Yes. Once it's live then it's safe to switch back from PTB to live.
You can download the PTB right now and continue playing after it goes live, as it's the same content by then.
Any NA Call to Arms servers to play on?
Deathsquito bossfight
You might found people to play PTB with in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510
I think it's more like a 3 ⭐ Seeker Soldier.
Key word is might
Better chance as it's the dedicated channel for looking for servers.
I know. Still had no luck.
my gosh why are beehives so hard to come by lol
You need to search for ruined houses in meadows. They can sometimes be scattered further and sometimes can be found plenty.
Oh I know. Ive been taking my ship out now to explore more meadows haha
Really wild thing Im finding. Im finding meadow villages infested with those swamp guys
Yeah, they are found from further meadows areas. They're quite rare.
They usually can contain some beehives too.
found about 3 of those kinds of villages so far. Which I like cause it means I can collect their stuff without going into the swamp
Every viking quits right before they find a village with beehives in every house
I've even found bee hives in the Black Forest. Far more rarely than in the meadows. Its always been in the keeps where they can have the fine wood table and chair, and is usually inhabited by a brute. Pretty sure I have never found them in any of the other styles of tower.
Just went through the worst sunken crypt I’ve ever seen. Raked in a whole 12 iron! Lol.
Hello, is there any news about what happened after Deep North or is it still a secret?
Is deep north complete? I haven't been keeping up to date.
still nothing yet
I don't think vee hives can spawn in black forest structures
Maybe they were meadow structures in a blackforest
Optimalisations and bugs removal. That's all we know for now.
Once in my 1500 hours, this happen to me too. The Brute died by the bees, while I was fighting the mobs outside. (The Brute can't exit the tower, because of the door, and the hive was up under some floors)
Does anyone know what the little gremlin thing is on the top of server opts? Like if you go into the servers-and-lfg, into any thread, there is a red little dude
cannot wait for deep north
I hate desert/snow "biomes", I only like the first two, maybe swamp
No time like the present, time to ball out
🤙 only thing between me and the ending of a no hit run is fader
Can’t wait to see how this goes 👀
Hey all, just joined the disord. Are there channels for finding people to play with?
Yep 😄 look in #1024264966712340510
You would be surprised how many people dont see it 🙂
game sucks
Damn, this does not bode well lol
But you didn’t get hit? Or am I missing it lol
Ahhh I see. Bummer!
we go again
Nope. Its the BF towers with the fine wood furniture in them, with a kind of porch area outside. Found hives there too often for it to be a error or glitch.
Didn't think I had to be the only one finding them in the BF. Found them a lot more than once, though.
Just they are always in that one style of tower, none of the others.
what kind of challenge did you lose this time?
i afk'd from 1am till now at a surtling spawner, 23 cores thats it 🥲
show me where the evil dragon touched you 🤔
don't see any hits
The archer hit my bubble
oh no 😮
mhm, tragic
when deep north?
🤷 skill issue ig
how many accounts do you have?
Meanwhile I’m continuing my regular knife run 
🤙
1
sure hope someone got fired for that blunder
litterally same
I noticed that too, actually got me laughing pretty good 😂
i dont know that guy wtf
they share name now
is it really that time? 🧙♀️ ⌛
Bit early, but looks like it 
wizard time?
Witching hour
It's a running joke that basically whenever EU goes to sleep discord just hard dies and some craziness happens
It either gets crazy quiet, and everyone just kinda lurks around, or people start saying wild shtuff and arguing lol
Giant walmart parking lots ❤️
mr comic isn't "mr commedian"
dunno
But I just realized the bog witch has 2 latters and stackable barrels. What patch is she on?
patch?
ye she must be on a different version or know some tech 😂
i see
Dang troll destroyed my blueberry bush 🤬

EU goes sleep and NA is awake, is the craziness indicated by that fact? 
||Jk.||
lmao
hey is the black metal sword even worth it or should i stick to the axe
Swords are much better than 1h axes
tell hervor that
so i should make a black metal sword and not continue with the axe
If you like swords then blackmetal sword can be good. Or you can use axes if you like.
whats more useful like
But yeah facts are that 1h swords suit better for combat than 1h axes, but using axes saves inventory slot as it can be used as tool and weapon.
but its honestly just what i like?
Yes, all up to you.
Axe secondary is 1.5x damage, sword secondary is 3x
Yep, hence swords suiting better for combat. Also swords don't split damage between targets.
fair point but counter point whats more cooler a axe and shield or sword and shield
im just wondering cus like should i use mistwalker in mistlands or nah
mistwalker = good
Mistwalker is a very powerful weapon in mistlands and ashlands
thats what i thought
While jotun bane isn't a weapon at all
Or is, but objectively bad one.
Fishing rods and pickaxes don't punish you for hitting the enemy multiple times
ngl pickaxes are just decent weapons in a pinch like id rather mine someones skull open then just deck them
also i forgor how do i roll again lol
Jump while blocking
yea also any good ways to farm swords like should i just kill eiktheir over and over
Don't worry about your skill level, just use a sword while playing normally.
That's the best way to farm it because you're also making progress through the game
so just kill everything got it
If you really want to grind skills, and please dont burn yourself out doing it, grind a spawner like a greydawarf spawner. That will at least give you greydawarf eyes which you will never have enough off especially in the late game where you need to build a lot of portals.
yea ik about the portals i got a portal to a room full of portals
ngl im so glad you dont n eed materials to fix your stuff
also should i upgrade my stuff before i head out to mistlands or would it be fine
Anyone new to game wanna start a game with me? P.S. I am also new
Anyone down to start a hard-core world with me? I'm anew so I don't care how new ya are
Are there any new-ish NA servers to play on?
You hosting a server?
Is NA north america?
Yes
Dang i'm UK time zones gonna be well off
If we made a world could we both access at any time?
No it'd have to be hosted but what time is it for ypu currently?
Ahh gotcha
And realistically i'm only on late at weekends
@opaque sundial and yes I wanna host a new one
Any UK new players hoping to get into the game and wanna make a world? I guess i'm asking at the wrong time of day lol
going into mistlands, still have not found the bog witch in this playthrough
quite unfortunate
Speed and jump at the same time goes insane for mistlands exploration
Knife skill at 60 before Elder, wild
Thats a lot of killing.
Lots of dead things for sure. It helps that you get exp per hit, so it feels like it levels up crazy fast
Stands there waiting for the next draugr to spawn. Come on... hurry up, I need to hit level 60 in Knife Skills before I take on the Elder...
Don't ask me why Draugr came to mind first under the "lot of dead things for sure"
gosh, even re-reading that it doesn't imply you were killing undead creatures. Just anything living 😄
I wonder if any of the early spawners spawn faster than the others?
Skeleton vs greydwarf vs draugr?
they all feel the same speed so i can’t imagine there’s much of a difference
gd probably still the way to go even if you get more xp/min from draugr (more hits to kill) because of the loot
Dont forget the chance for a elite draugr to spawn
and the chance for them to be a starred 
I wish more Valheim players uploaded their builds to the Valheimian website to look at and even download 🙂 it is so cool looking at all the idea and builds
It would be cool but most of these builds from players have progression in them meaning players who download them just for the build might accidentally encounter items that are in later progression that they havent encountered
is there gonna be more content after beta end?
