[tame perch]

we dont have elemental bolts 💀

[neon steppe]

i wanna fish with bow and spears

[pallid linden]

I feel Im gonna fit right in this community

[novel dragon]

Any suggestions for Ashland early weapons

[pliant hatch]

Silver sword is going well against the Charred.
Spinebreaker and the Arbalest do well against the Voltures.

As for magic: the bubble, fire and frost staff are your best weapons.

[novel dragon]

Oh is the himminafl any good in ashland

[silk dome]

how to make window

like decent looking window

early game

[pliant hatch]

I've never used that weapon, so I won't know.
But anything doing pierce damage isn't doing that well in the ashlands, as the most annoying creatures are resistant or neutral to it.

The advantage Spinesnap and the Silver sword (and Frostner) have, is that they're doing spirit damage; which helps a lot.

[cosmic verge]

Bears look gnarly

[pliant hatch]

Depending at how large you want it to be and whether or not you have access to bronze:

Build two 2x2m wooden parts on top of each other. Build one 1x2m wooden part next to that, with another pair of 2x2m on top of that next to it.
Build the shutters at the outside of the 1x2m parts, with the small poles touching the 2x2m
Build two shutters on top of each other.
Close the top part with another 1x2m.

You can open the shutters separately to let light in, if you like and close them for the night.

Later when you get into the mountains, you can find something that will give you the ability to build "glass"; which you can add into that wall.

Another option to use instead of the shutters would be to build a door over the 1x2m bottom part.
That way you can't get through it, but when you open the door, it feels as if the window is open.
However, to me that option doesn't look as "beautiful" as when using shutters, even though you would need to open four shutters compared to one door.

[rugged bridge]

Really just a utility weapon for staggering and the little bit of lightning damage

[tacit crystal]

Lightning damage adds to stagger, so it's neat and still staggers most mobs with the secondary attack.

[queen harness]

not even halfway close to getting actual black metal weapons and im getting raided by fullings
genuinely so unbalanced

[heady parcel]

You won't have new biome stuff when entering that biome at first, and the raids are unlocked when you pop the boss of the biome you are leaving. Recurring pattern, something you need to plan for throughout the game.

[tacit crystal]

Hey, free black metal delivery to your base!

[queen harness]

that would pretty nice if shamans didnt exist

[tiny mortar]

chickens dont eat thistle right

[queen harness]

like almost every fulling ran away

i killed only 3

[queen harness]

so basically i have to suffer even though i dont have the biome's gear
noted

[pliant hatch]

Nope. They only eat barley, carrot seeds, turnip seeds.

[tiny mortar]

no onion seeds?

i thought they also ate all the tree seeds and dandelions

[tacit crystal]

Not thistle, but dandelions.

[tiny mortar]

a shame, ive got plenty of thistle that i dont need anymore

[tacit crystal]

Tree seeds other than acorns, pine and fir cones.

[pliant hatch]

Onion seeds may be possible too; but I never tried those.
Usualy I got loads of turnip and carrot seeds and barley available by the time I got the eggs.

[tacit crystal]

They eat onion seeds too.

[tiny mortar]

sorry for my questions about what each thing eats i always forget and im often unsure 😭

[tiny mortar]

fantastic, i recently planted too many onion seeds

[cosmic verge]

Is it possible to bring ||dvergers|| all the way back to spawn using boats?

[tacit crystal]

From memory:

• Boars: mushrooms (not yellow), raspberries, blueberries, carrots, turnips, onions
• Hens: carrot/turnip/onion seeds, beech/birch seeds, barley, dandelions
• Wolves: neck tails, boar/deer/lox/chicken meat, sausages
• Lox: barley, flax, cloudberries.

[tiny mortar]

WOLVES EAT SASUAGES? this changes everything......
also i tried flax with lox and they dont :(

[heady parcel]

I doubt they would stay on the boat. But if you aggro one, you might trick him to swim after you all the way back. But then he'd keep trying to kill you rather than hang about the stones.

[tacit crystal]

They should eat flax.

[tiny mortar]

hmm.. thats weird.. will recheck again later

oh wiki says they do... must be a fault on my side

[tacit crystal]

Maybe it ate something already? They can easily eat cloudberries that were left on ground.

[cosmic verge]

Trying to find ways to bring them back to spawn for a mini dwarven village build

[pliant hatch]

Nope.

They're neutral to you at best.

Meaning they fight the same enemies as you do when it's needed.
And they will fight you when you do something they don't like.

[tiny mortar]

everything is possible

when theres a will theres a way

[heady parcel]

It would be easier to just spawn in a couple with dev commands methinks

[tiny mortar]

you can push them onto the ship with a tower shield perhaps

[tacit crystal]

No need to have shield to push them.

[tiny mortar]

makes it somewhat easier

[cosmic verge]

[copper bramble]

or turn ff on and use the harpoon

[heady parcel]

Pretty sure that makes them angry though..

[copper bramble]

ah for dvergers yeah don't attack them

[silk dome]

Is there a chimney

[pliant hatch]

Nope, but you can create it yourself.

[silk dome]

How tho

If i just leave a hole in the roof then rain pours trough and fire is gone

[copper bramble]

put a roof on the hole

[chrome badge]

Raised roof section above the fire

[copper bramble]

raise it with pillars snd put a roof of the roof where the hole is so that the roof has a roof

[lilac dock]

reeeeeeeee

[silk dome]

Will smoke go trough?

[lilac dock]

no

[pliant hatch]

One option is to use the 2m standing wooden beams at each corner of the hole.
Then you can put the roof closing piece (the one looking like an upside down "V") on top of it.

Another option is to leave a 2 roof piece gap and build a 2x2m wooden wall at the sides. Close one side off with a roof piece, but make certain it won't touch the other side. Usually the 45° roof pieces are good for that.

[silk dome]

Roof do the roof

[copper bramble]

use brain

[chrome badge]

#building-ideas message here's a helpful visual, look at the top center of this roof

[lilac dock]

[pliant hatch]

In general the only limitation when it comes to building in this game is your imagination.
When you start, it doesn't have to look beautiful. Just make certain it's functional.
Over time you will learn to combine beauty and functionality.

Which means you can even build the fire outside your house, put a roof over it and it'll work.
Put your bed at the other side of the wall, put a roof over it so it isn't exposed and you will be able to sleep there.

Does it look nice?

I don't think so, but others may have a different opinion.
Does it work as intended?

It certainly does. Although even about that others may have a different opinion.

[wicked snow]

Are these golems on cocaine?

Why do I get 50 golems every time i go on a mountain?

[orchid locust]

good thing they spawn so often, so it's easier to farm crystals 😂 (and their trophy, if you really want it)

[wintry valve]

game is sending you free crystal

[wicked snow]

no thanks

[orchid locust]

but they're relatively easy to avoid, all things considered

[wicked snow]

they are tanky as fuck

they spawn like 20m away

[orchid locust]

and you could even ride on top of them and start pickaxing away

[wicked snow]

1-2 are fine but like 5-6 per every 10min is insane

[wintry valve]

they are relatively easy to kill with pickaxes

[wicked snow]

easier, not generally easy

[orchid locust]

I mean, all mobs are easy to kill once you know their attack patterns, so that sentence can't really be used as an argument

[wicked snow]

wrong

[orchid locust]

it takes me roughly 10 seconds to kill a golem with iron gear...

[wicked snow]

Golems are tanky, it gets easier but dealing with so many in such short intervals is not fun it takes too long to kill em

[orchid locust]

but I was dying left and right at first

[wicked snow]

with cheats probably lol because aint no way

[orchid locust]

it takes longer if they don't attack me, actually

[wicked snow]

show me for 10 seconds with iron gear you killing it

[orchid locust]

because I can parry them and deal almost half health of damage by the time the stagger wears off

[wintry valve]

For real golems arent as tough as you think they are

[old radish]

if you play on very easy .. they are easy

[wintry valve]

dont get me wrong id probably hate having to deal with one every minutes or so, but they arent that hard

[orchid locust]

I play on Hard...

[wicked snow]

bs

[orchid locust]

and technically I lied, since I was using the silver shield, so you're right, it's not entirely iron gear

but I was using the iron mace, since the porcupine doesn't really help

[old radish]

ok now you're talking out of your ass, mace against the golem dealing more dmg than the pickaxe?

[wicked snow]

I think you mixed up greydwarves with golems

[old radish]

smh

[orchid locust]

time-wise, yes it does

[wicked snow]

10 seconds with a iron mace yeah sure

[orchid locust]

I can only say "git gud" I guess

I still get my ass kicked by all the stuff I'm still not used to, but golems have literally two attacks (three, depending on the golem)

eat health food and parry

[wicked snow]

I kill all the bosses in 5 seconds on hard with meadows gear lol

[wintry valve]

they are actually "weak" to blunt damage. I didnt know that

And by weak I mean not resistant like pretty much all other damage types

[rugged bridge]

Their population is more dense than anything other than drakes on the mountain which is pretty stupid

[wicked snow]

I'm just saying that a golem shouldnt appear every 5 min on a mountain

[rugged bridge]

Entering the mountain you wouldn't expect 50% of your fights to be with the actual mountain itself

[orchid locust]

it has a cooldown of 10 minutes

[wicked snow]

EXACTLY! I expect drakes, wolves no problem

[wintry valve]

Also I think that if you dont kill the golem, it stays there

[wicked snow]

well tell them that because I shit you not, it's been less than 5 min since i killed 1 and another 5 min before that

[rugged bridge]

Running into several golems back to back across a few minutes just wastes my sanity

[orchid locust]

every mob stays where it is, once spawned

[wicked snow]

it just spawned from the same spot too

[orchid locust]

there is a limit of 1 golem per chunk, I believe? but if you're adjacent to many full mountain biome chunks one will try to spawn every 2 minutes

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_zones

[wintry valve]

Well, put a campfire on that spot. It shouldnt spawn anymore.

