lowkey idek where to go from here
ima check out mountains, i made frost res meads before hand
When you return the trophy to the stones you could check the text in next boss stone after Bonemass, which might give you a hint where to go next.
||Ask set|| all the way.
Black forge.
Correct.
Set bonuses are nice and paired with ||Ashen cape|| the armor rate is also good enough.
Welcome back Rohan 😂
is the vile just a bear reskin lol
yes, it even eats blueberries too
i forget, what does the mysterious axe head make again?
You need also curious axe head to craft ||Early Axes||.
thought it was sum like that
mh shouldn'tsetworldmodifier Resources default put it back to normal
I’ve introduced a friend to valheim and they’re having an absolute blast
He’s enjoying the intricacies of the building system and can’t wait to unlock masonry
I mean endgame you have the trolstav and can summon him literally anywhere and whenever
You mean like having a hireable dwarven farmer
you used magic to create the troll
It’d be nice if the special of the summon staves was directing the summoned entity
Including targeting trees and rocks
i am restrained by my mortality
good morning chat
should i plant enough carrots to freely make plenty of carrot soup
it's my best staminer yet but i'm about to hit swamp
They have uses in other foods later on, so having some stockpiled isn't bad.
thanks a bunch munch 🙂
carrot soup feels expensive gotta plant more seeds
18 feels like it should be enough carrots but isnt 💔
I have a small enclosed space of them in my base
But it's small
I think I only use it for deer stew
i should harvest 100 at a time wtf
I would say taht a field with around 50 of them is a good size 😄
are they less healthy if planted too close together
They won’t grow at all if too close together
If they say they need more space then they will die sadly
If they say they are healthy, then they will grow normally 🙂
that's about what i meant dam that sugs
I don't think that has happened to me
From my experience they just start to grow when I harvest other ones
let's see 18x3 = 54
Depends how much you are in the area where they grow i believe, since they need some time to actually wither and despawn
Makes more sense
My field is tiny
if i replant every single one of my currently growing carrots i should end up with enough
you don't 😄
Noooooooo
i only saw season 1 it's ok
the last episode of season 1 is by far the best
I wanna watch it
of season 1
later seasons i hear were better
But the only way I could is 🏴☠️
fiddle tee hee
And I dont want to do that
Is it really 🏴☠️ if we don't own the stuff we pay for?
True
maybe the real pirates were the east india trading company
blackbeard be hecked
Exactly
but yeah valheim is a great game you never need to pirate
I don't pirate games
castlevania dracula x my beloved
Minecraft legacy edition
If I were to pirate games it would be from big company's like EA or rockstar
Not smaller companies or indie games
i dont even play big games
I don't rlly either
anyone here like to build? i need some more creative people to play with
https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 might find some people here
I was more talking about big subscription companies like Amazon or netflix
if i have T.W.I.G. in the middle of a carrot field should i worry about either me or him trampling the crops
Is trampling crops even a feature?
enemies can trample crops but animals won't eat them
I just enclosed the field with them wooden stake walls
not viking
same with potatos
I think there are mods for it tho if ya intrested
i'm not sure but i seriously doubt it
I think the Devs would have added them by now if there were
I don't rlly trust the AI
If I had to pick ai I would be claude
Tho my dad is currently in the process of making his own
if i had to pick ai it would be kasane teto
That's fair
I'm not rlly in servers for music/shows I like
Only rlly games
I use the ai summary for simpler questions that don't mean anything much to me
I don't think a horse with 8 legs is a horse ngl
Do you not know of Sleipnir?
Its an 8 legged horse born to Loki after he helped win a bet gods made with a giant building walls of Asgard. He later became Odins horse and is the fastest one ever to live. 🙂
Yep 😄
I might need to read some mythology
Seems interesting
I don't think the vikings had any of those
Like gunheim
Just google sleipnir for this one 😄 one of the first results should sufice
This is not Scandinavia this is the 10th realm
i get mostly construction vehicle named sleipnir 👷
Ah, the giant crane, right XD
they were very specialized
Not in engines tho
Guys, is there a mod that allows you to build without using workbenches, forges, etc? I know about the debug mod, but we're playing on a server with friends and we're tired of it. We don't want to use the console
Riding bears would be cool tho
Sleipnir horse will probably give the correct results 😄
just turn on hammer mode
https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599 you could ask here
I would suggest #mods-discussion 😄
I would be very happy to ride bears
I forgot about that one ngl
In the black forest
You can 🙂 somewhat at least, not control them tho
My friend did that
It was very funny
The bear just started spinning in circles
I make my friends do it
Can you stand on carts while someone else drags it?
hi out of loop. north update when?
When it is ready 😄 we dont have any closer info
Battle cart time
I get my friend with bow to shoot stuff while I drive
Cart jousting with battleaxes
I would pick atgeirs 😄
Cart jousting tournament
I can test the mechanics of it
play valheim with me
Someone in #1024264966712340510 might want to 😄
ok
is that a deep north leak behind moder?
thought chat might want to know
now that my base has a stone wall and a trench
movements of the forest do almost nothing 😄
not that afraid of trolls raids anymore
they gone get stuck in the pit and point blanked with fire arrows
Sounds a little boring to me 👀
If you're going to break the enemy pathing, just turn raids off imo
Then you have no need for a big ugly trench 😅
only protected the one base like that
still interested in seeing what happens w my other houses
Just combat as usual really
Trenches are funny
I think it can be ideal to dig a trench around ur base have all the enemies come to the gate for mowing them down
Like i thought that’s what ur supposed to do
Since there’s stakes u can put in the ditches/water if it’s nearby
that's a trench i can support
i do that sort of with spikes lol, they all try to funnel in and shove each other into their daeth and i just sit there repairing lol
Just a big waste of time to me, digging out a trench to ultimately do the same thing you would without a trench.
same. my spikes are maintly for comedic value
Yeah, spikes work far better when the enemy pathing isn't broken as well, they'll walk right at them repeatedly during combat.
yeah lol, i have one spot that i leave juuuuuuuuust enough for me to slowly walk through lol
just because it can be spoopy early black forest on hard if im still meadows, i make a couple outside my door in case rngeezus bamboozles me with an insta raid
I also make a perimeter for tames, my first outer ring is for 2 star wolves, I have a pack of 15 or so roaming the outside of my base in a fenced in perimeter.
lol. but what if someone were to call that effectively a moat?
