valheim-chat

[wintry valve]

dang it

booooooo

[chrome badge]

They're not fishing clothes so why would they

[wintry valve]

Because the clothes helps with all sort of tools like the hammer, cultivator, hoe, and serving tray. Many of these items are not related to each others.

I find extra amusing that they help with the serving tray, too. As if thats ever a problem.

[chrome badge]

Right, but there are fishing clothes in-game.

[wintry valve]

Right, and there are farming clothes too, but the other peasant clothes also help with farming.

but I guess the nature of the fishing skill is different than farming

[chrome badge]

Okay well, that should indicate there are sets for these things.

[wintry valve]

To be honest I just dont really like how fishing works in this game, but to go back to what I said earlier, its likely that I just "didnt get it"

I just never managed to reel a fish near me, even with 200 stamina

[ashen ravine]

is fishing super hard? sorry if I’m butting in.

[chrome badge]

I find it's nice to take a simple raft out and cast as close as I can to myself. I'll mark schools of fish on the map and it helps with going spot to spot.

You can even paddle the raft while casted out and catch a fish while steering the raft.

[wintry valve]

According to my friend, no

At least leveling fishing is really easy, if time consuming

[light moat]

It’s not hard, but the bigger fish can be tricky. Positioning is probably the most important factor, as well as stamina.

I find it enjoyable. Wish there was more to it, but it’s a neat little activity.

[wintry valve]

I wish there was a way to buy a thing that generates bait slowly

like hives and honey

[ashen ravine]

worms are used as bait?

[wintry valve]

on the other hand im full of money

[ashen ravine]

like if it isn’t maybe. If they did add something like..

Maybe when it begins to rain you can try finding some worms.

No wait ignore that idea I think the grass would get in the way

[wintry valve]

In Stardew valley you can build a bin that creates a few units of bait every day

[ashen ravine]

what’s that?

If it’s a popular game sorry. I haven’t been able to get to play good games much ._.

[light moat]

HA I was just thinking about that when you mentioned making bait!

[ashen ravine]

Hey just this is an off topic question but. Is it normal for dreams to last hours?

[wintry valve]

You should check it out, its one of the most beloved game on Steam.

Its absolutely phenomenal for a game that was made by a single guy

[ashen ravine]

That does sound pretty impressive.

And cool.

[wintry valve]

You know how cool it was?
It was so good that a bunch of years later, Nintendo Direct presented thirteen games of the exact same formula at the same time.

[fluid cove]

its a farm simulation game with some other stuff thrown in and its really good

it was built on the Harvest Moon formula but made better

[wintry valve]

Put harvest moon to shame, really

[ashen ravine]

I might try it out cause I haven’t been able to play good games.

[eternal coral]

Cause you know .. Nintendo is incapable of doing anything new ....
they just remake things ...
but remaking something that wasn't already theirs is unusual

[ashen ravine]

What’s up with Nintendo? Sorry I’m just a little late or maybe forgot on what’s wrong with it.

I’m doing a project not forced but a little stressing.

[wintry valve]

Nintendo is going crazy right now. Its hard to explain exactly why they are doing all that. There is a reason but its just harder and harder to defend every passing year.

[ashen ravine]

That’s tough.

[wintry valve]

The solution is simple, really

Valheim

[fluid cove]

Farmheim

[eternal coral]

it's just more money for minimal effort
that is the entire Nintendo game plan
don't make new games .. or platforms
just re-release everything we make every few years ...
and charge even more for it

[fluid cove]

and sue other companies to the ground for making a game slightly similar to theirs but better

[wintry valve]

Well its blowing up in their face

[ashen ravine]

So it’s sort of like..

“Hey I just made this little Mario thing to show my appre-“ SUE-

[eternal coral]

that part is painful but somewhat understandable
the laws of the country that Nintendo is based in state that if there is a challenge to your IP and you do not defend it in court ..
you forever lose to right to defend your IP ever again
brutal .. but they kinda have to ...
however other companies from the same area ...
reach out to others who touch on their IP and make agreements with them
instead of grinding them to dirt
noone but Nintendo has ever sued a small child for making fan art

[chrome badge]

It's unfortunate, but most long standing companies in today's business climate resort to profit mongering. Typically they neglect what made their company a staple, and upsell old products. Integrity inherently diminishes in a shareholder prominent environment. Customers used to be king.

[ashen ravine]

Dang..that’s tough

[wintry valve]

Oh, when people do fangames, Nintendo is actually justified in sending cease and desist letters as unfun as it is.

And considering how their gaming venture started, decades ago, they actually know firsthand how easy it is to lose their intellectual properties to these kind of things.

[chrome badge]

It's just sad how it's similar to say, someone inspired by the beatles playing music in the same genre, only in this case, the beatles keep showing up and smashing their instruments.

[ashen ravine]

After hearing all of this I think I’m gonna make some adjustments to the test. ._. Not meaning to ruin the moment

[wintry valve]

The thing is that in this example, if someone makes their own music that just happen to look like what the beatles did, said beatles can do jack about it.

If I were to make a game that looks like pokemon, using my own artworks, critters, story, and music. Nintendo couldnt do a thing.

Nintendo doesnt like it when people use their proprietary assets for fan projects.

[chrome badge]

It's just speaking figuratively, it isn't 1:1 true to the scenario.

[ashen ravine]

I wish I understood more

[ashen ravine]

Hey vinny.

[ashen ravine]

Omni?

[wintry valve]

yes?

[distant girder]

is... is cooking meant to be the hardest skill to level? idk how many hundreds of onion soups i've made and turned into coal and i'm at lvl 34 @_@

[ashen ravine]

I know I just asked this question but is dreaming for hours normal for most people?

[gray sand]

Should be 1-2 based on what weapon/attack you are using.

[wintry valve]

yeah sure

[chrome badge]

I dream for hours myself, so I would say yes it's normal. Seems you're a sound sleeper and enter what's called REM.

[wintry valve]

Im no psychologist so I cannot give a meaningful answer to that

[ashen ravine]

REM?

[chrome badge]

Rapid Eye Movement Sleeping, your brain enters an active state while sleeping, and this produces vivid/extended dreams.

[ashen ravine]

That kinda oddly cool as well. Tho the dreams do get a bit. Worldly sometimes or that’s the correct word for it

Well did..

[chrome badge]

I used to have nightmares from time to time as a child, my mom just told me to dream of something else, and from that night on I learned to identify when I'm dreaming just in case I needed to change my dream.

[ashen ravine]

Wish I could do that.

but that’s the problem.

I cant change it.

I’m only aware. But I can’t leave

It stopped a year ago.

But came back not as bad as before

[chrome badge]

It takes a degree of awareness when drifting off to sleep, I usually just think to myself something having to do with the fact that I'm about to dream, and it gives me some autonomy in that state. It's harder to control when you just fall asleep with no prepared-ness of sorts.

[ashen ravine]

I’ve tried that as well. But nothing worked 🙁

[fluid cove]

wasn't Palworld its own thing? just similar-ish? correct me if im wrong

[ashen ravine]

All I could do is traverse the world.

The dream as odd

[wintry valve]

It was its own thing and nintendo tried to patent something to screw them over and its blowing up in their face

rightfully so, too, I would say

[ashen ravine]

I don’t know the right word for it

You forget.

[chrome badge]

I know that feeling, but if you're having vivid dreams, continue taking steps towards finding awareness of the dream, once you're dreaming and you know it, you can attempt to switch things up, even minor things.

[ashen ravine]

Have you ever had a dream where you wished it was a nightmare?

Sorry if that’s odd.

[chrome badge]

Yes but only because I am a Nightmare On Elm Street fan. 😅

[gray sand]

I dreamed that people talked about Valheim in the valheim chat channel 😉

[ashen ravine]

I could try to describe a bit of what the dreams felt like.

Idk if I could even call it a dream it felt like a world

It was abstract someone might say.

The world was as if someone had played with it like slime. It was messed up.

Gravity not working the way it’s suppose to.

Distorted reflections

It was all odd I wish I could explain more.

I don’t have a name a world where even the world itself dosent even remember what it’s suppose to be ._.

[distant girder]

glances in valheim chat w-what

[gray sand]

Yeah...

[chrome badge]

Dreams aren't exactly going to paint an exact picture to describe anyways, much like thoughts, they just induce feelings, flash images, and mold from memories.

[distant girder]

awk

[gray sand]

How's your Valheiming been going?

[chrome badge]

Talk about Valheim, stop making it weird, they're just asking questions about dreaming no big deal.

[ashen ravine]

I’m sorry

[gray sand]

If only there was a #general chat for any topic you wish 🤷‍♂️

[distant girder]

i'm having fun doing tiny pranks on friends, just lined the roof with a neat row of alternating trollfish and jackoturnips

[gray sand]

Why you prank? 😭

[distant girder]

tiny wholesome things, no griefing ever

[chrome badge]

I didn't choose the topic, and no one else was speaking, relax champ.

[gray sand]

If I have to undo it, it causes me grief 😭
But I take your meaning 😄

[ashen ravine]

Wanna hear something cool? If you’d even find it cool ._.

[distant girder]

o for sure, i undo it right away if someone doesn't like it

[ashen ravine]

No this isn’t a dream thing.

[ashen ravine]

History
Something only learned through written text
As unfortunate as it may be I believe many stories have been vexed
Despite us unable to see
History is not written by those who win but rather those who survive stories passed down from them to their kin from mouth, to written form, truth deprived.

