Give him a hat

[lunar sapphire]

Celebratory cap given

Still sadge

[regal cave]

Maybe tomorrow hell wake up on another side of the bed

[lunar sapphire]

I slept. Still sadge

[regal cave]

Then he def needs a friend

[pale laurel]

hi

[supple dew]

kvast is a broom

[dim python]

in which language?

[frozen void]

Swedish(and norwegian)

But many things in valheim are just named after swedish things

[supple dew]

then add that "ur" ending for some norse larp

[cerulean star]

So I recently landed in Ashlands and start exploring. I see a charred warrior after fighting a few twitchers and marskman. Okay this guy hits a bit harder. Then I run into a 1 star warrior. After trying to take a hit, I retreated to a rock and shot him with my bow instead. A bit further on and I run into a 2 star. Unequipped my chest, weapon and shield, and let my fenris leggings prove their worth as I noped straight out of there.

[tacit crystal]

You have nice instincts.

[vivid yoke]

have the devs fixed the whole "excavate all ground around the ore and it will break in one hit" thing?

[merry pebble]

No, why would they 😄

[vivid yoke]

well i have a massive chunk of copper floating lmao

[tacit crystal]

They will collapse when you mine chunks around them.

[lunar sapphire]

Part of it is still connected to the ground or a surrounding wall

[merry pebble]

Yeah, copper was always bit hard to do this with. Its invisible hitboxes are quite large so it might still be supported by walls or tree or something like that

[lunar sapphire]

even if it doesn't look it

[vivid yoke]

I GOT KILLED BY A FUCKING HUMONGOUS BEAR WHAT

[frozen void]

I have come to realize that morgens are actually my friends. I just need to high five them(parry) or dance with them(dodge) as they wave(attack) me and they'll kill anyone who bothers me.

[vivid yoke]

SINCE WHEN ARE THERE BEARS

[frozen void]

Last year

[merry pebble]

Since autumn last year 😄

[tacit crystal]

I was just going to ask if you had encountered any new content.

[vivid yoke]

HOLY THAT BEAR IS A MONSTER

[tacit crystal]

Bears were added in last September (Combat update).

[vivid yoke]

thats pretty sick, honestly not even mad

[tacit crystal]

They're pretty neat, yeah.

[lunar sapphire]

-# And thankfully somewhat deaf

[tacit crystal]

Try kill one and get surprised.

[granite grail]

this is how I feel about valkyries lol

[vivid yoke]

bruh he doesnt take damage wtf

[tacit crystal]

You need trying other weapons maybe.

[granite grail]

try 🔥

[frozen void]

Those too. Asksvin too to a degree

[lunar sapphire]

Why do I get the feeling you've come across a 1 star bear on your first encounter

[silk token]

bears are the new intermediate parry and melee tutorial

[tacit crystal]

Ah yeah, was it 1 star?

[granite grail]

They have an insanely high health pool. I will always take a troll over a bear early game lol

[silk token]

no they just resist pierce

[dim python]

i'm the reverse

[merry pebble]

And blunt
-# +frost, but non consequential at taht point in game

[dim python]

hit him with your axe

or a knife

[granite grail]

they still have a lot of health lol it's just a fact

[silk token]

imean like a LITTLE more health, but not that significant, they just dont have a vulnerability

[merry pebble]

-# Fire

[granite grail]

I feel so bad for you I have never once had trouble with trolls xD

[silk token]

well yeah, fire, but. ugh. but parry them.

[merry pebble]

one third of trolls hp is quite significant boost 🤔

[dim python]

i feel bad for you for not having fun fighting bears 😤

[silk token]

eh. if they were pierce vulnerable nobody would mention their hp

[merry pebble]

Will not argue that 😄

[dim python]

i guess that makes upgraded knives a middle ground between trolls and bears

[granite grail]

at the start of my play through I dug a bear pit lined with campfires at the bottom to deal with this one evil bear....it took me like six deaths, and 2 in game days, but I finally got the bear in the pit and killed it 😂 It's just more trouble then it's worth. And you very, very quickly outpace anything useful from them

[dim python]

🤔

[vivid yoke]

no it was a normal one lmao

[silk token]

whaaat??? bear armor and claws are awesome wym??

[dim python]

dude

i might start a new playthrough just to prove they're not that hard

[silk token]

my first bear went oh hi new mob, parry whack whack cool not bad-OW ok bite does a lot, kite heal kite heal, wait for swipe ok parry whack whack. i was never moved to dig a giant hole and put fires in it

and i was full meadows gear

[dim python]

bear dodging is so much fun...

and then anticipating the bites...

if a bear goes still gtfo

[vivid yoke]

ok so SINCE WHEN DO YOU GET INVADED BEFORE THE SNOW BIOME

[merry pebble]

Since forever pretty much 😄

[granite grail]

I don't craft bear armor I don't care for it lol. I've crafted the claws once, they're nice. But after swamp there's no use for them, personally. I just try to avoid bears after that point so I don't have to kill them for no reason lol

[merry pebble]

Raids are possible even before first boss is killed 🙂

[granite grail]

the army of necks and greylings.....

[tacit crystal]

Certain raids can happen even during early game. Mostly boss army raids.

[merry pebble]

-# Boars 😄 greylings come with greydwarf raid

[pliant hatch]

Technically you can from the moment you start the game and plop down 3 base items.

[silk token]

i still want my “sticky paws hungry jaws” raid that triggers if you have a beehive

[vivid yoke]

alot has changed since may 2024

[granite grail]

oh I've only gotten the raid once I had no idea boars were part of it 😂

[merry pebble]

The raids have been like that since 2021 iirc

[silk token]

its why i love high raids because its a great boon of boar hide early

[vivid yoke]

i swear the last time i played this the first raid was wolves in the snow biomke

[merry pebble]

I am certain that is not the case 🙂 you were just lucky

[vivid yoke]

ok that must be it then

[tacit crystal]

Rng did giveth back then.

[tribal trench]

My cousin and I are headed yet again to the 2nd boss!!! Monster Viking Berry in hand raised to the sky, and 😈 chanting war hymns!! I love the early game just as much as the late game.

[dull warren]

Uh oh... day 666

[jolly pagoda]

I hit day 100 in my world yesterday

No sleep

[pastel plover]

hi! do you have any official/unofficial estimation for the next update? Also maybe you know if the next update will be the last one?
thank you!

[merry pebble]

Only info we have is "DN will come when its ready." 😄
And it will be the last "big" content update as far as we know, after that only smaller patches and fixes will come. 🙂

[pastel plover]

alr, thanks

[cursive ivy]

anyone have an idea on when the deep north update will come ? because i want to start a fresh start with my friend on that patch so we dont bypass anything

[tacit crystal]

Check 2 messages above.

[solar solstice]

New day new world

[fossil garnet]

are traders rare to spawn?

[tacit crystal]

Not that they are rare, but each trader have 10 possible spawn points around the world map, first one found within the player proximity area will lock that trader in that spawn point and disable others for good.
Each trader also have specific biomes and distance from center where they may have their spawn points.

[fossil garnet]

this game gets grindier as i progress thru it

[dull warren]

It's a great game but yeah it's... grindy

[tacit crystal]

Grind can be adjusted with world modifier options.

[dull warren]

That's the easiest way, just turn up the resource multiplier

I normally don't but from time to time I'm just kinda sick of grinding out more iron or wood

[granite grail]

But the grindiness is fun long as your not hunting hares

[tacit crystal]

Hares are not as bad honestly.

I like to chase them with knife or Early axes.

[dull warren]

LOL I just cut down two hundred trees on default settings for wood to build a new base with, that was... yeah, grindy

[prime moth]

grindy indeed but that also is rewarding in its own right

[dull warren]

not imho

But hey, it's not my game, it's theirs

[prime moth]

it took me many hours of playing to agree with the rates but i dont think id change em much anymore

also at a certain point in the game wood becomes very trivial via a certain tool

[dull warren]

There's better ways to make "get more iron" more rewarding without simply making it take a long time

[glad night]

force hire the trolls to knock them down for you

[dull warren]

That does change things, to be fair

[prime moth]

as soon as i started intentionally farming trees it felt way less annoying

[dull warren]

Yeah that helps, at least with wood, there's ways to set it up to make it quicker

[prime moth]

iron will forever be the meme resource lol. Speaking as one who needed to collect more only yesterday 😭

[dull warren]

Yep that's probably the resource I turn on the multipliers the most for

[prime moth]

these days just sailing around gathing it in carts and heading back home with like 10 stacks isnt too bad though

now i have plains gear i can stay up through nights and just keep sailing and grinding for iron

a big part of it is just luck i think. some swamps are mega charged with iron

[dull warren]

Yes, but my point is, I don't think it should take multiple hours IRL for ten stacks of iron. It's just endless hours of smashing scrap piles.

