That makes sense. Just wish there was more that could be done, hungry for content since the game is only on version .2 it worries me that the game will not be completed anytime in the next decade. Coming up on almost 4 years of launch of EA in February.
it says desired outcome so lets just say reduced
Next major update will most likely be 1.0 with deep north
I doubt the issue was the definition of the word “tweak”. But I could be wrong.
then explain what tweak means. increase or decrease spawn rate?
Spawn rates have been decreased
.2 doesn’t indicate completion proportion. The games is like 90% content complete. There is just 1 biome left to do.
The developers can choose any number for the version if they want to
I'd imagine it is a lack of sane existing staff. And a severe lack of staff in general
For anyone that has it muted, Blobi reposted a post, from the beta test channel, over the general channel, which has some actual numbers: #general message
uhm when setting up a server through a service, is it possible to check out the seed ?
or is it automated ?
It would depend on the service, so we don't know
There is probably some way to set it, I don't see why not
You can see it ingame. Not sure about if they have that info on the webpage
5+ years (it's safe to assume we won't be getting Deep North anytime soon) also isn't an unheard of Early Access period in the Indie Survival space, but it is on the slower end of it
That'll be interesting

Is there any reason to upgrade staff of the wild or trollstav?
Increased durability.
Sad
Honestly though, Valheim is more complete and in better state in Early Access than many/most "fully" released games out there. Personally I am fine with longer time between updates when the polish is at this level. Played so many other EA titles that have been an utter mess during their entire development up to and after 1.0.
damn.... when loading with mods the game was tryna spawn my character in like 300 times at the same time
when creating the server.... no clue as to why that might've happened, aside ofc one of the mods causing it since it works fine without them
damn i rly wanted a run with some QoL mods but i guess vanilla will do
New patch today. Mods probably not updated to fit the new game version yet. Easy solution = don’t play with mods
You're partially right. It is more complete than many many survival titles, but I wouldn't exactly call it Valheim's netcode polished
Everything is relative, I'm just comparing how it performs to other games I have played. But of course some things can (and will) be improved.
::((
valheim is the peak of survival gaming
Whenever theres an update it usually means about a week for mods to catch up, just take a break till then
In game, press F2
runestones?
for the queen?
no just random lore
you need to update valheim+ https://github.com/Grantapher/ValheimPlus/releases/tag/0.9.14.0-alpha04
im nto using valheim +
tried with bepinex tho, but now its working through the modmanager
(had to take bep off on the g-portal site tho)
So, in the end what did it mean they "tweaked" mob spawn? was it really decreased?
Guys quick question. Does boats with cargo prevent the boat from despawning?
Boats don't despawn
Cause i had 2 longships that suddenly went missing
They were destroyed by mobs then
And it was parked inside my port area
Or if you play on a multiplayer server, pirates came by
But it if it was destroyed why was there no drops
Stuff despawns in the water if you leave it long enough
Like the nails and stuff
Those can despawn if not near a base object
Hmmm
after 2 days already I thin
Dang. Just finished building a nice base in Ashlands, Flametal gates and all.. then realised theres no more Forts or PoI's on the island... Need to move on!
ye, an ongoing problem of Valheim. ^^
Yeah more so in Ashland's, as there's nothing to farm.
You can't grown crops I mean
you can
Yeah still tons on Spires I can mine
1 berry leaves seeds if you gather em
They grow in meadows too though
you can find so many you dont even need to plant them. but they look cool growing on my house
tru
Gems can be a bottleneck.
any idea as to why my devcommands wont work ? i can put em on but they spawning and debugmode wont work
im on the dedicated server i set up
Need to be an admin?
i added myself admin on the setups
says devcommands on, but spawning isnt working
could it be azu anticheat causing it ?
Commands dont work in multiplayer
Only some, i wanted to reset keys but couldnt
cuz i wanted to make a spawn hub basically for when ppl start coming in
You can only use commands in multiplayer if you're hosting the world in-game, not with a dedicated server
ohhhhh
funny how the site still has a guide on how to use commands in game 💀 misdirection
ohhh the new patch is out... me wanna go play.. but i will have to work for 3,5 h until then 😦
omg solo mage in ashland is so annoying. shield brakes. poise breaks. then something random in my room almost breaks
Are you jump attacking to keep movement? It will help keep your shield up and make replacing the shield safer when it breaks
ye, but even then, 1 rock or arrow breaks my poise and i can t do anything but watch my guy die
lost 10 blood levels now gg
only going to get harder
Once you get the ashlands weapons and armor it will become easier.
Morgen gjall.
Yeah easier is the operative word, never easy or comfortable in Ashlands for me, even knowing everything and with the latest changes. I just lowered my death penalty again as my skills were down at 20-30. Its a nasty spiral
Anyone else unable to play due to having valheim plus installed and now games broken since the update?
Probably everyone who has it installed.
Mods tend to do that; for now you're gonna have to uninstall any and wait for updates if you want to continue playing.
decreased a bit yea. there's numbers somewhere in #general
that's how working wuth mods usually works. needs to be updated by author after new patch
you can use this version currently https://github.com/Grantapher/ValheimPlus/releases/tag/0.9.14.0-alpha04
if something is 2m below water level (in water of course) and 1 hour will pass, it will despawn no matter what
it's probably taking damage from it raining
if not covered by a roof or smth rain will reduce it to 50% durability
That's annoying
better make a dockhouse 😏
my friend built a pretty cool roof that extended to just before the edge of the dock. added banners to line the hall and torches. looks really sick
Does the entire dock floor need a roof? or just parts of it?
Did the update just now made ashland easier to explore?
not sure. i think roof needs to cover most if not all the floor
Hm okay, thanks
are there even more detailed patchnotes somewhere with tweak numbers?🤔
What’s everyone’s favourite biome
Meadows
thank you
Plains
My favorite biome atmospherically is the swamp. But my favorite in terms of just hanging out and exploring is the meadows. That said, I haven’t yet been to the Ashlands. I’m an intentionally slow player. What can I say.
any way to join a server thats still before the update?
since i updated my game i cant join valheim rp since its still running 27 and im on 31
Also the preview for the new content this Fall looks cool. Wonder what that thing in the swamp is. I’m also going to have to avoid exploring any further swamps in my current world.
I wonder what those things in the swamps could be
Swamp and Ashlands
Plains and mistland are my favourites.
Swamp and mistlands
Favorite mood = meadows. Favorite base location = plains.
Weapons = mistlands, magic is so fun
Dagger and bow build is also fun, my preferred playstyle till magic.
I will be trying zerker axes later on though.
The only annoying thing is keeping stock of food, especially in mistlands, I barely find seekers
what
Favourite aesthetic: Plains.
Favourite to explore: Black Forest.
Favourite enemies: Plains.
Favourite every other possible metric: Meadows.
How so?
in terms of crops, much easier to collect.
Find an infested mine and put 2 portals there, one to get to it, one to get back to base, every few irl hours they get respawned as in a lot of mobs and the royal jelly are back.
Now if you find another IM you can set 2 portals up again and link the 2 IM's to each other so you can farm one after the other.
I know I'm just talking about seeker meat
how. hare meat is what i had trouble farming until u get magic
Thank you
Yea but I don't really bother with hare
you mean for eitr food?
