to type, and no pitfalls from relying on blank name portals~
maybe i should us pp but i got so used to just slamming it down in a hurry (like in case of being hunted or something) it could kill me to stop press e and type pp enter
currently I have many portals that are not connected to anything... but I suppose I'd like to get back to my base, not somewhere else that is not my base
is there an up to date roadmap available anywhere?
I just use Google Maps.
there's not really much to say, next is ashlands that is coming soon, then comes Deep North
Waize works fine too.
My first instinct was to suggest they'd be available at a local service station. God, I'm old 😛
at least those work even if your smartphone is out of power 😄
Well, over here you could get them in souvenir shops or bookshops a long time ago.
Guess that makes me old too.
Best option is still to look for the road signs and in case you don't see those, "ask" directions.
But that would mean real person-to-person interaction and who knows what strange illness you may get from that.
I mean, you may even decide to put your phone aside for a while! 😱
Eww! The last thing I want is an acute case of extravertitis.
well, fixed that mistland island I rose from the ocean with a mod... now can cultivate it
Do I need to make a new world if I wanna make a dedicated server on nitrado xbox And can I still change the settings somehow
depends if you are Generation Instant Gratification or Generetion X 😄
I've decided to call the newest generation, generation T (for TikTok).
@sungbeanie I'm in the same boat. I think you have to make a non dedicated. Change settings how you want. Start it then logout. Then I think you have to have a pc to take that world folder and move it to somewhere idk. I tried doing research, but I'm dumb.
They're generation "I" - for Impatient - to me.
well looks like the wiki page for food already got some ashland foods added in...
pretty sure that wasn't there last I checked very recently
There were already spoilers about that biome on the wiki the very first day the PTB was out.
from what I've herd they're making wiki pages but not posting them yet to avoid spoiling
ooooookay... if i am running around with 51 armor where a bad hit could onehit you i should at least have a blackmetal shield eh?
It might help, yes.
Black metal spear might help too.
as far as i know there is no blackmetal spear?
Or a black metal sword, a porky- ehm, porcupine or frostner.
blackmetal ategir
frostner i have... helps survive the mountains
I'd like a porky Mistweaver - maybe it has more clearance area, but higher movement penalty 😛
planning to go full wizard lizard, but pretty sure still would be good idea to have a melee weapon if I run out of mana right?
for the fuling i mostly don't bother much though... fleshrippers will do nicely thankyou 😄
I like the Himmnafl in that case. Keeps you at range and you don't have the danger of not having enough health with a shield to properly block and parry.
suppose I'll go with that, been using Atgeir on this chara from the start
or at least from bronze age
the himminafl is nowadays the first atgeir i make...it is great in the mist in a tight spot provided you got the stamina left 😄
you've been missing out. Atgeir a lot of fun to use
I used atgeir a lot back in the day but lately i prefere the quicker weapons that do not drain stamina as much... i am better with a shield and spear or knife than an atgeir
Bronze is the first one I make. Much easier to demolish trolls in caves than with other weapons, especially as I'm farming their skins for armor.
It's also great for harvesting all the flax you grow.
with my fists skill pretty high also the fleshrippers are a fantastic option with the fenris armor (if you can dodge and not get hit..they do not block well 😄 )
a sledge does that too 😄
I'm planning to try this new farming technique called pyro harvesting... surely nothing could go wrong blasting your plants with fire right?
It might be cool if we could grown coffee beans; you could roast them while harvesting
that would be great
sigh taming lox is a game of patience... i have been at it for quite a time now... but i needed to raid those villages too.. can not sit out 2 days next to them looking at hearts bubble up
taming? that's the easy part. those assholes take a lot of patience to not butcher them all
well it should take 1 day and night 😄
if you are close the whole time
That's why I never tame them. It's easier to hunt them 😉
multiple escapes, multiple attempts... including destroying my workbench which caused fulings to spawn in my spawn protected base and they nearly completely destroyed their pen
i do not stay out in the night in the plains with mountain food and only a plainslevel shield ... i want to live 😄
that should tell you not to pen them in 😄
I tame them...feed them let them breed and kill the fuling that spawn and pick up the spoils
which was the moment I decided to just butcher them and hunt them for food the classic way instead
I do not breed lox for food...but for watchdogs 😄
Now I'm picturing a lox in a cowboy hat singing "Don't Fence me in"
Lox is the tentacle monster in lethal company "This wall cannot contain me"
Lox are ok for watchdogs unless you get seekers, raids or at night...
if you got enough it works wonderfully they even gang up against gjall... but you need to give em space to breed and not pen them in so much... and be around and feed them to have a whole herd of them
Lox against Gjall?
