[shy marlin]

was fun to have a "d day" experience

[long peak]

how many hours do you have in this game i only have 1300

[shy marlin]

now it's just, haha cool 3 archers/warrios and maybe 2 twitchers

[long peak]

ahahahahhaa thats one of the most true things

[shy marlin]

3.1k

[long peak]

Wow

[shy marlin]

that's nothing compared to some other regulars here

[prime moth]

my furthest hardcore run so far.... i got yeeted off a hill by a golem :kekw

[long peak]

i come to mistlands

and one tapped by a frost wizard

i have no idea how i made him made

he litteraly ended my whole carrer

[rain flare]

2 hours of game time later…

[long peak]

btw i think dverger mages need nerf

[rain flare]

Me sitting on a rock for all that time before I got a space to build

[long peak]

in hard mode mages still 2 hitting me with yagluth and bonemass on

[rain flare]

Nah.

[shy marlin]

this is just a symptom have valheim having pretty bad difficulty settings

game just turns into no hit rather than adding new mechanics and attacks to deal with that make it a fun type of difficult

[long peak]

i dont wana cheese my game but i am on the edge of cart cheese method

[long peak]

maybe i should change the settings in mountain mistland and ashland

other biomes pretty okey

[prime moth]

im never gonna increase difficulty, im sure ill die a good number of times anyway lmao

[long peak]

i wish there was 1.25 option

valheim normal difficulty balanced perfectly

lets say nearly

:d just lets dont make anyone mad

[tacit crystal]

How big witch is?

[long peak]

İ litteraly find ridiculous the people who makes the difficulty setting on 2.0 and only using bow

how do they even having fun

[long peak]

.

maybe this man knows the answer

[empty coyote]

What is the best way to find oak trees to get acorns?

[light moat]

I always just stroll though the meadows, collect berries while looking for oak

[long peak]

anyway day 2 asking justice for Battleaxes

[tacit crystal]

Or 7th time in last few hours.

We will see if the combat update will adress to them too.

[quasi latch]

Run around, find tree, murder tree, repeat

[shy marlin]

Combat update should address so many things I really hope it's not a small update

[light moat]

I’m really happy the #JusticeForBattleaxes is taking off!

[long peak]

be Ready for 8th

[tacit crystal]

All smaller updates have been quite huge so far IMO.

[long peak]

For a Viking themed game axes are ridiculously weak from their alternatives

[shy marlin]

Yea for sure, I just hope it gets the love it deserves/needs

Would absolutely hate to see another "we ran out of time" scenario with a combat update

[long peak]

:/

Btw any new weapon class idea for the game ?

İ think Weapons are enough but would not say no to more

Btw i had a old idea that what if axes hit Blunt and slah like knifes hits Slash and Pierce

it would make them more interesting

[tacit crystal]

Quarterstaves would be fun blunt dealing polearms, but not very viking vibe on them.

[long peak]

yeah looks like would not so uhmm

i dont know the word

compatible ?

but still wouldnt say no to alternatives but maybe other oklayers might not like it

[long peak]

what do you guys say about this

my main worry is it could mess up my Abomination Fights

unfortunatly i only use axes in abomination fight other than ashlands

oh maybe battleaxes only ?

what if they give them equal slash damages to their axe variants and a bit more blunt

[tacit crystal]

Hmm, interesting idea. Would give them bit of their own speciality.

[long peak]

yeah maybe they movement speed penalty to %10 and make this

[tacit crystal]

Maybe for battleaxes since you use the poke with the head of the blade.

[long peak]

i think they need damage buff too or attack speed

[long peak]

Swords with slash damage on their secondary ahahahha

and atgeirs with pierce with their secondary ahahahhahaha

[tacit crystal]

They have higher stagger multiplier tho and no MTP.

[long peak]

but it dose not catch up for example if you have a decent sword level and a silver sword

you can already stagger fuelings with one shot ?

or wolfes

litteraly have no meaning

[tacit crystal]

Bigger targets are easier to keep staggered, like Abominations or Berserkers.

[long peak]

i think a damage buff or a speed buff is have to

[long peak]

yeah

but how often do you and you can easly put them in stagger with parry

but you are right 1 handed weapons not good at keeping bigger enemies saggered

But still i wana butcher some fuelings with crystal battleaxe like younglings

btw 4 level silver sword 93 slash 45 spirit

[tacit crystal]

I know.

[long peak]

4 level Crystal Battleaxe 108 Slash 30 Spirit

15 damage is alot but i cant see it as effective as i hope

Probably due to Movement speed penalty

what about 80 slash 20 Blunt 10 Frost 20 spirit 😄

İs it too much :DDDDD

its should not be less than 70 slash

btw it would be so funny if Crystal battleaxe chop down trees with 1 hit

[rain flare]

The crystal axe is very good and entirely viable in Ashlands
You just need to know how to use great axes

secondary mobs that are too close to you - big swings for groups

In Ashlands it’s more about positioning and focusing on that secondary to give yourself room

Plus you can stagger every unstarred mob besides the morgen or valkarie

[long peak]

maybe like 1 level 75 slash 10 blunt 20 spirit and
2 level 78 Slash 12 blunt 20 spirits and
3 level 80 slash 15 blunt 5 frost 20 spirit
4 level 80 Slash 20 Blunt 10 Frost 20 spirit it would be a godly tier weaopn :d

[long peak]

i didnt use it much in ashlands

but i am totaly sure about even if its viable its so much less viable then other things

like one of the main things of Battleaxes is killing Abominations and swords doing that better if you ask me

[rain flare]

True. But the main point of great axes is fighting groups of mobs

Try clearing a close quarters dungeon like a sealed tower with one

Easier to hit multiple mobs at once and get great results

[long peak]

yeah used it in sealed tower

but its a sealed tower

i think even sledges are better for fighting groups

[rain flare]

Sledges are slower

And don’t have a secondary that lets you hit single targets

And the great axe secondary is one of the fastest attacks in the game

[long peak]

if you ask me only thing Battleaxes viable is killing single big creatures

in any other situation there is a alternative

[rain flare]

That is normal though

If you are forced into a single weapon choice that is bad game design - especially if you have to use the weapon to level up

[long peak]

u can use most of the weapons only easly with a bow extra

[rain flare]

Oh, you liked sword?
Sorry, that weapon is useless now.
Make something else

All weapons are viable in some capacity - of course, some are fundamentally better against certain enemies, but all of them can be used with an understanding of how you should be using that particular weapon

Spears?
Throw them at your enemies just as they get close to you to stagger em and do more damage on a follow up once you collect it

As an example

[long peak]

swords are in good situation in early godly in late
Clubs are in good condition in late godly ib early
Spear if ask me godly in early ver bad at end
Atgeirs viable everywhere except ashlands and if you ask me even their
Knifes only down sides are Ashlands
Sledges you can even abuse mini bosses
2 handed swords needs buff

for example two handed sword are only better than other weapon types in bosses if you ask me

i think an avarage player would have more crowd control with a knife than battleaxes

[rain flare]

I use a two handed sword in Ashlands
Can oneshot most mobs and two shot warriors

Morgens or Valkyries are more time consuming to kill

[rain flare]

Agree to disagree 😂

[long peak]

SSOOOOOOO

They are lower than mid at everything

even a black metal knife can sometimes stagger fuelings with one hit

İ just saw a Clip of a someone calls black metal tower shield Black Metal Door LMAOO

yeah litteraly Black Metal Knife can stagger fuelings with one hit

[next pasture]

still a better door than anything else pre plains tbh
doors need a facelift

[long peak]

https://youtu.be/OpF8HtNxVzM?feature=shared 9.35

[long peak]

ahahahahah

its just sad i want a god damn godly battleaxe so i can abuse it

[long peak]

JOİN US JOİN THE WAY OF THE BATTLEAXE BUFF

[merry pebble]

Plese, there is no need to shout 😄
-# And atgeirs stay the best crowd control tool 😉

[long peak]

yeah :/

My Dream İnventory is litteraly Frostner/Carapace Buckler/Crystal Battleaxe/Draugers Fang or New Green Bow /Himminafl

i think there is no enemies that problematic with these

İF THEY BUFF THE GOD DAMN BATTLEAXES

MİGHTY ODİN HEAR MY VOİCE

[merry pebble]

Cmon...

