Or even https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736

[sinful fulcrum]

or craft the forge, no cost I believe, then get the chest crafting from it

[cosmic kindle]

Should i make my base in the black forest or in the medows really close to the black forest,

[pliant hatch]

For crop growth and monster spawning at nights after defeating bosses it won't matter much. For copper mining a base in the BF may be more convenient, but for sailing the BF coast is more dangerous.
You can build one at the border of both biomes if you like, or you build a small one now and eventually build a big, permanent base in the plains (as that's the only biome where crops from the BF / Mountain and plains will grow.)

[raven path]

do you just keep building workbenches in order to increase your build area?

[light moat]

Yep!

Usually before starting a project, I’ll place like 3 workbenches and stonecutters to cover a wide area.

[frail wagon]

haldor? i hardly know her!

[cosmic summit]

is skol and hati a good weapon?

[light moat]

I’ve heard good things about it, haven’t used it personally. Must be better than Jotun Bane lol

[noble axle]

yea people have said they used it in Ashlands and it still holds up

[true mortar]

Quick question for more experienced players. I just run up to body piles and use my abyssal razor to destroy it but my gf who has been playing for 2.5yrs says they will kill me, I have done it to like 3-4 body piles and haven't died. Am I just insane and stupid lucky or is she overly cautious

[nimble moss]

body piles dont kill you. They just spawn mobs, and those mobs could kill you.

You should be killing body piles if you want to stop the spawns - but depends if you are hanging around or passing through

[ancient agate]

Spawners will occasionally already have spawns nearby as well, but if you find them before they have generated any creatures and there weren't regular spawns, your approach is valid

[true mortar]

I've only found one body pile outside of a crypt and when I find one in a crypt I instantly destroy it so it can only spawn one or two mobs

[ancient agate]

They take time to reach their cap, 3 for Greydwarfs for example

[cosmic summit]

I just got krom and i feel like im playing darksouls

[agile rose]

Hello recently I have been playing valheim with a friend and we put a particular mod to make the bosses a little stronger and have more skills, Question that we are going for the 1 boss the deer and it is very difficult to kill it because it always heals more than what we take away I would like to know if it is some kind of bug or if it is. If so, who has played the mod, could you tell me how I got to kill him? Thank you

Eikthyr

[gray sand]

#mods-issues

[agile rose]

Thanks

[plush umbra]

Playing on Very Hard with my friend (who is a first time player), what sort of weapon should I use for this difficulty? I mostly just use club/mace and shield, but is that going to be viable all the way through to Ashlands?

[gray sand]

Same as you used in Normal: Whatever you, personally, feel like using.

Only main difference for VH is you won't be blocking anything. Just rolling.

[craggy niche]

A weapon that you feel confident you can secure kills with while taking at most one hit (usually zero hits)

[shy marlin]

Atgeir and bow are always a solid option on vh

[gray sand]

Magic still OP AF. 😄

[shy marlin]

i don't like to think about magic it makes me upset

it's actually crazy how strong mage is on very hard specifically

[gray sand]

Goes well with the vegetarian diet too. 😏

[shy marlin]

1. You no longer care about enemies doing more damage because of bubble. 2. Your weapons actually start doing more damage due to a bug (troll stav, deadraiser, staff of wilds etc), full ranged with zero downside. 3. Staff of embers

It's actually disgusting 🤮

[gray sand]

Not as disgusting as you not

1. Pressing
2. Enter
3. For
4. Listing

[shy marlin]

[gray sand]

Fix it 😭

[shy marlin]

no

[gray sand]

Pain.

[shy marlin]

now you understand the pain i feel about magic

[paper marsh]

Magic would feel a lot better with a big nerf

[spice tundra]

if greylings fear fire do they run away from the dyrnwyn?

Admin doesnt give you devcommand perms

unfortunately

[regal spoke]

@paper marsh good to see a SoftSnail in chat o7

[nimble moss]

I didnt think devcommands works on dedicated servers (unless you have a mod that enables it)

Your best option is load your character in a single player world, give yourself the items lost there, and then load your char back onto the multiplayer map

[sour furnace]

Just make it all do pierce! There you go! Unuseable!

[cedar swan]

What's the best iron age shield?

And weapon

[gray sand]

Best is subjective.

[nimble moss]

Arguably the “best” is a combination of many weapons, where you swap to ensure the specific mob you are fighting is having a weapon suited to it

[true mortar]

Is getting 423 iron from one crypt a lot? (I have 3x resources)

[gray sand]

Isn't everything technically "a lot" given you have all resources tripled?

[blazing coral]

good morning I wish you all a nice Sunday and lots of fun gaming

[noble axle]

yes even on 1x resources thats 141 iron which is a LOT

[gray sand]

Have... fun?
Don't tell me how to live my life!!

😏💛😁

[true mortar]

Wow, it was my 2nd crypt

And my first one I only got about 50-60

[gray sand]

50-150 is the norm from my experience.

[cosmic igloo]

yea you're almost done

for now

[jovial dome]

( @merry pebble responding here cuz of slow mode in #screenshots ) I figured the world generation just screwed me over since I’ve fought it before on a multiplayer world and it was nowhere NEAR that far away T_T

[merry pebble]

Yeah, rng is sometimes like this 🙂

[jovial dome]

Can’t wait to make that journey

[true mortar]

I'm playing 2 player so I'm gonna be getting at least another 200

Cus I'm gonna make us both max level armour, mace and buckler and maybe some other stuff (we already have iron pickaxes and an axe)

[cosmic igloo]

alright

[true mortar]

Luckily I have like 50 crypts in this tiny swamp near my base

[fossil fossil]

how long does it take for my items to despawn after Idie?

[near furnace]

about 3 days

[nocturne wolf]

Your grave never despawns

[prime ingot]

Do starred wolves despawn at day

[merry pebble]

Yep, if they didn't start taming

[fossil fossil]

what does cant be teleported means? cant be transferred to another sv?

[near furnace]

by boat 🙂

[nocturne wolf]

It can’t be taken through portals

[fossil fossil]

ahhh ok ok, no idea this game has portal anw

[merry pebble]

#screenshots message @keen trench Its somewhat far, but hardly the worst it can be 🙂

[cosmic igloo]

i saw some advice before that u shouldnt try to flatten an area and remove all obstacles before building there, as those obstacles and imperfections give the build more character. man its so true

[keen trench]

downsides of RNG i guess, never got it that far, also sticking to my 3/4 worlds since 2021, not that much to evaluate scientific average 😉

[azure crag]

By boat and the wind always go to the opposite direction

[near furnace]

yes

[merry pebble]

If you really want then you can plan your journeys by the day you are currently on 🙂 since weather/wind is the same on all worlds on each day

[near furnace]

I don't really understand why people just can't remove the sail and just use the paddle to go at 1/3 speed

why is that so taboo?

[merry pebble]

I do that 🙂 i can just browse something while sailing that way or just immerse maself into the music

[cosmic igloo]

same

[azure crag]

I always do that, because that the only way to go home

[cosmic igloo]

btw have u guys thought about a "strength" skill? you already have running/swimming/jumping which is kinda "athleticism" or "dexterity"

strength could boost stuff like carry capacity or paddle speed

[near furnace]

no

we have not

[fossil vault]

Just learn tacking

[azure crag]

Straight i like it

[cosmic igloo]

alright, its just one of the things i noticed first because other games have it

[near furnace]

yeah. having "your" game basicly just a copy of all other games seems like a good idea, but it actually isn't

[cosmic igloo]

nah im not saying that

[near furnace]

but that's what I am hearing 😛

[cosmic igloo]

like other games have building too

other games have ability to swim or jump

[azure crag]

what the game name with that mechanic?

[cosmic igloo]

smelting exists in minecraft

doesnt mean valheim = minecraft

[cosmic igloo]

for example minecraft or kenshi

[merry pebble]

I am pretty sure minecraft does not have a concept of skills that you level up 🤔

[cosmic igloo]

im confused what u think im arguing

[merry pebble]

Some sort of strength skill

[cosmic igloo]

what about it

[near furnace]

Valheim took ideas from Terraria, Zelda and Dark Souls

[cosmic igloo]

ah yea terraria too @azure crag

[azure crag]

Wait what

[cosmic igloo]

terraria has building too

[near furnace]

yeah. but valheim building requires stability to function

[cosmic igloo]

sure theres nuance to it

[azure crag]

i think you mention "Skill" on terraria not "building"

[near furnace]

and also, you can't build heavy things on brittle things

[cosmic igloo]

yep

[near furnace]

so it's an advancement in how features work

[cosmic igloo]

yes

for example, in kenshi more strength increases unarmed dmg. in valheim strength can increase paddle speed. its an advancement in how features work

or strength can increase dmg with weapons

[near furnace]

would be to OP atm

or becomming to complicated systems

[cosmic igloo]

too

[near furnace]

keeping things simple, is also something invaluable

[cosmic igloo]

and yea fair enough but im saying you can add stuff from other games without it becoming that game

like swimming in black flag didnt make it subnautica

just made it a better game

[near furnace]

there are 100's of games where you have
Damage from sword = ((sword damage - worn state) + (skill level - debuff) + (character stats like strength - debuff) + (enhancements)) - monster resistances

this is fun for the RPG people. but the broad casual gamers, this becomes tidious

[shy mantle]

Guys how do you pronounce Gjall? I've always said as "y'all"

[near furnace]

^ yes

with a G Ya'll 😉

[shy mantle]

kinda like gy'all

[keen trench]

there's a pretty extensive section about that in official wiki, i found that interesting to read

[shy mantle]

Cool I'll have a read

[nocturne wolf]

Notice how there’s no rng here ❤️
Why does valheim have damage variance?