[frozen void]

I have a hill with raised earth walls that i have planted trees on, it nets me 10k-ish wood

[dull warren]

Well unless at some point something unlocks to make it quicker somehow

Black metal is nice, they came up with a way to get that into the game without so much grinding

[frozen void]

If you have a swamp with many crypts, place a portal on top, run through, mine all, portal everything but iron home. Drag cart with iron to next crypt and repeat

[dull warren]

Yes that's how I do it, and I still think it just takes too long

But again to be fair, there's a resource multiplier if it bothers me that much

[sharp bluff]

i usually set up a forward base for the shipping and a portal next to the crypt
first all iron to the crypt base, then to the temporary harbour

[frozen void]

Yeah

Tbh i always think its so funny people complain about the sailing of the iron, cause unless youre being very inefficient iyll be the quickest part

[dull warren]

It's mostly a hassle when you just need another stack or two. It's not so bad when you make "gather iron" a whole mission.

And yeah it's not so much the sailing of it, it's the mining

[indigo socket]

Any you fine folks want to drop some screen shots over in #screenshots of your taming builds? I learned the hard way that fences suck because the greydwarfs just kill them through the fences. All my 1 star boars dead (have yet to find a 2 star) I think I am going to do a big barn set up. Looking for some inspiration!

[chrome badge]

People always complain about the sailing, not the mining. You can theoretically get majority of your iron from crypt chests anyways.

[fossil garnet]

whats crypto chest

[frozen void]

I have small pens/shacks inside my base that is surrounded by a moat and wall

[chrome badge]

That's my phone thinking it knows what I want. 😂

[indigo socket]

Ooooo a mote! thats a good idea!

[frozen void]

Oh i thought it was a legit crypto mining joke

[chrome badge]

Do you not have a walled in base?

[fossil garnet]

wait u can tame animals? wth?

[frozen void]

Lmao

[chrome badge]

Yes, from the very first biome

[indigo socket]

Well I have many bases - or outposts I guess. No. Just beat the elder but no raids. Hmmm. Come to think of it I wonder why ive gotten no raids yet? Better check the settings.

[frozen void]

You can tame 4 animals(and one more can be gotten tamed)

[indigo socket]

I dont recall ever turning raids off (if you even can?)

[chrome badge]

You can but they're on by default.

[indigo socket]

hmmm.

[chrome badge]

It's possible to have them not happen by chance though.

[indigo socket]

still Hmmm.

Ive not had a reason to really build walls yet. .... except the damn bears that kept respawning one right after the other at one of my outposts. But I abandoned it.

[fossil garnet]

raids are easy at least for now for me im at iron age idk about late game

[chrome badge]

You've complained about boars being attacked here twice though, you want more reason than that? 😅

If greydwarves are touching your things, time to utilize walls.

[indigo socket]

"complained" is a stretch. I just want to see what others have done. One person said they built like a barn. Would love to see some examples.

[fossil garnet]

damn annoying creatures

[granite grail]

I have a completely sealed henhouse lol

[chrome badge]

A complaint isn't a negative thing, it's just what you're doing when you mention fences not working or boars dying to enemies.

[indigo socket]

Im thinking semi open barn with spikes around it. I dont really like the spikes because in another game Im used to jumping over them and not taking damage.

[chrome badge]

Flying enemies will giggle at the semi open barn.

[fossil garnet]

are spikes worth it? i do have stone walls around base

[indigo socket]

lol

[granite grail]

no

[chrome badge]

I use them and I would say so, but I am also quick to defend.

[indigo socket]

If you go too big of an open area (surrounded by walls) are you at risk of things spawning inside? IE do you know how big you can go?

[chrome badge]

Spawn proofing is a thing.

[granite grail]

Nevertheless, it feels insulting to say someone is complaining when asking for help. Be mindful of word choice lol

[chrome badge]

Feel however you like it isn't inherently insulting to use words as they're intended.

[indigo socket]

Is surrounding an area with a wall enough to spawn proof an area?

I was hoping there were totems of sorts but the only one I see is for multiplayer.

[granite grail]

Well..... "no u" is not intended to be insulting either 😉

[chrome badge]

No, there's tooltips when the game loads that says many base objects provide spawnproofing.

[chrome badge]

It was insulting, the context there was quite different.

[fossil garnet]

i have preatty big area inside the wall never seen anything spawning inside

[indigo socket]

Ok got it! I will look into more. Clearly I missed it.

I was going off a youtube "Valheim Tips" where it said to set up your boar farm away from your base. But it sounds like to properly defend (maybe after taming?) having things in close proximity might be better tact.

[fossil garnet]

can i tame deathsqitoes ill be undefeated

[frozen void]

Player base objects(specific buildables) disables spawnings within 20 meters. A workbench us one of those and the build range of it is also 20 meters, so you will spawnproof anything inside its circle

[granite grail]

Point being, you can't tell someone else what is or is not insulting when you also feel insulted by what most would generally not consider insulting. It's a personal interpretation

[frozen void]

Let it go, both of you

[chrome badge]

Yeah, not when you take the time to explain properly immediately. What an odd point to make, I had literally said it wasn't a negative thing directly after. Yeah, just it it go.

[thin elbow]

A plague of deathsquitos upon your worst enemy

[fossil garnet]

i came agross of a desert when i was searching for a swamp what a greate time i had there trying to retrieve my stuff back

[frozen void]

Oh itll growth on you

[opal prairie]

No but you can set up a deathsquito farm if you can trap a 2 star greydwarf shaman in a cage.
Than make a moat around it so only the flying squitos can get to it, they will die before they can damage the cage or kill the shaman.

[fossil garnet]

i almost gave up on the game thats how many times i died because of those flying fs

[indigo socket]

I just found the swamp. Its the farthest ive ever made it in any of my play throughs. Not even to the boss. Hopefully this time around I will stick with it. Once I get to iron age I should be able to defend myself proper.

[thin elbow]

Anti-sting potion or root harnesk will help

[fossil garnet]

i havent seen shaman in the game

[granite grail]

root harnesk is OP fr

[fossil garnet]

excuse me what????

[thin elbow]

Mosquito repellent or pierce resistant armor

[fossil garnet]

swamp will get easier once u get iron stuff but avoid slimes and leaches at all cost brother

[chrome badge]

Don't worry, likely a bit of spoilers.

[opal prairie]

Greydwarf shaman in the dark forest.

[indigo socket]

I think they shoot the green stuff and area heal.

[opal prairie]

Yeah those.

[granite grail]

Also invest in poison resist and those won't be such a problem

[fossil garnet]

too much grind i crafted potion just for the boss

[indigo socket]

Yessir.

[opal prairie]

The root armor deals with all of that, that is why I like it, also good against deathsquitos.

[indigo socket]

Oooo I just made those in the couldron then fermenter. Good!

[granite grail]

and the Queen, ngl 😂

[opal prairie]

Yeah against that as well indeed.

[fossil garnet]

fermenting takes a long time i just went afk watching film before it was done

[merry pebble]

Honey, neck tail, coal and thistle? That is really quite cheap and easy to get imo 😄

[indigo socket]

Will you get more recipes for the couldron eventually or is what you see what you get?

[final bloom]

Jump forward just as they lean in to sting you and you’ll kite them forever

[merry pebble]

Depends what ingredients you already picked up and what upgrades you have for it 🙂

[fossil garnet]

the problem is honey not everyone collects bees thinking it will be usefull later

[indigo socket]

I dont think I have any upgrades. Healing, stamina, poison, and one other is all I have.

[dull warren]

There are people who don't collect everything?!

[final bloom]

Yes in the mountains you’ll find more

[merry pebble]

Well, somebody who got to swamps really should 😄

[merry pebble]

Oh, you mean mead ketill, then it just depends on the ingredients, it doesent have an upgrade

[opal prairie]

In my first playtrough I was happy that I did get my hands on some bees, loved the honey and was glad it was used in so much later on.
Now every playtrough I try and get 25 of them, for 100 honey per harvest. Got 10 so far.

[indigo socket]

oh yes sorry thats what it is, Not couldron. I only have boar jerky and the jam.

[opal prairie]

Also from the bog witch no, when you buy ingredients from her.

[fossil garnet]

have seen people on reddit saying that they defeated bonemass and didnt know they could craft a potion or even know what queen bee is

[merry pebble]

When you find a certain white flower in BF and tend to its seeds you will unlock a few more useful recipes 😄

[merry pebble]

Well... At that point i am tempted to say they just dont pay attention to their surroundings and/or dont try enough stuff that you should in survival-exploration game 😅

[opal prairie]

Maybe they were really unlucky and idn't cross bees.

[fossil garnet]

yeap i didnt know what it was for but still took it thankfully i have 4 bee hive

[merry pebble]

Also possible, tho unlikely

[fossil garnet]

i discovered it when i went inside the house and took damage

[indigo socket]

I think I have 7 or 8 and sometimes I think I have way too much honey, aannnnnnnd its gone.

