valheim-chat

[thorn summit]

Oh yeah

[gray sand]

Why are you eating only 2 foods?

[thorn summit]

They definitely are.

[gray sand]

HH is always bad when you could HHS... 😏

[random kayak]

But I liked Sword and shield but I am an ADHD riddled idiot so Dual blades... And the occasional switch axe

[plush umbra]

hunting and horn, the only two foods you need

[thorn summit]

This person is based

[random kayak]

But you know what weapon I really liked? HAMMER

[thorn summit]

I LOVE YOU

[random kayak]

HEHE BONK

[plush umbra]

oh trust me, it's the most popular MH game still

[gray sand]

Hearth and Home?

[thorn summit]

Winter tell him what my beloved weapon is

[plush umbra]

seems like it'll sadly change with wilds' release, but i'm sure there'll still be a good playerbase.
not that i really depend on it, i only play with friends

[random kayak]

I wanted to play longsword but I don't like it

[thorn summit]

This person is based

[random kayak]

But I dipped my toes with the great sword and I absolutely SUCKED at it

[thorn summit]

Hammer go bonk :>

[random kayak]

I loved hammer because it's a deceptively mobile

Considering how much stagger and damage it does you wouldn't think you can move much BUT YOU CAN

[plush umbra]

pre-wilds greatsword is the most "MH" weapon, hard to master

[thorn summit]

Can I send you a clip via DM?

[random kayak]

Sure!

[plush umbra]

it feels like it changes every few months

[thorn summit]

... fuck you, you are absolutely correct

Heck I really should get up

[nova tundra]

why, why there is no ashwood roofs whyyyy

[random kayak]

Because it turned to ash

[nova tundra]

XD

but for real ashwood walls are so beautifull give me rofs asswell

[gray sand]

You get tar roofing but no tar walls.
You get ash walls but no ash roofing.

That's the trade.

[plush umbra]

i think they look too smooth and pristine, especially for a material called "ashwood"

[vast jolt]

i like how people complain abt the long updates of valheim then there's exanima

[nova tundra]

but the tar roof is soo much grind

[plush umbra]

is it? few tar pits and you're golden

[gray sand]

Agreed. I use the decorative walls not the smooth ones.

[wintry valve]

I swear, even when I activated godmode, the queen is so hard to kill

[gray sand]

Each tar pit nets you 100+ tar so... not really?

[nova tundra]

what? 100? there is no way

[gray sand]

What weapons are you using?
What food do you have?
Did you bring Tasty Mead?

[plush umbra]

are you actually draining them or just taking the exposed tar off the sides?

[gray sand]

Someone isn't draining tar pits...

[vast jolt]

is this the boss on mistland?

[wintry valve]

yes

[wintry valve]

it doesnt matter what foods I have, im currently invincible

[gray sand]

Someone doesn't know how Stamina works...

[nova tundra]

I mean I was but like over a year ago and I remembered that it gave me like 40 max

[vast jolt]

i get rekt just by trying to go their i have frostner max and fenris head and pants along with root torso

[wintry valve]

fine, I have misthare something, glazed chicken, mushroom omelette on. I have lingering stamina, I am using the demolisher for adds and the mistsword for the queen

[gray sand]

Did you bring Tasty Mead?

[vast jolt]

goodluck fam🤝

[plush umbra]

sounds like you missed some 😅
the amount hasn't been increased and was always around 100

[gray sand]

A single one of the big globs is like 25. And there are usually 3 of them at the bottom.

[wintry valve]

No I didnt bring tasty mead

[gray sand]

Speeds up the fight considerably.

[nova tundra]

thx for info,time for me to head for some grind

[wintry valve]

shes dead. Seriously, one of the most unfun boss ive seen in games.

[shy marlin]

Magic or melee?

[vast jolt]

did u kill it in coop?

[wintry valve]

no i cheated

I activated godmode

[vast jolt]

dmn, as long as ur happy

[wintry valve]

i dont know what possessed them into making this leaping monster that spawns huge amount of ads every five seconds

having five billions hp

[vast jolt]

idk but that seems fun taking on coop

[wintry valve]

Did you take her on in co-op?

[vast jolt]

no, rn were trying to find moder and gettin rekt by cultist behind curtains

[random kayak]

If you eat from a feast is it separate? Or does it take one hunger slot?

[plush umbra]

it takes a slot like any other meal

[random kayak]

Oooh OH COME ONE WHERE IS SHE I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR 4 HOURS AND I THINK I'M GOING TO CRY

[plush umbra]

what makes feasts unique is their extremely long duration and being edible 10 times each.
and, well, being high stat balanced foods

[gray sand]

Deep North adds "fatness" system where if you eat food without waiting long enough you gain weight. 😏

[random kayak]

WHAT THE GLORP IS THIS

[random kayak]

Okay pyrocynical-

[gray sand]

Pyro = fire
Cynical = negative outlook

Uh... meesa no comprehending yousa wordsen.

[random kayak]

I can't tell if you're joking or you genuinely don't know who he is

[plush umbra]

-# you don't need to

[gray sand]

It's a person?

[shy marlin]

it's a youtuber

[random kayak]

No no no don't

[gray sand]

-# If only we capitalized names to show they were names... oh wait...

[random kayak]

Don't extend joke. It's already dead

[gray sand]

But yes, I have no clue to whom you are referring.

[random kayak]

It's 2 am

I spent 4 hours of my life looking for the bog witch and I'm crying

Goodnight

[vast jolt]

dmn, asian?

[wintry valve]

just explore with your boat. The bog witch will show up rather far on your map

Like, find a swamp, circle around it, and then move on to another swamp if she doesnt pop up

[rocky widget]

😮 they increased the flour stacks

[gritty prairie]

yup, life changing!

[wintry valve]

how many could we stack before?

[gritty prairie]

20 if i remember correctly

[wintry valve]

dang

You know whats funny? We can stack 100 barley, but somehow when processed into flour, it takes more space so we can only stack 50 of it.

[gritty prairie]

Loving valheim's logic

[nocturne wolf]

That’s probably because we need to carry large amounts of barley when harvesting.

[gritty prairie]

They love making us build expensive blackmetal chest just to get a correct amount of storage

[nocturne wolf]

Later, more expensive chests should be better, how it is more correct though?

What’s incorrect about other chests?

[plush umbra]

black metal chests are significantly cheaper than reinforced imo, which makes up for them being less space-efficient

black metal's in less demand than iron, and they just cost regular wood instead of fine wood

[gritty prairie]

nothing lol its just that the little wood chests take up so much space in the base that we have to upgrade no matter what we do

[vast jolt]

don't we like need to kill moder first for bog witch to show up on swamps?

[gritty prairie]

You are right, thats why i never made the step to those stinky iron chests

[plush umbra]

no, she only starts selling the handle after moder

[gritty prairie]

I dont think so

[nocturne wolf]

You don’t need to kill anything to find every trader

[gritty prairie]

Thank god, finding them is so hard in the first place, we dont need other diffuculties added 😭

[manic nova]

why cant i pick my onion plants?

[plush umbra]

are they fully grown yet?

[manic nova]

they have the little purple thingies. so yeah?

[plush umbra]

they tend to go through multiple stages

full growth takes 4000-5000 real seconds (sleeping does speed this up)

[nocturne wolf]

If you can’t interact, they are not fully grown.

[cobalt canyon]

Probably not, one timezone ahead of EST?

Greenland/Iceland maybe?

[plush umbra]

mission: find out where snow lives apparently

funnily seems to be somewhere near me

or not at all

[cobalt canyon]

Brazil?

[warm sandal]

tried staff of the wild for the first time... i like it 😄 i would love it much better though if the weather in the ashlands was not sooooo bad all the time 😄

[cobalt canyon]

I'm thinking Eastern South America

[warm sandal]

i would love to see what is going on not just guessing at it 😄

lol windmills are good against squitos did you know.. that is the second one that kill itself flying into the windmill 😄

[upbeat crypt]

powergamer move: don't talk to hugin, sometimes when you're chasing a deer, Hugin will spawn right in front of the deer, blocking its movement

[plush umbra]

corvids are very helpful you see~

[merry pebble]

And we have one of the most helpful ones right here 😄

[odd helm]

the most helpful~

[upbeat crypt]

I personally don't talk to Hugin when he has the burial mound dialogue. That way he always spawns when I get near one, making them easier to find

[wet nacelle]

Has anyone found the new swamp trader? What's his name?

[nocturne wolf]

She's called the bog witch

[azure yacht]

Probably like two or three people

Bog witch

[tacit crystal]

Well she has the helper role for a very good reason.