Seeker and fuling night spawns get obliterated
It's definitely not, my raids still function as intended.
If it's not a strong enough raid, they won't even get by my first line of defenses, which is actually an even further ring of watchtowers, with 3 ballistas per tower.
Plenty of base defense options if you don't just dig a trench or indestructible wall.
in my experience moats have saved my butt more than not
They also double serve as style at least the way I construct most of my bases
Isn’t Valheim a fantastic game for allowing such diverse gameplay options?
I've never said they'll hinder you, they're just cheese and a bit overboard for a handful of enemies.
Indeed my good sir/ma’am
Why won't you just turn them off though? Seems like a lot of effort when you could just tick a world modifier.
m'theydy
Because raids don't work with terrain walls/moats.
They stand around aimless.
Why won't you just turn them off though? Seems like a lot of effort when you could just tick a world modifier.
Does not compute.
maybe its just the pleasure of having built a defense that prevents atack and then looking at all the enemies who cant get in like yup thats a dangum good moat
that's like asking "why not turn on moving metal through portals"
I think that’s more of a testament to how good moats are tho
Like the ultimate base proof which is what they were irl
To me the terrain wall/moat/trench is like using cheats. But-- I'm also biased and have written pathing mechanics for NPCs and have my own encounters with broken pathing.
it's a difference in combat comfort. some go "hey a fight!" and rip their shirt off, others go "things that killed me 10 times already" and grab their bow
takes off troll hood, dons bronze helmet
nothing would survive without the trench present anyways
including me 😄
I removed your gibber status due to almost inappropriate joke few days earlier. 
-# ||Kidding.
||
my trenchless forever home has 2 balistas in front and 2 in back, all set to dreyswarfs entirely to kill those rock throwing idiots and nothing else
But took you a while. 
what happens if you aim a ballista at my favorite rock throwing idiot TWIG
idk i love him for some reason
hm idk if they can shoot twigs…
it would have to be set to any/all targets
Makes me feel less lonely in a solo world
and maybe it would shoot them? idk i dont use twig i like fighting
i like fighting that's why i practice on the dummy it's safer
thats what rocky is for!
I haven’t found him yet at all 😩
I need him in my base for real
twig is good for when you're bored and shouldnt make bad decisions
i want to kill a bear tonight!
versus
i already have this silly goose next to my carrot field he's easier to find and
i’m can support this if you’re also practicing parrying and such so one day you can go out in the world and visit the swamp
but dont just beat the poor scarecrow
yacko began criticizing my lack of progression
😱
I wonder if there’slore behind respawning
a little at least, there’s one slightly dark runestone lemme find it
I see what happened to all the other unfortunate warriors in this game and they seem to never get a second chance 😔
theres this one:
You who pass, remember me. I am a man whose home was once in the mountains of Midgard, carried here when I thought to earn my rest, to find a life after life in Valheim. There were seven of us before the Greydwarfs came. Now Odin will not hear me and the seas refuse me. Soon this stone will be all that remains
and this one:
At this place I killed seven of the draugr and ended their long years of fighting and misery. Now who will end mine?
trapped trapped vikings, fighting and respawn with no escape.
“not even the sea will take me”
and what do they mean soon it will be just the stone that remains??
they dont respawn?
they become something else?
it seems the other warriors just want OUT of this place
I think ur right
I forgot that stone
I guess they just give up and fade away completely
Fiddle a bit with the shift function of a hoe 🙂 it levels ground to the point you are looking at
Go from top of the hill you want to smooth and go down bit by bit
Do you recommend the combat modifier on very hard for two novice players? Or is it too difficult?
I don't recommend. Very hard is currently overtuned.
who deleted my gun emoji
🔫
valheim should get binoculars or smth
having to squint to see long distances
For new players it would be best to go with all the normal settings 🙂 after you know the game more you can decide if you want to tune anything
it's been deleted for more than 8 years
Might need to use the hoe and pick axe
have a backup of your world after you defeat the elder in case your house gets destroyed by trolls and you decide this isnt what you want in the future
We want it to be difficult, but not too unfair
no portals 👍
Then try if the normal difficulty is difficult enough for you, if it is not, then mess with the modifiers 🙂
Is this your first playthrough?
if normal is too easy i would bump it up to hard ngl
i have a friend who swears by freeling travelling metal or no portals at all
Guys, just let them try it, then they can decide if they need to modify it 😄
I played when it came out and I managed to defeat the Elder, then I stopped playing
i just place forges at each major spot im gonna be staying at for a while
like the swamp base
phone boutta die see yall on the flipside 🤙
see ya queenie
the problem is it's so overtuned it eliminates a lot of game elements and combat mechanics a new player should at least experience
Its not like an fps or pvp there are very simple mechanics everything else is being creative or learning how to survive
Could you elaborate? Im assuming youd have to wait until higher tiers to parry but is there more than that?
blocking and parrying on harder difficulties is a pain in the ass, basically
starred enemies have zero issues breaking both on the same tier, and that murders your dmg options
I see the residents of the Mistlands absolutely despise gardening.
these mobs are all just jealous that they cant create sth beatiful
thats why the try to smash ur stuff
TBH, I am considering trying to build a terrace garden on the outer rim of a Mistlands Mountain
I figure that's the only way I can build one they can't get to.
My garden does fine. Try picking a different spot and spread some spawn suppressing items around
That looks really exposed. I am surprised they leave it alone...
mostly parrying and staggering enemies. if their damage is very high you’re only dodge rolling or kiting. if their hp is very high you can’t stagger them with attacks, so the entirety of combat os either kiting with a bow, cheesing, or poke dodge poke dodge poke dodge
👀
combat with trolls used to be poke dodge for me
then i learned about eitgyr stagger \[T]/
and at that point you’re basically dead if you get hit so player health starts to not matter, now you’re just eating pure stamina food and running around on indestructible objects if more than 1 thing sees you
well trolls are trolls. there are greydwarfs and stuff too, but imagine if the only gameplay was fighting trolls
thats basically very hard
oncew you get upgraded atgeir, trolls stop mattering 😄
well sure. but if every greydwarf in the black forest was a troll lol. actually its more like if every greydwarf was a 1 star brute. the bf actually isnt so bad on very hard
one hit from any troll means dong
but another good example is on hard you can JUST parry a bear with a wood shield. very hard you gotta just dodge dodge dodge. i personally highly enjoy choosing what to dodge and what to parry. interesting complex combat > i cant ever get hit me hide on rock
ashlands. they’ll find you
ashtralia
I always do smelters/furnaces in either 3's or 5's.
