Tar is when you use dark wood stuff lol but oh well

[lyric saffron]

Dark wood do not get damage by water ?

[subtle parrot]

It does not

[lyric saffron]

Is it the only solution ? There is resin or something that could be use as Glorious said ?

[subtle parrot]

It is the only solution in game currently, there are those other things but they don't utilize them in that way like they use tar

[lyric saffron]

But it is impossible to make stairs in dark wood :c

[subtle parrot]

That is true, but there is stone stairs as well, which one would have access to when reaching dark wood level.

[loud linden]

No, I was expressing desires, not realities.

[lyric saffron]

Ok thank you ^^

[loud linden]

Although, it doesn't change the fact that there should be a standard build set that each new material can be used for.

[frank bobcat]

how do i cook serpent meat? when i try putting it on the wood cooking things it says i need something stronger, and in all the videos ive seen ppl always use them

[mellow lodge]

there's an iron cooking spit

[frank bobcat]

i see

[lime drum]

What does the resetenv command do exactly?

[frail cave]

it resets whatever env you've manually set on that session

envs are "basically" weather, though the atmosphere of dungeons is also handled through envs.
the env command can temporarily override the weather or dungeon env with whatever you want until you either leave the world or use resetenv

(in a multiplayer session, only the host sees envs set by the env command, for the other players, weather and dungeon atmosphere still functions as normal)

[lime drum]

Thank you! I was curious if there's a command to reset pickables or otherwise return areas to an unaltered state by the player?

[frail cave]

not directly. you can use skiptime to get respawning pickables to respawn earlier than they normally would, but that's all you can revert that way.

[halcyon crag]

other closest thing to do would to be reload save

[fringe sundial]

Yes. I believe it's something like wind (intensity) (direction).
IE: wind 1 150
Wiki should have a list of commands in a collapsed table.

[lilac coyote]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console#Cheat_commands

[hollow mantle]

You know, I never thought of them as the Plains dungeons... but I guess they are...

[lilac coyote]

Yeah, I've always described them as such but usually get shot down.

[buoyant peak]

Well nvm then

[hollow mantle]

And here I was totally expecting you to be like "No, because [technical reasoning]"! 🤣

[fringe sundial]

Love poking around with devcommands. I have a whole "rock collection" near yag's shrine because I wanted to know what each rock/stone was in the commands.

[shut holly]

they are totally open dungeons

[frail cave]

they're fir trees but scaled up.
almost all randomly generated objects have a random scale range depending on where they generated. vanilla's spawn command unfortunately has no way to change this

fir trees generated in the black forest have a size range of 200-250%, planted ones have a size range of 100-250% and the ones on the mountains range from 150-300%

(unfortunately planting them in the black forest or on mountains still uses the planted size range)

[loud linden]

Totally interesting, but where the heck did you find this info?

[frail cave]

from jere, the game has given me no reason to doubt it

i would link to the message but that was way before the server exploded 😅

i think it came up when someone was talking about their planted oaks being smaller than naturally generated ones, all the numbers i have written down are from plantable trees.
(and yea, planted oaks have a smaller size range than generated ones for some reason)

epic embed fail
the gif is the ant with the pack of his stuff that looks homeless
thats me rn
i had full iron and died once and the grave despawned immediately
so im cooked lmfao

[subtle parrot]

Lol this channel doesn't allow gifs

[frail cave]

you could try restoring a backup of your character through the "manage saves" menu

[cloud kite]

great idea, ill try it, thanks

[frail cave]

hope it works out ^^"

[dire hamlet]

thanks again for last time 🙂

[sullen valve]

been looking for swamp crypts

found a well looking thing with stairs going into water. tried going down it but dont think i can. thats not a crypt is it?

[true steeple]

No. Crypts have locked iron gates with 2 green torches, and are above ground.

[sullen valve]

having bare trouble finding crypts

keep finding loads of small strips of swamp but nothing big

[true steeple]

Make sure to look out for turnip seeds while exploring swamps. They’re like carrot seeds but yellow

[sullen valve]

reckon that swamp is big enoughh?

[subtle parrot]

It's a pretty nice size

[sullen valve]

i didnt see any crypytys whjen i went

[true steeple]

How much have you explored? They could be further in

[small nest]

there could be few but deeper, dont waste your stamina so you can run to meadows in case something happens

[honest cairn]

guys is this rare or something? never saw it before

[subtle parrot]

It's from after the mistlands update

[true steeple]

You get it by killing geirrhafa

[frank bobcat]

i found 3 leviathans all on the same spot, is this rare? does leviathans respawn? if so, is it on the same spot like sea serpents?

[true steeple]

Sea serpents don’t respawn at the same spot, it’s random like every other enemy.

Leviathans dont respawn after sinking, but if you quit the game before they finish sinking you can cancel the sinking and continue mining. (I haven’t tested this)

[frank bobcat]

i see

when i find leviathans they usually go down on my third/fourth chitin thingy

[true steeple]

Yesterday I mined a leviathan and it didn’t sink

[frank bobcat]

thats crazy

[jagged badge]

Pretty sure it's rng with every hit and once it triggers is a set timer.

The probability might approach 1, but I don't think it ever reaches it.

[tulip tartan]

do enemies never respawn??? i'm trying to get my stuff but an abomination keeps spawn camping my gravestone

ive been taking a ton of precautions like being away from the swamp biome for a while, etc but the abomination is just sitting there every time i try to get my stuff

[true steeple]

Enemies only despawn if spawned by night (not anything spawned at night) or if they’re part of a raid

[tulip tartan]

so they just stay there until killed?

[true steeple]

If you don’t know yet, rolling gives invincibility which is great for avoiding larger attacks

[tulip tartan]

yeah

[true steeple]

Abominations can’t despawn

[tulip tartan]

but it's a lil difficult when there's also 2 draugr archers right behind it

with too good of an aim

[true steeple]

Try to bait the archers away, they’ll run toward you if you hide behind something

[tulip tartan]

the abomination also broke my longship😭

[true steeple]

If there’s a workbench or other base piece nearby the materials won’t despawn

[tulip tartan]

the abomination broke my base, portal, and workbench

it's across a massive ocean biome so it takes like 50 years to get there every time i die

[honest cairn]

fenris armor or the wolf thingies armor?

[shut holly]

yes.

[mellow lodge]

this is why i never dock my boat near a swamp. i find the closest safe biome, dock it there, with a portal. then go into the swamp with more portal gear, and portal in the swamp. usually named 'crypt'. gotta be extra careful

[true steeple]

I always make wolf armor because I’m not lucky enough to find enough fenris hair.

[true steeple]

If there’s a meadow near the swamp, build a bed there so you don’t need to sail every time

[honest cairn]

XD is it that hard to choose lol

[tulip tartan]

there is a small one, but not sure

[true steeple]

Give it a try, you’ll run out of boat materials eventually

[shut holly]

i like and use both, for different things. you don't need both, but i like both.

• fenris i use regularly even later in the game.
• wolf armour is nice while in mountains for sure, but once you get upgraded padded armour it usually ends up in a box or on a stand

[mellow lodge]

i was able to make max quality fenris chest before i got any silver. i'll probably make wolf leggings and helmet though. i like armor points

[true steeple]

Wolf chestplate is useful for permanent cold resistance if you’re getting unlucky with wolf trophies

[true steeple]

How many caves did you go through?

[shut holly]

tame a pair of wolves for trophy overload

[mellow lodge]

i got super lucky. 1 frost cave gave me 41 hair. second frost cave gave me 0 lol, but i got tetra fish in it

[shut holly]

you think I'm brave for looking for 2stars but you were running caves in iron...?