[keen trench]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Gjall trivia section, just read it yesterday first time

[azure crag]

Valheim is fun until someone show game mechanic formula

[nocturne wolf]

How does that take the fun out?

[terse bear]

hey guys just wondering what fps you guys normally get while playing i tend to struggle around 15-20 most times, i do play with mods so not sure if anyone runs into this same issue?

[azure crag]

25-30

[azure crag]

have you reduce the render?

[terse bear]

yea nothing seems to help unfortunately

there are times where i literallty get 5 and have to log out and back in to get 15-20 again

[azure crag]

you playing it while charging?

[near furnace]

depends on your hardware

[terse bear]

i dont think so?

[terse bear]

i exceed the requirements to play but for some reason i struggle to get decent fps

[near furnace]

say your hardware instead

there are 1000's of factors to low FPS

what CPU, GPU, RAM you got, laptop? desktop? how does it handle heat? Xbox, PC, Mac? how many monitors are connected to your PC, is Bios updated?

etc etc

[terse bear]

2060 super , 4.9ghz, i7 intel 32g ram im on a desktop never had heating issues two monitors im pretty sure everything has been updated

[near furnace]

how much have you build ingame? how much smoke do you make? how many map markers have you placed? how many animals do you have around you?
etc

[pliant hatch]

How any mods are you running and are there mods among them that add stuff to the environment?
Because the more instances you have at your base, the lower the FPS gets.

[near furnace]

ah yes. and not even starting with mods causing issues 😄

Video on how to optimize your windows PC
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IBkMW39egU

[terse bear]

lol i just watched this video and unfortunately did not help im assuming it has to do with mods, what type of mods could cause issues?

[near furnace]

all of them

if you have mods and FPS is low. we have a help channel for that with people knowledge on mods -> #mods-issues

[terse bear]

okay thank you appreciate the info

[near furnace]

np

btw. Valheim compared to alot of other games, will give your hardware a run for it's money

[terse bear]

lol yea i would not have expected that tbh

[near furnace]

and also, valheim likes CPU and Fast RAM 🤔

[terse bear]

btw love the game and appreciate the work you guys are doing excited for the upcoming content

[gaunt crest]

From the devolopers perspective: Why are so many games so badly optimised these days? Graphics cards these days are so powerfull, yet the graphics hardly improve and performence is reducing. Gta 5 for example is one of the very few VERY well optimised games that runs on any potato Pc.

And how do you guys handle with this?

[near furnace]

I got a good response to that 🤔

but it's a video 😄

[near furnace]

Personally I am more upset with hardware maker, microsoft and such. over optimisation issues

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEtX_Z7zZSY

[gaunt crest]

Can you give more context?

[near furnace]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mv6cIC1QrkM

[near furnace]

Why is RAM usually locked speed from what you is being told when you buy them?
DDR4 is locked at 2133 or 1833. when they are told to the consumer, 3000Mhz or 3200, 3400 etc

why isn't windows unlocked with all the power modes etc for gaming?
why do I have basicly have to adjust so many settings, just to unlock my performance I've already paid for?

[gaunt crest]

Mine runs at 3400 and has like a 9.2ms latency. Also thanks for the videos. Will take a look at them. 🤟

[near furnace]

np 🙂

but also. optimization isn't easy

[gaunt crest]

I see. Does windows take away so much performance?

[near furnace]

yes. since windows is set to almost power-saving mode

which reduces so many things 😦

and laptops...

the word gaming laptop

[gaunt crest]

Laptops are just.... No. And well yes I have Windows 10 enterprice and yes I have set many settings too at max power settings and I have great performance with my gtx 1060 6gb and Ryzen 5600x. So in that way I understand what you mean.

[gaunt crest]

Yeah I completely understand. How do you guys tackle this?

[near furnace]

uum. not sure I am allowed to say all secrets

but we look at performance, how much "time" something takes from the CPU etc

we got people for it 😄

but sometimes. you have to sacrafice things

[gaunt crest]

Is it also just a simple as making codes line as effecient/short as possible?

[near furnace]

god no

there is a reason why we tell the CPU what to do in what order, instead of just letting the CPU sort stuff

so giving valheim access to more threads on the CPU doesn't do much

[gaunt crest]

Interesting. Yeah I studied software developing for a year but I quit after java script because I didn't wanna break my head over it but it always kept interesting me.

[near furnace]

I hear ya' 😄

[gaunt crest]

I imagine maybe AI can be a solution for optimization in games. Is this already happening? And no I am not talking about the rtx 5000 series with their AI fake frames ofc xD

[steady bough]

holy bottleneck

[near furnace]

doubt that

[gaunt crest]

Yeah I am planning to get the 3060 12 gb this summer

[near furnace]

People put to much faith in AI

[steady bough]

good idea, very well priced used.

DLSS / AI frames will become the new norm as developers all make games on UE5 and dont optimise. unfortunately its a cold truth

edit* im having a stroke

[near furnace]

honest opinion

FPS does not make a good game

[gaunt crest]

Oh yeah that is true. 100%

I rather have a good game at 30 fps then a shit game at 120 fps

[near furnace]

best thing is just to remove FPS counters

[steady bough]

I agree. Unfortunately I do not spend a lot of money on nice parts just for them to run at 20fps, stutter or have issues though.

Dune awakening, kingdom come, star wars jedi survivor, mafia 3. just a few examples. It is an insult to consumers.

[near furnace]

oh?

lag lag lag?

[gaunt crest]

My top 3 games are Rust, Valheim and Teardown. Both 3 maybe not the best optimized games but very high quality gameplay.

[steady bough]

Rust has come a long way in optimisation, its unity though right? kinda limited

[near furnace]

I did enjoy Hogwarts legacy. even tho the stutter was sometimes anoying

[gaunt crest]

Yup it's unity based

[near furnace]

tho that was because of VRAM

[gaunt crest]

I do expect maybe a engine change for rust in the future.

(Or I hope tbh xd)

[steady bough]

ue5 😂

[gaunt crest]

[near furnace]

ouch. from UE4 to UE5?

[woeful dew]

Whos waiting for the update to do one more playthrough of valheim

[vocal rivet]

Probably thousands.

[near furnace]

millions 😄

is my bet

I got a big guess that many people are waiting for 1.0 launch before buying and playing it

[near furnace]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBQvL5YR3eg

also good video

[pliant hatch]

Smiffe, just a curious question: is the animation of the Greydwarves and the Greylings based upon the way Kermit the Frog behaves after announcing a special guest in the Muppetshow intro animation?

Because quite often it looks like that when they're running with their hands up.

[near furnace]

no idea 😄

but I dougt that

If I had to guess

[light moat]

All decked out in Mistlands Eitr gear, time to see what it’s all about 👀

Also, just hit hour 900, so close to 1000 🤌 sorry Irongate for buying your product for $15 and getting way too much entertainment out of it

[shy mantle]

When is it worth using a two handed sword over a one handed + buckler? I have the krom and mistwalker, but I can only see very few occasions where using the krom would be better

[light moat]

I think the 2 handed swords have better DPS against a single target, iirc. Maybe?

[shy marlin]

2h greatswords are better against bosses

Bout it

[tacit crystal]

Correct, 2h swords have higher damage per hit, tad slower than 1h swords but still higher DPS. Secondary attack are similar in wing up time and damage multiplier (3x) which 2h sword wins in too. For example, against 6th boss it is really good.

2h swords however, have MTP and 1h swords don't.

[shy marlin]

Give 2h swords cleave and 1h swords mtp

[tacit crystal]

Another weekly discussion.

[sinful fulcrum]

I am a big fan of using 2h weapons over 1h weapons, especially mauls, in this game however, maul is only effective for groups

and between 2h sword vs sword and shield, the parry mechanic is too rewarding for me that it is better

[tacit crystal]

Depends also which enemies facing, against some starred enemies like Charred Warriors buckler is safer for parrying. But most non star enemies can be parried with 2h weapon.

[gray sand]

<thousands? millions? MORE Stargate Atlantis Gif here>

This server is gonna be crazy once 1.0 drops 👀 might have to slink back into the shadows lol

[chrome badge]

Haha, you better not your feedback is always ideal for players and developer alike

[naive surge]

Any help would be great. I'm on a dedicated server that a friend has sorted for us and quite often when we enter new areas it doesn't load in completely, most of the time its just open areas with nothing, no trees or rocks. Sometimes it will eventually catch up but with a lot of the dungeons caves etc they just don't show. Any help would be great as we've been struggling to figure it

[near furnace]

you people will access to General chat 2.0 will have it all to yourself 😄

[pallid arrow]

when they will update Hervor Bloodtooth or just already there have it?