3/6/9 if I want to do it by stacks of ore.
5/10/15 if I want to do it by stacks of coal.
i like that actually lol, they’re both in the south, everything there wants to kill you, its way too hot, etc
i feel like id rather have bone serpents in the water than box jellyfish
Appreciate it
its not a horrible game if thats what you're looking for, personally i like more dynamic complex fights that sniping 1 thing at a time doesnt give me
also you might find that you change difficulties as you go, very hard meadows and black forest aren't unreasonable, but the game scales itself in later biomes and it just adds on top of the multipliers exponentially sort of
I would agree with everything u said there.
I actually find Black Forest weirdly hard on Vhard, moreso than like Swamp or Mountains, just because I don't have a lot of tools at my disposal at that stage
oh its definitely hard, like when the forest moves and every stone is actually a threat
but like, POSSIBLE still, with some butt clenching, you dont HAVE TO cheese everything
Brb speed running very hard
lol have fun!
I usually find it easier to just not kill Eikthyr on very hard until you got a decent weapon and troll or bear armour
well also id say speed running in general takes away from the game cuz how you gonna speed grow crops and fish and all the things that takes out of the game too?XD speed build a neat house you havent built before, speed make a little path to your rocky shrine,
probly ya to avoid the raids lol.
but idk i think the very hard raid is just hard enogh if you're prepared with top meadows gear u can do it
its just about the brute you can't parry and has no chill. stab dodge stab dodge stab dodge stab dodge vomit stab dodge
hashtag very hard
Flint Spear is king early game for dealing with raids and in general for black forest
can even kill wolves
yup
Also king for deer hunting.
Spears, my beloved.
most games i make 2 spears just to double tap a pair of deer
Retrieving the spear after throwing is just really annoying especially when you throw it down a Mountain
dont do that
I was totally kidding about the speed run part but I am now inspired
meh. imean if the game bores you go for it. i like the boring aspects of it too much to just cheese my way to victory
It does not, I am the same way
Do you know of any seed that allows me to spawn near the Black Forest?
I accidentally threw my silver sword down a mountain and couldn't find it. I ended up making a new one.
ouch
Protip: don't miss 😉
ugh. game is making me so sad with bad mountains. 2 mountains now iwth 1 vein each, one had a cave, one had a house, no other poi's
not even worth setting up my camping trip base
I'm going through the same thing, but I've already been to two Black Forest sites and found absolutely nothing made of copper or tin.
not even TIN?? ive never not seen tin on the coast
I didn't find anything strange, and it took me about 7 to 10 minutes of gameplay to get there. I spawned very far from the forest.
copper spawns can be unlucky but tin spawn en masse at the coast...
thats what im sayin, ive never seen a tin-less bf
unless the coast was just barely meadows lol, thats so unlucky
may as well buy a lottery ticket at that point to add to the bad luck
cuz i havent seen that happening in hundreds of hours
I'm playing with mods and all I'm finding are salt rocks on my back.
that's an... interesting mod? is that a mod to play as a golem?
I was searching for some seeds to help me get started, near the dark forest.
I don't even know, I was looking for a food mod.
What weapon do you primarily use and what difficulty do you play on?
1h or 2h?
1h
depends if you want to parry starred bugs
Brooch.
If you switch to 2h, Mantle.
my most difficult combat rn is goblin villages probably
the bear's brass knuckles
i parry pretty much anything i can
mantle essentially subtracts a star from parrying things
if i can parry the starred bugs id like to
No. 😛
Mantle essentially makes the 2h equivalent to 1h + shield.
(this was @ Yacko)
interesting
i guess i use atgir a little bit too
if too many fuglings are around me
but i aint parrying in that situation
Carapace Buckler is still unmatched for unknown lack-of-balance reasons.
However:
Carapce Shield parry = 162.
Krom with Mantle parry = 156.
Flametal Shield parry = 189.
Slayer with Mantle parry = 192.
imeannnn... close-ish
at least when i tried mantle against star charred it seemed to hurt my stagger like i subtracted a star
Yes. So swing and dodge until proc, then parry and nuke.
mmmm gotcha
Luckily you can build it pretty fast against multiple enemies with your wider swing arc.
whens the first 2h sword anyway?
isnt it krom?
i guess i could battleaxe
i like to snipe the mages in the villages and then frost arrow the berserkers
and atgir the hoardes of little dudes
just have a different weapon vs soldiers, but axe exterminates bugs very easily
it chops yggdrasil roots too right?
blackmetal battleaxe? yes
What's a mantle?
@covert flare
evasion mantle trinket
Yes, Krom.
So I would use Brooch until you can build it then switch.
I would put forth that Brimstone is objectively the worst trinket 🤷♂️
Forreal? What's good in ashlands and why is brimstone the worst?
Because it takes 100 to proc it, and it's solely hp + stam.
Like what weapon do you primarily use?
Wolf's sight is my second choice. Arrows good brrrrrr
Sword/shield or berzerker axes
Shackle.
Stamina bumps + 10% damage for an entire minute.
I want to love Wolf, but I wish they would drop the skill bumps and swap them for like +50 stamina.
So it would match Shackle's stam + Slash damage bump, but just be the Pierce version.
Bracelets same thing. Drop the 20 Club Skill and drop the proc threshold to 70-75.
Doesn't the skill bump cause you to use less stam?
Unless you already have high skill, yes.
Im at 65 bow
Now, if you could overcap skills, then I have a completely different perspective.
But you cannot, so I don't.
For you though, switch to Shackle and you'll love the difference.
do any of the double handed weapons have decent blocking
Blocking sheet. Block Armor tab.