I have a few pet ballista for gjall
planning to collect some gjall trophies before I setup a base deeper into the mistland so I can avoid team fire
You only need one. The trophy isn't consumed when it's used on a ballista.
Are your lox some kind of circus acrobat troupe, where they balance on one-another's shoulders in some kind of anti-Gjall pyramid?
wait seriously? just 1?
Yup. You just use it on the ballista to turn the specific targeting on or off.
at least that's how they kept escaping my pen
works nicely...the gjall comes down to fight them ...same with fulings you can see the gjall come quite low enganged with a fuling village
Nah.
She just yells: "Jump Fido. Fetch Gjall!" and they do as asked.
i saw my lox bring down a gjall and the ticks to boot and only lost one out of the 10 that engaged
Ahh, the lox aggro the gjall. That's interesting. And the ticks don't just destroy the lox?
War loxes when? gib them weapons and you'll conquer the world
lox so AOE damage the tixk are dead before you know
Mounting ballista's on a Lox?
War loxes!
some nice shiny spikes to front and a ballista on back, that's how you'll be unstoppable
I always make a point to have a herd of lox around my plains base
Well, that still counts as ONE!
gave up on those pesky wolves and boar... the die way to easy if i need protection... lox are more relyable watch dogs 😄
No, they're Watch Lox.
and on top they are cute as heck 😄
They come in and inexplicably save you at the last minute; they're Lox Machina.
And they're probably super loxians too. They're just charging that loxiloxiha for 5 episodes and never see it happen
need to go to the mountains again...need to steal to eggs to put up as deko and i did not find a fenring trophy yet...
I’m new to this game and unfamiliar with the frequency in patches so when a patch hits the test realm how long does it take for the normal game to typically see it?
as the big updates are rare and far between there is no "typically"
afraid we will just have to wait it out...
No typical exists, unfortunately. It's very much "It's done when it's done", until they devs are happy with the fixes and balance of the game, no glaring bugs, etc.
Understood thank you 💖
probably talking about the PTB to main branch release?
Yes
They're very much against rushing something to meet a schedule and having an inferior product
and i am very much with them on that account!
mistlands was about 2 weeks from PTB to main, but from what I've herd this one is going to take longer
or at least seems like it's going to
It already has so speculation is redundant.
It's already taken longer, but there is a lot more content here as well. More than Mistlands + Hildir from my estimation
not by much if it released tomorrow
or today out of nowhere... but still highly doubt that
It isnt.
Tomorrow is Ascension Day.
Most of the world has a day off.
Doubt any company would release new content on that day.
btw just wondering if it's intentional that food wiki page got updated to ashlands?
What day?
never heard of it
No, people just can't follow instructions.
thoughts so... well thanks for confirmation
Ascension Day
If you don't know what it is, google it.
Ascension Day, it's in the same message
Most of the world?! What?
lazy devs lazy irongate company so u have to wait more then you expected
Sure. But the implication is that I should already know.
a national holiday in christian majority countries. irrelevant if you're not religious but I'll take that day off work happily
i mean, today we had a day off, because of Victory day, dont know what ascesion day is 🤔
I'm in a christian majority country, I was raised christian as a child, I've literally never ever heard of this holiday
If it occurs in multiple countries, it's (by definition) an international holiday.
And what's Victory day?
Because that's unknown to me.
Unless you mean VE day?
Which isn't a day off in most of the European countries anyway.
idk how you've not herd of it then... pretty damn important day in Christian religion...
end of ww2
but i think we should switch channels 😄
If this channel isn't the place to discuss acts of the gods, I don't know what is.

Is there a community server I could join?
if valheim gods then sure, christian gods? really dont think so
When PTBs go live, do they release another patch alongside it or they just make it live and that's it?
So VE day indeed.
In my country that day is celebrated at May 5th, as the occupying forces capitulated on that day to the Allied forces attempting to liberate my country.
