there are also some fairly well hidden spawners, kinda need to purge those or it never ends
True.
all in all ashlands are a war zone by design
Is there a mod that removes the goblin and seeker spawns at night in certain biomes after beating Yagluth/The Queen?
@fringe sundial Thanks 🙂 I might try sword.
too much of a war zone to the point where its kind of unfun most of the time
eh, its alright
@fringe sundial By the way, sorry for tagging you, but is the axe still not considered a good weapon type?
i died in the lava while a lavaiathan was sinking and now its back up but i think its covered my stuff, can i make it sink again without a blackmetal pickaxe?
@slow orchid I used a bronze pickaxe on one just fine
i see
Good luck!
so how do i hook animals with the harpoon? just left click at them? is it only possible to move untamed boars?
wait, they come back up?
i think its a bug
while mine was sinking, i died before it disappeared, so it reappeared with as is (the ores didnt respawn)
The harpoon is a spear & does damage, so you need to enable friendly fire to be able to harpoon tames.
is there a place where I can see what type of dmg ashland enemies do and how does shield spell work with armor and blocking (shield experiences full dmg even with blocking)
try the wiki. may not be fully up to date for ashlands content yet though.
its almost complete afaik
We're getting there slowly. Not much left to do.
busier than my beehives
No worries about the tag, I'm just another gamer/player, so I don't mind. Some people (me included) like it because it doubles for chopping trees and no other weapon type is that level of utilitarian (intentionally). The atgeir and sledgehammer can be, but they aren't specificly designed to do so.
those two are kinda cc specialists
Due to the utilitarian nature, it isn't as good for DPS when compared to other weapons.
problem is that this utility drains the durability of your primary weapon
True. It's the trade off for a tool that can do 2 different things when others specialize in a single task.
The other side of that is you don't need to swap weapons when something creeps up on you when logging.
yeah but realistically you wont be doing much logging by lategame
Ashlands and mistlands both still have trees.
in ashlands your primary weapon cant really afford to waste durability
Unless the transition from pre-live ashlands changed that, haven't gotten past swamp after ashlands went live.
i didnt call it a war zone for no reason
I am aware it's nuts in ashlands. Played in PTB prior to live.
i generally recommend the following setup:
Sword or Mace + Parry Shield
two handed cc weapon (usually atgeir)
Ranged Weapon (Usually bow)
and tools seperate from that
How can I make my pet follow me?
Only certain pets can do so. Wolves and an Ashlands creature, I believe. You just interact with the wolf to get it to follow you or stay.
thanks
Just be careful if it's a starred wolf, they can still die. I generally find it's safest to breed them where you catch them and take the offspring traveling just to keep from losing all your starred pets.
Thanks
is fader relic still a placeholder item
Ashlands creatures do not follow you, unless they've patched it from when it launched.
Gotcha. I wasn't sure about that, thanks for clearing it up.
I'd expect so. That's how Queen worked until Ashlands release, and I wanna say that's how Yag worked until Mistlands release too
how does join sever work im new to the game
https://streamable.com/9g2kvw, why is fader not moving at all? did he get glitched by my plants
Okay I have to ask. Is it normal to pine copper and silver, and when the ore breaks, you sometimes get nothing?
ill be honest the fight felt too easy...
Yes, sometimes you don't get anything, sometimes you only get stone.
@thorn spire Alright thanks. Just wanted to make sure it wasnt a bug or something.
https://streamable.com/pp4wwo like... did my plants glitch him out?
Can happen yea, think it’s a chance of drop from each piece you break
Can I permanently enable
devcommands
env clear?
If you are looking to join a server:https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510
If you are looking to make one, check YouTube or the wiki
so why at the start screen when you select join game it seems to almost crash the game...
If it stops responding you usually just need to wait
is there really a point in using nidhogg
to pair it with a shield
I cut my sentence off oops
Is there really a point in using nidhogg over mistwalker
+60 slash damage
But surely the frost and spirit make up for that
and then theres upgrades to give it an effect like mistwalker has
theres no frost effect, wat
I have, I know the root and the draining one are both super useless on most weapons
i just didnt know if the lightning made nidhogg better than mistwalker with the slow that mistwalker has
there are secondary effects with a % chance to happen
In Ashlands? Not really no. Unless you want to enchant nidhogg to immobilize enemies or get damage buff when low on hp
i have not tested them out myself yet so i cant say if theyre good i only just unlocked them
oh you dont go thundering?
I'd say lightning is about as strong as Mistwalker, so no reason to do it over mistwalker
Pesronally I don't use nidhogg tho
I'd say lightning is typicallyyyyy the best enchantment tho
Yep using one right now, it has a chain lightning tho, which is very good against a mob of monsters packed together
how do i tell what time it is in game?
is this modded?
can i grow magecaps and puffs in meadows, though i would think not after plains
devcommands
time
will that make my world unlegit if i use those?
it's hard to tell since all the materials I can see look standard. It might be in a non-noticable way. They could have also built it in creative(simply a world modifier setting) instead of survival (because large builds are hard to do when you have a chance of being raided every so often). If it isn't, that is pretty impressive.
there are some who would say so. I am not among them because I like to use the command "removedrops" a lot to keep the area clean.
There are people who play the entire game just with knives.
I use knife from meadows to blackforest, I just swap weapon once Im at Bronze age
I'm not sure that's the glowing endorsement you think it is.
Yes, very viable in many situations
why does protection staff shield break even when i parry? is this a bug?
anyone know why i cant cook fish
i believe you need the cauldron, not the cooking rack.
i mean raw fish
Don’t believe it’s a bug no. Shield will take full damage despite armor, block, parry, resistance, etc.
Also when getting fall damage it will damage both you and the shield
(I think) there is only 1 actual fish recipe other than eating raw fish....trying to find the wiki to check right now.
well now i know the cause of like 5 deaths
Cooked fish, fish rolls, fish and chips (or something like that)
Also good to know that with magic shield you can parry anything. Even a 2 star Gjall with your bare fists
yer thanks was trying to get cooked fish for fish wraps but i wont let me cook it on the cooking station
from wiki:
Crafting:
Cooked fish at a Cooking station or Iron cooking station, will take 25 seconds to cook.
After cooking Raw Fish into Cooked Fish, x2 can be used in Fish wraps at a Level 4 Cauldron alongside x4 Barley Flour.
Use fish in cauldron to get “raw fish” first
iron cook station seems to be whats needed not the couldron like i originally though.
weird...
yer was hoping someone had experienced it feel as tho its a glitch
And you can cook other stuff on the station?
Do you have mods?
Just checking again, you do have raw fish, right?
yes
The lightning gem also gives a stun to some enemies and can chain lightning between them. I used my mistwalker for a long time but now swear by the nidhogg and berzerker axes. The jade gems are good against big stuff like morgens or starred warriors because once they are rooted you can just change to axes and attack from behind without them being able to move.
But most of my weapons use the lightning gems which are freaking awesome
Lightning doesn't give any special stun
Lightning is just extra damage, which aids in staggering enemies. Same as if you just had more damage on the weapon
I must just have been seeing staggers from the chain lightning then
Does this look good for growing Ashvine?
I'm thinking one vine on both sides of each wall. And either planting them centred on the walls, or one at each end. The gap between the walls is 2m. Will increase the height of the walls as needed. The walls are 10m long.
hi guys, my friend can't join any server, can somebody help us?