You can compare everything and decide what you consider to be "decent." 💛
why is this game semsky
which two handed weapon class has the highest block armor
is it greatswords? it's probably not hammers
anyone know other games like valheim?
it looks like... iron sledge has the same block armor as battleaxe?
and stagbreaker is just uniquely terrible
At iron they are equal, yes.
After that, BA has the same block as the next biome's sword.
wow
and the next biomes sword seems to have the same block armor and parry value as that biome's 2 handed hammer?
admittedly the names are a little confusing
Yup. Which is why I don't like how slow the BA is.
It has the best block/parry in the 2h family, but enemies recover before you can hit them.
Doesn't make sense to me.
does this game have any thor style one handed hammer weapons
Frostner 🤢 is the closest.

gonna craft frostner to own the libs (so much sarcasm)
😭
maybe we get something new in deep north? 🤔 Fröstner 😄
is copper knife famous
I would love Frostner if it were two-handed.
But alas...
is that why "
" exists
I tried battle axe, but it is waaaaaaaaaay too slow for me.
knifes and one-hand-swords ftw.
i’m glad everyone hates it, it will never get nerfed 😌
harvesting with scythe is so satisfying
is stagbreaker post-nerf
was it once better
lol not that i know of. its just weak because its too easy to use imo
something that hits everything all around you and knocks them back better have downsides, its is sub-par damage
its supposed to be a very niche weapon, like if you’re surrounded by a group of weak enemies
(not for fighting eikthyr 🤭 not for breaking that deer)
(i had stagbreaker before eikthyr was defeated)
correct, it does not break stags. its made of stags and breaks furniture around you when you use it to cheese things in dungeons
i've been strongly recommended iron sledge
i get the impression it's just okay and not too otherwise noteworthy
no one's ever discussed it with me at length
except the friend that recommended it
thats my queen slaying weapon
imean it is a very easy safe weapon some people love to cheese with
i wouldnt call it “bad” it does what it does, very good defensive or cheesy weapon
i think this person loves cheesing
i asked his pronouns he told me "chimera"
so
chi's a cheese enjoyer
they're the one that recommended trenches
i just got back to the game after 3 years and i started the world yesterday and i already have beaten the moder 😄
that tracks.
person who enjoys cheese to avoid combat also enjoys trenches that prevent combat
admittedly sometimes my favorite gaming techniques are assortments of exotic cheeses
like irl eating cheese?
my favorite way of fighting trolls has become atgir stunlock
nvm
precisely
no shame in appreciating expensive cheese
i wouldnt call that cheese tho, you at least have to walk up to the troll and give it a chance
it's much cheesier than the dodge +
i'd been doing
easier isn't cheesier if it's still an intended way of fighting them
killing the elder with just arrows hiding behind a pillar is easy, but no cheesy, standing on top of a tomb to kill an abomination where it can't hit you in anyway, is cheesy
in my opinion
dragging an abomination through a fire pit is easy but innovative
right, the elder at least had a pewpewepwpew attack you have to duck behind the pillar
in case it pleases any of you to know my inner monologue is getting increasingly nasally as i get more irl congested ☺️ 🤧
i also support this lol
Same
I try to avoid the cheese as much as I can tho
-Mouse after being trapped for the 6th time
man i just wanted to sail home
had to go around this massive mistlands.... and on the other wise is ashlands
im just tryina find yaggy 😭
...lands is hostile 😄
🫂
i think i see a black forest tree
oh now it's raining
lmao
well the welcoming committee was large but we landed and portaled home..... WHEW
🫡
i just started a new project and after laying the foundation and making the layout i already know this will take ages lmao
haven't even beaten the game yet
120 hours in, still only in plains
I saw the new buildings in the crafting section and i realized i didn't have enough space for it lol, so I figured i needed a new base
the neverending struggle 😄
beating the game less important than playing the game
Why is there like 6 greydwarfs chasing me in the black forest
why do they come in packs
separation anxiety
hello
hello Isaacool 👋
hi
how is everyone
yeah... i have seen much worse, with two healers and a troll to top things off
great, how about you?
I am good thank you
should i make frostner just to do smoldering tomb with? 😎
Sure why not. If you dont like it hang it on the wall for decoration
No need if you are already in mountains with progression 😄
it does look pretty nice
Make 20 of them and clip them into blocks along the edge of the floor to make a cold steamy effect
What is your guy’s most unique tip that no one else knows, probably? GO.
dude moder power while on a raft is uhhhh.... not something id ever think i'd have to do
Absolutely love this game, started playing it this year and have logged over 500 hours. Thanks everybody for making this game the awesome experience it is
Use shield generators at surtling spawners to stop yourself from getting wet when collecting coal. Place a chain of portals between any number of surtling spawners to quickly hop between them, and finally one portal that takes you back home.
This is actually a really fun question. Hmm maybe my tip would be always keep longship materials in a chest in a convenient place, so if you ever need to boat-and-go quickly, you can just loot all and be on your way.
this is hard to answer because I like sharing everything I find 
so your best tip is to share your findings 😉
Oh, niceeee.
Boat n’ Go. Lololol.
Really good, though. Box boats!
@tawny blaze I don't take my Cultivator with me for one 😬
there are a few people who know this but your mass is doubled while pulling a battering ram
So pulling siege equipment gives you a fat mass? 😏
Finally had the chance to play some of the early game bear to arms update
Early Axes are so much better than anything else you can get for like the first 3 biomes it’s not even funny
I thought they were broken then I saw how easy it is to upgrade them and I’m even more flabbergasted, plus the repairability of them
i’ve got like a million no map no portal tips it’s hard to choose, but some translate to normal game mode. fresh in my mind is you can bring surtling cores(or find them there), 6 copper, 2 bronze, and 2 iron anywhere and have a lvl 3 forge, stonecutter, and smelters to craft armor and weapons there so you dont have to bring as much ore home
Ahhhh, good!
If you need something and you need the ore to craft it, just bring the necessities to craft it with you!
Put a bunch of small durable buildables close together (I like the personal player chests) then hit it with lightning axes when enemies are nearby to effectively create a Tesla tower to zap enemies approaching your base
I need help with a chimney for a hearth, its either looks funny or doesnt filter the smoke well enough
YOOOO.