[fossil garnet]

u need 10 for 6 potions i think

[opal prairie]

Yeah that's why I try and get 25, up to 10 in this play through.

[granite grail]

I have 5 and it's NOT enough

[merry pebble]

I currently have 8 i believe 😄 so 32 honey every full harvest

[frozen void]

18 myself

[indigo socket]

I built like a long wall with double wall high and partial roof thing. Just keep extending it as I find more bees.

[fossil garnet]

gimme some spare some change

[merry pebble]

Just explore your meadows a bit more i am willing to bet there are some beehives still there

[fossil garnet]

the thing is im trying to speedrun for mount and than explose the map

i hope mounts dont have stamina bar or they dont get tired easily

[granite grail]

they do have a stanima bar for sprinting, but it's pretty long lasting

[fossil garnet]

perfect parrying is op and shoud be mastered as soon u have a shield

even for bears and trolls i have no problem with that

u can even use it against bowman

[rose sable]

hey gamers whars up

i may need help in my valheim world

im a new player and i keep dying in the swamp. i want to set up a portal so that my deaths are less punishing. so far ive taken 3 boats out to the swamp and i've been ganked by the enemies there almost immediately every time. I am just trying to retrieve all the items i need to build my portal

[frozen void]

Is there a meadows or black forest nearby that you can land on?

[rose sable]

its separated by ocean

[frozen void]

You can try to find a rock out in the water or build in one of the big trees kn the shore in the swamp

If you get a bed down and you have some stacks of food with you you can respawn there a few times and try your luck

[rose sable]

ok ill try that. ill land on a rock and make a small camp

ty

[frozen void]

Sounds good

Id offer to help but im at work for another hour and a half

[fossil garnet]

best thing if you are frustrated is to take a break trust me lol been there

[rose sable]

yeah im getting pretty frustated lol. i hate having to go back to get my items because i have been dying a lot

[fossil garnet]

just take a break dont sweat it u will 100% succeed

[rose sable]

ty for the motivation. i love this game!

[thin elbow]

Landing directly in a swamp is pretty risky, ideally you’d find another swamp with a safe biome attached…but it’s more fun:D

[rose sable]

the worst part is having to genocide boars to build a raft that will probably get stuck at the swamp lol

[thin elbow]

All the mobs throw a welcome party for you

[regal cave]

u can get all your boat mats back after you colonize the swamp

except maybe nails if they are deep

[dim python]

boutta craft myself some Whole Roasted Meadow Boar

[rose sable]

oh you can do that? i didn't know

[regal cave]

yeah just wack it with stuff

[fossil garnet]

the day i went in that biome it was cloudy and i saw torches thinking i can baord there and got chased by ghosts and 20 mobs died went back and found a house in meadow biome preatty close to it gift from heavens

[rose sable]

i really like the base building in valheim. my base probably isn't great since im new but its very satisfying to see it grow

[fossil garnet]

yeap i have 3 bases now in meadow black forest and near swamp

crafted some portals between them

and some portals near bosses

and build wall around it if u dont want to get your bases leveled down to 0

u will get a visit from 2 blue smiling smurfs be ready lol

[rose sable]

you mean the ogres? lmao

i mean trolls

[fossil garnet]

yeap

[rose sable]

those guys fucked me up so bad lmao

but now they aren't a problem because i can shoot them in the face

[fossil garnet]

i went out and agroed them from my base and used fire arrows

if u have a shield u can parry their attacks easy peasy

[rose sable]

i still haven't made a shield 😥

[fossil garnet]

oh bro i cant stress it enough how much u need it

[rose sable]

should i make a bronze buckler? thats the best shield i could make right now but id have to grind for more copper and tin

[fossil garnet]

u can even parry arrow attacks and stun them and u deal crit dmg while they are stunned

do it

[rose sable]

u can stun from arrow parries? that makes no sense lol

[fossil garnet]

i skiped bronze but u can use it

[nocturne wolf]

any blockable attack is parryable

[rose sable]

thats very good to know

[fossil garnet]

its tricky to do it but u will get the timing

just dont die far from base lol

[frozen void]

It was a "bug" so they removed it, then put it back in cause people love it so much

[nocturne wolf]

why should parrying a projectile attack be less rewarding

[fossil garnet]

i mean the stunning effect shoud be removed at least

[nocturne wolf]

should be? why?

[frozen void]

https://tenor.com/view/shocked-shook-shock-gif-15844531

u are not throwing arrows back when parrying are u

is the bear loincloth good?

[fossil garnet]

dont bother with it get iron

[mild mason]

dont bother with iron get root

[rose sable]

i cant i keep dying in those dang swamps

[dull warren]

Root if you use a parry&dodge combat style, iron if you're more of a tanker

[fossil garnet]

take a showel and level the dirt from your hosue to that cave so u can run

i died many times because of the water slowing me down

[frozen void]

Dont bother with armor, blind them with your beauty

[rose sable]

my character isnt beautiful. hes actually pretty scary looking

[mild mason]

Bear Loincloths can be real good, just depends on how much "Dark Souls"-esque you wanna do. Lots of dodging and maneuvering

(and also on ur difficulty, too) [implying all 3 pieces]

[tacit crystal]

If you don't use full bear armor your armor rate should be good for early swamps.

[rose sable]

i just ran out of materials to build better armor and all of my good armor is stuck in the swamp

[fossil garnet]

only thing u can do is if u can get to it run towards safe place little by little u will retrieve it

place a bed somewhere near

but its the only way

[mild mason]

The "take-all" button is your friend

[fossil garnet]

well thats how i did it

had no other choise

[opal prairie]

I'm looking for a better way to harvest my honey.
I'm thinking two 2m beams on the ground, 45° roof on that, a 1m beam in between and the beehive ontop of the 1m beam.

Just keep expanding that, so if I pop a beehive they slide down and I just have to run along it popping the hives and run back once done.

[rose sable]

im gonna go genocide boars to make a raft and maybe get my items back. if not then i quit for today lol

i love the community this game has

[sleek sky]

Oh god not the raft

Biggest mistake ever is trying to use a raft

[fossil garnet]

why

i mean i did craft bigger boat

[sleek sky]

Its so slow and breaks instantly. No storage space either

Also a nightmare to control

[fossil garnet]

u can store things on boat?

[sleek sky]

Not the raft but others yes

[fossil garnet]

how just dump on the board?

[sleek sky]

They have cargo holds to store more itemd. Generally, when you go to get metals, you want to fill your inventory and the boat before returning

[lucid jacinth]

hello, any idea when the final update is? I have many plans but I'm too lazy to start them again when the new version arrives 🙂 Is it safe for a while to advance in the current one, at least a few months?

[sleek sky]

Storage chest by the mast on the floor

[prime moth]

i love the raft

dont need to grab a real boat when I’m explorin

[fossil garnet]

thanks bro didnt know u could do that

Also higher tier boats have more storage

[sleek sky]

Need the serving tray from bog witch

[dim python]

darnit

i got so excited...

[fossil garnet]

when i thought i crafted poison potions and tried to use it, it said it needs to be fermented

https://tenor.com/view/dumbledore-frustrated-harry-potter-i-give-up-desisto-gif-5524505

this was my reaction

lol

[frozen void]

Oh you definetely need it tho

[rose sable]

i died again :(

[fossil garnet]

take a break bro

it wont despawn

[rose sable]

i will now then i will come back stronger than ever

i couldnt build a bed fully. it needed roof + fire so i couldn't get it down in time. there isn't anywhere nearby that i can build either

[dull warren]

heh, I never even built one, I assumed it would be mostly useless and just a teaser for "you'll get better boats"

[fossil garnet]

thats some tricky situation worse than mine

[indigo socket]

Yes similar idea but I think the walled off looks better. But same idea!!

[fossil garnet]

also dont go there in night time

[rose sable]

yeah i went there during day and i still got killed by like 4 skeletons and leeches

[fossil garnet]

ill lag if i join find someone from na and ask for help maybe

[rose sable]

if i make a post on servers and lfg are people likely to help me?

[fossil garnet]

i would so maybe there are people who would

i mean from what i have seen people are helpfull here

[sleek sky]

What is your problem?

[mild mason]

Yo, theres a ||scammer|| posting in the screenshot channels.

[rose sable]

i keep dying in the swamp and i cant get my items back or even set up a camp nearby to attempt it

[fossil garnet]

and u dont have extra items most likely

[sleek sky]

Eikthyr power, all stam foods, rested, and run and dont fight?

[frozen void]

Ty

[mild mason]

"The evil is defeated."

