[sleek sky]

its 100% an offering of some kind. but it could be something as simple as hairs from elders who were like the first generation of wolf creatures

we dont know how long those cultists have been wolves in caves

[glad dome]

this could also be true

[granite grail]

How about they each lived in those caves and whenever a honored fenrir died, the ulvs/cultists carefully arrayed their great fur and kept it cared for lol

[sleek sky]

god im turning into a lore theorist 😭

i love the mountains too much

[sleek sky]

thats my thinking. i find it hard to imagine fenrir traveled to all 500 caves per world, dropped some hair, and left

[glad dome]

i think my favorite biome so far is either mountains or plains

but i love the atmosphere of swamp too

[sleek sky]

i like the gameplay of plains but the visuals/enemies/composition of mountains is hard to beat

[glad dome]

idk it feels similar to like when gods give people stuff. its hard to imagine gifts for a chunk of hundreds of thousands of people. i feel like fenrir would have special abilities or smth to help with it lol

[glad dome]

this is true. i like the plains mostly because its the only warm biomes i know of so far. i dont think ashlands counts cause thats like scorching

closest thing i have to a desert biome 💔

wait actually ||deep north|| is my favorite biome

i forgot

atmosphere and appearance wise at least

[mild mason]

Fenris seem to have utilized their fur tufts for curtains (rough hair) and for pedestal display (fine hair)

[sacred jackal]

Does fuling from the fuling villages respawn?

[merry pebble]

Nope 🙂

[sacred jackal]

Mmmm is there a way to farm black metal scraps?

[merry pebble]

Yep, just run around in plains 😄 or look for new villages, there is pretty much always some running around

[sacred jackal]

You think love potions will attract fulings?

[merry pebble]

No unfortunately 😄 those work only for ||trolls||

[silk token]

imean its worship, literally putting fenris hair and claws ON A PEDESTAL. they worshipped the fenrir and became themselves blessed with fenrir power, they’re cultists, it’s not like “yaknow what would spruce this place up? my back hair.”

[sacred jackal]

Damn, well thanks for the infos

[mild mason]

It hangs on the walls too, like decorative curtains.

[silk token]

primarily around altars, with wolf statues and fenrir pieces on pedestals.

[regal cave]

That also seem to be moonlight through a deliberate hole

[mild mason]

I'm not here to argue/dispute... Just stating where I've found Fenris hair.

[silk token]

ok, i thought you were implying the lore of the fenris is to decorate their homes with their fur to look nice, not that the cultists did it as acts of worship.

[dim python]

got hardstuck in the swamps behind a body of water. had to load a backup. logged back in almost died left the swamps in my boat with two stacks of iron. so satisfying 💗

next time i'm placing a f###ing teleporter

i'll also bring another pickaxe, my iron one almost broke ❤️‍🩹

that's why i'm venturing back with just two stacks

[light moat]

Told ya #valheim-chat message

[dim python]

it was a good idea 🥲

[mild mason]

Bring the Antler Pick... can repair it at a workbench on the move between crypts 😛

[silk token]

valheim: 90% preparation 10% screaming

[dim python]

troll and bear just killed my boat when i was trying to sleep near my base

this isn't even a big deal but i might quit valheim

[merry pebble]

The materials will still be there 🙂 you just might have to jump from quite high up for some of them if they are in deep water.

[dim python]

really glad crates full of metal float...

[silk token]

you can do it! with each blow you grow stronger!

[winter glen]

Get rekt

[dim python]

??

[winter glen]

Troll just 360 noscoped the boat and t bagged your body i saw it

[dim python]

is this supposed to be funny

[winter glen]

No but this happens in valheim can take few hours especially if a Mosquito camps ur shi

[merry pebble]

Not unless you are doing something very wrong 🙂

[dim python]

i did something quite wrong, yes?

[merry pebble]

Not as far as i am aware at least 🤔

[dim python]

okay i was just making sure

[sleek sky]

In before someone says “game is too easy. You shouldnt be dying”

[dim python]

keyboard kinda jank i couldn't jump in my own stupid boat

[sleek sky]

My advice is always place a teleprter as the first thing you do when you get to a new biome

Can always place a chest to store non teleprtables for f you need to bail

[dim python]

this wasn't even a teleporter issue this is an established ass house

[sleek sky]

I can also say you might want to break the boat when you leave

So mobs dont break it

[dim python]

i was just... stopping at one of my mini bases to sleep...

it was a troll cave right next to the water.

i was supposed to stop get in sleep get out go off

[hazy cypress]

Plain dumb luck then.

[sleek sky]

Sorry im not understanding what happened. Ill shut up now

[dim python]

while setting up to sleep a troll and bear appeared that killed me and my boat

[hazy cypress]

Personally, I try not to sleep out if I can help it. I have a few spawn points just in case but usually I'll just keep moving.

[dim python]

i was avoiding night serpents

[glad dome]

just defeated a ||sealed tower|| for the first time and got 2 ||eggs|| 😛

[burnt glen]

gg

[sleek sky]

Far away from base?

Home i mean

[hazy cypress]

Fair. Though, if you've got the wind and a stack of arrows, you can outrun/take them out (Presuming you have the Karve and not the Raft).

[burnt glen]

So the Honey Glazed Chicken is cooked in the oven for 50 seconds but it says Grilled to perfection. Make both eyes and mouths water. in its description. But it's not grilled 🤔

[dim python]

kind of.

I anticipated needing to sleep and rest at night so i have various spots to stop for a quick break

think of it like a truck stop but one person built it for their own self and boat

[hazy cypress]

I've got Camps, Portals, and General Outposts scattered all around.

[sleek sky]

Personally? I rarely sleep and just keep moving

I only sleep to skip grow time and smelters, or if im undereqquipped for something at night. Usually i just keep running

[silk token]

sleeping for visibility is fine but you really should be strong enough to kill the aquatic uber eats delivery service. my hindsight tip is dont park your boat next to a troll cave 🙃

[dim python]

i'd already killed the troll 😭 and troll caves are such beautiful and convenient places to put a base by the ocean

[silk token]

lol. well the troll’s cousin came for vengence😂 drop a campfire in the cave so their second cousin doesnt spawn

[dim python]

the troll cave already has a campfire that's how i sleep in it 😭

[silk token]

oh! nice, i love troll beds too. but where dat troll and bear come from then?!

[dim python]

around the side

it just sauntered over from nearby

[mild mason]

Live to fight another day, learn from it, and thrive. Don't give up, you got this

[wispy hearth]

Kill trolls, put their heads on the poles, set poles around the cave with sign that say BEWARE, Dead trolls tell no tales

[dark coyote]

damn I just got 14 cores in one b.c. never seen that many

[hazy cypress]

Nice

[wispy hearth]

Also is it just me or is there more 1 and 2 stars creatures than usual during daylights?

This save, my first troll was 1 starred, second bear was 1 starred. My first walk into swamp, 2 starred leech was right in the river between meadow/swamp. First draugr spawners, spawned 2 starred archer, one shotted me too many time and I fought 2 starred skelly right after. Lots of 1-2 starred skellies around, in bc, swamp spawners, etc. 1 starred draugrs aren't uncommon for me either. Mountain was ok for me, plain first village had couple of 1 starred fulings, 1 2 starred fuling, 1 starred berserker. That was fun.

[thorny osprey]

look IronGate isn't perfect but please don't ever cater to people who post things like this

nothing to deal with being LAUNCHED into lava by valkyries or asksvin

bro just fucking dodge wtf 😭

[dark coyote]

or positioning?

[silk token]

also if they just got launched by a valk they were probly gonna die anyway 😂

[smoky quarry]

gjall getting mosquito swarmed and going up like a balloon lol

kept on shaking and dropping ticks from the sky

itt dissapeared upwards

[dull warren]

True but Coffee Stain is the bee's knees

[sacred jackal]

anyone know a faster way to get more tar? I built a tar farm but it only produce 2 tars a day and thats very slow for me

[oak river]

How do you make a tar farm?

The fastest way is probably to just get it manually from exploring plains

[sacred jackal]

you can check youtube, from a channel named 04AM

wish they drop like 3 or more tars ngl, maybe even more since the only useful thing for them is blob bomb and everything is just decorations

[molten tinsel]

@bronze slate We only did elder last night and started farming iron properly so i just literally just finished that side of the cellar, havnt moved anything into that build yet haha

[bronze slate]

okie okie

[marble cypress]

Started a new vanilla playthrough - I was NOT prepared for the Early Axes to become my new fav weapon!

Found them pretty early - like day 2 - and discovered they cut fine woood. Now its practically all I'm using.

[steel mica]

The ost for valheim is so engraved in the back of my head

That I just start humming whatever music I feel like humming with

Whilst doing chores

[regal cave]

I gotta be up for work in 2 hours but im reading norse mythology hoping the last forsaken is something like hel

[hollow chasm]

Deep north when?

[pliant hatch]

When is ready. And no ready yet. Or boss dev tell us.

[frank wind]

guys is there any mod that finds copper or tin for me? ive found a oremines mod but idk if it still works it hasent been updated in 7 months

[thin elbow]

not sure, but make sure to get a vein-mine mod that mines the whole vein for you while you're at it too

[frank wind]

i would like to play without mods but i just cant find it ive explored the whole dark forest any tips?

[thin elbow]

tin is always by water (coastline/rivers), copper looks like the other large boulders

[frank wind]

can i mine down and try to find some?

[thin elbow]

nah it's not like minecraft

they are surface rocks only

[final bloom]

It’s frustrating isn’t it. We use the more ore mod because of this. But if you want to stay true to the game, keep looking. You only need one or two rocks to get you through the game.
Part of the fun exploring, but they are hard to spot. There is an HD mod that renders them better so easier to see, but haven’t used that in a while.

[near furnace]

tin lies around shoreline in the black forrest.
Copper is huge rocks more in the black forrest itself and you can dig under them and/or to the sides to see the entire node.