That’s the best one yet.
And I LOVE all of them.
Nvm I have done it
Probably that you should never build anything too big out of stone too early on, Im making that mistake and its sucks ass hauling all this stone back to the house, its coming along nicely though
It isnt as good as the other but yk
Sound advice, me thinks
A general tip, I like it.
Also I dont know if its particularly unique but killing serpents is sooo easy and so very helpful (especially if you cant parry, getting that shield is helpful) and the meat is also insanely good for how easy it is to get
Just harpoon, drag, gank and flatline the thing
yup! for example i just went to the mountains, brought with me 1 chain and 45 ancient bark for wolf chest and lvl 2 crystal axe
If you tame lox keep them very separate from your main base they can destroy everything in short order lol.
Nice, bro. But it is high risk high reward, considering you could possibly die while on the expedition, lol.
Lololol.
Speaking from experience.
Question about the dyrnwyn, I know only one spawns, but I've also heard you can change world modifier for item drop rates to get multiple.... Can I just turn this drop rate up claim the fragments then turn it back to normal, is that possible and easy to do? Also we are a group of 4 so even with the world modifier will it drop enough?
I have a question. I want to build a port, but my house is about 10 blocks from the sea. It's quite flat, but I don't know if, when I dig and make the hole, the water will behave like the sea because I've created space where there used to be land. I don't know if I'm explaining myself well.
better to have a new axe and frost resist for a long mountain camping trip so i dont have to bring stacks and stacks of frost resist potions
you can only get three dyrnwyns this way but you don't all need one
Tell that to my friend 😂. Damn ok that's a shame
there are so many good melee options in ashlands other than dyrnwyn
digging below sea level always has water if its connected to ocean water or not, if thats what you’re asking?
water wont behave any differently where your base is if you do something to terrain nearby
given what can be seen of my base, how many stacks of corewood do i probably need for reinforced spikes *around its entire perimeter?
I meant that if I mine from the ground until the character swims, because I don't know if there's another way to mine further down, would it be enough for a ship to emerge or would it be too shallow, which is what I imagine?
ohhh, yes if you can mine down until it makes you swim a boat can sail there
Oh thank you, I thought it wouldn't be deep enough
Swamp will unlock a table to prepare the fish for cooking
i've run SERIOUSLY onto ground during a big storm and had to dig my boat out so it would float again XD
ive always wanted like "roasted fish" you can throw on the spit, about on par as deer meat. seems silly you can't just cook a whole fish
I would love to see more fish content. I actually really like fishing in this game but other than novelty and esthetic there is no reason to catch 80% of the fish
yeah, bog witch potions was something with trollfish at least, but its not like u can just find it on rocks
True, and they are very simple (to me) to get enough of to last you the entire game, making you never need to fish again
and there's ONE fish food recipe, such a tease, only one??
imean fish taco for chopped fish, but thats any fish, nothign special for being able to reel in the tough fish
for silver do i have to dig or sm? I have the wishbone and its not picking anything up
Assuming youre in the snow biome you will have to dig for it once the wishbone starts pinging.
Have to be on a tall enough mountain to begin with.
Silve only spawn above the obsidian line. No obsidian, no silver.
What's with the abomination AI? I agro it so it comes and stands over me, but then it turns around and runs off in the other direction. This happens often and it's really annoying.
I’d say like 3 or 4
Not counting serpents as fish
But if you mean requiring specific fish then I guess one yeah
Check out my build on my YT channel.. nice chimney that keeps smoke going up and out!
ngl if i had a 4 pod id just tell one guy to spawn his own after we all did it
or maybe id spawn one myself and bring it to them
theres no difference between changing the resource rate and spawning another imo
Why not just venture into other worlds to source the materials?
It's already far easier to achieve.
The love forsaken thing is april fools right not another update before deep north?
Yeah
Looks like they fooled ya

THIS lol it's so hard to keep them entertained 😭 😂
It's a real PITA when I want to gather root. I have the chase the stupid thing half way across a swamp.
Go to a swamp with a surtling spawner and just run in tight circles around it, the fire kills them pretty quick and they don't run away from it if you stay very close
Sure is cool how I used only maces all the way until mistlands but now my club skill is only 17
Guess if you dont use it ya lose it 🤷
I use maces for swamp at the very start and never again xD Minus porcupine I like to use that sometimes for fun it's so pretty
porcupine hurt my eyes
I have the stupidest problem 💀 I logged off right after I died bc I had to go the other day, but I can't remember where I died or what continent I was even on 😭
Don't you have a death marker ☠️ on the map?
yes but I have several and I don't know what day it is. Is there a way to check what day your're on before is comes up at sunrise?
Not that I know of
never mind I found it 😭😂
If i die inside a burial chamber will my stuff be inside it or outside
i cant find my gravestone
Inside
Gotta be the right crypt too.
can chickens fly out of pens?
No but they can run into a fire because they're stupid.
gotcha xD thanks
I remember lox and asksvin climbing on top of each other to potentially cross walls. Maybe chickens can do it too
But probably not
I have died five times to 2 gyalls.....most creatures in this game I'm fine with, I can handle them, I'm in their land, not a problem. But I have never hated a creature with such passion as I do these gyalls >_<
dodge rolling helps alot
are ticks lil gjall seems like they birth out of there
no
so they hitched a ride? 🤔
like overlords in sc2
is there a lore reason
or are they just drinking the gjall blood and then getting more interested in your squishy Viking blood
no
as a scandinavian. we hate ticks
hence we added those anoying suckers to the game
The gjall is purly made up
Where you from?