[tulip tartan]

the swamp is so hellish

i greatly dislike the swamp

[mellow lodge]

ignorance is bliss! caves were added after i stopped playing before. i was actually using bronze mace at first. then iron lol

[shut holly]

i don't think i ever got to mountains before caves were added. i was too distracted playing with building mechanics :x

[tulip tartan]

draugr are a pain, abominations are resistant to everything i have, nothing despawns, i'm constantly poisoned and out of stamina, and i keep finding body piles everywhere

[mellow lodge]

iron sword or fire spouts was my key for abominations. but maybe take it slower? i like to make noise and attract only /some/ mobs, and kill them on your own terms. don't let yourself get attacked by a bunch

[tulip tartan]

it's a lil difficult when an abomination spawns the moment i attack a body pile

[mellow lodge]

they don't spawn out of thin air. you'll see the glowing tree stump. and why get close to a body pile? just shoot it from a distance with arrows?

[tulip tartan]

ive never noticed the tree stump, and i was low on arrows

[mellow lodge]

you've never noticed the small, glowing green tree stump? i feel like you're running around like a crazy person

slow down, pave the paths with your hoe, look for stuff

the noise of the hoe will attract creatures and you can pick them off as they come, rather than running towards a body pile and attracting everyone with the sound of fighting

[tulip tartan]

creatures respond to sound?!?!?!!

[mellow lodge]

yes

fighting, chopping trees, pickaxe, hoe, crafting buildings

[tulip tartan]

i thought it was just a radius

[mellow lodge]

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

see the part about noise

abominiations scared the crap out of me at first (also added after i stopped playing before). So I crept through the swamp at first like a baby, eyeballing every single tree stump looking for the green.

[tulip tartan]

how should i avoid serpents, since 2 have spawned in the fastest path to the swamp

[mellow lodge]

longboat or karve? in my longboat i just cruise by them usually. i also had 2 in a path from a swamp.

first iron went to longboat hah

[tulip tartan]

ive ran past them pretty easily ina my longboat but i gotta make a raft to get to the swamp

[true steeple]

Could you try to go a different way? A slow route is better than a route that would get you killed.

[tulip tartan]

makes sense, but i don't wanna get caught at night in the ocean as well

[late stirrup]

Tbh they are pretty hard to spot on max graphical setting with all the other effects, especially when you don't know what you're looking for ^^

[true steeple]

You could find a meadow to sleep before night

[late stirrup]

If you are struggling really hard for bodyrecovery there is a discord and reddit dedicated to helping with just that 🙂

[tulip tartan]

do you have the invite???

[late stirrup]

That being said I have some free time right now, so ask away and I'll happily help 🙂

[real nebula]

They should have a post in #1024264966712340510 that you can search for

[tulip tartan]

i really need help with getting my body back

[late stirrup]

Sent you the invite in a PM 🙂

[mellow lodge]

maybe turning down vegetation quality might help? but i don't know, it's the swamp, there's not really vegetation there. I never found them hard to see. But I am realizing that I play this game way more cautiosly than a lot of people

[late stirrup]

I meant that for him, I know what to look for, but it isn't easy like you said ^^

[mellow lodge]

okay. "easy", is relative. i looked up what they looked like before i went into the swamp, since it was new.

[late stirrup]

Not everyone wants to spoil themselves 😛
But then dying is to be expected ahah

[frank bobcat]

when i try to fish it says "its not taking the bait", am i missing somthing?

[late stirrup]

The particular fish needs a special bait 🙂

[frank bobcat]

how do i get those

also, ive been trying to tame a one star boar, ive given him lots of berries and mushrooms, its been like 5 or more ingame days and he still isnt tamed

[frank bobcat]

im using the mossy bait in the black forest, isnt that what im supposed to use for those fishes?

[late stirrup]

You have to craft them with the cauldron 🙂

[late stirrup]

I honestly don't know for sure ahah, check the wiki !
It'll tell you the proper baits 😄

And for the taming part, make sure the boar isn't aggroed or is in the "searching" (fleeing in his case really) mode.
Creatures won't progress taming in those states.

Also you need to be in range of the creature for the taming to progress 🙂
And like you were doing, it needs to be fed 😛

[hollow mantle]

The ingredient you use to make the bait informs what biome it’s for…

[frank bobcat]

ye ik, thats why im thinking its strange

[frank bobcat]

yeah, im using it in the right biome, it says the message i quoted

[subtle parrot]

Have you tried the regular bait or just the mossy bait in that area?

@frank bobcat

[frank bobcat]

both

[cloud kite]

hey mate -- it worked for me but my friends are still having issues lol. thank you!

[steel thorn]

does a standing torch have to be lit to stop spawns in its radius?

[frail cave]

what issues are those?

[real nebula]

It can stay off just for the spawn protection

[tulip tartan]

apparently while my friend was mining in the black forest, he saw a dark robed guy with a staff, and he disappeared when he got close

he says when he disappeared it looked similar to hugin's effect when he leaves

[hollow mantle]

Ooh… spooky…

[gray geode]

can you grow raspberries and blueberries?

I'm sick of going out to get them

[steep tusk]

No.

[radiant mauve]

Is there a way to recover a tombstone that's in one of the ashlands lava pits? 😭

[velvet coral]

Hi all, r there any workings mods that when u deposit an item into any of ur chest, it will be auto sorted among all ur chests n auto stack. So that items don't take up unnecessary slots if the slot is not full yet

[steep tusk]

#mods-discussion

[sacred narwhal]

ahh... I have a floating copper node.... i isolated it from the ground and it doesnt fall

[steel thorn]

someone give me some guidance, Im well into the mistlands, got the blackforge and a bunch of recipes, the crossbow, but I still dont have any magic. What do I need to do to unlock magic? I also have tons of carapace but the armor hasnt unlocked

[steep tusk]

First checklist:

• Black Marble
• Yggdrasil Wood
• Black Core
• Sap

Do you have each of these things?

[steel thorn]

Sap...

Ive not found a way to do anything with the tree roots

[steep tusk]

Have to find a dverger tower or dock and get creative about stealing their extractor.
(Or just kill them and take it)

[steel thorn]

ah... didnt even know they had such things. So its like the fuling village raiding

Ive not found any such settlements yet. Thank you

[cloud kite]

one issue in particular. the skill issue of trying to get our stuff back after getting whooped by a two star troll in a swamp biome (?)

we will get it eventually lord willing 🙏

[sacred narwhal]

putting in tin ore and im getting copper... does it supposed to work like that?

[late stirrup]

There's a pretty good mod for that, and you can choose to have planting those have a cost or none. PlantEverything 🙂

[lilac coyote]

That's Odin.

[hardy veldt]

am i wrong for this?

[late stirrup]

Bring another one to keep him company and you're good !

[odd warren]

valheim is saves are saved as .db or .fwl ?

or i need both?

[mystic solar]

Yes, check out basalt bombs. And turn auto pickup off when going to get your stuff, so your inventory doesn't fill up before already.

[true steeple]

You need both files

[odd warren]

thx

[mystic solar]

There are separate save files for the world and the character(s)

[true steeple]

Worlds have a .db and .fwl file

[gritty stratus]

Hey i would start a new would but they dont load it. I have install the game today and it dont work. can someone say me what i do wrong?

[shut holly]

just wait and let it do its thing. the "not responding" dialogue is just windows being dumb.

[gritty stratus]

XD ok then i wait XD

[shut holly]

it only does that when you first make a world or after the game gets a major biome update 👍

[gritty stratus]

my friend say his dedicated server dont start but he have update it. Is that the same thing?

[shut holly]

probably yeah. if it's not crashing to desktop or the mouse freezes then more than likely the game is just taking a few minutes to generate world centent.

[gritty stratus]

he say it dont start and go
automatically in a new boot

[true steeple]

Has he changed some of the settings in the .bat file?

[gritty stratus]

no

[visual garnet]

I'm preparing for The swamp.

I have currently got a bronze axe, but I consider also crafting either a sword or a mace.
Is it worth crafting them?

[languid pewter]

mace definitely

[visual garnet]

OK. Mace then. Thanks! 😄

[midnight plank]

Hey guys, I started a modded valheim world and i cant seem to find any copper deposits anywhere. I have checked the closest black forest near me and the nearest after that but still cant find any. All im seeing are what looks like stone deposits.

