I'm just some mediocre builder, so my stuff is not too far off from what I've learned from SmittySurvival. Others take his inspiration to completely new heights.

light moat
#

Smitty is such a great builder

strange cradle
#

Absolutely. Have you seen his ship-turned-tavern in the swamps?

#

That is absofuckinglutely amazing stuff.

#

I would never have the patience for that.

#

Or some of the really gargantuan castles I have seen from other builders.

light moat
#

Oooh I haven’t actually! Gonna have to check it out! Yeah his castles are crazy good. I was really happy when he checked out Tiny Glade too!

strange cradle
#

Yup.

#

A little house I made some years ago. Very little influence from Smitty. My later builds have some more influence from him.

blazing gust
#

very nice!

strange cradle
#

Thank you. 🙂

#

Some of the tricks used here can be done with a completely wooden building as well.

#

Like the overhanging roof.

Hey guys, could I bother someone to help me get my gear back? My gear is trapped behind two spawners and a 2 star bow draugr that keeps smokin me. Just need 10 minutes of your time!

#

Nvm, I got it!

strange cradle
#

Archers have a very predictable pattern. You can kill them by anticipating that pattern and sidestepping their arrows, and then filling them with your own arrows. They don't sidestep, ironically. 😉

#

It works best from some distance.

do u think its worth starting my word right now, and get everything up to the new biome or just wait ?

light moat
#

We know the PS version and Switch version are coming this year 🤔

I think you’re fine to start up a world- just don’t get too far north yet, or the new content won’t generate when it comes out.

#

As long as your deep north biome stays untouched, it will effectively update once the content comes out.

is it gonna be a switch 2 exclusive?

light moat
#

I believe so, yeah. Switch 1 can’t handle it.

So it's possible to unstuck items from the tar?

#

I just unstuck one

#

okay....

fossil delta
#

Yeah, you just have to drain the area. In most cases. Some areas near by are harder to drain out than others.

solemn crown
#

Just built Stagbreaker. Any good?

fossil delta
#

As in, I drain the main pool, but near by areas still won't release mats.

I think you may not understand "just headed in." I've spent 45 seconds in the swamps, plus four or five days dead.

fossil delta
#

😄

#

Welcome to the swamps.

solemn crown
#

Dropped all my best gear, so I'm gearing back up to rescue myself and build a base nearby.

fossil delta
#

It is best to build a portal, etc... safely outside of your first swamp, or swamps, until you get used to dealing with the swamps.

#

Landing directly in the swamps from a boat has been the biggest reason for me helping rescue people over the years here.

wanton hearth
#

i usually sneak in for the iron, once i get it and gear up, it becomes easy biome

blazing cobalt
#

Isn't there a team that you can hire to help get gear back? I remember hearing about it a long time ago.

fossil delta
#

Finding crypts has become much harder since the newer biomes were added. I used to find crypts pretty easily in most swamps. Now I can go through entire decent sized swamps, and find none, or maybe one. Like a swamp I went into yesterday. Nice and big, several surtling spawners even, one crypt.

fossil delta
#

I just helped a guy here a couple of days ago.

wanton hearth
#

i did find 15 crypts near my starting biome, cleared all of them

blazing cobalt
#

Hire wasn't the right term, I meant ask.

Just to be clear, its not in or part of this Discord.

#

Most here do not use mods.

thin sonnet
#

Iron brooch or nimble anklet?

gray sand
#

Personal preference.

tacit crystal
paper marsh
eternal blade
#

I prefer anklet myself. Relying on trinket to heal is not a good thing. Most of the time, I get hit because stamina ran out, and you'll definitely spend a lot ofstamina to trigger the trinket, so it's always beneficial

solemn crown
#

Finaly made it back to recover my body from the swamp. Died.

#

This time, I at least have a nearby house and portal.

I cleared an entire infested mine and found 0 black cores lol. Rite of passage?

Imagine you get to Deep North, you go in a cave, there's a shiny new crystal resource. You pick it up, and there's a loud voice echoing:
"A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON..."

strange cradle
#

So... tried my hand at the Queen again first time after the Bonemass nerf... sigh Let's just say it didn't end well and I hardly made a dent in her... Ok, got her down to almost half... But wow... it is REALLY hard to stay alive.

#

You really have to have dodge-roll down pat. No mistakes. If you mistime it, like I'm wont to, you're more or less dead. Well, maybe not, but it's brutal.

Does anyone know why I lag so much when I play on Xbox?

