[terse cedar]

do I need a moat and an earth wall or just an earth wall?

[hot trail]

what's this for

[terse cedar]

my 2nd base which is on plains/black forest on the coast

my real base

I've only beaten the first boss, wanted to get on the coast with defenses in place before|| troll raids like what flattened my base in last game||

[hot trail]

I think either a wall or moat should work fine on their own

but if one of the trolls is the variant that throws rocks, you probably wanna consider the wall instead

[terse cedar]

already pretty far along with the greatwall of valheim so thats fine

[spare drift]

bro

i didnt know catapult uses ANYTHING as ammo, so i threw my FUCKING SWORD while i was trying to figure out things

[hot trail]

wait what lol I didn't know catapult used anything BUT ammo

did you get your sword back

[spare drift]

no

idk where it flew to

[buoyant peak]

No

[hot trail]

rip sword. launched it into the 11th world

[spare drift]

its fine theres a lot of flametal everywhere

[vestal coral]

You can even launch ||yourself|| with it

[terse cedar]

do you pretty much need to make earthen walls in a square? I figured it would follow the axes that you can place walls on but it's coming out all jagged and crazy

[hot trail]

Yeah raising earth isn't snapped to any kind of grid. I assume the devs made it that way so that when you smooth the edges out you can make more natural-looking curves in the land as you terraform

[terse cedar]

well it looks like every block is raised with walls facing nsew, but you're saying I can smooth it out afterwards?

[hot trail]

given with how steep your earth walls are, you won't be able to smooth out much of it. Smoothing out the ground with the hoe only affects the horizontal slope of the ground. You won't be able to smooth out the sharp corners on your wall I don't think.

[terse cedar]

that's unfortunate

[rare rock]

Do the green ashlands weapons have the ability to stun bosses too?

[uncut mirage]

is 15000 instances too many?

[spare drift]

dude

holy shit how are you supposed to win against sieges? they had like 50 charred warriors, how am i supposed to kill that much

[uncut mirage]

let me tell you...

1. build stairs up to the wall
2. Pop bonemass and fire resist
3. run and and destroy the spawners
4. run and destroy the ballistas
5. Use Berserker axe to slaughter everyone 🙂

[spare drift]

5. is difficult because axe has low block value and those monsters hit for a ton

[uncut mirage]

bonemass plus max armor and fire resist you should be ok

pop a health potion and stamina and keep swinging

once the spawners are gone you'll notice there aren't that many

[spare drift]

by the way what should i imbue them withj

my current berserkir are lightning but is lightning really the best for them

[uncut mirage]

I use lightening because it bounces between enemies so if their all bunched up they all take dmg
Its awesome

the other two suck

[spare drift]

yea i got iolite first

[uncut mirage]

I have lightening on everything, the other effects I've tested aren't very useful imo

[spare drift]

what about staves? i think the fracture staff fucking sucks

[uncut mirage]

yep, that sucks

magic is still not as good as melee unless you're in a group

[rare rock]

honestly maybe its because I am playing on hardmode but the melee damage output by the mistland weapons (using the lightning slayer and axes rn) is me borderline tickling the enemies

mage friend got insane dps output with the trees now

the stamina usage is pretty much preventing me from getting any good combo too

[spare drift]

what are the "good" staves?

[rare rock]

don't know the name but the one made from jade is absolutely busted

[spare drift]

ive been using these 3

ice is too weak,fire is alr, protection breaks too quickly

[rare rock]

skeletons can also come in quite handy in ashlands here and there

[spare drift]

what about the troll one

[rare rock]

idk my mage friend and I have been trying to find the red gems, no luck in 3 fortresses besides finding merely 2 but we used them on other stuff already

but the jade staff is mad good

[spare drift]

i found 4

the wild staff?,

[rare rock]

yeah

[spare drift]

btw fracturing fucking sucks i wasted so much on it, i cant believe it

[rare rock]

its mediocre but its cheap anyways

[uncut mirage]

staff of the wild is very good

[rare rock]

mad good, shit is almost carrying us rn

can anyone confirm if the jade weapons have the ability to root bosses in place too?

[uncut mirage]

Staff of ember still smacks even in Ashland
and frost obviously

[spare drift]

what about troll and lightning

[uncut mirage]

lightening is like a shot gun, not found much use for it
Trollstav is fun but not useful in Ashlands
great for clearing out Dvergr in Mistlands though lol

[spare drift]

ill just make and put it in my equipment chest

[wraith jay]

Is there something wrong with the servers? i can't connect to my dedicated server and gportal shows now issues

[buoyant peak]

Not at all

[buoyant peak]

Yes

[karmic imp]

have some lag atm as well @wraith jay

[wraith jay]

I can't even log on, it says failed connection

Nevermind got it fixed 🙂

[frail cave]

how much time does it take to get that Blocked by an evil force message out of the server ?

just so i can pass thru the portal

[buoyant peak]

Depending on how much time it takes for someone to spawn any boss and not kill it

[marble roost]

Yea all luck. Took me 4 fortresses to find 1 jade gem

[tough quarry]

How exactly does the Heat Resistance from Flametal armor work? Does it help you resist lava?

[true steeple]

It increases the delay before lava and boiling water starts to damage you

[tough quarry]

So it helps when getting more flametal?

I am playing with some others, and I wonder if we should get enough for one set, before we mine for more, or if we should get enough for everyone

[true steeple]

It will only help if you fall into the lava, and even then you could very easily die

It isn’t a huge increase in delay but enough to jump once or twice before damage starts

[tough quarry]

Yeah I ain't planing on running across the lava

but on our first try, everyone fell in and died

[true steeple]

Feather capes are a huge help, but I assume you all have those already

You can use flametal to build in lava, so you can create permanent platforms around flametal while mining it

[mental parrot]

smouldering tomb not findable. searched everywhere even started digging

[tough quarry]

How do I get it back once I built it?

[true steeple]

Are there any others that won’t be too hard for you to reach?

[true steeple]

Basalt bombs?

[mental parrot]

i havent find this one yet

is it a big deal if i dont do all the quests?

[true steeple]

Is that a new marker from when you re-used the table?

[mental parrot]

it is

[tough quarry]

Doesn't it sink into the lava?

[true steeple]

The sealed tower has some items that otherwise can’t be obtained until a little later in the game, and I’m pretty sure howling caverns can have fenris hair

[true steeple]

The basalt does but the items don’t, so you’ll need to be quick to pick them all up before you’re on the lava too

[mental parrot]

yes i did most of them she gave me the smoulding tomb was one of the last i had to do

[tough quarry]

I dunno I'd be worried about loosing such valuable metal

but yeah, should we jsut get the one armor set for easier farming?

[flint pewter]

Anyone had issues with howling cavern enemies not taking damage on a server?

[true steeple]

I think the poles only cost 2, and you only need one of those to make a platform. Make sure it’s inside a generated shield so lava projectiles don’t spawn near it.

[tough quarry]

Also, does the metal that sinks into the lava, come back up at some point?

[true steeple]

It really won’t make farming much easier, it just might save your life if you accidentally fall in

[true steeple]

I’ve never seen items sink into lava, they should sit on top

[mental parrot]

this is the location where i try to find the tomb

[tough quarry]

I meant the Flametal towers in ashlands

[true steeple]

If it was there you’d definitely know in that position.

[mental parrot]

what would you do in my situation

[true steeple]

If you unload them before they finish sinking they should come back, unless that was fixed

[tough quarry]

Unload?

[true steeple]

Get too far away from them (best done with a portal) or have everyone nearby leave the game (don’t do this, it will remove rested)

It might be fixed but I can’t remember

[tough quarry]

I mean, could check next time I log in

[spare drift]

guys

arent valkyries spawning too much? i had to fight 5 in 30 minutes

[terse cedar]

how tall should my base wall be?

[true steeple]

Add tall as you want them, almost all enemies can’t jump.

[uncut mirage]

yeah, usually near forts and at night

[spare drift]

couldnt even get my ram back i had to destroy and take the resources to not get overrun

[uncut mirage]

getting over run is common in Ashlands, always be prepared to run away lol

I always take forts in the morning to avoid night time mobs

[twilit copper]

someone can help me?

[still solar]

why? sometimes it works

[daring nimbus]

Oh i had the same problem with that, my friend removed the ceiling on top of that bathtub and it works

[tender urchin]

Are there ways to increase the frequency of character backups? I'm playing on a dedicated server and my GPU does not get along with Ashlands, so I get crashes every couple of days. It's not enough to be unplayable but it does risk randomly losing my gear (thankfully there are backups) or a bunch of materials due to desyncs between world saves and character saves

[grizzled mural]

im trying to load up my world to do the ashlands dlc but its taking absolutley for ever to load? is that norml?

[lilac coyote]

There's no DLC for Valheim. But yes, loading a world since the update will take a number of minutes. Leave your mouse alone and if Windows says it's not responding, click Wait or whatever the prompt is.

[grizzled mural]

ok sounds good thanks

[jagged lynx]

the troll staff only summons 2, if I improve its level, can I summon more?

[fringe sundial]

The hot tub act's like a fireplace and needs overhead room to "breath" or the fire goes out every so often.

[hot trail]

I always thought the hot tub was just supposed to go on and off since I've only ever placed it inside. This I did not know

[primal dove]

If you weren't going to make a mace or spear, what flametal weapon would you go with for a melee build and why?

[uncut mirage]

SWORD OR BERSEKERS

[primal dove]

1 or 2H sword?

[fringe sundial]

I created a new world and a new Viking only to be dropped into a alter that was fully completed....? What? has anyone else had game markers/flags translate into another world(completely different seed)? I wanted a clean start but that didn't happen. screenshots here: #screenshots message

[lost sandal]

Ever used mods?

[fringe sundial]

And now I am scared to start because I don't want mistland+ level raids while potentially still in the stone age.

[icy hearth]

I’m sure the answer is no.. but is there anything to solve a completely empty world minus the map? All the backups are also corrupted. On Xbox series x. My friend and I spent probably like 70 hours on the world lmao so looking for any sort of help

[kindred plover]

Does Lord Reto respawn?

[visual radish]

Couldn't you simply make another new world to see if the issue persists? Could have just been a very random occurrence.

[zinc pumice]

Hi everyone, do we have people who experienced wifi getting restarted whenever they join local hosted server (LAN)? I am currently experiencing this issue and usure how to fix this. My first 5 hour experience of this game was figuring the above problem

[balmy hatch]

Does the smoke bomb do anything besides choke the player?