You may need to provide more info than that - what platform is he on? What servers have you tried? Are the servers up-to-date? Is his game client up-to-date? Is he behind a firewall?
He is on steam, last update, server created by a friend on xbox, but he can only join servers with the "beta test". He changed the version to the last one and still can't join
Is the ||flametal tower shield|| better than the serpent shield?
literally twice as good
But serpent is resistant vs pierce damage
it is
but the serpent shield is ultimately iron tier and simply powercrept to literal hell and back by the time you hit flamemetal
ofc
there’s not much pierce damage in the ashlands
do 3 starred mobs exist?
In the heat of siege I set my pickaxe on the catapult and it threw it into the lava. Does this means My pickaxe is gone forever or is there a way to recover it ?
ive never thrown an item into lava so i dont know if they melt but my guess is, if you cant see it its probably gone
only by cheats I think
ah alright thanks
helloo! by any chance does anyone know why chickens don't lay eggs? I have a lot of space, i had 2 chickens and they still didn't lay eggs 🥺
are they fed?
if there are more than 2 and they keep eating but not laying eggs, its likely you are at max population for your pen size
How can i turn on no build cost using commands? Im hosting a server and cant just change the world modifiers
oh.... i will try reducing chickens or enlarging the pen
based on what wiki says, if you have more than 14 within 12 meters (including eggs), then you are at max population
Im not sure on a server since it acts differently than playing solo but asking here might be a good place start or looking into the wiki for info: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736
ohh I understand... Really thank you very much!!

I don’t think lava destroys items. I know it doesn’t destroy flammetal ore, although that is by design lava resistant
Ashlands questions ||Do overlapping shields share damage or bone usage, or do they each only use bones for the damage the individual hits they each take?||
I would highly assume the second
I second that guess
I originally thought that, but the fact that they merge when the effects touch, I thought maybe they shared damage.
if it did, the ripple effect would hit both
I was trying to decide if it's best to just build a bunch in the same area so when one fails they next would take damage, but if they are merged, they will just all lose at the same pace
like you could put 3 on successfully higher platforms and the highest obviously takes the hits till it's out of bone, then the next etc.
unfortunately, they aren't like batteries hooked up in series, otherwise it would happen like you are suggesting
I guess it's probably worth just testing it, but I'm new to ashlands so I don't want to explore in a test server and see spoilers
if you think of each like a flashlight and the bones as batteries, you can add new batteries but the flashlight w/o batteries wont light even if the other does have batteries. in this case the bubble effect is the light from the flashlight. it can overlap, but only if both have batteries
yeah, like I mentions, thats what I thought it would be till I seen the domes merge and that had me questioning if it used the bones more as a pool of resource instead
I highly doubt it but you did make me wonder as well...might swap to my beta/test world.
this is the test I would do, i just don't want to risk spoilers flying to ash to make it.
then you could see if the top one uses up bones first and what happens when it does, does the next one just take over?
why is there cheese on my wall? how do i add more cheese
so I just did that but horizontal. spaced close enough to overlap but not close enough to confuse which bubble belongs to which generator. once the first failed, it was done. the second and third didn't share bones to keep the first alive.
Cool, thanks for the test results 🙂 So it is probably a good thing to double them up with 1 slightly higher than the other wherever you put them just to make sure if you forget to fill one, you'll notice the red indicator and have time to fill it while the lower one protects
its some fancy work using the decoration "sign" that you can build once you get wood and coal. look it up on youtube, there are a tone of videos.
yep, overlap is a good idea to keep everything protected.
oh ok thanks
in a sign, it's something like <sprite=01> I think there are sprites up to like number 15 or so
👍
Hmm getting really low FPS since the update it would appear. Like 14 or so. Anyone have any potential fixes?
I’ve tried verifying the files, would a re-install help?
I have a local world with Fire Hazards turned off. When I take the world files from that world, and upload them to a hosted server, the Fire Hazards is back on. Is there a way to stop that? I worked with the host's support but they were at a loss, and told me to come here. :/
if i use a gemstone to upgrade a weapon does it do damage based on my elemental skill or that particular weapon skill
do you get really low fps in the ashlands or everywhere?
so you're getting ~14 fps, how much was it before?
What u playing on
Quick question because I have perception (-1) apparently. How the heck do we make the color fireworks? I have the basic firework and a dandelion but nothing comes up in any crafting station.
My rotation is broken possibly due to Gizmo mod, the vanilla rotation is now different to the base game rotation (like 30 degrees off, I cant place anything straight), Ive tried uninstalling the mods, game, starting game in vanilla. All of them did not work... Please help if anyone knows about this
Best to ask in the mod channel. Gizmo has a reset function, it may not be bound to key by default but it's there.
I don't think it's gizmo's problem now, since vanilla also do the same
sth about my base game rotation now is wrong
I saw some old discussion few days ago about this known bug of rotation problem, I wonder if it's fixed?
If you really uninstalled all mods, that sounds very unlikely. To be safe, remove or at least rename the bepinex folder, then no mods should load anymore.
What you linked there is a totally different bug 🤔
not that one, this one #valheim-help message
Ah right, sorry got no experience with that bug.
tried that as well
allg fixed
I want to make a huge wall around the base to prevent mob from attacking but I think they will spawn inside, can I prevent that without damaging too much the terrain ?
campfires and workbenches (among other stuff) prevent mob spawns in a wide area
Maybe put some log or regular wood pillars horizontally across the wall and put the signs on those? Might look stylish too
put a second sign. I think they can layer
Whats a good weapon to fight Fader solo? Thundering Berserkir Axes?
Yea, those would prob be the best choice. Warning though; He sadly can be a bit hard to melee. Ice staff makes him into a cakewalk because magic op as always
heloo how to apply zip file world backup to valheim(zip downloaded from dedi server)
Can someone come and help me nine copper and tin any help appreciated
what is the expected gameplay in the ashlands? The moment I provoke one mob, I am overwhelmed, and even kiting all the way to the base, killing them on the way, and then hiding behind the shield, more mobs are showing up and I am eventually dying.
how much bandwidth does a valheim multiplayer session, that me and my 1 friend play on, consume?
Sounds tedious, prob not many volunteers
Can always up the resource multiplier if you need to though
I guess so ill just do it when i can be bothered lol
Does any one know how to help lag when there is 10 players on a server
It's tough for sure. March forward, place a gate repeat till you find those charred forts. Make the better food, weapons and armor and it'll get easier. The Ashlands are meant to be hell. Try a magic build too. There are some really nasty magic weapons once you progress that help a lot.
What do you mean by gate? A portal?
I pulled my blood magic stuff out of retirement, just to have something to take aggro, but levelling it is hell, and even with two eitr/one hp food, I am struggling to take stuff out fast enough with the ice wand, even kiting back to base. The new tameable is fast and two-shots me. The charred and voutures I have just been kiting and dealing with, but by the time I finish and go back to where I was, there are more.
annoying that earthern wall are no longer indescructable in Firelands. only forts are safe
I thought the staff of fracturing would be much better against spawners than it seems it is
What is this? when trying to connect to a server
nvm, that error went away, got a new one
Hello. I just installed valheim on a new pc. Other games like Quake champions or Destiny works totally fine, but when I downloaded Valheim, it lags alot no matter what I set in the settings, and my old pc didnt have any issues with the game and it went smoothly.