[spark plover]

copper boulders have some kinda shiny lines on them btw

[near furnace]

and if you mouse over them, they will say what they are

[winged lodge]

yo

[winged lodge]

i frogot rule 11 im very sorry forgive me

sorry my memory forgot that i did not mean to ping it was an mistake

but i was trying to say any tips for ashlands just asking if im pepered or not

[spark plover]

r u playing as a mage?

[winged lodge]

nah sword

i have magic too'

[spark plover]

then I'd reccomend full tank, mistwalker/silver sword with carapace buckler, carapace armor and triple health food worked rlly well for me

[winged lodge]

i have the carapace thing shield

i have miswakker too

[spark plover]

silver sword might deal more dmg, but mistwalker can be nice for the frost effect

[tacit crystal]

Silver sword deals more damage against charred and valkyries, Mistwalker against everything else.

I recommend having 1 stamina food, you need it for actions and movement. Utility meads like Ratatosk also can help.

[winged lodge]

ok

[near furnace]

I usually forgive people for pinging me. But the others dont need to look at discord for their job 😅

[winged lodge]

i forgot the rule soryy

[near furnace]

I would say.. be careful where you make your landing into ashlands. There are more than 1 place to land

[winged lodge]

ty whens deepnorth is comming

btw i have the darkker boat i think it wont droun right:

[spark plover]

yeah that one doesn't take dmg

[near furnace]

deep north comes when its done so

[near furnace]

Drakkar are safe from boiling waters

[winged lodge]

ty for the info

[wanton sigil]

Im out of the loop regarding game news, I figure deep north is still got a while to go, but has it been confirmed/mentioned anywhere whether the 1.0 update will go to the PTB first as the Mistlands and Ashands patch did? Or will this be treated differently given it is the full launch?

Just wondering if I prep a world up to end of Ashlands content or prepare to start fresh

[nocturne wolf]

we don’t know if there will be public testing but you will be able to use an old world

[wanton sigil]

Thought that might be the case, thanks!

[hybrid orbit]

Are they goin to put achievements when the game comes out of preview?

Or did the game already got out of preview?

[merry pebble]

They will be added once 1.0 comes out, yep 🙂

[hybrid orbit]

Noice thanks

[near furnace]

@pulsar coral no, but plenty of people who write in english. so please follow the language rules

[hazy cypress]

Can you cultivate Thistle?

[merry pebble]

Nope, but it is quite abundant and it will regrow eventually 🙂

[hazy cypress]

Except when you're actually looking for it. LOL

[merry pebble]

As usual when looking for pretty much anything xD

[near furnace]

takes a few ingame days for it to regrow

but you can thistle both in black forrest and swamps

[jagged wind]

the trick is to mark them on map when running by and then just come few days later and do a sprint collecting lap

[paper marsh]

I always mark things on the map but I never end up needing to go back and get them bc I get so much from exploring

[merry pebble]

Usually same, but sometimes i run out of certain things accidentaly and then i am glad i marked stuff 😄

[jagged wind]

i mainly mark blueberries, as i ran out of them.. and thistles for lot of sausages

and some spaces where theres lot of raspberries together

for other stuff never needed to return to same place tbh

[tacit crystal]

I mark mushrooms, blueberries and some raspberries nowadays, cloudberries are very plentiful and thistles are found also easily so I rarely mark them anymore.

[jagged wind]

oh mushrooms! forgot about those

[hazy cypress]

I've done that in a few spots for blueberries, but now I'm just finding them.

I have a ton of Raspberries around my base so I don't really need to mark those. lol.

[jolly bane]

lmao instantly vanished

[hazy cypress]

Oh...oh no...I didn't realize I can do Medium Healing Meads now...Oh boy!

[hazy cypress]

"I know it's against the rules, but I'm gonna do it anyway."

[jolly bane]

yeah you know how it is

or maybe you dont idk

[hazy cypress]

Finally got myself some sausages, Muckshake, and Black Stew.

[hazy cypress]

I'm gonna guess that "It's not taking the bait" means that I'm using the wrong bait?

[pulsar coral]

oh 😭

[tacit crystal]

What are you trying to fish?

[hazy cypress]

Not sure. It looked blue/grey and chonky near shore of Meadows and BF.

Catfish maybe?

[quasi night]

Trollfish, you need to craft bait + troll trophy on the food prep table to catch them, iirc

[tacit crystal]

Base bait catches only pike and perch, others require crafting new baits with certain trophies in preparation table.

[hazy cypress]

So, any Idea what this is? #screenshots message

[lunar sapphire]

Tis a sunken well

[hazy cypress]

Appreciated but not terribly helpful. lol.

[lunar sapphire]

what do you want me to say lmao

it's a well underwater

[hazy cypress]

Does it have a use? Is it Explorable? Should I note it's location for future things?

[lunar sapphire]

Nein, Nada, Nah

Just a Poi - see it once move on.

if it's not flooded there's sometimes/often a chest to loot iirc

[hazy cypress]

So just a red herring that I thought might have been a crypt.

[tacit crystal]

Sometimes there can be draugr elite at the bottom.

[lunar sapphire]

swamp crympts will always have green torches out front and a stair like structure

or should always have torches

[hazy cypress]

Ther...was a green torch...

[jolly pagoda]

Its weed powered

[lunar sapphire]

Original, creative, show-stopping, unique, one-of-a-kind, beautiful joke

[jolly pagoda]

Thank you thank you

...Yeah...that...

[indigo adder]

hey, if i was to rent a server host who is the best provider to price, with modding capabilities? I am familiar Nitrado but have recently been taking a step back from them.

[regal cave]

Dang its been so long I dont I remember

[elfin hearth]

I’ve personally used HostHavoc for my servers and have never had any issues, pretty solid performance with about 4-6 players consistently

If you go that route be sure to look up discounts and what not, I pretty much have always found something that took a few dollars off too

[silk token]

are you working? ur wanna duo?

[regal cave]

Omw home

[silk token]

oh ok lol. im like he said he was working but he's typing a lot

[regal cave]

I am NOT texting with my knee on the wheel 👀

[silk token]

i guess thats better than-.... no it's... yeah thats the worst

[stable anvil]

is it possible for my world to not have any tetra pond?

[tacit crystal]

Afaik no, there will always be caves with water inside but they are much rarer.

[stable anvil]

time to keep looking

[dim python]

there's many things i wish you didnt do 💗

(thank you for being responsible)

[mild mason]

I didn't*
But I continue learning

[dim python]

i know i was misquoting it on purpose in a context relevant way 👍

you really do continue learning

[glad night]

Ok, I'm calling BS on mistwalker... 142 hp, 73 armour, and 116 block armour and I get one shot...
-# through my block

[mortal oriole]

Boy, that sounds tough!

[mortal oriole]

What is your actual blocking skill?

[glad night]

10

Was using black metal tower shield

[mortal oriole]

Oh yeah, that is extremely low. Only way to get blocking skill up quickly is to raid a Grey Dwarf Nest at night and block til you drop. You can also make a wild animal pen. Skeletons are great to practice block against also, you can find them around towers in the Black Forest. You get the idea.

[queen wadi]

3 twigs

[glad night]

Yeah, I know. Just been busy with other things haha

[mortal oriole]

I used to play on someones modded server, they had a portal to the skeleton room. You blocked them as best you could, there were 100 skeletons firing arrows, very effective

[glad night]

Nice

[nocturne wolf]

the secondary can do more damage to a player than a 2-star charred warrior, what did you expect?

[glad night]

Uhhh... Didn't know that

Also haven't made it to ashlands yet

Lots to look forward to I guess lol

[silk token]

remember if your block fails its as though you didn’t block at all, it doesn’t subtract your shield’s block armor.

[granite grail]

huh???? I didn't know flamental ore towers could just.....sink willy nilly into the lava

[sleek sky]

Yeah they can

Its quite annoying. Same with leviathans

[merry pebble]

Yep 😄 not nearly as often as they used to, but they still do

[paper marsh]

Does feel rather silly to me how low a chance it is now

[merry pebble]

Yeah, the 1% is really low

[nocturne wolf]

it could be a higher chance but only possible after a certain amount has been broken

otherwise it would sink after 1-2 hits too often

[eternal blade]

agreed, out of three I mined, only one actually sunk

[sleek sky]

I remember on a world i had i cleared 4 pillars and on the last hit it sunk everytime 😩

[merry pebble]

Only on the last hit? Whats wrong with that?

[regal cave]

1% is pretty ridiculous

[granite grail]

crude....how am I gonna get my body out o the lava with a ton of enemies around

[frosty ravine]

Game worth getting into as a new player? Probably solo

[paper marsh]

Kill the enemies

Though I'd be surprised if your body is in water rather than lava after such an endevour

[granite grail]

yes lava I meant

[granite grail]

with what armor 😭

[merry pebble]

100%

[paper marsh]

Very much so, it's a great experience solo

I know plenty of people here with over a thousand hours, but I suppose it depends what type of game you like

[paper marsh]

The backup armor at your base you keep there in case of death 😄

Could also make a staff of protection, even naked that should protect you a ton if you just spam it whenever it breaks

[frosty ravine]

Might give it a try after work. Normally play FPS but want something to play in between

[uncut jasper]

retrieving corpses on top of lava is huge pain. i once died 6 times just to retrieve my corpse

[paper marsh]

Don't forget to pack some basalt bombs

[merry pebble]

-# Was typing that just now 😄

[paper marsh]

I'm stealing your thunder

Soon I'll be punching drakes too

[merry pebble]

Go for it 😄 it is fun

[paper marsh]

I'd like to earn the title of "Dropkicker of Drakes"

[uncut jasper]

first time mistook smoke bomb for basalt bomb. second time thought staff of protection could protect me. third time didn't realize the platforms have a limited duration. fourth time got knocked off by a twitcher. fifth time stepped down while trying to get to the edge. sixth time accidentally jumped over bc drank a jumping potion

[granite grail]

Okay surprisingly with my carapace helmet and fenris armor and my mistwalker I managed to retrieve my body 🫡 Why is the mistwalker so much more powerful then the Nidhogg?