Also I didn't know jelly comes back
Hare isn't in eitr food
Im pissed im stuck
seeker meat
These 2 trolls are destroying my base and I cant stop them
Yeah, soldier, seekers and royal jelly certainly come back, not sure about the ticks.
Well, it seems like they are adding the ||witch NPC|| after sll
kill them
They keep killing me
It was long due
Seeker meat and hare meat are different?
no seeker meat is used for eitr food
What ||witch npc||?
Ticks come back
I know, I'm saying I don't bother with hare meat
Dig a hole, put a floor over it, lure trolls on it, destroy floor or have them destroy it and they end up in the pit, which they can't get out off.
Good for the bloodclots.
True
I’ve seen that
2-3 infected mines and i got all the meat and clots i need for the rest of the game
Kite them away from your base.
you need to clear a couple mines for black cores anyways. unless you get super lucky
I know an easy Infested mine near my puffs and caps so that's good
Hut in swamps, "something is brewing in the swamps", weird sigils surrounding the structure...
witch taht throws posion viles incoming
I thought we were getting new ancient bark build pieces
What's up with the 🌸 in people's names
We have two traders already following the trend.
And one is meadows, another in BF, swamps is the third biome
Should be removed, spring ended months ago
Oh
is that what the flames is for? for summer heat
Ashlands public test
It's not impossible but I'm certain they are teasing a new NPC
When it became spring a developer went nuts.
I'm concerned
There is still few days of Summer left 🌸🌸
@near furnace Shouldn't you summerify usernames or are you gonna wait for autumn to autumnise usernames?
25 ish
I'm in the winter
I don’t want my flower removed 
Good time to stay inside and play Valheim.
Something something phrasing
No I got school, also no snow because it's the north island of NZ
Also my friend host the server
How cold does it get?
Chur bro
No deflowering by Smiffe for you?
No, but I’ll happily have extra emojis added
Like most would be -1°c to 0°c but it hasn't been that recently
Chur mah cuzzie
Eyyy cuzz lol
Eyyyyy
The average amount of ore that you get from spires is slightly lower, but it has a much lower chance to start sinking so it'll be an overall improvement from before.
Eurgh, winters need to be cold and with a chance of snow.
First going out for a snowball fight and later on sitting inside around a stove sipping hot cocoa or tea for the lactose intolerant amongst us.
Great, I just reached Ashlands and mined only two Veins
lmaooo
among us ??
Is 2-4 flametal per hit more than what it was before? I don't remember.
Hot cocoa with almond or some other plant milk works, if the chocolate itself is also dairy free.
Both are correct, amongst is more formal / archaic. Among is more commonly used but I've learned amongst first and keep using it.
And amogus is just a symptom of brainrot.
i was referencing the game
Ah, let's not resort to murdering and accusing each other.
It was previously 3-4, so lower range has been reduced by one, but the chances of sinking have been reduced so much that it should more than make up for it.
ill try cant promise anything
You'll be getting more ore per spire on average
Ah, thanks.
Yeah, 1% per hit from 10% is a huge drop, so I'm wondering how that'll play like if/when I get a chance to go romping in the lava again.
I can see whole spires getting potentially mined out.
romping
is that a word
Yes.
what !! never heard anyone say it before ever
People don't really say it anymore, true.
I do like a good romp.
Swamps be getting witches huts by that blog post 🧙♀️
Maybe some frogs moved into the bayou and they brought a banjo playing gator and a bunch of fireflies.
Cant wait to mine more of them. I mined 2 with a friend and manage to craft some cool stuff
I’m surprised to read it was as low as 10%. It felt closer to 50% to me.
it's pokemon move logic - 70% is actually less than 50%, but only when the 70% chance is in your favor
Oh boi Swamp is getting another Content update and we are getting Hildir Overhaul!
think it's another 'lost' Dvergr trader? I'm assuming so.
Maybe another Hildir mini Boss
Oh, I have to complete those quests..
Whats after Ashlands
Deep North
When is it gonna drop
We don’t know, but not for a while because ashlands released recently and there’s probably a smaller update releasing before it
What's the small update
Morning, just got here so i don't know if anyone already answered this, but the post got me confused
Is the swamp thing "brewing" our it's already in game after the last changes
It's still brewing. They're working on it.
No one knows
No
anyone here used the g-portal ? i think i have to switch up my server location
how much have the ashland spawn rates changed? I don't think I've noticed a difference in the PTR
I think the live update is maybe just the same as the last PTB update.
it is, yes
I am stoked... can't wait for it 😄 glad it will soon be fall 😄
I do hope they give poor Hildir better wares... i always complete the quests but do not bring her the boxes to avoid the raids that entail... the wares she offers do not make up for the trouble of geirhaffa visiting you in the night with his bullies is 😄
Since the last update i have the problem that im glitching inside my bed.. anytime i try to move inside a house it glitches me inside my bed shaking my screen anyone have a solution how to fix it ? or does anybody know why it happens
does it look like this? #valheim-help message
jes okay i try to look wich mod it causes ^^
who wants to play
maybe someone over in servers-and-lfg 😄
i think the witch hut will have a crafting table and a cauldron and a witch and a black cat (minecraft reference)
oh if there's a black cat, i'm NOT leaving that place
We don't know
gonna go play some with Astrid before i go streaming with Freydis tonight... wanna see about the new update 😄
but what would you assume
No idea really, bit i highly doubt that it would be gems, you could use them only 4 biomes later
and then they'd skip part of said biome's progression, or at least make it easier
well, arent eggs a skip of content too?
not really (imo), considering both sources are from optional out-of-the-way content
ashlands forts are half the biome's thing
well that's sad. looks like a seeker soldier wiped out my dvergr bros
i was just thinking about making them some defensive structures lol
i should have figured their time was limited. no healing mage in the group
How to beat Ashlands solo on medium difficulty? Why is this so impossible?
you need to dig a trench
Don't you think this location is poorly balanced?
I don't have much of an opinion on balance. But, Ashlands is IMO the least finished biome to be released.
It isn't
Did you feel good about that level of input?
Yeah, but also this is the reason why i droped valheim, cuz its imposible to play on Ashlands solo. I changed the difficulty to minimum, it’s playable, but why did I suffer before that? I'm not a casual player, I like challenges. I hate inadequate imbalance...
they just released a balance patch. but yes. it can be rough without experience and even then you can die from time to time.
I didn't find Ashlands any different to the experience of expanding into Plains, or Mistlands. Initially, the game gives us an invitation to 'Get Rekt!". Then, we spend a horrible time obtaining new minerals & crafting materials. At the end of it, close to max-level gear/food in a biome makes progresion pretty simple.
For example, if you arrive in the misty lands with at least basic leveling, it’s not without difficulty, but you can survive there. In the ashen lands, I pumped everything I had to the maximum. Zero damage to enemies, they kill me in one hit. Okay, okay, it's difficult, it'll do. But! When 30 impossible broken units come at you... I feel sad about that.
Is that new thing in the swamp released?
even for conquering a FOrt. just dig a trench and you can easily farm all mobs and go inside and kill spawner with bonemass
and even with Ashlands Gear its still hard in Ashlands unlike any other biome in my experience.