Thankful for answers😌
need bout 2 - 3 people help me recover my stuff in the ashlands
do you know your pc hardware?
Eat magicky food
how i get magicky food
Cook it. If it adds eitr in addition to HP/stamine, that's what you need.
but there no eter foods option in the cauldrom
You need lvl5 cauldron (have to build mortar and pestle).
thank you
Should a newb play Vanilla or add basic QoL mods for for a mostly Vanilla experience?
I am repeatedly facing the "failed to connect" error while connecting to my friend's world
If you add any mods without knowing what vanilla is like, you will expect those mods every time. I would recommend playing vanilla first, but mods definitely increase total playability (as do the built in cheats called devcommands).
I was just thinking of very minor QoL stuff for like inventory management, etc. But Ill go Vanilla first thanks
i need help
I play vanilla almost exclusively. The one mod you’ll want is time of day. Valheim vanilla does not track time on the UI. Night time matters
why i cant play on normal version with my public save version ? no way to fix it ?
You can actually build an in-game functional sun dial which tracks time too, but not as convenient as a digital timer in my UI
I killed him with the thundering axes but was a tough fight until I figured out the stategy for each of his rotations though. Some of my best damage was when I climbed on top of a morgen hole and then jumped on his back so half of his attacks couldnt hit me
I only recently got into the game and as far as I know we’re playing vanilla. I cannot think of anything I would, now, want a mod for. Not even day/night tracking (if you need to know, check the sky).
mass planting and gathering
Can I rename my viking?
a farming mod would be ideal too, auto plants in a perfect grid without worrying about your stamina. also harvests immediately and completely. saves a ton of time.
I could do everything manually but why? I don't wash my clothes by hand
Hello guys.
I’m having a meltdown. When opening the game I just have a black screen but I can see the in-game cursor and I also can move it. I reinstalled it 2 times, even on different storages. Also updated the gpu drivers. On task manager the games seems running ok, using gpu, memory ecc. I’m running the game on pc via Xbox gamepass. Please help me, I’ve been playing the game for 3 months and I don’t want all my hard work and grinding wiped out 🥲
if it was the last updadate, try wiating on the blackscreen for several minutes (5-10) and see if it loads. It is likely loading in the ashalnds in the background and (since it doesn't have a loading bar) you aren't seeing it.
if you tab out/minimize, it may pause the update effectively.
Can a level 1 carapace shield parry a 2 star seeker? or will it parry/knock me back and im still boned?
It can parry but dont screw up..
Hi, I need to find fairy light to continue in the game. Can anyone help?
Kill plains boss
yes i found it now thank you
I'm out sailing and seeing this on the horizon, is it a Fuling village? (haven't explored the Plains biome yet)
Yes, it is
Thanks!
for some reason i cant start a world. just stays on the loading screen till it says not responding fresh install
Give it a few minutes, don't touch the mouse or tab out.
What is best strategy to beating wolves.... bloody things one shot stun me all the time in full iron armor and climb hills like billy goats
night wolves you just wana avoid in general. day spawned wolves, you want at least 2 health foods if not 3 and your highest armor rating on equipment and a sheild on normal diffuculty.
build a base on mountain and hide
I've died to the wolf "event" wolves hunting you, plenty, in the mountains
the (drinking) horn is the same as the stein/pint I believe, its mostly cosmetic but can allow you to drink your mead.
you dont need it, but it's a fun peice for when on a server and you toast/"raise a glass" to beating a boss with friends.
so the stats don't add on if i have it on main weapon do the toweer shield for example?
when blocking?
the horn of valere summons all old heroes back to life to defend the wielder... oh wait, wrong horn...
if you are refering to this horn, its just for drinking: https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Horn_of_Celebration
so what does the block and parry stats be there?
nice one
I think, based on how low those stats are, they can still work but it shouldn't be considered a weapon or armor. The way the game is made might require those stats to be filled in even if it isn't an item designed for combat truly.
damn i wanted to be a tower shield tank with a horn in main weapon
imagine if i could blow it to buff next atack for friends
if you could, it wouldn't have the name "drinking horn", but yes that would be a cool war tool.
skol!
Different cosmology 😆
indeed, differenet Universe!
I made a world Pre-Ashlands. I haven't explored anything post-swamp. Will I have Ashlands content or am I screwed?
Need about 2 people help me recover mt stuff in the ashlands the BRS havent replied in 15 hours
You should be fine.
Is there a method to finding a good big piece of flat land other than "explore and pray"?
Use the world viewer and look for areas that are not near mountains at all, won’t be perfect but it can rule out some spots and you can find some potential candidates with that
Is there any difference between Wolf Fur Cape and Lox cape, since they both give resistance to frost and give the same armor (4 at max upgrade level)
for my first ride to the ashlands, what should i take with me?
can i reuse sap extractors?
no
find a relatively flat-ish area and level it
Hmm why are there two items with the same functionality, since lox is higher biome enemy and thus lox cape is higher tier item
looks 😎
i do agree it seems suspicious, but i've really found no other benifit
same, worst case: make new world and take all loot to new world
though i doubt that would happen
tip for farming volture meat?
Kill Voltures, they respawn along the coast
One looks like an old carpet, and the other looks kinda cool 😎
Is there a brief step by step guide to disabling one or two raids individually (trolls and bats)?
devcommands:
||removekey defeated_gdking|| to disable troll raids
||removekey defeated_bonemass|| to disable bats raid (and wolves as well)
Or ||removekey killedbat|| to only remove bats raid. But this method will just re-enable them every time a bat dies (which shouldn't happen unless you enter a frost cave)
is there a reason why when im hosting the world and im in AUS, when I invite my friend from canada, the game than starts lagging for both of us
theres like a small delay for even me when im the server host, does valheim auto route to like the middle servers or something? Or can i manually choose where the servers will be?
Bad connection
but how does that affect me? seeing im hosting the server
Maybe your the bad connection idk
afaik, hosting is handled that whichever player enters an area first is the host
two players far away from each other are essentially playing singleplayer
ahhh interesting
you can see noticeable lag when the host player dies for example, as the host gets transferred to someone else
im also guessing if i were to run a dedicated server, the connection would b better
well no, because it works the same
i see
what does genloc do again?
Thanks a bunch. If I put defeated_gdking (stands for greydwarf king, right) I also disable any chance of "Foul smell from the swamp" / Draugr raid, no?
(That's a price I am willing to pay)
It will for the draugr raid, but not the blobs one as that's enabled with the bonemass defeated key and never disabled (but it would when removing said key)
Bonemass key will disable surtling raids too
Considering bats are only found in frost caves, killedbat key might be a better choice to disable the bat raid as the condition to kill bats can be very easy to avoid
But this is assuming you want to specifically remove bats raid but not surtling and blobs raid
Hey is there a command in the console I can use which lowers how much skill a player loses upon death?
There's even a world modifier without even touching commands
i know about that but I mean a command specifically, I dont want to lower the actual difficulty
||SkillReductionRate||
someone plz help me get my stuff
can i spawn creature to a location or coordonates?
No
Yes. They keep producing continuously, and can be dismantled and rebuilt
Can someone help. Play with my friend on a server.
And some game elements (like chest open, itemsdrops...) are delayed.