[merry pebble]

In some of future devblogs i assume, those come once a month usually

[tacit crystal]

When February dev blog??

[merry pebble]

Please no...

[tacit crystal]

[cosmic igloo]

why

a lot of new ppl?

[vocal rivet]

A hell of a lot.

[merry pebble]

I might ignore the server for a while once DN drops to avoid all spoliers 😄

[vocal rivet]

Ill have finished the game by that point. Which is a weird feeling.

[merry pebble]

Yeah

[pliant hatch]

@regal spoke
Some more experiments were done today: #building-screenshots message

Round Grausten roof pieces at the first row, straight Grausten roof pieces at the 2nd row, Grausten corner pieces to create that small roof opening.
Round roof piece won't create an opening when placed on top of the straight ones - as I expected - so I will create those windows using the 26° tarred shingle roof piece.

[late prism]

does anyone know when the next update will be?

[pliant hatch]

we heard it'll be when it's ready.
Which is most likely when 1.0 is going to be released.

Which we try to figure out ourselfs, but so far neither the devs nor any fortune teller is willing to tell us when.

Meaning:

Your guess is just as good as that of any of us.

[paper marsh]

Could be that they did a little update or two before 1.0, no? Or have they said their focus is 1.0 now

[late prism]

love the username

[vocal rivet]

I'd find it hard to believe there'd be NOTHING before 1.0 but it won't be a big content release. Maybe just paving the groundwork.

[warm sandal]

there has been.... the bogwitch

[vocal rivet]

Huh?

I presume they mean after now.

[frosty cypress]

wahts best way to flip an overturned cart?

[late prism]

walk on it

[pliant hatch]

Smash it until it breaks, rebuild, load again

[paper marsh]

^ and anything in the cart just drops in boxes on the ground, nothing gets lost

[plush umbra]

when will the next update come?

[frosty cypress]

i thought of breaking it down but ill have to take everything out cuz of no cart damage mod but was hoping there was a better way or a mod but didnt see anything like that with my searches

[merry pebble]

We dont know

[late prism]

scroll up a bit i asked the same quewstion

[pliant hatch]

#valheim-chat message

[vocal rivet]

Ugh. We desperately need the bot back.

[pliant hatch]

Or Samaramon making a new gif we can use......

[late prism]

hows everyones day going?

[pliant hatch]

The big question is: would she?
And if not, what would it cost us to bribe her....

[vocal rivet]

You could just ask her.

[pliant hatch]

I could, yes. Perhaps I will some day too. But that's not today.

Today I'm trying to figure out in which chest I should drop the Eikthyr Antlers.

[tacit crystal]

"Misc" chest would be my choice.

[pliant hatch]

And realizing my sorting system doesn't work, because I had forgotten that I had to add a chest for Yggdrasil wood.
As well as a chest for Linen / Flax

[merry pebble]

You could have chest dedicated to boss related stuff, summoning items/drops from them

[pliant hatch]

Was just considering to do that while removing some spare fluids from my system.
Somehow that place is indeed the best spot to get good ideas. 😄

[paper marsh]

Is that the blood donation clinic?

[pliant hatch]

If I donate blood to some bowl in that particular room, something is very wrong with my body.

So.............

No.

[shy mantle]

Lightning vs blood vs poison weapons from the ashlands upgrades?

[tacit crystal]

Which weapons you're interested in most? Melee, ranged or magic?

[shy mantle]

Melee, sword at the moment

[tacit crystal]

Iolite weapons have chance to create a chain lightning that hits your target and can also chain to nearby enemies.

Bloodstone weapons have increased damage (0,2%) per 1 lost HP point, so for example 100 missing HP would increase the damage by 20%.

Jade weapons have chance to immobilize enemies, which prevent them moving or turning around.

Both jade and iolite weapons are very good, bloodstone can be good but it requires some HP management and extra careness.

[nova mantle]

Almost got 2 max accs in valheim!

[vocal rivet]

Ok?

[nova mantle]

how many u got

[vocal rivet]

No idea.

[nova mantle]

wdym

you have 2 many?

[vocal rivet]

You mean too many? No, I'm just not at my PC and can't remember.

[nova mantle]

oooh ok

[nova mantle]

yea i mean too many

[shy mantle]

man these infested mines are annoying. 10 cores on my first one, then 3 and 1

[plush umbra]

ten cores on your first mine is actually awesome. I believe the average is around 4-5 per mine

[nova mantle]

wait what biome are you guys talking abt?

[plush umbra]

the most I've ever found at once was 9

[plush umbra]

Mistlands

[shy mantle]

Seems my luck is balancing itself out then lol

[nova mantle]

yea i wasnt sure if it was that

yesterday i went to the infested mines i believe we found 11 cores and 4 or 5 secret rooms

[pliant hatch]

Looks like the Sadistic Number Generator was on your side

[nova mantle]

wait lemme check how many we got

[plush umbra]

on regular res amount?

[nova mantle]

we got 12 but i dont know how many we got from the dungeon or what ever

[plush umbra]

12 is great considering you only need 15 for a full setup

[nova mantle]

yea but it was like our 7th dungeon

we are 5 ppl so everyone has their own house

so we need the black forges for all of em

but 2 of em dont play much

[plush umbra]

Oof. I usually start off with a main community base that's got everything and then ppl make their own after so that everyone has access to the crafting

[nova mantle]

yea i think we are gonna make a base for all of us

[merry pebble]

10 cores in first one is some amazing luck xD

[plush umbra]

or just let ppl come craft stuff at my place

[nova mantle]

with max everything, and in bases lvl 1 workbenches/forges

[plush umbra]

yep
ppl can work on leveling their own bases however they feel like after the community one gets maxxed

at least how I play

[light moat]

We finally got enough black cores to make all the stations. Now we’re just looking for the vegvisir- which is honestly a great problem to have haha

[nova mantle]

i mean i wouldnt say we are a community mostly just a friend group

[vocal rivet]

Separate bases? Doesn't seem so co‐op.

[plush umbra]

same thing, just easier for my brain to think of it like that lol

[nova mantle]

oh ok, just thought you were like a bigger community

[pliant hatch]

For the Vegvisir in infested mines you need quite often to look up when you're in the mined out areas.
I've seen them being perched on some stone ledge quite often. And not on ground level, as one might expect.

[light moat]

Do they spawn in those little pools underneath the bridges in the mines? 🤔

[nova mantle]

anyone wanna see some pics of what me and my friend have been building? ps. They arent that good

[light moat]

I’m usually pretty good about sniffing out every corner of a dungeon lol

[plush umbra]

everyone has their own base, but there's a big communal hub too where stuff gets organised

[vocal rivet]

Strange, but fair enough.

[plush umbra]

sure. https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202310893757530142 is the place to share that

[nova mantle]

wait ill get good pics

[plush umbra]

I'm not an awesome builder either, but I like to make some stuff once in a while

[nova mantle]

1 more pic

and then ill send them

[plush umbra]

now they should be there

You might want to check https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 for anyone willing to do that.

[tacit crystal]

Press F.

||To pay respects||

[fossil fossil]

thanks man

[pliant hatch]

If you mean the ones from defeating bosses:

1. Hang the trophy from the head to the hook at the right sacrificial stone.
2. Click at it to activate the buff and have it as an selected option available to you. Keep in mind, you can have only one buff selected.
3. press F when you need it.

[fossil fossil]

helps as well, also how long can I use it again?

[pliant hatch]

It lasts for 5 minutes and have a base cooldown of 20 from the moment you activated it.
So the moment it runs out, you still can't activate it for 15 minutes.

[fossil fossil]

thanks again

seems like I cant do it for now

[tacit crystal]

Does the icon next to food slot icons (bottom left) have timer on it?

[obtuse remnant]

Instead of using Ashlands gemstones to upgrade a weapon directly, would you prefer to have been able to create a gemstone accessory that adds the specific damage type to all damaging attacks?

[lapis pagoda]

Just build my first hot tub, pure peak

[robust delta]

hell yea

[shy mantle]

Carapace buckler vs shield?

[nocturne wolf]

The buckler parries significantly better, so if you're parrying a lot, make that.

[buoyant ether]

man im so torn between if i should do a run since its been a good while, or wait for the deep north update

probs no date yet ?

[vocal rivet]

Do you plan on taking a year for your run?

[buoyant ether]

oh it might be that long

well then yeah, i was having a headcanon if maybe a few months

[cosmic igloo]

do another run

[tacit crystal]

The game is here now, the DN is there later on. Do it now, do it later too.

[fossil fossil]

when can u craft armors in valheim?

[merry pebble]

You mean metal armor?

[fossil fossil]

I mean like, I'm getting these bronze thingies, on stage one but I can't seem to use it without that particular thing

[merry pebble]

You will be able to make stuff from bronze in second biome 🙂

[fossil fossil]

how do u use the bronze? at what stage am i able to use it

[tacit crystal]

How far are you in, you have mined copper, tin, correct?

[fossil fossil]

yeah, first boss defeated ig?

[merry pebble]

Then go to hammer and make forge 🙂

[tacit crystal]

Have you smelted them metals you've mined?

[fossil fossil]

yeah but at what stage am i able to smelt it

[tacit crystal]

You need to find a component for smelter from burial chambers.

