valheim-chat

[merry pebble]

I am almost certain it has to do with cooking station 🤔

[nocturne wolf]

No, I forgot that part

[shy marlin]

Yea, it's pretty easy with the reddit post to find the interaction, but the time is the real question mark

[nocturne wolf]

Are you spawning two faders?

[shy marlin]

Just 1

no dev commands

[nocturne wolf]

So is 3 seconds from the time it spawns or from when it starts taking damage?

[shy marlin]

Time it spawns, the moment he lands from his meteor timer started

Just think on how much dps you have to do to kill fader in 3 seconds

and how on earth is that possible

[light moat]

Something to do with battering rams maybe 🤔

[shy marlin]

No prior set up or building

[nocturne wolf]

He's pickaxe immune, so I don't think so

[shy marlin]

I think seed does matter, but I don't wanna share the seed I used yet because I wanna get the ssg ng+ fader record with this lol

[dark coyote]

I only like the first two biomes honestly

[vocal rivet]

Of Valheim?!

[dark coyote]

yes

[vocal rivet]

Ouch.

What's wrong with the other 6?

[storm scaffold]

currently roleplaying as a horse and levelling up sprint

did the crow say anything about sneaking i missed?

[vocal rivet]

It'll be in the compendium if he did.

[storm scaffold]

checked and wasnt

thought id ask

[near furnace]

did you watch a certain anime by chance?

[storm scaffold]

🐴

surely not

[dark coyote]

speed racer?

[near furnace]

no no

a mad brand new anime

it's like.. the maddest anime you will ever see 🤔

[dark coyote]

hmmm idk, im watching made in abyss rn and its pretty f'd up

[merry pebble]

Uma musume?

[near furnace]

yes

[merry pebble]

Thats from 2018 tho 🤔

Also, just noticed we are in valheim chat xD

[near furnace]

Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray

2025

I am the channel derailer

witness my power

[merry pebble]

Ah yeah, thats the new one.

[shy marlin]

#general :3

[near furnace]

#Derail

oh wait. that channel isn't available to you guys 🤔

[vocal rivet]

Lol.

[storm scaffold]

is there a setting to make buildings render from farther away

[nocturne wolf]

No world modifiers too?

[shy marlin]

Normal mode

uh 1.5x and no boss portals

But don't think those matter just stating for science

[shy marlin]

Is draw distance/level of detail on very high?

[storm scaffold]

put it higher, ty

[shy marlin]

If yes and you still want more i'm sure there's a mod for it but #mods-discussion

[vocal rivet]

Lol, just seen someone post a Steam graph on Reddit claiming Valheim had 0 players even though it wasn't even the lowest line of the graph.

[quasi latch]

#1024264966712340510 there are a few I think

[final pumice]

why i cant join my friend server ?

[flat vector]

I love valheim :D

[tacit crystal]

Trying to connect through favorite tab? It doesn't currently work properly iirc.

[distant haven]

i had that issue when a friend had crossplay enabled

[dark coyote]

people get mad when they cant do it this way lol

[buoyant panther]

Had you been able to connect to it before? If so, you might ask if they've made any changes. Check your Player.log for clues on possible connectivity issues. If you're running an Internet security suite or VPN, you might try again with it disabled.

[tacit crystal]

Well, probably will be fixed at some point, but there are other ways to connect.

[dark coyote]

had one message me like "THIS IS HOW I ALWAYS DO IT BLRGADF#$$#%" 😆

[nimble mason]

Hey guys now i have buy valheim had anybody tips for me ?

[dark coyote]

keep your rest buff active

[shy marlin]

Listen to bird

[distant haven]

i haven't heard about the bird

[shy marlin]

bird is the word yo

[dark coyote]

BOP BOP BOP BOP BOP

[tacit crystal]

Like Scales said, the bird gives you very useful advices how things work. His advices are also found in Compendium when you press tab to open your inventory.

[distant haven]

how many level of upgrades do the weapons have?

[tacit crystal]

4 is maximum.

[nocturne wolf]

If you don't want to give the exact seed, could you at least share what makes the seed special so I can replicate it? I guessed it might be Fader's spawn at a low altitude but I manually generated one at minimum altitude and it didn't seem to help.

[shy marlin]

The only thing you really want is for him to be on an island of his own pretty much, right near water

Ngl tho I really wouldn't grind your gears on this too much, it has an idea from 4 wood fader that I'm pretty sure there's like maybe 3 people that know of that interaction

When/if I do ssg ng+ fader i'll show off 3 sec fader at the end 👍

[nocturne wolf]

I had a question about that too. I'm trying to figure it out on a completely empty flat platform with nothing but the wood and generic equipment. Should I be in a place with naturally generated objects instead? I know you don't want to give away exactly how this is done so I've tried to keep the question simple

[shy marlin]

So you spawned in a Fader arena with dev commands?

Maybe send a screenshot

#screenshots message I'm going out tonight so I won't be able to test if that works, but I imagine it should? 🤔 let me get back to ya sometime tomorrow

[unkempt rampart]

How rare is Asksvin 2-star?

I have not seen one yet

[merry pebble]

They only spawn at night 🙂

[steel mica]

Very rare from my experience but it is very worth it

It took me like a month to find one

[unkempt rampart]

Did you tame it?

[steel mica]

Yep very much

They eat vineberries, smokepuff, and fiddleheads

[simple pecan]

There are only 3 absolute truths in this game

1:Trees are more dangerous than half of the actual enemies
2:Fall damage is not pleasant
3:You will never have enough iron

[pliant hatch]

Make that 4: You will have to sail to another biome.

[sharp tartan]

RIP seed D62C8620dV pre-ashlands update 😔

(you could walk from the Deep North to the Ashlands with that seed)

I've been charting out a boss-less playthrough and it must be destiny because there is (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong) exactly 1 melee weapon (along with some arrows and the Arbalest) that you can make without the artisan table, and it is a weapon that holds a very special place in my heart

Krom 🥰

[steel mica]

Make that 5: corpse runs

[livid zenith]

Carapace spear is also available

[sharp tartan]

Thank you 🙏 I think my eyes glazed over it from reading "carapace" since everything else that has "carapace" in the name requires linen or refined eitr which you can't get (besides arrows and bolts)

[merry pebble]

You can also make Arbalest 🙂
-# and just now i noticed you specified melee weapons xD

[sharp tartan]

To be fair, I originally had just said weapon but I noticed the Arbalest and edited my message 😂

[merry pebble]

Aaaah, i thought i just didnt notice it the first time i read it xD wouldnt surprise me at all

[sharp tartan]

The real pain with that challenge in my opinion is gonna be no wisplight/wisp torches/mistwalker 😅. I'm sure a skilled enough player could make do in a fight with any weapon, but I don't skill can help you see through the mist

[merry pebble]

Its not really that bad in mist without them 😄 just a bit annoying

[sharp tartan]

Perhaps. I guess I'm just used to it being hard enough WITH the wisplight playing mapless 😅

[simple pecan]

I mean I guess that counts but theres some seeds with like a really huge starter island that u wont have to leave for a long time

but even then yea you'll always have to sail to another biome cause ashlands and deep north have 0 land connections

[distant haven]

hmm, got a bunch of silver.. made a frostner, then realized frostner actually sucks on what I wanted a blunt weapon for

[livid zenith]

It’s bad blunt damage, but the knockback and slow makes it good for keeping enemies away. Also the frost means it has the same damage output as other silver weapons

[distant haven]

sucks for stone golems though

[livid zenith]

Yes

It sucks for most things in mountains, but it’s good in every biome after

[distant haven]

my level three iron mace will take them down with two parries

[analog pine]

Hmm. I've been using my Dead Raiser for months, but I'm only just now noticing how weak the melee skeletts are in the Ashlands. A few of the mobs there knock them back before their attacks connect.

[sharp tartan]

HIGHLY recommend giving your skellets a shield bubble, especially in the Ashlands.
Even then they're more for distraction, they're dumb pathing will usually get them killed by walking through lava.
If you want summons that deal some damage that's what the ||trollstav (which is a really good distraction) or staff of the wilds (which can do quite a lot of damage and paralyze)|| is for

[analog pine]

Oh, I've been doing necromancy for a very long time. They'll almost always have a protection bubble if I can help it. And in general, I almost never use melee weapons after gaining access to magic. The summons and utility spells are entirely too useful.

