[near furnace]

And of course. Less players, less damage it does

[noble axle]

When Deep North comes out, would it still be possible to beat the bosses in reverse order or are you guys going to prevent that? 😦

[regal spoke]

Of course not. But it's really easy to do with ten or more players. Which a fair amount of servers host. Then to consider many people use up materials and leave the server. Or if a group wanted to come up with ways to live in a world for a duration.

[near furnace]

You're not suppose to be able to reach Ashlands without the correct tool 😅

But players finds a way

[craggy niche]

-# Need to try riding deer to Ashlands

[regal spoke]

I want to raise a pack of sled hogs 😁

[onyx lava]

And i want to fight a pack of hedgehogs!

[regal spoke]

Shaking the bush boss

[near furnace]

No hedgehogs involved

[onyx lava]

That's okay. We don't like em anyway!

[robust delta]

buncha hogs that live near hedges

[onyx lava]

and most of em are yella bellies!

Imma chomp on my freshly cultivated first carrot produce!

Take that hedgehogs!

[tacit crystal]

Wondering what will be required to get into Deep North then, that remains to be seen. 👀
And if some players find a way there too.

[near furnace]

nah

no players will ever find it out

[ancient agate]

Sorry if I have asked this here before. Is there a way to remove the "Shallows" from Valheim World Generator maps?

[near furnace]

shallows?

[ancient agate]

It's what the generator calls anything below the typical water level, but not deep enough to be ocean. It's a bit annoying because that information is only useful if you don't care to check elevation yourself and obfuscates what biome you're actually traversing, albeit by boat

[merry pebble]

Only if you select the biomes only option and then assign them the same color as ocean

[ancient agate]

That, unfortunately, won't change anything. It will still falsely remove underwater portions of other Biomes. Why they even added "Shallows" instead of just a color gradient for below sea level is beyond me

Well, one more thing that only exploration can accomplish. At least sailing is fun

[golden granite]

Had a raid where it said "you feel a chill down your spine" and a wraith was in my base wtf is that

[merry pebble]

New raid from bog witch update 😄

Ghosts and wraiths

[golden granite]

I see, scared the shit Outta me lol

[shy marlin]

Is that a challenge 😏

[merry pebble]

So you really felt chill down your spine heh? 😄

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/gold-squadron-gif-21777233

[golden granite]

I did lol

[near furnace]

Gold medal to you @shy marlin if you manage 😄

[onyx lava]

Helllo

[shy marlin]

We’ll see when deep north comes out but I suspect it’s gonna be a hardlock

[near furnace]

how?

give me ideas so I can hard lock it 😄

[craggy niche]

Looking into launching boats from catapults. Search results only show me catapults on boats. Where the boat-launching-catapults?

[onyx lava]

And then someone shouted who let the boars out!

[shadow void]

me

[near furnace]

I mean yes

I'd love that

but

[shadow void]

i let the boars out 🐱

[craggy niche]

I see one yes and zero no.

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/extreme-water-blop-bounce-jump-water-gif-3394318

this would be fun

[nocturne wolf]

You spawn with a cheat sledge and try to kill the player if they haven't killed all previous bosses

[normal vine]

do any of you possibly know how to keep my drakkar secure so that bonemaws may not attack it?

do i have to deconstruct it after every use?

[gray sand]

Turn the heat on the water up like 10x. Problem solved. 🙂

[near furnace]

now that's easy 🤔

[shy marlin]

All you’d really need to do is make freezing cold water but with nothing that you can jump onto while doing the sailing and it’d be hard locked

[nocturne wolf]

Unless someone is willing to ride a volture all the way there

[shy marlin]

Also have to consider any catapult launching shenanigans, but that requires moder so yea idk

[craggy niche]

Reduce the carry capacity of vikings to 1/5 (60 from 300 or 75 from 450 or ...). Alternative increase the weight of all items by 5x. See how far they get while overencumbered.

Throw in some blizzards and faster wolves just to be mean.

[onyx lava]

I want a catapult launching catapults!

[near furnace]

Hm..

freeze the players inventory? 😄

[noble axle]

no!

[nocturne wolf]

Freeze their screen

[noble axle]

it would still be possible

[craggy niche]

If you want an excuse for an invisible wall, I think it would be gravity play (attraction, repulsion) with some (semi)visible force fields. Can play with some mass/physics there too.

Also could play into whatever the magnetic polarity of flat circle world is like

[onyx lava]

Delete their save!

[light moat]

#screenshots message @tacit crystal this the second time I’ve seen an altar like this 😂 nice build though, good backdrop!

[tacit crystal]

I have a faint memory I might have shared that some time before the Ashlands but this time I decorated with the feast, which suits well. 😁 Glad you like it!

[onyx lava]

Elder time

And guess who forgot the seeds

[vapid rapids]

Just 2 vs. 1 two trolls, one with 1* and and a log. Win.

[noble axle]

nice

[plush umbra]

I always do that too lol

[onyx lava]

Now im running around this new forest in the rain whomp whomp

Lol near a greydwarf seed and a 1 star skelly chasin me, a two star greydwarf spawns in front of me but skelly swings and hits him in the back, kills him, i heavy swing and 1 shot the skelly. The Circle of Death.

[normal vine]

anyone knows if there's a way to get smelted iron bars in the ashlands?

(i need to get a stonecutter there so i can craft a stone portal)

wait, there's iron in the pots

[merry pebble]

i think you can get some in the putrid holes 🤔

[normal vine]

i just remembered

[merry pebble]

Or you can make the stone portal at home, connect it to wooden in ashlands and take iron there from base 🙂

[normal vine]

they're interconnectable?

[merry pebble]

Yep 🙂

Any portal will connect to another if it has the same name, doesent matter if its stone or wood

[normal vine]

very interesting

[onyx lava]

Well the forest is now elderless

[normal vine]

.

[onyx lava]

Not at all

my map is beautiful massive inland lake with 1 river leading to the ocean

[gray sand]

For now. Elder to be summoned whenever you want to speed-train your block skill 😁

[noble axle]

me & my friends summoned 3 Elders for a wood farm and it turned out great 🙂 so that can also work

[nocturne wolf]

Why stop at three?

[noble axle]

I am not sure exactly why we stopped at 3, maybe because we didn't have anymore seeds idk lol

[onyx lava]

Jeez man just 3.

[tulip patrol]

Tried to convince coworkers to play valheim
Their response "graphics are bad"

[sinful fulcrum]

what shield to use tho

[sinful fulcrum]

nah never coworkers

[nocturne wolf]

A tower shield is best for blocking many attacks in a short time because of its low stamina cost

[sinful fulcrum]

only close friends

[sinful fulcrum]

does it matter the strongest? or it can be any?

[gray sand]

Specifically for training?
Serpent Tower Shield or better.

[sinful fulcrum]

ty, oh right, he has piercing

[nocturne wolf]

Any normal shield or even a buckler from late enough in the game will work well too

[gray sand]

Your goal is to position where you can get hit by his ranged attack while getting smacked by as many Roots as possible.

[tulip patrol]

Wouldn't taking a shield and just continuously blocking against skeletons work as well. Seems less dangerous too

[nocturne wolf]

Faster hits gets more skill

[onyx lava]

oh oh question, how does the star system work for creatures in the meadows is it based on length of play

[sinful fulcrum]

elder not going to kill you

the piercing resist + high armor or askvin is just fine, finally leveling blocking to parry a 2 star charred warrior without using bonemass

[plush umbra]

boars and necks cannot have stars if they randomly spawned within 800 meters of the world's center.
if they spawned from the invisible one-time spawners around a boar runestone or abandoned village, they can have stars.
if an enemy can have stars, the chances are 9% for 1-star and 1% for 2-star.
length of play doesn't affect difficulty, spawnrates or anything like that in any way currently

[onyx lava]

Does that go for Deer too

[plush umbra]

deer afaik don't have the distance restriction, lemme double check

yea they don't

[onyx lava]

ok havent seen a 1 star deer near starting area so wasnt sure if it was time or distance, ill keep my eye out. (I have a mod that adds boats and they need 40 hide to make a sail)

[plush umbra]

well it's a 90% chance per deer for it to just be a regular one, can get unlucky for quite some time 😅

[onyx lava]

my thoughts exactly

[feral parrot]

When you find hildur, you can’t unfind that location and hope to find him somewhere else, right? Mine is located on the smallest sliver of BF, Meadows but completely surrounded by plains and the ocean. I can’t even dock.

[onyx lava]

Swamp here i come

[plush umbra]

the only way is to restore a previous backup of the world

[feral parrot]

Well bummer. Guess I’ll try naked and hope for the best

[sour furnace]

?? Boats are in the base game

[onyx lava]

Yes and I am using the base game boats

[plush umbra]

the Skelly raid is the best block trainer I've encountered so far. just line yourself up with your back to a wall or smth and let them go nuts

[onyx lava]

First item you make out of Iron?