I love this game, i just got into plains and need flax so i went to village and the first thing i meet is 2 star sword fuling and i get my 200hp and full iron armor obliterated in 1 shot :> and get staggered even when parrying 💀
What are you doing in plains in iron armour? 👀
didnt want to get silver and i am close to getting the padded armor
I think you will want to go get silver ngl
i guess i will just raid a village and get flax to craft padded armor now but i need to get my loot back
momma didnt raise a bi....
if i wont be able to get it back then i will dm them xD
2 deathsquitos at the spawn of the base, like wtf
You might want to get a backup set
2 arrows and they are gone 😄
troll armor in plains now 😄
😄
Best set in the game
Root armor harnesk and a fire potion is what I used in the plains. You dont get hurt as much
got everything back in troll armor 😄
You're a lot braver than I am
i just like to spice some things up :>
silver armor is too heavy for me to use in the plains lol
plus it takes so much silver that I’d rather use for weapons and upgrades
it looks cool tho so sometimes I make it
i only got silver shield, bow and frostner XD
1600hrs and i never knew spears levelled up faster than other weapons. still in Black Forest and my spear skill is pushing 50
spears by 2.25 and rest 1.5?
I would have made froster but I’m literally one bar off and I’m not going back to mine that shit anytime soon 😂
im on 3x loot so idc xD
yeah it seems that way, wiki says that too but honestly the only xp thing ive ever looked at is the extra 50% from rested bonus
valid I’m on vanilla settings
honestly the only setting i change is turning raids off. i like building and i dont like ruining the visuals with ugly walls or moats
most times I skip iron armor as well and just go light until padded
I just got the recipe for vile armor and it seems very niche/too similar to bear armor
its good if you're using bows or spears, otherwise the lower armour rating just aint worth it
when I saw it I was like yeah this is tailored for the porcupine
u can avoid raids by getting portaled far from your home every 48 minutes
im not bothered to do that when i can just turn them off haha
Makes sense
It seems best with clubs though
vilebone armour + wolf sight trinket is op for pierce dmg
with that +20
on triple loot i got 200 black metal from small village xD
3x loot is insane if ur grinding for troll armour, i had a 2 star on triple loot and could make a full set xD
i want my lovely black metal sword 😄
Some trophies just don’t wanna drop until 2 biomes later
i got about 600 bear skin xD
guys when will the winter update come???
real...bear SAYS 10% but its absolutely lying
maybe in like 6 months
hopefully in the summer
okay
no idea yet, based pfp tho
full set to lvl3 you mean xD
I got my first bear trophy 3 bears in
Then never got one again
got it in first try xD
oh yes, went from 0 armour to 33 in one troll
i dont really like porcupine, i like blackmetal sword more
in my first world since Call to Arms it only took me like 5 or so bears to get it, in my current one i killed well over 40 before it dropped
that’s really lucky lol I wish
honestly swords > clubs in general
Same here but I’m also a sword user
is this your first time playing the game?
frostner the best but blackmetal sword is a lot better for later
No trinkets just came out this year lol
frostner is good but i hate it against stone golems, plus the knockback on clubs can get annoying if you're trying to finish off enemies
It’s my first full playthrough in like 3 years though
damage bonuses stack multiplicatively
is a maxed frostner good?
get it to level 3 max cus lvl 4 is scam, 45 silver
I have like 2k hours probably I don’t count
ah i was just wondering whether its your first playthrough since the update or first ever
alr got it on 4
https://discordapp.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202267437647527977/1489557634817458277 such a sick base location
surely the second i make one here i die though
gotcha, yeah it’s my first full playthrough since before mistlands, I did a mistlands playthrough after but didn’t complete ashlands
ATP just wanna get the game done and then move on with my life until 1.0 maybe 😂
ashlands is hell, literally and especially morgens
any time i go to play a different game my brain just says "nah you should replay Valheim again"
same with Elden Ring actually
ashlands was much harder on release, the spawns were insane. feels kinda chill now if you're prepared
it will be my first time in mistlands and ashlands :>
i used to play when yagluth was last boss and i got 800 hours then
i do kinda want a boss overhaul, especially Yag. the poor guy only has 3 attacks
did the moder get nerfed cus i defeated it in like 7 minutes
It's gonna be my first time in Ashlands tomorrow O_o I have 99 armor, my maxed silver sword, frost and protection staff, and some good food prepared. I have been prepping for a while, I hopefully won't be too bad off 😂
i feel like they made her land on the ground more often, and also stay there longer too
maxed silver sword ur gonna be fine, what armour set are u running?
90% of hits were with frostner, 10% bow
So the same as Eik, Elder and Bonemass 😄
Lvl 2 Carapace chest and helmet, padded greaves, crystal heart
I can switch to carapace greaves but I feel like the 2 points aren't super worth it
honestly the Queen and Fader are gold standard for moveset variety, i know they're later in the game so they should be more complex but its much more enjoyable imo
i mean you may as well, it wont change your movement speed at all
if u do it first time get carapaced maxed out i played on my friends world and it was hell
I relate to that heavy 😭
Elden ring too is my other big solo game
We have the same brain lol
i had a mate try it and quit after Radahn. hasnt touched the game since. so disappointed in him (base game Radahn that is)
the first (and only) time I played it pre nerf I was logging in and out every other second to avoid dying
I'll work on getting them maxed as I go. I have new mistlands area to explore so hopefully the mines will give me more carapce
It was excruciating
better to be overprepared than underprepared. being careless is the no.1 killer in this game
playing with my friend we fought 2 star morgen xD
HA don't I know it 💀 I died like 12 times in a few hours
Anywho almost 6am gonna get some rest 😴
im not a big fan of the whole "every late game enemy resists all physical damage" philosophy
Lmaoo nooo that’s too early
only weak to spirit xD
Fr especially for those like me who don't care to go full mage
well morgens are weak to lightning too but the only way you have that before ashlands is Himminafl
I think Elden ring is the easiest of the fromsoft games, especially when sticking with it bc I also think it has the best visuals/story but it seems to have replaced dark souls in popularity for being brutal 😭
for now im not worried cus mistlands will be easy af
like i understand crashing out and quitting after dlc Radahn but he missed out on so much
i honestly never use magic, so its even worse for me haha
Nah I get it too, it’s definitely not easy and intentionally rage inducing
btw what does the vile give and what can i craft?
the only other Fromsoft game ive played is Sekiro, and that was fire. i plan on playing the DS trilogy eventually but yeah Elden Ring did feel too easy sometimes
fist weapon, armour set from its trophy/ribcage
i personally dont like the fist weapons because they have zero range, but the armour is pretty good
so just the better bear armor?
