valheim-chat

[keen cliff]

i love that each fortress turns into my indestructable portal base

[trail pelican]

I keep trying to imagine a scenario I'd find it more convenient to break the walls down releasing a sea of death on to me face first, rather than finding a natural spot or building one elevated enough to carpet bomb all the inhabitants and spawners to death from safety, then jumping over the walls to collect the loot, and I've yet to come up with them

[warm sandal]

I do have usually one base in the forest with full storage for everything one box or a half a box...and when i get to build my new base in the plains I will have my wall fo chests there too and all that is overflowing goes to the forest base... but usually it is not overflowing because i stop picking up what i do have in plenty already

[trail pelican]

siege weapons make excellent mining equipment though

[rotund parrot]

Easy, using the battering ram on the walls, it break the bottom part, enemy inside are too tall to go through so they just stand there and die to the demolisher

[warm sandal]

I leave that crops in the field for instance and have one box for carrots, turnips and onion... then one for the barley flour and later one for the two mushrooms in the mist... has always sufficed to keep me fed

[trail pelican]

oh that's hilarious, now I have to try it

[warm sandal]

ugh...timee to take the antibiotics and then learn some japanese... not looking forward to the nausea

[rotund parrot]

Just need to be careful not to break too many parts of the wall, check after every hit, you should see all their feet at one point

[trail pelican]

lol "we've dug too deep!'

[keen cliff]

ditto. it makes no sense to me to knock down the gate

[old flint]

Just found my best fortress so far: bloodgem, jade, 1500 coins, 63 flametal ore..

[rotund parrot]

You kind of get swarmed if you open the gate and the worst thing is after you take out everything the ram can only get through if you perfectly line it up

[keen cliff]

but you don't need to break the wall at all to hit them with demolisher. it goes through the wall itself

[tacit crystal]

Now you can afford an Egg from Haldor!

[trail pelican]

chickens literally laying their weight in gold

[rotund parrot]

true, walls have 2 layers though so the same thing can be done if you just break one layer but then you can easily get the ram through after

[old flint]

yeah. College student meal irl and in valheim. Prices dont seem to change!

[gray sand]

Break the walls because they have spikes in them, and every enemy walking through to fight you takes damage from said spikes.

[keen cliff]

i guess i was more thinking of using the demolisher at the gate. i think that's just 1 layer

[rotund parrot]

They don't seem to gather up in front as much as they do agaisn't the wall you are breaking

[keen cliff]

with how much bronze you can get from a fortress, it's sad there isn't much use for it

[rotund parrot]

Dvergr metal walls are probably one of my favorite building pieces

Nvm it's copper

[trail pelican]

the lanterns that look so nice

[keen cliff]

yep, it's copper

[warm sandal]

might be we get some use in deep north again...

or you could decorate your walls with bronze buckler all over 😄

[thorny ingot]

Love the lanterns.

[keen cliff]

i was just looking at copper yesterday, because i demo'd an entire dverger tower. you get a lot of scrap copper from it

[gray sand]

Dverger Lanterns

[keen cliff]

i think i got 3 stacks of copper

[keen cliff]

i think that's copper

[gray sand]

2 Bronze, 1 Surtling, 1 Crystal

[keen cliff]

ohhhhhh

the lanterns. got it. I haven't made them because i have a chest full of ones i just steal from the little guys

[old flint]

No way I have missed theres a new bow in ashlands

[keen cliff]

that's something at least.

[old flint]

im pissed

[gray sand]

Valheim's comic book hero: The Bronze Lantern

[thorny ingot]

In the past month I was on a flametal spire mining and trophy hunting jag (plains and mountains) as well as clearing out crypts near my bog witch location. As a result, I have chests full to near capacity of all of those metals and I actually need to go on a copper/tin run. 😄

[keen cliff]

i'm probably going to play around with the dverger metal walls a bunch, since i have this excess copper now

[merry pebble]

Lets start VCU Valheim Cinematic Universe 😄

[rotund parrot]

There might even be 4

[old flint]

Yeah I was kind of wondering that elemental bows would be cool but happened to miss ashfang untill today

[gray sand]

Bronze Lantern 🎃
Drakeman 🦇
The Fenris ⚡
Lore Woman 🛡️
Debugman 🦸

Oh come on, that was good...

[keen cliff]

it was alright. certainly a good attempt

[old flint]

Trying out these new elemental weapons now

[keen cliff]

i think the first 3 were pretty good, and then it fell off

[gray sand]

Melee -> Blue or Red
Ranged -> Green or Red

[old flint]

I seem to have been lucky with my choices

[gray sand]

Name something more "superman" than enabling debug mode?

[keen cliff]

yeah, i get it. maybe the last two being more meta didn't resonate as much as the first 3

The Fenris was a+

[warm sandal]

gonna go now... hit the hay... good night all don't let the twitchers kill you!

[rotund dust]

Is there anything in Mistlands, that drops Black Metal that can be destroyed/via attained?

I am balls deep, and need to get more Sap Extractors up, but that requires a 30 min boat ride 😂

[tacit crystal]

No

[keen cliff]

no, i don't think so. but in my experieince plains are usually close by

[rotund dust]

Im on the outskirts of the world, where my queen is, no plains ANYWHERE near me it seems

[keen cliff]

i've been lucky with mistlands bordering plains

ah, bummer

[rotund parrot]

Did you go to the ashlands yet?

[old flint]

same, giant islands 50/50 mistlands and plains

[rotund dust]

On my solo world, no.

Oh well, today is set up SAp Extractors around the place, delaying queen another day 😂

[rotund parrot]

Then if there's no plains around you only have 2 options, sailing those extractor or bringing metal there

[old flint]

any usage for charred bones

[rotund parrot]

arrows

[rotund dust]

Yeah, ill do that, i was hoping, that something magically had appeared, that i had missed in an update that allowed it to somehow be obtained from destroying a dverger item 😛

But that was but a dream

[rotund parrot]

Worth a shot, there's way to get many of the other metals after all

[keen cliff]

charred bones can also be used for shield generators, but arrows are higher value

[rotund dust]

Also, without any ashlands spoilers, when playing in the mistlands, if i get blood magic up, can i raise more than skeletons?

[keen cliff]

there are other uses for blood magic skill

[azure yacht]

Has anyone made a tame farm with ballistae? I've only seen people building them but slaughtering the animals manually despite ballistae being fairly automated seems obvious

[rotund dust]

I figured in Ashlands would be more, but my server with the kids, we havent unlocked everything there yet

[merry pebble]

The ammount of skeletons you can summon is tied to lvl of the dead raiser

[rotund dust]

Yeah my level 3 one summons 3, and the blood magic skill just increases their ouput right?

[merry pebble]

yeah

[keen cliff]

i think it's just easier to use pufferfish or smoke

[halcyon ravine]

There are other summons.

[rotund dust]

What do skeletons eat btw?

[merry pebble]

nothing

[rotund dust]

But they say they hungry

[trail pelican]

wouldn't it always just be more efficient/automated to use the one fire type (I think some kinda brazier) peopel use on the greydwarf nest farms?

[rotund dust]

So i figured if we fed them, they would heal like other tamed pets

[merry pebble]

Yeah, they use animal logics but you cant feed them

[keen cliff]

for automated killing, smoke, pufferfish, or floor brazier are the ways to do it usually

[trail pelican]

i feel like that could be another use for the rotten meat item

[rotund dust]

Haha, here i am feeding them all sorts of trophies, swamp items, cooking one of every food... 😂

[trail pelican]

to heal them--unless they do add a healing support staff

[keen cliff]

i saw a design where when the boars grew to adulthood, suddenly their head was in the smoke and they died. that's a good one.

[rotund dust]

Dvergr mage healing staff is AMAZING... I thought id get that in Mistlands

[merry pebble]

Put that into #suggestions 😄

[trail pelican]

it might even be too good
but yeah, I like the concept

[rotund parrot]

If you want another type of skeleton for whatever reason you can just use the butchering knife on the type you don't want

[rotund dust]

Its weird it says they are hungry, yet you cant feed them, i feel that is a design flaw, or we're 100% missing something 😂

Would be cool if they could regen while running around

[old flint]

is ashlands mystery challenging?

[rotund parrot]

2 of them are quite challenging

[keen cliff]

if yet to find the start of the mysterious locations questline... sigh

i need to find more putrid holes

[trail pelican]

i'm PRETTY sure they TECHNICALLY do (going off the same rules I think most if not all mobs have, and regenerating health at a certain fixed rate) but it's so slow you hardly ever notice--they'll despawn because you leave the area or be killed before it's ever relevant

[keen cliff]

too busy base building at the moment lol

i think i found an edge case that lets your skellies stick around when you're not there: one time i screwed up my afk blood magic farm, and died over night. when i went back to collect my stuff, my skellies were still there

[old flint]

Dual wielding krom and slayer when?

[merry pebble]

When you get muscles strong enough to do so 😄

[nocturne wolf]

Dual wielded sledgehammers would be even better

[light moat]

How about wielding three swords?

[nocturne wolf]

Or berserkir battleaxes

[light moat]

Dual wielding Frostners

[tacit crystal]

2 Demolishers 👀

[trail pelican]

no one person was ever meant to wield this much power

[keen cliff]

ssh you'll trigger that guy who hates Frostner knockback

[sly hare]

Hi

Well prob not him but I hate it

[gray sand]

🤬 ing piece of 🤬 you mother 🤬 god-🤬

😏

[sly hare]

I wish the knockback is only for the secondaring attack

Let me do a basic combo with frostner please

[keen cliff]

HERE WE GO AGAIN. ROUND 2. FIGHT

[rotund dust]

Thats why i stopped using maces, once the basic attacks started knocking back :S

[sly hare]

It's goofy to hit once walk up then hit again lol

[merry pebble]

What about me...

