I have actually tested, wolves don't eat any meats from Mistlands and Ashlands mobs.

Ugh, was sailing up a river and it turned out to cut through a mountain so temp at surface level was freezing, nearly died before I made it through

Bloody spectacular location though, might be a place to build once I have warmer armour...

If you're able to build an arched stone bridge connecting both shores with a building on it, it may look great.

Yeah that would be cool, one side was much lower than the other though, sadly

#

Crap, plains. I need to find swamps, not mosquito-ridden grasslands with angry green dudes

pliant hatch
#

The only angry green dudes that are a problem for me are the ones that had too many steroids and the psychics throwing fireballs at me.

heady parcel
#

Sweet, it's one of those days. Found a swamp with one crypt in it. Entered the crypt aaaand two out of three passages were closed at the entrance, the third had an empty hall ending in another dead end. Not a single scrap pile. Whoop! I know it happens, but the very first crypt being this bad... argh!

#

Only worse one I ever saw had three cave ins at the entrance. Gave one yellow mushroom iirc.

pliant hatch
#

Worst one I had was having a chamber with a spawner in it, without anything blocking the entrance to the chamber. And the two other passages caved in.

Guess what spawned the moment I entered?

Right a 2 ⭐ Draugr archer.

I know very well what the meaning of "being hit before you even saw it coming" means, as that was an insta death.

Had to craft bronze armor and a skellie shield to get close enough to the bugger to kill him. My "only" luck, I had so much copper and tin, I had started to craft a bronze sword for the "arsenal" I intend to build at all my bases. So I kinda had good enough equipment to deal with damage.
Was the only time I used bronze armor and a tower shield. After that, never again. For obvious reasons.

Ooof

pliant hatch

I guess when RNG is in your favor, SNG will strike to balance it again.

#

Those archers are menaces. I raided a draugr village the other night that had a little squad of four of those guys, one of them a one-star, that were rushing around the island slaughtering anything that moved. Deer, necks, boars, greys... Managed to pick them off one by one while they were distracted by wildlife.

#

Raiding those villages with fire arrows and fire hazards enabled was a very viking-feeling thing btw

#

Just that squad that escaped, guess they shot out the wall. All the others and their spawners burned. Hah!

Valheim humor:

Having a base at the border of plains and Swamp and getting the "A foul smell of the swamp" event......

#

One of the more funny animations in this game:

Fulings wave their arm with a shield as their "idle-stance".

Hit them with a poison arrow or Draugr fang and they do that while the poison cloud is still around them.
Sort of giving the impression they're waving the poison cloud away.

Oooh, both the bog witch and Hildir popped up so close to each other that their symbols overlap on the map. Way too much plains around there for my taste though, don't have the I-Win harnesk yet

Quick question, how come the swamps lost the spiderweb look and went to green gunk trees? I would of loved to of seen giant spiders

I sailed through the whole map back then to see what it all looked like, the ashlands turned my whole map red when I went there and the north was empty.

#

I really do miss that webbing look

merry pebble
#

North Is still empty, and ashlands were also empty with ocasional meteorite and surtlings spawns

flat axle
#

I remember the surties

#

Was going through old vids from back then and looking at how everything has changed

foggy glacier
#

I remember the piles of (legacy)flametal in the Ashlands placeholder.

They should of definitely kept the giant spiders instead of dog the abomination and the one in the ashlands, the bone thing lol

#

I just watched the hobbit last night and here he is, the king

#

Lmao

pliant hatch
#

Not everyone likes spiders.
So not having them in this game is a good choice.

Especially since for lots of games spiders are something that must be added.

Giant spiders are a bit meh tbh, the seekers in Mistlands are pretty unique for Valheim, not to mention the ticks and their noisy mum

I’m an arachnophobic, but if the game had something to actually put me on edge I would have paid double.

The ticks fill me with almost painful revulsion. They're the most disgusting game mob I've ever seen - they're great. I love to hate them!

foggy glacier

Mmm, juicy though.

Without ticks, no shrooms.

#

Ugh I forgot that serpents are actually not harmless when all you have is a karve, finewood bow and regular arrows. Second one almost sank me

foggy glacier
#

lol yeah. They're a bit of a pain if all you got is flinthead arrows.