That is, the game forces you to use tricks, instead of, as before, taking a location with your mind, weapon skill, armor level, Idk
To your point, the devs have now tweaked spawn rates. And, I'll admit, Ashlands at night has the tendency to allow you to defecate through a secondary hole. Also, exploration in Valheim has never felt so grindy until Ashlands... I'm starting to think you're right. Ashlands is horrible. On the plus side, though: at least (as of today) your grausten roof pieces don't have a gap at their top, now.
dunno if you can call digging a trench is a trick. It was ver ycommon to use trenches to make a border.
but surely Ashlands is a motivation killer if you read through social media
sees all the people literally playing solo and managing to finish the biome
Yeah, totally impossible...
I agree, I personally found it incredibly interesting to visit this location. I sincerely admire this game, but what I saw at Ashlands just killed me mentally...
So no, the biome is not "impossible"
If it was, then no one would've finished, and plenty of people already have
😔 🥺
It has always been a brutal game, if you use the same strategies you used before, you will fail.
Think and act differently and use everything you have at your disposal
I found the Ashlands were really hard at first. Once I started forging and upgrading and using late Ashland-level gear, now it’s a breeze.
I had the same problem when I first entered Mistlands. A lot of people experience that feeling when they first enter Swamp.
You will need upgraded gear from that biome in order to feel satisfactory for that biome
Bro I can finish it. I made the mobs damage 0.2, they don't do any damage to me. But I don’t want to go through it like that) But There’s no other way😂
Yep, me too. I can appreciate the game concept that progressing through purgatory becomes more difficult as you go, but there are surely more compelling ways to achieve that than just increasing the spawn rate and making more of the environment hurt you.
There is...
Use magic, enchant flametal weapons, use aoe weapons...
Are you really assuming that literally every one that already finished the biome cheated?
To be fair I had that feeling the first time I entered the black forest. I was bullied by skellies and ghosts in the burial chambers, trolls roflstomped me over and over and I had no idea why greys never stopped coming at me near those whispering glowy things.
No guys. Black forest, plains, swamp, All of this is of course difficult at first. But if you have at least a little upgraded armor from the previous lock (and weapons), you can beat it.
Who are you to quantify someone else's experience?
I do have to admit, I thought I could ignore Eitr use and just skip magic entirely, but would up needing to include it into my play in order to make things a bit easier. But I’ve seen people do Ashlands all melee, though it is much harder
I mean, you don't even seem capable of using the reply function.
You can also manipulate enemies in this biome. They will damage each other.
Was a new structure added to the Swamp?
Trying to makes sense of the development vlog
no he isnt
So can we expect to see deep north news coming in 2025 at least?
Confusing- I guess they mean it as a sneak peek to something coming to the swamp later on
There was this 'Swamp Thing' that introduced The Grid... (YouTube those four words, I'm not serious).
I would say so
Ashlands is 100% more difficult with Same Biome Gear still.
I rlly hopes that update will be out in early 2026
So the biome is impossible?
Then I suppose all those people that have finished the biome must've spawned fader's trophy then
Even the ones that did it when the biome was worse
I didnt agree with impossible. I said its even with Ashlands Gear a lot rougher than Mistlands with MistlandsGear
There was a version of Ashlands before the Ashlands update? Like we already have something up the North, but it's not really the Deep North yet
Would be interesting to see how many completed Ashlands without any cheese/cheats/mods compared to how many completed it 100% pure.
Staff of the Wild and Thundering Nihogg or Thundering Berserker Axes or the Klossen all make things sooo much easier. Also making the Gemstone Cutter for the Black Forge and fully upgrading everything makes it sooo much easier.
Using everything at your disposal is also extremely important and people overlook this. I can’t tell you how many people I find who are not using the best food. Who do not use meads at all. Etc
Tips for New-to-Ashlands players:
- Don't go anywhere without materials enough to drop a portal at the first place that seems safe.
- Don't go out at night. The spawn rates might have been "tweaked" today, but they're rough, even in daytime.
- Take a whole bunch of fire resistance potions with you.
- If you see steam coming off your body, move away from the lava.
- Invest in Smoke Bombs. They help.
do you know why is that?
because there wasnt the need to learn making yourself Best in Slot. Until Ashlands.
I didnt know there was a lot of people that didnt play fully vanilla. I just reached AshLands and got my first batch of that new metal, will be crafting that ram soon and checking whats inside that fortress on fully vanilla
That is worrying, I really dislike the magic bits and try to ignore them completely. If they are straight up necessary then I'll be sad
how can i remove a rune stone, including commands
Also, please, take at least 2 Irons with you. It'll make things easier
You have Level 3 Ashlands armor? Fully leveled Staff of the Wild? Fully leveled Staff of Protection? Fully leveled Thundering Nihogg? Using the 3 top tier foods, and you’re not coasting thru Ashlands in a magic bubble just destroying mobs?
Mage is Max Dps with least risk because range.
Always the cowardly wizards cowering in the background while the real warriors bleed
didnt try hybrid mage yet
Also... Wear. Sunscreen.
You don't bleed in Ashlands; wounds are immediately cauterised.
Hehe swap "bleed" for "die" instead 😄 I think there was a line like that in Starship Troopers iirc. Navy vs Infantry that time, but same sentiment
I use max level Ask armor, Feather cape, barley wine to counter fire, I eat Piquant Pie, Roast crust Pie, and Marinated Greens. Pop my protection bubble, and just hold my staff of the wild at the ready. Go to Ashlands and just start wrecking. If combat ramps up, I use lingering stam potion and lingering eitr potion. I keep Bonemass power at the ready. If I re-cast my protect bubble, then I pop Major Healing potion to recover … it is a really good setup. When eitr is low, I pull out the thundering nihogg and flametal shield
I am mostly sprinting and jumpcasting
Not really ever taking many hits except some tanged shots that my bubble deflects
yes. and you 100% didnt need this BiS Playstyle before Ashlands.
thats why Ashlands is even with Ashlands gear harder than Mistlands with mistlands gear.
Well before Ashlands there was no Ask set and no staff of the wild lol so no I did not use them before Ashlands
ashlands is the only biome where combat may require a second braincell... aye
I also did not use Carapace Armor before Mistlands or use Blackmetal swird before Plains etc etc etc
frostner's attributes happened to align very well with the biome, thats all
Yeah and people could argue the Frostner is overpowered compared to everything else in the game
mistwalker is frostner 2.0 xd
My first braincell was maintaining my heart, lungs, and digestive processes. Once I got a second one I devoted it to the motor skills required for masturbation. Are you now telling me I need to decide between game progression and oxytocin?
game progression creates oxytocin. There! you can have both. 🙂
with all the drama around Ashlands, I'm glad I'm just getting to the tail end of Mistlands, and can experience Ashlands for the first time, post patch.
what are some great mods to make dedicated servers more fun and engaging?
idk, jack up the world mods and valheim+?
Frostner does the same frost and more spirit damage than the mistwalker, at significantly less stamina cost. They are both great, but the Frostner is much more overtuned than the Mistwalker IMO.