Is it to kill Dvergr indirectly?

[lament scroll]

Wow, took me days to finally land on ashlands. It’s… very challenging. I got pushed off beach and had to retreat. I love love hard games, but this is kinda ridiculous as a solo.

2 serpents and 6 birds harassing my ship on way in, in middle of a storm. I mean, Jesus Christ

I’ve never seen 2 serpents at once before in like 700 hours of gameplay. What?!

[copper bone]

my game keeps crashing to desktop randomly (sometimes after hours of playing, sometimes after only 10 minutes)

my SSD and GPU went to 100% when it crashed (found it odd as my game is stored on my HDD, probably saving crash files or something)

checking player logs the only thing I could find was that most of the crashes occurred right after it "Resumed music home"

checking crash.dmp files most of the time it would have:
Key : Failure.Bucket
Value: SOFTWARE_NX_FAULT_c0000005_UnityPlayer.dll!lane_try_steal

Key  : Failure.Hash
Value: {e9930531-a838-0e9e-a54f-52a6a644934c}

and only one time did it have:
Key : Failure.Bucket
Value: INVALID_POINTER_WRITE_c0000005_UnityPlayer.dll!lane_try_steal

Key  : Failure.Hash
Value: {82aaad19-5596-b8b2-7fb5-bb801118ce99}

I've removed all mods, done a clean install (checked for extra files when uninstalling), ran multiple file repairs through steam
I've given my save file to my friend so the world doesn't close if I'm hosting but my game is still crashing

if anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated

[tawdry ice]

Not really something I need help with but I will say that the music mixing/overlapping needs to be fixed in the ashlands

[dusty isle]

question, what is the bare minimum armor to survive in the plains?

[rapid wyvern]

i have a problem for command console, can anyone help?

[bold lynx]

The plains has a bunch of stuff that makes me feel like the game wants me to move. Like plants that only grow there, and a bunch of wind for windmills as well as just great scenery. I am thinking about moving but only if the resources in the plains and bonuses neccesitate a move (like barley and windmills being a thing that I will use ALL game rather than just this segment pre mistlands). What do I do?

PS (what do I use, frostner or blackmetal stuff?)

[terse cedar]

what do you guys do when you desperately need help but are too embarassed to ask for it?

asking for a friend

[night jewel]

has anyone ever found the map generator to be wrong regarding Haldor? (https://valheim-map.world/). I don't have any mods relating to world gen.

I went to the closest location and he's not there. I am positive I didn't go anywhere near any alternative places. I know that he spawns when you get near whichever one you arrive within X metres first.

[terse cedar]

saw u coming maybe

[halcyon crag]

wrong version perhaps

or mods misbehaving even though seemingly unrelated

[halcyon crag]

yes?

[halcyon crag]

Plains is a solid choice throughout, Frostner is great, BM sword as well

[solid glen]

Hey Lachy, typically the problem folks are experiencing is your world predates Ashlands.

[halcyon crag]

Ashlands POI shuffle hasn't been factored in yet?

[bold lynx]

is it worth moving my 2 houses and boat dock and farms for it? cuz I have a place set up and only wanna move if its super good too or needed throughout

[solid glen]

No, my map is fully Ashlands compatible. But if your world predates Ashlands, the POI "reshuffle" that is applied is specific to your worldfile and completely unpredictable

[halcyon crag]

if you want almost everything growing in one place, yeh, i find meadows or plains ideal for the entire game, but plains offers more

[halcyon crag]

as suspected

[solid glen]

So the only way to get accurate "predictions" for a map that was created before Ashlands is to upload it (blue upload button)

[bold lynx]

what is the more perchance?

[halcyon crag]

you can't grow barley or flax in meadows

[solid glen]

@willow badge if you're still having this problem DM me.

[bold lynx]

is that all? also is barley or flax even any use later game?

[halcyon crag]

barley does, it's ideal for food and feeding/breeding chickens

[bold lynx]

hmmm

im just still in a dillemma over uprooting all my setup for the plains if its just for barley

[halcyon crag]

you might move past bread eventually, but it remains a cheap easy food item with good stats

and it still makes fish'n'bread in Mistlands

[bold lynx]

oh damn

[past compass]

You could just make a portal link between your main base and barley farm

[bold lynx]

thats what im saying

[halcyon crag]

if you have a good base already it's probs not worth the move

[bold lynx]

i doooo

[halcyon crag]

just means another farm/outpost

fish'n'bread is amazing but most don't bother with it since fishing is soul draining xD

[tender urchin]

Anyone know if the Dverger spikes or the ashwall spikes do more damage?

[bold lynx]

wats the point of lox riding?

[idle phoenix]

its pointless. practically useless

me watching my full tamed lox get instakilled by a single deathsquito

[bold lynx]

That’s so dissapointing tho

I tried riding it and I’m just confused, it is fairly weak and gets hurt super fast, it’s also kinda slow

[idle phoenix]

it'll be much easier once you get your riding skill to 100

but loxes are so weak, even if you try feeding them food they refuse to eat for some reason? so they can't regenerate health

[digital notch]

accidentally zoomed in and out on my mini map yesterday but cant seem to figure out how i did it. im on m/kb if anyone can help id appreciate it

[idle phoenix]

scroll?

[digital notch]

not the big map the mini one in corner

[idle phoenix]

oh it's the little , and . keys on your keyboard

[rapid wyvern]

i cannot press F5 console, usually i can

[idle phoenix]

you sure your launch options are correct and the input is -console

[halcyon crag]

you can check -console is typed in in Steam Valheim settings, properties, launch options

[digital notch]

ah very good thanks much

[rapid wyvern]

already done that long long time ago

[halcyon crag]

checked keybinds?

[serene spruce]

mates how do I use the ||gemstones|| I've found? I know they are used to ||upgrade the ashlands weapons|| but I can't see the option to in the black forge crafting menu. I have all of the prerequisite materials.

[halcyon crag]

need the correct upgrade station for the forge

[serene spruce]

ooh I see, once I've made the ||gemcutter || the options will appear?

legend. thanks

[rapid wyvern]

already reset the keybind nothing happen

https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/proxdl/is_your_f5_console_not_working_after_hh_patch/

[rapid wyvern]

it a similiar problem by the way

[halcyon crag]

mods may be interfering? that page is from 3 years ago lol

clean re-install of the game is the next step

[rapid wyvern]

i just notice it was 3 years ago, plus i also long time not opening valhiem since like there is a new update right now

[rapid wyvern]

aite

[rapid wyvern]

already reinstall and i still cant press F5

[terse cedar]

can you restore the natural terrain to a square you've hoed?

[halcyon crag]

is yr F5 key even working?

[halcyon crag]

not the elevations but you can grass it over with the cultivator

well, you can with raising ground, but you'd have a tricky job getting it to blend nicely

and 🥱 effort

[rapid wyvern]

HOHOH YEP WHAT A ROOKIE MISTAKE😂

luckly i have 3 keyboard thanks buddy, sorry for bothering u

[halcyon crag]

all g xD

[hot trail]

ig I didn't need the vegvisirs after all, I managed to stumble on a fader location by chance after exploring for some time

[rare rock]

does stamina food increase stamina regen? I have been unsure about this one for ages

it doesn't seem to be the case to me at least

[frail cave]

if i remember correctly, it indirectly and not very significantly boosts stamina regen because the speed of stamina regen depends on what percentage of stamina you have left (it's faster the less you have left)

i could be wrong on that, math is not my strong suit 😅

[balmy hatch]

If you get hunted on the ocean, you can see 4-5 serpents at once. If you're referring to bonemaws, it is common to have to deal with 2 at once.

[frail cave]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Stamina

[rare rock]

This is my third playtrough and I have yet to see 2 serpents of any type at a time 🤔

what kinda luck do you have

[boreal cobalt]

why do crafting station upgrades need so much space to be placed?

Is there a way to keep them but get around this?

[pliant lodge]

you could try putting one up on a shelf

i sometimes put some under the floor if the house is raised, or outside if the crafting station is against an outside wall

[manic torrent]

do you guys know why me and my buddy get "incompatible version" when we try to play the game with these mods/plugins?

we both have the exact same copy of the plugins folder

both running latest version of the game of course

[boreal cobalt]

maybe you have a different mod loader version

[manic torrent]

how can one check this?

[boreal cobalt]

I'm not exactly sure how it works for valheim

[manic torrent]

we just manually installed these. no mod loader afaik?

[boreal cobalt]

do you not have BepInEx?

[manic torrent]

yeah we do use that, my bad

we both installed bepinex yseterday so i would be surprised if we had a mismatched version

[boreal cobalt]

you should check the valheim version in menu to be sure
it's in the bottom right corner

[manic torrent]

yeah we both run that one

we already confirmed earlier

[frail cave]

the "you are being hunted" event is for wolves and only wolves. you can get it in mountains or plains in a post-bonemass world, this includes even plains that are entirely shallow waters, though it can't spawn wolves without ground.
if you happened to see serpents while that was going on, that was unrelated (or modded).

[halcyon crag]

most likely a modded version of the raid

[manic torrent]

thanks, we'll check it out

[halcyon crag]

also explaining the amount of serpents they claim to have seen at one time

[boreal cobalt]

and you downloaded mods from the same sites etc?

[manic torrent]

yeah he made a copy of the plugins folder we want to use, i pasted that

i might've messed up unzipping bepinex tho. testing now

[lament scroll]

Yeah I’m no expert but the 4-5 serpents at once seemed bogus. At least on vanilla

[boreal cobalt]

does it show up in the main menu?

I forgot there was a version number here

[frail cave]

they have a spawn chance of 5% per chunk per spawn attempt (which has a 16 minute cooldown and requires a player to be present in that chunk) if it's nighttime and another 5% if it's raining or storming. while the former will despawn if loaded in during the day, the latter will never despawn, allowing you to find it again on a different date during any weather if you previously missed it.
there's also a limit of 1 serpent at a time per chunk (chunks are 64x64 meters big.)
so 2 serpents at a time is possible, just very rare

honestly not sure if i've ever seen it happen in person myself now that i think about it 😅 kinda surprising with how much time i spent hunting serpents

[vestal coral]

A bit OT but have you seen Bonemaw fighting a Serpent? 😛 Epic faceoff

[halcyon crag]

i've seen them one after another for a total of 3 but they weren't on my screen at the same time, just close

[balmy hatch]

Open Ocean biome. 5 daytime serpents spawned over the course of the 1-2 minute duration of the event, and ceased spawning when the event was over. Vanilla Valheim, after the Oceans update.