[regal cave]

Basalt

[paper marsh]

Nidhogg needs ||enchantments ||to be good. Even then tho mistwalker and silver sword compete pretty well

[uncut jasper]

ye pretty much everything in ashland are weak to spirit dmg

[nocturne wolf]

against charred and valkyries silver sword does more damage and has a lower stamina cost

[sleek sky]

i found a really interesting bug yesterday and i dont know how to reproduce it, nor have i ever seen it in my 500+ hours of valheim

[nocturne wolf]

what was the bug?

[fiery forum]

I love Valheim and I will never not glaze it.

[sleek sky]

in a multiplayer world i was doing, my friend placed an anvils in the world. however, when placed, the game actually placed a smiths anvil. we have NOT even beaten the elder yet thus it should be impossible for him to have the 20 iron needed to make a smiths anvil. even weirder was when i destroyed it and picked up the iron, both of us unlocked the iron recipes

[nocturne wolf]

are either of you playing with any mods?

[sleek sky]

him? no. me? i have some like ui mods

nothing that affects resources. the server also has no serverside mods

only client side (and only me)

any idea what might have caused it?

[alpine wyvern]

MNFAOOO

im in that same situation

[alpine wyvern]

someone is lying

one of you are using an older character

and used the free build mode

[sleek sky]

this was my friends first day of playing valheim and he didnt even know where iron came from. also dont you need to unlock the recipes? we didnt have them unlocked till after i broke it

[alpine wyvern]

there is no other way for that to happen

[nocturne wolf]

I think it must be the mod but I don't know why it would only affect that one build piece and not all of them

[alpine wyvern]

but if they have no mods

installed that could do that its not plausible

@sleek sky what mods are installed

[sleek sky]

by, me, my friend, or the server

i did not place it, so my client mods theoretically wouldnt affect it

also i personally tried placing an anvils and did not end up placing a smiths anvil

it only happened once

[silk token]

did THEY see the smith anvil before you broke it or did it look like small anvils to them?

[sleek sky]

tonight ill look at to see what mods the other person had. last i checked they have a single mod which removed encumberance

[sleek sky]

they were new to the game so they didnt know what the difference was (since they had never been in the swamp)

oh shit i think i might have an idea what happened

[silk token]

i thought they didnt have mods, but they had an encumbrance mod?

[sleek sky]

thats what they told me. but i have no evidence that they do/dont

also idk if they know how to install mods

[alpine wyvern]

hm

[silk token]

i think its only 2 options.
1- theyre lying and have mods and/or are using a character from another world that had iron unlocked and used free build or a mod that lets them build whatever
2- your mods did it somehow

mods do crazy things all the time

[alpine wyvern]

yeah thats what i thought too lol

[sleek sky]

im wondering if this is because of willybach hd 2.0

[silk token]

thats also wild that they built an anvil by the crafting table? was it in range of a crafting table to be built even

[sleek sky]

i will test this later

[silk token]

if there was no crafting table close-ish theyre lying/cheating

imean forge

[sleek sky]

i believe there was a forge yes

tonight ill do some testing to see if i can get it to happen again

[silk token]

no encumbrance mod is nuts i never heard of that one. you know how much of the game that negates?

[sleek sky]

dont blame me

i didnt even know he even knew how to do mods 😭 (still dont)

[silk token]

oh so he DOES have mods. ok if he has a no encumbrance mod he is 100% potentially the problem with some crazy free build mod or something who knows. if he really is new tell him stop it and play the game first idk who instantly downloads every mod they can find having never played the game before

[sleek sky]

he didnt tell me he was getting mods till after he already did. no clue how he did it cuz i didnt even tell him what websites valheim mods are on, how to install, etc

you bring up a good point. now im scared what did he install...

ok i dont actually know if he does or doesnt have mods since he didnt show me

he just said he installed a "no encumberance" mod then didnt tell me the name so idk what the fuck is going on

also imagine installing a no encumberance mod in your first world 💀

[silk token]

right? how does he even know what the encumbrance is in the game? i dont think its his first time playing. its a giant web of lies

[sleek sky]

well he didnt buy the game until yesterday so

oh boy did he lie to me 💀 he downloaded this https://www.wemod.com/cheats/valheim-trainers 💀

and he said he turned everything off but the carry weight but still bleh

[foggy glacier]

lol yeah. Anyone that researches mods before buying the game isn't going to be turning them off.

I don't even understand why he bothered to buy/play the game.

[sleek sky]

🤣

yeah

ok well i just told him how to mod correctly so maybe this problem will solve itself

still not quite sure why that would cause the anvils bug but i think im just going to give up

[foggy glacier]

attempting to determine why a mod causes a bug is an exercise in frustration, even for the developer.

[regal cave]

Wemod is a cheat engine i believe and I think you can do almost anything undetected. Theres probably a no-cost option and he clicked the wrong anvil

[rapid bison]

Some people want to be an argument for why servers use a permitted only list, i guess.

[silk token]

i dont think there was a bug, i think there was a mod

[sleek sky]

mods can have bugs too

[silk token]

whoa. my game crashed. i think for the first time ever.

[sleek sky]

probably

ok so it appears it had nothing to do with any mods cuz theres weird shit all over the world. likely answer is someone sneakily came onto the server without us knowing and started placing shit

someone placed like 10k gold worth of gold piles in a random place and the 2 people on the server i know about dont even know what a gold pile is

[vague mantle]

whats the loot table for trees?

[silk token]

weird so they placed an anvil the second your friend placed small anvils?

[sleek sky]

my friend didnt realize what he placed (since hes new) so its probable that they replaced it when no one was at his house

[regal cave]

Do u have your password public?

[silk token]

theres no chance this friend of yours who is brand new and downloaded a mass cheating mod placed stuff?

[sleek sky]

no but its insanely easy to guess

[sleek sky]

i doubt he would be able to figure out how to do that or even got it working at all. i asked him and he didnt have any clue (obvious thats what he said but then the question is why place a smiths anvil and nothing else)

[regal cave]

I dont put it past the public to guess at passwords and grief your world but placing items is not griefing at all and to me your friend is just lying

[sleek sky]

maybe. still doesnt explain why he would place a smiths anvil (which he doesnt know what it does) and then 10 gold piles in a random black forest near nothing

[regal cave]

He was hiding the gold from you probably. The less he knows the more it makes sense he clicked something random or the wrong item

[sleek sky]

likely. i deleted the gold piles and the anvil

[steel mica]

If you plan to play a new game and jump straight into modding

you're asking to have a different experience

[sleek sky]

yeah no fucking shit wild stuff started happening lmao

used a modding website from another game and not the right website

i have now steered him towards thunderstore and gale manager because its the right thing to do

[regal cave]

"I wish..."
"I WISH YOU COULD HAVE FUN"

[steel mica]

Maybe try first a couple hundred hours or maybe finish the game FIRST

[sleek sky]

ikr

[stable anvil]

queen dead

didnt kill me

[light moat]

Dang, Queen was really tough for me
Well done!

[stable anvil]

well, i guess i'm not playing on normal but its not like it was super easy

by the end the room is full of all sorts of stuff

i made like 100 bile bombs, 500 frost arrows, every mead i would need, etc

[paper marsh]

What was your main way of dealing damage?

[stable anvil]

mistwalker and when she spawned things i threw bile bombs around

its like day 460 something and my sword skill is 63

[silk token]

that sounds about right just progressing up to ashlands, im like 60-70 in my main weapon at that point

[paper marsh]

Nice! She can be a toughie

[granite grail]

Yet another day of oh how much I frikking despise everything about the ashlands-

[stable anvil]

i have my boat made for it but idk what i'm gonna do about being there when i get there

i kinda dont want to

what should i try to do? make a grausten spire landing spot?

[regal cave]

Put a portal down kill everything put another portal down

Its Hella fun

I dont think the biome is meant to be hospitable to structures

[paper marsh]

A lot of things I like about ashlands, a couple I really don't like

[granite grail]

I don't like anything about it

[paper marsh]

I find the enemies pretty cool. Varied designs and attack patterns, and a unique friendly fire mechanic on most of them to turn them against one another

And the gear has some very cool effects that I’m a fan of. Could be balanced a bit better but cool nonetheless

[regal cave]

Yeah could be harder 🥱

[abstract warren]

Calm down satan 👹

[granite grail]

Why am I getting casually attacked by 6 seekers and a one star in the middle of a field.....if there's a mine around here it's hiding very well

[lunar sapphire]

it's actually theirs

[final bloom]

I take over large structures of grausten inside the lava flows. Only a few mobs manage to make it inside and fun to deal with stuff. Be very watchful of where valkeries spawn cause having one too close is…. The end….

[rain flare]

But how do I stab them if they don’t get close? 😂

[final bloom]

Oh sorry I forgot, I play with a mod that allows up to 5 stars of any particular mob, so I am extra wary.

[rain flare]

Blood and Helfire man! 🤣🤣🤣

You crazy! 😂

I run if I see a 2*, I wouldn’t even leave my house if I had 5*’s around! 😂

[final bloom]

I was in my plains base harvesting barley etc at night and a 5 star vile heard me. I decided I had enough barley at that point.

[rain flare]

That thing will literally smash through your walls like paper!

[tacit crystal]

That will break out of the monitor.

[last otter]

[final bloom]

We enjoy the fact that at some point in any given biome, a mob could spawn that means you literally need to go to plan B. We are hoping the Queen doesn’t spawn a 5 star during that fight. But we are hoping a 5 star dwarf will spawn and help us sometime during Ashlands haha

[frosty ravine]

First 4 hours done - can feel a lot more hours incoming. Was pretty fun!

[paper marsh]

Those must take ages to kill 😂

But I guess it's a bit safer than playing vhard

[plush carbon]

I just saw on the wiki that if you defeat the queen, Gjall never appears, so there's no need to have shields at the base since Gjall only appears in Mistlands. A huge relief, and that way I don't have to keep the shields active, which spoils the scenery.

[tacit crystal]

Gjall raid will get disabled, but they can randomly spawn still.

[pliant hatch]

Gjall will appear. The raid won't happen anymore.