[plush umbra]

mace for me

or the round shield

[onyx lava]

I got the ||razor knife|| early and that kills most things in the swamp really quick and its fast enough i can dodge if they dont die outright

even kill trolls quickly with it

Shield sounds good though

That or the hunstman bow

[merry pebble]

Nails

[noble axle]

Pickaxe

[merry pebble]

Nails, since that way you can transport way more iron

[noble axle]

use portals instead of sailing 🤷

[foggy galleon]

Hello! I really love Valheim, but I get a little bored playing alone. I would love to create a server where 3-5 girls can play together. I live in Europe, so it would be nice if others from Europe joined too. If you're interested, please like my message, and I will DM you. Thank you very much!

[foggy glacier]

sure, if you're modding. Can't portal iron in vanilla

[merry pebble]

Not without world modifiers 😉 some people dont want to play with them (but yeah, if you play with them then probably upgrades for workstations i would say)

[noble axle]

I guess vanilla modifiers counts as modding? also no Idea why you wouldn't turn that option on but ok

[vocal rivet]

They definitely don't, no.

[merry pebble]

Because people enjoy sailing 🙂

[onyx lava]

You can change that before world gen now, in the vanilla game

[noble axle]

Sailing is fun, but not having to do it every time you bring a material home

[foggy glacier]

thanks, good to know.

I missed that option.

[regal spoke]

I bring my smelting op with me. I don't want to use the slider. But enjoy the time savings

[merry pebble]

Even after the world is made 🙂

[onyx lava]

Oh didnt know that was changeable i didnt even try 🙂 maybe ill change the resources (grindy on my own)

although the new skills help

[merry pebble]

For sure 😄 you can change it anytime you are in the world select menu

[onyx lava]

epic

[cosmic summit]

What's a good name for a fort built on a small peninsula of black forest on thr edge of a large patch of mistlands?

[onyx lava]

Mistwatch Fort Or Keep

[lofty valley]

Mom's house

[onyx lava]

Mist Queen's Hold

[cosmic summit]

I'm thinking maybe Trolls End Fortress

I was calling it mistwatch for awhile

[onyx lava]

I like Mistwatch but might be better if it was in the mistalnds, trolls end is good.

[trail pelican]

trollbane keep

and put one of their heads on a pole, just for good measure--just in case any of the other trolls get any funny ideas!

[onyx lava]

Approved

not that my approval was needed but you got it

[limpid vigil]

I am once again appealing to the devs to make a proper Västkust biome

[merry pebble]

The biomes currently in game are the ones we will get 🤷‍♂️

[vocal rivet]

The only biome we're getting next is Deep North.

[onyx lava]

Atgeir good for Mountains -> Plains -> start of mists

[merry pebble]

Atgeir good for Valheim. 😄

[onyx lava]

ok

I am going to call you out and say right you are sir, well played

[noble axle]

Iron Atgeir can be used up to Mistlands from the Swamp, then when u get the last atgeir u switch to the Himmanfl which is amazing for the rest of the game

[merry pebble]

There is pretty much no reason to not upgrade to BM at that point tho 🙂 and to himinafl in mistlands

[shy marlin]

Atgeir good for blackforest -> swamp -> mountains -> plains -> mistlands -> ashlands -> probably deep north

[noble axle]

supposedly they are gonna release all weapon types in Deep North so it will be good there too... hopefully

[merry pebble]

Yep, from the point you get them they are great 🙂

[nocturne wolf]

I want the next polearm to be a halberd so we can chop trees with a 360° hitbox

[shy marlin]

lmao that sounds so goofy but i love it

[onyx lava]

other then the platform method lets say i wanna just face tank bonemass with iron gear, should i max it all first

[nocturne wolf]

If you have a level 3 shield and good food you should be ok

Unless you mean taking unblocked hits, then you’ll want maxed iron armor

[onyx lava]

Im not the best blocker but im not the worst im sure ill die once or twice im ok with that

[tacit crystal]

Blocking is easy, just keep shield raised as you prepare to take hits in and keep an eye on stamina and stagger meter.
Parrying tho, is more about timing the block just before the hit connects you, implicated with loud klank noise, which blocks more damage and staggers the attacker but also drains more stamina.
However, parrying bosses is not effective as bosses are immune to stagger, but blocking works.

[onyx lava]

Awe ok I was thinking Parry

So just iron mace and beat up bonemass? i have 100 iron ingots (after making tier 1 everything, including tools and upgrades)

[ancient agate]

Even though you can't do additional damage to bosses by using parry, it can still help you take less damage, despite the higher stamina trade-off

[shy marlin]

yep iron mace will be great

[onyx lava]

I have killed him before i just remember it being tedious and dieing all the time

[shy marlin]

iron mace is also a great investment for the next biome so 👍

[onyx lava]

but that was 3 years or more ago

[tacit crystal]

That's true, but none of the bosses on normal difficulty deal that much damage that their attacks couldn't be blocked with regular blocking, upgraded shield and enough HP (the usual current best HHS foods), maybe except ||the Queen's dual claw attack||. At least in my experience of the game.

[noble axle]

I'm sure with a lvl 3 carapace buckler, 100 blocking, 2 hp foods u could parry anything in the game, for sure with 3

[ancient agate]

I find Moder's bite is worth parrying, but IDK

[tacit crystal]

Not sure about ||Lord Reto||.

[onyx lava]

Huntsmen and fire arrows to ensure he doesnt regen and of course the game knows whats about to go down, massive storm

[noble axle]

I shall try it rn

also is the spawnable ||Reto|| with commands the same one thats found in || his tomb|| because he doesn't have 2 stars and I am able to parry him with 2 hh foods

[gray sand]

Fire Arrows

[tacit crystal]

He spawns with 2 stars normally, so normal ||Lord Reto|| with commands is much weaker than the one ||in tomb||.

[noble axle]

yea I figured so Imma need to make another world to test then

[ancient agate]

Isn't there a way to spawn in mobs with stars from commands?

[noble axle]

not for || Reto || because it spawns multiples of him

[onyx lava]

WAY easier then i ever remember ||Bonemass|| ive had 4 combos on him and his at half already

[vocal rivet]

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to spawn in the starred version.

[noble axle]

if you try it spawns multiple of him, being starless

[vocal rivet]

What are you typing to do that?

[onyx lava]

Bracks |

[noble axle]

spawn charred_melee_dyrnwyn
spawn charred_melee_dyrnwyn 3

[onyx lava]

oh lol wasnt reading convo while fighting

[vocal rivet]

So you're spawning 3 then.

[noble axle]

1 starless or 3 starless

[vocal rivet]

3 is the quantity. So you'd want spawn charred_melee_dyrnwyn 1 3

[noble axle]

ye i just figured that out

[clever brook]

does batch cooking give less XP or is it the same?

[onyx lava]

||Bonemass|| gone

[gray sand]

Same.

[noble axle]

nice

[gray sand]

HE KILLED BONEMASS

[clever brook]

so like, it still counts all the stuff I cooked even though I only clicked once right?

[gray sand]

Yes.

[clever brook]

marvelous, thanks

[shy marlin]

WHATTTTT

[gray sand]

HE LIKE ||KILLED|| BONEMASS DUDE.
TOTALLY ||RADICAL||.

[onyx lava]

Oh cmon guys ||we dont want to make others jelly||

Double pun right there

[regal spoke]

Big skill expression!! Let's go

[gray sand]

*Scale expression.

[regal spoke]

No scale issue here to be sure

[onyx lava]

Wow guys if you ||have a whole in wall small enough for piggys but not for the boars|| then they run all over and you can really have lots of boars easily

Rofl love this community you guys are GOATS

[shy marlin]

[plush umbra]

[plush umbra]

yes we can

[regal spoke]

[tacit crystal]

[plush umbra]

feeling a little sick, and had a rough day besides that, hence why i haven't been around much 😅

[gray sand]

[shy marlin]

no cause what was the name i forgot

[noble axle]

I figured it out

[onyx lava]

Yeah cause your the only helper lol

[gray sand]

It was either Scale Issue or Scale Expression 😄

[noble axle]

with all 3 hp food, carapace buckler lvl 3, and 100 in block u can perfectly parry || Reto ||

[regal spoke]

Here's to feeling better and having an awesome evening Winter

All is well in the world now

[onyx lava]

Hmm and now my game (even with the head on the pole) says i havent killed the first boss... well thats easily fixed

[sinful fulcrum]

Is there a stamina reduction armor for mining like there is for farming?

