I donβt know, it gives a nice little boost. Itβs not necessary though. I do fine on Vhard and I tend to skip deer armor, going naked until troll
Nope. They just come in groups. Climbing a tall rock they can't can sometimes help, or at least getting backed up against a wall so they can only come from one direction π
And keep respawning when you kill them until the event is over
lol the first two were on me before I could see them and half my health was already gone. parry one, but three more on me
ultimately, they pushed me off the mountain and I died from fall damage lmao
Still tho leather Armor ..... π€
PLEASE fix the atgeir hitreg
Why do you think it needs a buff? It's perfectly aligned with the other armors in the game, it's got less armor than the sets you get in the Black Forest for a reason.
the smallest height difference is enough to make you miss your attacks
every weapon could use a buff for how high/low it hits, melee on a slope is so bad π
FR
meanwhile me trying to fight five wolves on a mountain slope so steep I have to sprint to keep from sliding down
I think it's intentional since enemies are dumb... you can reposition the battle to a place more amenable if you need to.
Idk ... I just want people to give it more attention
And jumping all over the place to try and hit them since hitboxes have holidays
I build it pretty much every playthrough, which is more than I can say about bronze or iron armor π€·ββοΈ
Yet people complain about dying in a bf.
people complaing about dying in every biome, black forest being at near the bottom of "worst" biomes for dying
Well maybe some game journos still complain about meadows, but don't think anybody else would
I complain about the Meadows... I always die there! It's usually because I forget to eat or a tree falls on me early on, but...
ngl I wish I could save scum but have never managed to pull it off
oh right, the TREES! How dare they fight back
Think you can save scum if you unplug your pc
I donβt personally see the point though
I feel like people die often because they treat the game like a hack and slash from the get go, and a lot of the time its not. Analyze the situation your stats and then adjust the battle ground to provide the best odds of victory.
call it bethesda brain. sometimes I just wanna see how something works without worrying about the consequences
It's a survival and prep game, it's not an action game. It just happens to have pretty decent combat, and stellar building mechanics.
that or "WE BAAAALLLLLL"
Ball or Bail?
There are devcommands and world modifiers you can do that with π
You can if you got the skill to back it up π
if there wasn't a skill drain on death I'd be bolder about trying stuff out
actually, maybe I'll just mod the skill drain away π€
Ngl on my first playthrough I didn't even
On minimum death penalty I think itβs only a 1% skill drain
Properly realize skill drain was a thing
right but doesn't minimum death penalty also make you retain your gear
Skills are useful, but they're not really that important in the grand scheme of things. They're not meant to be grinded on.
I kinda like the "go pick up your shit" aspect lol
except some skills benefit disproportionally a lot about skills and rely on high skill level to do good...
You've got a 10 minute reprieve on skill loss when you die, and it resets each time you die I believe.
all ranged suck at low level compared to high level
The game is also its hardest for those that use a shield and sword build I think. Much easier to lose your footing and fall being on tempo in a battle.
oh is there a good approach that doesn't rely on one-handed plus shield? lol
well you are doing significantly less damage due to the quality of your ranged weapon, so of course your doing more damage in the later game with a higher skill.
Atgeir gang? π
I am a spear user personally. great versatility.
especially once you master the throw
bruh i decided to not look for turnips anymore and decided to leave the swamp going to the sealed tower and the first thing i find while running in a straight line is a turnip
Dodge rolling will avoid all damage from any attack
π€ hmm. tbh I took a long break from playing so I don't even remember how I settled on doing most stuff with sword/mace plus shield
so dodge roll gives iframes?
You.. uhh... should avoid the sealed tower if you're just at swamp level
its a common "strategy" for those that treat the game like a hack and slash lol
nah i have full black metal gear
Insane i-frames
do IT!
okay I felt like it was but the pacing of combat confuses me so much I never trust my eyes lol
bruh. have you ever taken a look at bow or magic skill level bonuses? For bow it's an insane improvement. And really damn good for magic
This is an i-frame demonstration, where I was showing how I like to kill golems: #memes-and-clips message
for melee it's a bit more "meh"
Elemental magic scales the same as melee
Bow skill is INSANE though, and blood magic scales super well too
comparable to the spear. but takes like 5x longer for maybe a 10% additional buff if that.
I would look into magic more if it was available sooner.
not exactly. elemental gets double scaling
oh shit are you folks THROWING the spear?
spells costing less to cast is big
lost my spear the first time I threw it and said no thanks lmao
But having skills in the 80's by the time magic becomes available just sounds annoying.
stamina is whatever, it regens really fast anyway
Even when it's available when it is, it is insanely powerful at level 1. Spend a couple game days learning how it works and you skill will be 10-15, which is plenty.
if you know how to throw it its very powerful and can give you a significant edge in a difficult fight.
well I'm glad it's a good tradeoff then
Just don't miss π Especially on a mountain...
prolly not gonna do it tho because I'm controller gang and can't aim on this thing π
yeah, before one of their last updates, controllers were super good with spears. you could actually throw the spear behind you while running the oppsite direction.
The Ashlands update now has that as an option
mountains are gonna be the death of me (well, several deaths of me)
trying to fight but I use all my stam just trying not to slide down the damn thing
no? exact same %s just eitr instead of stamina
Sometimes you need to run around the edge and find a better place to go up the hill. Some mountain edges are just steep and unforgiving.
in related news, can anyone tell me whether drake helmet offers cold protection? I uhh am using some secondary gear to retrieve my three gravestones on this mountain
and stamina reduction is basically worthless compared to etir cost reduction...
It does not. Wolf chest, fenris chest and the wolf cape are the mountain-tier gear that provide cold resistance.
got it. gonna mead it up then
A campfire nearby will provide resistance as well, as long as it's lit
But yes... mead is the most reliable option at that point I would think π Unless you want to kill some lox for their pelts π
now to craft some weapons for the sole purpose of getting my gear back
thought I could just run to it without weapons but that was a bad idea
but eh... I'll for sure be grinding some elemental skill level soon. Didn't want to start with that and just wanted to have fun with it, but the more I use it the more I notice that the low skill level compared to my melee weapon skill gets in the way of doing great
Finewood bow should hopefully be pretty cheap for you to recreate.
I'm confused about how to fight wolves with a bow
still good... but level 20 vs. 70 just isn't even a fair comparision, it's time to level up
No, stamina cost reduction can be super nice. Especially when running 1 or 0 stamina foods
Still I agree eitr reduction is better, but magic scaling twice as good is a bit of a reach. I'd rather have
+282% damage/knockback and -66% stamina,
than +141% damage/knockback and -33% eitr
See them before they see you
that level of belief in myself is what got me into this mess π
They run straight at you. If you're talking about the "being hunted" event, you need to wait for it to time out then there should only be 2 or 3 left to handle.
never said it's twice as good, just that it gets scaling from 2 sources that contribute towards DPS a lot...
stamina regens so fast that the reduction even with 0 stamina food isn't that big of a deal compared to slow ass etir
I see
and I eexplained what it means since you did not
I guess it's just a disagreement of how useful stamina is
Use magic, and carry a himmnafl. Magic uses like, no stamina... I use two eitr and one stamina food, when you run low on eitr after like 4-5 fireballs, just swap to the atgeir and you've got full stamina to use it.
but probably could have used a better term too, can see how it's easy to misunderstand
use magic, carry himmin afl, have bow with frost arrows, use atgeir and demolisher to hit through walls, and raise terrain so the enemy can't get to you to be guaranteed to win
All the things I hate most π
But it seems to use some, I was overburdened at 0 stamina and noticed I couldn't cast spells anymore π
They should add a weapon that is super powerful but consumes both eitr and stamina
don't forget hp
or maybe it's just a bug, or kind of intended but overlooked... being at 0 stamina probably just prevents you from doing a lot of actions that technically do not require stamina
A blood weapon/staff
I think it's intentional. Being overburdened should be... a burden. π
ye but... magic and stuff. just do it. You think mages do anything else than sit on a cozy chair all day, exit their high tower for 1 minute to blast that poor thing with all etir and go back to chilling?