[frail cave]

there was no oceans update, unless you mean the mistlands update

[halcyon crag]

there's no such event in vanilla

it only spawns wolves

and if yr in Ocean nothing happens since wolves can't spawn

if yr close to shore they swim out to the boat

[balmy hatch]

There was. It was when fishing was extended to all biomes and added the fishing hat. The devs had promised a significant expansion of the Oceans biome; it included fishing, and I assume the extension of the "You Are Being Hunted" event to the Ocean biome. That's when I encountered it. I've also been hunted by wolves when on continental shelves. The spawned at the shore line and swam in.

[halcyon crag]

what we're saying is the serpents are unrelated to the event

[frail cave]

that was the mistlands update.
but yea that event has nothing to do with serpents, any serpents you may have encountered there spawned on a rainy/stormy day at some other point in time

[balmy hatch]

Perhaps they restricted the event soon after. I imagine it would have been tough for some to manage so many serpents.

[frail cave]

i find it a million times more likely that someone just misinterpreted what they see, it happens all the time.

[manic torrent]

got it fixed, apparently i had not unzipped the bepinex folder in the right location

[balmy hatch]

I find it a million times more unlikely that 5 serpents spawned in daylight so fast during the event for any other reason.

[manic torrent]

thanks for the help guys. it was totally my dumbass fault lol

[frail cave]

we don't even have any evidence that that there were that many serpent encounters at that point and that it was all separate serpents.

would be strange if they implemented this feature for one person's copy without mentioning it in the patchnotes only to remove it soon after

[balmy hatch]

I agree. That would be strange. I really don't need you to validate my experience. It was quite a fun fight. Far more interesting than the Bonemaws so far.

[halcyon crag]

if you had other players with you i'd hazard that one of them was spawning them in

[balmy hatch]

Anyway, I had originally popped on to see if anyone had answered my question from earlier.

[balmy hatch]

Never played multiplayer.

[halcyon crag]

freak incident then, would be nice to see some evidence it happened

[granite heath]

can i still mine around the whole copper vein and it just falls

[balmy hatch]

Wish I had it recorded. I wasn't recording my sessions back then.

[frail cave]

i believe the smoke bomb was added to deal with the optional spreading fire feature? not sure about that myself

[halcyon crag]

still absolutely unrelated to wolf raids tho

[balmy hatch]

I believe you are correct. Same name for the event, but different biome.

[frail cave]

i'd assume it works to kill dvergr without aggroing them too, i just don't think that's the main purpose since it makes little sense

[balmy hatch]

Optional spreading fire feature?

[frail cave]

was added in the ashlands update.

[balmy hatch]

I didn't read the spoiler patch notes. Is it an option to "suppress" spreading fire?

[buoyant peak]

Mods

[balmy hatch]

I don't use them.

[frail cave]

i think so, testing that right now

[buoyant peak]

I've seen a lot of people claiming the exact same thing *and still" using mods

[balmy hatch]

Those would not be me. Not interested in having this debate again.

[frail cave]

yea smoke bombs do seem to stop fire from spreading

[balmy hatch]

Given the description, and the fact that it does nothing to conceal the player, it makes more sense as a means to root out Dvergers in Mistlands and Ashlands holds. The Devs were enamored with the way the winner of the speed test cleared the holds by doing indirect damange with a cart.

[balmy hatch]

Do they put the fire out immediately?

[frail cave]

no, so maybe i'm wrong on that 😅
just tested a spreading fire without smoke bombs and it also stopped eventually

[balmy hatch]

If so, I wonder what they would do to the burning blobs.

Or Fallen Valkyrie fire. An extinguisher for that would be great for mages.

[frail cave]

that might be it then

[wooden badger]

why is my smelter not burning

[frail cave]

i'll ask next time i'm in a convo with one

[frail cave]

it's probably suffocating on its own smoke

[balmy hatch]

Okay. Thanks for testing the other methods. I'll see if I can use it on Rogues without gaining aggro.

[frail cave]

probably will aggro if you hit them with the bomb directly, but i'm 60% sure the resulting smoke shouldn't aggro them

[wooden badger]

yeah i do have a roof over it

[balmy hatch]

Shouldn't if it's considered passive damage.

[buoyant peak]

This is clever thinking.

It might put out Valkyrie fire

But I don't think it does anything to lava blobs

[frail cave]

the smoke yea, but i think the bomb itself still deals damage from the player

[buoyant peak]

Now that you're in-game, can you test lava blobs and Valkyries?

[frail cave]

i just closed the game but sure i'll do that and the rogue testing

yea they aggro if you hit them with the bomb directly, but even if it blows up right next to them, just as long as they're not hit by the projectile they'll stay neutral

seems like a very slow way to kill them but it sure works

it doesn't seem to put out valkyrie fire and lava blobs don't seem to care either

[buoyant peak]

Then they need an overhaul because as of know they're a waste of resources apparently...

With fire hazards on, your stuff can be burned from the very beginning... And they added the means to stop it in the penultimate biome

[frail cave]

if they even do stop it, i may have just been misinterpreting that

[buoyant peak]

Smiffe did imply it does but I don't trust smiffe

[frail cave]

ah that's probably where i got that from~~, same then~~

i think it might be a stealth bomb? it looks like it doesn't make any noise on impact. but upon being damaged by the smoke, enemies would still alert, even if they wouldn't immediately find you.

[buoyant peak]

Try and find out? Xd

I've only seen people coming up with the idea that enemies lose aggro when you use them. But that's only when they're already targeting you

[frail cave]

as far as i can tell they do nothing for visibility, but i'll test that

enemies can spot you through the smoke and the smoke doesn't seem to change anything about the interval of them losing interest.
it doesn't look like the light/sneaking bar is affected by it either, not that that would help since taking damage (from smoke in this case) makes you stand up.

and the pathfinding certainly doesn't care about smoke

[hollow helm]

am I supposed to go down here? because idk how i would get up

[frail cave]

you can probably climb up those stairs over there and then go along the side of the room, the walls are uneven enough to usually be run along

could also be that those stairs connect to another path leading to where you are now, not sure from the screenshot 😅

[hollow helm]

ah yea found it ty

[buoyant peak]

Well that is disappointing...

I know their intention but even in ashlands, flammable pieces can simply be protected by the shield.

Seems like they only thought of the idea and not the implementation

[hollow helm]

yo how many cultists can be in those rooms? I thought there could only be one and I just ran into 4 lmao

and there's another one waiting in the other room and im on low hp xd

[true steeple]

I very rarely find 1, I have terrible luck with frost caves

[hollow helm]

i mean i still need the trophy so idm

just would like to know if i have to prepare for even more than 5 in the next one xD

[uncut mirage]

I've come across 6 at once

[hollow helm]

yeah i just had 5. got scary xd

[uncut mirage]

their trophy is hard to get

[true steeple]

Finding cultists isnt the problem for me, I usually find no fenris hair and if I do it's not much

[balmy sonnet]

How fishing work ? do i get only fish ?

[hollow helm]

I'm pretty sure depending on the fish you could get another item

[uncut mirage]

that's how fishing works

oh yeah, random iron too xD

[hollow helm]

you can find the bonuses here https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Fish

[uncut mirage]

There definitely needs to be more fish recipes considering how deep fishing is

[balmy sonnet]

i mean is there a way to tell when i have let the fish tire itself or do i have to just rill in

[hollow helm]

in frost caves, does hearing howling mean there's more in the cave that I havent explored yet?

[hollow helm]

i dont think fish can tire themselves

afaik

[uncut mirage]

no, there's no sound indication for completion

[hollow helm]

alr ty

just feels weird hearing howling thinking ''but i thought i killed all the wolves?'' xD

[true steeple]

Other dungeons also play enemy sounds when there aren't any enemies

[hollow helm]

ah ic

[urban anchor]

hi all 👋

when a creature is showing yellow hearts it measn its being tamed right ?

[wintry seal]

Hey guys

I'm trying to use the "Manage saves" feature, but it just stays at "Please Wait", any solutions?

I'm trying to load the previous save in my world, is it possible by any chance?

[rich crane]

Hello I want to know where I can find like the "Dvergr Extractors" I know its needed for some crafting bench in the Mistlands

[halcyon crag]

lots of dungeons get proximity sounds bleeding through from other dungeons due to their global positioning

[halcyon crag]

clue is in the name

[past compass]

If it's a cloud save, try moving it local first. The steam cloud save can be a bit finicky at times. In my experience only the autosaves seem to be used for restore points, so if you're trying to restore a previous manual save I don't think the builtin manage saves will work.

[small kite]

hey guys quick question, so I just got the new gems and im thinking of upgrading some of my ashlands weapons, is there a difference in cost of resources when for example, getting a max level weapon then enchanting it or enchanting the weapon a level 1 then upgrading it

[halcyon crag]

enchant the base level weapon and then upgrade

[gentle harbor]

if i upgrade the base slayer and then turn that into a brutal slayer for example is it gonna be level 1 or upgraded?

wait

[halcyon crag]

you would lose any levels you put into the weapon before enchanting it

[frail cave]

and the enchanting won't be any cheaper either

[buoyant peak]

Simplest solution would probably be to lock base weapons from upgrading because there's 0 reason to not enchant them

It's very misleading seeing an upgrade available just to lose it immediately

[frail cave]

i don't know if i'd wanna arbitrarily worsen the flametal grind...

oh i misread, thought you meant you had to upgrade before enchanting

[halcyon crag]

i would have a warning somewhere so players didn't just waste materials without knowing, maybe the birds could be useful in this regard

maybe it could even be a loading world tip

[thorn spire]

That’s a good idea. Maybe post it in #suggestions that Hugin should pop the first time you create a flametal weapon telling you to go search the fortresses for hidden treasure

[buoyant peak]

That would work...

If people had the ability to read properly.

Even if there was a message telling them that, still a good number of players would still commit the mistake

And any of the ravens telling you would make it even more ignorable as people stop listening to them or they have the raven tutorials disabled

[digital aurora]

can i re-summon the minboss in ashlands after my friends already killed it once?