The game isn't in beta. Its in early access.
Thats what i wanted to say
I make simple, efficient builds
I just crafted a bronze mace and it is not in my inventory
Has anyone else had that happen?
My favorite thing when building is using iron beams, and then using any other structural support on their outside. It makes the component thats attached to it grounded. Iron beams needs to be grounded first and its reliant on its strength, but you can build really tall structures with it
All vanilla no mods
Bonemass wasn't as hard as I expected him to be. That's one of the best things I've noticed about this game. If you prep to the absolute best of what you have available to you, at least up to Bonemass, they're not too bad. Honestly the Elder on my very first go was probably twice as hard as Bonemass
ngl it would be cool sometimes that during storms you can get hit by lighting and it would say like "thor smites you" or smth like that
The only problem with that is it would be at inconvenient times for sure. In the middle of something absolutely crucial or even worse out at sea on a boat
Mid-serpent fight just 🌩️ and now not only do you lose the serpent but you gotta go get the boat
understandable but i imagin it only happens when thor spawns in the sky\
That'd make it pretty rare at least. Id say maybe there should be a reason for it. Maybe if you have died in the past 50 days youre immune so it's like "thor thinks you could use some adversity" and then you hear a laugh following the strike
punishing the player for no particular reason yes

When sailing with friends, do you guys all go in one ship or do you travel in a fleet of several longships?
depends if everyone is just going to a spot like to make a single base then it would be one ship but if its like a mining/collecting thing then its mutiple cus more cargo
Makes sense. Im thinking of each of us using our own long ship bec have had a few moments where people get lagged out of the ship randomly in the middle of the ocean
Does multiple ships mean multiple serpents
depends
if you run them close to each other, only the "chunk owner" will make a diffrence
but if you run all over the place, you will have multiple chunk ovners and multiple chances
Any ways to locate haldor? I know it is random but any external emthods?
You can plop your world seen into here and it will show the places they will spawn. https://valheim-map.world/
how do i check my world seed?
After you start game and click "Select World" and your list of worlds pop up. It's the string of numbers and letters on the right next to either a cloud or a floppy disc.
Thanks!
You bet.
https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/1n9vbc2/in_a_hole_in_the_ground_there_lived_a_hobbit/ is something like this possible without mods?
have you ever found enough rocks spawn together to attempt that?
Does anyone remember the command to see detailed character stats?
Write /stats in chatbox. Use PgUp and PgDn to navigate them.
Hello friends. Can anyone teach me, how to installa Mods? i already got installed Thunderstore Mod Manager but i dont know how to make it work 🙁
Type /printseeds idk if theres the s in the end i forgor
Thanks!
You can ask from folks in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966

It's currently in PTB patch, so keeping the conversation related to said patch is directed to those channels. Not everyone look at trailers and some try avoid getting spoiled.
oh...ok, makes sense

can i beat velheim with only fist weapons?
People do it naked and doing th bosses in reverse, when there's a will there's a way
Flying enemies will be the bain of your existence
Ashlands with just fist weapons will be not fun beyond beleif
more long and painful
Thankfully the flying enemies get to ground level there so theres that
yes
kick as second attack is lame
Than stun though
anyway i'll be playing a new game i bought

About this.
ah i see thank you
Spoiler tags won't help.
Please remove it, as that line is only to be discussed in the PTB channel.
And no, I didn't make up that rule.
do i need to ?
i have not mantion new weapons new creature etc
Ahhhhh its so easy to forget
Sorry, I'm done with this conversation, before someone brings stuff up related to patches and I get it wrong again
If you remove the first part where you name the weapon, it'll be fine.
I know.
I mentioned one thing that's in the trailer once and almost got burned by a few other members here about mentioning it. While it was something the devs released themselves.
So in general I avoid mentioning anything that's related to the PTB. Even when it IS in the trailer.
Yeah, not everyone watch trailers and some folks actively want to avoid spoilers from upcoming patch.
Then why be in the discord if they wanna figure everything out on their own
My brother wont join the discord at all cuz he likes figuring stuff out as he plays so when I tell him about cool stuff each new biome I gotta leave the cooler stuff out
Well, some might leave and some mute the server so they don't get spoilers that way, some still want to participate in conversations about the game but not get spoiled by new content of upcoming patches.
We have right channels to talk about the PTB stuff.
yea they've confirmed achievements in 1.0
wdym
i just meant would it come out with 1.0
yea

Fair. will move to the PTB channel
Is the new Valheim update out? I can’t seem to find the bear even after searching for half an hour
are there any plans on adding collection cards to valheim?
The update is currently on PTB version, meaning not yet live.
is there a form or website to put in request to developers? I want to request if possible to add Bethesda.net to Xbox so Xbox can add mods the same way Fallout 4 uses this platform within the game
You're one of those folks who'd prefer finding a bear rather than a man in the forest, aren't you?
bruh i come across bears so many times
in the beginning i would carry half a hotbar of torches
In this Ashlands runestone, it says:
When the King of the Emerald Flame flew south to visit the wizard king of the Fulings, his own thegns rose against him and torched the palace with the Winter Child inside. All of us who were alive at that time heard the shriek that sounded for the nine days of the fire and echoed in the city's streets for many weeks longer.
Those were the last good days any of us knew, before the return of our king.
Why would Fader fly south to get to Plains?
I would imagine he wasn't confined to living in the ashlands
And Fader + Moder are Father + Mother, so he could've been hangin out with her
idk
hi im kinda new to the game love it already though but dumb question how do you get o play in multiplayer mode do you have to have other friends playing the game for this to work?
It gives "he left his home and they torched it" so I thought he'd have flown from what's now the Ashlands, but ig he could be in the mountains.
i cant find a bear i added the beta to a already existing world is their any spawning problems with that?
You should talk/ask about the PTB only in the PTB channels.
Isn't it stated that the Drakes are the male and the larger dragons (Moder) are the females? Is Fader + Moder a legit thing in the game's lore?
O!ptb

Not sure exactly, I just know that the translations go to Father + Mother, and seeing that they're both dragons I just draw the conclusion 
The Drakes are listed as Hatchlings in the game.
So if they're dragons, they're still young ones. Not the males the runestone mentions.
Let you who read me be aware of the Frost wyrms, one of the most ancient kins sprung from Ymir's body.
The most common form of the wyrm are the Drakes, the small males that cares for the offspring. Most often they can be seen poised by rocky nests guarding the eggs. In contrast, the females are much larger and a rare sight to behold, but once angered they provide a vicious foe.
I mean it says the drakes are the "small males"
Hello! I have a small question. When a deer gets alerted, how does it alert the other ones around it? Does it generate noise, or sends the alerted state in a radius? I think it's based on line of sight
they smell you too
No they don't.
They either hear or see you and get alerted. But they don't alert others.
I was under the impression deer could smell you if you were downwind lol.
Same. First yt video I watched when I got this game
Probably the same I watched.