[paper marsh]

I mean, depends on if your base is in mistlands or not

But yeah Gjall NEVER spawn outside of the mistlands. Even their raid is unique to mistlands

[pliant hatch]

Darn, ninja'd. 🙁

[plush carbon]

Exactly, that's what I mean. Being out of Mistlands, it's now certain they'll never come, which is a relief because I was worried about my base.

[paper marsh]

It makes me a bit sad, I feel like it would be fun defending my base from some Gjall

[plush carbon]

Partly yes, I prefer something that flies but isn't so destructive.

[weary sierra]

When is 1.0 release ?! I can't wait anymore 😣

[paper marsh]

Unknown

[plush carbon]

Do you know if there are gems in Ashlands to upgrade all weapon variants as much as possible right now? Because I just arrived and I see a lot of them, I don't know if they'll work.

[paper marsh]

There's not a ton of gems, probably won't be able to fully upgrade all weapons

If that was the question

I think the black forge / galdr table also don't have the upgrades yet to be able to fully upgrade all the ashlands gear (which will probably come with deep north)

[plush carbon]

Yes, and do you know if it would be enough to at least make all the variants of all the weapons at level 1?

I knew about the upgrade table, but I was wondering if it would at least allow me to get all the weapons and their variations.

[paper marsh]

Kinda depends on rng

I'd say probably not if you want all three enchantments on every type of weapon, along with making magic staves

Would have to visit another world to get more gems

[spark plover]

I'd suggest trying out the weapons without gems first and then try what enchantment works best for you

[plush carbon]

I have the staves; I found 5 gems in my first stronghold. Because Ashlands is so big, I thought there would be enough for almost every variety, even if only at level 1. I don't think there can be many left, maybe 6 at most, and I'd prefer to think there might be fewer.

I say this because I don't want to go to another world, I'm sure there's one in Deep North. I already have the basic weapons; it's more for decoration and collecting, just to have everything.

[tacit crystal]

Or clear whole Ashlands content with bare Flametal weapons. Berserkir axes and Splitnir served me well in recent playthrough.

[light moat]

Another member for the raw weapons club 😎

[tacit crystal]

Base weapons and limited to spears, axes and knives in this playthrough, so.

[paper marsh]

I wanna say there tends to be like 12-13 ashlands strongholds per world. Most of them near the middle of ashlands, the sides end up being pretty barren

I wouldn't expect there to be more ways of getting gems in Deep North, but you never know

[spark plover]

I thought each world has 20

[eternal blade]

Hmm....after conquering ashlands with magic, I decided to switch things around and go in with melee weapons and...it kinda seems easier. My melee skills are around 30, so is blocking, ele magic at 56. But it feels like it's faster to kill things in melee

[tacit crystal]

20 fortresses in each world.

Or rather, limit.

[light moat]

I wonder if any interesting or unique fortress generations have been discovered? Like one in the ocean or something 🤔

[paper marsh]

Fortress casually generates inside Queen's Dungeon

[serene flower]

is anyone actively playing with the valheimRAFT mod?

[paper marsh]

I'd ask in #mods-discussion

[dim python]

i found another mysterious axehead instead of a curious one 😭

[paper marsh]

sadness

Guess you're just not curious enough, little one

[dim python]

#depression

i'm probably older than you

[silk token]

ive always felt this too and am so confused when people say magic is op. when i parry thrust instakill an asksvin im like ok… and sure you dont have an op hp bubble but you also dont have to worry about having a vulnerable 1shot health pool to recast when it breaks

[paper marsh]

I mean I suppose it's up to whether you're better at spacing or timing

But my view is that magic just has a much much lower skill level than melee. It has a huge margin for error, not requiring specific timings, only a light focus on resource management, and being able to stay far from enemies and cc them

[regal cave]

Insert my opinion of magic and eating lunch without dirty hands

[silk token]

like my first landing was magic and i spent so much time long range and kiting and running, 2nd time sword and shield and was like “oh, you can just… FIGHT things”

[paper marsh]

Not that Melee can't perform just as well / better than magic, but then you need to have the skill to pull it off

[regal cave]

Magic is little dvergr energy ok im done

[silk token]

maybe this is a good way of putting it or why it’s “op”

you dont have to be that prepared or have timing, just see a warrior far away and pewpewpewpewepwepwepwepew it dies before it gets to you. OR, running jumping krom thrust, it staggers, krom thrust, dead

[regal cave]

Insert glitched reto and vines

[silk token]

ya vines are super strong lol, but i still say i can kill a thing with slayer before vines can kill a thing

[regal cave]

Ya i was supporting the tactless approach of magic

[paper marsh]

IMO it's just relatively comparable damage (without jormundling in a boss fight, maybe), Magic wins on survivability, magic wins on ease of picking up

Melee wins on actually being interesting and engaging

But each have their use cases

[regal cave]

Lemme summon a thing that will play the game for me XD im a hater, i think the magic is cool

[silk token]

i do actually like managing a skeleton army, wish they were good, or wish you could decide melee or range skeles somehow

[nocturne wolf]

ranged should be secondary attack but melees need a buff or people would only use ranged

[silk token]

melee needs knockback resistance or somethinh

[paper marsh]

Would be nice to have melee have a bit more health and improved path finding

[silk token]

ya they’re so freaking slow too

[nocturne wolf]

they should both have armor too. it doesn't need to be worn or anything, just some armor value to take the same damage a player would.

[silk token]

and their collision is unplayable in dungeons

[regal cave]

Melee knockback makes them unusable imo I watch my lvl 100 not be able to kill a boar

[silk token]

but idk theyre kinda fun, ive used them purely as a distraction tool in ashlands with a hybrid build. it just feelsbad when they level by hitting things and everything knocks them back out of their melee range lol

ya thats why i wish i could hit secondary and summon range if i choose, would be fun being the frontline for my ranged army

but then id need health and not eityr, and i kind of refuse to use blood shield… idk its a hard problem to fix

[regal cave]

Magic seems like a utility class meant to be part of a group like trying to mid Sona if you get the reference. Im conflicted about bubble because health gate as a fighter is op however the tradeoff of casting it is not worth it i dont die or get hit enough to care

Summon a troll or use thundering nidhog easy pick for me

[silk token]

utility class is pretty accurate. you can sort if control the field with vines and summons and slow things, obv shield staff is great for a party

[regal cave]

Which has me stirring about deep north because my impression was this wasnt meant to be multiplayer however fortresses absolutely seem to be meant for strategy raids + magic utility. Not complaining by any means, im looking forward to it being really brutal

[silk token]

same, idk how exactly they do that, deep snow and stuff sounds cool, i want the environment to be merciless. cold storms that really crush your stamina, deep snow your movement, stuff like that, maybe you can only be in a blizzard a couple minutes unsheltered or you just straight up die

but people would probably go wah i cant sprint constantly deep north too hard and boring

[paper marsh]

People do wah a lot

[dim python]

i hope the deep north first raid isn't a raid at all and is instead your base getting covered with snow ☃️

[lunar sapphire]

Snow as heavy as ash?

[dim python]

that's what the shovel is for\

we'll be ready 🛠️

[lunar sapphire]

speaking of ready

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1171414605751406592/1459209510081003571/dn3.gif

[paper marsh]

Since I play on max raids I feel like I'd be hit with a DN raid before actually going there

Which honestly sounds like a nice way to get familiarized with the mobs of the biome

[astral trout]

does anyone know a command to get rid of durability drain in my world

[nocturne wolf]

You can't disable it

[astral trout]

😭

[paper marsh]

Would probably need a mod

[lunar sapphire]

Nah, I can't help with that

[paper marsh]

Is that worth it for durability though? I feel things take ages to break

Maybe unless you're playing no map no portal

[silk token]

ahem. durability isnt a problem in no portal. actually except one time my cape broke, but that was an extreme circumstance and a very very extended camping trip i did not plan for, but also that was part of the fun

[silk token]

i kind of dont want that actually. i want my “….the hell is that…” moments and my “the hell is THAT?!?!” moments

like even the first time i saw a rabbit in mistlands i was like ive seen monty python im not going near that thing

[rain flare]

First went into the mistlands with friends and was quite amusing 😂
We found a dvergr and the two crazy people decided to immediately provoke him 😂

Then we found a tower of dverger and a gjall so 🤣

[jolly pagoda]

I was exploring/traveling/gathering stuff for 2 hours yesterday and I can't wait to get back on today and sort through the pile of shit I tossed inside my sorted chests building. I always bring a travel portal with me around for non metal drop offs and repairs

I forgot how large serpent heads are lmao

[grand juniper]

Please bros, can I get a hint at the 1.0 release. I ask because I'm going to be losing my internet soon, but I want to know how long I should try and hold off so I can get the latest release and play with my friends.

[paper marsh]

If you're losing your internet soon I'd say it's probably not worth trying to hold on to, but better to try to figure out how to get it back once it Deep North does come out

Since they haven't given a release date yet, I imagine it's not right around the corner

[grand juniper]

That makes sense.

[hollow chasm]

Two years later:
Deep north still coming

[lunar sapphire]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/976439221629894667/1097469084951642142/ezgif.com-gif-maker_-_2022-06-22T203037.569.gif

[rain flare]

Agreed

[spice wraith]

or its just one really long corner

[paper marsh]

That's...

That's not how corners work

[glad night]

Sure it is, it just becomes a circle at some point though 😝

[fierce condor]

ni

[final bloom]

It’s an enjoyable feat that’s for sure

[sage shadow]

any tips for finding bog witch

[thin elbow]

just sail around swamps

[final bloom]

I imagine there will be some sort of polar bear in Deep north, which is why bears appeared as they didn’t used to exist earlier on. White on white, just look for the tiny black nose smiling at you.

[nocturne wolf]

that would be the second bear reskin

[main mist]

do tombstones disappear now? I thought they persisted forever as long as an item was in them

[merry pebble]

They do stay, tho world rollback might make them dissapear

[nocturne wolf]

leaving the game immediately after dying can cause saving issues which lose them

[main mist]

on a dedicated server that hasn't shutdown/crashed... friend says his tombstone from last night is gone

[nocturne wolf]

did he quit immediately after dying?
he could load a character backup with the manage saves button on character select

[main mist]

Hrm

I saw a mod that saves character data on the server instead, would that cause problems for users single player characters/games?