It feels like the game is laggy.
i cant seem to pickup items even tho its enabled how do i fix this
if you dropped them before, they don't auto pickup. otherwise, check your inventory to see if you have a space for it.
i didnt, my inventory is also not full
hard to say then, I think auto pickup is limited to just under what you can manually pick up (for range). only other thing that comes to mind is if you are playing with mods or on a server, things can get weird.
how much do stars change stats on mobs? how much stronger do they become
+50% damage and +100% hp per star
how can i find Ocean Serpents more often? i need Serpent trophy to unlock new bait for fishing, or how do i increase spawnrate without cheats is there a way or some tricks?
i have seen him a lot after dark
Thank you. I was so excited to get in that o forgot to respond and say thanks. Oops.
Hi guys, do boars breed just by themself, or i need to separate them?
if they are tamed, have enough room and fed (not hungry) they will breed. I think you might need to also be within render range (if you can't* see them they might stop breeding).
serpents only spawn in wide ocean biomes at night or during storms, stormy nights have double spawn rate
Thank you!! so i don't need to create separate rooms for each 2 of em
some people do in order to create a endless spawn/breeding(its usually a tower) but it isn't strictly needed.
i saw that, but i am just at day 100 , but spent days just finding what to do 🙂 i am very new in game
it's a fun but challenging game, especially once out of the meddows and black forest.
i've just passed the elder, so.. i think the fun starts now 🙂
ya, swamp is the first major uptick in difficulty.
the game uses a "host" to "client" system, where a person in a (100m i think?) radius either becomes the host or becomes a client, and all of the people in that radius communicate constantly with RPCs and with the server's world file, so that's why you get lag in that case -- their lag affects you and vice versa when you're near them in game. And when players go in and out of an area with other players, that host/client system reorganizes itself, usually with the first player in the area becoming the "network host"
hey ppl, i habe a question about the parry system, when holding like, a shield with 16 block and x2,5 for parry bonus, if you equip a axe with 12 block and x2 for parry bonus, do this adds up for a 28 block and x4,5 parry bonus or it just keeps the shield stats?
No, it only takes into account the equipped shield
An equipped shield overrides whatever you have as a weapon's block stats
How do I fix random fps drops? I can run game with recommended specs, on lowest graphics, tried both vulkan n normal
PLS HELP WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT FADER. HE JUST RUNS AWAY AS WE TRY TO FIGHT HIM AND THOUSANDS OF ENEMIES STARTED TO DEFEND HIM
(also there are lots of lava around him rn)
hey hey pls i need some plan how to fix this
Does anyone have any tips to farming vulture eggs? The nests are few and far between and the vultures only seem to drop them 50% of the time
there's no other way than just walking around the shores and killing them
I figured. But i'm not the only one who feels like drops are like 50/50, right?
Never had him try to run away. Sounds unfortunate tho
shit, so he really just chased dvergr till he got in between two lava lakes






mine grausten on the coast, vultures will come
can 2, 1 stared boar breed a 2 star boar?
no
so i need 1, 2 star
at least one 2 star
and then i can breed it with a 1 star
and a none star
oh okay thanks
I believe it models genetics - if you have a 1* and a 2* then any offspring have a 50:50 chance of being either 1* or 2*.
How accurate is that information
100%
how long do I have to wait for my poison resistence to ferment?(sorry for bad english)
can someone help me?
2-3 in-game days I think
best food setup for ashlands mage?
I can't connect in any server. I tried the "yesimadebackups" beta server, and now after changing the version to the oldest one i can't click the button connect, can someone help me with that?
same with me now hahahaha
i've tried everything, firewall, reinstalling, cleaning all the folders, installing on xbox, but nothing fix that
i can't click on button connect, simple as this
on the beta version i'm able to click the button and connecting on any server
but when i tried to rolled back the version, the button don't do anything
its 2 days and thx
yeap, i usally play on steam, but after that i've tried to play on xbox (PC) too, but the same error occured
yea, xbox game pass
I know, the error is kinda simple i think, i can't click the connect button, just that. The same version i was playing before trying the beta version
difference between 'start server' and 'community server' ??
I believe "start server" is required for anyone else to join you on steam and "community server" makes your world visible for others to join in the server list.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong
Hello a few days ago i asked how to open -console for macos app store native and someone found out how with the terminal access, how do i find the code again here can someone help? I think he pinned it but i dont know how to find it. thank you in advance
Is the Trollstav supposed to immediately kill me when it finishes the animation?
Only if you decide to stand under a big meteor
I didn't really decide anything.
Well, that was unimpressive. Killed me instantly, not sure it even took out a single charred.
Hmm, only if you don’t decide to get out of the way of the meteor
Do I get to aim it? I was assuming this was like the skeleton staff, which cannot be aimed.
thx
best weapon during and after the plains?
Haven’t used it that much but it should go in the general direction you’re aiming, and then once the meteor lands it does damage to everything in the area and spawns a hostile troll
Atgeir because it’s OP. But other than that just use what you like, not too many important resistances to worry about in plains or mistlands
brilliant and is the padded armour worth getting?
Unless you are super mobility focused, yes.
HAHA I did this once by accident 🙂
It's a meteor
cast it and run away.
I use trollstav on dvergr in mistlands, now I have 20+ sap extractors 🙂
The trolls are enemies fyi so they will fight everything
They are great for levelling elemental magic
Hey yall ! First time messaging in here ! I had some questions about heading to the ashlands for the first time , I'm back at the grind currently growing barley for fire resistance mead , as well as I'm trying to find what the best way to tackle the new hellscape is haha I'm itching for these new weapons and gear ! Any and all help will be appreciated!!
not sure what help or tips you want without spoilers so I would just go and explore 🙂
mistwalker is king
frost arrows too
That's fair haha is carpacre armors okay ? And bet thank you I'll be making a bunch of them ! Haha
yea. Although the Root Chestpiece from the swamp is also super good in plains and mistlands, because of pierce resist
take your best armor, weapons and food and be careful where you put portals, they might burn
If I make them inside I stone building will it still burn or is it protected in stone structures ? Also saw something somewhere about a gas mask?
By the time you have the trollstav, this should long be a solved problem, as Mistlands is a cakewalk compared to Ashlands
I like sap though and now I need even more because of the new recipes
I find ashlands to be easier than mistland imo
I can't even imagine how. In Mistlands, you can escape enemies, lots of enemies do not climb, there are moments of quiet to rebuff. Ashlands is just constant mobbing.
It's all down to visibility..
I got through the Ashlands content quite quickly and now I have lots of forts setup as bases.
only get mobbed at night time and in new areas
now I just collect resources for food, hunt and play with Ashvin...pretty boring
I have more fun in mistlands now tbh and it still feels more dangerous to me
How do you avoid mobbing? In the mistlands, I can clear the area around my base, and it sticks, but there are constantly new enemies spawning outside. I have two trolls constandtly fighting them, and I destoryed the spawner already.
If I go out during the day in Ashlands I only come across a few enemies they spawn regularly. Its pretty chill.
if I venture too far from my base then sometimes I will get mobbed but honestly, they are easier to out run
You know you can jump through the lava as long as keep jumping 😄
or ride an Ashvin
I don't explore any new areas in Ashland anymore. I've done like 20 forts so, I'm pretty much done with that biome
This does not correspond to my experience of the Ashlands at all. Even with full running/stamina gear, I am not fast enough to lose a lot of the enemies, and just end up with a horde following me.
is trying to parry a boar stupid or?