I know this is too complicated to give a full response, but do you folks tend to move your "main" base as you progress? or maybe don't have a "main" base?
Using staff of embers sure makes you feel like Megumin... use all your etir just to kill 1 enemy (in Mistland) π
but it sure did look nice blaze
A greyling
Yes. I usually end up with one main base in the Plains toward endgame because it can grow almost all the crops, and tends to have welcoming weather. I still leave others around though, for access to various bosses or the boss stones at the world center. I don't typically ship huge amounts of materials to the new base though, I usually gather it anew.
I usually make a plains base but on this world I found a nice meadows/swamp/plains split with mountains nearby and a draugr village and fuling village side by side and I thought it was a cool location so I'm gonna set up in the meadows here
a plains lake would be very tempting location if it didn't sux for transportation
I assume you would generally wait until you're well-geared for plains before base building there?
Hello peoples, My freinds and I started a server togther but the server host(not me) is not always on when Im on. I know theres a way but I can seem to find how to enter the server without the host being active. CAn someone help me out with this. I can find anything trustworthy enough
Depends on how saucy I'm feeling. I can handle pretty much anything in the Plains that's not a Fuling Village in Root armor.
e.g. rn I can fight the little fulings easily and take on a couple deathsquitoes but don't have the firepower to deal with lox or probably the berserkers. so I'm thinking don't build in that biome just yet. if it's good to build, maybe I'll hang onto my meadows base until I can handle plains
The solution is you will need a dedicated server. You can rent them, or run them yourself with enough technical knowledge.
do you know of any free options!?
Free options will take some skill, being able to run a server on a computer you own. You can look in #dedicated-server , but it's not really a turn-key process.
ok I check it out thank you
main flaw with this game is I can't keep necks as a pet

if you have an Atgeir, you're ready for Lox
sweep for stun, than stab stab
just have to use the sweep a bit earlier, lox normal bite attack is faster and will hit you if you use it even slightly too late
tomorrow is the day right guys?
Probably not, no.
definitely tomorrow we're looking at ||tuesday||
I hope its at end of month or later, to busy next 3 weeks. π€·ββοΈ
No hate 
Isn't there a social public chat where you can send photos?
#screenshots for gameplay pictures.
I want it asap but I need to finish my grounded new game plus first too π©
@drowsy magnet What's tomorrow now?
Another day of 2024
What else would it be?
And maybe a holiday in some country/town somewhere in the world
the 2nd day of the week the 14th day of the month
will we ever see valheim on ps?
Not in the immediate future.
Probably not until after full release if anything. It's only on XBox because Microsoft approached Irongate about it.
i see
well considering Sea of thieves us coming to psn we will be seeing hiem sooner rather than later on PS and were getting the master cheif collection on Psn
How are the two things remotely related?
Microsoft is there boss and they are always hungry for money and to them its an easy way for them to make more money
Is WHOSE boss?
I love magica i summoning a fire ball in the sky! >.<
Summons's a legion of the undead in the amazon rainforest >.<
Armageddon is at hand
they are currently under a contract with microsoft once that gets over with youll probably see it after ashlands is complete
I don't think so, and why would it be after Ashlands?
unless you dont trust gamerant which this info is coming from
Probably best to avoid talking nonsense without evidence.
Uhh.... no. Coffee Stain is the publisher for Iron Gate's game, and Microsoft just made a deal to get a popular game ported to the XBox. MS has no ownership that I'm aware of.
My strategy when I frst started plains (I'll go to plains with Black Forest gear now, I ain't scurred) was finding a neighboring forest or meadow biome and building a base there. Then I could make plains trips while still having a good place to retreat to if things got too hairy.
hmm jun 15th maybe but know one knows truly lol
I think it's not uncommon that MS gives a small dev/publisher money to help them port to xbox but I haven't heard any mentions of that money actually giving MS a stake in those companies. probably functions more like an advance on the potential earnings from being on game pass. Wouldn't shock me if sometimes MS tries to negotiate console exclusivity as part of those deals...but I haven't heard any stories of that happening
I'm not privy to details, but I gather that MS provides some help with the porting work, basically, and that's it.
No ,Piktiv are doing the port.
I think MS might have facilitated that? Whatever it was. IG was encouraged to port to XBox, and I don't believe any controlling interest changed.
what can one do if they master 100% of the kabbalah >.<
God damnit I severely underestimated just how much stone you need in this game
Iβve been playing with infinite resources on our coop world and Iβve only just reached Iron Age on here and all I have to show for it is a stone circle with a staircase going into it
no you need 100k stone just to get anything done
if you are building things, the answer to "do i have enough wood/stone/iron" is always no
I have 6 chests full of wood and I just know it wonβt be enough
i have 10 carts full + palls of stone layinbg about
thats the thing with journalism youre never suppose to 100% trust it
100% agreed but we cant have a discussion about it?
Nothing is true, everything is permitted.
we can but itll be criticized obviously
Fine by me should be there right too
I've played some games where you can get struck by lightning but I can't remember...is valheim one of them?
nah sadly
minecraft π
Breath of the Wild π
You guys think poison resist or pierce resist is more important for swamp?
I'm leaning towards poison, also because I don't have a mace so blobs can be annoying
so ive noticed that there are 2 kinds of people... " i need it now" and "ill get it eventually"
poison IMO but I'm no expert
i would also say poison, and with root harnesk + poison resist mead you have both π (also root mask has poison resistance but mead gives more and its quite cheap to make)
pretty sure hes not using meads
Hello, is there any information about when the update will be released?
^
nope
Yea and I got 16 roots, so my choice is between mask or harnesk (at least I think they take 10 each to make)
in less than 2 months π the deadline is june 30th
not using weapons is quite tedious like you said, Ive got troll armor now but it took me hours this morning. Each troll takes me over 10 minutes easily
ok
since we're on hard id imagine the archers arent nearly as bad id go poison
but then again a 2 star archer is probably still going to be really bad
Did not know the Hildir Quest bosses raid you once defeated. Oy vey.
yea. Also I've barely been in swamp just ran through to find some aboms and got 2 pretty quick. Just need 1 more then I can make both
Any news on Ashlands release date?
No.
not really news but they will be out in less than 2 months π the deadline is june 30th
yep, pretty much π might be #21452526 actually π€
the one in the topic of #general
that devs set for themselves
I see. They should put that here too. Thanks!