[merry pebble]

At the one you are at, you need things from black forest dungeons

[fossil fossil]

ahhh I see

[tacit crystal]

You will get the recipe for smelter and kiln once you grab one of them.

[fossil fossil]

I get it now, I seem to have gotten confused the smelter and a furnace that's why I was confused mb

[tacit crystal]

No problems. 👍

[craggy niche]

@merry pebble cleared Yagluth last night. On the subject of breakable Yagluth pillars, they were destroyed by the end of the fight. Perhaps the pillars are only destructible after Yagluth is summoned?

[merry pebble]

Yeah, i encountered it today too, was surprised by it and actually had the exact same theory xD

[craggy niche]

Interesting behavior that I never noticed

[wispy imp]

Has something changed in terms of how close items can be without being "grouped together"? I tried feeding my hens in a breeder and my seeds ended up merged together to one pile when I them infront of my hens cages.
Hasn't seen this before and the breeder worked as intended at least last week
(Playing on Xbox X)

[merry pebble]

Its not how close together they are but how many items are on the ground in certain area 🙂 (not necessarily the same items)

[wispy imp]

Oh haha I did release 20 2 star wolfs that are out and killing so that might explain it 😅
I'll try and clean up after them tomorrow and try again. Thanks for the super fast help & info 😀

[wraith lark]

can i place a chest onto a raft

[merry pebble]

Nope

[nocturne wolf]

No, but if you get a better boat those have built-in storage

You can get a new one after progressing part-way through the second biome

[wraith lark]

just got tin so

heading back to base

what is the black forest the second biome

[merry pebble]

Yep

[tall ginkgo]

what site is good to rent a cheap server?

[ancient agate]

Man, I found this tiny speck of Mistlands on the tip of some Plains. Farmtastic

[wraith lark]

dose fog couse a lot of lag

[merry pebble]

Not in my experience 🤔

[wraith lark]

my game went to 40 fps when the fog roll in

rtx 3050 8 gb with all high

[noble axle]

it shouldn't really cause any

[merry pebble]

Maybe if you have lots of lights around? You could turn the lights setting a bit down, that usually helps fps quite a bit

[wraith lark]

Active point lights

[merry pebble]

Yeah, i think that could be it, dont remember exactly since i didnt mess with my settings in quite a while

[late prism]

anyone here from Norway?

[tacit crystal]

Summary of this session in my bow challenge world: Went to small area of plains to scout for berries and also for some loxen and deathsquitos for their materials. Also got some tar and accidentally found Yagluth vegvisir there too and the altar isn't too far. 🤭 Then found Moder vegvisir too from the same mountain but her altar is really far... But also accidentally found some silver that peeked from cliff and mined it. Around 50th day now.

[little latch]

Fresh playthrough!! Lmk

[frozen void]

👀

[wraith lark]

why are the tree trolls attacking me wild im mining for copper

[near furnace]

they got huge headaces. and dislike loud pickaxe noices

[late prism]

you norwegian?

[frozen void]

yeah

[late prism]

kor i norge e du fra?

[frozen void]

english only in here

southwest tho

but this is also only for valheim 😛

[late prism]

ah okay mb

[late prism]

im from Trondheim well close tho

[late prism]

you been playing a long time?

[frozen void]

since a couple days after early access launched

[late prism]

damn i only started abt 6 days ago🤣

[late prism]

i got 43 hours on valheim still in bronze age tho, trying to find the elder to get to next age.. also trying to find a new place to have a house cause the area where im at is kinda small and i wanna change up my building style

[rotund bay]

Anyone wanna play together?

[buoyant panther]

Give #1024264966712340510 a whirl

[cosmic kindle]

If i build on a crypt in the swamps will i be safe?

[ancient agate]

Do people find that there is usually more Black Marble from disassembling a tower or harvesting a Giant Remains?

[noble axle]

disassembling dvergr buildings

[livid zenith]

Mostly safe, wraiths and bow draugrs can still hit you, but the other enemies can’t (unless there’s terrain that allows them to get up)

I usually put portals on top of crypts and they stay safe unless I stay around them for a while at night

[ionic arch]

what does "Dedicated Server" means?

[tepid prawn]

basically its hosted on someone's extra (spare) computer or an a bought 3rd party server, so its always on when that PC runs, not a temporary hosted sesssion where people only play together when the host is in the game, dedicated are basically online and available 24/7

I have 2 dedicated server that our community pays a company to host for us

[ionic arch]

love the well detailed answer, thank you 🩵

[ionic arch]

are you recruiting ? cuz im LFG, i havent played in so long and i kinda wanna play again

[tepid prawn]

you're welcome, if you want to play with other people you can find these servers in #1024264966712340510 and you should look for some in your regions, the #dedicated-server channel is mostly used for people that have issues with running this or want to know details about mostly self hosted dedicated or asking for good providers for dedicated servers

[tepid prawn]

I'll send you DM about region etc

[sour drift]

Lol I'm never messing with the witch's broom again, it hits as hard as draugrs

The world will always try to place 20. It is possible 1-2 don’t get placed if suitable locations are not found within the procedural rules after 200,000 attempts.

Same for all locations; you can sometimes be slightly less than intended. But you’re likely never to notice.

[wraith lark]

i understand what it means (:

so this game has summoner type shi

[keen trench]

you have to progress quite a bit, magic stuff will come at some point, there will be some

[iron merlin]

if i ahve to progress quite a bit i dont mind as long as the magic and summons are cool af

[keen trench]

yup, i like it a lot too, just saying that for the majority of game progression there will be no magic at all, "rush" after 5th boss if you want to start it 😉

[iron merlin]

will i have beeg swords before that

cuz i want to use beeg sword with my army

[azure yacht]

Two-handed swords are only found in the same biome you find magic and on

[keen trench]

surprisingly, the first proper big sword comes along with magic stuff 😆 some nice regular swords before though

[near furnace]

proper?

what about krom? 😦

[keen trench]

i meant exactly that, comes along with magic in game progression

[azure yacht]

I don't think you read that correctly

[iron merlin]

i dont want comically funy large sword, i want a normal big sword

[near furnace]

ooh. I thought you ment the magical 2h swords

[keen trench]

#valheim-chat message exactly that

[radiant pulsar]

Anyone experienced not being able to repair structures anymore? Tried another world and same thing. Tried closing game down completely and still not fixed. Checked the button isn't damaged on my controller but it works when crouching (Click right stick) but not when repairing. Currently reinstalling game ......

[keen trench]

i'm progressing a new character with the sole purpose of making it sword-skill focused for krom

[keen trench]

weird, mods?

[radiant pulsar]

Vanilla completely - Series X

[keen trench]

never happened to me

[radiant pulsar]

Fair enough - thanks anyway

[cosmic igloo]

sure you have appropriate wb nearby?

like stonecutter or workbench

maybe it got destroyed and u dont know it

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah I have 3 lol. Started when I built a long pier between 2 islands. There's multiple workbenches on the pier and all of a sudden - boom repairs suddenly stop. Have I maxed instances and it's caused a bug?

[cosmic igloo]

can you repair other stuff thats not on the pier?

like some random stuff on land

[radiant pulsar]

No - went to another world with different character and can't repair a fence

[cosmic igloo]

repair keybind changed? idk if there even is one lmao

[radiant pulsar]

Have just reinstalled game - gonna try again

[cosmic igloo]

gl

[radiant pulsar]

Yeah I'm thinking it's a key - used to play on PC Game Pass and Elite controller is bound by software but my PC is in for repairs so maybe it's lost its assignment - but the button works for crouching

Ok reinstall works - weird!!!!!!

[cosmic igloo]

sweet brah

[pulsar lotus]

I did not know this game was actually difficult, Meadows is a breeze then you go to the black forest and get immediately chased by red eye dwarfs and red skeletons that do half your health, even when parrying

[keen trench]

eheh, best (or worst?) is yet to come mate

[opal prairie]

Afternoon gjall.

[vocal rivet]

Meadows is pretty much the tutorial.

[ancient agate]

Unfortunately, if an attack would do half your health, unless the party armor changes that, it will stagger you and the block will fail

There's a really good block math resource pinned to the channel

[nocturne wolf]

Party armor??
🎉

[cosmic igloo]

yea and all biomes, except 1, has that jump of difficulty

[signal bloom]

soo is mage build just lackluster in Ashland's or is it me?

[wintry valve]

I wish the fist skill improved basic unarmed hits more than they do now

[tiny tiger]

Which weapons are you using, are you using lingering eitr potions, fire resistance etc

[wintry valve]

fire resistance doesnt do much in ashland

[signal bloom]

staff of wild, frost staff, protection staff, and occasionally troll stav.

Running Askvins armor usually have lingering eitr pots.

[tiny tiger]

Why not mage armor?