[long peak]

i am just hyped

feeling like a excited little kid about idea of buffed Battleaxes

[merry pebble]

We do not have even the slightest clue if there will be anything done with them tho 😅

[long peak]

i am litteraly begging for devs here i hope Smiffe the who hears us will inform the other gods

its a funny activity you know even if they not buff it ever

Still Laughing at the Black Metal Door Lmao

[near furnace]

many things will be kept hidden and for players to discover on launch

[long peak]

oh come on :/

[near furnace]

most people don't want spoilers

[long peak]

yeah you are right

Oh smiffe

are you still there

[stark onyx]

i need help please i bought a server through nitrado and i cant join it and my friends cant eaither and its not showing up can i have some help please

[pliant hatch]

You might want to ask around in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736

[charred otter]

Now that I can make a few better plains food, isn't the feast bad cuz it has a lower amount? I feast gives 45 45 aka 90, and the other foods give 99, 100 and 106, so I am losing at least 9 extra hp/stamina, feasts do last longer and cost less to craft, in which case it'd be more off a "passive" food but for bosses/next biome I don't see why I would use that

[long peak]

yeah other foods could have more points but those points are going to decreas rapidly

[nocturne wolf]

Normal food lasts long enough for a whole day

[merry pebble]

Oh for sure feel free to just use them as base food or exploration food 🙂

[nocturne wolf]

Feasts are also good if you want a stat ratio that requires the perfectly split stats

[charred otter]

Does decreasing only start once it's halfway thru (aka when u can refill it)? if so then for critical fights it'd still be better

[nocturne wolf]

The stats decrease constantly but it's not a linear curve. At 10% duration the food still has 50% of it's stats.

[charred otter]

Is there a formula

I want to do the math to see if I lose more or less than 9 points before halfway thru the food in which case it'll be worth it for anything longer than a few mins after just eating

[merry pebble]

Sev has done a spreadsheet for it 🙂 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b_obmQ_F5u5p-2K0NvFNzL2aHWLauisve63lvOsoD54/edit?gid=1529563283#gid=1529563283

[heady parcel]

To me it's a convenience thing, depends on what I'm doing. Feasts are awesome to use when building, farming or whatever in base or if exploring. When I go out expecting a hard fight (i.e. walking outside the door in Ashlands) I eat normal foods to get the most bang and refresh them as soon as possible.

[long peak]

funny enough u can be fully tank have lots of stamina and use magic if you use 2 feasts of last 2 biomes and a health food

[heady parcel]

Yeah the last feasts are good

[charred otter]

Wait mountain stew doesn't decay that's nice, so I guess it's better for anything more than 4m (aka most things) cuz Lox pie goes from 99 to 72 in 4m

[merry pebble]

I would be careful with the word "lots" 😄

[long peak]

why ? :d

[long peak]

whyyyyy ?

[merry pebble]

Since that gives you basically the same stamina as normal HHS spread, which is not exactly the most stamina 🙂

[long peak]

btw i got a mute ban for 10 minutes 3 times today for accidentaly pressing wrong key that not in english alphabet

any idea how to solve this its like minesweeper

[long peak]

in valheim Maximum stamina is increasing but regen is not i dont find reliable using maximum

controling you stamina is not so hard if you are not wet

[merry pebble]

I know 😉 i still much prefer SSH since if you are able to dodge and move you dont really need much hp

[long peak]

1 stamina food is literaly enough when you have 2 more foods

i never felt a lack of stamina

i usualy parry or dodge roll a lot

[merry pebble]

I am not saying you lack it 🙂 just that its not "lots¨"

[long peak]

yeah

but btw only time i feel lack of stamina is catching a dirty 5 level fish

its just never enough

İ wonder how much difference would have make 100 level fishing skill

[heady parcel]

Feels like if any lvl 3 or above fish so much as looks at me sideways the stamina bar disintegrates from 200 to zero in a heartbeat

Fishing is best done by beach scavenging after a storm

My first ever base I built on stilts on the shore, after every storm I'd have 2-3 fish lying on the floor, they were thrown in through the window

[nocturne wolf]

When possible, jumping is better than rolling

[long peak]

some times i jump

yeah but dodge roll have invinciblity frames more trusteable

İ wish they add a Stamina Regen Multiplayer to Stamina Foods like health foods

[heady parcel]

Gods, Ashlands has increased my mead consumption by 500% or so. One stack of health meads would last me weeks before this, now I have to put another batch in the fermenter every night...

[long peak]

That would be so interesting for knife

[long peak]

ahahahahaha

[thorn mirage]

https://tenor.com/view/hop-on-valheim-valheim-hop-on-hop-on-gif-8609550983698195810

[heady parcel]

And that's not mentioning ratatosk etc

[long peak]

especialy using knife u can jump dodge a fueling attack and hit him with secondary immediatly

[nocturne wolf]

You can do that with any weapon

[long peak]

a insta kill combo

[long peak]

yeah i have discovered that method while trying to battlaxes wprk

[nocturne wolf]

You can start any attack while in the air, where you're safe from enemies and won't be slowed by your attack's movespeed multiplier

It's useful for hitting enemies that are otherwise just out of reach, because of the increased speed

[long peak]

Using that soo much with sledges too

Btw when you think about it it would have been interesting if the Ashlands Heavy Armors Chestplate had Blunt Resistance

[nocturne wolf]

That would be far too strong

[long peak]

Rootharnesk is far too strong and i like it

and there is not so much blut enemies as i know

especaily in ashlands

[merry pebble]

Abomination, Asksvin, Boar, Bonemass, Fuling (Club), Fuling (Torch), Fuling Berserker, Fuling shaman, Gjall, Greydwarf, Growth, Lox, Root, Seeker, Seeker Soldier, Surtling, Stone Golem, The Elder, Troll, Yagluth, Zil & Thungr

[heady parcel]

The 2H swords are pretty niche weapons tbh, but gods the animations, I love them. It feels heavy and hard hitting. Too bad it actually ends up being pretty underwhelming.

[nocturne wolf]

The stamina cost is so high

[long peak]

at this point of the game only askvins maybe seeker soliders and zill and thungr

could make problem

[heady parcel]

That, plus all tougher mobs being resistant to the damage makes them pretty meh, which is a damn shame

[merry pebble]

• we dont know what comes in DN

[long peak]

and to be honest Seeker soliders when you have a buckler is a joke

[frank peak]

pov when you build a whole village in game hoping your childhood friend would play with you last year, who never did so now you just have half a village as a base

[long peak]

and btw i didnt meant %50 resistances to blunt like root harnesks %50 to pierce i think %25

[long peak]

:/

[frank peak]

i have a whole blacksmiths building, watchtower and gate for a wall around the village, a dock, my own house and was gonna make him a house inside the borders for him to leanr the game

[long peak]

when you think about it if you are not higher diffuclity only asksvins and ||Meteors ||of Fader is a threat at that point of the game

[long peak]

i lived the same fate all my friends quite after swamp

[nocturne wolf]

25% resistances don't exist. Damage modifiers in valheim have to be 2x, 1.5x, 1x, 0.5x, 0.25x or 0x

No idea why it was made that way

[frank peak]

i was gonna build a dark wizard tower for the magic crafting and that woulda finished off the village but now i jast have half a village

[long peak]

So they can add i guess ?

Maybe a set bonus

[merry pebble]

I wouldnt really mind putting "slightly resistant" into the game 🙂 imo it could be used for the harnesk too so its not THAT overpowered

[long peak]

Thats Could be interesting too

[frank peak]

that being said does anyone wanna visit my half a village?

[long peak]

Heeeeeyy nooooooo

[heady parcel]

Anything that moves is a threat when you have ten thumbs and reactions of a fattening 52-year-old.

[delicate bronze]

hey guys, brand new to the game. can i make it so i dont loose stamina so quickly and dont need to eat/drink often? just wanna play around with the game now in the beginning.

[long peak]

İ would recomend Honey if you at the start try to find behives in wild

[heady parcel]

Honestly, in the beginning is the time you really shouldn't be messing with settings. Starting out in the Meadows is not very demanding at all, you should be able to play around without "cheating".

I am old, slow, have shitty finger coordination and slow reactions, yet I have made it to Ashlands without lowering difficulty

[long peak]

İ would Recomend 1 meat of anykind and 1 honey and a mushroom or berry until getting to dark forest

[delicate bronze]

aight, i'll give it a go. ^^
i heard there's a lot of ppl that say "dont play valheim with these mods" etc., so i thought maybe there was something i "needed" to mod or something before i even consider jumping into this.

