Flametal pick when Rocky

sonic drum
#

maybe deep north?

#

Plot twist, we need multiple black metal picks, one for each type of gem. And gems become common in DN like surtling cores do from forest -> swamp

nocturne wolf
sonic drum
#

i really hope thats not the logic going forward

nocturne wolf
#

We don’t know if there will be anything new to mine so maybe we don’t need one

That probably would be terrible anyway, that's good

New combat update?

Nicee

tacit crystal
#

There are few things teased, like ||new armor set (and maybe a fist weapon)|| and ||archery target you can retrieve arrows from||.

#

And slope combat improvement.

analog pine
#

The amount of times the slightest elevation have prevented any and all damage from either me or my target are too many to count. I can't wait for slope combat improvements.

vocal rivet
#

Just move. Works great.

analog pine
#

I do. But I try to attack my target first.

#

I've played the game from start to finish plenty of times. It's best not to assume I don't know what I'm doing or how to solve an issue in the game.

vocal rivet
#

Did I?

analog pine
#

From the sound of things, yes. That sarcastic comment made me think you didn't know what I was doing. I know how elevation works in this game.

nocturne wolf
#

I hope we can see how it’s changed soon. Maybe Hervor fights on a slope in the next video before she dies because she used Jotun Bane.

analog pine
#

The Jotun Bane. I remember that pre-ashlands. For some reason, I was using that for cutting wood instead of a black metal axe. It seems more useful for combat, now that I've completed a solo file.

shy marlin
#

I will be hosting a massive party if Hervor Bloodtooth dies, bring your own mead ofc

analog pine
#

The name sounds familiar. That's the fictional character from the Valheim comic series, right?

shy marlin
#

She's the character that features in the deep north teasers

analog pine
#

Well, I was somewhat close. Maybe I should catch up on the teasers.

#

That reminds me of the icy spider thought I had for the deep north. It's strange, but I kind of want to mash up their corpses into a mead base. Wouldn't be the first time I've played a game with a spider corpse in the alcohol. Flavor: Tastes of death. Texture: Crunchy.

vocal rivet
#

Spiders were rejected for Mistlands. Can't see them coming back.

analog pine
#

Aw. Nothing wrong with some creepy, delicious crawlies. Oh well.

vocal rivet
#

Well, there is for a lot of people. And also, they're a bit obvious. Devs words, not mine.

tacit crystal
#

Big spiders is quite boring consept tbh.

analog pine
#

Indeed overdone. But they're good protein. Delicious, bitter protein.

#

Well, at least Grounded 2 is being released into early access in 13 days, so I could get my spider fix there.

shy marlin
#

I think it would be cool if the || enemy featured in the deep north dungeon could climb on the walls in the dungeon ||

analog pine
#

Which one was teased?

shy marlin
#

It would work well with the seamingly dark environment they're going for

Okay, so with a bit of experience under my belt, Swamp is no longer quite as scary.

shy marlin
#

Rocky nice

#

I enjoy swamps

nocturne wolf
#

Swamps is one of my favourite biomes I don’t get why so many people hate it froggi

shy marlin
#

Wet debuff

#

I like the biome too but that's the reason

nocturne wolf
#

Yes you need to grind a lot of iron but going though dungeons is so much better than sitting still and mining through a single chunk of ore

candid basalt
#

A “storm” where it stops raining in swamps occasionally would be cool

median ibex
tacit crystal
# shy marlin Wet debuff

Added with rushing without rested, bad foods and armor, sprinting all the time and not leaving when night comes.☝️Rocky

shy marlin
#

Yea those are beginner mistakes, and swamp is imo the end of the beginner part of the game

#

So it's slightly excusable, because the game really never punished you for doing those things until the swamp happened

nocturne wolf
#

‘Brutal’ survival game not being brutal enough 😔

No shield is ok if you play right but I doubt a new player would be doing that

#

Against anything but an abomination and Bonemass atgeirs do pretty well in swamps and that’s pierce damage + no shield

median ibex
# nocturne wolf Against anything but an abomination and Bonemass atgeirs do pretty well in swamp...