[sharp tartan]

I mean same, skellets for distraction then elemental staff for damage. Using no melee weapons ESPECIALLY means you want distractions because if they're right in your face, you should probably be backing up instead of shooting

[analog pine]

I do back up. Gotten pretty good with my movement and know exactly when to dive away so I can quick-swap and use my staff of protection, which then allows me to throw some roots down to start clearing the area and re-summoning the idiot skeletts.

[sharp tartan]

Wasn't saying you don't back up, I was just saying skellets are so you don't have to back up, they push the front line away from you so you can do the part they can't

[analog pine]

Honestly wish there was more than Dead Raiser and Trollstav to work with. Only the former has summons that you sort of control with no danger of retaliation. Elemental gets plenty to work with by comparison. It's usable, but the boney things shatter so easily without armor.

I can't even eat them when they shatter ;-; tasty soup stock bones.

[sharp tartan]

I mean if you've got to the Ashlands I'm assuming you can handle a troll. If it's only a small number of enemies then yeah don't bother but when you're seeing a number of enemies that make you sweat, I think the "risk" of summoning a troll is definitely worth it. The summoned troll doesn't do any more damage than a normal troll even if you do get hit, it just has a lot more health but either 1. There will be other enemies that will probably grab it's attention or 2. It's basically just you and the troll(s) left, and at that point you can MELT them with the frost staff and a full eitr bar or if you don't need to kill them, just leave lol

[analog pine]

But can you eat the fiery troll?

[sand cosmos]

how to join

[analog pine]

Join what?

[sharp tartan]

[sharp tartan]

#1024264966712340510 ?

[analog pine]

Anyone else find it a bit odd that the Ashlands aren't always considered to be a heat source?

[sharp tartan]

Odd? Yes
Should they change it? Probably not

[analog pine]

I've never checked if you can have the Cold status effect there.

[steel mica]

You sure do stay wet after going in the ashlands through a portal

[steel mica]

The ||staff of wild|| is very good, even on non magic users, the ability to summon non-targetable summons that deal a ton of dmg for the cost of like 50ish eitr is very good for back up and dmg

Ive been using my go to melee x magic build with both the ashland and mistland feast and either a stamina or health food

[sand cosmos]

Servers mybad

[sand cosmos]

Thankss

[sharp tartan]

absolutely, love spamming them down at a point and then just baiting enemies through it because if that paralyze procs they're doomed
I was heavy armor melee x a little magic for range until I hit ashlands, then I decided magic is way to cool to not lean into and have been using it since

[steel mica]

Slayer, Ripper, Staff of embrs, Staff of wild, Staff of protection is my build

Has saved me many times

Especially that one time I encountered a 2** asksvin

[analog pine]

Nothing like watching a vine or two absolutely demolish a 2-star charred warrior.

[steel mica]

And was fighting for my dear life trying to get that puppy

[sharp tartan]

I do slightly miss my min-maxed Brutal Slayer max health food days. But then I watch a meteor pancake a ruin and that nostaliga passes 🤣

[wooden moth]

🐴

[unkempt rampart]

What is the maximum armor level? 129?

[pliant hatch]

Nope, 4.

Just like it is for most weapons.

[nocturne wolf]

142 without commands (level 3 flametal armor + ashen cape)
1670 with commands (level 4 flametal armor + ashen cape, spawned with world level 10)

[pliant hatch]

That's not armor level, that's armor value.

[nocturne wolf]

I know, but I assumed that's what regainer meant after suggesting it might be something as high as 129

[unkempt rampart]

Yes, armor value. I'm sorry. I have level 3 flametal armor but the feather cape. Is Ashen cape much higher than the feather cape ? @nocturne wolf

[nocturne wolf]

Ashen cape has higher defense than any other cape but I think feather cape is best

[unkempt rampart]

I'm so used to flying with the cape lol

[steel mica]

Only thing that can compete with the feather cape is the ashen cape

[tacit crystal]

I like the Ashen cape for the armor value and reduced stamina cost that stacks with Ask set.

[near furnace]

some people wants to try to stir drama

[vocal rivet]

The funny thing was that his graph didn't even say what he was saying.

[lunar sapphire]

dw, removed the note on my end

[unkempt rampart]

?

Haha now I get it lol

[lunar sapphire]

😄

[unkempt rampart]

I'm the stupid version

[lunar sapphire]

You're not stupid. Just not as smart as us

✨

[unkempt rampart]

True

I regret taking that test at Mensa

[lunar sapphire]

Lost me at test

[sour elm]

Sup guys

[open pecan]

Hey there.

[sour elm]

Not long ago, I tried the fishing rod in the game and today in real life. At first, I wondered why so much stamina is spent while fishing, and in real life, you also have to put in effort to pull or at least drag the fish to the shore.

Carp 10 kg first caught fish in my life

[warm leaf]

Helloo

[lunar sapphire]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-15045137228087982783

[open pecan]

Congrats.

[sour elm]

Thanks

[toxic swift]

Random question, but has there been any fix to multiplayer Valheim's network issue?

[unkempt rampart]

What issues?

[toxic swift]

The whole p2p networking thing causes lag desync and delays if one persons internet isn't basically perfect

[vocal rivet]

It doesn't need to be perfect, just reliable.

[toxic swift]

Well, unfortunately even though my friends and I have reliable internet, lag desync occurs and we started getting world freezes and delays

[vocal rivet]

Seems unlikely if you all have good connections between each other. Unless other things are at play.

[near furnace]

yes

don't use VPN

don't use WIFI

the games "issue" is the same as most other games in the world where people have shaky internet connections

valheim is just sensitive

[pliant hatch]

You mean that using morse code isn't suitable anymore?

Damn! I just upgraded to that from using smoke signals.

[near furnace]

Yeah. it's the old "optimize game" button feature

[shy marlin]

When it's this common of a complaint it certainly shouldn't be shrugged off like that 🤔

I know people with perfectly good and stable connections that still have lag and it's an unenjoyable experience compared to solo

I have a pretty poor connection but can still play on V rising multiplayer with no issues

Valheim not so much

[daring sinew]

Idk about that I played with someone in Argentina and someone in the U.S. while I was on an island in Greece and it wasn’t too bad

[vocal rivet]

I play on 5G WiFi over GeForce Now and I don't have the lag people claim on a server with 6-7 people.

[daring sinew]

Anyone have tips for fighting moder?

[nocturne wolf]

Make a terrain pillar to use as a shield from her projectile attack

[shy marlin]

If you don't wanna deal with stone golems mid fight trap them in some holes to prevent any more from spawning

[tacit crystal]

Any melee weapon works (except Frostner more poorly), best armor, best foods, HP/stamina/utility meads, lots of arrows.

[shy marlin]

@nocturne wolf both work

[shy marlin]

also check #screenshots for a meme

[storm scaffold]

how long do storms last bruh

[vocal rivet]

Depends on the storm.

[light moat]

This one simple trick, Fader hates this!

[merry pebble]

Depends on the day* 😄

[storm scaffold]

wish i could sleep through it

[vocal rivet]

You can. Just need a bed.

[storm scaffold]

won't let me

[merry pebble]

And time to be after noon 🙂

[quasi latch]

How early in the game are you?

[vocal rivet]

Oh, that's fair.

[storm scaffold]

finally cleared

[nocturne wolf]

Except it's not simple at least not simple to figure out

[storm scaffold]

need meat to turn to coal to make my first forge cuz i dont wanna go look for more cores

[quasi latch]

Or you could build a kiln, make coal, deconstruct it, and make a smelter

[storm scaffold]

hm

smart, ty

[quasi latch]

Anyways, storms are pretty unavoidable and you simply need to learn to deal with the lower stamina regeneration. There's an entire biome later that has perpetual rain

If you struggle with stamina but not so much health, you could consider having 2 stamina foods and 1 health food instead of 2 health 1 stamina

[storm scaffold]

my only recipe is a copper knife? 😭

[quasi latch]

Get tin

[storm scaffold]

its in the forest?

[quasi latch]

Yes. There should've been a Hugin hint for it. The raven icon in the top right part of your screen when you open inventory has all the Hugin hints you've received.

[storm scaffold]

got hit by a brute and flew 50 meters 😭

found tin at least

[quasi latch]

WHEEEEEE

[light moat]

Completed the Dyrnwyn side quest again, really enjoy it! Sadly won’t be using Dyrnwyn this playthrough, but it’s a nice trophy.

We have resources at 1.5, so me and my buddy both got all the pieces

[quasi latch]

Unfortunate that it's just a glorified torch.
Wait, the torch does more fire damage...

[light moat]

Hopefully it’s gets a little love in the combat update ❤️

[shy marlin]

🤙

[frigid gust]

1.5 is the way to do it. I wish it did like a 50% doubling for single drops like cores instead of a guaranteed two, but...