love sekiro, you should def give the trilogy a try if you have the time, ds2 is probably the black sheep of the bunch though
pretty much, except you get extra blunt and pierce dmg instead of slash and chop
In my opinion at least ds1 is a must try
my friend prefers the deflect combat system over dodge rolling, so i know hes gonna like Sekiro. we both play Khazan and that was an amazing game
really? most people ive asked suggest DS3
ds3 I’d say is just as good, definitely a more polished game, it builds off the world of ds1
id also love to play bloodbourne but i dont own a ps, and im gonna be in a nursing home before it gets a pc port or remaster
ds1 they rushed the end development so some end game areas feel a bit unfinished (enemy spam) but besides that it’s solid
i cooked my meat to coal :/
i love my coal trick its so good
I played once at a friends cause he has a PlayStation and I’ve been silently hoping for it to come out PC I got hooked in quickly 😭 may not happen tho
it looks so fun man, i just cant justify buying a console for one game
like i would emulate it but most emulators are sketch af
Why I haven’t gotten a switch yet bc only 1 or 2 games I would actually play
im curious as to what those games are, coz i havent seen a single switch game that would even remotely motivate me to get one
Metroid prime 4, some new 2d Mario game if they’ve come out with one and the new Zelda titles
i guess zelda yeah, ive never really been into metroid or mario tho
Zelda games rn are more open world though and I’m more of a traditional fan
Same w Metroid
I prefer the Metroidvania style
yeah real
open world in elden ring was cool but it lowkey felt a bit overwhelming at times
plus you would end up being super under or overleveled
Yeah I was always overleveled cause I tried to explore every crevice I could
That’s just how I play those games I gotta get everything 😂
my first playthrough i ended up fighting radagon at like lvl 300 and absolutely mopped the floor with him
just coz i was exploring literally everything i could
thats the thing too tho, coz if you brute force through something on the first playthrough then you dont really learn the boss moveset, and it makes ng+ harder for no reason
Yeah or you may be missing out on a weapon that may compliment better for what playstyle you’re going/want to go
I think I was like 150 which is around the normal range for end game
I spent big bucks on every item
i steamrolled him even tho i was using a holy weapon, i was just that overleveled
Prob at that level you got that health bar that goes off the screen so you just can’t die 😂
That’s crazy tho holy weapon mowing down the holy guy
I think I did the blood katana build that just destroyed everything
Radagon took me a couple tries but the sperm whale was a joke
i did a blood milady build once the dlc dropped, but i mainly stuck to cosplay builds coz they’re just so fun
i did crucible knight (first playthrough), bloodhound knight, cleanrot knight, Rellana etc
so much fun man
is it safe to make a base in plains?
What’s even crazier is I bought the dlc last year and still haven’t played
Me and my friends were gonna play w each other 😔
Yes
I think the best two biomes (and probably the main two intended) for building is ofc meadows, and plains
Mistlands at a third
Bc low mob spawn
im going to plains in my langskip with 18 stacks of metal xD
i hope no serpents will attack me
Wow you filled the whole damn boat 😂 👍
it is very good, progression feels a little weaker but it has some of the best bosses in the game
i got 20 more stacks of tin and copper in my old base xD
any biome is safe if you spawn proof the area lol
plains is definitely a top 3 tho
i personally prefer black forest over all else tho
i like plains and also very close to mistlands with queen
you’re moving all of it?
maybe later
I heard a couple are harder than malenia or any base game boss and it’s got me hyped to play it still
Ds2 had complaints of artificial difficulty but Elden ring has some of the best bosses I’ve played in games honestly
final boss definitely is the hardest in the game by far, some are very hard but still very fun
i could have taken moder power :/
(And I agree with many of those complaints)
i dont wanna drop names in case of spoilers but 2/3 of my fav bosses in ER are in the dlc
Yea this was me yesterday taking bonemass my dumb ass 😂
Fulings hurt tho and I was doing raids
🫡
i am going through the small river cus i missed the ocean xD
when I sail in valheim I feel like a drunk driver lmao
i could have went by ocean but why
I open up my phone cause damn this taking long and next moment I look up and I’m about to crash
i have no wind at all and have to go through small river "skull:
especially the drakaar. i swear driving a semi trailer would be easier
that’s brutal
lowkey i just skip the longship, yeah the karve has less hp and storage but its so much more manoeuvrable
Yk the RV game, the friendslop one?
I use it sometimes as a portal placer
Then longboats I use for full expeditions
rv there yet yeah
exactly like that
i dont often do full expos coz im usually just island hopping
and got stuck 💀
I just like to larp as a migrating norseman, come in like blitz and ransack as much as I can and get tf out 😎
Was frost resist always on moder buff or did they just put that there for fun
Well not larp but arp I guess
i have about 5km to sail and i am not even in half
But I take the longship for it cause I’m doing back to back to back raids
is there a way to get rid of the mist in black forest? its clipping right through my basement
i got to my base 😄
Try fires 🙂
so if i put torches downstairs it should be all good?
It could help 😄
halo bang
do you think we will have dvergers in deep north as well?
I only found it just now that the dvergers in Ashlands and Mistlands are different clans
Personally hoping there are no Dvergr.
personally hoping the devs don't look at chat for feedback and follow their talented hearts 💗
I wonder if mist dvergr and ash dvergr are hostile towards one another 🤔
whos done alot of fishing? i need some tips
currently working on catching all the different types of fish, its just a pain without that damn hat llol
Use a raft and slowly skim the shorelines, mark large patches of fish as they tend to spawn in the same place.
Don't cast further than 3m, and position your boat directly above the schools of fish.
Try to only move using the rudder of the boat, as walking can spook the fish and make them move around.
Utilize your best 3 stamina foods just as a precaution for when you snag larger fish.
which hat?
fishing hat
is it called "fishing hat"
you unlock the recipe once youve catch all the different types of fish
caught*
and yeah
I think they belong to the same Dvergr faction.
They’re different clans! Who can say how dvergr clan politics works? 
i been casting to 10m prolly my problem
just went through 10bait and only caught 2 fish lol
but will do, but on my longship 🙂
The raft is kinda necessary, no edges makes visibility far easier, and you can even remain casted out while using the rudder to reposition without wasting a bait.
