Maybe trees are evil... they walk around when you don't watch and even eat birds?! How else would they drop feathers! Inconceivable
because of the birds nests in the branches??? I mean that would be the simple explanation? π
no, that would be too simple... they're clearly plotting something
first they learn to walk and now they grow feathers and fly?
the new players early demise they are plotting for sure... more then one fell on my head while woodcutting π
How else did the world tree get up there?
I've seen one of those assholes do a 90 degree sideways swing just to hit my beehive out of spite... that was bizzarre to watch. I'm not even joking, just before it hit the ground it suddenly started moving sideways
Something must have been near the trunk to cause that but still looked crazy
its fun trying to get some big chain reactions with the trees
oh for sure, works great with tightly planted tree farm
it is... i did it just today...planted beeches and then started cutting them down from uphill saves a lot of hewing if they just cascade π
the upper floor and roof of my new Base near the Mist (on the plains side mind you) needs quite some wood π
I just have 4 carts for hauling them to kilns, and they tend to speed up the cutting process a lot. I do 1 overhead swing to cut it, it falls on another tree, cut it again to cut the trunk and split the tree, it cuts down the tree it fell on. If it doesn't cause chain reaction, cut another leaning tree and trunk
pop Elder and whack away
just make sure you ate...because a tree on your head at 25hp works as a suicide method just as well as falling from your roof at 25hp π
doesn't make that big of a difference when you've got jotun bane. 1 overhead is enough to cut down a beech.
thankfully we get something to help with the second one later in game
saves some time and stamina since would only need 1 normal swing instead... but 5 minutes of that isn't going to help me a lot
w/r
forgetful player that i am i forget that there is an elder power as soon as i hang the head π ... i even forget to uses bonemass and go into melee with bugs π¦ a wonder i do not die all the time π
does it hit trees faster? kinda expected it to have the good old scuffed slow cutting animation
i rarely used bonemass until Mistlands, and then i did π
I personally use the bloodstone on slower weapons like the slayer
Just did the queen fight and I forgot to use the bonemass till the very last few minutes π somehow didnβt die
blood shield is kinda cheating vs. queen. I didn't take a single point of damage to my health from enemies. only from me casting the shield
I forgot about it... and when I am done jumping around and dodging and killing all the bugs then i think: well that would have been easier if you activated bonemass for a change... and then the next batch of bugs get's killed without bonemass again because i forgot π
HP determines block ability not stamina unfortunately and the blood weapons go of % not max HP
So if you had 100HP it wouldn't really make a difference to the dmg vs 325
Yo, I'm looking for someone to play with on my valheim world, I'm decently new to the game with only 15ish hours, I just beat the elder and would like to be able to adventure with someone please hmu
I did take some damage in the queen fight ...had to leave the citadel with 34 hp left to take a mead in peace but that was the only mead i needed that shield is just such aa livesaver for me
you can make a post in #1024264966712340510 , people usually look there if they want to play with someone π
bubble is godly, no doubt
Ty
Also queen is very nice to you and yeet you far away when she breaks your shield, gives you time to apply it again
my thought process is the other two gems are a 20% chance to proc so they are better on faster weapons that can do multiple hits to get the proc. Meanwhile the bloodstone is guaranteed extra dmg to that big weapon so long as you have taken dmg
has anyone tried properly if parrying reduces the damage shield takes?
unless you land right next to the 2 seekers she summoned 1 min before π that was what made me make an exit in haste... 34 hp and no bubble and 2 seekers in my face... i get out of there fast
quick breather defo in order for that
I'm currently using lightening on berserker and its SO good
The problem with blood weapons is the dmg output is not worth it
i was really scared to fight the Queen but putting eitr on the ground for her to walk on green pearls does help reduce the insane amount of hp she has π and sending fire the broods way goes a long way to survive π
Youre talking to a newly converted berzerker main. I have 2 sets of zerker axes. One with nature that I use to freeze big enemies in place and then the lightning ones for extra dmg and AOE. with the reduced stam cost on askvin armor it is so good.
At some point I just stopped focusing on culling their numbers and only fire a ball at them when queen isn't available to be blasted
one of the perks of magic, no stamina for attacking so you can use it to round around
I might try blood weapons again but the penality for death is too high and I have very high skills and don't feel like dying on a whim to test blood magic on weapons with no HP xD
I could try it on low biomes I guess to check dmg output
I use 1 eitr 1 health and 1 stamina food...gives me enough to have a bubble and fire 2 shots of fire then dodge and wait for eitr regen
so i have enough hp not to get oneshot by some seeker π
Sometimes I use 2 Eitr and 105 HP with Flametal armor full battle mage seems to work pretty well for most magic and sword and shield while Eitr is regen'ing
what i can not shot dead with fire i will hit on the head with some other weapon got pretty good at switching weapons π
a good lightning extra long poking stick makes for good backup
i do agree with that... as long as you do not forget to take a step back away from the long attack they make... you are to close to avoid that damage even with the loooong pointy electric teaser
i like the atgeir best to get rid of them damn ticks fast as i can they trigger me ... hate them so much
It's really nice when you can just poke them mid jump relatively safely
one round swing does the trick usually π then back to my spear π
i mean a spear is also a long p ointy stick and you can even throw it AND can use a shield with it...what is not to love about a spear π
The lack of stacking them, being able to effectively wield multiple of them. I think it would be fair.
Ive been running berzerker askvin mostly but I recently made the new mage set and fully upgraded a staff of the wild for my next boss attempt. He just does too much aoe to fight in melee range solo
Honestly I find Queen harder to melee than Fader. Due to Queen's absurd knockback.
I took trolslav and staff of the wild into fuling camps and watch them go crazy.
Most fun thing ever
i never tried it ... one stick does work fine for me π the only thing you need to consider is - get on the same height with your opponent which is easy enough to do mostly and if it is not possible a nice fat club/maze will do the trick with an upwards swing too π
would be nice to be able to follow up on that spear from from distance, or yeet a spear at 1 while continuing poking that other one
or just knive them mobs down... knives are fab... very underrated weapons i am a knife and spear person love them
Was about to pickup knife for my 2nd chara, but then found out that there's no knife or Atgeir in ashlands update...
I am very curious about the ashlands spear option (i know nothing about ashlands have been avoiding spoilers best i could - i just read names here and there and that is that
I badly wanted to keep rolling with knives, but they just don't keep up on damage. I switched to thunder axes, which are definitely not a true knife replacement. But they're very good.
All spears are the same but you are aware of the new variations right?
I am not aware of any new variations... i have not been to the ashlands yet... i want to discover by my lonesome self...that is why i was avoiding all spoilers best i could
have you been to mistlands?
what biomes do you usually do major builds in?
Yeah... i have defeated the Queen today, after maxing out ALL Gear i want (except the Krom - not liking 2 handed and the jotun bane - which i made before with another character and found underwhelming) ...so i am all set with supplies to spare ...