[merry pebble]

Possibly? Mods can cause all sorts of issues.

[tacit crystal]

Bears are fun to fight tho.

[main mist]

On a different note, different player recovered corpse, but a torch and hammer I think were left in it, inside a troll cave... went back a few days later and that tombstone is gone... is there a limit to the number of tombstones a player has that could cause it to despawn?

[mellow patio]

Hello
I just bought this game and it’s been two days I can’t find any open server to play with people, any suggestions

[tacit crystal]

Check https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510

[merry pebble]

All servers are run by players themselves, there are no truly open servers as this is primarily a singleplayer game with the option to play with friends 🙂

[merry pebble]

Are there any mods in use at all when we are on the subject? Be it on server or by players.

[main mist]

Yes, but none that should affect tombstones

well.. I supose Azu Equipment Slots could

[merry pebble]

Doesent really matter i am afraid... As i said mods just cause all sorts of issues taht might not be at first glance at all related to their intended purpose.

[jolly pagoda]

I think 3/4 of my time in valheim has been solo

Roughly

[main mist]

Was hoping to find something in the log, but not much help there

[merry pebble]

Is there any mod that would affect terrain? Or maybe dungeon reset of some sort?

[main mist]

used the world generator accelerator mod, but after world gen removed it

[plush carbon]

I have a question: is there something I don't know, or how do people put things upside down? Like, is the wooden arch a mood element or something external?

[tacit crystal]

Mod, very likely.

[rich iron]

Do y'all think valheim could hypotheticaly run on my 12 year old processor that uses integrated graphics?

And 10 gigs of ddr3 ram

Hypothetical situation ofc

[sleek sky]

so whats the reason you cant deconstruct boats with a hammer and have to break it with weapons

[silk token]

i imagine misclick prevention. i think they shouldnt even give all mats back when destroyed but thats probly just me

[sleek sky]

that is... certainly a take

but what do you mean by misclick prevention?

[paper marsh]

My favorite biome to base in

wrong chat tho

[chrome badge]

There have been many times where I hop out of my boat, place a workbench, spin around repair the boat, and spin back to remove the workbench. In third person you can accidentally highlight your boat and if it were possible to destroy it this way, players would likely run into this a lot.

[sleek sky]

isnt that how it works for anything else? i guess im confused why boats are special

[chrome badge]

Because your boat materials would sink

[paper marsh]

Which could leave you stranded

[dark coyote]

yeah but you can stand at the mast and deconstruct it
if you could that is

[paper marsh]

Though I agree I don't think it's a big deal

[chrome badge]

I would be very annoyed if I could 1 click destroy a boat.

It takes 4 seconds to chop it down.

[chrome badge]

Also, the scenario I am describing is specific yet common.

[sleek sky]

so the reason boats are special is because boats are important for transportation when nothing else is?

[chrome badge]

What?

I guess I wrote that out for nothing 😭

[sleek sky]

im asking, is the reason you cant deconstruct boats is because it would be too easy to accidentally destroy it, have the stuff sink, and then you are stranded

[chrome badge]

Even just accidentally deconstruct is enough of an annoyance

The risk of being stranded isn't massive as you're near shore.

[sleek sky]

i guess if thats not the reason then i dont really understand why boats are special

[chrome badge]

That's fine, you don't have to understand every little thing. I am just glad the developers made that a thing.

[sleek sky]

i guess in the grand scheme of things its not the biggest qol problem the game has. far, far from it

[chrome badge]

It's not a problem, it is a QoL...

[sleek sky]

well, "problem"

[chrome badge]

Having to rebuild your boat after trying to quickly repair it is a problem.

[sleek sky]

i guess quirk is a better word

oh i see. its because of repairing

no no that makes total sense

i can defo see how easy itd be to accidentally break it instead of repair

[light moat]

Yeah, the reason boats are special is because of their use cases and materials. Deconstructing it would likely lead to losing materials, and if there’s anything in the storage capacity that would be a bit of pain to recollect as well 🤔

[sleek sky]

the real strat is build bridges everywhere so you dont have to worry about boats

really gonna put those rockys to use with how much stone you will need

[paper marsh]

The real (viable) strat is to use fins of destiny so you dont have to worry about boats

[sleek sky]

if i could swim across an ocean in 60 seconds i would

[paper marsh]

Why 60 seconds?

[sleek sky]

doesnt the fins of destiny only last 60 seconds?

[paper marsh]

120

And you can pop boss power once it runs out to re-activate

[sleek sky]

which boss power?

[paper marsh]

Any. Activating boss power gives 10 adrenaline, which procs fins

Eikthyr is nice tho bc it means no stamina drain while swimming if fins are active too

[sleek sky]

oh i see. for some reason i thought fins was higher than 10

even with the 50% swim speed isnt it still slower than a boat with tailwind?

[paper marsh]

Probably. I don't imagine its by a huge amount tho, and you're saving a lot of time on going to base, picking up a boat, building the boat, breaking down the boat

But yeah fins are mostly nice for shorter distances. If you wanna go on a 30 minute sea trip bring a boat

[sleek sky]

so theoretically you could every 20 minutes chain 4 minutes of the proc?

i think ill try the fins on my next playthrough, was unaware they only cost 10

[paper marsh]

You do move fairly fast too. Genuinely good to escape swamp or mistlands enemies by just jumping in the ocean

[sleek sky]

serpent trohpy not totally useless lmao

[paper marsh]

I make it a priority to get lol

[sleek sky]

i can see why

how does the 80% stamina stack with 60% from eikthyr?

[paper marsh]

Most the other trinkets are pretty useless 90+% of the time due to high adrenaline cost, and having an easy get-out-of-jail-free card on my permadeath runs is nice

[paper marsh]

zero stamina drain while swimming

[sleek sky]

oh so its additive?

[paper marsh]

idk, but it definitely does stack

[silk token]

i mean the boat is in the middle of the ocean and you or your friend press their deconstruct hotkey and the boat deconstructs. or you’re at your dock and try to repair oops you deconstruct and lose all the nails/hides.

[obtuse whale]

Guys opinion of towershilds

[dark coyote]

why would someone have their hammer out in the middle of the ocean?

no "friend" of mine would ignore nautical safety

[thin elbow]

How would you place a workbench in the middle of the ocean

[silk token]

used to be an interesting combat choice because blocking with then cost less stamina than parrying, actually useful when overwhelmed in ashlands for example. now they’re only a shield for people who cant time a parry

[merry pebble]

I personally dont like them much, but i know of people who are very good at making them work 🙂
So it would be best to try them for yourself and decide if the lack of parry and slower movement matters to you 😄

[thin elbow]

Serpent shield underrated for harder difficulties, other than that meh

The pierce reduction stacks with root harnesk so pretty nice

[silk token]

haha ok good point, so its for when your boat is at your dock or whatever idontknow, probably something to do with how they’re coded but im glad people cant just deconstruct a boat on accident either

[obtuse whale]

I usually only use buclers but they seem interesting choice for more melee based style and bossfights

[thin elbow]

Yeah I’d agree with not adding an instant deconstruct to boats 👍

[silk token]

they handle bosses great, but not as well as just parrying with a buckler as parrying has higher block armor and doesnt cost stamina nor does it stop your stamina regeneration.

literally towers are only because you cant parry. they used to be an option because parry used to cost like 2-3 times the stamina as blocking

[obtuse whale]

Does parrybonus apply to bosses even tho they dont stagger

[silk token]

also you get 5 adrenaline from a parry instead of 2 from a tower shield block

[silk token]

yes

[obtuse whale]

Okay

[silk token]

literally bucklers are just better in every single way if you can parry well

but tiny shoutout to scale tower shield. idk. idk which type of shield needs a big buff or nerf but currently ya. ive already screamed my screams during cta beta

[steel forge]

We need a black metal buckler or something in between iron and carapace.

[burnt glen]

I think the progression is already pretty nice with those.

[silk token]

i like the look of roundshields so much more im glad i dont have to choose to not make a buckler for asthetics like i do when i make a banded shield XD

[steel forge]

Guess maybe block skill needs to be higher or something cause stagger seems to be a problem with iron buckler post mountain especially on hard combat.

[reef juniper]

Is there a reason why the devs haven't done many QoL updates?

[burnt glen]

You can parry the basic enemies and attacks with the iron buckler in Mistlands so there's really no need for another.

The seekers and soldiers do around 100 damage, and the buckler can block from 70-100 (iirc) so it's pretty decent for starting out in there.

[silk token]

yeah, enemies really ramp up in plains and onward, tough to get the max hp threshhold on hard.

[thin elbow]

I’m used to very hard difficulty where parrying is usually a stagger death sentence

[silk token]

ya very hard is dumb i like the combat mechanics of the game

[steel forge]

My brain might just be pulling memories of trying to parry starred enemies as well. We always remember what frustrates us more I guess.

[silk token]

hehe true, can always check the blocking breakpoints sheet to see what hp youd need

[sleek sky]

Personally i want more weapon, shielf, anf armor variants not cuz i need them but cuz i like farming that stuff every biome

Techinicallyi dont need a silver buckler. But it would make brain happy to farm one

[nimble adder]

is it rare to have 2 ice dungeons and a howling cavern in one mountain?

i heard the dungeons are pretty rare

[regal cave]

Nope u can have more

[merry pebble]

You can have 5 or more on one mountain with no problem 🙂

[nimble adder]

are the howling caverns like post mountains stuff or can we try it before? heard these locations are quite hard

[merry pebble]

They are balanced for mountains gear 🙂

[oak river]

Lack of qol is intentional

It also depends on what you consider qol

Like we did get quick stacking for chests and the ability to make 5x of any crafting recipes

And they made combat easier on slopes

[dark coyote]

"easier" they fixed it

[oak river]

But stuff like quick stacking to all chests around you, or auto harvesting, etc we won't get. I think devs said they won't add those kinds of things because they hurt immersion

[sleek sky]

Im willing to hurt my immersion with mods, but thats what the mods are for

[oak river]

A qol I think we might get is some form of extra inventory space. The devs made a post on Twitter or something asking about how we'd like to help with inventory management. So we could potentially end up with some kind of armor slots or pouches or quivers etc.