Video games produce dopamine. Definitely not the same thing as oxytocin.
bideo games produce colored light. your body produces both dopamine and oxytocin
#mods-discussion for that
mistwalker is a straight upgrade to frostner, but frostner is more overpowered relative to its biome
(spirit dmg is mostly whatever in those 3 biomes)
Pendantry doesn't make you any more correct. You know what I meant.
i was trying to make fun of your pedantry, lol
it doesn't really matter that much in the end, if people are happy playing the game
It is, it's got a good amount of base slash damage but it's only about double what Frostner does in blunt. It's also 2 biomes later. Spirit is mostly whatever, but my point is that the Frostner punches above it's weight class more than the Mistwalker does, even if the Mistwalker is effectively an upgrade to the same "slot" as the Frostner holds.
we are in agreement on that xd
busted ass weapon that hammer
Frostner is great, but Mistwalker is the vehicle by which we transport 450 "weight" of items through Mistlands. And, thankfully, while also providing an effective weapon.
mistwalker is also better for bursting down enemies courtesy of less knockback
i was underwelmed by Mistwalker, initially. Coming straight from Frostner. But it's grown on me.
thing is; the two weapons have similar stat-lines, but they play very differently
frostner is a cc monster, mistwalker a dps one
yeah, and i got very used to the high knockback CC abilities, and played with that.
Mistwalker gets better once you are able to upgrade Black Forge to level 4 and 5
i hope we get mjolner with the deep north
it should weigh 301 pounds xd
Mistwalker gets better with better food, it empties your stamina when you first get it
i'm capped at level 3 Mistwalker, pre-Ashlands. level 4 requires Ashlands
hm, blunt dmg type is technically pretty solid in the ashlands...
Yeah so it will get better. Level 4 Mistwalker is a good Ashland weapon for quite a little while
yeah, totally. hell, i've considered 2 stam + 1 health food occasionally
you mean everywhere?
true, lul
Is it? i've been using that fire staff instead of the new one I unlocked
Didnt find any use for the Fracturing one
I don't know for sure, but it wouldn't surprise me if there were weapon options that were intended to be more useful in multiplayer than in solo.
now i'm imagining a demolisher user paired up with a mage, just smashing the ground anytime something gets close lol
the fire staff is in part so good because half it's damage is blunt
my primary use of fracturing staff is a wall ornament
Half of the staff of fracturing's damage is blunt too
yeah, but it's just completely sub-par in relation to the ember staff
All of the staves are blunt enough to tell y'all that you've not studied enough to be commenting so confidently
Yeah, same as me.
I read a user comment one time that during public testing, the staff of fracturing used to be good and useful and better than the ember staff. But then right before Ashlands release, evidently something got tweaked (either mistakenly or purposely) but something got tweaked and the staff of fracturing was all of a sudden very nerfed and then the patch went full release like the next week. But I have read that the staff of fracturing used to be good before at one time during one of the patch tests
That seems like the kind of thing that would be useful in the PTR. Wow! It's like the kind of people that participate in a PTR are more interested in personal advancement than game development. I'm shocked!
it's not the first time I've brought it up
I don't have access to that link. Read into that what you will.
its the channel of the public test branch -- the exact channel you are insinuating I should have (and literally did) put my feedback in
I'm sorry you were in the minority then. Your idea seemed reasonable.
will they add more biomes after mistlands or any dlcs at all that you guys are aware of?
after mistlands?
ashlands is litterally after mistlands
deepnorth is litteraly after ashlands
after deepnorth I meant
deepnorth is the last planned biome
I just got back in the game a few days ago so I'm not sure what order the biomes were released
I see..I figured they would add biomes that are in a way "off the map"
First five biomes + mist lands + ashlands
like dungeons or other realms
Secret ocean biome would be nice 💀
or places where you'd have to take some sort of "bifrost" to get to
What about new swamp hub is there any info about it ?
Let’s see what they bring
are there purely pvp servers out there? with structures built?
Yeah I'm surprised they didn't use the 9 reams of Norse mythology
they still could
Drahkaar and Ninebyte have one.
lore wise valheim was one of them until it was severed
are ppl in those servers vanilla or do they have ppl who hacked their own character skill levels with vanilla players all mixed?
i feel like itd be weird if they introduced the other realms
they make a point of valheim being cast from the rest
Indeed, it would go against the entire lore of the game.
they could introduce them as "dungeon" maybe a quest system to be completed within each realm
That literally makes no sense.
i feel like you could do that with the already existing biomes
I mean I feel they already have Helheim, Jotunheim, and Midgard, and Vanaheim?
Our whole existence is to stop Valheim being reconnected to Yggdrasil.
what if after you beat the game you become some sort of demi god able to traverse the 9 realms and you set on a mission to conquer them all?
"after you beat the game" -- surely it would be another game at that point?
they could make it work...doesn't have to be that exactly but it would just be an excuse to explore quest systems and add more content
Deep North is the final biome.
make that only available after beating all of valheims bosses
it just seems kind of convoluted for the sake of adding the other realms
personally i dont really feel like they need to be added
a bifrost would appear and Odin would come down and the game would introduce you to the new content
Only without mods, and on hard mode?
They're not going to add content for only one difficulty level, come on.
haven't tried it yet so
they would obviously have to cater to all levels
the quests you'd do would have to be off world so you can't use devcommands
don't get me wrong I like how the quests are setup on vanilla
At this point #mods-discussion seems the place for this conversation.
and how it's more like a elden ring/dark souls approach to the lore
yea but the conversation is happening here
I've noticed...
Good for you!
what's being tuned?
They've slightly changed the flametal drops and changed the chance at which they sink.
Does the new version auto-heal worlds affected by the netobject corruption?
I don't.
sometimes the soil doesn't need any more fertilizer
deep north is kinda niflheim already
ashlands is sorta musplheim
I love that expression.
quite proud of it myself 😊
@sharp bluffI have only seen Meadous, Dark Forest, Plains, Swamp, Snow areas in the montains so far
I'm guessing those biomes are more to the corners of the map
ashlands is the very south and a lava area, deep north is very north and very cold
About to begin a hardcore run, with the goal of beating the game without dying once by being very careful and methodical.
Any advice?
I wonder if they intended to do treasure maps in a similar way to how they do them in Minecraft with shipwrecks
that would drive me to drinking
I died to the first boar I came across...🤣
how...
You need the style of the boar to defeat the boar
just wait until you meet 2 star warrior bugs 😄
maybe hardcore mode isn't for you.
first troll will ratio him xd
ive had this game for a few years now and am just now playing it i like it
welcome then.
I think the farest I can go without dying is the swamps
hm, if you can get some lucky abomination spawns at the edge its not THAT bad
my first death this playthrough (my second after a long long break), was in the Frost Caves, severely under geared. cultist got the drop on me. Still was using bronze weapons and troll armor. i think my second death was fallnig off a ladder lol
that was asking for a quick death xd
hunt even would have ended you sooner or later anyway tho
i hadn't beaten Bonemass yet. I was just exploring. i didn't even have a way to avoid cold damage in the mountains yet haha
that was asking for an even quicker death
i did end up getting fenris chest very quickly however, was my first source of cold resist
i'd rather stab the 10 wolves
well, i got a bunch of 1-stars patrolling my base now
no 2-star in sight
a 1star army is damn good however
i take a small group of them with me in the Plains sometimes. only the berserkers and growths wreck them
growths really
eh, they are good enough as base defense (and food source)
yep. i just had a group of them at my plains farm, and like to take them out sometimes. they need their exercise
i have a tiny spot in my base where enemies can spawn
my wolf feeder is there
there's only a single wolf left from my group that killed Yagluth, sadly. he looks so lonely on the island by himself
You can do that.
re: news - I think the swamp thing might be rain-preventer? Like what the shield generator does for raining fire in Ashlands.
found a room with 4 surtlin cores 😄
Find a fire spout and you'll be overflowing with surtling cores
You know the shield gen already blocks rain too + other weather 😛
yeah not in swamp yet sadly 😄
I did not know that
Glad to assist

I really hate the general fog in this game.