Meadows and Plains personally
Hmm ashlands' dvergers are suicidal
i have a meadows base right now and im thinking plains after
but then i had to go danceing first and not time to go take the shiny new ship to sea
forest and plains
imo, mistland has better unique weapons but I'm still testing all of the Ashlands stuff
Imagine taking one rhe thunder mace to swamp
Just one-shot anything that isn't abom or wraith
Like, the amount of damage is just overkill
Γ€h ..i think with mistland gear maxed out you are already there to oneshot what crops up there β
I want to secondary a deathsquito with it
My axe skill is 50 and it already feels better than my 100 sword skill.
Berserker is definitely a game changer for Ashlands
Squimsh
Mistwalker is very very viable in Ashlands
I feel spirit damage should be instant damage instead of damage over time.
i think i never reached a 100 sword skill in all the 1800+ Hours i played π the first sword i ever build is a Mistwalker for the funsies ...it gets rarely used ... sometimes i make a point to use it just so I have at least a little skill on swords π
I used mistwalker and frostner all the time in Mistlands. I almost abandoned Frostner in plains because it knocked Fulings way too far for me to get a good whack at them... and they didn't take spirit damage.
As a group we usually build in the black forest or plains but in my solo server I built my main base right on a plains/mistlands border so I could farm puffs, barley and sap all inside my base
But Frostner was my best friend against seeker soldiers.
lol I used frostner just for that purpose... if they are far away from me I can control better when to whack them and when to walk away a bit π
same with the bugs..the slowing effect is for a person with low armor a godsent
I have a question. Will plants wither under an iron grid roof?
I am almost sure they will ... it will say "needs an open sky"
Stinky
for fun I went into a Seeker mine with Ashland gear and absolutely slaughtered all the bugs with easy with my axes π
Plants in greenhouses don't need no open sky.
I used to be able to grow puffs under an iron grid but after the ashlands update that is no longer the case. Had to take out a whole section for one of my mushroom patches
That makes me sad.
Which crops can be planted in ashlands?
None, not even the stuff from the ashlands
what
So you pick up something and it's sorry, you can't do that here
Definitely getting the plant all mod >>
hm... i see i am much more of a "slapdash" gamer then... i never bother to take out all the bronze there is below...just take what is visible, never build anything special to tame boars (in fact i do not tame boar and wolf at all) i just build a stakewallaround a field and call it good π
Pretty much. But the vines you harvest will grow in most other biomes but in ashlands it says its too hot
.
So ashvines grow in ashlands when you harvest them... but when you try to plant them again...
How were they growing to begin with then?!
That's actually wild. You can't grow them on fortresses
well you can not grow anything but fir trees in the mountains either...so no bother... π i have a plainsbase near the mist for farming π
forest is so annoying though
trolls and greydwarves every 2 seconds
i build my first meadows base near the forest if i can
best possible location for me is that ring of 5 large stones, near the ocean and the black forest
lol... i always build my prettiest base in the Forest π meadows is plain boring ... like forest better
then if i find a good blueberry/thistle spawning area ill put down one forest outpost location from there
so far ive just done one outpost in each biome near a good spot for their specific resources
in the forest ive got one in an abandoned tower, same in the swamps and on a big mountain area
but safe π
no outposts either for slapdash-gamer-me
i tried making the forest tower look "reclaimed" but i didnt bother with the rest
i.e. i shored up defenses, actually put a roof on it, made staircases and all that
then i realized i never stay there and just portal in, loot, and return to my real base
there isn't much of a good spot for them, best you can find is maybe 8 blueberry bushes in 1 cluster... berries are very spread out and would rather recommend marking all of them in the map and their number, then deciding on a good path between worthy clusters .
Nowhere is safe
so thats what i did for the next 3 biomes lol, but plains ill make my real base
Once invasions start
actually large area for farming, way more storage, legit walled defenses with earthworks instead of the wood walls and spikes i have for meadows base
right now everything is stuffed into my wall in the meadows base and its really starting to get cramped
plains is great biome for main HQ
yeah thats what ive picked up from asking around, seems to be the consensus
actually worth doing stuff like digging a moat, raisingg the earth so things cant just blast your walls down and ruin your base
Earth walls
they can with my meadows base, luckily ive been able to kill them before they got past the spike ring
it has it all. looks great, relatively flat, can farm every plant up until that point... nice music too
Needed
once the troll invasion happened thats when i knew meadows with a palisades wall and spikes aint gonna cut it anymore
Wait till you get the message "they were bros"
I never had any thing ruining my base so much that it would bother me... sure like 3 roof tiles fell of when the troll hit them but hey... normally if there is a raid (hardly get those not at home most of the time) i will go outside and give them a whack anyway for disturbing me while building or cooking π
earth walls are not needed if you find a good island or in general good spot for spawn proofing
Good morning gjall
But if you do that you wonβt get the free items
I want a tame gjall
I'd rather have good looking space with less time spent making it safe...
Have it shed tame bugs too
π
I have not made an earth wall in ages... trolls stop at a 4m high stone wall and i can shoot them before the wall goes down or go out and spear them whilee dogerolling... i even did not have much trouble with bugs in the plains because of 20 Lox watch dogs π never bother to do more than a stonewall that will stop stuff from walking amongst my buildings π
That won't happen, things come to ruin your day
Tame lox help
I feel like I got trolled earlier
Ballista set to target all
Targets me
also my preference for protection would be mix of moat and wall. Raise my side of the moat and lower the other side of the moat, so it looks more like an embankment
the only animals i will tame and breed are lox... and have a heard of 20 or 30 will suffice to protect your base...had a "hunted" event and just ran around putting bubbles on the babies and let the lox do the fighting... lost not one lox and no baby and picked up 46 wolf meat afterwards π
jupp 2 lox kill a seeker soldier
Ashlands stuff might cause them problems
best bet if you are weak and get overwhelmed... go to the nearest lox and let them deal with it π
jupp... sends them flying back too--- give you some breathing space π
I love my demolisher
Biggest threat to me is still deathsquito
Demolisher
Seen a deathsquito kill a gjall
if you attack them just a split second earlier they die before they reach you... if you not quick enough ... use a shield to block and then kill ...
whats the best armour to wear for mistlands
I have padded armor and food for 200+ hp
depends on your play style... there is no best armor for everyone i think
But a few squitos cause issues
i will go in fenris and 2 healthfood and one stamina
Armor is mitigation, but not by much
spead above armor
You can't tank things
You better know how to parry and parry well
if you can't tank damage, you need to learn to avoid being hit
I always take my carapace buckler with me
Damage can't be tanked period
I use fenris and knives without parrying. Walk dodging or short sprint dodging is better. Your armor stat is moot if the enemy misses altogether.
You can parry
i got real good ad dodging and my jump is at 100 now π if seeker soldierr hits ground ... jump ... you take no damage if you are not on the ground π
do u have to beat the queen before u go to the ashlands?
Hati and skoll are so much damn fun
But straight up tanking goes badly post forest
Not really
It's easier with a ship that doesn't burn
Not impossible
I found a Queen vegvisir in the bottom center of the map, and it pointed me to the left edge of the map. I said screw that and went straight to ashlands.
well... my friend with whom i was playing found that out too (tanking goes bad past forest)... he had the best armor and the biggest shield and died non the less... me in my troll armor had to kill al the stsuff so he could get his proud armor back π
Yeah I don't see the point of a tower shield
I wish I could take hati and skoll with me to Ashlands but ofc nearly everything resists pierce because devs hate the fact arbalest/bow/atgeir is so good.