#

Like I’m on an older gen xbox but I’m running like 20fps constantly and less and I don’t know how to get more fps

silk token
frozen fable
#

It is not unusual to use your first 5 Black Cores to get you your Eitr and first crafted items that you want and while your Eitr is processing that is when you continue to explore and find more mines. If your current items are good enough to survive the mines and Mistlands then you will be fine

The older generation

carmine badger
#

Ok you're running on severely diminished GPU power.

empty kiln
empty kiln
carmine badger
#

Yeah you just need to upgrade and when you do get a Series X, not a Series S.

#

Because those games are optimized for your system.

#

Valheim is an indie game and it's difficult for a small team to optimize for specific systems, especially older ones.

empty kiln
#

Yeah that’s true but I was just wondering if there was like anyway I could get more fps

carmine badger
#

To give you an idea of how big of a gap there is between the CURRENT gen Series S and X...

#

The X has 12.15 TFLOPS of GPU power vs 4 TFLOPS of GPU power in the S.

#

So for the Xbox One S...yeah, you're cooked.

empty kiln
#

Yeah I’m aware how bad it is and i can’t upgrade rn

near furnace
#

one thing to note. valheim does not have any limitations to how bad you can make your FPS

#

if you want to build 100,000 build pieces. you can

It sucks cuz I’ve crashed with like 30 cores and lost it all

I hope Valheim comes to PS5 real soon. It’s saying on the PS5 Store 2026..Got the game on my wishlist about 2 weekends ago. Heard about the game off a random YouTuber who play video games.

gray sand
#

2026 is all that is confirmed.

unreal aurora
#

Yep..That is fact on the PS Store status on the PS5.

#

Stuff, I seen and read seems like the devs are putting more things in the game from time to time. That is a good thing! 🙂👍 I’m glad that they still improve things and still cooking up some things time to time. All of you have fun playing the game and take care! 🙂👍

@gray sand As soon as I saw this game on YouTube like 2 weekends ago, I was like oh ok this my type of game. I’m sure it’ll take me like a solid week to figure out how to do things in the game. Like other games, I play. You have a good night! About to watch some episodes of a random tv show, I like and go to bed.

Queen is overtuned AF.

Best gear in the game barely scratches her and you die in two hits, plus she constantly spawns seekers?

Devs are on shrooms. 🤭

wet wolf

magic is very good against her if you are struggling

wary kettle

chrome badge
#

Yeah, I found her attacks to be quite easy to dodge as well, the movements are really telegraphed. Once you figure out a strategy to wipe the adds, it's kinda smooth sailing.

silk token
chrome badge
idle storm
#

magic makes her a cakewalk. Run up the stairs while spamming fireballs, float back down to regen eitr, repeat until death. You never even need to get into melee range.

silk token
#

its a tough one. i think that was my second playthrough vs her. third was health food and blackmetal tower and i just held right click and laughed at her attacks like fine i wont dodge this time.

silk token
idle storm
#

Though before they nerfed Bonemass power you didn't even need to block or dodge, you could just zerg her down in under 5 minutes with 2hp foods and upgraded carapace armor

#

so i'd hardly call her overtuned even for melee

silk token
#

yeah, bonemass was really silly, good nerf

idle storm
#

it's still pretty powerful, you just need to actually use the block button now instead of just facetanking boss hits

chrome badge
#

Yeah, she might be one of the easiest when you consider that you just leave whenever and try again with renewed supplies/timers.

#

No chase involved there, you can even have your portal right outside her door. 😅

idle storm
#

yeah that too

#

as long as you have a decent aoe option to deal with the adds you shouldn't need to though

silk token
idle storm
#

ooze bombs exist and are more than sufficient to deal with seeker brood

#

so yeah, there's really no excuse

or he got close enough to get hit by it

Yeah, i was about to ask if you didn't accidentally hit one of them while destroying the crate 😄

storm sinew
#

Silly me xD

#

Now i have to deal with the 1 star dvegr mage who hits like a truck

#

1 starred dvegr mage almost destroyed my stone portal which will be kinda annoying if it ended up getting destroyed

tacit crystal

#

Dvegrs love to get near on the crates and stuff

tacit crystal
#

And last run with my group, one of us had Thundering axes and fighting mobs near dvergr camp in Ashlands, then he accidentally aggroed some of those dvergr with that chaining lightning, suddenly I get hit with 200 damage by 1 star dvergr, dying instantly, then soon after me the others in my group respawned from their beds. 😆

storm sinew
#

Idk why that 1 starred dvegr mage fireball is not a fireball more like an inferno xD

frozen fable
#

I killed the Queen with melee for half the fight then switched to magic for the other half when I realized melee had some issues, but no regrets. Took 30 mins to down her. Been hanging out just fine in the Ashlands with both melee and magic but I do prefer magic