[chrome badge]

I'm a bit confused, but there are plenty of ways to convey history outside of written text. Many things are even recorded on video, picture, or audio. Not to mention, carvings of symbols.

[ashen ravine]

I tried making a poem (if I did it correctly) and tried making it sound cool

🗿

For all I know I just said normal words in a philosophical way

[chrome badge]

Ah I see, well writing is always a good outlet. 🤘

It's why we have runestones left behind in Valheim.

[ashen ravine]

I wonder if I could write something that matches Valheim ..

[gray sand]

Don't you have resources to farm? 😏

[ashen ravine]

Nah I’m lost. I’d say I’m mediocre at it.

[distant girder]

yes but we usually do stuff as a group lol
lil pranks don't take very long and generally make folks giggle so it's win-win

[chrome badge]

Just have fun with it, fear of what you haven't yet tried will only keep you from getting better. Enjoyment leads to passion, and passion leads to experience. 👍

[gray sand]

Valid. When I do worlds with people, everyone has to grind their own stuff because everyone has their own base 😄

[distant girder]

i question this timeline of ...i mean, everything is experience
ooo yea i tend to always do communal playthroughs lol

[gray sand]

I don't like people fucking with my shit, even if it is playful 😄
So everyone kind of gets their own island or area of the map and it means we all get our own builds.
Visiting to see what other people do is fun. And we do also trade because some people farm certain things more than others.

Like I will trade you ingots of any kind for berries given how much Tasty Mead I burn through 😄

[distant girder]

that sounds awesome
my issue with sandbox games is debilitating decision paralysis so if i'm on my own i never end up making anything no matter how badly i really wanna

working with other people helps with brainstorming and i like decorating interiors

[gray sand]

Being able to make decisions is a life skill, so I highly encourage you keep hitting sandboxes to learn it in a safe environment 💛

Even if your first decision is "kill all lifeforms" 😈

[ashen ravine]

✞ may god have mercy

: (

[wintry valve]

Do you think God stays in Heaven because he too plays Valheim all the time?

[ashen ravine]

Now that I think about it if your having a bad dream and it is how yall say is. Once you gain awareness just imagine the Valheim pause screen and quit / log out button 🗿

[distant girder]

i do understand, it's a neurological issue tho ♥ and i'm likely older than you lol

[gray sand]

My birth year starts with 19 so I assure you I am not young.

[distant girder]

that makes me feel even older lmao

[gray sand]

Unless you're a vampire born in the 1800's, we are in the same bracket.

[distant girder]

sweats

[gray sand]

Also not entirely sure why age is relevant.

[fossil delta]

Found a 4th Draugr Village. Different meadows, different island, but this is the most I have found in a while in a single world..

[distant girder]

sweeeeet
i found a draugr village in snow yesterday, that was a first

[fossil delta]

Don't recall ever finding one in snow. Close to a mountain, but not in the snow.

[distant girder]

yea it's in a spot where there's a very, very teeny tiny mountain biome, just on the edge of it

so it happened to be placed in snow lol

[fossil delta]

Found them going into swamp a couple of times.

At least that makes some sense.

Good thing about this village, to me, is the throne building looks to be almost completely intact. So hopefully I can clear it without the Raven Throne being destroyed.

Hopefully it will have two chests underneath as well.

[wintry valve]

Viking tesla coils when?

[obsidian raven]

Reality is God's Valheim.

[fluid cove]

hear me out

[gray sand]

NO 😏

[fluid cove]

Valheim next biome involves creating a CPU chip from scratch

[gray sand]

😁

[fluid cove]

btw i found a new building type the other day in the Meadows

looks like a small arena of some sort

with a bunch of skeleton spawners in it

[gray sand]

That is the new arena added with the combat update.

[fluid cove]

pretty neat

[tacit crystal]

And chest under the floor pieces.

[west pulsar]

Screenshot it

[quaint pilot]

Feel free to come chill in VC. Gonna be playing valheim soon!

[bronze gust]

VC? valheim chat? or a YT channel?

[quaint pilot]

VC = voice chat lol

[bronze gust]

LMFAO. duh one to many chat channels with VC

VC for short that is lol

[lavish jasper]

New Character arrival into world thor flew past with a cart behind him?

[merry pebble]

Ooooh, lucky 😄

[nocturne wolf]

The extra vertical hitboxes can only hit characters, other object types can only be hit by the old hitboxes

[dapper abyss]

I’m trying to find silver in the mountains. My wishbone goes off, I get a higher pitch blip, I stop, the blip goes back down… can’t seem to get excited blip no matter what direction I dig. So frustrating! 😩

[silk token]

it could be buried kinda deep so the blips dont get that fast, could also be a buried chest and super small hard to pinpoint. id say pick a spot and dig, the blips will go faster if youre digging down to it

[fluid cove]

besides the Frostner is it even worth it to mine much silver

I even managed to kill Moder with just the ancient bark spear and iron armour lmao

only gotten the Fenris armour after I killed her

[gray sand]

Worth being subjecthive to the individual and Frostner being horrible--

Silver Sword is BiS vs. Yagluth and really good in Ashlands.

[fluid cove]

i remember your whole essay about Frostner being mid 🤣

[gray sand]

I would never upgrade it to the rank of "mid" 😉

[fluid cove]

isn't BM sword > Silver sword

[gray sand]

If you're just going Fenris set-

Silver Sword and Draugr Fang both have very good returns on investment.

[gray sand]

Not vs. Yag and not in the Ashlands.

[fluid cove]

right

[rugged bridge]

I'd tell you that's because the boss feels underwhelming (and it does)

Also did I miss a raid or something I've got a ghost ping here

[nocturne wolf]

silver sword deals more damage than mistwalker to charred and valkyries

[gray sand]

Person who left the server mentioned agreeing with you before leaving.

[fluid cove]

i think i got a bit of silver ores left...

would be a PITA to mine more 😭

[merry pebble]

Mining silver is usually quite fast and even fun really 🤔

[fluid cove]

my current base is literally 300m away from Yag's altar

[rugged bridge]

I swear moder has to be the most wacky boss in the game, her AI feels like it's elderly, she takes more time deciding where to land and actually landing than a teenager when they park their car for the first time

[silk token]

silver weapons are worth having vs yagluth imo

[fluid cove]

what about shields?

[rugged bridge]

Ah okay, explains the ghost ping then

[silk token]

shes extra bad now that player attack hitboxes are better. she often pins me to a spot where she cant hit me but i can hit her. her attack is so garbage

[rugged bridge]

I was playing an offbeat ROTMG game so I couldn't look at my discord for a while

[gray sand]

If you are parrying-
Iron Buckler vs. Silver Shield is a difference of 8 block armor.
So most people skip until Blackmetal for their next shield upgrade.

[fluid cove]

BM it is

[nocturne wolf]

silver shield looks better though

[gray sand]

Silver Sword also lets you be the witcher in earlier biomes 😉

Carry 2 swords 😏

[rugged bridge]

That plus I think the fact that raising a pillar of dirt (literally like 5 stone) is enough to effortlessly block one of her main attacks for the duration of the entire fight speaks volumes about the boss as a whole lol

[tiny mortar]

Had the idea to do a run like that xd

[merry pebble]

Where would i put my cultivator then? 🙁

[tiny mortar]

The witcher build

[sage bone]

Hey guys I'm new to the game, my friends and I are starting to play and I just got a troll raid to my main base but I cannot kill them both myself anyone willing to help me (I'm the builder of the team) I'm also the host of the server so i can invite you through steam but I can't open it cuz trolls hitting base

[gray sand]

WHY ARE YOU CARRYING YOUR CULTIVATOR 😭

[tiny mortar]

Youre not?

[chrome badge]

If you aren't totally filling the Longship with the next ore available what are you even doing with your life?

[tiny mortar]

Its always in my hotbar xd

[nocturne wolf]

moder's frost beam attack is possibly the only melee attack that can be aimed vertically (it is technically a melee attack, there's no projectile)

[merry pebble]

Because i can 😛
-# And love to see peoples reaction xD especially those who say there is too little inv space
(But really because i am too lazy to go fetch it when i need to plant stuff or place grass)

[rugged bridge]

Going into a valheim fight and spending 30 seconds deciding if the mob is a monster or humanoid/animal to decide which sword I have to pull out

[gray sand]

"I carry my hoe, cultivator, pickaxe, and 5 foods with me everywhere. No, my complaints about inventory space aren't self-inflicted at all..." 😭

[tiny mortar]

You use silver for humanoids too, no? In game lore atleast. Pretty sure you kill elves and dwarves with silver

[gray sand]

No monsters unfort. Just undead or unliving.

[rugged bridge]

Hell nah, I have 1000+ hours in the witcher 3, believe me I know which sword gets pulled out for what lmao

[fluid cove]

build an earth wall or dig a moat around your base, enemies cant get past them

[gray sand]

Witcher 4 soonTM 🙏

[tiny mortar]

Ah wait im stupid. You use steel for nonhumans

[fluid cove]

kek, also gta 6 delayed again

[sage bone]

I did but I was making base again and they spawn right on the base

[fluid cove]

oof

[tiny mortar]

I havent played in ages, forgive me. I 100%ed the game and havent touched it since

[rugged bridge]

If you want to go by witcher lore, any kind of monster counts for silver, if you go by general culture lore, then yeah, undead/werewolves/stuff like that

[sage bone]

Care to help if you can kill them?

[gray sand]

Not a GTA person 🤷‍♂️ But I understand for the people who are it has been a rough couple years.

