I have pretty severe hearing loss (Those Veteran issues). So maybe I should make up for it with head phones. 😄

[merry pebble]

Just play the way you feel comfortable 😄

[fossil delta]

I might. I've been happy just knowing they are near by. Been handling things well enough as is.

I killed my first 2 star soldier solo yesterday. I was so bummed it did not drop a trophy. I felt like I deserved one. 😄

[merry pebble]

Those trophies are rare, since the soldiers themselves are rare. I had most trouble with golems i think xD my personal record was something like 40 killed golems without trophy

[vocal rivet]

Maybe a 2* mob should always drop a trophy?

[merry pebble]

That would be a nice change imo 🙂
-# And i think that for some time i even believed they did xD

[fossil delta]

Yeah, Golem trophies do feel pretty rare, and I have killed a lot of them. We are doing well on Mistlands trophies though. We even have 5 soldier trophies. 10 Gjall, nearly a full stack of tics, and not sure on Seekers. Around 10.

[merry pebble]

Wow, 5 soldier trophies is quite a lot 👀

[fossil delta]

Pretty sure we have ran into more this run. Especially in the dungeons.

3 in just one room.

[supple holly]

thanks for the tip for the video ...is mainly windows focussed while I am on Linux (kubuntu 24.04 to be exact), but will try some of the non windows tips

just don't forget your poison resist potion like I did or you wake up in your bed thinking what just happened?...again like I did 😉

[fossil delta]

Against Bonemass? For sure. 😄 😄

My wife and I made him real easy this time. We went into the mountains first, used our experience to find silver (No hammers). Frostner makes him go down so fast...

[tacit crystal]

At one point I went on tens of infested mines in my current main world and I never found more of the soldier trophies inside those even when some had more than 1 soldier inside lol.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, its still a random drop, so we have had better luck this time.

Especially on tics.

The gjall have been particularly shocking. Almost a trophy every time.

[supple holly]

iron mace was easy enough for me...took me a 10 minutes ...stamina and poison resist is key and Eikethyr power for the 1st 5 minutes..

[blazing orchid]

Thanks for the tip!

[nocturne wolf]

If you have poison resist and iron armor you don’t need to move anywhere during the fight

[blazing orchid]

I can find silver without the wishbone??

[fossil delta]

Yeah, that works well, just its down to a few minutes with Frostner.

[merry pebble]

Yes but it is not intended 🙂

[fossil delta]

Yeah, there is the sledge hammer method, or you can just "guess", like we did. We have played so much we can make a good guess as to where they are.

[blazing orchid]

So iron armor is the recommended for him? I have the set but I’m still nervous he’s gonna bonk the shit out of me lmfao

[supple holly]

if you're lucky to find a silver vein sticking out somewhere...yes..

[nocturne wolf]

Root armor will work well but the reason I suggested iron armor for not moving is because it will reduce the damage from the poison aoe so you can stay inside it longer

[blazing orchid]

Mmk.. Any recommended weapon?

[nocturne wolf]

He resists pierce and slash damage but is weak to blunt so an iron mace is much better than anything else

[supple holly]

mace for sure...

[fossil delta]

Iron mace is probably the best option.

[nocturne wolf]

The iron mace also helps a lot for an enemy in mountains

[fossil delta]

I love the maces all the way through the plains. Then I switch to sword.

[supple holly]

especially 2nd attach on those creepy stone thingies..

[steel mica]

the fact you can stunlock an enemy in the mountain it with just quality one iron gear is just crazy

im so zoned out

[fossil delta]

Golems?

[nocturne wolf]

Mace secondary is one of my favourite attacks

[fossil delta]

Their fixing the height/elevation combat problem will make golems so much easier to take down.

[nocturne wolf]

I’ve never had trouble hitting golems since they’re so tall

[zinc crypt]

i like the update where the fix the cross hair much easier to see the sword the the white x

[fossil delta]

You still "miss" when they are higher than you.

[zinc crypt]

than the white x

[fossil delta]

It gets very irritating. To me, anyways.

[nocturne wolf]

I’ve never been too irritated by it. Learn to attack at the correct height instead of blaming the game.

[fossil delta]

I'lll blame the game because that is why its even a issue in the first place.

[nocturne wolf]

Generally being below an enemy isn't a position you want to be in since the timing for jumping their attacks will become more precise or you won't even be able to get high enough, but I guess that doesn't apply to golems because their attacks are too tall anyway

[tacit crystal]

I'm quite excited what else changes we might be getting aside with the slope combat improvement.

[nocturne wolf]

I hope they actually show us some of the combat changes soon, all we've seen of the update is a new build piece and armor set.

And for slope combat we've just had some text, we haven't seen how it's been changed

[queen olive]

anyone know if you can still launch yourself with a catapult? it doesnt seem to work for me

[tacit crystal]

Should be able to.

[queen olive]

itll launch me in the air like 20 feet and then im back to gliding down normally

[tacit crystal]

You must not move at all.

[queen olive]

ohhhhh

[tacit crystal]

Only when you want to stop you move a bit.

And by moving I mean using WASD keys.

[queen olive]

okay ima try it again thanks 👍

[shy marlin]

[brisk osprey]

why couldnt they add a desert biome ☹️

[plush umbra]

they just didn't want to i guess

-# i for one am very happy to have a video game without a stinky desert

[vocal rivet]

Plains is flat, yellow and dry. Works for me.

[merry pebble]

I feel you would not like the Dune game

[brisk osprey]

lol i know, i was just hoping for like 1 or 2 more, and desert was an 'easy' option

[nocturne wolf]

Is ashlands not close enough?

[merry pebble]

Well, we have known the names of biomes for pretty long time, other than plains nothing really sounds "desert-ty" 🤔

[vocal rivet]

I wouldn't say Ashlands is remotely desert like.

[brisk osprey]

thats more like hell like than desert

[pliant hatch]

We got Queens Jam. Isn't that dessert-y enough?

[blazing orchid]

Ashlands is by far better than any desert would be.

Hellish landscapes are kickass! 😩

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, best place to hack and slash.

[chrome badge]

I was so pleasantly surprised with Ashlands. I remember the pre-Ashlands generation, it looked terrible.

[plush umbra]

i like neither deserts nor hellish landscapes, my enjoyment scale of environments usually runs perfectly parallel to their temperature, but ashlands were unique enough that i liked the vibe too~

[lost fiber]

I hate Ashland biome

[plush umbra]

huge bonus points for some sweet and abundant ruins

[chrome badge]

I've run into a few spaces with nothing around, the temples feel serene coated with berries and goodies.

[plush umbra]

i love "natural" environments that leave you unsure about how much of them really is natural - ruins that bleed into the terrain and seem to be part of one massive city rather than smaller, scattered outposts or something.
gen 2-4 monster hunter did a lotta places like that

[vale holly]

Deep North when?

[shy marlin]

Prolly not in 2025

[pliant hatch]

When it's ready and cold enough to show us lots of snow

[torpid garnet]

My favorite fictional biome is Wyoming

[lost fiber]

I love mountain and Mistlands

[blazing orchid]

Aight got my iron mace and full iron gear, and my 10 poison resist.. lets hope for the best

[pliant hatch]

I'm sure you can do it.

[blazing orchid]

Attempt one; died five seconds in lol

[light moat]

Make sure you leave some of your poison resist at base, that way you can use it before engaging with Bonemass

[blazing orchid]

Yeah this ain't working

I may need assistance with him if anyone's down to join and help me rq

[light moat]

What’s your diet? Are you playing on regular difficulty?

[blazing orchid]

I’ve got wolf meat, neck tail and boar jerky right now

[merry pebble]

Did you find turnips? 🤔

[blazing orchid]

I have turnip seeds yeah. Are they better?

[pliant hatch]

Yup, they are.

[merry pebble]

Oh yes, and once you grow turnips from them you can upgrade cauldron for even better food 😄

[pliant hatch]

Also, if you have killed Draugr, they should help you with better food. But the turnip will be needed to build an upgrade to your cauldron first.

[blazing orchid]

Done! Are you recommending the black soup?

[light moat]

And in case you don’t carrots, make sure you get those too

[merry pebble]

I recommend farming more turnips and getting turnip soup, sausages and black soup 😄

Also remember to plant every new thing you can and check what it unlocks 🙂 food is one of, if not the most important stat in the game.

[light moat]

Your diet is your best armor!

[shy marlin]

Stam is the best hp 😏

[light moat]

I definitely don’t disagree 👀

[blazing orchid]

Thank you! You are always so lovely and helpful ❤️

[light moat]

Asatru is ok

[blazing orchid]

I have also enlisted my best friends help lmfao when he gets home so I'll stock up on our food in the meantime.

[nocturne wolf]

You should never eat neck tails

[blazing orchid]

Ohh why

[pliant hatch]

Is it OK to use them as a Necklace? 🤔

[dark coyote]

maybe when you first start a character

[nocturne wolf]

Deer and boar meat are both better and also don’t require you to kill any necks

You’re choosing to kill necks for worse food, why

[shy marlin]

Some people just want to watch the world burn

[dark coyote]

they should have made the 2 star neck red, would be hilarious

[light moat]

Better to slaughter as many necks as possible, and use their tails for charcoal

[nocturne wolf]

Doggs are much easier to farm

[shy marlin]

Good luck farming serpent scales

[steel mica]

whats the ratio for green science?

wait CRAP WRONG SERVER

[light moat]

Lol I’ve made that mistake a couple times

[chrome badge]

Don't kill necks, but you should honor their life by eating them if they're struck down by something else.

[torpid garnet]

New plan: use only neck charcoal to smelt a bronze sword

[shy marlin]

Babe wake up new challenge run just dropped

[plush umbra]

Rawr!