[rose sable]

i have no more items and i cant set up a base. its not connected to land so its really difficult to get my items back without getting killed

[fossil garnet]

lemme join and lets try if u want to

[rose sable]

someone else offered too. ill open up a game

[fossil garnet]

great ill help if i can ill just lagg but maybe ill agro them

[rose sable]

i sent you a friend request on discord

[misty matrix]

here exists a hispanic server or channel?

ola

[merry pebble]

Possibly some servers in #1024264966712340510
All channels are english only tho 🙂

[misty matrix]

thanks, i want play but i dont speak english so well

i dont know how much lag i would have if i play a server in eu

[agile vapor]

Anyone dug out a mountain before? Like tunneled from the bottom to make everything above just poof

[queen wadi]

You can only dig down like 8 meters

[agile vapor]

From sea level

Wait, original terrain height..that’s stupid

[mint pilot]

Yall devs shouldve done the romance update because now the modders are gonna make it and its gonna be worse

And i dont mean worse in quality

[pallid folio]

Help is dead and this one isn’t. Can I join a server that has mods if I play on Xbox?

[dim python]

help is not dead, you just need to be patient and maybe ask in #mods-discussion or #dedicated-server

[hazy cypress]

Glad I missed...all of that.

Kate, Anything interesting going on now that you found BW?

[dim python]

sad i can't straight up eat my feasts 😿

[hazy cypress]

?
We can't???

[dim python]

need the serving tray also from bog witch

[hazy cypress]

Oh. Yeah, I read about that. Though, what I read was also slightly ambiguous. Seems like if you try to remove the tray before the feast is consumed completely, The tray will be destroyed (Maybe the rest of the fest is destroyed) it's...weird (Wording on the Wiki).

[dim python]

it's funny... i'm halfway done but i already feel like it's almost over

[hazy cypress]

At the start of the game, leaving the base felt like there was death around every corner and I'd never make it home. Now, travel is just inconvenient in places.

And I still haven't taken on Bonemass.

Part of me wants to rebuild Home in Stone before going after Bonemass, just to curb the destruction of whatever Raids I get afterwards.

[tacit crystal]

Serving tray serves as a tool to place feasts and food items on platforms.

[dim python]

and this is how feasts are eaten?

[tacit crystal]

Yes, from the table.

That's what I meant when they can save up inventory slots.

[plucky hinge]

I made a small portal hut down by my pier so I could get started on hauling things from / to boat. I tried something a little different with the hut and now I'm not sure I want to keep going with it. Ugh. Make the hut JUST for the portal, or start expanding it somehow? I kinda want to make a spoke of halls.

[plucky hinge]

This rickety little raft sucks.

[lone rampart]

Yeah but it sure beats swimming

[plucky hinge]

Dang it. They wrecked my raft!

[rose sable]

Guys I might be addicted to valheim rn its so good

What is ur guys favorite weapon? Mine is the atgeir

[light moat]

I think my favorite are swords, but clubs are a close second. I really like the greatswords, but the twin axes are crazy cool too. Kinda hard to pick a favorite lol

[prime moth]

[rose sable]

What is klossen? Is that a hammer? I haven't tried the swords yet. I didn't know you could dual wield axes and use greatswords either

[jolly pagoda]

[rose sable]

I will want to make a great sword asap

[rose sable]

Flint spear is so fun

[jolly pagoda]

that's the fang spear but yes i agree

[plucky hinge]

I like knife and shield for most running and stabbing, but I have the Stagbreaker for skeletons and Finewood bow for trolls.

[granite grail]

Swords. Swords. Shiny swords. Did I mention swords? XD

[plucky hinge]

Shiny.
#screenshots message

[rose sable]

I havent made a knife yet because i thought it would too short range. Its actually pretty good?

[plucky hinge]

It's great for sneaking up on deer and ambushing them.

[rose sable]

im too impatient to sneak up on deer. I just shoot them with the bow

[plucky hinge]

My aim is terrible.

Also, I often play a rogue archetype.

[shadow finch]

Just chase the deer with a sword

Works well enough for me

[plucky hinge]

Slow and sneaky with occasional zoomies is my thing.

[rose sable]

Why do you like swords so much?

[shadow finch]

Swords the best

[rose sable]

I imagined that your profile picture said this and it was so badass

[shadow finch]

Haha thx

[plucky hinge]

I'm kind of stuck right now with trying to establish myself in the bronze age. Supply chain issues are not being kind, though.

[granite grail]

Because the animation and style of sword+shield combat feels the most intuitive and invigorating for me. It's more fun doing it the old fashioned way xD

[rose sable]

Have you been able to build a cart yet?

[plucky hinge]

Yes, but my main base is in an unfortunate location.

[shadow finch]

I wish the 2 handed swords were a bit more usable, they are way to slow

[rose sable]

Why is it unfortunate?

Ohh are the greatswords not good?

[plucky hinge]

Land-locked in the middle of the meadows up a steep hillside.

[shadow finch]

Damn bro might as well turn on teleporting ores

[plucky hinge]

Uh, you can do that?

[shadow finch]

Yeah

World modifiers you can make it so you can teleport anythign through portals

[plucky hinge]

Ohhh

[shadow finch]

I use it cause getting ores to my base, especially from far is just so tedius

Like I don't mind mining the ore but wasting so much time back and forth is a no

[plucky hinge]

I am nooblet.

[rose sable]

I dont teleport ores but i havent had the chance to see how tedious it is to transport them. I feel like once u are established enough as a base it will get more tedious

[shadow finch]

The game does eventually give you a new portal that can teleport anything tho

[rose sable]

Valheim Creepypasta

[smoky quarry]

I mean you don`t really need a huge ammount of any ore, maybe iron for building

one boat full of copper should last you a few in-game years

[plucky hinge]

Boat full?

[rose sable]

Your boat has an inventory

[plucky hinge]

Hm.

I've only made a raft so far, and it got smashed up pretty fast.

Ah. They don't have storage.

[rose sable]

Once you get enough bronze you can build a boat with bronze nails

[plucky hinge]

Working on it.

[granite grail]

We're gonna fight Fader soon but I'm itching for a brand new world. The start and middle seems so much more attractive then the end. But I have to wait lol

[analog hearth]

for some wacky unknown reasons, my Valheim is running better, most notably at base, without VPO enabled 😭 . And the situation is already bad without VPO

I don't know what to do anymore...

[prime moth]

YAG FOUND. MAGIC INCOMING 🔥

[analog hearth]

mistlands...

https://tenor.com/view/vietnam-flashback-traumatized-cat-gif-7852054576948114551

embed failed, heh

[prime moth]

yeah im not looking forward to the gjalls

[smoky quarry]

the purple ones are cute

[prime moth]

also i forgot about totems 😭

[radiant cloak]

Play vanilla on GeForceNOW

[analog hearth]

huh?

[analog hearth]

well it does sound like an enticing option, except that I want to live in the land of the free 💸
And it is taking ages to load

[feral tendon]

Lore question, how many fulings can I eat before Odin personally just comes down to smite me?

[chrome badge]

Pretty sure Fuling is on the menu in the halls of Valhalla, you're good.

[feral tendon]

That's a relief, I brought a cart full of sweet baby rays and I don't think it'd pair well with sea serpent

[jagged wind]

[jagged wind]

wdym, they are very strong amd very usable

[brittle flower]

the krom in mistlands for sure

[jagged wind]

ashlands too

[feral tendon]

My hands. Just completely unarmed delivering the knuckle sandwich.

Hilarious way to play imho

[jagged wind]

if u like pain, then yeah, why not 😅

[feral tendon]

It's genuinely funny parrying an entire tribe of dwarves and watching them stand around for a second trying to parse the naked human backhanding sense into their brute

[hollow gull]

well 15 hour's into Ashland my skills are almost completely rest, i have never fully hated a gaming experience in all my years of gaming and once i finally do finish this biome ill happily uninstall and never play this game again.

[prisma ocean]

By the time you finish this biome you will know how all the mobs attack and will cruise through it. Well at least will be able to carefully progress across the map, “cruise” could be overstating it.

[feral tendon]

Valid- some of these mobs are just ridiculously unfair.
Personally, The worst offender is the environment generation itself.

Nothing kills my vibe more than a rock 2 meters submerged into the floor somehow stopping all of my momentum without ever touching me

[hollow gull]

i get the biomes major mechanic is just hordes overwhelming you. but do to poor design they give you nothing to help you progress. i mean maxed out caprice armor and its still a 2 shot. frost staff is supposed to be good but even if u max it out it takes a full bar to kill 1 warrior.

can get the fracture staff. still weak AF

[jagged wind]

idk.. its not that hard.. for me i like it... finally something where u cant go head first without thinking

but didnt enjoy being mage.. because leveling of skills start in Mistlands and its quite slow

and u need high level of blood magic to have some decent bubble on you

[feral tendon]

I'm not even going to lie every single mob in the game is way overpowered.

Like even down in the forest there's no reason that a rock launched by a dwarf should be one shottin me. Even if I haven't eaten that should still just be doing chip damage not putting a giant torso sized hole in my torso lmao

[hollow gull]

dont even care what build i run none of them are feective

[feral tendon]

The absolute best tactic to kill basically everything in this game is to lead it into water, watch it flail around for a minute while you fill it full of arrows from your ship.