[trail pelican]

don't enemies have varying levels of knockback "resistance"? such that it won't knockback every enemy out of attack range, really depends upon the enemy?

[sly hare]

Do you hate the knockback?

[rotund dust]

Unsure, ever since i got to mistlands, i went from being Ragnar, to Harry Potter

[trail pelican]

i do agree that knockback is kinda a weird stat to consider "buff" at all, given enemies don't take fall damage, it's rather situational when it's more help than hindrance at al

[rotund parrot]

Clubs for me are unplayable because of the knockback

[trail pelican]

lol 100%

SLOWING and/or STUNNING ("rooting") enemies--SUPER useful

[merry pebble]

Yep 😄

[trail pelican]

knocking them back a few feet, for them to just run back again--but delayed long enough to interrupt combo possibilities often--not NEARLY as useful/of dubious use value, generally

[sly hare]

We share the same blood ❤️

[sly hare]

Yeah honestly at this point it's only good for its 2nd hit

[rotund dust]

If the last hit of a combo knocked back, that would be good

[sly hare]

Trying to parry a 2 star charred warrior was a mistake, thank God for frostner 2nd attack knockback tho

[sly hare]

By then I think enemies will be already dead lol

[rotund parrot]

You need a buckler to do so

[sly hare]

But yeah it's good too

[sly hare]

Yep with my carapace buckler

[merry pebble]

You also need quite a lot HP

[rotund parrot]

Interesting, it is definitely doable, you do need high health and block level

[sly hare]

Yeah I'm still staying around 200 hp sadly

Too lazy making ashlands food gonna wait for the feast

Then I will have 270 health ish and prob start using the staff of protection

[gray sand]

Demolisher turning even the most 2-starred Infested Mines into a casual stroll is so satisfying.

[keen cliff]

which reminds me, Nidhogg the thundering against seekers was SO satisfying

a couple jumped me when i a was getting black marble from a tower, and two swipes of the sword dead. haha

i think it proc'd chain lightning

[rotund parrot]

My special attack on a seeker soldier hitted for 1337.5 damage the other day

[tacit crystal]

Any Thundering weapon really is, I like Splitnir and Storm Star against them

[keen cliff]

i enjoy when a game gives you an opportunity to feel OP

[tacit crystal]

Yes, especially against FULINGS

[keen cliff]

oh yeah this

[rotund parrot]

I remember when I first tested magic agaisn't a fuling camp, it felt so overpowered

[trail pelican]

it's so fun

[rotund parrot]

clump them up and let them have it

[trail pelican]

it MAY be overpowered--granted, it's NOT invincible by any means if you're stupid at least--but my god, is it fun

[keen cliff]

actually. That's a good reason to craft Dundr. "Listen up you fulling knuckle dragger! This is my BOOM STICK!"

[trail pelican]

my favorite, even though I still really like melee

[tacit crystal]

Chuck a fireball at shaman and shout "Take this MF!"

[gray sand]

0 Skill, Buckler rank 3 vs. 2-star Charred Warrior takes 250-285 HP to parry depending on attack.

At 100 skill, this drops to 167-190 HP

[rotund parrot]

I always shout that at shamans no matter what!

[old flint]

I just simply went to nearest fuling village once I got staff of ember

[trail pelican]

yeah blocking one of the skills levels really matter, because it makes every point of HP count

[keen cliff]

i should let loose trollstav trolls on a fulling camp

[sly hare]

Bold of you to assume I have high blocking skills 😭

[gray sand]

There is no assumption, as I started with 0 skill numbers.

[rotund dust]

Went from 90 sword- 85 run at end of swamp, to 17 sword by time im about to fight queen 😂 Skills dont stay high

[sly hare]

Amd I said my health Is 180 to 200 max

[tacit crystal]

Hitting Fuling Shamans with anything high knockback weapon is never not funny

[rotund parrot]

@gray sand That was useful info, I knew I could parry them didn't know I could do so even at level 1 block

[gray sand]

Blocking sheet is pinned in this channel and freely available to all 👍

[rotund parrot]

Does it include hard and very hard?

[gray sand]

You type in your parameters.
It auto-updates itself.

Difficulty, Shield/Weapon, Skill Amount

[gray sand]

Kill a Squito with Demolisher is one of the most over-kill fun things to do.

[tacit crystal]

True, another satisfying thing I haven't done for a long time.

Shamans tho, they are fun because of their ragdoll animation when hitting them to death with high knockback weapon

[rotund parrot]

Are those the requirement to parry while not getting staggered at all and taking damage but you can still parry with lower health but get staggered a bit and take damage?

[gray sand]

READ ME page explains the details.

[rotund parrot]

Alright, make sense, I figured it was that because I know I could parry golem for exemple on hard with less than those requirement but I'd get staggered a bit

[gray sand]

Stagger meter getting some points is fine.
Being staggered is the breakpoint you want to avoid.

[rotund parrot]

I don't mind getting staggered a bit agaisn't them, I recover faster than them and can still get a few hit in while they are staggered too

[rotund dust]

In a 1vs1 situation sure... But even then, getting staggered sucks

[rotund parrot]

@gray sand Thank you for doing that spreadsheet!

Oh yeah it's not ideal but in that scenario it still end with a faster fight than just dodging all the attacks

[trail pelican]

#screenshots message @rotund parrot did you fall into the corner crevasse that's sometimes present for crypts and/or alternatively what the hell am I looking at here?

[rotund parrot]

There was one of those indestructible fallen tree in front of the crypt, placed in a way that left just a tiny hole, I don't know why I tried to get in that crypt in insight but I did, slide down the hole and I can't get in the crypt from there nor can I jump out.

[trail pelican]

oh yeah that's fatal--I know of your professed dislike for commands, but honesty this is one situation specifically tailor made to get yourself out the hole, then back to no commands, IMO

[rotund parrot]

I already destroyed the world and character

[trail pelican]

lol

gotta respect the commitment

[rotund parrot]

I am not using commands, I will start over, at least I can tell myself that run didn't end because I died

[trail pelican]

run killed by a tree--and NOT in the way you'd expect

[rotund parrot]

That's a first for me, just getting stuck somewhere in this game

[merry pebble]

Why not load a save from that world, before geting stuck

[rotund parrot]

I can load a save?

[trail pelican]

oh yeah, i forget you can do that often too lol

[rotund parrot]

Oh I found where it is, in manage save, you click the arrow and there's some autobackup

Convenient, good to know

[trail pelican]

indeed!

[light moat]

Oh hey, Valheim is back up to 90% positive rating on Steam 🤔

[gray sand]

Genuine: Do people care about such things? (And if so, why?)

Context: How many "Critics say it is horrible." movies have you gone to see that were actually really good? (And vice versa)

[merry pebble]

It was below that? I only see "very positive"

[light moat]

I’m more just curious as opposed to actually caring, I’d say. The only time I really take something like Steam reviews into consideration is when it’s below like 80% I’d say.

[light moat]

Yeah, was 89% for the longest time haha

[rotund dust]

Only opinion that matters is mine to me. Cos everyone is different and just cos you do / don't like it, doesn't mean i'll feel same

[hot flint]

It's pretty important yeah. reviews definitely influence public perception

[gray sand]

Seem to only influence the gullible and indecisive 🤷‍♂️

(Which granted, is unfortunalety the vast majority of humanity at this time.)

[hot flint]

If people see a game with "mixed" reviews, they're way less likely to buy it, that's just how the market goes

[gray sand]

That does not contradict what I just said.

[rotund dust]

When games like fortnite are so popular, i dont care what the sheeple say about gaming, i make my own decisions 🙂

[light moat]

Eh, I wouldn’t say that’s entirely the case. Bad ratings could be related to something like performance issues or game-breaking bugs.

[gray sand]

I don't care about positive ratings.
I read the negative reviews to see what people complain about. And if I don't care about the complaints, then I buy the product 😁

[light moat]

Perfectly fair! Everyone has their own reasons for buying products 🙂

[gray sand]

So a review like "I can't believe the did a balance patch on the most brokenly overpowered cape in the game." is meaningless to me, and I will still buy it.

😏😉

[hot flint]

That's fine, but most people do infact care

[rotund dust]

When a land space, has mistlands, black forest, plains, mountains, theres NORMALLY a swamp somewhere too right?

[gray sand]

See previous about "vast majority" 👍

[hot flint]

Well, sorry but i don't think everyone around me is "indecisive" or "gullible"

[gray sand]

Everyone around you, personally accounts for the vast majority of 8 billion? Wow... you must travel constantly.

[rotund dust]

#screenshots What direction I go? 😄

[gray sand]

Towards map center.

[hot flint]

Oh, im sorry again! I did not infact know that gamers live in a different universe

[rotund dust]

Need iron to smelt BM to get Sap Extractors

[gray sand]

Iron also drops from the broken armor in Mistlands.

[rotund dust]

I have 1000 iron at base, but cbf boating it 😂

OH! To mistlands i go

[gray sand]

They break into iron and copper scrap.

[rotund dust]

Keep getting copper scrap, forgot bout iron scrap!

[merry pebble]

#screenshots message @rotund dust why are you looking for swamps?

[rotund dust]

I needed iron, but Sev reminded me something basic and simple XD

[gray sand]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY SWAMP?