[supple panther]

No, i don't think you can. It's one per server.

I might be wrong tho. But from what I've heard, its one per server.

[digital aurora]

oof

[supple panther]

Yep.

[digital aurora]

so only one guy on our server could make the sword

[supple panther]

Yep.

[boreal cobalt]

is there anything I can use to find skulls in the mistlands? do they spawn near the swords and armors perhaps?

[supple panther]

You can sometimes find skulls in Dverger outposts.

[boreal cobalt]

well I've only found 3 towers

[supple panther]

Yeah not those ones, the excavation sites

[boreal cobalt]

I know :(

no luck with skulls yet

[supple panther]

You'll find em, just have to keep looking : D

[safe depot]

I'm having a problem i dont see my world file in the save folder 😦

[boreal cobalt]

I've been walking and walking and I keep finding either armor or swords around 10 by now

[last osprey]

Listen for ticks. Ticks obly spawn once at giant skeletons and from gjall during the day so ticks without a gjall means theres a skeleton nearby

[supple panther]

They're looking for skulls

[boreal cobalt]

you have to go into the game and change your world to local

[last osprey]

Every skull comes with a ribcage

[supple panther]

You get marble from skeletons, and tissue from skulls

[safe depot]

so start it op once as normal not a server right?

[supple panther]

Well actually no, sometimes there's just the ribcage, and no skull

[last osprey]

Unless its a dvergr excavation

[boreal cobalt]

no, in character selection screen there is a button manage saves and there you can change your world to a local file

[safe depot]

ok

[last osprey]

Its still your best bet outside of blindly running a search pattern through the mist

[boreal cobalt]

dverger tower number 4 found

[safe depot]

Thank you

[supple panther]

Btw, just incase you didn't know, you can get tissue from those boxes in the Dverger towers, if that's why you're looking for skulls.

Although, you will most likely have to fight the Dvergers...

[boreal cobalt]

yep

I'd rather keep them as protection

[supple panther]

Ah, understandable

[primal dove]

They make good bodyguards

Unless you make them angry

[neon pumice]

Anyone got any tips to harvest blood bags and royal honey

I have cleared out half the mistland dungeons

[willow badge]

royal jelly respawns after 4 hours

blood bags or blood clots?

[neon pumice]

The tick drop

[willow badge]

so clots (bags are from the swamp leeches)

[neon pumice]

For health position

[willow badge]

when a gjall spawns, it will continuously spawn ticks

if you camp in a giant ribcage, he won't be able to damage you inside, but the ticks will be able to enter

[neon pumice]

Oh that’s masssive

[loud linden]

Gjalls regularly spawn ticks, not continuously.

(Just for anyone about to have a break-down about encountering their first Gjall).

[last osprey]

Ticks in infested mines respawn too

[willow badge]

worded it poorly, my bad

[willow badge]

yeah, but surely not as many as from a gjall, if the goal is to farm them

[stark quartz]

Which is the best mod to help with adding better snapping points?

[true steeple]

You might not need a mod. where do you need the snap point?

Wood doors and cross pieces are very helpful for precise building because they have snap points that are close together

[stark quartz]

I would like more snapping points than are in the default behavior.

[manic torrent]

[upper nova]

hey guys. i´m having massive performance issues since we rebuild our base with stone. i guess there are just too many instances (around 12k mid base) and my pc is bad. but is there a way to tune things to run a little smoother? best times is like 13-15 fps. worst is around 7.. thanks for any kind of answer!

[lost sandal]

you'll have better luck in #mods-discussion

[stark quartz]

This will give more info to assist you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7MKzoSEEqY

[boreal cobalt]

is there anything of mistlands level I can craft before going into infested mines like armor or weapons?

[true steeple]

You can make food if you mine some black marble

[boreal cobalt]

are ooze bombs good for the mines?

[true steeple]

I havent tried but others have said they are

[rare rock]

What is the maximum comfort we can get in this update?

rn I am at 17

[buoyant peak]

19 with seasonals

[toxic bison]

I doing no map run and found Hildir. She gave me her quest and I even brought her one item, but her table still points to the same directon. Does it point to the closest map marker?

[rare rock]

oh right forgot about those, but I cant get those rn anyways

[buoyant peak]

You can by enabling debugmode and build those alone

[rare rock]

I know but I prefer not to cheat unless I have no choice

[frail schooner]

when i start a server, it just stays on loading any fix

[arctic zenith]

i cant play w my friends if my friend joins me it spawns him to random place and he will be kicked after like 1m

the servers so laggy

[boreal cobalt]

that's either steam or the host(probably the host)

[arctic zenith]

is there any way to get better connection

it keeps disconnecting every 1min

[boreal cobalt]

it could be many different issues

I don't know

[arctic zenith]

yeah i just got the game so

[boreal cobalt]

servers should be working alright so I guess it's something on your end

internet connection possibly

[arctic zenith]

yea

[uncut crest]

Can the magmafish be caught? They aren't biting the hot fishing bait.

[charred iron]

Yo, I’m having an issue saving my character separate from world save on Xbox. Anyone else experiencing this and do you have a solution?

[subtle parrot]

They save separately, but at the same time if that makes sense. Like they save at the same time, but you can view each save separately in the manage saves menu.

The characters save is not tied to the world save

[mint current]

Hey I am looking for a little help with Valhiem. Recently installed the game and played in my own world single player. I have an RoG Laptop that has a decent enough GPU. I played RDR2 and AOE4 on this machine, but Valhiem lags for me. The frames keep dropping from 50 to under 20 FPS. I updated my GPU driver, reinstalled the game, verified files integrity but it keeps happening. Now if this is thermal throttling, why doesn't it happen for games that require much more processing power than this game. I really love Valhiem and I don't want to give up on it. This is a last ditch effort.

Can someone help?

[charred iron]

Right, the issue im finding is that it won’t save my character separately when I select save in the options menu before logging out

[neon onyx]

Is there a way to lower the spawn rate on a dedicated server? This is absolutely ridiculous. I thought I lowered the difficulty to EASY after we died numerous times, but it changes nothing. Now my tombstone is stuck inside a rock and the one person alive is getting nonstp[ mobs.

[uncut mirage]

does parrying level up block faster than just holding block?

[true steeple]

Yes

[terse cedar]

is there a way to flip the 1x1 wall vertically to fix this?

[thorn spire]

don't think so, without mods. Just build a 2x2 wall and overlap it.

[crude dove]

Do the dverger camps in Ashlands || have resources you can't get elsewhere, or any Flametal? ||

Also, is there any way to make sure Ashlands || have Flametal pillars or big fortresses or whatever from the shore or without spending forever sailing the hell ocean or hours clearing an island for nothing ||

[terse cedar]

do you guys build with the horizontal supports inside or out?

[thorn spire]

I like smooth walls inside.

I think it's meant to go the other way though

[hybrid panther]

anyone else have like 7 fps in the swamps but 80+ everywhere else?

[quartz cairn]

yes, there is a chance of finding ||flametal|| at their camps

[stable bough]

i have around 10-20 fps whenever there's a storm and above 100 normally

[quartz cairn]

||focus on the center mass, there is higher chance of finding fortresses and thus fm pillars||

[dark rover]

Good afternoon, I can't add modifiers through the “Valheim dedicated server” even though I write the modifier in notepad. Does anyone have any suggestions to help me?

[quartz cairn]

[subtle parrot]

Are you having trouble with like missing gear or inventory items? Have you tried sleeping before logging out? You might want to try asking in #xbox-bugs-discussion i play on xbox, but doesn't seem like an issue I've ever had.

[gilded prairie]

hi guys, quick question can you move the cart up the hill with or without items on it

[subtle parrot]

Depends on how much stuff is in it and how steep the hill is

[gilded prairie]

pretty steep and let's say I would fill it fully w copper ore

[subtle parrot]

You'll want to make a path to go up to make it easier

[gilded prairie]

aight thank youu thank you

[cosmic cloud]

Hello, everyone. I have a question about recovering bodies. I have not really noticed this issue prior to Ashlands, but I was certainly not dying as frequently prior to playing more with the Ashlands release.

The behavior that seems unexpected to me is that upon recovering my body, the tombstone corpse is full of inventory which it seems I could not have had on me when I died.

We do have casual death on the server, so when I respawn, my equipped items remain in my inventory. I do consume food and a few potions before I run back, but I consume them - I am not carrying them. So, the only things I am carrying and that are taking up inventory slots are things I was carrying when I died.

I get back to my body, I am not auto-picking up things on the way. I still am only carrying things I had equipped on me when I died. I try to recover my items. I cannot do it in one go because there are more stacks of things on the corpse than I have inventory slots for. And because I am running for my life, this is an increasingly frustrating problem.

Sometimes, even if I have the slots, the items recovered are too heavy, even with the belt (which I still have on and equipped because of casual death setting) and the boost from the corpse run. I was not encumbered when I died. Why is my corpse encumbered? It seems like the tombstone body is picking up full stacks of rocks and wood and things after I respawn with my equipped items elsewhere.

Is anybody else having this problem? Am I missing something I should be doing?

[tepid gale]

Is there a way to rotate this 90 degrees to the left or would that require a mod?

[supple panther]

Yeah you need a mod for that.

Like the Infinity Hammer mod, or whatever it's called...

[young trout]

So can you have a dedicated server with more than 10 players on it without some special modded version of a hosted server? I rented one on Gportal with 20 but it says I cant make my valheim server 20.

[lilac coyote]

No, only 10. The game is balanced for coop of around 5-6 anyway.

[distant charm]

do whisp laterns only work in mistlands

do whisp fountains only work in mistlands

[cosmic cloud]

Wisp fountains work in other biomes. We have placed them in a few places. Swamps are dark a lot.
Wisp lanterns also give light in other biomes, but there is not mist to clear.

[uncut mirage]

2* charred warrior hits for over 200hp xD

[haughty plover]

Can someone explain to me, when summoned skeletons despawn and when not?
Sometime, they die the moment I (or a friend) logs out or goes through a portal ans sometimes they stay and can be "used" again.
I couldn't find a satisfactory explanation yet

[opal obsidian]

Best armor set in the Ashlands? Ask armor seems pretty strong, js wanna know everyones thoughts?