[ebon bough]

I went through the main, most southern ashland island in my map. explored the entire thing only to find 1 Fortress, and the only chest had 0 elemental stones

[visual garnet]

Is there some magic button you can press to make the roof ridge fill the gap?

[ebon bough]

alt to reset it, then e to swap snap points

[visual garnet]

thank you

It works wonders! 😄

[ebon bough]

its dumb how long it took me to know this was a thing lol

[tepid isle]

I want to get my brother interested in Valheim, does anyone know of any good videos showing off how awesome the game is?

[hollow mantle]

Alt???

[ebon bough]

https://tenor.com/view/alt-f4-gif-20750595

[steel thorn]

for some reason it didnt occur to me the extractor would not be portalable

45 minute sail back home ._.

[frail cave]

Would the ballista work or nah?

[buoyant peak]

Probably, but the range arch will be reduced

[frail cave]

Currently making these small thingies for them to shoot out of (Left new one, right old one)

also based Silverhand pfp

[buoyant peak]

Left one will definitely have better results.

Although altitude is also a factor.

Ballista have a maximum range of like 28m in around a 45° arc

[frail cave]

ballistas will be sitting at around 6m from the ground

shouldn't be too high

[steel thorn]

I just need 3 more black cores and cant find a second infested mine ._.

[vague wolf]

can someone give me a good armor for mountain please

[hollow mantle]

Use bronze armor, make frost mead, kill wolves, find silver, make wolf armor.

[buoyant peak]

Still worth making some obstacles that attempt to keep enemies away from the walls

[true steeple]

Why bronze armor? Troll armor is better

[buoyant peak]

I'd say sharp stakes, but considering they're a waste of resources it's not worth it

[frail cave]

water trench at the front, stakes on the siddes to pathen enemies to go towards the only entrance

[small nest]

does anyone know why some sounds in mistlands (foes not from the biome such as crows, fulings etc.) are distorted? some fulings sound normal and some have distorted sounds, deeper voices same for crows

[tulip tartan]

Ooh, that's interesting

[thorn spire]

the mist distorts all sounds coming through it.

[fringe sundial]

Not sure, but I do know each fuling type (shamin, berserker, ect.) Have their own voice type.

[thorn spire]

so if you have mist on the edge of a biome, the sounds from that other biome will sound strange.

[small nest]

oh thats really interesting, maybe thats why thunderstorms sound odd in mistlands, thanks for info

[thorn spire]

exactly

[vague wolf]

how many frost resistance potion can i make in 1 fermentation process

[true steeple]

You always get 6 meads/wines from a fermenter, and it’s not affected by the resource rate world modifier

[vague wolf]

can i use that right away as potion

or smthn like that

[true steeple]

If you try eating it you will drink it so you can have it in your hotbar, your inventory or a chest

[hollow mantle]

I should have said Iron, actually. Wolves are vicious. So I feel decent armour values beats out any benefits of other armors when you’re starting out in the Mountains.

[true steeple]

I often troll armor going into mountains and the wolves don’t do much damage

Root would be good too, anything from a swamp is balanced for wolves

[small nest]

im always making max iron but its grindy as hell, i might be the only one who's favourite biome is swamp lol

[true steeple]

I never make max armor, level 3 is good enough and much cheaper

[small nest]

and sometimes the only option 👀 especially with workbench armours

[hidden sapphire]

hey all, i bought the original soundtrack, how do i use it?

i don't see it applying in game

[true steeple]

The downloadable soundtrack can be listened to at any time in the steam library. It does not affect anything in-game.

[hidden sapphire]

oh it isn't a thing that applies in game?

[true steeple]

No, it lets you download the audio files for the soundtrack and support the developers

[hidden sapphire]

that would've been nice to know beforehand, alright ty

[real nebula]

All Steam soundtrack DLCs work like that

Should be described as such in the Store description for it

[somber grail]

Is anyone else getting the error 1002 for application hung often? I am crashing 2-3 times a night and speed running is taking a hit. lol. I have done everything from drivers, install/reinstall of the game, bought new pieces of hardware where I was older at and most of the items on the Reddit post for crashes. My computer is an AMD 9 7950x, asus motherboard, asus 3080 gpu and 32gb corsair ddr4 ram 2x16.

[fringe sundial]

1002 is the event ID, not the error code. It tells you where to find more details on the error in question, but if that section doesn't help you troubleshoot it, try asking in the steam help section or programing. I would try steam help section first as it looks like you have valheim via steam.

[lilac coyote]

wonders what else buying the soundtrack could possibly entail

[tawdry nova]

Good evening. Please tell me how to activate the console on a mac? I tried to register "-console" in steam, but it doesn't work. I bought the game for the second time in the appstore. Created a file "valheim.sh "It doesn't work either. Does anyone run the console on a mac?

[hollow mantle]

Alternate music in-game, perhaps.

[lilac coyote]

Hm, I guess.

[hardy veldt]

long live jeremy houston williams.
Gone but not forgotten
RIP chain👇
7/25/24-7/26/24

[true steeple]

How did he die?

[hardy veldt]

starvation

[true steeple]

Greydwarves don’t starve

[hardy veldt]

was brutally shot and killed

[crystal kiln]

as he should

[hardy veldt]

i used to take him on daily walks😭

[true steeple]

Did a skeleton kill him?

[hardy veldt]

yeah

[crystal kiln]

when it comes to valheim:
"Violence is a question. And the answer is "YES"."

[true steeple]

Get a pet greydwarf brute so it can defend itself

[hardy veldt]

this was his last walk

[true steeple]

Stabbing him multiple times a day with a sharp harpoon probably wasn't good for his health

[hardy veldt]

probably not but he loved going on walks

[true steeple]

You could get a shaman instead so it can heal

[hardy veldt]

shamans werent as nice as jeremy

[true steeple]

Is that his real head or does it belong to someone else?

[hardy veldt]

that was him

his brother came by the other day looking for him

[true steeple]

I never noticed their arms are that long

[hardy veldt]

💀 😭

[fringe sundial]

Explains the "reach" haha.😋

[small nest]

how to tame a greydwarf movie teasers?

i gotta watch this

this is actually bit sad, getting greydwarf to cage and back is not an easy job

you can actually try to find 2 star greydwarf or g brute (spawners are perfect)

[tulip tartan]

i wonder how nasty a muckshake is in real life

yall got a recipe?

[true steeple]

It's raspberries, blueberries and ooze, so it can't be that bad if you clean the ooze somehow?

[tulip tartan]

still nasty

also, i tamed a boar!

[fringe sundial]

I mean Boba is kinda slimy

[tulip tartan]

i guess

[lilac coyote]

But without the 'muck' it's just a fruit smoothie.

[fringe sundial]

Raspberry &blueberry Boba...

[tulip tartan]

the muck is pretty bad though

you never know what blobs are absorbing

[small nest]

dirt, bones, corpses, water, green stuff

[fringe sundial]

If the muck piles in the crypts are any indication, nothing good..

[small nest]

sounds tasty for me

[lilac coyote]

That was my point...

[true steeple]

Clean them in meadows water before you kill them for the perfect muckshake

[tulip tartan]

lmao

[frail cave]

is there any way to make balistas target everything EXCEPT players? It's so annoying

[true steeple]

It's either one enemy or everything

[small nest]

how rare are ||queen's|| vegvisir's? i have explored few dungeons and i cant find any, when i was exploring other dungeons from lower biomes vegvisirs were common

[fringe sundial]

Mistlands vegvisir are second to plains for difficulty to find IMO.

[small nest]

oh i also found shit loads of plains vegvisirs, maybe 5 across 4 plains

[fringe sundial]

Of the 3 times I fought the queen on other playthroughs, 2 times I found the boss first before the stone.

And for plains it was about 7 find the boss first and 3 finding the stone.