[gray sand]

No.

[shy marlin]

no but there is queen power

but queen power works differently so idk

[noble axle]

queen power lets u do more dmg and gives u eitr regen

is there a way to make minibosses fight world bosses without mods?? 🤔

[shy marlin]

no

[pliant hatch]

Some of Hildir's "common" clothing give a stamina reduction for actions as well.
Not sure if it's a good idea to wear those when going mining, as they don't have any armor protection, but it's something you can consider using.

Other than that......

If you're in a very safe environment, use tasty mead to speed up your stamina regeneration.
And of course, as always...... Make sure you're rested.

[sinful fulcrum]

hmm, lingering stamina did help

I kinda want to build with grausten but since black marble is so aesthetic and has elemental immunity its just worth the grinding

[regal spoke]

Does grausten hold up to refinery/eitr damage

[pliant hatch]

I don't think you need to grind for Grausten.
You will find so much when fighting in the Ashlands, you will just remove it from your inventory because you already have too much of it. 🙂

[tacit crystal]

I think grausten pieces are not fully immune to the projectiles of Eitr refinery and the refined Eitr.

[regal spoke]

Ok. I'll have to address that. Thanks Joelkkii

[tacit crystal]

Especially if you let lava blobs do the mining, on top of a floor of any ruin and the explosion breaks all pieces underground and many stacks of grausten just pops up.

[onyx lava]

Rofl Some graydwarf pushed me back through my portal, talk about "you shall not pass"

Still no easier way to break down a boat then axing it?

[sinful fulcrum]

I meant grinding on black marble

[vocal rivet]

It's intenionally hard so you can't do it by accident.

[onyx lava]

Yeah i thought that part through 🙂 wasnt sure if a keybinding woudl be implemented no biggie i already broke mine

Finally get a "large" boat (2nd tier) and wind is against me the whole time

[pliant hatch]

You sure you aren't sailing in the wrong direction?

🤔

[lunar sapphire]

It’s actually hard due to the composition of the materials which go into the creation of said boat

Thanks 👍

[onyx lava]

Luckily No... I dont know.. thats the fun part!

[regal spoke]

Phaedin Valheims o7

He cannot be damaged or even approached as he puffs away if close enough.

it would be nice if there weren't literally 50 charred marksmen everywhere i go

it's so annoying to fight so many enemies at once it's unreal

i don't think there's a biome with so many enemies literally everywhere

[tacit crystal]

Have you tried Root Harnesk against archers?

[tiny tiger]

⚡️ Berserker axes make quick work of pretty much every enemy

[hexed kite]

What sort of facts do people like to think about when making their Valheim characters? (if they care about that). Asking some short bios of the player characters on the server I’m in, and I’m coming up with information bullet points to go off of, currently I have:

• name
• age (at death)
• height
• how they died
• Favorite weapon
• favorite food dish
• likes
• dislikes
• role in the group
• bio

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, Thundering especially.

I like to pair Thunder axes with Klossen: knockback to keep enemies away and when immobility effect procs, switching to axes to quickly destroy immobilized enemy.

[gray sand]

• Name
• Beard status
• End of list

[vocal rivet]

It's not an RPG so...none?

[gray sand]

Throwing axes when? 😦

[limpid vigil]

Västkust Biome is vital for the swedish playerbase

[vocal rivet]

The game isn't set in Sweden.

[humble pewter]

Dont be dense, he used the troll emoji for a reason.

[vocal rivet]

And that changes my answer how, exactly?

[humble pewter]

So that's how you answer an obvious joke then? 🙃

[vocal rivet]

It's not an obvious joke, no. He's been clamouring for such a biome for some time.

[humble pewter]

Perhaps it's just very obvious for a fellow swede then. Västkusten in Sweden is pretty much meadows - ocean, cliffs and a pinch of sun during the summer week.

[vocal rivet]

Ok?

[humble pewter]

Yes?

[vocal rivet]

Never mind.

[humble pewter]

No worries!

[vocal rivet]

There we go, sorted.

[humble pewter]

Another job well done!

[verbal bluff]

Hey hey hey... Why is there no announcement about ValCon coming?
Tens of people streaming their ideas, mods and achievements.

[opal prairie]

Afternoon gjall.

[vocal rivet]

Probably because there's no such thing.

[verbal bluff]

Are you sure? 2nd of Feb.

[vocal rivet]

Yes, positive.

[craggy niche]

Could you clarify "summer week"? Does Summer only last a week in Sweden due latitude?

[humble pewter]

Summer is three calendar months, june to august, it's just a common joke for swedes since the weather can be very random.

[verbal bluff]

This?

[craggy niche]

This link is dead

[vocal rivet]

Heh, fair enough.

Not well advertised then.

[craggy niche]

Tried a few more times before it works, but it returns 500 errors often

[shy marlin]

It's just a community driven thing it's not official in anyway

[verbal bluff]

Correct. That doesn't diminish it, though.
I know for sure that Spazzy and JP are presenting their stuff. Azu will be there. More others too.

[vocal rivet]

Selling merch, that's brave.

[craggy niche]

I don't know these names

[verbal bluff]

Showing their ideas, mate.

[vocal rivet]

Huh? No, they're literally selling merch.

[verbal bluff]

Okay. Whatever. Never mind.

[vocal rivet]

Weird response.

Just seems odd that this is the first time the official Discord server has heard of it.

[shy marlin]

Because most of the content creators for valheim don't interact with this server at all

[craggy niche]

It is common for convention organizers to be in contact with the subject of the convention (and affiliated with several other related entities)

So this is unusual from my experience too

For example, it would be unusual to host a "Disney Con" without affiliation with Disney

[shy marlin]

Yes I agree I'm not defending them, I think it's also odd

[plush vapor]

how can i dont damge from freeze

[verbal bluff]

The yaml and scripts are open to public. What's the reason to bother devs with that? Let the devs do what they do.

[nocturne wolf]

Make frost resistance mead with swamp materials

[vocal rivet]

Wtf does YAML have to so with anything?

[plush vapor]

thank u so much

[quiet wedge]

Hi everybody!
Does anyone know what happens when you die at sea? I mean what happens to your body and items?

[craggy niche]

I don't understand the relevance of YAML and scripts with my quote

[vocal rivet]

And why bother the devs? It's their bloody game.

[shy marlin]

Your grave floats

[vocal rivet]

You're defending it very hard, Constantine. Are you involved in the organisation?

[merry pebble]

I mean, it is not weird for fans to make a get-together like this, but what would be weird is if, in this case, the developers would announce every and each one of those which seems to be the original problem Constantine had. Simply its not hosted by or in any way related to iron gate so why would they make any announcements 🤷‍♂️

[vocal rivet]

Why wouldn't they?

[quiet wedge]

And I need to go to where I died and pick it up, right? Just like on earth?

[merry pebble]

Who what?

[verbal bluff]

Nope. I just liked the new look on how valheim works with EWP.

[vocal rivet]

Huh?

I'm so lost.

[craggy niche]

It is a question reversal. Rather than ask "Why does Iron Gate not announce Val Con?", we ask "Why does Val Con not contact Iron Gate?" There is no hostility in this discussion. This is just how business, organization, and advertisements work.

[vocal rivet]

Yeah, it's not like I think IG would mind. I'm sure they'd be flattered.

[rain flare]

Build a campfire

If you don’t have frost mead

[light moat]

Ok but the Val-con tameable animals short is kinda cool 👀

[radiant pulsar]

What's the best source of renewable income? Currently doing Plains at night but the return is slow....

Wishing there was a Butcher you could sell to

[light moat]

Hmm would trolls be better? Best way to get gold is to go out and explore; the non-renewable method technically. But there’s a lot to explore.

[craggy niche]

-# Raiding and looting dungeons in new world seeds is always renewable

[shy marlin]

maybe love potion + troll hunting? idk tho just explore

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah trolls drop more coins deffo but I went out all day and didn't spawn one but goblins spawn in 3+

[light moat]

That’s a fair point, didn’t think about that lol

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah was gonna ask if Love Potion gives profit or breaks even

[light moat]

I think it break even at best?

[radiant pulsar]

Actually World hopping is likely quickest but really wanna avoid that tbh

[light moat]

LOL the new name 😂 the title, rather

[shy marlin]

.

[light moat]

Your best best is to keep exploring, id start with fortresses

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah I've done loads of exploring and completed the game but really after renewable rather than loads once none after

[light moat]

What do you need gold for? I’m guessing for building/decorating?

[radiant pulsar]

Oh yeah Fortresses drop loads but it's a once time affair - doesn't keep feasts going. ....