[storm scaffold]

is the bronze spear a throwing spear like flint or normal?

[merry pebble]

All spears have secondary throwing attack 🙂

If you want a pierce melee weapon the is not also ranged then atgeir is the way to go

[storm scaffold]

i want a meele weapon with longer range

aaaa i see

[merry pebble]

Then almost any other weapon 😄

[quasi latch]

Atgeir has the longest reach

[storm scaffold]

it pairs well with a shield?

[tacit crystal]

Spears should have bit longer reach, at least as long as axes or swords/maces.

[merry pebble]

You cant have shield with it, its a two handed weapon

[tacit crystal]

That's the neat part: it won't.

[storm scaffold]

i was expecting the spear to be held with the point forward like in souls games tbh

atgeir does have good block armor tho, should be fine

[merry pebble]

The main strenght of atgeir is that you pretty much dont need to block 😉 just use secondary

[storm scaffold]

should be easy to get more ore with the cart now

[tacit crystal]

It has also OP secondary attack.

[quasi latch]

Atgeir doesn't need to parry, it'll just stagger everything with the spin attack. If you do need to parry, it does have a ridiculously high amount of parry armor.

[quasi latch]

Like, genuinely overpowered. The kind of overpowered that allows it to be viable multiple biomes in the future

[warped remnant]

some times i think why not all food items have the same stack size

[quasi latch]

They should all stack up to 50 like bukeperries

[merry pebble]

🤷‍♂️ no idea, but its really not a problem since there are not stacks lower than 10 for food, and 10 is more than enough

[tacit crystal]

You wonder? I thought you'd think.

[warped remnant]

i mean i always thought that the smallest stack should be 20

[shy marlin]

Wait what's 20?

🤔 i'm actually confused is it not all 10?

[tacit crystal]

Both jerkys, sausages, wolf skewers.

[warped remnant]

bread has 20 to

[tacit crystal]

Both cooked serpent and bonemaw meats have 50.

[shy marlin]

Dog this is crazy 😅

I feel like my life is a lie

[warped remnant]

i mean we technically are eating dogs in this game

[tacit crystal]

Also both weight 10 each so full stack weights 500.

[storm scaffold]

do carts have hp?

[warped remnant]

they do

[quasi latch]

Eating dogs: WHAT THE FUCK
Eating zombified human intestines: mmm sosij

[storm scaffold]

how can i check it

been hitting a lot of branches

[tacit crystal]

Hover hammer on it.

[storm scaffold]

it seems i should build a path

[warped remnant]

i you have a long way to go and need to run this way sever times then yeah you should make a path

[storm scaffold]

My cart broke halfway to the shore

[shy marlin]

Idk man paths are a scam

[warped remnant]

building roads makes does also help that you don need to look always at the map

[storm scaffold]

Also it's construction xp

[light moat]

Built a patch once to try and take advantage of the cart. It was far more trouble than it was worth, and it didn’t really make the cart transit much safer 😅

It was super pretty though! But I will never do it again lol

[storm scaffold]

Or maybe I could transfer the cargo to a boat?

Is that a thing

[light moat]

Yep, that’s a pretty good method

For extra storage, you can place a cart on a karve

[dark coyote]

thats what I did on my first playthrough, now I always use the boat

[storm scaffold]

Oh I can make a karve just need some finewood

Prob going to hit every single centimeter of the river tho

[light moat]

My go-to plan is to setup a kiln/furnace, then grab one good haul of coppper, then one good haul of tin. Once that’s complete, I’ll make a karve and start transporting metal with it.

[shy marlin]

Karve copper sailing is such a vibe

[quasi latch]

Keep the rudder at 1 power and turn slowly

[scenic heart]

This game is great, I just bought it yesterday! Need people to play with !!

[dark coyote]

I can't get anyone to play on my dedicated server

[scenic heart]

Why not?

[dark coyote]

I think there are two people that both look for others on a server, one wants friends to play with and the griefers need someone to harass. When either sees that no one is active they just turn away.

[brazen linden]

Take this to #1024264966712340510

[steep girder]

guys i just wanna say i beat yagluth for the first time

anny tips for the mistlands??

[quasi latch]

Don't die.

[steep girder]

ah yhanks fot that

[quasi latch]

And also don't run venison-boar-honey

uhhh in all seriousness watch out for the seekers, there's a bug where they can attack while staggered

[steep girder]

oke thanks man

what wapon is the best for the mistlands?

[merry pebble]

Take it slowly, dont rush, and listen to your surroundings 🙂

[quasi latch]

Frostner does the most damage

[merry pebble]

Frostner is quite popular, BM sword or atgeir also work very well 🙂

[steep girder]

thanks guys i have frosner and a sword

[nocturne wolf]

Frostner is good for seekers but against any other enemy (including seeker soldiers) a plains tier weapon will be better

[steep girder]

the dwarf farms on yt do they realy work??

[merry pebble]

Dwarf farms?

[dark coyote]

I've made one

[steep girder]

yeah like for wood and srone

[dark coyote]

but you have to sit there for them to spawn, so unless you are doing while sleeping or something I dont think its worth it

[merry pebble]

Ah, greydwarf farms, yeah those are quite simple to make 🙂

[steep girder]

okay thanks guys you are realy helping me out😅

[quasi latch]

I prefer farming nests manually for weapon skills

Surtlings I auto farm though

[steep girder]

okay i wil have a look

and my wepon skils are already very high

[merry pebble]

Tbh, skill are not that important in grand scheme of things 🙂 nice to have but if you didnt have them you will not suffer much

[quasi latch]

I also don't think that automation is in the spirit of the game as much as, say, Minecraft

But it's a personal decision

[merry pebble]

Oh for sure, but they make a good ||blood magic|| <--- (mistlands stuff spoiler) farms if you really want to farm to raise your skill

[quasi latch]

And you'll have ||sausages|| for eternity

[merry pebble]

Hmm? I was talking about greydwarf farms 😄 but yeah, draugr work too

[quasi latch]

Ah, mb

[merry pebble]

And actually are better for the purpose i was talking about, so bonus points for you xD

[quasi latch]

The ||root harnesk + serpent shield + skeleton archer blocking skill farm|| is also quite funny

[merry pebble]

Meh, blocking leveling is done with Elder 😄

[quasi latch]

But you can get like ||50 billion skeleton archers in one place and do it so much faster||

[merry pebble]

You can spawn as many Elders as you want 😉

and the vine attack is really good for leveling

[languid vessel]

Is there a Flametal Atgier?

one of my crew is still using Himminafl, and i want to upgrade him

hell im still using himminafl

[merry pebble]

Unfortunately no, Himminafl is currently the best atgeir in game

[shy marlin]

Atgeirs really don't need an at tier version to be relevant

For example, bronze atgeir can still do atgeir things in the ashlands

[merry pebble]

Yeah, they are OP as heck, and i love them so much for it and really am not excited for when they get nerfed (which i would almost bet they will)

[shy marlin]

As long as the secondary does 3x stagger dmg they’ll be a good option

[languid vessel]

I hope we get an upgrade to Himminafl, i want a bleeding Atgier

[merry pebble]

Quite unlikely i am afraid

maybe we will get new atgeir in DN tho 🙂

[merry pebble]

At least 4x still will be less than clubs do

[shy marlin]

Robin has mentioned that he at least wants a weapon for everyone in the deep north seeing that it’s the last biome

[dark coyote]

or an upgrade mechanic

[light moat]

Bronze sword 2

[merry pebble]

Yeah, i would also love one of each type of weapon in DN 🙂
-# and i think i even made a suggestion of that 🤔

[light moat]

Let’s pull the logs 🤔

#suggestions message
yep! checks out!

[shy marlin]

Full year ago dang

[merry pebble]

Heh, my memory didnt lie to me for once XD

[merry pebble]

Hoooly, almost to the dot....

one day difference

[shy marlin]

Stars aligned

[merry pebble]

Its a sign!!!

[languid vessel]

that would be nice

[distant haven]

Finally done with moder.. mostly killed with a crystal battle-axe, arrows weren't doing much

I took a few hits learning her tells and timing, then beat her like she was my own mother

I was already treading into plains anyway, now it's just official

[shy marlin]

That's crazy 💀

[distant haven]

That's how I play most games, I test the limits and movements of bosses before going in for a kill

Like running up to her and not attacking, just dodging, just to measure how much time I have in between her attacks to get in my own

[undone hedge]

Built a nice small to med size house on the boarders of the plains biome and the swamp on the beach. I was attacked a few times by single enemies while building, no big deal. Right after completion, a set of 3 lox show up looking for trouble. Got one of them down to half health, 3 more show up....I just ran for my boat and took off. I look back and 3-4 of them were just stomping the place flat...sigh. It was fun.