[errant knoll]

Are putrid holes like troll caves where they don't always contain a Morgen? I don't want to get caught feeling safe to mark them as a night time shelter if they contain one I somehow didn't trigger

[merry pebble]

Yes

[wind mulch]

yup

[errant knoll]

Funny that, right as I was about to leave this hole after getting everything in there a morgen just spawned lol

[merry pebble]

Yeah, they can take a while 🙂

[plush umbra]

dawwwhh hun~

[warm sandal]

something I found helpful in the ashlands carry a hoe and 24 stone... so when you want a semi permanent portal (for raiding a fortress or so) you can raise the ground 3 times three in a row (with some spare for error) and put the stuff up there - out of reach of asksvin and other buggers 😄

[calm compass]

hey, does the full release already have a date set?

[plush umbra]

no

[calm compass]

do u have some idea of when it could come?

[plush umbra]

nope 😅

[calm compass]

sad

welp ill gladly wait some more years if it takes that long

[warm sandal]

why wait the game is so much fun to play right now 😄

[teal matrix]

Facts

[wintry valve]

How do you progress in the ashlands? I cant go anywhere without aggroing everything

[vocal rivet]

Kill mobs, destroy spawners, establish beachhead. Expand slowly.

[merry pebble]

As Derek said. And if you want to go on exploration journey then dont try to fight too much, rather run and leave enemies behind 🙂

[wintry valve]

slowly is the keyword. There are morgen, valkyries and sea serpents 2 everywhere

also I cant really build anything because I didnt think of bringing iron and I cant make a stonecutter thing

[merry pebble]

You can get iron there without stonecutter if you found some molten cores already 🙂

[wintry valve]

those things that blow up when you mine them?

[merry pebble]

No no, new type of core, like the surtling core or black core

[wintry valve]

yeah well I gotta be able to get around to find those

[merry pebble]

If you find a cave look inside 😉

[wintry valve]

I cant find one, I cant get around!

Its like I take ten steps and then theres 4 archers, 3 sword guys, some with stars, a morgen, a sea serpent, and a valkyrie

[merry pebble]

Dont try to fight everything 🙂 you can outrun lot of stuff

[wintry valve]

Well so far, running managed to get me more monsters on me

[warm fog]

Hey does ||queen power|| help protect from fire, especially the ||fallen Valkyrie|| fire attack?

[merry pebble]

No, Yag power gives you fire resistance, but its better to get Bonemass power and barley wine

[warm fog]

Yes sorry I mean Yag!

[merry pebble]

then yes, but the same can be done with barley wine 🙂

[warm fog]

I am thinking to have 1 person do bonemass and 1 yag

or yeah just barley wine haha

[merry pebble]

Eh, not necessary, have 2x bonemass so you can have it longer

[warm fog]

Of course you are right. Bonemass best power, better to have twice

[errant knoll]

Got my first set of flametal, about 70

Also yes, yagluths power is kinda irrelevant for the most part, barley resist wine covers just about all the elemental resist you need for the current final 3 biomes

[thorn summit]

What's the undead dragons power again?

[errant knoll]

Better to use bonemass or queen, once you get queen's power

[errant knoll]

Moders was making sure you can always sail in good conditions regardless of wind for 5 minutes

It has no combat application

[thorn summit]

I mean the ashlands boss

[errant knoll]

Ah, it's an undead dragon huh? Haven't actually beaten ashlands yet so I didn't know

[thorn summit]

FUCK

My bad.

[vocal rivet]

Ptrty much everything is undead.

[errant knoll]

Tbh I don't really care for spoilers that much so dw about it, it's not like knowing its a dragon will help me fight it much

[thorn summit]

Yeah but I like to be considerate.

[errant knoll]

If I'm in valheim chat, I'm half expecting spoilers anyway

[merry pebble]

Tbh, that is quite healthy/realistic thinking 😄

[errant knoll]

I know the risks, it's not like it has a spoiler free tag, or not like we have a spoilers chat.

It'd be like watching s YouTube video on one of my favourite shows discussing its themes and expecting no spoilers - a bit unreasonable

[warm sandal]

sigh the one box outside the middle tower held 35 gold 1 celestial feather and 4 charred bone 😦 lets hope there is one within that holds some riches 😦 it is so slowgoing 😦

[errant knoll]

But ye, I found putrid holes, got my first flametal and there's a fortress right next to it so I'm finally getting into the meat of the biome

[warm sandal]

i wish you more luck with the loot than I was having so far 😦

[errant knoll]

Indeed haha I hope for good fortune too, hope you get better luck soon

[warm sandal]

I need to get my portal inside for savekeeping and then I will climb down the tower and see what i can find

[errant knoll]

...battering ram.

Why do I get the feeling this is going to be not just good for fortresses but also more menial things like mining?

Batter one of those giant stone pillars in the plains haha

[wintry valve]

how do you run away from anything? They run faster than me

[warm sandal]

with lighter armor

but them buggers are persistant

[merry pebble]

I had success even with heavy armor 🤔 tho i also fought some

[wintry valve]

well I get almost one shotted, im not going to wear anything lighter

[errant knoll]

I found I couldn't run from everything in the ashlands even with lighter armor.

Some of those flying enemies are persistent, particularly the massive ones

Asksvin are pretty persistent too

[timber umbra]

all good g hope youre enjoying the game

[errant knoll]

Out of curiosity what are you wearing? A few times I've had to Don my heavy armor to recover my light gear in the ashlands cause that's what I use normally. I found most enemies weren't im the range of one shotting me or even 2 shotting Me, though starred enemies are dangerous (why you have bonemass buff in back pocket)

[wintry valve]

ITS RELENTLESS

[placid copper]

I'd say I am. Just hit Bronze again

[errant knoll]

Yeah, the enemies are everywhere lol.

Have you built the asksvin cloak? I haven't got it yet but I saw it could build it and that would help with running away

Wasn't it updated though to always increase movement speed a bit?

[timber umbra]

we are new to the game too, we have just started the swamp biome

[errant knoll]

The flavour text and description for the cloak doesn't seem updated in my game

[timber umbra]

loogged like 40 hours past 3 days

[merry pebble]

clock?

[wintry valve]

I dont see how having a bit less stamina cost for dodging will help me

[errant knoll]

It's also supposed to increase movement speed a bit, I could sworn the patch notes mentioned it was changed a bit

[wintry valve]

oh, wind run... I thought that was the 15% dodge thing

[merry pebble]

Oh it boost speed masively

[errant knoll]

I typoed and the autocorrect got it wrong lol

[placid copper]

Nice. I'm trying to play with my group but they're barely on so it sucks rn lol

[timber umbra]

give us a message if u wanna play with us

[placid copper]

I'm just playing by myself half the time.

[placid copper]

Uh, sure, but either I'd have to start clean OR I can use my old character that got to Iron tier.

just so I'm close to y'all's level.

[warm sandal]

not the tiniest bit of flametal in this tower 😦 i will have to mine it all myself I am afraid

[timber umbra]

we havnt hit iron yet but im sure we are close

[placid copper]

You hit the swamp right?

[timber umbra]

yes its hard but we are killing a few enemys there

died about 1000 times in there

[placid copper]

That's Iron Tier then. That's where you get Iron lol.

[placid copper]

I can either start clean and y'all help me get some troll hide stuff to catch up, OR I can join with my iron guy just so I'm at your point exactly basically. Outside of actually having iron

[nocturne wolf]

Make sure you’re always rested, and make a few poison resistance meads if you haven’t already.

[timber umbra]

Your welcome to start with us. we have some spare amour from past

we have troll armour u can have till we get you bronze

[placid copper]

I don't want bronze. I prefer light armor

[errant knoll]

Quick tips for swamp and tbh whole game in general but I think the swamp is the first place it really matters.

Don't sleep on food progression and upgrading your cauldron.

[timber umbra]

messaged u g

[errant knoll]

It's arguably more important than progressing your gear when you first enter a new biome

[cobalt canyon]

I've always said my first swamp run is "run in and grab turnip, run out"

[nocturne wolf]

I don’t actively seek turnips until I have nothing else to do with swamps

[errant knoll]

I seek turnips fairly quickly simply because I'll have more entrails than I ever need anyway

And it's annoying to be sitting on loads of stscks of entrails, knowing I can make efficient food but instead I'm stuck with inefficient food like deer stew

[cobalt canyon]

This is actually my second day playing since BW

New run, all normal settings

Ain't died yet (played on jacked up combat diff for too long)

[leaden elbow]

Is it even worth finding a good boar to tame post-bone mass

Also bone mass was so much easier than the elder holy shit that was a breeze

[celest wind]

is there a seed that spawn island is surrounded by mistlands?

[merry pebble]

No they have to spawn at certain distance from centre

[celest wind]

oh alr

[astral dew]

The new clothes that help with farming. When are the available for purchase at Hildir?

[merry pebble]

Because she is the trader that sells clothes Sorry, my bad, after you bring her the brass chest.