[signal bloom]

also running 2 eitr and 1 max ho food

[nocturne wolf]

You don’t need any health if you have a staff of protection

[signal bloom]

too glass cannon, feel like once protection bubble goes down things always spiral

[nocturne wolf]

Just recast it

[signal bloom]

been bitten too many times by rogue Askvins breaking it or 1 tapping while casting it before it can activate

[wintry valve]

the effectiveness of teh bubble is proportional to your blood magic skill. You need to raise that skill using skellies

[nocturne wolf]

Jump attacking allows you to move while performing an attack animation. It’s very helpful with the staff of protection

[signal bloom]

I can't break lvl 35 the amount of time to babysit afk the skellies and amount it drops from careless deaths keeps setting me back. Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time.

recently started trying 2 hp foods and stam and it's just much easier and feels like less risk

[wintry valve]

Well I cant really help. I dont do magic.

[tacit crystal]

This somehow reminded me of "Party snacks".

||You might know if you've played Skyrim.||

[thorny plover]

My name is Eduardo, I started playing recently, I'm from Brazil, would anyone like to play with me? I realized that it can be up to 10 people, I play on steam.

[tacit crystal]

Welcome aboard! You might want to look out from https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 for company.

[pliant hatch]

I'm wondering:

Do you actually need help or advise or simply like to counter everything people advise you as "I can't, I won't, I don't and and shan't."

The most important pieces of advise given to you are to use the skellies to level up blood magic and using mage armor and you reject that.

I hope you do realize that the only way to increase blood magic is to summon skellies; meaning you don't have to baby sit them, as their death means you need to recast them again, which increases your blood magic and so on.

Same with the armor, yes, it might offer less protection, but in combination with the bubble it's actually offering more protection as the Askvin armor does. And even more so when your bubble increases in level due to your blood magic going up.
And to make it even easier, you can do this in Plains, which means that entering Mistlands again and later Ashlands is a lot easier. The reason for that: There's not a single rule or game mechanic that forbids you to go 1-2 biomes back and level up a certain skill to prepare it for the biome it's meant for.

[signal bloom]

thanks, is 3 eitr food the way then with skellies? Never tried it and felt like it was hard to keep skellies up (even when going back to mistlands)

[tacit crystal]

2 Eitr foods should be fine, and if you're in Ashlands (after defeating the Queen) you could add Mistlands feast on that combo, as it gives balanced stats of hp and stamina, but also grants small amount of additional eitr.

You can cast shield on skellies too. They last a bit longer with shield against Ashlands mobs and give you time to deal damage with your elemental staves.

[keen trench]

2 eitr food is sufficient even at low skill

[quick horizon]

Hey

[stable crest]

Does anyone wanna start a new modded play thru with meee

[gentle tundra]

I'm down

[sharp tartan]

When I first got steam one of the first games I got was Crusader Kings 2 since it was free. I really liked it and played it a lot and it immediatley became my most played game on steam. It held that position for just over 8 years until within the past week when Valheim over took it as my most played game on steam. Thank Iron Gate for making what has become my favourite game of all time.

[hardy blaze]

just killed moder
any tips for plains?

wrong channel mb

[sharp tartan]

I'm trying to pick out mods for a new modded playthrough as well. Any recommendations? I've got EpicLoot and ValheimRaft in mind but I don't really know what good options are out there
(unless of course you don't have mods in mind for your playthrough and just want to do a modded playthrough, in that case, ignore me 😅)

[keen trench]

Root armour chest piece, best mountain food + sausages, huntsman bow to be preferred over draugr fang, leave loxen alone for now, and of course bonemass power will save your butt

[pliant hatch]

I'm sure there are people waiting for that in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510

[stable crest]

Plant everything

[cosmic igloo]

dont use skellies m8

[strange lake]

The fader becomes the faded

[cosmic igloo]

as mage all u need is prot bubble - fire staff - vine staff and maybe trollstav

[strange lake]

Ironically, died way less than on The Queen

[signal bloom]

fire staff in Ashland's?!

[cobalt canyon]

Works

[cosmic igloo]

ya blunt dmg

[strange lake]

Four times, and two of those - from getting hit by my own troll meteors

[cosmic igloo]

and about this idk, just adjust ur gameplay style. kite kite kite kite, all ur stamina is used for survival. run 3x eitr or 2x eitr 1x stam

if ur bubble gets popped, jump and while in air make a new bubble (u still have momentum in air)

[signal bloom]

that's prob my issue the HP food and when stuff goes south I can't escape cause no stam

[cosmic igloo]

yea as mage u shouldnt even be taking dmg outside of ur bubble

like if u're at that stage, stuff went wrong long time ago

[nocturne wolf]

Do you have lightfoot mead and feather cape? This will make jump attacking even more effective so nothing can touch you when recasting your shield.

[light moat]

Taking notes as I’m about to get into mage gameplay 👀

[strange lake]

Also this, because ironically, ashlands doesn't have that much fire damage for feather cape to be detrimental

[noble axle]

It has lava

[cosmic igloo]

but bro literally mage gameplay = pop down 3x vines and then run in a circle

[nocturne wolf]

With the staff of protection, damage modifers don't matter

[strange lake]

Don't lava

[noble axle]

😄

[strange lake]

Eh, there might be some mistake where you could get hit by something that can apply burning and with weakness you'd die before you reapply your shield. Especially since black magic drains health too

[cobalt canyon]

It has been

Now you will FIGHT

[strange lake]

The biggest fix ashlands needs is towards it's most challenging property - frame rate drops

[signal bloom]

yeah but I usually take the feather cape off - because gjalls made me scared of fire 🤣

[nocturne wolf]

Barley wine overrides the weakness, so you're resistant while wearing the cape

[signal bloom]

yeahh I just need to keep them up I think then when running it

[cosmic igloo]

u playing on normal difficulty?

[signal bloom]

I don't think I realized you can cast protection while mid air

[signal bloom]

yaa

[cosmic igloo]

id say melee is as good as mage on normal

[cobalt canyon]

Yeah I'm a meleeman

I've tried full mage, doesn't agree with me

[strange lake]

Everyone's a meleeman until they get their hands on some juicy staves

[cosmic igloo]

ya ive been in love w mage ever since i saw the first fireball

[gray sand]

Touched a staff.
Immediately went back to being a melee man.

[noble axle]

Always a melee, mage is fun but gets boring after some time imo

[cosmic igloo]

yea gameplay becomes kinda non-existent since just vines do everything for you

mage in mistlands felt rly good tho

[paper marsh]

Naw, plenty of people swear off magic because it feels too easy, too fantasy, or just wrong

[signal bloom]

I love the vines but . they're kinda slow so when you have a big swarm they struggle

[cosmic igloo]

what u mean struggle?

because when they slam, they do aoe

[paper marsh]

Mage in mistlands feels good to me with some restrictions. Like max 1 eitr food and no fireball staff. Otherwise it feels too easy to me

[cosmic igloo]

and possibility to incapacitate foe

[cosmic igloo]

no fireball staff :(

[signal bloom]

they struggle to dispatch enemies fast enough - but they still hit like trucks

[cosmic igloo]

how many do u usually pop down?

[paper marsh]

I mean, its brokenly OP

[cosmic igloo]

ya 😈

[paper marsh]

Even in Ashlands, where you'd expect fire weapons to do badly, it shreds

[cobalt canyon]

and the bubble staff ain't?

[cosmic igloo]

yea bubble staff fo sho op

[signal bloom]

usually try for all 3

[cosmic igloo]

hm maybe u run too far away from them?

[paper marsh]

it is, but on one eitr food, doing melee combat, and the bubble being popped in one hit I find it alright. I mostly use it for parrying because it feels kinda like bs to me when I'm not allowed to parry an enemy because they do too much damage

[signal bloom]

this 🤣 when Ashland's continent aggro becomes real

[cosmic igloo]

yea try to put them all down a bit spaced out and just kite in their range

you should be getting regular slams then

only annoying stuff is like if valk aoe's them or they tank fire

[signal bloom]

swear it feels like the ai has gotten smarter recently lol the ash warriors always turn and run or go wide on them 😅

but yeah I love the vine staff

[thorny plover]

👋

brasil?

[gray sand]

Is a country, yes.

[thorny plover]

you are brazilian ?

[pliant hatch]

The're may be some citizens of that country here, but keep in mind that using the English language is mandatory over here.

[paper marsh]

There's been some posts about brazillian servers in #1024264966712340510 if you're interested in it, although the posts might be a bit old

[signal bloom]

wow my friend just brought up a neat idea. If I trapped/caged a bunch of Ashland's enemies would it stop spawns in that area?? kinda like the mountain golems

[dusky sequoia]

hello is there any server i can join?

[vocal rivet]

#1024264966712340510

[gray sand]

#1024264966712340510

[paper marsh]

I would imagine so. Sounds easier to just spawnproof the area though

It's nice to do with golems because its just one guy you gotta trap

[signal bloom]

but there's no upkeep to keep fires lit! or is there another way to spawn proof?

[paper marsh]

There's a lot of things that blocks spawns. Campfires, workbenches, torches, etc.

Campfires and torches don't need to be lit to block spawns though. They just need to exist

Generally spamming campfires is the best bet for spawnproofing, especially because enemies don't agro on them

[vocal rivet]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base

[signal bloom]

wait what!? they don't need to be lit??

[lunar sphinx]

I’m at work rn having withdrawals from not playing Valheim.. is this normal

[cobalt canyon]

Yes

[gray sand]

Drink mead. You'll feel better.