[orchid locust]

and they so happen to have rought 1/4 of chance to spawn every 2 minutes, so yeah...

[old radish]

Sejiro you dont understand, the golems were spawning more and faster than the wolves or drakes

[rugged bridge]

To be fair I am used to high mob density from beta client ashlands but at least it had variety

[orchid locust]

I also heard something about silver veins contributing to their spawn or something? Don't quote me on that

[wicked snow]

on my map it's a big island with at least 5 mountains, often bunched up by 2 not too far

[old radish]

when i have to mine 2 silver veins close to each other and i have to kill 5 golems, thats not right

[rugged bridge]

You touched their rocks

[wintry valve]

imagine a golem raid

[shut wagon]

is there somebody to start a new char with and progress in the game

[pliant hatch]

Considering they're resistant to pierce, having a load of Ballistae at your walls won't help much.

On the other hand, there's a reason I build my bases on an island.....

[pliant hatch]

Have you tried looking in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510?

There's often someone in there who might.

[wintry valve]

bonemaw raid

[rugged bridge]

Still wouldn't be as annoying as the bat one

Every time there's that one bat who I couldn't find that comes and bites my ass 3 days later while I'm doing something completely different

[pliant hatch]

Won't do me much either.
I'm making certain I got the entire area spawn proof.

So far the only thing being able to enter my base are bats, drakes and the occasional wraith.
For anything else I got a leech moat (base is a plains island bordering the swamps at one side) who deal with anything but the swamp raid for me.

[wicked snow]

After Moder is dealt with Im not stepping on a mountain in this playtrough, never had I even had so many golems spawn, before it was one or two per trip

[hardy rover]

If you reset world modifiers, do you reset the settings only? i have to double check this

I cant even remember i used custom modifiers on my OG save

[neon steppe]

hoping we get new normal building pieces and DEFENSE pieces for bases in 1.0 update

so i can turn raids on one day

[pure berry]

Discord link keeps taking me here for runeheim am I here?? Lol

[orchid locust]

@wicked snow https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FwMUlSpyYj-lHvJY_Z01Jgq6Ggom9xyG/view?usp=sharing
I lied, it takes 20 seconds, not 10 on Hard (you can do the math on the rested counter).
If you have better health food or a stronger shield you don't get stagger yourself, allowing you to dish more damage more quickly.
Considering my food wasn't maxed out (I was missing almost 10 minutes of it), you may even not be staggered with that food combo. If you add another health food you don't get staggered, but you might not have enough stamina to hit the golem as many times while it's staggered. I can post my world settings in #screenshots if you want.

[neon steppe]

damn it, i need to dig just 1m more for my basement but that last meter is water

is there anyway to drain it or something 😄

[orchid locust]

(and strangely, it took me that long to find a golem... the irony of not finding what you want right when you're looking for it...)

[orchid locust]

there is no way to drain water

[neon steppe]

😭 well atleast it's only gonna be used for storage so it doesn't have to be pixel perfect..

[orchid locust]

also notice that I'm avoiding the big smash it does with both arms, since that one is definitely un-parryable with that setup, and I'm willing to bet you can't parry even its normal attack on Very Hard (should try on my next playthrough). I'm sure I can easily parry even the stronger attack with plains food/gear, since I've went on a golem hunt not too long ago for the trophy (and a chest full of crystals)

[pliant hatch]

Why drain if you can raise it by 2 meters?

[neon steppe]

it's too late for me to start terraforming now 👀

i would've preferred 4m tall basement, but 3m is fine

[flat vector]

I love valheim 🙏

[heady parcel]

Oh I've been there. Digging a basement in an existing house and realising I built too close to the sea to have a basement in the first place. Oh darn... Well, at least I could hide some of the workbench/forge upgrades that litter the floor otherwise!

[flat vector]

If ive planned it out I typically build the bottom room layout first, If I know I wanna basement. But kinda hard to tell if youve already built the top part

Man building never gets old, so many possibilities even with the limitations. Lmao I started out with a nice hut, and its grew to a whole compound. Sorta got a building for every amenity

[wintry valve]

I built some kind of cathedral

[pliant radish]

One time I built a really tall tower that went as high as you could go with raised terrain and iron beams

But at the base there was a lore stone or whatever they’re called jutting out of the stairs to the tower

I learned to pretend it didn’t exist

[silk dome]

how can i make my hammer go from building to repairing

[wicked snow]

choose the hammer icon after you right click the building hammer

[silk dome]

choose how

im on pc playing with controller

oh i know

[pliant hatch]

"equip" the hammer, bring up the building panel and "scroll" to the top left of that screen until you're over the hammer icon.

[silk dome]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[pliant hatch]

You can repair the hammer when having a workbench with a roof over it.
Click at the workbench, and to the right of the screen is the list with the items to craft.
Click at the hammer symbol to the left of that list and you will be able to repair all items you have previously crafted in your inventory or at that workbench.

Later when you get other crafting stations it works the same for items you craft in there.

Meaning at some point you will be moving around between two - three crafting stations to repair your outfit / weapons / tools.

[silk dome]

how do i stop the decay of cooked meat

[pliant hatch]

You will hear a loud "hiss" when it's ready.
When you keep the pointer over the cooking spit you will also see that you're able to pick it up.

Do so and it will move in your inventory / drop close to the fire.

After that you will be able to put new items on the cooking spit.

It might take some practice, but once you know when the right signal triggers you won't miss one again.

[silk dome]

i know but

how can i store the cooked meat

without it decaying

or does it not do that

[pliant hatch]

You can store it in any chest.
And food won't decay in your inventory.

Actually, it won't decay at all. Even if you drop it on the ground.
Just make sure that when you do that, you do it near a workbench.

[silk dome]

thing is it has like a red fork next to it, made me think the food can decay

[pliant hatch]

No.
The colours of the fork mean if they're mainly adding to your HP (red), stamina (yellow) or both (white).

[silk dome]

made me think decay mb

[pliant hatch]

NP.

[gray sand]

And Blue/Purple for spicy.

[heady parcel]

That comes a wee bit later though

[wintry valve]

radioactive food

[heady parcel]

That's the bukeperries

Or the game's most disgusting food item - the muckshake

[gray sand]

Bukeperries + Rotten Meat + Magic Shroom = Magical Damaging Vomit when?

[heady parcel]

Puke all over your enemies for massive poison damage!

[noble birch]

lol my copper ore just got sucked up by my furnace 20 mins of work gone

[fossil delta]

😄 😄 Nice! Doing a new solo play through, and got a bear trophy on my first kill. Gott love RNG!

[merry pebble]

Heh, would love to see Scales attempting "puke only" challenge xD

[heady parcel]

Bugger. When I was fighting a two-star fuling the rest of his gang descended on my longship and hacked it to pieces. Nails sunk out of reach.

[fossil delta]

Always irritting. Not as irritating s it used to be, since I make sure to get a ton of iron, but still...

[heady parcel]

I built a long-ass pier to be able to leave the boat nearly out of render range from the beach, nothing has ever bothered it out there until now. Don't really understand why they went for the boat and not me tbh

[fossil delta]

They are supposed to target you, as long as your reachable. I've found that to be far from always true.

[heady parcel]

Ugh, guess I'll have to start chopping the boat up again. I hate doing that

[untold sinew]

Technically a ton of iron is only 3⅓ stacks

[fossil delta]

So what is a full iron chest?

[untold sinew]

Do the math

[fossil delta]

I wanted you to do it. 😄

[untold sinew]

How many slots does a chest have

8?

[heady parcel]

If I could at least craft Blackmetal nails to build my ship, then the whole incident would have been profitable. His gang netted me 16 black metal

[fossil delta]

Wood? 10.

8 is game chests

[untold sinew]

=3 ton

[fossil delta]

Iron has how many slots? 24?

[untold sinew]

Idk

DO THE MATH OK 🙏

[fossil delta]

😄

I will, once I have iron chests again, or decide to sign into an old game.

[heady parcel]

YAY I GOT THE NAILS, took a few jumps and nearly drowning, but apparently they were just within reach

[untold sinew]

Good job

[fossil delta]

It is surprising how deep you can get by jumping off of ladders.

[heady parcel]

Right, off to build my shroom farm. It's far enough from my main base that I should set up for repairs and rest, probably a bed to so any unfortunate mishaps in the mists don't become to much of an adventure. Now, for a plains tier repair station, what is enough? Forge lvl 4 and Workbench lvl 2? It's a long enough journey that I don't want to forget something...

Wisplights, gods I almost forgot to bring wisps!

[neon steppe]

has anyone gotten on the bottom of ocean?

with some bug or mods? i wonder how deep ocean is

[merry pebble]

Not that deep, and freefly command does the trick 🙂

[cosmic verge]

I found a tree growing in at a weird angle

Would post but no perms

[merry pebble]

#screenshots wink wink 😉

[pure berry]

With gizmo you can plant trees a little off

[merry pebble]

Just normal weird generation 😄 can happen

[proper kindle]

Just emerged from my Hildir portal to find both a bear and a lox hanging out nearby. Tempted to try to kite one to the other and see what happens...

[ripe tundra]

hello! are frost arrows useful? got a lot of freeze glands and im unsure with what to do with em, currently using the mosquito arrows

was wondering if they were a better investment than eyescream, since im currently in the mountains/pre boss plains

[merry pebble]

They are actually better than the needle arrows for most enemies, especially in the biome after plains 🙂 but needle arrows are just really easy to get

[ripe tundra]

so its worth using them freeze glands for arrows, and just sticking with onion soups for stamina?