[oak river]

Weirdly I have no interest in qol mods for valheim. I enjoy doing everything manually

[sleek sky]

Imo it wouldnt be too crazy to me to add craftable backpacks or pouches. Could even just copy minecraft bundles

[oak river]

I use qol mods for other games but I like the vibes of doing chores at my cozy home in valheim

[sleek sky]

Well there are different levels of qol mods

[oak river]

I think we'll probably get pouches, I think one time a dev might have said backpacks don't fit the visual style

If you've played core keeper before that's a game with a good pouch system

You get pouches specialized for specific items

Or if the devs just add armor and trinket slots that'd clear up tons of room on its own

[reef juniper]

That's not even what I'm talking about though

[sleek sky]

Theres stuff like less move speed armor penalty, then theres like auto fuel smelters and auto pickup chests

[reef juniper]

I don't mean QoL like huge overhauls to the base game or ways to simplify the purposefully tedious

I mean like, adding more world modifiers for people to customize their experience better without innately needing mods. Like disabling water damage to buildings, making it so you can dodge without needing to hold block / crouch, removing the need for constructions to supported to be stable

Or idk making it so you don't need a mid-late game construction just to actually delete items

[dark coyote]

bronze chests

better mist

dual torches

[pliant hatch]

You mean, basically removing everything that makes this game unique compared to other games.

I doubt that's going to be added as a modifier.

[oak river]

World modifiers are already pretty new. I don't think they'll be expanded on much though. Trashing items is probably like that on purpose cuz just deleting it in your inventory doesn't feel immersive, dodge rolling probably won't be changed, it makes sense you'd have to be in a combat stance to do it. I doubt mist will be changed.

A lot of these things people have asked about and been told by devs that they specifically won't be changed

[sleek sky]

Id like flametal chests

[dark coyote]

ridable greylings

[sleek sky]

Wisplight should be double range then its fine

[oak river]

I like the mist as is

[reef juniper]

Gonna be honest all I'm seeing is people who don't care for game improvement over their ideal of a hard game

[dark coyote]

||you can spawn the big ones actually||

[reef juniper]

Literally saying optional world modifiers are bad

For some of the most complained about aspects of the game

[dark coyote]

well whats wrong with people wanting a hard game? Can't they have their games too?

[reef juniper]

The same exact thing can be said about wanting a game with less abysmal aspects

I'm not asking for easier difficulty

[dark coyote]

but those exist already

[reef juniper]

Just like other games with harder difficulty modifiers exist

I super don't see your point

[dark coyote]

thats the problem

[reef juniper]

This game can be intended as harder / more difficult at a base level

But why advocate for never adding more options for those who like the game, but don't want that part

[oak river]

Modifiers aren't inherently bad but it's a small dev team and they've said they'd rather spend their time on making their own ideal game

[reef juniper]

There isn't a point to see, there's just an incorrect opinion 💀

[reef juniper]

That's fair but as far as I know, the game has been out for a long while and there hasn't been a lot of change

[oak river]

Because they don't want to spend their time on that stuff

And it's not that hard to mod the game, which is inevitably going to be way more customizable than anything the devs can do anyways

[sleek sky]

Valheim is an interesting community to me because some people want qol stuff (inventory, larger pickup radius, etc), while others are ok gouging their eyes out with spoons. I have no qualms with either, i just find the divide amusing

[dark coyote]

its just a matter of opinion, the devs made the game because they also had opinions about how a game should be, and some people agreed with them, and you have valheim

[oak river]

A lot of games have the best qol from mods.

[reef juniper]

It's definitely an issue when the playerbase has to rely on modding for the game to be enjoyable

[merry pebble]

It very much is enjoyable 🙂 but for those who enjoy it in different way, there are mods

[oak river]

If it's straight up unenjoyable for someone without mods than it's probably not a game for them

[dark coyote]

"I dont enjoy this, I want it changed so that no one else can enjoy it"

[oak river]

I mean if it's a toggle it's not like that

[near furnace]

it's kinda split for no good reason

and we developers don't mind mods at all

[dark coyote]

how do you personally feel about cheat engine?

[near furnace]

no real opinion on it

don't even know what people use it for in valheim

[dark coyote]

not sure anyone does actually, just curious

[oak river]

I've never used it but it doesn't sound much different from just using dev commands to spawn stuff

[near furnace]

I'm more conserned with people downloading virus stuff nowdays.
so make sure to get the mods from a good place

[oak river]

Even good places can get viruses it pretty crazy. Like a month ago a game I play had a virus spreading on the steam workshop

[dark coyote]

yeah npm packages, axios

[regal cave]

Not my dk64 cartridge

[near furnace]

yup. even som small games on steam, turned out to be virus

crazy

[sleek sky]

There arent many base game things id change. I run with many qol and content mods cuz i want to. Doesnt mean i think the game should be how i mod it. The divide is in contrast minecraft for me since minecraft community is relatively similar in wishes and there isnt a big divide. I guess it means you guys did a good job with the game for such big opinions abput it

[near furnace]

after we added the world modifiers, alot people stop downloading mods

something that was to much for some of the team, was the teleport ore. when we play 1000's of hours, having to run boats for 100's of hours was to much 😅

[oak river]

I like sailing ores but I wish it was faster. I think it'd be neat if there were ocean currents that could help carry you faster.

[jolly pagoda]

before the world modifers I'd just world hop metals

[merry pebble]

Unless you really love sailing and the peace which comes with it

[near furnace]

yea. many people did that @jolly pagoda

[jolly pagoda]

yes im well aware

[zealous adder]

just out of curiosity i guess to add onto the conversation a little, do the developers play valheim casually too ontop of developing it and if so what do you guys feel when it comes to the building in the game? personally i love the building system but i dislike the weathering on builds since it discourages building big bases and i mod it out. do you guys feel similarly about it or do you just deal with it and repair your bases every day?

its the biggest point for me that bugs me personally, where is everyone's thoughts on that

[dark coyote]

I love sailing, i would make portals less free honestly, like they require nearby base structures and have a cast time to build

[sleek sky]

I wish you could teleport previous biome stuff after you clear the boss of the biome, but not teleprt current biome stuff. Something in between stone portal tp all and wood tp nothing

[oak river]

That'd be interesting

[ionic finch]

Hello

[jolly pagoda]

yo

[ionic finch]

I love valheim

[sleek sky]

Good

[jolly pagoda]

thats good

[sleek sky]

To me its silly you cant tp bronze in mistlands then you go to ashlands and can tp flametal

But hey, thats what mods are for and you are welcome to disagree with me

[zealous adder]

personally i like the way the game encourages you to use boats through the whole game for travelling, which is why im really glad world modifiers are an option for that kind of thing. me and my friend are doing a no portals playthrough right now and ontop of not needing to farm surtling cores for portals it also just encourages us to build more bases across the map

world modifiers are just wonderful all around

[pliant hatch]

They do. They're the first testers before anything is released.

[paper marsh]

World modifiers were a gamechanger

Nice way to give people what they want without trying to cater to everyone at once and ruining the game

[oak river]

I think sailing would be better if you did it less. I always start playthroughs with the default portal settings but eventually turn them off after I've done tons of boat trips for iron. If landmasses/biomes were larger so you could stay on one landmass for longer I think it'd be more fun

Cuz you wouldn't be doing trips as frequently

[reef juniper]

Which is why I'm so confused that some people are against more modifiers being added to satisfy more casual players. To me, mods are meant to add both things that wouldn't originally be in the game, as well as things that players want that would be reasonable additions, that the devs either won't or just haven't gotten to.

[zealous adder]

i think that comes into world gen options which i would ALSO love greatly, there was a mod on r2 that's now depricated which messed with world generation to make things like a single continent world or several continents, and i've been wanting something like that for a long time now. world gen options would be spectacular for changing up playthroughs

[paper marsh]

I'm also surprised by how hated additional modifiers are. Though I don't think it's entirely unwarranted

Making too many for too niche cases can eat up developer time and clutter the menus

[oak river]

That's exactly what mods are doing in this game. They're adding stuff devs haven't added or won't add

[sleek sky]

I mean my idea is a bit extreme. Could be something as simple as obsideon portal allowing for bronze and iron tp

[oak river]

If the devs added more modifiers I don't think anyone would have a problem with it. But it does take dev time

[paper marsh]

I like the transport, but also like optimizing it where I can so when I beat Elder I like to set up a base right next to a iron and silver rich place, to make transport time like sub 2 minutes

[oak river]

Yeah I like finding a huge swamp with dozens of crypts and making a forge there to loot every crypt and smelt all the metal before boating it home

If worldgen were to be changed I'd also love to change how mountains generate. It'd be so cool if mountains generated in actual mountain ranges

[pliant hatch]

And thus making the game easier or turning away from what the Devs had in mind.
And the latter is actually the reason why the devs won't add some things to the game.

[oak river]

Yeah that's why I think it makes more sense to just let modders make qol features that don't match the devs vision

[pliant hatch]

And with that, resulting in the game becoming too easy.

Like the several magic mods. I've seen how that make the game so easy, the one using it actually had to turn up the difficulty modifier to hard and very hard to have a challenge.
Add to that the mod which let you fly on dragons and all the sudden portals and a boat weren't needed anymore; exploration became a breeze as nothing could attack you and it was even possible to do a boss fight with it, if you played it smart.

At that point you basically remove the entire "survival" aspect of this game.

[oak river]

Has anybody used the setting that lets fire spread everywhere? It sounds like a super cool idea but I'm not sure exactly how it works so I'm worried to try using it in a playthrough

[sleek sky]

Yeah but counterpoint: summoning giant meteor rain that blows up a forest is cool as hell

[dark coyote]

never understood that one, doesn't it only work in the ashlands?

[pliant hatch]

I did. Turns the early game into something in which you need to use your brain while building.

But it also makes fighting a lot easier.