[merry pebble]

Oh you are actually talking about it XD yeah, the armor and also brifges, from those you get already smelted iron

[unreal idol]

If an update comes out with new features for the swamps and I have undiscovered swamps on my save, will I have to create a new world or will it appear in undiscovered swamps?

[gray sand]

It will appear.

[merry pebble]

You are fine

[unreal idol]

that's good because I worked a bit on my save luckily I didn't discover too much xd I hope it will be good

[rotund dust]

Do armors/weapons, go down into the ground like copper in mistlands?

Or what you see is what you get

[merry pebble]

What?

[rotund dust]

Coppers in black forests, go way deeper than the eye sees, was curious if weapons/armors go under ground to

[gray sand]

Think Copper Nodes in BF.

[merry pebble]

Oh, no they do not

Or at least i never bothered to try and see as i never needed it

[drowsy vortex]

are there any open valheim servers? (meaning no passwords needed)

[gray sand]

I wish there was a skull that generated with the helmet on it...

Best I have found is ribs that had a sword through them.

[gray sand]

#1024264966712340510

[rotund dust]

Im hoping in the deep north, the Giants escaped, to get away from the bugs, and its too cold for the bugs to be there, so they are thriving

[merry pebble]

No, all servers do have passwords, but people are looking for others to play with all the time, just follow the link Sev gave you 🙂

[gray sand]

I would let go of that hope.

[drowsy vortex]

okay thanks, was just wondering if password was always required, and thanks @gray sand for the link

[rotund dust]

Killjoy.

[gray sand]

Being realistic leads to more fulfilled joy.

[merry pebble]

And being pessimistic leads to the most joy, since everything is pleasant surprise 😄

[rotund dust]

Nah, i like to hope many things, then watch my dreams get crushed, then hope again like a fool

[gray sand]

You like to watch your dreams get crushed...

You should definitely talk to someone professional about that.

[rotund dust]

Every crushed dream, is one step closer to a dream being fulfilled.

[vocal rivet]

That's not really how that works.

[gray sand]

That's not even remotely true.

[rotund dust]

Murphys law would state that fail enough times, eventually you'll succeed... Have enough dreams eventually one will become reality.

[gray sand]

...

[vocal rivet]

That's not Murphy's Law. Murphy's Law is 'if something can go wrong, it will go wrong'.

[rotund dust]

Im making it my own way

[merry pebble]

Your name is not Murphy tho

[rotund dust]

Okay, Andres Law states 😄

[bronze viper]

Do someone know when the bog witch will out?

[vocal rivet]

Nope, no-one knows that. When the bugs are fixed.

[bronze viper]

tu

[vocal rivet]

Me what?

[bronze viper]

thank you)

[vocal rivet]

Ah, you're welcome.

[rotund parrot]

Flexing his french knowledge

[normal veldt]

[tepid prawn]

Yes, it will come out when the update is ready for live and all the bugs are fixed, exactly then, no earlier or no later!

[glacial sedge]

vheim

valing all over the place rn

[echo quartz]

Does anyone have a 2 star Asksvin? I’ve been on the hunt and no dice 😭

[fluid plank]

Yes ive found them, i dug pits around every fortress i claimed. At night i would make a mad dash to each one and eventually found one to chase me to a pit. It did take several days to eventually get one. I was on hard mode too dont know if that makes them spawn the same or more often.

[wise latch]

So fists as a skill is pretty useless right? Even with the fenris fist weapons?

[burnt glen]

If you don’t use the claws, then yeah.

[wise latch]

But even with the claws like, do they outclass any melee weapons in the same tier?

[gray sand]

No.

[burnt glen]

Uh, it has 72 slash at max and 30 block with 6x parry bonus so you can definetely parry thing with it. It fits well within a speedy build, like with full fenris armor, if that's your playstyle.

[amber geode]

You can also stun a fuling berserker with the kick. Not a 1-star, but a regular one.

[amber geode]

You can also stun seekers with it. And, with the combo that you can do, if you start with the kick and then get it off, you get a five-hit powerhouse that has two "big hits" instead of just one.

[rotund dust]

Im assuming I can only get Galdr table level 3 in mistlands? Pretty sure ive found everything, and cant upgrade armor/weapons higher than 3, says i need 4 for next upgrade

[rotund dust]

Also, does it matter if they arent the best weapon, if you enjoy them, or want to do a fist playthru, thats the fun of valheim 😄

[warm sandal]

I do love the fleshrippers to go with the fenris set and use them a lot one of my characters has fist lvl up at 42 already. They are quick and deal a fair bit of damage. I usually carry some sort of quick weapon (think knife or the like) a bow, a spear and some clublike weapon (think frostner and the like). that got me through all the biomes so far (after mistland i also carry 2 staffs. 😄 the knifes and fleshripper i really use a lot

if you are patient enough you can also punch all the bosses to death. there is one chanel on yoiutube showing how it is done. I am far to impatient for that but it can be done 😄

[gray sand]

Can someone give me a thorough description of what Staff of Fracturing actually does?

[warm sandal]

i am not super sure, it does not have the AoE that the staff of embers has it hits one target and then has chunks splitting of possibly hitting other enemies nearby. I made it but i seldom use it as the staff of embers does hit more than one enemy more effectively

[gray sand]

If you hit nothing you get the AoE break bombs.

If you hit one target, you do substantially more damage than advertised.

Which is... confusing.

[warm sandal]

yeah i find it confusing too, and thus have not used it much. I will want to dig deeper into how it can be used effectively but for now i got three characters at plains level to play up to Mistlands. So when I get t here i will be doing some experimenting on lesser foe.

[gray sand]

I have mainly been using Frost Staff.

Though I hope there is a lightning one? 👀

[rain flare]

Staff of fracturing is basically a super staff of embers with a TERRIBLE user friendliness.

Basically fire damage stacks ingame, and the way you are intended to use the staff of fracturing is to fire it off almost at point blank range to get as many of those little fragments to connect with your target as you can

The more of those hit, the higher the fire damage will be over time as you are stacking multiple instances of burning damage

If you can get 2-3 attacks off in rapid succession on something NOT resistant to burning damage, you can get something silly like 700-900 fire damage per second

[warm sandal]

i keep having trouble aiming with the staff of frost (and with the arbalest for that matter) it does need practise to hit what you want to hit with those (at least for me)

[rain flare]

It’s a shotgun

[gray sand]

So you're intended to not directly hit your target?

[rain flare]

Charge the thing, point and shoot

Staff of frost is like a close range machine gun
You kinda need to be close to do decent damage

[warm sandal]

oh good to know... me gonna be trying that out ... so it is kinda ouff that enemy is much to close for my liking, i need to get rid of it fast - weapon which is nice. 😄

[rain flare]

I spam that thing in the Ashlands 😂
Asksvin charges me, no thank you not today sir

❄️ ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ ❄️

[gray sand]

?

[rain flare]

Are you talking about ice staff or fracturing stick?

[gray sand]

Fracturing is the only one I have had questions about 😉

[warm sandal]

i do like the slowing effect of frost anything (my reaction time is not as quick as it used to be years and years ago 😄 )

[rain flare]

Aaah sorry 😂🤭

[gray sand]

So uh... yes/no?

[rain flare]

I am so sorry man I’m starting my work day so things making me chase 😂

So yes, you DO want to hit all of those little fragments directly

Don’t let he name fool you

While it does fragment the amount of projectiles, you want ALL of them to hit your target

It’s not an AOE weapon like embers

[gray sand]

No... like do you want to hit the BOLT SHOT FROM THE THING THAT SPAWNS NO FRAGMENTS IF YOU HIT SOMETHING DIRECTLY <--- that, do you want to hit your enemy directly or are you aiming to intentionally miss and hit the ground next to them to spawn the frags?

[rain flare]

Ahaaa gotcha 😂
No you aim AT your enemy
For the love of Odin’s fluffy beard, don’t aim at the ground 🤭

That is just not reliable

[lunar sapphire]

"Don't sun at the ground"
Sildar, go to work

[gray sand]

So hitting things directly, even though it spawns zero fragments, is the same damage as spawning the fragments?

[rain flare]

Hey, that is autocorrect misbehaving dude 😂

[lunar sapphire]

mhm

[rain flare]

Stand back just a few steps and fire it off

[gray sand]

How does my distance factor into this?

I have hit things up close and I have sniped from 50+m away.

[rain flare]

The staff automatically fragments the projectile after a few seconds

[gray sand]

It is the same behaviour from the staff.
Direct hit on enemy = no frags.
Missing enemy = frags.

Sec

[rain flare]

Unless the dev’s decided to change the way the staff works since I last used it

[gray sand]

Yeah I can launch bolts over the ocean and they never auto-fragment.

So I truly have no idea what this weapon is supposed to do.

[rain flare]

That is horrible.
The staff used to fragment the bolts a few seconds after launch.
If they removed that I would rather suggest using embers

[gray sand]

I will just go back to frost.

Ember is just a fireball... 🥱

[rain flare]

The little projectiles just don’t do enough damage on their own

[gray sand]

Going to cheat in Dundyr to see if I like it, if not I will just go back to being a muggle.

[lunar sapphire]

Ooh he cheatin

[queen kelp]

why isnt there an ashlands tier polearm

[rain flare]

Yeah… but FIREBALL 🤩

[gray sand]

SP game, I can cheat if I feel like it 😛 Especially if Item Descriptions are not actually DESCRIPTIVE enough for the player to understand them. 😛

[rain flare]

Dundr is basically a shotgun.
I prefer the wild staff 🥰

[lunar sapphire]

They're fine wym

Hey, I'm not wild

[rain flare]

😂

[lunar sapphire]

Irongate tamed me 3 years ago

[gray sand]

Shotgun that does 29 damage.