Wait until you go to mistlands =/
yeah but you can fight that fog with lights
fog x 1000
just sitting in your boat waiting for the fog to clear is bad gameplay design imo
Remind me, what's the smallest rotational angle (for building pieces like wooden floor files)?
is it 22.5?
360/16 = 22.5, yes
Thanks.
you can fight it, but you'll never truly win
Does increasing the level of the Staff of the Wild also increase the damage dealt by the roots? Or does it just increase the shot?
when the hell do i get a pickaxe
did you kill the first boss?
lol, I remember overpreparing quite a bit for eikthyr
he's not as difficult as he looks
It’s best to overprepare so you don’t die in an early greydwarf raid
but yeah, in general its better to overprepare than under
I’d recommend a level 3 wood shield or wood tower shield, level 3 flint weapon, full level 1 leather armor, deer meat, honey and either boar meat or raspberries.
leather armor okay. i dont know how to get that but ok ill find out soon
i like the progression so far
Kill some deer, get a ranged weapon or sneak
You need to make a workbench improvement to unlock the recipe
yeah, progression is pretty good in this game, always something new to learn, always patterns of stuff that you can learn and build upon
crude bow (and raft) are primitive gear that are particularly underwhelming though, so I'd recommend throwing a spear instead if you're determined to hunt deer
Can animals breed when you have free building mode?
It doesn't seem like my pigs are breeding
How many are there?
2
If they’re both well fed and close to each other they should be able to breed
never thought about putting benches inside of rock to protect them
oh i see i heave a bow
hmm
Whats the deal with Fishing? I am running up and down the meadows coast, and cant find a SINGLE fish, yet my son can go out and catch 20 in one day
What point are you in the game?
On current server, havent killed Elder yet 😛
Try make troll bait and catch troll fish or go out on a boat and fish
I tried on a boat, and kept the speed to one, but when you turn the speed off, you glide past the fish 😂
Damn
Skill issue on my behalf 😉
I always enjoyed just taking a Karve out and choose a night and go fishing. Lol it's always kind if relaxing to me.
You fishing for Serpents? 😂
witch huts incoming?
"Its not taking the bait" I assume theres different bait for different fish then?
What fish are you trying for?
Well, I saw a Pufferfish, but he didnt want basic bait. So I killed a Serpent, and am back in meadows scouting for fish
its my first time in the mountains, im terrified XD
Its only scary at night 😄
Pufferfish like... misty fishing bait
Which is 20 regular bait and a Lox trophy
Have fun
yeah, pufferfish bait is somewhat lategame-ish,
Yeah try troll fish which is 20 Bait and a troll trophy at a cauldron
Yeah i made some of that, it only works in BF tho i assume, reading its text
So I'd still need Normal Bait for meadows?
@rotund dust https://youtu.be/scuMc20PONo?si=WYfdaC4AkSWBC5F6
Thanks, but i'll just ask here as needed, that will kill every type of fish / bait 😂
Then the magic of fishing wouldbe lost lol
Yes
Lololol I mean, that and puffer and coral. Lol but those serpents sure do love a good chase. 🤣
what are the chances. i was mid fight with a fallen valk. and after running in cirlces the valk killed a bunch of other enemies. then like clock work. a 1 star morgan spawns out of the ground wtf!
i died
portal was destroyed somehow
Probably by the Morgen. It happens. It REALLY sucks. We've had that a few times.
Morgan's = best way to mine grausten early on
hmmm... i might actually have enough eitr stockpiled. oh no, i may have to think about the queen soon
Took me and my mate 3 attempts to kill the queen. First 2 times she left her lair and ran of into the open world. Never saw her again 🤣
if you die and cant find her, she is usually up at the top of the massive chamber
That wasn’t the issue.
She left the dungeon. We followed her out and saw her run away into the distance
lol that's crazy. She's all like "I'm free! Screw this place1"
Pretty much yes. We were scared she was gonna run for our base and demolish it or something 🤣
i guess i need another 105 if i want to make and max Himminafl. so i can keep looking for tissue for a while longer and not feel like i'm delaying things...
I need to go out and stab everything I can find, need them knife skills up since I’ve been sleeping on knives the entire time
i was using knives for a while. its great that they don't reduce movement at all
Skoll and hoti has renewed my hype a bit. Very fun playstyle
you can cast your line then control the boat ( drag fishing) 😉
Hati * 😅
Sneaking and landing the secondary attack with surprise is awesome.
Yeah. Fighting is so fast and smooth too. Love it
Looking for a super hardcore map seed. Any ideas?
anyone here like to build their character like an assassin?
just do a no map no portal. makes any seed hardcore af
Sounds fkn horrible
Its actually alot of fun
True, no portal is nightmare. I am always playing with no map
once valhiem is completed i ll prob do a no portal/map run
Sincerely doubt it. Sounds like the exact opposite
But we’re all different 😂
you just gotta play it super safe. and i d also play on 2x resources
everything else normal
Permadeath, No Map, No Portal was the best way to play before Ashlands
Hard pass on that
perma death is no fun
Just dont die
No map should be the intended way of playing imo.
My suggestion in playing no map is to get the cartographer table mod. It allows you to open the map while accessing the table
Goodnight guys
Thats not playing No Map 😂
no map unless you carry the cartographer table sounds decent
if you also play no portale
That’s exactly the idea
huh. i'm addicted to the demolisher. did i just stagger lock this seeker soldier? hmmm
started ashland with 45 elemental and 35 blood. now after conquering my first fortress. i am down to 25 elemental and 15 blood very sadge
shouldnt take long to train it up to 40 again. except blood. its slow
Lmfao you say that until you start building. Lololol
i would not build anything permanent in no portal/map. prob use my boat as home
That be fun if the boats could carry all the crafting tables without mods.
Ive never installed a mod, never will.
same. for the time being.
Yeah I love the gear slot mod. It's so forgiving on space.
half my inventory is gear/weapons/tools. got like 10 slots lol
I did wonder why equipment took space in bag tho
its hoesntly not a problem til ashlands
Your weapons/shields sure, but armors, eh, they are on you.
I mean for what it is, you have to hand it to Iron Gate for all their hard workm though I do believe a better inventory space control is needed.
Surprised their wasnt a backpack upgrade along the way, for an extra row of items
I don't mind a few portals along the way and a humble abode. Though I normally don't place a permanent place until I find a Mistlands/Plains/Blackforest trio to build on.
I.e. a perfect place to build a farmstead.
for no portal/map?
There is a mod that does that, but yeah I agree.
Yes. I have a pretty good sense of direction so no map doesn't bother me. Even no portals bother me.
Ughh, I said that last bit funny. 🙄
Some QOL mods really a game changer.
Hit me up if you are starting new and don’t mind to play co op 😊
forsure. but most likely will be moving on to other things once my current playthrough is over :c
No pressure, if only if you are starting new and prefer to play with somebody 😁
Agreed, hit me up also if yall need another.