[steel forge]

From what I’ve seen people use it to mostly smack wood stacks with a torch for coal lol

[sleek sky]

Dont give a flying fuck if its unbalanced. Thats what SLS and CLLC are for

[oak river]

It works in Ashland's whether or not the setting is on. The setting just makes it universal to all biomes

But I'm not sure what will start a fire in the other biomes

[pliant hatch]

Simple, the use of fire.

[dark coyote]

I mean the fire hazard only exists in ashlands

[pliant hatch]

No, you can have it in all biomes with turning on a world modifier.

[dark coyote]

oh so it also makes fire rain from the sky like in ashlands?

[oak river]

Yeah but I'm not sure how spreadable it is. Like would a hearth have to be fully surrounded by stone instead of wood

[oak river]

No but you can start fires

[pliant hatch]

No.

It will burn down your house if you have a wooden floor close to a campfire.
It will burn down trees if you hit them with a torch or a fire arrow.
It will burn the ground if that's hit with a fire arrow.
And it will turn the wood stacks into charcoal if you hit those with a torch.

[steel forge]

I think any fire that’s a campfire or larger can set grass and wood structures on fire. I didn’t notice the placed torches starting any fires

[oak river]

So I'd be good to use the tiki torches and sconces

But campfires and anything bigger can't be near wood

[silk token]

its a pretty slow process to burn a structure down, and you can have a hearth with corewood snapped to it and it wont burn it, its not that hard to make a safe place for fire

[oak river]

That sounds fun

[steel forge]

I’m not 100% but we had torches pretty close and nothing started up

[oak river]

Even if it's slow there's no way to stop it when it starts right

[silk token]

its fun to have to think about the fire though, and great for when you need coal in a pinch

[steel forge]

Demolish will stop it

[silk token]

you can deconstruct whats burning

its like… half the speed of minecraft fire spread and destruction

[oak river]

Ah

I might have to try it. It'd be fun to build my base around it

[silk token]

that stuff doesnt play, thats like CRAP GRAB WATER but this is an annoyance

[silk token]

ya try it, it’s fine

[steel forge]

It does add some comedy and realism. One guy forgot he was using fire arrows during a drake raid.

almost burnt the house down

[pliant hatch]

Only "problem", they always seem to happen when you're at your base, but not within visible range of the campfire.
At least, that's what I had. So I had a couple of floor pieces burning down before I figured out how much room I need between a campfire and a wooden floor.

[silk token]

a safe reference is if you put a campfire in the center of 4 floor squares worth of dirt, thats plenty of space

and then hearth for some reason is VERY forgiving. also just out torches like they’re fire not INSIDE your wall and you’ll be fine

[ionic finch]

Is it planned to diversify the fists weapon options?

i would love metal bar tier gauntlet options

[thin elbow]

You want more options than the flesh rippers and vilemauls?

[light moat]

I wouldn’t say there’s any plans to necessarily, but IG has fairly consistently added new weapons to the game here and there. Fist weapon being a more recent addition

[ionic finch]

there arent so many blunt fists options

Sweet

[paper marsh]

There’s 1 blunt 2.3 slash and 0.7 pierce - ish options

More an issue of there not being a lot of fist options than there not being a lot of blunt fist options

[ionic finch]

Yeah theres only like 3 isnt there

[paper marsh]

4

If you count bare fists

[ionic finch]

its a tiny bit outclassed as soon as you make a club or axe...

[jagged wind]

can't find Early Axes and it makes me angry

found already 3 curious axeheads.. but 0 mysterious one....

[sleek sky]

everytime i start a new world, i get perma paranoid if i progresss and dont find a rocky poi. what if i found it and just missed it? then i get no

[last otter]

What’s a rocky poi?

[regal cave]

Something i havent found yet sadly 😔

[last otter]

Why not?

[regal cave]

Cuz I SUCK at valheim. That and just because I couldnt find it

[paper marsh]

Yeah 1% chance per hit

So if you took let’s say 3 hits per ore, then 9% chance

Uhm, no

You hit it once, there’s a 1% chance of it sinking

You hit it twice, there’s two 1% chances of it sinking

You hit it 9 times, there’s 9 1% chances of it sinking

[brave talon]

Has anyone done the mistlands skip?

I’d read about people skipping to mistlands by using a seeker soldier to destroy mats

[light moat]

I think a handful of players have done it 🤔

Heh, reminds me of the time I utilized smalls tress and raspberry bushes in my farm, and it looked perfect. Only for a troll raid to happen the next day and destroy my plants, never to be seen again

[burnt glen]

Sounds more like skipping the queen rather than the Mistlands

[brave talon]

Yeah it’s skipping to mistlands, not skipping it

[silk token]

oh. good. then i could enjoy mistlands SOONER......

[brave talon]

It would save a lot of time if you pulled it off

[burnt glen]

oh, by not killing yagluth?

You could totally make frostner with an iron mace and do well directly in mistlands

[brave talon]

Or anything previous? Presumably you’d just kill Eikthyr.

[burnt glen]

Oh wow

[brave talon]

Get bronze for nails, get a ship, find a mistlands area, use a Soldier to get iron and copper

[silk token]

so you use a soldier to break the aquaducts for copper/iron? and you get surtling cores from what the dwarf wards?

[brave talon]

Break the scrap too mostly id think. Plus marble.

[brave talon]

Probably? Or lanterns, maybe?

[silk token]

so then you dont have black metal for sap extractor, you dont make any refined eityr items?

[brave talon]

Yeah I’m trying to figure out the progression from there

[silk token]

this sounds worse and worse the more i think about it. id rather just play the game than dodge roll the same mob for hours

[brave talon]

I guess you’d get iron armor, Krom

[brave talon]

Yeah I was considering it but

[paper marsh]

You forgot to set up ballistas and keep watch

[silk token]

imo playing the game and having fun is a better strategy because i get to have fun i dont understand these weird skips

[paper marsh]

If you’re intent on not following normal progression why even kill Eikthyr?

Also I think most following this path try for a reverse boss kill run

It certainly makes things easier, but you don’t need one. They’ll shoot Valkyrie’s without a trophy😉

[regal cave]

That is so sad

[light moat]

Planned the whole farmhouse around a very particular formation of plants

[brave talon]

Wait do ballistas shoot their owners

[paper marsh]

Yup. They target anything

You can interact with a trophy on them to only make them target that one thing though

[brave talon]

That’s kinda dumb

[lofty kiln]

So like, turns out when you actually make poison resistance pots BM is easy lol

[paper marsh]

Just to avoid them from being OP and make them a bit more engaging I think

[uncut jasper]

can summoned troll no longer break center room's wall in charred fortress? remembered they can 1 year ago

nvm they still can lol

[regal cave]

TIL

[paper marsh]

I like brooch

[sweet pagoda]

Is there an easy way to find the black forest merchant?

Also, me and my friend have been wondering while we were playing together, is there some kind of mount like a horse in this game? Something that would make on-foot travel quicker

[tepid prawn]

Sort of yes there is rideable mounts but they are a bit wonky, 5th and 7th biome you get the 2 types

[sweet pagoda]

I see, and what about finding the merchant? Do I just need to look aimlessly?

[tepid prawn]

If you are a little lucky look for lots of different Elder boss vegvisirs far from each other on the map, they will point you to a black forest and reasonably often the black forest vendor can be nearby close nough that you might find him travelling to that new elder location

[sweet pagoda]

So does he spawn close to the Elder boss altars? Or is that just to more easily find black forests?

[tepid prawn]

so basically sail quite far from previously found elder, look for vegvisor or dungeon to find a vegvisir pointing you to a new one

[tepid prawn]

its a way to reliably find bigger black forests because elder usually spawns in bigger ones, pure statistics there is a higher chance to find him there, and you are guaranteed the elder spawn is in forest you're not just blind looking

also spread out a bit maybe quite a bit of sailing in each cardinal direction (east west north south halfway across the map until you find first forest then look for vegvisir there)

[granite grail]

I am so mad. Why am I so good at frikling dying at every fricking thing in this game

[merry pebble]

What happened? 👀

[granite grail]

I've died 3 times to a frikking gyall and it's ticks. I am so mad I can't stay alive five minutes no matter what I'm doing apparently

[mild mason]

Hmm, do you drink Barley Wine for the fire resistance? Another tip would be to either shield the tick jumps, or roll-dodge once they attach to you

[merry pebble]

Aye, gjalls can be a problem. What weapons are you using?

[granite grail]

Yes I do

And it takes me three-four tries doing the key, mouse, space combination to actually dodge roll

So it takes forever to get them off

It's dead now. I'm just trying to relax and this is only making me angry 😭🤦

[mild mason]

Try holding down right-click and pressing space-bar while doing so, that should dodge backwards towards your camera, by default (or maybe forwards, I can't remember)
And yeah... I understand.
Gjall's can be traversed around, and are weak to pierce damage on their underbelly

[merry pebble]

It can be just block button and space 😄

[strange cradle]

Yeah, that's what I use. Right-click mouse and control (I use control for jump). And even I can pull it off relatively quickly, even though I absolutely suck at dodge-rolling.

I think it's actually mostly the ticks players die to, not the Gjall, because they can't get them off in time, or simply don't know that you can get them off by dodge-rolling.

I, personally, just start whacking them when they are coming close.

[spark plover]

I like using an atgeir for ticks

[merry pebble]

Yep, its secondary is great for them 🙂

[granite grail]

I have 50+ askvin eggs.......tomorrow I hatch them by the fortress and then we storm it >:)

[gaunt scroll]

hi, i am the new one in this game, maybe someone want to play together? I speak Englisch Russian Germany languages

[spark plover]

try #1024264966712340510

[sage shadow]

are there any vanilla-like scythe weapon mods?
im curious

[ivory patio]

will the game get some big update in next time?

cause im thinking to buy this game but i kinda dont wanna play the game if its only half done,

[dim python]

it is much more than half done.

it might be almost finished

i think this a great time to play, get some hours in before the big upcoming deep north drop and the whole game changes

then you can do it again!

[ivory patio]

like what do u mean by "the whole game changes

[dim python]

i'll let someone who knows more about it say it, i'm not confident.