[merry pebble]

I just use needle arrows 🙂 but you do you, other than arrows and the eyescream you sont really use them for much

[neon steppe]

i think i used frost arrows in mistlands

not sure if they are good or bad in there, seemed fine

[merry pebble]

Better than needle ones due to enemy resistances 🙂

[neon steppe]

eyescream seemed bit too expensive as there are other food options

[ripe tundra]

aight awesome, will use them for arrows then since yk, eyescream is slightly better than onion soup and ive got like 400 onions

thanks y'all cheers!

[neon steppe]

🥖

[jovial sleet]

what do i do when plants are too close together and cant grow

can i move em?

[merry pebble]

Nope, sadly you loose some

[jovial sleet]

so how do i safely remove 1 without killing the other

[merry pebble]

You punch it, or you can use the axe secondary, you can aim pretty well with that

[pliant hatch]

You're the Puncher Of Drakes, not the Puncher Of Plants!

[merry pebble]

You would be surprised how many problems can be solved with a well placed punch

[wintry valve]

I wish the game didnt let me plant stuff where it cant grow, the same way that it prevents me from building crafting upgrades too close to each others.

[merry pebble]

It just takes a bit of practice 🙂

[jovial sleet]

there really no bear meat recipes?

[merry pebble]

Nope, but it is already great hp food 🙂
Hopefully some will come eventually tho, even if it would be further in progression

[pliant hatch]

Only cooked bear meat.

[wintry valve]

I wish there was a modular cooking system where we mix stuff to create recipes

That way we could have done things with that bear meat

[gray sand]

Could also just stay like Bonemaw Meat and have great stats without needing a recipe.

[merry pebble]

Bonemaw may also gain a recipe 😄 but currently they are in the same situation indeed

[gray sand]

The situation for both being "perfectly fine" imo 🤷‍♂️

[light moat]

Bear meat fills the niche left by cooked fish when it left Black Forest tier

[wintry valve]

I just think its a shame that at some point we just leave all these "old" foods behind without any way to work with them

[merry pebble]

I am not saying the situation is bad 🙂 I am very much content with how it is now

[wintry valve]

I should just shove all that in the obliterator but it feels like a waste.

[gray sand]

If it was food-specific I would support your position.
But we leave old everything behind per biome.

^ They change that, then they had better change the foodstuffs too.

[light moat]

Remind me, can bear meat be used to feed wolves? 🤔

[wintry valve]

That aint true, we still have use for bronze, and copper, and iron, and wood, and all that

We do leave behind the tools we made back then, but its not like the materials needed to make that tool is entirely devoid of uses.

I just wish we could do deer stew but with cloudberries instead of blueberries, you know?

Bear pies

[light moat]

Get rid of lox entirely, and replace all relevant recipes with bear meat

[gray sand]

They would need to completely rewrite a new system where every base edible components has its own stats.
And then when you cook you pick your primary, secondary, and tertiary components - stat allocation being on which order what things were slotted in.
And then you'd need to have a final product name for every single combination possible.

[wintry valve]

Oh im sure something can be done, but yeah they'd need to remake it all. I just wish it was that.

[knotty pendant]

Might be a silly Question, but after they release 1.0 and do deep north. Any plans for future dlc to expand even further?

[wintry valve]

I mean, if corekeeper can do it, im sure valheim could

[neon magnet]

Hmm... Found the spot for my next base/build, but struggling to come up with a building layout. Slightly sloped meadow, can fit a rectangular building on one of the "levels" but more interesting shapes would be tricky.

[gray sand]

No more biomes. Most likely just balance (LOL) and bug fixing.

[wintry valve]

I also wish there was an actual ocean biome, with diving action

[knotty pendant]

okie dokie. 😄

[merry pebble]

Eeeh, diving is pretty much off the table unless they decide to totally redo water, which... is really not likely...

[light moat]

Lot more opportunity above the water imo, even for ocean content 🤔

[wintry valve]

why not? They just need to populate the floor with coral, rocks, seashells and a kraken

charybdis if you want a little jumpscare

[merry pebble]

Water currently is just a sheet thats given movement basically, you need a lot more than that for underwater stuff

[wintry valve]

Im not super convinced it would be too difficult. Im just thinking of having a weird diving button like in Ocarina Of Time.

Look man, I just wanna go get them scales that I keep missing.

Ironically I dont need these scales, I have my shield already, and I dont even use it.

[light moat]

I’m thinking more in terms of Wind Waker, can’t even dive in that Zelda game yet there’s lots of ocean content 😁

[wintry valve]

Well I havent played it so I cant relate

Also, next biome: space

[knotty pendant]

is there a meme channel? VInnyboy post just reminded me of a funny themed meme

[light moat]

https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202263390056357928

[knotty pendant]

cheers just posted in there

it was so on brand i couldn't help myself. now it's confirmed they been to space Irongate should add it xD

[wintry valve]

What kind of ores and food could we find on the moon?

Cheese, maybe?

[neon steppe]

moon

[distant girder]

dust. a lot of dust
random piles of dust lying around that go into your inventory as you're wandering

not being able to take ores through portals could be a lil tricky with the moon

[wintry valve]

maximum stack 50

[distant girder]

lmfao

would be cool to have moonstone for decorating
like, the pretty shiny gem
for ores instead of mining them you have to gather dust and then compress it with the obliterator to make (what's a dust themed metal?)

[wintry valve]

I would use the press to compress stuff instead of the obliterator

[distant girder]

oh that must be a new item since I played last
perfect!

can't wait for haunted skydustball expac

[karmic hill]

New player here, just beat the first boss and wondering if I should abandon my house in meadows as I start to progress into further biomes?

It's on the water edge and close to the 2nd biome dark forest or something

[foggy glacier]

@karmic hill You can keep it, if you want. building materials are not exactly in short supply and there's nothing stopping you from coming back to it later. I'm still in a meadows base in my current playthough and I've progressed to the fifth biome.

I like to turn my first base into a farm/ranch later on. You'll understand what that means as you progress into the second biome.

[neon steppe]

no food left, had to land because serpent was about to destroy my ship and who was waiting for me? nice 1 star troll that 1shotted me with his log 🙂

failed the dodge roll in panic 😭

[steel mica]

Hmm haven't played valheim in a while

[tawdry jay]

me neither jus got back into it with the mods and its fireeeee

[steel mica]

Im just gonna continue making my main world's base

[tawdry jay]

yea im doin the same jus added mods on top of it, it was so simple

[shy marlin]

10/15 black cores on no armor no food no metal perma run 🗿

can't wait to die to something stupid 🤙 yooo

[steel mica]

Fall dmg

[fossil delta]

Was kind of forced into trying out the bear armor in my new solo run. Been running into waaaaay more bears than trolls. I like it. I already have my armor into the 30's, and I am only almost done getting the copper and tin I need. I guess RNG just loves throwing bears at me this play through.

[shy marlin]

eitr refinery bro 💀

(I have to allow just enough blackmetal to make gauldr table)

[steel mica]

No way a single bolt killed you 😭

[shy marlin]

i'm not sure how much dmg they do

but i'm rarely at 25 hp bcuz the only way to regain hp mead is from healing meads found in mistlands dungeons

like i have 1 mead rn and that's it

[nocturne wolf]

Wiki says 30 poison and 30 lightning

[shy marlin]

i'm just gonna pretend like they one shot 👍

[neon steppe]

u mean like no heavy armors or what does no metal mean

[shy marlin]

no metal unless progression requires it (so just mistlands stuff)

So no weapons that require metal, no potions, no weapons that requires metal indirectly etc

[neon steppe]

interesting, what weapons have you used?

abyssal knife?

[shy marlin]

carapace spear, razor, finewood bow, wood club

ur selection of arrows is also heavily limited to bcuz ur highest crafting station is lvl 3

[karmic lava]

anyone intrested in a gauntlet run with challenges that will take u all over the map to become the winner at the end

[shy marlin]

I'm sure people in #1024264966712340510 would dig this

[barren whale]

the eitr will oneshot you yeah its like 30

[foggy glacier]

that's a tough way to play the game. Good on you.

[foggy glacier]

so what do you allow yourself to use metal for?

[shy marlin]

Eitr refinery --> Gauldr table for sealbreaker

I know that you can glitch into sanctum with multiple techniques but I want it to be a glitchless run

[foggy glacier]

I can't even imagine how you've got that far without taking a hit and dying.

[shy marlin]

it's certainly sadistic

I really struggle with mtns progression, bcuz without any armor or potions, freezing dmg is an issue, and moder is noticeably harder

So for all of mtns through very beginning of mistlands i was literally on 3 hp

[tawdry jay]

they hate people doin promo in here lol

[static sentinel]

took all week, but found the first mysterious location - tedious

[barren whale]

can you walk near some friendly dvergrs to get healed lmao
or do they only pop that when aggroed

[jovial sleet]

Can you use poison resistance Mead and healing Mead at the same time?

[drifting ferry]

I think it'd be cool to have a merchant in every biome, Meadows is a "Bounty Hunter" where you can. Sell trophies to. And a Mage shop in Mistlands. Not sure what Ashlands or Deep North would be

[neon steppe]

i'm running into so many bears it's crazy

for every 1 troll i see atleast 4 bears

not too many trophies so far only maybe 5

atleast 30 bear kills

[shy marlin]

i actually haven't tested that

I doubt it works though

[vast wren]

I've noticed sometimes when the dvergrs are not aggroed on you but say a gjall or seekers, you receive a 20 second "dvergr power" buff. Not sure what it does, maybe a kind of rested buff cause it's the same red icon

[shy marlin]

the dvergr power buff does not give hp i know that to be true

i think it's like increased dmg or something

yea checked wiki, +20% dmg for 20 sec

[barren whale]

oh yeah i mean the little support dudes

thought their aoe heals worked on players

[shy marlin]

yea dunno how that mechanic works ngl

[barren whale]

fair haha

[dark coyote]

these bears are b.s., who asked for this?