Just a long-standing internet myth
I thought there was something that spread the aggro to other mobs nearby and I assumed it was direct.
but I guess, maybe its not the agro that pulls nearby mobs, its the sound of your hit landing.
I totally believed it with the troll's idle sniffing animation
Yeah that is correct. This is why the Huntsman's Bow is so awesome, because it makes less noise than the other bows, so you can e.g. snipe fulings in their villages without pulling down the entire village on you at once
AI is weird. It can act so strangely at times, plus the way our brains naturally assign agency when there isn't any, we often think its cleverer than you think. And I'm talking about old school game AI here not LLMs.
There is no smell mechanic. Mobs either see or hear you.
Gary Kasparov went nuts over a specific move the Deep Blue computer made in one of those famous chess games... he said it was from a superior intelligence above and beyond what he expected from the AI. Realistically, it was simply a very good move that Deep Blue saw as the logical conclusion based on its programming.
Except in the Ashlands, where they detect you thinking about them from 3 islands away lol.
I love that little bell concert when you repair all your stuff after a long outing

I’m just wondering is valheim very going to be put back on gamepass by any chance in the future?
It’s a genuine question I have
i think it was there already?
It was taken off the gamepass since the contact run out iirc 🙂
Finding some strange islands. Decided to sail around this island to see how big it is, but had to turn around because it turns into Mistlands further east, but not before revealing it's got Bonemass on that same island, and just now I see a Jaggy vaegvisir close to the shore. It also has an absolutely massive mountain taking up most of the centre of the island. This was the first swamp I found on this world... This here is why starting new worlds is so fun. 🙂 #screenshots message
Anyone tested the boar breeder by broadbent in the new ptb? I built it and it seems the boars don't eat through walls anymore? I have tried dropping the carrots for hours now :DDD
Please keep PTB discussion in the correct channels.

hey i heard that the jump stat makes you jump higher and lower stamina is it that true or does it only lower stamina
It only makes you jump higher
ah ok
Gods below, this island just goes on and on
and when you think it ends, its 2x the lenght you have already sailed ahead of you.
Aye, I'm getting scared, if I die and lose my ship here it will be a nightmare to try and recover it
Reminds me of that time I built a karve and 5 rafts to recover my items from an island where there was a mosquito there. Didnt know how to counter it back then.
Yeah I'm surrounded by Mistlands on all sides now, serpents have bashed up my longship so it's about to sink - and I'm in swamp gear still 😄
And my plan tonight was to go straight to the mountain and find onions, but then I couldn't resist "just checking what's beyond that bend"
throw down a workbench and repair your ship really quick?
Not about to land on mistlands, one seeker would spell my doom. Plus I heard a hooter just now
holla
when deep north gonna came out ?
i am so excited to play it
i hope it's before christmas
The Trumpet of Doom
I'd rather lose my ship on mistlands shore than to open ocean to a serpent, but that's just me
Oooh I see swamp trees, I might make it!
a troll just one tapped whaaat
Oof
Leeches crawling over sand banks to launch themselves into the sea to stalk one's ship, they look delightfully creepy
Any tips for fighting Geirhaffa? I have a lvl 3 silver sword and lvl 3 wolf armor. I have never seen such a hard boss, even the Queen was easier. Should I return when I get plains level food? I feel like what I have is not enough
hypothetical, you're approaching the shore of a swamp in your karve and you're in swamp tier gear. You're only going there because the only sunken crypt you've located in the whole region is right there, you're about to pull in and an abomination spawns on shore. Wyd?
Pull back out to sea, land a bit away and approach from another direction to either just lure it away or kill it
anyone wanna play ? i dont wanna play solo anymore
Check out #1024264966712340510.
nah, there's a few videos out there that kinda disprove this.
I see a lot of people are playing on vanilla servers, is it generally frowned upon to use client side mods e.g. inventory slots if you're joining a stranger's vanilla server?
Finally made it all the way around that island, it was immense. I estimate about half of it is Mistlands. I can probably use the southern bits as staging point when going off to Ashlands later on... #screenshots message
I have a question, so I'm wanting to make a new casual world with some friends, and I was wondering if anyone can recommend any seeds that are friendly for building. I'm looking for an area that's somewhat large, and flat, and above sea level so i can dig a cellar.
There's so many islands on each world that you really don't need a specific seed for that, all you need to do is explore a bit.
Haha love it when fish jump into the boat
Lvl 2 grouper be like EAT ME
I prefer multiplayer to have seeds with smaller islands personally, but home is where you make it
yeee, I could see how that's beneficial. If someone was to play with multiple different groups of people everyone could have their own designated island. This is mostly just for me, and maybe one or two other friends. I mostly enjoy large build projects, so try to find seeds that look both interesting, and useful for what I have in mind.
a random troll just spawned in front of me while i was looting a random abandoned shed 😭
YES! Onion seeds.
are there any mods that improve the spawn logic in this game? With vanilla settings, the game is constantly trying to spawn and maintain a set amount of enemies within about 10 meters of the player per biome the player is near. Which can become quite obnoxious depending upon the situation. For example, a single crumb of black forest in the middle of the swamp will still spawn a full compliment of greydwarves even if the blackforest biome is only big enough for one tree.
I don't want enemies to cease existing or to be passive but I would like to be able to clear an area and know it's clear for a bit. The way it currently operates is more akin to a horde shooter than a survival game.
I'm aware of the current mechanics that'll stop enemies from spawning but as I've stated, I don't want that for various reasons.
I'd ask in #mods-discussion
okay, thank you.
guys whats the next tier of a bow after crude bow
Finewood
finewood, you'll need to cut down birch or oak or find a shipwreck to obtain
ty
what do i need to cut it with
flint aint working
minimum bronze axe for hardness, but you can try knocking other trees into them
Or using a troll
now problem is
idk where to find bronze
secondly im not risking to be sent back to the lobby by doing that
you get bronze by mining both copper and tin, and refining them in a smelter. you'll need surtling cores from a burial chamber to make a smelter, and a forge to combine those into bronze
upgrading your bow before doing burial chambers will definitely help you get surtling cores
what are even the burial chambers
they are dungeons in the black forest, filled with undead enemies. Usually there are skeletons outside their entrances
i think i maybe found one? but it was like a tower
no these are underground, although skellies do spawn at towers too
if you don't have a wooden shield yet that's also gonna help you a lot in the burial chambers
if you got like 5 bones already, i recommend upgrading the club once
how much finewood i need for the bow?
Torches are also useful in lue of shield, as they can be kept offhand as well as used as a club for fire damage
uhh why?
skellies/undead take increased dmg from blunt weapons
And depending on luck (or bad luck) there can be quite strong skellies in the tombs
i got 3 only
there can be a few bones lying around in the meadows too, under some stone contraptions idk what you call em
dolmens
how do they look
like stonehenge with a roof
one block of stone resting on a couple of others
big stone on smaller tall stones
A skelly can spawn there at night, once
Oh, you got 3 spam accounts now?
ima need a photo cause like im so confused
Hello will they ever add alcoholic mead?