You just get rekt
Steal aggro, take damage for buddies
Tower shields don't do much because of the diminishing returns of the armor stat.
Tower shields are the least stamina-using method of reducing/avoiding damage aside from just walking, which often doesnβt work
Arbalest isn't good in ashlands?
If you backstab, probably it will deal decent damage but I wouldn't use it as a main weapon
well... that was what he was trying to do... be a chevalier and save a damsel in distress (me) LOL in the end he payed the fee and i had to kill all them draugr so he could get to his stuff π
Himminafl would be amazing if so many creatures in ashlands didn't resist pierce. Stun and electricity. So damn good.
whats the best weapon to use in the asklands?
So you need what, blunt?
I'm bringing my demolisher just in case I need some serious AOE.Z
when i am in troll armor i fear the swamp, when i am in root armor i fear the mountain, when i am in fenris i fear the plains and when i got all i need from the plains i am scared by the mistlands...soo... well that is valheim for you i guess?
Mistwalker is very powerful
Frostner keeps you very, very safe.
I find it annoying that they invalidated ranged
They don't want us to cheese mobs with backstab kills but they force us to cheese mobs with campfires and fortress portals.
I went to ashlands briefly
do you get alot more stuff when you make it to the ashlands. like weapons and whatnot?
Seems like they just want us to use a ton of ranged magic
Magic will get you killed, I hear. Too squishy.
I don't plan on getting hit
Why aren't abominations weak to chop?
Physical contact with most enemies is deadly
Iβve been fine with melee
Damage sucks, enemies are tanks, stamina is balls
bubble and fire/frost staff is my first bet ... i will try with that first and a good stamina bar please ... to dodge and jump... dodge and jump turned out to be good in all biomes so far so maybe it will work in ashlands too π
Early access jank
and with my jump and run skills both at 100 i can jump around quite a lot π
I shoot stuff as much as possible
it's busy, intentionally so, you just have to be a bit more surgical
I really noticed the difference with the feather cape after the update. I can jump over stake walls with ease, now.
That being said, feathers are annoying
The one resource that takes some time to gather
get some chickens and you never have a feater problem anymore ... i do not know where to stash them i have so many π
Wat
Chmkn
hens
I haven't killed chickens yet
They drop meat too
They give feathers
breed them and have good food and feathers π
yup
Neat
You don't kill chickens. You get eggs from sealed towers or buying them from Haldor for 1000 coins each
Make a cold farm for eggs and a warm farm for meat
and Sunday lunches are also covered
Then you put eggs near a fireplace and bam, chimken. Chickens eat seeds and Barley
and dandelion
I suggest Barley, though. Barley is so easy to get.
i made a point to collect an entire wooden box from day one of dandelion to feed the chickens with it
Lox pie, meat platter and serpent stew
my chickens live on a strickt dandelion diet π
yeh it had to be useful one day
No stamina food?
Survival
You need at least one stamina food there, bud.
well... with no stamina - no fighting and running... no survival
Stamina is essential for survival since jumping and rolling can prevent you taking damage entirely
If you go into mistlands dungeons you need to be able to take a hit
if you have a pityful stamina bar all the health will do no good
Just making bread is an excellent stamina food in a pinch
you can take a hit with honeyglazed chicken, misthare supreme and Bread or salad no problem
My favorite thing to make for stamina food is salads. Cheap to produce, easy to spam
salad is easy to come by and very cheap to make
Mushroom omelettes are tasty, too
mushroom omelette king aside from anglers
The 1 star seeker soldier i ran into would have killed me without lotsa hp
@azure yacht @hazy seal I ran a test. vertically, the copper and iron walls reached the same height. the iron gave an extra (2) 1x1x1 stone blocks of height stackability. 16 stones high unsupported, 34 stones copper supported, and 36 stones for iron. If either of you want, I can post the screenshots.
i usually go for 2 health and one stamina... unless i have magic already then 1 health 1 stam 1 eitr and i still can survive just fine π the bubble helps a lot
using health food when you have a bubble is just wasting eitr or stam
I do fine without fish and bread. If you need a stamina food in mistlands, you can do fine with salad, glazed chicken, and misthare supreme
I used to do 2 health 1 stamina but now Iβm trying 2 stamina 1 health and thatβs working out quite well
You still get decent health because the stamina foods give a bit of health too
it depends on playstyle a lot ... but without stamina it is very hard to fight or dodge and that will kill you faster than having only 180 hp in the mist
If you plan on parrying a bunch of things, I suggest you go for 2 health 1 stam.
If you plan on exploring, 2 Stam 1 health. Building... full Stam.
heavy fighting expected? a bit more hp sure
when I am building i go for 2 stam and one health for sure some mobs will show up and want to inspect what i am building so i prefer to have a bit of health in the mix to show them to the door π
but in reality it's only a small buffer, and if yr letting hits break the shield and kill you you didn't move fast enough xD
You're not showing them anything. Just beat them to oblivion.
true...learn how to dodge is a lifesaver...because the best damage is the damage not taken π
Ehy can't we plant fiddleheads? It's so dumb.
Jumping is usually better than rolling because it uses less stamina and you can start an attack animation mid-jump but not mid-roll
yeah but a roll has your shield up and that can help if you mistimed it a bit at least you got the shield up... just jump no shield and if you mistime...bam... so ja i will jump if i can instead of roll but some times roll is better π
and sometimes just take a step back..fulings are notorious for hitting the air when you just step one step back π
You can block mid-air, even if the animation isnβt playing
least stamina used of all
Devs need to add directional attacks.
I think they meant invulnerability frames.
invulnerability frames would help nothing if you mistime the roll
for instance i will roll while spearing a troll... but i will always jump to avoid a seekers soldire AOE
I'd appreciate it.
Although that is kinda strange, they have the same support so they should reach the exact same height
If you mean being able to attack up/down, that would be nice in some situations but Iβve gotten so used to it that when I play other games I instinctively avoid fighting on slopes and stairs (anyone else?)
same here... i never felt it was a big deal to go a step further to have same height as opponent
my husband thinks i am hillarious when he is watching me play: "oh a seeker - sir would you care to come over here with me to fight - it is very nice and flat here!" he would break out in fits of laughter
#screenshots message. posted here.
might have run the test wrong/had issues that I didn't think of, but this is the result.
Oh neat, that means it's basically cheaper iron wall for vertical stone builds
Small margin of error anyway.
And it still confirms and answers the question.
I haven't seen anyone else notice this
It's a very significant discovery.
Cheaper vertical support solution. And iron beams/floors can be used as horizontal support
And copper remains very useful in late game
Not mentioning that black forge is portable while normal one is not
I always find things like this fun to do because it shows things about the game that aren't readily available, more often than not.
Eureka
^
Yeah it's a very good thing to know that if you want some stone/black marble tower, you can cheap out using copper which is eons easier to get in bulk than iron
I'll update the wiki with that info, it is worth noting
if there is anything else that comes to mind, I don't mind looking into it (if achievable with devcommands).