Which means it does 29 damage per bolt but there is no indication of how many bolts the shotgun shoots.
So there is no way for the player to compare the damage numbers.

500/10 tooltipping.... 🙄

[gray sand]

Got my Lightning Berserkirs.
Let's goooooo.

[rain flare]

Best weapon in the game in my opinion 🥰
The double axes are the best 🤩

[vital umbra]

last i heard they were objectively the best

atleast for melee weapons

[gray sand]

I think Bows are still the "best" overall once you level them up.

[rain flare]

Well, unless the mob is resistant to pierce

[gray sand]

Frost Arrows 😉

[vital umbra]

bows...really?..

[rain flare]

They are still really good.
High attack speed mixed with either AOE lightning for crowd control or wild magic to root bosses I place

[gray sand]

Have you ever gotten bows to 100 and seen the machine gun they become?

[vital umbra]

Honestly every experience i've had with bows is as a sidearm for utility, hunting & flying enemies.

[rain flare]

Nah.
I just cast fireball until it stops moving 😂

[gray sand]

I'm a frost/lightning mage when I play magic games.
Fire is too mainstream 😏

[vital umbra]

Hmm...i like fire because i do, Actively using the dyrnwyn on my last character 😤

[rain flare]

True, buuuut…
It’s literally in my name 😂

[gray sand]

Change it to Sildarfrost 😉 😛

[vital umbra]

The dyrnwyn doesn't seem that bad in contrast to what people seem to say about it

[gray sand]

Which one is that?

[vital umbra]

ashlands fire sword

[gray sand]

Oh, I thought we were still talking about magic.

[rain flare]

No

[vital umbra]

no way jose i was never talking about it i'm a warrior 🤬

Just magical 'effects' i was talking about

[rain flare]

Technically it is magic since we are talking about magic weapons, drynwyn is quite magical

[vital umbra]

:P

not for mages

[rain flare]

Why not?

[vital umbra]

cuz i said so

[rain flare]

All good spell-swords need enchanted weapons bud 🤭

[gray sand]

My one beef with magic is your Eitr doesn't regen while swording.

[vital umbra]

thats not a mage! thats a spellsword!

[gray sand]

So you can't go full battlemage and swap between the 2.

[rain flare]

Yeeeeah, true

[vital umbra]

😾

[gray sand]

Regens while sprinting, but not while dodging/swinging.

[rain flare]

Spell sword uses magic
Hence it is a mage
Just cause I like pointy sticks doesn’t make me any less magely 😂🤭

[gray sand]

Pain 😦

[vital umbra]

Man.

[patent wren]

whether sword-channeled magic counts as magework depends on your magic system, tbf

[gray sand]

Pointy Mage-stick (aka FROST STAFF 😛 )

[rain flare]

Thank you Tera 🥰

[patent wren]

i think things that channel eitr would count as magework for valheim

otherwise it's an imbued artifact

[vital umbra]

I'm no mage 👹

[rain flare]

Not based on that profile pic you’re not 😂🤭🥰

[vital umbra]

Exactlyyyyy

[rain flare]

Hope you don’t mind me… egging you on a bit with to at 🤣

[vital umbra]

is a paladin a mage

[gray sand]

No.

[vital umbra]

exactly

[rain flare]

A paladin isn’t using magic
They are using the power of their deity to do stuff 🤭

Odin ain’t helping us do Jack 😂

[merry pebble]

I mean, what makes mage a mage? Ability to channel some kind od mystic power?

[vital umbra]

i used paladin as a blanket term for a warrior that has some magical stuff going on

[gray sand]

One could argue the Forsaken powers are Odin's gift in exchange for your feats.

Given you have to bring them all the way back to the stones.

So... we are technically Paladins from that perspective 😛

[rain flare]

That I can work with 🤩🥳

[vital umbra]

ay ay ay i love how videos are already out about PTB content....watching random video and suddenly ALL THE FUCKING NEW STUFF IS PILED TOGETHER FOR AESTHETIC...so i closed that tab as quickly as possible..

[rain flare]

And so many times the people don’t get the info right either

Seriously.
Just let the new stuff drop naturally

[gray sand]

Can't wait to have to completely redo my kitchen to accomodate whatever size the new stuff requires.

[merry pebble]

Well just a warrior that uses magic would be the spellsword mentioned previously, paladin Is a bit more "precise(?)" term 😄

[vital umbra]

This was just some video labeled, titled, thumbnailed as talking about the feather cape, then 30 seconds in it shows every single fucking feast in one place and like "SO UNLESS YOU'VE BEEN LIVING UNDER A ROCK BLAH BLAH BLAH-"

👻

[rain flare]

Oh I HATE that!!! 😂

[gray sand]

Tunnel basers are people who literally live under rocks 😛

[vital umbra]

like bro no i have not been living under a rock i know theres an update and i'm in the middle of playing through it and i have not seen all this stuff you just threw at my face....

[tacit crystal]

Clerics use the power granted by their Deity, Paladins gain power throught their Oath.

At least in D&D

[vital umbra]

then whats a templar

[gray sand]

Religious genocidal racist?

[vital umbra]

thats a crusader

[gray sand]

Ah, true.

[merry pebble]

Templars can be crusaders afaik, or was it the other way around?

[patent wren]

rich religious genocidal racists

templars were a catholic order of knights who participated in the crusades and were very well-funded for it

[vital umbra]

knights templar innit

[gray sand]

Heh

Netflix comedy series about the Squires Templar 😄

[glacial sedge]

ironic since their whole image was being poor

[glacial sedge]

yeah, templars can be crusaders. so can hospitallers, teutons, etc. those are just monastic orders

anyways templars are stupid

hospitallers >>

teutons just take L after L

[vital umbra]

I don't know the specifics, i just like those various christian holy warriors and stuff because i like paladins as a playstyle and whatever

[vital umbra]

Bruhh why is fog invading where i want the floor of my base to be 🤬 👹

[gray sand]

Fog or Mist?

[vital umbra]

Are you shitting me....

its fog, its in the meadows

[gray sand]

Ewwwwwww Meadows bases.

😛

[vital umbra]

why

[gray sand]

Plains 💪

[vital umbra]

i like green

[gray sand]

And Mountains, of course 🐦‍⬛ 🖤

(For when Winter reads this)

[vital umbra]

The meadows is the homiest of homes, its where everything starts, and where it ends when you return faders trophy.

profound stuff aside this fog ass bro

[gray sand]

Fuck the Meadows.
I would rather base in the Swamp/

[nocturne wolf]

I’ve only made one base outside of meadows (it was in mistlands) because my friends only want to build in meadows

[gray sand]

You need better friends 😏

[vital umbra]

Ohh base-wise i think meadows > plains > mountains > mistlands > black forest > swamp > ashlands

[gray sand]

Plains > Mountains > Ashlands > Black Forest > Mistlands > Swamp >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Meadows.

[vital umbra]

comedic

why ashlands so high??

[gray sand]

Fun.

[tacit crystal]

Where do you list Deep North? 👀

[vital umbra]

I love the biome but its....fucking ugly and gloomy to live in lol..

[gray sand]

Deep North doesn't exist yet 🤷‍♂️

[vital umbra]

It kinda does...i mean i wanted to build a base in the ashlands before the update came out.

[tacit crystal]

I did build a small outpost before Ashlands in one of my worlds. Then got confirmed it will eventually break down due to terrain changes 🫣

[vital umbra]

After in my last playthrough moving all my operations to an ashlands castle i created....i will no longer be building bases in the biome 😮‍💨

Screw that noise, Its depressing, Lava blobs always messing my shit up, Constant required shield generators, Charred charred charred charred charred charred and charred, boiling water, just no...

[tacit crystal]

I made an outpost in one of those Fortresses, they surely keep all those enemies away 👌🏻

[merry pebble]

Yeah if it was near the border with other biomes then it will be in the ocean now 😄

[tacit crystal]

Yes, I used hoe to raise ground and built it on top of the raised ground.

But if I had built on top of one of those boulders that spawned in pre-Ashlands biome it would have remained

[glacial sedge]

Ocean>>>

find a leviathan and bam you’ve basically built a functioning atlantis

(idk if you can build on leviathans)

[tacit crystal]

You can't build on top of Leviathans

[gaunt moth]

JESUS CHRIST is coming back soon please repent yourself and follow the path the truth and the life and save your soul !!!!

[gray sand]

The fuck?

[fallow parrot]

https://tenor.com/view/jambajew-steve-brule-stare-gif-18457155

[fair cairn]

guess what, ill block you now cause i dont respect you as a human anymore

[gaunt moth]

Truth is sharped like a sword to divide flesh and spirit

[gray sand]

Mods?

[rain flare]

Such “Notice me senpai” vibes 🤭

[rain flare]

Are you mad you muppet????? 😂😂😂

[gray sand]

The crows see all.
Just covering my bases.

[rain flare]

I like this

[rain flare]

As a fellow Christian, yes, our messiah is coming back soon (may even be before the end of the year the way things are going).
But dropping that here in a Valheim chat like a bombshell is not going to help anyone pay attention - you are more likely to annoy people and get your message removed.

[rain flare]

I’m just surprised that you guys put the mistlands so low on your priority for living space 😭
It’s so beautiful!