[craggy niche]

I consider wild lox ranches as gold farms. I feed them cloudberries in the evening and see gold on the ground in the morning

[light moat]

Ahh the gold is for feasts? They’re pretty inexpensive, raising Fulings/trolls at night should cover expense I think?

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah night time spawns is what I'm doing - maybe Love Potion at night too lol

Yeah Fader feast is amazing but expensive

[craggy niche]

Wolves may self sustain on some biomes (meat drops)

[radiant pulsar]

Now if only we could sell meat as I mentioned above 😁

[light moat]

Oh, Fulings only drop 5-9 gold 🤔 thought it was a little more haha

[radiant pulsar]

My god you'd be set with wolves esp when hunted

[radiant pulsar]

I wish lol

[light moat]

That’s probably why they wouldn’t want you to sell meat haha

[radiant pulsar]

Lol

[craggy niche]

Strolling through Ashlands, dwarves drop gold while fighting with charred

[regal spoke]

Go down to the local meat locker. Fur trader wouldn't be bad for that matter

[radiant pulsar]

Yes they do

[radiant pulsar]

Great idea

I will take all your ideas thank you

[radiant pulsar]

Interesting concept - stomping fulings?

[light moat]

Could always pitch it in suggestion, or find a suggestion and give it some support 🙂

[regal spoke]

You definitely point out a few weak points in the world economy

Now imagine how these things affect group play

[radiant pulsar]

Naturally you'd want low income early game and higher at end game

Good point Nutty

[craggy niche]

My coin purse never gets larger though

[regal spoke]

Imagine we can acquire gems while mining. Not renewable but the extra income provides more gold in the long run

[light moat]

Higher chance of getting gems with a higher mining skill? 🤔

[regal spoke]

Yea that's a good take Dogg

[radiant pulsar]

I'm guessing spawn rates vary depend on whether biome area is explored. I always find loadsa enemies when FIRST exploring then once the map is rendered the spawns drop off!

Except one biome lol

[craggy niche]

Fully clear the packs

[radiant pulsar]

I guess spawners are cleared too

[light moat]

Write it up, pitch it in suggestions 😉

[radiant pulsar]

I tend to leave spawners in place

[craggy niche]

For example, if I tame 1/3 lox with 2/3 dead, the 2/3 will not respawn until 1/3 is dead

[radiant pulsar]

Yes that makes sense and what I'm observing too hydro

[craggy niche]

Easy to observe with fishing (spawn in groups of 5) or deathsquitos (spawn in pairs)

[regal spoke]

We also have some meadows options for gold and gems. The boat graves. Also don't the little stone things where skeletons spawn have some treasure? More things like this could help the overall economy. Renewable would be nice.

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah it's the once only kinda gets me ...creates an emptiness afterwards.....

[craggy niche]

Realistic though: raiding, sacking, and looting a place leaves it feeling empty

[radiant pulsar]

On a high note though - still playing even though I'm fully progressed - the game has such a replayable thing

[light moat]

Plant a little garden and build a little shrine every time you loot, keep the world alive and well

[radiant pulsar]

True and I guess the only way to alleviate that would be to have villages and hostile settlements respawn akin to Generation Zero

Like "Well you conquered us but now you don't bother with it do we'll take it back" lol

[craggy niche]

Well, there are night spawns in a fully progressed world. I don't enjoy these though.

[regal spoke]

I can't bring myself to dig out the boat graves and leave a massive hole for the small reward. Rather keep clearing dungeons.

[radiant pulsar]

Same here

[regal spoke]

Could also turn up raid frequency at end game. Little rng but should result in more gold overall?

[radiant pulsar]

Ohhhhh nice call

[craggy niche]

I don't know why, but all of my raids have been Hildir bosses lately. None of them drop gold.

[light moat]

Guess I’m a raider through and through, I’ll tear apart any grave I find for some coin

[regal spoke]

Dang

Dogg Valheims

[radiant pulsar]

Toss a coin for your Wi........oops wrong game.....

[craggy niche]

Playing instruments for dvergr tips would be amusing

[radiant pulsar]

Now that would be funny lol

G2g - great insights and ideas from all. Thank you 😁

[regal spoke]

Be well

[light moat]

Your instrument skill dictates whether they give you gold/treasure, or you play terribly and aggro them

[regal spoke]

Lol

[tacit crystal]

Higher skill also could have higher chance for dvergr drop the extractor at you, giving another option to get one without violence.

[regal spoke]

Being a bard in Valheim. Now that's an thought

[tacit crystal]

But no, you couldn't seduce a dragon like in DnD. 🙅‍♂️

[regal spoke]

Rip the dream lol

[tacit crystal]

You're supposed to slay the Forsaken, not lay the Forsaken.

[lofty valley]

Why can't you lay with the Forsaken? They need love also D:

[tacit crystal]

I think Odin wouldn't approve.

[regal spoke]

How about breeding with wolves to make werewolf?

[lofty valley]

Odin is all forgiving maybe? lol

[tacit crystal]

According to lore, I think not that much. 👀

[lofty valley]

Time to overthrow Odin!

[mystic gale]

Is there a mod that simply bans stoneportal?

From a server

[tacit crystal]

You could ask from https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966

There is also option to set "No portals" from world modifiers, but it would ban all portals then.

[mystic gale]

Yeah, thats the issue

[tacit crystal]

Also, there is option to simply just not build them.

If you get into agreement with your server buddies.

[regal spoke]

Map and portal are the biggest cheese in the game. Turn em both off and experience real Valheim. Sorta serious mostly sarcasm. Play how ya want

[mystic gale]

Like ive been thinking about playing a no map run, in a 10 player environment it could be cool. you would have to build landmarks and such

or like atleast trying

landmarks and roads

[regal spoke]

Landmarks and roads are great. Both become even more relevant in low visibility biomes

[mystic gale]

yeah i mean you already need them in mistlands kinda.

[feral parrot]

is 63 iron normal? Got my first crypt and yielded only 63.. figured there was more iirc?

maybe I missed something? but I double checked..

[opal prairie]

I've had crypts with just above 40 iron scraps but I've also found crypts with 160+, one crypt even gave me over 200.

[tacit crown]

Good to know we have some level headed people here. 🙏🙏

[feral parrot]

Thanks @opal prairie

[tacit crystal]

I have also encountered crypts with 3 dead ends, therefore 0 iron. 🥲

[tiny tiger]

Oof that’s so unlucky

I usually average around 60 a crypt iirc

[tacit crystal]

Those have been rare occasions tho, and not all of them have been in same world.

[feral parrot]

how many iron y'all usually get before moving on past bonemass?

figure a couple weapons and maybe helmet/shield

[tacit crystal]

That depends.
As builder, you never have enough.

As faster player, weapons and armor pieces of choice, iron pick, nails for boat, enough for forge upgrades.

[feral parrot]

I guess that's true

I plan on finding my new main base here soon with iron pieces mixed in for support

gonna go tall

[craggy niche]

My rule of thumb is one cart full (540 = 18x stacks of 30)

[feral parrot]

I was thinking the entire swamp biome where I found bonemass - haven't explored there, but I'd imagine there's a few

[tacit crystal]

One full Longboat should be enough for some future needs.

[craggy niche]

Same number of storage slots as a cart

[tacit crystal]

Leaving the portal in that swamp for future would be a good idea.

[regal spoke]

You played a role in the idea. I went to drop it and didn't know the lightbulb was mandatory. Care to drop something like this...

💡 Make mining give potential for gems. Higher mining skill, higher potential.

[regal spoke]

Thanks @light moat you're a legend

[proper sundial]

bro what happened to your messages yesterday? I witnessed them being thanos-snapped

[tacit crystal]

I don't think we need to discuss that further here.

[normal vine]

you'll return to the swamps more than once for iron so i suggest you don't leave it be

[onyx lava]

Yeah don't be stinky in the swamp... err I mean don't be stingy about the swamp!

[normal vine]

are there really no recipes using bonemaw meat?

that's such a disappointment

[light moat]

Think all you can do is cook it

[gray sand]

Cooked Bonemaw Meat*
😏

So there is 1 recipe.

[normal vine]

yeah, but imagine the buffs of bonemaw foods, they'd be so op

[light moat]

Might see more recipes using it in Deep North? 🤔

[gray sand]

Imagining an OP thing..

Yeah I don't want that in the game.

[normal vine]

i doubt it

[normal vine]

trollstav and the berserkir axes:

[tacit crystal]

Might, or might not. It remains to be seen.

[gray sand]

Are both fine.

[normal vine]

literally bonemass's power:

[gray sand]

Eikthyr power almost always for me.
Except when I need Moder.

[shy marlin]

Real gamers don't use bonemass (real)

[gray sand]

Scale issue.

[warm sandal]

does alway forgetting to activate it make me a real gamer then?