Btw, I'd appreciate if you could take the same pic but at day/noon so it's much more visible, and I could post it in the respective wiki page
tod .5 it is
weird, it's been a thing since Mistlands release
Post it in screenshots
True, but the game is in early access which means there isn't a lot of people digging around on possible mechanics
But haven't seen anyone think at the fact that it provides the same support as iron cage walls.
In hindsight, it's kinda obvious now due to similarity alone
it's been discussed here in the discord before, but ofc that info was lost
True but you usually think "wait it's copper isn't this weaker than iron" too
Especially because this game is so progression forward
#screenshots message. it's there now.
And now that info has been recovered for the archives (they were incomplete)
sweet
SCIENCE!
Tbh I'd love to be able to build these giant dvergr logs they have in the towers
What I'd do for them to be buildable man
a real builder knows how all the pieces work
I would imagine the black forge?
no, i dont see a way to do it here
after all the gem cutter upgrade belongs to that bench
Can you find the recipe, even if itβs not craftable currently?
Also it needs to be level 4 I think
well...time to hit the hay...good night all
Tbh to keep all metal bars useful (at least in building), what'd you want each metal to specify on?
I'd like tin to be more of wall ornament metal, like a thin slabs to put on wooden walls to add detail on them
As for silver, more fancy item stands in a couple of possible variations like fenrir hands grabbing sth
tin/silver/gold filigree is something long suggested and agreed wanted, we've yet to see anything tho
As a April 1st joke tin(foil) hats would be funny. silver for a mirror might be nice.
all the metals could have a variation or several for decoration
i'd like to see gold and silver trim on build pieces as well
even better if we had more freedom over palette and where it was applied
a blackmetal plated door would look ominous.
especially going into a black marble building.
be nice if in a snap we could change it to white marble, or red marble, etc
yes, coloring would be nice.
I had put that into the suggestions a while ago (think bilebomb + berries spatted against a wall)
I agree. Especially bc I have soooo much tin and copper left over that I no longer have much use for
i love the textures they give the pieces, we just need more freedom for creativity, would make for some super looking builds
Definitely like for my portal house I only used tilted beams and it came out looking really nice in my opinion it looked more unique
Why does troll armor give you a bonus to sneaking? Because it's made out of hide
...

having the palette on signs already whetted our appetite, we need full unlock xD
Honestly tho the thing I desire most is horns that we can sound. Even if it calls enemies to us Iβd love to sound a horn right before a fight
or as a automated way to ping your location on a multi-player setting if the friendlies are with hearing distance (200m?) they would see the ping.
Yea bc there could be soooo many things you could do with them. Have horns that may provide a temp boost, or maybe a horn that pings you to lobby, calls for a raid, scares greylings/greydwarfs and such
or, as a way to increase the odds of a raid(?)
Great minds think alike
and great ale tastes great
Very true
We can do that with world modifiers, but I guess an in-game reason wouldn't hurt. It HAS been requested many, many times and not yet materialised but never give up hope.
drunks looking for a fight

Also like horns for gods maybe like, the horn of Loki which provides sneak skill or something like that
mind, wouldn't hurt to look for such in the suggestions and upvote them.
that Misthare looked at me funny.. hic
I was just exploring the shores of a continent that's in the fucking middle of my journey to elder and, very surprisingly, I found a leviathan very close to the shore. Didn't know they could spawn so close to land.
And there's a boar runestone just nearby so I can get enough leather to build a raft.
Odin's pampering me
Must have been a really steep shore then.
puts misthare and boar in a pen anyone placing bets? starting bet is 1 pint at the local meadery.
if it's raft-able it's close enough
Clashing one-handed weapon against shield and each type of shield has different ranges.
Buckler alerts enemies in a small radius, shields in a medium radius, tower shields in a very large radius. Horns would have a similar radius to tower shields but work as an alternative if the player doesn't want/have a tower shield
question for yall
yes
waiting with baited breath....
No, we don't know when Deep North will be released...
required is a strong word
it would depend on if you are playing as a mage or melee type
i have no one to help so ill be soloing if that helps narrow it down
i have a decent amount of food for just me built up for magic and high health and dtamina for melee
i'd suggest training blood magic to decent levels (50-60) and letting bubbled skele's run interference while you blast her from afar
magic is definitely easier than melee when played correct.
you can do it with full heavy armor
i have tier 3 heavy armor from mistlands rn
robes help, since they often boost your eitr recovery, but aren't a hard requirement.
as long as those magic levels are good you shouldn't be in the firing line much
i thought about the hood at the very least w the rest heavy for regen
kinda dumb but ive been struggling to find alot of soft tissue also tho
mining the skulls out?
clear winner in terms of volume, otherwise bits and bobs from dverger camps/houses/docks
gotcha. any tips for fast skill leveling?
it's all about how many hits you or your summons and their shields take
parking near skeletons with bows or a greydwarf spawner where they can't kill your's but can hit them a lot works
(some terraforming/building req)
So I just found out that the flametal pillar flying slide glitch also occurs on leviathans...
But I also found out that you can still mine despite that
At least is much easier to control on leviathans and the fear of instant death is not present
that's been a thing since forever iirc as well, why i wasn't surprised to see it work on the new ones
i think they may have had a go at fixes in the early days and then just gave up xD
like glitching through walls with chairs
sometimes i wish i had more ppl to play with lol
there is a whole section on this discord for that:https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510
it does get lonely sometimes, I agree.
i just want the village i built to feel more alive lol
not sure if there is a command for it, but you could look into spawning dvergr into the village.
i never thought of that
possible
but much like "boom towns", unless you are playing with friends, it might not last long.
*playing with real people that is.
groups can be much more fun than solo, and also much more frustrating xD
kinda sad but i always like running into those lil bastards cuz it feels more lived in when i do
Do dvergrs respawn now?
the ones I have seen in PTB ashlands did. but it was a loooong time between spawns.
like several in game days
just Ashlands ones? interesting
Interesting, because I just had a hollowed out dvergr castle that met one too many seekers and visited it and one turned up
the "wait, you are sentients and NOT trying to kill me...? Cool!" moment
I shot it accidentally so Iβm hoping theyβre not permanently mad at me
i also like fighting alongside them even tho they are very prone to killing me also lmao
ah that might be a problem
In fairness I was aiming at a seeker but just⦠missed
the group you hit, at least
Well, the seeker I missed killed them
not sure about the anger issue (haha), but I don't think it lasts if the dvergr respawns
Me too I only have 1 buddy who plays with me but only like 1 time a week for like an hour I like to game kinda slow and build and explore a lot before just going from biome to biome
yeh i think respawns are clean, i'd be surprised if not
Okay, good to know
it would be terrifying if they did. "you killed my ancestor, DIE!"
might result in a lot of angy dwarfies everywhere
Iβm not quite equipped to routinely fight dvergers yet, my group has yet to kill Bonemass this play through
Be careful early he reaaaaaaally messed me up
Yeah, I was planning to bring a gun to a knife fight

just level out the ground around bonemass and root mask for poison resist and it makes it a bit easier
Yea I had to get help from another player to join my server and help me kill him (my buddy the other day summoned him to surprise me) which left me to deal with him and I just couldnβt
basic rules of video games, don't stand in fire (or toxic puke), don't let his enormously long attack animations land hits on you, clear adds, gg
I'll probably platform up and pepper him with bolts.
later one yeah
I just built one today (for this playthrough)
it was... in some ways easier and in some ways harder than I expected
WHAAAAAAAT???? How did you get it
lots of sailing and playing chicken with seeker soldiers
Seeker soldiers? Hmm must be a biome or enemy I havnt met yet gotcha
pierce resistance is going to mean a lot of bolts....
way later than swamps
bro braved the mist early
I know, I'll bring a lot.