[plush umbra]

Hey you, you’re finally awake. There’s a settlement that needs your help, here I’ll make it on your map

[blazing orchid]

Helloo. So me and my friend tried Bonemass and were not able to beat him so if anyone's wiling to briefly join my server to help I'ld appreciate it

[simple folio]

just built my first drakkar, that thing's huge

[chrome badge]

A little tip, try to spot land along the edges of the ashlands before sailing into it, I lost my first drakkar just trying to find some land.

[simple folio]

dang, thanks

[fossil delta]

Wrapped up today with 21 Seeker trophies (Total, not just today) and 16 extra cores. I don't know if we will ever need to use all of our seeker meat. 😄

Neither one of us died today, so a good day.

[nimble hazel]

does anyone wanna play together ?

[fierce shuttle]

@ sharky, wana run together?

[rain flare]

Nice
Yeah you will never use all of that seeker meat
Just turn it into coal

Cook it up

Don’t obliterate it 😅

[exotic pumice]

Is it just me or does the Dead Raiser feel totally outclassed by the TrollStav, to the point where sadly I don't carry my Dead Raiser with me anymore, because they die too quickly in the Ashlands compared to a Trollstav summon?

[rain flare]

Sorry to say but that is a skill issue 😅

Your Skellie summons become much stronger with a high blood magic skill
And of course you need to use magic shield on them for the best results

Having 4 bubbled skellies that draw aggro away from you and can one-shot twitchers is much easier to use than 2 raging trolls that try to kill anything that happens to walk to close 😂

[steel mica]

or keep for future mistland feast recipes

[rain flare]

True - but you’ll never run out of big meat I’m afraid 😂

[steel mica]

Your entire first run through mistlands should be enough if not more than enough to carry you through ashlands lol

because you fight seekers quite often so your gonna have alot of seeker meat

The rest I just throw away or when I accidentally take some back home I deliver it to thor for them to try

[viscid osprey]

is ashlands performance bad for everyone or just me?

[shy marlin]

Yea it’s not the greatest

[brazen linden]

If you have a mid to low end client, and have many settings in the High end of the spectrum, you'll notice a difference in Ashland.

[shy marlin]

There’s also zero reason for there to be 200+ audio streams going on while in morgen caves

[brazen linden]

True. The devs are aware of this, and we hope for an adjustment in next update

[viscid osprey]

ok we kinda got decent PCs and hosted the server on gportal - the mobs just teleporting around

[brazen linden]

Multiplayer?? That even a bigger problem. The client that enter a world cell first, does most of the game-calculations for all the players in the same cell. So if that player has mid-to low end hardware in client and/or network, or wrong settings in client and/or network, you will all have low performance. Even if you have your NASA computer and gPortal uses Quantum computing.

[viscid osprey]

aah okay

[near furnace]

Problem is usually quality of network performance. not speed, nor hardware

[brazen linden]

If network hardware hasn't enabled Smart Queuing, it might be causing Bufferbloat, and might resulting in packet drops.

[calm onyx]

why are knives so satisfying

[tacit crystal]

They're fast and clean.

[rain flare]

Slice and dice! 🤩 ⚔️

[calm onyx]

the backstab bonus is insane it's honestly my favorite weapon since I adore the playstyle of fast short range weapons

[pseudo sierra]

What's a good DMG weapon

[tacit crystal]

Any weapon, really. What do you like to use?

[pseudo sierra]

Maybe spear or sword

[calm onyx]

if you wanna kick back and not care too much, honestly just run atgeirs

they stagger almost anything

[tacit crystal]

Those are solid, but also note that some mobs have resistances against certain damage types so having different weapon types to cover different damage types (blunt, pierce and slash) is good idea.

[pseudo sierra]

Is there anyway someone can give me a good spear or sword?

[calm onyx]

i mean you CAN cheat them in via devcommands

[tacit crystal]

Slash is solid through the whole game as there are not many resistant against it but also not many are weak against it.
Blunt and pierce have more variance for some more enemies weak against them but also resistant.

[pseudo sierra]

I can't have mod I'm on Xbox I think

[tacit crystal]

You can get your first sword when you acquire bronze.

Before that, flint spear is solid choice against most mobs in meadows and black forest.

[vagrant crystal]

has the developers said anything about a possible switch 2 version? I'd sell my family for that shit

[warm sandal]

I hope there will be anotherr News Episode soon. All july no word because they have deserved their vacations but I am so curious. Meanwhile going to record some more Episodes and try to get my mind of being curious 😄

[brazen linden]

No

[tardy cobalt]

thats so real. i almost wanted a steam deck over the switch just for this game alone.

[torpid coral]

Thanks for that info! That explains quite a lot of rather unnecessary deaths in our multiplayer playthroughs.

[steep ginkgo]

when the update 1.0 comes out, are they still going to be adding new biomes and stuff or is the next update the last before just patches?

[merry pebble]

No new biomes after 1.0 no. Some smaller patches or additions are not off the table tho as far as we know.

[brazen linden]

The game is complete at 1.0. No talk about content updates, or DLC's.

[steep ginkgo]

thats what was worrying me, i was hoping for more biomes, but i understand not all games keep going forever lol

[merry pebble]

well, we have known that Deep North will be the final biome for more than 4 years now i believe 😄

[steep ginkgo]

i just started :/ i was full of hope still

[brazen linden]

It was always planned for 8 biomes

[steep ginkgo]

Draugr in my world act like they are nervous to come up and talk to me :/ one just snuck up behind me and i turnt around and saw him just standing next to the tree behind me and the RAN away lol

[solid fossil]

Hello people, good morning from here ✌️

Do ya'll by any chance have any cool seeds that you would like to recommend?

[light moat]

I just got this joke 😂

[tulip patrol]

No july 'words from the devs' 😔

[brazen linden]

Of course not, it well known why not.

[tulip patrol]

if youre going to be a condescending prick, youre getting ignored

[shy marlin]

devs had a vaca hopefully we get an update this month 🤙

[tacit crystal]

Kinda sneak peak from Valheim Instagram... Finally we get the ||stache||??

[shy marlin]

aggressively logs into instagram

THE STACHE

[vocal rivet]

Where was the condescension?

[light moat]

No Instagram, no stache for me 😭

[shy marlin]

#screenshots message There u go

[light moat]

Just saw that, thanks!

Now I can finally cosplay as my dad in Valheim, huge news

[tacit crystal]

Ps. Hairstyle is already in game, the ||stache|| is new.

[shy marlin]

Ye just didn't wanna give too much spoil in text

[tacit crystal]

Fair enough.

[shy marlin]

I haven't closely examined the eitr weave set, are the things on his hands just part of the armor or is that something new

[tacit crystal]

It looks like Eitr-weave.

It's less feathery on shoulders without the Feather cape too.

[shy marlin]

checked the wiki yea eitr weave set has the little bracers i was suspicious of

[merry pebble]

Yep it is eitr weave, checked it earlier today in game 😄

[versed comet]

I just died to a 2 stars seeker soldier after being pushed in a wall getting stuck, feels bad. I've been running around in circles using my demolisher for like 15 minutes lol.

[tacit crystal]

Yeah they tanky.

[fossil delta]

2 star seekers are not a push over, either. Ran into one of those yesterday.

[fossil delta]

#1202740443352137838

[tacit crystal]

They look like they're on serious roids.

[fossil delta]

All those colors they have...

[jolly hornet]

Hi

[jolly hornet]

How do I put a bonfire inside my house?

[merry pebble]

With difficulty 😄 (but if you mean strictly placing then it need either ground or stone floor)

[jolly hornet]

Stone floor? Ok

I don't think I have stone floors yet

[merry pebble]

You can just put it on bare ground

[jolly hornet]

Yeah but my house is elevated

I can't send pictures here 😭

[merry pebble]

If its not by much then you can raise ground using hoe

[merry pebble]

#screenshots 😉

[jolly hornet]

Oh yeah

[fossil delta]

Yeah, I have done that. Not for the bonfires, but for a camp fire. but it can be done.

[jolly hornet]

Wait, is it called campfire or bonfire? Is there 2 different items?

Because in my language it is the same

[merry pebble]

Campfire is the one that costs 5 stone and 2 wood

[plush umbra]

campfire is small, bonfire is huge

[jolly hornet]

So it's a campfire

[merry pebble]

Yep 🙂
If it was a bonfire it would be very difficult to incorporate it to inside of building 😄

[fossil delta]

That sounds much better, I was wondering why you would want the bonfire in your home. 😄

[jolly hornet]

It's just that I didn't knew what it was, in my language we just call it "fogueira" doesn't matter the size

[tacit crystal]

Bonfire doesn't get extinquished by rainy weather tho.

[fossil delta]

Inside your home? You have other issues if its raining inside your house.

[merry pebble]

That would not be a problem on inside of your house 😄

[tacit crystal]

No, not me.

[jolly hornet]

Oh damn it #screenshots

[tacit crystal]

If someone want to leave hole on roof.

[jolly hornet]

I want 😈

[tacit crystal]

Campfire needs cover tho.

You need mats from black forest and swamp to get the recipe for bigger bonfire.

[jolly hornet]

I covered it but dig a hole to the side

It's like a chimney

[fossil delta]

Have you beat Eikthyr yet?

The deer boss?

[jolly hornet]

No

[fossil delta]

Hmmmm... Well hopeully the hoe can flatten that well enough for you to put the fire. It should.

[jolly hornet]

I only played for about 3 hours and did basically nothing but build my tiny house

[jolly hornet]

Yeah I fixed it

[fossil delta]

Yeah, take this game slow. You only get to play it as a new player once. So take your time, enjoy it.