Anyone know if the new update will require a new game? Haven't played in a long time and thinking of picking it back up
Pretty sure it's yes.
shouldnt require a new world, but its safer bet for sure π
As long as the southern edge of your world hasn't been explored, it should receive Ashlands update without a problem
also, keep in mind, there is also a #news channel as well, if you're looking for other places for info
Ashland only on southern edge? Has that changed? I haven't played for years but I thought it was random
those two things aren't mutually exclusive
ashlands were always on the souther edge i believe
Ashlands has always been South and Deep North has always been North.
The bro(s) got stomped out because they raided me in the mists...and seekers sought them out
Ayo anyone else see what I saw on the change log for PTB?!?!
If thatβs bait I quit
Would anyone be interested in doing a dual speed run or race? I can host and we can play same amount of hours.
can anyone help me get the code for the server side for Ashlands PTB
for the life of me i can't find it
Information is in the PTB channels.
if it's about the update launching tomorrow then I think it's doubtful
ah ok thanks will go hunting π
@paper marsh why is it doubtful lol
It's not even bait, it's clearly just a typo.
thank you SoftSnail
And here I thought he was talking about fishing bait...π£
tbh I haven't seen it myself but heard talk about it. Doesn't seem like guaranteed evidence, and I feel like it still has some tweaks to go before a release
It ainβt guaranteed but go look bro, someone fucked up hHahaa
https://discordapp.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202174832729661470/1239545596092743821 there you have confirmation it was a typo π
you can for sure believe it π but if it doesent you cant be dissapointed
Yeah love u devs goated game so hyped for the Ashlands
U guys deserve more credit than u get this game lowkey ruined other survival games for me lmfao
You'd probably lose a lot of money.
π¦
I honestly don't understand how a typo in an obscure document has somehow become a guaranteed release date.
My grandma owns iron gate itβs guaranteed buddy
please, lying is not nice π
wait fall damage is capped at 100?!
yep π
Hmm I often see estimations, typos, and unrelated things being taken for guarantees
i can just launch myself off a mountain if i have more than that? :00! this is incredible information
ooor i might be getting trolled by both here and the wiki which would be extremely hilarious.
Audreen wilten look her up
Dvoid is your grandmother? I wonder if he knows.
one way to find out.
wait the whol;e thing was from a typo?
yes
That moment where you start a new world seed with defined landscape and water next to the spawn point and you think, "this would be fun to play without portals and map."
I think i found mine.
Does Yagluth do my fire or physical damage?
both
I meant more of which one
Definitely fire
depends on which attack, one does 65 fire, 65 lightning, another does 40 fire, 20 lightning and last one does 40 blunt and 120 fire
Alright thank you
so if you are going to fight him bring barley wine π
Its funny how Yagluth's power is the best one to to bring to fight him π€£
it is indeed good to bring if you are going for him again π
weird thing happened: I came across a gravesite of mine, containing all my gear. that's normal, except...I already have that gear lol. it's duplicated
did you close the game when you died
sometimes your character death isnt saved so when you login again youll have the gear
not that I'm aware of. this particular death would have happened months ago tho (I took a long break so not much gameplay actually happened since). I don't remember ever intentionally turning the game off on death but not 100% sure. I've had some power outages and such
Dupe inventory happens a lot on servers. It was almost 1 in 20 deaths that resulted in a inventory copy for the short time I wasn't playing solo.
ig the idea is the character save and world save get de-synced
I mean, devcommands would be faster and you wouldn't loose skill levels....but you do you.
now I am imagining a sacrificial "new guy" holding onto endgame loot for his seniors in hopes that on his death it will be doubled.
hey man why are you dying so much?
I'm just trying to help!
OdinsKingdom mod is true garbage
Good for you.
OK.. is ashlands launching tomorrow?
I very much doubt it.
So excited for tmr!
on the changelog on the PTR, it has it listed for 5/14/24..
That says nothing about when the update is being launched. That's a typo in the date of the changelog itself.
all snaping points are broken in it
People REALLY need to stop reading too much into things. When there's an announcement you'll know about it.
anyone wanna play max difficulty settings, no portals, no map, but normal resources?
Put something in #1024264966712340510 , I'm sure you'll find takers.
I'm thinking about it. I just don't want to commit to anything, because I haven't set up my server pc yet. The PSU that was sitting in my closet for 10 years is dead. surprise surprise π€£
would it corrupt my save file if I loaded it in the public beta version?
Thoughts rubber brick up side of family guys head pow!
Nah
Well maybe but nah, make back ups of course
I started a server like that awhile ago and once you post in lfg youβre just going to get a bunch of dms telling you if you lower the settings people will actually play π
Did get a lil group though
lmao why would someone say that
Because the hardest settings are hard
Losing all of your gear on death isnβt something people have time for
yeah, but if you want to play an easier setting then go play somewhere else, don't ask people to cater to you
I made the server and had to give up because life takes up too much of your valheim time at that point
Only a couple people made real progress
It was fun while it lasted β
Snail made those settings look like childβs play tho
When youβve got 1 hour to play after work and itβs just going to be spent getting a fraction of your gear back itβs rough π
Thatβs life of a parent
It would be slow, but not much harder if you can get back to your base every hour
I really wanted to commit to the settings
Slow is the bigger issue when youβre in a group
You donβt need to get back to base that often for sure though itβs just hardcore deleted your inventory on death so knowing youβre in mtn or plains but now youβre naked and have to go get that gear again
Itβs just one of those things like feels monumental without a lot of available play time
And 0.5 resources made getting gear (and foodβ¦) much slower and then max raid rate meaning you get raided constantly while at base
0.5x resources is just masochism imo
hmmm maybe I'll just try mapless and portalless for a while. I'm already lost, and I just went to get some flint for my starter hut.
hardcore combat and death might be a bit harsh when I can't even find my way home after a 3 minute walk
If you were getting flint wouldnβt you have just been following the coast? Canβt you follow it back to your base?
I didn't build on the coast
Would you at least recognise where you reached it and what direction to go from there?
I took a brief look at yggrasil to make sure i knew which cardinal direction I was going, but then I looked at it again on my way back, and I got confused lol
haven't given up looking for it, but it might be a while
Thereβs an unused waystone object that points to the world centre, it would be nice if those could be implemented for no map
I really think the game would benefit from that.
I build a pole and sign if i will forget
I don't have a source of coal
No map is pretty disorienting. Took me a whileeeee to adapt, and then still kept getting lost
oh yeah
I can't believe I have to dodge roll against boars right now. I'm terrified to find out what it's like to fight anything else
Play on what mode?
hardest difficulty combat
Hard isnt bad
Wouldnβt jumping over them and attacking behind be better?
Wow,
haven't tried that
Or even just a jump attack if you can stagger them with secondary
I don't think the wooden club has a secondary
I usually make a stone axe as my first weapon
Flint axe goat
Whats up everyone.
I wouldnβt recommend playing Very Hard combat for the first time with a bunch of other frustrating settings like no map.