[small nest]

looks like i will have fun time in mistlands, i have upgraded my gear to max, got some sweet mistwalker and carapace shield and now im looking for vegvisir and 4 sealbreakers

[fringe sundial]

Keep in mind that this game relies on RNG, so my experience won't exactly translate for you.

[small nest]

yea ik, on my first playthrough 1 year ago i had really bad luck with my friend, little swamps with no crypts, plains everywhere, our start island had only meadows and black forest, elder bossfight interupted by fulings etc. not nice stuff

im quite sad that we made the decision of stopping after yagluth, mistlands are in my top due to how cool the progression is

[cloud moss]

my friend can't join my server, any idea why?

we have the same versions

[sullen valve]

guys not a single sunken crypt here

[earnest mountain]

How can I extract models from Valheim?

[small nest]

well then you mates have to sail to another one, it seems very unlucky

[small nest]

explore stone towers im sure youve seen some, these have chance of having 3rd boss's vegvisir

[lilac coyote]

Mods, probably.

[lilac coyote]

It happens.

[cloud moss]

do we need all of the same mods? or just a couple of key ones?

[lilac coyote]

Depends on the mods, if they're server side or not etc. They might know more at #mods-issues

[earnest mountain]

Can someone please help me, I'm trying to figure out how to extract models from the game and I can't for the life of me find a way!

[fringe sundial]

I'm not sure there would be anyone who would know except maybe the dev team, and it's best not to bother them. Only other place I could think would be the programming chat section: https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550301341782027

[lilac coyote]

Anyone who mods, will.

[sullen valve]

im bare struggling to find sunken crypts

[fringe sundial]

Didn't think about how they would need models to make mods...but that checks out.

[subtle parrot]

I've ran through a lot of baron swamps, it's not uncommon. You might have to look through 2 or 3 more swamps until you find a good cluster of them

[sullen valve]

is the longship faster than the normal ship

[subtle parrot]

Yes

[fringe sundial]

Wiki actually has a chart with ship speeds on it.

[tulip tartan]

this game is beautiful

[small nest]

wait until mistlands with no mist

[tulip tartan]

are there any ways to get a lox before moder?

i really wanna have one as a pet

but i know they'll probably two shot me

[lilac coyote]

You can go to Plains whenever you want.

[tulip tartan]

well, are there any easier ways to tame a lox without getting killed by the other enemies

since i only have swamp level gear, i know i'll get bodied by most of the creatures there

[late stirrup]

I had success farming lox when game launched for food when I got lucky and found a very small patch of plains in the borders of a swamp/black forest. I could've easily tamed them too. The other mobs from the plains didn't spawn too unless at night.

Keep in mind that loxes are basically blind, so sneak around them to drop cloudberry is actually pretty easy.

If you can't find a small biome like I did, your best bet is to sneak at the very edge of a plains from a black forest and pray for the best.

[tulip tartan]

what about harpooning them into a pit?

or they might be too big to pull

[subtle parrot]

Pit should work, but not sure about harpoon, you could have some wood floor over it and let it smash the floor or break it with a hammer while it's over it. Just be careful of squitos and fulings

[tulip tartan]

you can't harpoon them? interesting

[subtle parrot]

Not what I said, I just don't know if it will work to pull them into the pit. Never used it except on a boar once.

[tulip tartan]

okay i tamed a lox

i figured out that if you have 2 people harpooning it, it'll move pretty well

but with just me, it was still running around with barely an effect from the harpoon

[sharp sierra]

Anyone willing to donate a stack or two of carapce? My game bugged out and I lost so much 😦

[slate kindle]

So I have to disconnect the Server if I want to play Steam Deck Games

[gleaming island]

i accidentaly zoomed like 500% in and idk how to zoom out again, i pressed something like ctrl, space and c

[somber wharf]

How do you fix being stuck in the falling animation when trying to mine Flametal?

[sacred narwhal]

how do I unlock a karve again? like it says to discover bronze nails of which i had but no bigger boat...

[fickle citrus]

ancient bark i belive

or corewood

[tulip tartan]

definitely not

pretty sure it's finewood

[fickle citrus]

i know it's wood of some sort lol

maybe ancient is for longship

[tulip tartan]

it is

what kinda doofus managed to ride a lox in root armor

love the art, but it's really silly that some guy managed to beat moder in root armor

since he has a saddle

and that goofball up on the lox is still using an iron atgeir

the only guy that has progression accurate gear is the guy next to the lox

[fringe sundial]

They might have "just" got to the plains and the 2 thought their armor/weapons would be enough. The 3rd is definitely taking less risk, that's for sure.

[tulip tartan]

yeah i guess they were right considering they had to get black metal for those saddles

[fringe sundial]

And it's likely fan art, so no guarantee it's 100% accurate. Heck, even the official stuff stretches a bit(IE: the "in case you missed it" notice had one viking being bandaged and there are no bandages in the game).

[tulip tartan]

i'm fairly sure this is official since the valheim store sells them

as postcards

[fringe sundial]

Ah. Then ya, it most likely is.

[tulip tartan]

i'd love to have a lox in real life though

closest thing we got to it is like a bear probably

theyre kinda like snapping turtle bears

[subtle parrot]

They're more like giant lizards with fur

I mean.. can I pet that dawg?

[tulip tartan]

your hand would come off, i mean imagine the bite force of those boys

[subtle parrot]

Lol definitely

[tulip tartan]

i've been chased by a few too many to not know how destructive they are

on par with abominations if not worse in terms of annoying obstacle ability

[subtle parrot]

But much faster than aboms iirc

[tulip tartan]

most definitely

i got chased by a herd earlier today and they were hot on my tail

i'm lucky trees exist

or i'd be cooked

[subtle parrot]

Indeed, gotta use the environment to your advantage

[tulip tartan]

i probably should quit snooping around the plains though, i still need to find bonemass's spawn

i'm all ready for him, and so is my friend, so we just need to find a vegvisir or come across the spawn

i have managed to tame a lox, but i have no way to bring it back to base

hopefully moder isn't too hard

[subtle parrot]

Just make a small farm near where you tamed the lox and come back later. You can plant almost all plantable foods in the plains

[tulip tartan]

smart

[steel thorn]

I just want magic and I cant find 3 more damn black cores

[dire moat]

Any ideas on why I would be having 100% cpu usage with this set up?

[tropic granite]

Do you have unlimited fps? I have +-similar pc and it's loaded for ~50-70% with 60 fps at ashlands

[dire moat]

this is title screen with 60fps and everything at low

[mystic solar]

Title screen has some issue and is eating lots of cpu power. Best to not let the game just sit on it for longer.

[mystic solar]

Root harnesk is actually really good in the plains, makes squitos and spear fulings almost harmless. Mind you, I wouldn't wear the full set, but if someone is a die hard archer, why not.

[gaunt marlin]

If using env clear how to enable back raining?

[cyan gazelle]

What can i do with vulture egg?

[rough summit]

i cannot start valhiem decided to see in the discord for any tips i keep getting a unity error and it fails to launch

[hollow mantle]

There’s a food you can make with them.

[cyan gazelle]

well i have no ideea how to unlock it

[true steeple]

Make a cauldron improvement with ashwood, fine wood and flametal

[frail cave]

go to the pinned messages in this channel there's a video

[dire moat]

Thanx for the help but I did figure it out. Somehow an old driver was installed making the small gpu that comes with the cpu do all of the work. Not sure how it all happened but a simple update fixed the issue.

[humble ledge]

HI all, just a quick question about the map. I can see coordinates on my map and distances, but apparntly other people on my server cannot and I do not understand why. I dont think its a mod because we all use the same ones - can anyone explain or help how to turn it on or off?

[cyan gazelle]

i did

found the roast crust pie

[fringe sundial]

If it really is a mod, asking here would help with troubleshooting:https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599

They will likely ask for a list of mods you have installed among other things.

[cyan gazelle]

if i join another server il still have my equipment from the server i created?