#

honestly, you don't need anything from serpents until you hit swamp anyway, so wait for the huntsman bow.

heady parcel
#

Unrested too and low on stamina, just standing there waiting for stamina to regenerate while it chewed on the boat was a bit nerve wracking

it made me very sad when they locked serpent stew behind the iron cooking station.

pliant radish

I've been rationing my iron because I didn't want to have to go mine more for a while now, entirely forgetting that I already have hundreds of unsmelted iron just waiting to be processed

pliant hatch

<- thinks of smart arse comment, then realizes he once mined 18 stacks of iron, only to discover the longboat near the swamp was already having 18 stacks of iron in its hold

pliant radish

lol

heady parcel

There's no such thing as too much iron

#

Just starting on my iron grind this time around heh

pliant hatch

36 stacks of Iron is getting close to "almost no such thing" though.

pliant radish

it really isn't depending on what you're doing

In my Ashlands game I have a few reinforced chests full, but the speed at which they deplete when building grand things is phenomenal

pliant radish
#

when I was making one of my favorite building projects to date, a giant tower that reached up as high as I could manage (went from sea level, had snow on its tip), I used sooo many stacks of iron

many more than 36 stacks I'm sure

Gods, I never thought I'd be a vanilla purist about any game, but whenever I click on a Valheim youtube video and it starts spamming various mod stuff, I just shut it off. This is not like me, I play most games modded to feck - but to me Valheim simply doesn't need any. Weird feeling.

Resistances never stack. Best one applies, any other is ignored.

^That, the mead gives better resistance (75%) so thats the one game will use in dmg calculations πŸ™‚

supple jasper

is the latest update the one that expands the other biomes?

supple jasper
pliant radish
#

no, the latest update added some new mechanics and stuff but not new biomes

supple jasper
#

thank you

#

there's just too many UX issues that the devs refuse to address

pliant radish
#

how so?

supple jasper
#

at least hit boxes have been fixed

pliant radish
#

I've not felt any particular issues with UX in this game

supple jasper
#

have you hit the later parts?

pliant radish
#

yeah I've reached ashlands, though I haven't defeated the final boss

supple jasper
#

common issue at the end is the lack of inventory space for instance

misty bloom
#

Does anyone know how to use the dev console on Xbox now? I cant seem to find the gameplay setting

supple jasper
#

it's probably fine for group play, but an issue when playing solo

#

next issue is farming: you need to plant and pick every crop separately

dense yew
#

but the scythe

plush umbra
#

i was solo testing ashlands and it was fine for me, though i made frequent stops at my base via portals
-# coming from oldschool monster hunter, i kinda enjoy being forced to consider leaving some things at home to be able to take more with me later

supple jasper
#

can the scythe carrots?

pliant hatch
plush umbra
pliant radish
#

the scythe is magic lol

supple jasper
#

cool, so at least picking is fixed

#

next we've got the 0 visibility wisplight

dense yew
#

I'm sure you'll find plenty more of your grievances fixed if you, yaknow play the game more

supple jasper
#

followed by smelters requiring you to feed everything piece by piece

plush umbra
#

that's kinda the point of mistlands, and they're designed around it.
there's higher PoI density, so while you explore slower, it takes less movement to find interesting places.
also, enemies can't see through the mist either. they can hear you, but won't aggro until they can see you

pliant hatch
#

Wisplight works fine.

Unless you're sprinting all the time because it does need time to catch up with you.

pliant radish
#

I love the wisplight and the mistlands

supple jasper
#

utility items not stacking, like you can't wear the belt and wisplight at once

pliant radish
#

in fact I often don't even use the wisplight because wandering through the fog is fun

nocturne wolf
supple jasper
#

I mean it's fine that some don't stack, but not being able to use the carry weight upgrade sucks

dense yew

#

Mistlands doesn't have a ton of heavy materials, there's no unique metal there

supple jasper
#

incredibly slow boats

dense yew
#

next ur gonna complain that, what, we have to EAT? in this SURVIVAL game!?!?

pliant radish
#

the boats are fast, the world is large

misty bloom
#

I got a question for anyone on console in the public test

supple jasper
#

that coupled with the wind mechanic that wastes 1h IRL to get to where you want to

#

moder power only lasting for 5 minutes

heady parcel
# supple jasper it's probably fine for group play, but an issue when playing solo

I don't mind the inventory as is, it forces choices on the player's part which is a good thing. But I do agree that in the latter parts of the game the "need-to-have" stuff tends to clog up most of the inventory. I wouldn't lose sleep over the devs adding equipment slots to free up some some space, but nor will I ragequit if they don't. And it is certainly not something important enough to mod.