Ahh yea Iv not gone there yet like I said I like to take it slow and kinda get decent in a biome before going to the next one Iβm just starting plains
yeah, I'm playing the biomes way out of order.
youre almosy there then
lots of bolts, repair station
Goblins are hells warriors
just gotta beat our lord and savior yagluth
depends on if you count ashlands
I like the goblins
literal hells warriors
I use them for clearing swamp
Ohhh no I REALLY like them itβs really cool! they just are REAAAAAALLLY deadly
you been enjoying the squitos?
Especially the combo shaman dude and heavies
also this fuling berserker really helped me out with an abomination, solid dude.
I actually hate them but at least if I see them coming they arnt too difficult
brings out the DEET spray love em'
early barley/flax/lox farm really pays off
extra potent deet
Bro says early lox farm
lox are actually mad easy to tame
yup
The lox are demons without stone walls to keep them in
I'm hoping to skip plains.
dude dig a big ass hole and lure them in, ez
or a earth pit to trick them into...
i tame them in front of my farm so they defend it xD
Ahhhhh but i donβt like to cheese those things tho
LOL
earth wall in between
its not cheese. its easy of access
go troll -> root -> carapace
youll thank us for the lox goodies i promise
I donβt doubt it
But Iβm gonna build my new castle before I continue the plains too much
i have 2 lox and like 16 2 star wolves guarding my villlage lolol
this game is like the dairy arm of American agriculture, super full of cheese.
2STAR WOLVES
yes
BRO I GET DESTROYED BY REGS
How do you even tame them without getting jumped by the pack or a fenrir
very carefully lmao
Random Q, has anyone tried killing Yagluth with ballistas?
THERES BALLISTAS!!!
no but i kinda want to now
if you get a pack likelihood is yr gonna have to deal with the lower wolves first without damaging or being too close to the 2 star or it will kill you fast, then tracking it to a pit which you cover with floorboards, and then standing on a raised platform you deconstruct the floor and the wolf falls in the pit
pretty much
they tear though almost anything but earth.
Thatβs actually a good idea and doesnβt seem too cheesy since those kinda traps are real and used to catch prey
def requires a pit to tame
it's almost essential yeh
they do so much damage so fast
But before we forget the comment about this but. THERES BALLISTAS!!!
yes
last time I tried to tame a 1 star, it blew through a 2 wall thick stone enclosure before calming down.
Where and how
Well they only aggro on walls when they detect you are nearby. It is possible to trap them in a double layer of stone and then stealth during the taming as well. But digging the hole is probably the easiest way
I tried to sail to Ashlands and Hugin said no
later mistlands item
i managed to tame a 2 star with 3 layers of stakewalls, but it had eaten through them several times and if i wasn't watching and repairing/replacing the whole time it would have escaped
Well I may no longer be building a castle or exploring plains then. I MUST HAVE A BALLISTA
Apparently I cannot pass in my karve
and i got lucky it was on it's own
it will destroy it way before you get to any lands in ashlands. need the new boat
dat hot water no joke
Thatβs actually cool. That gives more reason to build a longship
longship wont make it either lol
was even boiling folk in their own hot tubs xD
I mean, but then I have to wait for my group
Longship probably wouldnt make it either. Need the new ceramic reinfoced boat
WHAAAAT?? And thereβs more than the longship?
be warned, they are BALISTIC. They will shoot you if you don't use a trophy as a "target" prior to loading the arrows/bolts. By default they shoot anything that moves (you included).
Does it at least still look like the longship
spartan has had his mind blown like 6 times and counting now
xD
Thatβs still the case?
always has been w them
yes
Its almost twice the size of the longship with a full inventory worth of storage
That screws over my ballista Yagluth idea a bit
new ship is MASSIVE
it's an even bigger barge xD
Yea I usually avoid news about games so Iβm blind most the time and get to find out as I go
if you dont mind spoilers, there is pictures of all boats in the wiki.
I built a little house in ash, within a hoe-wall area, suddenly something hit blowing off part of the roof, the crafting stations are gone, and the portal... no parts left behind.
metoer maybe?
BUT does it LOOK like the longship? Like with shields and a dragon head and beautiful sails
ouch.
no it looks like armored noahs ark
no shield?
there's a new boat I had to use, Drakkar, it's about the size of a long but it's wider and stronger
Awe thatβs sucky. I love the beauty of my longship fleet
dragonhead? Yes, the sails actually are not as grand as the longship but they are easier to see around
it looks really good actually im trolling
I'll try a shield...
bubble shield required
Yea If you look at the bow of the ship you will see itβs shaped like a dragon
they incorporated similar design into the new ship.
meow is the shield only stopping fire falling events or is acting like the ward outside ashlands?
Awesome! I hope they add sail designs for the ships . I just found out last night about shield designs and I made a whole new shield just for it
||it will stop any projectile from entering, including weather (like rain).||
ya. got myself quite the bubble-fort.
granted, my main base is on the meadows near initial spawn.
You guys are awesome I never get to talk valheim this is fun
when you're the only one in your friend group who plays valheim lol
Thatβs a good spot. I am about to build my new castle right under a huge mountain biome
i hope you can tp animals or have a cage on your ship in the future
that's part and parcel for this community. I more so live here on the forums than in game now that I have played though the current content.
Seems unlikely at this point.
YOU ALREADY BEAT ASHLANDS???
I imagine many have by now.
Itβs been out for like a week
not hard to do when you were apart of the BETA PTB
and a steam user who didn't have the setback that xbox had
I forget that this game is unfinished all the time itβs so well done
Asksvin (eggs) can be portaled
Closest thing we will (probably ever) get
They might mage transport friendly ways for it
if asksvin eggs can portal, then chickens can too likely.
everyone has been waiting on something like that since the longship
At the very least someone prolly wouldnβt have trouble making a mod for it
true
Also I like your pfp thatβs a red panda right?
correct
Cool
as per usual, # stolen off google#
Normally when me and my friends play valheim, i'm usually the tank style combat (i know there isn't a tank class) but i'm going to be trying to be a mage play style this play through. what should my food combo be? 2 mage and a stam?