Very hard takes some getting used to. Pretty much get one shot by everything and after Black Forest parrying becomes a privilege because enemies do so much damage that the parry often fails (and if it does, youβre left at 10 hp or youβre dead)
Fun mode, did a couple playthroufhs of it, but hard feels more fun to me
Where do I look for a fresh game to join?
after seeing how much boars do, that is what I started to think would happen
Permadeath at that point?
Iβve played actual permadeath (delete server and character on death) on Vhard. It can beβ¦ quite demoralizing at times
I get demoralized playing minecraft hardcore. I can't imagine how bad it would feel to lose weeks of progress in valheim to 1 death
Especially if that death is to something silly like sailing too close to plains while exploring and having a rogue skeeter sneak up on you without you spotting itβ¦
Always having 2 decent health foods active become a must
Now Iβm just playing Hard mode with regular death penalty (still kinda playing like itβs permadeath though, staying alive is a fun challenge)
And then banning some OP things like Atgeirs, bows, earth walls, and added a challenge of not using any resistance meads
Self imposed challenges keep the gameplay fresh for me
where can i find people to play valheim w/ me?
thanks
Yea their secondary attack hits everything 360 degrees around you, staggers it, and knocks it back. Basically you can just keep spamming it and no melee enemy will ever be able to get close to you
okay got the hunted event again and am a lil confused. I ran away and it seems like they haven't followed me? surely it's not so simple
Itβs so simple
The raid stays where it happens. Wolves may follow you if theyβre already aggroed on you, kinda depends on luck and skill at maneuvering
so... tomorrow is the day
Itβs the day I put out the trash idk what else is happening
I just made a blackmetal atgier, and it is like the coolest thing I've ever seen.
Probably not, could be though
We donβt have perms in this server at all I think
Just the mods and what not who like to rub the gifs in our faces when we say aw I donβt have gif
insert epic embed fail gif
Yeah no one except the lords of this particular fief - otherwise they'd get way too much spam heh
That and they don't believe that Tenor is great at filtering NSFW GIFs.
hey guys so i wanted to play valheim but i hate playing solo or by myself im lonely irl so i dont want to be lonely even in games if anyone wanna play with me with mods but must be active player plus i have angry issues ik thats sucks but thats me sadly and thanks dm me if u wanted to play
Make a post in #1024264966712340510 for better results
Also I donβt mean to pick or pry but just because you have anger issues doesnβt mean you need to accept them as part of your identity like βthatβs me, thatβs all there is to it oh wellβ We all work and grow through those feelings
Your dm seems to be blocked as well by the way
My gf has anger issues. They can definitely be a tough thing to live with, and even harder to change. But she's been putting in a lot of work to change them and it's really been helping her!
ik its bad thng thats why i said it here and i hate it thats why i dont have friends
Being honest is good though. Also I'm sure there'd be someone up for playing with you! Maybe you can also message in some of the other posts people have made and ask to join in the channel Germ linked
This seems scary. I hope yβall are good people π
Yeah, that honesty is a double-edged sword. Personally, I feel it's meant entirely in good faith, but I could see how others might perceive it as problematic. Hopefully you find someone though.
I seen a video of people in Japan dragging a thief to the police station π. So hopefully this is all in good faith.
Well, you've taken that perhaps a little TOO far.
I was gonna send a meme but you canβt send pics. Which is prob a good thing π
there is a whole channel for meme content: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202263390056357928...though that doesn't help the fact that the convo is happening here instead.
Well, that's for memes and clips about Valheim which I suspect isn't suitable here.
Fair
given the content of the subject, agreed
Iβm new to this stuff
Hows the PTB going? Any idea when Ashlands will be coming released? Of course take all the needed time, no rush. But also Ashland wen
Coming when its ready, no one knows... wish people would stop asking.
All these other base builder survival games just make me realize I like Valheim more.
Is the patch officcially dropping tomorrow or are we getting an actual release date announcment
lol
That's why I asked how the PTB was going. As in are people still experiencing a lot of bugs or have most of them been worked through. Thank you for taking the time to answer my question with a non answer
It's never been going to drop tomorrow.
oh on ptb it has a 5/14 release thing on the left i guess im trolling
They literally typoed the date of that patch and the world has gone mad.
still bugs, hard to tell how many they devs want fixed before release of Ashlands, some bugs more serious than others etc, testing still in progress (Ashlands seems bigger in terms of changes than Mistlands imho from my view as someone who always plays PTB first day)
think it was 5/14 and the wrong year...
so definitely not true
to quote another user regarding the potential release date(with some humor): #valheim-chat message
Thank you. Sounds like we're still a fair ways off then /sigh. I'd rather it not be rushed tho so I can patiently wait.
https://twitter.com/Valheimgame/status/1789999905215246473 w/e stay tuned means time wise.
I bought valheim yesterday but honestly it doesn't seem too fun
I am just roaming aroun dbreaking trees
worth to keep?
depends on if you like combat, building and survival
if you have played darksouls and minecraft, mash the 2 together.
Dam I enjoy both
I love the building and exploring, finding new spots where biomes intersect in interesting ways, changing my play by trying out a different weapon and such, its my #1 survival game (1700h)
oh, and sprinkel in norse mythos
but I also really want dayz
I also love the sailing in the game
you need to try to progress by crafting equipments to fight the biome's boss
I don;t know how to progress, the bird is gone
day-z...the zombie game, right? you get draugr the norse equivalent once you get to the swamps.
I am huge into 7d2d
can give you some starting progression tips, and you can also ingame access what the bird said and read it again
Day-z is definitely a zebra game.
is there a way to cancel a steam refund request?
get some wood and stone
break bushes by punching them to get some wood and pick up stones scattered around the area, craft a Hammer, gather 10 wood to craft a Workbench, gather more wood to build a small house around the workbench, use the workbench to craft weapons and armor by hunting for materials from deers and boars
craft an axe to fell trees
type into youtube its a 1 minute video: How To Cancel Refund Request on Steam
k i'll give it another shot
pick up flint and stone (you said already have wood), find an abandoned house and make a workbench and a fire, also need to kill boars and deer and get their loot. Also where you started at the spawn stones there is a tablet that you can click to show you location of the fist boss
you can find flints near the shorelines and river banks, look for brick shaped white stones that you can pick up
you can use the flints to craft a better axe, a knife, and a spear
Ashland will release today?
No.
Does anyone knows about this info. cuz I saw a log showed on Xboxβ¦
So it is just a mistake?
Yes.
π« alright thx
Do you take special fire damage in the ashlands water?
how to repair stone axe
for those asking when release will be, it has not been "officially" announced. though it would not be the first time devs of a game have thrown out an easter egg on something like that. best thing to do is wait and see.
?
when you open up a workbench menu, there is a side button for repair
that would be a ashlands chat question: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/831071697817305128
I need a roof
yep. a simple covering around the workbench sides and top should do the trick
When is Ashlands getting released? Does anyone know exactly?
not announced at this time
short answer is no.