[shy marlin]

yes

[warm sandal]

i next to never use it because i forget 😄

[gray sand]

Subconsciously

[normal vine]

it's nice having it when you're to a new biome and anything can kill you pretty easily

but i almost never use powers myself either

[warm sandal]

whoohooo i am a subconcious real gamer 😄

[light moat]

I’m not a real gamer 😔

[craggy niche]

I don't think I can beat queen in melee without bonemass on hard+

[gray sand]

Eikthyr > Moder > GET READY FOR IT: ||Elder||

[shy marlin]

nahhhhhh

[normal vine]

i have the same issue actually

[shy marlin]

i was not prepared for that even though i was warned for it

[normal vine]

i'm so good at the game that i forget to use it

trust me

i once killed odin with my bare fists

[gray sand]

Sounds like you are lacking skill if you cannot prepare when warned 😏😉

[golden granite]

I'm mid way through silver age, debating whether I should get silver or iron Armor, I hear that the next time after silver is padded Armor, should I skip silver and go for that?

[merry pebble]

I have this issue but also another one, i often forget to switch my powers so when i fight i can activate Moder if i want 😁

[warm sandal]

weeelll i can mostly play up to the mistlands without death (mistlands gets me once or twice usually) but ashlands is a whole other can of worms then 😄 still forgetting to use it... just more death loops 😄

[gray sand]

Your game, your decision.

[warm sandal]

as i next to never bother to get moder power in the first place i at least do not have that issue

[normal vine]

why don't you just.. skip silver.. and get the fenris armour?

there's almost no use for silver.. so it's your choice i guess

i know it's useful for the mistwalker but that's pretty much it

[gray sand]

Skip all armors and do the naked run. 👍

[craggy niche]

Silver arrows are the best use

[normal vine]

only for the undead

[gray sand]

Silver arrows have no purpose.

[shy marlin]

If silver arrows mostly did spirit and not pierce they'd be good

[golden granite]

The fenrir Armor is just a movement speed buff tho right? I feel like getting more into tanky gameplay and kinda tired of big hits with light armor

[craggy niche]

I like to beat my enemies with monies silver

[warm sandal]

I am to stingy to make silver arrows 😄 i usually run with flint until i absolutely have no choice to switch because i can not get stuff dead anymore..and then it is usually frost 😄

[gray sand]

As I have continually said: Silver needs to have the same stat spread that Frost arrows do.

Frost is the best arrow in the game.

[normal vine]

do they not?

[shy marlin]

Silver arrows are mostly pierce and a lil bit of spirit

[gray sand]

Not even close. They are pierce with a smidge of spirit.

[shy marlin]

I think its 52 pierce 20 spirit but idk

[normal vine]

that's sad

[craggy niche]

Spirit/physical damage distribution is inconsistent across every silver weapon

I have no idea why

[gray sand]

.#BlameSmiffe
😏

[normal vine]

spirit would be nice would it come in a good package

[noble axle]

Fenris Armor + Root Harnesk can carry u up to the very last boss in the game 🙂

[craggy niche]

I believe the ranking is something like sword > frostner > battleaxe > knife > arrow

[normal vine]

"but spirit damage is good!" yeah.. but the weapons aren't. so that's why frostner is the best choice

[noble axle]

frostner is only good in maybe 3 scenarios

[warm sandal]

if you are good at avoiding getting hit bigtime that is... to many skill issues here to survive in that all the way up

[golden granite]

I see, I already have a full root set. I also have a cultist trophy and can make the fenrir hood. Should I do something else for leggings?

[warm sandal]

and i am a dedicated fenris user ... need to get better at playing that game 😄

[normal vine]

frostner is quite possibly the best blunt weapon in the entire game, the frost effect is absolutely insane and most enemies are weak to blunt, not only that but you get a hint of spirit for the undead

[noble axle]

the only time I struggled with fenris armor was when fighting || Reto || but once I figured out what weaps work best against him with that specific armor & playstyle it was very easy

[noble axle]

the frost effect is not 'insane', most are neutral and the spirit dmg is not that good compared to the silver sword

[noble axle]

if u are dying a lot then u can use the wolf leggings 🙂

[normal vine]

i have always found the frostner to be the best weapon of the biome

it was quite useful in the plains aswell

[tiny tiger]

Frostner and himmin afl made my early Ashland’s siege a lot more manageable

[ancient agate]

I don't think he means that Frost is something mobs are often weak to. It's that slowing animations is a powerful debuff

[noble axle]

frostner is awful against golems, drakes (lol), can be good against wolves, prob good against the other werewolves

[normal vine]

that's what i meant

[craggy niche]

I would sheathe frostner against a pack of wolves

[noble axle]

just use an iron mace for golems its much better since golems resist frost and spirit

[tiny tiger]

Frostner works great against golems tho, yeah it’s a lot of hits but parry and middle attack still does considerable damage, it’s easy to farm club level on golems

[nocturne wolf]

Iron mace is significantly stronger against golems

[tiny tiger]

It works well despite its resistance even with there being much better alternatives

[warm sandal]

that is why i schlepp around iron mace and frostner in the mountains 😄 the spirit damage and frost damage does nothing to the golem 😄

[normal vine]

whenever i see golems i just don't bother, crystals aren't useful for anything

[tiny tiger]

Windowssssss

[warm sandal]

welll i do love me glass windows in my plains base ... i'd rather not have mosquitos fly in through the windows 😄

[trail pelican]

LOL, golems do feel like more trouble than they're worth until you outclass them

[normal vine]

ugliest block in the game

[craggy niche]

Pickaxe best against golem: hole in the ground, drop them inside, build a platform overhead. Spawn suppressed.

[tiny tiger]

It truly is a shame golems don’t drop silver ore, they have the vein on them so why no ore

I guess the biggest reason being to avoid players cheesing the mountain

[pliant radish]

because then easy silver before mountain

[warm sandal]

äh...stone golems are IN the mountains?

[trail pelican]

technically you'd still need to go INTO the mountain, and i imagine the drop rate would be not nearly enough to supplant the silver ore remotely EFFICIENTLY at least

[craggy niche]

Use drop rate similar to oozers. Few players farm oozers for early iron.

[warm sandal]

and silver is easier to be had from the ground than from golems

[tiny tiger]

and the wolf trophy is still rare enough and wolf chest piece would require a lot of silver anyway

[pliant radish]

lox

[warm sandal]

reverse boss players might farm oozers for iron 😄 but else.. nah to much trouble

[tacit crystal]

Crystal battleaxe

[craggy niche]

Enter frost cave, hold E, make battleaxe

[noble axle]

not worth it, they rarely drop iron

[normal vine]

better alternatives idk

[noble axle]

I just clipped thru the crypts and got iron that way, much faster and gets way more 🙂

[pliant radish]

In a dedicated server I'm in we actually did hunt oozers for bits of iron to make a few crafting upgrades and whatnot before fighting the elder lol

[warm sandal]

uh... crystal battle axe is just a decorative piece for me like all the tower shields too 😄 looking pretty do not want to use

[craggy niche]

Same

[tiny tiger]

Would love serpent scale armor to match the serpent scale shield on a armor stand

[gray sand]

If battleaxe had like... 0.15s taken off it's first hit windup I would be a battleaxe main.

[craggy niche]

What is serpent scale armor?

[tiny tiger]

I made it up

[noble axle]

lol

[craggy niche]

I like this hallucination

[tiny tiger]

I really like the color of the serpent scales

[warm sandal]

what do you do when you are technically ready to kill bonemass but do not really want to have the hunted events starting? You go sailing around the world a lot in the hope of spotting the yagluth altar somewhere from the boat 😄

[light moat]

Yeah the serpent scales look extremely good

[near furnace]

I don't balance numbers

[normal vine]

wow i love trying to do anything in the ashlands but a morgen spawns right next to me and a valkyrie spots me alongside the 5 charred marksmen

[gray sand]

Which is why they aren't balanced 😏
So that is why it's your fault 😏

[near furnace]

🤔

[merry pebble]

[normal vine]

valheim is very vrillic

it brings... peace to my soul @near furnace

[near furnace]

❤️

[light moat]

Why did this make me laugh so hard 😂

[gray sand]

We need the Valheim hare version.

[normal vine]

i'm about to reach the 550 hour mark

[warm sandal]

I am 89 h short of the 3000h mark 😄

[tiny tiger]

450-500 range here

[merry pebble]

around 40 until 1K 😄

[normal vine]

what do you even do in the game at that point

[onyx lava]

640 Hours

[gray sand]

Build cool shit.

[regal spoke]

Between Xbox and PC I maaaaay be around 2k. Mostly building stuff lol

[normal vine]

like there's no way you're continously making saves if you're not building superstructures

[tacit crystal]

Just reached 2400h yesterday.