[neon steppe]

i love em

bear meat is nice at the start and bear armor is great

damn got rekt by the same 1 ⭐ log troll that i died to earlier, this time i even had full health and stuff

just crazy dmg and reach with that log

and pretty fast attacks too, wasn't expecting him to hit me again so quick!

[dark coyote]

there are easily 4-5x as many bears as trolls, more health, good resists (you likely have blunt/pierce), I've seen them destroy torches in my hand and campfires, ridiculous and unecessary diffictulty spike for the second zone

[prisma nebula]

Valheim

[fossil delta]

I've finally seen 4 trolls, and my bear armor is all lvl 3. I do like it, plus good armor. Don't really feel much in the way of the drawbacks. My shield seems to take care of most of that. If not nearly all of it,

I finally got a second trophy off a 1 star. Not that I need them for much. I guess I can make the token, that hardly ever activated for me last play through.

[opaque sundial]

Any vanilla servers?

[chrome spindle]

I'm kind of surprised there's no sub-channel for the Valheim board game......

[lavish bloom]

Even in bronze age i sometimes struggle with them

[fossil delta]

At least they are easy to outrun.

[lavish bloom]

And when i get them low they just run away

[fossil delta]

Bears? I have yet to have them do that. They fight until dead with me. So far.

[compact basin]

where goomba at??

[copper bramble]

goober

[round dragon]

is it possible to slow down day/night cycle?

I don't like the quickness, rahter long days and long nights

[merry pebble]

Not really, there Is timescale command but that slows down everything, all movement, interactions, everything.

[round dragon]

damn

[junior vector]

yo are you meant to cover your sap extractor with builds? or will mobs leave them alone?

[fossil delta]

They will not leave them alone.

[junior vector]

damn alr ty xD

[fossil delta]

Yeah, I lost one last play through. Fortunately I had 4 more.

[copper bramble]

do bonemass power and crystal heart active resistances stack?

do resistances stack in general

i have the root harnesk and serpent shield do the pierce resistances stack

[fossil delta]

I want to say no, but I am not the best one to ask about these particular things.

Those two do stack.

[junior vector]

does it not say in the valheim compendium's active stats tab?

[fossil delta]

I keep forgetting that even exists, so never look at it.

[copper bramble]

so serpent shield + root harnesk do stack? is it multiplicitave or additive? if you know someone that knows refer me to them

[merry pebble]

Yes those two are the only ones that stack since one resistance Is applied for blocking and the other for the dmg that goes through the block. All other resistances do not stack. 🙂

[copper bramble]

so crystal heart + bonemass doesn't stack either?

[merry pebble]

Nope, resistances don't combine, the highest one counts, and since both give slight resistance then thats what you get 🙂

[junior vector]

havent played the game in a while, has there been any news on when the northpole biome thingy will be released?

[orchid locust]

no

[junior vector]

not even if it'll be released next year?

[orchid locust]

I mean, it will probably be out by 2026

but there's been no date announcement

[junior vector]

makes sense ty

[west pulsar]

Opinions on the training dummy

[shy marlin]

change it back to battle brother

[fading yew]

[copper bramble]

battle brother better name

[left lagoon]

how do you kick in this game? I saw a video where someone kicked the enemies

[nocturne wolf]

It's the secondary attack for fist weapons/unarmed

[left lagoon]

thanks

[wicked quarry]

So I just completed the mysterious locations in the Ashlands. Is the sword any good? Do people like it?

[shy marlin]

It’s a good weapon to hang up on your wall

[nocturne wolf]

It has high base damage for a 1h sword but with some luck the iolite nidhogg will often give better DPS, especially against multiple enemies

[wicked quarry]

Thanks you two

[brisk walrus]

@wicked quarry Right now it is as strong as other end game weapons but it might become best in slot for exploring the deep north

[light moat]

It’s in the same tier, but I don’t know if it performs better than other weapons in the same tier 🤔

[tacit crystal]

It performs like 1h sword with bit more added damage but no special effects.

[shy marlin]

It performs like a worse 1h sword

#1 dyrnwyn hater

In before hervor swaps to it next dev blog

[merry pebble]

Sadly true due to lack of special ability 🙁

[candid cloak]

Hey. I got a question about the board game. Is that available in German. I think I ordered in German, but got an english Version. Hope someone can help

[merry pebble]

Try contacting MOOD on [e-mail] 🙂

[clever torrent]

Wait... did my two pet rocks "reproduce"? Two stones have appeared where I have the rocks. And no, they're not stones that keep respawning because I've built over their location.

[verbal mist]

are the swamp trader items usefull later? I see no use for them yet

[clever torrent]

Yeah, they are.

[chrome badge]

Like, you have no recipes, or you don't see them as useful?

[verbal mist]

ok ill keep saving up gold

not yet, we're currently in snow zone. havent run the caves yet

[chrome badge]

That didn't answer my question but okay. 🙂

[verbal mist]

no recipes

[chrome badge]

Ah okay, yes everything has a use typically.

[verbal mist]

unless i missed it or some of it is found in snow caves

havent stepped foot in plains yet

[light moat]

*#2 Dyrnwyn hater

[steel mica]

Make that #3

[silk dome]

valheim

should i make a cooking room outside

[wintry valve]

Imagine hating a sword

[neon steppe]

i haven't used too much of trinkets so don't know best ways to activate them but parry blocking gives alot of adrenaline

[spice mural]

Imagine if you need some kind of warmth in the deep north but Dyrnwyn provides that just like the mistwalker provides clearing mist

[wintry valve]

that could be funny

[steel mica]

Would be painful

Having to hold a specific item to keep you from dying

Curious has the music ambience in ashlands been fixed?

[wintry valve]

Not yet

[gray sand]

@copper bramble yeah, Krom is a beast.

And Carapace Armor without cape is my favorite look in the game.

[copper bramble]

the secondary attack lets me 1 shot seekers with 90 skill

not sneak attack btw

[gray sand]

Real vikings do not sneak

[copper bramble]

i don't really go for sneaks

the only enemy i consistently and unintentionally sneak attack are gjalls bc i see them from far away and get a shot off before they aggro

[wintry valve]

To be fair, real vikings also didnt go to the ashlands or whatever, but rather they went to a similar area called England and visited churches

[fossil delta]

😆

[copper bramble]

"you're not a real X, Y, Z is you do (blank)🤡 " like bruh let me enjoy things

[wintry valve]

I didnt imply anything else

[copper bramble]

ik i was just voicing my thoughts

[wintry valve]

thinking?!

In this economy?!

[copper bramble]

i can afford to think

[wintry valve]

dang, this guy's loaded

[copper bramble]

i'm a little gnome guy living in a tree trunk in the woods

i forage mushrooms and berries

when i say little gnome guy i mean me, who is built like a wall of muscle with a bearded face and stern neutral face

[silk token]

i spent so long playing the boar game it feels like i'm playing the video game of the board game.

[velvet sleet]

It's so frustrating that devs haven't still fixed infested mines in mistlands. Wherever I go - nothing or a mine with 1-2 cores

[tacit crystal]

It's just rng doing what rng does.

[velvet sleet]

It's up to devs to fix RNG and make mistlans much more pleasant

[merry pebble]

I find the mines very much entertaining if not pleasant 😄
And the somewhat low core yield from each mine just means more excitement when you find them

[tiny mortar]

can rancid remains spawn from bone piles in the burial chambers?

its the last BF trophy im missing 😭

[merry pebble]

I dont believe they can, no

[tiny mortar]

aw

[velvet sleet]

The only entertaining thing is to clear a room of bugs to gather few cores. It won't make finding cores more rewarding if I will encounter them 1/3 mines

There are so many other things that RNG ruins but mistlands are probably the worst yet

[red elbow]

hello i need help, i installed mod BepInExPack_Valheim that gave me some extra slots for my armor and few items . but after closing and opening game again i dont have it and all my armor is gone

my bad it was ExtraSlots mod

[chrome badge]

You'll want to raise these questions in #mods-discussion ultimately, but it's always a risk using mods created by people outside of the development team.

[gray sand]

When they do spawn, it is in burial chambers, and it is a one-time thing.

[tiny mortar]

TIL that wolves have the same droprate for trophies as bears.... Sure doesnt feel like it but I'll have to trust

[cunning fox]

What's up y'all

[tiny mortar]

Ive killed like 7 today alone, plenty more after. Im at the point where I got almost 5 full stacks of bear meat. 4 stacks +18 pieces

[royal flint]

bear trophies i feel like are way more rare

i got one trophy after like 12 bears

[pliant hatch]

It feels like that because the amount of bears you encounter is by far less than the amount of monsters having a similar trophy drop rate.

[merry pebble]

Just rng 🙂 also wolves are way more common

[royal flint]

fair

[copper bramble]

i have 3 full stacks of fuling trophies + extra

i don't know why i even keep them

i'm a hoarder ig

[neon steppe]

wish there was option to have my character NOT pick them up

or some use for them

someone here said that they didnt like the change for bait crafting but atleast troll trophies have some sort of use now.

[pliant hatch]

Just turn the auto pick-up option off and it'll be easier.

In case you don't want that, turn them into coal with the obliterator.
At least that way they're useful.

Someone in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 might.

[tiny mortar]

Ive killed plenty bears, shouldve had a good amount of trophies by now...

Killed more bears than viles by a margin, still managed to get 2 vile trophies before 2 bear trophies

[neon steppe]

took me 2 days to find a turnip in the swamps, and after i found it, i've found 4 more like in 5 minutes

game must be trolling me

[tiny mortar]

Free coal!

[copper bramble]

i spawn in elder to destroy forest and burn that into coal

when i get in the ashlands i will use the environment to turn wood into coal instantly

[pliant hatch]

You can already do that from Mistland onwards.