Well yeah, but that's also because Atgeirs are kind of insane.
Two handed weapon, so high base damage, on top of good reach, giga stagger on the secondary attack, and again the secondary attack just being great against groups of Draugr/Skeletons.

But tbh, maybe I should rephrase to specifically "Spear with no shield", since it's exclusively pierce and doesn't have the other benefits of the Atgeir.

#

So mb.

It was a kind of broad statement that lacks context.

I was right, my mouse was going bad. With my new one I will definitely feel a lot less stressed fighting. Its been crazy struggling just to turn around, let alone attack or block.

Swamps just puts a lot of new stuff onto a new player for the first time.

First biome which almost always requires you to sail for the first time to discover

First biome which makes you consider base location and its importance (to process the iron)

First biome where the regular enemies don’t fuck around

First biome which requires intentional preparation for less you get ur butt kicked

Imo the difference between Meadows to Black Forest and Black Forest to Swamps is the same as Geeked vs. Locked In

fossil delta

The swamps taught me the importance of the jump and run skills.

So random question.

Is there any particular reason why the cost-benefit ratio of a 2x1 stone wall is so horrifically bad when the 4x2 stone wall exists?

I get that the smaller pieces probably should have worse ratios but you could half the cost of a 2x1 stone brick and it's still less cost efficiency than 4x2. And 4x2 stone walls are ugly as hell.

sonic drum
#

they should cost more, even if the total of the combined pieces are more then the 4x2; a good reason for that at least imo, if you stagger them it provides better stability over all width wise, if a mob comes and breaks a 4x2 piece and lets say its a crucial structural piece required to hold up whats above it will cause a lot of things to fall after said piece is destroyed, where as the 2x1 pieces when staggered one can break and the rest will be able to support the pieces above

errant knoll
#

Even if a 2x1 stone brick costs 2 stone though it's still more expensive than a 4x2

#

Like I get that there should be a tradeoff but the efficiency ratio is so bad right now it's actually ridiculous

sonic drum
#

where i dont exactly agree with the cost of the pieces i can understand why the devs made it way and really i think it just comes down to stability

steel mica
#

The 4x2 stone piece is probably not meant to be used for making bases/houses but used as cheap perimeter defense

sonic drum
#

you can use em inside the base where its not going to get damaged as well, or behind a wall of chests

steel mica
#

It can still be used for building bases yeah but the downside what you said cel

#

Stability

sonic drum
#

they are good for use in areas where you can sac the stability and save some materials, and as black said as well they are good for cheap perimeter defenses

steel mica
#

Stone in the early game is quite hard to get in large quantities until you get to mountains, plains, or ashlands

#

Yes stone is abundant but to get enough to use it for building bases ehhh I rather use that time to progress and get a better way of gathering stone

sonic drum
#

any of the ruins pre mistlands are all good examples of how the stability plays out when using the smaller pieces IE the black forest ruins that have some of the pieces missing from them

steel mica
#

If I hadnt progressed to ashlands I would have spent so much time mining away getting stone for my base

median ibex
#

Decided to try out the Battleaxe and man... it bullies Abominations

Feels a bit lacking in comparison to the Atgeir, but... hey, it's cool.

Also, this is a weird one, but I appreciate that the game is lengthy. I feel like a lot of games these days are afraid to hide a lot of their game behind progression and secrets. Game simply don’t have to be high-energy all the time. We see a lot of terms like “grindy” and “quality of life” that are just so casually used Ragnar_laugh but often times it’s the grind and the work that goes into your adventure that actually makes the experience enjoyable over a long period of time.

#

I only use axes for combat out of desperation. IE I was cutting down trees, got attacked, so stick with the axe.