[long peak]

İts normal Valheim is a punishing game

[delicate bronze]

ye just died in the dark forest. xD apparently thats not a place for bare hands. haha

[merry pebble]

There is never any need for mods in this game 🙂

[long peak]

Personaly i used 2 health food 1 Stamina in all my Valheim Journey

[heady parcel]

Nah, when the bird tells you the place is dangerous for you, he's being serious!

[long peak]

maybe a mass farming mode after 700 hours of solo play just saying

[long peak]

for now you can eat Deer meat Boar Meat and a Honey to maximum security

[delicate bronze]

ye still needa figure out how to make a fire though, hah. seems like i dont eat raw meat

[heady parcel]

Valheim requires 0 mods. But to each their own, but out of all games I've played, this is the one I have never even considered using mods for.

[delicate bronze]

ok thats good to hear, i dont rly like modding to much either anyways

[long peak]

İ have downloaded my first mod after 700 hours it was a farming mod

I just Do not have Free times as much as i do now

and planting god damn onions and barleys is boring after a while

[heady parcel]

Yeah I understand how that would be nice for some, but I don't mind the slow-planting, it's kinda meditative and I am in no rush anyway.

Barleys are annoying in that it is so easy to get them too close to each other. I don't have that problem with any other crop, but for some reason barley I keep getting wrong.

[long peak]

Dont know i hate planting at this point

[willow summit]

the spacing that works for me is to move side to side and click as fast as i can

keep the cursor center screen to make the row

the inherent spacing created by your movement is enough for everything to grow as long as you don't get it too close to some sort of obstacle

[long peak]

Still auto planting mods saves lots of times

[willow summit]

ah, i don't play with mods, prefer the vanilla game

[long peak]

but farming is part of the game to be honest

when my last hours of vanilla valheim comed i used world modifiers just fr less planting its just massed up the all loots values and i said enogh planting

[heady parcel]

I'm just too clumsy with controls for that to work, I get the angle wrong and either veer into the last row I planted or away from the line and waste space

[long peak]

Farming Realy a man of my talents ?

[willow summit]

it's a peaceful life

[long peak]

İ rather die in a battle like a viking

[long peak]

😄

[heady parcel]

The farm is a battlefield whenever the squitos swoop in or the Bros come for another try at revenge

[long peak]

aahahhahahah

To be honest i am scared of Deathsquitos to wear farming clothes even after 1300 hours

They Could One Shoot me

[heady parcel]

It's the one reason I never even bought those clothes

[long peak]

i am Eating 2 Health Foods ahahahhahaha Just For disqeuping my root harnesk

safely

i Guess they added new bog witch sting potion for this but anyway

[heady parcel]

Bloody hell can blobs destroy earth walls???!?

[long peak]

no but poison behind walls

İ am Scared That at one point random Blobs Gona kill my 2 star boars i dont even use them its just a colletive

[heady parcel]

Nah the last one that exploded next to my base blew a hole through the askvsin pen

shoot

[tacit crystal]

They are currently only mobs that "damage" terrain, so earth walls are not 100% guarantee against them.

[long peak]

oh you mean ashlands blobs

yeah they can break the earth wall

[heady parcel]

Bloody hell

[long peak]

u can take the ||askvins|| ||egg|| and teleport it to safer biome

[heady parcel]

Done that, but I need a few of them here ||to use as mounts too||

[long peak]

or are you raising a army in aslands

[tacit crystal]

Not a reliable army since they don't listen to any commands.

[long peak]

hah when you have 300 of them u dont need to command them :d

[heady parcel]

Good thing I have enormous stockpiles of stone from all my road constructions. Digging through hills does yield some stone

[long peak]

Somebody mined copper i guess

[heady parcel]

That too but it's been a long time, that stone went into paving the roads 😄

[long peak]

ahahaha

[charred otter]

What's the mistlands look like and how far does it start spawning? I want to build my plains base somewhere close to the mistlands so I won't have to build another one in the mistlands, although having a base near mistlands might be a bad idea

I could always just setp a camp with a portal but eh

Also for plains base, anything I should take into consideration like having water near it for fishing and maybe tar for easy building farming?

[jaunty turtle]

A ring between 2/4 and 3/4 radius of the map or something

[charred otter]

My current base is 1 decently large building and I am thinking to go for either a village or if I want faster accessibility maybe a multiple-level building so I don't have to walk too much

[long peak]

its a bad idea dont

[charred otter]

Do u know the meters range of that? I prefer that cuz then I can do math

[charred otter]

Ok, curious why tho

[long peak]

There is special Raid event for mistlands

a problematic one

that can destroy your structures

for example you are at plains but you are close enough to render mistlands you are probably under risk

[jaunty turtle]

No idea. What I’ve learned is 0-1/4 contains Meadows, 1/4-2/4 got Plains, 2/4-3/4 got Mist and the outer edge 3/4-4/4 got mostly Black Forest.

The map looks like an eye

[long peak]

EYE OF SAURON

[jaunty turtle]

lol

[charred otter]

So do I just go for any plains

[long peak]

yeah

i usualy prefer a plains or Black forest İsland with have a cross island that have mistland on it

[jaunty turtle]

I think mist got some plants that only grow there, everything else can grow in plains so you could make a border farm if you want and find an island with both mist and plains on it

[long peak]

Everybody gangsta until a Deathsquito Pops up from mist

[charred otter]

So I should still try and find a plains near mistlands

[vague flare]

Yo im new to game i have like 2 ppl with me and we starting a new crew if u want to join us dm me

[charred otter]

#1024264966712340510

[long peak]

But not close enough to render mistlands mobs spawns

[vague flare]

sorry new to server too

[charred otter]

Yeye alr

[long peak]

i hope you dont learn the hard way

[jaunty turtle]

Personally I would build my base in the place that feel comfiest, then some small outposts for biome/location specific stuff

[charred otter]

I haven't even defeated yagluth

[long peak]

İ learned hard way of the Consequences Making a Mistlands base

[jaunty turtle]

Did you have the jellyfish vomit all over your base or something?

[heady parcel]

My base "progress" is usually Build basic hut - run around start island and find a pretty spot - build good first base - expand on that base - establish outposts and fob:s where needed

[long peak]

yeah litteraly

[long peak]

Jellyfish wasnt mercyfull

and it was my second encounter with him

[heady parcel]

The jellyfish is not known for mercy

But I like to call them "Honkers"

[charred otter]

British spotted

[jaunty turtle]

I was lucky my current playthrough to find an old Black Forest tower ruin at the coast right outside a Black Forest, made it my forge base

[long peak]

ahahahahahahah

btw if you can found a one

a Mountain Biome can be spawn around word borders

with a height of a plain or Black Forest Biome

Litteraly like Deep north vibes

[heady parcel]

Yeah I have found a few places where the mountain goes all the way down to sea level, usually where a river cuts through an island

[long peak]

but the one i found was like a normal biome with Snow

it was very flat

[heady parcel]

That is cool, never seen that. Except in the actual deep north of course, but only poked into a tiny spot there, don't wanna have to change world once it comes for reals

[next pasture]

went to drop off moders trophy on the stones
the elder decided to tell me that he shoulda killed me when he had the chance
they talk?

do they all speak or just the elder specifically?

[long peak]

yeah they talk

even fishes talk

[heady parcel]

For non stop entertainment, kill the bosses another time for the trophy and put them on display around your base

[long peak]

if you mount them on the wall

[next pasture]

they talk on sacrificial stones too

[long peak]

yeah

[next pasture]

im sticking around for a while to see if anyone else pipes up

[heady parcel]

yeah but you don't spend much time there tbh

[long peak]

boss trophy's can talk when they are just on the ground as i remember i have seen bonemass talk to me as i remember

[heady parcel]

Only bosses I've bothered to get my own trophies for are Eik and Moder, the others aren't that pretty to have around your house

[long peak]

yeah unfortunatly

omg even bosses having body shaming :d

[heady parcel]

Bonemass trophy look like a giant blob of snot, something you caughed up from the flu

[long peak]

Bonemass Didn't like what you said

[pliant hatch]

Makes sense, considering you get sick of all the poison he spits at you.

[long peak]

better equip your old trusty frostner

[heady parcel]

Truth!