[gray sand]

Beautiful, yes.
Flat enough for how I build, no.

[rain flare]

Mine would be Mistlands>mountains>plains

[pure blaze]

what's the point of reeling mechanic in fishing if you can pull the hooked fish just by walking away from the shore and therefore not expending stamina?

[rain flare]

Ah. I see 🤭
I like to build treehouse style, so mistlands suits me perfectly 🤭

[gray sand]

Walking while hooked costs stamina.

[rain flare]

Cause the intended mechanic is to use the fishing rod.
The smart Viking just collected the fish in a bucket 😂

On a more serious note without minecraft nonsense, the fishing rod is kinda necessary for catching certain fish
Troll fish for example can spawn in little groups just too far away for you to throw out a line and walk them back to land

I prefer to sit in a karve, throw out a line just next to the boat, then reel my supper in 🥰

Sometimes I catch sea serpents too 😂

Last time I went fishing it was storming and this bastard popped out next to my boat and screamed at me 🤣
Had a mini heart attack 😂

[gray sand]

PATCH POGGERS

[pure blaze]

did it scream at you for using his head as a fishing bait? 😆

[timid geyser]

Did they remove the nerf to the feather cape?

[harsh ivy]

is my public test world gonna be fine

[rain flare]

Yes 😂

[gray sand]

Hopefully not.

[rain flare]

Yeah, it will be fine

[timid geyser]

What do you mean hopefully not? It was a dumb nerf.

[rain flare]

He was… reasonably upset 🤭

[harsh ivy]

nah idk

[gray sand]

LOOOOOOLLLLL

Balancing the most overpowered cape in the game is not a dumb nerf.
It is balancing the most overpowered cape in the game.

[rain flare]

I think the dev’s just didn’t want us to be too fixated on that one cape

[gray sand]

• Feather cape no longer has a boost to player jump height (this has been moved to the new Lightfoot Mead)
• Berserkir axe secondary attack stamina cost increased to 32 from 28

Both nerfs still exist. Good.

[timid geyser]

It's not even a good cape because immediately after you can make it, you go to the next biome that makes it basically unusable

[old flint]

Bog witchs here?

[harsh ivy]

i like the broom trophy ngl

[gray sand]

You and the planet of Earth define "unusable" very, very differently.

[timid geyser]

And now I have even less inventory space because I have to use a potion to get the same effect that the cape used to give

[pure blaze]

it's for those who like to dwell in the Mistlands for longer time

[old flint]

Thanks @tacit crystal

[tacit crystal]

You will figure out one way to save up inventory slots 👌

[old flint]

Imma go update my game

[gray sand]

Time to update food sheet.

[versed parcel]

Huh
Nevermind
I guess they did pump it out in time for Halloween

Hope they didn't feel they needed to rush

[harsh ivy]

do i put the betas to the "none"

[vocal rivet]

Yes.

[harsh ivy]

ok

[gray sand]

The PTB was just numbers tweaking afaik so it wasn't rushed.
Just dialing it in, they had most of what they wanted before it even came to us.

[restive linden]

Thanks for the update! Also, anyone know of the issue present in the last PTB where the controller movement goes haywire in the inventory menu has been fixed with today’s update?

[timid geyser]

Nah I'm just gonna mod the game because the devs are blinded by their need for "balance" when all it really does is inconvenience people by removing quality of life from the game. It's a PvE game, QOL should be sacred, and difficulty should be adjusted through combat, not inventory management.

[jovial sandal]

hoooooooweeeeeeeeee were gonna be havin some creepy nightmares tonight! I tell ya man that abomination still haunts me

[versed parcel]

Ah
I see

[nocturne pasture]

Tool: Scythe - Allows you to speed up the harvesting of your crops wow they really did it

[jovial sandal]

Also very fitting to get the update out in the middle of the night. As its the spookiest of night.

[vocal rivet]

I doubt the controller issue was just number tweaking.

[upbeat crypt]

Is the Scythe the best thing of all times?

[versed parcel]

Shoulda made a war scythe too

[vocal rivet]

We've already got multiple atgeir.

[versed parcel]

Although the Atgeir is basically that funnily enough

[harsh ivy]

valheim update broken its stuck at 100 xD

pc boutta explode

[olive vault]

will the bog witch be in my old world aslong as i havent been to that swamp or do i need to make a new world

[jovial sandal]

Dude I can't wait to actually have a good time with this. My favorite part of valheim is making food and the farming. They did such a good job with it but damn dude I really couldn't stand to pick up each indivudual crop when you have 100 crops planted ya know?

[old flint]

So can bog witch spawn to any swamp I havent been to yet?

[nocturne pasture]

jesus what a nice QOL Update

[harsh ivy]

scythe is awesome i my worls is in beta and it is lifesaver

[restive linden]

I still found the witch despite having tons of swamp already explored. As long as there’s still some swamp, you should be good.

[harsh ivy]

but if you play on multiplayer crafting skill is clutch too

you can get good weapons for free to ur mates if u are lucky

[jovial sandal]

Mouse and Controller savor too! Probably saves wear and tear like its nothin

Dude the crafting skill I actually am very VERY surprised about that cause my main issue when going out, is my weapons break, surprisngly before the rested bonus timer. Having more durability on bows is gonna be a massive game changer

[old flint]

Yo my game now says "generating" in bottom right is it the bog witch??

[harsh ivy]

mayby 👀

[jovial sandal]

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not but do you actually not like how inventory is a main means of balancing?

[harsh ivy]

i want to build base to boat

[timid geyser]

Wasting my time through inventory management is not my idea of a fun time.

[harsh ivy]

but sadly impossible without mods

[jovial sandal]

Lemme ask ya somethn, ever heard of a little game called... ARK? 😛

[harsh ivy]

it aint that bad i always carry portal shit in my inv and 2 potions and other shit

but still have enough space

[gray sand]

Then mod. That's the purpose of modding, when you feel the dev's made a mistake.

[harsh ivy]

ngl they should add more ocean content

[vocal rivet]

Ark, a game where your inventory is literally full of your own shit.

[jovial sandal]

Oh thats comin. Idk when but they absolutely will

[harsh ivy]

sick my friends and i are bored in ocean when sailing cuz ngl no fear of serpents and shit

[jovial sandal]

God dude like... ark's inventory is so bad, that Valheims and even 7 Days to die inventory management is a GOD send by comparison. Not to mention the weight system in general like my god dude

In fact when Valheim added the feature where if you hold the store button when going in a chest it automatically adds any matching items from your inventory into that matching items chest and that to me is a M A S S I V E improvement.

[timid geyser]

Why would I want to play a worse game? Valheim is a great game with incredibly annoying inventory management and other annoying "balancing" decisions. A game's #1 focus should be removing minuity that gets in the way of fun. This update has some great QOL features but then it unnecessarily nerfs the feather cape for this new potion that is not trivial to create (hares are tough to find and kill because they're quick and dive into fog).

[gray sand]

"A game's #1 focus should be" yeah... ok.
Define how an entire industry should operate solely on your opinion of things... 👍

[jovial sandal]

Oh yeah trust me ark is awful (10k hours I would know) I would never recommend it. Ya play Valheim and its like "Oh wow they actually care" its mad nice

[lyric olive]

The game I have 4k hours on? Why yes, yes I have. Great game, I love ascended.

[harsh ivy]

sex update when

[lyric olive]

How? Ark is amazing

I just finished ragnarok again, it's a great game.

[glacial sedge]

im hoping for a hunting update. more animals? early game traps? maybe some sort of taxidermy for animal statues? could also make sense to add satchels or something to increase inventory space

[jovial sandal]

I do admit I really did wish they would increase the fog spread on the wisps in singleplayer

[rotund dust]

Will Bog Witch spawn, on an already existing seed?

[spark summit]

It felt that when I used this feature the storage was meant to close when releasing the key, do you confirm or did I dream it ? It seems it stopped working for me

[jovial sandal]

Ahhhh.. we uhh... we talkin about the same game here? lol

[lyric olive]

Ark survival ascended? I don't know of any other ark 🤔

[old flint]

I heard of some farming improvement? What is it

[glacial sedge]

also why did they keep the removal of the jump boost from the feather cape, didn’t no one like that

[jovial sandal]

Both evolved and ascended are... not good what.. Ah please lets go over to general chat I am very curious about your positive opinion

[harsh ivy]

i lost my profile xD

[lyric olive]

Sure ask away

[harsh ivy]

gotta play on beta still

with friends

[vocal rivet]

The cape wasn't nerfed. It's back to how it always was.

[timid geyser]

Yeah it's back to how it was, but it feels terrible to have that small QOL buff taken away because they want to push these new difficult to make potions.

[vocal rivet]

Difficult to make? In what way?

[versed parcel]

Oh yeah I'm not super aware of a bunch of QoL stuff other than the scythe, feasts, potions and etc
Did they change anything about the inventory?

like, equipment/armor slots

[nocturne wolf]

The inventory hasn’t changed at all

[versed parcel]

I feel like that would always be a welcome addition
if not I'll just keep the mod on

[versed parcel]

ic

[glacial sedge]

i feel like meads should do what skills or equipment cannot, so that they don’t take their job

[timid geyser]

hares are not trivial to hunt

[old flint]

How to make scythe?

[versed parcel]

don't see why they don't just make that a thing in the game

[vocal rivet]

There's millions of them.