[subtle parrot]

Depends on playstyle, if you're going full on melee it's probably best to run full flametal gear for the armor with ashen cape. Probably best to combine some embla with ask armor for mobility and decent armor stats for a mage build.

[primal dove]

Sooooo..... ||2 star morgens|| are kind of a nightmare, eh?

[distant charm]

can u take dwarfen lanterns without them getting mad

[rare rock]

yeah you can, just press e on them and you grab em

[uncut mirage]

Not much info on this. They might last as long as items that get dropped in the world
Worth testing

[rare rock]

holy crap.. I just discovered there are really cheap spikewalls made from ashwood and the damage they do is absolutely insane

[uncut mirage]

Armor wise Flametal 142 armor with ash cape is pretty safe for Ashalnds full upgraded
Ask is good if you like dodging or parrying

[rare rock]

these spikes are so cheap compared to the dverger ones and so much better holy crap

dverger spikewalls do 0.4 damage to me per hit

ashwood 25 wtf

[buoyant peak]

They never despawn, and the oldest one dies when the limit is reached

[rare rock]

they definitely despawn when you go trough a portal though

or go in/out a dungeon

[haughty plover]

I didn´t mean it in a time sense but upon logging out or going through a portal.
Sometimes they stay, sometimes they die.

[distant charm]

Does this mean, no soft tissue here?

[buoyant peak]

Don't remember if I've ever gone through a portal with existing skeletons but dying does still leave them.

Although the "sometimes" from the message above makes it seem like a glitch

[rare rock]

yep

in some of the crates that can be in the camps there can still be a bit of soft tissue though

[uncut mirage]

only skulls have soft tissue because its BRAINS 🙂

[distant charm]

howmuch etir does 1 soft tissue give

[uncut mirage]

I think its 1:1

[bold lynx]

whats the point of fishing in new areas with new bait? like what do I get out of that basic meadows guys dont give

[true steeple]

If you catch every fish you can get a unique reward, and angler fish in mistlands are used to make food there

[bold lynx]

is that about it tho? do they give more raw fish the later the biome/bait at least?

[true steeple]

I don’t think so, but I haven’t caught any fish in later biomes than black forest

[bold lynx]

o

[rare rock]

fish in later biomes do give more meat per fish, still not really worth fishing in most cases though

[still solar]

I arrived in Mistland and I always get lost, am I forced to make a new base in Mistland or can I use my old one from spawn?

[true steeple]

You don’t need to make a new base but there’s no reason not to if you’d like to move.

[still solar]

Will I have to take some boat trips?

[true steeple]

Yes, to move metal

[astral musk]

i try to start a new world and then valheim says it isnt responding. anyone know how to fix?

[true steeple]

You just need to wait for it to start responding again.
This has been happening since ashlands released.

[bold lynx]

how do I get a lot of tar? growths drop like nothing

[rare rock]

you can drain the liquid from a tar pool and then you can grab the tar from the pools themselves

[bold lynx]

thank you!

will tar respawn?

[rare rock]

the mobs do, the items in the pool do not

do not build a plains base near a tar pool

[gloomy phoenix]

Is there benefits to using the command to delete all ground items on the map? like improving the performance of the game or anything?

[lilac coyote]

It'll obviously improve performance but items away from bases despawn after a few days anyway.

[gloomy phoenix]

They don't if they are by any benches anywhere on the map though right?

[lilac coyote]

Well, any player base item within 20m.

[gloomy phoenix]

I have a dedicated server, I was thinking just as a general maintenance it might be worth it to grab the map and clear it once a week or so

[gloomy phoenix]

oh, it's not just benches? it's any player made structure?

[lilac coyote]

No, any player base item.

[haughty plover]

Some situations were like this:
I had the skeletons trapped at a draugr spawn (for leveling Blood Magic) and the portal was quite a bit away. Sometimes I had to resummon the sekeltons when I came back, sometimes not, even after logging out and back in the next day.
Another situation: A friend had his skeletons trapped near our base (again for leveling purposes) and they stayed as he logged out in the base (I was still near them). The next day another friend trapped his skeletons and went through a portal in the base and immediately his skeletons died.
I can´t find a pattern. Or maybe it is just a glitch?

[buoyant peak]

In the first case, it might just be that they were killed while you were away.

But in the other cases it does sound like a glitch because of how inconsistent it seems

[scenic river]

so i`m pretty new to hosting and i have the problem that i want to shut down the server but i dont have the terminal open where the server runs anymore (i restarted my main pc) how can i open it again and how can i schedule to shut down the server periodicaly ?
thanks in advance
[UBUNTU SERVER]

[willow badge]

probably better asked in #dedicated-server

[scenic river]

ah thank you i did not see the channel

[remote juniper]

hey is anyone able to help me i had a character who got deleted and i can't recover them

cuz i never deleted the character the game crashed as i died and i lost it

[rain stag]

Can the Ashland spawners be sniped by the Arabalest? I got the Spawner event just as I made beachhead and I think there's too many to take on in a straight fight with my mistwalker and Bonemass Buff

[still solar]

How did he get access to this ''floating camera''?

[gloomy phoenix]

I'm going to be doing a huge build, I'm curious about 2 things related to the burden on a pc....

1. is it more resource intensive too be around altered terrain, or to just have more stone walls stacked higher?
2. is this like other games where when 2 build items are against eachother it doesn't render the connected sides? (so if is it better to fill in hollow spaces using more objects or is it better to leave them hollow(where the internal walls will still be rendered) and use less objects?)

[lilac coyote]

The walls will be adding more instances to the game so that will be more intense.

[gloomy phoenix]

ok thanks

[buoyant peak]

Freefly command

[pulsar condor]

should i still be on the public test build or is the gamepass version fixed?

[lilac coyote]

Eh? Fixed in what way? Both versions are the same.

[pulsar condor]

idk i remember there being some issues with xbox when ashlands launched

[lilac coyote]

There was a short delay in the Ashlands update being pushed to XBox but that was it.

[pulsar condor]

ah okay thank you

[fringe sundial]

If you have cloud backups (they should be enabled by default), then you should be able to use those. I don't know the exact process, but that is part of the reason the game autosaves.

[bold lynx]

how shud I deal with deathsquitos (I wanna move to the plains)?

[fringe sundial]

they are "glass cannons". strike them first, block/parry or dodge. if they don't hit you when your guard is down, they aren't so bad. bows are your best bet to hit first.

[bold lynx]

I mean they arent hard its just kinda like I wanna feel safe in the walls of my base

Do I just have to always deal with them?

[fringe sundial]

if you "spawn proof" your base, they souldn't be a issue

[bold lynx]

thanks, how?

[fringe sundial]

most people use work benches or campfires. the "buildable" area of a workbench is a area that prevents spawning so having a bunch with overlapping circles, makes a spawn proof area.

wiki and YT would likely be very helpfull.

[bold lynx]

thanks

[tepid gale]

Ive mined completly around and under a silver vein but it isnt popping after the first piece breaks. Is there a secret to getting it to do that or is it just random chance?

[buoyant peak]

Mine it

[rain stag]

Any tips to sneak through the Ashlands until I can build the Stone Portal to bring in the big guns?

[celest narwhal]

Not sure if this is the right channel, but I'm getting a bug where any time I want to click an item in my inventory that is in a stack of greater than one item, it makes me split stack instead of actually letting me pick up the item to move it around. No mods. If it's not a bug and actually a keyboard hotkey, I can't figure out what I'm hitting. :(

[tepid gale]

Youre not shift clicking right?

[cloud crown]

i put a picture in screenshots. how would people reccomend i defend my base without having to build a wall though the ocean. the monsters just swim around

[opal crescent]

my fps is so low when im in my base does stone walls and glass takes so much?

[celest narwhal]

I'll triple check next time I'm on, but it's for sure not something I'm doing intentionally. I do hit keys I don't mean to often though, so that could be it honestly. I'll report back when I can

[tepid gale]

best weapon to go into plains for the first time with?

or will my lvl 4 mace cary me like it has since I got it?

[compact heath]

which mace, frostner is definitely great if thats the one

[supple panther]

Frostner is good, but i recommend using an atgeir against Fulings

[tepid gale]

Did I stumble on mistlands? I havent been or seen it before so I dont know.

[compact heath]

Draugr Fang bow is also amazing or Plains, Iron Atgeir still handy too, Silver Sword works (Iron Mace is one of the best weapons for one specific plains enemy)

[supple panther]

Yeah don't go there just yet lol

[compact heath]

yes you are correct

[amber torrent]

Hi guys, i went to ashlands before the update and i mine some "glowing metal" and melted them. What can i do with this stuffs now? It's just a trash item now?

[terse cedar]

can you get under the copper deposits that are near the water?

[compact heath]

legacy useless item

was a way to prevent people from getting easy materials without doing proper ashlands

thats why they changed them, I have some from many years ago when Valheim went into EA

[tribal oxide]

i need a retrieval team

anyone able

[terse cedar]

these copper deposits never drop for me

[compact heath]

they are incredibly hard to fully drop

[magic spindle]

Anyone else get disconnected from ur friends server while playing on Xbox

[bold lynx]

why wont this ground go any lower

but other parts will

[hollow fossil]

Can anyone help with my valheim world being laggy for my friends? We do have a lot of buildings and portals but is there anyway to make it better or more bearable

[terse cedar]

I actually got it the big node to drop by mining out a small (2 piece) node that was also hovering in the air itself, not connected to the big node or anything else

[compact heath]

there is a limit to how much you can raise or lower terrain, I think 8m

[bold lynx]

is there any game reason for that? thats honestly super annoying

[compact heath]

I think performance would be impacted if its unlimited or much bigger, thats just a guess I'm not sure, you can get a mod to change this

[bold lynx]

how to make these eat, theres literally a stack of turnip seeds below these 2

nope, they are supposed to be a rare mob i think

[supple panther]

Is there enough space for them to walk around? I've noticed that like wolves for example, have to be in the right position for them to eat.

[gilded tapir]

Wasn't sure If there was something with console commands

[quick fiber]

chickens are like boars, you can stack them in a tiny ass box and as long as they have food in front they'll just keep pumpin children

also if the mates are in range

[supple panther]

They won't eat if they're standing on the food. The food has to be in front of them

Maybe you should try a different location?

[quick fiber]

holy shit i discovered the source

[supple panther]

Or just give them some more room

[quick fiber]

its embarassing to say but they wont breed on stone beams

[supple panther]

Ah, I see

[fringe sundial]

I am sure there is a spawn command...but increasing there frequency, there isn't a command specific to that afaik.