#

Except the crystal axe and abominations.

sonic drum
#

the axes from ashlands are good other then you cant hit things that are lower then you atm, i still have to use black metal axe for trees and stumps

#

out of all the weapons those paired with the bloodstone seemed like a good match

fossil delta
#

I like the Crystal Axe for cutting down trees/buildings because of its AoE.

sonic drum
#

i havent messed with the crystal axe at all really i probably should

fossil delta
#

I find it to be fun. Its really great against abominations, but its a mountain weapon, so not really helpful when you need it much earlier. Unless you play like my wife and I do. We had silver well before we were done getting iron.

sonic drum
#

i will usually venture into the mountains before i kill bonemass to get the frostner and at minimum the wolf cape

fossil delta
#

We found a lot of silver rather easily this time around. Seemed like every time I thought it was a good spot for silver, it was.

sonic drum
#

ill usually find 3-4 veins without issue then stop til i get more into mountains

fossil delta
#

We did 4 or 5 veins before Bonemass. One was a double, so Frostner was level 3. Bonemass is rather easy with a lvl 3 Frostner.

sonic drum
#

nice, yea frostner is my goto when i get to mountains

#

that and the bow both are great weapons

fossil delta
#

I still prefer my iron mace with golems, but yeah, Frostner works fine with the wolves.

#

Makes the fulings rather easy too.

sonic drum
#

yea it does

fossil delta
#

Frostner is surprisingly useful in the Mistlands too.

sonic drum
#

i use it til i get mistwalker then switch to that

fossil delta
#

Yeah, I start using the black metal sword in the plains, mainly just to get my skill up. I miss the days when we could beat on trees for skill increases.

sonic drum
#

i just made a base around a greydwarf spawner and use that

fossil delta
#

Yeah, I have done that too. I just dig a pit around the spawner, let them fall in, etc...

sonic drum
#

yup exactly

#

but i added places to skill swim/fishing/riding as well

fossil delta
#

Fishing is the only one I really work at, and only because of the foods.

sonic drum
#

im not to into the fish foods, fish wraps are good but sometimes im too far behind in fishing to bother; there is a little more of an incentive to fish for the meads added with the bog witch

#

i have too much fish now and nothing to do with it

fossil delta
#

I love it when I can set up those tidal catch traps. Not easy to find good spots for doing that, though.

sonic drum
#

i havent really tried those yet, if i want to finish getting all the levels of fish i need the skill to be up

#

northern salmon are killing my stam atm

fossil delta
#

Yeah, like I said, I am not worried about catching all the fish types. Just what I need for the foods.

sonic drum
#

im hoping they add more things to do with the other fish that have no point aside raw fish

tacit crystal

I know about mead making but must confess I was never enthused by making much meads beyond resistance meads

#

The healing/stam meads I knew were there but wasn't really enthused (mostly due to a mindset of not wanting to use potions in games).

The other meads didn't exist my first playthrough, stuff like ratatosk and berserkir is cool

tacit crystal
#

I usually carry hp, Ratatosk and tasty/lingering stamina meads with me.

merry pebble
#

Yeah, I use ratatosk when exploring and running around, other meads not really, sometime i use them during bossfights 😄

Bc they are bad in my opinion. Because of the stamima that they use.

tacit crystal
#

Basically I used sledges, battleaxes, atgeirs and 2h swords.

amber quiver
#

Maybe something like that. I just can't think of a certain weapon type because some weapons you only get at a certain point of the game. For example Battleaxes.

chrome badge
#

Maybe just the category of Club weapons, which gives a very early option.

amber quiver
#

Yea or just Basic axes if you count them as a weapon.

Why wouldn't you? 😛

Axes are often defaulted to because of their high utility when exploring.

A workaround for the game working as intended?

The only real option (aside from getting them better internet) would be to ensure that they never get chunk master.

Even with them getting better internet, there's these brief delays that don't make sense, tried this out in different servers with different people

# frigid mango i havent seen any of the mistlands concept art, but i'd love to see some terrify...

It was on the artists you tube, or maybe a podcast, and this was when we still believed the place holder assets were indicative of what it was going to look like. So the proposed creatures looked very "spidery". Apparently that messed with a LOT of peoples phobia's, So then we ended up with what is seen today. So I am hopeful that changing them to looking icy will make them be not spidery looking enough, and not phobia triggering, and allow us to see them fully done. Except maybe that one that looked like it would enclose us. I think I could do without ever seeing that one in game.

frigid mango
#

nice... hopefully they tone down a mob's spider-ness a little bit and add it into the game, perhaps a major enemy, like the troll & (& can mean "and," adding this in case you've never seen that symbol before) morgen of their respective biomes

fossil delta
#

The Abomination reminds me of one of the concepts we saw, so I remain hopeful to see them.

pliant hatch
#

Why would the remove anything resembling a spider to avoid people having arachnophobia leaving the game, just to add it in a later biome?