#

1 star dvger fire mage deals: Fireball: 195 Fire + 150 Fire, no wonder my shield of protection level 4 is broke by just a shot from that fireball

#

then there is the Clusterbomb that deals 150 fire + 150 fire

#

If 1 starred dvegr fire mage deals this much, i cant imagine what damage a 2 star can do

ebon rune
#

They're not overly difficult to kill with a fire staff, but it takes up precious Eitr and the queen like to sneak up on you

idle storm
#

well yeah you need the feather cloak to get the necessary regen time

#

you can also bring some bile or ooze bombs as an attack option when your eitr is low

My group got a 4th friend into the game on Friday. We just got to plains so we geared him for plains but he doesn't have any experience yet. We're working on taking down a lox when he runs in with a mace and no shield. I tried to warn him but before I could I saw his skeleton get removed from his skin in 1 hit.

Then on the way back from the nearest portal, he makes a beeline straight for his corpse neglecting to notice the uncleared fuling village in between. He pulled a leroy jenkins on the whole group. FulingSquint

I've never done permadeath. I just try to not die for as long as possible. Like my last run I was almost to the final boss when I had my first death. I'm not going to throw all those hours away just because I finally died. So I look at the rest as practice for my next try.

wanton hearth
#

i did core keeper, terraria, diablo, valheim and deus ex HE permadeaths

#

around 100 replays on deus ex, got so good that i was able to take all the enemies for max xp, collect every item and not shoot a single bullet (except for bosses). The worst run was when i faced a final boss (the moment when you want to waste all your combat rifle bullets). I threw an attachable-grenade (mine template) to the final boss. The boss died, and so did I 😄 😄 best experience ever

If I did 100 replays on Valheiim, that would be...25,000 hours. Yeah, not doing that.

I think I am bad enough with over 5300.

it is hard, definetely not for everyone, I just like the thrill, it's... intense.

it's kinda like playing the game for the first time every time, if you know what i mean. Even if you replay dozens of time

in Valheim i was building something, something high, and slipped and felt down, 1 HP left. My reaction to the event: frozen for a minute, reevaluating the gameplay

Yep. As long as you have over 100 HP you can survive any fall.

Its amazing going from the casual mindset that lets you stand in front of bear, trolls, and skelly attacks. Knowing you wont die from the next hit.

To learning to avoid every hit. From all mobs.

Finding bears and trolls.
Making a bed nearby.
Dodging repeatedly until deatv. Trying different armors/ tiers of armor. To learn what abilities do how much damage. What can be parried or blocked with different items.

Just stopping by to share how the game can offer new experiences unexpectedly.

I think it would be extraordinary difficult and frustrating trying to learn the game solo, there's just SO much you'll probably never know or learn without other players there to help explain and give you tips

#

After a little over a month of playing I have 240 hours and I still get flabbergasted by things I never knew you could do

merry pebble
# granite grail I know I am requesting to know your reasoning behind it 😂

Ah, so that first would should have been why xD
Sorry about that.

Reasoning is that unless you are playing with another totally new player (Which actually happened for the person in that convo! :D) you will inevitably encounter spoilers from others you are playing with, robbing you from the joy you would have while exploring on your own. You only have one first playthrough, you should cherish it, i am willing to bet that wast majority of people here would give almost anything for being able to play again like it was a first time 🙂

# merry pebble Ah, so that first would should have been why xD Sorry about that. Reasoning is...

Huh. I guess that's a perspective I can sort of understand people coming from. I just know for myself I would have missed out on SO much quality of life stuff. Like building my first house I was chopping all the peices I didn't want with an axe until I was told that I can use the hammer and scroll wheel to destroy stuff I build 😂 Maybe I'm just not smart, but I would not have been able to enjoy the game or get very far without the players I had to help me or the million questions I have Googled. I just don't know how I would figure out how things work just by exploring, I would not think to press or use buttons that do new stuff.