[timid geyser]

and they're all fast and dive into fog

[glacial sedge]

resistance meads are great ideas, but removing an items buff to force a jump mead is silly and redundant

hell why even remove the jump buff from the item

[rotund dust]

Just noticed my cape is nerfed... 😦

[nocturne wolf]

The recipe used to need a trophy in the first test build, now it only needs 2 scale hide.

[glacial sedge]

why do the devs not want players jumping extra high

[rotund dust]

I feel feather cape NEEDS that JUMP boost for the mistlands

[timid geyser]

Seriously, let me have fun

[nocturne wolf]

Mistlands was fine without jump boost, it’s there for ashlands.

[glacial sedge]

give the cape its buff back. sure it makes the potion redundant but then that’s a problem with the potion, not the item

idk why the devs don’t see it that way

[tacit crystal]

You need to find the new NPC first

[timid geyser]

Let me do BIG jumps

[nocturne wolf]

The mead means everyone has better jumping regardless of the cape they use

[rotund dust]

It'd be like removing the poison resistance or fire resistance from the armors

[lyric olive]

That was strong, I'm glad it got changed.

[timid geyser]

Max Jump Level, Feather Cape Buff, and Jump Potion would've been a ton of fun

[azure yacht]

Kill moder and find the NPC

[glacial sedge]

but then why remove the buff from the cape when the mead could serve as an alternative for those who choose not to wear the cape

[lyric olive]

Valheim has a tendency to add really OP things

[azure yacht]

Which is why they removed it from the cape. Too op

[tacit crystal]

It doesn't really. It wasn't there when Mistlands came out and we all fared fine without the jump height boost back then.

[glacial sedge]

i think being op is fine, as most of the op stuff comes late game if im correct

[tacit crystal]

I like being OP with my Ashlands gear against Fulings 💪

[merry pebble]

No, it Is just making the cape not as op, people seems to forget that for most of the time it existed it "only" provided feather fall and frost resistance, even nov it Is better than that with the stamina cost reduction

[lyric olive]

I think the jump is fine but it was too good

[timid geyser]

It was a QOL buff, it should've stayed. There's nothing wrong with some stuff being a little OP in a game that doesn't have a competitive aspect to it.

[azure yacht]

True, we should have an insta-kill weapon in ashlands that makes all combat irrelevant

[lyric olive]

Just make it worse don't remove the jump

[glacial sedge]

but op so where it doesn’t really harm the difficulty too much at the current stage, just gives a satisfying power trip when you return to previous stages

[rotund dust]

Cape sucked anyways, made Gjalls fire waste you 😂 Need that jump boost!

[old flint]

witch?

[timid geyser]

I was excited to pretend I'm the Michael Jordan of Vikings

[azure yacht]

It is.

Make something too broken and it becomes boring.

[glacial sedge]

reductionist?

[tacit crystal]

Instakill weapon would be CheatSword 🤭

[azure yacht]

Yes

[candid basalt]

Am I in the PTB channel? Sure seems like it

[nocturne wolf]

Cheat sledge is the better version

[merry pebble]

Ptb Is basically just general 2 now anyway, since the bog witch has just gone live 😉

[jagged geode]

Question that will be probbly asked thousand times sorry! Can witch spawn on already explored swamps, or only on new ones?

[rotund dust]

Its not PTB when the update is live.

[tacit crystal]

Now the PTB convos of the same topic moved to regular chat 🤭

[versed parcel]

Who woulda thunk

[merry pebble]

As long as you have unexplored swamps you should be fine 😄

[serene talon]

does anyone know why the update does not appear on steam for me

[jagged geode]

aaah i see, thank you! Hopefully our community server still have some haha appreciated!

[old flint]

They added crafting and farming as skills

[azure yacht]

Live and PTB are the same, there's nothing to update

[tacit crystal]

And cooking

[serene talon]

well thats the issue i wasn't on ptb when it released

[merry pebble]

Try to restart Steam, usually does the trick 🙂

[autumn depot]

I came here to ask the same!!

[azure yacht]

That's what I was going to suggest

[merry pebble]

Also see above 😄

[nocturne wolf]

Does launching the game not check for an update?

[serene talon]

worked first try, thanks!

[jagged geode]

Looks like fun weekend ahead I will have to update my cooking cheat sheet with recipes after that yay

[candid basalt]

Patch is live. What a wonderful thing to wake up to... and go to work

[old flint]

Even worse at a break home and having to go back in 30mins

[versed parcel]

That's actually great

Did they add sailing?

[autumn depot]

Restarted Steam, and PC, still no update.

[azure yacht]

#valheim-patchnotes

[versed parcel]

yeye fair enough

[azure yacht]

TL;DR: No

The update is about swamps, not ocean.

A sailing skill would make more sense in an ocean update

[versed parcel]

that's fair enough
but it does have some general QoL too

[nocturne wolf]

We don’t need everything to have its own skill

[hot flint]

finally cooking crafting and farming as skills. i dun even care about the new trader

[hot flint]

the duality of man

[tepid prawn]

but the new trader helps with all of these 3 skills massively with things you can purchase, sorta ties it together

[tepid prawn]

yeah or it releasing at bedtime for me, lucky I was already playing it a lot on PTB haha

[sand wasp]

patch goes live when it seems like my friend is off

[blissful peak]

so we can't create any mead bases at the cauldron anymore?

[tacit crystal]

There is a new crafting station for that

[blissful peak]

i know, but it requires iron

how will i make the poison mead before the swamp?

[nocturne wolf]

The mead ketill does not require iron

[blissful peak]

oh i'm dumb

[sand wasp]

• you won't really need poison resistance until you've already gotten iron

[tacit crystal]

Tin and Copper

[blissful peak]

yeah, you're right i'm dumb

ok, it's not so bad and this is fine by me

the food preparation table is the one that requires iron. good enough for me

i do like how all the mead bases have different icons and you can tell them apart now

[tacit crystal]

You can fit both Cauldron and Ketill in one campfire

[austere belfry]

anyone feel the effect of the fps optimizations?

[normal vine]

would be cool if they added george droid to valheim

[merry pebble]

This Is simply not true...

[sand wasp]

i didn't need it

[gray sand]

Oh thank Odin... the new feasts don't affect the Configurations tab at all 🙏
Was going to be a nightmare figuring that out if they did.

[merry pebble]

In that case you mean its needed for bonemass right? I also didn't need it for him but that doesent mean thats the case for everyone

[sand wasp]

yeah

i'm saying that you don't need poison resistance until you do the boss fight

[vocal rivet]

Most people will.

[frail vault]

you need poison resist more for the boss than you do for the rest of the swamp

[merry pebble]

I didn't need it for him, but that doesent mean it Is not good for him

[vocal rivet]

So many elite players this morning.

[merry pebble]

Almost noon here 🙂

[sand wasp]

that's not what i'm saying? i'm literally talking about BEFORE the fight where you don't need the resistance. ofc you need it during it if you actually want to hit him unless you know what you're doing.

[austere belfry]

As a new player, the swamp was the most miserable part of the game for me, so for those who havent played before im inclined to suggest using the poison mead throughout it

[frail vault]

you dont really need poison until the boss fight, because it really isnt that hard to deal with slimes

[lunar sapphire]

I still stick behind the advice of just keep moving and "most" enemies can't hit you

[frail vault]

just any mace heavy attack

[rotund dust]

New update has made using the hammer weird, half the time you right click and it flickers and doesnt even bring up build menu... yay?

[merry pebble]

You are saying Its not needed for swamps because you didn't need it, i am saying Its not needed for bonemass since i didn't need it for him, both of those statement are of equal value

[vocal rivet]

Ugh. YOU don't. Other people will.

[glacial sedge]

poison resistance is better than no poison resistance

[sand wasp]

i just don't know why you're going on about bonemass when i was talking about the getting iron stage before the fight

[merry pebble]

That Is indeed true 🙂

[merry pebble]

Because you said you dont need the poison resistance before getting iron, ergo while exploring swamps, also it was you who said you dont need it before the fight with him 🙂

[glacial sedge]

yargluth

[merry pebble]

What with the boney boy?

[glacial sedge]

if his arena is supposed to be a hand then it’s a pretty messed up hand

contorted fingers and all

[sand wasp]

i can do that with my hand

[merry pebble]

Its just a normal hand 🤷‍♂️

[empty lintel]

Todays update hasn't fixed the controller issue no. They've put the broken controller PTB live. I've tested it thoroughly this morning by dropping back down to live, verifying my install, even doing a full re-install. The controller movement still goes haywire in the inventory menu.

[deep scroll]

Xbox menus with the controller (only option) are borderline unusable. Need a hot fix.

[restive linden]

Such a big glaring issue and it was pushed to the main branch. Fantastic!

[glacial sedge]

is there a console command that turns off mob spawning? or just monster spawning if possible?

[empty lintel]

It's quite fascinating that they'd happily break the game for so many people in live

[gray sand]

List, Recipes, Sorted and Ordered, and Decaying Stats tabs have been updated. Working on Meads tab now.

[rotund dust]

I was really loving this game, but the hammer flickering when trying to build on PC is weird (only started with recent update)

[restive linden]

I don’t usually question the devs’ decisions for the game but to push this to live is baffling. Isn’t PTB meant for fixing things like this before going live? But who cares about us controller peasants, I guess.

[empty lintel]

I presume they felt under pressure to get it out for Halloween but yeah I don't dev games so I can't say how difficult or otherwise it would be to fix

[glacial sedge]

Very helpful.