That's happened to me a few times but I've dealt with them, pretty intense, doesn't happen regularly unless I explore new areas or take over a fort or go exploring at night
no, good practice
why does this happen when i use the healing mead
the healing potion has a cooldown so you can't spam it 🙂
how long?
dunno 2-3min I can't remember
got it but it happened the first time i used it ever
Because being able to spam healing with meads would make combat extremely irrelevant
all my attempts failed lol. Cant get the timing right on them. The greylings are easy
also is it better to build by rivers or the ocean?
note that i just started this save after about 3 hours of not playing
takes practice on all enemies. Wolves where the hardest for me
Wolves have such a low max health you can often kill them with one secondary so you don’t need to parry them
not with a bronze sword you can't
Why are you fighting wolves with a bronze sword?
why not
Does it at least stagger them?
i two shotted it after a parry with the bronze buckler
or one im not really sure
parrying is fun on all enemies
with a bronze dagger
agreed
that satisfying DONG
yes
Pushing a wolf off a steep cliff with a tower shield is equally fun
must say, I've never ever used a tower shield
i did once and i regretted it
I’ve tried all types of shields. I change my main when I get bored of the current one
makes me slow as hell
@silver monolith nothing
They’re all good but you have to play very differently to make the most of their strengths
I'm using berserker axes now and parrying everything but sometimes it can be a mistake 🙂
Tried parrying a 2* seeker and not only did I get staggered but lost 90% hp
seeker?
lucky it knocked me back and with feather cape I survive and ran away fast lol
mistland seekers
havent been there yet
There are also giant mosquitoes later in the game
thats comforting
after you defeat the mistland boss, you will get mobs of fulings and seekers in every biome below at night time. Its GREAT 🙂
i havent defeated bonemass yet so dont spoil too much ;)
help what am i supposed to do
ok np
I went back and fought bonemass with some new weapons, kill him in under 10 sec 🙂
shaboom it in the face
Roll, walk, sprint or jump to avoid the attacks
huh
damn
the moment i unpause it releases its arrow
kill it with simpler words :D
bet
its a good way to level up skills, just keep killing certain bosses
So jump or roll immediately. The arrows don’t move that fast
If you die you can just try again
yeah
Eventually the raid will end and the enemies will despawn
how long ago did you get the game
2-3yrs ago
i got it may 18th this year
my first play through I got stuck at bronze age, didn't know how to progress
lots a new players struggle in the early biomes I think
3 draugers what am i supposed to do 1 is inside and 2 are outside i am cooked
kaboom pow pow then they dead
Walking back avoids 90% of attacks in this game
accept your fate OR run and hide
you have no skill drain, so dying again isn't going to make a difference
i shall not abondon my post
you shall fight for you land like a true warrior
hell yeah i win thats what i do
:)
I learnt the same lesson, to build a moat to stop raids because after bonemass they get REAL scary
ok i shat myself when i saw an arrow
ik if i run forward a bit i can find a 2 star troll or a normal one so hopefully they fight each other
After bonemass they drop REAL rewards, unless it’s the skeleton raid. Fighting is almost always better than ignoring them behind a wall
ofc, I always fight them, but they ain't invited IN to my base mate 🙂
THE SMELL IS GONE WE ATTACK NOW
They travel all the distance and you don’t even show them around 
moat?
I make them a hole and they gather, then I arm my turrets and set the dogs on them
smart
yea, a moat...a big old HOLE in the ground around your base
I keep wolves in a pit to kick greylings into
i am back in my home after dribbling through them
the elder isnt being friendly towards me
Friendly reminder to never treat your Elders with respect
use fire, I heard wood creatures burn
armed and dangerous
about that...
an i killed 2 draugers now whos next
The indestructible pillars around his spawn location are great for hiding from his projectile attack
Do you have any melee weapons?
bronze dagger
That’ll work well
alr but here is my hotbar incase
Dont parry him, rolling uses less stamina and bosses can’t be staggered
What food and armor were you using?
full bronze and boar meat, wolf meat, golden mushroom
and poison resistance for some reason
You should be using food made at a cauldron, it’s better than the boar meat and mushroom and possibly the wolf meat
havent unlocked anything except meads
If you aren’t farming carrots already, do that before going into the next biome
how
Make a cultivator with bronze and core wood
You get core wood by chopping pine trees
Hello There
i got out of there alive
how can i kill this creature i feel like i need to kill it
You can't. But you can mine the barnacles on top.
but i really want to
reminds me of the reefback from subnautica
Break enough barnacles and it will sink. It never comes back up, so maybe it dies?
hopefully
Enable devcommands (cheats) and you can use ForceDelete to kill it
If a friend buy the game in xbox pc and I buy the game on steam, we can play together?
I got copper but all I can do is make a knife?
how am I supposed to kill the elder with a knife only?
You're not?
also trolls still terrorize me
There's something else in black forest to find.
You need to build a forge to make bronze.
huh?
have you burned any meat by accident yet?
oh I have coal that's how I made the kniofe
check out the rivers & beaches in black forest.
will do
also I found this branch where the dwarfs are spawning ?
should I burn it?
you can destroy it.
or you can let it keep spawning until you have enough resin stone wood and greydwarf eyes.
cool, do u have any tips for feathers
Go to coast of black forest
feathers are easy if you have a crude bow and wood arrows.
alright guys thanks for the help
i keep dying but at least I have a cozy comode
What happens if you were to get a raid but the entire raid area was spawn blocked?
Potentially you'll get no spawns at all.
Sounds good. Ive had like 4 greydwarf raids in an in-game week and im slowly losing marbles with those things
4? That's unfortunately. I think that's pretty much the most you could have had.
46min x 4= 184min
30min x 7= 210min
Yup. Pretty much chance to spawn, spawn raid.
Oh right thats a thing
Thats 4 20% chances in a row
As I say, it doesn't get worse than that.
can confirm
works like a charm in ashlands
honestly i think the spawn proofing is too strong
campfires should either be targeted or not spawn proof
Yea spawnproofing and terrain walls/moat trivialize base defense, but at least you can always choose not to use them
How do you deal with how unbalanced the game is?
Some biomes/progression is a cake walk while others are deadly.
Are you sure you’re going in the right order?
Yea game doesn't hold your hand, lets you take on challenges that are much bigger than you're ready for. If you want we can tell you the intended order tho
Yes.
Are you upgrading your gear to higher levels?
Just progression wise. Like meadows to black forest is balanced. Its not easy but the creatures won't one tap you. Then you go to the swamp with your new bronze gear and all of a sudden everything is killing you. Then the mountains where you take one wronf step and 5 wolves jump you. Feulings will pack a punch even with silver armor. The mistlands and blackforest are the only 2 biomes that really seem balanced. Not too easy but also not dying at every turn.
Yes, currently we are a team of 3 a mage, a "rouge" and a "paladin" highest level of carapace. Eiter weave robes. And tier 2 ask armor.
You can lower the difficulty if you're struggling with some biomes
We just hit up a lavaithan then died in the lava. We spent about 5 trips trying to use basalt bonbs to get our stuff back but every single time a spit of fire would knock us off and kill us. Had to cheat just to get our items back.