The game does not have an intoxicated effect but its implied all the meads have alcohol
i just realised my windmills dont face the right way to the wind
Doesn't matter. They will turn the top so the wind will blow at it from either front or back and thus make sure it'll operate.
no i know that i just thought it was interesting the windmills face the wrng way
Wrong way in what way?
IIRC they should face the direction the wind comes from.
wouldnt the mills just face the way the wind is blowing
got club upgraded once, i might try a chamber
bronze isn't found unfortunately however it's made with two ores that are found in the black forest
how do you mine copper doe, with flint tools?
have you defeated the first boss?
n you have to kill eiktheir and use the horn to make a pickaxe and mine it
thats how you get your first pick
or yu can use a troll with a log to swing at the copper and mine it for you
bruh
no i dont even know how strong he is
noot that strong
your gonna need leather armor
He's the Tutorial boss. So basically a weapon and shield can kill him. Bow and arrows can too.
already done
just get gud at blocking and rolling and use the bow
upgrade it to max
its gonna take a lot of hide
also using wood and builting around the summoning alter will help
cool beans so you need to go to the boss alter then use 2 deer trophies on the alter while they are in your hotbar
what is he weak to
eiktheir normally spawns outside the alter so building inside the alter will make it hard for him to kill you as long as your good at rolling and blocking
blunt dmg? thrust? or slash
spirit i think but you cant get that untill mountains
nothing rly but the bow is the easiest way to damage him without getting punished
yeah like, i just started 2 hours ago, i still havent roled
Stagger, Chop, Pickaxe is what he immune too
hes weak to nothing i think
well for early game only hes weak to spirit but by that time with mountains gear he shouldnt be a problem
fire arrows work nice
block and jump
flint arrows would be better to use due to higher damage
also remember to get the cape even though a cape doesnt do much 1 armor is 1 armor
its pretty expensive
for me atm
its understandable its expensive but honestly even having 1 more armor point can save yoou
dont upgrade the cape
make sure to eat three meats for the fight too
so i either farm like a dog or go now
boar deer and barry
i have neck instead of barry
necks better
i got a dream cutscene
they dont do anything
ok
there just fun to read
sadly they stop coming after a while
alr
i had a world with abut 800 days and i still got dreams
i would wanna open my server but idk how
great place to find people to play with
I'm afraid that's only the beginning. It'll be a lot worse with other things.
But eventually you will get better tools, better weapons and better ways to get your resources.
Also, if you want more resources to make the "grind" easier, there are world modifiers you can use to increase the amount of items dropped.
You can adjust them even for a game you already have started.
Just return to the main menu, select your current map and there's a button saying "world modifiers" showing in the left (I think it is) part of your screen.
Click at it, select the one for resource drop and increase it to your liking up to get more drops from an item.
Nice thing, with 1,5x settings, you often get two instead of 1, as the game rounds the numbers up instead of down.
I'm waiting on my buddies rn bored
personally i use 1.5x items to stop things frm getting too grindy
wait if i press quit it also stops running my game right? so i just go with log out
also i suggest you dont use mods when you first start off i did and i screwed myself cus my mod stopped getting supported and my old base and my intire world collasped on my old world
lets play fr
you gotta log out and turn select the server option on and put a password on it then log in
im down
alr alr
quit game quits the intire game, log out logs you out of the world
how about i start the game and ill dm yall the password and ip
yeah but i dont wanna lose my progress
let them host they should know
i rather start on my world 😭
ok so i think i gotta use the start server option input a password then start the server
yup
coorrect!
alright the pass is easy ima just dm both of you the name and pass
You won't loose your progress if you join somebody else's game with the same character.
Your world is saved the moment you log out or quit the game.
then once you're in send the join code
ok thats good to know ngl
wheres is that gonna appear
dm us the password so nobody else joins take are stuff and leaves with all are stuff
thats the seed I think
it is
yeah it is....
you gotta find the invite code
on it
the join code is found once you log in then you press either ESC or your controller start button then the join code will be at the top

Can happen every 43 minutes if any requirements are met.
Can creatures get smoked?
If they happen to cross your path, yes.
Oh, you mean the fire kind of smoked. Sorry, I'm a little cooked today from my COVID booster.
I got my mine a few weeks ago and i feel that
I think they can, I'd recall someone smoking deathsquito to death in some short clip.
anyone here is EU?
word
You could try your luck in #1024264966712340510
EU might mostly be sleeping during these times.
it's been so long since the last time that I forgot that raids are a thing - let's just say that I definitely got surprised by skeletons and so did my only pet boar 🙁
Moment of silence for your former oinker. 🙏🏻
why is black metal scrap lighter then black metal
Because weights of ingots follow the logic started by bronze ingots, which took 3 different ores to smelt.
thats stupid
Not exactly, I think it's safe to say they considered it a good place for the scrap to ingot weight ratio. Scrap needs to be farmed/transported in mass, but you can't make it too easy, and ingots need to be hefty enough to consider what you're carrying around more carefully.
yeah that doesnt make sense, an ingot is a volumetric quantity, aside from density which wouldnt account for that variance
Making sense realistically and deciding it's a good place to leave it for gameplay are different things.
It should be the other way around if you ask me, and copper and tin should simply make more ingots altogether. Metal ingots should have less weight because you remove impurities by smelting and getting the scrap to a usable form.
so copper and bronze weigh the same, tin is 2/3 and it takes 2 copper 1 tin to make 1 bronze, so there is a 20 unit loss in weight, assuming ingots are the same size
is the flint spear worth using over the flint axe?
you'll want the axe for chopping wood, unless you already have something better
... i'm obviously not talking about resource gathering?
well they are totally different for combat
Spear is the best weapon for meadows in my opinion.
Though flint axe for chopping wood is also very nice, much better than the stone axe and just as easy to make and upgrade.
Spazzy uses it exclusively, and he is a pro with it
I usually rush both of them honestly
Not going to make a formal suggestion but I will open a topic for debate; The karve would be the perfect boat if it had 2 more inventory slots. I don't need to make massive metal runs, it takes time to process it anyway so gather more while that's going on. It's fast enough to rival the longboat in most situations and considerably more maneuverable.
Thx4listening - go!
Removing impurities works for ore, which is why you are left with 1 bronze ingot and it weighs less than the ores combined. Iron scrap isn't necessarily the same, as it's already refined iron being melted into a usable state.
It's the same deal with iron ore
Right, which is where the decision to leave it as a consistent weight statement came from.
Does spazzy know his username is offensive? 😅
yeah, he changed it
Good on em
He wasnt really a spaz either, so it didnt fit
I'm carrying both
was this said by the devs? Just curious
Also Iron Scrap is kinda the same, its description is "It's old and rusty but can be smelted and used again" and rust is not entirely iron so when smelted down, it should still be less.
That'd be assuming the amount of rust if any anyways, but no I'm not mentioning the devs, I'm recalling my statement earlier.
Yes there is something(s).
Man o man, here I am back at it for more Valheim :3
and I gotta say, I banned bonemass as my power this time -- and this game is so remarkably dangerous without it.
The wolf raid feels absolutely nuts without bonemass. I've gotten it 8 times so far (playing with that raid slider maxed and it feels so frequent now! In the past, even maxxed, raids still seemed rare!)