[late stirrup]

Inventory is bound to character so yes !
You can even bring materials and loot from another save by filling your inventory and world hopping 🙂

[cyan gazelle]

oh good to know ,ima keep items home haha

is the deep north added in the game ?

[late stirrup]

No not yet, it's the next and last biome to be released 🙂

[cyan gazelle]

oh can t wait ,already reached ashlands and soon there will be nothing left to do

[late stirrup]

You and me both ! 😄

Building tho, it's the true endgame 😛

[cyan gazelle]

the true endgame is using the brain 100% for a good base design

[late stirrup]

Both. Definetely both.

[novel aurora]

Did they remove the ability to deconstruct boats at some point? I swear I deconstructed one in the past, but last night it wouldn't let me.

[late stirrup]

It was never there ^^
Your only choice is to bash it 'til it dies 😛

[novel aurora]

OK, we played a lot in the early days (Pre H&H), and I thought I remembered that I could, but maybe just my mind playing tricks on me. Thanks for the response!

[novel vigil]

I nedd help

[true steeple]

What with?

[novel vigil]

Fight

[late stirrup]

Can you be more specific ? 😂

[true steeple]

Use your weapon until the enemy doesnt have any more health

[novel vigil]

Ok

[loud linden]

Congratulations. You win the award for least useful advice in the history of gaming.

[true steeple]

But I also got the least useful question

[vapid warren]

if you want a more helpful answer we need more specifics

[loud linden]

There's no obligation to answer a question. You made that choice.

[late stirrup]

But it seems that advise was all he needed tho !

[gray geode]

what's the highest level of comfort a house can have

[tribal wyvern]

well, you can absolutely get higher than 21 minutes, and 21 minutes is the full length of a day in game, so...

[loud linden]

I can get to lvl 18. Honestly, I'm not sure how comfortable my house is, but I tried really hard to provide good foundations.

[fringe sundial]

a day and night cycle is 30 minutes iirc. I believe you can get up to that with all items (+seaconally locked items).

[loud linden]

I think so too. It's 21 minutes of day-time, and 9 minutes of night-time iirc. (Happy to be corrected)

[hollow mantle]

IIRC, you get comfort level + 7 and current max comfort is 19, I believe, so not quite a full day/night cycle.

[tribal wyvern]

if you hit 21 minutes, that's genuinely all you need, unless you plan to run around for the entire cycle without ever returning to your base

[calm ledge]

how do i look at my seed after i created the world?

[tribal wyvern]

easiest way is to log out and look at it on the list of worlds

[calm ledge]

ok thanks

[gray geode]

how do I get that dark granite like stone for building?

[hollow mantle]

Black or grey?

[gray geode]

black

[thorn spire]

it becomes available later in the game. What biome are you in now?

[hollow mantle]

I comes from Biome 6, to be precise.

[gray geode]

ok but what biome

[hollow mantle]

Mistlands

[cyan gazelle]

witch melee weapon is better for ashlands?

[subtle parrot]

Mistwalker is a great starter weapon for ashlands, and the iron sledge can be helpful

[cyan gazelle]

i do have that but better then mistwalker

i need to know what i should make first

[subtle parrot]

Gotcha, I really liked the ||berzerkir axes||

[tulip tartan]

finally beat bonemass!!!! yippee!!!

[cyan gazelle]

i saw those ones with thunder are pretty cool

[subtle parrot]

Very true

[small cedar]

Good day. I have the following problem. When creating a character, I try to create a game world. When the world starts loading, my game crashes. And the valheim.exe application is not responding. What is this problem and how to solve it? If u can. u can write on russian))

[subtle parrot]

Just be patient let it load, it will eventually work. You can either just wait or also click the 'wait for the application to respond' button. But do not click away from the game or tab out because then it will not work.

[small cedar]

Thx ♥

[tulip tartan]

Do silver weapons specifically set cultists and ulv on fire, or is it the spirit damage that sets them on fire

[true steeple]

They don’t get set on fire. Spirit damage deals damage over time too

[tulip tartan]

Fr? I thought it was like ghost damage or something

[true steeple]

Spirit deals damage over time (like fire) to bats, werewolves, undead and ghost enemies

[odd warren]

why they dont spawn?

[true steeple]

How long have you waited since they last spawned?

[odd warren]

idk

30 sec baybe

it was night so i gtg

[odd warren]

so i should change my question to how often they spawn yeah?

[true steeple]

Wiki says 5 minutes

[odd warren]

ouch

[hollow mantle]

Set up a little platform in a tree nearby but outside of spawn suppression range. Put walls around it, and set up a workbench and a portal there. Not enough to count as a ‘base’ (to avoid raids), but enough to prevent attacks over night. Then just hunker down whilst you go make coffee or something.

[ocean dove]

Hello! Lost my character after reinstall my windows. But I see my char in steamcloud. How can I recover him? Help pleease 🥺

[hollow mantle]

Not done it myself, but I believe if you open the game and go into manage saves you should be able to restore everything from there.

[ocean dove]

No, it doesn't work with only with it char... :(((

Because I can reinstall anothers chars

[near widget]

hey does anyone have any experience with valhost? i want to get a server going with me and my friends and ive never paid for a server before

im also gonna run mods on it and was wondering if that would be a problem somehow?

[ocean dove]

Resolved. It was fom public test build, I used code and got my char back. Thanks for your attention!

[tulip tartan]

i finally tamed a wolf! any tips?

[mellow lodge]

get another one and breed them

[tulip tartan]

why

[hollow mantle]

Wolf army.

[mellow lodge]

meat and fur. the meat is good for 2 recipes. fur is good for a bunch of stuff. they can be guards too. yeah, wolf army. 12 1star wolves take down Morder pretty easy 🙂

[tulip tartan]

uhhhh i'm not sure if i could successfully tame a 1 star wolf

[mellow lodge]

... yet

[tulip tartan]

is it worth fighting with them though? they don't have a lot of health

[subtle parrot]

Dig a pit somewhere on the mountain and mark it, look around for a big bad wolf, lead it into the pit and trap it there. Feed it and hide in waiting. It'll tame eventually and then you can have it follow you back home.

[subtle parrot]

When you have more than a few of them their dps is powerful

[tribal wyvern]

there's no limit to how many wolves can follow you at once. breed a large enough army, and the answer will always be yes

it's not a question of if wolves can kill something, it's a question of how many wolves it takes

...flying mobs are the exception, of course

[tulip tartan]

that's what i did for the wolf since there's a meadows right next to my mountains, i'm just a lil afraid that it might hit me and i die immediately before trapping it

[tribal wyvern]

if you've got iron armor (especially level 3 iron), you'll easily be able to tank some hits

also, there's a good trick with wolves - don't sprint constantly, sprint at the exact moment they get close enough to bite you. they'll miss every time

[mellow lodge]

you listen for their bite sound and sprint. that's what i do anyways

[tribal wyvern]

i don't even listen for it, i just sprint as soon as they get in the right range to be able to bite

[mellow lodge]

i'm usually dumb and my camera is in too tight and i can't see it lol

i need to remember to zoom out

[tulip tartan]

i have full wolf armor except for the helmet and cape

i got the root helmet and deer cape

[tribal wyvern]

then a 1 star wolf shouldn't be a problem, so long as you have 100+ health

that's more to avoid being staggered than to survive, though

[tulip tartan]

i eat mainly stamina food though, but i can make health food

[tribal wyvern]

again, just sprint as soon as it gets in range to bite, and it'll never hit you

[tulip tartan]

okay, i'll try that

[hollow mantle]

I would recommend making the wolf cape.

[tulip tartan]

i don't have a trophy yet

i'm focusing on making silver so i can get the crystal battleaxe

since there's no silver atgeir, my axes stat is the second highest

[hollow mantle]

Ah, in that case, def get yourself a breeding pair. Butchering tames is the easiest way to get their trophy.

[tulip tartan]

wouldn't that take longer than running around the mountain and killing wolves?