[quick fiber]

i should add this to the wiki

[fringe sundial]

@gilded tapir you could change|| time of day to night or stormy ||and see if that helps.

[grizzled hazel]

just a question once you tame something will it be untamed by any means

[gilded tapir]

all good no worries 🙂

[supple panther]

Nope

I mean, if you want to get rid of them, just use a butcher knife... but no, they cannot be untamed from my knowledge

[grizzled hazel]

ahh good to know thank have like 5 lox scared if they start destroy base if i dont feed them

[supple panther]

Yeah no worries, feeding is only important if you want to breed them

👍

[bold lynx]

how do I get outdoor lamposts? do they all need resin?

[amber torrent]

I can use for decoration now hahaha, tnks man

[hot trail]

did you get help

[tribal oxide]

No it took nearly all my potions and I ended up having to forge new armor and weapons to get them but I did get my gear

[hot trail]

you got your stuff back thats good. I saw your message pretty late

[hollow mantle]

Is there any way to reduce the performance hit from snowstorms in the mountains? Is it a graphical setting?

[late gull]

hello

for farming flax and barley should i also have a 50/50 ratio of crop collected and replanted

[quasi mirage]

how do I open the ashlands fortress doors?

and the doors in the middle

[summer canyon]

Yes, thats a good bet, as long as you have roughly 10-15% more space than you need (to account for misspaced plants). You might also benefit from creating a bit of a stockpile/buffer of crop to replace stuff if it gets destroyed, or to boost output if you need more barley than you have (risking throwing off your 50/50). Of course if you have a loot multiplier on your server, you may benefit from choosing an exact number to replant (100 barley every time for example), as the calculations can be a bit annoying on the fly.

If you can pull off exact farming, then epic, but I find you'll be harvesting and replanting so much, you'll want to give yourself some leeway

[mystic solar]

Make a battering ram. Alternatively you can build a wooden ladder to get onto the walls, and dig underneath the middle tower to get in. This bit might get fixed in a future update though.

[quasi mirage]

oh

[runic forum]

Is it possible to run game with dx12?

[keen zodiac]

go look for them during night and when it's raining and thunderstorming

[gilded tapir]

kekw yeah thanks.

old news. still very low rate

[supple panther]

Also, Serpents will not aggro if you don't look at them, for some reason... so I recommend looking around while sailing

[keen zodiac]

find a levi and afk there, you'll eventually get one 🙂

[supple panther]

Well now that I think about, it might have been patched...

I don't know

[keen zodiac]

tamed animals behaviour on boat should be changed, they can move irrespective to the harpoon leash while standing on the boat.

[late gull]

thanks!

[true steeple]

Level ground moves terrain to the height the player is at, so if you stand on lower terrain it should be removed
If that still doesn’t work, killing the first boss allows you to lower terrain

It isn’t a problem anywhere past the first boss

[covert perch]

dug everything surrounding and the vein won't explode :C was this patched out? recently started playing again

[true steeple]

It’s not been patched, but terrain too close will stop it from breaking

[covert perch]

icic, I will try breaking more surrounding stuff

[vale ledge]

i need help

[true steeple]

With what?

[vale ledge]

Hello, the boss moder, he is not leaving and because of the wells in the mountains and a golem, they waxed me and I lost all my equipment and weapons and since the boss does not leave and he gets further and further away, I can only wait for him to leave and It's taking a long time, could you help me pick up my things please? thank you so much

[gentle harbor]

is there any material that the obliterator does not damage?

[true steeple]

The game never tells you, but rolling gives you invincibility for a short time. With some stamina food (even some berries help) this could make retrieving your items much easier

[small ridge]

is there any way to fix this? I spent so much time on this house :(

[pliant lodge]

if all else fails try the Body Recovery Squad in #1024264966712340510

[gentle harbor]

the floor needs to have support under it, the closest floor piece to it is red meaning anything placed next to it will break

[small ridge]

alright... I'll figure it out, thanks! :D

[vale ledge]

that's only for 60 or 30 seconds if I remember correctly and it takes me much longer to run, plus as it is in a pit on the ground my stuff is a golem inside that would kill me with one blow and I need to do some construction to get out because the pit had a hidden first floor.

[small ridge]

it helped immediately, lol.

this is gonna be a weird looking house XD

[gentle harbor]

the colour of the building pieces are pretty much like a traffic light, blue means its connected to the floor so that piece is safe, green is also safe to build on, yellow orange means its getting a bit worse and red just means that if u place something next to it it'll break cuz it doesnt have enough support to the ground

[vale ledge]

thanks

[small ridge]

thank you so much, I thought I just couldn't build there or my shit was bugged :( but you saved me! ^w^

[distant charm]

best mistland weapons?

[grizzled smelt]

how can I add admins to my dedicated server on xbox version? there is no adminlist.txt file

[subtle parrot]

Pc game pass or actual xbox?

[grizzled smelt]

game pass

[subtle parrot]

Depends on play style, himminafl is good and mistwalker is both useful and good

[distant charm]

u can also stun with middle mouse button same as other atgirs right

[carmine river]

frostnir is a great weapon to start the mists in. mistwalker is fantastic after that and good into the ashlands.

[subtle parrot]

The spin attack? I play on xbox so i assume middle click is just the secondary attack? But yes it does the spin attack

[carmine river]

could also try delving into magic

[distant charm]

better than himminafl?

[carmine river]

i like it better since you can use a shield with it and parry them easier and with less damage taken. and the frost effect slow them down making them easier

[keen zodiac]

after digging out everything around it you'll have to start hitting the actual silver vein, then only it'll pop and the whole thing will collapse. it'll still float in the air even if nothing is touching it.

[carmine river]

and if using the hammer, its special attack with push them back. time it right and they will enver touch you. great for baiting bugs to the dungeon entrance platform

[distant charm]

what shield do u reccomend

[covert perch]

yeye I ended up smacking the tip that was closest to the ground and the whole thing went KABOOM

[carmine river]

if youre good with timing, bucklers are best for parry. regular shield will have good parry and less penalty if you miss time the parry. i believe i entered with the black metal shield and them made carapace shield as soon as possible

[subtle parrot]

The carapace buckler is great

[carmine river]

magic can also be really good against the seekers but wearing the cloth armor for the mana recovery makes you squishy and the blood shield has no armor, so it takes full damage from attacks agaisnt it, but as long as it has one hit point, it will absorb all damage from a single attack

[candid dawn]

is there any command to reset your known building? if question makes sense

[subtle parrot]

Like the recipes your character knows for build pieces?

[hybrid panther]

Has anyone got a solution for the Swamps having dogshit fps?

[carmine river]

i get better fps in the swamp than my own base

[buoyant peak]

Recipes

ResetKnownItems

[hybrid panther]

Im the exact opposite which is fun. I get 80 fps in my base, 60 in new terrain and 7 in the swamps

[candid dawn]

thanks

[vale ledge]

Do you know why the potions are with an x ​​and they are useless?

[carmine river]

im getting as low as 20 in parts of my base and i cant figure out whats causing it

[hybrid panther]

you got a fuck ton of fireplaces or other light sources?

[carmine river]

possibly, but it looks great!

[hybrid panther]

that could be one issue

[carmine river]

i need help getting some dang blood stones. ive raided 3 or 4 forts and only got a single blood stone

[plush rapids]

Does upgrading the world from Mistlands to Ashlands cause the grave markers to be deleted? I cant see my body anymore on the map or at the location

[subtle parrot]

There's a cool down time before you can use another mead, you can't use them back to back or different sizes of the same kind

[hearty plume]

You're going to need more support. Since you're in the black forest, core wood is probably your best bet, just take a few of the pine (not fir) trees down. That being said, you're going to have a really hard time with the roof, even with core wood.

[thorn spire]

that's a big house. It's less than ideal but your best bet might be to put a single column of earth in the dead centre, then either use corewood columns or plant a pine tree.

[subtle parrot]

Some basic wooden central structure will do, looks like it's only around 20mX20m wide. Depending on where they starts the roof line it shouldn't be an issue.

I play on two different computers on a dedicated server, and when I just logged in to my 2nd computer my map is gone and I spawned at the standing stones

I have all my equipment and inventory but otherwise its like I've never played here

Any idea what would cause this? Its a steam cloud character

[uneven fulcrum]

My world isnot loading?

i just bought the game and it crashes when starting a world

[void socket]

When initially building the world it takes a while to populate

[uneven fulcrum]

for like 15 mins? and then crash XD?

[void socket]

15 minutes seems excessive for sure

And should not actually crash, though I've seen it go unresponsive

[uneven fulcrum]

yeah on a high end pc i just got like waiiiit smth isnt going right

[void socket]

When I make a new world I always alt tab and make sure to not click back on it for a few minutes

[rare rock]

I noticed that if you use lingering stamina that you cannot use normal stamina potions anymore

is that also the case for lingering health potions?

[rain stag]

Do campire fires actively prevent spawns when they are unlit? Or do I need to put workbenches?

[subtle parrot]

They do not need to be lit

[subtle parrot]

Alt tabbing can cause issues, just fyi. It's best to not touch it, no alt tab no clicking randomly and just give it time.

How do I find swamp fish? for some reason every swamp coastline is darn black forest and the internal pools in the biome never have fish

[halcyon crag]

look for the pools near the wraith huts/abandoned huts

[rare rock]

these?

the only fishes I see near swamp biomes are trollfish ;=;

[velvet bramble]

Anyone know what these bone piles are called? How do I get them or what is the spawn code?

[odd garnet]

Can someone please tell me why I can't build any more floor pieces besides the ones circled red? They keep breaking. Thanks.

[halcyon crag]

lack of vertical support, the corner ones are taking support from 2 sides so they have just enough to stay

[hearty plume]

||I'm trying to build some scaffolding to mine a buggy flammetal node, but my shield generator keeps randomly breaking. It's not taking damage, and it is built on a grausten floor. Does anyone know what might be causing this?||

[halcyon crag]

if you snap 2 more pieces and fill the gap it may hold, if not you'll need to support with a pillar from below or use ironwood to hold them up

[halcyon crag]

there's a known bug with some grausten support, probably that

[hearty plume]

Is it just Grausten? I could probably just replace that floor section with stone or black marble.