You killed them once, you can kill them again
i mean i cheesed them pretty hard in the boss room im more worried about them absolutely wrecking my base
What level is your gear?
fenris, frostner and draugr fang all lvl 4
Shoot from afar, when sheild goes up go in for the bash then start shooting again
you are quick enough to outrun them
I think they are not gonna raid you until you bring their chest to hildir
no they raid as soon as u pick up the chest off the floor apparently
thats what i thought at first
Hmm good to know, I have been lucky then
should I just drag all the zerkers and mini boss away once the raid starts
kinda worried the mobs are gonna split and just start breaking things
turn down raid rates
I think this is only the case if you're server has enabled player-based raids. With standard settings you should need to return the chest to hildir. (that or the wiki is wrong)
ur probably correct i noticed a lot of people that said the raids starting happening after they killed the mini boss were in multiplayer worlds
i think im gonna opt to learn how to do some defesnive base building like a moat could be fun
true
A moat or a tall ground wall completely makes all raids a non issue except for flying ones.
And I heard ballistas are crap but never tried them myself
what do u guys think about arbalest? trying to do an assassin build this playthrough and this is really the furthest ive got because on all my other worlds my buds drop out before the mountain biome.
I dont understand the last part. What is your Problem exactly?
Arbalest is a great weapon for Plains and Mistlands.
im just saying never got the chance to use the weapons past plains because ive never gotten far
so no clue if arbalest is good but that answers my question
Definitely good as a surprise attack sniper, you can one shot things sometimes. You only get one in Mistlands onwards but they are really good against the mobs there. You just need to keep your skill up. In Ashlands they are less great as most of the monsters there are resistant to pierce and sadly there’s no elemental bolts.
New player here is the bronze pick axe worth it? Currently gearing up for elder farming using the antler pickaxe
Yes you should get it or you could skip but mining would be harder
well i mean, you dont ahve to repair the bronze pickaxe as much but it needsa forge to be repaired while the antler pickaxe needs more repairs but can be done at a workbench
Does increasing the level of the Staff of the Wild also increase the damage dealt by the roots? Or does it just increase the shot?
Morgen gjall.
it seems to increase the damage and i'm pretty sure it increases the speed of the swing too. don't have hard data on the swing speed so may be imagining things.
Wiki has this to say: https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Root_(Staff_of_the_Wild)
Unfortunately the wiki doesn't say anything. I don't want to waste the jade
The wiki makes it look like the roots stay the same under 0star you can see the damage of it.
If you are up for some testing you could go into a test world, console command in a staff of growth, console in some mob and cast close to it and see how many hits it takes for it to die.
Upgrade staff to max and do the same, test it a few times each level to see and that way you can check if it does more damage or not.
@near furnace Do you know if root damage from staff of the wild get more damage from higher level staff?
oh um
I tested that out before but I forgot 😅
I think the roots damage was static, but the poison ball explosion when it lands gets higher 🤔
but don't quote me on that 😄
The projectile damage increases by 40 (20 blunt and poison) for each upgrade
Thanks for the info guys, building my karve shortly to sail to the elder!! Viking theme music playing in the back ground as we sail accross the lands to conquer him!!!
skol
Hello everyone, in the latest news the developers said that something new has appeared in the swamps, is this in the already released update or will it be in the Autumn?
Still brewing, when it will be done, no one knows.
I am soooo curious for the new stuff .. .it is neigh unbearable 😄
They said it will be released in autumn. The recent update had balance changes and bug fixes for ashlands.
Yes, that's right, they just translated it incorrectly into my language
I'd like more reliable summons
Or a buff for the ones we have
In hardest difficulty, the regular ashlands mobs destroy the toughest summon
that sounds almost like it was suposed to be hard on the hardest difficulty 🤔
Just got launched into the lava by a fallen valkyrie :')
Getting that back is a pita.
Yeah, I wonder if a hoe will help 
Though a little tip, basic wood works just as well as stone. As it is temporary and cheaper. Just be quick ad it can catch fire.
Not sure on the hoe, didn't try that method. Let me know of it works.
hoe will just raise the lava with the ground
basalt bombs
Should've thought about that but I managed to get them with wood build pieces
if its on the edge its not a problem. iv been launched int he middle of lava :C
If a server says they are slow progression vs fast progression what would your expectations be in terms of how often the players move to the next age?
In my opinion:
Having everything they can have maxed before doing boss versus get the lowest possible and go.
So for bonemass that would be maxed iron mace and either iron armor or root maxed, maybe even the bow and having a good farm running for all the foods.
Compared to lvl 1 mace and mix and match of armor with the swamp food that is easy to get.
or, excpect to wait a week or 2 before each boss because of time issues rather than upgrade based
they set a specfic date/time usually a weekend when everyone can be on. then depends on you how prepared you are.
A maxed out mace would shred him to hell, I wanna try that in my game
I made my game the easiest it possibly could be
Is Storm Star and Tower Shield or Thunder Axes better?
Or which upgrade would be better for a flatmetal mace
so for the fish hat, you need to catch all the fish right? do you need stars for them?
Nope just all the fish, size doesn't matter.
Anyone else having server start issues after the update? I did have mods, but even after uninstalling them I am getting a start error
Nopes. No issues at all
Axes
They’re both good for different situations and playstyles
I move forward and i play based on durability
What Valheim plus should I be using at this point, its all a smidge confusing. I seem to remeber there wbeing a server side version and a client side version? I have read that the ValheimPlus by Grantapher is the latest, but I dont see a server version for that.
Just found out that when you're blocking a high enough number of hits, every sound effect of said attack gets silenced and get replaced with blocking sounds.
or maybe my pc is just too potato to register them all.
iF ANY OF YOU ALL SEEING WIZARDS KNOW WHAT i SHOULD DO HERE, PELASE HELP
oh sorry caps. didnt mean to yell 😔
The Klossen (jade mace) is a really good weapon. Maces are normally chosen for their knockback and crowd control ability, which Root ability compliments well. The lightning however is very strong offensively, but it does best with fast attacking weapons like sword or berserker axes. That’s not to say that a lightning mace wouldn’t be good. But mostly I would think the mace lends itself best to the jade and the root, while the sword or berserker axes tend to do better with the lightning.
But lightning is extremely strong offensively and if you want that, but like maces, a lightning mace would still be a good weapon I’m sure
Thanks
Welcome
In terms of fast progressions it depends on world modifiers but i have had a server where we reached ashlands when like some of the players are still in iron or bronze age
For me, when there’s a Patch update, I need to go to my server’s management portal and run a “Steam Update” on the server itself. So that the server is running the newest patch of Valheim
yeah I did that as well and its all pooped out
so gonna reinstall valheim plus from the github
I wouldn't use it at all. Find alternatives that work and are actively developed.
I assume since this is listed as 17 hours ago it should be good eh?
#mods-discussion is probably a place to get better answers.
ohI cant send a screen clipping here
yeah probably, thanks!
Actually while we are on the topic here, any suggestions for mods thatdothe same?
Yes, answer there if you'd like
Reminder that the main channels should be strictly for the vanilla game
We can't give much support or info on modded saves that can have any number of third party issues, especially right after an update
Apologies if I slipped slightly into mini-modding there.