[tribal wyvern]

might take slightly longer, but it's much less work

[tulip tartan]

i like to fight, so i think i'll just kill wolves while mining silver

[tribal wyvern]

if that's what you'd prefer, but breeding is a good idea regardless, since wolf meat will almost entire replace boar meat in your diet soon

[tulip tartan]

ive been using carrot soup, muckshakes, and black soup

i don't have a need for wolf meat

[tribal wyvern]

wolf skewers, which you can make as soon as you have onions and a butcher table, are second only to Serpent Stew for Mountain tier foods

[mellow lodge]

wolf skewers is why i setup my wolf farm asap

[tiny violet]

For me, the thing about breeding wolves was all the boar needed to fed them. so i started breeding wolves, then almost immediately after needed to start taming boars too. soon after I got the Cauldron Stirring raid and it like ruined my boar farm. I know some people love the taming part, some less so. I would def say it is optional

you get one of those "hunted" raids and you can just slaughter a bunch of wolves

[subtle parrot]

That's why you make your farms away from your main base

[mellow lodge]

i started with boars, and lucked into 2star boars. that made sustaining wolves trivial

as i look at my turnips, carrots, onions, boars and wolves, i wonder, isn't this a farming sim? 🙂

[tiny violet]

yeah for sure. like people who enjoy taming and breeding probably start breeding farms for each tameable animal as they go, in order, so everything is already set and ready to go. but if someone is debating just beginning to tame and breed for wolves just for wolf skewers or for a trophy etc, I would def say it is optional and not necessary. but if you already have the boar farm setup etc then it's less difficult

[mellow lodge]

absolutely optional. many ways to play the game

[tiny violet]

yeah that's a good idea but you can also get raided while over there in that area. but yeah overall youre right, i was new to breeding at the time

[subtle parrot]

You only get raids with 3 or more "base items" around, your farms don't need those to farm

[tribal wyvern]

it's optional, but it makes things so much easier down the line, because you never have to go hunting for specific animals just to get a bit of meat or hide (except deer and serpents, of course)

and yeah, as soon as you're finished building in the area, remove any and all base items except for maybe a portal, if it's too far from your base to just walk. that removes any chance of raids

[hollow mantle]

But you have to be near them for them to breed.

[tribal wyvern]

just make four walls and a roof around your portal, and give it a door. stand there and afk for like 20 minutes after throwing down 2 pieces of food for each breeding animal

if you do a cheeky infinite breeder, you'll have 5 times the number of animals within just that 20 minutes

[hollow mantle]

But if you go back to your main base like once a day, to sleep, you don’t have to AFK. And can just load them up with a stack of food.

[tribal wyvern]

this is where I might recommend making a pit as deep as you can dig it, and placing a breeder (with a roof) above the pit

that allows you to breed very large numbers and keep them protected

[subtle parrot]

And they'll do that while you're farming

When I say farm I mean farm, not a breeding pit

[tribal wyvern]

I'm not saying you have to breed animals, I'm just pointing out there are ways to do it where it becomes a complete non-issue, even if they're at your base

[hollow mantle]

I find I’m at our main base way more than I’m at our farm.

[subtle parrot]

That's totally fair

[tulip tartan]

Oh, I didn't even know that was a thing, I'll have to make a butcher table for sure

[tribal wyvern]

you make it using silver, iirc

[tulip tartan]

I actually don't even have an iron pickaxe, since my friend mines the silver and I protect him

[tribal wyvern]

ah

[tulip tartan]

I also have a megingjord so I can carry much more than him

[tribal wyvern]

welp, just upgrade your cooking station, and consider taming a couple wolves to relentlessly breed and butcher

[tulip tartan]

I'll see if I can luck into getting a 2 star wolf

Can I still breed a starred wolf with a non starred wolf, or would the baby not get a star

[thorn spire]

it depends on which parent it comes out of.

[tulip tartan]

So a 50/50?

[thorn spire]

If you only have one starred wolf, keep breeding until you get a starred cub, then kill off all the non-starred.

[tulip tartan]

Brutal but fair

[thorn spire]

If both parents have a star (or two stars) then your offspring always will.

you're breeding them to die anyway.

[tribal wyvern]

yeah, the way it works is, whichever wolf gives birth produces a wolf of the same tier as itself, so you want to reduce your breeders down to only the highest tier wolves available to you

[tulip tartan]

I'm actually pretty intrigued about what someone else said about 12 one star wolves killing moder

[thorn spire]

sure it could happen.

[tulip tartan]

Or I could get 6 2 star wolves

[tribal wyvern]

yeah, wolves are busted, but as far as killing Moder, it's more a question of how long it takes the dragon to land than how many wolves are needed

[tulip tartan]

Hmmm, how does moder landing work

[tribal wyvern]

if he stays in the air for a full ten minutes, you won't have any wolves left to attack

[tulip tartan]

Do I have to shoot down her wings?

[tribal wyvern]

RNG, mostly

[thorn spire]

yep

[subtle parrot]

Probably 8

[thorn spire]

if you have your bow, and shoot her, I'd guess she'll eventually land.

[tulip tartan]

Does she have a twist

Cause most forsaken seem to have some sort of twist that makes them harder

[tribal wyvern]

Moder is in the air more often than not, and the breath attacks suck, because they clutter the battlefield and make it harder to avoid being hit by the next one

[subtle parrot]

She flies a lot

[tulip tartan]

The elder spawns annoying roots, bonemass makes it constantly rain

[tribal wyvern]

the swamp itself makes it constantly rain*

[tulip tartan]

How many arrows would it take to kill her then?

[tribal wyvern]

depends on your bow and what kind of arrows

[tulip tartan]

Actually, if you take bonemass out of the swamp, he keeps it raining

[tribal wyvern]

also how much you've upgraded the bow

[frail cave]

yea bosses force their own weather

[tribal wyvern]

basically, there is no concrete answer on how many arrows

[subtle parrot]

100+, if you're not a great shot maybe 200

[tulip tartan]

Sounds difficult

[tribal wyvern]

but if you have a Draugr Fang, which inflicts poison, you'll have an easier time

[subtle parrot]

Hit her in the face with melee weapons when she lands

[tulip tartan]

I have a upgraded one

[tribal wyvern]

DoT helps a lot, even if it doesn't do a lot per tick

[tulip tartan]

Good to know

[tribal wyvern]

if you have a Draugr Fang, just use the strongest arrows you have

[tulip tartan]

I have like 70 poison arrows

Does it not stack or is that just fire

[tribal wyvern]

if you've gone into the plains, you can make Stinger Arrows, which are ridiculously cheap for the damage they deal

[subtle parrot]

Iirc it doesn't stack

[tulip tartan]

I do have 20 needle arrows but deathsquitoes are a pain, and getting spotted by lox is basically a death sentence if there's no forest nearby

[tribal wyvern]

right, needle arrows, not stinger

you can actually one shot deathsquitos with a bow, if your aim is good

[tulip tartan]

I do have a tamed lox but no way to get it to the main base

[tribal wyvern]

and lox are practically blind, so you can avoid them fairly easily

[subtle parrot]

Aim to hit them right when they get in range before they hit you, it'll take practice and many deaths but it's satisfying

[tulip tartan]

I usually melee them before they hit me

[tribal wyvern]

also a note, a root armor chest will reduce the damage they deal down to just 40, before accounting for your armor

[tulip tartan]

Even then they deal negligible damage

[tribal wyvern]

deathsquitos are honestly laughable after getting either root armor or wolf armor

[subtle parrot]

Easily parried by a level 1 silver shield too

[tribal wyvern]

just make certain you have enough health to not get staggered by the deathsquito and you're good

[hollow mantle]

I’ll often take them out as soon as I see them. Before they see me.