[jolly hornet]

Ok 😄

[fossil delta]

A lot of us wish we had done so.

[jolly hornet]

I feel you guys, it happened to me with Zomboid

I'm not any pro but I lost the feeling of playing for the first time watching tutorials and rushing

[fossil delta]

Lets see, some typical advice. Pick up everything, build everything at least once, and... listen to the bird for its clues.

[jolly hornet]

Did all that

[fossil delta]

Then you should do just fine.

[jolly hornet]

:)

This community is perfect, everyone helps each other

[fossil delta]

Yeah, we have occasional problem people, but its a very good group, over all.

[jolly hornet]

I'm trying to get more leather but I can't find more boars 😭 I know they spawn near where they first spawned, but there aren't any left

[fossil delta]

If you ever want to play this with others, check out #1024264966712340510 read the rules pinned at the top of each channel you look at.

[merry pebble]

There is no rule making them spawn where they were previously tho

[fossil delta]

You really want deer too. Try sneaking with a knife, or the spear.

[jolly hornet]

Kk

[fossil delta]

They do strongly tend to do that, though.

I have boar spawning in the same areas around my base almost daily.

Same for deer.

[merry pebble]

Well if area had boars spawn before they can spawn around there again 🙂 but not to a level that "this" particular spot always has boar at this and that time

[fossil delta]

Thats true, but its rather reliable for them to appear in the same areas.

Like I said, nearly every game day around my base. For over 400 game days. So pretty reliably.

[jolly hornet]

400 DAYS 😱

[fossil delta]

We are over 500 now, but my main base has been where it is for over 400 of them.

If you want total hours played, I am over 4500. Still far behind people like Edna...

She is approaching 8,000, but she also hosts her own servers, so that is a bit misleading.

[near furnace]

nice

[fossil delta]

It has been, yeah. Deer, boar, neck, fish. The BF pretty much next door. Been staying supplied rather easily.

[covert iris]

So I found a swamp temple (needs the swamp key, has the green torch near it) but it seems like the bottom is underwater..

Any idea how to get around that? Is this normal? Or should I just leave this and look for another one?

[fossil delta]

Its why you need to beat the Elder, but there is a cheat.

They will all be locked.

You can find iron in the mud, but that is few and far between, and only nets you up to 9 pieces, with luck.

[west mica]

TIL attached ticks come with you through the portal lol

[strong stirrup]

Nah thats insane

Ticks are so insanely annoying

[fossil delta]

They've come with you through portals? Was that on a standard game setting?

[nocturne wolf]

World modifiers don’t affect it.

[fossil delta]

I've never had anything come through a portal with me, so just wondering how that is even possible.

[nocturne wolf]

Ticks don’t detach when you go through a portal

[fossil delta]

I guess I just have always managed to kill them first. It is one of the reasons I carry a sledge. 😄

[strong stirrup]

A sledge huh

Did I ever buy that flesh for the aoe weapons

[fossil delta]

I don't think you need that for the Mistlands sledge. But the iron, yeah.

[strong stirrup]

Its used for 2 things iirc

[tacit crystal]

There is iron sledge in swamp era, yes. It requires Ymir flesh from Haldor.
It has quite cool crafting recipe.

[fossil delta]

The Iron Sledge and Frostner, iirc.

[tacit crystal]

The sledge from Mistlands doesn't require any of it.

[strong stirrup]

Swamp era? We missed out on that completely

Would have maybe been fun against bonemass

[tacit crystal]

You might not have gotten draugr elite trophy?

[fossil delta]

The sledges make crypts, tombs, mines much easier to get through. Oh, and the caves.

[strong stirrup]

We do have those

Just never bought ymir flesh

We actually have an elite on the wall for some reason

[tacit crystal]

Okay. Well you might have the recipe already.

[fossil delta]

They are actually rare. Think we have 4. We've killed a LOT of elites.

[strong stirrup]

Never saw it 🤷‍♂️

[fossil delta]

You have to buy the flesh to get the recipe. I think. Not a specific fact I have memorized.

[strong stirrup]

Probably

[languid mauve]

YO

this game is awsome

but the 10 second cooldown is painfully slow

[strong stirrup]

The slowmode? Yeah you get used to it, but this server is in no way active enough to warrant one

[languid mauve]

lol

i joined to see any further updates is that a feature?

[strong stirrup]

I don't think I quite understood

[merry pebble]

You got the roles for updates so you will be pinged once there is something in #news , #valheim-patchnotes or #public-test-patchnotes 😄

[strong stirrup]

No access yippee

[merry pebble]

I linked the channel for public testing 🙂 you can see it only if you get the role for it from id:customize

[tacit crystal]

What Asatru said, but warning as you might then get spoiled before the initial update if you participate in public testing.

[strong stirrup]

Tbh I don't neccesarily care about spoilers

So public tester it is

[tacit crystal]

Then you'll be good. 👍

[coral pendant]

dumb question. can tamed boars and wolves still be feed and breed in the same enclosed area?

[near furnace]

yes

tamed is the same faction

[coral pendant]

got it, i didnt know if the boars would still feed when their remains are on the ground for the wolves to eat lol

[light moat]

#building-screenshots message @smoky quarry this is really cool! Looks like something you would stumble upon while exploring

[fossil delta]

Having raised real "boar", they will eat anything, and not be bothered by pretty much anything. 😄

[shy marlin]

🧙‍♀️ ⌛ 🤝

[woven oasis]

Looking to join 24 hour server now if possible? 🙂

[merry pebble]

Look no further than #1024264966712340510 😄

[raw token]

@merry pebble I don't want to spoil my adventure but thought I'd let you check out my seed if you were so inclined, no spoilers though 🙂 nQSdsBW5fm

[merry pebble]

Ooh, ok, where are you in progression btw, just so i know?

All and all i would say pretty good seed 😄 i noticed one kinda annoying thing but thats pretty much it.

[raw token]

Uh, well we kind of got out of order, my buddy slipped into the plains before we tackled the mountains, so we're mid-way on both of those biomes with a good chuck of the mats. We've killed Bonemass on his world but I want to shore up defenses on mine before we do that. Only returned one chest to T-Shirt so far, from a frost cave down by south Elder spawn.

I've mostly headed E-N-E, and as you can see, the swamps have not been crypt friendly in that direction - especially since my starting continent was ALL meadows/forest.

[merry pebble]

With some tiny little mountains 😄
To the crypt situation, i must say that you were really unlucky with that direction xD

[raw token]

Well when I went sailing looking for swamps that's where the Traders all spawned, so I that's where I kept my compass pointed, and then Bonemass was over there, then Moder - I followed the winds of fate 😉

Hey, just got my first Fenring trophy 🙂

Got nice little hunting spot near my base (I moved it up one island to the north), can get all the mobs, so doin' some night hunting on the mountian nearby.

Stoopid golem smashed all my Fir saprolings though - I plant em to use as a noise maker to attract the baddies lol

[merry pebble]

That little rascal xD

[trail crypt]

Guys i csnt find mointain caves

I even used the map generator and i cant find it

[merry pebble]

It is not on the location the generator provided?

[trail crypt]

It is

But i went there and i found nothing

[merry pebble]

So the cave isnt there...

[trail crypt]

I just found it🤣

[merry pebble]

Ah xD good then

[trail crypt]

I play the game with the lowest setting, it was camouflaged lol

Playing with the old pc with no gpu thats why

[merry pebble]

Well it could have been possible for the generator to be wrong, but your world would have to be made and played on before the Bog Witch update last year 🙂

[azure fractal]

I'm so excited for the legendary return of the pointy hat! 💯🎃

[light moat]

At first I was confused, because I thought it was so far away. Then I realized it’s right around the corner 😂

[trail crypt]

guys i just installed a mod, how do i activate it

[raw token]

Someone in #mods-issues can probably help with that

[trail crypt]

ok ty

[raw token]

Carts when you want to use them: "Not in the proper position" - "Not in the proper position" - "Not in the proper position"

Be me using them for quick wood/stone dump storage: Pick the damn thing up immediately instead of placing stacks.

[shy marlin]

Is the bog witch some sort of greydwarf?

Never actually analyzed what type of creature she is

[merry pebble]

I dont think we got there confirmed anywhere, but i would say yes

[shy marlin]

aight

[merry pebble]

She also has one as a friend 😄

[shy marlin]

yea true

Kinda interesting implications then

Assuming she was a greydwarf shaman that found her own way doing something idk, but she's still a greydwarf, and greydwarves are like murderers / general bad people

ig the viking doesn't care about character when she's selling good stuff

[merry pebble]

And she is not hostile or anything either 😄

[trim gyro]

The difference between a viking and a murderer is the viking dedicates the blood they spill to Odin. I am sure the simple fuling famers we slaughter have a different perspective on who the generally bad people are.

[merry pebble]

Also big difference between murderers and those who were sent to Valheim (i will refer to as vikings) is that vikings had their memory practically erased and are starting with clean slate essentially 😄

[fossil delta]

We are literally doing as Odin commands. So we are "covered".

The Fulings serve Yag, and never even try to just talk. So killing them doesn't bother me.

[light moat]

Headcannon that the bog witch is from a piece of Yggdrasil, similar to the Elder 🤔

[fossil delta]

I can go with that.

[plush umbra]

-# i swear by her being an abomination based on texturing, anatomy and sound design, but also think greydwarfs and abominations are probably very close concepts to each other

[light moat]

For me, the eyes make me think she’s more greydwarvish, but I can see where you come to that conclusion 👀

[plush umbra]

i just imagine regular abominations are too underdeveloped to have grown into a more human shape

[shy marlin]

maybe the bog witch (originally greydwarf) studied the aboms and drank a potion that mutated herself or something idk

[plush umbra]

hate when that happens

[shy marlin]

Lost in the sauce 😢

[plush umbra]

if she's a greydwarf though, we're still assuming they even can transcend their mindless nature described by the ever so rare greydwarf runestone

-# then again who's to say that narrator is a reliable one, or that abominations have an easier time developing intelligence from nothing (...at least i'd hope nothing, can't be certain the trees aren't judging me) i guess that one just "feels" more natural of a progression to me personally

[light moat]

That’s a good point too!