[sage bone]

I only got 25 health I might get 1shot

[gray sand]

I was going by Valheim lore 😭

[rugged bridge]

All good, and yep, humans, nonhumans (other races) and animals are attacked by steel

[rugged bridge]

Ah, my comment was about the "witcher playthrough" of valheim lol

[chrome badge]

Sorry Jessie I have just gotten off for now, hopefully someone can help you.

[sage bone]

Thanks! Hopefully my friend just gave me the idea to get into main discord haha

[fluid cove]

iirc the witcher silver swords aren't entirely made of silver, but they're steel sword coated with silver edge or something like that

[tiny mortar]

They are yeah

[gray sand]

That would be the only way they don't disintegrate on hitting hard things.

[tiny mortar]

Silver itself isnt strong enough and would break on impact

[fluid cove]

tungsten sword when

[rugged bridge]

Indeed, it would shatter, so it's not entirely silver but it's what the game considers them so we're rolling with it

[merry pebble]

When you get some more muscles xD it would be HEAVY

[gray sand]

Rolling in the Deeeeeeeep North.

[rugged bridge]

I'm gonna request a name change if the deep north doesn't have a cave system that goes at least 50m underground

[tiny mortar]

What metal do you guys think we're getting in DN?

[gray sand]

Ice 😉

[tiny mortar]

puts into smelter
"Hey whered it go?"

[rugged bridge]

Maybe they take inspiration from skyrim's dragonborn DLC and we end up using something similar to Stalhrim (enchanted ice)

[merry pebble]

I would bet on gold 😄

[gray sand]

Cleans smelter and makes it more efficient 😛

[fluid cove]

whats that ice-like metal in skyrim? Stahlrim?

[tiny mortar]

Craftable coins!!!

[rugged bridge]

Can't even call it a metal due to its description but close enough I guess, it's hard so it's metal lol

[gray sand]

Aluminium 👀

[fluid cove]

so its metal-like ice then lmao

[merry pebble]

-# I am going of the teaser weapon we have been shown 🙂

[tiny mortar]

Um I didnt even see that wtf Ima have to check it out

[gray sand]

It's ICE-ICE!
-# Baby.

[rugged bridge]

Think of it as that one "snowball" you picked up as a kid that turned out to be a large chunk of ice and you couldn't throw it at your friends

[merry pebble]

Pretty sure you did xD

[tiny mortar]

I prob did but I forgor

I might have... Za dementia...

[gray sand]

Or, we get a super-futuristic material.

Latinum 😏

[sage bone]

Anyone can help with the trolls raid please

[tiny mortar]

Modern tech in valheim when?

[rugged bridge]

Good point I forgot about that

[tiny mortar]

Shoot them in the noggin

Between the eyes

[nocturne wolf]

https://valheim.com/news/word-from-the-devs-ready-for-a-fight-

[gray sand]

Run in circles until the timer runs out then kill the remaining 2.

[merry pebble]

The point does look it could be crystal maybe 🤔 or just very shiny metal

[sage bone]

Problem is that Im the builder of the crew and their spawn right on the main base

[gray sand]

We get Latinum and the final boss will be Ferengi. 😄

[tiny mortar]

What if its another dwvyrwyn (??? You know what I mean) situation

The funny fire sword

[rugged bridge]

About to take a look at it again, you meant the lava/silver looking one yeah?

[obsidian plaza]

Hi,
Looking for an Australian server

[tiny mortar]

#1024264966712340510

[obsidian plaza]

Thanks Rick

[merry pebble]

#valheim-chat message
The one from this link

[rugged bridge]

I honestly can't tell if the tip of it looks like it's made of crystal because of the lighting or not, but the sword itself looks like it's made out of 50% molten gold or lava

Either way I love its design, looks a lot more improved and detailed than the swords we've had so far

[gray sand]

Deep North adding Halo plasma sword 😏

[sage bone]

Can you help 🥺

[rugged bridge]

You seriously want someone to download/log into your world to kill 2 trolls for you?

[grand juniper]

based if it came with a wortwort emote. How far along are they even? Usually when they release the Viking woman video it means they are around halfway done from what i seen anyway

[rugged bridge]

Seems liked a ruined experience

[fluid cove]

Mistlands introduced magic to Valheim
Deep North will introduce electrical technology to Valheim

[gray sand]

More than 2 if they haven't run the timer out yet.

[sage bone]

I mean Is just for me to keep building, I'm just focus on building in game man

[gray sand]

It will be done when it is done. 🤷‍♂️

[gray sand]

After you get through this, turn raids off with the world sliders.

[grand juniper]

I want travel via catapult

[gray sand]

I want Feather Cape removed from the game, but alas 😄

[rugged bridge]

If you're really that desperate and are sure about it I can give you a quick hand but you should think things through a bit better with your friends next time lol

[grand juniper]

But its the greatest cape drip

[sage bone]

My friends deal with raids, I cannot turn that off I mean I can but would ruin the experience butII want to build in calm normally thats why I did the stone wall

[merry pebble]

Well... They have been "halfway done" 7 times already then 😅

[gray sand]

Agree to disagree.

[sage bone]

Want me to join a voice room?

[nocturne wolf]

why

[gray sand]

🩼

[grand juniper]

Ok what better cape drip is there? Maybe the wolf belt one but the rest are bland

[rugged bridge]

My headset's in the other room and I cba to get it so just DM me to get me into your world and I'll deal with it

[gray sand]

I follow the teachings of the prophet Edna.
-# No capes.

Although I could take a page from Asatru's book and "just for the reactions" start wearing Linen Cape 😏

[merry pebble]

Tbh, while it is probably the most plain (no pun intended) looking one, it makes it pair really well with lot of the armour sets 🙂

[gray sand]

And the fact it does nothing 😄

[tiny mortar]

Linen cape are we serious

[gray sand]

Yes.

[tiny mortar]

Gah dayum would rather have no cape than that

[merry pebble]

Only if our last name is Black 😄

[nocturne wolf]

call to arms should've changed it

[gray sand]

I genuinely don't wear capes.
So me wearing it would be the "fine I wear capes" move 😄

[merry pebble]

But its customizable 😏

[tiny mortar]

Wood shields are customisable too, lets start using them!

[wintry valve]

imagine if instead of introducing electricity or whatever, Deepnorth will introduce the power of Finances and the final boss will be the IRS

[merry pebble]

I actually do 😄

[gray sand]

I.. do use the wood shield.

[tiny mortar]

After meadows?

[gray sand]

Yes.

[merry pebble]

Untill i get bronze, yeah

[tiny mortar]

That is craaaazy

[silk token]

if linen capes didnt go 3 yards past your toes they could be cool, or had other textures or shapes or holes

[tiny mortar]

Well ye until u get the next upgrade

[gray sand]

You don't immediately get Bronze. So I am using the Wood Shield after Meadows.

[gray sand]

Given they are a lighter material, would be interesting if they didn't give the warmth but gave like +3% movespeed.

[wintry valve]

Well I dont see why they couldnt also protect against cold

[merry pebble]

Well, single sheet of linen wouldnt really keep you warm.

[silk token]

eh maybe. how bout +1 comfort?

[wintry valve]

maybe its not a single sheet

[silk token]

i take it back actually now i see a stupid little chest by the bed and i have to equip and unequip every time i sleep or rest i hate it

[full mesa]

anyone know why a floating log is in my house

[chrome badge]

Too much fiber in your diet.

[weary egret]

Playing online?

Maybe someone shot it towards the house with the shotgun

[azure jewel]

Hey I wanna use lossless scaling together with r2modman on my steam deck. Both need launch options is there a way to make it work?

[merry pebble]

I would ask folks in #mods-discussion 😄

They might know how to help you

[azure jewel]

Wasnt sure if that counts as a mod issue 😄

[merry pebble]

As it involves a mod launcher, i would say probably yes🤔

[tribal trench]

I found the Queen with my buddies this morning and a TON of soft tissue with a good helping of Royal Jelly.. Today has turned out to be more productive that I thought it would be for sure

[chrome badge]

I love those moments in Valheim, I also have had a productive day so far, my first Frost Cave I ventured into was Geirrhafa's cave by complete accident.

[tribal trench]

Very nice!

I'm so happy right now lol this calls for celebrations, because this means I will have my crew ready for DN I assume by the time we hit Ashland shores! We have been going a little slow trying to make use of the time by leveling skills

[rugged bridge]

I'm assuming DN's update will bring extra content to earlier stages of the game as well so I'll be starting a fresh world then

[lone rampart]

They've hinted as much. I'm looking forward to it!

[verbal mist]

Has anyone experienced hardest difficulty raids? Is it a nightmare or doable?

[gray sand]

Are those mutually exclusive?

[verbal mist]

We always play hardest difficulty over world but abit skeptical turning on the raids

[gray sand]

If you have multiple people everything is easier.

[verbal mist]

Co-op not solo

[gray sand]

That was implied when you said "we" 🙂

[verbal mist]

Yes does anyone have experience with them?

[gray sand]

Many people.

[verbal mist]

Thks for the input 😂

[gray sand]

Are you missing the parts where I answered you?

[verbal mist]

Ya you said they are easier in a group isn’t that common knowledge? lol

Tells me nothing

How many mobs? 2-3 stars? Ect

Highest difficulty raids in case you missed my question

[gray sand]

Well, at first I asked if "nightmare" and "doable" are mutually exclusive.
Because there are doable nightmares.