[keen pendant]

The Queen just looks like a massive slug

[long peak]

She is a massive Slug

[keen pendant]

Oh

[long peak]

no not directly a slug

but its a bug :d i hate bugs

killing Seekers are so satisfying for me i hate Pests

[keen pendant]

Valheim devs gotta collab with helldivers and make the Queen a bug you can fight

[long peak]

imma play hollow knight one day

[long peak]

Would be interesting

[keen pendant]

Don't get me wrong, I think you should go to the hospital if your snot has bones, a face, and skulls in it

[long peak]

ahahahahahahaha

btw a little valheim clip not by me but a funny one

https://youtu.be/I35rQeFozuw?feature=shared

[keen pendant]

You should post that in #memes-and-clips

[long peak]

oh

[heady parcel]

Aright - crafting procs when crafting stacks should be made a little more rewarding I think. Getting ONE measly extra arrow after crafting four full stacks of frost arrows feels more than a little pointless. Make crafting procs when crafting stacks give like 1/4 of the stack size or something like that, would be fair I think.

Either that or allow me to craft one arrow at a time to have a chance for a greater yield.. (I know that wouldn't work with the mats...)

[cedar sparrow]

If you use CTRL-F3, you can hide the GUI so the screenshot doesn't show any evidence of your inventory mod

[vapid hearth]

Ouch, just learned that the scythe doesn't work on jotun puffs or magecap mushrooms

[undone forum]

Interesting

[vocal rivet]

I'm not sure why it would.

[nocturne wolf]

Why shouldn't it?

[gray sand]

Shrooms too short 😉

[willow summit]

You should be able to sit down and scoot while you scythe

#ScootScythe

[vocal rivet]

🤣

[light moat]

But carrots and onions aren’t? 🤔

[gray sand]

No, because you can scoot those out 😉

[light moat]

With a scythe? 😅 and if so, you couldn’t scoot out shrooms?

[shy marlin]

Nothing better than watching a streamer with a shit ton of mods who reaches a 90% damage reduction build only to complain that the game is too easy

Absolute cinema

[ebon zenith]

So does the bird not tell me where to go next after killing Bonemass?

[nimble moss]

if you are not sure: ||you got a recipe for a frost potion||

[ebon zenith]

i was just wondering since he was telling me about everything else haha, but i don't mind googling

[nimble moss]

actually wait - I was wrong

he doesnt unlock that does he - you get that anyway from swamp

if you want the answer it is ||head to the mountains||

[tacit crystal]

You can always visit sacrificial stones and examine the next boss stone to get a hint where to go next.

[near furnace]

no. it stops handholding you after the elder more or less

[ebon zenith]

gotcha thanks

[empty coyote]

if i was in my base afk and came back dead but there was no damage around me what do yall think happened

[near furnace]

depends on what killed you 😄

[empty coyote]

[near furnace]

you can always look in the player.log file

[empty coyote]

oh wow a dev

[near furnace]

but probably a monster

[empty coyote]

i like your game and just started playing not that long ago

[near furnace]

I am the most active member on the discord tho

[empty coyote]

dang thats fire

a dev who actually participates in the community

[near furnace]

can't be that uncommon tho?

[nimble moss]

greydrawves have a habit of wandering in peoples bases passive, they could have killed you, then left

[vocal rivet]

I wouldn't have thought so. Certainly in the indie world.

[sly quail]

Does anyone know where I can find the recipes for Adventure Backpacks mod?

[near furnace]

--> #mods-issues or #mods-discussion

[nimble moss]

have you seen the reddit video of one wandering in then out like in the simpsons? let me try to find it - its hilarious - was a few years ago

[vocal rivet]

Reddit? No.

[nimble moss]

🙂

[near furnace]

what is this red IT you're refearing to?

[nimble moss]

the mechanic is they are passive around the fire, but if they walk closer to you and the fire mechanic is no longer in range, they attack, then the fire drives them away again as they walk around

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/it-crowd-hello-it-have-you-tried-turning-it-off-and-on-again-gif-8607749

only IT that I know about

[nimble moss]

that is 80% of it though

source; used to work in IT support briefly many years ago

[near furnace]

yes

[vocal rivet]

What mechanic? I'm lost.

[near furnace]

or click "update" and don't think about it to much 😄

[nimble moss]

ooooooh sorry - ignore me - I'm confused and responding incorrectly. Carry on

[charred gale]

just dealt with the last boss so far 💪

[vocal rivet]

Easily done.

[nimble moss]

hehe

[nimble moss]

I've done that on some production servers in my earlier years

#yolo

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-who-dalek-emotional-twirling-gif-8602739

[charred gale]

do we know anything about the 1.0 release date (or public test) yet

[nimble moss]

no - only what is in #news - and that a combat update is coming first - which includes new armor because some people were confused by that

[charred gale]

thanks ill check that out

i hope the combat update comes before i have to go serve in the military 😭

[nimble moss]

if your relying on the combat update to help with your miltary service training - I would suggest otherwise

(sorry - had to be said)

the reality is no one knows any dates apart from @near furnace who isnt telling

[charred gale]

how else am i gonna be able to fight an enemy who's standing on ground half a foot higher than me

[near furnace]

only that we are going to tell everyone VERY publicly when

[nimble moss]

just crouch and you become invisible

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/archer-krieger-smoke-bomb-get-away-run-disappear-gif-9640060

[nimble moss]

...is it too rude of me to say was this the design of the ashland smokebomb - since it has the same effect? 🙂

(honestly no offence - but you gotta admit it fits and is slightly funny)...

I think I remember you saying that was the actual original intention of the smoke bomb, but technical limiations prevented it, and now it only reverts to putting out fires?

[near furnace]

gee. I wonder who wanted that feature? 🤔

[charred gale]

i made those in an attempt to suffocate my friend in my house

[nimble moss]

honeslty would have legit been awesome and cool - its unfortunate it didnt work out

actually would have made ashlands more balanced in the early 100+ mob design too - since there would have been a legit counter to it

[nimble moss]

did it work? 🙂

[charred gale]

i cant remember

[nimble moss]

so yes, but you dont want to admit to murder on the discord - got it

[near furnace]

we'll see if we can make it work

It's one of many ideas I had that was added

[charred gale]

im really excited about 1.0

[nimble moss]

im going to spread a rumor its part of the combat update, and if its not, then scales would like a word...

[near furnace]

god no please noooo

[nimble moss]

then you shouldnt have said it was part of the combat update

(hehe - joking of course in case people read this one line of text and post it on IGN or something)

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/bonk-doge-gif-24837098

[charred gale]

i love the ashlands music

whoever composed it, you have my respect

[nimble moss]

honeslty the sound track to Valhiem overall is simply amazing. I cant remember the composers name (I'm sure someone will post it) - but its just magicval

"The Valheim original soundtrack was written by Patrik Jarlestam[1], a Swedish/Australian composer" https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Soundtrack

[near furnace]

we are really proud of our music design

[nimble moss]

He even did an AMA on reddit years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/m6ylmg/ama_i_am_patrik_jarlestam_composer_for_valheim/

[near furnace]

one of them 🙂

ghostwood empire is the others

[nimble moss]

its funny - but in my opinion its kinda one of the cornerstone successes of the game... most games I would play with music off, or not think about it. In this game, the music is part of the experience in a way that I've rarely experienced... its such an iconic part of it...

[near furnace]

I think it shows in the OST

[shy marlin]

hmm?

[near furnace]

don't take him serious 😓

I would have removed it, if it wasn't for the ping

[shy marlin]

word

I do just wanna add that while I may seem super critical it's only out of passion for the game

I wouldn't be here if I didn't love the game

[nimble moss]

I think its the passion of both the dev's and the players that makes valheim great... just look at AAA studio devoid of the love... you can tell games made with love

[charred gale]

At first i was soooo annoyed with ashlands but after some time of adjusting i think its ||still super annoying||

[near furnace]

valheim wouldn't have taken off without the help of the players spreading the word

[charred gale]

But hey its meant to be difficult so

Also my first interaction was screwed up because for some reason the first ashlands i found was a completely flat and barren wasteland which had probably twice as much enemy spawns than in the normal biome

[near furnace]

pre-ashlands release ashlands?

[charred gale]

I think so

[near furnace]

if it was green and filled with surtlings. it's the pre-version

[charred gale]

Then it was something else

Dont get me wrong i did find that surtling island too way before

I think i mightve previously sailed across that area, while it was just an ocean so the generation got messed up or something

Cause if im not mistaken after the release of the ashlands the pre version area turned into ocean entirely

I wonder whats gonna happen to my cabin in the current deep north when 1.0 strolls along 😢

[nocturne wolf]

All of the terrain will change so the cabin could be floating or buried

[charred gale]

It was nice while it lasted

[near furnace]

same thing that happend to ashlands buildings most likly

[tacit crystal]

Mornings. Do you start in Summer?