[distant haven]

Yeah, I'll probably dig a trench around my base when I move into plains, then I only have to deal with dicksquitos

[undone hedge]

They got an elixir for that ailment

[distant haven]

Yeah, root armor

[undone hedge]

lol

[distant haven]

Root armor made me basically invincible to them

And the knife one shots them too, great fly swatter

[quasi latch]

Crystal battleaxe makes light work of them too

[merry pebble]

You one shot them with basically any weapon...

[distant haven]

Yeah, but slow wind up on the axe

[quasi latch]

I use battleaxe for everything

[distant haven]

Yeah, they're easy to kill with any weapon, so the faster the attack speed, the faster they die

It'll probably be a while before I get black metal weapons though, need linen, and the patch of plains I have only seems to have had the one village, which gave me barley

[nocturne wolf]

I have something fun for you all to try
First, find a melee enemy. Ranged enemies won't work since it's hard to stop them from attacking.
Hold your hammer, and select a piece that will be targeted by enemies (I've tried this with a cooking station and workbench, but anything else should work)
Keep your crosshair aimed at the ground so the preview of that piece is always visible.
Let the enemy chase you for fifteen seconds, don't let it begin any attack animation (this may be an issue for enemies with taunts such as fuling berserker)
It should now be targeting the object preview for the next fifteen seconds

This is some random bug I found while trying to cheese fader which I have still made no real progress on

[merry pebble]

Huh, so since enemy ai cant reach/attack you for 15 second they switch focus on the "ghost" piece?

Nice find 😄

[tame heron]

Anybody have room for a veteran player? I've beat Ashlands twice.

[merry pebble]

Somebody in #1024264966712340510 might have 😄

[radiant wren]

hi im looking for someone to play with and chill it can be on your seed or mine. I didnt play for some time so i dont remember that much I did every boss before plains

[merry pebble]

Look no further than #1024264966712340510 😄

[distant haven]

plains really does mandate having some kind of a plains base eh?

[merry pebble]

Not really, small outpost for farming is enough

[topaz crypt]

Something about stocking up on yggdrasil wood and wisps, then going to the mistlands and clearing the environment
Just scratches a certain kind of itch

[dark coyote]

[fringe lotus]

Anyone have news about the next update ?

[vocal rivet]

Any news is in #news

[fringe lotus]

Thx

[worn hearth]

how come i cant find my vegvisir in the plains?

[light moat]

Bad luck, unfortunately. Just keep searching, you’re bound to find one eventually

[merry pebble]

They are just the rarest ones. Look for stone circles/stonehenges 🙂

[worn hearth]

ive found so many lol full circles henges lol no luck at all

lmao found the boss not even a Vegvisir

crazy game

[simple folio]

I just found my first 1 star soldier, this thing feels like a boss lol

I just about had him dead and he called 3 of his buddies and they got me

[livid zenith]

Please calm down

[quasi latch]

What about it do you struggle with?

[livid zenith]

I disagree

no it doesn't

[worn hearth]

lol im pretty new so idk but I think its well balanced

[livid zenith]

sprinting costs stamina, this should not come as a surprise

[quasi latch]

Are you sure you've been playing for 4 years? There's food and a forsaken power that allow you to cross entire continents in minutes as early as the second biome.

If you don't eat, of course you're gonna get tired more quickly irl

[livid zenith]

you need to eat food to continue being alive irl, how is this your argument

[quasi latch]

Do you fast and sprint all day?

That's not the same as sprinting constantly. There are small gaps in your work that allow you to catch your breath.

[livid zenith]

valheim man can fast forever

[quasi latch]

Because you didn't eat and it's hard constantly swinging a giant axe or whatever

[light moat]

Bro I think you’re crashing out, it’s just a video game 😅

[livid zenith]

what a peculiar fellow

[quasi latch]

Take a 10-poind barbell, swing it in a 90 degree arc every 0.6 seconds, and tell me how long you can do that without stopping.

[undone forum]

Its a hardcore survival video game, the entire point of it is to be hard. Having the stamina system makes it that. And if you have played since 2021 why are you just now voicing your concerns about the stamina system? The system we have curretly is fine

[quasi latch]

While said 10-pound barbell encounters an object mid-swing.

[light moat]

Get a video of you doing it 👀 🍿

[livid zenith]

how long will the video be?

that entirely failed to answer the question

[quasi latch]

We also need proof that he didn't chug a Monster Energy or eat within the previous 24 hours

[ruby sapphire]

we need someone to go back in time grab a viking an dmake them 1v1 this guy

well atleast my valheim viking isnt starved all day

[undone forum]

It seems to me that you clearly don't enjoy Valheim, so why are you here?

[quasi latch]

Then run the necessary food and buffs instead of disregarding them and claiming you can't do anything meaningful in game.

[undone forum]

Seeing as you hate the stamina system and thats a very large part of valhiem

[livid zenith]

I’m also wondering why he played for 4 years

[tacit crystal]

Stamina foods + tasty mead makes wonders.

[quasi latch]

And eithkyr

[undone forum]

Also a very good point.

Ima laugh if this guy doesn't use the rested buff

[quasi latch]

Wait till this guy discovers the souls games and Elden Ring

Well there's your problem

If the souls games aren't hard for you, then why are you struggling in Valheim?

[ruby sapphire]

its because he no need to eat in those games

[simple folio]

passes some popcorn around

[quasi latch]

Ooh, thanks, stamina food my favorite

You can't cast spells IRL either

[livid zenith]

You do it with eitr, which makes stamina management easier. What’s your point?

[light moat]

Nooo they’re deleting the crash out 😂

[quasi latch]

You also can't carry 300 kg while sprinting at full speed IRL or magically reduce the volume and weight of bronze threefold from its raw materials

[shy marlin]

Someone crashed out because they had to eat food?

[livid zenith]

Yes

[shy marlin]

Sounds like they should just play the game without food, it's doable 🙂

[quasi latch]

Without taking any hits either

[tacit crystal]

Bye bye.

[livid zenith]

What valid points?

[shy marlin]

I'm sorry I'm just messing around, didn't mean to offend :*(

Maybe was a little too flippant I'll delete

[lunar sapphire]

User has been dealt with. Sorry about that 👀

[tacit crystal]

Thanks!

[light moat]

Oh man, he got banished to the shadow realm lol

[quasi latch]

Guess we'll never get the video of him swinging a 20lb sledge once every 2.12 seconds without stopping for multiple minutes straight

[light moat]

Alright, time for me to get back to work 😂

[shy marlin]

Dogg you work too much

[light moat]

Honestly I was genuinely looking forward to that lol

[lunar sapphire]

-# Maybe if y'all weren't talking shit

[quasi latch]

Valheim is a game about preparation. This is what happens when you blame the game for your lack of preparation.

[tacit crystal]

And wasting stamina on unnecessary actions like running all the time during fighting.

[shy marlin]

Lots of players struggle with that

Hugin should have a "s" key message

[livid zenith]

I was curious enough to test, with full gear and starting with a berzerkir mead a valhiem Viking can swing a battleaxe holding down attack for 51 seconds

with the ask set and a berserkir mead attacking doesn't use stamina

[shy marlin]

yea

Over the years stam management has become much easier

Hildir and bog witch specifically

[quasi latch]

On the bright side, there's a significantly lower chance now of a particular online chucklefuck catastrophically pulling something in his back while attempting to replicate this

[simple folio]

he had this, he was gunna take a vid of him swinging his 20 lbs sledge hammer non stop for a week, no food and no sleep

is there a trick to finding infested mines in the mistlands?

[steel mica]

Go up at the tall mistlands boulders and looks for mistlands boulders that are spiky and have like 2-3 of them all together

[distant haven]

cleared out a nice fuhling village on the coast, staked my claim to it, replanted all the flax I found there

honestly, I think Yaglush will be easy

i already have a good weapon for him

[warped remnant]

i didn't find yet Yaglush

are there even information stones about Yaglush

[merry pebble]

Yep, but they are rare, look for big stone circles/stonehenges, they can have them 🙂

[pliant hatch]

Have you tried looking for him in lush bushes?