I actually learned from a friend just last week you can block with almost all tools or weapons 😂 I died a lot bc I had no idea you could block without a shield. And in turn I showed my friend with hundreds of hours that you can axe straight down lol. If my lack of intuitiveness is quite shocking, bear in mind Valheim is the first and most advanced game I have ever played. I have never done anything other then steam games like REPO or Peak before now

With games like valheim I usually do everything blind for a dozen or so hours, and eventually start looking up things on the wiki or guides.

marble sable

same with what I did

grave crow
#

ive only looked at the wiki for ashlands items cause i wanted to see the new magic badly lol

#

thats also why i carry like 7 types of weapons

#

i think figuring out weaknesses is fun

strange cradle
#

I usually try to stay away from Wikis and what not. And it might be frustrating in the beginning to learn how to play the game solo, but the reward is also much greater when you figured it out all on your own.

storm sinew
#

Once you die like many times on a same mob, i think its not bad on looking on the wiki for their attacks and weaknesses
Like me for example, dying to a gjall like 5 times and im like "oh well time to look at valheim wiki"

grave crow
#

i dont think its bad at all to use the wiki, play smarter not harder esp if u dont have the time

strange cradle
#

That was the only time I consulted the forum... I was dying like mad in the Mistlands... the takeaway was to roll when ticks start attaching themselves to you. That was the only hint I needed.

#

And yes, tips can be helpful. I don't want full walkthroughs though.

storm sinew
#

Yeah learning is fun 🙂

grave crow
#

yeah depends on the game for me as well, i normally enjoy blind experiences and find them the most satisfying

#

some games though i tend to think need a walkthrough esp old ass titles from the 90s 80s

I distinctly remember seeing a buddy playing Doom for the first time and the horror I felt watching him. I was disgusted!

The first Deus Ex. That was a milestone.

Getting 1 sealbreaker fragment is common in infested mines, so getting like 2-3 in a single mine is rare?

Marathon came out originally on the Mac. Then Bungie jumped ship and sold out to Microsoft. Biggest blunder by Apple ever. But not their only one when it comes to gaming.

I forgot one game that also ran better on Macs at the time than on PCs: Dark Forces. Like, the OG Dark Forces.

Macs had the fantastic resolution of 640x400 pixels, whereas PCs were limited to 320x200.

personally i prefer VMs, even before Silicon i preffered VMs most of the time

rebooting sucks

so you can macOS + Linux dual boot, but not macOS + windows... ya, they really hate gamers

Hard to stop fliers. You even have to deal with them in the Meadows, even after you beat the Queen, nearly every night.

Unless you always sleep, of course. 😄

Am I gonna lose game data if I play during the Steam Downtime? I've not seen this before.

#

I'm usualy at work. 🤣

fossil delta
#

No. It will save to your system until cloud is available again. Just give it time to sync when you do stop playing.

solemn crown
#

Right.

#

Thanks!

#

syncing save files... yikes

#

so if i play offline on two different machines, will i get a conflict?

fossil delta
#

No idea. I always have internet access when I play.

#

Even when I am travelling and play on my laptop instead.

wanton hearth
#

i play on single machine, but theoretically that could happen

#

i did some cloud syncing programming, yikes, it was a mess

fossil delta
#

I have not had problems switching back and forth, but like I said, I always have internet when I am playing.

wanton hearth
#

its a good practice to always have the internet on when it comes to syncing

fossil delta
#

Yep. I found that to be true syncing between my in house computers. So its a habit I adopted about two decades ago.

wanton hearth
#

i started using cloud services in like 2011

#

first versions were quite bad, it got better in time, but i still "think" like they have these problems

fossil delta
#

I'm not sure when I started syncing files between computers in my house. All I can say for sure is that it was some time after 2005.

#

As for syncing the Steam cloud, I didn't start using that until some time after I started playing Valheim. So less than 5 years.

wanton hearth
#

i did some coding for database syncing, we got major problem when Apple's native "All in All out" relationships didn't sync. So we ditched it and implemented our own syncing service, instead of Apple's

solemn crown
#

Bloody hell. I'm gonna have to tear this whole thing down, and rebuild it about two levels higher.

tfw you still need tons of iron and stuff

frozen fable
#

you need Iron throughout the whole game once you reach swamp, all the way to and including in Ashlands

#

it's always useful and it's never wrong to stop what you're doing to mine iron

fossil delta
#

Yep. Its hard to have too much iron, really easy to not have enough. At least I like gathering iron in the Mistlands.

Deep north out yet

fossil delta

Obviously not. No word about its release either.

You can always just look in the #news channel to see whats going on.

honestly id ratrher wait longer for a massive 1.0 update then like

#

get just a new biome

fossil delta
#

Thats pretty much what they are doing. It is the final biome, and they may add some minor stuff, such as more creatures to earlier biomes, but its the end of the game. After we will get fixes and the like, but no more biomes or major content.