[pure blaze]

those fog-less openings in Mistlands, are they intended or a bug?

[merry pebble]

There are places with no fog in mistlands 🙂 its not a bug

[gray sand]

I think you answered "Why" instead of "When" 😄

[pure blaze]

makes sense imo. Good incentive to explore Mistlands more, the visuals are quite a reward itself. Building a base there too.

[merry pebble]

Oh, crap XD

[gray sand]

I brought her the Plains chest first because it was closer than where the Mountain and BF chests spawned.

[merry pebble]

When the bog witch came out i did test what unlocks new stuff for all the traders so i have it written right next to me on paper 😛

[astral dew]

We are currently in the plains. I did not see it being available.

[merry pebble]

Its the chest from smouldering tomb

[gray sand]

Have you clicked on Hildr's table?

It gives you the dungeon locations.
Go, kill, return with chest.
Give her chest, she sells new stuff.

[astral dew]

Ok so we need to do the side bosses

[gray sand]

Yes.

[merry pebble]

Yep

[astral dew]

Ty. That’s what I was looking for. Lol. Going to be a while.

[gray sand]

I have to decide between Mountain base or Plain base 😭

[stray trellis]

Hey just got about 65 iron from my first crypt! What should I make first?

Guessing a pickaxe and axe? I’ve got lvl 3 troll armor

[gray sand]

First 10 = Nails because better boat.

[light moat]

Food prep table as well maybe?

[gray sand]

Stone Cutter and Prep Table yeah.

I usually get my Forge Upgrades built too before I start making actual iron stuff.

[stray trellis]

Oh ok. So don’t immediately make tools?

[stray trellis]

• comfort guessing?

[merry pebble]

more food

[gray sand]

No real need for the immediate upgrade imo.

[stray trellis]

FINALLY! Luckily I searched and settled on an island with mountain/swamp/forest/meadows rn but I’ll eventually tap those resources

[merry pebble]

You will want pickaxe for mountains 🙂 but for swamps you are probably better of with antler pick

[stray trellis]

Wait why not bronze pick

[tacit crystal]

Antler is easier to repair

[gray sand]

Bronze pick is great. People are haters.

[merry pebble]

Eeeeh, you can repaire antler on site in workbench, its not really much faster and you can take 3 antler picks for more durability

[gray sand]

Ok or...

1 pick takes 1 inventory slot and durability lasts pretty much exactly to the point you want to go home to refresh Rested buff anyway.

[stray trellis]

Oh. Well I’ve been just rolling with bronze. By the time I’m overloaded with iron my weight is full anyways unless there’s a carry weight thing I’m missing

[gray sand]

Are you allowed to portal metals in your world?

[merry pebble]

I usually get through at least 2 before i want to go empty my inventory, and you can get rested inside the crypt

[stray trellis]

No

Its vanilla no mods for first pla through

[merry pebble]

Thats the best way you can learn 🙂

[stray trellis]

I may add the farming grid tho

[merry pebble]

Nah, farming is easy with bit of practice 🙂

[gray sand]

Ok this is my method and you are free to play how you want:

Find the first room with a chest in the Crypt.
Leave all iron in said chest. Portal home with all the non-iron stuff when you need to.
When Crypt is clear, LEAVE THE IRON IN THE CHEST.

Repeat until all Crypts in the swamp are cleared.
Bring your new fancy boat with much larger inventory.
Do a "running run" where you go from Crypt to boat to Crypt until you have all the iron loaded. (Eikthyr buff recommended).
Sail it all home in 1 shot.

[stray trellis]

I’ll take note. Luckily the first swamp is about a 2 min run from my base where I set up but I have 3 more crypts I think, then it’s boating time

Is the next boss in a crypt?

[gray sand]

Nope.

[tacit crystal]

No, but you can find a vegvisir inside the crypts that lead to the nearest boss altar

[stray trellis]

Just like elder. Cool

[tacit crystal]

Some ruins also can have vegvisir.

Like in Black Forest

[stray trellis]

I’ve been doing a lot of sprinting through the swamp to the crypts

They’re safer than outside

Will bronze mace work for the boss? That’s what I’ve been using

[gray sand]

Yes. But you can make the Iron Mace to kill it even faster.

[stray trellis]

Mines lvl 3, figured just making it 4 would be similar to an iron one

Then using the next biome weapon

[gray sand]

Or you can make the Iron one and upgrade that to 4 😛

[stray trellis]

Haha

[tacit crystal]

Lvl 3 or 4 Iron Mace has significally more damage than Bronze.

[stray trellis]

Is the boss parry-able?

[gray sand]

Parrying bosses is a waste of stamina.

[tacit crystal]

Yes but bosses cannot be staggered.

[stray trellis]

Oh.

[nocturne wolf]

Rolling and blocking normally are much better options

[stray trellis]

lol thanks

In summary:

• iron nails
• prep table
• stone cutter
• crafting upgrades

Then tools as needed?

Tools/weaps

[gray sand]

Yup.

[stray trellis]

Oh and is the wood armor from the swamp trolls worth it?

[gray sand]

Pick, Axe, Mace, Buckler.

[stray trellis]

Forgot their name

[gray sand]

Worth is subjective to the individual.

[tacit crystal]

I'd say the chest piece alone is worth it in many situations.

[stray trellis]

I’m using troll for now. But I also find myself almost never sneaking (I use arrows a lot, but breaking sneak throws me off)

[stray trellis]

I guess “worth the effort to kill aboms over and over” haha

[gray sand]

Worth is still subjective 😛

[stray trellis]

(Googled their name…)

[nocturne wolf]

Sneaking isn’t the real benefit of troll armor, it’s the 0% movespeed reduction.

[stray trellis]

Yeah, plus bronze kinda is annoying to get

Iron is much more interesting at least, and is 1:1. the 3:1 bronze is a bit annoying with how damn heavy it is

[vital umbra]

helo

[gray sand]

Found a 3-story Dverger building. Mmmmmmm sweet, sweet black marble.

[hollow crag]

Root armour imo not worth it, cuz fernis armour exist and that shit is better

[shy marlin]

harnesk has entered the chat

[hollow crag]

I don't mix and match my armour, and don't like how it reduces damage for like 40% of the attacks

I rather just get 4pc sets effects or armour points

[shy marlin]

But you can't deny that it's not worth it then

You may not like it but you can't deny it's good

[hollow crag]

It's not worth cuz I will never wear it

[vital umbra]

What

[merry pebble]

Yeah, it is great and i personally love it, but why craft it when you will not wear it 🙂 the facepalm is just silly

[hollow crag]

That's why I say it's not worth to farm and craft

[merry pebble]

I am agreeing with you 😉

[hollow crag]

The only real biome that wants this armour piece is like the plains and in the plains I rather fernis set

[nocturne wolf]

It’s very useful for Fader, all of his melee attacks are pierce only

[hollow crag]

And like every other attack is fire

[nocturne wolf]

Resistances override weaknesses, and barley wine is very cheap

[hollow crag]

Not worth it over asksvin set effect

[shy marlin]

Actively misleading players based on personal opinions GIGACHAD

[hollow crag]

"Imo"

[shy marlin]

Should be objective when stating facts and ignore your personal biases

Let them make an informed decision for themselves

[hollow crag]

Facts is fernis set give more armour and one of the best buff in the game

[wind mulch]

its not a fact if hes saying in his opinion...

[hollow crag]

This as well

I mean I prefer actually dodging the attacks instead of tanking it with reduced piercing damage, and movement speed +20 is absolutely massive compared to other armour + weapons usually becomes like movement speed -15 to -20

[hollow crag]

In addition to that you have fire resistance and frost resistance

[shy marlin]

movement speed +20 huh

[gray sand]

So the base movespeed is 222.222222222222222222222222222222222222?

🤔

[hollow crag]

+20% movements speed iirc

[gray sand]

It's +9%.

[shy marlin]

Each set of fenris is 3% per.

[wind mulch]

lmfao

[gray sand]

If 9% = "+20" then that has to be base. 🙂

[hollow crag]

My bad I was thinking of something else

Anyways

I still much rather having more movement speed > root chest piece

[rocky widget]

welp, seeker just turned 5 of my chickens into nuggets

[dark dirge]

how to survive poison in swamp so annoying

[hollow crag]

Log out and log back in

Also dodge rolls, unlike Elden ring you can iframe out of poison

[dark dirge]

thanks sir

[nocturne wolf]

Make poison resistance meads

[misty merlin]

get a root mask, preferably the whole root set, mask gives poison resistance

[merry pebble]

It gives only 50% mead gives 75% 🙂

[wind mulch]

eat it

[misty merlin]

granted but the effect wears off, also you have to prepare it before hand, judging from the question i thought they would want an easy solve

[ebon maple]

guys i just reach mistland , i eat food that gave me eitr , what is that?