Nah there is itβs big health food and heavy armor and tank shield class
Thereβs always class styles lol we make them ourselves
lol where ya there is that. ya, my tank style, i go 2 big health and a stam food
for root sap extraction, when it is all dried up, will it still produce? or do you have to remove the tap for it to work
it refills eventially, but for best results, you will wana move them to a new root while the other one refreshes.
i have 3 taps in 1 area, dont need it too often, so ill just elave it there
thank youd
Is it normal to see seekers literally come up out of the ground right in front of you? I don't remember them doing that before this update
it only seems to happen when I'm near one of the mines, haven't had it happen anywhere else
If I tame Lox and bring them to my base, will they try to kill my tamed wolves?
lol, well to tell ya the truth, i'm not a cajun, just have the name. in wow.. my name was ragingstorm, when i moved servers, i had to change name. LOL my friend and co guild leader suggested ragingcajun due to my love of food lol
Ohβ¦darn
@charred cliff that's news to me...like "i dug myself out of the ground because I heard you coming" or did it just clip up from the ground?
Nope, I use wolves to protect the lox herd π
Very cool, thanks man!
if tames hurt each other, you couldn't have wolves and other animals like chickens or lox. thankfully that isn't the case.
Actually i noticed that thames are kinda useless in combat? I got 1 star Asksvin being obliterated by normal warrior
i will try to tame a 2 star to see the difference
I don't think tames are designed for combat, it's just that wolves have high damage output...then again, anything in large number could overwhelm a single mob.
can i change the world modifiers on an old map?
no matter how tanky a 2 star worrior is, (20) 2 star tames would likly take it down
we havent played it since the mistlands update
you should be able to, yes.
will it effect the whole map or just new areas?
Asksvin doesnt follow player so is kinda hard to do that with them
they are world modifiers in more than just name.
You totally can, and it affects the whole world
Uhhh
even areas we already been to?
yes
Yes
Wait wait im lost on the context
they mostly effect drop rates
Like a resource multiplier makes shit drop more items
but if we choose no portals and we already have some at our base?
Then you cant use them
Difficulty, death penalty, portalling, resource drops etc
They can stiff craft it but
Afiak, the portals wont be useable
almost like the become decoration only instead of functional
If i already killed The Queen, can i just go to another spawn to kill It again?
Yes
that, or you can use trophies to resommon her.
Either that or use Seeker Soldier trophies to summon her again
i really dont want to get 3 Soldiers trophy
Had my first bow duel with a 2 star draugr for this play through. I won.
You cant use portal when bosses are spawned
@ornate sigil
?
wouldnt it have to be a certain radius?
you just cant use them at all?
i thought i had to defeat the queen to unlock ashlands raids??
cuz i havent and i just got one??????
probably the portal near Boss spawn or area
raids are prior. if you beat ekithr, you get elder raids
well
havent tested that
i havent beat the queen tho
If the servers got Raids based on players progress, another player could defeat the Queen
might be different if you have player based raids on.
Is it a raid or night spawn? Is there a message across your screen?
world based raids are strictly based on bosses beaten, player based are a different animal
it was a raid. i got the prompt
so it had to be from my friend joining once after he beat the queen
that might be the culprit.
Should be based upon the world, not the character.
might need to call the BRS soon....
heavy armor + carapace Shield + Mistwalker
i died and im trapped underground by my portal to my farm
Well, if your friend spawned that raid, I'd say call him, tell him to drag his ugly butt over there and help you to get out of that situation.
youre right thorin son of thrain son of thror
And if he isn't able to, for whatever reason, wait until he is able to get in the game and help you
if i can not die getting back to my stuff i should be able to slowly finish them off
i just didnt have all my good food cuz i was working on my farm
Do you have a portal over there?
yes trapped underground
Are you able to portal to your main base where you got all the good armor and weapons?
hold
If you can, might be a good idea to get the best items you have, eat the best food and try to deal with them.
If not and you're safe underground, wait for the raid timer to expire, wait a bit longer to have those raid monsters to despawn and then check if you're able to get your goods back.
i hate the support system in valheim, i make a pillar, the damn thing is still red! i cant fucking construct anything because of this!
Is it just me or is the ashen cape seem like way too big and does not wave enough for a cape?
unless they get agro from the usual area's mobs, several minutes past the raid ending should be enough.
might wana ask around here: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202303747053846608
they usually have some good ideas. in general you need to reinforce anything in the "heavy" category. same can happen for wood.
but i reinforce, and its still red, im gonna go crazy!
would like it if this reinforce system didnt exist at all
The devs might have made it more stiff because it was clipping badly when originally designed.
When sprinting it is still clipping really bad
mind posting into :https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202310893757530142 ?
i might be able to offer pointers.
someone joked about this because it clipped in front and looked like "a deep north parka"
it is a odd system for sure
I don't remember my first build, but I do remember the meme's about it....
think my game is broken lmao
I still think the ashen cape is sized too big
i get my stuff turn around and an ashen warrior is fighting a seeker in the black forest by my farm
doesnt help that everything i build looks like a fucking commie block, i hate building in this game
Flametal Shields are too big. The Cape is Just adjusted to Flametal Armor
Imagine throwing a 2 star lox in a fortress
then try "circles" (there more like octagons).
imagine if Lox had stars
Oh right, anything is possible. Imagine the player having stars
with the right mods and a catapult....
wish they had stars
Then waste 10043736374736 arrows on it
i tried adding mods to this playthrough and my game wouldnt start up so i gave up
Same
and i didnt want to restart
mods arn't for the feint of heart...they take some work to load properly.
i only had like 7 loaded lol
Use that mod launcher
its probably cuz i use vortex
Imagine if 10 star mobs existed
Thunderstore i think
Like a boar that does 100 damage instead of 10
I got 1 print of an 17 star skeleton
taller like a Black Forest tree
i actually prefer vanilla Over anything
i think the reason stars of different mods dont exist is cuz the drops loading in can crash systems
Ahhh fair
No mods in that game is comparable to the original content
Same kinda like skyrim im a vanilla guy
Like mods are cool but i get bored fast
me and my buddy spawned in a 2 star serpent and the amount of stuff it dropped like crashed the game
Imagine it on 3x
I hope you like 180 serpent meat spawning at once
like it dropped soooo much shit lol
Btw i actually never got Serpent scales untill my newest world
The Shield is Very good tho
shield is good im about to use it soon
I truly hope all greydwarfs due,1# most annoying enemy
make a farm watch them all burn
Dismantle boat, put boat in box.
wdym by safe
Stop shit from attacking it and still having easy access
wall off wherever it is and build a dock
in this case, ballistas
Noted
Not a hard thing to do i just hate that they only attack one thing
I suppose I'll have to spice it up half fulling 5% lox 45% Ashland FUCKS raiding me every 2 seconds
They'll attack anything if they can't path to you.
Oh trust me they just swim 5000 feet into the water and somehow attack my boat
I don't think 5000 feet is even in render distance.
wall it off and spawn proof it
Aight guess I'm making boat gates
Balistas attack everything as long as you don't use a trophy on them.
They do have problems with fast targets, however. But with some luck you should be able to remove those with a (good) bow.
Yea but they attack me as well :/
Nice name Thorin
True. But that can be countered by using a shield and / or the magic bubble.
If you use trophies on balistae, you might need one for each monster you could encounter.
Which - seeing your previous message - means fullings, seekers and several ashland chars.
So that's 5-6 balistas all set for one possible monster.
so i built a basement for brewing, but it seems you cant build things below a certain depth for some reason
This game is anti cave
And out of those monsters, only the seekers are most likely being hit as the other ones may be too fast.