[ivory patio]

like a full rework of how progression works or jsut some quality of life/ui improvements ?

[dim python]

but deep north will mostly be a new biome, but also an availability of the game on a wide variety of platforms

[dim python]

definitely not the former, something like the latter

i'm expecting a lot of small combat reworks personally

but like i said other people have a better idea of what's coming than me and they should be the ones who talk to you

[ivory patio]

i see#

still ty for helping a bit :D

[astral sedge]

Valheim is over half way done. Deep North will be the release of 1.0 and the game coming out of early access. Release date is unknown rn.

[ivory patio]

alr i bought it

10 bucks isnt even that much

[dim python]

also try Grounded

[ivory patio]

i did

loved it

[dim python]

nice

that's on my to-get once i deposit my checks

[ivory patio]

waiting for sure 1-2 years till they get grounded 2 out of eary access

grounded is really fun, for some reason i really enjoyed speedrunning it

as a soulsborne fan, once you know the attack patterns it u feel invincible in that game xD

but im looking forward to the valheim experience

[tacit crystal]

Deep North biome will be added, game moves out of Early Access and gets achievements and proper ending, we don't know if there will be anything new added in earlier biomes but that's always possibility.

[near furnace]

yes. next big update is 1.0

[gaunt scroll]

thx

[modern whale]

do you know when we can expect it more or less?

[lone rampart]

That information has not been made publicly available

[summer hinge]

All that's been officially stated is it'll be released when it's ready.

[modern whale]

It's a shame, my friends and I can't wait to play again and get all the achievements

[paper marsh]

Well I hope the wait will be worth it for you

[summer hinge]

I like the when it's ready statement vs setting a date and then realizing "shit, we ain't gonna make it"

[modern whale]

Me too

[summer hinge]

Doing it like they are allows them to make it their best release yet

[paper marsh]

GTA will release when it's ready 😄

Sadly that time is not easily estimable but they wanted to give release dates anyways

[summer hinge]

GTA is a prime example tbh. They set dates and failed to make them. Not a good look.

By not setting dates but stating that they're actively working on it keeps attention while avoiding false hope by possibly missing a due date

[dim python]

is there a good reason to bring a pierce damage weapon into the swamp?

considering leaving my ancient bark spear and iron atgeir at home

[merry pebble]

Pierce isnt as good as other dmg types in swamps really. So if you have other options you can use those with ní worries. 😄

[near furnace]

Yes. But I ain't tellin' 😅

[modern whale]

haha unlucky

[soft path]

All we have to go on is “2026 Will be a big year for Valheim” and we’ll be kept updated “in the months to come” so definitely don’t expect anything soon. A part of me wants it released as soon as it’s ready, but another part of me wants them to wait until winter to drop the Deep North if they complete it around summer.

But yeah, we don’t know.

[lone rampart]

What better way to cool off in the summer months though than a refreshing foray into the deep north?

[fading ingot]

Come on Smiffe,
I won`t tell anyone. I swear xD

[modern whale]

Exactly

[warm sphinx]

I will tell, so tell everyone except me

[paper marsh]

Hmm, idk, seems like a silly way to favoritize certain players by intentionally waiting until winter

Drop it in winter and everyone who started a new world for Deep North will be venturing into Deep north in Spring / Summer

[regal cave]

#memes-and-clips message i found a way to transport neck pets

[silk token]

they have less carry weight when they’re fried

[dim python]

unfortunately they're not tameable so i can't put Kermit the Neck next to Mrs. Piggy without one of them dying

[paper marsh]

You can, you just have to not tame either of them

Without silly players teaching them aggression, they're quite friendly with one another

[foggy glacier]

Sounds like a normal day for those two.

[dim python]

hiiiiiiiiiiiiya!

(insert gif of neck flying into the distance)

[foggy glacier]

I must say though, TIL you can transport mobs in a cart. How did you get him in there?

[amber gale]

Summers in the deep north, winters in the ashlands 😂

[sterile dagger]

Is the -50% off a sign? Get some players before Deep North?

[regal cave]

Thats a great question. I saw a neck near my cart, ignored it, then my friend said oh you're bringing me a neck?

[regal cave]

I think he was just on some elevation when he charged me

[tacit crystal]

No indications of that, it just happens to be Medieval fest on Steam which seemingly included Valheim.

[merry pebble]

Considering how often Valheim is on sale, very much doubtful 😄

[pliant hatch]

How do you transport mobs in a cart?
Using mods?

Because the only thing I can transport in Vanilla Valheim are all the normal resources. Although those do include Asksvin Eggs.

[foggy glacier]

He seemed to be riding on the cart. Don’t think it was mods

[regal cave]

Pure vanilla

[regal cave]

Be at lower elevation than the mob charging at you

[paper marsh]

I've been wanting to use carts for a while for transporting dvergr

Never actually gone and done it tho

If I could manage to get a 2 star ice mage to defend my Ashlands base that would be rad

[vivid yoke]

i was hoping to get more info about the last biome in the discord but it seems theres no real ETA on it.

i miss Valheim

[paper marsh]

I mean there's definitely some info scattered about, especially in #news and they give updates on it once in a while

But nothing super ETA related

[vivid yoke]

yeah thats the thing, because i wouldnt mind playing it through again, but i dont want to be in the middle of a playthrough when they release the Deep North

[paper marsh]

I suppose it depends how fast you play. If they haven't given a release date yet I'd imagine it might be at least a few months out

I'm waiting to start a new playthrough when the update drops, so I can see anything new that may (or may not) be added to previous biomes, and naturally progress through achievements

[vivid yoke]

Makes sense yeah

[swift trail]

Buddy and I built our first moat, is there a way to have it and not destroy the bridge every time we have enemies come by? Is there a better method I’m missing?

[thin elbow]

if you leave a small gap in your bridge, enemies cant cross it into your base

[silk token]

probly like in the same way we can ride on a bear or a cart can ride on a boat.

[paper marsh]

Unlikely, but also asking for that is against this servers rules

[regal cave]

step 1 break ward step 2 break bottom of spiral staircase step 3 put cart under stair step 4 push dawrf step 5 transport step 6 profit

[paper marsh]

Would have to get him on a boat too tho

Never transported mobs on boats but I hear they randomly die when you go over waves

Would prob be easier to put one in a mistlands base

[regal cave]

They do get hurt by I believe the sail if you turn too hard, they will also aggro on serpents and try to swim close

The good news is you can hurt them with a boat and they wont aggro. You can run them over in the water.

[ivory patio]

ok first 2 hours in the game and i need to say, the atmosphere is very very good

i just have some like stuttters while running in a direction i havenmt explored yet, nothing gamebraeaking but somewhat slighty irritating, any ideas on how to solve it if even?

i guess its just the loading of the new place, but im just not sure if its a pc issue on my side or something i can fix

[paper marsh]

Sounds like an issue on your side, I haven't encountered that issue.

Unless it's a minimal microstutter type of thing I don't notice

[neon magnet]

About what level of PC hardware are we talking about here?

[rain flare]

That or they fall out of the boat and then what 🙈

[glad night]

I don’t think so, as the quick move, ctrl, just throws things out of your inventory

[sage shadow]

ye ik that
sad we don't have quick move

[merry pebble]

Nope, you drag things to it, but if you have empty spaces in hotbar then gear pieces generally jump there when you click them over from chest or pick them up from the ground 🙂

Finally finished transporting my boatload of iron back home, now I face the daunting task of figuring out how to completely upgrade and overhaul my base

Man I wish I was better at designing buildings

[near furnace]

not afaik

[hazy cypress]

other than crypts, is there anywhere else to get a decent amount of Iron?

[pulsar mortar]

Mistlands

[hazy cypress]

That is...incredibly unhelpful. LOL

[paper marsh]

It's the best and most honest answer there is

[hazy cypress]

Wasn't there a thing you could break down and get some iron?

[tacit crystal]

Sealed towers can net good amount of iron when you break the cages.

[paper marsh]

All other forms of getting iron are probably gonna be slower than crypts

[hazy cypress]

My issue is FINDING the crypts. 😢

[tired path]

You can also run around the Swamps with a Wishbone and hope to find more Iron slop under the ground

[regal cave]

Just sail around until you find them on the coast

[hazy cypress]

That would require me to get the wishbone first.

[tacit crystal]

There are minable source for iron (and copper), but certain structures contain iron building pieces that drop iron when you break/dismantle them.

[paper marsh]

I mean if you only need like 2 iron or something there's plenty of ways to get it. Kill oozers, find scrap piles outside of crypts, fishing can even give it

But if you want more than that, your best bet is continunig to sail around and try to spot some crypts

[hazy cypress]

I've found 3 or 4 swamps so far and only one of them had a crypt.

I'm gonna blame my seed.

[paper marsh]

Ye sometimes luck is against you, just keep looking

At some point you'll probably find a swamp with like 10 crypts and you'll be set

For me the key is just to not spend much time at each swamp. I just sail by and see if I spot any crypt torches (or turnips). If not, I keep moving

[hazy cypress]

Here's to hoping. I want to get the Iron Axe and the Stone cutter, as well as cooking and forging upgrades.

At the same time, I kinda want to farm bloodbags, entrails, etc. for food and potions.

[regal cave]

If youre going to do that and you have a decent size swamp im kind of a fan of cheesing for iron outside if you already have the key. Take your stag breaker to the swamp, look up what to do from there, and this method yields a lot of rewards other than iron since you spend a lot of time there

[hazy cypress]

Still haven't built the Stagbreaker. It looks very slow, and I'm a run and gun kinda guy.

Is there any benefit to playing on Vulkan?

[real ridge]

will an orange building block eventually fall?

[dark coyote]

no

[regal cave]

Its not for enemies in this circumstance

[hazy cypress]

Hmm...I might look into it.

[dark coyote]

there is one enemy I use mauls on

[real ridge]

cool ty

[final gulch]

is there a server i could join?

[paper marsh]

Who, Bonemass?

Hmm gotta agree with Vince. Stagbreaker is slow and heavy. And I'd add low damage and sometimes unavoidably cheesy

Not my style

[regal cave]

We are looking for iron not fighting