[jagged wind]

are you calling a greydwarf overpowered? 🤔

[hollow gull]

the swamp sucked ass but at least everything was weak to maces so u had a leg up

sinking ore... like wtf is wrong with that dev

[feral tendon]

Honestly yes.
It's one of the first few enemies in the game and my experience with it was one shotting me from behind trees until I figured out how to hear them and then Parry The Rock.

Now my trade off for every mob being unbalanced is that you the player are also unbalanced and quickly parrying anything is probably the third best tactic in the game.

[nocturne wolf]

are you playing on normal difficulty? greydwarf rocks do 10 damage, so that's three hits with no armor and food
even with two stars it won't one-shot you

[jagged wind]

yeah

and by the time u get to black forest u have at least 5 armor on u

at worst

and like 70 hp

[feral tendon]

No my first playthrough was on the hardest difficulty-

My current one is on easy and parrying by itself trivialized everything in the black forest.

[jagged wind]

well the difficulty u r supposed to play in is normal, anything else wont be as balanced and u gonna have to adjust

[feral tendon]

The scaling of the enemies aside buildings confuse the ever-loving heck out of them.

Something I like to do is get a puffer fish and rais an earthmound, put the puffer roughly chest height and lead enemies back to that while walking around it slowly not even attacking.

[jagged wind]

on normal difficulty u can play any build and be effective..

[nocturne wolf]

fishing rods still aren't viable weapons there

[jagged wind]

me personally i think Ashlands are easy on normal

[feral tendon]

No big the cat build for me 😭

[jagged wind]

oh well

u can use wooden spear.. probably would be the same effect 😅

both are wooden sticks

[feral tendon]

Is there a recipe for the wooden spear? I always found it weird that I couldn't craft one and that I just had to find them

[nocturne wolf]

only the sword can be crafted

[stray stone]

Mage is as soon as you get the Staff of the Wild

[feral tendon]

Don't use armor, just use RAW speed and learn to time your invincibility frames and parry.

Do these things right and half of the game just can't touch you regardless of difficulty.

Also gas bombs on anything that breathes.

[stray stone]

Ashlands is pretty much war of attrition and mob kiting

[jagged wind]

in that case use fenris or asksvin

[hollow gull]

even elden ring never required autistic levels of block and parry. there was always an alternative play style. warriors here have a deep fake swing so parrying is mostly bullshit. staff of the wild requires a jade which is in the holes and fortresses and again you have to get that far. a game giving you the tools you need to progress a level at the end of a level is bullshit design.

[jagged wind]

for mage u need mainly lot of elemental and blood magic skills

otherwise u have no dmg

at least 50+

[hollow gull]

well thanks to the skill reset system we dont have to worry about that

[jagged wind]

wdym

[nocturne wolf]

if you can hear their attack sound you can tell if they're going to attack late or normally

[hollow gull]

talking about elemtal skill at 50 my run skill is down to 20 at this point

[jagged wind]

u can always lower the penalty for dying in settings

[rocky ether]

Ashlands is just conquest, once you clear up the spawners and make the fortresses as your base you are just occasionaly greeted by some askvin, comicall bone ball and big bird with fire balls

[feral tendon]

I mean this game isnt elden ring it's going to be using its own variations on these mechanics.

If you're using a shield then I'd recommend always block just hold that button down until you need to dodge or swing.

Trust me man we all get it- the game is horribly unbalanced (in some areas) and there is no reason that a mosquito should airmail both of my booty cheeks to two different mountain ranges...but we adapt

[jagged wind]

for that case theres the mead or harnesk

against squitos

[hollow gull]

i was just about to say at least theres a mead for thoes

[feral tendon]

I've found that just dropping a gas bomb on my feet and dodging works against skeeters

[rocky ether]

I time them right with knife and kill them before they hit me

On normal they are joke, on very hard you use harnesk and you are fine 🤔

[feral tendon]

Easily best weapon class imho

[jagged wind]

@hollow gull but yeah... if current difficulty is too much for u, you can always lower it in modifiers

[feral tendon]

There is no shame in setting the difficulty down I've done it before

[hollow gull]

honesty if i was playing on a private sever i would have. playing on hosted sever so me and a friend can both play at home or alone depending if away at work or not.

that said i get im having a skill issue. im also not a totally shit gamer

i bring up elden ring because i had the patients to kill every boss in that game. some with great difficulty the game was hard but not just kick you in the balls silly

[rocky ether]

On very hard for ashlands i ran the atgier + bow combo

Safest picks, together with flametal helmet, harnesk and fenris leggs

And most mobs i dont block or dodge

I just Mario them, jumping over heads and spin with atgier

[feral tendon]

I'm an ancient MF, games that hold your face on the curb while stomping your head in are kind of where I grew up.

I remember when everyone thought dark souls was hard at lunch and I had just come off the back of rerunning the whole Castlevania franchise- it's the same gameplay loop memorize attack do not get hit.

Nobody's belittling you man, were all Vikings here and we've all struggled with the games jank before

[feral tendon]

The safest place to be when fighting a large enemy is directly above it or behind it where it can't hit you

[pastel sluice]

Yo yo

[drowsy badge]

do you people build cart first or just straight to carve to carry copper and tin
for me i choose carve because they are more safe

[jagged wind]

depends on the location of those copper nodes

and terrain

for my current world i play i used cart as i didnt find any copper near coast that would be close enough to my base

[drowsy badge]

i just prefer coastal copper because it also provide tin aswell

unless the copper spawns in the edge of the black forest

[feral tendon]

Personally I like to walk right up to the copper node and then cut it off from the rest of the forest with campfires.
That way the only thing that dwarfs can do is sit there and watch while I take their stuff.

[dim python]

frostner

[drowsy badge]

the only problem i have is mainly trolls and bears
but im not scared of them these day
my dodging and parry game is out of the roof

not try to flex tho

[feral tendon]

The only thing in the Black Forest that won't turn tail when it sees a campfire is the troll I think.
But normally when the Blue Man group show up I just have them break the copper node

[drowsy badge]

free labour as they say

[feral tendon]

Bonus points if I can get a dwarf to help push my boat out into the water 😅

[drowsy badge]

i never had boat related problem

but i hate when the wind does not wind for me

[feral tendon]

I straight up avoid sailing until I've already beaten the dragon, the wind always seems to be blowing in precisely the opposite direction of where I'm trying to go

[drowsy badge]

i just have patient for it,
a really long voyage

but i just mine as much iron as my long ship could haul

or mine every crypt in the biome

[feral tendon]

I honestly really wish that you could attach a cart to a lox

That would make over landing a lot easier

[drowsy badge]

hell not even boars or wolfs

[drowsy badge]

a cart for lox should be big

[feral tendon]

Something like what Hildr has, basically a mobile base. That would be incredible for a nomadic lifestyle

[drowsy badge]

i want my ship to be my mobile home

[feral tendon]

There's mods for that- haven't played around with them myself but I've been considering it.

I wish we could have a little more control over world gen, like specifying continents or more rivers.

Living off the raft would be a fun challenge.

[drowsy badge]

a bullock cart is something close to it

[feral tendon]

I wish you could harpoon the mosquitos and just leave them tied somewhere.
Like an angry balloon

[drowsy badge]

speaking of balloon
gjal zepplin

[feral tendon]

Gjal zeppelin sounds like a tribute band.
I'm so down

[drowsy badge]

it's just gjal with longship

[feral tendon]

Honestly that would open up a lot of just entirely unfair options for the player.

Carpet bombing a fuling village with gas bombs and fireballs just seems hilarious

[drowsy badge]

it's fun to blitz them

[feral tendon]

You ever just run up to their camp, and enclose it with a wall?

[frozen void]

Walk into a fuling village. "All i am surrounded by is fear and dead men."

[feral tendon]

Look at me- IM the traumatic event

[drowsy badge]

no i just go for it raw
but still armed

[feral tendon]

If your sneaky enough they won't notice their new fence being built and you can effectively encircle the entire camp and then ignore it

[drowsy badge]

too expensive for me tho

[feral tendon]

Fair enough, I just enjoy breaking the enemy pathfinding.

Dwarves especially just seem to stand there if they can't kill or reach you.

My standing parry party is great for a giggle

I also thoroughly enjoy sneaking up fuling towers, then announcing myself by breaking the stairs and gassing anyone who tries

[smoky quarry]

local butcher shop delivery

[dim python]

himinafl, right?

most important ashlands mobs resist pierce

[frozen void]

nice bonus craft proc

[tacit crystal]

It has partial lightning damage, which helps counter the pierce resistance.