supple jasper
#

mods fix all that

dense yew
supple jasper
pliant hatch
#

Or simply uninstall the game as you give me the impression it's not for you.

supple jasper
#

there's a reason why mods are valuable for this game

pliant radish
#

The wind has ~75% chance to be facing a direction you can use to go the way you want. The wind is also random. Combine that with being able to use moder power 25% of the time and on average you'll be just fine

supple jasper
#

many things are probably less of an issue when playing multiplayer

dense yew
#

I mean look all I'm saying is if you wanna mod I don't think anybody's saying you shouldn't, but you shouldn't put down people who enjoy the vanilla experience just cause you don't like it as much

#

I, genuinely, personally enjoy ALL of the mechanics you don't like

#

but I think you and your opinions have value

plush umbra
#

same, same

#

-# except farming, i'll stick by being a weirdo who doesn't really enjoy planting crops.

Thing with Moder's power is that it only helps you getting from one place to another. When off ship you have no use for it whatsoever. I prefer paddling now and then to not having Bonemass or something else useful at hand when I need it. Never used Moder's power so much as once...

supple jasper
#

I basically only main bonemass and eiktyr early on

pliant radish
#

slow boats and no teleporting metals used to be my biggest gripe with the game but I've been playing with standard portal rules recently and I'm enjoying myself. I've learned to not collect more metal than I need, and by not making metal armor throughout the playthrough as well my demand for it has been low enough that I'm not constantly travelling in search of it

plush umbra
#

i use eikthyr until i get bonemass, then i never switch again

pliant radish
supple jasper
#

I don't think the power changes fix it

dense yew
nocturne wolf
#

I use bonemass in mountains because I'm bad at dealing with the wolf raid but everywhere else I use eikthyr

plush umbra
#

i likely will experiment more post power rebalance, but i expect bonemass to remain my most used power

supple jasper
#

there's still nothing that competes with it

plush umbra
#

depends more on the context now, and i don't have much experience comparing them yet

pliant radish
#

I disagree but I don't want to go into detail because its technically spoilers

#

they're all great at specific things and they're all useful now though, imo

supple jasper
#

imagine being able to switch powers without having to go back through several portals

#

maybe then I'd switch it up

pliant radish
#

oh no, a 20 second wait

plush umbra
#

but previously it really was a matter of "do you want an emergency immortality button or do you want to sometimes chop down trees in like 1 less hit for 5 minutes"

dense yew
#

yeah you can go into debug mode and fly there πŸ™‚

supple jasper
#

that coupled with the same cooldown for everything

pliant radish
#

whats wrong with the cooldown?

supple jasper
#

elder and queen power for instance never lasted long enough to really do anything and took way too long to become available again

pliant radish
#

well they're meant to be used during a specific task. I've found them to be long enough most of the time, except maybe in boss fights or lots of travel

supple jasper
#

you can probably mine a single pillar with the queen power

pliant radish
#

pillar?

dense yew
#

you don't use it for the free eitir regen?

supple jasper
#

ashlands metal

pliant radish
#

that sounds useful to me

heady parcel
#

It's a design decision of course, but since they're on the same cooldown the powers could very well be made available at any time once you have made the sacrifice. All it would mean is the less combat oriented powers would see more use.

pliant radish
#

spoilers|| elder is now the one with the extra pickaxe damage||

supple jasper
#

right

#

they shuffled it around a bit

plush umbra
supple jasper
#

do the new combat items stack with the belt/wisplight?

shy marlin
pliant radish
#

yes

dense yew
#

I mean you just already get so much for killing one of the forsaken, the powers themselves being any more powerful than they already are feels like it would just be giving too much for free

pliant radish
#

they're a new slot type

supple jasper
#

amazing, I thought they for sure wanted it to compete with being able to see again

Since I have no idea if this conversation was even a follow on to what I posted a little earlier, which was, "OK, its official, my wife and I are both NOT a fan of the Ashlands. This is going to be nothing but a long, tedious, ugly, slog." I haven't even died. My wife has, but I expect that. She is reckless. Ashlands is simply a big "miss" with us. We have yet to find anything to like about it. Since its nothing like previous biomes, there isn't anything even aesthetically pleasing about it. Its pure ugly. Which I guess was he intent, but the only thing fun about this biome is the challenges, the fighting.

pliant radish
#

oh huh

#

personally I love the aesthetic of the ashlands

#

the storms are cool too

fossil delta
#

Yeah, well such things do tend to be individualized. We hate the aesthetics, we hate the storms.