Its not just that the progression is unbalanced. As I said some biomes you can just run away from creatures and survive while in others you get one hit by every one.
And thats with following progress and getting highest teir armor at every stage.
Games hard lol idk
Its not hard just unbalanced
It’s not that bad lol I think you’re overreacting
I think that may just be an issue for your friendgroup though. Different people find different biomes hard. For example I find plains and mountains to be pretty easy, and Ashlands not too bad. But I do agree swamp can be terrible
I've also seen people who find blackforest hard at first but then are fine with mountain, etc.
Is the game coming to PS anytime soon?
I wouldn't have thought so.
hey I still have troll gear and was wondering how to make bronze
I have a few QoL questions and was wondering if they exist in vanilla, maybe gated behind progression:
-
Is there a way to automate stuff, like wood -> coal -> smelters -> bronze?
Or part of that at least? -
Is there a way to craft/construct/upgrade from close containers, or part of that?
-
Enforce map sharing with other players, either player position and pinned markers?
I checked rivers and beaches but only see flint
Need tin and copper to make bronze
Need a smelter, that needs those red glowy cubes to make.
I have those but can't seem to find tin
I found copper easy but not tin, is there a place where it spawns
as i said I only have a copper knife
are the devs of the game actually in here
i do have a question about getting off a private server
my question about tin still stands
Tin is mined along the shores and streams of the black forest...with a pickaxe
thank you I'll check again
hello, just wanted to ask: if I hang out with Hildir or Haldor in their safe zone while I have animals being tamed nearby, does being in the safe zone affect the progress?
hi i saw this vid https://youtu.be/7wp4oIxo-E4?t=130, does this bridge gap really works or it just a bug?
and im trying to build defenses for my base, so if you guys have any tips on that, pls let me know ty
I just hoe up walls around the base
How do I stop my game from having fps drops? I’ve got it on lowest settings, done vulkan and normal, gone into confit and typed the gfx. But still get the random drops??
Do you need to do anything special to breed asksvin? Got 2 in a pit with all three ashlands foods around them, they don't seem to care and just want to climb out of the pit.
No. Mods are available for all of it. The only thing that kind of exists is that you can skip wood -> coal ||with a surtling farm in the swamp||
Get out of aggro range and not let anything come into aggro range.
Pretty quick if nothing they can attack is in their aggro range, if you stay close they will stay agitated.
I can find any community servers on Xbox is this normal?
There are no community servers as far as I know, you can see in #1024264966712340510 to join a server or make one yourself and post about it there.
Tin is found on the shore of Black Forest biomes
It can be found anywhere with water, not just the shore.
Yeah either next to the sea or rivers
not sure where to post this but i just have a quick question, how many players can be in a non dedicated server?
Also the copper you found is only the tip of the iceberg, 2/3th of the copper node is hidden underground.
Tin are small shiny rock like things found near water in the black forest, 2 -3 wacks with the pickaxe should yield 2-4 tin.
Max players without mods is always 10, with or without a dedicated server
10 max without mods.
oh ok thanks guys
I would add that 10 is really stretching it, a group of 4-6 people is easier to all get geared and not running into shortages or stressing the server too much.
More is certainly doable but it will get harder to feed and get everyone weapons, tools and armor.
oh i see, what about a dedicated server whats the max amount of players for it?
I've already mentioned that a dedicated server is 10 without mods
10 without mods.
oh so its the same with non dedicated
Yeah, 10 is max and if you want to go over you'll need to use mods.
how much players does the mod allow?
Don't know but I've heard about a server that can handle around a hundred if not more.
Hi so I am physically disabled and therefore I cannot use a physical keyboard. I made custom on screen buttons with altcontroller (see ss) but the problem is that the game locks the cursor straight to the center so I can't hover over the buttons and therefore cannot play
Is there any way to move the cursor freely while moving the camera so I can hover over my buttons at the same?
idk how to help tbh but check the settings to see if there is anything @dusty forum
just built an eirn refinery, any tips on how to get soft tissue?
Find giant skulls
can i walk inside these dvergr camps without angering them? as long as i dont damage anything?
Just let seeker kill them and not worry about them mad at u
well i already killed one tower, i want to keep the others for now since theres gjall and seeker soldiers roaming around
and dvergrs come in handy to keep me safe while i explore
They still going to die but u do u
Yup. They'll only agro if you hit them or hit any structure within range of the ward (I think even mining rocks or something inside the ward angers them)
theres 4 camps in very close proximity to one another
ok thats good, ill be careful
4 bruh that not good
seeker soldier barely took any damage from my porcupine
Accidentally hit them with arrow and there will be a wanted poster
its not that close, like 2 crafting table diameters apart
What I like to do with them is let them kill gjall or solider
But sometime we might make an oppsi and we will so . u might need to kill them
whats petrified bone in the middle of dvergr camp
Oh it like a mining site
You will get black marble from it and if it is a skull you can also get soft tissue from it.
u were right, i was just standing by one and a gjall appeared and obliterated nearly all of them
tips on seeker soldiers?
Have a friend that plays tank. 😛 That's how I dealt with them. 🤣
alr, guess ill wait for him to get online
They don't like it from behind.
||aka thier bulbous behind is their weakspot||
They are slow to turn so get close, circle strafe them and hack away.
Pepper them with arrows or throw fireballs their way if you have the staff of embers are also viable options.
Once you get ||staff of protection, you can cast a shield,|| parry the soldier with your crossbow, then jump over it and shoot it in the butt. Super fun
no luck
does it refund input materials when you deconstruct a smelter or similar structures
yes
Most things get refunded yes but some things won't.
I've always found it better to let the smelter run out before deconstructing since it has glitched on me before.
I think that the coal and ore pop back out; I'm pretty sure it's just wood used as fuel that doesn't come back out when you destroy something (i.e. fireplace, oven, etc.)
However I'm not certain enough to say go ahead. I'd agree with Judge.
||what about sap and soft tissue||
I'd wait.
They should but still better to let it run its course because deconstructing with items being processed can glitch the items being processed.
yes, i got my first batch of mistlands ore and i dont want to let it go to waste
keep looking for burial chambers, you'll soon be swimming in surtling cores.
I think all fuel items were fixed and return as drop when structure is destroyed, but not 100% sure
sry ig you have to look on google
would you say i prioritize a feather cape first or a shield/weapon
how do you do this?
|
this letter, two of these on the left, two on the right
or you can just select a message and click the eye
alr
Feather cape!
Sprint somewhere high and jump off, most mobs can't follow, jumping over mobs also becomes a thing then.
Dodging gjall fireballs becomes a breeze and can even shoot an arrow back while in the air.
Besides all that, no more deaths to falling.
the feather cape also makes you way more likely to die if you fail to dodge the fireballs from gjalls...
can i just unequip it when i go into battle against a gjall
True but dodging them becomes so much easier, no need to care where you are jumping, just get away and float to safety if needed.
and can a fire resistance potion counter the debuff
You could but I tend to fight gjalls from high peaks, so I can't be attacked by most other mobs and you can easily jump to other peaks to avoid the fireball, gjalls shouldn't get so close that you can't dodge the fireball.
You hear gjalls way before you see them, so the moment you hear a gjall try and get high.