Also mobs are the same, just health/damage values adjusted to your difficulty.
No enemy has 3 stars.

[tired path]

I played in Hard (not Very Hard) and raids to the maximum enabled as a 2-player party. Honestly most of the time you can solo raids. The Wolf raid is very annoying but not impossible

[verbal mist]

Can we expect a large amount of them or just harder mobs?

[gray sand]

If all you changed was difficulty same amount.

If you changed raid frequency, you will get more.

[tired path]

The problem is a levelled raid (for example, a Wolf raid while mining Silver for the first time), or a Fuling raid when visiting Plains for the first time

[verbal mist]

Are the trolls rough with a wood base?

[tired path]

Otherwise, they're a walk in the park

[verbal mist]

Ah yes that’s truth

[tired path]

Luring them away from your base shouldn't be an issue. If you let trolls get close and don't stop them in time, they will break your base even if it's made of stone

[verbal mist]

Is separate settings

[tired path]

My experience is with raids at the max frequency and the game in Hard

[verbal mist]

Ya that’s the main thing I’m worried about

[tired path]

With raids at max frequency, trolls always came in pairs

[verbal mist]

Trolls braking down our base to bits 😂

[tired path]

I don't think I've ever seen 3 of them coming at once

Maybe one time? We were playing as a duo

[verbal mist]

Ok 2 is max?

Max 3

[tired path]

No clue, it's just my experience

[verbal mist]

Ok Thks that’s a good tip. Lure them away from your base. The trolls at least

Drakes I don’t think can do much to roofs

[tired path]

Honestly the Surtling raid was much more difficult to contain

They like going after your stuff and do quite the damage

And there's a lot of them. The Drake raid was also easy to hold off due to them not being THAT many at once

[verbal mist]

Ok we’ll give it a try. Hopefully our base isn’t in ruin by the weekend 😆

I know trolls make quick work of wood structures

[tired path]

Just lure them away, they'll chase you over your building

[verbal mist]

Ya true

[tired path]

If you have Black Forest tier gear it'll be a pain, but as I said, raids are only a problem when they're levelled to you (Troll raid in BF gear, Draugr raid in Swamp gear... you name it)

If you have Mistlands gear and get assaulted by a couple trolls, you won't bat an eye. Just a minor inconvenience

[verbal mist]

We’re mountains gear so I think I fear the wolves most

They hit like trucks hardest difficulty

Thks for your tips sir. I didn’t think about kiting trolls around to keep them off our walls

[wintry valve]

also, fight them with spears

a regular old flint spear wrecks them

[verbal mist]

We’ve always used fire arrows to melt them pretty quick

[wintry valve]

that also works well

[ashen ravine]

I come back for no reason ._.

Anyways. Vinny I tried making up something (I hope) would match Valheim.

[wintry valve]

?

[ashen ravine]

Before I send it

Do you think kingdoms and war match the Valheim vibe (stupid question I know

[wintry valve]

I dont know what that is

[ashen ravine]

Oof-

[verbal mist]

I don’t think many games match this games vibe honestly. We’re closing in on 1000 hours and still not sick of it

[ashen ravine]

Noice

[verbal mist]

Check out some mods changes everything

[ashen ravine]

Could but can’t ._.

[verbal mist]

There are mods that completely change the way you play the game

[ashen ravine]

I’m using a pc that isn’t mine so id have to ask them if I could configure.

So I just try to make do by watching videos on how Valheim servers look ._.

[verbal mist]

Do you have to ask him to download a file you mean?

[ashen ravine]

Yeah unfortunately.

[serene horizon]

[serene horizon]

One message removed from a suspended account.

I don't think anyone other than the devs would be able to ballpark that.

Does it matter?

[chrome badge]

27.7k on steam currently.

[chrome badge]

🤷 It's a good game

[gray sand]

Lies! It is a horrible game!
That's why so many of us have over 1,000 hours in it 😛

[fossil delta]

Amateur numbers.

[merry pebble]

-# Well technically any number above 1000 fits what Sev said 😛 including 2, 3, 4, 5,... thousand.

[gray sand]

And I set the bar low so I could say "many" 😉

@nocturne wolf is there any thing in the code for shields that governs how far you get punted back when blocking?

[wintry valve]

I only have 805 hours on it

I hate this game its bad nobody likes it and it ruined my life

Btw I kinda plan to build a taller tower

[gray sand]

Taller than? 👀

[merry pebble]

The previous tower? 👀

[gray sand]

HOW TALL WAS THAT?

[wintry valve]

oh, huh

I made it three stories high

its more like a cube right now

[gray sand]

Cube it up, use iron gates and the green torches.

WE ARE BORG

[wintry valve]

no way ill have to farm gunk

I refuse your proposition

[gray sand]

True. I wish we could just chop those trees down and they dropped all guck on breaking.

[wintry valve]

unrelatedly, I with fen... fen... the furries in the mountain that spawns at night would drop some fenrir hair

[gray sand]

Fenrigs.
And yeah, they really should.

Getting their trophy took a while but 100% worth it for the trinket if you use spears or atgeirs.

[wintry valve]

The fact that they basically drop nothing is disappointing

[gray sand]

It's just wolf fangs usually iirc.

[fossil delta]

Well, technically, I went over 5,000 this week.

[merry pebble]

Oooh, congrats! 👀 🎉

[gray sand]

Given they are only night spawns and you're risking 2-star wolves to hunt them, yeah. They should drop 1-2 hairs with the rare drop of a fenris claw.

[fossil delta]

Heh, I don't feel like I need congrats when I had so much fun doing it.

[gray sand]

Also, other people do all of the Hildr dungeons twice right? Once chest for her, one chest for my own decoration?

[wintry valve]

I do not. I did think about doing that but its really not what I am after.

[fossil delta]

Yep. Just wish I would stop picking them back up, eventually.

[wintry valve]

Can you set them on display tables or something?

[fossil delta]

They need to be a stand item.

[gray sand]

Not at the moment. I have them in a chest right now because I am hoping they make them a placeable in 1.0

[fossil delta]

I throw them out to where I want them to sit, but eventually I will pick them back up when I get close enough.

Like I put them down near our beds, as clothing chests, because they actually look like clothing chests.

[gray sand]

I'm sure it's been in #suggestions to make them placeable.

[fossil delta]

I would hope so.

If that becomes the case, I'd never return any of the chests to her, since I never use the clothing anyways.

[wintry valve]

the farming set is neat

makes all crops 5% more likely to yield an extra item

[gray sand]

Given how long it takes to level farming, yeah, farming set is really nice.

[fossil delta]

I'm not wearing zero armor clothing in the plains or mistlands, so don't care.

[gray sand]

😄

[chrome badge]

Kills Fader -- Enters impressive looking portal -- Puts on harvest dress and starts plucking flowers 🙂

[gray sand]

My silver grind continues while I wait for my Barley and Flax to grow. Then it is time to conquer the Plains.

[wintry valve]

I was wrong, its not 5%, its 6.25%

even more gooder

[chrome badge]

Harvest dress + Yagluth power is always a good idea.

[gray sand]

Yag has farming now?

[chrome badge]

Yeah +25 Farming Skill

[gray sand]

Nice.
Still probably the lowest ranked power.

[wintry valve]

its the only power that increases damage, I think

[fossil delta]

I don't really care about the bonus crop. As it is, it still makes up for the 1 to 5% failures I have, and thats more than enough for me. I am not wearing zero armor in the plains or Mistlands.

[gray sand]

Oh they nerfed it 👀

[wintry valve]

I just put my set in a nearby chest for when I wanna harvest my crop circle

[gray sand]

Like it used to be full elemental resistance and now it is just lightning 😬

[wintry valve]

yeah but it didnt increase damage back then, I think

[fossil delta]

'They nerfed all of them. So its a good idea to relearn all of them.

[gray sand]

Yeah, they dropped the other resists and added the farming and +10% damage.

[wintry valve]

is there any enemy that does ligthning damage anyway?

[gray sand]

? Only nerfs I see are Yag and Bonemass.

[wintry valve]

you are already resistant to frost at this point and dont tell me that barley wine is hard to make

[fossil delta]

Barley wine is the easiest one to make.

[gray sand]

Eik and Yag are the only enemy sources.

[wintry valve]

he ... oh right when he pukes his yag laser

[fossil delta]

So you haven't noticed they added swimming to Eikthyr? What about The Elder?

[gray sand]

Wiki doesn't have the changelogs for what the powers used to be?

[gray sand]

I think you're confusing nerf with BUFF.

[fossil delta]

To me, nerfing is changing.

[wintry valve]

Personally I think the new yag power is neat. I dont use it tho because I actually forget that I can use forsaken powers in this game.

[chrome badge]

That's not-- alright then.

[gray sand]

To the dictionary and the general gaming community:
Nerf = reduce or make worse
Buff = increase or make better

Elder got a massive buff and is really good now.

To the point it is better to rush him and then use his power to grind your bronze out.

Bonemass nerf was entirely warranted 😄

Moder buff is great too.

[wintry valve]

I wish the moder power wind thing was all the time, not just when sailing

[fossil delta]

It may come as a surprise around here, despite how many hours I have playing Valheim, I am not so into gaming that I learn what gamers define words as. So to me, nerfing is just changing. I do recognize a "buff" as something that makes you stronger, though.

[gray sand]

You mean specifically for Ask Cape?

[wintry valve]

yeah. What else would it be?