[merry pebble]

Oh it does, but the meads are quite cheap and its not hard to make tens of them 🙂

[merry pebble]

Mana basically 🙂

[ebon maple]

how to use it?

[wind mulch]

for magic

staffs

[misty merlin]

you need that to cast powers from staffs

[merry pebble]

Make galdr table (you need cores from mistlands dungeons) thats magic workbench

[ebon maple]

ahh i see , thanks for the info

[misty merlin]

personally i'd just dry run it since iframes are a given :'), but i do agree

[merry pebble]

It is better to be prepared in case you misstime the roll 😄

[arctic lichen]

sup guys

trying to find people to play valheim with on a new server

[gray lava]

do i just suck or is it hard to get your stuff back from inside a charred fort

[merry pebble]

Look in #1024264966712340510 😄

[ebon maple]

do you guys , have any idea how to travel mistland ? why so many rock peak , its so hard even when im rested?

[dark dirge]

what monsters is poison arrow good for

[plush umbra]

anything that it can kill in one shot, like drakes.
otherwise i'd obsidian

each hit of poison completely cancels any remaining ticks of previous poison hits, and since poison arrows only have 26 direct damage, that usually means rapidfiring them makes them about as effective as basic fire arrows

[cerulean osprey]

not been on Val for a few months so I'm wondering where the new food recipes are? Do I half to find the bog witch before getting them?

[misty merlin]

i assume you already have the wisp light, you would wanna build that stamina bar up to be able to climb the rocks, eat foods that give high stamina and bring stamina potions, Eikthyr power

[teal matrix]

For feasts yes, you'll need to go to the witch.

[misty merlin]

and when you are used to the terrain i suggest you raid the bug mines ASAP to get the cores, so you can produce 'refined eitr', thats what you need to make a feather cape. The cape gives jump boosts and removes fall damage.

[light moat]

Turned them straight into a happy meal 😭

[rocky widget]

*unhappy meal

trust me that bug was not happy when i told him what i do to his kind on Hoxxes IV

[wintry valve]

Is there a way to get iron from the ashland?

[rocky widget]

well...technically? sometimes those pots you find drop ingots, and sometimes its an iron ingot

not enough to comfortably farm tho

[wintry valve]

Because I need to build a stone cutter table to build the portal that will allow me to carry all the iron I want

[rocky widget]

really? im 9 short of a full bm chest of obsidian? this game be trollin

[long locust]

the new lightfoot and ratatosk meads are both very helpful for exploration, and like someone else said get the feather cape ASAP

yk, we really need a satchel that just gives us extra inventory slots, but not extra carry weight, that way we can carry a bunch of lightweight things like crops, mead, food, etc. without having to clog our entire inventory

[wintry valve]

The feather cape makes it easier too

[odd kernel]

How do you spawn the bog witches magical living broom?

[wind mulch]

wdym like with commands?

[odd kernel]

Yes

[plush umbra]

spawn BogWitchKvastur

[wind mulch]

spawn bogwitchkvastur

[wind mulch]

u aint have to look it up that fast lmao

[plush umbra]

i was in-game already so i just typed "spawn kvastur" into the console to see if it'd autocomplete 😅

surprisingly, it did. i was expecting the ID to not include "kvastur"

[arctic garnet]

I feel like I woulda done teleportation restrictions different because it bothers me that smelted metal can't be teleported, but metal weapons and armor can be.
I'd allow smelted metal to be teleported, BUT... not surtling cores. Which you need to smelt metal with.

They're these strange... power cubes. That makes more sense to me.
Yeah, portals are made with two of 'em each, but maybe that's what prevents 'em from passing through, like trying to touch magnets of the same charge together.

[dark dirge]

how to kill wraith? so tanky :3

[shy marlin]

Fire arrows are a good option

Wraiths are weak to fire so you could also kite them around a surtling spawner, can also just atgeir staggerlock/parry with mace/sword , but i'd go with fire arrows if you're not super comfortable with fightin them yet

[blazing pollen]

what do I do after i get max copper stuff

bronze

[shy marlin]

Fight the elder and take on the swamps

[blazing pollen]

do I need the beer for that

[shy marlin]

Dunno what you mean

[blazing pollen]

you have to brew something?

[wind mulch]

no

[shy marlin]

It'd be wise to brew stuff, don't necessarily have to though

[blazing pollen]

I’m in hardcore

okay

i’ll see a youtube video on it

[wind mulch]

im sayin elder specifically u can kill easily without much

[long locust]

for the elder you don't really need much, for what comes after though you'll 100% need poison resistance

[wintry valve]

Whoever said that this game is made first and foremost for single player only, I do not think that is true

[wind mulch]

they recommend to play with a few friends

[cobalt canyon]

Just did this today

lvl 2 troll armor, bronze spear, proper food

Parryable w/ lvl 1 buckler

[wind mulch]

try doing it with no armor and just fire arrows lol

[cobalt canyon]

I had a lvl 4 finewood bow

Spear went faster though

[wind mulch]

first time i fought him i didnt even know u could upgrade stuff, i just had a crude bow and fire arrows

[cobalt canyon]

Be curious to see the comparison when skills are raised to 100

lvl 100 bows turns you into a gatling gunner

[long locust]

definitely not, imo the game is best played in decent sized groups of like maybe 4 or so people

[gray sand]

The devs themselves did.

[wintry valve]

yeah well I dont trust them on that. I feel like they decided otherwise with the ashland

[gray sand]

Your lack of trust doesn't change the truth.

[wintry valve]

I dont believe its the "truth"

[wind mulch]

why is that

[gray sand]

Your lack of belief doesn't change the truth.

[wintry valve]

I keep encountering battles that are not reasonable in the ashland. There's just too many of them. I was fending off a morgen, then two 1 star swordie shown up and a bunch of archers, so I decided to flee until it attractes a bunch of voltures. At this point it was just too much no matter where I would go. I think an askvin was in there too. Im sure its possible to fight all that solo, but this is beyond what I expect to be reasonable. This isnt made to be soloed.

[gray sand]

It is made to be solo'd.
As many of us do solo it.

Change your expectations 🤷‍♂️

[wintry valve]

no

[gray sand]

Denial is always a great place to start 🤷‍♂️

[arctic garnet]

Is it still a problem that if you terraform the terrain in a spot with flat spots for buildings like draugr villages, there'll be glitching problems with other players in a server and the terrain will look like it changes back in spots or something?

[gray sand]

I'd ask in #dedicated-server tbh, they would know more about server-specific issues.

[wind mulch]

i guess when i get jumped in literally any other single player game by monsters the games supposed to be multiplayer cause its "too many enemies". the games literally designed to feel like an old school single player adventure game like zelda.

[gray sand]

-# Hookshot when?

[wintry valve]

The first zelda?

[wind mulch]

like the older zeldas

[wintry valve]

how old we talking about?

[wind mulch]

the game was influenced by the legend of zelda and skyrim

[shy marlin]

Valheim players when the brutal survival game they bought starts actually becoming brutal 😱

[gray sand]

Which Skyrim? 😛

[wind mulch]

lmfao

[arctic garnet]

Thank

[wintry valve]

I mean if you talk about old zelda, im talking about the first game and link to the past. Neither were hard like that.

[wind mulch]

do u not understand what i said?

[wintry valve]

not really, no

[wind mulch]

the game was influenced by those games. Its a single player game that happens to have multiplayer

[wintry valve]

I mean I "kinda" see how you'd say its influenced by zelda, with how you need to find the right tool to tackle on the next zone. I hardly see how that relates with me thinking that the latest updates didnt take a whole new direction though.

[wind mulch]

i never said the newest updates havent taken a new direction. i mean its the hardest biome in the game for a reason

[vocal rivet]

Hang on, you're saying that it's influenced by Zelda because it's a single player with optional co-op?

[wintry valve]

I AM saying the newest updates have taken a new direction

[wind mulch]

no

[wind mulch]

whats that direction

[vocal rivet]

Mistlands was a big changer when they introduced magic, I don't think it's taken a particularly big swerve since then.

[wintry valve]

mutiplayer

[gray sand]

...

[vocal rivet]

The game has had co-op since day one.

[wintry valve]

FFS thats a god damn valkyrie

[wind mulch]

correct

[vocal rivet]

I know, that's why I said it.

[gray sand]

Yes, and the fact you can 100% solo the Ashlands means it was made for multiplayer and designed with groups in mind.

[wintry valve]

I know the game had co-op since day one. I was playing this game a bunch of years ago with my friend then. It obviously had co-op. And if you tell me the game THEN was not co-op centric, I would have believed it. At the time mistland didnt exist yet.