[dim python]

that's why i ask

blackmetal atgeir in ashlands famously doesnt quite work

[rain sapphire]

Hi everyone, I'm new to the server, I was reading the suggestion canal, and found out that most proposition about horses are refused by most voters, can someone explain to me why most are averse to it ? I mean, I find it a fine addition honestly, especially if the game make us able to have bigger maps in the future

[frozen void]

how far have you played? There's already 2 rideable animals

[tacit crystal]

Developers themselves have rejected the idea of horses for balancing reasons for example.

[rain sapphire]

Oh I see ! it explains the aversion for it in the votes. (Even tho it's sad 🥲 , I must then continue to take my charriot like a horse for the time being)

[frozen void]

also thematic

[dim python]

horses are often a mark of organization, a thing valheim doesnt have

[tacit crystal]

Some other reasons which I'm trying to recall:
Game is not balanced around mount combat, there are lots of biomes where traversing on mount is not ideal, worrying about horse getting killed easily, especially if it is found in earlier biomes, speed differences between horses and other mobs, plus developers are not so keen to add basic IRL mobs in game anymore.

[steel forge]

I could get behind hitching the cart to the already rideable animals

[tacit crystal]

And yes, there are some IRL mobs in game but most of them were added in very early stage of the game.

[dim python]

cart on person is already capricious enough 😩

[steel forge]

True I usually stick with moder and troll endurance.

[dim python]

i actually do like using carts but getting them unstuck while they're attached to a lox sounds to me like a nightmare

i'd rather lox were just given small saddlebags

[frozen void]

second mysterious location cleared, fader and reto awaits, but now i gtg to work

[lunar sapphire]

Farewell Viking!

[rain sapphire]

YES ! I would love to, i mean, it feels so weird to hitch the cart ourselves, when we could already domesticate some animals in the biomes

[rain sapphire]

That can also be an alternative

[rain sapphire]

I'm still discovering, the farthest i went is the plains

Since I only recently got the game, so I may not be very familiar with all the mecanics

[frozen void]

Lox is the first one

[frozen void]

You can ride them encumbered anyway, so full inventory of metal if you want

[rocky ether]

Yep, himimafl is best ashlands weapon by far, the damage is nerfed a lot by pierce resist but the lightning part makes up for it, the damage is better then other weapons if you fight groups and hitting more mobs at once, and the stagger controll of groups is priceless

For single target axes take the crown

[dim python]

not silver sword?

[rocky ether]

Berserkir axes dps is huge, also dont forget spirit damage from silver svord does not contribute to stagger, if something 2 handed sword for special attack out of charred warrior range

Also spirit sword often leaves you waiting for mob to die from the dot leaving a window for it to hit you still

[nocturne wolf]

silver sword does more damage than mistwalker for less stamina against charred and valkyries

[rocky ether]

I know but as mentioned before - non instant damage and less stagger

[nocturne wolf]

also 1h sword secondary is still good at hitting outside a warrior's range

i fight starred warriors by using silver sword and not triggering their attacks

[rocky ether]

Yep but if sword i take mistwalker anytime

Good vs anything and backup if you forget wisp to mistlands

[smoky quarry]

i find pole fantastic for mistland, the range really helps to free hit

and the aoe is just bonus range keeper

shield bubble On and with stamina I jump in a room full of mobs and start blasting aoe

[thick elk]

Hello i'm new to joining community servers. Anyone want to help me out. Good luck and have fun y'all.

[chrome badge]

What did you need help with?

[thick elk]

joining a community server. How do?

[supple tusk]

i'm loxing my fuling rn

[analog hearth]

wait, what is special about silver sword?

is it like the silver sword at mountains tier or am I confusing it with something else

[nocturne wolf]

it has very high spirit damage which makes it good for the plains boss and some ashlands enemies

[analog hearth]

should I have used it instead of making weapons of later tiers?
I feel like I have been wasting time and materials then... 🥺

[nocturne wolf]

the other weapons are useful for most other enemies

most enemies are immune to spirit damage

[analog hearth]

I kept mistwalker throughout ashlands
was that a good move or nah?

mostly because flametal kept running out

[smoky quarry]

spirit : holy damage

[analog hearth]

✝️

[frigid gust]

Frostner is still one of the GOAT weapons because of the Frost damage. It's useful all the way to the Mistlands, and it's even somewhat reasonable in the Ashlands in some circumstances

[prime moth]

why is it that the totems are never in the huge villages 😭

they're always in random huts

[regal cave]

Gotta look in lfg channel and ask to join for a password, or meet ppl

[nocturne wolf]

it's effective for every enemy in ashlands, good for saving inventory space

[rocky ether]

you are fine, mistwalker is S tier and i used it even after crafting all the ashlands weapons

[analog hearth]

🥳

[prime moth]

i find it very pleasing that fully upgraded plains gear is 100 armor

[analog hearth]

nice

[prime moth]

ooooo bog witch found!

[thick elk]

Anyone looking for another player?

[prime moth]

she's by 3 surtling spawners even 😮‍💨 this is amazing

[brittle flower]

naaah you are lucky

[prime moth]

so excited

bog witch arguably more important to me than haldor

movement speed potions are just too good

now i actually have to keep all the gold i find though

[analog hearth]

movement speed potion?

oh yeah speaking of which, how do I farm coins?

[chrome badge]

Like an auto farm, or just a good method for acquiring coins?

[analog hearth]

well I guess both? I haven't really put much thought into the question lol

[chrome badge]

For me, I was drowning in coins after Ashlands forts

But swamp crypts are also very prosperous

[tacit crystal]

If you have found Bog Witch, you could try love potions and running in black forests further than 2000m from spawn location.

Or literally searching from any dungeons.

[strange cradle]

Try killing the little green buggers in those lovely plains... or those huggable huge blue teddy bears in the totally not spooky black forests.

By the time I'm done with the plains, I'm usually swimming in gold. 😄

[chrome badge]

I think they're aware of what drops coin, more so looking for good methods for fast coin 👀

[strange cradle]

Well... it's like in the real world. There is no quick way to fast money.

[chrome badge]

I disagree, crypts have raw coin, sellable goods, and they can come in abundance.

Forts just drop stacks on you.

[strange cradle]

I wouldn't call it to "disagree". You have to work for it.

Or maybe I just misunderstood the question outright.

[chrome badge]

I disagree that there's no fast money, not zero effort.

[strange cradle]

I wouldn't call it "fast". By that time you've already sunk hours into the game. But yeah, that's how you usually do it.

[prime moth]

wait do shamans drop totems?

[strange cradle]

Rarely... I think.

[smoky quarry]

I got a cave under the square tower, full of gold from trolls and such buging me while cutting wood

[prime moth]

damn i wish i knew that i've been skipping villages in search of spawned totems lol

[chrome badge]

That's true of anything though, not expressly a point against grinding for coin. Just a matter of how far along a player is.

[strange cradle]

They are VERY rare.

You know the answer. 😉

"It is done, when it's done."

[prime moth]

well it was the last one i needed!

yaggy here I come 😈

[strange cradle]

You can do it, viking!

I just killed him like 20 minutes ago.

And he only dropped ONE torn spirit.

[prime moth]

i kinda want a movement speed potion first just in case

[strange cradle]

I'm now wondering if there's a bug there...

You don't need it. Steady and slow does it.

[lunar sapphire]

perhaps a deathsquito stole some

[strange cradle]

Ok, that's a good one. 😄

Actually, this is not the first time this is happening to me with Yagluth.

[lunar sapphire]

That's my specialty. Watch from my perch and swoop in with a good one-liner when no-one expects it

[strange cradle]

😄

[strange cradle]

Just to be on the safe side: Do not KILL him ON his altar.

[lunar sapphire]

Is your inventory full when defeating bosses? weight limit near? world setting of loot at a lower rate than normal?

[strange cradle]

Because that's when Yag usually didn't drop any torn spirit for me at least.

Absolutely normal settings. My inventory is as empty as it gets.

[prime moth]

yeah ive never had an issue

[vivid yoke]

im bout to crash out, why even with Core Wood Cross beams does my stone floor keep breaking????

[strange cradle]

Stone floor is tricky. You need iron support beams.

[smoky quarry]

if you link it all together with pillars at the beginning, it will sit on its own; with a limit

[steel mica]

because stone heavy
wood lighter than stone

heavy + light = disaster

This not Minecraft where blocks will float... ok maybe some exceptions

[vivid yoke]

bro this is an adventure game, not construction simulator lmao

[strange cradle]

And it's ONLY Yagluth that this ever happened to me.