I apologize too. been stressed out with this server not working. Apologies. I will use the proper chats in the future to avoid confusion.
do howling caverns have cultists
:)
You will see 🙂
I don't
need a "you will see" this is my second playthrough
but I haven't payed attention to that
dude I hate the fenris set so much
why did they make the hood have a cultist trophy as a material
several ulv trophies would've been whatever but a CULTIST trophy
Because it's one of the best sets in the game
Just look at the wiki then
a cultist trophy is still annoying as hell though
and I don't really understand how it's one of the best
other than like
the drip I dunno
there's the 6% speed
and some other stuff
light armor shenanigans
truly
It looks cool af so definitely worth the grind
i can't see it, but a good amount of people here like light armor for mobility
I guess but when you have to check 10+ ice caves and still get nothing
Damn I have nuts in my name
it's just actively a nuisance
nutsoleg
oh shoot i think ur right i see nuts in ur name
True, I went through a lot of islands to finally get it
They're leaves
Oh
You never got your flowers 
I thought it was peeenatbutter
interesting peanut butter haha
How can I blossom?
yeah. i think trophies in general are a 5% drop, so u may need to visit multiple islands
I easily find cultist trophies but never enough fenris hair
Wait until Spring?
i was drowning in fenris hair and claws, but i didn't want any of it.
interesting how we have each other's needs 🤣
But like are you guys gonna lose them in autumn?
I've no idea. It's not that deep.
That’s what she said
I don't want to lose my flower 
Compared to?
Trollstav Beststav. Amiright?
heh, you're onto something pal 😏
Have you used it for breaking stuff yet?
dont stir the pot
What are these words?
Its ok derek you dont need to know them ❤️
Filipenos, I think.
yes, filipinos... sorry my friends 🥹 looking for players to help me get through mistlands 🤣
🗣️ 🔥
heh
nah not yet. maybe i'll stumble across some stone forts in the black forest for it to destroy
It's probably the most fun part of it, imo - watching the meteor smack clean into something and then it exploding into a cloud of damage numbers.
When you consider that heavy armor chest and heavy armor pants normally give a -5% EACH, if you switch from heavy armor to Fenris it will feel like a 19% increase. It’s 9% increase compared to naked run
Does anyone know when next steam sale is that Valheim will be on sale? My other friends wanna buy it so we can all play together.
Next Steam sale is projected to be Nov 27 through Dec 4. It has not been disclosed if Valheim will be included, but it often is.
Oh, I see thanks.
I should say next major/seasonal Steam sale, they often have themed ones in-between.
In the meantime @lilac finch, @languid dove, and @vocal thorn, the Steam version of the game is on sale through IGN's Humble Bundle program for the next few days:
https://www.humblebundle.com/store/valheim
This is not an endorsement of that particular retailer. I also don't know which regions are eligible for the purchase, but I would imagine it covers territories Coffee Stain is publisher for.
my money is in my steam wallet. im forced to wait
Unfortunately it's more expensive here due to regional pricing even if on sale.
i would definitely get it if my money wasnt in my wallet. But i cant withdraw
Hello new friends :>
i mostly come for moral support. about 250 hours into the game and i've done everything i can to procrastinate crossing into ashlands waters
today is the day and i need someone to hug me when i die
It will take many hugs then. Best of luck and have fun exploring 🙂
lmao
how to get rid of flies ?
deathsquitos?
They made the game too difficult
Yes
Plains is the 5th biome, how many bosses have you killed?
block the first hit, then apply melee dmg
or use the root chest
Do they disappear at night ?
no
They only have 10 health so your bow should kill them in one hit from a safe distance
Wear the root harnesk, they effectively don't exist with it on
yeah, pierce resist memes them
this si what my husband and i did. root harnesk -> smack with mace
keep them fire resist meads on you tho
some fueling nerd with a torch will come by and ruin your fun ;_;
being in mistlands without any ability to see feels like the indended way to play
having a started seeker jump on top of you and then panicly running forward only to be surrounded by 5 more and backed into a corner slowly chipping away health with no stamina while you serpent shield does its best to prolong the suffering
Best of luck, you got this! My best recommendation is make Portals early and often. Make like several at home with names like 1, 2, 3, 4… or a, b, c, d… and just be ready to have portals for your backup portals etc. last thing you want to do is building a new Drakar from home base. Keep wood on you to quickly build workbench and repair. You got this
finally dying on a small hole, now your grave
bless. i am a portal fiend so this is good news for me! already brought enough for 4 from home haha. I was lucky enough to find the littlest nugget of black forest right on the edge of the ocean just before ashlands ocean to make a little baby base to work out of, so i've got a portal and some supplies there in the event that i die 🤣
well, when i die, i mean
Hah yeah death is intended and inevitable down there. It happens
it do be that way sometimes. i've purposefully tried to avoid spoiling much but its hard to avoid seeing posts on the subreddit about repeated death 😅
Well, that's Reddit for you.
one thing i'm still not sure about is if i should be building a base within ashlands. i spent days gathering materials with the intention of doing so, but with this little black forest bit i'm wondering if i shouldn't just make this my ashlands base, and make trips in and out without planning to stay
i guess i will find out when i finally step foot on the land 😅
thoughts on why cloudberries are described in-game as "gold of the forest"? Plains? Out-dated flavor text? Are plains somehow considered a subset of the Black Forest/Meadows forests?
plains have forests of birch, it could also be just a flowery or poetic description
that's a good point, not to look into it too much, but a lot berry species typically require at least a lone stand to flourish
yep, you'll learn pretty quick, and maybe level up to portal cacodaemon or something 😉
after plains there are 2 more
er wait unless u count oceans and the deep north
meadows, black forest, swamp, mountain, plains, ||mistlands||, ||ashlands||, ocean, deep north
im scared of ashlands i still havent gone its been 2 in-game days
i too am heavily procrastinating getting through mistlands 🙂
Don't forget tonadd signs for destination to help you remember where they are going.
Lolol, I run through the mistlands in silver gear. 🤣 The only thing that really gives me trouble are the 2 star Soldiers
i actually LOOOOVED mistlands, but i'm a huge huge bug lover and thought the whole place was just the coolest
i did, however, find the swamp to be terrifying up until maybe yesterday, lol
tho i still do scream when the wraiths show up
discomfort
i dont like spooky wet skellytons
get urself a lil whisp fren and its fun on a bun!
I'll give you a huuuge hint. Silver arrows. And as far as little skellies. Big hammers make skellies go squish.
fort all skellies or for swamp skellies?
All skellies
📝
Blunt damage is their biggest weakness
lvl frostner better than lvl 3 mistwalker?
I mean I use the frostner still in ashlands....sooo

Lololol and skellies go splat.