BOTH of my 2 deaths so far are to that wolf raid, I'm progging plains atm
I turned all 3 of my boss antlers in to pickaxes and when I'm on early copper ore runs I go through all 3 of them + the bronze I make.
Axes I'm usually ok with just the one, I can usually get enough wood before it breaks and gather other things.
It's easier to just make a functioning shed for your workbench imo
I just move it from node to node that early, always found it faster
4 walls 2 roof corner pieces - bam - done, I can whip one of those out in nothing flat now 😆
ya exactly
you don't even need the corner pieces to get the workbench to be interactable
What you use?
Just the 2 roof pieces, connect to the side walls and angle them into each other
Ah
just 1 roof won't need any support 🙂
I'll have a go at that - thx
also easier to rebuild if you get unlucky and a troll decides he doesn't like your craftmanship
I mean roof corners aren't that much more wood, and it looks more aesthetic imho :p
for sure xP I skip them only because it's a temporary thing for that node and will be dissembled
Are Ashlands only on the bottom of the map?
yes
Good
i only carry one pickaxe
Do you all notice a big difference between the antler pickaxe and bronze pickaxe?
Kinda... i guess its supposed to be like that. You cant upgrade antler pickaxe for example
I just unlocked bronze gear, i don't see the pick?
It is not in workbench but in forge if i recall and you might need some other wood for it
probably birch. which means I need the bronze axe first I'm guessing. that was my first bronze piece I was planning on anyways. doubles as a weapon, and upgrade to my axe
Bronze pickaxe requires Bronze, Core wood and Forge,, not workbench
yea i already have the forge
Core wood doesnt require bronze axe. Birch requires but it drops fine wood
core wood?
is that a wood type in a different biome?
all I've seen is birch and beech
Yeah it is different wood than fine wood. It is from black forest. Pine trees drop core wood. And some others like Oak tree if i recall.
Pine trees actually only require stone axe but i would use flint axe or bronze axe
Birches dont grow at all in black forest but in meadows
Tip: you can get Fine wood earlier if you find a shipwreck and smash it. You can get fine bow that way. Im not sure if it drops core wood too.
Core is from Pines, specific to BF.
Fine is from Birch and Oak. Oak is specific to Meadows, Birch is Meadows and Plains.
Until you hit Mistlands/Ashlands - all other tree types are just normal wood.
Wait, Ancient Bark from Ancient, but that sadly is not a building material 🙁
Yeah true, but shipwrecks can be in Meadows beaches. If you hit them enough they get damaged and drop Fine wood. That way you can get some much earlier than waiting for black forest, copper and tin ore and then coal and smelting them. It is usually enough to at least get a Fine bow, much better bow than the first meadows bow.
Can Eikthyr break Birch trees?
I dont think so. not sure. but sounds difficult. shipwrecks are so easy...
Difficulty would be based on altar location.
If Eik is in the middle of a Birch grove, they will naturally break some of them down for you without even trying.
sadly no
😭
but the the beech trees that eithyr break can sometimes be just "enough" to make the birch tree fall
but it still needs to be cut/rammed to get the material
best thing that could happen is that when the birch tree is in its log form the nearby falling beech trees can dmg it enough that either the birch tree logs or beech logs can dmg it enough to break
No no, the best thing that can happen is a Troll wanders in while fighting Eikthyr 
lol
He can then smash all the birches.
tbh its actually faster to just find a troll (preferrably the one with the log) so that he can cut down trees for you
Maybe in your world. They are a rarity in mine.
they dont spawn in meadows no?
They do.
Rare is my experience with them across all biomes.
They definitely do. Near beaches. You can find plenty of them
if i have a public test server, if I back it up, will I be able to play it once the update (call to arms) comes out?
You can find plenty of them.
That's going to be very seed-dependent.
*Should
👍
seed generator shows where shipwrecks are if you really wanna look. but near water always
I kinda like the idea of broken shipwrecks at sea floating of which the player can go to and loot
it adds something to the ocean biome
The shipwrecks are near land, at shores. I think shipwrecks at seas would just sink
Eh, endurance is noticeable if you're a pedant keeping eye on daylight/food timers - I more noticed karve > raft, especially going back and starting a new world.
Though I'm a bit of an ocd 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 <break> move < 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 <break> move < etc kind of collector, so I do notice the difference in the rhythm of the swings when moving to a more damaging weapon/tool.
Come on....
lmao
Bait used to believable
Hm the main part the ship itself will sink but things like supplies and stuff the ship is carrying like chest or other light stuff should float that the player can loot
Hmm that would go to suggestion section since afaik game doesnt work like that at the moment.
Probably chests etc are not airtight and would get wet and sink. I dont know for sure though
And stuff like that, ocean currents would move them far away anyway
Shipwrecks appear only in black forest, swamp and plains.
doodly noted
What’s going on with the update?
Still on PTB.
Draws a shipwreck in the plains, swamp, and Black Forest 😂
Don't forget the stone formations shaped as a ship in the meadows. Those are wrecks as well
Dumb question, but, how do you all make so flat areas for building?
Using a hoe and a lot of patience
What I meant were the wrecked ships that drop finewood.
Queen fight is the actual worst fight by far in this game
so many adds and no weaknesses on boss, tanky as hell, massive attacks
instanced so no way to prep or disable mist
But also instanced, so you dont have extra adds on top of that
You can use the safe room at any time
eh, could build walls or spawn proof arena
it'd be the same but with a lot less 'no seeing = engaging gameplay!!'
In my huberis I built a wall around the fader arena lol
That turned back into rocks very quickly
fight her as a mage (shield, fire attacks) - she was always on distance and in the highest position in the room, you can see everything and run in cycles
yeah we're firuging it out
seeker brood are the actual boss they just walk up pop shield then oneshot
quietly
I still dont know how I beat queen first time with no deaths lol
Fader put me back in my place
She laughed so hard from you tickling her, she laughed herself to death?
Something something thats the reaction I normally get from the ladies
Fader is easier imo
I know for next playthrough when fighting the Queen that atgeirs or bile bombs are key to dealing with the little minions
otherwise if you just stick to melee you can't get anywhere near her
One of the biggest things about queen melee is that you can s key out of pincer slam
I like Krom secondary between the melee attacks.
I used the sledge and A LOT of bile bombs, also fire arrows when I ran out of bombs. If she's burning she can't hide...
Also why I like bringing draugr bow + spinesnap for queen
2 different bows? I assume cos one has less stamina charge cost?
or the poison effect
Spinesnap when you can see her (more dmg), draugr bow when she's hiding yet if you can find her once/ you can track her with poison
Dangit, got drunk and forgot an entire cart of silver up on the mountain, now I need to go back and find it

because RNG 🤔
Oh how I enjoy the times I get to smack drakes in the face up close
not helpful 
you mean those pesky sky-rats? 😄
The very ones!
putting your fenris claw through one is nice
Oh now I remember why I left the cart up here, the mountain is riddled with golems and I was low on food. Tactical retreat...
God I love sailing in this game. Just tried to pull a serpent into shallow waters, but of course it got loose as we neared the beach, thus commenced a long chase through the storm. Freaking awesome. In the end I simply killed it for the meat, too far out and offshore wind...