[dim python]

sell amber and rubies

[lunar sapphire]

Um actually it's an open world, survival, crafting, sandbox game

but thanks for playing

[steel mica]

Technically it is a construction simulator aswell

[smoky quarry]

not construction?

ahem excuze muee

[lunar sapphire]

emphasis on the sandbox 😄

[steel mica]

Building mechanics is fun but annoying at times

[smoky quarry]

the challenge is the fun part

[dim python]

sandbox means it's all ultimately meaningless 🍥

[spare quail]

Didn't get to see the answers and my message got deleted, I guess mentionning deep north is taboo

[smoky quarry]

graphically enhanced day dreaming

[steel mica]

When its ready basically, no man or god nor anybody knows anything about DN except the almighty devs themselves

[silk token]

i would like building about 1/3 as much if there was no stability mechanic

[lunar sapphire]

Not even the bees know when

[strange cradle]

And usually they know everything. That's why they're happy.

[lunar sapphire]

How have I to do this day not attempted if bees can enjoy mistlands/ashlands?

[vivid yoke]

quintessential reddit response, chefs kiss

[lunar sapphire]

yet alone mountains

all my bees never leave meadows... rip me. Not a true player

[strange cradle]

Well, all my bases are usually in the meadows. 😄

Ok, that's not true...

[lunar sapphire]

Perhaps this run I'll have a mistlands base... we'll see

[smoky quarry]

we need mini walls and such to build a castle for each bee hive

[strange cradle]

So I had at least two bee hives in plains.

[dim python]

i have a mountains base

[lunar sapphire]

-# Can''t imagine an Ashlands base without land walls

[steel mica]

Or a fort

[tacit crystal]

Berserkers do, shamans don't (if you mean fulings).

[strange cradle]

Mountain bases are nice... you can't just grow anything there.

[lunar sapphire]

A valkryie can break down the fort over time

as evident with the inner tower

[dim python]

except fir trees

[smoky quarry]

and the storms blow everywhere

[strange cradle]

Ah... got that wrong. I know some fulings did, just didn't remember the right one.

[dim python]

never raining

[tacit crystal]

Ivy seeds do grow, but only under shield generator shield.

[strange cradle]

Well... no food then.

[steel mica]

The sneaky 1000 asksvins surrounding my entire fort: huh what valkyrie? 👀

[smoky quarry]

id say must have

[rain sapphire]

It's a survival game, ofc it should be as realistic as possible

[steel mica]

Not all

[unkempt copper]

Hola soy licenciado en el Valheim

[rain sapphire]

Mainly for roofs when trying some out of ordinary builds 🥲

[smoky quarry]

past surviving, now i`m thriving

[strange cradle]

Valheim is not REALLY realistic. But I do appreciate that there is SOME realism in the game.

[lunar sapphire]

English only in this discord please.

[smoky quarry]

like anyone knows whats realistinc or not in Odins remote world

[rain sapphire]

Yes I mean, there is magic, obv, but still some basic common sens is always good to have

[rain sapphire]

Odin is very realistic, you heretic

/joke

[strange cradle]

😄

[steel mica]

I do like the building mechanics not just for the realism but the limitations, it forces me to find creative ways of building

[prime moth]

i just found one in the wreckage and wasnt sure where from

[strange cradle]

Yeah, the drop rates are abysmal, though.

Like, super rare.

[paper marsh]

Like 5% prob

[steel mica]

Fuling Totems are technically finite

until you deliver the bronze? chest to hildir

[lunar sapphire]

Fuling Berserker drops and rates:

[strange cradle]

Uh... higher than the tropy? I didn't know that.

[rain sapphire]

Like with the roofs, it makes me suffer each time

[smoky quarry]

ah yes, never to be underestimated on 2*

[steel mica]

Gotta work with what ya got

Make basic designs first

[rain sapphire]

Yes, i did find some pretty fun ways to work around it

[steel mica]

dont go all willy nilly without structure or planning

[smoky quarry]

once you set up mining sites for whatever you need, you can build en mass, quite fast

[steel mica]

Wish starred enemies have a higher chance for trophy drop

Farming valks for their trophies is annoying

[strange cradle]

Starred enemies should drop starred trophies, IMHO.

[steel mica]

oo, glowing charred warrior skull

[strange cradle]

And of course starred trolls should drop starred troll leather!

Yes, that would look so cool.

[steel mica]

Hmm that'd complicate the crafting maybe a tiny bit

Factorio's upgrade quality is not fun

full on RNG

[strange cradle]

Why? It would work as standard troll leather... well, you need some more recipes, I guess.

But not really too many.

[rain sapphire]

Maybe adding quality ?

Like, starred troll gives a +1 quality material with a durability debuff ?

[strange cradle]

Something like that.

[steel mica]

I was thinking like quality similar to factorio where you need higher quality materials to craft a higher quality item

[rain sapphire]

I do agree that it's hard to implement (especially when regrouping Items in inventory)

[strange cradle]

Not really, it's just another material.

So nobody has ever encountered that Yagluth bug, where he drops no torn spirit when killed on his altar?

[steel mica]

Commom materials > common armor
Uncommon materials > uncommon armor
etc

[prime moth]

oh my goodness i left the bog witch cause i forgot my portal and now i cant find her again lmao

[strange cradle]

She's on your map.

[rain sapphire]

Yes, that's the problem ! We have a too limited inventory, no way to expend it without charriot, so while hunting, it would be hell 😭

[prime moth]

totally 😭

[steel mica]

no map run pain

[strange cradle]

😄

Oh... that's a... well... problem.

[steel mica]

Leave mounds of dirt wall

[strange cradle]

I never had much problem with my inventory.

[steel mica]

As your indicator in swamp

[prime moth]

just means i get to farm mounds of swamp garbage

[rain sapphire]

I always had during long expeditions 😭

[strange cradle]

Well... that's what you got portals for.

[steel mica]

Ehh better than getting lost, its dark in swamps compared to other biomes

The ancient trees dont help either

[rain sapphire]

... Often my expeditions are to find ore deposits

[prime moth]

this swamp is unfortunately massive so it'll take me a few days to find where i was i think lol

[steel mica]

rip

[prime moth]

there are like 8 surtling spawners in here

i was gonna use them as guidepoints but there are too many

my steak is too juicy

[strange cradle]

You put them in chests.

And then pick them up with a boat.

[regal cave]

Take a screenshot of significant places in regard to tree so u cant forget

[regal cave]

Bonfires in swamp op

[prime moth]

oooooh good ideas

[mild mason]

[prime moth]

lmao. im going into sunken crypts for money and yellow mushrooms

not for the iron.... weird feeling

[dim python]

what you can do is go back into unironed sunken crypts for the money and sellables

[prime moth]

oh thats true

[dim python]

that's what i've done quite a lot

it's also pretty safe

[prime moth]

well im not too worried about dying in swamps anymore

id have to mess up pretty bad lol

[sleek sky]

Best place to get money is frost caves imo

[thin elbow]

Massacre the goblins

[prime moth]

frost caves ey?

what gives gold in there?

[tacit crystal]

Chests, meatpiles.

[sleek sky]

Meatpiles drop silver necklaces

[prime moth]

oh dang ive never even noticed

i guess usually i avoid those places though

[sleek sky]

Yeah u always want to pick up all the meat piled

[prime moth]

good to know

man i've learned two new things this playthrough now

[sleek sky]

Its hella money

[prime moth]

hopefully i don't 5head explode to dvergers this time

bout 5 minutes till i try killing yagluth 👻

[sleek sky]

Yagluth the goat

Make sure to bring barley wine

[paper marsh]

And some mistlands food

[sleek sky]

Mistlands food for the previous biomes boss?

[opal prairie]

Doable but why would you go to all that trouble

[paper marsh]

For experienced players yea

Pretty easy to get

5 min of mistlands is easier than yag imo

Tho tbf Ive often just skipped yag. For me his power/drops don’t help much until the mistlands boss or basebuilding

[queen wadi]

If you are fighting yag you already have all the gear to explore the mists

[frigid gust]

Yag isn't too bad if you have a Frostner, fire resist meads and use cover appropriately. But I usually have a fully upgraded Frostner by then, so...

[prime moth]

silver sword + feet

and fire res sure ye

[granite grail]

feet?

[frigid gust]

Silver sword is slightly better against Yagluth specifically, but it's worse across almost everything else. I prefer spending silver on the hammer instead, but I will sometimes make both.

[sleek sky]

So stupid question, how do you deal with the mistlands mist without beating yag

[prime moth]

i find trader like 1/20 playthroughs lol

[dim python]

🏃‍♂️

[frigid gust]

Carefully and methodically 😉

[prime moth]

ive never done mistlands without the wisplight but i guess you can yeah

[frigid gust]

The wisplight is helpful, but if you keep your ears open you're not much worse off

[granite grail]

Watch your tongue peasant!! The Silver Sword is one of the very best weapons in the game. I used it to the Ashlands

[sleek sky]

So you save time fighting yag by not doing it, only to waste time in mistlands because you cant see shit? Am i understanding that correctly? Like i get you can do it, but wouldnt a wisplight just be faster?