You got this!!
||can hugin die? 😱 the ocean waves threw my boat into one of the spikes that he was on and it smooshed him 😭 he hasnt come back aaaa||
maybe what he was gonna say was bound to that location, so he'd only come back if you were to go there (or areas of the same kind) again
(he can't die, thankfully)
i died lmao
ok good maybe i can see what he has to say later lmao
oh god the bugs and bug sounds squick me out. i heavily enjoy smashing them with the demolisher
the bug sounds are horrible and i love it. if you can get into a spot to listen to the passive sounds you can hear them scream and moan like humans. it reminds me of that scene in Annihilation with the bear, if you know what i'm talking about
magnificent sound design
WHAT IS A BONEMAW aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAA
Was anyone else excited to use trollstav, thinking that it'll summon a troll, sounds awesome, finally a minion that is going to be effective
And it summons a giant psychopath on fire that beats you to death
Because this is valheim
😭
never had this happen to me; I've found them to be incredibly effective
How many people tried it in their base?
it's one of the very few enemies that are actually weak to cold damage
It was funny to see
after i dropped a bunch of tiny stacks of refined etir in my base and died like a heckin goober i dont do anything new in my base anymore
But I would have liked a big friendly troll
How many of you, decide right, today I'm going to do x on my world, for me it was beat the Elder on my new seed, and then procedes, to build a dock, explore an island, this and that, and never even touch Elder 😂
hmm i think thats how most of my days are. either i decide or my husband decides "we need to do x today in order to achieve x goal"
Yeah but none of what i did was to achieve my goal, just so easily distracted in this world, i love it
I'm going to punch out Eikthyr without armor or food buffs
Or leveling fists.
Just to say I did it as a personal achievement.
No food buff for stam?
haha mood. well, his goals are usually armor and weapon oriented, and will lead us to resource gathering for specific things. my goals are usually less direct like "well, if we're gonna try to do x today or tomorrow, i need to make x amount of x food" or "i need to prepare us with x amount of x meads" which turns into a whole rabbit hole of "i need to make x cauldron upgrade, x crafting table" etc which leads to "we dont have enough space for that, so i should make an expansion for our base in x area, needing x materials"
or if im waiting on him to move forward in terms of biome advancement or whatever i'll find new goals like trying to map out our word, find or grow seeds and foods, or just decorate our home
The way you describe that, is exactly the same as my daughter and I playing. I want weapon upgrades focus, she ends up doing everything required 😂
🤣
I'll see if I don't need it. I'm more worried about having just 21 health.
do u guys think im ready for yagluth with fenris set, frostner, dragur fang, black metal shield all lvl 4 and a bunch of frost arrows/healing meads? Id post a screenshot but it literally wont let me
#valheim-help can have images, and yes you seem ready
ok ty that makes sense
Don’t worry about arrows, he’s pierce resistant and even with elemental arrows you do too much pierce
yeah i wasnt planning on using frost arrows for most the fight just there as a precautionary measure
was planning to get up in his face with frostner but im a bit worried hes gonna nuke me since im wearing fenris
Keep an eye on your fire damage/tick if you get inside his aoe. When he uses his meteors, instead of running you can just walk back and block because you don’t want to get too far away from him or you won’t have time to attack.
ok ty i jsut really wanna rush to mistlands because all the gear i wanna try out is there
Yagluth reminds me of Godzilla for some reason.
maybe its because he shoots a beam like godzilla
im excited to craft mistwalker, skoll and hati and an arbalest for the first time
I haven’t made skoll and hati before, but it’s not too late to start using knives in my current world, I want to give them a try too
it looks like if you parry its a pretty fun and viable weapon all around
obviously not as good as mistwalker but seems super fun
its really annoying that all the stuff i want to craft needs iron still. Feels like everything in this game needs iron
With your frostner iron shouldn’t be a problem.
Iron is easy to get with a frostner
is there some strat i dont know about ?
It’s good at killing enemies in the swamp because of its damage types
do other mobs drop iron scrap other than the oozers?
i dont think so
dang i just went to the ashlands post update and i only got 50ft away from my portal again before i had to fight every mob in the zone for an entire day then had to go back home because it was almost night time.
No, but oozers are too rare and not a reliable source. You can use a wishbone to find small iron scrap piles buried in swamps.
well, not really a drop but iirc there is a chance to get iron scrap when fishing
Finding new crypts in new swamps is the best thing to do for iron in the second half of the game
Man, I'd never even think of getting iron anywhere other than crypts. It's not worth the hassle.
the mistlands armor pieces are a good alternative source when you need a few bits in mistlands, but for lots of iron the crypts win everytime 🙂
guess ill have to do lots of sailing 😔
You don’t need much iron in mistlands unless you make everything that needs it, 2-3 crypts should be enough, maybe even one if you’re lucky
i would need 182 scrap at the minimum to upgrade all my stuff
not terrible just a bit inconvienient
What is all your stuff?
thats around 2-3 good crypts 🙂
mistwalker, skoll and hati and arbalest
You do not need to upgrade everything to the max. In any biome.
You can’t get level 4 for those until ashlands
true
And level 2 is enough, that was the max before hildir’s update
well i think im gonna do yagluth now 🙂
askvin attacked on the rock in the middle of the lava lake. I stopped it with the tower shield but a crack opened in the middle of the rock. We swim in 3 viking lava lakes 🗿
was pretty easy fenris armor felt good for the fight
Can chickens now eat vineberry seeds? Haven't seen any info on it. I have so many vineberry seeds 😭
go try it 😄
it didnt seem like the chickens were eating my vineberry seeds either. I figured maybe because chickens were programmed before vineberries existed? not sure but I have 200 vineberry seeds and all the new ones are stacking up in the demolisher
Dag nabbit.
A girl can hope 😭
oh, i didnt know if they do or not 😄 i was kinda hoping you would go try it and report back here xD
Wiki is still lacking on Ashlands info. When it first dropped, the chickens wouldn't eat them so I hoped this latest patch might have changed it. lesigh
I'll try to remember to check in with results the next time I'm on.
The Wiki is accurate in saying they don't. What is it lacking?
🤷♂️
Tip: "Build a cart to haul heavy goods over long distances". Mhmm. More like "Build a cart that if filled with heavy goods can't get over a pebble". lol
still much better than if you had to haul it over yourself 🙂
At least you can toss loaded carts onto a longboat.
Not really, hauling it myself at least I get somewhere
Unless the ground is COMPLETELY flat, you cannot haul a cart that is completely full of ore
That's what the hoe is for.
I'd have to dig a canyon
If I have to terraform a flat road in order for the cart to roll, I might as well haul all the ore myself and periodically toss it out to refresh stamina
Not as bad carry wood, but Ore, cart is pointless
over short distances yeah, tossing if fine 🙂 over longer distances i will still take a cart
Carts can make for a lot of funny stories lol if you enjoy it rolling down a mountain and breaking over and over lmao. ||my friend and I discovered that it’s better however to overburden oneself, turn on PVP, and have a friend harpoon and drag you lmao||
lol
I’ve transported a cart full of ore on multiple occasions. None of the paths have been perfectly flat. Some had quite significant elevation changes over very short distances. You just need to keep gradients below about 45°.
||thats my favoartive way to transport tons of ores and basically only did that after i obtained the harpoon||
help cant stop using dev commands on my playthroughs.
go into the game settings and turn disable them. Cant use them if theyre not enabled
Random question guys I logged off during sea travel re logged in and I was in the water and drowned, only way to retrieve my stuff is to make another boat and sail out there correct?
disable them?
support is NOT it
Lololol haven't heard that in a long while, from someone born in the south. Lol
There is a way to lower the gradient bt shift clicking the hoe. And gradually letting it fall. You can even figure out how to find a path by doing this so it doesn't drop off immensely.
Yeah, without dev codes yes that is the only way. Which can be time consuming. I've had this happen to me when I have become disconnected from my wifi a few times.
can this darn fog go away, i cant see anything
How can I install beams without them showing on the upper floor? through the floor
You can't.
Well, you can probably free-place them... but it would be a real pain.