[halcyon crag]

that's what i'd try

[hearty plume]

thanks

[hybrid panther]

the game is unplayable in the swamps man. 5 fps is the max the game goes to

[hollow helm]

why did i just find a piece of bronze next to a cultist in a frost cave?

they can drop from certain things, brazier prolly

Braziers drop bronze, and the wood doors sometimes drop iron.

yo sick, ty

[halcyon crag]

i forget do the torches ever drop anything?

[hollow helm]

how can i get like 50 coins the fastest? just defeated yagluth

you can def solo eikthyr if you have a bow and a bunch of flint and fire arrows

also make sure you turn the music all the way up during the fight

it's a banger

[rare rock]

I've visited damn 3 swamp biomes now and none of them have any swamp fish in them

fishing is the most infuriating thing in this game xD

[quartz cairn]

sure let's go

[grizzled smelt]

the debugmode isnt working on dedicated servers?

[willow ermine]

I used the find devcommands to look for some things on my map and it added greyed out pins on my map. Is there any way to remove them? I cant right click them like normal pins to remove?

[subtle parrot]

You're using sticky fishing bait?

[rare rock]

the bait is not the problem its finding a single swamp fish

[subtle parrot]

Welp giant herring would be what you're wanting then i guess. You need sticky bait, and to be near the shores but in the water a ways and cast out, they may take a while to show up but they're not just floating up near the surface where you can see them like most fish.

[odd garnet]

Guys it seems like to me that dying is inevitable in this game, does that mean my skill points will always remain mediocre? 😭

[subtle parrot]

The skills are helpful, but they really aren't a big deal until late game, and even then you'll be fine with mediocre skills

[odd garnet]

Thanks, I just feel really frustated whenever I die because of the skill point deduction lol

[subtle parrot]

That's understandable, no shame in lowering the death penalty in the world modifier menu

[rare rock]

fish dont just spawn around your bobber in this game though, you gotta find some first to catch them

[eternal badge]

Anyone know the spawn code for the charred chests?

[subtle parrot]

I didn't say they did, i said you gotta go fish in deeper water near the shores of the swamp and they don't hang out near the surface of the water so the likelihood of you seeing them before trying to fish for them is extremely low. Go to a deep area of water near the edge of a swamp and ocean and cast out the sticky bait and wait. That's how i caught them.

[night kiln]

Anybody got tips for spotting archers in the swamp? i am in a 5-10 death loop where i keep dying from a random arrow out of nowhere

[true steeple]

Try to listen for enemies' aggro sounds

[subtle parrot]

gurgle gurgle raaahr

[rare rock]

every coastline around every swamp I've seen so far did not count as a swamp biome for some reason though, is this normal?

[subtle parrot]

Sounds like weird world generation, not much can be done about that, but if you can find an ocean right next to a swamp even if there's no shallows and it's just ocean that would be better than casting out in black forest shallows

[ornate violet]

also things like chopping wood, mining stone make sound so enemies in your area will start walking towards you so you should look around you from time to time even if you are staying in the same area

[marble roost]

You can always lower the death penalty if it worries you, but no its not inevitable I've completed the game without dying on increased difficulty

[distant charm]

do crops grow if u rnot in the area

[rare rock]

yes

[loud linden]

Valheim plants are nowhere near as needy as the tamed animals.

[wooden haven]

If I scrap spikes that I made, I never get the material back. Is this intentional, or a bug?

[distant charm]

same with sap extractors?

[loud linden]

Yep.

[cyan wave]

why do my game keep crashing when trying to load a world. btw just bought the game

[true steeple]

It's not actually crashing, it just stays on one frame for so long while generating a world that windows thinks it has crashed
You just need to wait

[cyan wave]

so when this comes i just let it be and it will load the world?

[marble roost]

Yes, just say wait for program to respond. Preferably just don't touch anything while it loads and then it (should) also not prompt you about it not responding

[loud linden]

Waiting is your first step. What specs are you running?

[cyan wave]

it worked thx guys!

[rare rock]

found a tetra cave and its just this :/

[subtle parrot]

The tetra cave i found a few weeks before the ashlands ptb was also acting weird about spawning, they eventually showed up though.

[sweet tree]

hey im new, how can I play on a world with 1 or 2 of my steam friend on a world ?

[true steeple]

If you're on steam, just join them through the friends list like any other game. If not make sure they enable crossplay, then they can give you a join code that you enter in the IP box when adding a server

[sweet tree]

do you need a good pc to host the session if you use this method

[subtle parrot]

I think having a good internet connection is more important

[true steeple]

Nothing better than what you need to run the game

How long does the stun of a jade weapon last?

[buoyant peak]

Five seconds

[rare rock]

is it worth using jade weapons over lightning or blood?

does it also prevent enemies from attacking?

[supple panther]

Nope

Only prevents them from moving. But they can still attack

(Believe me I know)

[buoyant peak]

If you attack their front

[supple panther]

Yeah, that's true.

[supple panther]

Lightning is good for hordes of enemies, because it has that nice chain lightning effect. But I usually go for the jade weapons, the rooting effect has saved me way more times than I would like to admit...

[serene tangle]

Akshuly! Some enemies might have wider angle of attack... but in 95+% it's true.

[buoyant peak]

Either way, better to just attack from their backs and avoid frustration

Speed (asksvin set) is actually a good combo with jade weapons

[serene tangle]

I can't even remember any such attack from enemy, who is not a boss

[supple panther]

And I don't recommend using the blood weapons... they're... not that great.

[buoyant peak]

They only are for ripper and slayer

Rest is not that worth it

[supple panther]

Yep

[bronze fjord]

anyone able to help with a boss Queen fight?

[vestal coral]

Fully upped Mistwalker seems like it would perform better than Lightning Nidhögg in Ashlands or am I mistaken? The frost is a very nice property in general but also strong against baddies in Ashlands

[supple panther]

Take the root chestplate, carapace helmet and trousers for armor

[uncut mirage]

I switched to Nidhogg lightning, more dps

[supple panther]

Root chestplate is good because it provides resistance to pierce damage

[bronze fjord]

@supple panther i was more looking for a buddy to play with and fight it. i got that set up already. just dont want to take it on alone

[supple panther]

Ah. I see. In that case, you might want to try asking in #1024264966712340510 . You might find some people there

[bronze fjord]

thank you

[vestal coral]

I'll most likely craft that aswell if nothing else, for the cool-factor.. So I'll try it out aswell to see if it feels better or worse 🙂

[night kiln]

Does upgrading a station unlock new recipes? Or just more gear upgrades

[uncut mirage]

I'm now using berserker axe though because its op and my axe is only 60 and my sword is 100

[last osprey]

There aren't that many enemies with frost weakness in Ashlands. Only bonemaws, voltures and lava blobs iirc. The slow is nice but not essential.
For maximum damage the silver sword actually outperforms both because most Ashlands enemies are weak to spirit and it costs 25% less stam to swing.

[uncut mirage]

not tried silver sword, didn't even think of it

[last osprey]

it does 45 spirit damage at level 4, more than any other weapon. That and the low stam cost make it a killing machine in Ashlands.

[uncut mirage]

frostner is spirit too

[buoyant peak]

Both

[last osprey]

it is but it only does 20 spirit damage regardless of level. Still usable since frost + mace knockback is a very powerful melee combo, but not enough dps to keep up with Mistwalker or Nidhogg.

silver sword is all about taking advantage of the spirit weakness most Ashlands enemies have

[jolly turtle]

I've been playing the same world since the start, and my friends (not mine) performance in the world is kinda sketchy. Is there a command or update I should run to make it run smoother? I know this sort of thing has happened before and I haven't been playing it for quite some time

[serene tangle]

I checked in calculator (so, precise calculations!), Frostner is pretty good in Ashlands

[jolly turtle]

This was the first time I booted up the game since ashlands, so maybe it'll run smoother when it isn't the first time after re-sorting everything again

[serene tangle]

not too good, but might work very well as backup weapon (e.g. if one dies) or even as main weapon initially

[serene tangle]

optterain command can help if you did heavy terrain leveling

[jolly turtle]

It's worse where my base is, which had a lot of flattening

[serene tangle]

you need to execute that command while being near the place where that terrain leveling happened.

[jolly turtle]

So it's within local area. It's not an issue with having too many building objects or clipping them into each other on an older version?

[quasi mirage]

how long do basalt bombs last?

[carmine river]

idk if this is the correct channel, but is it just me or do vineberries take a very very long time before they grow another cluster? i swear ive had some on one wall not give any more grapes since the they were planted over a week ago

[vestal coral]

They reset every time you logout so basically treat them as "just planted" when you log in next time. It's a bug

[marble roost]

30-40 sec I think

[quasi mirage]

noted haha

I'll have to get land flametal ore veins

[carmine river]

do flametal veins spawn back? cause if not, wouldnt that mean theres a finite amount

[rare rock]

is this useful for anything

[uneven glen]

is valhiem cross play?

[rare rock]

is it really just a worse bukeberry?

[quasi mirage]

I dont think so they behave like leviathans

[carmine river]

i could have swarn i saw a spire in a place i had previously mined

[jolly turtle]

how do I pull up the console for valhiem so I can optterian?

it wasn't what I remembered it was

[rare rock]

wow, all 3 main health foods from the ashlands require ask meat >_>

thats just... really devs?

[carmine river]

whats wrong with that?

[last osprey]

you can tame them. And they lay eggs so they're as easy to breed as chickens.

[carmine river]

not to mention they are beyong plentiful in the ashlans

[uncut mirage]

I agree, they could have used Bonemaw meat since that's harder to get but NOOOOO

[carmine river]

it is curious they dont have any meals with bonemaw meat

[uncut mirage]

lazy

[last osprey]

we already have 4 hp foods that all beat out Mistland hp food, we don't need more

[rare rock]

having to rely on 1 mob for 3 types of meat is a real bloody hassle even if you can tame them

[carmine river]

think the north will have larger wolves jsut called dire wolf

[uncut mirage]

so many different combinations and possibilities. Shame!

[carmine river]

i havnt been able to use all the meat i get just from exploring ashlands, let alone making meat collection the point of my expedition

[rare rock]

so unless I am missing something the 3 main health foods in ashlands are mashed meat, svinstew and piquant pie?