Ripperoni.
best we got is "first half of this year"
1024 CE
I've been told by several people it was the 14th.
due to a type-o on a update
just a rumor at this point. there has been no official announcement
how to remove a building block
Less than 2 months π deadline (latest they will come out) Is June 30th
for me, to remove a block its right click on mouse
Way more comfortable than middle click
it still says it needs a roof
if you placed the block with your hammer, use right click on mouse (or equivalent on controller).
agree
I have it fully covered
are you using thatch roof or just plates?
the floor
it can be on the ground. if its being picky, i usually make a 2x2 hut with roof and it works
that or make a "U" shape with wall pieces near a tree and attach the roof to the tree slanting down towards the open end of the "U" place the work bench under the roof piece inside the "u"
that works too
that should give you "sheltered" for the workbench so it can be used. I prefer making a 2x2 house though because its a nice place to start your valheim life.
valheim has a bit of a learing curve but it is soooooo much fun once you got the hang of it.
yay
can I send images?
it likely wont work in this chat
house
you can post in the screenshots channel if you want or send direct to me, i dont mind
how to sleep?
you need to build a bed with the hammer
you will need a small house and a bed
it must be night and bed near a fire
what weapon is best
with a roof
house+bed+fire+night = time to sleep
gotta be sheltered and warm
fire is not letting me put on the ground inside my house
can't go on wood
so i get rid of wood?
the fire will create smoke and will have to be placed on dirt/ground
so for a fire, make sure its vented, it can be outside the wall of the house as long as your bed is placed near it
remove a floorboard and raise ground 1 click to bring it level to the floor is a good trick
I cannot breath
fire is not vented
you need to contain and vent the rising smoke
how to raise the ground?
need a hoe for that can build at the workbench
use the hoe, and it costs a bit of stone
youtube would likely have good tutorials on the basics. it's a bit hard to explain in text like this.
I did it
look up videos on terraforming they will cover just about all of it
whats the best weapon for the first boss
personally i always go bow
How do I get access to the ashlands channel?
he has big gaps you can easily get in and do damage with any weapon, but a finewood bow makes him trivial
id:customize and select "i want to be a public tester"
thank you
then you can join the #valheim-public-test
sleepy
glad you're making progress
I made a flint axe can I scrap anything
flint axe is best axe before you kill first boss
you can chop down regular beech and pines in the forest with that
I just killed Eikthyr (first boss) on my 10th play through 2 days ago with a crude bow I believe upgraded to level 2, ate cooked deer meat and honey and raspberries in my belly
it won't chop down birch though
killing the first boss does open up a lot of things in the game
is 200 wood good enough
no
and how do I get leather
kill boars/deer
deer is fast I cannot catch
make crude bow to shoot deer and wood arrows
use strg to sneak up on it
if you want a better bow you need to ||chop a few pines in the forest (not firs) and get some corewood, which will open up new options, then chop some beech in meadows on a hill so it knocks down a birch tree, then smash the logs together/against stuff to get finewood, and make a real bow||
So is Ashlands releasing tmrw like the rumors say??
stay tuned...
there is a house
update tomorrow confirmed lessgggooo
in some houses there may be a chest that you can loot
No
No
dont expect good stuff in it though, most of them are just basic items
keep an eye out for hanging bee nests
if you don't have a bow you can still obtain them by placing a workbench and deconstructing the house
I always repair a house I find before I build my own somewhere else later, its a great starting spot in the Meadows when you find an abandoned house
or fix the house and claim it for yourself
free mats or a free house
as for this part, if you see a beehive inside the house, pickup the bee for a Queen Bee item, and keep her somewhere safe as you'd need her to craft a Beehive farm
you'd need to kill the first boss first to be able to gather the other materials for it though
you do not, that's wrong, beehive only needs bee and wood
this current play through I found 12 bees before I killed Eikthyr
i only got 3 queenbees and i've killed elder already π
this is my 10th play through, normally I find like 2-5 or so only haha
this is my very first one lol
classic meadows deconstruct run for me, collecting all the bees i can lay hands on on the way
12 is a very good score tho
δ»ε€©ζ΄ζ°ε οΌ
on my way to the Bonemass, after i finish moving my base and transporting all these metal haul
its just from one meadows patch, is a major record for me
no
sweet
swamps probably one of my favourite biomes
谒谒倧佬
English speaking server bro
i have a total of maybe 400+ metal ingots needing to be transported
no problem, no news for the update yet
its extremly tricky and dangerous to carefully place a cart on a karve, but some people do it
i have longship already
thats not too bad then
swamp is the first real difficulty step, and can put players off the rest of the game completely sometimes
having those magic turnips makes all the difference
i dont need to move my iron stockpile tho, just my bronze tin and copper stockpiles, my iron smelting facility is located on a swamp island next to my new base
I always build swamp treehouse in the INDESTRUCTIBLE trees in swamp, near surtling spawners.
gotta get yr cart game on
swamp looks too depressing for me to build a base in π
i dragged out a 2400+ weighted cart in that swamp full of iron scraps
π
plains is the best base location for farmers, if you can stand the stingers and gobbos
tree base there is safe from raids until you kill bonemass as well though, sometimes its even almost sunny in swamp! I love it and you get nice resources there easier than not living there
same rap for yr copper and tin
θ½ηεΎζδΈζοΌηιΌοΌπ
not nice at night tho, wraith busting through yr roof can be very disturbing xD
i studied in china lol, but this is an english speaking server so i'll stick to english
they don't attack base just you, as long as you don't have spots they can fit through you're safe
i usually make wraith hunting balcony
i can simply hop back and forth between the islands for other mats so i wouldn't worry about it i guess
also i got killed by that ghost thing so i'm pretty scared of it lol
and living near surtling spawner gives you coal cores and trophies en masse
i just don't like the general aesthetic of the swamp in any capacity
wraiths are scary for new players, fire arrows is good for them
i already have two of these near my smelting facility, lucky spawn i guess
mountain builds are probably still the tops, even though some Mistlands builds are up there as well now
you can dig the ground near spawner to make it water, they will instantly die any time they spawn (every 5 mins or so)
sadly farming and displaying crops is incredibly limited and limits more builds in those biomes as viable bases are preferable to ghost outposts that don't serve any real function other than a stop-gap to the next place
its just a pain in the ass to travel to new places without carrying supplies to make a forge there to build stuff
alright you are correct and I should go to suggestion channel to ask for being able to grow turnips in swamp π
i already suggested a plant everything everwhere slider, just for builders
i don't think it should be a part of the vanilla progression at all
when I play fast I normally first take over a meadows house, then first proper base is swamp treehouse forge all iron stuff there, also tackle the next biome from there, and after that I build island base for the 5th biome and farming as my bigger base
not sure if stuff should grow in mountains etc haha, but i did have a snow covered plains farm at some stage at an intersection, was real pretty
at some point it doesn't matter anymore, but ig we're just not there yet until the game is done/close to
it shouldn't be an option that new players want to look at until they've completed the devs vanilla vision version, but older players would gladly enjoy the decoration options
maybe if you turn off portal restrictions you turn off some planting restrictions I dunno
nope, itβs just a mistake on Xbox update logβ¦
Has anyone studied if there are any patterns to the direction in which trees fall when they are cut down?