That would basically mean they would still chase a certain group of players away.

fossil delta
#

Thats why I am hopeful turning them icy will work. Enough of a change to not trigger the phobia.

#

I mean, when you get down to it, the Abomination is very spidery looking.

sonic drum
#

if mistlands stayed the way it was i could see that triggering some phobias, a single spider mob i dont think would be as triggering

#

spiders dont bother me but when i went there exploring i was saying to myself "this is gonna f'ing suck"

fossil delta
#

I'm not even sure the phobias are why they changed the look so much. That may be more what we fans discussed at the time. I'd have to go back through those blogs to refresh my memory.

pliant hatch
#

You think?

I do know what a single spider can do to a person having arachnophobia.

Simply because I heard "ooohhhh" over voice channel, followed a bit later by : "Mom fainted, How to I move her character out of the way of that spider in that game."

fossil delta
#

This was what? 3 to 4 years ago now? How many even remember a swamp without the Abomination?

i know i had it before that

fossil delta
#

I bought it within 60 days of it being up on Steam.

#

Started playing it right away with friends.

#

I wish I got in back when people got those Odin items. I believe those were the Kickstarter backers. Well before it appeared on Steam.

sonic drum
#

i got it a week after it came out

#

i missed the odin item too sadly

fossil delta
#

So you were playing before I was, for sure. It was on Steam at least a month before I got it. It was 2 or 3 items. Cloak, hat, and I think a mug.

sonic drum
#

didnt know about the hat

fossil delta
#

I've played with one of the people who got them. He liked to wear them and make us jealous. 😄

sonic drum
#

were they anything other then cosmetic?

fossil delta
#

Nothing more powerful. I think the hat only gave 1 armor. Cloak was the same as any other, armor wise. Just unique looks.

sonic drum
#

well at least it wasnt something that made people op

fossil delta
#

Basically just items of recognition, for being such early supporters.

sonic drum
#

glad they did something like that tbh

#

even if i cant get the items, its to see them put something in as a thank you to those who supported them

fossil delta
#

We tried to get them to do an item for those of us who were early buyers on Steam, but that never happened.

#

I think they said something about the logistics of getting out such an item to hundreds of thousands versus just a few hundred. Again, years ago now, so don't quote me on it.

sonic drum
#

i could see that tbh, would be kind of a pain to do so

fossil delta
#

Yeah, just to compile the list probably would not be easy. Even from Steam records.

sonic drum
#

thats just a lot of work and a lot of digging

fossil delta
#

Thats essentially what I recall being said about it.

#

Basically, "We'd love to do it, but no idea how we would go about doing it accurately and fairly."

sonic drum
#

makes sense really cant blame em

#

at this point its an oh well thing

fossil delta
#

Yep. Now I am just hoping they get the game finished before I get too old to even be able to play anymore. 😄 I'm almost 60 as it is.

sonic drum
#

im sure they will XD

#

idk what all is left for them to do after deep north aside a final boss or maybe 1 more biome/area

fossil delta
#

Deep North is the last biome and boss, last I heard.

sonic drum
#

curious how they will end it there; i would think you would defeat the deep north boss then have to fight odin or something like that

#

unless they put the end boss at the end of deep north but that feels a little out of place with how the game has been going

fossil delta
#

Odin is who sent us here, to defeat all these bosses. Don't know why we would fight him.

sonic drum
#

he's always stalking/watching us

azure yacht
#

and...?

sonic drum
#

it always felt like there would be a final challenge to "prove your worth"

azure yacht
#

there will be: Kill the final forsaken

sonic drum
#

and basically odin testing you himself

pliant hatch
#

We're send to Valheim to defeat the Forsaken and to show Odin we're worthy to enter Walhalla.