[charred gale]

Yup, july 7

[near furnace]

cool

[charred gale]

Im honestly looking forward to it cause i feel like i’ll learn a lot of stuff

[near furnace]

army stuff

nice

don't you get breaks in the army tho? @charred gale

[charred gale]

yes of course

[tacit crystal]

Most weekends are usually freetime.

[near furnace]

just the potential traveltime that sucks, right?

[charred gale]

But i think i’ll be spending most of my free time with the missus so valheim might have to wait a bit longer

[tacit crystal]

Plus additional vacation days depending the service time.

[charred gale]

Well yeah it’ll take some hours

Around three I guess

[near furnace]

finnish army?

[charred gale]

Yes

[near furnace]

nice nice

[tacit crystal]

Traveling by train is free though as service man with the pass and suit.

[near furnace]

fellow nordic 🫡

[tacit crystal]

It's 10 years since my service.

Time flies.

[near furnace]

21 since mine 😛

atleast as a conscript

[charred gale]

Yooo i thought it would have to be the bus

To be fair the letter i was given did have a ticket with VR logo on it so

[tacit crystal]

You can go by train or bus.

[charred gale]

Good to know thanks

[near furnace]

any public transportation was free for us

just show your army ID card

[tacit crystal]

Usually there will be arranged bus trips from the barracks to various locations, but those you need to apply to if really needed.

[charred gale]

I did some very minor research just now and found out that the id should be enough, only you cant reserve a seat for yourself so if the train is fully booked you might have to stand around or something

[near furnace]

yea

and also. the army will probably just sort our your normal home and back travels on weekends

our 2 countries are very simular in those 😄

[tacit crystal]

Id/pass and the army suit.

[charred gale]

Of course

[tacit crystal]

You will get the army pass during the first weeks.

[near furnace]

we didn't have to have any army suits or uniforms on tho

just ID was enough

[tacit crystal]

For us it's a mandatory.

[charred gale]

Thanks for letting me know, i tried to look up if i had to get it myself beforehand but the info was very limited

[tacit crystal]

You need to have both army pass and the suit to leave and enter the barracks.

[near furnace]

ah\

we had alot of people going by train, and when they got back home, they went straight for the pubs, bars and dance places 😄

[tacit crystal]

And to use transportation for free.

[tacit crystal]

The usual, yeah.

[charred gale]

I assume the first time you go, all you need is the letter they give you at the call ups? (Palvelukseenastumismääräys)

[tacit crystal]

Correct.

[charred gale]

And likely an id

[tacit crystal]

Very recommendable.

[near furnace]

Palvelukseenastumismääräys means the papers calling you to army service?

[charred gale]

Yes

What a monster of a word

[near furnace]

lol

inkallelseorder in swedish

[tacit crystal]

Usual personal items like hygiene products, wallet, etc. are very useful to have, just don't pack too much clothes.

Own underwear and socks tho can be nice.

[charred gale]

I wanna get one of those casio watches

[near furnace]

hehe

[charred gale]

Yeah i heard the military issued ones arent too great

[near furnace]

we got clocks assigned to us

tho nowdays. I use a G-shock when I do military stuff

[tacit crystal]

They do their job, but it's always more comfy in own.

[charred gale]

I looked into one of those too seemed pretty cool

I wish I never bought that apple watch

[near furnace]

smart watches overall will just break in army duty 😄

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, and sometimes smartphones. I broke one during my service.

[near furnace]

I got a nokia, it survived all my concript duty

[charred gale]

I need to put my otterbox case back in use

Its so hunky you could drive a car over it and it’ll be fine

[near furnace]

buuut. you will get the brand new rifle tho

very cool

[charred gale]

Damn wait

[near furnace]

https://news.cision.com/sako-oy/r/finnish-and-swedish-defence-forces-to-acquire-a-joint-range-of-firearms-from-sako-ltd,c3741387

[charred gale]

Its possible but i wouldnt be too optimistic

[tacit crystal]

Depends on the branch, usually the better ones are reserved to jaegers.

[near furnace]

all of the army will update

[charred gale]

it’ll still probably take years until theyve completely changed them

[tacit crystal]

That's what I thought too.

[near furnace]

unsure when finland started, but over here they are working fast

[charred gale]

But even if it took long i’m sure the rk 62 will be more than suitable

[near furnace]

oh no no no

new gun is made by SAKO

good stuff

[light moat]

This must be part of the Valheim combat update!! 🤯

[near furnace]

no

[tacit crystal]

Oops, did we derail?

[near furnace]

yes

[tacit crystal]

True, this isn't general chat lol.

[near furnace]

and I need to go sleep now

it's 3AM

[charred gale]

No i know i meant that if i wasnt to get the new one in my hands the old one, rk 62, would still probably be suitable

[charred gale]

4 am for me i need to go too

[light moat]

Good night! 🫡

[near furnace]

yeah. nothing wrong with the RK62

but new and lighter gun is better

[tacit crystal]

Shouldn't fall for nap after 6pm, mess up the sleep cycle.

[charred gale]

Yeah lol

[brittle brook]

Hihi

[cobalt vine]

hello

Hi I am looking for server to play with people and minimap

[nimble moss]

hi - check here for people to find #1024264966712340510

[scenic wing]

flails. do extra damage over clubs but with 10% chance of hitting yourself instead.

[long peak]

i am not sure about the hitting your sself part

[scenic wing]

https://tenor.com/view/flail-dog-flail-dog-cute-playing-gif-16571698

[long peak]

Terminator

[rain flare]

That…
Is an aweful idea 😂

[long peak]

İmagine hitting your self with Green Elemental stone middle of the fader fight and rooting your self

[rain flare]

Oh Hel no! 😂

[scenic wing]

that's exactly what makes it so exciting

[hearty hatch]

Guys

Haldor isn't showing Ymir's flesh

i killed Bonemass yet he still isn't selling

[shy marlin]

have you killed elder?

[hearty hatch]

Yes

[shy marlin]

elder is the gate btw, not bonemass, any mods?

[hearty hatch]

I have 1.5 loot modify

[shy marlin]

Not sure then 🤔 it should be available for purchase

[hearty hatch]

Hmm

Yesterday my game glitched and didn't save some progress
I killed the Elder and i have the trophy

but i feel like it didn't save me "Killing" him

[nimble moss]

yeah - that's possible - the trophy isnt the unlock AFAIK - and if the game glitched its possible the progression wasnt saved

You could try and drop the trophy and pick it up again to double check (I cant recall) - otherwise you might just need to summon him again and kill him again.

[hearty hatch]

Welp

Thanks

[tacit crystal]

Maybe kill Elder again and check Haldor after?

[hearty hatch]

Ye i'll do that
ty

[tacit crystal]

Should be easy with iron gear.

[hearty hatch]

actually i crafted a silver sword

should make it more easy

[south grove]

I've been hearing talk that the upcoming Deep North is the final biome (not neccessarily, though possibly the final update). I tried to find a road map but couldn't, so is there any truth to what I have read?

I just got back into the game after a long hiatus. 😄

[hearty hatch]

It's the final biome on the map yes
but i don't think it's final update(hopefully not)

[south grove]

I should say when I said final update, I did mean final EA update. I do hope that upon 1.0 that the game continues to receive updates also.

If it's the final biome, could it be the final EA update?

[tacit crystal]

The Deep North update will be 1.0 but we get smaller update that focus on combat before that.

[hearty hatch]

combat?
what's wrong with it?

[south grove]

Oh that is very exciting! I am hyped for some combat updates, so happy to let them cook.

[tacit crystal]

After 1.0 we get bug fixes and other improvements, and if they will, something more.

[south grove]

Nothing has to be wrong with combat for updates to be made. I think the devs have done a good job of it so far, so if they have more ideas...

[hearty hatch]

yeah

[tacit crystal]

There have been announced at least what are expected are slope fighting fix and teased with a new ||armor set|| and ||weapon||.

[south grove]

Can never say no to more of that!

[tacit crystal]

Maybe some other adjustments with some weapon stats too, but we will see about that later.

[hearty hatch]

oooh yeah the slope thing is kind of annoying

[tacit crystal]

Currently it's bit easier to fight with spears in slopes: it has higher hitbox than other weapons, which means you can hit enemies slightly upwards of you easier than with others and you can throw your spear also upwards and downwards.

[hearty hatch]

the secondary attack of axes too

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, secondary attack of axes hits upwards and secondary attack of maces downwards.