Or even earlier when you set the Fire Hazzard world modifier to "on".

[thick yarrow]

Hi everyone.

Im looking for advice on the best hosting services for a valheim server, I would like to start one of me and my work comrades in the near future.

Merci d'avance!

[pliant hatch]

I think this https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736 is the place you should look in.

[thick yarrow]

thank you

[heady parcel]

Gods, nighttime in Plains was always hectic, but it seems the latest update increased spawn rates even more. I ran from my base to my windmill to collect flour and set another batch to grind - came back a wee bit bloodied at dawn with 17 black iron, 22 lox meat, 10 needles, 10 lox skins, 1 vile trophy & ribcage and a smattering of minor stuff. Bags full just for running to get my damn flour 😄

1.0 droprates btw

[uncut bough]

yknow the way the description in game describes the herb blend it really gives off the vibe like it is some secret kfc 11 herb and spices

[wintry valve]

I remember arguing that there are too many enemies in the ashlands. Its no longer a problem on my end but there's just so many of them still. Anyway at the time I was quite vocal about it but someone, here, argued back that theres no more enemies than from other biomes.

I often think about than when im fending off 10 charred warriors at the same time.

[shy marlin]

can't say i've ever fought 10 charred warriors at the same time

[jovial kraken]

Hey chat. Veteran Valheim player here with over 1000 hours experience returning after break. Not sure who to join or if I want to start fresh or join a clan. I'm all about vanilla. Not really into cheats or modding. Just want the raw experience. I'm pretty good at everything and love massive builds with crazy ditches and defences. I'm from UK. I last stopped my game at trying to get a foothold in Ashlands.

[tacit crystal]

Look no futher than https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 👍

[fossil delta]

I've been thinking that for a few weeks. I'm fine with it, it just means less time resupplying.

[plush umbra]

guys for a bow player what would be the best trinket i can get

[shy marlin]

Wolf sight, bronze pendant or nimble anklet

[silk token]

they spawn as part of "skeleton surpirse" so there's always hope

[feral surge]

anyone wants to play ? i havent played this game in 2 years lol

[foggy glacier]

someone in #1024264966712340510 might

[neon steppe]

decided to raise ground and my base 1 meter to get 4m basement, had to rebuild whole base

atleast it wasn't totally done and still isn't but damn that was alot of work still

[ebon oyster]

I built inside of one of those stone rings. 5x5 house, 2 floors that are each 2 walls high. I wanna reorganize tho

Why is there no cool looking black metal armor

[vernal eagle]

That is a lot of work. Kind of wish I had done that when I remodeled my base, but like my main floor being the same height as dock. Though kind of wanted a basement.

[neon steppe]

alot of work, but basement is great for alot of storage space or for portals

i'm gonna build aportal hub thought so only gonna use basement for eitr machine and storage

[vernal eagle]

Eiter machine I have in a pit away from my house so nothing gets damaged. Really wanted a basement for overflow storage... you know for 1 BILLION bones!

[copper bramble]

rattle me bones

[lunar sapphire]

Don’t shatter me cage

[copper bramble]

if necrotic bones had more uses i wouldn't be throwing them away

like life steal arrows would be cool

or a life steal trinket

life steal mead?

life steal mead that heals you a % of the damage you deal but it slows your passive health regen for the duration

[tacit crystal]

Nimble anklet requires withered bones.

[high lynx]

did we get any halloween updates?

[copper bramble]

yeah but it's not like i'd craft more than one

[dark coyote]

is the nails occasionally not dropping from boats thing intentional? because its 💩

[copper bramble]

nails sink to the bottom

they do drop but they sink

[tacit crystal]

Staying closer to the mast when demolishing the boat makes it easier to regain the nails.

[dusk violet]

You know what this game needs? The removal of the building height limit.

[copper bramble]

height limit or the building stability system

[dusk violet]

The second one

Forgot the name of this mechanic

[copper bramble]

i think you can turn it off with commands

you can still build big with it

my main base has 4 stories and a very high roof

[dusk violet]

But not huge.

[dusk violet]

How did you manage that?

[copper bramble]

you just need to build a good supporting structure

[dusk violet]

Yeah, ok. Could you send a picture?

[copper bramble]

build the frame first with core wood poles for the outline, then see with the hammer what color the highest pieces are to get a gauge on stability

[copper bramble]

i only have old pics for right now, not at my computer so can't get new ones

[dusk violet]

Ok, no problem. Thank you again.

[copper bramble]

look in #screenshots

still not yet finished

it has the bare minimum for being a functional base

oh i didn't have screenshots of the crafting/cooking area

[dusk violet]

How many hours do you have?

[copper bramble]

well when i get home in about 4 hours i'll post more and ping you again

[dusk violet]

Nice.

[copper bramble]

uhh like 300? 350-ish

i'm not much of a builder and i procrastinate on building anything other than a lawn base in meadows

i'm a melee combat expert

[dusk violet]

I have around 1500 hours..

[dusk violet]

I go range, f these dang trolls.

[copper bramble]

trolls are my favorite enemy

whenever i kill a troll i take a screenshot of its ragdoll

95% of my valheim screenshots are troll ragdolls

[dusk violet]

Well my favorite screenshot is of 2 trolls laying on top of each other

[copper bramble]

hot

anyways

building for me is a brake from progressing and a good time sink when i'm in the mood

[dusk violet]

Yes sir!

[copper bramble]

for bigger builds i always start by building a solid foundation and then the supporting structure out of corewood

my current base uses loads of the iron poles bc corewood poles didn't have enough supporting power

in the cellar screenshot you see how many pillars there are, it's all to support the rest of the build

8 stone pillars and 4 4m corewood poles per every 2 stone slabs of space

some critical support pillars have a sneaky iron pole hidden inside them for extra support

[dusk violet]

Well, I just posted a suggestion for my “problem”. And everyone disagrees with me.. 😅

[copper bramble]

i think you could just turn off stability in your own world

either with commands or a mod/plugin

[dusk violet]

Yeah..

Or I will get used to it

[copper bramble]

like i have portal items enabled bc anybody got time for hauling metal on a boat

[dusk violet]

I think I know my next big building project.

You wanna know?

[copper bramble]

sure

my next build will be the foundation for my factory/smeltery build and then a perimiter wall with ballistas

[junior fossil]

There's ballista?

[copper bramble]

ballista is a turret you can build

[junior fossil]

:0

[copper bramble]

it targets creatures in range

[dusk violet]

Speaking about building in worlds, do you have a good seed?

[copper bramble]

i have a godly seed. it's not even funny how good it is

[dusk violet]

Could you DM me the seed?

[copper bramble]

can't i just post it here?

[velvet sleet]

An expert huh? What combos do you know?

[dusk violet]

I think so

[copper bramble]

super secret one handed technique where you get two final attacks for 4x damage

[velvet sleet]

I know such for all weapons, they aren't secret

[dusk violet]

Are you posting the seed?

[copper bramble]

yeah yeah sure

here IxJNZW9iCi

[dusk violet]

Is it for the newest version?

[copper bramble]

yes

[velvet sleet]

I don't know if there is a video of all of them on EN YouTube but I made one on RU, at least 2 persons said thanks

[dusk violet]

Super, then I will look at it after school.

[copper bramble]

it's an awesome seed. the starter island is connected to haldor, swamp with crypts and easy-to-get turnip seeds, mountains with 3 ice caves with 2 of them having tetra lakes, connected to plains as well

[velvet sleet]

You can post on another server and send the link here(without a letter to bot get banned), probably will work

[dusk violet]

Nice

[copper bramble]

what link

[dusk violet]

And good building opportunities.

[copper bramble]

oh and also the closest real mountain has 2 exposed silver veins really close together right next to an ice cave

in this seed i was able to skip elder and bonemass and got directly access to frostner and silver armor

[velvet sleet]

Message link

[copper bramble]

idk what message link you mean

[velvet sleet]

Nevermind

[distant girder]

......i was tabbed out and noticed my screen started to bob, thought something was attacking me
tab back in and my character is like, squatting repeatedly and rapidly? but the sneak indicator wasn't going on and there was nothing touching any of my keys LOL
i got a gif but i think we can't share gifs

[heady parcel]

I think you can in the #memes-and-clips channel

[distant girder]

ty i posted it lol

[tiny mortar]

are 2 stacks of meat enough to tame a 2star wolf?

also how long do they tame

[brisk walrus]

It takes a few ingame days cycle but I’m sure you don’t need more than a few meat pieces per wolf. Not stacks ^^

[tiny mortar]

cheers

i just hope no raid approaches me 🙏

[merry pebble]

More than enough, and it takes 30 uninterupted minutes 🙂

[tiny mortar]

sounds good. if interrupted the timer just pauses right? it doesnt reset?

[brisk walrus]

I suggest you build a roof over their enclosure. Bats and drakes can destroy the poor wolves

[tiny mortar]

ive got raids to be rarer so hopefully nothing will spawn. im already like 15 minutes into the process so i hope nothing happens

i dont want to startle the wolf with building

SHIT i startled him i accidentally punched

hes fine again yay

[silk token]

a friend of mine has a problem. they started a new world so they could play different weapons, but they just max upgraded their flint axe immediately and i think they're going to just use a battleaxe again. what should i do.

[chrome badge]

Nothing, let them have fun 😛

[silk token]

but i really wanted to try porcupine with the vile set-imean they really wanted to try porcupine with the vile set

[chrome badge]

It's still perfectly viable at any point, so no harm here.

Your 'friend' should play with what they enjoy most, trying new things is always good, but returning to what you like isn't a bad thing.

[silk token]

i guess... but he used it on hard and loved it, and im wondering about next is he going to get into the very hard stuff with it

[dusk violet]

What is a good name for a port in the Meadows?

[chrome badge]

Green Vale

[dusk violet]

Thx

I just needed one.