But....
I haven't dealt with an Ashland raid yet, so I have absolute no idea what kind of monsters it has.
lame that i have a useless basement
Seekers don't raid after the queen do they?
iirc you can go 8m down from the surface before hitting the indestructible "ground". Usually that should be enough to build a basement.
Idk why the devs went "lets make digging out bases impossible" but that does remind me i can make a basement in my building
No, but they spawn in several biomes at night.
Nearly gave me a heart attack and a character death when I docked my ship in the plains during a night. Was just lucky enough to jump up and out of the way, so they concentrated on a couple of fullings.
Ooh well i have a giant uh cube if you Will so unless a seeker can spawn about 100 meters away and see me through the wall
Its a non issue. Its just the non stop clown goblins and new skeles
It can wander more close, but in general you'll be safe.
I dunno if you got a moat outside your walls?
You're not using a wooden floor, are you?
Always!
And what's the height between the floor and the one at "ground" level?
not that far
That i do and its a pretty tall wall its what i consider to be my main center i haven't finished the rest
but the floor of the basement is low enough, that it fills with water on and off
Pro tip
Campfire may choke itself on the smoke; the fermentor may be too high to be placed under that other floor.
If you're able to lift it by 1m, you may be good.
Put iron bars on the floor place a campfire put your original floor on it then remove the iron bars
Are you able to build a smelter or kiln?
Thats never failed me
Should be, considering you got a stone floor.
I've had no issues
I prefer stone floor Because its perfectly flat
if his roof is too low they won't vent
Nope, was directed at the Emissary.
i would share a screenshot but i guess i cant here
well the room fills with smoke. but i cant even place a fireplace. and i did have a hole to vent
Or maybe even #building-screenshots
i mean it would fill with smoke if it was enclosed and i could place it
If you can place a kiln or smelter, the height is good enough.
The smoke will in general move out of the way as well.
If the smelter is sticking a bit through the other floor, it's even better, as you can place a hearth over it and get two birds with one stone.
If you, however, got a problem with water flowing over the floor every now and then, you actually dug a bit too deep. And I know that sounds odd, but the reason for it is that the water level in this game is at a preset level. Meaning that with certain weather conditions, even the water close to a coastal area will rise and fall.
i put the pictures in screenshot
yeah. my base as a whole is near waterlevel. during bad storms, the whole base floods out
even the surface rooms
can't build on submerged areas
but you can put standing torches apprently i guess
yes
What you could try is to remove one floor tile and turn it into a dirt pillar, sticking out a bit above the floor; then try again.
jack o turnip on a wood beam also works
looks to me like its the hanging brazier that's preventing you from placing the campfire
it cant be place reguardless
Are you able to put balistae at the corners of your base walls? And perhaps 1-2 in between as well?
You might most likely just got above waterlevel with that.
At least I'm glad it worked; even if it's a big ugly looking.
But you might try to deal with that by placing something around that pilar, like stone stairs, giving the false impression you did it on purpose. π
Uh whats the range
Because like the walls are urm tall
the moder location is revealed while in an ice cave right?
hey guys
i was wondering if i would like to play with more people with someone join
im new at the game and my friends dont play it...
I think it just clipped up from the ground. What I think is happening is that mobs from inside dungeons/mines are somehow getting/clipping out? The first time it happened, over a dozen seekers plus some ticks appeared out of nowhere, and it was roughly the amount of seekers/ticks left in the mine (the same amount of starred seekers) when I was finally able to go back in. I saw one look like it came out of the ground, but it's misty so it's hard to tell exactly what's happening but they are appearing out of seemingly nowhere as there was no audio of enemies before they appeared. It usually happens after using a portal
This last set of enemies was near the queen, so I can't confirm if the amount matches what's inside because I haven't unlocked it yet
I never saw this behavior after extensive time in the mistlands prior to the ashlands update
No
The moder is found via tablets in stone ruins
goodnight people, quick question, is it me or Ashlands stutters like hell?
It appears in both.
And Frost Caves.
why does my fire keep going out randomly
Probably smoke.
society if we could build the grausten ruins pieces
Except not... try putting a carpet on it and you'll notice things sticking through the carpet. Just why?
you guys think devs will ever add rope to valheim?
for execution?
Uhh... yea execution. Rope doesn't have any other uses like climbing, hanging bridges ect. after all
no? rope to use like a tool.
have you guys noticed when you pack a cart full of items it gets visually filled with crates, barrels and A BUCKET. will they implementa bucket in the future? as an ingame item?
who cares about silver
we all know the real reason we go to the mountains is
to get glass
probably not, but would be nice.
Btw, has anybody spotted a 4th spooky in the main menu screen?
theres a 4th??? ive only seen the weird firey skeleton
No clue, but been wondering if there is a 4th one really well hidden
ahh ok
uhhh i just learned about extended combos???
So true
i will fight
a giant deer
begin the bronze age
a giant tree guy
begin the iron age
a giant green goop and bone guy
create magical frost resistance elixirs
climb a mountain
fight a giant stone silver guy
to get glass
Anyone figured out the spawn interval for Ashlands? For charred it seems to be like whatever, once a minute or so.. But for other creatures who clearly have static spawn locations? Feels like around 3-4 times a day (twice a day twice a night)
But once you get the tar then thatβs when the windows get better
Tar is way to go unfortunately
i agree
glass is supreme
Agree to disagree π€
But itβs special β¨glassβ¨
So today we're sailing for Ashlands and is it all that we need?
- material for 1 shield generator
- material for 1 stone cutter
- 7 black marble stacks
- wood
Hi Everyone! After upgrading my gpu to RX 6800 I realized that valheim runs very bad on amd cards. On 1440p ultra dips to 50s
Thats very bad, really bad performance
This card should melt this game even on 4k
What's your CPU?
There is no CPU that can tame Valheim or other building games with dynamic environments.
So expect to be CPU limited at times.
I would take materials for a normal portal so you can hop back to main base to deliver random materials back and forth.. Also, 7 stacks of stone/marble/grau is still a bit low for a building big enough to accommodate your crafting stations, beds, fire, etc (the storm in Ashlands puts out fires like rain)
4500 coal almost done cooking... hopefully this is going to last for a while
This one is already set near Ashlands, we will remove it and place in other place
Bring a hoe and a couple stacks of stone for terrain walls. The black marble you can leave at home since grausten is plentiful.
Yep Gray is plenty but also it's a good idea to build a shelter as soon as you land so you can mark a spawn location before heading out to get materials
(Lack of ability to post pics is pain sometimes) We plan to sail into a small bay, near Fader altar, then move towards first fort and there make base.
5600g
There's your problem right there
Not that more shouldn't be done by the developers to make Valheim more performant. But all the physics in this game are going to push your CPU the limit.
Anything with building and lots of pathfinding will sneak up on you and hammer your CPU. Timberborn doesn't make any CPU reviews, but it will kill any CPU eventually.
It's honestly one of the reasons I'm sort of disillusioned with hardware reviews.