But at least Smiffe (developer) has said the combat has been more fun with the update so that gets me also very interested.

[hearty hatch]

Hope we get a new kind of weapon

like a scythe

[tacit crystal]

||We have that, but as a tool||.

[nimble moss]

i think this was introduced specifically to allow people to chop stumps easier (not 100% sure - but thats my vague memory for some reason - could just be me been wrong as usual)

[hearty hatch]

oh

welp spoilers

[nimble moss]

huh - whats the spoiler of that?

[hearty hatch]

i didn't get to that part of the game yet

[nimble moss]

oh - the scythe

ummm - you already have a silver sword - so very small thing ||it is unlocked in swamps with a specific trader you need to find||

[tacit crystal]

Ah, I have just woken up. Sorry about that.

[tacit crystal]

Also ||after defeating the 4th boss||.

[hearty hatch]

not gonna click those 🙏

[nimble moss]

arh - forgot that

[hearty hatch]

it's ok

[tacit crystal]

I'd personally sway a bit away from reading things in here if I wanted to avoid spoilers.

[opaque belfry]

sigh i never have luck using the lfg thing

maybe i should lock in and make my own dedi….. i’m a little slow concerning computer stuff tho

[hearty hatch]

Man a stonegolem hit me and knocked me off the whole mountain 😭

[loud cliff]

Are there an pubic servers I could join and play on, I want to do a fresh play through but whenever I start I just feel kinda lonely and would like to see other peoples builds in the wild every once and awhile

[scenic wing]

yeah I'm looking forward to hitbox angle fixes like on spear.

[scenic wing]

that's how I died on mountains the first time, got yeeted off a cliff

[tacit crystal]

You can try search in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510

There are no public servers running by the game itself, each world can hold up to 10 players maximum.

[hearty hatch]

Man dying in the mountains is so bad

you run out of freeze resistance potions

[tacit crystal]

If you have enough silver you could craft extra wolf cape for the situations like that.

[hearty hatch]

Knowing myself i'd probably die again lmao

[tacit crystal]

Take some good foods for the run beforehand - 2 stamina 1 hp gives you more stamina to use for getting your items, then running back.

[hearty hatch]

actually that's a good idea

[tacit crystal]

And once you pick your items and the grave breaks you get Corpse run buff which increases your survivability tremendously.

[hearty hatch]

Got them

almost died a again though
golems are no joke

[tacit crystal]

They are parriable with ||banded shield|| at least, and ||iron mace|| is the best weapon against them in your current state.

[hearty hatch]

ah

I made the Frostner

[tacit crystal]

It's great weapon, but not good against Golems since they ||are immune to frost damage||.

[hearty hatch]

ah

[tacit crystal]

Frostner surely shines when ||you go to the next biome(s) after mountains||.

[hearty hatch]

oh the ||plains||

[tacit crystal]

Yeah. And ||even afterwards||.

[hearty hatch]

Nice

[wary bane]

Immune to Spirit damage too

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, like most mobs that are not undead.

[hearty hatch]

Alright it's time to kill the ||mountains'|| boss

I believe it's weak to fire no?

[wooden tapir]

it is

[wary bane]

Frostner is so ridiculously overpowered for the swamp. I wonder if it's is intentionally placed and statted to make going back to the swamp to grind Iron easier once you've moved on.

hit a skelly in the swamps with frostner - weakness to blunt, weakness to spirit, weakness to frost due to being wet..

[tacit crystal]

Skellies resist frost tho, even when being wet. But yeah, silver weapons make it breeze in swamp (being tier higher weapons too).

[wary bane]

They do? I never noticed, doesnt make much difference when they're being one shotted anyway i guess

[tacit crystal]

Yeah they are quite low hp in that state of progression.

[tiny tiger]

Decided to come back to the game for a fresh playthrough after not playing for months and I’ve got such a good start, Eikthyr day 2 and at the end of the fight 4 boars, 2 1 stars come in and I trap them while almost getting mauled to death

[hearty hatch]

OMG dude

[tiny tiger]

And the fact eikthyr altar is literally within like 10-20 metres of spawn and the boar pen not much further away

[hearty hatch]

I just finished the boss with my last arrow

[tiny tiger]

GG

[hearty hatch]

Guys i'm going into the ||plains||now

any tips?

[simple crow]

dont get hit

[hearty hatch]

any other tips?

[merry pebble]

Listen to "bzzzzzzzz" and if you hear it... run... 😄

[nocturne wolf]

Don’t run, they’re faster than you

[hearty hatch]

wait bees are gonna attack me?

[merry pebble]

If you run, even when they try to attack, they will miss 😉

[nocturne wolf]

Just hit them first, they have 10 health

[hearty hatch]

||Mosquitos||??

[merry pebble]

Yep, but the initial run may give you a bit of time to figure out how to do that 😄

[hearty hatch]

hope i don't die

[tiny tiger]

lol

[hearty hatch]

how good is ||wolf jerky||

[nocturne wolf]

If you want split-stat food, feasts are so much better. Jerky is only good as a cheap food to use around your base.

[hearty hatch]

alright ty

[tacit crystal]

Yeah listen to "bzzz" and occasional "heha" noises and try not to fight more than one of some big animals at the same time.

With silver gear they are manageable.

[hearty hatch]

man they hit so hard!!!!

IT'S A DANG BUG

[nocturne wolf]

They have 10 health so you'll hit hard too

[merry pebble]

It has death in its name for a reason 😄

[tacit crystal]

They are literal glass cannons.

[nocturne wolf]

Use a weapon with long reach like a bow or polearm to hit it first more easily, or see if you can block it first

[hearty hatch]

oh i didn't even notice lol

i can just block and hit before they fly away

but they're hard to spot

[tacit crystal]

Much earlier encounter would have been much more fatal.

[hearty hatch]

yeah

[tacit crystal]

There are tons of clips of people encountering them while using black forest tier gear that didn't help against the damage lol.

[hearty hatch]

wish i could just slap it

Ah

Didn't know there's a huge ||ox|| in the ||plains||

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, it is a ||Lox||.

[nocturne wolf]

They can't hear well so you can avoid them easily if you don't want to fight

[hearty hatch]

one saw me while fighting the ||goblins||

[nocturne wolf]

Spears work very well against them

[tacit crystal]

And atgeirs. 🤌

Knives are okay too.

[hearty hatch]

just killed one with arrows

spears and arrows have the same damage types so both work

[tacit crystal]

That's correct.

[hearty hatch]

i just parried a ||deathsquito||

[nocturne wolf]

They don't stagger so if you are strong enough to block them normally that will be better since it costs less stamina

[hearty hatch]

guys i can't smelt metal scrap

[nocturne wolf]

Have you used what Moder dropped?

[hearty hatch]

the tears i think

no i haven't

[tacit crystal]

Look at the building hammer.

[hearty hatch]

ooooh

all this time i thought i had to craft something

[tacit crystal]

Usually it's recommendable to look at what new recipes the boss drop gives when picked.

They give something to progress the next biome.

[hearty hatch]

oh yeah

man i need to grind more iron 😭

[tacit crystal]

And it is good idea to check if you have made all available workbenches and their upgrades.

There is another workstation for making foods which is ||preparation table||.

[hearty hatch]

oh yeah i upgraded everything

i built that before even killing ||bonemass||

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, just mentioned since it can be easily dismissed.

[hearty hatch]

it just helps with fishing

[tacit crystal]

You will get more recipes there once you progress more.

[hearty hatch]

Oh neat

[tacit crystal]

But yeah, iron grind never ends.

[hearty hatch]

wait i even need iron to craft gear in the ||plains||?

[merry pebble]

But not that much 😄

[tacit crystal]

Some, which are ||heavy armor set|| and ||mace weapon||. But they don't require it too much.

[hearty hatch]

yeah i noticed

[merry pebble]

96 iron total for lvl 4 armor 🙂 thats what, like 2 average crypts worth

[tacit crystal]

And the ||mace|| is cheap also, total of 32 iron fully upgraded.

[hearty hatch]

Man i'm gonna continue tomorrow

i've done good progress so far

[tacit crystal]

Sounds like it. 👍

[hearty hatch]

Cya!

[long peak]

thats a common problem

[long peak]

what

[tacit crystal]

What about that?

[long peak]

dont go

[long peak]

quiting game is a better alternative

[merry pebble]

Also quite cheezy 😉

[tacit crystal]

Logging out means you lose rested buff.