[plush umbra]

the only thing I'm pretty sure of is that the design takes from aboms, which i guess doesn't mean much in canon because i would think a greydwarf formed in swamp soil would look pretty different from a forest one 😅
fewer rocks, different wood, etc

[chrome badge]

Hahaha, my new head canon is that The Bog Witch was part of the race that carved Valheim's runestones, and discovered that the Greydwarves are born of empty vessels of rock/wood with the souls of murderers/sinners. Before dying she crafted herself a new body and buried her apprentice alive before ending herself under her makeshift body.

They both now toil in her hut, continuing with witchcraft forever. 🙂

[fossil delta]

I like it. I'll adopt it until the devs give us an official story.

[fervent dust]

So I had just got done with Fader. And the funny thing about our base. somehow got the convenience of being directly in the center of all bosses

We found bog witch and trader on day 13 in game

[steel mica]

Our character doesnt care because she sells the "good stuff" in purest and finest powder

[river forge]

Why the fecking heck does valheim lag so much when I am near a few players?

I can play other games with multiplayer and it doesn't kick me all the way out the server

I thought a dedicated server would eliminate that from happening, I can understand if it is hosted on some guy's pc

[brazen linden]

The client that enter a world cell first, does most of the game-calculations for all the players in the same cell. So if that player has mid-to low end hardware in client and/or network, or wrong settings in client and/or network, you will all have low performance. Even if you have your NASA computer.

[river forge]

💀

Seems bass ackwards

[brazen linden]

Doesn't matter if you play on shared world, or on dedicated server

[river forge]

Designed by satan?

[brazen linden]

Nope. Designed to be a solo game

[river forge]

Why wouldn't they have the dedicated server do the hard work

So it's a single player game with multiplayer as an afterthought

[merry pebble]

The runestones were carved by vikings who were in Valheim before us tho 😄

[brazen linden]

It's in early access still.

[vocal rivet]

The networking won't change though.

[brazen linden]

True. But much can be cut/scraped before 1.0 release. Like the support for Xbox One

Or change the player-cap from 10 to 4 players on same seed. Or cap it to 30 fps

[strong stirrup]

Cap physics to 30 fps?

[raw token]

The saga that unfolded tonight during my acquisition of a breeding pair of wolves was unbelievably epic. I am quite proud and satisfied to have, during the maneuvers to trap the 2nd wolf, I managed to trap 3 at a time - ending up with 4 at the conclusion with which to begin my pack. No stars at this point despite their having come along for the ride.

[brazen linden]

Cap the FPS to 30 frames, would for sure make the game more "stable" and "better" for many on mid to low end hardware.

[strong stirrup]

oh ewww

[brazen linden]

It's my point of view, mind you. Not the official stance of IronGate

[strong stirrup]

No but locking fps to 30 ruins the experience completely

I could never play a game that has its fps locked to 30

And mid end hardware runs Valheim with ease

Thats why its good that you can make it capped to whatever

[noble spruce]

I’m having issues finding pigs and deer is there any way you spawn them I just started

[strong stirrup]

Boars are anywhere in meadows deer are meadows forests and black forest

And yes you can spawn them in using console commands but don't

[brazen linden]

Low, but stable fps are better then high and un-stable for many players. 54% of Steam users are still on 1080p resolution. So it's only logical that "for all to have the best experiences" on a game that will not re-do its networking code, or are limited by its engine (unity), things needs to be cap'ed downwards.

[strong stirrup]

Play the game as its meant to be played first

[strong stirrup]

Thats why we have the adjustable fps cap, and I would never play valheim if it was a hard cap to 30 fps

[brazen linden]

But, when it comes to multiplayer, your settings might affect others you play with.

[strong stirrup]

I mean seeing how it works yes

Its bad the way they made it

[brazen linden]

And if you have a NASA computer, and you play with someone on a potato, you will have a bad time

[strong stirrup]

Only if they go first

[brazen linden]

True

[strong stirrup]

And that could be fixed by making the calculations be different

Like making the more powerful pc do the calculations or the host purely

[brazen linden]

But that would be changing the network code, and IronGate has stated they will not focus on that

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[brazen linden]

So when correcting the code aren't an option, cap'ing down are the only logical steps.

IF giving a better experiences for all player, that is.

[strong stirrup]

Yeah, but making the physics run at lower fps could fix it without absolutely ruining the experience

[noble spruce]

Ok

[brazen linden]

Passive mobs respawn after a few ingame days, so mark the place on the map, so you know where to hunt.

[noble spruce]

Okay good to know

[nocturne wolf]

They don't respawn in the same place

[brazen linden]

How would you do that?

[nocturne wolf]

Only a small amount of creatures have set spawn points, such as growths

[strong stirrup]

By making the physics calculations run at a lower fps so less calculations per second could help boost performance

[brazen linden]

Strange. It does in my game. Even built a hunting tower.

[plush umbra]

(which is a matter of the location, rather than the creature, since fixed spawners are only used in points of interests like ruins or tar pits)

-# (and 95% of said spawners are one-time only)

[noble spruce]

I’m just trying to make armor before I fight the deer guy I’ve never fought him and I’m worried it’ll be hard

[strong stirrup]

A couple of tips: bows are a good way to hit him without taking a lot of damage

And leather armor is enough

And learn his attack patterns so you can block with a shield when hea attacks

[nocturne wolf]

There's a regular enemy in the next biome stronger than this boss, he is very weak for his point in progression

[strong stirrup]

[brazen linden]

I have deer, boars and necks spawning regularly outside my base, just outside the workbench radius.

[plush umbra]

because that's meadows

they spawn randomly anywhere around you where they can

and pretty frequently at that, so it's bound to see some repeat locations

[noble spruce]

Ok ty

[nocturne wolf]

You can roll to avoid damage from most attacks, which will help if you want to use a ranged weapon against Eikthyr

[noble spruce]

Okay

[brazen linden]

We are talking about Meadows. My experiences with the game, is that I can return to the same spots over and over, to find the same animals there.

[plush umbra]

that myth's been around for a while and i've dedicated like half my time here to disproving it 😅
RNG just be like that

[brazen linden]

So what's your proof?

[knotty estuary]

there are boar stones and what not.

[nocturne wolf]

The runestones only have one-time spawn points

[brazen linden]

If you kill those boars, they will not respawn

[nocturne wolf]

Just like any other boar

[knotty estuary]

didnt know

[plush umbra]

1. there are invisible spawner objects in the game, many of them, both respawning and non-respawning. they are exclusively used in PoIs and mass-deleting everything around you doesn't stop enemies from randomly spawning
2. you can use ESP to visualize the zone spawners, which are all placed at the center of each zone, obviously not in the exact spot that enemies spawn
3. i've spent actual hours tracking the exact spawn locations of stone golems on mountains (stone golems are a good test subject since they don't move unless you engage them in combat, so you can see precisely where they spawned without speculating) and while there were some clusters (particularly around steep terrain, since that limits the amount of valid spawn locations), not even 2 among several hundreds of spawns were even within a meter of each other.

-# 1.2. respawning spawners are put on hold by spawnproofing, their cooldown keeps ticking down even if they're in spawnproofed territory but they won't spawn their enemy until spawnproofing is removed, at which point they'll immediately spawn their enemy. this doesn't happen with randomly spawned enemies.
-# 1.3. if there were fixed spawners in the wild, they'd have to be able to adapt to their valid locations being blocked, and if the enemies spawn within a radius rather than a fixed little point, why would you even make fixed spawners that are randomly placed in the wild instead of randomly checking for valid locations around you if that already needs to be done in real time anyway, that just seems like an unnecessarily vulnerable system that has no benefits over random spawning

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_zones the wiki has all the details on rules of random spawning, datamined from the game

[brazen linden]

So the reason for my Hunting tower is working, is the range and line of sight I have from it. Nice.

[plush umbra]

should also mention that meadows in particular limit their areas for deer further than most other entities because they can only spawn in areas that are considered by the game to be forest, which is determined on world generation and not affected by the actual trees in that area, so if you cut down a forest, you're gonna have a lotta deer just standing around confused haha

[strong stirrup]

Mhm

I now and then find a bunch of deer in the middle of our tree farm that was a forest

[chrome badge]

I don't see where I said anything to contradict that 😅

[raw token]

Trapped/taming a 1* wolf 😁 , I'll find that 2* eventually

[silver spoke]

is there a roadmap for updates?

[tacit crystal]

No, roadmap has not been the thing since 2021.

[silver spoke]

sad

[shy marlin]

I had a dream about no food + no armor + no metal and woke up in a cold sweat not even joking

[vocal rivet]

Why?

Do we really need a whole document that just says Combat Update -> Deep North/1.0 -> Done?

[strong stirrup]

Lol

[mossy lance]

we do, a well elaborated document + a short movie just to tell me those 3 things

[pliant hatch]

Shouldn't a trilogy be a better idea then?
One for each update.

[tacit crystal]

Sounds like extending one book into 3 movies (looking at you, Hobbit).

[vocal rivet]

Don't remind me.

[pliant hatch]

I think you just were reminded, though.

[near furnace]

#RoadMap

[strong stirrup]

Sick roadmap

[near furnace]

🫡

[near furnace]

not muce since we are on the home stretch

[strong stirrup]

After 1.0 nothing more?