[subtle parrot]

Yeh definitely easier to just shoot them with a bow

[jolly dome]

I have a really weird problem with the staff of frost on 1 PC. We have 2 PCs that can play Valheim, and when I use the staff it works fine. When the other computer uses it, it doesn't work. We hold down the mouse, but the staff only seems to activate when the mouse attack button is released and the toon points it but the staff doesn't fire. It's as though we needed to "hold" releasing the button. Keybindings for primary attack is the same. Confused why this would happen, can't find anything about it searching around. Suggestions? It's a SteelSeries Rival 600 mouse, default keybindings. The other weapons fire with no issue, and we don't have an issue blocking either.

[weary schooner]

If I accidentally remove the pin for a boss spawn on the map, is there any way to get it back besides manually placing my own?

[worldly scarab]

Do you remember where it used to be?

[jolly dome]

If you retouch the vegvisir, it probably will regenerate the boss pin.

[worldly scarab]

There is a pin for the monsters that you can place yourself in the map. I mean it's shaped like the boss thing.

[weary schooner]

I have a pin on it, but it doesn't use the boss icon which sucks

[worldly scarab]

@weary schooner There's one that looks sorta like the boss icon right under the skull and crossbone one. Maybe use that?

[subtle parrot]

To my knowledge, at least on xbox, that only hides or shows the discovered boss alters, not actually usable to place a pin on the map

[tribal wyvern]

If you know where the boss location was, you can travel directly there and interact with a runestone there to regain the marker

Otherwise, you need to find one of the many random runestones around the world that will mark that location

[worldly scarab]

@subtle parrotI'm on PC Steam. >.> maybe our maps are different?

[subtle parrot]

Possible

[fiery pollen]

is there a way to get a troll to leave its cave? or is there a time when a troll leaves its cave on its own?

cuz i keep dying to them in such enclosed spaces

[tropic granite]

There are many ways - kill, eliminate, etc

[worldly scarab]

@fiery pollen Trolls are why I put Funland on Passive Mobs. I have one that likes wandering my main base, when it rains. I don't know what their pathing is, but sometimes they wander around. Maybe you will have to wait for it to move and run in?

[fiery pollen]

i cant kill it, thats why im trying to get it to leave

[fiery pollen]

wdym wait for it to move and run in?

[worldly scarab]

I don't think there are any lure items kind of wish there were.

@fiery pollen It isn't going to follow you inside o.o

[tropic granite]

No one can leave a dungeon it spawned in

[subtle parrot]

Afaik they don't really leave the caves, but one will spawn outside of caves at certain times but I'm not sure of the criteria involved in that

[fiery pollen]

i mean get it out

[worldly scarab]

I thought we are talking about o.o one outside not inside.

[fiery pollen]

oh alr

[worldly scarab]

Can't they just run passed the thing and go out through the main door? or are they really stuck?

[subtle parrot]

They can't exit

[worldly scarab]

Can't you build a portal even in a dungeon?

[subtle parrot]

Like skeletons can't leave chambers

[subtle parrot]

No, but you can put a camp fire inside

[worldly scarab]

@fiery pollen maybe build a ton of fires in the room with the troll and make it run over them??? Maybe that'll kill it?

[subtle parrot]

It would set it on fire but you'll have to keep rebuilding them lol

[fiery pollen]

uhhh maybe

[subtle parrot]

But eventually it would die

[fiery pollen]

ill try that when i get my stuff back

[worldly scarab]

Well it's really the only thing you've got here. XD I don't know how else to kill a troll without a weapon powerful enough.

If you are in a solo world, just put it on hammer mode long enough to get through this.@fiery pollen maybe. Otherwise, tag it, run away, hide, and tag again... It'll be a really long fight though.

[fiery pollen]

whats hammer mode?

[subtle parrot]

Free build

[worldly scarab]

In the difficulty settings for a server, there's an option for free building. It's also called Hammer Mode.

It can be turned off and on. If you collect the materials to initially build something, it'll let you build a copy without the actual material value to make it. That's how I build bases in my Funland Server. @fiery pollen It would make building fires extremely easy because you don't need the materials, but watch your hammer's durability.

@subtle parrot o.o if they had the floor braizer XD option, would the troll trash those too??? Just curious.

[fiery pollen]

im trying to not cheat like that, i think i can get the materials to spam campfires

[worldly scarab]

@fiery pollen Just suggesting it, if you have no other options is all. There's no shame, when you are completely blocked into a corner.

[subtle parrot]

I'm not sure, they might not even be able to step on it tbh, but they could still hit it while swinging the fists around

[subtle parrot]

Just need a hammer and wood and stone, don't even need a workbench for camp fires which is why you can build them in dungeons in general

[worldly scarab]

If you get too close to those things they set you on fire, anyway. XD I may have to try this against a troll though. I'm already going to have to play tag with Elder with fire T_T I didn't quite have enough to take him down, last time.

[subtle parrot]

I just shoot the elder in the face with fire arrows or chop him with an axe

[fiery pollen]

alr thx

[worldly scarab]

@subtle parrot I stink with a bow. That's why I've never tried to cheese him with one. It takes me too long to aim and fire. Someone else suggested fire, and it works, but I just don't think I had enough fire power to manage it last time.

[fiery pollen]

yea not needing a workbench is great, i heard people just camp in burial chambers and stuff

[worldly scarab]

You can, but if you've already looted the whole thing, there's not much reason to stay.

[subtle parrot]

It's useful when out exploring, especially in early game if you're trying to progress quickly

[subtle parrot]

Yeh I just hide behind the pillars if I cheese with the bow lol cheesing with camp fires is much quicker though, especially if you slap a few down and then chop his feet with a bronze axe you'll do some serious damage very quick, just watch out for him stomping on you

[worldly scarab]

@subtle parrot That's what killed me the last time was the stomping part he got outside my ring of fires and stepped on me T_T

[fiery pollen]

yea

[indigo dagger]

So i sailed off the edge..... any way to retrieve my stuff?

[true steeple]

Use the fly command or load a character backup

[indigo dagger]

how do i do that?

[true steeple]

Which one?

[indigo dagger]

load back up

[true steeple]

Use the manage saves button on the character select screen

[indigo dagger]

it did not work, still got my crap gear

[true steeple]

Is that backup too old or too new? There should be multiple to choose

[indigo dagger]

prob too new

[true steeple]

Look for an older one on the list. You can see when they were saved

[indigo dagger]

i tried one and it did not work and now the older ones are gone

[true steeple]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console#Enabling_the_console
Use the command devcommands, then fly to safely reach your grave.
Use fly again to stop flying, and devcommands to disable cheat commands

[indigo dagger]

ty will try that

[placid parrot]

hey all, does anyone have a link to a house design that isn't crazily complex, but has enough space for the different building stations in a black forest biome?

[crystal kiln]

2x2 4m core wood, flatten ground, leave 2 2x2 floor fields open for campfires, slap a roof on it

black forest needs veeeeery little in terms of crafting

[silk iron]

There unfortunately isn't a colorblindness mode in the vanilla game, but there's an (unmaintained) mod you can use to make mushrooms and raspberries purple instead of red. It's a little bit involved to set up, but these instructions should work at this time: https://github.com/siljelb/mod-valheim-meadows-colorblind-fix

[south ridge]

HP influence parry and blocking?

[buoyant peak]

Yes

[south ridge]

mean taking more HP food is better when going to fight a lot is it

[buoyant peak]

Going melee and more specifically blocking a lot, especially with shields

[loud linden]

How does helath influence blocking/parrying?

[tropic granite]

More HP = less staggering by blocking

[loud linden]

Oh, susceptability to stagger, not inducing stagger..?

[tall vine]

staggering is the orange-ish bar that pops up when you block. The parry multiplier relates to that, as well as health and the block base value

[true steeple]

If you’re using a buckler you can parry a lot of enemies with 2 stamina food

[south ridge]

including elite mob like fuling berserker and golem?

seems like not all biome have buckler, only swamp and Forest

aight you can parry them with normal shield too. i was dumb
tnx 🙏

[subtle parrot]

The round black metal shield is basically a buckler

[nova sparrow]

My game keep crashing at the begining. anyone have a same issue?