[regal spoke]

Nice

I don't build super structure. Spent a lot of time solo. Now I'm doing the group experience. Building portal networks and villages for communities. Taking on things as a team.

[normal vine]

why did that take so long for you to type. are you typing from your xbox

[tiny tiger]

Xbox has discord?

[regal spoke]

Phone

[gray sand]

XPhone

[normal vine]

i think xbox has the discord app

[regal spoke]

I'm on lunch at work

[tiny tiger]

Oh dam

[tacit crystal]

XPhox

[normal vine]

not bad

[regal spoke]

There's also playthrough with different approaches. I've yet to go the knife route so that's available for me

[tiny tiger]

There’s so many ways to play the game lol, world modifiers really opens up the possibilities

[regal spoke]

World modifiers and snapping system changed things for the better

I can't wait for final release. Gonna start a fresh no map run

[normal vine]

doesn't xbox register playtime in days?

[regal spoke]

Probably. I'm ballparking honestly. I know I have 1k hours on PC.

I heard Thread mention Val-com on stream yesterday. What is it

[normal vine]

not sure... server service?

[warm sandal]

Starting new characters and new worlds and setting myself new goals ... like learn to throw a spear with precision or build a whole village and record it for the youtubes ... it never gets old for me... there is still so much to learn

[cobalt canyon]

mods

[merry pebble]

A fan gathering basically, fan hosted

[regal spoke]

Thanks Asatru. I did some searching. Found a .org and a YouTube channel for it. Sounds awesome

Val-con not com as I put it above

[warm sandal]

is probably overseas from here and so i might not be able to attent... sad

[regal spoke]

We can still keep up from a distance. The YouTube channel I found is ValConEvent

[serene talon]

if you search Val-Con Valheim it will give you the website wich contains all further links

[regal spoke]

Heck yea. Good call out. I subscribed to the channel. I'll check their site soon.

[regal spoke]

Throw spear with precision. The lob required for ranged shots is wild. Hitting a moving target feels so good. I'm still working on consistency with that lol

[warm sandal]

my goal is to be able to hit an approaching squito every time before it hits me 😄 right now i have a 50/50 rate 😄 needs a lot improving

[regal spoke]

You'll get it for sure

[tacit crystal]

Do you throw spear against Drakes?

[noble axle]

yea, and it ends up flying over the mountain

[warm sandal]

not until i have higher precision... running down a mountain to fetch a spear back that has toppled down is cumbersome... I'd rather punch them to death 😄

punching drakes is fun 😄

more so once you got the fleshrippers

[cobalt canyon]

Wish we had more fist weapons

[merry pebble]

Very much fun 😁

[warm sandal]

I hear you... my fistlevels are usually very high and there is only fleshrippers 😄

[cobalt canyon]

I still need to see if Fader can be punched to death

Bare fists physically can't outpace the health regen

Lvl 4 flesh rippers might

[warm sandal]

there is a video of seymore he did it with the fleshrippers

killed fadder with fleshrippers only

[tacit crystal]

I succeeded to not lose any spear during Mountain in my Hard world. I quite regurarly throw them at Gjalls and Ashlands mobs also. 🙂

[craggy niche]

Harpoons use spear skill IIRC. Practice on birds or deathsquitos or just drag things around the world.

My original favorite infinite ammo ranged weapon

[noble axle]

with 100 fist skill and lvl 4 rippers it probably is possible

[warm sandal]

it is not about leveling up the skill lvls... it is about me being able to throw more precisely

[craggy niche]

What better way than to spam throw?

[noble axle]

harpoons on animals

or afk players with pvp on lol

[cosmic summit]

Does anyone else feel like the hanging lanterns look strange indoors?

[noble axle]

what type of lanterns

Dvergr?

[cobalt canyon]

The dvergr pieces

[noble axle]

Idk I think they look cool

[cobalt canyon]

eh. I'm not a builder - I make big box, fill with crafting stations, and am done

[regal spoke]

They do feel a bit like they belong outdoors.

But the wall sconce model suffices

[cosmic summit]

Wall scones look like they'd burn my ceiling. But nothing beats good ole fashion fire for ambient lighting

[warm sandal]

bit hard to do on the wooden floor of my upper floor in my base... the fires i mean 😄

[regal spoke]

My goal as a challenge is more use of indirect lighting. Be it torches or other resources

[warm sandal]

i do use the sconces indoors and the dvergr lanterns outdoors though... feels right that way for me

[noble axle]

yea same I am not very creative when it comes to building in this game

[tiny tiger]

I tried messing around with creative mode and grausten and man it’s so hard to get anything nice looking

[warm sandal]

i guess i did procrastinate enough ... i shall bite the bullet and kill bonemass...

[regal spoke]

I just recently got into building with grausten. Some of the pieces don't seam up the way id like or anticipated. But I'll keep working at it

[tiny tiger]

Yeah like it’s really hard to line up those arches on a corner to have it going both left and right

Or north and east kinda thing

[regal spoke]

Have you used the door trick to create alternate snapping points. Sometimes I break this out for those finicky spots

[tiny tiger]

I wonder what the real life inspiration is for these build pieces

Eh at times but it wouldn’t really help me accomplish what I’m trying to do in this scenario what I mean is like a T shape where the 2 arches are coming out from the same pillar one going left one right

Or the same thing but at a right angle on the corner

[warm sandal]

oookay we got a wishbone now 😄

[tiny tiger]

Oh wow that was quick, GG

[warm sandal]

it was only bonemass??? 😄 moder will not go as quickly 😄

[tiny tiger]

What was the strat? Iron mace and heavy swing/dodge?

[warm sandal]

Iron mace and poison mead and just keep wacking at him until he falls 😄

and best food you can make of course

knowing dodge rolls is helpful 😄

if you don't build scaffolding on the skull to be out of his reach 😄

[merry pebble]

You can jump on it without any scaffholding 😉

[warm sandal]

yeah but you can not stay up there while fighting without a plattform to stand on... you will slide off 😄

so if you no good with rolling -> plattform on the skull does the trick

[merry pebble]

Ah, true that 🙂

[warm sandal]

okay now we have bonemass power that we will forget to use until the end of the game 😄

hmmm I will have to obtain an obliterator... there are 5 stacks of withered bones in my box to be cremated

[cosmic summit]

What's up with the marble arches having that little grove on the inside that doesn't match any other pieces?

[warm sandal]

hah a spawnproved island base is the best... got a raid... "Cold wind from the mountains" ... well... no one came to call.... island spawn proved could not spawn 😄 Love it

hang up that wishbone on an item stand when? 😦 i want to hang it on my wall like the key if I do not use it?

[trail pelican]

that's a pretty good spawnproofing job if it blocked even the flyers

[warm sandal]

you just gotta make sure you also get all the shallow water bits where reeds grow and a bit beyond so that there is not ground to spawn on in case of low tide... have done a few times works like a charm

[turbid shale]

any idea when the game's getting steam achievements?

[merry pebble]

When it is fully released 🙂

So with Deep North update

[turbid shale]

Damn

We got a release date on that yet?

[merry pebble]

Nope

[turbid shale]

Ashlands did just come out

[merry pebble]

Yea, it will take some time for sure but any guesses on any date would be pretty much baseless 🙂

[gray sand]

Exactly 420 hours and 69 minutes from right now.

[merry pebble]

Sev...

[gray sand]

Oh I'm sorry...

WHEN UPDATE?!?!
DEAD CHAT
ABANDONED GAME

[merry pebble]

Neither false info nor imitating one of the most obnoxious sort of users is very nice 😉

[distant grotto]

anyone ever get a seed where there is no Yag? i pulled up map and so far first 4 bosses exactly where they are uspposed to be, however, 2 diff YAG locations are empty...

[gray sand]

Was the map generated pre-Witch?

[distant grotto]

not sure, i think i started this seed maybe week prior? havnt found bog witch just haldor and hildir

[merry pebble]

That can happen to world made before bog witch update 🙂 if using the map generator you would have to put in the files itself to get correct locations

[distant grotto]

weird, all other bosses in there spot just not yag...shit

what do u mean put in file itself?

[merry pebble]

That instead of using only seed you will find the world files and put it in the generator site, that way it will show you correct locations

[distant grotto]

oh i see instructions on map site, thx ill try that

so the world file, .fwl, still shows the same locations , its just identifying the seed which i alrdy know

[merry pebble]

You should put there fwl and db files iirc 🤔

[distant grotto]

ah just got the error, im on older world vers

got it, thanks bro

Ooof, i know that feeling

[regal spoke]

This is the way. Been there more than once.

[onyx lava]

YEP!