It can.
yes, i hear them before i see them, and i usually engage first with a sneak crossbow attack which takes away half their hp
Fire resistance is very handy against Gjalls
im confident against gjalls, the issue is running into multiple seekers, seeker soldier, starred seekers, or water
They're inexpensive to make and do a lot of heavy lifting
Against mobs that swarm you, it's handy to have an atgeir or a 2-handed hammer
The powerful knockback will be very helpful
ill build the lightning ategir once i find another skull
for now im running the feather cape, root chest, padded leggings and padded helm
i switch to padded chest when i see a gjall
I find the fenris set to really help in the mistlands, you are fast so can outmaneuver most mobs and the inate fire resistance counters the feather cape's vulnerability to fire.
Why are you still running the root chest ? Mobs in Mistlands don't do pierce damage
seekers do
root chest saved me against 1 star seekers in the mines
Seekers indeed do, the mob you find the most.
Oh I didn't know, my bad
and ticks as well
The root torso has a fire weakness so stacking it with feather cape makes you super weak to gjalls and dvergr mages
It's fine if you swap in time but gotta have good reactions
2 out of the 3 possible attacks a seeker can do is pierce damage.
yeah I tend to go for the fenris set for the fire resistance countering the fire vulnerability of the feather cape, plus you zoom around mobs and if you use knives and bows, maneuverability is key.
You can't upgrade boats, just build better ones. One requires bronze, one requires iron, another is past mistlands
the bronze one
No such thing as upgrading boats.
how do i get the bronze one then
Make bronze nails
how many
80
Recipes unlock when you carry any amount of the materials.
Yeah, but you gotta have discovered every required item present in the build cost
For the karve you need to have held, finewood, resin, deer pelt and bronze nails.
Once you have held those things once, the recipe will unlock and you can see the amounts needed.
i unlocked it but ty
bronze or troll armor for the swamp
Whichever suits your playstyle.
troll full set lvl 1 gave u 19 armor, lvl 4 gave u 40 armor
bronze full set lvl 1 gave u 24 armor, lvl 4 gave u 42 armor
troll gave u sneak
Bronze takes longer to acquire and troll is faster
i have both
Practically useless though
You can basically just use leather if you really want
went with bronze
if u got root make the head first
Unless your old and slow like me, then it's maximum armour and health to have a chance at fights 😅
I have not found 1 Vegvisir for Fader after looking in 10 fortress towers. Is this a bug? Also 1 fortress had no loot at all. Anyone having the same issues?
never had that before
I am using fire can the Vegvisir be destroyed?
The top of the towers in fort?
the ruin structure. that what wiki said
Roughly how long is day time in real life minutes? Found my self miles from portal at times when night starts
21 minutes long
So climb every ruin. Ugh
looking at the stats of the bronze axe and sword -- it looks like the axe is the better weapon?
it does more slash damage
which
sorry , axe
well that need to be if u want boss fight
after 10 forts I still need lots of gems but yes want the fight
Is that from when it says Day XXX ?
full day 30 min
Have not found boss? is it obvious when I find it?
day 21 min and night 9 min , sorry for not fully answer it
there can be a chance u find the boss area without it
1/3 explored I think. Nothing
oh wait wiki didn't say the morgen cave. but my run we found it in there
We found the mysterious Location there.
idk why it show me the boss location with it
I will go into all of them now.
good luck
any tips on finding the black foresttrader
Keep searching
that a good tip my dear good sir
There is a minimum distance from the world center before he can be found, so make sure you're not wasting time exploring black forests that are too close
You can save time by exploring only the shore, the trader icon will appear if you're within a generous distance, meaning you don't need to go very deep inside for it to show up
not too close to spawn, not too far away, sort of in the middle band but maybe someone can describe it better, go to all the black forests there
Trader can kinda vary, at the end of the day there is a random component, sometimes you can get him super fast and sometimes you need to persevere
That being said early trader is very convenient for the belt and fishing rod, because fish is an incredible food source for a long while
i got him when i go looking for elder
god damn im so lucky
don't worry man u will find him soon
800m from centre to pretty much the edge.
is there any way to see the exact distances between locations> i keep seeing numbers thrown around but dont know what to do with them
Centre to the edge of the map is 10.5km.
not that far
Hm?
i just want to show him how far my trader is from the center
Ok. That doesn't really tell him where his are though.
well u said the km i just want to gave a map preview
I...what?
this
I know what I said. I just don't see how your screenshot relates to it.
maybe a show off how close i got him to my base
Just showing off? Lovely.
hehe
What is the longest distance that can be spanned without support?
Just looked at valheim wiki and didnt see these upgrades for Black Forge, why is that?
and it also seems me and my friend have the mats for these two upgrades but cant seem to unlock it in a more vanilla world
is valheim refusing to load for anyone else?
what do these do
nope maybe try verifying the files
Potions arrows green torches.. etc
you get guck from it
do i shoot them with arrows?
pickaxe
You mine them atleast that's the fastest way for me
alr
That’s modded
Hold up, but my Niddhog is only at level 2 and need higher level black forge to further enhance on our other world
Malwarebytes started detecting valheim as trojan, is it false positive? Anybody experienced same problem?
Is it enchanted with a gem or not?
Max blackforge level is 5. 2 upgrades in mistlands 2 in Ashlands. Can upgrade Ashlands weapons to level 3. If enchanted, can only upgrade weapon to level 2
ahh okay, yeah I got the lightning niddhog
hey guys just wondering i have a rtx 4070 build, seem to run every game fine but valheim just seems to run poorly, in base im below 60 fps lol?
@misty fiber hey! did you found any solution for this? I faced the same issue
we just turned off crossplay and for some reason, it worked
whats the max weight i should put in the storage of my karve
wiki doesnt list a max but j wanted to make sure
Isn’t one. Weight in storage doesn’t affect ships, just carts
great thank you
Best way I've found is to use an axe
From what I understand, Valheim is more CPU dependent than GPU. But, yeah, I get below 60fps in our main base at times (i9-14900, RTX 4070).
so should i switch for valheim and use cpu
I doubt that will improve matters.
can i copy one wolrd progress to another for exploring the world without distrupting other wolrd server progress ?
are my 2 pigs ok? they are not moving away form that corner
best advice on how to kill a 2 star Morgen??
Bubble, parry dundr
You should be able to parry its jump attack, or you could slowly damage while dodging
so basicly fighting it under the condition i can't make a mistake (when the bonemass ran out it hit me for 180)
or wait for bonemass to be ready again
No mistakes, no blocking and no parrying (Except for the jump attack, that does very low damage even with stars)
wow 3* boars...awesome
Never come across one 😦
Played a ton of Ashlands. Taken over 20 forts, upgraded all weapons
Never found a 2* Morgen 😦
does anyone by any chance know if valheim is going to be on sale forthe steam summer sale?
most games are so i think so but not 100% on it
mk thx\
so when I’m farming, it isn’t ready until it pops out of the ground?
How does the Trollstav upgrade per level? Are there exact stats yet?
I believe one troll per level.
whats this thing
Not a snowman, but still a abomination. It is almost a mini-boss with how much health it has.
oh my
They have drops used in creating a unique set of armor.
i escaped
There are ways to beat them with ease (cheesing).
how
They aren’t as dangerous as they look. Let them start an attack and sprint back so you can see their animations, then approach and fight similarly to a troll once you’ve seen how they behave.