One of my pet theories is that ocean update got cancelled because they're making a sailing spin off game and wanted to keep the best ideas for that.
Sailing really is a relaxing part of Valheim. Well, until the storms and the sudden roar of a serpent lol
That sounds like a wonderful delusion to have 🤣
A little more in the ocean would definitely be welcome
They are suppose to take a look at the ocean biome after releasing Deep North right?
I hope so, because atm, it's entirely possible to go through the entire game up to Ashlands without ever seeing an enemy in the water
Tbh this game has enough busywork as is, I like that sailing is real downtime for relaxing
Agreed, sailing is really nice and relaxing, even when the occasional danger noodle decides to say hi 😄
It's just a lot of the game-- I remember my first time through I didn't know what enemies were in the water so I intentionally avoided sailing during storms...
Which lead to me thinking enemies didn't exist in the ocean my second time through xP
That was back before Ashlands released
I guess Serpant scales aren't used for a lot, but it was weird to suddenly discover them afterso much playtime
We will have to wait and see if something is done to the ocean 🙂
There is really not much we can do apart from that.
Still praying for Fuling Pirates. 🙏🏻
ha, that would be cool but I think that might require quite a bit of work
Also would be quite strange if you had a chance to encounter enemies from 5th biome just by sailing, since you can do that all the way in meadows 🤔
Seeing as the Ocean is the highway connecting the myriad islands of Valheim, I'm not sure filling them with enemies would be the best idea. The serpents are quite enough actually, especially now with the bonemaws in the south. But a chance for starred serpents near the edge of the world, and maybe later game uses for the scales - I'd love a serpent scalemail with fire resistance for example. Don't take me wrong, I'd be happy about some more detail to the ocean and perhaps the ability to swim a few paces down to get stuff that has sunk in shallow water, but I really would not be crazy about getting into fights 24/7 when sailing. It would just turn water travel into a chore. But, ocean specific mobs that you can actively seek out and hunt, that would be another thing. Just as long as they're not everywhere.
I don't pray for easy things!
Draugr raiding parties. Coming in rotting long ships out of the mist to raid coastal bases..
Hell yes.
I will meet everyone half way with Greydwarf Pirates. 🤝
you are overestimating the devs' capabilities...
then you aim to disappoint yourself
Boy you're a ray of sunshine, aren't you?
Just pulling stuff out of my arse that I think would be cool, not what I expect them to do... 🙂
Also, can I get the lore on why some people have the flower and fire emojis on their name?
there are like 100 things that should be easy to tweak or change and have been there for over four years
now imagine something nearly impossible for them to do
Oh ya, I agree-- Definitely not filling them with enemies for sure. That would kinda suck, especially if you play normally with portals not allowing certain materials through.
But I would like the serpent to have different spawn conditions. Like maybe they are a rare spawn during the day, more common at night and during storms...
Maybe make the storm spawns have a chance to be starred. ETC.
That way the scales material and abyssal harpoon kind of naturally work their way into the player's progression
instead of, imo, being completely skipped most of the time
Flower - Smiffe started a cult one spring
Fire - came around with ashlands ptb release 🙂
Thanks!
That's nuts.
I play with no-portals, so I'm doing a lot of sailing 😄
I normally get 2-3 serpents each night and a storm spawn roughly half of the (daytime) storms I pass. Swimming in serpent meat...
is there already a some what a release date on when deepnorth will drop?
Not rlly no
Nope, we still have no idea 🙂
Once combat update is pushed out, we know that deep north is the next major patch
Several people are typing. 

What's expected in the combat update? Honestly my only issue with Valheim's combat is the elevation issues
Combat update is in the ptb if you wanna check it out
That is what the update adresses 🙂
oh neat
You can read the PTB patchnotes here (if you don't mind spoilers): #news message
You can also join the PTB to test the update before it goes live.
Czy dalej istnieje możliwość zdobycia Odyn dlc ?
Can you still get Odin DLC and how?
no
No, it was only for pre-release testers iirc
@gusty blade Use magic vs the Queen, it’s a long fight but can be done by using skeletons and fighting from the top. Jump down when she gets too close and repeat.
how would you ever corpse-run if you died?
New mechanic: Corpse swim.
corpse swim?
Perhaps the pirates are not aggressive or are always on the move so it's unlikely they would still be there.
sounds very unpiratly 🤔
Then they take your stuff and you have to get it back. Super piratey.
Hah, in wow your spirit form would (will, dunno if the mechanic is still in) would run on water when running back to your corpse. But in Valheim we form a new body at our bed, so that's not an option..
that sounds an interesting programming challenge for a mod developer :o
the pirate fullings
it's basicly impossible to do
and wouldn't make any kind of sence
enemies tend to slide on moving objects already
so all fulings would simply skid of the sides
ohh :o
and the boat would navigate like a a piece of garbage floating around
so you would have the worst kind of bad things ever combined
yea ...
Sounds like it would be easy to get my stuff back from a junky boat with 5 Fulings swimming behind it.
i was assuming how that could be implemented, but with those problems, good luck :O
I'd settle for draugr raiders coming in on a longship out of the mist hehe. Same problems I wager, but the mind-picture I'm imagining looks cool 😄
When are we getting the battle royale that Robin was talking about
I think you should read / listen to the entire interview
I read it though? What did I miss
valheim was planned to be a viking battle royale. but plans changed
so you won't get a battle royale
these plans was like. 2000 years ago
and you didn't have the budget/resources
it was other things even before that
a racing game
A short and very early demonstration of a racing game I'm working on
mind blown yet?
Hello, how do you activate god mode, please?
That it's a joke. That the whole battle royale thing is too absurd to take seriously?
I should point out that this is a server hosted on Nitroserv.
This explains so much about the carts. 🤯
Except apparantly not
Asksvin racing game when irongate
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console#Cheat_commands
but the command is not available when connected to a Dedicated Server with vanilla Valheim. There is a mod available to enable those commands for admin users though.
A little bit, as far as I was aware Fejd was originally an MMO, then changed to Valheim. I knew about the dev assets for the space game but I assumed that was also an MMO-concept before the setting changed
alot of concepts runs through until you find the path you want to take
Smiffe acting as tho valheim isn't currently a racing game
Is spine snap a considerable upgrade over dragur fang?
I would say so, yep, but you can still use draugr fang is you really want to 🙂
Ugh Asksvins take so long to grow up
Ok, nah I made the spine snap. It's so easy to upgrade to lvl 3 as well, just finewood and bones.
50 minutes, yeah
But you can do other stuff meanwhile 🙂
very much so, once you get south. Spirit damage is king.
Have to stick around anyways and wait for others to hatch
Not much to do in the Ashlands anyway
Did some looking at the wiki, and as far as raw damage goes, it may even be better than ash fang.
I usually export my Asksvin eggs. When I get to plains and make my base, I include a huge Lox pen. Once I get to ashlands, I convert it to an Asksvin pen.
Ashlands introduces many cool things.
Just have to look forward if Deep North will introduce cooler things. 