I believe in Belgium it's remembered at September 6th, in France it's not even celebrated at all, as they got November 11th to remember and I doubt Germany would even like to celebrate it.
surely some in #1024264966712340510 😄
Thanks
speaking vo Valheim gods... i haven't seen Odin around lately in my game ... i hope he has not caught a cold or something
it indeed is not something celebrated in losing countries, mine included
He's been pestering me in my game.
Next time I'm seeing him I'll tell him to visit you again. OK?
He's been real quiet since ashlands boss released his diss track
I keep trying to go up and say hello, and he keeps disappearing in a puff of smoke. Odin is a voyeur.
last I saw him chilling with a Lox. Never seein him since... maybe the Lox ate him and gained his powers?
If someone saw him ... say hello frm me i am missing him here 😄
seems like it's primarily a catholic thing. in any case, not really relevant to this channel
sigh non to fhat three lox ate ate... not in the morning not in the afternoon and not now... how am I supposed to tame them if they do not eat the cloudberries i throw?
it takes a bit of sitting and waiting and hiding
I accidentally killed one too many at my farm and I'm kinda dreading taming another one or transporting one from my main base again
You should try throwing rocks at them. Perhaps you can knock them out when you hit their head and force feed them.
i think those lizards are very short sighted... they often don't find the food right 2m in front of them 😛
they're certainly big enough to be dinos, but I don't think they are
should get them some glasses
That means going back to the mountains and kill some more Golems.
those "short sighted" lizards often seem to spot me from quite the distance
Or play Force of Nature 2 and import the lenses you need to craft in that game into Valheim.
That usually happens with short sighted beings.
They see very well in the distance, but have terrible eye sight up close.
That's why humans wear those "reading glasses".
oh now i get it
would it be unwise to start a new playthrough before ashlands fully releasing?
I have a server ready for me and my friends to play and I've been itching TO play but have been holding back until it releases, but that itch is getting stronger and stronger
Lox are blind and deaf. You can walk up to them and they don't hear you until you poke 'em in the butt with a weapon.
I remember hearing something like, you wanna start a new world for the update
You shouldn't need to start a new world unless you've already explored your Ashlands area
oh fr?
Yup. I've been playing in the PTB and it updated fine. It should be perfectly reasonable to start now, it will take a while for you to get to that tier anyway.
alllrighty, thanks, really nice to know that
finally have something to do again after beating a minecraft modpack lol
probably a reptile thing in general. Seen those big chonky froggos being fed and they do not seem to react much unless the thing is moving
but speaking of sight... just a funny idea for deep north. Maybe add a large hawk/falcon whatever, make it so it can see you from max distance, swoop down on you, lift you up and drop you from 100m
Because that's not terrifying at all!
what did I just find lol. small fuling settlement with no buildings but 2 fires and FOUR bonfires 😅
good thing fall damage is capped at 100 😄
i dont know about that, they seem pretty aggressive, even when just getting into their general vicinity
They can hear you fighting other things decently, but they have less general awareness around them than anything else on the plains.
and they have a 6th sense for detecting ships
they seriously have something against ships
65 tissue from a single skull!

it was out in the coast as well, free tissue
idk how many times I've hit 69 jumping skill but here I am again
I s'pose it's your favorite number?
no, but it's a funny one.
my buildings are always hungry for blood
its not a real castle if the foundation isnt build from your own blood and broken ankles
GRMBL!
My game really don't want me to tame Lox.
Tamed #1: killed by a Deathquito.
Tamed #2: killed by another Deathsquito
Tamed #3: Killed by a bunch of fullings.
Tamed # 4, 5,6: while trying to breed them, I got the "you are being hunted event"
in this save died only once to a deathsquito because forgor to eat. but they've annoyed me just as much as mosquitoes do each summer
like that one time suddenly 3 squitoes did coordinated drive by... there was about 3 second gap between each sting and didn't see any of them coming
1 stung, started focusing on it and 2nd one stung from behind, kept focusing on the first one since it was about to take another bite again... but a 3rd one stung first
another village cleared now I only need one more teddybear
'skeeters one of the only enemies where walking away doesnt help much
They're the most annoying enemy in the game. I completely spawn proofed my island, but still during 200 days 2 of them somehow found their way into my base.
but skeeters as you put it don't need much to kill either you can basically box them with bare fists and they will drop out of the sky 😄
in my first plains base in my original save they did regular drive bys every time I exited my teleport tower...
very funny when you've died and going for that commando death run, but then suddenly one of them just swoops in out of nowhere before you can even leave the base
Me: "Let's try to move 4 of my wolves to the plains so I can breed them into a Yagluth killing army.