[gray sand]

(Apparently)

[wintry valve]

But NOW, we have the ashland. I do not think the ASHLAND is made to be soloed, even if it is possible.

[vocal rivet]

Of course it is 😕

[gray sand]

It is very, very possible.

[vocal rivet]

That's literally how the game is developed.

[wintry valve]

yes yes yall are very good

[wind mulch]

so u think its too hard to be solo'd?

[vocal rivet]

No, it's because it's a SINGLE PLAYER GAME.

[wintry valve]

I dont think its too hard to be soloed, I think... GAH whatever yall, think what yall want.

[vocal rivet]

It's not really what anyone thinks, facts are facts.

[wind mulch]

im asking u dog

[gray sand]

It's not a matter of think.
It is a matter of know.
And your belief that the game is... not what it is 🤷‍♂️ That's between you and your denial.

[wintry valve]

nah ur in denial

[gray sand]

So the entire dev team is in denial about the game they are making?

[vocal rivet]

I don't think it's literally everyone else that's in denial.

[wind mulch]

i just wanna know what u think about the ashlands is supposed to be more multiplayer based

[wintry valve]

I obviously said that word for word yes.

[wintry valve]

Basically because theres a god awful lot of monsters per square inches

[vocal rivet]

So because it's a bit harder than the earlier biomes in a difficult survival game it's suddenly designed for multiplayer?

[wintry valve]

No its because theres a god awful lot of monsters per square inches

[vocal rivet]

So because it's a bit harder than the earlier biomes in a difficult survival game it's suddenly designed for multiplayer?

[wintry valve]

you have a hard time reading

[wind mulch]

harder biome = more monsters = harder monsters = more difficulty

[vocal rivet]

You have a hard time with, well, a lot of things.

[wintry valve]

I dont like you

[vocal rivet]

How can more monsters suddenly change the entire gameplay?

[wind mulch]

i do agree there is ALOT going on in the ashlands lol

[wintry valve]

If you cant figure that out, I dont think I can explain it to you.

[dark dirge]

how to keep the monsters leashed while harpooned they keep getting released

[vocal rivet]

Oh, so it's MY fault your comment makes zero sense, gotcha.

[wintry valve]

I never ever said that

And I didnt ever intended that

[hidden gorge]

you need to have enough stamina

[vocal rivet]

'And I didnt ever intended that' - I can't even parse that sentence.

[wintry valve]

I reword

the words you said:
"Oh, so it's MY fault your comment makes zero sense, gotcha."
implies that is it something I intended to say despite not literally saying that.
One could assume that you assumed I intended to say that. I am indicating to you that it is not the case.
What I meant is I dont know how to explain that properly.

This is not your fault.

In short:
stop putting words in my mouth

[vocal rivet]

I have not put a single word in your mouth.

But I think I'm done with this nonsense. More monsters != now suddenly a multiplayer focussed game.

[wintry valve]

Good, that means we are done here?

[wind mulch]

lmfao

[shy marlin]

Nice

[long locust]

ok yeah that's more a you problem, I meant moreso that valheim has a lot of thought put into how multiplayer can split up roles, it's best played imo in a group, but it is completely possible to solo

[wintry valve]

that sounds like something I said

[vital umbra]

I too solo'd the ashlands, It was worse back in the day 👴.

[long locust]

also, if you're having issues with the game the world options are there for a reason, you can always edit them especially on solo

[vital umbra]

Nowadays its kinda....well whatevs....it still sucks at night-time specifically but i don't find that much issue with it.

[wintry valve]

well mostly im having issues finding one iron, so now I am out of the ashlands to go to some swamp

[vital umbra]

mistlands swords and stuff

[long locust]

yeah, same here tbh, I have had moments where it's been incredibly frustrating, but it was never because of things outside of my control

[vital umbra]

giant remains, whatever the hell they're called...

[wintry valve]

Id rather go in teh swamps

I hate the mistlands, it so hard to move around.

[burnt glen]

Nah, take a stonecutter and break the foundation of those large bridges in Mistlands. Tons of smelted iron ready without mining.

[vital umbra]

See i remember the ashlands being hell on earth in public test...just a few days ago i helped my friends get into the ashlands and i was like...uh....wheere the enemies at.

[long locust]

tbh it's not hard to get iron from the ashlands, putrid holes give plenty, if you're on a smaller island though you may not have enough of those

[wintry valve]

its to make a stonecutter that I need one iron

[long locust]

also, if it's such a big deal to you that you need this single ingot of iron for a stonecutter, you could just enable portaling with metals, get the 1 iron from your base, bring it back to the ashlands, disable portaling metals, and make your stone portal

[vital umbra]

still can get a bit hairy in a moment if you attract too much attention but now i'm just used to it

[wintry valve]

And ive been trying to find them putrid things and I did find a few. I did get one iron, but I need another and I cant find another hole without aggroing the whole niflheim

[kind pendant]

i never knew they provided iron

[long locust]

so far the most unfair thing I've run into was a monument of torment that was inside a rock formation, and I died a few times there because I could not for the life of me figure out why the charred were swarming me there

[kind pendant]

i may have gotten a bit before but not large amounts atleast

[long locust]

yeah, iirc they provide bronze, iron, and silver

[burnt glen]

I'll fight 3x more enemies of other variety than like 3 askvins.

[vital umbra]

i personally found the askvin to be teh scariest to fight

[long locust]

asksvins are the bane of my existence istg, I sprint away to put my shield up and the instant it's up that mf charges me and 1 taps it

[kind pendant]

if you don't get those down in time, ohh boy you'll be getting flooded with charred, luckily I haven't ran into the rock problem yet

[vital umbra]

all the enemies with the batshit lunging attacks, the fenring are actually terrifying in their raid when they're not jumping off of cliffs and you're in the plains...

[wintry valve]

I just would like to tell what was my welcoming party in there. When I first set foot, I saw one of those undead that throws rocks. Fighting it and ended up having to fend, as I recall, one sea serpent, a morgen, a bunch of vultures, archers, and a few charred warriors of which I think a few had one star. I just got there.

[long locust]

yeah, my new strat every time I see one has been to call down a troll on it and let that asshole deal with it

[long locust]

least batshit ashlands encounter

[wintry valve]

Yeah well I have trouble with them encounters and its like... that all the time.

[kind pendant]

yeah happened to most of us

[burnt glen]

Sounds like a meadows experience

[wintry valve]

I can deal with them monsters easily individually except one star warriors

[burnt glen]

One word: Flametal Mace

[teal matrix]

Morgen and warriors can eat me.

[wintry valve]

Yeah well... I dont have that

[long locust]

yeah, but the thing about the ashlands is you're never fighting them individually, gotta prioritize your targets

[kind pendant]

when i got in there, they were taking formation

[long locust]

or blast the fuck out of them with fireballs

[vital umbra]

morgen are disappointingly easy to me.

[kind pendant]

yeah i was expecting them to be more tough, I can easily pack 2 up 😦

[long locust]

true, I thought morgen were gonna be a serious threat but nah they just kinda spin around while I blast buckshot in their facemouthhole

[burnt glen]

They look cute

[teal matrix]

I can't parry em worth af.

Need more practice

[vital umbra]

they're kinda stupid....all these acrobatics instead of any actual attacks lol...

[burnt glen]

You hatin' too much, they just wann roll

[kind pendant]

so true, makes it easier to parry and destroy them, I think slightly higher damage & hp for a base morgen would make it more intimidating

[long locust]

the only time I find morgens even a little threatening is in their caves, and only in a specific layout of the cave that doesn't let me cheese them by going back and forth through a tiny player-sized hole

[teal matrix]

As for charred warriors... I desperately desire their upwards slash on my 2H sword.

Hate the poke.

[kind pendant]

i hate the feint peirce

[long locust]

watching a charred warrior do a feint attack made me unbelievably glad I switched to mage as soon as I hit mistlands for the first time

[wintry valve]

The charred warriors fight like people from Chivalry II

[long locust]

if I were still playing melee and got killed by a feint attack I was trying to parry I'd lose my mind

[wintry valve]

I just stopped trying to parry them

I just block and whack when its my turn

[long locust]

honestly probably the best choice, better to block some of the damage than parry none of it

[teal matrix]

Gotta outpace their incessant death march to deal with the marksman and twitchers. Then I can work on the warriors.

[wintry valve]

Besides, when I parry, it somehow push them too far for me to hit them

[kind pendant]

i think I'll try doing a more hybrid playthrough next, I love melee & mage, can't leave either behind, and it works VERY good

[burnt glen]

I parry both of the attacks tbh

[long locust]

I kinda still do this, I'll occasionally use my berserkir axes whenever I'm really low on eitr and there's an enemy getting too close for my liking

typically a single full combo from the axes will wipe out anything that isn't a morgen or valkyrie, even the asksvins eat shit

[teal matrix]

Our mage always falls back on his arbalest when he gets low on eitr

[kind pendant]

exactly, berzirkir axes work really well too, just a little bit risky to use it sometimes

[vital umbra]

when i get low on eitr, i walk away and wait for it to regen 👽

[kind pendant]

i've really been bugging to do arbalest, just takes awhile to get there.