Valheim is abandoned after dat?

[near furnace]

lol god no

bugfixes and other stuff

[shy marlin]

BREAKING NEWS: VALHEIM ROADMAP RELEASED

[near furnace]

don't go break the poor news

[shy marlin]

me and news got beef

[near furnace]

oof

if you punch it enough times, it will eventually give you what you want?

[fossil delta]

That road map it too complicated, can you make a simpler one?

/sarcasm

[shy marlin]

Yea I agree, little too complex

[near furnace]

hm... 🤔

[shy marlin]

Yes.

[arctic summit]

I just scrolled thru the Linux thread ppl have issues running game?

[fossil delta]

I think Smiffe is missing his calling as a comedian. I hope you at least do stand up comedy.

[arctic summit]

This is the smoothest buttery indie game I've played in a while on loonix

[pliant hatch]

You mean he has to get off of his chair?

Very unlikely.

[fossil delta]

He can start a new trend of sit down comedy...

[near furnace]

I usually stand at my desk all day long 🤔

[fossil delta]

You know what they say, pictures, or it didn't happen. 😄

[near furnace]

When I started this job, the first thing I bought was a raiseable desk xD

[fossil delta]

OF course now a days, even AI is ruiniing that one.

[near furnace]

@grokAI picture of my desk setup plz

[vocal rivet]

How is that abandoned? It's finished.

[fossil delta]

As Smiffe said, they will fix all the issues, but Dvoid does have another project planned. So there is that.

I hope I enjoy whatever that is even half as much as I enjoy Valheim.

Getting two I love equally from the same outfit is unheard of, but I'll be thrilled if that happens too.

[vocal rivet]

I wonder if they'll stay in the survival genre or flip to something completely different.

[shy marlin]

Me personally I'd retire

[fossil delta]

I think Dvoid talked a little bit about it in an interview, or maybe one of their fireside chats? A few years ago.

[vocal rivet]

Retire? Surely you're not one of those people that think they're all magically millionaires?

[merry pebble]

Oh they certainly are, didnt you hear they bought a horse? 😄

[fossil delta]

Regardless, Dvoid has more ideas he wants to bring to life. Even if he, at least, is a millionaire. Or not.

[shy marlin]

If I made a successful game I'd retire for at least a few years yea

You can come out of retirement if you desire or need to

[fossil delta]

I used to own 3 horses. Does that mean I am, or was, a multimillionaire? Hardly.

[vocal rivet]

If you own three horses you're broke. They ain't cheap to run.

[fossil delta]

Now THAT is far closer to the truth! 😄

The game angered my wife and I last night. Dragged serpent up on shore, killed it, then all its scales and the trophy popped off into the deep waters. We could see all of them, but couldn't "dive" down to get any of it. Even built the ladder so high the final piece would fail.

We literally had it up on the land when it died.

Ah well, at least it prompted us to stop playing at a some what decent hour.

[west mica]

Ragnarok expansion with a whole new world map, accessed through a buildable portal. But only in my dreams.

[vocal rivet]

Doesnt sound like Valheim anymore.

[west mica]

In seriousness hopefully a lot of balancing and quality of life updates. Not the flashiest things to work on but just that can completely transform a game for the better. Make some currently non-meta weapons more usable, probably nerf a few op ones. I'd like to see the death system revamped because apart from dirt walls its seems to be the number 1 area where people resort to immersion breaking cheesing, that would be a controversial one though I imagine.

[vocal rivet]

Well, balancing and QOL updates (if any were even necessary) will come with 1.0 not afterwards.

[west mica]

Often with QOL updates, you dont know you needed something until you have it.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, I think the upcoming combat "fix" shows that being their plan.

The PTB for the North will be before 1.0.

[vocal rivet]

No, I tend to find that what people class as QOL updates just makes the game too easy or misses the point of the game entirely.

[fossil delta]

Mods will address most of those QoL desires.

[pliant hatch]

IF we get a PTB.

I highly doubt that, as its already stated that they don't want any of the content being spoiled on YouTube and Twitch before the 1.0 release.

[vocal rivet]

Smiffe has said both options several times. I think they just haven't decided yet.

[fossil delta]

Haven't they stated that before every PtB?

[vocal rivet]

Not to the same extent. This is the end of the game, not just another biome. A very different experience.

[scarlet fossil]

QoL mods are also a good source of finding out what needs to be in the base game. Satisfactory had limited horizontal nudging, a mod allowed removal of the limit and added vertical nudging. Latest game updated added both to the base game.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, but none of us were supposed to spoiler anything, yet the you tubers did it anyways.

[vocal rivet]

I've done every PTB since H & H and even I'm not sure I'd take part in a 1.0 PTB.

[pliant hatch]

The problem with "QoL" is that what one person calls an improvement, another person may consider as a downgrade.

Like the "crafting from chests" that's been suggested a few thousand times.
Personally I think it's a downgrade, as it means you don't need to carry anything along, only need to keep your storage in the workbench range.

While when you need to carry the stuff, the chests needs to be close enough to your workbenches to actually bring the stuff over without running out of stamina.

And yes, I've experienced both things in the games I play and guess what; the moment I was able to craft from chests I still took things in my inventory, as I had a much better idea of what amount of resources I had.

[west mica]

I guess its splitting hairs but QOL in my mind doesnt change any gameplay otherwise it wouldnt meet that definition anymore, it changes how you interface with the gameplay. As an example, a button which sorts everything in a chest by meta level descending would be QOL. You havent changed how that chest will fit into the gameplay, you havent given it more slots or allowed bigger stacks, the chest is no more powerful than before you just changed how you interact with it.

[fossil delta]

I stopped doing the PTB's because I want to be as "in the dark" about the new content as my wife is.

[vocal rivet]

That's one example, yes, but you even mention several other changes that ARE 'QoL' mods that exist that would utterly change how you play the game.

[fossil delta]

Just the farming mods I have heard about would make a huge difference in game play.

[west mica]

🤷‍♂️ definitions are always slippery at the best of times

[vocal rivet]

No, definitions help define the world around us.

[west mica]

Both can be true

[vocal rivet]

No, if you use them correctly, there's no confusion.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, but only one is accurate. The other is mostly wishful thinking. Or often is, at least.

[west mica]

What is correct is very subjective though lol.

[vocal rivet]

O_o

I'm not sure you know how words work.

[fossil delta]

Truth is rarely subjective. Its reality.

[west mica]

In biology its really hard to pin down what the definition of life or species is

[fossil delta]

Um, no.

[vocal rivet]

Ok, and now we're just going into tangent land so I'll drop from this conversation. Silly hour is upon us.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, probably best just move on now. As a biologist, I am feeling deeply offended right now.

[west mica]

I'm going off what my understanding is. Isnt it true that viruses may or may not count as 'life' for example?

I'm literally reading the preface of the wikipedia article about species and its already touched on how the definition of a species is not entirely straightforwards. Thats what I'm saying.

[pliant hatch]

We don't have viruses in Valheim. Unless your anti-virus program is messing up.
Anything else regarding biological viruses belongs imho in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202174832729661470

[vocal rivet]

Or some other conspiracy site.

[rocky silo]

still no update this month

💔

[merry pebble]

Its only 9th 😄

They usually come near end of the month

[rocky silo]

but we didnt get one during july lol im just so looking forward to it thats why

[merry pebble]

Yeah devs were on vacation 🙂 so no devblog from july

[tacit crystal]

After halfway of month at earliest when I'd expect a new blog post.

[near furnace]

it's not montly

[vocal rivet]

But it's definitely monthly.

[near furnace]

is it?

[vocal rivet]

No, I was joking.

You said it wasn't montly so I joked that it was monthly instead. Not a very good joke admittedly.

[near furnace]

but but

you're suppose to be the sensible serious type

[vocal rivet]

I know, sorry.

[shrewd garnet]

Viruses are not "alive" in the general sense of the term no

[vocal rivet]

Oh God, I thought we'd moved on.

[tacit crystal]

Technically it was monthly until July.

[shrewd garnet]

Aw shiet my bad I just arrived

[vocal rivet]

You've just arrived so thought replying to a comment from an hour and a half ago made sense?

[shrewd garnet]

Yes derek please forgive me I wasn't paying attention

[vocal rivet]

On this occasion, sure.

[merry pebble]

From November to July to be totally precise 🤓

[tacit crystal]

Hmm, I just counted this year. But you were more precisely correct on that regard.

[merry pebble]

Hehe, the main point is that there is no guarantee that they will be every month so lets leave it at that 😄

[light moat]

Can’t guarantee that the planet will still be around next month

Update delayed: Earth destroyed

[drowsy magnet]

supposed to say that in other server just ignore me, lol

[near furnace]

Olga never forgets

[lavish ivy]

Hey! Is the Microsoft Store trial for Valheim, ten hours of playtime or just ten hours of real time since starting the trial, if anyone knows?

[prisma ocean]

10 hours of game time would be about 10 minutes of real time, so my guess is that it’s for 10 hours of real time

[merry pebble]

I think they are meaning if its 10h of gameplay or if 10h countdown starts once they start the trial 🙂

[prisma ocean]

Also Valheim in Ashlands isn’t play, it’s work. Hard work.

[exotic sentinel]

am i missing something or do crossbows just have crazy slow lvling speed due to their attack speed?

[merry pebble]

They indeed are slow to level up, the reload time goes down as you level up tho 😄

[near furnace]

real hours

[safe belfry]

when do you think the deep north update will come out?

[shy marlin]

Deep north in 2025 is a bit ambitious

[pliant hatch]

I think it'll be released the moment the devs think it's ready.