Nah, any animal if raised from young age can be domesticated

I see a LOT of racoons and possums and squirrels.

oblique zinc

There are certain instincts but those can be overridden

I doubt that we'd be able to domesticate a bear at any point in the future.

oblique zinc

Squirrels are nuts lol

# oblique zinc Squirrels are nuts lol

I would think they would chew on everything, so would need to be caged the vast majority of the time. Then again, I had the same issue when I owned parrots.

Are we gonna ignore that one video with a bear with rabies?

It's just a virus

fossil delta

All that aside, I would not be unhappy if they made bears tamable.

burnt glen
# fossil delta IDK, they seem pretty calm and gentle. Until their not.

I would imagine that nobody would try to because it just wouldn't be worthwile. They breed very slowly (domestication requires selective breeding over generations), they ride solo a lot as opposed to something like wolves which were domesticated to dogs, and can be extremely dangerous.

fossil delta

But the ones we will likely run into in The North.

Whats the dev command to remove the mist in a specific area?

cosmic summit
#

whats the taming time with two people using animal whispers potions?

fossil delta
#

Same as it is for one person using them, 15 minutes.

#

So two potions/meads.

cosmic summit
#

it stacks. unless they patched it

oblique zinc
#

I think it stacks

steel mica
#

1 person halves it to 15m

fossil delta
#

First I heard of that.

steel mica
#

so 15/4 that 3m

#

wait no

fossil delta
#

I'll have my wife hang out with me the next time I am taming, and find out.

steel mica
#

7.5

#

minute

#

30/4 = 7.5

fossil delta
#

So does it stack 3 ways?

oblique zinc
#

400% speed said blobycake

#

Does it stack 10 times ? I don't have that many friends to verify .. or wives for that matter

steel mica
#

But if divided thats 3.75minute

oblique zinc
#

So at 10 ppl it should be like seconds

Is the 1.0 release gonna change anything about the early game play, I'm 6 hours in i restarted the game once after 6 hours and I'm now in black forest should I continue or should I wait?

#

Is there any way Updates prior that changed something that could affect the older areas instead of only affecting the newest ones

gray sand
#

Already answered both of these...

frozen fable
#

you can play and get familiar with the game again before 1.0 launches, no telling when 1.0 will happen, could be next week, could be end of year, so you might as well just play and get familiar with the game again. The game is very replayable

feral mantle
#

Will Deep North progression follow after Ashlands or equal to? I would figure that since their location is specific to an opposing cardinal direction, that it would allow the player to choose which they would like to do first, and then tackle the other one after, each biome providing unique rewards.

Wiping out villages gives the most needles from their chests. When they have chests. Otherwise just keep running the plains as Omni suggested.

The new ghost raid is very cool. I was tabbed out talking to a friend when the ambience track changed to the crypt one which caused me to tab in out of confusion. Then my base was enveloped in fog like Silent Hill.

The highest vanilla occurring mountain in valheim is 490+ units high, altitude based snow(snow that falls on buildings independent of biome) starts at 90 units, sea level is at 30 leaving a 60 unit vertical delta for maps, that's extremely limiting in terms of world building since it can't be changed even with mods. Is there any incoming change (since 1.0 will have dynamic snow) that addresses this limitation?

#

Was is said on some podcast or post? Or is it just speculation

near furnace

🤔

#

I also want to know where you got that information from

?

mossy gazelle

"I don't want so why would you?"

near furnace
#

for the benefit of doubt here.
it's a language barrier @mossy gazelle

#

he asked about snow, and you answered like you knew the answer

mossy gazelle
#

I don't mind it to be customizable only with mods but having it be hard-coded and being purely aesthetic I want to be able to change ir

Obviously they need to expand the skybox then add a blackmetal helicopter that drops egg bombs

Wait hold on

the dragon egg ones would be like mini nukes

The way people mock simple things and can't take anything with a little seriousness looks so sad

near furnace
#

I could alaways ask my programmer who made the entire system.
but then the answer would force us not to be able to change it if we aren't happy with it

#

hence I can't give the answer

#

but take all that "mov" said as a blant lie

#

since afaik, we haven't said anything about deep north features and actual numbers and such 😄

gray sand
#

Some things should just be the way they are.
Having everything be completely customizable leads to a game being completely unrecognizable.

mossy gazelle
#

Yes, unless I have proof I won't trust anything without sources, don't worry

near furnace
#

yeah

#

people like to lie and troll for some wierd reason

#

a mod to change a hard number can't be to hard to do tho

mossy gazelle
near furnace
#

don't think that changed 🤔

mossy gazelle

I just thought that since you guys are messing with snow maybe there's a chance

not afaik