[chrome badge]

Anything for a fellow 1 T Mathew.

[dusk violet]

What do you mean with 1 T?

[chrome badge]

My name is also Mathew with 1 T.

[dusk violet]

What a coincidence!

[silk token]

i could only think of silly things with the word neck in it like "boar's neck"

[chrome badge]

Haha right? I grew up with 4 Matthews as friends so it's always nice to see!

[dusk violet]

Lovely 😊

[dusk violet]

I had the idea of creating a story world, so that everything I build has a story and lore.

[chrome badge]

That would be really cool 🤘

[dusk violet]

And, you will be memorized as the Meadows port master, Omni!

[chrome badge]

That's rad thanks!

[dusk violet]

May I do some lore about you?

[chrome badge]

Go right ahead!

[heady parcel]

Purple draugr be scary when you're squishy

[pliant hatch]

They're terrifying the moment they're purple and only have a single arm and one eye.......

[shy marlin]

@nocturne wolf How do damage multipliers work, like, if I have yagluth power (10%), bear armor (10% for slash) and the resounding shackle up (+10% slash) is it +30% total slash or?

[fickle bramble]

yes

as far as i know

[fickle bramble]

dodge roll, hit, repeat 50 times

or bow from a tree

[tacit crystal]

This should be the case, afaik.

[nocturne wolf]

They multiply each other

[shy marlin]

so not additive?

[nocturne wolf]

1.1 x 1.1 x 1.1

[mint yoke]

Im having some serious trouble finding someone to play this with... the thread the last guy invited me too had no help at all.

[shy marlin]

oh dang so it's even more busted lmao

+30% vs +33%

[tacit crystal]

Ah, this is good to know.

[shy marlin]

yea for sure, recently killed the queen giga fast glitchless just by stacking bear armor, resounding shackle and yag power paired with krom secondary and was trying to back calculate the values

man i love casting spells

[dusk violet]

Man, I love this game

[lavish bloom]

can crops grow without sunlight?

[merry pebble]

They need open sky above them, not necessarily sunlight 🙂

[verbal mist]

do you all generally stick with one weapon to level it up? or use 2-3 different types?

lvl 20 swords currently but considering leveling up 2h axes

[lavish bloom]

So my carrots cant be undeground

[merry pebble]

Nope

[pliant hatch]

I'm usually using two types, sometimes use a third and eventually switch to a fourth at some point.
@verbal mist

[verbal mist]

ok i guess i'll go for it. I was using swords but I rarely pull out my shield to lvl blocking

[lavish bloom]

Dang

[pliant hatch]

This game can be played in so many ways when it comes to choices in weapons, just use what you feel fits you best.

There are some weapons which do more damage or have more advantages than others, but eventually the main goal of this game is that we - the players - are enjoying it. If that means you run around butt naked using a flint spear up to Mistlands, there's no-one stopping you doing that.

[verbal mist]

my end goal is 2h swords but it seems like a waste using 1h swords without a shield. Alot of lost dmg compared to a 2h

[pliant hatch]

You can still use a 1h sword, as both 1h and 2h use the same skill eventually.

But as said, no-one would argue with you and tell you you're making a wrong choice if you pick the kind of weapon you like the most.

There are a lot of different play styles and the meta has changed over time a few times.

Personally I prefer bow / mace for some time, then switch to bow / sword / mace and eventually go for magic.
Others run with spears up to Mistland and go for magic at that point.
Then there are users with axes, users who use Atgeir and so on.

Just play this game the way it feels best for you. And enjoy it. Those are the two most important things. Anything else is just the means to the goal, not the goal itself.

[silk token]

a good strategy is to pick axe or sword or club, and either spear or bow for pierce/range, because when slash or blunt are resisted usually pierce is the answer. but it’s also not crazy to carry a variety of weapons for different enemies if you don’t mind losing the inventory space. my personal is 2 handed axe for groups, spear for certain single target foes and air.

[wintry valve]

use a shield. The blocking skill can be used with any weapon, even if you dont have a shield. And having one will help you a lot

[brisk walrus]

Sword all the way. lvl 80 now while others wepon are lvl 15 to 30. The dmg is so different i can't switch anymore XD i don't want halve my dmg or spend hour farming battle brother

[tired path]

What's the argument towards regular shields? I feel like if you just want to block, you may use a Tower Shield, in any other situation, a Buckler makes more sense since Parrying is so powerful

Where does that leave the regular shield?

[brisk walrus]

big shields can't do parries. only small and regular. To me the parries mechanic is the most important when fighting big monsters. it makes killing them much faster. But small shield leave you almost defence less if you don't know how to parry a particular monster. so that s why i stick to medium shield. It s a good middle ground.

but if you don't feel like parrying and just want to play safe being a tank, then big shield is the way

[fickle bramble]

there cannot be anything solid above them, at any heigh above them

directly above them

[silk token]

regular shield is “sometimes i miss my parry” or because you really like banded shield look more than iron buckler

[fickle bramble]

people who are eh at parrying but like movement

[tired path]

Oh, so it's just a skill issue patch

Yeah I guess that makes sense

[fickle bramble]

yep

[silk token]

kind of, there WAS argument for tower shields, i found them actually more viable in ashlands just because the sheer volume of things coming at you there wasn't enough stamina to parry everything, and a fun alternative playstyle, but now that parry is free anything other than tower is just "better" in any situation. unless yeah, skill check and no judgment.

[dark coyote]

yeah but sometimes they don't drop at all

[tired path]

The thing is, if you know the timings, why would you use anything other than a buckler? In my first playthrough ever I played with the tower shield and it was pretty fun, but on a second playthrough, once you know the movesets and timings, anythign other than a buckler doesn't make sense

[brisk walrus]

For a machine that never misses parries it wouldn't make sense. But people misses parries lol. The medium shied offers versatility. Buckler and tower shield don't have that.

[silk token]

there isn't any reason, you're right, parrying is now superior always. there WAS a reason to use tower shields other than skill difference, which kind of pointless to get into but yeah i had tons of fun using them as a change of pace.

[heady parcel]

Regular shield is the best of two worlds - enough block to protect you even if you mistime a parry or fight larger groups so parrying is no longer feasible, but you can parry and it is a strong enough parry in nearly all situations. Personally I have only ever used a buckler once, and I didn't like how weak it was when I had to do regular turtle blocking.

[silk token]

except turtle blocking is now just parrying over and over because its less stamina and stagger

[heady parcel]

You do some kind of spastic right-click spam then? If it works I'd put that down as a bug, they should probably add a slight cooldown to parry in that case.

[silk token]

you CAN just spam it, but no you can just press it too, there's sort of a cooldown you have to lower your shield before you can parry again at least, you can't perma parry with a rapid right click macro

i have "why did you do this" footage of me spamming parry vs ashlands mobs from back in the beta. i dont want to be a "skill diff bro" ahole but it's very possible to do

[heady parcel]

Yeah I'm failing enough parries vs single enemies that it would be very, very bad for my poor viking's help if I were to try that...

[silk token]

and that's fine, so round shields and tower shields exist and im glad they do. i just miss when it was a choice not a necessity to use tower

[heady parcel]

Which is indeed the case for the regular shield - you can parry and you can block - and they look way cooler than the bucklers 😄

[silk token]

agreeee. i make banded shield instead of iron buckler just for aesthetics

[neon steppe]

i didn't even know there were other shield than tower and buckler

👀

[silk token]

wooden, banded iron, carapace, flamemetal, silver,

actually i think most are non-buckler/tower now that i thikn of it

[neon steppe]

wooden shield > bronze buckler > iron buckler > silver shield > black metal shield > carapace buckler

i think that's what i've always crafted

[heady parcel]

Silver shield and blackmetal shield are regular shields..

And the wooden too of course, no buckler in the caveman era..

[neon steppe]

yeah i've never really paid that much attention other than NOT to craft tower shield

silver shield and black metal shield are kinda round ones too

just bigger ofc

serpent scale shield is so cool but i never get to use it

just a wall decoration for me 🙁

[heady parcel]

Looks awesome but I have never used it other than as decoration either

It does have pierce resist so I suppose there could be a case for it if you don't use the root harnesk

[silk token]

ive used serpent scale to great effect in swamp against lots of stupid daruger and skeleton archers

youre basically invincible to arrows

[wicked quarry]

OMG Fader finally down

only about 7 deaths hehe

[brisk walrus]

GG !

[wicked quarry]

He wasnt as bad as I thought he was going to be. Its all the Ashlands adds that decide they want to interrupt the fight

[vernal karma]

now do a hardcore run

[verbal mist]

Leveling shield seems tough unless you farm low lvl mobs

Cage up a weak enemy and use him for shield skill ups 😂

[wintry valve]

It gets easier if you practice it because eventually it becomes part of your combat routine

[silk token]

dang. 1st dungeon in a new run, 12 cores, 3 ghosts, and elder marker

[verbal mist]

our record is 10 the other night, 12 is sweet

Look no further than #1024264966712340510 😄

[dusk violet]

Any north names for a Viking? Would love if it was close to Mathew.

[tacit crystal]

Magni? Means "power" or "strength".

[dusk violet]

Too late, thx for replying.

I just went with Mathew

[verbal mist]

imagine a viking named mathew

[heady parcel]

Is that fight pit PoI supposed to contain something, or is it just a funny place? It had one skelly spawner but nothing else of note

[tame perch]

is anyone there good at interior designs in valhiem? cuz i need help

[heady parcel]

Check in #building-tips channel maybe?

[queen ruin]

what iron weapon is the best to get?

[silk token]

i think iron has every single weapon type so whatever you think is fun

[heady parcel]

There is no "best" weapon, it is mostly up to your own playstyle. I usually begin with the mace however, since blunt damage is strong in the swamp - but all the iron weapons are good and have their moment to shine. Just use what you think is most fun.