[frigid mango]

i personally reckon somewhere between aug 2026 and jun 2027, but it's up to the devs as Thorin said

[safe belfry]

yeah i agree, definitely sometime in the future. could be 3, could 4... but not 5.

[thorny inlet]

I’m trying to break the inner tower of a charred fortress. Can you break those walls with a bettering ram?

[shy marlin]

yea

you can also dig under the central tower

[undone galleon]

Any word on when the update will come?

[vocal rivet]

Any news will appear in #news when we get it.

[pliant hatch]

Well.....

#valheim-chat message

[undone galleon]

I’m thinking of the smaller update they’ve mentioned, with some combat improvements?

[humble fable]

how often does the raids happen on the more setting, we are playing on hard mode and the raids are set on more, just curious

[shy marlin]

Raid interval of 28 min with a 33% chance to happen given u have the prereqs for the raid to happen

For a reference frame, raids on norm is every 46 min with a 20% chance

[shy marlin]

We really don't know all that much, hopefully there's a blogpost that talks about it this month

[muted halo]

u guys know when the deep north release is?

[shy marlin]

We duuno but Deep north in 2025 is a bit ambitious

[humble fable]

thank you

[unique helm]

Genuinely, how do you protect from troll raids in the early-mid game?

[shy marlin]

bronze atgeir is the best defense

[fossil delta]

The best defenses are either a ditch or raised dirt wall, or both.

Against anything that does not fly.

[unique helm]

Im talking about protecting your base from being flattend...

[fossil delta]

I am too. Nothing that does not fly ever gets past those.

They can get past the raised dirt walls if you do not make sure to have them straight enough on the outside.

[unique helm]

I would rather not have the ugly dirt walls.

It just seems like they dont want you to before you unlock turrets, whenever that is.

[fossil delta]

Ashlands, and you can always cover the dirt walls with the stone walls, etc...

Trolls will be the least of your worries, eventually. I prefer to keep my stuff from being destroyed, or my getting killed. So I invest fully in my defenses.

I don't do it all at once, but in stages. as I get the better materials.

[steel mica]

I'll be back in maybe another month

my base is still incomplete

[chrome badge]

Trolls are easy enough to kill at range, just be sure to lead them away from your base should a raid happen. I like to build a watchtower perimeter for every option against enemies.

I don't blame you for not wanting a dirt wall, it looks bad and is just plain avoiding raid's intended mechanics. If you're going to raise dirt walls, just turn off raids imo.

[unique helm]

Bro, the tide can be so annoying... Like building a dock and all of a sudden, storm comes through and the entire thing is underwater lol

[noble spruce]

I’m thinking about making me a tower in the Black Forest as a kind of outpost I would like a little fire but I can’t place a fire up high

[strong stirrup]

you get hearths eventually but

you COULD raise ground, place a campfire, lower ground and boom campfire high

[noble spruce]

Man these greydwarf brutes are so annoying

[near furnace]

yeah. their attack pattern is rather direct

[jolly stag]

I prefer a ditch - it looks better imo (better view) and it is easier to kill the enemies by shooting from the safe place

[golden granite]

how do you handle ditches near the sea where the greydwarfs seem to be able to just swim around? do you raise the earth there? put up spikes?

[hearty niche]

Why would folks use Swords ? Using iron as an example, the axe does more Slash damage and you can chop down trees with it.

[merry pebble]

I just extend a stake wall deep into the water and around base so they dont see in and dont want to go inside 🙂

[golden granite]

aye, seems to be the way to do it

[merry pebble]

Better dps 🙂

[golden granite]

I alway wonder if its worth going sword. Feels like the meta is mace, but would I be at a bigg disadvantage if using sword?

so maybe make dry moat awaay from water but close enough to ocean then? would that be the best way?

[merry pebble]

Swords/slash dmg is quite versitile, blunt is too ofcourse. And swords dont have multitarget penalty.

[golden granite]

I mean, just off the coast, so you have a ditch all around instead of on 3 sides like you would if you built on the coast

[merry pebble]

Depends which noise 🙂 also, what is "one screen" range?

[tacit crystal]

1h swords have no MTP and also have much stronger secondary attack than 1h axes.

But nowadays I usually go with battleaxe, both woodcutting and no MTP for primary hits.

Knockback is situational at best 😄 and really not a reason for you to die for.

Less knockback means that you will be able to connect more hits together meaning faster enemy kill. If you like it tho it is very good for crowd control 🙂

[pallid quail]

https://youtu.be/DKq4Ome2nMk?si=9Vi9yLWoUzyfQLFJ A paid modded version of valheim

Is this even allowed?

[tacit crystal]

Paid mods are against EULA.

[pallid quail]

well look at that

https://www.patreon.com/KrumpacModding/membership the patreon

[merry pebble]

Afaik patreon is optional.

[pallid quail]

Oh ok

I just wanted to know in case i buy and it gets nuked

[nocturne wolf]

Axe secondary has 1.5x damage, sword secondary has 3x damage

[shy marlin]

1h sword also doesn't suffer from mtp

[merry pebble]

But you die faster with them!! Apparently....

[shy marlin]

Scale issue

Swords will prob mean you die more because there's very little push form the weapon. You will get hit alot more.

Yea that's just wrong

[merry pebble]

And what are you buying?

[vocal rivet]

Mods...

[merry pebble]

The ones from Krumpac are free from what i saw, hence why i am asking.

[vocal rivet]

Honestly if you look at what Krumpac has done they might as well have made their own given how different to Valheim it now is.

[west mica]

I made a mistake naming my first two chickens
Now when I go to murder the rest of them I'm always terrified I'll knife the wrong ones lol

[vocal rivet]

Actually, looking at their Thunderstore page, it seems they've changed things after talking to IG so maybe it's not as problematic.

[hasty geyser]

Man i got 9 surtling cores 😭

[torn walrus]

@merry pebble I'm so lucky that I got 3 hunting raids in 3 in-game days at that spot... 💀 https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202267437647527977

[merry pebble]

Oooof, that is quite unlucky xD you might consider actually putting 3 player base items around to get other raids.

[torn walrus]

I don't want any raids when I'm farming. (ुŏ̥̥̥̥םŏ̥̥̥̥) ु

Well, at least it's the first run where I don't have any problems farming wolves....

[merry pebble]

True that 😄

[torn walrus]

@west mica Because I have drop rate * 3, I got 26 and a half stacks of silver from that spot💀

[hasty geyser]

I spent so long mining under this copper and now its just floating

[vocal rivet]

The pop technique is rarely worth it for copper as the hotbox is often below the dig limit.

[hasty geyser]

oh well, i have a lot of stone now haha

you cant dismantle items right? accidentally made a 2nd troll tunic

[merry pebble]

Nope you cant

[hasty geyser]

its gonna take a while running all this ore to my base haha

[tiny mortar]

Just played the game after a long time.. what are the barrels for? Just storage?

[merry pebble]

Yep, better storage than basic chests 🙂

Also better looking.

[tiny mortar]

I assume theyre worse than the reinforced chests though right?

[merry pebble]

Indeed

[tiny mortar]

A shame. Theyre no use to me then. Thanks for the answer tho!

Also is anything known about the next big update? Like the next biome thing

[merry pebble]

You can use them as scattered storage around your base since they look quite good imo 😄

[tiny mortar]

Sorry I havent been caught up with things for a while now haha

[merry pebble]

Not much info appart from whats in #news, it is probably not gonna be out this year tho. And we wil get one more, bit smaller update before it which will tweak combat on sloped surfaces. 🙂

[tiny mortar]

Yeah Im not expecting this year either. Good to know combat is getting tweaked though, always a hassle fighting on high ground

Speaking of updates I should really find Hildir and the Bog Witch.. my duo I play with on my server just refuses to play until the next big update 😭

[quick falcon]

New to the game is the combat souls like?

[merry pebble]

For sure do 😄 especially Bog Witch sells quite a few good things

[merry pebble]

You can roll xD

[tiny mortar]

Havent heard or seen anything about her, what does she do? Just alchemy stuff for mead and such?

[quick falcon]

What about lock on?

[merry pebble]

Nope

[tacit crystal]

She sells ingredients for different meads and feasts.

[merry pebble]

Whad Joel said 😄

[tiny mortar]

OH RIGHT feasts are a thing I totally forgot thats awesome

[tacit crystal]

Also some other items like serving tray and scythe handle that unlocks after defeating the 4th boss.

[tiny mortar]

Whats the scythe do? Is there a multiplier to the crops you harvest with it or is it just like the atgeirs

[merry pebble]

You can harvest multiple crops at once with it

So you dont have to click on each one

[tiny mortar]

So just like the atgeir?

[shy marlin]

Atgeir doesn't lvl up the farming skill scythe does

[tiny mortar]

Oh okay cool

[merry pebble]

Atgeir can do that only to flax and barley, scythe to most crops

[tiny mortar]

Hell yeah. Need to get working on finding these new merchants then. Sailed south a lot but my world is very old, pre Mistlands. Gotta sail north to find new meadows and swamps

[merry pebble]

Good luck

[raw token]

I think it took me close to 30 nights on the mountain to catch that guy. I'd set everything up on the mountain and work on my base during the day, then portal back up when night fell. Fortunately I had practice catching the no star/1 stars and this was first 2* I'd seen during the entire process.

[fossil delta]

I think it took an average of 15 nights for the 2 star to finally show up for my play throughs, so 30 nights is entirely possible.

I no longer rely on breeding them anymore, I just count on being Hunted often enough. 😄

[tacit crystal]

You might want to secure few more starred of those by taming another one and breeding them there to get starred pups.