[carmine river]

the one thing i have trouble getting is vulture meat. i swear when i want to farm them, they stay off shore over the water, but when im heading to a fort, i get swarmed every couple min from nowhere

[pearl mortar]

Yes. Also cooked meats. Tail / vulture / maw

[last osprey]

cooked bonemaw meat still beats honey glazed chicken so it's great for your initial landing

[rare rock]

really wish serpent meat wasn't so bloody heavy though 😭

[uncut mirage]

If you take all 3 HP you still get pretty good Stamina and if you use Ask armor its pretty balanced

[pearl mortar]

I just eat one on my way out and bring other lighter foods along

[rare rock]

I shouldve used it though, I've been chugging lox pies, glazed chickens and misthare supreme this entire ashlands biome

[last osprey]

go hit a rock with your pickaxe. You'll get swarmed by every enemy within a large area.

[carmine river]

speaking of which, whats with skeletons, having no ears, hearing you from half way across the ashlands. holy hell harvesting sucks

[rare rock]

also I planted vines on the left and right side of my base but for some reason the right side grew much further and produces berries 🤔

[last osprey]

it just means you can clear out a large area fast to actually mine in (relative) peace afterwards.

[carmine river]

ive tried that but they spawn back so fast even after destroying spawners

[marble roost]

finite, same as copper, tin, and silver

[carmine river]

technically speaking, wouldnt the heavy amount of ash on the ground, like lose snow, act as a sound abosrbing laying, making sounds lighter

[carmine river]

at least the other ores have tons of spawn locations

[last osprey]

there's no shortage of flametal in the Ashlands ime. And it also spawns in fortress chests in pretty decent quantities.

[carmine river]

even when youre playing on a server with 3 or 4 people?

[marble roost]

yup. Both flammetal and ||gems ||are pretty limited in Ashlands. Tough for multiplayer servers for sure

[last osprey]

Yeah. I've barely explored half of my Ashlands and i have enough metal to craft and upgrade everything (just missing some gems) and i've used a couple stacks for building on top of that.
Since you can only upgrade elemental weapons to level 2 rn the only thing that really takes a large amount is flametal armor (and i'd be very surprised if most players opt for that over ask or embla robes).

The only weapon that really needs a lot is Slayer, the other all require 1-2 stacks at most to craft and upgrade.

[marble roost]

Eh I wouldn't be surprised. New players tend to gravitate towards heavy armor from what I see most

[livid flare]

need help. I died and i returned to my body but it wont let me retrive any items

[carmine river]

weight limit or literally wont let you

[livid flare]

no weight limit, it wont even bring up the inventory pop up. Is this a bug? had all my max gear on that body lol

[last osprey]

true, but by the time you make it to Ashlands you aren't really new anymore.
And even level 3 carapace armor struggles once you enter ashlands, so you kinda have to learn to dodge at that point even if you made it through the Mistlands without it.

[livid flare]

must have been a bug, i logged out then logged back in then it worked.. idk..

[marble roost]

Sometimes game won't let you interact with things (chests, doors, tombstones). Especially on multiplayerservers

Relogging usually fixes it tho yea

[livid flare]

i remember having thast issue with chests,,, just never my tombstone. Good to know now though for future.

[proven heart]

Anyone seen this happen before? The Root set says its only giving +14 following a death. I do have a few mods including Epic Loot, so I'm not sure if it'd be related to that or if it's a vanilla bug

[rare rock]

bloody hell valheim hardmode is mercyless at times man, 1 star charred warrior oneshot me with 230+ hp and a maxed out set of flametal armor and the ashen cape 😭

[true steeple]

With later starred enemies, dodging the attack by walking, sprinting, rolling or jumping is usually better than blocking or parrying it.

[rare rock]

as if I wasnt aware of that by now

[dry zodiac]

Yo guys, its my 1st playthrough of valheim, and i've been wondering whether if there is any kind of dungeon in the plains?

[true steeple]

There are sealed towers. They’re very rare and not required for progression, but if you find Hildir she can give you map markers for them.

[pale cosmos]

why is it not working

[true steeple]

That’s a medium stamina mead cooldown. You can’t drink any stamina mead until that runs out.

[uncut mirage]

If you want better stamina regen you need lingering stamina potion

[true steeple]

Make sure you’re always rested too

[pale cosmos]

ok thanks

i dont understand

[true steeple]

What don’t you understand? The stamina mead regenerates stamina rapidly over a short time.

[errant plaza]

Hey guys, so ive been in a predicament. Ive been using sword currently just landed on ashlands and now we have the option between the flametal armor or the asksvin armor and i was wondering wich one i should be picking up if im using the nidhogg

[pearl mortar]

Stamina mead is an instant stamina recovery, where you can recover during actions. Uf you got time to regen, tasty mead is a faster regen and has no cool down

But you gotta actually let it regen normally

[still solar]

Is it only planted in Mistland?

[subtle parrot]

Yup

[urban anchor]

❓ Eggs question:

• does anyone know the distance the eggs must be from heat source in order to NOT hatch?

[silver berry]

is Ashlands always only this big? Seed is pre Ashlands and was never explored anywhere close to ashlands prior to the update

[true steeple]

That’s normal

[silver berry]

ok thanks. I was getting a bit worried because of the placeholder landmass prior to the update being way larger lol

[tired notch]

Has to be away enough so you don’t see the “fire” effect in your top right.

[fringe sundial]

if it shows (cold) it will not hatch. If it shows (warm) it will begin the process. what meter length away (specifically) I don't know. I do know they wont hatch in a cluster (they have to be single eggs on the ground or floor piece near enough to a fire source to be (warm).

[urban anchor]

did some "recent" patch changes how beehices check for space ?

I did this pattern before (maybe 1-2 years back) but now it ways "need more space" ?!

[fringe sundial]

not sure on that one. I always gave a 3x3 area per hive and never had an issue. are the hives sitting on top of the roof piece or just below? my guess would be if they are below, that might be the issue.

[true steeple]

My friend once buried hives underground which let them work while close together

[frail cave]

I am getting Gjall's spawning way more than ever before, I know the wiki says they're only supposed to spawn every hour and a certain distance from each other but I have seen them pop up literally next to each other and in areas with crafting benches, is this the same for anyone else or am I just going crazy? They were not like this pre-Ashlands and I can manage them but it's getting annoying having to fight 2-3 almost every single day

[willow badge]

I believe it's the range of the fire buff you can see as a player

[lilac coyote]

It hasn't changed since before Ashlands.

[frail cave]

Weird, maybe I just have more spawn areas in this specific Mistlands area I guess, still doesn't change why they're spawning on top of my workbenches which is odd

[lilac coyote]

They won't. The workbenches will suppress spawns.

[rose stream]

Please, someone can help me?

My map is not loading, saying that is missing meta and corrupted. A tried to restore from the last save but without sucess. I am desperate

[rose stream]

Doesnt work

[gusty needle]

Currently running a vanilla server on laterst. Our players are getting their equipped items back on death for some reason.

DeathKeepEquip is false, and this doesn't

work:

05/27/2024 22:57:33: Console: <color=#8b0000>Error executing command: Invalid input, possible valid values are: Default, None, Less, MuchLess, More, MuchMore, Casual, VeryEasy, Easy, Hard, VeryHard, Hardcore, Most</color>
   <color=#888888>setworldmodifier - [name] [value] Sets a world modifier value</color>```

Tried to set to default and it keeps our equipped items still. Tried to set default and the same happens.

[marble girder]

Do items disappear when burned in lava?

[true steeple]

They despawn in the same way an item outside of lava would

[marble girder]

I was mining but died by falling into lava, now my corpse is gone

What should I do?

[true steeple]

Did the leviathan respawn? That can happen when they are unloaded while sinking
Your grave would be inside it if it’s still there

[midnight galleon]

hi all, can any one point me in the right direction for creating assets for valhiem ? my self and a few freinds play on a server and i would like to make some custom banners for our builds. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[dusk storm]

Can my friend who plays Valheim on steam deck can join into dedicated servers with others who play on PC?

[true steeple]

Yes

[marble girder]

I don't have a grave.

[dusk storm]

Thank you

[fringe sundial]

I am assuming you mean make a mod for the game. If that is the case, here would be your best bet for Q&A: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966

[midnight galleon]

Thank you !!

[true steeple]

So the leviathan isn’t back?

[marble girder]

yes

[true steeple]

You’ll have to load a character backup then, and use devcommands for anything you’ve lost

[marble girder]

What commands do I need to use?

I'm currently at the place where I died.

[true steeple]

Just the spawn command?

[marble girder]

No, retrieve my items.

[fringe sundial]

if you are using commands, god, ghost and fly(in debug mode) might allow you to search the lava w/o dyeing.

[true steeple]

Load a backup from the manage saves menu in the character select screen

[marble girder]

yes

[marble girder]

Thank you, brother, you're one of a kind.

[buoyant depot]

how do I get rid of this stone? I bury it but it keeps popping back up

[serene tangle]

there's forcedelete command or something like that, it seems like a RuneStone, but their ids are usually RuneStone_something

[buoyant depot]

how do I do commands

I just get code jargon

[lilac coyote]

That's usually a mod issue.

[buoyant depot]

can never be simple

I disabled mods and it still doesnt work

why cant I just pickaxe the stone

and now my mods dont work anymore

last time im asking for help here

[subtle ermine]

Need some help. The flametal shield have more block armor but less block force than the carapace shield, can someone explain to me those stats?

[sterile scaffold]

I'm stuck at just bronze stuff rn. How do I lvl up the skill tree? I feel very stuck

[willow badge]

is the former upgraded? are you sure you're comparing shields and not a buckler?

[still solar]

Is there a way to disable the decomposition of wood after being affected by rain?

[hollow mantle]

Wait, do grave markers not appear if you die from lava? Or were you just unlucky and the marker appears below the surface of the lava essentially making it unreachable?

[hollow mantle]

This game is pretty much gear dependent and not skill dependent. You gain more health and stamina by eating food...the higher the tier of food you eat, the more health and stam you'll have. The better armor and weapons you get the more you'll survive against harder and harder enemies. So the best way to advance is to explore the world, gather new resources and build better equipment/workbenches/food. If you find you aren't finding anything new, it may be time to try a new biome and/or take out a boss as some advancement requires killing the bosses to advance.

[hollow mantle]

If you place the wooden build items under a rooftop, they won't be affected by weather.

[willow badge]

that's not what the question is asking