So it's possible a Valkyrie will show up to pick us up and take us to Walhalla; kinda similar in the way we entered the game.

fossil delta
#

Well, our mission is to defeat all of these bosses. So once we do that, Odin should be happy with us.

azure yacht
#

which i'm pretty sure is all the test needed.

sonic drum
#

i really not saying thats not the case so please dont misunderstand what im saying here lol

#

regardless of how they end im sure ill still be happy with it

fossil delta
#

I haven't really followed the news over the last year, so I am not really aware of any changes they may have announced. I even needed to be reminded about the Bog Witch now existing.

lunar sapphire
#

or are you saying Valhalla is just a bunch of walls? elder_thinking

sonic drum
#

i dont read a lot of the news unless its a major update, i like the little changes they make here and there; its nice to come along changes and just be surprised by them

Maybe he is German? W is V in German.

I just want the monthly update so i can go back to not thinking about it lol. I havent played since august last year and wont play again till this 1.0 patch and im renting a server for my friends and i as soon as it does

Most of the devs are currently on vacation, so we might expect the next word from devs coming in the end of the month at earliest, or skipping July and post during August.

Which boats are accesible in the Black Forest? I know there’s the raft and one other that I have so far

#

Just a quick question - what is the specific trigger which allows the miniboss raids to occur? Is it still handing the chests to hildir or will just killing a miniboss trigger it?

#

Want to do the sealed tower but would rather wait a bit if it would result in raids I can't handle that well just yet

paper marsh
#

Dude I will never get the level up values for skills in valheim. Like spears get more skill on a primary attack than a throw, even though the throw takes way longer. Wood cutting gets more skill when you're hitting a tree AND a creature. Speaers get more skill per hit than any other weapon, even though they have super fast attack speed.

Just seems so random

nocturne wolf
#

Hopefully the combat update does something about it

paper marsh
#

Also with the crafting skill being a thing, is there a chance that you sometimes craft something like a sword, and then it just gives you two of them?

They're actually pretty good and I've enjoyed using them

tacit crystal
shy marlin
#

It was staggerlocking stuff in the plains lol

#

It's no atgeir but the combo of s key out of an attack and then hopping back in with secondary is actually p strong

tacit crystal
#

Yeah, and the secondary is somewhat controllable with jump attacking.

keen raptor

jumping knife lunges go hard

tacit crystal
#

I have entered the swamp in my current run. Not limiting weapons this time and enjoy swapping them for time to time.

keen raptor

now I want to try a weapon roulette run, getting a random weapon to use for every biome

shy marlin

Sounds fun Rocky

keen raptor
shy marlin
#

Nah everyone starts somewhere have fun with what u do

tacit crystal
#

I have just a regular no mead, no power, no sleep and no Harnesk run.

shy marlin
#

No harnesk is a good rule lol

tacit crystal
#

My last run was 2h weapons (excluding bows/xbows and dual wielded) + spear ranged + only armor that grant no ms penalty. That excluded the Harnesk too.

#

Entering Ashlands with Fenris chest and legs plus heavy helmet was tedious at start.

tacit crystal
#

Although spear is pretty great in swamp as you can safely kill leeches with the throw attack. Just pick it up and repeat.

merry pebble
keen raptor
#

hell yeah man use it for whatever

#

I actually got too excited so I started making an html page for it

tacit crystal
shy marlin
#

Rocky 🤞 pierce in swamp

merry pebble
#

Could include also what armor and what food from that biome you will be using

tacit crystal
#

So, weapon type per biome (axes, swords, bows etc) meaning entering and defeating the biome with randomly chosen weapon type and making next random one for next biome etc?

merry pebble
#

I think i will do rolls for specific weapons from each biome and for next biome i will always reroll

tacit crystal
#

Yeah that I was thinking.

merry pebble
#

Same for all food, armor pieces etc

tacit crystal
#

So you get spears for mountain and enter with ancient bark spear but can also craft fang spear, for example.

merry pebble
#

So i would make the wheel for each biome with all individual weapons, not weapon types, meaning that from swamp you may have an iron battle axe and for mountain you get fang spear. You can go to the mountains with battle axe but have to make fang spear once you can

tacit crystal
#

Hmm so you thought of individual weapons instead of weapon types.