#

Its purely unpleasant to even be there. Even just sailing in.

#

Which I imagine was their goal, we are told to expect "war", and that is usually hell, so... they succeeded in that regard. Its hell alright.

pliant hatch
#

You might start to like it if you find the gems, as they will enhance gameplay a bit.

Same could be said about magic, but since you don't want to use that, I don't think you'll notice any difference.

fossil delta
#

Yeah, we are not even using magic a little bit this time.

#

I'm not finding the combat to be a problem. At least not yet. We have not fought everything yet.

heady parcel
# fossil delta Its purely unpleasant to even be there. Even just sailing in.

I thought the sailing in there was the best part. The violent storm, the music, the monsters attacking the boat as I was desperately trying to steer that heavy-ass barge through the spike maze, and then finding a spot of shore I could lay to without getting slaughtered. It was awesome. After that the constant fighting can get exhausting, which is the reason I've paused my Ashlands run and am currently on a no-portals run on a new world.

fossil delta
#

I found all those spires to just be an exercise in frustration, plus the noise of the storms gave both of us a headache.

pliant hatch
#

The most important thing with Ashlands is to take your time.

You may find some Dvergr outposts, use those to your own advantage as the moment the Dvergr are gone, you can get some nice resources for a good quickstart.

Same with moving forward and exploring, take your time.

There's two of you, making it easier to have one fighting and one doing other things.
One of the most important things to do is destroying the "Standing Stones" as that will make your life a lot easier.

And keep a bow ready, as you may need it to deal with some monsters.

Once you manage to get to a fortress, your life will become a bit easier; as it's quite a solid place to turn into a base.

fossil delta
#

Is sound even important in Ahslands? I might just turn it off.

#

Yeah, we went in slow. Its why I haven't died yet. My wife was just being her usual reckless self. So she died a few times.

heady parcel
#

The only major gripe I have with Ashlands is that the terrain has a little too many "holes" in it, untextured gaps exposing the void beyond. Those are a bit distracting and I hope they'll get fixed before 1.0.

fossil delta
#

ITs a good thing I didn't die, or we would have been one of those nightmare landing stories I read on here. Gear lost, have to sail all the way back in, etc...

heady parcel
#

Haven't seen any such glitches in other biomes, except when a whole section has not loaded due to disk lag, but they'd go away just by relogging. Ashlands gaps are part of terrain generation it seems.

fossil delta
#

I hadn't seen those gaps yet, but we are barely even in the Ashlands

pliant hatch
#

Well, there are enough fires (Lava puddles) you can pull her out from in the Ashlands.

fossil delta
#

Yeah, but I wasn't able to get to her. So she died. She only died due to fighting once. The rest was environmental. Like those exploding red rocks.

pliant hatch
#

Next time, use a bow on those.
As well on the lava blobs.

If you're able to craft a new type of bomb, bring those, they're very useful.

I've still not died once to mobs in Ashlands. Several times to falling off flametal spires into the lava though. You don't have a lot of time to get out of the lava...

I am certain I will need it, because that is very much what she will do.

Hi guys

pliant radish
#

I'm actually playing such that I keep the gear I had equipped so I have no excuse to use commands I feel

fossil delta
#

It is usually pretty easy to recover gear in the Queens dungeon.

Queen's lair invites guerilla tactics. Rush in, throw some bombs, hack a few times, run and hide. Repeat!

west mica

Agreed

fossil delta
#

I run into weird camera interactions around the front door area. Every where else its been fine.

heady parcel
#

Camera shenanigans are usually zoom / terrain collision related, 99% of the time you can snap out of it by zooming in close to the character.

#

Same goes for any game like this, some handle it worse than others, and imo Valheim is one of the better ones

fossil delta
#

I'm usually zoomed in when I fight the Queen. Can't see worth a crap anyways. So maybe that is why I have not experienced getting "stuck", as of yet. I've had moments where it seemed like I might have gotten "stuck", but only a moment or two.

heady parcel
#

Yeah, camera issues are mostly a 3rd person perspective issue. If something gets between you and the camera, crazy things can happen depending on how well the game handles that. Zoom in close enough to the character you avoid the issue.

fossil delta
#

Well, now I have another reason to stay zoomed in as much as possible.