[silk token]

1000000% nerf only and always means weakening

[nocturne wolf]

Knockback is reduced at the same percentage as the damage when block armor is applied. If you block an attack with 100 knockback and 20 damage with 10 block armor, you'll take 50 knockback.

Also while looking for this I found that knockback is multiplied by your equipment movespeed so heavy armor and shields will reduce it slightly. I'm not sure if this was known already, I haven't seen this mentioned before. This multiplier is only applied if your equipment movespeed is below 100% so fenris armor won't increase knockback taken.

[silk token]

like a nerf gun or a nerf sword

[gray sand]

I mean Moder does give you just a flat +10% movespeed now.

[wintry valve]

oh

nvm then, its all good

oh another thing

[gray sand]

Yeah, that's why it's top 3 for me now.
+300kg weight and +10% movespeed on land is nuts.

[wintry valve]

the... huh... the trinket that gives 100 health and stam

I wish it gave less but also took less to activate. I just about never activated it during combat. Only when bullying my stig.

[gray sand]

Interesting. Because I have certain things that are just punting me and other things that are not.

[silk token]

you're describing a worse iron brooch

[gray sand]

Having "you get pushed less" on Tower Shields would also give them some oompf.

[wintry valve]

iron brooch doesnt give stamina

[gray sand]

You didn't see my discussion yesterday? 😭 I used your favorite words 😭

[wintry valve]

and I would argue that iron brooch is better because I can actually trigger it

my what now?

[gray sand]

"Modular system" 😉

[silk token]

yeah i think its better too

[fossil delta]

Your talking to someone who has never bought those, for himself or his kids. Which I guess further explains why I don't see that term as anything other than just changing things. To me nerf is just a brand name with regards to such products.

[wintry valve]

Anyway nerf is a gaming term specifically meant to "reduce" a game's element. A change isnt a nerf per se.

[nocturne wolf]

Some attacks do much more knockback than others

[silk token]

thats fine, well welcome to video games, just fyi there are zero people who use nerf to mean anything but weaken that ive ever seen or heard

[nocturne wolf]

Eikthyr's melee has double the knockback of the other attacks

[wintry valve]

seekers have way too much knockback for my taste. I have no idea why they are like that

[fossil delta]

This is the first gaming community I've ever even hung out in, so you collectively educate me about a lot of things.

[cosmic summit]

Brimstone?

[prime delta]

Is there a skill that effects the damage Missiles do? I'm noticing a yellow number in parenthesis next to the damage number like on other weapons.

[wintry valve]

Yeah, that one.

[nocturne wolf]

Most of their attacks deal 40 or 20, it's only the slam attacks dealing 150

[rugged bridge]

It's either something you fight that's hard gets nerfed or something you have that's overpowered gets nerfed, those are the only two options in today's video games

[cosmic summit]

Mine procs all the time in ashlands. I parry everything

[wintry valve]

yeah well its too much anyway

[nocturne wolf]

just don't get hit

[wintry valve]

no u

[rugged bridge]

At least the seekers have to hit you in order to knock you back

[cosmic summit]

Skill issue?

[rugged bridge]

Lox just launches you halfway across the world because you approached him

[gray sand]

I am considering writing one of my rare, in-depth suggestion posts.
It would be about trinkets, and making them craftable with a modular system.
Specific ingredients give you specific effects.
Each effect has an associated adrenaline amount.
So you combine these to make what you want.
If you want a smaller effect that procs more often with a low cost - make it.
If you want more powerful effects - they will cost you more to activate.

Mainly because certain trinkets have 1 good effect that I want, but their adrenaline is bloated to like 70-85 because they have added effects that I don't want.
Example: Wolf Trinket gives +10% Pierce with skill buffs and costs 55 to proc -- good, useable. But if you like Maces, the +10% Blunt trinket costs 85 because it also heals you.
What if I don't want the heal part? What if I just want the Blunt buff? That effect by itself should be down in the 50 range, but I can't get it because of the current system.
@wintry valve

[wintry valve]

Theres something in this that I do not like. I get why you would suggest that and its not a bad idea per se.

[silk token]

oy. yeah like a whole trinket crafting station.

[fossil delta]

I don't even bother with the trinkets anymore. I so rarely fight long enough to even activate them.

[gray sand]

You mean... the artisan table? 👀

[silk token]

weak normal and strong components you add to the trinkets base cost to make it stronger/weaker

not unlike crafting ashlands weaons with gems

[wintry valve]

I would have to think about it to properly explain the what I dont like. Basically its that I think its fine for arrows to be "modular" because they are consumables. Trinkets would basically end up with everyone using the best set and that would be the end of it.

anyway I cant talk more I gotta go to work

[gray sand]

How would you define "best"?

Poke me after work.

[silk token]

but best is subjective some people can or can't achieve 90 adrenaline in life

[nocturne wolf]

Knockback and clubs skill increase

[rugged bridge]

I think the simplest way to include this in the game is to make trinkets upgradeable, they'd start off with a weaker effect for a lower amount of adrenaline, and you can "upgrade" them into what they are now (tweaked for balancing purposes). The weapon progression works similarly in the sense that the higher damaging weapons use more stamina & such

[wintry valve]

Aint something I can do now. Its something that would happen once a new system is made. Right now the current trinket system is a series of choices and compromises. If you can just slap whatever you want within the imposed limits to your trinket, a meta would establish itself.

[silk token]

it would make a large number of players maybe stop complaining if they could get 20 adrenaline and get like 5% whatever

[gray sand]

Genuinely, years ago when Plains wasn't even done, when we first got the Artisan Table I was like "OMG, we have Rubies and Amber Pearls and Silver Necklaces -- jewelcrafting incoming"

But alas....

[fossil delta]

The artisan table is too late for what? Nearly half of the trinkets we currently have?

[wintry valve]

im dying

I got viciously mauled on the knee by a rabid wooden chair

[rugged bridge]

So basically a permanent 5% whatever lol

Unless the effect's duration was reduced too

[gray sand]

We have a meta currently?
Because some people would want the Pierce buff, others would want the Slash or Blunt ones. <- automatically no "best" here.
Some people would value stamina regen, others would want EITR regen or flat EITR procs.
Iron Brooch gives you the +20 Armor proc which could go hard with other things.
Given how everyone plays differently and has different preferences, you could math the 100% "optimal" trinket but it would require you to use a specific weapon or playstyle to go with it. And the majority isn't really going to care enough.

[gray sand]

Elaborate on how this would work specifically with adding effects?

[rugged bridge]

It wouldn't, seeing as how adding effects is a whole new mechanic I don't see the devs ever doing it

What I proposed would just be a lazy solution to the problem

[gray sand]

Not entirely true, we do add effects to Ashlands weapons.

[fossil delta]

I'd be shocked if they added it as well. I felt the same about magic, but they did do that, so... who knows?

[rugged bridge]

Sure, but it's not exactly custom, just predetermined

[gray sand]

Predetermined by resource used.

This was your idea 😭

[rugged bridge]

And it's the same 3 effects for every weapon lol

For the trinkets, it'd be a considerably larger amount

[silk token]

i guess? i dont really care lol. if they want to have their 5% let them, what’s 5% anyway at least they can feel like they’re playing with trinkets

[rugged bridge]

What's 5% you ask? One inventory slot I'll never get back

[silk token]

true

[rugged bridge]

We're doomed if DN comes out with another equippable and no solution to the inventory problem

[silk token]

I just know there are people who say it’s impossible to get 40 stamina, and I’m like… I don’t understand how they combat? Like I’m not sure I wouldn’t accidentally get 40 stamina.

[fossil delta]

I'd be more likely to use trinkets if they lowered the threshold for activating them. Like I said earlier, I activate them so rarely I have stopped bothering to wear them.

[silk token]

case and point

[fossil delta]

I have to be in rather over whelming situations for them to even activate. Like meleeing raids, entire fuling villages, and the like.

[silk token]

That is the stated purpose of them

[rugged bridge]

70 adrenaline is my upper limit if the boost is good enough, anything above that I'll pass for whatever the effects

[silk token]

Trinket on the hole pairing stamina, a change was to help players not get slowly overwhelmed

Interesting voice to text there

[fossil delta]

I never read a stated purpose for them. Is there small print some where I've failed to see? Or is this in the patch notes I rarely even read, let alone memorize?

[silk token]

I agree 70 is about as high as I want to. I tested trinkets against goblin villages a lot, and my mountain trinkets very rarely triggered in a way that was meaningful.

[fossil delta]

Even when they trigger, their duration is too limited.

[silk token]

I’ve cleared infested minds with my iron brooch buff just permanently on, I think it’s a combat style issue

[gray sand]

Bronze is also easy to have 100% uptime on because it lasts a full minute.

[rugged bridge]

Part of the reason why I prefer instant gain ones

Fight's well in progress by the time any trinket activates

[silk token]

same. Crystal heart is like cool now I take 25% less damage finishing the last enemy off with my 10 health.

[rugged bridge]

It sounded so good on paper to have a passive bonemass activation the first time I read into trinkets, until I read the adrenaline requirement lol

Current playthrough I've been using iron brooch the whole time, the health burst is convenient when potions are on cooldown, and the extra armor is a little bit of extra protection while you recover

[silk token]

It’s the best one

[fossil delta]

Very possible. I use a lot of poison bombs in those mines.

[silk token]

Yup, that would be a great way to not have adrenaline

[fossil delta]

Great way to not have to fight a bunch of ticks and seekers, period. 2 bombs kills all of them.