[regal spoke]

I read the Hobbit first then lotr. Silmarillion as a teen was just too much. I need to revisit.

[slim sapphire]

yo how do i play valhiem

[merry pebble]

You buy the game, you instal it and you start it 🙂

[slim sapphire]

i already did that

[regal spoke]

Explore, collect stuff, build stuff, kill stuff

[slim sapphire]

ok

[merry pebble]

Dont forget to cook stuff 😉

[regal spoke]

Food is big for sure. Hammer is also big

[tacit crystal]

Listen to the bird. He gives you advices.

[near furnace]

The bird is the word

[cosmic igloo]

here is a 3 parter on how to play the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfaqixm-Bak&ab_channel=ThreadMenace

deep north enemy

[pliant radish]

I found a bug :)

[shy marlin]

are you in the mistlands by chance

lots of bugs there

[pliant radish]

if you unequip feather cape while falling you take damage after landing on the ground as if you fell the entire distance without feather cape, regardless of when you took it off during the fall

[robust delta]

nice

gonna troll my friends with that haha

[nimble moss]

to me that is kind of expected.

The fall damage would be calculated at the moment of impact - and the game would see you had been falling for a long distance.

What you can do is take the cape off, fall faster, then put it on just before hitting the ground

[shy marlin]

Making sure I'm not missing anything, only ways to gain hp are, health potions and passive regen from food. No other sources right

[nimble moss]

corpse run buff is +10HP per tick

or whatever it is

[shy marlin]

ah yea

dying is for noobs tho so crossing that one out

[pliant hatch]

Oh look, there are the famous last words again. 😄

[nimble moss]

depends if intentional or not 🙂

But yeah - other than modifying the passive regen amount via fire/resting etc

[shy marlin]

so without food only way of getting hp is through potions

(ignoring corpse run)

so basically means you have 24.9 hp to spend before getting the fermenter

[nimble moss]

mmm... I feel like "resting" gives you some regardless - let me go test ...

i.e. i guess you always get like +1HP from any food source

[shy marlin]

my understanding is that rested and resting are multipliers to your passive regen tick, and if your passive regen tick is 0, zero*any multiplier = 0

[nimble moss]

yeah - correct - just tested.

But any food source of anything will give you at least +1/HP tick - so you dont need fermenter - just any food

[red tusk]

i havent played valheim since before ashlands, did they make the elder locators more plentiful in the black forest? I've found like 5 in the first few hours of playing

[shy marlin]

|| food is banned in the context of this run 😏 ||

[nimble moss]

then yes.... get a fermentor

its a potion not a liquid food? 🙂

[wintry valve]

I wish we could plan ash trees

[shy marlin]

well potions are made of food so i guess but banning pots+food sounds horrible

[nimble moss]

there's a mod that does that if you really want

[wintry valve]

Yeah... people often default to mods for these kind of things. Somehow it puts me off.

[onyx lava]

On this episode of Lox's Gone Wild...

[nimble moss]

yep - i understand - just letting you know it was an option

[onyx lava]

Watching a lox tear his way through a black forest all because 1 deer walked near him lol

[wintry valve]

oh man, loxes. The very first time I found the plains, I was on my karve, sporting my bronze tier stuff and wearing my troll armor. I got chased by a deathskito and I remember my friend rambling about them, years ago.

So I sorta panicked, because I didnt have much places to run away, being on a karve.

[onyx lava]

I remember the OG squitos.... jeebus you hit them first or you died

[cosmic summit]

How effective is the arbalest against modor

[wintry valve]

Somehow the deathskito left me alone, I dont know why. I think it got distracted by greydwarves or something.

However I got into a lagoon so I had to turn back, and then a lox just sorta fell on me

[lunar sapphire]

And ran right into a LOX. You then were chased around half of Valheim's world. You survived cos a troll came to help
The END ❤️

Anytime yall

[wintry valve]

I was kind of pissed

[lunar sapphire]

Not that I can confirm, but I don't suggest playing Valheim while drunk

especially drunk and running away from plains mobs

[tacit crystal]

It packs a punch against her, but is slower than bow for sure.

[onyx lava]

Love it

[tepid prawn]

Its okay until Mistlands during the day, for night there and for Ashlands I'd want to be a bit more sober haha

[onyx lava]

Thats the best time to play, I just opened my first beer

[wintry valve]

Also im riding some high from an earlier comment a friend told me.

[tepid prawn]

I remember that haha

[lunar sapphire]

I've said this several times before but I remember Plains pre Deathsquitos

[wintry valve]

Im playing on a server with a whole bunch of other people, and I have the habit of constantly retrieving stuff from the ashland. Someone felt bad for having used so much ashwood, so they decided to go in there to find trees to replenish what was used.

Allegedly they said "its terrifying in there, I dont know how Vinny does it"

[onyx lava]

Hmm having a hard time picking a spot for my final base, do i put it nearer the ashlands or just somewhere beautiful

[lunar sapphire]

"This Ashland island has no trees on it, how tf is Vinny getting Ashwood?"

On a real note though,

If lava exist
How tree?

[vocal rivet]

gestures at the world

[onyx lava]

Well you see, no onions in the valley just at the top of the mountain, so lavatree!

[lunar sapphire]

That was a wild sentence. I read onion as opinion and then onion again and I don't have Dyslexia

[regal spoke]

If onion only found on mountain. Why does it not grow on mountain

[lunar sapphire]

It's waiting for you to turnip

I'll see myself out

-# Tough crowd.. tough crowd..

[tepid prawn]

Someone bought them from the supermarket and put them in their mountain “fridge”

[gray sand]

There are some that round down to 0 in their final minute of duration, but overall correct.

[sinful fulcrum]

so that means that I jump from a 5000km mountain, unequip feather cape last second, insta rip?

[gray sand]

1. Mods 🤢
2. #mods-discussion

That is something to talk about in #mods-discussion

[pliant hatch]

You'd better ask that in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966, as someone already tried to explain

[misty cloak]

They are VERY strict about no mod talk in valheim chat lol

[gray sand]

One of the best qualities of this server tbh.

[misty cloak]

Eh, I get it but I wish that chat was more visible instead of hidden away at the bottom

[regal spoke]

"A place for everything and everything in it's place"

[misty cloak]

Its pretty easy to miss on first glance

[pliant hatch]

Perhaps because mods aren't officially supported?
So why bring it up high in the list, if it's something that isn't important to the devs?

[misty cloak]

To minimize needing to tell people to go there?

And tbc this isn't a demand, just an observation

[pliant radish]

yes

[misty cloak]

That's hilarious

[pliant hatch]

I doubt that'll help.

Look at the servers and lfg channel. It's basically the 4th channel on the list and the third in the Valheim part.
Yet, people here have to point others 100's of times to that channel.

[misty cloak]

You can't fix the lowest denominator

Most of those people also proceed to not even post there after it being point out

[uncut pewter]

Ah perfect I didn't understand that, thank you

[pliant hatch]

To me it feels more that there's a certain group of people who doesn't WANT to look further, as they know there are always other people doing the searching and pointing towards the right channel for them anyway.

[regal spoke]

We see a lot of people needing redirection for lfg and mods. Perhaps channels & roles could get applicable roles added. Or rules could use a couple extra lines for clarity.

[gray sand]

People have WASD problems and now you want them to read? 👀

[regal spoke]

I'm not ignoring potential scale issue

[misty cloak]

Lowest denominator, look at that last dude in general, he never wound up posting in lfg. But I'd bet there's also a higher percentage of mod users that don't scroll down then lfg peeps that can't read

[pliant hatch]

I'm afraid that's a lost cause, considering nowadays lots of people have a cell phone with an higher IQ as their owner.

[lunar sapphire]

"Read the rules"

clarity provided ❤️

[misty cloak]

Once I see vcs I tend to assume there's no chats below that

[regal spoke]

I have. Multiple times. Can you identify any line that, would help people know where to go for lfg and mods related. Both of these topics constantly require us to nudge people where to go.

[lunar sapphire]

I was joking btw

all goods

2. Keep posts within the proper channels, and don’t spam or post links to unrelated sites etc. Do not stream non-Valheim related content in the voice chats.

[misty cloak]

Tbf, that doesn't help with realizing mod discussion is a scroll down

Lfg.... people are dumb, can't help that lol

[lunar sapphire]

It's saying to keep posts within the correct channels, not give you a server tour 😄

[misty cloak]

Right lol, my whole thing was to maybe move mod discussion up so that yall can save time redirecting people

Sadly not all of it, because again, dumbs, but some of it

[pliant hatch]

That's the whole point, isn't it?