I would imagine it will introduce things which are cold
I'm convinced that the Fader item will turn out to be some thing to mitigate the effect of the cold so you can actually go there
Ashlands was pretty hard locked so it would follow
how early game is the elder?
2nd boss
cuz we are on a raft otw there
GL!
first time using the raft. the different speeds are weird
You should already have a better boat if you’re going to fight the elder
Make sure you create a bed or a portal locally
as far as I can tell, use 2/3 speed if u have the wind, 1 speed if u dont
I think i unlocked the bronze stuff, but don't have the bronze necessary
don't plan on fighting the elder, just exploring near it
Yeah you would be safer in a Karve lol. I took a raft out to the Elder but that was because the gap was just slightly too far to swim.
we have okay armor tho
i have 12, my bf has I think 16 or so
and around 100 max hp
Just bring lots of fire arrows
i only have flintheads
I'm sure you'll be fine
You can make the fire arrows locally its quite easy
You just need feathers wood and resin
that feel when you first discover a plains area and you're in swamp gear and two 2 star Fulings gank you within 10 seconds
ahh it's another meadows here
so at least the coast is safe? i think
welp a wolf killed us
You ended up in a mountain bruh
I'm aware
man i forgot how much of a damage spike the plains is holy
my max weight is 450 now? why
A secondary attack from one of your weapons (especially mace or polearm) should be able to stagger it, they only have 70 health
Corpse run buff most likely
You may have a fancy belt
Ah or this
ah it's gone now
Yep, lasts a minute, basically just long enough for you to get away and regroup 🙂
completely useless for the circumstance I was in, strange buff
If I was to share my seed and a screenshot of my uncovered map, would anyone be kind enough to tell me where to look for the remaining charred fortresses?
My last 3 beach landings didnt get me anything lol but I dont want to spoil it for myself by uncovering the whole map
Sure
Awesome! One sec
Sorry about my bad annotations, basically anywhere I've explored the forts are done
Even if I didnt uncover the island all the way to the edge, I got close enough to see where the ocean started
Love that, thanks so much, on foot or in a boat?
uh both would work
yup, if you're still missing a fortress explore that mainland island a little more, really hard to see with your markers (I do the same thing too though not judging)
Hopefully one of the portals I left laying around is near there lol
I'm up to ASH15 at this point
Ugh my Bonemass is half a world away with large plains and mistlands in between. Need to explore north and west and try to find another I think
You'll be glad you found them when you do need a plains and a mistlands
On my 2nd world I got an Elder which seems to be half the map away its insane
Yeah. It's a no-portals run so setting out on a large journey like that is kinda dangerous, I had to run back after realising this plains was rather big and I was running out of arrows. Not geared to take lox on in melee just yet...
Sword low on durability too haha
Will try by sea instead, try to bypass most of all that
Any tips for the Ashlands? Going in for my first time
do dungeons respawn with loot/mobs eventually? or nah, gotta find more dungeons for more surtling cores?
No respawns
Be prepared, be ready to fight non-stop to establish a foothold, bring mats to build portals and set up a stonecutter. Frost arrows are great. And don't be in a rush - scout the shores before you land and if possible take out anything that looks bad from far away.
so it's that type of game, huh: after another skeleton surprise, I decided to build a wall around my base to protect from the archers. I was half way there when a cold wind blew from the mountain... guess I need a stone roof too
I've never had that raid ever, I've always taken Boney and Moder in the same outing. This will not be possible now in my no-portals run, they're almost an entire world apart. Bonemass in the southeast, Moder near the map's edge in the west. So I suppose I will get to know the mountain winds this time around...
I find that drakes often don't attack if they can't see you, that raid isn't terrible honestly
Only one type of dungeons do respawn some mobs and certain resource inside, which comes in Mistlands biome.
Also it is dissabled eventually 🙂
I dont even know what that is
You'll eventually figure that out. 👍
If i ever make it that far
1500 hours and i still suck at fishing
When does new bear patch come out?
Nobody knows 🙂
Yooo new here from Ireland. I'm doing a live stream of me building a ship using the raft mod on twitch, I'm playing all my own music I create from home everything from, rap, rock dance synthwave, experimental pop and so on if anyones interested in hearing some new music and some suggestions for this ship would love the help ! 🙂
does anyone wanna start a new world PLS i need friends
#1024264966712340510 is the best place to look to find someone in your timezone and area of the world to play with
Nice, where in Ireland?
yeah i'm done. The mountain biome is hot garbage. It's a blizzard 50% of the time i'm either finding nothing of interest (not talking about the wishbone) or getting hunted, the terrain is miserable to exist in
The game was fun up until the mountain biome. Mountain biomes are terrible
I love Mountains ❤️
literally ruining the game for me
maybe i'll come back one day but it's actually a miserable biome. If I do, I'm gonna look up what I "need" in this biome, get it, and get out asap
I love Mountains too, I often use it to gather stone if I need it for a build, by secondary way with the silver or when needed sometimes even just mining the rocks for the vibes and the atmosphere. Mountains can be progressed through very quickly if you want to,
get the seeds from a chest, mine some silver you don't need too much unless you really want to make the gear and weapons, and also grab a bit of obsidian for the workbench upgrade, then all you need is 3 boss spawn things, kill the boss and once she is dead you're ready for plains and if skilled enough can even do reasonably well there in the swamp gear depending on what you made.
boss in mountains is sometimes a little harder to find, but not as hard as the boss of the 5th biome
also not sure if you tamed boars in meadows but there is another tameable creature available in mountains too which is fun
I got the seeds, I have 3 dragon eggs to summon the boss thankfully. I happened upon 2 together. and I got 4 or 5 silver spots marked out. Sounds like I just need to plant my seeds, mine that silver and gtho
don't forget the obsidian need a few for workbench upgrades
oh yeah that was everywhere so i grabbed it and made the upgrade
The dungeons are pretty cool for the experience, and the materials are useful. But not required.
i will say I did enjoy the 2 dungeons I went in minus the bats
as far as I'm concerned it's the only redeming quality of the biome so far
the dungeons unlocks a rather cool set as well
oh yeah the one that makes me go fast
Idk if I have enough of the material but that would be a really handy set I imagine
but you can progress through with only a tiny amount of silver if you choose not to make much gear etc, silver is heavy to transport
and you need a trophy from a cultist to make the full set, drops relatively rarely and might need to do a few more dungeons for full set
yeah i didn't know the cultists had trophies. That's gonna be rough to get as the caves are pretty rare
yeah if you do want that headpiece you're gonna have to explore more mountain biome for sure
I do like it but the progression there is usually quite fast
from my experience how things roll on my servers
I feel the same way, and the music is nice.
Played on a server with friends today, using that 1.5x on mats. Thats effectively doubling everything. Including cores. Gets kind of crazy pretty fast, when your still operating as a group. If we all wanted our own base, with our own kilns and smelters, it would be OK.
I think the resource slider makes things too easy if its nothing above normal. Havent tried less scarce
I think it just shows that its situational as to whether or not its balanced when compared to the default setting. Things are much easier compared to default in our situation. IE because we are playing as a group, not a bunch of individuals. So all the extras are a LOT of extras.