[errant bobcat]

im a newbie and need someone to play with

[rugged bridge]

Yeahh, feel bad for having my friend take those bracelets whatever whatever from the plains that give more health and blunt damage

Ended up with him never triggering it and my brooch activating even when I didn't need it lol

[fossil delta]

You can try to find people on #1024264966712340510

[silk token]

bracelets of the brave, I mean, if you can activate it and you use clubs, it sounds pretty good

[rugged bridge]

Yeah you're not activating that shit lol

[silk token]

I meant to try them this run, I wanted to do vile armor set and porcupine and bracelet of the brave. But then I remembered axes are still in the game and here I am.

[rugged bridge]

85 adrenaline is just too much

[gray sand]

That's one of the ones that leads to my suggestion.
85 for a blunt buff when pierce is only 55 solely because of the added effect is bonkers to me.

[silk token]

Right, it’s like OK. What if you want blunt damage boost, but you don’t want the health

[fossil delta]

I do like his idea. It might get me to start using trinkets again.

[gray sand]

I think Flip's "upgrade" idea has the best chance of actually passing compared to a complete overhaul. So I am going to ruminate on it.

[silk token]

i’m thinking of like a horadric cube or you can put any number of whatever in to get trinkets and add to them more or differently, and each time it would just increase the adrenaline requirement

[rugged bridge]

My idea narrows down to praying they reuse already existing systems on the trinkets

[silk token]

I mean, adding gems to Ashland’s weapons is probably exactly the sort of thing

You make an iron brooch, now you unlock three things you can put things on the iron brooch

[gray sand]

Oh I can make it work, don't worry. Just need to math out how much effects cost and then determine a suggested singular base effect per trinket.

[rugged bridge]

Problem is that those are predetermined, making it so you can customize every effect combination wouldnt be the same probably

[gray sand]

Because base effects would be unique to the trinket, and then you'd have "addables" that can go on anything.

[rugged bridge]

Unless you had like 9 different variants of each one lol

[gray sand]

More than 9.

Visually they wouldn't have to change, or just slight color variants if a designer felt compelled.

[rugged bridge]

Let's be real no one sees their model anyway unless they purposely take off all their armor so it doesn't matter what they look like

[gray sand]

It matters because someone did spend the effort modeling them.

[rugged bridge]

That money time and effort could've gone into balancing them properly instead

[silk token]

I guess it would have to be something with the artisan table, i’m thinking of like socketing equipment in Diablo 2, but if the gem was flawed or flawless it would have different adrenaline requirements

[gray sand]

Completely different departments, so no.

[gray sand]

Not going to use gems.
But would say Artisan for upgrading them, so the UI isn't cluttered in other tables.

[silk token]

Sure, not gems exactly, but like… Honey gives you stamina or bone gives you blunt damage I don’t know

I mean, all this said, I’m perfectly happy using iron brooch through deep north it’s the perfect one

[gray sand]

Wolf is my current favorite.

[rugged bridge]

True but too early to say for now, I'd be surprised if they didn't do something, literally anything, to make certain trinkets more viable with the DN update

Seems like a hot topic especially with their addition being the most recent update

[subtle perch]

Hello. I got the board game and looks like having all the components. Where can i go to say that everything is ok? If they need that

[merry pebble]

In update #41 on the gamefound site you can join MOOD discord, or just go to the comments on the gamefound website. While they don't require it i am sure they will appreciate feedback 🙂

[dark coyote]

I think the % regen ones are good for that, can save you from a dot or refresh you for the next encounter

[gray sand]

% stamina regen is flatout good.
% eitr vs. eitr bump is debatable based on how often you can proc the bump one.
% health regen is garbage so health bump just wins in that comparison.

[chrome badge]

There is a downside to the instant health gain as well, you can have the health gain be eaten by either having full hp or taking a hit soon after activation.

[silk token]

not as hot as stamina-less parrying XD

[silk token]

true, its sort its own playstyle to get used to. in ptr i got really good at taking exactly my brooch heal in damage while battleaxing groups

[chrome badge]

Damn T.W.I.G. just made me realize I can block and dodge on the same attack, this thing is handy.

[rugged bridge]

Oh yeah? How was that received?

[silk token]

very passionate opposites

[gray sand]

It's bullshit.

[chrome badge]

Yeah, it can be a very different feeling to the regen trinkets, that aren't exactly punishing for timing, but don't have as much clutch potential.

[silk token]

some people like me posting videos perma-parrying 10 ashland mobs saying “do you see what you’ve done???” and the other side like “finally i can beat the black forest!”

it’s pretty awful, I just entirely disregard my stamina bar now, I don’t think I even look at it when I fight. What’s the point. entire chunk of gameplay removed from the game.

[rugged bridge]

Same as with the ashlands nerf I'm indifferent to it since I know it's targetting newbies and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it even if I wanted to

[silk token]

like oh no, I didn’t have enough stamina to attack, I guess I’ll just parry free for a few seconds while my stamina regenerates

[rugged bridge]

I do hate the fact that on top of iframes you actually gain stamina for dodging an attack lol

Call me biased but valheim's the first game where I've ever seen your stamina go up when dodging

[silk token]

I could possibly stop complaining if they at least paused the stamina regeneration when parrying

[rugged bridge]

At least right off the bat without any magical item to make it so

[light moat]

I think a decent counter would be making some attacks unable to be parried, now thats a hot topic

[silk token]

that would be sweet, actually, unblockable attacks. I thought about that with the bear and how much I enjoyed the mechanics of I can and cannot parry certain attacks.

[rugged bridge]

Not unheard of, one of the games I played a while back had such a system, had a dark red flash above the attacker indicating it's a move you cannot parry. The attack would just cleave you through your block or attempted parry

[silk token]

Like the berserker rage attack, the big overhead of the abomination, there are certain attacks that just look like they should hurt more than they do. I’m sure there’s some kind of coding thing that would be too much of an ask for them to do at this point, but it would be cool.

[glad night]

Kingdom come deliverance has that

[silk token]

I’m hoping deep north has some cool mobs like the bear who have widely varying attacks. Other than the bears movements and AI I think the bear is awesome.

[rugged bridge]

If there's no polar bear in DN, my life is a lie

[silk token]

I mean just today one swam out of foot into the water and got stuck on a small rock. I had to build him a little bridge so he could come back in so I could try to get his head.

[chrome badge]

Enemies could have an adverse effect with a rage meter, where as we build adrenaline, they build rage to make a single attack unblockable/unable to be parried.

[silk token]

i’m not excited re-skins of things

[silk token]

eh, i like just one move that can happen any time like bear bite or golem/troll slam

[lone rampart]

This is my first time ever in the Ashlands, and I. Am. TERRIFIED.

[chrome badge]

Ah you mean you'd rather those move be unblockable?

[silk token]

you should be

[chrome badge]

Also, I keep misreading "You Feel Cold" as "You Feel Old" 😢 👴

[lone rampart]

"Well yes. But also cold."

[silk token]

uhm i guess, with the golems and trolls the ground slam would be cool unblockable, I mean, how do you block an area of damage all around you?

but with the bear, I just think it’s cool there’s a high damage attack it can whip out at any moment.

[dark coyote]

I would say make verticals +dodge/-parry and vice versa

[silk token]

So it’s not just I’m blocking or dodging every single attack which is boring, you actually have to read the attack quick enough and make a decision

[rugged bridge]

Neither am I but I have a very strong gut feeling it'll exist

[silk token]

it would be a little lame, like hey a mob whose move set I already know everything about

[rugged bridge]

But it's okay, it's fine

No matter how many reskins in the DN update

It'll never be as horrible as the hildir update

[silk token]

and I would say “look a polar bear“ and my favorite mobs in Valheim are ones that I see and yell “what the hell is that” and start running

[chrome badge]

I don't think any reskins have the same move set.

[rugged bridge]

New content : fight 3 reskins in dungeons full of 1 star mobs

Insane engagement

[chrome badge]

A bit cynical, that has yet to happen.

[rugged bridge]

Pretty much has happened, all 4 of the mobs that give chests are reskins with like one additional move

And that'd be acceptable if they were just regular mobs, but they're not, they're minibosses

[tacit crystal]

https://tenor.com/view/so-old-gif-27277116

[chrome badge]

Ah, well those are within the same biome, I was speaking more about when you said reskins in the DN update.

Even all the blobs have different movesets.

[rugged bridge]

Yeah, I'm fine with that since they're just basic mobs and not really considered special

[silk token]

you know, I never even thought of the blobs as re-skins because they were different enough

[chrome badge]

Haha they slipped em by ya

[chrome badge]

Yeah, I've just yet to see any direct reskins with recycled move sets in different biomes. Typically they'll just throw in the same mob and up the chances of a starred appearing, like skeletons in the swamp.

[mint vapor]

How do you tame boars? I have them fenced outside of my walls (if I put them inside they get frightened) but we get raided every 2 days and they get killed?

[rugged bridge]

I always knew, but my experience with them was pretty funny so I give them a pass lol

[silk token]

s land is hard and wild but we who are brought here are harder still. Take comfort, traveller, in the gifts before you, the good wood and stone, the fruits and flowers of the forest.
Look also to the wild boar who roam these lands. They fear fire and the hand of man but they can be taught to obey it. Go quietly to them and let them eat of your stock. Roots of the ground are their pleasure.

[chrome badge]

Throw them 3 mushrooms/berries each, and wait for 30 minutes for them to tame. Do not let them see you or become alerted during the process. If they're close enough, build a tunnel from the outside pen to the inside pen.