RX 6800 is very well priced right now, wow. So definitely a good call picking one up.
which one of them? Checking local prices they range from nearly 600 to 1300 euros
Well far more reasonably priced there. almost every local option asks for almost 600
Supply probably running low on that generation
hey guys! could somebody recommend a no skill drain mod (for my own server)? i am solo and keep dying in ashlands and it gets too difficult with my skills back to 20 :(
back to 20? And I thought dipping some of my skills below 70 was bad. Yea for sure would recommend that. 20 is a bit low to deal with ashlands
devcommands > setkey ||SkillReductionRate 0||
It's kind of silly how dying in this game makes dying even easier
players that are already struggling just end up getting kicked while down even harder
think it would be good idea to set milestones for skills so they cannot drop below that line once you reach it
the death penalty still ensures your skill level will not go past certain point when you keep dying too often tho
would also make using multiple different weapons more doable
which they're clearly trying to encourage with leaving out weapons in latest biomes...
just sucks the weapon I was planning to try wasn't included and I guess I'm not trying that weapon now
i like it the way it is as default. you're too weak for something? get better come back. it will take some time yeah, but otherwise you can just rush everything and get max lvls
or come back and lose all the levels again... what you going to do? Go somewhere else to level up, then try again, lose levels, go away, come back to lose more?
it's just my personal opinion, i like games that are actually a challenge
you could just use campfires and visit the mountains right away
levels are just an endless grind tho
That people choose to do despite being utterly unnecessary
losing them sucks a lot. Only players that are already good at this kind of games have a chance to maintain a high level
Best way is to play with friend and confuse AI
Maybe wasn't necessary before Ashlands, but with this new difficulty spike you kinda NEED every advantage you can get if you're a melee player
Not anyone else's fault that people decide to actively grind for levels rather than letting them level up by just playing. That's on themselves
you already saw an example what happens without grinding (without high skill)... it just stays low
reaches end of ashlands completely solo with skill levels at less than 30
Cool
cool, now are you going to play the game for everyone else?
Is that related to anything...?
is you being able to do that related to anything? you're you and not anybody else that is struggling
It is... Because it's an example that skills are way too overrated and not the most essential thing that people make them to be.
The fact that I could reach final stages of ashlands at that level range means that the biome is far from being super difficult or even impossible
Actively grinding them is worthless if you might lose them anyway, best to just let them level up on their own via normal playtime
you do realize that skilled dark souls players can finish the game without taking a single hit and do it with a garbage weapon? That doesn't prove anything. Most people aren't going to be able to replicate that, ever
What the current system does it punish players that already struggle and reward skilled players that do not need higher skill levels to boost their damage
Good thing valheim is not DS or have any close similarity to it other than dodge roll
good job completely ignoring the point... I don't really see you ever arguing in good faith
Everyone struggles at first
Those same experienced players you're referring to started that way as well and now they die less.
Idk why you're separating them. They simply and literally just git gud
It's the same people
Of course it's punishing, that's the encouragement to become better. The main issue is people refuse to see this and just try to do things in the least efficient way possible and then complain about game being broken.
My brother in Odin, the issue is not the game, it's you not using the tools at your disposal
I repeat, the experienced player that die less now were also the same players that died every three seconds in the past.
oh do i do that every time i load my game?
It should be saved to the world
As long as you don't change the world modifiers
please someone make a mod that can pick up chicken eggs
That's called Valheim.
By pressing E or making sure auto pick up is enabled with V
does the ruby thing deal more to low health enemies or is it your low health the way it scales?
Valheim not responding when am trying to start the world... how to fix?
It seems you need a unobstructed line of sight to the chicken egg to pick it up, but chickens/hens are always near them, I pet the hens 20 times before I can pick up one egg.
are you launching the world for first time after updating? It might appear to be unresponsive, but it's just taking more time than usual
the game is working on updating your world, if it's first time after ashlands update
Howβs Ashlands going for everyone? Is it cool?
No just noπ
difficult but fun
mob spawn is kind of dumb tho
I heard itβs was really hectic then they lessen the amount of mob spawns
at least should be good way to get a lot of xp, assuming you stay alive
Yours
i have a nice house anyone wants to ocupye π and live in π
how to build work bench, i dont see the otpiton
In hammer > crafting?
thx
sailing to bonemass.. first timer.. wish me luck
the internet says to summon moder after digging all around the platform, what if my moder summon location is next to a cliff lol
you probably wont face Bonemass at First, clear the area and the spawners
It's fun but sometimes the spawnrate is just ridicilous, it makes traversing the place extremely tedious (alot like Black Forest at night, neverending hordes of graydwarves, except I think it's even worse in Ashlands)
something a lot of new players have to learn to hard way is don't mine at night in black forest. you'll spend more time killing enemies than hitting that rock
Yep, any biome is awful at night but Black Forest with endless graydwarves who just run around in circles and throw dung at you is the worst
i always mined at night so i think im used to deal with this
best advice someone gave me was to flatten out the surrounding area of the boss summon so that i wouldnt get slowed down by trying to walk through water all the time
The spawn rate is the same as every other biome.
Go wherever the marker shows.
That's not true...
The spawn rates in ashlands are definitely much higher vs any other biome in the game
It's very evident
Well even if it was so, that's purely semantics.. Having 10 spawn locations within a 10 yard radius, each spawning a mob at fixed (staggered) interval; compared to having 1 spawn location within a 10 yard radius, spawning a mob at a fixed (staggered) interval is still gonna end up with the prior spawning 10 times more monsters within a given timeframe
And it surely is staggered, all the mobs in the biome don't spawn simultaenously... So this'll leave you with getting another mob spawning way more frequently in a given area, than in other biomes
That sounds kinda dope, havenβt had the chance to get to the Ashlands yet
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_zones if you're actually interested in the mechanics.
But yes, every 4 seconds all spawners in a zone will try and fire.
Tedious?
How can you feel tedious when an Undead burning army is running at you? Suddently Mutant Sized Necks surround you
and your only option is fight, If you try to run you will die
Oh no, far more.
Maaaam I really need to get to the Ashlands now
Lol well yeah it's tedious at best, nightmarish at worst xD Getting starred asksvins, a couple of morgen and a friendly little valkyrie on your ass while getting swarmed by charred from all direcitons
Bonemass Forsaken Power run in your veins and you are ready to fight! Your portal broke a time ago and you dont have time to rebuild it
Whelp, gotta love those spoilers.
Is such adrenaline
Iβm mean as long as I donβt look up what those things are Iβm good
You already know about mobs existences, im just telling my stories
Though Valkyrie reminds me of that bird that drops you off at the beginning on the games
They ALL appeared in the trailer and in old footages
I havenβt seen them
Not everyone does.
there was some patch note that stated "UFOs can appear and can make crop circles" what is this about?
And lets be honest, watching a vΓdeo is TOTALLY DIFFERENT of YOUR gameplay
i received spoilers much more than this, and i keep in my mind "i will just play this when update releases" and that is it!
Nah itβs all good sooner or later people are going to be there and see the mobs themselves
Your sword swing is different
Wrong game?
Actually some type of UFO does exist in Valheim.
Thor doesnβt count
IM not talking about him
nope, idk if my source is good enough but i saw it in a valheim yt vid
have you seen it?
I've seen green men in the swamp alright
Hah.