You don't enter a supermarket and then ask 5 steps in where to find something, but walk around looking for what you need.
But at discord servers, people don't scroll down to check which channels there are, but post in the very first channel they see, hoping others will point them into the right direction.

[lunar sapphire]

"And here if you scroll down two "large finger scrolls" you can see the exquisite modified valheim channels. These creatures keep to themselves a majority of the time but when they're in a pack, conversations can break out and intervention from the discord volunteers is required.

[misty cloak]

Gotcha, I see the tone. I'm just gonna drop it or I'm gonna join you in aggravation

[lunar sapphire]

tone?

👀

[vocal rivet]

writes a page on the Wiki on how to use the Discord

[regal spoke]

You'll still have to link them mate

[pliant hatch]

MIght be a good idea to start a discord server for that, so people can post suggestions there. As well as having a general chat, a chat related to all kinds of games, etc.
Oh and don't forget to add a channel for the use of mods at the bottom. 😉

[lunar sapphire]

Derek is a resident at the Discord zoo. He's not to be confused with the creatures as he does help the volunteers out of hobby/interest. He's your average informational "you are here" sign and without him the visitors refer to Rianu

Rianu and Derek swap shifts respectively

[pliant hatch]

And why do I have a deja-vu about the pointers to the vegvisirs to point to Yagluth suggestion of a week or so ago?

[sinful fulcrum]

#suggestions message 😂😂

[vocal rivet]

I'd rather not be conflated with Rianu. We're VERY different people.

[lunar sapphire]

Rianu is the welcome sign, you're the you are here sign?

[vocal rivet]

Heh, Rianu being welcoming is hilarious.

[lunar sapphire]

look, I'm doing my best here. If you want to bring emotions into this then I can do this another day

(aka, never cos rules)

[vocal rivet]

Never would be appreciated, thanks.

[lunar sapphire]

Lost me at never

oh gotcha

nvm

[pliant hatch]

I think Rianu is more like that sign with a pitbull on it, telling you it's guarding this place.

[lunar sapphire]

Derek = helpful.

[vocal rivet]

There must be better things to do as a mod than call out geniunely helpful members of the community.

[lunar sapphire]

"Beware! Dog on property." ?

oh I was just saying, all goods though.

I do need to get ready to out soon.

[lunar sapphire]

-# Slow day at work (moderating) 😄

[pliant hatch]

More like something a character from the old Sacred: Underworld would call it: "Butt ugly and doesn't even taste nice." 😄

[lunar sapphire]

ok, changing this convo before it becomes a roasting session

[vocal rivet]

It STARTED as a roasting session.

[lunar sapphire]

which is what I was hopefully avoiding

oh ok then. I was tryna pay compliment to your help but guess I failed 😄

[pliant hatch]

Well, considering it's most likley highly illegal to put either Derek or Rianu on a BBQ, yeah, better move elsewhere.

[vocal rivet]

By suggesting that I was interchangeble with Rianu? How the fuck is that complimentary?

[lunar sapphire]

I'm stepping away now

ya'll are loved

-# and I apologise ❤️

[regal spoke]

The bees are happy. Poor Derek. Not so much

[vocal rivet]

No, Derek is grumpy. It's not like this was even the first time.

[shy marlin]

thoughts on giving atgeir a -10% movement penalty

[regal spoke]

I get it Derek. I've silently watched a few scenarios play out.

[robust delta]

yeah

[pliant hatch]

And I just realized I had in mind to ask if a link to a page with hex-codes for colours (for signs) could be added to the pinned messages.

Only to realize 2 seconds later that it's no use, because people don't read the pinned messages either. sigh

[regal spoke]

I do. Makes me sad so many servers don't even use pins

That color code page would be handy.

[pliant hatch]

Well, I always open each tab to see which channel is in there, so I can set preferences for which ones to get notifications from or not.
But as we just discussed, not everyone does that. 😉

[pliant hatch]

https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.php

There you go. 🙂

[regal spoke]

For sure. Tbf navigation to pins on mobile is an extra step. Where as the desktop version has the icon in plain sight

Thank you Thorin. I know I've looked it up before. But the trick for floating text up or to the side from the sign is handy too.

[light moat]

Does the atgeir not have a penalty currently?

[shy marlin]

it's -5%

[light moat]

Ahhh gotcha
<This guy has never used atgeirs

[regal spoke]

Same

[shy marlin]

😔 sorry to hear that

join the atgeir gang || cult ||

[light moat]

And the battleaxe has -20%? 🥲

[shy marlin]

yea lol its brutal

[carmine badger]

Pfft, try the giant maul.

[light moat]

my heart and soul belong to the battleaxe cult

[carmine badger]

Worth it though...

Berserker axes are my mains now...they stagger so hard.

[pliant hatch]

YW.

I was looking for it because I had another storage method for food in mind. Instead of seperating things in "veggies", "meat" and "fish", I decided to use a chest for each biome. And I wanted the text on the signs to (sort of) match the biome the items are from. Which was something I couldn't do when using the <color=[add color]> method. With the hex-codes it's a lot easier to get the matching colours.

[noble axle]

no

[shy marlin]

don't think -10% is even that brutal given that rat potion exists now

[regal spoke]

I like the idea of storage by biome. I also like storage by recipe. At least for foods and meads. I wish more colors would show up nice and bright.

[light moat]

Rat pot

[lunar sapphire]

Subject is mobile now

[shy marlin]

[lunar sapphire]

Walking to the city (Black Forest) to gather some blueberries 🫐 (appontment)

[pliant hatch]

I was using green, yellow, orange and red as colors on signs to show how dangerous a biome was. With green being used for spawn and the traders.
But that also means I have to change the colour of the sign each time I move on, as by the time you've entered the mountains, the black forest isn't that dangerous compared to when you enter it the first time.
So using a set colour for it may be more useful.

But I'll check that another day. For now I'm trying to sleep and hopefully my nets are full of fish tomorrow. 😉

[regal spoke]

You dream of a flowing stream

[pliant hatch]

Could you - once you're stationary again - have a look at that link I posted a bit earlier and perhaps pin it so people can find a page for the color codes for signs?

Please?

[lunar sapphire]

What do you have to offer for this trade?

[regal spoke]

Let me know what you come up with for your color code system. Always interested in people's perspective. I did similar for coding food. Health items red. Stamina items yellow.

[lunar sapphire]

Sign color codes:

https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.php

[regal spoke]

I think atgeir should have a bit more than -5 mov penalty. It is a pole arm after all

[pliant hatch]

My gratitude for starters.
And I'll behave for the next couple of weeks. Meaning I won't call anybody butt ugly and not even tasting nice. 😄

[lunar sapphire]

You’re offering a couple weeks of good behaviour for this transaction?

Imma bout to hit refund

[pliant hatch]

Trust me, I'm Dutch.
I'm often direct and very often a bit too much.
Behaving a couple of weeks is hard enough for me to do.

[regal spoke]

Billy Mays here with another fantastic transaction

[pliant hatch]

Besides, I did ask it nicely. 😜

I could've asked it without the "please" for instance.

[vocal rivet]

I literally only know that reference because of Cards Against Humanity.

[regal spoke]

You're blessed friend. I could hear his voice while typing that lol

I've only played CAH a couple times. Fun game though. Is drinking usually involved when you play too?

[vocal rivet]

It certainly helps, but not compulsory. But you HAVE to have similarly minded people to play with as it relies on getting on people's humour wavelength.

[calm scroll]

furnace not letting me and friend repair iron tools rn ?

[rotund bay]

atgeirs and doublehanded swords only do -5% movement penalty, hammers and battleaxes do -20%
oop

[vocal rivet]

Iron tools will be repaired on the forge. Typically, you use the device you created an item on to repair it.

[calm scroll]

yes i mean forge

nevermind im dymb

level 1 forge hahaaahahah

[regal spoke]

Forge needed an upgrade to repair the thing?

[noble axle]

building hammer +50% move speed 😄

[tacit crown]

I got muted and deleted. They don't like me preaching truth

[shy marlin]

sounds cool but then the hammer suddenly becomes one of the best combat weapons in the game

[calm scroll]

ye

[regal spoke]

Cool. Yea I've been there too

[onyx lava]

Where?

[regal spoke]

If true can build hammer get bonk expression

[regal spoke]

I've been in the position of, not understanding why I couldn't repair an item at a bench. Only to realize the bench needed an upgrade to repair an upgraded item

[onyx lava]

Nahhh never happened.I was complaining a few days ago about not being able to make sausages with tier 1 caludron lol

[ebon iris]

it illegal to ask if anyone wants to play w me here?

[vocal rivet]

Of course not, but you're best off looking in #1024264966712340510 where people will be posting their server info.

[onyx lava]

Yes 100% illegal BAN HIM!

[ebon iris]