[west mica]

Sounds like me doing night shifts in the swamps to kill enough wraiths for chains for my black metal shield
Then I immediately found an equally sized stack of chains in the first dungeon I did after that

[strong stirrup]

Lol we just had infinite ghost raids so

[west mica]

I only had one and I think I was still in swamps at the time, if not that deffinitely mountains. I wasnt confident with raids either so I was still just hiding in my house, I could see them partially clipping through the walls all over the place not sure if they'd find a gap it was legitimiately terrifying.

At night too obviously.

[strong stirrup]

Tbh I was confident with defending raids the second they started coming, I wanted to protect my own private domicile at all costs, so any raid that came I was instantly out of the house ready to slaughter

[west mica]

I tried hiding through a troll raid. You can imagine how that went.

I did not protect my domicile.

[strong stirrup]

Oh god yeah troll raids sucked before I had some actual spears and stuff

Now its just a burden as we don't need anything from em

[unique helm]

Seems like anytime I want to go sailing, the wind is blowing the opposite direction that I want to go. So frusterating

[merry pebble]

The funny thing is that weather is predetermined 😄

[fossil delta]

Yet when you get the Moder power you will hardly ever use it.

[unique helm]

I think most of the powers other than Bonemass are underwhelming.

Would be nice if they were just passive affects to show your power growth.

[fossil delta]

I use Eikthyr's power far more than any other. I haven't used Bonemass' power in a long time.

[unique helm]

Also the 20min cooldown is disincentivizing tbh. How likely are you to time your cooldown with when you need it.

[strong stirrup]

Moder

[unique helm]

Pre bonemass

[fossil delta]

That is true. I think it has to do with accounting for multi player.

[strong stirrup]

I just never go to the stones so never changed it from moder back to bonemass even if it would help out a ton in te mistlands

[strong stirrup]

Usually you use the power onve in an hour or less

[fossil delta]

I have a portal to the stones. I still don't go to switch out powers.

[strong stirrup]

At least for me

[strong stirrup]

Me too

[unique helm]

I actually never use them, because they feel so underwhelming. They dont really change much unless its moder and bonemass.

[merry pebble]

I forgot to take any power this playthrough, still playing without one even when i remembered i could go get it. No problems at all.

[fossil delta]

I find Eikthyrs power to be very useful. Which is why I have it 98% of the time.

[unique helm]

I find it useful for corpse recovery, but otherwise meh.

[merry pebble]

Also just exploring

[fossil delta]

I do a lot of exploring. Its also a huge help in the Mistlands.

And the mountains.

[strong stirrup]

They def were a lifesaver in my early plains days with bonemass

[fossil delta]

Combine that with the meads, and I fly through the Mistlands. Even without the cape. 😄

[strong stirrup]

But elder esp is so bad

[merry pebble]

Bonemass power is honestly ridiculously op 😄

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

Negates most physical damage for 5 minutes

[merry pebble]

50%, but thats still ginourmous ammount 🙂

[strong stirrup]

Yeah I need to get that (even if I have no issues surviving the mistlands usually)

[merry pebble]

But iirc it reduces it before armor is applied so it feels like much more
-# Somebody might want to fact check this just in case tho~

[strong stirrup]

Before armor is insane

[fossil delta]

I've still only died 8 times in a 540 game day run. I don't really need the powers, aside from Eikthyr.

[strong stirrup]

only? Ive died 8 times in 2 in-game days after finding a swamp island like

I def have around 50 deaths in 260 days

[fossil delta]

Well, I do have a heck of a lot of experience. I am over 4500 hours.

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[fossil delta]

In my first couple of hundred hours of playing, I died a lot. Then I started doing Zero Death solo runs, and got a lot better.

I even got to the Queen without dying. Then she trashed me.

[shy marlin]

😎

[fossil delta]

I can beat her now, but I have not tried another Zero Death run.

I probably never will.

[raw token]

I've got a pack of no-stars roaming outside my base, a pack of 1-stars inside, and I've already got the 2-star in the breeding pen with a 1-star, they'll pop out a 2-star pup soon enough - then I can isolate both of them 🙂

[fossil delta]

I made the mistake of having wolves outside of my base. Once. They bred soooooo much that my computer started freezing up.

[raw token]

I like the stamina boost power for Ekythir - I use it all the time

[raw token]

I think I've got things clear enough and have the spaced far enough apart they aren't breeding (not enough food sources) so far I haven't seen any new pups outside

[fossil delta]

I pick my bases to have a lot of neck, deer, and boar near by. So I just stopped breeding them outside of my base.

I've stopped breeding them, period. Being Hunted supplies me/us with plenty.

[raw token]

So when you get the hunting raid you trap and tame those wolves?

[fossil delta]

No, I/we just kill 30 to 42 every time.

[raw token]

Oh oh oh, you mean plenty for meat/hides and stuff - I've got an idea to bring a hunting pack of 2* along with me to the plains and such, just roam with a pack, and they can kill peripheral mobs while I focus on other things.

We'll see how that goes

[fossil delta]

I've done that. Its fun. I just can't do things like that with my wife. Her lap top can't handle more than around 4 wolves without starting to have lag issues.

[raw token]

Ok glad to know it works in principle - so wait - 30-42 wolves show up in a raid?

[strong stirrup]

Its a lot

[raw token]

Holy crap

[merry pebble]

They continue spawning untill the raid ends
There is some max number there can be at once and when you kill some the raid will spawn more to get to that number again.

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[fossil delta]

Yeah, 42 is the most we have killed ourselves.

[strong stirrup]

Do they spawn even if ur outside the raid zone tho

[fossil delta]

We often have help from the locals, and get less. 😄

[strong stirrup]

Infinite meat farm if outside base

[raw token]

Well, I haven't killed bonemass yet, I'm building my outer defensive wall still - when that's done then I'll move along 🙂

[fossil delta]

I don't think so? I have never tried, since I do want it to end.

[strong stirrup]

I mean one level of stakewall is strong enough

Until

[strong stirrup]

Hey robert should I invest in the premium stakewalls

[raw token]

Right - that's why a (at least double stone thick) wall is going up above the stakes

[fossil delta]

I don't know, I use raised earth, then stone over that. So I've never used them.

[strong stirrup]

Uhuh

Maybe I should make a moat could be fun

[fossil delta]

Moats keep them at a distance, but I haven't dug those in a long time either.

Water is great for slowing down seekers, though. So maybe I should.

Anyone else not bother with Meat Platters, and just hunt Serpents instead?

[merry pebble]

I use what i have 😄

[fossil delta]

I do too, just when I run short, I much rather just hunt Serpents, than Lox, seekers and Hares.

[tacit crystal]

Hmm, nowadays I save hare meats for misthare supremes I use to make Mistlands feasts.

[merry pebble]

I pretty much never run out of seeker meat, lox usually too, and hares... if i have some meat i will use it but dont hunt them, i use other hp food when necessary

[fossil delta]

We haven't gone to the Ashlands yet, so don't have that feast yet.

IE we have not beat the Queen. Haven't even gotten to her location yet.

[tacit crystal]

Mountain feast + Plains feast + Honey glazed chicken/Serpent stew during Mistlands era, chicken is good if I have low serpent meat and decent chicken pen.

[fossil delta]

Hare is the biggest limitation for us. Chicken we do fine on. We can breed 70 at a time. Reminds us of our real life farming days. 😄

[strong stirrup]

70 AT A TIME?

[fossil delta]

Yeah, we have 8 pens set up.

[strong stirrup]

Damn

[merry pebble]

There is no limit on how many eggs can hatch 😄

[strong stirrup]

Yall really are good at stockpiling resources

[merry pebble]

If there is too many chickens they will not lay more however.

[fossil delta]

Lots and lots of practice. Even my wife has over 1000 hours in Valheim.

[tacit crystal]

Nice, I usually keep one coop with 3-4 chickens laying eggs, then cull them to get 10-15 chicken meat at once.

[fossil delta]

In a given area. We have them spread out, on two of our bases.

We literally build chicken houses.

2 breeders per house. We don't bother with omelets, or the angler fish meal. Just chicken meat.

The Salad is very easy to keep up on the mats for.

[merry pebble]

I usually go for 2 stamina meals so i like omelettes very much 😄

[fossil delta]

With the Eikthyr power and the meads, I usually go for 2 HP foods. Especially since I am the only one who uses a shield. So only one stamina food.

Even more so if I am eating Feasts. Those give a ton of stamina.

[tacit crystal]

HFF is nowadays my go-to food setup.

[fossil delta]

Yeah, I use 2 feasts whenever I am not in the Mistlands.

[winged juniper]

Anybody know which colors we should get if we're looking to paint the Valheim Board-Game's figurines?

[primal heath]

Hello gentlemen

My friend has this game, that’s why i joined the discord

I haven’t checked anything out yet I’m hoping someone can answer really quick, can I play with him? Is it multiplayer?

[hollow forge]

yes

[merry pebble]

Yep co-op is possible 🙂

But maximum is 10 people on one world

[hollow forge]

looking for someone to play with with i just started a new world

[near furnace]

which colors?

[primal heath]

Ah I see

[hollow forge]

theres a board gamw?

[merry pebble]

You can look and make post in #1024264966712340510 😄

[primal heath]

What would be the best description possible you have for this game

[merry pebble]

Yep, currently its in production

[near furnace]

https://gamefound.com/en/projects/mood-publishing/valheim-the-board-game

[fossil delta]

Yes. We should be getting it soon.

[hollow forge]

sorry the lfg chat is dead

thats awsome id love to buy it

[merry pebble]

Well people here are from all over the world so not everyone will be active all the time 😄

[merry pebble]

You can pre-order the standard and deluxe edition 🙂

[hollow forge]

im to poor lol

but thank for the info

[near furnace]

yeah. boardgames nowdays are quite exiensive if you want the full kit

[winged juniper]

Just the paint colors to paint the STL miniatures. I was hoping maybe the team would list the colors as an add-on on the board-game pledge or something, but no info was given

[hollow forge]

i feel like this game is dieing

[tacit crystal]

Feeling doesn't equal to fact. Currently 18600+ people playing on Steam.