[rugged bridge]

Swamp : "Oh cool a blob"
Plains : "Wait wasn't this thing green two biomes ago?"
Ashlands : "Wait wasn't this thing black~ OH SHIT IT'S GONNA BLOW"

[coarse ether]

[rugged bridge]

Making the lava blobs explode was the funniest thing ever

[silk token]

yeah, hilarious, the first time I thought I can kill it in one more hit. Oh, it blew up anyway. And a new mineral to mine oops it blew up and killed me.

[chrome badge]

My first venture in Ashlands, I was running from about 13 charred, and Dvergr exploded out of a structure to save me-- but just as they finished off the final charred, a blob landed next to the two survivors. Rest in peace to my saviors.

[rugged bridge]

Valheim's very own demolitionists

[silk token]

And hey, I finally perched myself up on this tower in the middle of lava. Now I can mine. Oops a random thing knocked me in the head and I’m in lava.

[chrome badge]

This is fine.

[silk token]

I feel like someone who loved dark souls was involved in Ashland’s. There was a level of ha ha you died.

[west mica]

Literally

The mobs in Dark Souls 3 do not hit as hard as charred

At least the warriors, the archers and twitchers meh

[chrome badge]

Morgens are very dark souls coded

[west mica]

FromSoftware has a lot more resources, so more animations, so harder to learn their patterns

[nocturne wolf]

Starred enemies are getting very strong in later biomes because of valheim's armor, dying in one hit will may be very common in deep north

[west mica]

Once you know a mob in Valheim is easy, the thing that makes up for it is that if one manages to hit you, it does a bigger % of your HP

[rugged bridge]

2 star charred warrior walking towards you is enough to shit bricks

[west mica]

2 stars in Ashlands are minibosses

[nocturne wolf]

the warriors aren't too bad with good movement and a silver sword

[west mica]

My first ever Ashlands experience, I had literally just got off the boat, a no star charred went bonk and I was dead

[nocturne wolf]

jump around their side and stab their back a few times

[west mica]

Fair enough

I like to parry if I can
But also carrying a tower shield and blocking everything then poking makes me feel very manly

[nocturne wolf]

The first enemy I found in ashlands was a one-star warrior

[rugged bridge]

My first one was during the beta client version so it went something more like fighting off hordes of hell while my friend was getting the portal down, and then they broke the portal so we swapped places

[nocturne wolf]

it left me on single-digit health when I killed it

[rugged bridge]

And it kept going on like that for several minutes of agonizing wave defense

[west mica]

Yeah sometimes in the Ashlands I get nothing done all day, I fight all day to move like 10m

[nocturne wolf]

you got fighting done all day

[west mica]

I'm sure theres some kind of landing party spawn, because I had one dodgy area where whenever I got a portal in, every single time a bonemaw spawned next to me in the water and a bunch of charred turned up

[rugged bridge]

Don't worry bro only 70m more until the flametal deposit, you'll get there by next week

[west mica]

I'm so gutted I wasnt recording this, but yesterday I was on honey and mushrooms felling trees, then out of the dust a 2 star fuling appeared, one frame later it was bonk and dead

https://tenor.com/view/mvp-montel-vontavious-porter-entrance-wwe-smack-down-gif-18167071

It was like that

I was soo far away from the plains too

[gray sand]

Night time?

[thorny lake]

Damn idk what a fuling is but i dont wanna meet one

[gray sand]

Yoda but angry and less jumping.

[fossil delta]

Don't worry, you can beat one even in bronze gear.

Its the entire village you have to worry about. 😄

[dark flare]

Large rocks. Boulders even. Are your friend.

[tiny mortar]

Does new moder power stack with megingjord?

[gray sand]

And Troll Mead, yes.

[tiny mortar]

Sick, thanks

So whats the max capacity you can get?

Dont know anything about bog witch potions

[gray sand]

300 (Base) + 150 (Belt) + 300 (Moder) + 250 (Mead) = 1000

[tiny mortar]

Thats insane

[gray sand]

And yet people will still complain it isn't enough 😉

[tiny mortar]

Gonna come in clutch for fast flametal mining

[tiny mortar]

Theyre carrying cultivators and hoes in their hotbars!

[gray sand]

Technically you can hit 1150, but that's only during the 50s "Corpse Run" interval.

[tiny mortar]

Of course its not enough 😵

[merry pebble]

Hey! I never once complained about game not giving you enough carry weight options!

[foggy glacier]

I'm gonna need this soon. I just popped open a portal I left a while back to find 25 stacks of silver in one of those wells in a mountain.

[tacit crystal]

Carrying black metal around the plains after the update is now more enjoyable when you can just pop Moder and troll endurance and go as pack mule with haste.

[merry pebble]

The mead is really good reason to go fishing too 😄

[solemn cargo]

anyone have thoughts on when deep north will come out

[merry pebble]

We have no idea 😄 we just know that devs dont plan any updates for the end of the year

[solemn cargo]

So 2026?

[merry pebble]

Most likely i would say, while we dont have a "due to" date i personally think its unlikely it would take another year 🙂
But still possible mind you

[pliant hatch]

Can be 2056 even.

[merry pebble]

Yeah, the extent of the info we have really is just "Devs dont plan any updates for the end of the year."

[solemn cargo]

ok

[gray sand]

Can the new blackmetal BA cut through ygg wood or is that still only the 1-hander?

[merry pebble]

Now that is an interesting question, one would think it should cut it, will go test

[nocturne wolf]

They're both tool tier 4

[merry pebble]

so yes XD couldnt even start a world

[gray sand]

This means NOTHING

It's all about CHOP DAMAGE 😏

Otherwise you're saying that bosses and trolls and such have a "tool tier" 😄

[merry pebble]

I will give you a stone axe that does thousands of dmg and want to see you chop down birch with it xD

[nocturne wolf]

They both have 60 base chop damage but the 1h axe gains 3 per level and the battleaxe gains 2.5 per level

[silk token]

it can ive done it

although sometimes those trees can sway side to side, you might find the battleaxe swings too slow to hit them 😜

[nocturne wolf]

Every item (and enemy attacks are items) has a tool tier, it's usually 0 though

[gray sand]

Assuming you're in Mistlands; have you found all ingredients?
As well as having upgraded your cauldron to its maximum level ànd have the food preparation table?

[formal badge]

I believe I've found all the items; my cauldron is level 4. I can craft the magic weapons, but not the food.

[pliant hatch]

The cauldron should be level 5 for Mistlands food.

You will also need the food preparation table to get some of the things going that will require the oven later.

Here's the Wiki page of the cauldron with a list of what's needed for upgrading it https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Cauldron so you can check what's missing.

[formal badge]

Does the Spice Rack item still exist?

[wintry valve]

yes

i had great fun finding turnips to make it

cuz turnips are the fanciest spice

[formal badge]

Seriously? Is a turnip different from an onion?

[nocturne wolf]

Turnips are earlier

[wintry valve]

you get them from swamps

[formal badge]

Oh my god, I've already defeated Yagluth and I still haven't found a turnip hahaha

[wintry valve]

theres your problem

The principles of sorcery are based on turnips

[nocturne wolf]

Turnips need to be more common

[formal badge]

Do the turnips grow in the open air or inside the crypts?

[wintry valve]

open

[nocturne wolf]

They grow like carrots but rarer

[wintry valve]

them be yellow flowers

[formal badge]

They were a great help, I'll go look for them.

[cosmic summit]

is there a bug that causes all of your skeletons to be melee?

i just summoned 7 melee bonebois in a row 🙁

Bad rng happens.
I had 8 in a row

im up to 10

[gray sand]

Imagine if you summon a ranged troll 😄

[wintry valve]

I have returned

[wintry valve]

You mean like the one in the black forest that throws rocks at you?

[gray sand]

Yeee

[wintry valve]

is corewood an actual real thing or its just a valheim thing?

I just searched for that and I got like all the valheim links

[gray sand]

Well, if the "normal" wood we get is the equivalent of your standard framing lumber, it would be softwood. Where Valheim's Finewood would be the equivalent of hardwood.

So where Corewood ranks is... yeah that's a pickle.

[wintry valve]

big house made of pickles

[dark coyote]

anyone use the refined corewood pieces mod?

[gray sand]

#mods-discussion

[dark coyote]

really pine would be softwood (coniferous), oak = hardwood, im guessing finewood is supposed to be hard since its birch

[gray sand]

Fine drops from Oak though 😉

[dark coyote]

yeah im guessing thats what they mean by "fine" which is a little misleading

[gray sand]

And I was mainly separating "building wood" vs. "decorative wood" as they are used in the game.

[dark coyote]

like bows should be made from corewood if thats soft, (yew is a conifer), hardwood should be furniture and clubs/staves/handles or w/e

[gray sand]

Valid.

Where do you put Yggdrasil Wood? 😏

[loud mesa]

Anyone have suggestions for how to beat Yagluth? My friends an I started a new play thru and we are really struggling to defeat it. I don't remember Yagluth being this difficult to beat before.

[gray sand]

Silver Sword + Barely Wine.

[loud mesa]

Tried that. Even with the barley wine we get burned to death any time we get close.

[gray sand]

Well obviously don't stand in the fire 😉

Which will always be placed on his right side.

Right hand is fire pool. Left hand is meteors.

[loud mesa]

we dodge when he raises his right hand but the radius of the his close up fire attack still hits us. It has a bigger radius thatn i remeber

[gray sand]

Just being on the total opposite side of him will put you right on the edge of it, so back up a couple steps and he will turn out of it to you.