I'm considering whether 'Domino Tree Cutting Method' can be applied.
when building a house or whatever is there a weight limit to what the foundation is?
for example if i put a single wooden foundation with legs on the ground, how high/heavy can the topside be?
i mean, somewhat, they tend to fall towards the direction you face so if you stand at the top of a hill full of trees and chop one or two domino effect does happen
or do i need sturdier supports from the ground up since i unlocked stonecutter already
yes, if you want to build higher
Yes, furthermore I can create this effect by altering the terrain.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF_J_DBs4vg explains it very well
I was just thinking of sending him this video too. lol
great minds think alike π
i play this game for fun, didn't expect structural engineering in it πΏ
The physics engine simulation in this game is really impressive, especially the setting where cutting trees can crush the player. It's so much fun.
when it works it's fantastic
and the most challenging build system to make nice things with, but really rewarding once you learn the parameters
my current house in my old base is just a 4x20 straight house with no decorations whatsoever save for a kitchen (which is just a hole in the roof for the smoke vent)
the outside is littered with smelters which i barely put some thought as how the layout goes πΏ
the only friends i have in that house are a bunch of wooden chests
Yea love the reality of it
today is the big day? or tomorrow?
What big day do you mean?
the release outside test server?!\
If that Is the reference to the suposed "leaked date" then i have bad news for you because it was typo, devs confirmed that, just people making assumptions on no real basis started spreading that ashlands will be out today
oh....got it
But why would they do a date on the news in the first place, if it's not going live soon 
Seems sus

That was always a date when the latest patch came out...
Still sus imo
is it today that the new patch launches?
No, first half of 2024 still stands.
I know it's not dropping today, but Just so you know, first half could still be today π€£
damn, have seen 14 may somewhere, was sure it was today
why is it that first half of 2024 always meens 30 June?
11:59 pm to be precise π

Actually 23:59
same thing though
I think not having an official release date gives the developers time to work well, without stress to ensure we have the best update ever. Go guys 
also, kinda not allowed to have dates for updates as an early access game
Because if you start looking at the half of 365 and then start adding the number of days a month have, the 30th of June and the 1st of July are the halfway points.
If you wonder why that's the current answer most people give, it's because the only official confirmation we got about Ashlands dropping is "first half of 2024".
Which means any day between now and 30th of June 23:59:59.
Well I'd assume it's by choice, even if it is an early access game. I wouldn't necessarily think it's disallowed or anything.
i read the wiki saying that the devs are planning to expand the ocean biome, so what do you guys have as ideas that can be implemented in the ocean?
More ships, harpies, siren type enemy, maybe some undead ships
undead ships would be unreal having sea battles
maybe treat the undead ship like a biome boss
So does resin have some use Iβm not aware of?
I have a iron chest full of it and Iβm not sure what to do with all of it
Fire arrows
Fuel
And uh.... idk what else
Ingredient for Ooze bomb and bile bomb
Knew i forgot something
Imagine Sailing out in the sea, and then getting close to a ship, and then boarding the ship to fight for the loot that's on the ship

yea it sounds so risky but fun
Yeah, they could do very many cool thing in the ocean biome
They didn't.
But first, we need to get excited for what's to come in Ashland's, and then the Deep north 
Morgen gjall!
Honks
https://twitter.com/NadoFromTodo/status/1790187366621336022/photo/1 Twitter admin feels extra cheeky today 
Not cheeky.
Just feeding false expectations.
I mean that does feel cheeky.
Still pretty funny
They said they plan to do something but it wonβt be an official biom (as in with a boss ect.)
Yeah
What was with last nights Facebook post on the offical page?
valheim has a facebook?
Yea
I donβt have twitter, but yea they would of just posted the same
Whatβs that?
huh whats it say i dont have steam
Like, you can't tell me it not close, when you start to see all this stuff
4 minutes ago
I so hope it drops soon, it would be so funny
they are teasing usπ
π€£
Whatβs that all mean in the steamdb
i have no idea what it means
Which might as well mean there's going to be a new PTB version to test if all bugs are squashed now.
True
But that also just means we are getting so much closer to playing this amazing new Update 
You guys play PTB?
Nar I didnβt
No, i'm waiting
i played the PTB with all my friends after a long time of convincing
I want to start a fresh one with my mates so we all see it together
we are making a new world and starting fresh on official release
Good idea. I dont want to join ptb. I prefer getting the polished experience. I do appreciate those playing.
i couldnt wait any longerπ
Yeah it can be painful to wait π
We r doing no map and no portal
sounds absolutely brutal
Yeah that wouldnt be for me
X2 loot to help balance the grind
Is that an option?
Try play with the kraken mod. I saw a video of that. Gave me massive anxiety
on console it is unsure about pc
Maybe didnβt notice it
im glad they let console players try the PTB aswell
im js that steam db stuff confirms it kindaa
Confirms what?
0,o
Iβm not all tech like that so I wouldnβt know
Nothing it might be minor patch
As I said before:
it hasnt been updated in a week until yesterday
Im not a boy. Im a MAN 
You're excluded from being one of the boys then
π€£
@devs you guys are the best and have ruined other survival games for me with how amazing this game is
its hard to play something that isnt valheim
from sealed tower is there a way to get out through the bottom or do I have to climb out the window again?
Its an honour to be joined by men. Salute, jack!
gotta climb back out
YOu will have to climb back up to your entry point again.
well that sucks. thanks
Consider it as a good exercise before entering the Mistlands. π
Feather cape and it's fun to do
already entered, hate it lol
can't find dungeons tho. found like 10 goblin settlements, no dungeons
Use map generator
Without it Mistlands would be pain in the ass for me and my friend
dont recommend but yea u can use the seed finder
Plains don't have dungeons.
Mistland doesn't have goblins or fullings
idk what that is but I'll look into it, thanks!
Mistlands does have Dverger and their spots are quite easy to find.
Just look for the blue lights.
Invested mines are easy to find as well, as they've got one blue light, next to a staircase.
Except, when you play the PTB, those area's are off as the update has changed the PoI's location.
And I know that from personal experience.
yeah i had that problem
Some mines don't have a light, as there are two different types kinda. Check out all the dvergr houses, some don't have dvergr anymore but a mine instead.
Yes, I struggled a lot with that myself at first. Until I learned to use my ears more and read the other signs.
Mines usually have some seekers outside, if you encounter 3+ seekers somewhere have a good look around, there might be a mine.
If a bunch of ticks suddenly turns up, there'll be bones nearby, probably with a skull.
ticks are the embodiment of evil in valheim
Like if i equipe armor it shouldn't use a slot anymore
yeah I only have one row empty for loot lol. rest is gear
I didnt find them too bad
You are aware that if that dead horse get beaten up even more, there's nothing but dust left?
the health drain is unreal if you have ever seen a 2 star
Just roll shoot or use a longer 2hand carry multiple weapons
Until you start carrying a demolisher, one bonk at your feet and they fall off and might be dead already. Or dodge and then keep blocking.
Block it with any shield and they won't even be able to drain health from you.
Sorry what? That read as word salad to me please rephrase
would be cool if there was armour slots i know what you mean
Yea like im not holding it in my bag so why does it take a slot
Its literally on me its why weight is important
It still weighs the same just free the damn slots! I feel like by the time i Carry all my stuff as a solo player I only have 1-5 slots left
yea weight doesnt bother me nearly as much as inventory space especially when i wanna be flexible with different weapons
Well the trader dude has a weight upgrade anyways
@crude current Salut! Had to drive home π
Which it wasnt an issue already so i was having slot issues even in the bronze age
"Beating a dead horse" = going over a subject that's been talked about so often, it's getting boring.