[scarlet token]

You will never find yaglush in this game,only his cousin yagluth😂

[distant haven]

hmm, i did see some stonehenge looking thing, but haven't checked it out because two lox are in the middle of it.. time i get more lox meat i guess

[sacred bolt]

I was wondering why bronze mining was so miserable, then I discovered the cart

[valid python]

I skip the pick since you don't need it to get iron. I'll take two antler picks and build a Repair station on sight. Weight will cap before inventory slots.

[sacred bolt]

I think I should move my anvil setup closer to the mining spot

I have the best armor and I have the razor I am just working on upgrades atp

[valid python]

Eating in another game made me thankful for Valheims food system.

Like if eating is only something you do to not die then there's no reason to not just make 100's of the cheapest half-decient food and let that carry you through 80% of progression. And it leads to really weird things like a whole ass animal cooked on a fire being less filling than like... a cookie because the cookie had 3 crafting steps and the whole animal only had 1.

Valheim really found a good balance of making food choice meaningful and actually an interesting part of progression.

Yes also not so absurdly complicated and essential that turns away new players. Looking at you, Haven >.>

[plush umbra]

whats the command to speed up breeding process?

is it still sleep?

[storm scaffold]

Anyone tried dropping items onto a boat and sailing? Do they clip into the boat and fall or anything

[nocturne wolf]

You can put a cart on a boat but I’m not sure about dropped items

[lunar sapphire]

iirc, items tossed onto a boat clip through and sink/float as soon as the boat moves.

[merry pebble]

Sleep command will just skip one day, should not in any way affect taming, timescale could work, or if you are already using commands just use tame command to instantly tame them

[wary bane]

breeding, not taming

[merry pebble]

Ah, crap, my bad xD

[wary bane]

i read it that way at first too

[merry pebble]

No idea then, but timescale should still work

[keen trench]

when skipping night breeding goes on like smelting and crop growing so also sleep should work (dunno never opened devconsole ever)

[wary bane]

The dark power of the devconsole is absolute, seductive and corrupting.

[merry pebble]

Only those with strongest of wills are able to resist its seduction, and play normally even after tasting it.

[keen trench]

i know, almost did it when i lost a fully upgraded fenris armor due to game freeze... but i resisted (and speed farmed fenris hair on my sanbox no cost 3x res and passive enemies seed 😇 )

[wary bane]

That kinda just sounds like devcommands but with extra steps tbh

[merry pebble]

Meh, still way more legit than devcommands 😄

[wary bane]

but to fix a gamebug i give you a pass

your honour remains untainted good sir

[keen trench]

yeh didn't feel so clean... still game freeze (and subsequent inconsistency with player/world save) patched my conscience up eheh

[wary bane]

f5, devcommands, ghost, f5, faster than reloading and switching to passive and exactly the same

[merry pebble]

Vinny had another sandbox world already made 😉

Also, doesent give you the "Cheater!" stat 😄

[keen trench]

yup, my ValhLego building practice grounds!

[wary bane]

I tend to play the game as a viking lego game primarily so I have no such compunctions.

[keen trench]

damn, i knew that, yesterday i rushed spamming maypoles il all my outposts because i felt i was running out of time, then went to slleep because too tired to finish... well i did the most important ones at least

[keen trench]

i really enjoy my Lego seed, saves me a lot of time "figuring out" building tricks without res / food / raid troubles, still building something big with the sweat of farming materials is the best feeling for me

[wary bane]

i've only actually had a couple of "pure" playthroughs, I usually cave and end up building a massive city

[merry pebble]

#screenshots message @flat pivot If you dont like it, give it back.

[keen trench]

yup, that's probably why i spent my first 7-800 hours without ever beating the Elder (but with couple iron for stonecutter) and never felt boredom for a single minute

[keen trench]

that's quite the feeling when you go to the seaside in the Adriatic "sea" eheh (but it opens up into the rest of Mediterranen down south)

[merry pebble]

Tbh i quite like "lakes" like this 😄

[merry pebble]

I knew someone would get it xD

[lunar sapphire]

[long rose]

Hey how is the mod called where i can acces all matherials in my chest through the crafting table without taking everything out of it myself

Prolly something named Craft from chests, but #mods-discussion

[long rose]

Thanks guys

[wintry thorn]

Is there an effective way to create a lighthouse? Or do I have to lift up land for the bonfire?

[dark coyote]

I use demisters

[wintry thorn]

Is that a mod or a mistlands thing?

[dark coyote]

mistlands, you can farm wisps and then make them, or you can cheat and spawn them in

[wintry thorn]

Gotcha thanks, was debating if I just lift a huge land pillar or something

[dark coyote]

I usually make an earthen pier, that extends out far enough so nothing with attack the boat, then put a demister on the end

[tender quiver]

3x stamina food is bis

imagine getting hit 💀

[shy marlin]

Someone is speaking my language

[wintry thorn]

Is it ground places only too?

[dark coyote]

yeah

[wintry thorn]

Island I was thinking about building on may just be too big tbh

[jolly stag]

what i a demister? never heard this word

[open pecan]

Maybe they mean Wisp Torch?

[dark coyote]

"wisp torch" is crafted, the mistlands assets are called dverger_demister

[open pecan]

Ahh I see.

[jolly stag]

thx for the info.

[dark coyote]

the large one renders from pretty far away, its great for piers imo

[frigid gust]

Can't hit what they can't catch... 😛

[lusty dirge]

You cannot build the dvergr demister without mods though

[dark coyote]

just need devcommands

[lusty dirge]

True, that also works (if you're not paying on a server)

[dark coyote]

and for that the mod is "serverdevcommands" which gives admins that functionality

[scarlet verge]

i have 91 hours in valheim and still barely know how to do the bronze age...

[dark coyote]

is that where you are at now or did you just breeze through it?

[scarlet verge]

still at that now

ive gotten to iron age once but dont even remmeber how tbh

[quasi latch]

I like taking it slow as well. If you forget, the raven hints should be enough to jar your memory. If you go to the inventory screen and look in the top right corner, that raven icon has all your previous raven hints saved.

[storm scaffold]

can you still craft the dandelion crown or is it over?

[scarlet verge]

i disabled the raven 😭 dying then hearing him infuriated me

[quasi latch]

Well there's your problem

If you want tips on how to not die as much, feel free to ask 😄

Make sure you aren't running food more than a biome below what you're in

That's a very common cause of death

[scarlet verge]

ive been trying to unlcok recipes

[open pecan]

Have you found carrot seeds yet?

[scarlet verge]

yes

[open pecan]

Nice.

[dark coyote]

lol was literally typing that

[storm scaffold]

[open pecan]

Wiki says you can make it from June to October.

[open pecan]

@storm scaffold

[vocal rivet]

No it doesn't. It's June 1 to July 6.

Oh shit, it does on that page.

[robust delta]

damn missed out on the crown

got the magpole on standby at least, though i did put it on top of my roof. here's to no trolls throwing a calculated rock 🙏

So uh...
Using header text to make the bigger results in a 10min timeout instead of a bigger , whoops

A crossbow with frost damage.

[quasi latch]

I think most Texans would enjoy frost damage after baking in 100°F (38°C) weather all day

[light moat]

Only if I can enjoy a nice steak or burger while taking the frost damage

[quasi latch]

hot dogs are more to my liking

No, not that kind of hot dog, I meant the food item

Oh I’d be choice grade for sure, no doubt

[sacred bolt]

Elder is really hard I noted, I am using a +3 bow with fire arrows and barely doing any damage

It is one tanky boe

[quasi latch]

Melee weapons generally do more DPS. Even then, he does take multiple minutes to kill.

[storm scaffold]

Not enough campfires

[quasi latch]

Or you could do that

[hearty niche]

Finally killed the 2 star draugr archer that was terrorizing the forest

Had a brilliant idea of taking over a stone tower, building a ton of sharp stakes around it, and then just taking pot shots until he got tierd of my shit and walked right into the sharp stakes

Waiting for storms is the most boring thing

[quasi latch]

What do you need the storm for?

@shy marlin If he needs those, he can just wait until nightfall

[shy marlin]

ye idk was my best guess

[wintry thorn]

Height check on some walls

And need to pickax some too long walls and rocks in my harbor

[quasi latch]

5-6 meters should be enough for the roughest storms from a precursory Internet search. So 3 2m wood poles

[wintry thorn]

From the floor (sea) or from where

[quasi latch]

From where the water level is during clear weather

[wintry thorn]

Trying to avoid my bonfire markers going out in heavy storms

[quasi latch]

Also keep in mind that seawalls and shit won't keep the water out, it's almost completely height-dependent.