It's always worked before, so that's why I'm asking if something has changed recently

fossil delta
#

Weird. I have two iron racks on the left (I cook at the end)m cauldron on the right hand corner, then the new mead thing down from the cauldron, on the same side. All on a hearth. I did this within the last two months.

Then I have everything else placed around that hearth.

Yeah, I did.

Arigh, so I thought it might be the walls or whateve in my building interfering so I moved outside. Same thing on an empty patch of ground. There is no way to place a cauldron so it aligns with a cooking station and any part collides. Will require each kitchen to have three hearths from now on...

fossil delta
#

I keep the wood racks on my original camp fires.

#

Technically that is how mine now is. My original camp fires counting as a "hearth", then two new hearths, but I am able to put the two iron racks, cauldron, and mead station all on one hearth. Or at least I was able to, if something has changed recently.

As a vessel whose hull is crafted of some kind of petrified shell, it is logical that the Drakkar is heavy and slow to steer. BUT - just how sluggish it acts is something I as a sailor myself just can't get to grips with. It responds slower to rudder input than a fully loaded 1000-foot oil tanker... Yeah, you can argue that a steering oar is not a rudder but fact remains that with vessels of these moderate sizes the boat should remain fairly manouverable even if heavy in the water. I'd be okay with it being slightly slower to steer than the long ship, but the way it is... gods. It is pretty much just floating storage that happens to be ashlands-seas proof...

Water is often so close to Yag I have wondered if this particular use of water is why the Devs have it close to water. Most of the time.

pliant hatch

I'll have to keep that in mind.

Although in my case there wasn't water nearby.
And the nearest portal was near Hildir - yes, that's the only luck I had with that location - so running to that portal, jumping to the hub, leaving the area under the Elder Altar, getting into the water and getting back might have taken more than 2 minutes.

"Tailing" him and hitting him with a silver sword did work, although I got that weapon down to 48%.

The lack of stamina was actually the worst thing.

Never had Yag anywhere near water. But I've had him with several tar pits around, which sure made things interesting..

tacit crystal

He has almost always been near water, And a village, and Tar pits. This last time the water was a river that literally ran up to his altar. Plus a tar pit on the other side of that, then a village. Usually an interesting fight all around.

It went fine in terms of surviving and finding mats, etc... turning down the volume did prevent us from getting headaches again. We have also figured out most of the enemies we have faced, except the Morgen (sp?). That thing is so erratic, its hard to figure out how to melee it. We did spot a concerning enemy that looks like a spell caster, and its a 2 star. So we stayed away from that one for now. So while we are figuring out all the various challenges and how to deal with them, we still are not fans of the aesthetics. So we will deal with it, but we are not fans of the Ashlands. It will never be a biome we look forward to getting to. We will regret that it is time to go there.

What are the new traders, Hildir and the Bogwitch good for? I havent played the game since the mistlands update

foggy glacier
#

Hildir gives you access to some new clothing, mostly cosmetic except for the farming outfit. The bog witch has a bunch of ingredients for new meads.

pliant hatch
#

Both sell something that's quite useful for farming.

Hildir sells clothing you can either wear for looks at your home base - barely no armor - but which will also give stamina reduction.
She also has some fancy items you can use and one other useful item, which can't be teleported.

The Bogwitch sells a potion and ingredients for very useful potions; i.e. one related to taming; as well as ingredients you can use in feasts.
And feasts are food items with a longer duration, but at the "cost" of having an equal amount of health and stamina. And I believe one with health and eitr as well.

foggy glacier
#

Much better explanation than I gave.

desert yacht
#

The Bogwitch sounds a bit more useful tbh if Hildir just sells cosmetics

foggy glacier
#

the farming outfit is really beneficial. It gives a big increase in farming skill.

pliant hatch
#

Well, if you're a collectionist (like me) and are drowning in gold coins (like about everyone at some point), buying all clothing Hildir has and putting it on display is a nice thing to do.

Other than that, the most "useful" item she gives is actually her quest. Because that'll give you the opportunity to get 4 trophies and copies of her chests you can put on display in your base. Even after you turned in the other ones, as turning in more than one of each chest doesn't change anything she has for sale.