[strange lake]

it's mostly because the alternatives are not that great. Frost staff only decent against single enemies (and for leveling elemental magic), dundr blows, fracturing works ok-ish versus big enemies, but that's it.

[nocturne wolf]

Fracturing would be better if everything in ashlands wasn't resistant to the majority of its damage

[tacit crystal]

Fracturing is better for bigger/single targets, but has inferior AoE.

[paper marsh]

I'd disagree

[nocturne wolf]

When we can upgrade it to level 4 in deep north, it will have up to 360 fire damage with each shot + a decent amount of blunt

[paper marsh]

I would say some of the Ashlands magic weapons are a bit undertuned (in comparison to firestaff) from last I tried them, but even if they weren't undertuned and they were at the level of firestaff that wouldn't make firestaff less OP, just make all the staves OP

Especially comparing it to melee weapons, mages just seem to have too easy of a time

[strange lake]

trollstav and roots are pretty decent

though at the stage you get magic, it would feel better if new magic would behave differently, rather than simply outclass previous staves like with other weapons before.

[tacit crystal]

Wild staff was very weak before it got buffed hugely.

[trail pelican]

i think MOSTLY they've done a good job of adding magic staves that work different, don't just totally outclass

[paper marsh]

I think it has decent variety. Just sucks the staves can be hard to balance because the entire fun of them comes from their utility (slowing, AoE, knockback, shielding, etc.), but the utility just makes them broken

[shy mantle]

guys im cooked. when i log into my world, im gonna be unrested, no bonemass, low food health, with a 0, 1, and 2 star seeker all ready to kill me

[nocturne wolf]

Just jump over their attacks
The tallest seeker attack reaches 2m up and most are 1.7m

[gray sand]

Log into a different world.
Wait out the bonemass cooldown timer.
Log back over.

[trail pelican]

i mean, at a certain point you either use devcommands, or you just die and recover your body

this a permadeath run or something?

[gray sand]

Ah the glorious fun of permadeath.

[trail pelican]

yeah they are hard to balance, maybe on some level impossible

[shy mantle]

I just about escaped lads. Mix of major healing, stamina mead, swimming, and getting hit for a boost saved my ass

[trail pelican]

NICE!

[cobalt canyon]

[cosmic kindle]

I have such a good swamp its crazy but i an getting my ass kicked

1 hit and i die from poison

[nocturne wolf]

Make poison resistance mead

[shy mantle]

or root helmet

[cobalt canyon]

mead's more effective but the helmet is reusable

[nocturne wolf]

Make the mead first, and use it to safely gather materials for the helmet

[gray sand]

So you're saying you're boosted? 😏

[paper marsh]

Meads better but helmet is worse

Still I'm a helmet user because resistance meads kinda feel like cheating

[trail pelican]

it's nice to not have to use an extra slot or worry about remembering to refresh the buff--there's value in each existing IMO

[tacit crystal]

Gotta be careful what to wish when needing something. I was hunting wolves for their pelts and thought that would be nice to get them plentiful. Then they started hunting me in very inopportune moment in a cliff of mountain (aka "You are being hunted").

[paper marsh]

Eh helmet just feels less effective and more expensive to me. I guess it is a free inventory slot, but it also replaces a potentially stronger armor piece

Suppose it also depends on your planning. You could take two meads for a 20 minute trip, and 10 minutes in you will have your inventory slot back

[trail pelican]

that's true, the root in particular you're even trading damage weakeness to fire to its kinda a wash

[paper marsh]

Swamp is the only real place to be concerned with poison imo tho, and being wet counteracts fire

[pliant hatch]

That's why it's useful and dangerous in the plains at the same times.

[pliant hatch]

Queen fight is the other location.

[paper marsh]

So you use helmet to get poison resist but then still gotta pull out fire resist mead to get rid of the fire weakness 😂

[trail pelican]

right lol, or just be in the swamp and perma-wet

[fallen monolith]

returning player. Do I need to make a new seed to see the old hag?

if so no worry already did, if not gonna go back to my old world

[trail pelican]

lol

[cobalt canyon]

Not unless you've explored every swamp of your old world, she has to be in unexplored land

[paper marsh]

As long as you have undiscovered swamp in your world she might spawn there. If you've explored basically your whole map then you probably need a new world

[fallen monolith]

I have explored the whole map unfortunately

[trail pelican]

"old hag"--you'll probably think much better of her once you get a taste of the new wares\

[fallen monolith]

I guess that means there is no Ashlands either on that map

[paper marsh]

yea new world then (or modding, think there's a mod called "upgrade world", but yea)

Ashlands generation was a bit weird so I think there might be some, but I imagine its not much

[shy mantle]

Anyone got any valheim "bad habits" that they do?

[pliant hatch]

You mean something like seeing the incompetent floor manager I have to work with as a Greyling?

[tacit crystal]

Drinking too much mead...

[shy mantle]

Can relate

[tacit crystal]

Like a true viking tho.

[paper marsh]

Looting arrows from chests around the world even though I’ve sworn off of using a bow

[gray sand]

I've been stuck on this for multiple minutes trying to think of a single thing...

[shy mantle]

Oh yea this one for sure for me. Guess I keep hold of em for my duo. I prefer crossbows

[shy mantle]

For me, its that I keep manually selecting my weapon/shield instead of pressing R

[serene hollow]

Unable to make myself unbind open build menu from my right mouse button even though it would allow dodge rolling with the hammer out if I did so. I have tried and I just can't make myself do it because I have played the other way for years.

[nocturne wolf]

Why do you need to roll with a hammer? Jumping can dodge most attacks and is better than rolling when it can.

[serene hollow]

There are tons of situations where it is useful. Like rolling in the swamp while having hammer out to repair a bonfre while killing an abom. Just quality of life not required.

[serene hollow]

I prefer avoidance to jumping or rolling to conserve stamina but there are times such as abom fighting, when trying to rush eik and elder using fire that it is beneficial.

[paper marsh]

Rolling is definitely safer if you have the timing right, since it gives you i-frames

[azure yacht]

I'm sure that adding something for an extremely specific situation that involves cheesing isn't even in their list of priorities (not even at the lowest)

[gray sand]

Too bad you can't dodge in the ocean...

We'd call that Rolling in the Deep. 😏

[nocturne wolf]

It prevents you from starting an attack and locks your movement though

[paper marsh]

Yea but in this case it sounds more like you're playing defensively with a hammer in hand

[nocturne wolf]

It also costs 50% more stamina

[paper marsh]

yea, in general jumping out of an attack is pretty good just depends on the situation

In actual combat I like rolling because it allows me to stay up close to immediately follow up with attacks after the roll finishes, especially against enemies with big AoE attacks. Against smaller enemies I like just sidestepping/sidejumping them when they attack sometimes, if not just parrying them

[nocturne wolf]

If you're immediately following up with attacks, you can do that faster with the jump because you can start an attack while jumping but not while rolling

Morgens have very small attack hitboxes, although trolls and stone golems are definitely too large for jumping

[ember panther]

I've come to really like the fenris claws this playthrough. The kick staggers real often and the one two punch hurts. Can eliminate abominations with ease

[nocturne wolf]

Flesh rippers secondary backstab is the highest possible stagger in a single hit

[uneven belfry]

That hardly depends on what Ur fighting, f.ex. unarmed troll AoE / abomination Is not jumpable - but a dodgeroll allows u to just stand there with Ur sharpened stick

[uneven belfry]

Y, underrated imo. Just sad it's the only one in the game as they do fall of hard after mistlands - it's possible to kill morgens and stuff with them but takes wayyy to long to be fun

[nocturne wolf]

I find them to be the best weapon against starred fuling berserkers, since their combo has two hits instead of three, you can get high damage in the short windows you're given to attack.

[ember panther]

Yea I just started venturing into the mists and it's been pretty good at staggering seekers. Once I get my cores tho I'll be transitioning to magic. Love how there's no movement loss too

[uneven belfry]

I think it also takes only 2 kicks to stagger the 2star (so flying kick->roll->kick->punch)

[ember panther]

I managed to punch a gjall to death too 🤣

[uneven belfry]

Just watch out for the starred seekers, those are resistant to those kicks (too big HPpool)

[ember panther]

The 1 stars have been getting staggered, got up to 40ish fisting. But the soldiers I just dodge and punch their butt

[noble axle]

So I'm guessing flesh rippers would not be able to kill fader on very hard? I'm doing a fists only vh run

[ember panther]

I'm sure with enough time you could... but it'd be a slog

[nocturne wolf]

It would probably be possible but slow

[light moat]

Definitely possible, would just a long time lol

[uneven belfry]

Those were my go to for the moder kill on vh... But fader... I'm sure u can pull it off but it'll take a while xd

[noble axle]

[ember panther]

I hope deep north gives some new gauntlets

[noble axle]

I don't wanna fight him for like 2h straight

Yeah same Xale alongside all other weapons

[uneven belfry]

And a combat axe! And maybe a knife (dual wield like skoll and hati vibe would be cool)

[ember panther]

Preferably with just straight damage too... Ashland had all the cool enchantments but sometimes I just want more raw slash or pierce yknow

[uneven belfry]

It might take more than 2h

[noble axle]

Ye it's why I loved the Krom In mistlands

[uneven belfry]

U mean 2 cool enchantments and one useless one ?