The game: "Cool! You're trying to transport animals. Time to throw in a storm!"
🤦♂️
Can I ask a dumb question?
Didn't you just do that?
You just did. 😄

you gotta stay one step ahead and ask for four next time
Ok if I destroy the workbench, my buildings won’t decay? I played survival games where that is always the case, they decay
You forgot one of the main rules about computer gaming:
"There are no dumb questions, only dumb answers."
when exposed to elements it will decay, workbench doesent affect that
just keep the workbench, it's cheap af. but no they don't decay
They won't.
But you won't be able to repair or build anything.
workbench will allow repairs, it doesn't affect the natural decay of buildings
I thought the main one is that everyone on the Internet is a man until proven otherwise
Nope, that one only goes for MMORPG's.
Which means:
"Many Men, On-line Role Playing Girls".
so everyone on the internet is a man cuz no woman will show actual "proof" lol
too depressing to believe everyone is an adult. 12yo edgelord pre-teen boy is a much healthier bar for expectations
I have two bases now, my first small one became a fallback shelter in case anything happens :3
might as well, with so many people acting like 12yo's
When I was a 12 y/o it was still last century,,,,,,
my friend just spawned 500 woods in front of me while flying how is that possible
your friend is using dev commands
can he spawn cool items like weapons?
he can spawn anything
can you use them?
yeah
can u drop me cool items
wdym
???

im not giving you stuff
wait isnt it banable?
why do you keep begging people here for stuff? just spawn it in yourself
You should ask that in your game where your friend spawned the wood.
And if he doesn't want to do that for you, well, do it yourself in a solo game for your character; then bring them to the game with your friend.
Just be aware that when you spawn items, you won't learn anything about the gathering and crafting mechanics of this game.
i dont know how to and im kinda scared to get banned
im sorry but i dont really know how to use them,and my friend wont tell me either and thats why im kinda sad and dissapointed about it
google is a great way to learn
You won't get banned for spawning items.
I'm not sure how the rules about item begging are over here, but personally I'm not in favor of that.
As for the spawing mechanics, there's a page about it on the Wiki and I'm sure one or more of the Steam Guides about Valheim deal with it as well.
thank you very much
question: can you grow any plant (besides mushrooms) on plains ground?
because wow that would be really nice to know for my next playthrough
ive not heard of begging people to spawn items being bannable but begging people to give you a free copy of the game is bannable/not allowed\ frowned upon
any plantable ones, yes
starting in the plains would be so much more viable
I crave adventure
i believe so?
atleast flax and wheat wont grow in lower biomes
All farmable crops from Black Forest to Plains can be grown in the Plains biome.
The ones from Mistland and the upcoming biomes can't.
wait does that mean everything grows in mistlands ground?
no
flax and barely have to be grown in the plains
that only has mistlands stuff grow i suppose
and if ashlands has plants (idk) those would likly only grow in ashlands
If I switch to the public test, will my existing worlds work? And when Ashlands is officially released, can I go back to stable and all my worlds be fine? Or are they not compatible?
i stood behind a bush next to the hearts bubbling lox for full 2 min...then i could not bear it no longer and went on adventuring again 😛
it is gonna take a LOOOOONG time to tame them 😄
yeah, the requirement to be present while taming is a bit tedious, especially since it's at least a half hour
lol Thorin guess what i just shot out of an old ruined house 😄
It will.
Just make sure you make a backup of your existing world, in case you want to drop out of the PTB before the release of Ashlands.
Saves are only forward compatible, not backward compatible.
Another " 'til we Mead again"?
build a fully enclosed box to stuff yourself in and you can go afk for a bit which can workaround the time limit a bit
number 18 that is 😄
is there a time estimate for ashlands release?
first half 2024
as said above, it will simply come out when devs are happy with it 🙂
got a big group of us looking to start fresh and run up though ashlands, just wondering if its worth starting now or waiting for it to be off test first
So if I switch to PTB now, and just stay there until the official release, then switch to stable...I'm good? And where are the savegames located (I can look this up if it's not common knowledge).
well, depends on how fast you will play 😄 the deadline is less than 2 months away
You should be, yes. Savegame and backup stuff, check the pinned post in #valheim-help
Yes, you should be good.
As for the locations..... î