Ashlands no hit is so mentally draining, like yday i played pretty much perfectly got done with the third fortresses and some random twitcher just sniped me

#

So maybe it's snail run time

slow marching only run? πŸ˜„

Smelling the roses run - play the game normally Ragnar_laugh

i don't rlly enjoy spears all that much

But i did do no armor no metal which involved using spears a lot

don't think you can kill some bosses with pickaxe only πŸ€”

same with unarmed

Ngl, playing coop with 3+ people is impossible without multipliers

Meh, done it, was fine πŸ€”

The grind is just too much

Lowkey bronze age is phenomenal

Bronze Age is daunting

late dune

#

Make copper deposits small but make them give more copper

#

Please

late dune
#

idk why people say it's a grind, just employ trolls for mining lol

late dune
maiden tartan
#

You can clear 3 swamp crypts with the amount of time it takes to dig out a copper vein

tacit crystal
#

It's not as bad when you've learned mine from top to bottom, hitting only one deposit mines them bit faster.

maiden tartan
#

Also is it only me or digging out a small bit from the bottom never works

#

With copper, at least

maiden tartan
#

So the whole vein crumbles

late dune
#

yeah, it can be a bit fiddly some times

devout kestrel
#

maybe no attacking too?

#

dang i was on old messages

Are weapon combos intended?

i don't think they're intended but i don't think they really care all too much about them

@shy marlin A run where you catch a 5-star fish every biome before stepping foot into the next.

For me, at least

I enjoy these types of games in co-op

tiny tiger
#

It’s an experience designed for 1-10 players

west mica
#

I find when farming, either for loot or literal farming, it really helps to have a youtube video on in the background.
For important fights I just play with the game audio since its very engaging anyway.

maiden tartan
#

Ur never getting resources for 10 people without multipliers

#

Even double multipliers aren’t saving you

#

You’d have to mine out half a map just for copper to make bronze

tiny tiger
#

10 players should create enough output for 10 players

maiden tartan
#

Not to mention tin

tiny tiger
#

The problem is realistically the more people you have playing the less each player is contributing on average

#

Is the date of the next update for Valheim known?

tiny tiger
#

Nope

Call to arms is in public testing tho

I wanna step on the snowy grounds spoilers free

Best way imo

I play co op cuz thars how I was introduced to the game

Yo gng

#

what is best wepon type for killing wolfs?

#

sword maybe mace

devout kestrel
#

or adgeir

#

Shield to block then sword

devout kestrel

adgeir got area control

#

one secondary attack and then few normal ones

Any really, they have quite low health πŸ˜„

but yeah mace or sword should be ok

#

Okay okay

#

im making the silver hammer soon

devout kestrel
plain hollow
devout kestrel
#

but yeah bows are also safe since you dont have to be in contact with the enemy

plush umbra
#

Silver hammer? Frostnir?

devout kestrel
#

i assume so

plush umbra
#

Until u reach ashalnds

devout kestrel
#

flint spear maybe

plush umbra
#

Any spear, they have a more accurate drop rate and are way more accurate the more used to it you get, plus it is silent and can melee and does not take up another 1-2 spots of inventory with arrowss

warm sandal
#

I do love my spears... looking forward to getting hopefully more of them πŸ˜„

#

they are so versatile can be thrown and used to stab... just so good

plush umbra
#

My 1st spear was ancient bark spear, I wish I used the spear earlier than that tho

devout kestrel
#

spears normal attack needs a rework tho

plush umbra
warm sandal
#

I like it just the way it is πŸ˜„

devout kestrel
plush umbra
#

Call to arms fixes fighting on slopes and you can hit bonepilesd and stuff on the ground

#

So spear fixed

devout kestrel
#

but instead of what weapon

plush umbra
#

Its 100% more accurate than the bow once you get used to the way they drop

warm sandal
#

I use bows but spear is just my fav weapon ever... πŸ˜„

plush umbra
#

And again u dont need to carry arrows

devout kestrel
#

you need to get your spear back tho

plush umbra
#

I use bow cuz I'm not good enough with a spear myself

plush umbra
warm sandal
#

give me a spear against them bugs in the mist any day πŸ˜„ i left it at home for ashlands though... i am not stupid everyithing is pierce resist there πŸ˜„

plush umbra
plush umbra
#

Himinafl is probably best weapon to use in mistlands ngl

warm sandal
#

I hope the get back the purpose in DN... I just try not to use them in mountains... I can not be trusted to not thorw it and loose it in the mist below or such