[heady parcel]

My method is to type something into google translate and translate it to Icelandic. Guaranteed to sound very vikingy even if it is gibberish to an actual Icelandish person!

Example - my last viking is named "Grjótharður" which is what google spat out when I entered "rock hard".

I haven't the faintest if it is something you'd ever say in Iceland, but that doesn't really matter as long as it sounds cool! 😄

"Mathew" becomes "stærðfræði"

[tacit crystal]

There is tho.

Alas, "best" is subjective.

[copper bramble]

Krom

[wooden tapir]

i wanna try the new axe

[coarse gust]

i like the Krom because it is the only weapon that fixes your vikings completely fucked posture when carrying it

[heady parcel]

Haha I ran casually up to my house after landing, with a gang of fulings on my heels. Just couldn't be bothered to kill them. When I got inside I realised I had forgotten to eat. One hit from those little green buggers would have staggered me and the others would have finished me off. What a stupid way to go... Phew!

[hearty egret]

question is it normal for my fps to drop when im inside my house

[merry pebble]

Pretty much if it Is somewhat larger build, the more instances the more fps are gone 🙂

[brisk walrus]

i haven't had any raid in a week of playing. I didn't touch the difficulty settings. Anyone knows what s going on ? is there a army gathering before marching on my base ?

[pliant hatch]

Nope. RNG has been in your favour or you simply haven't been long enough near something the base considers as a base (3-player built items). Or not there the moment the check is done.

[wintry valve]

There's no best weapon, but more accurately the iron mace is the best weapon.

[hearty egret]

yeah thats what i was thinking thanks

[steel mica]

sword

[merry pebble]

Whichever weapon you personally like Is the best for you

[shy marlin]

nonsense

atgeir gang rise up

[steel mica]

flametal atgeir when

[shy marlin]

😔 irongate knows atgeirs are so strong they realized an ashlands tier would be op

imagine jade atgier

[gray sand]

Ling Atgeir though.

Press RMB, get 6 chain procs, everyone dead 😁

Big shame no two-handed Ashlands hammer 😭

[tacit crystal]

Everyone going to leave bloodstone atgeir out?

[heady parcel]

I don't like fighting with atgeir normally, but as an ohshit-tool it is unbeatable. Every time I have pulled too many seekers, lox or whatever, I swap to my trusty old spin-to-win stick. Even unrested, the stagger is enough to regain enough stamina to spin again...

[neon magnet]

Anyone have a pro tip for hitting a tiny thing (like part of a multi-part rock) that's sticking out of the ground with a pickaxe? I hate it when I hit the ground and "mess it up"

Though I guess in reality the actual issue is feeling like something is wrong as soon as the terrain gets manipulated

[merry pebble]

Not really, i relly purely on feeling

[heady parcel]

Best tip would be - either dig it out and then even out the ground with the hoe afterwards, or don't try

[neon magnet]

Good to know I didn't miss any super obvious way to aim at least 🙂

[heady parcel]

Yeah, you'd think the cursor is where it's at, but heck naw, can't be that simple!

[tacit crystal]

It has to be pretty precise hit, otherwise like Derleth said above.

[shy marlin]

not until a change to that gemstone happens 💢

[neon magnet]

But as I hinted at - I feel like the original state of the terrain is somehow "pure" and that I ruin it whenever it gets modified... and this is something I need to find a way to frame differently in my mind.

[heady parcel]

For me, it's that last bit of shiny muddy scrap gleaming between the stones, I have worn out so many pickaxes trying to get at that damn thing, that probably wouldn't give me any iron anyway.

[heady parcel]

I have a similiar feeling - but I have started using the Cultivator to grassify the ground when I'm done with a copper pit or whatever, makes it look more natural even if you've dug a half Grand Canyon

[neon magnet]

Oh yeah, I do that... use some of the stone to shape it a little, then grassify it. It's great

But I'm struggling with some perfectionist thoughts around the terrain. The original state is not only unique because it is "the original"... it also means that every part is "maximally modifiable" (i.e. it sits right in between the two limits on raising/lowering). So I feel like as soon as I modify it, it is somehow "less" and I feel bad.

I kind of felt that way about more things before so I'm getting better at accepting it, but still not all the way there

[heady parcel]

My main "thing" is deforestation - I can't stand it. So to get wood I mainly just cut down the underbrush, saplings and young firs in Meadows and Black Forest. When my worlds are a few hundred days in the areas around my bases tend to look like well-kept forest parks. I keep a "tree-plantation" grown that I can decimate if I run into a sudden need of timber.

[neon magnet]

I share that feeling - I'm usually only cutting down trees in a very conscious way when I feel like I need to for other reasons than wood (if it's standing on top of a copper deposit etc). But I kind of got over tree-felling eventually... The long term plan for an area I remove trees from is to replant it later - but with oaks (being one of the few sustainably plantable trees). So there's an element of change by my actions, but it's 'change' rather than destruction

[heady parcel]

Gotcha. I almost never fell oaks, just because of my irl fascination with really big old oak trees. I tend to take a few in small meadows bits I won't ever visit again, until I get at least one acorn. I want an oak near my base to put my beehives on hehe

[neon magnet]

I imagine that in the case I actually stick with a world and area for a long time, it will be an oak forest... and since those don't grow naturally anywhere, it's something of a "someone tended this area" feeling I'm looking for

[heady parcel]

On my first server I ran we found a spot where rng had congested about twelve oak trees in the same place, along with a nearby draugr village. I commanded all the players on the server to leave those oaks the fudge alone 😄

[neon magnet]

They are majestic. I wish the branches didn't go quite as low though. They seem to rest on the ground as often as not

[neon magnet]

If someone destroys a berry bush tho. World ruined

[heady parcel]

Argh, I go through a major crisis every time I hit a berry bush or some agitated lox levels a patch of cloudberries...

[neon magnet]

I wish they would regrow in like 5 times as long as it takes the berries themselves to grow back (but make them not do it if covered or something, just in case someone intentionally removed one for a build)

[noble birch]

I didn't know draugur could spawn in the meadows gave me a big scare lol

it was only one of them though which is the weird part

[heady parcel]

If you have killed Bonemass, they can spawn there during misty nights. Otherwise it could have wandered off from a swamp or escaped a draugr village

[noble birch]

Ive only killed the first 2 bosses

and the closest swamp to me requires ocean travel

[heady parcel]

Then you definitely have a draugr village somewhere nearby

It could also be a straggler after a swamp raid. It ran off chasing deer or whatever while you killed its buddies.

[noble birch]

my raids are turned off

[untold sinew]

Welllllll

Thas strange

[noble birch]

also

There's no way I havent seen a drauger village from exploring lol

#screenshots

@heady parcel

[untold sinew]

Im @untold sinew btw

[noble birch]

ok?

[cosmic summit]

will my asksvin pen at my meadows base need a roof? they're tough enough to survive all the air raids right?

[wintry valve]

They need a roof because somehow raid kills their youngs

[cosmic summit]

ok, im need to think about how i want to build this now 😕 its gotta be stylish

[fluid cove]

i've seen three of them on the mountains lmao

[fossil delta]

Yeah, you do find draugr in mountain keeps. Usually 3 or more of them.

[tacit crystal]

It's after Elder, not Bonemass.

[tacit crystal]

They can rarely spawn in other biomes during night and foggy weather after Elder being defeated.

[thick sapphire]

So, my friend and I have reached Mistlands, and we just got our first piece of armour. So like, when we do get some better gear, what do we do then? Just kill Queen? We have all three new workstations(forge, galdr, refinery) We don’t really know what we should do, so up until now we’ve just been doing mines hoping something new would show up.
Also, we’ve a sealbreaker whatever that does

[rugged bridge]

As with previous biomes, the progression remains the same, gear up, discover and kill the biome's boss

Other than that you can spend your time trying out the mage playstyle, cultivating the crops you can grow and find in the mistlands, stuff like that.

As for the sealbreaker it's an item you need in order to actually enter the boss arena of the biome, so have it on you when you do go fight it

[shut harbor]

Anyone know the number of sky squares are required to be open for a dwarf farm? is it 9 or is it one?

[fickle bramble]

what on earth is a dwarf farm

[shut harbor]

grey dwarf farm?

[fickle bramble]

oh

sorry I'm tired

[shut harbor]

where you make a farm for wood, metal and grey dwarf eyes.

[fickle bramble]

:/

[shut harbor]

if you take a 4 by 4 wood horizontal. is it 9 of these of is it one?

[fickle bramble]

idk

[cobalt venture]

thanks amte

[brisk walrus]

anyone knows the details of how much do death penalty setting reduces the skill loss ? every YouTube video is just reading the information in the setting panel but it's very vague.

[shut harbor]

@brisk walrus 5% each skill and the orange bar

[near furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/kekpunk-kekpunks-gif-1843620448175954372

[tacit crystal]

1% skill loss for casual and very easy, 2,5% for easy.

[brisk walrus]

thanks

[shut harbor]

the numbers i gave you are no adjustment.

[neon magnet]

Does it round up or down? Or nearest?

Always lose at least one skill level, none unless >40 or none unless >20 on default 5% loss?

Found the relevant wiki page... no rounding, you actually end up with weird in-between levels

So dying with 5% loss at 35 skill would leave you with a new skill level of 33.25 and zero progress towards... 34? Or 34.25? 🤔

[brisk walrus]

i think it s always at least one skill lvl + the orange bar no matter your previous lvl

but i'm not sure.
What hapens in this case :
Death penalty on very easy : 1%
fishing skill lvl of 3 and almost 4.
After dying : lvl 2 and no orange bar ?
or lvl 3 with no orange bar.
In other words, is the orange bar taken in account before or after deducing the skill percentage on death ?