If there is 2 of you, just have 1 person tank and position him while the other peppers him with Frost Arrows.

[loud mesa]

yeah, we tried frost arrows. We burned thru our supply of 600 without taking him down.

how do you tank him?

[gray sand]

oof

By "tank" I just me "be close enough that he is targeting you instead of the other people".

[loud mesa]

ah, so kite him

[gray sand]

That's the only kind of tanking we have unless they add a taunt mechanic.

[loud mesa]

in other games tank usually means soak damage

[gray sand]

Which you force by being able to taunt things so they have to attack you.

[loud mesa]

depends on the game.

[gray sand]

Or by having some kind of threat system.

[loud mesa]

so approach from the left and use frost arrows. anything else?

[gray sand]

Mead and Silver Sword are the main 2 things.

Frost Arrows for any ranged person.

[loud mesa]

why silver sword vs other silver weapons?

[gray sand]

Because it is BiS for that fight.

[loud mesa]

BiS?

[gray sand]

Best in Slot.

[loud mesa]

ok. why is it BiS?

[gray sand]

Given the goal is "kill him" -- what would you assume "best" means in this context?

[loud mesa]

There are other silver weapons. i generally roll with the Frostner

[gray sand]

There are, but they all do less damage than the sword does.

Which makes them all good, but not best.

[lone rampart]

The sword has a quick attack and doesn’t use a lot of stamina to swing, maximizing your damage output

[gray sand]

Sword also has the most spirit, which is what you're after.

[bronze gust]

bonemass down for oh idk the 100th time on to moder

any server which can play together

[gray sand]

#1024264966712340510

[bronze gust]

no wife and i havent messed with those settings yet, we are playing on the default setting, we started this world before we even knew those settings were added. been 1.5 yrs since we played last. very hard combat tho sounds fun to use almost 1k hrs each. it would push use to max out gear cuz right now we know what we are doing so maxing out isnt really needed for us

[gray sand]

If you understand the combat system, VH just makes the game take longer due to the higher effective HP of enemies.

[vernal karma]

also makes half the mobs 1shot

makes parrying not viable for many fights

[bronze gust]

im down for that XD

[gray sand]

More importantly it makes a ton of them unblockable on even tier food.

Like the best shield for VH is arguably the Serpent Tower Shield.

[bronze gust]

pretty much the way you play in default settings would be almost completly different combat wise then in VH?

[fluid cove]

is this a Monty Python reference :clueless:

[gray sand]

Yeah, it all switched to dodgerolling until you're talking about going back to previous biomes.

Which, funnily enough, makes the spear better 😄

Because for some enemies you don't have enough time for a full swing of other weapons after rolling because they aren't staggered.
Spear shines by being able to roll-hit-roll on even the enemies with the fastest attack animations.

[vernal karma]

bucklers become the only reliable parry, but if you miss a parry you die 😄

[bronze gust]

that actually sounds fun F up your done for hehe

[gray sand]

On VH even they aren't enough for many enemies.

Until you get ahead of the curve in food.

[vernal karma]

actively training block becomes very useful

[gray sand]

Also who tf uses normal shields outside of the blackmetal and wood ones?

Wood shield because only option.
Bronze buckler is arguably the single largest defensive upgrade in the game.
Iron buckler.
Silver shield is only 8 armor better than iron buckler so many would say not worth.
Blackmetal shield because no buckler.
Carapace buckler is currently the best shield in the game if you parry.
Even against flametal options.

Anywho, past midnight, so sleep time.

[wintry valve]

I sometime like to have medium shields because I dont always time well my blocks

but, truth be told, I dont use shields currently

[vernal karma]

gigachads parry with their weapons

[vernal karma]

lvl 1 silver shield is 32 armor more then lvl 1 iron buckler

[wintry valve]

you also have to look at the parry bonus. A buckler's effective armor during a parry is much higher than what is indicated. In this case, the silver shield is still better tho

[vernal karma]

high block is also good.

[midnight hornet]

Hi everybody, what a day! Just started over on a new server with my nephew. Introduced him to the game and he loved it! Hopefully we will have many fun hours together slaying some deathsquitos 😄

silver has a spawn height requirement. snow ≠ silver. your starting mountain is almost certainly not tall enough, go sail til you see the hazy shape of a tall mountain in the distance.

Is it normal for 4 chickens to lay 6 eggs in total? Or is that a lucky bug?

[merry pebble]

Normal 😄 they will continue to lay eggs as long as they are fed and have enough space

[nocturne wolf]

Chickens stay happy long enough to lay eggs multiple times when you feed them once

[steady cove]

I see. Nice. Didnt know they can lay multiple eggs at once

[merry pebble]

The limit on space Is 10 chicken in 10 meters iirc

[merry pebble]

Well, not at once, but they can lay them multiple times during one feeding as Blob said

[steady cove]

Ah. Guess then i should be able to get a few more. I made a room for them 6m on 6m

[steady cove]

Huh? They just now hatched and grew up. I literally ran away for 3 min and came back to 6 eggs. From 4 chicken. That just grew up

I only fed them once

[merry pebble]

Yep, so two of them laid egg 2 times, but not 2 eggs at the same time 🙂

[steady cove]

They can lay in such a short period again? Damn. They are fast

[peak vessel]

Hey guys, I have a question. I saw a video of a troll destroying a house. I live in the meadows. Should I be afraid that will happen to me, or can I build my house without worry?

[fluid cove]

if you have progressed to a certain point, there will be random raids where a couple of trolls may come and attack your base

create some defenses to prevent them from doing so i.e. stake walls, a moat, or earth walls

[gray sand]

One day people will stop watching videos 🙁 but it is not this day.

[gray sand]

😮 Just got my first Stone Golem trophy EVER.

[chrome badge]

I just got my first ever earlier as well 😮

[wicked quarry]

Grats! That’s one I’m still missing

[polar osprey]

This playthrough I got stone golem and cultist from first kills lol

[copper bramble]

the golem throphu drop rate should be higher

i have 7 abomination trophies and like 25 troll trophies

[gray sand]

Trophy droprates are fine.

[polar osprey]

Yeah they're good, other than the bear lol

[gray sand]

Given there is a guaranteed bear drop, it too is fine.

[wintry valve]

The other day, I was fighting a golem. Normally I parry them and then use my pickaxe. But this time I was lazy I guess and I just whacked them with my axe.
Im surprised at howbfast it worked.

[polar osprey]

Day 300, killed 30 ish bears, only tophy I have is from Haldor.

[nocturne wolf]

Finding haldor needs RNG too though

[copper bramble]

installing the game should have rng too

[gray sand]

No.

[copper bramble]

oops you rolled bad rng i guess you have to reinstall :)

[chrome badge]

Stone Golem trophy is such an awesome decoration

[gray sand]

Yeah but... trinket.

Oh, I found another for that 😄

I managed to get two when clearing about 6 frost caves, most of which had a frozen lake with a golem in them.

[polar osprey]

The only real RNG is tetra fish

[chrome badge]

Yeah, the first frost cave I found had a Tetra pond, and they were all beached near the edge of the pond.

One of them was even a level 2 🍀

That's super duper rng

This seed I'm playing on has been the most fun I've ever had in Valheim.

[west pulsar]

What's y'all's ranking of the biomes

[wintry valve]

I like the swamp the most, and I loathe the mistlands

The mountain is the most beautiful. The plains are just kind of boring but functional.

[west pulsar]

Hot takes i like it

If i had to say the swamp is low for me

Used to be higher but as i put hours into the game I can't rank it as high

[wintry valve]

I just like the whole of it. Its gloomy, a bit scary, enemies arent relentless and still poses a challenge. And they all drop useful stuff to varying degrees (except the skeletons). The swamp food is easy to make and I still rely on it late game when I want to explore most biomes. The goal of the swamps is straightforward and easy. Its also then you get the best boat.

[glad night]

I like Mistlands

[west pulsar]

My biggest issue with the swamp is the grind

That and a weak soundtrack

[tacit crystal]

Both swamp and mistlands are in my top biomes list.

[west pulsar]

It's boss is the least interesting as well

People love mistlands im a hater tbh

I think the mistlands had my favorite boss though

[wintry valve]

I will admit bonemass is just kind of there

[west pulsar]

I know that's an extremely unpopular take

[wintry valve]

I hate the queen

[west pulsar]

But the queen had the best music and vibes and the idea of a boss dungeon while it had phases

It's the only boss that felt like a BOSS

It's music gives me like diablo vibes which i fw heavy

The emerald flame i would say is close though

The biome its in unfortunately isn't good

But the boss itself is amazing

[wintry valve]

im going to assume you are being held hostage by a giant insect monster and being forced to say this

[peak vessel]

i just kill the first boss and im just farming around

should i worry?

[wintry valve]

worry about what?

[peak vessel]

about a raid on my base

[wintry valve]

oh, kinda, you should make a simple wall

To be honest they dont attack the base as much as they want to attack you, and the earlier raids are kind of easy if you do not let them overwhelm you

[glad night]

Concerned, yes. Not too much to worry about, but I do recommend walls or a moat

[west pulsar]

Nah i just have unpopular opinions

[west pulsar]

I'd start making moats or walls at some point but for now should be good

[peak vessel]

i just stared digging a trench

i feel like im in ww1

[west pulsar]

Eh that works i used to make terrain walls until i learned some tricks

[peak vessel]

i just started , i have like 2-3 hours but mainly just doing the silly