[long locust]

for mistlands I would use arbalest on gjall, that was about it though

everything else I'd use himminafl when they got too close, if there were a flametal atgeir I'd be using that

[molten hamlet]

any tips for getting a 2 star wolf to spawn? I know running around the mountains at night, and some internet research has revealed they have a 1% spawn chance. I just don't remember them being this rare on my last 2 playthroughs a few years ago.

[long locust]

god, imagine a primal flametal atgeir that knocks enemies back, staggers them, and has a chance to immobilize them

ultimate "get the fuck away from me" reserve weapon

[teal matrix]

Yeah, one of our party members is big salty about their not being a flametal atgeir.

[wintry valve]

I love my arbalest. I use it to take out those purple columns I dont like from far away

[long locust]

starred enemies are more common on higher difficulties, if you feel like risking that

[burnt glen]

If it's just charreds, I think you could prioritize the range guys (marksman and twitcher) before warriors. Valkerye helps to shred them down a bit as well, if Asksvins get involved, I get the Klossen & shield out and start immobilizing shit.

[vital umbra]

what're your guys farming skills at atm

[long locust]

honestly, I did not care for the arbalest much

[random kayak]

Is it bad that I had a bad lucid dream about sailing and then due to the fog I Beached myself near a mistland biome. And my dumbass didn't even know what the mistland enemies looked like so I made it up 😭

[wintry valve]

its quite handy

[long locust]

only 29... wrong reply lmao meant to reply to the farming skill question

[teal matrix]

High 40s, low 50s iirc

[burnt glen]

What were they like in your dreams?

[wintry valve]

you dont need to expend so much stamina and you can shoot on a hair trigger isntead of having to charge the shot

[teal matrix]

Oops, wrong @

[random kayak]

This game has me tweaking- even in my dreams... this is a sign of a bad addiction

[vital umbra]

yoooo peoplesss

[long locust]

pretty sure arbalest uses more stamina than a longbow

[teal matrix]

High 40s, low 50s iirc. Lol

[random kayak]

I dunno weird looking fuhlings

[wintry valve]

not to shoot

[azure yacht]

It certainly doesn't

[vital umbra]

i just reached farming 47

[teal matrix]

Thinking about adding another section of farm somewhere solely for carrot seeds

[random kayak]

You should probably spend more quality time with moder than your fields smh

[vital umbra]

I will, Delayed gratification.

[teal matrix]

But ma fields

[random kayak]

This implies you're also a moder enjoyer

[teal matrix]

Nah.

[vital umbra]

Good, I would have had to spill some blood.

[teal matrix]

So far the queen was my favorite fight

[random kayak]

oh- fighting

[teal matrix]

Good rolling practice

[vital umbra]

huhhh

[random kayak]

[vital umbra]

Yup.

[burnt glen]

Same here

[long locust]

same

[vital umbra]

What a controversial boss, She was my least favourite byyy FAR

[long locust]

my least favorite in terms of difficulty is probably yagluth, mf is a pain in the ass if you don't use the exact loadout designed for him

[kind pendant]

I kind of enjoy bonemass because i like whacking a iron mace at him

[vital umbra]

I rate them by overall, and that includes in my mind aesthetic and placement in progression, both of those the queen falls short of to me..

[long locust]

and my least favorite overall is probably moder, she just feels so underwhelming in between bonemass and yagluth, both of those two are really cool fights that force you to not be a little bitch and actually fight them up close, moder is just kinda shooting arrows for 20 mins until she falls over

[kind pendant]

if you forget a little something or make a tiny mistake, you'd be engulfed in flames

[vital umbra]

do not diss mommy moder

[long locust]

yeah, bonemass is my 2nd fav rn

[long locust]

I love mommy moder I just wish she put up a better fight

[teal matrix]

Only beef i got with Yagluth is meteors. I'm shite at reading em.

[vital umbra]

oh, definitely, its cool until she lands, as much as i do love being stuck beneath her she just doesn't really attack sometimes.

[long locust]

tbh she doesn't really do much when she's in the air either

[mellow lava]

feels good playing valheim and drinking good german mead

[vital umbra]

hi rose

[mellow lava]

sup obi

[wintry valve]

The way I dealth with the meteor when I wasnt hiding behind a pillar is just that I chose a direction and ran toward it.

[kind pendant]

1. queen 2. bonemass 3. Fader 4. eikthyr 5. moder 6. elder 7. yagluth

[wintry valve]

The meteors, as i recall, arent fast enough to fall on you

[vital umbra]

i must go roleplay as goblin slayer, i need more mlack betal

fader > yagluth > moder > eikthyr > elder > bonemass > queen

[mellow lava]

just go drag yag around pillars

[kind pendant]

fader just spammed his annoying attack.. pissed me off

[teal matrix]

True, but I'm terrible at reading em. So I always start running late.

[long locust]

1. queen 2. bonemass 3. yagluth 4. moder 5. eikthyr 6. elder

[wintry valve]

ah

[long locust]

not ranking fader yet since I still need to fight him

[vital umbra]

bonemass is a mid-ass boss idk what ya'll are on about

[wintry valve]

Right, you gotta pay attention to what yagluth is doing

[kind pendant]

it's fun whacking away at him with an iron mace, no?

[teal matrix]

Bonemass as a fight? Mid

Bonemass as a forsaken power? 😎

[vital umbra]

not really, its just something that has to be done.

[long locust]

I love bonemass because he's the first boss I fought in this game that actually put the fear of god in me, eikthyr and elder were like baby's first steps towards a fight, and bonemass (and the swamp in general) was the game's first time actually beating my ass

[vital umbra]

lame telegraphed attacks, slow movement, poison resistance and basic parrying skills and a blunt weapon equals instant win.

[kind pendant]

the first time i did that fight was hell for me too

[vital umbra]

aesthetically, its a slime boss, 😴, the soundtrack is great for a fight thats not an epic boss fight.

[long locust]

no way blud is parrying a boss

[vital umbra]

Of course i am

[long locust]

M2 + space works wonders for your stamina and stagger bar

[kind pendant]

epic the first time, second time, half hp by the time it spawns

[vital umbra]

I hate rolling with the passion of vidar, The only mob in the entire GAME i will roll for is reto.

[teal matrix]

If i hadn't gone into bonemass with my friends with experience i likely woulda got my head beat in the first time.

[long locust]

as a light armor addict I adore rolling, especially on difficulties higher than normal

[wintry valve]

Is iron still useful in the ashland?

[long locust]

I only use parrying as an offensive tool usually to open up enemies to some free damage

[teal matrix]

They made sure we had meads, prepped the arena, etc

[kind pendant]

also isn't it a great feeling knowing you beat bonemass, you can continue to the next biome and leave the swamps behind?

well you still have to come back a lot 😦

[teal matrix]

I feel like Iron is always useful

[wintry valve]

How so?

[long locust]

iron is forever relevant, by the ashlands it's not used in much gear but you still use a ton for building things like ships, furniture, etc.

[kind pendant]

iron foreverr

[wintry valve]

Like, I have about 200 back at my base. I just need one for my portal and start building a house in the ashland.

[kind pendant]

i just wish later game there was a way to get larger amounts of iron just than a swamp

[wintry valve]

Its just that im in the swamp and if im right theres a TON of iron here, I wonder if I need all of it.

[long locust]

gonna go on a trip now to relocate my ashlands fort outpost to a different fort that's near a shit load of vineberries

[wintry valve]

Mistland does have iron, but its so annoying.

[kind pendant]

of course there is ancient armor & swords and other stuff, just not enough

[long locust]

never hurts to grab

at the very least grab as much as you can carry and mark the crypt for later if you ever need more

[wintry valve]

originally I just planned to destroy the portal for this swamp but maybe ill just keep it

[kind pendant]

it can give you a pretty significant amount, just a PAIN in the ass

[wintry valve]

man... this crypt sucked... 16 iron

[dark dirge]

does serpent spawn as long as u are in ocean?

[kind pendant]

16 iron is like a middle finger straight to the face. damn crypt

[dark dirge]

doesnt matter if u are near land or u should be far at land

[kind pendant]

they spawn in the ocean, during rain or the night, aslong as it's the ocean it will spawn

[dark dirge]

thanks

[wintry valve]

To be honest, like I said, I just need one

and now this abomination is running away from me

[long locust]

ughhhh words cannot express how much I HATE brewing the lingering meads

I'm a mage, I already use sap for ALL OF MY FOOD AND MY UPGRADES WHY DOES THE MEAD NEED IT TOOO AAAAAAGHSGHHGHGHHG

[vital umbra]

🤩

[long locust]

I have so many extractors too, they aren't the problem

it's the GOD DAMN ROOTS

[wintry valve]

sap is, at least, infinite

[vital umbra]

my advice is to avoid not having enough.