If you don’t have a tower shield they’re fairly easy to parry. If you do have a tower shield, you can easily get behind them while they do their slow attack animations.
i couldnt parry it
you can dodge roll it
Because of the timings or it staggered you?
my current situation
Their attack doesn't hit ||the top 2 sections of the sunken crypt. If you can get on top, you can hit them when they get close but their attacks miss you.||
timing ig
don't cheese it, learn it
The draugr is faster than the skeletons so you can step back a bit to separate them
iirc with a bronze buckler and low blocking skill, you still can't parry the stomp, but i've been on hard so i might be misremembering
ouch
if you can get an iron buckler lvl 2 or above, you should be able to parry everything they have
stomp, left and right swing
Eikthyr and run if you have to, we all did as new players
yea lol
also how is this person legitimately pausing while in combat and uploading cropped screenshots to us of the current situation
you're either actually very skilled in the game, or i don't know what
wondering the same thing
Windows+shift+S creates cropped screenshots
oo
im not lol
so do I have to stay near my boars the entire time waiting for them to bang
yes, but "near" is not as near as most people think, i believe the range is around 60 meters or so
which is a nice distance from a house or so
so the distance to that house on the far right is okay
you also need to feed them in order for them to bang
yeah the fatties have been guzzling up my rasberries
Hi,
I've just downloaded the game.
I don't see any servers. Is that normal?
Yes. Servers are all private, there is no official valheim server to join publicly. #1024264966712340510 in this discord has postings up about people looking for others to join. Without a server to join, you can always start a solo game
basically, it's up to the players to run servers, not the game itself
Oh, okay. Got it.
Thanks a lot, @floral token
my list is full of servers
That's the "community" tab, and all of those servers are private; you need to either be whitelisted or have the password to join them
so is HIS the community tab and not all are private
Hey does anyone know how to switch the game to local saves after being on cloud saves?
In game, Start -> Manage Saves button, select the save you want to be local and click "Move to Local"
If you want to disable steam cloud altogether, you can do it through Valheim's properties in steam
thanks Kevver!
you don't need to be whitelist, many of the servers are open and dedicated
I've join a few myself
Have fun finding those servers in that list. When you find them, perhaps you can let the others know about them
because the only way to find that out is to literally bruteforce try servers until you randomly find one modded in that way
At the very least they'll need a password which you won't get in that list.
there are plenty of servers without the key icon which indicates no password required
that hurt
that's not true
most of them are whitelisted, some of them are not which the mod highly recommends against
No, only modded servers will have no password.
it's called the serverblankpassword mod, and it does exist, but i haven't even seen a server using it that doesn't have a whitelist behind that
clearly you need to read the message. Some servers can be joined from the community server list but at the players own risk, whether majority require passwords or not or modded or not is irrelevant.
no, it's not
it's all relevant, and you're not getting the idea of whitelisting that i'm telling you about
on the vast majority of those "passwordless" servers, they're only allowing particular Steam IDs to join, and those "passwordless" servers are all there because of a mod, vanilla doesn't have that feature
so it looks like it's open, but if you try to join, it just won't let you
there are definitely some servers out there that are completely open, they're just not easy to find in that list.
so give the young person the right info. This community list should be populated but it's mostly private dedicated servers
true, i misspoke, it's not that they don't exist: they're private
anything I can do to stop trolls from chasing me if I can't kill them?
If an enemy doesn’t attack for 60 seconds it will lose aggro. Why can’t you kill them?
Any flint weapon is good enough if you roll to dodge the attacks (rolling gives short invincibility) and don’t get your stamina too low
uuh, shmoove, running through forests helps cuz they can't go in a straight line
other than that, flint spear + be good at timing rolls
who is free to play together
hey guys I made the bronze but was wondering which weapon I should make
the ategir, mace or sword
this elder needs a good weapon but I also need something to prevent trolls terrorizing me
also brionze is really expensive so I only have like 13
really looking for some feedback
Atgier for trolls sword or axe for elder
Depends which is more of a priority for you right now
They both have great power attacks
alr thanks
Hey im trying to get a server set up with a couple people, I have a pre existing world in mind that we plan on using but when I send the world files over none of the buildings are there. Any advice?
oh yea, pls @ me in the reply so I dont forget about this
So when i get crysral battleaxe i dont need iron axe for chopping wood anymore?
Crystal battleaxe is more of a weapon than a tool but I think it would work as an axe if you really dont want to carry two axes
Well it seems to.mow down trees much more efficiently than iron axe
I have not yet killed modder
i installed the valheim vr mod but the stamina keeps draining and doesnt regenerate anyone know how to fix that?
are you sure you put both the .fwl and .db files in there? one of them contains all of the edits to the world
I seem to get on fire even though I'm at a good distance from a campfire. Is it a recent change they did or did I just never noticed?
I'll double check that, thanks for the tip
Why sword or axe for Elder?
Slash damage
But elder takes normal damage from pierce slash and blunt
He’s weak to fire which makes fire arrows great, and literally any bronze weapon (maybe other than pickaxe) works great too
Ah good to know. I killed him the first time with fire arrows so that makes sense. Just always seemed like my slash weapons did more but guess I was mistaken
When I killed him later times
Does feel weird an axe doesn’t do better than a spear
But since he’s an early boss I think they just made him forgiving
Also since Elder is a tree, why doesnt his own power give you bonus damage against him
is it perma rain in the swamp?
ye
rip, wasnt like that in shrek tho
Is dx better than vulkan
whats this
One of the two vendors
vendors? like ''traders''?
Yep, you trade coin for items
Go see. It’s good.
That one specifically also has a bit of a quest thats pretty fun
this?
Yep, that should start the quest
why are they so spread out on the map
Three different biomes each have a miniboss dungeon that gives a chest you have to deliver to her to unlock her full inventory.
And there’s three of each dungeon.
:)
First time in the Plains?
ye and my food just ran out
At least it wasn’t a deathsquito…
oh my
We had a portal near a deathsquito spawn for a while. I swear it knew when I was coming through underprepared. Got me like EVERY SINGLE TIME. One shot to the back of the neck.
lol sounds like me in the swamps
We’re two biomes past it now, but I am still cautious when I enter a Plains area.
have you been to the ashlands?
What crops can be planeted form the Ashlands? I know ||Vineberries||, just not sure what else is so far.
Well, Ashlands is “two biomes past [Plains]”…
im slow
As far as I’ve seen, just that one crop. And it’s a little bugged right now (very slow to grow and fruit, sometimes loses growth and fruit for no apparent reason).
Hehe. No worries.
yh just pulled an all nighter for the fun of it
anyway is there anything tp know abt goblins?
Listen for the giggles, Fire ones hurt WAY more for some reason.
They hit hard. As you’ve already found out. But that’s true of everything in the Plains. Learn the different types and their behaviours. Try to take them out from range, if you can. They will all run around a lot. But they can be blocked, parried, and staggered quite easily.
Fire ones are the worst for sure.
are they weak to anything specific?
Not as far as I’ve been able to tell.
IIRC, I found fire and frost quite effective in the Plains generally. But that’s somewhat more to do with other things there.
I feel the Plains is more about what you eat and what you wear than anything else. High stamina and speed are really useful.
So just pure bad luck on our side then 😅
it is from a mod, dont worry 😄
Just built a himmenafl, is it fine for mistlands?
yes