[empty lintel]

Oddly enough I find gaming on a couple of devices (keyboard/mouse) I usually do spreadsheets on pretty savage. I also sometimes even play Valheim in VR where controller is the only option. Let that blow your mind

[plush umbra]

Hi. I found a bug, but I don't know how to write a bug report. please tell me.

[azure yacht]

Due to Microsoft and Apple authentication processes taking time to approve fixes, the PTB had to be pushed to LIVE. Fix for this should come as soon as possible in a form of a hot fix, just like it was done for many isuses in the past.

[plush umbra]

I take it that the problem of opening recipes by selecting things that are not in the recipe is already known?

[tulip patrol]

How is saying "controller gamers aren't real gamers" dark humor? dark humor would be like certain South Park bits.

saying that is ust being a dick.

[vast sandal]

Am I the only one LOVING the fact that feather cape lost the high jump effect? Sure, outdoors it was pretty neat - but INDOORS or in any house, it was a constant misery of smacking my head into the ceiling haha...

[glacial sedge]

It’s called “dark humour”… maybe YOU should read a book…

[copper matrix]

is update out out?

[fickle beacon]

Still on pc we accept you

[glacial sedge]

not a book.

[gray sand]

Imagine talking down to an interface many professional gaming players have said is superior 😄

[opal torrent]

Called Still water + Balkan Rage

[glacial sedge]

Green

[tulip patrol]

professional gaming players are shills. Don't take anything they ahve to say serious.

[empty lintel]

Imagine caring how one person or another prefers to interface with a game we all love. It's literally irrelevant and none of your business

[vocal rivet]

If people can't work out why doing stupid PC Master Race memes at a time when there's a patch console players can literally not play is a shitty thing to do, then I've lost all faith in humanity.

[glacial sedge]

valheim mobile when (we need a common enemy)

[gray sand]

Uh... the people who play games at the highest level saying a controller has certain aspects that are outright superior to a KBM is something to consider. 🤷‍♂️
Just for people shit-talking controller players 🤷‍♂️

[vocal rivet]

Already can.

[glacial sedge]

omg rly

[weary lagoon]

professional gamers are literally just gamers who were recognized for their skill, they have their preferences too, theres no objectively superior input method. jut leave it be. dude said a polarizing statement to try to get a reaction and youre doing just that

[gray sand]

Reaction or not, giving an factual reply to help educate his ignorance is something I'm happy to do 🤷‍♂️

[glacial sedge]

i think there are worse things to lose faith in humanity for

[weary lagoon]

its not factual though lol, its anecdotal. theres no factual take on KBM vs controller because its literally just preference...

[gray sand]

Someone doesn't understand how facts work... ok, back to update the meads tab I go.

[azure yacht]

Never seen that report

[empty lintel]

It's literally nobodies business how anyone prefers to interact with Valheim or what peripheral they use. Anyone saying otherwise is displaying some kind of weird fanboyism that's usually the domain of playstation gamers

[azure yacht]

#valheim-patchnotes

[glacial sedge]

Who here is a GAMER! 🎮😝❤️‍🔥

[weary lagoon]

oh the irony...

[vocal rivet]

It's all the same issue with controllers.

[frigid swallow]

controller support helps those with disabilities have access to games they cant play with mak

I believe all games should support controller

gaming should be accessible to all

[opal torrent]

Depends what games

[glacial sedge]

but that shouldn’t be conflated with appealing to all

[weary lagoon]

go play Counter Strike with a controller then...

[glacial sedge]

grehub

[azure yacht]

In other words yes, the bug is still there.

[glacial sedge]

blubfuwub

[empty lintel]

I would suggest that the vast majority of users that use a controller to play Valheim on PC are full able bodied. Quite probably 95%+. So whilst I agree with the idea behind your comment it also kind of suggests that only people who are disabled would choose to use a controller to play Valheim which is obviously a bit bizarre. Presumably this update has broken the controller for all the Steam Deck players in live. So we're talking about this affecting a lot of people

[vocal rivet]

Well, and the Xbox players.

[empty lintel]

Yeah

Lots of people are affected by this

[plush umbra]

I mean, can I submit a report on this bug? and please tell me how to write a bug report
and I saw new items there (at least food preparation table and mMead Ketill) written in English and not translated into Ukrainian

[azure yacht]

It has been reported already, no need to do it.

[glacial sedge]

how many

[woeful dew]

Game added new skills, I boot up the game after update, the new skills dont exist. What

[vocal rivet]

Hundreds of thousands.

[glacial sedge]

I think you might have to perform the skill for them to appear

[nocturne wolf]

Some skills are hidden until you level them up

[woeful dew]

ohhh., makes sense ig

[glacial sedge]

Unhelpful. Give a clear numerical answer.

[vocal rivet]

Noone has that.

[wheat stirrup]

are there any fps improvment with the new patch ?

[glacial sedge]

100 thousand? 200 thousand? I need specifics.

[tacit crystal]

Do some activities like cooking or farming and your skills will raise

[vocal rivet]

Why?

[woeful dew]

ima be honest, after mistlands i quit and never tried ashlands, the mistlands left such a bad impression i quit valheim
idk if its worth coming back now or waiting more for updates

[glacial sedge]

Don’t pry into my personal affairs. It’s rude.

[nocturne wolf]

What was bad about mistlands?

[plush umbra]

understood

[vocal rivet]

Ok just going to block right here.

[woeful dew]

the terraign. u cant hit anything above, or below you, but the terraign is all mountains and hills,

[empty lintel]

Ignore them, they're clearly a troll

[opal torrent]

[empty lintel]

You lasted longer than I did, I've had them blocked for the last 20 minutes

[tacit crystal]

Or Trollfish, aka "nuisance on local streams"

[azure yacht]

Waiting more wouldn't do anything, those biomes are pretty finished

[woeful dew]

im waiting for vertical combat to be fixed Nothing to do with biomes

[empty lintel]

Some of the new potions will help you traverse mistlands

[woeful dew]

i didnt say traversal is the issue, i said u cant hit lower or higher.

[empty lintel]

That'll never be "fixed". It's valheim

[nocturne wolf]

Nothing's broken about vertical combat. Reposition yourself to a place where you can hit the enemies.

[woeful dew]

delusion

[nocturne wolf]

It doesn't work like other games, that doesn't make it broken

[azure yacht]

#general message

[woeful dew]

uninstalled 🤷‍♀️

[azure yacht]

After realising this, I stopped caring that much about it... As annoying as it might be sometimes

[empty lintel]

You may wish the game to work exactly how you think it should but of course there's hundreds of thousands of people who'll happily still play it. I've personally sworn about missing an enemy for the reasons you complain about after playing 1500+ hours of VH but I accept it as part of the game and know it's my positioning that's the problem, not the game

[lyric olive]

Hopefully get some dlc in black forest

[woeful dew]

I think its terrible game design for an enemy mob to stand on a slope hitting you, but you stand and try to hit it but cant.

[vocal rivet]

They don't plan on any DLC.

[empty lintel]

Move?

[frigid swallow]

move up the hill

[lyric olive]

Go away.

[azure yacht]

Enemies can't hit you in slopes either.

I have seen draugr being slightly above a workbench and still miss all the attacks

[tacit crystal]

Why? Derek is correct.

[azure yacht]

Difference is many mobs have either aoe attacks or wider ones...

Which the character also has in the form of some weapons

[nocturne wolf]

Stop thinking about the combat in two dimensions

[vocal rivet]

That doesn't stop people.

[tacit crystal]

Sad but true.

[lyric olive]

He's a dick.

I'm allowed to envision what I want in my mind 🙄

[azure yacht]

Apparently, it's bullshit that enemies can attack you from behind walls but when the player does the exact same it's totally fair

[proud dock]

I've been in fights with seekers were they could attack me from a lower position but i couldn't retaliate

[azure yacht]

You are the one insulting others for stating facts...

[nocturne wolf]

You can retaliate by jumping over them and hitting their backs. Seekers are very short so you can jump over them easily.

[tacit crystal]

What dickish was in his reply?

[lyric olive]

Okay so you're a dick too

Stop dick riding, I have no interest

[opal torrent]

Crazy

[proud dock]

Yeah, but ideally i would be able to just aim at them and hit them. Sad that they don't be fixing it

[fallow parrot]

https://tenor.com/view/jambajew-steve-brule-cool-guy-zone-gif-18457153

[empty lintel]

After you've played VH for a while you instinctively know where you need to stand to be able to hit an enemy. Before then, if you end up standing somewhere that you can't hit an enemy then move

[tacit crystal]

Stating that devs are not planning to make DLC makes one a dick? Thanks for the information 👍🏼

[frigid swallow]

theres alot of tension in the valhiem chat

[candid basalt]

The pizza in England must be very terrible for you to be this way

[nocturne wolf]

What does playing vh have to do with it? Aren't hitboxes the same in all combat difficulties?

[frigid swallow]

waiting for someone to break and get banned

[fallow parrot]

cool guy zone only

[lyric olive]

Idk how people even find these things in casual play. I've never thought about these interactions once.

[empty lintel]

Obviously not otherwise people wouldn't be complaining

[empty lintel]

Fair enough

[sturdy badger]

Who knows what the devs are planning? I mean we do get roadmaps, but they could have things that they are thinking about as far as DLC and just not announce it

[candid basalt]

Hasn’t been a roadmap in years

[nocturne wolf]

They have said they plan on not releasing content after 1.0

[sturdy badger]

I wouldn't have known about big witch dlc last year. But here we are

[vocal rivet]

That's NOT DLC though.

[azure yacht]

The lengths trolls go to in order to victimize themselves is unbelievable...