#

Good luck getting Abyssal razor. Ragnar_laugh

merry pebble
#

Also rolls for individual armor pieces, fenris legs or Wolf armor legs, fenris coat or Wolf chest, which helm... So you could get mismatched pieces 😄

#

Asi said, random run Rocky

tacit crystal
#

Mistlands/Ashlands mismatched armor pieces. KEKLEO

merry pebble
#

And diet! XD Tbh probably have to roll for a playstyle (mage, melee) there otherwise it would be too many options, but the challenge would be real

I think searching the area you lost it in on foot is the only option afaik.

we're you discovering new areas or harvesting/gathering in already explored location ?

#

There are character backups, if you can find one where you still have your stuff you could restore the back-up and delete the freshest. You could use devcommands to fly around and look for you tomb but with no idea where you died, it could take a while

#

Or use devcommands to spawn new stuff, or start over

I have meads and blackforest food yeah

spare quail

Swamp is a significant step up in difficulty, parrying will be your best friend probably.

nocturne wolf

That doesn't mean parry everything btw especially not with the constant wet debuff

It costs a lot more stamina than other options for avoiding damage

I tried to kill an abomination, didn't go well

I mean, yeah, kind of. My eitr tops off around 300 when I go full eitr. Granted, it regenerates insanely fast, but I simply thought it was a bit odd. Although I guess the lingering version is basically the medium one.

light moat
#

There’s lingering Eitr mead for the Ashlands, right? 🤔

#

I imagine a likely scenario is we could just get Eitr mead in the Deep North, doesn’t necessarily have to be minor>medium>major I would guess

vocal rivet

I don't know why we wouldn't get both.

tacit crystal

There are minor, medium and major for HP, minor and medium for stamina and minor for Eitr, plus lingering for all.

Then there is Tasty which is technically stamina but isn't at the same time.

In the future, if you find trader from the swamps she sells ingredient to one very useful mead that increases your carrying capacity.

Is bronze armor worth making? I have level 3 troll hide armor that has more armor points than bronze and doesn't affect my movement speed. I'd assume level 2 bronze is the same armor points but still affects your movement

I generally recommend making troll instead of bronze. If you already have troll there’s no reason to switch

It depends at your play-style.

If you want to be fast, Troll armor is better. If you prefer to be tanky, bronze armor eventually is better if / when you combine it with a (tower) shield.

But I forgot that I did actually just make root harnesk, so not too bad. Though it had backup from some fulings

Man, those bats are irritating. Fortunately I had my 2 star boar in a building, so they only killed all my 1 star boar.

Not that I even need boar meat anymore. We are on plains food.

Considering running off to the Mountains to get some silver using the Stagbreaker method before fighting Bonemass... just because

#

Frost Resist Mead, Tasty Mead, and Healing Mead would be a good idea for Mountains, yeah?

median ibex
#

(Of course the Frost Resist being necessary at this stage)

#

I imagine I'll want Fire Arrows with my Huntsman Bow

nocturne wolf
tacit crystal
median ibex
#

But I might just make both
I'll flip a coin on which is first

#

Crystal Battleaxe

tacit crystal
#

Frostner even better due to Bonemass being weak against both blunt and frost damage.

median ibex
#

Well yeah, but both weapons seem fun

#

plus, I already flipped the coin, unless I do best out of 3

nocturne wolf
#

One vein should have enough silver for both

median ibex
#

I am playing with 2x Resource Rate due to being in a world with 3 other people, and likely another +1 soon.
So maybe a bit more than just both hugin_freeze

#

(Only recently put it to 2x though; Bronze Age was a slog)

tacit crystal
#

Silver is much easier to mine than copper and even iron tbh.

median ibex
#

Still, I'll be needing a lot of it to help kit out the others

Did anyone suggest nudge mode yet

#

I'd check but the mods lobotomized me

While building in satisfactory you can press h to lock a build without putting it down and use arrow keys to move it slightly in whichever direction then you click and it's built

#

Still has to be a valid spot but lets you be precise

nocturne wolf
#

That's been suggested before NeckThumbsUp

tacit crystal
# median ibex No luck yet..

Not 100% sure of the theory but some have said that you can locate silver easier near where Stone Golems spawn.

The thing I'm sure is that you need to be in high enough mountain that has obsidian and drakes spawning, them all have certain altitude requirement.