[wintry thorn]

Nah it’s not that it’s to keep the entrance lit when I’m flying in mid storm

Send a screen shot so you get what I mean

[quasi latch]

For anyone curious, we talked more in DMs. The waves noped his bonfire and it wasn't even storming. He has now decided to raise it up a good bit.

[analog pine]

Anyone else find the concept of the Brew of Animal Whispers to be absolutely revolting? You basically ferment onions, carrots, and what I assume to be dried animal poo in a vat until it liquifies.

[quasi latch]

Better than turning zombified human instestines into sausages imo

[tacit crystal]

Well, anything that helps with taming tbh...

[shy marlin]

Seeker meat gotta be nasty too

[analog pine]

Valheim's got a lot of gross, useful things in it.

[quasi latch]

But yeah, still gross. But also goofy.

[quasi latch]

It probably tastes like lobster, which is normally a rather expensive delicacy. And here we are thinking it's disgusting and overcooking it to smelt ore.

Or, even worse, throwing it into the obliterator out of laziness.

[wintry thorn]

I’ll punch this water

[analog pine]

Definitely like lobster meat, with the texture of pork?

[quasi latch]

Sure, we can headcanon that.

[wintry thorn]

Neck is a combo of squirrel and frog

[shy marlin]

Volture meat gotta be nasty

[quasi latch]

Probably tastes like chicken

...with a bit of charcoal and electrical fire mixed in. Yeah, never mind.

[shy marlin]

Food tier list in valheim when (based on how tasty they could be)

[burnt glen]

Based on how good it would be irl?

[shy marlin]

Muckshake clears

[tacit crystal]

Mmm sosigs...

[quasi latch]

fish'n'bread tbh

[burnt glen]

Made from zombie entrails, hmm might have to change my answer.

[analog pine]

Volture meat. Dry, devoid of flavor, a bit of a smokey aftertaste...

[quasi latch]

eyescream probably wouldn't be all that bad either. I know that fish eyes are supposed to be kinda sweet-tasting, so surely greydwarf eyes are too

[quasi latch]

Bitter as fuck because of all the carcinogenic ash.... mmmmm

[tacit crystal]

There are more sources for entrails than draugr.

[analog pine]

Greydwarve eyes, I imagine having the texture of rock candy, mostly due to their bodily makeup of wood & stone.

[burnt glen]

rotten glowing eyeballs and drake testies churned together? this is difficult

[analog pine]

Honestly, I'd probably want to try Roasted Crust Pie. Mostly because it's a giant scrambled egg mixed with sweet & sour vineberries. Custard texture?

[shy marlin]

Plains feast gotta be amazing

[burnt glen]

Honey Glazed Chicken

[quasi latch]

Misthare Supreme and Seeker Aspic unironically look really appetizing

[analog pine]

Mmm meat gelatin.

Stuffed Mushroom?

[quasi latch]

Seeker aspic sounds like it would taste like lobster and mushroom in a sweet and sour sauce

[analog pine]

It's always struck me as a bit strange that Yggdrasil Porridge gives less stats than Seeker Aspic despite being more expensive and only cooking one instead of two.

[shy marlin]

Ye

[distant haven]

Surprisingly the plains are much more peaceful than the meadows

[analog pine]

Hmm. The Meat Platter. Who needs veggies? Vegetables are rabbit food! Meat! Meaaat!

[distant haven]

At least by reaching plains I can fully abandon onion farming

[analog pine]

I feel like onions are the only dish that requires one item. Could be good to mass farm them to level up Cooking before turning the soup into charcoal.

[quasi latch]

Everybody gangsta until "you could eat another bite" ×3 + farming clothes + deathsquitos

[distant haven]

I just use root armor, even with no food it takes them a few hits to kill me

[quasi latch]

I reiterate, farming clothes.

[analog pine]

There's no leg slot item to match the farming clothes. 😦

[shy marlin]

game SUCKS

[distant haven]

Why would I go through the tedious process of changing outfits just to farm a patch of barley? I'll never be in "farming clothes"

[shy marlin]

[analog pine]

Died to a skeeter again?

[shy marlin]

nah was jokin around in response to

[vocal rivet]

Because of the stamina buff.

[analog pine]

At least I get a nice dress for the farming. Unlike me, my character looks great in a dress.

[steel mica]

Takes like 5 seconds and boom free stamina reduction

You'll be doing alot of farming especially in the lategame

Tbh its much more tedious to have to lose a ton of stamina and having it watch it slowly regen back

vs reducing the stamina usage meaning bigger patches of crops planted

The only time I dont wear them is when im in dangerous biomes like the mistlands and ashlands

[quasi latch]

They only reduce stamina usage for hammer, hoe, cultivator, and I think like one other base item

They're useless for combat

[light moat]

Farming skill buff from the set also increases chances of extra crops, right?

[steel mica]

Yes, because they're meant to be used in the safety of your base or when your just doing stuff in your base like building or farming

[steel mica]

the harvester set yes always wear it

[light moat]

That’s what I thought- yeah the stamina buff is nice and all but I love me some extra crops

[steel mica]

You do alot of farming then expected

[icy sail]

hey is it based on server difficulity that when i apporach swamp with boat there is army of mobs waiting on shore?

[vocal rivet]

Difficulty doesn't affect the number of mobs.

[frigid gust]

Until you're well acquainted with the swamp your best bet is usually to land at some nearby meadows or Black Forest and walk in

[dark coyote]

yeah boating up to the swamp is dangerouse, one: because leaches swim, two: there could be an abomination that will dunk you

[icy sail]

ye im just unlucky with seed and decent swamp is next to plains, and problem is draugr archer 5 meter underwater shooting bottom of boat

[icy sail]

100 meter aggro radius from other islands 5 draugs and 5 skeletons swim into me :F

[dark coyote]

sounds like a spawner camp then, usually bone piles and rotting corpses together

[light moat]

Draugrs aggro range and movement speed are so perfectly creepy, swamp is honestly pretty neat

[icy sail]

2 hour rescue mission, 5 ship wrecks, 3 bodies to retrieve... 😄

[dark coyote]

[icy sail]

we try to drop it on this small island but they are coming from big island which is really far away

[light moat]

Honestly those recovery missions are some of my favorite moments

[steel mica]

You can get like a half a reinforced chest worth of fiddleheads from one foraging

thats nuts

[quasi latch]

Especially when you run out of your house buck naked and get oneshotted

[distant haven]

I'm in the midst of tearing down my whole meadows base

well.. leaving the building and basic structures, but taking all the stuff that can't go through a portal and sticking it on a boat

[tacit crystal]

Was this a reminder that torch has... more fire damage than certain weapon?

[shy marlin]

No but that's a good point

[tacit crystal]

[shy marlin]

Oooo maybe she's doing a challenge run

Where she uses the worst weapons in the game 😏

Then again she'd be using dyrnwyn too 😏

[livid zenith]

But what if everything in DN takes 28x damage from fire, making dyrnwyn the most effective melee weapon

[shy marlin]

Torch would still be better no?

[livid zenith]

28x was the number I chose because if it’s any higher then torch is better (assuming neutral damage from other types)

[shy marlin]

oh no it wouldn't be, dryn wins by FIVE dmg in this case

lmao

wait it's actually 1 dmg

[merry pebble]

Iirc there may be some mods that enable use of devcommands, but for that you will need to go ask in #mods-discussion + mods often bring more problems

[fathom atlas]

cheers mate

[fickle basalt]

lfg to help

[sacred blade]

any balkan players ?

[merry pebble]

For sure some in #1024264966712340510 🙂

[tall swan]

will the rocks load in older worlds or are they only available in newer ones

[celest acorn]

Rocky???

[tall swan]

ya

ive been looking forever, new islands, far from spawn, high elevation, black forest, checking every rock

[celest acorn]

New world would be safer

Then transfer him to ur world

[tall swan]

i was afraid of this. ive been able to do everything else from my one legacy world.

[celest acorn]

Darn

But technically ☝️🤓 rocky isnt achtuly needed in a normal game

[tall swan]

lol, i know, hes just the only thing i haven't done yet.

[celest acorn]

But it did take me 3 hours using devcommands

I’d play it safe and look for another 1-3 days

[tall swan]

i've looked since april for a few hours a day

[celest acorn]

Okay

I think the world’s the problem

[tall swan]

i'll try that next, thanks for talking through it

[celest acorn]

Also, i can donate if you want

#building-screenshots message

[tall swan]

oh my! no i've done the whole game vanilla from beginning. i want to earn this part myself as well.

[celest acorn]

I was just joking

[candid basalt]

Are those face rocks just random rocks in the worlds?