plush umbra
#

Nothing is lightning resistant and it keeps enemies at bay like an aitgir

devout kestrel
#

after 3 days of looking at the lfg i havent found a single one that meets my requirements πŸ˜”

plush umbra
#

Himinafl is usable in ashlands too

warm sandal
#

frostner is good against the bugs but spear is quicker πŸ˜„ And I use it to summon them buggers to the entrance in a mine.. .helps clear out the stuff from the plattform in the entrance and not get swarmed by ticks πŸ˜„

devout kestrel

#

I'm noticing magic to be more and more useless as time goes on, ive only found 4 viable magic weapons and 3 are staffs 1 is a shotgun basically

devout kestrel
warm sandal
#

I do not like to demolish al barriers... I am a cautious gamer... I throw the spear at the ground and see what come running to the noise...

devout kestrel
devout kestrel
plush umbra
#

Frost staff, staff of protection and staff of the wild are really the only good staffs, staff of embers is okay in mistlands but honestly doesn't do the dmg I thought it would, staff of fracturing does most of its dmg hitting enemy directly making its aoe attack pretty useless especially in ashlands, dead raiser might be good with lvl 100 blood magic but rn its useless af unless I'm mining copper and they keep greylings off me, troll staff not to viable unless ur fighting fader, magic needs a huge overhaul tbh

warm sandal
#

It is rea funniy how I can not stop playing this game even after 3600+h πŸ˜„ i am right now waiting for the new updated to come out of ptb and then I will start a new run....

devout kestrel
plush umbra
devout kestrel
#

mb

plush umbra
#

And honestly frost staff sucks too unless ur comfortable getting close and personal (which i do) but than that kinda defeats purpose of using magic

warm sandal
#

the way I usually play the trollstaff is out of the game I do not go EES or EEH I usually go EHS and thus I never have enough eitr to summon trolls πŸ˜„

plush umbra
#

So 3 good magic weapons maybe 4 if u can use frost staff safely

#

Yeah like I said magic needs an overhaul tho itll probably never happen

warm sandal
#

I am perfectly fine with the magic staffs there are... playing mixed character they have worked nice for me

plush umbra
#

Playing mixed has been screwing me with inventory space

#

I now carry 2-3 magic weapons on me at all times I might grab a fire staff if traveling to a previous biome

tacit crystal
devout kestrel
warm sandal
plush umbra
#

Idk the more I use magic the more I realize it doesn't do the dmg it should and you cant really keep a distance and do loads of dmg at the same time which is why there is magic it doesn't make sense to me

plush umbra
warm sandal
#

well anyway I need to go sleep tomorrow 5am the alarm will wake me up

plush umbra

devout kestrel
plush umbra
#

I have all staffs maxed and nothing does significant dmg to those things unless I kite the mf around vines from wild staff 50 times

devout kestrel
plush umbra
#

I like using magic but lately I'm finding its just not as viable as I thought it would be

tacit crystal
devout kestrel
#

and then a 2 star askvin comes

plush umbra
#

2 star askvin might be as strong as fader ngl

#

Fought a couple now

devout kestrel
#

any 2 starred creature is scary in someway

plush umbra
#

Ive never had any feel like a boss fight besides a 2* askvin

devout kestrel
#

like finding 2 star boar and remembering you brought wolves

tacit crystal
plush umbra
#

I see em all the time

tacit crystal
#

2 stars?

plush umbra
#

Yep

#

Maybe I'm just unlucky but yeah no way

tacit crystal
#

Unlucky or lucky, depending on the point of view.

plush umbra
#

Lol

devout kestrel
#

my first night trying to tame a 2 starred wolf, i found one in a pack of 1 starred wolves

#

gave upπŸ˜ƒ

plush umbra
#

I had over 30 2* wolves at one point, had to kill 20 sum of em cuz they made the world lag like a mf

devout kestrel
#

when you breed em then yes that happens

#

when you let them breed*

plush umbra
#

I didnt even try

devout kestrel
#

then what happened😭

#

did you let them feast on your enemies?