[long peak]

agreed

[long peak]

i was just kidding ahhahaha

[long peak]

didint know that skeletons was immune to frost

[tacit crystal]

Not immune but resistant. It means they take 0,5x of that damage type.

But they are weak against blunt so that evens it a bit.

[long peak]

maybe i readed wrong

their health are too low anyway

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, at that state they are only nuisance.

[long peak]

even 1.5 diffuclty they are not much of a threat

[long peak]

agreed

[long peak]

at least when you have troll armor

[tacit crystal]

They absolutely can demolish at the beginning if unprepared or encounter starred ones.

[long peak]

a 2 star skeletona rcher one shooted me

[long peak]

yeah

[long peak]

but i am batman i am always ready

Anyway Day 3 of asking #Justiceforbattleaxes

[long peak]

btw is that being disturbing or just funny

[tacit crystal]

If taken too far that could technically considered as mild spam, depending how moderators see it.

Ofc we can hope the upcoming combat update addresses to that too.

And devs are aware of their state surely.

[long peak]

if i see smiffe again better i should ask him

[tacit crystal]

You could send DM to @dusky pivot too.

[long peak]

dont wana disturb or annoy other users

[long peak]

its not that serius i guess there could be so mouch mail

[tacit crystal]

True, but that is a way to contact moderator team since we are not allowed to ping them by the rules.

Few exceptions maybe, Smiffe has stated he allows pinging him.

[long peak]

I dont wana speacialy ask it just a basic question and i dont thing i get banned for making just 5 days

[long peak]

oh

[near furnace]

yes

[long peak]

The Mighty Loki i ask y-

[near furnace]

even tho I might not reply since I'm not working on weekends

[long peak]

opps

[long peak]

soo is constantly writing same troll thing is considered as spam even its just a 10 times a day max

İ am using my Lawfull protesting rights :d

[near furnace]

yes

[long peak]

so i should not do it

[near furnace]

tho mostly doing that action will make people ignore you more

so that's the normal "punishment".

[long peak]

ahahahahah fair enough

thanks mighty loki

[near furnace]

not sure I would call myself Loki 🤔

[long peak]

hahahaha

[near furnace]

I don't feel very.. mischivious

[nocturne wolf]

Is maybe Loki, or Loki is Smiffe

[near furnace]

Loki is a marvel creation. we call him Loke

because marvel (disney) tried to copywrite a name for a nordic god that is 1000's of years old 😄

[long peak]

ahhahahahahah

[mellow ore]

guys is the game even beatable in very hard mode

[long peak]

i tried in hard couldnt pass ashlands

technicaly i could have

but i have to study my lessons

i just died and said enough i dont have time for this for now

[mellow ore]

well has anyone completed it in very hard?

[tepid prawn]

hard is very beatable up to Mistlands, then.. well... haha

[nimble moss]

yes - people have (not me personally, but I've not tried).

[mellow ore]

how is that possible

i couldnt scratch any bosses on very hard

[charred gale]

What exactly does the difficulty level affect

Damage? Spawn rates?

[tacit crystal]

Enemies deal more damage and you deal less.

Also higher possibility for stars on enemies.

[tepid prawn]

bosses are predictable and attacks avoidable, depends on how good your skill levels are player skill not ingame skill

[nimble moss]

its not designed for most people - argubly its not even balanced correctly - its just everything upscaled and it causes some mechanics to be a bit extreme.

If you dont like it - play on Hard - the game is balanced for Normal anyway...

[tacit crystal]

Enemies are slightly larger and quicker for attacks too.

[tacit crystal]

Hard is more manageable experience in my experience.

[long peak]

I Don't think any of the bosses was brokenly hard for 1.5 difficulty couldnt get to fader but i got 1 shoted by a 1 askvins how many times i don't know and i am even using 2 health and a stamina food

[long peak]

to be honest i am agreed with afrayedknot

hard is playable but not balanced

[mellow ore]

is there any youtube vid of a guy defeating fader on very hard is fader even the hardest boss i would argue that yagluth is harder

[long peak]

this game has a so slight balance

[tacit crystal]

You could look at Scales' YT channel.

[long peak]

in my experience valheim in normal mode when you enter Swamp after Dark Fores if you are not maximized your all gear you are facing biome that 1 biome higher than your gear if you are maxed a 0.5 higher and if you crafted Swamp gears you are on the litteraly normal experience but if you maximezed now you are 0.5 higher

for a mathematical example

a drauger hits for 48

a wolf 70

when you get your self Hard mode drauger now hitting for 72

you are facing a 2x harder biome that you should experince because of your low level gears

and this scaling issues rising a lot every biome you pass

for example a fuling hit for 85

when you 1.5 its around 120 and its not a seekers avarage hit its seekers god damn double power punch

for another example

[nocturne wolf]

The effect of armor doesn't scale with damage multipliers, so if you're wearing armor you'll actually be taking a lot more than 1.5/2x damage compared to normal difficulty

[long peak]

charred warriors weakest hit 130

you are litteraly experiencing ashlands like damage in plains

but its totaly optinal no is have to play the game on hard

but its still fun

at least until ashlands but i cant see how players stand sane against 2x diffuclty

game armor and defense system not optimized for this

[nimble moss]

the main issue is - if they increased the armor - then mobs hit for less (relaitvely) -and your back to the same as normal

[nocturne wolf]

If armor was applied before the difficulty damage multipliers you would take exactly 1.5 or 2x damage compared to normal instead of significantly more like you do now

[nimble moss]

yeah, but knowing the game code, this is way harder than it sounds, so its extremely unlikely to occur

i cant imagine many people play on very hard - so for a time/effort vs other issues - I cant imagine much been done here

[long peak]

yeah in summary game has a very sensitive difficulity and nearly perfectly balanced for normal diffucluty and when you effect this sensitive system by a "HALF" its just mess it up a lot then you imagine

[nimble moss]

although with the upcoming combat patch - maybe they visit it - but I doubt it... although I tend to be wrong on these things...

[long peak]

i hope they bring a 1.25

[nimble moss]

you could mod one in extremely quickly if you really wanted it

[nocturne wolf]

One change I would like to see in combat is stars increasing health less on already tanky enemies such as morgens and fuling berserkers

They take too long to kill, I hate killing things slowly

[long peak]

İ dont know how to code

[nocturne wolf]

+100% damage and +50% health instead could be better

[nimble moss]

there are a few existing mods around difficulty options

[long peak]

but i am planing to learn it in universty

lest time i checked the mods i saw was a bit off then vanilla

[tidal slate]

Anyone want to play

[tacit crystal]

Someone in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 might.

[long peak]

what fog tar ?

you can dig a long pipe line to drain tar

after some distance tar is just dissaper

when i last played no dont know the current situation

@hushed marlin2 respawn every hour, even when the pit is drained

information is from the valheim wiki

[cobalt spindle]

hi

[long peak]

hi

great :d

https://discordapp.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202312684364910612/1375831409733800038

[mystic raptor]

It might be better if they were done separately so we could react to them individually.

[long peak]

hmm

[vocal rivet]

No, they'll keep spawning.

[nimble moss]

@odd helm - there is an error on food chart

Piquent pie is 35 stam, not 24

[verbal geyser]

is valheim indie game?

[mystic raptor]

I think technically yes but it doesn't feel completely indie to me. I'm still fairly new.

[verbal geyser]

if this developer guys work for game thats not indie ig

[merry pebble]

Yes it Is indie 🙂

[radiant eagle]

I came back fresh to the game is there a public server that is hosting ?

[silent oriole]

per definition valheim is not indie

[merry pebble]

"It is a video game that's usually made by smaller development teams or even individuals on their own without financial or technical support from large game publishers."

Sounds pretty fitting 🤔

[silent oriole]

correct me if i am wrong, but isn't irongate backed up by the publisher coffe stain studios?

[merry pebble]

Afaik they are, but i am not sure if they are providing technical or financial support.

[silent oriole]

i mean am just spitballing there, but if they would do nothing, there's zero reason to have them as published 🤷🏻‍♂️

[merry pebble]

They could simply provide advertising 🤔

[azure yacht]

coffees stain is not a AAA company

so IG is an indie company even with CS support

[silent oriole]

i mean. not triple-a doesn't mean indie in all cases 😏

but hey, indie is just a buzzword thrown around nowadays, who cares if game is or isn't indie 🤷🏻‍♂️

studios like new blood advertise stuff as indie 🤷🏻‍♂️

[nimble moss]

indies can use publishers - they do it all the time.