[merry pebble]

• quite a bit more on Xbox and Mac presumably 😄

[hollow forge]

not saying anything bad im just having a hard time find someone to play a new world with

[unique helm]

That doesnt mean the game is dying, just that not many people are looking to Co-op

[strong stirrup]

Or theyre playing with friends of their own etc

[tacit crystal]

You searched in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510, right? Sometimes it takes time due to timezones etc. It's night time in EU.

[hollow forge]

understandable

[shy marlin]

tbh i think the majority of players are just waiting for combat update to log back in

[unique helm]

Im waiting for any update tbh

[hollow forge]

?

[strong stirrup]

Next update fixes combat

[merry pebble]

There is gonna be an update that tweaks combat on slopes, adds new armor and few more things somewhat "soon".

[strong stirrup]

Sloped combat is the main part

[unique helm]

Its a nightmare fighting anything on a slight incline lmao

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[hollow forge]

true

[strong stirrup]

I almost died to a seeker coz of stairs

[hollow forge]

i have almost 100hrs but i havent play in afew years so i just want to dive back in

[tacit crystal]

It's something to get used to, lol. Probably the update makes combat more enjoyable, especially if it affects to enemy mobs too so it doesn't become too cheesable.

[unique helm]

A lot of new content for you then.

[hollow forge]

lol i wouldnt know

[near furnace]

like a minature painting guide? 🤔

[unkempt marten]

im so sad i dont have screan recording

i just killed a bird with pick axe XD

[vocal rivet]

That's...impressive.

[merry pebble]

Welcome to the club! Hyper will be delighted to hear that 😄

[unkempt marten]

[tacit crystal]

They need a title now, "Picker of birds". 🐦‍⬛

[viral perch]

[shy marlin]

[merry pebble]

[light moat]

[trail whale]

[quasi latch]

[blissful sandal]

Played this game when it was on game pass and wanted to give it another shot, are there any servers for console that have an active community for/with newer players?

[vocal rivet]

#1024264966712340510 is a good place to find servers.

[light moat]

Highest Rocky chain: 6

[blissful sandal]

I've wrote in a few and still going through the list, figured I ask here too. Just looking to get a feel for the Xbox side of things, I can see I need to get back on PC for this game asap 😌

[unique helm]

Are birds only valid targets while landed?

[shy marlin]

I’ve hit tons of birds in the air, but all of those are only when the bird initially starts flying from the ground. Not sure if they’re targetable all the way in the sky

[old trench]

Although Deathsquitos are targetable in the air

[craggy hill]

why does the drakkar have such a small sail it looks very strange somehow

[near furnace]

yes

so you can actually see where you're going

[craggy hill]

why do we need to see where we are going, it's not interesting)

[strong stirrup]

-# crunch crunch

-# crack

oh no the ship sank

[craggy hill]

in the ashlands I already crash into rocks so I don't see the difference. the ashlands are hell for solo players

[supple holly]

Yeah I get the impression that there are way more spawners and mobs then any other biome.. I just landed to be busy with fighting them from dusk till dawn.. Finally I got a portal there and shield generator, but I think I will take my rod and go fishing in the meadows for the coming weeks 😉

#valheim-chat message this seems to work much better now indeed.. Thanks again for the tip 😃 still struggles in the Ashlands though, but more playable then before

[west mica]

I'm getting close to taking on The Queen and I'm legit terrified of starting the Ashlands, in particular how hard it is to set up a beach head
I was planning on sailing along the coat to see if there's anywhere quiet with no spawners nearby, maybe a small island off the coat which is close enough to put up a bridge

[strong stirrup]

I will personally try to delay the ashlands and queen as long as possible

I don't want to rush anymore

Well, "rush" I have 200 hours at mistlands

[west mica]

I need to level up my magic skills before the queen anyway though I just died in a stupid way which has the opposite effect ugh. At least with the other bosses it was possible to level up all your gera to 4 if youre willing to grind to give yourself an extra edge.

[near furnace]

crashing into things as you drive is bad 😄

[strong stirrup]

I will be leveling blood magic with either a draugr spawner or a greydwarf spawner not sure which yet but yk really need to grind to magic but I need sapppppp

30 minute cruise to bring fucking 5 black metal

[west mica]

Omg I know
Why did no one tell me to bring black metal to mistlands haha

[strong stirrup]

Fr

[west mica]

If you havent done it already, dont bring just 5

[strong stirrup]

Stack or 2?

I won't build a base there soo

Just need sap

[west mica]

I would bring enough for 4 extractors. It might be overkill but you will speedrun having enough eitr for everything that way. Often roots are very close to each other, so you can use multiple extractors on the same root to drain it in a day or so, then switch to the 2nd or 3rd root whilst the 1st one recharges.

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[west mica]

Its OK to have the extractors out in the open in my experience. Mobs dont seem to target them very much.

Putting defenses up just for that isnt necessary imo

[strong stirrup]

Yeah

[west mica]

I'm building out both a heavy armor and magic set at the same time. Both breath new life into the game, but the new magic items especially.

[strong stirrup]

I loove my heavy armor

[weary egret]

Whats the best build for fader? I already beat him once with my usual style but i wanna kill him again for another head, this time with a diferent build maybe

[craggy hill]

you are unlikely to succeed, the waters of the ash lands are full of rocks, but if you settle on these rocks, then brrr, the volcanic bitches will get you everywhere and it will not eliminate the problem of moving around the ash lands themselves. in general, stone embankments are our everything)

[tacit crystal]

What was your usual style? Berserkir axes deal quick damage for melee. Trollstav and Staff of Wild is safe bet for mageplay.

[strong stirrup]

Just kill it™

[weary egret]

It was dyrnwyn and tower shield

Guess gonna try double axes now

How about armor? Flametal?

[craggy hill]

a small idea you can settle right in the lava on the flame-metal pillars and then you will be almost unreachable

[tacit crystal]

I prefer Ask set. Set bonus is nice and no movement speed penalty is great.

[weary egret]

👍 thx

1 hp food 1 stam food and 1 feast sounds good i guess?

Or two feasts 1 hp

Might be able to do shield on myself with the mana from double feast

[tacit crystal]

Yeah, Mistlands and Ashlands feast combo is great. Then stamina or HP, whichever you prefer.

[craggy hill]

but he needs to kill the progenitor for the feast of the ashlands

[weary egret]

Already did, going 2nd time

[tacit crystal]

They said already beaten.

[craggy hill]

a

[tacit crystal]

Also want to mention, while thunder axes deal some extra damage occasionally, jade axes are also great since the rooting effect affects to bosses too.

[weary egret]

Rooted bosses cant say no
Something like that idk

[tacit crystal]

Well, the rooting prevents them moving or turning but they can still attack when you're on their sight.

[nocturne wolf]

Sight doesn’t matter, each attack has a different angle for triggering and some are 360 degrees. Being behind something won’t stop them either.

[weary egret]

Yeah i got ur point, i can avoid getting attacked if i just stop him from turning

[weary egret]

Hmmm at least i can avoid his melees, ik theres still gonna be fire and meteors

[tacit crystal]

Hmm, at least Yagluth is helpless if you keep being behind his back as he turns very slowly.

Maybe Fader is built differently.

[nocturne wolf]

His only attack with a 360 degree attack trigger is his spin, everything else is 180 or less

[weary egret]

Oh ye forgot

[nocturne wolf]

Yagluth’s biggest attack trigger is 90 degrees

[dusky cave]

Hello any info about patch with combat changes release date? I want to start new world and I’m waiting for some new featured.

[merry pebble]

No new info yet, nope.

You will get pinged when there is something new in #news 😄

[steel mica]

The moment I see this with a red circle with a number I am dropping whatever I am doing and dead sprinting to open valheim

[merry pebble]

Well in that channel it will most likely be a devblog or something, the #valheim-patchnotes and #public-test-patchnotes channels on the other hand

[sleek pecan]

Why does xbox gotta pay 20 dollars for the game now bro

[merry pebble]

Because that is the normal price?

[west bridge]

Yeh, Steam has it for 19,99 Euros

Pretty much the same price if you convert it

[vocal rivet]

You were expecting it for free?

[sleek pecan]

I had it for free up until ashlands came out I paid for gamepass which it was included

[merry pebble]

It is gone from gamepass since contract ended, that was in autumn last year iirc.

[sleek pecan]

Is there any plans to get that contract back up again ?

[merry pebble]

Not that we know of

[sleek pecan]

Tragic guess I'll just have to shell out the 20 bucks i was just asking before I pulled the trigger

[brazen linden]

No none-Microsoft studios games has been on GamePass for ever.

[inner tapir]

can i swim down in water?

[west bridge]

Don't think so

[brazen linden]

Not without using mods.

[inner tapir]

so if a building is in the water what then lol

[west bridge]

Say what? You found one of those ruined buildings underwater?

[inner tapir]

idk its like a tower circling down

[merry pebble]

Ah, you dont need to go down there 😄

Thats only one time spawner for certain enemy usually and not even always

[inner tapir]

ohh

[wooden tapir]

you can find towers where they arent even there?

wait im thinking of wrong tower

[merry pebble]

They mean the pits with spiral staircases on the outside 😉
They sometimes have a one time spawner of draugr elite on the bottom

[wooden tapir]

yea

[stark sable]

how much of a pain are the raid rates in hardcore? I might just turn raids off tbh I don't like em