#

I was today years old when i found out you can get a bunch of silver necklaces from the fancy tomb-like stone formations in the mountains

#

Does anyone know when the new update will be released for the stable version?

placid dust
#

nope the ones in the mountains ill find another one and send ss

#

i just dug one because it was next to some silver and was surprised by some bones which gave me some silver necklaces

well. I was told yesterday that enemies DON'T spawn on the player. Yet using devcommands has proven that to be false. I can use the "killenemies" command which will kill 15 enemies in this location, not move, use it again, and another 15 enemies will die. I really feel like this proves beyond a doubt that the enemies spawn on the player

#

constantly. elminate what's around, and another gaggle does spawn on you

devout kestrel

this is too much info on a guy that spends 80% time afking in my world

Clearing enemies to have them just infinity spawn around your area is bad gameplay imo. I'm glad you guys like it but I'm done with it.

bad gameplay?

the monsters have a spawning queue. and timers how often they are allowed to spawn in

I hope he spent less than 2 hours. but I somehow don't think so

since he was in swamps

#

but valheim ain't his type of game

#

re-reading all his lines

he wants a diffrent kind of game with set levels and mobs

#

don't think he ever played a modern open world game πŸ€”

5 years of Valheim and over 1500 hours, Valheim just might be my kind of game lol

I truly have no idea what they were expecting from the game, complaining about something that I'm not sure could even be implemented in any other way

When will the new update come to the game? instead of ptb

Are there any way to play somekind of public server on the game? On xbox

If you will start ptb be sure to make backups tho πŸ˜„

sinful stone

like what is the save button is not enough

merry pebble
# sinful stone like what is the save button is not enough

Depends if you start a whole new world or if you want to play on one you already have. If you want to continue to play on already existing one then go to the save manager in-game, select the world you want to play in and press "move to local" button, then the button will change to "move to cloud" and you press that too. That will make a copy of the world as it is now and save it in worlds_local folder in your local disc.

Any word yet on how much longer till the new update drops? Now that the coverart on Steam is the bear outfit, I find myself wanting the update every single time I go to hit launch

#

I started a new game right before it was announced and am almost done with the black forest πŸ˜…

#

do they usually spend weeks or months on PTRs? I havent followed the development that closesly

shy marlin
#

It varies but a month is like the average, just keep in mind it can go longer and shorter and to manage expectations

#

Most important thing is that bugs are found and are fixed b4 live

#

I'm not sure if I'd be better served for damage by putting a jade or an iolite on my nidhogg sword

amber galleon
shy marlin
arctic garnet
#

wait, did I say jade? I meant bloodstone. Bloodstone vs. Iolite for damage

#

Damage when low health or just a bit of added damage and a chance to do more without needing to be low health first

shy marlin
#

Iolite then

#

Bloodstone is rarely worth the juice given how much you have to squeeze

#

Esp on a 1h sword, if you're gonna go with bloodstone it's best served on a 2h sword or on a crossbow

tacit crystal
#

Bloodstone weapons look cool tho.

shy marlin
#

Cool but mechanics aren't there Rocky πŸ€™

arctic garnet
#

True. I was wondering if the amount of health I have to lose first for a decent damage buff would be worth it.

#

Calculated chance to hit and damage added by iolite as like a 14% damage increase.

#

I would need to be missing 70 health to match that math with bloodstone

#

which isn't a distressing amount but it's not nothing either.

tacit crystal
#

Well, at least bloodstone effect is not based on RNG.

arctic garnet
#

True, I'm not overly fond of RNG.

shy marlin
#

man i love gambling 🎰

arctic garnet
#

And I do love scarfing health food

tacit crystal
#

But it can synergize well with the protection staff.

arctic garnet
#

True, true

#

Went ahead and did a bloodstone anyways on my sword, already got an iolite on my bow

#

wait maybe i shoulda put jade on that
whatever
actually nah, let them come to melee, I want to hit them with my sword eventually

tacit crystal
#

Jade for mace, if you had to choose only one (IMO).

arctic garnet
#

Swag

near furnace
#

it may take months

amber galleon
# near furnace don't guess

I mean, that's mostly me being hopeful rather then actually guessing, I know it will most likely take longer

Do any of the inventory mods work with the PTR? I really cant play without my equipment slots and more inventory lol

near furnace
#

and don't play PTB with mods

daring sandal

makes sense

near furnace

since any bugs you will encounter will be moot since. is it mods? or game?

makes sense

near furnace

and things are subject to change

I only use inventory modificaiton mods πŸ™ˆ

Ok on my last run I was running into the mobs that drop the ancient seeds regularly, on this run, I've only ever seen ancient seeds drop like twice, but the regular mobs that drop the eyes spawn incessently, is this just a world seed thing?