Yeah but as how the faction system works.
oh really
besides the bronze pendant and bear hood are there any other items which make stamina regen faster
theres one armor set with +40% stam regen, but you have to gulp progress further 😜
ehhheh
there's also lingering stamina mead available at mistlands
i don't know if you saw my carrot field is finished growing i'm just waiting on my friend to finish her house before the troll raids start
i didnt, but thats awesome. you should go full mulan and train against the trolls with a bronze buckler parrying them over and over til then, lllllets get downnn to business!
to defeat the trolls
training to defeat them
helped by the dark souls
you're the saddest boy i ever met
stuck in the black forest true
finish house and plant some carrots too
i botched that
not bad lol
oh or deer hunting to make stew with all them carrots! practice your aim with spears!
hunting deer to make some stew
I've had a few sessions just rolling at charred warriors to learn when they feint
and go plant
some carrots
do that too
imean they feint almost always, and theres no consequence to guessing wrong you just press block again
terrible design imo it just makes beating them take longer sigh standing here blocking, no?-ok blocking again-double feint? ok ill block a third time….
all of their attacks have the same trigger except for swing feint which has an 8 sec cooldown instead of 3, so on average they'll feint less often than normal attacks
that also means if they do a swing feint and start a swing you don't even need to hear the sound to know it's a normal swing
maybe because it's such a slow attack? even when I know theyre feinting I sometimes roll too early because I don't expect it to hit so late
You might find in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 👍
Servers are hosted mainly by players.
Who was it that helped me with making that chest shelf thing?
Nvm
Whats the point of feasts
They seem pretty useless to me
Cheap for how many servings they give, last a long time, give balanced stats
So pretty much saves you on ingredients by making many servings and lasting a long time, saves you on inventory space by not having to walk around with food because they last a long time, and the balanced stats allow you to do my favorite food setup H/H/F (2.5 health foods, 0.5 stamina foods)
Ohh okay, that makes sense
Also serpent food is always OP early, so something like cooked serpent, serpent stew, and serpent (ocean) feast is gonna make you CHUNKY
Plus that ocena feast really lasts a while for not that much serpent meat
it's a little surreal to hear "carrying feasts takes up less space"
Point is you don't carry them.
You place them on a table at home. Take a bite. Go adventuring for 30-50 minutes, go home drop your loot take another bite venture back out
No need to carry the food around
How on earth do you put the forge upgrades in a house without clogging the whole thing up
And work benc
Workbench*
under the floor
or on a raised platform
forge upgrade pieces have difrrent ranges
or outside through the house connected through a small opening
Okay, how on earth do you put them under the floor
dig

Makes sense
personally i prefer above or outside
I have a 2nd floor, so above wont work and ive had them outside its just they kept getting destroyed
SDIYBT
you could also build a bigger house
is it cheating if i use commands to change the weather so these annoying waves stop for a minute
the worst is rolling the thrust attack because it's a mile long. i didn't know feint had a cooldown, i just thought they had like 6 attacks with mixups they chose randomly
i think the game will label you a cheater and you'll be branded with that label if you ever entered a server
that's slightly more interesting than just waiting for feints to land, see a feint and know they're not going to feint... is it gauranteed they're going to feint if they haven't attacked yet? like how a troll is guaranteed to do a down smash if they haven't done it in a while?
really?
that's what i've gathered
pretty sure i saw smithe or someone talkin about that yeah. it's not like a big red sign around your neck but people have hte ability to see/know somehow
but if you use commands to try something out in freebuild and then join a server you get labeled as a cheater?
it's tied to the character, so doesnt matter what world you're in
Only if you do it with the same character
highly doubt that
mmm lead
For the purpose you want, idk
But I'd say the bear armor has a form of paint on it
it doesn't seem like a thing that fits iwth the game's asthetics or like... general.... idk
then like.. you gotta buy a brush from i guess the meadows traders? or make one out of troll groin hair?
inb4 rohan says he asked ai to make paintings 🖼️
then they gotta decide how many colors you get, idk it sounds very intricate for the other things they could be adding
(i'm a little paranoid)
not saying they didnt, they also had music doesnt mean the devs are adding instruments
that would be fire tbh
id really like color options for boats though or different figurheads
viking orchestra
i LOVE how they did instruments in FF14
audible war cries
that game has seriously some of the best social elements
but alas this is a single player game with optional multiplayer
play music to amuse your own self and record for friends
four attacks, and every enemy attack has a cooldown. sometimes it’s shorter than the attack animation so it doesn’t matter
no wtf
interesting. so charred warriors have 4 attacks, and an 8 second cooldown on “feint” which feints whichever of the 4 attacks they randomly choose from?
or do they cycle through 4 attacks evenly?
Did you know that the Thrust feint attack does pierce damage? Even though the damage comes from an upward swing.
@dim python @midnight roost @silk token Using commands will give you the cheater stat you can see when you put "/stats" in in game chat. However as far as i am aware other players don't have access to your stats unless you tell them or send them a screenshot of them. So far it also doesn't affect anything gameplay-wise however i imagine that will change once we get achievements at 1.0.
Yes, one of the reasons I'll run root harnesk in Ashlands on Vhard
Despite its durability being low
they have four attacks in total. thrust, swing, thrust feint and swing feint
all of them have a 3 second cooldown except for swing feint with 8 seconds
Has nothing to do with that.
They just didnt add any yet, but its confirmed by Smiffe that they will come at 1.0
No, there's no achievements because they wanted to finish the game before adding them
Nobody knows
Nope.
It just had 5year aniversary...
Five years in development.
Makes sense, I only run harnsek in Mists. I think the thrust feint should be slash though
ok, that sounds like someone put a lot of thought into something that still means i’m still just essentially pressing block over and over til they’re parried…
both thrusts are pierce
In my experience with games most achievements won't retroactively apply, but if you are at endgame getting most achievements like "Kill Elder" or "do 500 damage in one hit" or whatever are pretty easy to get
That said no idea how Valheim will work
id rather just have 4 different attacks with different timings or area or something
I run it in Swamp/Plains/Mist/Ash/Maybe DN
Though lately I've made a rule for myself to use the full root set if I use the harnesk, which makes it more of a choice for me