"Beating something until there's dust left" = as it says.
If you beat rocks long enough, all you end up with is very fine dust.
In other words, this subject has been discussed so often, it's not relevant anymore and will add nothing to the game at all.
its an honest life saver
Noted thank you i appreciate this
Im not familiar with slang
Bigger inventory is easily one of the most requested features, but apparently that got a hard no from the devs.
It's why I need at least one mod to play this game, too annoying for me with the vanilla inventory size.
You good bro! π«‘
See its just a solo play issue for me because if i had teammates they could carry some of the other stuff
The inventory can be annoying, but i appreciate some restrictions
I wouldn't need to carry all the staffs and boss loot and food and potions and whatever else
Believe me your team mates will have full bags themselves π
Same when people suggest metals through portals
its literally an option in the game settings so i dont see why people ask
Yea but less because I wouldn't have the need to carry 7 weapons because each one could carry their own and swap out accordingly
@broken heron Oh? Has that always been there?
Are The ashlands out yet?
Because they don't check all the options before starting a game, then run into a problem and expect a fix for that.
unsure for how long but yes i used it on one of my playthroughs
Nope and no one knows when.
@dense pike Not yet π
LMAO
Ashlands have always been out since the game got into EA.
But if you mean the reworked biome, that's out in PTB for now.
Ok
See for me it ruins the quality of life why sail if i just teleport everything
sailing is so fun too
It makes it so sailing has a purpose i have a reason to build half dozen longships
Game would be boring if there was no restrictions
Lies, lies and deceit!
except for the 4/4 times when i just dont have wind
Exactly ive already spent a long time just dicking around base building its super fun i like feeling like im not some cheese lord
This gotta Be one of The best games I have ever played, along with Pokemon Black, Minecraft and no mans sky
must just be me man its peaceful, serpents are a side benefit too
I really enjoy helping my dad on his world lol its just a vibish game
@dense pike Valheim is a great game!
valheim and deep rock galactic are my favourite games atm
You can't be the lord of cheese, I want my cheese!
I stupid Ass cant build anything good so I had to Ask My friend to help me
To each their own, I sail when I have to but I don't enjoy it.
My*
Sea serpents needs to be twice as big.
I built a 4 story tower with moat layers each having stone walls and a designed purpose
it can definitely be tedious with how present it is in every biome
3 layer's
always gotta move ore
I treat it like mediation
Listen to music sail just chilling occasionally i beach myself!
meadows theme song x sailing
Electro swing
To me, sailing isnt thrilling. Unless its storming. But it adds gameplay variation, and breaks the loop.
I would love to see Lego valheim
For me it adds the loop go there go back sail build run out of iron go back
Just as much as Lego one piece
Last time i was sailing with my brother in the storm, i was sitting in the carve, and the heavy waves just threw me off the ship π
Also i have a goofy question
That's when you hold on to the mast for dear life π
Are the Ashlands and great north actually out? I was thinking of going there if they are there but if not i dont really have a reason other than to fill my map to go there
Yeah, i learned that the hard way π
I like to grab the little dragon on the front of a boat
Ashlands is in ptb right now. It still has issues, but is definitely playable
The biome's have always been there.
Ashlands is currently in PTB, we don't know when Deep North will enter PTB.
Forgot what its called but the just dangle there
Public testing beta?
both biomes are there but there is no content so they just kinda sit until the update comes out which hasnt just yet for ashlands. deep north wont be for a while
Idk sorry π
Public Test Branch.
But more or less a Beta-test, yes.
Ok gotcha
Thank you understood then i wont worry about it
ashlands will be before june 30th guaranteed
Oh right on time for my birthday give a little
The advantage of the PTB is that it's a public beta test, meaning that everyone who wants to play it, can play it.
Just as long as they won't spoil the fun for those who don't want to play it by discussing it in public channels
Ashlands better be here tomorrow. Or im gonna storm the castle
Aye aye
i myself played the PTB but i recommend waiting until full release for the smooth experience
How different will the PTB be from the full release?
Be careful what you wish for - I rather see them fix the current issues first π¬
Is this only some of the content?
nope its all of it
So i want everyones opinion. Is frostner viable? And if so how does it stack against mistwalker i know its less damage on paper but doesnt it slow more?
@silk rivet A few bugs never hurt anyone. Ask bethesda
Or should i just use skeletons with Shields with mistwalker and call it a day
Donβt go there until they get updated. If you go there and explore it all now, it wonβt update. Only unexplored terrain updates so if you do explore it now youβll either need mods or youβll need to make a new world to experience the new content when it comes out
redfall, fallout 76π₯²
If you wanna play it rn why not play PTB?
LMAO π€£
Thank i will note this
I found the BM sword being more suitable in the Mistlands as Frostner was.
Haven't tried Mistwalker yet, so can't compare that one.
I was JOKING
You don't just joke about people releasing broken games in this day and age
I for one hope you get to storm that castle.
Also @west pulsar mistwalker is more damage than frostner and I'm pretty sure that all sources of frost slow the same
well I did try to use a seed finder to find an infested mine and I STILL can't find any lol. I must be doing something wrong. all I can see are dverg town entrances.
@opal prairie Thanks π«‘
Frostner is really good, especially if you know how to use it's special attack (aka right after a parry).
I prefer the mistwalker once I get it though, as it has a nice area of attack, does more damage and will act as light in the mistlands in a pinch, if you forget your wisp (which I do all the time)
I was using porki mace there until i got the magic sticks and mistwalker i just use my level 50 blood magic summon skeletons to shield them and when they pop use fire or ice and if i gotta get close then i use a buckler and mistwalker
Frostner is 3/4 the stamina use per swing though so you technically get 25% more swings with a full stamina bar
Oh? Ok thats actually noted
Damnit I found onions in the mountains then proceeded to die to a wolf
Unfortunate
As long as you got the seeds in your inventory after getting your corpse back, you're good.
The worst part is I didnβt have backup frost resistance so now I gotta start the whole process of preparing for mountain again
Also why is the elders ability so laughably dogshit? I can at least argue a use for the others but i can't justify the elder
In what universe did they go "yea thats usable"
elder ability should grant either some resistance or some kind of farming ability with the tree chopping
Just wait until you do large construction projects while needing coal at the same time.
At that point the power is useful.
Like greenhand ability that boosts crop yields and growth speed
It's ok early on if you got a tree farm going and want to build a big base.
Yea but i barely feel the difference
does anyone know what the infested mines are marked as on the world generator tool? because I can't find any.
make elder give damage buff for axes for pve
I was thinking like you regen hp faster
Then bonemass would be basically what it is
Eh but thatβs just healing potions right
You also can't upgrade mistwalker to level 4 yet so if you've maxed out both weapons and attacking enemies that are resistant to blunt/slash then you'd be doing
75.5 combined damage per swing with frostner and
89.5 damage per swing with mistwalker
Which I'm pretty sure means that if you swing through to empty on frostner and mistwalker you do more damage on frostner
As far as Iβm aware nothing boosts farming and itβs the most tedious part of the game imo
Yea but it can heal a group on a cooldown and doesnt use a slot
Get the plant easily mod
Granted it isn't great. Giving it something extra wouldn't hurt, else til bonemass there is no reason to not use eikthyr all the time.