[charred rune]

They spawn in place of normal stones. But only in unexplored areas - 500m from discovered areas - and between 5m and 20m above sea level. You should check every slope, even small ones, during your search. Rivers and cliffs are most promising yet I found mine on a little hill in the Black Forest.

[shy marlin]

🤙 yooo

[charred rune]

And 1000m away from map center.

[grizzled pagoda]

Add deepnorth

[vocal rivet]

They are...

[merry pebble]

Slopes have no higher probability to have them 🙂 but otherwise yep

[charred rune]

They should at least in theory, since there's lots of stones. Yet I've found mine at a little hill too.

[vocal rivet]

Aside from the Lox we already have? Probably not.

[light moat]

Not that we know of, but I’m doubtful 🤔

[rocky nebula]

just for that they arent adding it

[tame patrol]

Hello fellow vikings!

So, I JUST defeated Bone mass.....

And im having a bunch of fun....buuuuut....what do I do now? I know imprep for snow and plains....but i didn't grt a wishbone should I fight him again?

[quasi latch]

Are you sure you didn't miss the wishbone?

[open pecan]

Odd you didn't get a Wishbone. Did you go back and look around for it?

[tame patrol]

I didn't, but I will tonight

[quasi latch]

Bonemass is supposed to drop 1 wishbone per player.

[tame patrol]

Prolly did i did get the trophy though so I should have gotten it

[open pecan]

Yeah go back and have a look around. Otherwise you'll have to Debone the Mass once more. Unless you want to use DevCommands which I can only assume would spawn one in for you.

[tame patrol]

I don't use devcmds bleh I'm a real viking i fight for what I want 😛

[open pecan]

Same.

[tame patrol]

I wish there was a better structural side to the building, having random posts everywhere kinda sucks lol

[spare quail]

there kind of is, shouldn't need random posts

[quasi latch]

Can you send a screenshot somewhere? You're probably approaching the problem wrong

[tame patrol]

I can when I get home, I just have to have like a second wall on the top layer being held up by 45° posts otherwise the floating roof crumbles

I wish valheim had the option to change Portal color

[brazen linden]

With different building material, you can build taler and strech longer. Wood-beam vs Core beam vs stone vs iron-beam, are a big difference.

[tame patrol]

When do I get iron beam?

[quasi latch]

There's no iron beam. Are you thinking of wood iron?

[tame patrol]

You said iron beam 🤣

[brazen linden]

A beam made of wood and iron.

[celest acorn]

Why would there be an elephant in the middle of Sweden??

[tacit crystal]

But not in Norse mythology (although they don't 100% follow it when creating new mobs).

[tame patrol]

Wdym the zombies are totally in mythology

[halcyon thistle]

you did get what you fought for, just missed retrieving it lol

[tacit crystal]

I meant elephants/mammoths.

[tame patrol]

Nah those are mythical creatures like unicorns

[halcyon thistle]

the thing is, norse mythology creatures would probably live in other realms, and not in valheim

dwarves are an exception that is justified in the lore

[tame patrol]

The political correct term is little person..
(I'm joking)

[halcyon thistle]

actually it's divisive, some people prefer the other way

[tame patrol]

Ik im just messing around

[distant haven]

Yeah, draugr were in Norse mythology. Some times depicted as a reanimated corpse, but some times much more than that. Truth is, what you see in media called zombies ain't zombies either. Zombie are voodoo mythology, usually a still living person under control of a spell.

[celest acorn]

Draugr apocalypse??

[light moat]

Although I do think mammoths (or a mammoth-like) would be a far better fit than a horse (or horse like) it’s hard to say what will happen. Heck, never would’ve expected (Dep North spoiler) ||seals|| but here we are

[quasi latch]

We need painguins. Like deathsquito, but in penguin form

[celest acorn]

Smiffe be like: let’s seal the deal 🦭

[hushed ermine]

is there a way to teleport to your comrade or any other means of fast travel?

[celest acorn]

PAINguins

[scarlet verge]

i despise the ocean in every way possible. just took a boat out in this game and have a fking serpant in my face

[hushed ermine]

because for now game feels like a trash and disrespect to a players time

[celest acorn]

#valheim-help

[spare quail]

Skill issue, 100 ways to make it easier on you.

[scarlet verge]

is this not #valheim-chat ...

[celest acorn]

Brain fart

Thought this was general XD

[scarlet verge]

did this server get reset or something, i joined it some years back when the game came out and this guy was helping me. He was a dad abt in his 50's. couldnt see my old messages when i rejoined

[hushed ermine]

i absolutely acknowledge that it's a skill issue, but game itself making me walk absurd annoying amount of time to my grave is not helping me getting interested in game

[spare quail]

that's a learning curve, you won't make the same mistake twice

[hushed ermine]

like, 3 times already

[spare quail]

well...

[celest acorn]

That’s just valheim

[hushed ermine]

i don't do a mistake, blue eyed treants spawn all over me and stone me to death

[celest acorn]

It’s a feature

Cuz the Black Forest is the second area

[scarlet verge]

why not put a portal on the outskirts of the area ur exploring

[hushed ermine]

like, i get an overall idea: you can't get coсky with enemies in new area before you build a base(bed) in said area
the problem is - i can't catch a breath in dark forest

[quasi latch]

Yeah, it got nuked by a bunch of bots about a year ago

[nocturne wolf]

Try to keep the rested buff active at all times and stay out at night because of increased enemy spawns

[hushed ermine]

how am i supposed to get this stuff from starting location?

oh, i can't post screenshots

basically, it requires materials i don't have access to yet

[scarlet verge]

idk dude, im 100 hours in and im sailing around the swamp rn 😭

[quasi latch]

You don't unlock portals until after you explore the second biome a bit

[scarlet verge]

never progressed past it

[hushed ermine]

i played 2 hours and i came to the point where starting location has nothing to offer anymore, but dark forest kills me in first 2 minutes

[maiden granite]

bread?

[scarlet verge]

are u taking the correct food and gear?

[hushed ermine]

i mean, my wife managed to build 2 beds in third run, but she accidently claimed both beds

[scarlet verge]

destroy the bed replace it

[quasi latch]

Did you beat the first boss?

[hushed ermine]

ye ye, i know it, i just capitalized all my health on that leap of faith into the bed

then realized both are claimed and died next second

and i am not ready to run 4th time

it's disgusting game design

[scarlet verge]

get ready then 😭

[scarlet verge]

its just harsh game design

[hushed ermine]

harsh can be done without disrespecting person's time

[nocturne wolf]

Are you able to go around the edge of the black forest to get closer to your grave?

You could make a bed closer without entering the biome this way

[quasi latch]

Generally, if something is taking an abysmally long time in Valheim, you're taking a suboptimal approach to the problem.

[hushed ermine]

i considered that 2nd run, but if it only gets worse then it's absurd design still

[quasi latch]

There are exceptions, the ||iron grind|| later on being a prime example, but those are exceptions to the rule.

[hushed ermine]

like, am i supposed to place bed every 20 meters in swamp area?

[nocturne wolf]

By then you'll have access to portals

[hushed ermine]

oh, fair enough

[quasi latch]

You get faster at picking your way across the terrain. It took me a while to get used to, but now it's amazing fun.

[nocturne wolf]

You could eat some stamina food, use Eikthyr's power and run past everything. Don't miss the rested buff, since it doubles your stamina regeneration and increases health regeneration.

[frigid gust]

What food are you eating? What armor and weapons? The biggest thing a lot of people miss is that food is critical, as is building all the crafting stations to be able to build other tools, meals, etc.

[scarlet verge]

ur not forced to play the game, theres also a manual save if u press escape so u can just reload the backup if u like

[hushed ermine]

i don't eat food

[frigid gust]

That's your problem

[nocturne wolf]

That's why you're dying so often

[scarlet verge]

food gives u stamina and health??

[quasi latch]

Well there's your problem, holy cow

[hushed ermine]

in multiplayer?

[scarlet verge]

if u start server yes

[scarlet verge]

click escape and u can see it

[quasi latch]

If you don't eat, you can't even regenerate health

[hushed ermine]

i deliberately ignored food to force myself getting good at fights faster, but ye, should put aside that mentality during "migration" periods

[scarlet verge]

this has to be coping not strategy 😭

[quasi latch]

Food means you'll have like 3x the health and 2x the stamina

[hushed ermine]

when u know u will die from 2 hits even from boar - it motivates a little

[nocturne wolf]

There is a combat difficulty world modifier you can change instead

[frigid gust]

Yeah 😉 This is where people usually get hung up on Valheim as compared to almost all other survival games. Food is an actual mechanic, it's just not "stop from starving" chore crap like most other games.