[sturdy badger]

They could change their minds.

[tacit crystal]

Imagine putting so much energy on that...

[vocal rivet]

They could, but for now the answer is correct.

[lunar sapphire]

Any and all DLC they decide on will be free.
So far the only actual DLC made was the Odin's cape/mead cup and hood for the beta testers of Valheim back in 2020 (perhaps somewhat earlier)

[lyric olive]

Yep which is why it's dickish to assume. I get warned for it because being a dick is fine but calling it out isn't.

[azure yacht]

Let's hope they don't

Why would anyone rationally want to pay for content when we could get them for completely free? The only price we pay is patience and trust, that should be enough

[sturdy badger]

You're still cool with me. Keep hope alive!

[empty lintel]

Give it a rest, no one cares mate

[plush umbra]

-# does the OST count? it's not marked with steam's DLC wrapper and it doesn't affect the game at all but it shows up under downloadable content 😅

[lunar sapphire]

shh now child of the night sky

[lyric olive]

You seem lovely though, you're not a dick.

[candid basalt]

The number of OST I have on steam that I’ve never listened to out of game ….

[lunar sapphire]

I'm simply quoting the dev's words when I say dlc will be free (music aside, someone needs to make a living somehow)

[opal torrent]

What is the point of buying these things I don’t get it I see them on a lot of games

[candid basalt]

Tho I do stream meadows music at my desk when working

[plush umbra]

i own it but still datamined the game to get the music, partially because the OST iirc hasn't been updated since before frost caves, but i could be wrong

[wheat stirrup]

whats the point of buying ost at steam ?

[plush umbra]

so you can listen to the game's music in steam's music player, outside of the game or in other games

[lyric olive]

That's cool 😎 I wonder if valheim will go up in price when it's released

[odd helm]

And supporting the devs~

[empty lintel]

Also to support the devs and the game

[silver radish]

Most early-access games seem to bump their price up a bit when 1.0 hits so it's not off the table.

[empty lintel]

Like merch basically

[glacial sedge]

is there a soundtrack “dlc” for this game

would probably be the only reasonable dlc

[vocal rivet]

Yes, that's what Winter showed.

[glacial sedge]

oh i missed it

[sturdy badger]

Considering the hours I've put in, I feel like they didn't charge enough the first time

[vocal rivet]

Oh, in terms of value for money Valheim is off the chart.

[lunar sapphire]

Payment cost and hours spent are subjective 😛

[gray sand]

No one can put a price on being able to interact with Smiffe 🫂

[silver radish]

[lunar sapphire]

I have free access

[candid basalt]

Valheim and NMS has cost me pennies per hour of enjoyment (and suffering)

[lyric olive]

I dunno about that.

[sturdy badger]

I can't wait for LNF

[empty lintel]

I bought VH on Sun, 4 Apr 2021 when the VR mod released. Played the first couple of hundred hours in VR. The last 1300 hours in flat. Will go back to VR once I get a 5080 soon

[plush umbra]

we all do

[rain flare]

I love my Valheim soundtrack
Listen to it and a few other choice items at work 🥰

[glacial sedge]

i never knew you could pay for pain until i bought valheim

[lunar sapphire]

I'm his favourite Australian Subject 😄

[tacit crystal]

In other words I've paid 0,009 euros per hours I've played this game. Much worth the price.

[plush umbra]

i'm his favourite...am i his favourite corvid? hugin's good competition

[lunar sapphire]

Winter, Corvid of the Mountain

[rain flare]

Not sure, but is Corvid a new type of Corby Pokémon? 🤭

[gray sand]

That's one letter away from Covid of the Mountain 😬

[lunar sapphire]

your intrusive thoughts won

[near furnace]

Do you want another hug?

[glacial sedge]

what happens after deep north? that’ll be all the biomes on the roadmap, and also 9 biomes total which kinda lines up with the whole 9 worlds thing

[lunar sapphire]

SMIFFE!

[near furnace]

[near furnace]

but that's on a wedensday 🤔

[vocal rivet]

Now that's planning ahead.

[lunar sapphire]

wait. did you check the calender for that?

[rain flare]

Question is:
Is Smiffe’s schedule that full? 🤔

[near furnace]

no

[gray sand]

The fact your Wednesday is called "on" brings a whole new meaning whenever you say "on Wednesday" 😄

[lunar sapphire]

The earliest I can schedule is Jan 11th
-# I'm accounting for not having a pc at my place atm

[near furnace]

monday, wednesday, friday 09:00 -> 09:30 meetings.
Monday lunch-ish = short meeting

that's my usual 🤔

[vocal rivet]

It's Odin's fault.

[near furnace]

Onsdag = Odins day

[gray sand]

Smidag = Smiffe's Day? 👀

[vocal rivet]

Same with Wednesday really.

[near furnace]

no. april 25th is smiffe's day 👀

[rain flare]

Thursday is Thor’s day right?
So would Friday be Freyr’s day?

[near furnace]

Freya

[gray sand]

Anywho, it is almost 7 a.m., time for this one to sleep.
Good day to all.

[azure yacht]

It has all music except bog witch (for obvious reasons)

[rain flare]

Night night
No fuling’s bite

Thors day
Freya's day
Lögrdagen (the day of taking a bath)
Sunnans day

[azure yacht]

And I haven't seen a good version of the ashlands music, not even yt (last time I checked)

So steam is my most reliable source to listen to fader's theme bc it's epic af

[rain flare]

Thank the gods the dev’s released bog witch when they did 😂 🤭

[plush umbra]

oh right, it was spotify that they haven't updated yet, most recent track is still H&H

[azure yacht]

That one is especially awful for that reason alone.

So outdated

[rain flare]

Logrdagen and Sunnans day are new to me

[near furnace]

laugō = water / waterfall
it's a old germanic word actually

[rain flare]

We have Smiffe to thank for noticing that the OST hadn’t been updated 🥰

[rain flare]

Fun 🤭

[near furnace]

me?
I am not involved with the OST

[plush umbra]

oh trust me i notice that plenty

i've been complaining about it every now and then for years

[rain flare]

I distinctly remember you saw that the ost wasn’t updated and said you’d do something about it

Next day, ost update 🥰

[near furnace]

ah right

[plush umbra]

meanwhile, over on spotify:

[near furnace]

I just forward your issues, feelings and troubles to the team and/or correct person

[azure yacht]

There's also the thing that the first music disc of the steam ost is mixed up.

I play elder theme and plays meadows instead for example

[glacial sedge]

it knows what you really wanna hear

@rain flare u my goat

Wait. Is this server blocked from using other server emojis? I can't find any but the valheim ones and I know I'm a nitro member

[lunar sapphire]

[vocal rivet]

Thankfully, yes.

[old flint]

Just realized charred twitcher doesnt have s trophy

[light drift]

Damn

Serving tray seems cool. You can just throw consumables around like building blocks

[tacit crystal]

It was quite funny when during PTB Serving Tray could be holstered behind back like any weapon, sad it is gone

[light drift]

Anyone know if I have to start a new file for the update? Or will everything be available in a swamp I haven't generated yet. I still have huge chunk of the map as I'm only in swamp gear in my first swamp. I just don't know if the world is fully generated on first load

[light drift]

Quick draw server

[odd helm]

As always, ungenerated parts of the map should have no issues generating with new content after an update like this~

[light drift]

Thanky. Just don't wanna miss out on feast material 🫶

[velvet stag]

Is the Bog Witch a permanent update, or just for the Halloween season?

[nocturne wolf]

It's permanent. No new seasonal content was added.

[velvet stag]

That is massive, thank you so much!

Now to find her in my no map playthrough xD

[paper bobcat]

Excellent !
Do we have to restart a new map or she will spawn on an existing save ?

[plush umbra]

ungenerated areas can always generate new worldgen content

[paper bobcat]

Thank you !!

[opal torrent]

Does anyone know when in the game the new event comes

[light moat]

New event? Like the raid?

[opal torrent]

Yeah the ghost one

[digital wave]

i love the lil sound effect that happens when u get double harvest

[frigid swallow]

will stone arches direct smoke

[sick echo]

guys my character for some reason "shake" and i can't rest or sleep, he just get up every time

[keen cliff]

Interesting that my settings reset with the update.

[old flint]

I found surtling geysir in meadows..

another one! wtf

[vocal rivet]

Definitely Meadows?

[old flint]

meadows.

[trail pelican]

microbiomes can spawn such that you'll get JUST enough square inches of biome to have these random formations from other biomes in the 'wrong' biomes--like a random swamp crypt just in the middle of a black forest etc.--any larger swamps nearbyish by chacnce?

[old flint]

It was strange because its middle of grass lol

[lunar sapphire]

Valheim is fun though

[lunar sapphire]

My favourite is a troll cave in the meadows (sortve located near a Black Forest but not really)

[plush umbra]

it's not quite a micro biome. or at least not in practice
you might notice that your map/minimap doesn't accurately reflect the terrain you find, at least not in its biome borders. that's because that map shows a more detailed biome distribution while in the actual game, the detail of biome borders gets massively scaled down to the point where biomes that happen to be either too small or in the wrong spot just don't exist anymore.
but points of interest like surtling geysers, guck trees, ruins, dungeons and stuff like that are placed based on the detailed map, rather than the actual final biome borders

if you hover over that place on your map, it'll probably say "swamp", yet when you walk there in person, not a single centimeter will be swamp, because the smallest a biome can be is a full circle with a 64 meter diameter

[lunar sapphire]

TDIL

[vocal rivet]

This is for the best.