Hi, is copper ore being 10 weight and the bar being 2 weight more known by devs? Like is this a balance thing?
It’s been that way for a very long time so it’s definitely intentional
This is a English only discord. Please respect that.
he left 🤔
He respected it that much. 
For a builder 1.5 mats is kinda reasonable because you need alot of mats
and 1.0 is just not cutting that damn mustard
weird question but are there any "off meta" ways of getting tar? i know you can get bronze and iron bars from doors and braziers of ice caves
Outside of tar pits I don't believe there is another way.
I often see people recommend bronze armor be skipped and troll armor used. Fair, but then what about once youre into iron age? I see people say skip iron as well since its a waste and instead wait till you get silver. Is there a point where one of the metal armor sets becomes actually necessary and you can't just skip over multiple biomes without metal armor?
its such a pain
you technically dont need any armor if you dodge good but i tend to make metal helmets while sticking to troll hide so i get some more armor while not losing any movement speed. you definitely dont want to waste iron bars on armor though if you plan on building with it. once you get silver you can skip padded into mistland and ive done playthroughs where i went all the way to ashland wearing the fenris set
id say you really want upgraded armor for mistland going into ashland and beyond since mobs swarm harder than greydwarves
Objectively Bronze armour is such a small armour ugrade compared to troll leather that it hardly makes any difference. Iron armour however srarts to actually protect you, so I would argue it is worth making if you enjoy a more tanky approach to combat.
Personally I have skipped bronze the last few times but crafted iron. Troll is way too wimpy in mountains, wolves bite hard.
"Necessary" is a tricky phrasing, because everyone plays differently. The game gives you different options for this reason.
Interesting. Im currently running a root harnesk at level at the max i can get it to before level 5 workbench, a bronze helmet and close to max troll leggings. I see that iron gives me like 2 more armor rating over the root harnesk. Is that a big amount?
yes, but, it's still nice to hear different perspectives
if youre not playing tanky its good until fenris imo, just jump when a wolf bites
The first heavy armor I usually craft is the silver chestplate. It’s pretty cheap and also gives frost protection, so you can skip wolf cape and only later go for lox cape
Ah, well I would phrase it in a way that incites that conversation then. "When did you find it necessary to use heavy armor? Or are there people here that never use it?" etc.
Iron is too precious. I save it for padded later
silver armor + deer hide/troll hide cloak thats fully upgraded for the armor value until full lox/wolf cloak
mistlands
Iron upgraded gives more than that though. Root harnesk is a liability in the mountains due to fire weakness, don't bring it into caves... (and its signature pierce resist does not benefit you against any mountain mob).
I skip all cloaks before lox. I’d rather have the inventory slot than the few points of armor. Hide cape is also hideous af
Understandable haha, Soldiers are no joke in close quarters.
Aye, I keep hearing good things about padded armor, if I aim for that would it make sense to skip silver armor or would it make more sense to skip iron?
fair, silver chest + deer cloak actually doesnt look bad. the fur pokes out on the shoulders
they can be dodged and dodging/moving is easier in lighter armors especially fenris set
Skip iron, craft silver chest at least
I kind of want to get an armor set that I can hold onto and still be somewhat powerfull rather than having it get obsolete by the immediate next biome
Padded is good and super cheap
what weapons do you use and playstyle?
I'm just giving credence to your point, I know how armors work 😅
I play with 3 others. So far me more of a jack of all trades. I use mace, bow, serpant tower shield.
If you are an archer mainly, keep full root set. It’s amazing with the set bonus
in my current playthrough i went all the way to silver armor with just the new armor set+troll coat which is roughly equal to full troll armor.
Its fine as long as it matches your playstyle and you dont wanna facetank everything. I died to many trolls because i fat-fingered my block or dodge buttons.
def hands on fighting, but when I was using buckler, I was also parring and doging
whats the new armor set? bear?
i dont wanna spoiler here, there are channels further down with that information

Tower shield is only good for bosses. Parry is the name of the game
aye, I like both, been using the tower shield bec finally killed a serpant on shore lol
I mean it does look awesome
but its very close in armor values to troll when used with a troll or leather cape(40 to 43 overall armor)
if you use tower shields you should be more tanky so its worthwhile to make heavy armor. you can technically skip swamps as long as possible and go into ice caves in bronze but you really shouldnt tank things in the mountain since any damage taken can push you back off a cliff
Makes sense. Right now, we about to fight bonemass. We have like 1 reinfornced chest almost full of iron. I know we'll need more but trying to decide if I should splurge on that iron armor lol
also you should go sailing and get harpoons for serpent scales, the serpent tower shield is amazing against pierce and might be useful up to ashlands?
nah save it. make iron picks and go find silver imo
aight, like someone said, I'll do the chest silver armor first
and maybe mix match
have fun

Iron armor is really expensive and won’t even help much for bonemass. I would also recommend to save the iron for later.
GL!
Sounds good
I used troll armor until I got fenrir set ngl
I persoanlly wouldnt have got past Bonemass without iron armor.
If you're comfortable dodging and jiving skip it.
But its not an obvious skip like bronze. If you're not super confident it will give you a nice margin of error in both the Swamps and Mountains.
Alternatively, you could get the Root Harnesk and made the iron helmet and trousers.
In a lot of situations that will be better than full iron, obviously anything where youre taking peirce damage, for example those infuriating 1/2 star Draugur archers.
god damn it, the horde of bats sieged my fort and killed all the boars on my farm....
next time i'll cover em with the roof
We had drakes swoops in and kill our boars. Hamheim was unfortunately one of the casualties.
Rest in peace piggy pal.
You need to punch the drakes when they do stuff like that 😄
I was punching them with arrows but they are hard to kill. XDD
This was with a finewood bow so damage was less than optimal.
should i mess with some mods to help me in vanilla for fun or just play vanilla all the way through blind
any time savers?
For the full experience i would play vanilla. After 500 hours i still havent used any mods
After 1,1 K hours i still see no reason to use mods personally 🙂
And first run should always be vanilla imo.
I would at least do a full run or two before getting into mods. Still haven’t used mods yet, I’m right at 1k hours
kk ill do that then
almost 1,8 of vanilla and impatient to "finish" ongoing playthrus to experiment something i didn't focus on before
If you want time savers, you can up the resource drop rate in world modifiers. 1.5x and 2x are common choices for singleplayer folks who don't want to spend as much time on the grind.
And dont give up, we all know how frustrating Valheim is at some points, especially getting in new biomes at a ccertain point. And of course as a new player.
right, more drops is ok and will save time, i wouldn't go further than that tho, there are all kinds of modifiers but risk of ruining first play (wich is gold and diamonds) is too high imo
-# too impacting on playing and managing strategies, wich is fun to learn
seem to be getting stuck around bronze-iron
on my 2nd playthrough made mistake taking character to play on a server with some cool people
Hey , some french for explain me exaclty what mean "Valeur Défensive" pls ?
so is there a public server i chould join?
So far I haven't died at the Ashlands!
Thats a flex
How long you've been there? 
They havent been yet
But it is technically true, they havent died in the Ashlands
I personally died 0 times in the Deep North
Got here yesterday probably have around 4 hours in the biome