[quasi latch]

@shy marlin Thoughts on not eating as a new player?

[hushed ermine]

no no no, that's for pussiеs

[scarlet verge]

he means to make it harder not easier

[hushed ermine]

AH

[quasi latch]

So to get this straight, you deliberately made the game harder for yourself, die a lot, and then call it bad game design.

[hushed ermine]

my problem is not with dying

i knew i will die a lot

[scarlet verge]

i just died a whole continent away from my bed and respawned abt 50 meters from my death inventory? howd that happen

[quasi latch]

Interesting. Could you post the map somewhere fir the area in question?

[scarlet verge]

well my death inventory also just isnt here...?

[hushed ermine]

my problem is with game punishing you by wasting your time a lot if you don't put checkpoints every 20m
and if you do...well, you are spending half of your time building beds, huh

[nocturne wolf]

Did you close the game immediately after dying? That can cause saving issues.

[scarlet verge]

i did not

[quasi latch]

Sometimes you have to zoom in to get right next to the death marker

[nocturne wolf]

You wouldn't have to place a bed every 20m if you weren't using a challenge run to learn the game

[quasi latch]

Well you could run farther than 20m reliably if you had food. You'd also be doing fewer death runs.

[tame patrol]

Use portals

[quasi latch]

Again, eating food means you could have 3x the health and 2x the stamina.

[quasi latch]

Thallas is in Meadows currently

[scarlet verge]

nope i had it right, the issue was i logged as a died to and loaded a backup 3 mins prior and didnt load it back

[nocturne wolf]

You could load a character backup the same way you load a world backup

[scarlet verge]

im not sure how i respawned here tho, did it load in where i had saved?

[scarlet verge]

yea i think it loaded my saved position

[scarlet verge]

tbf its just a matter of learning

u dont have to place beds so often if u dont die

u could use portals instead aswel since ur gonna want/need them around places anyway

[hushed ermine]

it makes sense, until your customers leave before getting good enough

[nocturne wolf]

You're choosing to make the game harder than it should be to a new player

[hushed ermine]

(although i understand i am b*tching right now because of skill issue)

[scarlet verge]

u just told us u dont eat food cause u wanna make urself better, ur doing this to urself 😭

[tame patrol]

This game isnt hard....

[quasi latch]

Some people do challenge runs without food, but generally only after hundreds if not thousands of hours in the game.

[tame patrol]

🤦‍♀️

[quasi latch]

Even with food, your first encounter with skeletons is probably going to fuck you up pretty badly. Meadows should feel pretty easy.

[hushed ermine]

no

curb stomped one with bare hands in starting location, hitless

[quasi latch]

Now try four of them at once.

With a ghost thrown in.

[tame patrol]

Ghosts are easy

[scarlet verge]

i want a clip of u curb stomping a troll bare handed

[hushed ermine]

i died to 2 of them second time only because i got surprised they don't get staggered much by stone hammer

[hushed ermine]

i, in fact, want to do this

[shy marlin]

Everyone should do it, saves 3 inventory slots

[quasi latch]

Well fuck, that didn't help our case.

[hushed ermine]

3????

[shy marlin]

Everyone should also not use armor, saves 4 inventory slots

[nocturne wolf]

Playing with an inventory is only going to lead to inventory management issues

[shy marlin]

Yea so people should play without inventory

Wise words I like it

[hushed ermine]

also

[quasi latch]

Scales, for context.

[hushed ermine]

any recommendations with mods? are they cruicial for better experience? (like in Darktide, for example)

[nocturne wolf]

You should avoid mods for your first playthrough as they can lead to breaking things which you don't realise are broken

Someone was able to get iron very early, for example, without realising they had skipped a lot of progression

[quasi latch]

#mods-discussion if you must. I highly recommend against mods for the first playthrough, though.

[steel mica]

Valheim by itself already has a ton of content so you should be hooked till endgame

[hushed ermine]

no no, i meant QoL kind of stuff

[nocturne wolf]

Any mod can break anything

[steel mica]

Even if its QoL mods I still advise against it for your first playthrough

[frigid gust]

I prefer playing through with no mods, you don't know what QoL you might want until you know what's already there. I personally like it find perfectly vanilla.

[hushed ermine]

after Darktide i ask about this in every game-community i jump in

[quasi latch]

At this point, if you're refusing to eat food and calling corpse runs bad game design because of it, your idea of what is considered QoL probably includes multiple game-breaking mechanics.

[frigid gust]

Many QoL things are already handled in world options as it is, too. Lots of mods people use that are already in the base game features.

[hushed ermine]

my wife disliked building system (but i am never responsible for building a base, so i have no idea how a proper system should feel like)

[steel mica]

The most important thing when playing a new game is literally just play the game and get used to the mechanics and feel

[scarlet verge]

then unfortunately the right side of her brains dominent

[steel mica]

the building here is quite simple

[quasi latch]

No need to get that personal with it

[scarlet verge]

u unlock an unfathomable range of building options the more u progress

[hushed ermine]

nah, it's ok

[steel mica]

[scarlet verge]

wasnt meant to sound as tho its an insult, apologies

[hushed ermine]

you were right anyways lol

[hushed ermine]

she was fine in ARK: Survival Evolved (i mean building system), so i got confused big time

looks like same building systems to me

[tacit crystal]

Building system has been quite simple since launch but nowadays it's easier thanks to the ability to swap snap points for building pieces.

[hushed ermine]

good time to join in then

[graceful coral]

hello vikings, i too am a viking

[tame patrol]

No

[hushed ermine]

show us ur valhalla documents

[tame patrol]

Where are yours?

[hushed ermine]

and OdinID too

[tame patrol]

🤣

[hushed ermine]

i am not a viking

[graceful coral]

i built a bridge across a gorge in defiance of hades and the little stream he had running through the gorge. thus i defeated the designs of the gods.

valhalla now pls.

[steel mica]

You still have a ton of time to catch up to the lastest content, so dont feel discourage that its gonna take you a long time

[hushed ermine]

all i need is to put my roots into dark forest sooner than i rage quit

[tame patrol]

Is it troll proof? Lol

[graceful coral]

i did have to defend it against trolls.

[tacit crystal]

Yes, new content will be generated automatically when you open your world after a content update.

[graceful coral]

while my friend did exactly nothing to help me. :c

[tame patrol]

Lol

[graceful coral]

the stability is ominously red. but i'm sure thats just a glitch.

[open pecan]

Classic friend.

[hushed ermine]

"automatically"?

[quasi latch]

-# toooooorches

[tacit crystal]

Yes, when content update is added to the game the new content will be generated in your old worlds too when you launch them.

[quasi latch]

Like, you won't have to manually configure stuff when the update drops for Deep North to generate.

[tacit crystal]

But note that they are generated in unexplored areas.

[graceful coral]

i only built the bridge cos i was making a path all the way to spawn from our village, then got a 2h side quest to make a bridge to continue my path

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hushed ermine]

magnificent

[steel mica]

To simply put, say you have a old world and then an update comes out, the parts of your world that is unexplored will generate new content

[tacit crystal]

That way old worlds stay relevant even when game gets new content.

[steel mica]

Doesnt minecraft do a similar thing like valheim but just in a larger scale

because you have to travel so far to get to new content

[tacit crystal]

But in case of final biome, it's best to leave that unexplored if you want to play your world when it's added.

[quasi latch]

And please for the love of Odin eat food until you actually know what you're doing. The difficulty ramps up significantly after the first few biomes.

[tacit crystal]

Hmm, can't remember.

[quasi latch]

Yes.

[steel mica]

Dont spoil him about our friendly blue man

[quasi latch]

"Oh hey, this one has stars! Wonder if it's friendly"

[steel mica]

💀

[graceful coral]

i had an unpleasant fellow try send me into orbit with a tree.

very rude. very unwarrented. i just tryin to build stuff over here.

[quasi latch]

You can actually send yourself into orbit later on with ||catapult + feather cape||

[graceful coral]

Viking space project.

theres more than one way to get to valhalla.

if you've seen predator, that scene where they fire into the forest. but replace the guns with bows. and the soldiers with your buddies.

[tacit crystal]

At least you don't fly into orbit like in Skyrim when giant hits you with a big club. 👨‍🚀

[graceful coral]

no i just get turned into a silly little headstone instead.

[frigid gust]

Very carefully 😉 Parrying and non-blunt damage is your best bet usually, the hardest part about them is that you're usually surrounded by other enemies as well, and they hit hard.