I disagree eikthyr is very good
Honestly the basic functionality of it of snap to nearest growable location should be in the base game
bonemass is so painfully good its hard to bring something else
So itβs heal everyone around you and yourself?
That would be too OP in large groups
Yea it's a boss power
Yeah it is, that's basically what I said there? π€
Eikthyr power is quite useful when fighting Bonemass and Yahluth.
also being able to cycle abilities with friends is a little broken
But I mean as in you could infinitely cycle the power of healing with large groups of players
Ok then how about increase the hp max
Powers ranked by when I would take them
Eikthyr: Every time that I'm not on a boat or fighting a boss
Bonemass: When I'm fighting a boss
Moder: When I'm going on a very long boat trip
The rest of them: I would not take these powers
Moder i like It saves time and dicking around
There are times when I rather kill stuff faster than needing an extra swing. I'm still using and loving mistwalker in the Ashlands ptb.
Its an odd pick but it has a use
Yeah that could work Ig
Like im thinking like a free food slot basically
Yagluth power is very nice when going to fight Yagluth again.
And I'm quite certain there will be a use for it in other occasions as well.
I mean, ever been fighting a Dverger mage?
consider queen
Increase hp cap by 60 for 5 minutes
yeah but the damage difference per swing between a level 4 frostner and a level 3 mistwalker on enemies with blunt/slash resistance which is all enemies in mistlands is like 14 which gets cut in half by weapon skills meaning you don't get the weapons base damage
Haven't done it yet I've been base building and maxing out my gear
okay i see
Im kinda chicken so i max out all my gear before a boss
Also yagluth power is pretty much replicable by wearing a cape and drinking barley wine so not much point taking that
its a rule of thumb for vaheim tbh
I WISH it was poison
I prioritise maxing weapons then armor if Iβm struggling
But I feel like armor is so expensive and since itβs gonna be replaced so quick anyway then why bother
Queen is good if you want to use magic and I only ever use magic for hunting those STUPID MISTHARE STOP JUMPING AROUND YOU DAMN RABBITS JUST RUN IN A STRAIGHT LINE SO I CAN KILL YOU
Yea but i did bonemass with leather so then i learned im supposed to use a forge im SLOW
I've tried both weapons in mistlands but stuck with mistwalker, just feels better to me. Both are viable.
πππ
it's objectively faster to kill things with mistwalker but not really by much
mistwalker also looks awesome
Is there more satisfying combat then perfectly parrying a archer enemy
If you got the base damage of the weapon on 0 weapon skill and it was boosted as a percentage by weapon skills then there would be a bigger difference
There's a reason im special needs! Lol no but seriously after that i just decided i wanted to max my gear and make a base that odin himself couldn't tear down
Yup.
Doing that the moment a Tick jumps at you and seeing it splat right in front of you.
does anyone know what the infested mines are marked as on the world generator tool? because I can't find any.
I dont use one sorry a general tip to find them in my experience is that they're rarely in the center of spawns they're usually around the edges of water
They're marked as "tomb / crypt / inf. mine" at that site.
Showing as a symbol of a tomb.
did anyone else think the portal icon on the map that you can place was initially a dungeon icon
I found the actual line of text to check but I can't find them on the map lol. all I can find is dvergs town entrances
they're usually pretty evenly distributed they're just next to impossible to find in the middle because you can only see 3cm in front of you (one and 9/50ths of an inch)
The ballista is insanely good
Those are the infested mines
Those things SHRED Monsters when you have 10 per wall
Ah i have a bright monitor so its a none issue maybe bad for immersion but
i use ballistas to protect quick portals
If they just weren't too slow.
I've seen two of my balista's shoot at a swiming Greydwarf Brute and missing it unil it litteraly got right in front of it.
no it's just that on the coasts there's more likely to be thin mist
I use them on trolls then use bear traps on the small stuff
Thereβs bear traps in the game?
Trolls and other bigger stuff skeletons too
I've got an island base, so not much to worry about in the first place. π
Yes it's in the later part of the game sorry to say too much
I donβt mind spoilers
I been watching the game since launch and only just got the chance to properly play it
You will get the bear traps at the same time as the Balista.
Mines on the edge of the water with ive built 3 moats on elevated ground
Teleporting door with a chest stair one side to bring iron and bronze in
Ah then yes and they're powerful
Man I died in mountain and now Iβm dying in swamp with the gear I made to get back to mountain π€¦ββοΈ
I need those onion seeds fr
This is why i hate being solo i bring potions and potions bonemass all kinds of weapons
Dying is too much time
One thing I like about terraria
The Skeles ROCK tho
Give 4 of them a 450 hp shield and they do work
Stand there and cross bow the dudes or fireball
The fact it's called "corpse run" doesn't mean you need to run like a madman to get there.
Taking the slow and careful approach will work out better for your health in the long run.
Also, make sure you've been eating and rested before even starting to recover stuff.
The tombstone won't go anywhere and both buffs will certainly help.
If you can get Eikthyr power it'll even be better.
Could someone do me a favor and give me vague directions for a Yagluth vegvisir ? Seed is WvH2LG6tHE
Dont want to look up the map myself because it kinda ruins everything else then..
Its been days now roaming plains biomes and its getting boring
skill drainπ₯²
Look for small stone structures they will have a small stone tablet that locates him
Took me a bit but i ran around poking my head in for those
Hes hard to find and so is the moder its annoying
Yeah ik I've found them on different playthroughs but right now I've been to 15+ plains biomes and found about 5 stonehenges but none of them had a vegvisir
UGH its why i hate dying
That sucks im sorry
its very frustrating
Where did you find Moder?
And / or The Elder?
Hey guys, this is a question born of trust issues from Path of Exile... https://valheim.fandom.com/ is accurate and can be trusted right? Just want to make sure π
For me i just treat the game as a no death run Because dying sucks the fattest dick
Luckily on the first mountain on the spawn island lmao
To your North-West?
Yes sir
Yes.
And it's the only wiki so you don't have any choice anyway
Awesome, ty!
Go north from there, need a boat, then when seeing new mountains, keep the Eastern side of it.
You should run into a Vegvisir at some point.
If you don't, keep heading north
Much love, thank you
Typical i bring a...idk what they're called basically spears just in case an axe a mace a bow a Shield 2 different healing potions maybe poison of frost if im fighting elemental damage
Then I have no slots and carts suck boats for the win
YW.
Good luck killing the bugger.
You're going to need all of it. π
Im searching for 10 hrs + now and it got kinda boring so I thought this would be a good idea π
BTW, last question, are you playing the PTB?
OK.
PTB messes up some PoI's occasionally, but if you're not in it, the map at the site is accurate enough to give you that location.
I have a question i dont care for spoilers what should i do to prepare for the queen
back to square 1 about damn inventory space
major healing lingering stamina
got that already im curious about elemental damage
Slaughter about 10 goats and a dozen of sheep....
Any op attacks to watch out for?
Perfect, thanks for the favor and much love. β₯
Feels like a whole different motivation again, having the wind back in my sails so to speak