#

@tacit crystal So, my meadows gear will be Flint axe, Tower shield, Boar meat, Deer meat and mushrooms.... (For meadows i skip armor)

tacit crystal
median ibex
#

But I think this might be the only one on this mountain.

median ibex
#

Wait... unless that's the nearby Obsidian giving the "Too hard" message

uneven belfry
#

Mountain needs to be high enough to spawn silver

tacit crystal
uneven belfry
#

And silver spawning height starts roughly around (I think same or maybe +10m of what the obsidian spawns at)

median ibex
#

It was the Obsidian :(

uneven belfry
#

And the second condition is - enough space - look for little plateaus above the level where obsidian starts to appear

tacit crystal
merry pebble
#

I will wait with it after Eik, tho meadows are usually so short i might as well do it now

I've cultivated some carrots, I picked them up but now I don't have any seeds. Is there any way to produce seeds?

merry pebble

wdym? I can't cultivate again since I have no seeds

merry pebble
#

Open the cultivator menu 😄 since oyu have carrots now you should be able to plant seed-carrot

strong arch
#

But the game keeps saying I don't have the requirements 😅

merry pebble
#

Do you have carrots in your inventory?

strong arch
#

yes

merry pebble
#

And you see carrot and seed carrot in your cultvator menu?

strong arch

There we go 😄

# tacit crystal Regular 1h swords are boring IMO, I prefer 2h swords tho. Maces are one of my fa...

What do you like about them? Just the blunt damage?

I like that maces get extra stagger on their alt attack and I like the reach on sword alt attack. But using the regular combo it just feels so slow. Feels like I can only rarely get off a full three hit combo after staggering someone. So then I sway more towards knives and spears and flesh rippers because they just get their combo off so much faster so much faster

Please read the replies.

#

I've seen a speedrunner just use campfires instead, if that's what you mean.

median ibex
#

I meant that this conversation started due to someone telling me Frost Resist Mead is "not necessary".

#

Despite the fact I do not yet have gear with inherent Frost Resist.

shy marlin
#

Yea campfires or corpse run stacking

foggy glacier
#

it's true then. You just die a lot.

median ibex
shy marlin
#

If you want a clean experience make sure your path up includes a frost cave you can retreat to (inside frost caves you are only cold)

#

You can also portal out before you die from the freezing ticking dmg and you'll be fine to

median ibex
#

I mean, either way, I have the Meads at this point.

shy marlin
#

So bonfire + near frost cave + portal on hand makes mountains relatively free without any form of frost resist

foggy glacier
#

I think that's the point, @median ibex. He's saying you 'can' survive in the mountains without frost resist, but why bother. Using the included game mechanics makes things easier.

@tacit crystal For black forest i rolled bronze sword, tower shield(f*ck), bronze helmet, bronze cuirass, troll pants and for food queens jam, yellow mushroom and carrot soup

shy marlin

lmao bro got tower shield

I dont mind the bronze 😄 since only one piece will actually slow me down, but i am not gonna use the shield really xD

And sword which any of the mobs don't resist or are weak against.

shy marlin
#

i dunno sword is pretty nice in bf

tacit crystal
#

Trolls would have resisted mace.

#

Then skeletons would have resisted spear/atgeir, but they are more nuisance compared to trolls.

shy marlin
#

Ah word i get ya

steel mica
#

Dont forget you can do a extended power combo for swords

#

so jack of all trades weapon

paper marsh
#

One thing I do like about swords is that they don't split damage between all enemies/walls hit. That's annoying on Axes and maces and such

#

How much is it to keep a server open

paper marsh
proud cypress
#

Me and my friend, I thought it would be a 1 time payment

#

Would it be a new server it would apply to or can it be an existing one I made

paper marsh
#

It can apply to an existing one. You just have to go to your saves, find the world you have, then copy the file over to the server

#

But no its never a 1 time payment

I feel like higher quality arrows like obsidian should need finewood and be faster more accurate and do more damage

We already have something for that called a ||crossbow||

Do you think they will ever add a thing that nerfs raised earth walls

no

You mean like they did with ashlands? 🙂

daring sinew
merry pebble

Then why are you saying stuff like this when you didnt yet gone through the whole game?

daring sinew
shy marlin
merry pebble
#

They can dmg them and eventually destroy them if you are not vigilant 🙂

shy marlin
#

nahhhh

merry pebble
#

So while slight, it is a nerf

shy marlin
#

okay sure it's a VERY small nerf

merry pebble

Also payloads can dmg them i believe, so if you are not carefull... Rocky

I think it’s cool that when getting guck (or ooze, I forget) ||first you realize that the trees they are on are unbreakable, then you realize that you have to nerd pole to get to them, and in the process you have made a safe treehouse in what seems to be the most unsafe Biome.|| 10/10 game design.