[noble axle]

[ember panther]

A new battle axe would be fitting. Like a double headed one

[uneven belfry]

Btw funny thing I noticed some time ago with the bloodstone (did not test it for long enough - maybe I will today that I think about it)
I think the %dmg also counts for the parry knockback when u have the protection bubble active

• here I go to test it brb

[ember panther]

Oh? So you can parry anything at low hp?

[nocturne wolf]

The staff of protection's shield allows you to parry any blockable attack because you take 0 damage and therefore cannot be staggered

[uneven belfry]

So I remember I managed to yeet the warrior miles away when I parried him with the blood slayer but I can't remember what we're the exact conditions, and I can't replicate it rn

[uneven belfry]

But the bubble allows u to parry a 2star seeker soldier with bare hands f.ex.

[nocturne wolf]

If an enemy is mid-air and staggered, they won't slow down. Did you parry it off a slope?

[thorny plover]

Olá a todos ! Boa tarde

[ember panther]

Oh the force kb
Lol I've parried a greyling to outerspace before

[uneven belfry]

And if u Play in a duo - Ur teammate can just wait behind him (or u can run aroun the butt for extra dmg if Ur fast enough)

[uneven belfry]

Yes I think there was a slope - I'm looking for it now

[thorny plover]

thanks man

[forest owl]

where is all your favorite places to make a home base late in game for a solo player?

[azure yacht]

[ember panther]

Plains island 🏝

[vocal rivet]

Meadows.

[forest owl]

ok, thank you

[merry pebble]

Meadows

[forest owl]

Is there a way to find server id in game or only at main menu?

[uneven belfry]

when i had weaker gaming laptop i liked to find myself a little island in the middle of the ocean (make it bigger with a hoe)
allows for nice base aesthetics and bcs all around is ocean - VERY low (like 100-200) base instances that allows to build bigger base with more decorations without losing ur FPS

[steel mica]

curious

what do you guys usually do when you get to swamp? I see alot of people struggle with swamps difficulty ramp up + wetness debuff

[forest owl]

Make sure you have poison resists and always a rested buff

[uneven belfry]

aaand those castles rising from the seas look nice too,
aaaand its quite easy to hoard all ur stuff from the boat as the base is always right at the shore

[steel mica]

other than the usual get rested and prepared what do you actually do when you get to the swamp biome

[merry pebble]

Look for crypts and turnips mostly

[forest owl]

try to go first thing in the morning, use a mace and shield and have good food buffs

[uneven belfry]

• don't go out at night (untill u get swamp/mountain gear)
• use stagbreaker and big fallen trees to cheese hordes of enemies

[merry pebble]

I think the question is more what you actually do in the biome, not how to prepare for it 😉

[steel mica]

i usually make an outpost outside of swamp incase of emergencies and then prepare and then go in swamp and start marking sunken crypts that i could loot later

[forest owl]

build a long boat, hoard as much iron as possible in a haul and make better ghear first lol

[vocal rivet]

The answer is the same as every other biome. Loot local resources, craft new gear, kill boss, next.

[steel mica]

my beloved atgeir carrying me

[forest owl]

Mace and shield is the best in swamps i find

[merry pebble]

I just take pocket portal with me, unnamed so i can just plop it on the ground whenever ifeel i might die in a minute

[merry pebble]

Indeed 🙂

[steel mica]

i dont usually struggle with the enemies in swamp due to atgiers special area attack but the draugr bows are a pain in the ass

get that root harnesk asap

[merry pebble]

Nah, not really

[steel mica]

1 star draugr bow is already a struggle

for me atleast

[forest owl]

Parry is your best when you can get good at it

[merry pebble]

Few rolls or just walking to the side when far enough and you are fine 🙂

[merry pebble]

But you sometimes cant parry attacks if they are too strong and you dont have enough hp 🙂 roll is always reliable (I too love parries, dontget me wrong, just rolling is safer 🙂 )

[steel mica]

rolling is your only saving grace against abominations

[merry pebble]

Nah, those you should parry 🙂

(if you can ofcourse)

[steel mica]

extra dmg yes

but only if u have iron gear

[merry pebble]

#screenshots message @steel mica Its not really the amount of pins that i have problem with... its the amount of text xD Why not use like R for rasberries and B for blueberries etc....

[merry pebble]

You can parry them with bronze buckler 🙂

[steel mica]

ah didnt know that i always carry a bronze atgeir with me

[steel mica]

my ass has trouble remembering what each letter stands for

[merry pebble]

Yeah doing playthrough with them right now, but i start to miss bucklers and parrying 🙂 no matter how awesomely OP atgeirs are

[steel mica]

so i just write the whole thing 🥺

for troll caves or any dungeons i just write them off as sunken crypts = SC

[merry pebble]

I use just Cave for troll caves and Crypt for srypts. 🙂 But burial chambers i do BC

[near furnace]

no. I'd say the amount of pins is a problem since the more of them you got, the worse your FPS becomes 🤔

[merry pebble]

Oh for sure 😄 but i personally am offended more by the text amount xD

[near furnace]

xD

[steel mica]

xd

[steel mica]

i usually check my map at max zoom when doing gathering runs

[merry pebble]

I open the big map and ping the direction i want to go to, them minimap 1 or 2 taps zoomed out 🙂

[steel mica]

atm im still marking all the possible sunken crypts in my swamp

do abominations respawn where they die ?

[merry pebble]

Oh 100% mark all crypts you find, there is never enough iron

[steel mica]

just like the stone golems in the mountain?

[merry pebble]

Yeah but not necessarily at the same spot

[steel mica]

noted

marking them too on my map :)

[merry pebble]

I might be usefull to mark the general area since conditions for spawn were ok the first time so they might spawn again there, but it will not be the exact same spot most likely 🙂

[steel mica]

gotta bet that root harnesk maxed baby

[merry pebble]

Well thats mostly for the durability right? Since the effect is always there 🙂

[steel mica]

yep

extra durability is alwawys nice

in general upgrading your stuff is always nice

[native sand]

yoo who can help me kill the boss yagluth ?

Let's do all the bosses with a flint knife of level one

[steel mica]

some of the bosses would be fairly easy and some... difficult...

[merry pebble]

You would need a number of knives for later bosses 🙂

[noble axle]

there is a youtuber that has done this before I believe

[shy marlin]

Curious if flint knife can even outpace faders passive regen

[steel mica]

bigbriangameplay they used eitr instead of weapons

Day x of another player giving IG their flowers. Love to see it

[noble axle]

NickRawcliffe killed all bosses up to Moder with Flint Knife (when moder was final boss) so up to moder is possible so far, idk abt Yag & the others

[shy marlin]

Yag is doable for sure

Think it ends at the queen tbh

[tepid prawn]

Please release DN between May and December, I don't mind which year but that's when I can test and play the most 🙂

[near furnace]

no promises

and why? january - april is your busy season?

[tepid prawn]

yes sadly, work stuff

[nova verge]

Sry I stopped playing after mist update and before ashes update, so idk about new boss

[near furnace]

like.. 16h shifts off shore work?

[tepid prawn]

12-16 some days but not offshore, too much to not fall asleep at my age when I get home haha

[nova verge]

Yeah, you are cool

[near furnace]

sorry to hear :/

hope the rest of the months are breez and relaxing

[tepid prawn]

Was Moder last boss at some stage pre EA? I only been playing since Feb 2021

[near furnace]

Yagluth

[tepid prawn]

yeah mostly are

[tepid prawn]

thats what I thought too

[near furnace]

the Early access was released with 5 bosses

the open alpha had bonemass as last boss

[noble axle]

hm so that youtuber just didnt fight Yagluth I guess

[tepid prawn]

yeah but see the post above he said there was a time when Moder was last boss, must have been pre EA if it was true

[regal spoke]

Yag had a place holder drop back then yea?

[shy marlin]

yea

[nova verge]

Remember time when a lot of YouTubers were playing Valheim

[tepid prawn]

I have killed the first 5 much more often then Queen and Fader because been playing since Feb 2021, when the others weren't available yet

[regal spoke]

Thanks Scales

[near furnace]

no

Moder was never the "final" boss

[tepid prawn]

so the post above was incorrect then, thats what I thought

[near furnace]

I got both the alpha client, and the early access beta client.

[regal spoke]

We've come a long way from alpha

I just recently seen what some mobs looked like

[tepid prawn]

I just looked at some screenshots from pre H&H with the different food thingies, looks so different

[regal spoke]

I'm also a 2021 player so I wouldn't know* much

[near furnace]

unsure exactly when Yagluth was added

[tepid prawn]

I'm also tempted to do another playthrough on my oldest map with pre release Mistlands and stuff just to see how it works, how stuff generates when I explore new areas

[near furnace]

it was probably during 2020 closed beta

[near furnace]

in areas you have been into, things will be wonky but if you never been to that worlds mistland. it will actually spawn correctly

[near furnace]

they still do tho

[tepid prawn]

I explored a lot of mistlands, was just so safe even though travel was slow with the big root thingies, I was very new and didn't know anything about anything in the game about leaving unfinished biomes alone and all that, also build a dock in ashlands on that map, haven't visited that one yet I think, my oldest map by far

[near furnace]

the "old" and "new" mistlands will mix in funky ways

[nova verge]

Shit, I just wanna spend another 500 h of life playing Valheim, hmmmm

[regal spoke]

You mean food icons/sprites?