[cinder drum]

fml i thought i'd find a shortcut to hildir and now I'm on the edge of the world trying to find a way through all these mistlands islands

[frigid gust]

It's worse against literally everything in the Mistlands, and roughly on par with the Frostner against most everything else. There are definitely differences, but overall the Frostner has a lot more things it's effective against.

[granite grail]

First time I did Mistlands was without a wisp. It's doable. I didn't mind it when I had never used the wisp, but once I used the wisp, I minded doing it without it 😂

[queen wadi]

There are open pockets free of mists plus you climb above the mist to see your surroundings anyway the wisplight only helps prevent getting jumped but you also have ears

[granite grail]

Never felt the need to craft a frostner

[tacit crystal]

Silver sword deals more damage against charred and valkyries than Mistwalker while costing less stamina to use.

[sleek sky]

I mean i guess that makes sense. Wisplight is pretty bad range anyway

Ok so then followup dumb question. How does queen fight work without a wisplight?

[tacit crystal]

No problem if you stay up high.

[sleek sky]

Ah no mist up there?

[granite grail]

If you're ready to fight the queen you should definitely have fought Yagluth by then lol. Just bc wisp torches help a good bit

[sleek sky]

Ah i see. That at least makes sense.

[frigid gust]

Pretty sure they use the same stamina per swing, but I'm not sure if Spirit DOT stacks or not.

[tacit crystal]

Silver sword uses 12 stamina per swing, Mistwalker 16. And Spirit damage stacks.

[frigid gust]

I wasn't talking Mistwalker... I was talking frostner

[queen wadi]

The only real difference between the mist walker and silver sword is damage type range and durability the walker is worse until you get the final upgrade for the bf

[tacit crystal]

Ah, I compared Silver sword and Mistwalker against charred and valkyries.

[dim python]

how is frostner at ashlands???

i've been wondering that

[queen wadi]

Range and durability makes it challenging to use but the slow effect helps

[paper marsh]

Ears and eyes.

It's hard to see without the wisplight, but honestly, it's hard to see WITH the wisplight too. It doesn't remove much mist

Going up high to scout the nearby area, and checking out mistless areas helps though

[merry pebble]

Quite meh compared to other options really

[dim python]

ok

[paper marsh]

Just kinda low damage I'd expect, but I guess a nice slow if you like that

[frigid gust]

Yeah, it's not great. But it's not much worse than the Silver Sword if you're going to be using something from the Mountains 😛

[queen wadi]

Frostner is def a good backup weapon after your main breaks from the constant fighting

[paper marsh]

Backup weapons in no-portal are very nice

Outside of that I don't see the need for them

[merry pebble]

By no means terrible tho, especially given the biome its from, but even with that distinction the Silver Sword is better 😄

[frigid gust]

Plus relatively low stamina usage makes it easy to keep swinging and keep enemies slowed at least

[tacit crystal]

It's safe option, slow and knockback helps a lot, but it is not the highest damage dealer. Viable tho.

[frigid gust]

Yup. My point was just that the Frostner is one of the longest-viable weapons in the game, across a huge range of enemies and biomes.

[grave crow]

silver sword is definitely a lot better in Ashlands

for the spirit dmg

[dim python]

does frost damage type help at all?

[queen wadi]

Range>damage having to sniff their armpits to do damage is not the funnest strategy

[grave crow]

i don’t think anything is really that good in Ashlands besides the weapons u get there

[paper marsh]

Silver sword is very viable, actually my preferred starter ashlands weapon. I have a hard time imagingin frostner being close to just as good, but I also don't value slows

[regal cave]

What if ur into that

[paper marsh]

You had me in the first half

Range generally beats all in terms of doing well, but imo it's boring af

Getting in close and personal is fun

[queen wadi]

To each their own i get the hate stick immediately

[dim python]

^ ^

[regal cave]

I prefer the "other" stick

[grave crow]

the hate stick?

[regal cave]

Almost

[paper marsh]

Probably a big stick shooting flamey fireballs

[grave crow]

i hope it’s not the intellectually disabled fireball

[queen wadi]

Its the name i gave the final unupgraded mace

[regal cave]

Or was it a hammer 🤔

[grave crow]

or whatever the earthquake staff is called

[regal cave]

Everything i do is intellectually disabled

[grave crow]

Lol that’s a fine name

[queen wadi]

The stick is hungry feed it

[regal cave]

How do you say dvergr-slayer in valheim language

[sleek sky]

Uh old norse?

Or does valheim have its own

[thin elbow]

Dvergr’s Bane

[prime moth]

yaggy dead! wahooo

what's this "yagluth thing" ?

[sleek sky]

Yagluths thing

[tacit crystal]

It's not "Yagluth thing" anymore.

It was like this before Mistlands update, called "Yagluth thing".

[tacit crystal]

But check hammer options.

[prime moth]

ye i was just making a joke lol

dam the silver sword really does melt the unbjorn

[tacit crystal]

Anything with spirit damage really.

I like silver knife against it.

And CBA.

[prime moth]

obligatory joelkkii "AND MY AXE" moment

i forgot plains at night is also the blackmetal delivery zone

[pallid folio]

There’s like no Xbox players on here 🙁

[prime moth]

ohhhh being hunted at night was not fun though

[prime moth]

my sons very excited for the switch release

[rare crow]

Valheim fun game good

[lost geode]

Theres so many things id like to see in the deep north update and unfortunately, i think most wont be done

Hopefully theres some mods to compensate for such afterwards

[plucky hinge]

Do we get recipes for these fish I keep finding washed up on the shore?

[analog hearth]

I think it is just raw fish at food preparation table?

[cinder drum]

damn bog witch's soundtrack slaps

[analog hearth]

wish I could cook them directly or sth

[plucky hinge]

Food prep table? Not there yet, then.

[glad night]

There's some recipes, yes

[plucky hinge]

I built a pier and I'm putting a building over it to house the workbench for repairs. Seemed like the thing to do. I was debating making it like a toll booth looking thing on the side, but...we'll see how this looks, I guess. Stairs are being weird.

[prime moth]

soft tissue obtained- officially furthest run i've made so far yahoooo

[steel mica]

Only thing left is the dvergr extractor

You can either
Cheese it with a cart
Lure in a gjall
Or just book it after getting the extractor

[foggy glacier]

I always feel bad fighting them myself. That being said I have no problem pushing them out of their towers and kiting in gjall/seekers/soldiers to get rid of them for me.

[prime moth]

https://tenor.com/view/sam-lotr-lord-of-the-rings-samwise-gif-4763300394008372588

i think manufactured war feels less bad than brutal murder yeah

i hate killing the friends 😢

[feral tendon]

Yag needs to be nerfed I stg.

The boss area is overrun by two jalls four loxs and about six fuelings. All of them respawn when I leave the area, and this is turned into a now 24-hour endless death loop.

[prime moth]

gjalls near the yagluth spawner? that sounds awful yeah

[feral tendon]

There's also no reason that yag should be burning through 200 hit points the literal second I step out of the portal when I have fenris armor and fire resist potion.

[prime moth]

yeah i got attacked by like 3 lox during my fight but that sounds awful lol

where was your portal placed?

with padded armor and blackmetal atgir it was doable though... but gjalls are nonsense

[feral tendon]

Insufferable boss fight.

What's the cheesiest mob clearing strat y'all got since half my fight is just going to be clearing this bullshit out to restart the boss.

[prime moth]

if you stand to his side he can only do the AOE attack, so walking in circles around him reduces his attacks by a ton

[feral tendon]

I am on the easiest difficulty.

This kind of horseshit completely kills any enjoyment for the game and I feel like it should be seriously nerfed.

[prime moth]

ooze bombs clear the mobs pretty well

[feral tendon]

I've already tried this method, but somehow he just seems to be completely destroying my 239 hit points in one attack no matter what equipment I have on and no matter what my stats are apparently supposed to resist.

Could my seed possibly be bugged?

I have cleared this boss before on harder difficulties

[prime moth]

hmm- i havent had nearly any issues with it so i'm unclear on what specifically is going on here

i can say ive never had a gjall show up during my fights though

[foggy glacier]

you want to cheese Yagluth? Dig a trench about 15-20 m long with a "T" at the end, angled down to full depth.

kite him over top of you at the end, you're too low to be hit by his nova, just shoot him.

[prime moth]

239hp sounds like a ton though, how much stamina do you have?

[foggy glacier]

You'll need two bows.

[feral tendon]

I tried this but he can somehow hit me through 30 ft of solid rock.

It did bring him to have health though but again..

[prime moth]

the fire breath attack will 1 shot i think anyone if you tank the whole thing

[foggy glacier]

Always worked for me. Sometimes I need to come back out and kite him back again. If you have the right configuration, you can move back to the other side of the T to avoid his attacks.

[feral tendon]

I apparently don't have actual cover in this planes biome, the aoe's just passed through the mountains.

[prime moth]

yeah i wonder if something weird is going on with the terrain

sounds buggy

[foggy glacier]

that does sound strange.