Time for the mountains baby

#

Frostnir is the 1st goal

merry pebble
#

Still keep the iron mace ready tho 😉 Frostner is awfull against the troll level enemy in mountains as well as against boss there

sacred bolt
#

I like the swords mechanics a lot

#

hope the silver one isn't too bad

merry pebble
#

It is great actually 😄

sacred bolt
#

But silver I heard isn't as large of a grind as the metals so far?

paper marsh
#

Yeah, Bronze is relatively easy to get plentiful, but kinda tedious to mine

Iron is a bit more dangerous, and a lot more scarce because you need A LOT (it's used later in the game too) and sometimes crypts can be hard to find.

Silver is like everywhere in the mountains and is pretty quick to mine if you use a special technique

merry pebble
sacred bolt
#

Ye mine around the entire vein and then just break the thing in 1 touch

paper marsh
#

How much silver you need kinda depends what weapon you're going for. Fully upgrading some of the silver weapons is REALLY expensive

sacred bolt
#

I plan to get the crafting upgrades, sword, frostnir and 2/3 wolf armor

#

and pick + axe

paper marsh
#

Personally I am a huge fan of the light armor (non-metal armor) found in mountains

sacred bolt
#

Ye fenrir

#

but I will probs get both

paper marsh
#

Can never be too prepared

sacred bolt
#

I grinded 7 hours for iron tier so grinding is not too large of an issue for me

paper marsh
#

Also if you have two armor sets, that's very handy if you need to go retrieve your gear after dying

sacred bolt
#

Okay holy cow you need a lot of this stuff

merry pebble
#

As we were saying~ Rocky

#

What are you making?

sacred bolt
#

I am making the frostnir first

#

I have all the other materials for it so it seems like an easy first step to take

merry pebble
#

Frostner needs total of 120 silver 😄

sacred bolt
#

Yeah but for the non upgraded variant

#

which is still better in dmg than what I have atm

merry pebble
#

For lvl1 only 30 🙂

tacit crystal
#

160 silver and 24 iron for fully upgraded Silver sword btw. cryingsmile

merry pebble
#

Well you dont really need silver for much after mountains 😄 so why the heck not, spend it as much as you want

tacit crystal
#

True, but still hefty amount of metal bars for a weapon. ThinkingTroll

#

Although there is one weapon that requires even more (talking about ||Krom, which needs 120 iron and 80 bronze, total of 200 metal bars||). 😅

merry pebble
#

It is a one heck of a weapon after all XD

tacit crystal
#

True, I prefer 2h swords over 1h honestly. Rocky

merry pebble
#

They really should not have the MTP tho

tacit crystal
#

Having fingers crossed that would be one thing to address in Combat update. 🤞

sacred bolt
#

Oh neat I can make the cape

#

no more need for frost meads

merry pebble
#

You could also make chest piece from either of the mountain armor sets 😉

sacred bolt
#

I will eventually but thats more expensive atm

#

I just want the cape purely for the frost resist

tacit crystal
#

Cape is fine, but I prefer the looks of the next biome's cape.

#

Both chest pieces mentioned above grant frost resistance too.

tacit crystal
# sacred bolt I got only 80 from my 1st vein 😭

Made some calculations what could be crafted with 80 silver and these I'd personally craft first: Frostner or Crystal Battleaxe (30), Wolf chest (20), fully upgraded shield (20), fully upgraded Fang spear (8) and Butcher table cauldron upgrade (2).

paper marsh
#

I like fang spear for mountain. Cheap and probably the best mountain weapon for use in the mountains (other than bow which is OP)

#

Flesh rippers feel good too tho