[tepid prawn]

yep and i think trolls looked different and all that

[tepid prawn]

2600 and not yet done 🙂

[tepid prawn]

also lots of H&H foods missing because that wasn't out yet

[regal spoke]

I can't remember with clarity. But yea there is differences. Have to go back to some old videos I guess

[near furnace]

trolls changed 2 times already from the OG model

[regal spoke]

No fur under britches iirc?

[merry pebble]

Wasnt one of the previous iterations brown? Since that model is still spawnable with commands

[tepid prawn]

I've seen some of the alpha videos too that are out there, some stuff before the game was called Valheim too, so fun following the development of my favourite newish game along 🙂

[near furnace]

no. there was 2 troll models

frost trolls and normal trolls

you can see both trolls heads still if you spawn them

[nova verge]

It's a game so that cool building that I didn't even fight the Moder, I love that they let us have unlimited resources with abusing greydwarf spawners

[merry pebble]

Ah, yeah, i saw mentions of the frost one somewhere 🤔 not sure where tho

[near furnace]

the frost trolls use to "live" in the mountain biome, but got replaced

the normal sandy troll was removed

[merry pebble]

By golems i assume

[near furnace]

I would assume the same

I know when Grimmcore joined, the first mobs he did was Moder and the stone golem

[light moat]

Which is why golems are in the same factions as trolls 🤯
||not really lol||

[nova verge]

Hmm, imagine the trolls kingdom...

[tepid prawn]

I still sometimes call the golems mountain trolls, abom is the swamp troll etc 😛

[near furnace]

furry trolls = lox?

[merry pebble]

Well all of those are "troll level" enemies 😄

[tepid prawn]

nah muscle troll = berserker

[nova verge]

Nuh, hmmm, nuh

[tepid prawn]

lox is pet!

[merry pebble]

Those are "brutes" 😄

[near furnace]

Lox is Lizard Ox

[nova verge]

Flying furry troll = Moder

[tepid prawn]

not in my world 😛

[regal spoke]

Lox are the real best bois

[nova verge]

Tree + troll = the elder

[tepid prawn]

well... I don't tame them as often because you need to build a pen the size of Australia

thats why wolves are better

[merry pebble]

We have no perms 😄

[nocturne wolf]

We can’t use gifs here, we need to be in the public test channel

[tepid prawn]

wonder what the tame wll be for DN 🙂

[near furnace]

no embed perms for normal users

[tacit crystal]

Asksvins are good.

[shy marlin]

who says there is one

I remember that I could, maybe before the hacker attack, or I am dripping

[tepid prawn]

we have had 5 tames "from" 7 biomes, none in swamp and forest, so I think we'll get one, is of course only speculation

[nova verge]

Yahahahahaha

[regal spoke]

Need at least a 4m gap between lox pen and breakables lol. I still laugh at what seems like intentional stacking for escape

[lunar sapphire]

Rude D:

[near furnace]

no you

[merry pebble]

In some channels you can 🙂 but it is mostly discouraged i believe, since those channels have embeding enabled to help other users or to help with testing

[nocturne wolf]

We won’t need tames if we can summon necks 🤞

[tepid prawn]

you got your neck army already in Ashlands

[signal bloom]

neck swarm yes

[nocturne wolf]

Those are their grandparents, it’s not the same

[tepid prawn]

flamey necks

[nova verge]

Bees are not happy

[tepid prawn]

anyway, actual neck swarm would be bad for performance, I killed Yag first time with 250 2* wolves lol

[merry pebble]

No no no, fireproof necks 😄

[nocturne wolf]

Who said we need 250 of them? I just want them to be the next blood magic summon

[noble axle]

what the hell

[tepid prawn]

whatever floats your ... neck

[nova verge]

Lol

[noble axle]

250 2 star wolves omg

[tepid prawn]

I was a tad scared of the final boss you could say (was pre mistland)

[nocturne wolf]

I think he would’ve been scared of you

[nova verge]

How about blood magic on boost that makes normal wolves temporary blood wolves?

[tiny tiger]

How many wolves died

blood moon wolves

[tepid prawn]

about 80 survived I think

[tiny tiger]

oh wow

[signal bloom]

I've never even seen a 2 star wolf in my 500+ hours..

[nova verge]

How unfortunately

[cosmic igloo]

wtf? u farmed them?

[tepid prawn]

only at night, and they are a bit rare

[tiny tiger]

Same, around 500 hours, don’t go in the mountains at night enough lol

[tepid prawn]

2x breeding towers

[near furnace]

the wolf on yagluth video is on youtube 😄

[tiny tiger]

I’m seen plenty of fenring tho

[hearty niche]

I fought him last week for the first time. It's the most challenging boss fight yet. We got wrecked but eventually prevailed.

[tiny tiger]

Shame they don’t have any good drops

[tepid prawn]

is some rumours that starred wolves can spawn in same area that fenring spawners are in, thats why I mark them

[signal bloom]

I gotta mark my askvin spawners to try and get a 2 star

[tepid prawn]

1 stars are not super hard to find when going out at night

[tiny tiger]

how did you go about taming your first 2 star?

[tepid prawn]

trapped him and fed him meat

[tiny tiger]

Was the trap made during the day?

[hearty niche]

Patience and substances that enhance patience was how I did it.

Many many nights wandering frigid mountains trying not to get eaten by wolves

[tepid prawn]

yeah was pre prepared I think but not 100% sure was a while ago

[hearty niche]

The... 5 times? I've got 2-star wolves I constructed a taming pit at the bottom of a mountain. I led the wolf to the pit with a bridge over it and deconstructed the bridge to trap it in the pit.

[tiny tiger]

I’m gonna need to try this out eventually tbh would be fun having such a strong pet in the mid game

[hearty niche]

The new "brew of animal whispers" helps TONS like I cannot overstate how much it helps. The more people the better.

[tiny tiger]

people? Like it stacks ?

[hearty niche]

Yeah. It divides the taming time by 2^number of players

[tiny tiger]

Oh wow

[hearty niche]

so 1 player with the mead cuts taming time in half, 2 cuts it to 1/4, 3 cuts it to 1/8, 4 cuts it to 1/16

[tiny tiger]

that’s crazy

[trail pelican]

oh shit, that seems unintended

[regal spoke]

Now that I didn't know. Certainly improved the time to tame a starred askvin with two people

[trail pelican]

(giving a major advantage to MP on account of an effect stacking)

[nova verge]

Remember that trick, does they also nerfed trick with the highest point and lowest point hill?

[hearty niche]

Askvins are the best tames IMO since you can carry the eggs anywhere. No messy boat shenanigans required.

[tepid prawn]

Who cares let us have fun if a server with 5 players want to have a fire site chat while speed taming something cute

[trail pelican]

I agree, but we should delete this entire convo thread before a dev sees lest they get ideas otherwise

[tiny tiger]

Plus rideable plus lava proof plus endgame powerful

[tepid prawn]

You can still build drop breeders

[hearty niche]

Are askvins and necks related?

[regal spoke]

Big Neck uncles are awesome

[tiny tiger]

They must be right

The designs seem too similar on purpose

[nova verge]

Breed towers? They got them back?

[hearty niche]

I've built both boar and chicken breeding towers in my last playthrough

[tepid prawn]

We have a boar drop tower on our server rn

[nova verge]

Remember that we couldn't breed on the floor

[regal spoke]

Still haven't made a breeding tower

[tepid prawn]

Solo it’s not required but for multiple people it helps

[nova verge]

Yeah, 2 years passed by, what would I expect

[regal spoke]

I can see that Leng

Started a fresh playthrough last night. We got lucky and found 1* boar just a short walk from spawn. At a runestone ofc

[cosmic igloo]

breed towers damn why does that sound so interesting

[regal spoke]

They do really help with production. Babies drop away to allow the breeders to keep producing

[nova verge]

It's old tho

[merry pebble]

I also heard some designs for them no longer work

[nova verge]

Boars can be the only breed if there are less than 5 boars like in 25 meters(as I remember), so u can go away with this limitation if u can place them high above that new boar will drop down, and be without reach of that radius

[hearty niche]

and squeeeeeeeal followed by a piggie dropping from the sky never gets old lol

[nova verge]

There was an update that removed breeding on the floors, and all breedable mobs could only be bred on the ground, but idk about now

[cosmic igloo]

ah thats rly smart

[nova verge]

Btw, did they add horses?

[hearty niche]

you can ride lox

[merry pebble]

Nope

[hearty niche]

I still insist plural lox is loxen but whateve

[nova verge]

It's not the same

[trail pelican]

if that was something they did, they must've rolled it back--or, it never applied to chickens--cuz I definitely have egg farms that work on the current update

[hearty niche]

I have 4 hens and it's almost a little too effective. I had to make a mouse button macro that spammed the E button to easily pick up the eggs.

[nova verge]

Did u hear of unlimited wood/stone trick?