[long locust]

just slow as FUCK holy shit

[long locust]

atp I think I'm just gonna slap like 5 extractors on every root I find

and just set up a ton of portals between them all

[dark dirge]

if i die in ocean is my loot going to the bottom floor or will it float?

[teal matrix]

It will float

[long locust]

yeah, your grave will float

[wintry valve]

same if your boat breaks, btw. The boat material itself will sink, but the cargo will float in cute little boxes

[random kayak]

I can't find a good supply of Finewood. So portals are going to be off limits 😦

Because birch trees are not as abundant

[teal matrix]

Thought it was only the nails that sink, the hide and wood should float.

[teal matrix]

Wait till you hit plains. You'll have plenty.

[wintry valve]

is discord down?

weird, some of my servers do not respond

[teal matrix]

Think it had a stutter at least

[random kayak]

I mean I can spend like an hour probably stripping the island off birch

[wintry valve]

yeah its back to normal

[teal matrix]

Oaks will also drop finewood, make sure to replant birch and oak seeds till you hit the plains biome

[wintry valve]

I wish there was a button to put away your stuff in nearby chests automatically

[random kayak]

I haven't been doing that 😭

[teal matrix]

While super nice I find it makes me complacent when I get to a game without it

[random kayak]

I need to find a good field so I can plant all my trees

[wintry valve]

The trick is to stop playing other games

[vital umbra]

I found the stuff in the place to get the things i need for the things i wanna do at a certain time.

[random kayak]

Also Vinny why is that pfp so familiar... It's like I watched something like that years ago

[limpid void]

how does instances work?

[random kayak]

And I do mean years like maybe an estimation of 5+ years

[teal matrix]

If ya got a hoe you can make one

[vital umbra]

i get no hoes

[wintry valve]

its a manga for not kids

[random kayak]

Yeah but I live near a shoreline cliff so I can't

[vital umbra]

you know what guys

i am so rich that i am running out of storage space for all my treasure

[random kayak]

"rich"

Dude discord is glorping me over every message I send is failed

And I have to resend it

[vital umbra]

i should probably sell my gems, unfortunately.

[teal matrix]

If ya got a pick you can excavate part of the cliff

[vital umbra]

why do all the traders always look in awkward directions

oh discord is fucked.

[gray sand]

They look in normal directions.
You keep standing in awkward places 😏

[teal matrix]

Yeah, discord is strugglin

[vital umbra]

i approach from directly in front of them and hildirs head is almost looking behind her like an owls, the bog witch is looking into the ground closely studying it, and haldor twists his torso 90 degrees.

i do wish there were like diamonds and other things so i could increase the variety of my hoard of greed

discord hello..

[mellow lava]

my main island is the biggest i ever seen

5 large mountains , 3 plains biomes, 4 swamps , all traders

[teal matrix]

Sounds like a good spawn island

[mellow lava]

if only it didnt take 3 hours to walk around the whole thing

[teal matrix]

Worth.

[vital umbra]

is discord alive

wow, there it is, there, where it is.

[mellow lava]

I decided I was going to walk around my whole island to discover it. I found all 3 traders and it took forever

[wintry valve]

Alright, im ready to take on the ashlands again, with bigger foods, and two irons

Seems like discord is back too

[mellow lava]

All my equipment broke. It was meant to be a small adventure

[teal matrix]

Adventure!

[dark dirge]

do i just afk at ocean to spawn serpent or i need to move the boat

[wintry valve]

I think they can spawn without you moving. I had to be during the night or during a thunderstorm.

And depending on why they spawn, they might behave differently.

[dark dirge]

how do i move ships stuck on land?

[chilly wharf]

Easiest way is to break it and re-build it somewhere else

[gray sand]

Hey, Discord fixed itself!

[chilly wharf]

wow, that was for everyone huh?

I thought I was having internet issues

[lunar sapphire]

Same

[dark dirge]

if i break all materials drop back?

[gray sand]

Yes.

[chilly wharf]

Yes, but the nails will sink. Fine if you are on land, but good to remember if you are in deep water

[cobalt canyon]

You can also try and mine it out

Or use build pieces and push it

breaking it is probably fastest if you have the inventory space

[vital umbra]

I used to think bread wasn't worth it cuz i was so lazy with farming until the skill was released...now i have more than i know what to do with 🥶

[wind mulch]

crafted a pickaxe and got 2 cause the skill

[random kayak]

Farming is so relaxing especially if you have a really big field of it

[wind mulch]

until u see "the ground is shaking..."

[random kayak]

In the plains I'm planning to make a mega bread farm

It's just a field of golden crops

[wind mulch]

is that ur single player world

[random kayak]

It won't be super usable because I'll probably only use 2/10 of the field for general food

[cobalt canyon]

Is it a myth that wind is stronger in the plains or is that actually a thing?

[wind mulch]

no its a thing

ive had campfires blown out cause of the plains wind

[vital umbra]

the tonic of ratatouille is fun

[wind mulch]

tonic of ratatosk? lol

[wintry valve]

You dont need that much bread you know

[vital umbra]

of course not, i meant what i said.

i do want that much bread you know

[cobalt canyon]

They gonna add pizza someday, he wants to be ready

[wintry valve]

viking pizza:
10 flour
blood bag
goatman milk

[cobalt canyon]

Lox cheese

[vital umbra]

aren't there 3 of each health and stamina foods in the ashlands

[wind mulch]

theres 6 health foods

and 3 staminas

[vital umbra]

i mean like food foods

[wind mulch]

then yes

not including cooking the creatures lol

[vital umbra]

piquant pie, mashed meat, fiery svinstew.

[wind mulch]

yeah

[vital umbra]

Spicy marmalade, scorching medly, roasted crust pie.

[wind mulch]

yep

[vital umbra]

So since cooking is more expanded upon i think it would be kinda fun if that existed in prior biomes aswell, an extra of each food item.

[wind mulch]

wym

oh nvm

[gray sand]

I plant Barley 100 at a time so I can harvest and replant 100 and make 20 Bread per 😄

[wintry valve]

we should be able to make beer in this game

[gray sand]

Because 12 different meads and wine just isn't enough...

[silver oracle]

finding a swamp is so hard wth

i found one but only a small one and there’s no crypts

[wintry valve]

I said the same with plains once, and I kept finding swamps instead

[silver oracle]

accidentally found plains, i was like "oh hell no"

and went back the way i came

from what i've heard plains is HELL

[merry pebble]

Oh they are not if you are carefull 😄

[silver oracle]

i might give up on trying to find this biome bruh

[wintry valve]

I remember being annoyed at fighting the mountains. They were everywhere, but none I found were tall enough to yield silver

[silver oracle]

i might as well cheat if i don’t find this biome holy shit

like what the fuck WHERE IS IT

[merry pebble]

Go sailing untill you see biome with tall rock spires 🙂

[silver oracle]

what does it look like?

[merry pebble]

It shouldnt be really that hard to find, biome with yellow-ish ground and only small patches of birch trees, and you can quite often see villages with bonfirest from the sea

[silver oracle]

hm

idk i’m looking for the swamps

[merry pebble]

OH swamps?

[silver oracle]

yeah

[wintry valve]

the swamp is bit further from the middle of the map

[merry pebble]

Then look for tall dead trees and very low ground

[wintry valve]

you have to venture further to find more advanced biomes

[silver oracle]

oh

[wintry valve]

you gotta make a boat

And yeah, the swamp is... huh... its very distinct

[merry pebble]

Again, once you go sailing a bit you should be easily be able o find it 🙂

[silver oracle]

ah, thanks

[wintry valve]

keep in mind that the "donut" of the world where the swamp starts showing up can also have black forest and meadow

[silver oracle]

oh

[wintry valve]

but dont worry, there are swamps all over the place, just venture away and keep looking

You can also use the opportunity to find some copper and tin. Extra bronze is useful.

[leaden elbow]

Why is my framerate when hosting (even when noone has joined yet) 15fps lower than in solo? Any way to counter?

Its not the case for most games

[wintry valve]

Im guessing its because it your computer has to work more to render the physics for more players at once.

Do you know what cpu you have?

[nimble aurora]

hello Chadheim

[leaden elbow]

An i5 13600kf.
Not the best but cpu usage is usually at like 10-20% and gpu at like 80. Also no, read the ending of my msg. Even BEFORE anyone has joined. I join into our base in solo: ~140fps. I go host, wait for my sister; ~120fps. Still the only one in the world.