Valheim got a good publisher - but the studio itself is 100000000% the very definition of an indie game that had success. They have grown since - but it was orignally 1-2 people, then 5 or something - I read it on a Runestone somewhere...

[plush umbra]

This might be a crazy thing to ask but is it possible for Lox to pull carts?

[shy marlin]

nope

would be cool in theory but with how awful riding and mounted stuff is i'm glad it doesn't exist atm

[merry pebble]

Here Is a short version about their growth, more complete version Is on their website in the FAQ section all the way at the bottom 😄
#general message

[shy marlin]

Fenris, root, wolf/padded

Highly highly recommend root harnesk tho

Don't be afraid to mix and match armor pieces too, heavy helm, root harnesk, fenris legs is really strong

Just watch out for the torch guys if you're wearing root harnesk 🙂

[lusty dirge]

And the shamans

[keen trench]

heh, i'm going with wolf set helm and root harnesk, and keeping fenris/wolf legs on 7/8 equipment slot (early incursions pre-Moder)

uhm, run and pray (corpse run after you pick up the grave helps), only other way requires stuff from traders, did you find all of them?

[silent oriole]

well, my headcannon the size of the team isn't what makes it indie 🤷🏻‍♂️

[shy marlin]

unfortunately your head cannon and the definition collides with each other

[sinful fulcrum]

He did it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvsf6XO6Fws

no map/no portal

[tidal slate]

Anyone want to play I am a bet new a LFG isn't helping

[silent oriole]

u can be more than 2 people and an independent developer 🤷🏻‍♂️

vice versa you can be 1 developer and be backed up by a huge studio financially and not be indie

[nimble moss]

you're making alot of assumptions about the "confidential deal" between IronGate and CoffeeStain and what each gave to the other

Anyway - either way - this is more for #general if you want to discuss definitions more

[silent oriole]

yes, i said i was spitballing.

[shy marlin]

never said you couldn't?

Honestly just splitting hairs rn

[scenic wing]

||root harnesk|| for the buzzing noise, but ||use fire resist mead or fenris piece for fire resist it causes cuz some fulings use torches||

[silent oriole]

let's agree to disagree 🤷🏻‍♂️

[shy marlin]

yea i really don't care all that much to argue about this tbh lol

[tacit crystal]

Whole Fenris set grants fire resistance, not individual pieces.

[rose parcel]

Fenris set is peak gaming

[scenic wing]

go fast trample grass

[rose parcel]

I love running fast

[keen trench]

yup, very good one, i still use all or parts of it two biomes later

[shy marlin]

why not 3? 😏

[keen trench]

eheh, just because i'm still waiting a bit to do the last one, but i'm sure i'll use it there somehow

if in the swamps you found ||the Bog Witch, she has ingredients to make a mosquito repellant mead||

[azure yacht]

not what they meant

[keen trench]

yup, it needs ingredients from the plains so maybe not of much use if it's first exploration (in that case maybe it's better to craft a lvl 1 root harnesk to keep at respawn for backup)

[carmine sapphire]

so I was looking at this food chart and noticed ashlands and mistlands seems to have a lot more food options than the other biomes
https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/1gh9udh/valheim_food_guide_version_21/
Makes sense since there is ||a third resource|| but even accounting for that its still a lot more than the others
And that got me wondering: Are ashlands and mistlands more developed/fleshed out than swamps, plains and mountains?

in terms of enemy variety, dungeons, craftable weapons, armour, food, etc?

[rose parcel]

I think so?

[nimble moss]

just as you get later into the game it makes sense the number of "combos" of food recipes increases...

[carmine sapphire]

idk, the plains feel a bit "plain" to me

[shy marlin]

Yea, don't wanna use the phrase more developed, but they're more developed than the original 5

[carmine sapphire]

makes sense if they had more time and resources (e.g $$ ) to work on those past the initial success of the game

[shy marlin]

It's also intentional, the later biomes should be the most grand, have the most options etc

[jagged vector]

I need a mod to disable the camera from moving up and down when trying to build on a ship, anyone got me?

[nimble moss]

you can disable boat camera movement thing under accessbility already - did you try that?

[jagged vector]

I did and its not working

"Immersive camera" is off and it still bobs up and down 😦

[vernal pebble]

Is there a button to zoom in/out on controller

[nimble moss]

well - it does - but maybe it does it different to how you want. "Buildcamera" is a popular mod for camera adjustment for building - check out #mods-discussion otherwised

[vernal pebble]

On Reddit someone said LB+arrows

I just quit valheim tho

Oh yes its lb arrows

[heady parcel]

Gods, cooking is horribly slow to grow

[sly grove]

god i hate mistlands

[heady parcel]

I hated it at first, but once I got the cape and a wee bit of gear to not get destroyed every time I ran into more than two seekers at once, I started appreciating it more. Ironically though the nicest bits are the ones free of the smoke dispensers, where you can see how beautiful the landscape is.

Terrain is a nightmare to navigate without the feather cape though

[sly grove]

The actual problem is the fact that mobs can fight in the water and u cant

just now this what i got: got blockpushed into water, followed by ticks, soldier and 2 seekers, cant fight, no stamina, not that it matters anyway cuz u cant fight in the water

[tacit crystal]

That's not only in Mistlands tho.

[heady parcel]

Well you can punch them, not that it does much good - but yeah, getting yeeted into the sea in Mistlands with mobs on your tail is a death sentence, no matter your gear.

So it's generally a good idea to mind your positioning there when fighting near water

It really is the same everywhere, but Mistlands terrain makes it a bigger factor than elsewhere

[sly grove]

the terrain makes it very unfun to say the least

[heady parcel]

Boils down to one of my primary rules - never have water behind your back in Mistlands. If I get jumped by mobs near water I either run away or position myself so I have rocks behind my back, they can't send me into the drink then.

[sly grove]

well sadly theres water inbetween my corpse and me, with a soldier camping in it 😄

[heady parcel]

Ugh that IS a bummer

Shame ghost runs aren't literal ghost runs as in wow, where your spirit runs on water...

[sly grove]

Aint no way a tick was sitting inside my gravestone

yeah im done.

[quasi latch]

Do you have a backup bow?

[sly grove]

sure but orb doesnt show that far and i cant shoot in the water

[heady parcel]

But you can use it to lure the mobs away from your grave

[vapid hearth]

Damn, so at level 90 in a skill, I lose 5 whole levels when I die
I can't imagine how many levels I'd lose if I had the max level achieved

[heady parcel]

It is a flat 5% of your skill value, and then rounded up I guess. The more skilled you are, the more dying hurts. I was at 100 in several skills (swords, run, jump, bows) before I started trying to mine flametal in Ashlands. Alas, I no longer have 100 in any skill...

[vernal pebble]

Hate swamps instead

[sly grove]

dude swamps was easy, bronze mace and stagbreaker carried it no problem

[vapid hearth]

....goddamn, dying really is fucking harsh
I hope this trip to the Ashlands won't make me tear off my hair like my first ever foray into the Ashlands

[heady parcel]

Yeah my no-death run ended with an abomination yeeting me into deep water with a school of starred leeches to cuddle with

[sly grove]

oof that is rough

[vapid hearth]

Ooof, abomination
Always the number one reason to carry a sword into the swamp

[heady parcel]

Yeah. I hunt them these days out of sheer spite, just to punish their race for past crimes...

Same with fuling villages. I don't need more black metal, but I raze every village I come across to the ground, and sow new grass to leave no trace of them behind except the music...

[vapid hearth]

Ah yes, the one thing that can't be gotten rid of no matter how much of everything else you destroy

I need to get my hands on as much blackmetal as I possibly can for blackmetal chests, and upgrades for my blackmetal tools

[gray sand]

Iron chests are more space-efficient when doing mass storage jsyk.

[vapid hearth]

Is it? I thought the flatter surface of the blackmetal chests made them easier to stack upon shelves
(God I wish there was an upgrade to the barrels)

[gray sand]

Turn sideways.
Iron chests are thinner and rectangular compared to the wide trapezoids.

[vapid hearth]

Maybe so, but I don't like how the iron chests protrude from the half square of space height

[shy marlin]

Iron chests also cost iron

Wood chests goated 🗣️ 🔥

[heady parcel]

If you place iron chest with the side facing out, they take up so much less space than the black metal ones that you get more storage for space from them than from blackmetal ones.

[gray sand]

Chests? Just throw things on the ground near a bench and they never despawn. 😏