[neon magnet]

Not taken into account. And according to wiki you end up with a skill level of 2.97 in that case, but the display is truncated to just show 2

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/World_Modifiers

Under Skill Loss.

But even a wiki can be wrong sometimes

[nocturne wolf]

It's correct here

[copper bramble]

mistwalker + buckler vs krom.
thoughts?

i like them both because krom is a chad that hits hard and mistwalker is light and fast with the frost slowdown that i adore

^for context i currently have 90 skill in swords and 45 in blocking

[nocturne wolf]

If you're only making one, mistwalker is good against all ashlands enemies but krom won't do well against morgens

[copper bramble]

yeah for ashlands i'm leaning mistwalker

i tried ashlands in creative yesterday and like damn.... do i need a mod to make the environment fullbright? i can't see shit

i can see more things in mistlands than ashlands

[rugged badge]

im sad man i just downloaded a modpack to immediately hear AI music yuck

[stuck ferry]

How charred marksman can spawn anywhere on the map close to me? Not in the Ashlands, like i was fighting in goblin camp and got this man

[tacit crystal]

Defeated Ashlands boss? Charred warriors and archers can spawn in other biomes during night time after you defeat the boss.

[stuck ferry]

Ah, okay, thanks

[tacit crystal]

Other mobs too, after certain bosses.

[frosty kraken]

mhh, what's the deal with the bear in black forest? it keeps popping up frequently. not like trolls. i spend most of the time killing it.

[stuck ferry]

Nah, don't saw them, only spawned 2 marksmans like 10 min each

[frosty kraken]

i even find it hard to mine copper... bear keeps coming back.

anyone? bears just keep repoping.

[tiny mortar]

had the opposite issue, too rare.

does your world have higher spawn rates by any chance? in the custom settings

[nocturne wolf]

Bears are more common than trolls but can be avoided more easily with a 15m hearing limit

[nocturne wolf]

If you don’t kill the bear it will keep coming to where it spawned

[frosty kraken]

there are my settings https://i.imgur.com/saNySE1.png

[frosty kraken]

they just repop and i keep killing them. can't to anything more

[brisk walrus]

well, the game wants you to get the full bear armor

maybe once you wear it you will blend in with the other bears

[frosty kraken]

ha-ha. i could already equip the entire valheimverse wiht bear armor 😄 i just keep killing the bears and that's it. they're bad in combat. you can just sprint when they're about to attack

but killing them takes time. they got lot of hp

[brisk walrus]

for a real tip : if you know exactly where they spawn by now, placing a bench there should prevent them from spawning anymore.

[frosty kraken]

this doesn't seem to work. i tried it. perhaps not in the right places. who knows!

[wicked quarry]

Hmmm...Do Flametal Ore Spires stop sinking after you've killed Fader? I've now completely harvested 3 ore spires without sinks since killing him.

[shy marlin]

nah

few patches ago they lowered the chance the spire will sink

[wicked quarry]

ahh cool

[tacit crystal]

From 10% chance to 1% chance to start sinking when hitting with pickaxe.

Still I manage to get 3 close spires to start sinking after few hits.

[shy marlin]

[copper bramble]

does the trollstav meteorite let you mine flametal

[nocturne wolf]

Trollstav aoe has tool tier 0 so it can't damage flametal

[copper bramble]

sadge

[gray sand]

Bearstav when?

[tacit crystal]

How about Beerstav?

Beer meteor that splash drunkness debuff to any inside its AoE.

[merry pebble]

Yes!

[heady parcel]

First two I tried mining in Ashands sank on first hit, I thought it was supposed to be like that and was confused when the third didn't sink at all...

First one sinking on first hit also instigated my only deaths so far in Ashlands. Lots of stupid decisions in a short span of time. Ended up in the lava, and it hurt...

[dark coyote]

wow this wraith killed me twice and persisted during daytime

[buoyant acorn]

make frost meads and go get the silver sword before you touch the swamp. easy

[gray sand]

No. Lol.

[brisk walrus]

kill the queen, go the ashland, make youself the best weapon in the game. And get some frost meads. Easy

[buoyant acorn]

yes!

[gray sand]

No. Lol.

[buoyant acorn]

take a karve down to the ashlands it'll be fine 🙂

[brisk walrus]

real men go swiming

[neon steppe]

enough valheim for a while, cya guys when 1.0 launches

[wicked quarry]

I’ll be doing the same shortly as well. Completed my latest play-through and now just prepping the base for 1.0.

Dungeon and Kingdoms launches on Nov 17th so that’s what I have lined up next,

[midnight stratus]

holy bro, the swamps really shitty huh haha, just grinded through the whole biome and got 300 scraps just to be done with it

[heady parcel]

Love the swamp, its ambience suits my soul I guess. Dark, wet and putrid 😄

[midnight stratus]

yeah i also like the ambience but its like theres always something trying to kill you

[mellow ore]

Whats the theme of the deep north boss

[dark coyote]

||its Ulf||

[heady parcel]

Isn't there always?

[heady parcel]

It's not out yet, so we don't know yet

[mellow ore]

they havent made any teasers yet?

[merry pebble]

Not of boss, no

[heady parcel]

Check the videos and find out. They tease a bit of the environment, maybe some glimpses of enemies and structures - but I highly doubt they will show us the boss

[mellow ore]

i have a question im boutta beat the swamp biome soon is the game gonna get like really hard or is it gonna be simple

[midnight stratus]

i think its easier after swamp imo

[heady parcel]

Every biome shift means a bit of a difficulty jump, the most distinctive ones being from Plains to Mistlands and from Mistlands to Ashlands.

[pliant hatch]

It's going to get a lot harder.

You will have to deal with an event that can struck you anywhere, not just when you're on your base, you will have to eal with an event that can kill your farm animals and you will have to deal with bosses which are a lot harder.

Not to mention, monsters that are resistant to certain damage types and neutral to most others.

[mellow ore]

so the first 3 biomes are a tutorial basically

[dark coyote]

yeah, mountain wasnt as significant of a difficulty spike, I was able to find a double silver vein right off the bat, and move on to plains

[pliant hatch]

yup

[merry pebble]

The first big one Is the one from BF to Swamp 😄

[heady parcel]

Yeah the swamp is where it gets real if you're going very casual and not paying a lot of attention!

[mellow ore]

i had a dream about valheim and the devs said they are gonna make a dlc where you go on the big tree and there is more biomes bosses and enemies there imagine

[merry pebble]

Which Is lot of first time players 🙂

[mellow ore]

im not really having any problems with swamp

[dark coyote]

abomb appears

[hollow lance]

where can i vent my valheim anger out on here?

[heady parcel]

Means you are probably paying more attention to things than a lot of players. Some players found the swamp nearly impossible at first. I had my first instance of getting absolutely destroyed and corpse camped by an assortment of mobs, but eventually I learned to deal with it. Some players really struggle there.

Steam forums, Reddit are some places.
But you could also give it a try in this channel.

At least over here we're able to give you advise right away.

can i swear without insulting anyone?

[pliant hatch]

Better not do that.
We've got users of all ages over here.
Well, at least from the minimum age Discord requires someone to be.

[hollow lance]

okay

bro im so p off from the black forest or the shores in general

how the hell do i have rested buff eikthyr and 100 stamina and cant run up slightly uphill with a cart

it takes me minutes to move metres

idk if this is a issue but this seriously needs resolving i understand gravity yeah yeah all that, but this was literally almost a smooth path that my cart was struggling on

[pliant hatch]

Because the cart mechanics are weird.

It work well with about half the slots filled with metal, but beyond that it becomes a big pain in the rear.

Don't load it too heavily, you're not superman - weight matters. Smaller loads and it goes a lot easier

[hollow lance]

i see,so weight does cange how it works. it was probably that beacuase i can lots of copper

[dark coyote]

yeah, I spent a lot of time making roads in my first BF area, now its awesome, signs and everything

[brisk walrus]

stam and buff don't matter. Only the weight of the cart.

[hollow lance]

amazing bro sounds like it saves alot of time

[brisk walrus]

i recomend stoping at 1500kg

[heady parcel]

And yes, clearing roads makes a great difference when carting

[hollow lance]

okay thanks so much guys ill try moving some of the raw materials to my inveotrry

[hollow lance]

BRO IT WAS BELOW THAT 💔

[brisk walrus]

bro you need to hit the gym

[mellow ore]

i play alot of souls likes so valheim is not a problem for me i want the other biomes to lower my ego abit

[hollow lance]

my carts on 1297 and acting like a 600kg man who needs a stroller to walk

[dark coyote]

I want more POIs, maybe even a portal where players can upload their own POI creations, then they can attribute weights or values to them for the proc gen

[heady parcel]

There are some mobs in the coming biomes that can be humbling, and the bosses do get harder all the time.

[pliant hatch]

I don't know how steep the angle was, but have you tried going up diagonally? And then zig-zagging?

Things might work better that way.

[hollow lance]

of course, ive definitely tried. and it still doesnt help!! but its alright im slowly making my way to base. literally departed 20 minutes ago and im still walking.

[pliant hatch]

How much weight do you have in your inventory?
Because that will have its influence as well.

[brisk walrus]

really ?

where did you get that information ?

[hollow lance]

i had about 150 max in my inv and 1200 in my cart, i just put all my misselaneous (holy spelling) into my inventory and its suprisingly working a bit better

[hollow lance]

@pliant hatch

[wary tundra]

kinda gets harder after the mountain

[wintry valve]

you are supposed to build a road before using carts

[pliant hatch]

And another question: have you find Haldor yet?
He's got a nice item that's also helpful with inventory weight.

[hollow lance]

cant be bothered

[hollow lance]

i know, the bedjingord or hwoever its spelt. how much money is it and how do i even efficiently find money? i think i got around 150 coins or so and i havent found haldor yet