[nimble aurora]

hey guys, wanting to do a clubs only run

am i disadvantaged compared to swords as there’s not a new variant every biome?

[merry pebble]

sure, why not, every biome exept mistlands has its own 1h mace 🙂

[nimble aurora]

is frostner or porcupine better in ashlands

i have to assume frostner coz of frost and spirit but im not sure

[merry pebble]

tbh probably frostner, but swords are much better there

[nimble aurora]

yeah thats the only thing im worried about

coz porcupine does pierce and charred resist that

[cobalt canyon]

Porcu's a crappy weapon

[nimble aurora]

its just that ive used swords for my last 4 playthroughs and wanna switch it up with something that wont mentally cave in my skull (spears)

[merry pebble]

I also go with swords most of the time, this playthrough i use atgeirs tho 🙂

[cobalt canyon]

I keep both mace and spear handy

[nimble aurora]

i wish ashlands had an atgier

although mistlands already had a lightning atgier so

[merry pebble]

More weapons are waste of inv slots imo (its mighty rich comming from a guy carrying cultivator everywhere but i stand by it xD)

[merry pebble]

Yeah i cant wait to use it 😄

[cobalt canyon]

Not with resistances being what they are

There ain't much that's resistant to both blunt and pierce

And alot thats weak to one of those

[nimble aurora]

it is very fun

[merry pebble]

One weapon is enough 🙂 most of the time it just means 1 or max 2 more hits you need to do

[nimble aurora]

a lot is weak to blunt but only trolls are weak to pierce

[merry pebble]

Only time it really matters is against "troll lvl" enemies and bosses

[cobalt canyon]

The movesets also work on different guys pretty well

Spear works very well on moder, mace doesn't

[nimble aurora]

atgiers are amazing for plains and black forest

[merry pebble]

Mace works great also (iron mace that is)

[nimble aurora]

all the horde type biomes

[random kayak]

Maxed iron armor 💪

That means if a stray mosquito i'll only die in 2 hits

[nimble aurora]

root harnesk

[merry pebble]

Why iron armor in plains? Why not wolf armor?

[nimble aurora]

ik its ugly as fuck but it’s actually op

[nimble aurora]

i sometimes go into plains early with iron, lox cape is easier to get and upgrade

[random kayak]

I said stray mosquito because sometimes I see them at the border

Speaking of which I need to sail until I can find the bog witch....

God this is going to take 5 hours

I've circled multiple swamps and not a single bog witch

[cobalt canyon]

Bonemass altars

[nimble aurora]

i mostly find bog witch in the same swamp as bonemass

[silver oracle]

I got 70 Iron from a sunken crypt, damn

[nimble aurora]

coz they’re usually larger swamps

[silver oracle]

Scrap Iron, in fact

what do you do with scrap irons?

[nimble aurora]

me who once got 10 iron from one crypt (no chests)

[random kayak]

Oh really? My bonemass swamp is actually in the middle of a super continent

[silver oracle]

daaaaaaamb

[nimble aurora]

i dont think its an actual game mechanic, thats just personal experience

[random kayak]

Like MIDDLE not even near the edge just straight Middle

Most swamps I found tend to be on the edge but this swamp somehow ended up in the middle of a giant landmass

[cobalt canyon]

I spotted a sealed tower before finding Hildir on my current world

[random kayak]

Miss bog witch I just want your ingredients PLEASE

[random kayak]

Are sealed towers hard?

[cobalt canyon]

Might raid that for iron later

[nimble aurora]

if youve never done one before and youre in iron, yes

[cobalt canyon]

Eh. Last time I did one my combat was modded to all hell

[nimble aurora]

but late game its a great source of iron

[cobalt canyon]

Couldn't really say

[random kayak]

I've never seen them plus I'm max iron so I dunno if I can take one

[nimble aurora]

especially since it’s already smelted into bars

[merry pebble]

Crypts still remain the best source tho 🙂

[nimble aurora]

i would wait til you have fire resistance

as long as you have bonemass power and fire res you can pummel the tower with just iron

[full dirge]

has anyone experienced exploding ash land stair when walking on them? it dose enough damage to kill a fully loaded Ashland setup

[merry pebble]

Ashland star?

[nimble aurora]

i would do it earlier on tho because its the only way to get chicken eggs before defeating plains boss

[silver oracle]

i got 70 scrap iron, is it enough?

[full dirge]

stair

[nimble aurora]

nooooo try 300 🥲

[cobalt canyon]

Never

[nimble aurora]

300 will get you through swamp

[merry pebble]

Exploding stair? Also doesent ring a bell

[nimble aurora]

yeah neither

[silver oracle]

how much will i craft with 70 scrap iron

[full dirge]

hmm

[nimble aurora]

for reference, one item costs 20 iron

[cobalt canyon]

20 for pick, 45 for forge upgrades, 10 for buckler

[cosmic igloo]

lmao "thor bestows a gift upon you", gives me 5 coal.. ya thanks thor

[cobalt canyon]

20 for mace

(10?) for spear

[nimble aurora]

dont make the smiths anvil, try get the forge bellows first

way cheaper

[cobalt canyon]

And forget the bow

[random kayak]

I don't even use buckler

[nimble aurora]

huntsman bow > spear bruh

[random kayak]

I use the banded shield because of the drip :3

[merry pebble]

Can you send a screenshot of what you mean in #screenshots ?

[nimble aurora]

theyre pretty on par ngl, not a drastic difference

[nimble aurora]

if you use bows, the huntsman bow is a must

[random kayak]

Dripped asf 🔥

[tepid prawn]

For some situations the best bow in the game…

[nimble aurora]

i wish bucklers could use patterns 🥲

[nimble aurora]

especially for fuling villages, unless youre a fan of ganks

[silver oracle]

i’m using clubs and shields

[tepid prawn]

Goat for that

[random kayak]

Tbh the bows I never interacted AT ALL that much because I prefer going into the dirt and stabbing my opponents

I didn't hear no bell

[nimble aurora]

bows are only really viable if you have like more than 40 skill

otherwise the stamina usage and draw time is too inconvenient

[silver oracle]

maybe i’ll make a club and shield then go back for more

[cobalt canyon]

Wise

[nimble aurora]

mace and shield, upgrade them both and if you can, make the longship too

[tepid prawn]

I never limit myself to just 1 weapon

[nimble aurora]

especially if youre getting ore across the ocean, it has WAYY more storage

[cobalt canyon]

Y'see? This guy gets it

[nimble aurora]

yall dont even know the hoe is the ultimate weapon

[cobalt canyon]

[silver oracle]

Then i guess a longship will do

[tepid prawn]

I build islands, I know

[silver oracle]

i got like 70 iron so i guess i can make a longship

[nimble aurora]

mace lvl 2 will be 30, buckler lvl 2 will be 15, then longship is another 10

[tepid prawn]

Iron for me: stonecutter, pick (stag silver etc), longship then a Weapon

[nimble aurora]

so youve got 25 to spare

[silver oracle]

found out a weapon thats called the porcupine so maybe i’ll craft that

[random kayak]

Ball on it for a helmet (jk)

[nimble aurora]

its…alright

[tepid prawn]

I need stonecutter urgently so I can put smelter in a swamp treehouse and hearth

[nimble aurora]

hearth my goat

[silver oracle]

hm?

[cobalt canyon]

Meh

[random kayak]

Porcupine is an intimidation tactic

[nimble aurora]

its not really worth it, youre better off just upgrading the mountains club

[silver oracle]

also found out the frostnar, idk how to craft that

[random kayak]

After Bonemass

[nimble aurora]

you need an item from the trader

[silver oracle]

ooh

[tepid prawn]

You need something from haldor for it

[merry pebble]

For plains its alright, for mistlands.. you can work with it but there are better options

[nimble aurora]

have you found haldor yet?

[cobalt canyon]

Hearth got a lot more useful in BW

[silver oracle]

nope

[nimble aurora]

bw?

[cobalt canyon]

Bog Witch

[random kayak]

I'm not going to craft frostner this playthrough because I overused it last time

[nimble aurora]

ohhh yeah true

[cobalt canyon]

Not possible.

[random kayak]

I'm so tired of hearing it

[nimble aurora]

u can fit ketill, iron cooker, 5 wood cookers and cauldron on one hearth

[tepid prawn]

I haven’t played with frostner for the last 7 or 8 play throughs

[nimble aurora]

neither

[random kayak]

It's cool but I just don't think I want to use it this playthrough

[nimble aurora]

swords are too cool

[cobalt canyon]

Any yall ever speedrun some fenring armor early game?

[tepid prawn]

Currently doing hybrid with HSE food and staff of prot and wilds and primal axes

[nimble aurora]

i use root harnesk, too scared of cultists ngl