[tall vine]

if you're generating a map for the first time, it takes awhile - it is generating the whole (massive) world

[nova sparrow]

How long do I need to wait if the game crashes everytime?

[tall vine]

is this an already existing world?

[lilac coyote]

Until it's actually done what it needs to do. It'll only happen once.

[frail cave]

you don't press or move anything, the "crash" is just windows getting impatient if you send inputs

[tall vine]

yeah if it has never finished generating the world, just let it sit 5-10minutes and you'll be good after that

[nova sparrow]

I tried to make anew one

[nova sparrow]

I did ont press anything lol

[tall vine]

yeah just let it sit until it finishes

[nova sparrow]

ok I'll try to wait alittle longer

[tall vine]

don't close out or you'll have to re-do it

and it can even do the opaque "not responding" window look in Windows... just ignore that

[nova sparrow]

Is this becasue Ashland update?

[tall vine]

don't think so, the world is just absolutely huge in valheim

[lilac coyote]

Yes.

[nova sparrow]

I've played before ashland update and it is normal

[nova sparrow]

Thankss

[tall vine]

ah okay, I actually started post-ashlands so it was always slow for me

[nova sparrow]

Oh I see

It working now after I ignore the windows error. Thank you all!

[tall vine]

yep no worries. It was definitely confusing the first time I did it as well, seemed way too slow

[tribal wyvern]

yeah, no, the first time you start a new world has always been slow, even before Mistlands was a thing

[frail cave]

it may not be generating the whole world, but it's placing all points of interest (stuff like dungeons, stone henges, ruins, etc.)
and whenever an update releases that intentionally changes poi worldgen, the game forces every world you enter for the first time on that patch or beyond to re-generate all pois in unexplored parts of the world.

[fiery pollen]

How much armor do I need to survive a melee attack from a troll? Rn I'm being one shot even when I have 100+ HP and have 10 armor

[tropic granite]

He hits 60-90 depending on the attack he performs, you can't die now

[fiery pollen]

Really??? I've been killed in one hit twice

[frail cave]

is it a logless troll's ground smash? that one hits twice for 70 + 50 blunt, could theoretically be a lot.
are you on a higher difficulty?

[fiery pollen]

Yes the ground smash thing

[frail cave]

yea just avoid that by walking away or dodgerolling

[fiery pollen]

Im at default difficulty

[frail cave]

i don't think it's a big hitbox but i could be wrong

[fiery pollen]

Oh man I'm so bad at that

[frail cave]

it's relatively easy in valheim, at least compared to some other games 😅 the dodge i-frames are pretty generous and instant

[fiery pollen]

Also when you say ground slam hits twice do you mean it makes 2 attacks or there are 2 instances of damage?

[frail cave]

2 instances of damage

[fiery pollen]

Huh looks like I'll need some practice

[frail cave]

that imo makes logless trolls more dangerous than log trolls

[fiery pollen]

Alr that makes sense

[fiery pollen]

Log trolls? What are those?

[frail cave]

trolls that hold a log. they have the same damage on their attacks but more reach.
their heavy attack doesn't have that second AOE hit though

i think it's a 50/50 chance for a troll to have a log or not

(granted, log trolls use their heavy attack much more frequently than logless ones, pretty much alternating between heavy and light. but still)

[fiery pollen]

Yeesh

Alr thx

[hardy veldt]

i stand no chance right?

[frail cave]

might be able to get an unaware arrow into it for a good start from that hole in the wall, but it's gonna be dangerous melee unless you're good at timing dodgerolls

[tribal wyvern]

just hold a torch and he'll leave you alone. avoid the fight entirely

[spring radish]

what gear is recommended for bonemass?

[tribal wyvern]

level 3 iron with a root mask, or fully upgraded root armor, and a club weapon, preferably at least a level 3 iron mace. he's very weak to blunt damage

[tall vine]

iron mace is by far the best from that biome. Frostner if you can luck your way into some silver

better bring a poison mead

[spring radish]

I already have the mace and have crafted the iron sledge as well, my current armour is lvl 3 root harnesk with iron helmet and iron legs

[frail cave]

(regular weak to blunt (x1.5) but yea)

[spring radish]

will I be OK to take on bonemass with this gear or is it worth it to upgrade first

[tribal wyvern]

then bring poison resist mead and you're good

[tall vine]

don't think the root harnesk will help you in this one, but otherwise should be good

[spring radish]

ok

[tribal wyvern]

upgrading the armor will help, but the biggest concern is the poison

[tall vine]

might be worth taking a hoe and raising the ground around the altar if it is too watery, also clear any close spawners

[spring radish]

yeah i just thouhgt it would be worthwhile to get considering how useful it can be later

[tall vine]

poison mead is essential

[tribal wyvern]

small warning, though, Bonemass hits hard, so healing potions will be a big help, and you're gonna want to at least try to parry his attacks

[frail cave]

or dodgeroll, costs less stamina

[spring radish]

im pretty good at parrying

[tall vine]

yeah parry or roll, normal health meads are always good. Poison is just a "special" thing for bonemass

[tribal wyvern]

i guess dodging is a good alternative, but for me personally, the combination of buttons needed to do it makes it very hard to pull off

[frail cave]

that's fair, i'm used to similar key combos from MHW 😅

[tall vine]

it's essentially the same timing as a parry, but with right click+space

[spring radish]

yeah coming from dark souls made me find it unusual

[tall vine]

best to practice before a boss though

[tribal wyvern]

right, but you have to hold right click before you hit space, and it feels much more awkward than just blocking for half a second

at least for me

[tall vine]

yeah fair, if you practice you can hit it very fast though, it's just a bit clunky at first. I didn't do it for a long time and practiced on summoned trolls lol

[spring radish]

thanks for the help guys

[tall vine]

👍

[worldly scarab]

@tribal wyvernHeading off. Don't work too hard. You've been up almost as long as I have. ☕ And you're still helping people.

[tribal wyvern]

it's barely 43 minutes after noon for me rn, and I'm technically on the clock for work rn anyway

[tall vine]

if it goes south or you need a battle buddy I can possibly help out today https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1266907563937632276

[spring radish]

Maybe

I might try to improve my base a but first so the post bonemass raids aren't as annoying

[tall vine]

no worries, just offering. feel free to dm if so

[tiny violet]

Meads are worthwhile. Poison resist absolutely. Medium Heal and Medium Stam are also worth considering. But that gear with Poison Resist Mead seems decent enough. The iron mace will be your best bet

[spring radish]

Yeah I've got a decent supply of mead, but need to upgrade to med health meads

[tribal wyvern]

absolutely, the minor health mead is basically pointless against Bonemass, he'll easily deal more damage than it heals before the cooldown finishes

[fiery delta]

is fishing even a real thing? fishes drain way too much stamina

[tall vine]

imo it is very, very poorly implemented, so never spent much time on it

[tribal wyvern]

fishing can be done, but you need to stand on the shoreline, not a dock or pier, never cast your line as far as it can go, and when you get the fish close, stop reeling it in, instead just walk inland and drag it out of the water that way

if you're fishing out on open water, good luck

oh, and always make sure you have at least 100 stamina if you're fishing, preferably 150+

until you level up the skill quite a bit, it'll eat through your stamina like crazy to reel in fish

[last atlas]

is there any way to get rid of that weird 'fog' looking thing? in what case does it start to appear

[sudden glade]

What happens if I have a modded server and someone without the mods trys to join

[tribal wyvern]

it mostly shows up when the ground in one spot has been significantly lowered below where it was originally. it makes sense in the bottom of a hole, not so much when the area is compeltely open and that's the only spot with fog

there's unfortunately nothing that can be done to get rid of it, it'll keep coming back on a regular basis

best you can do is build up just high enough to hide it below your floorboards

[tropic granite]

It's just a Black Forest's/Plains' surprise for builders

[tribal wyvern]

nah, it shows up in meadows a lot too

it's caused by your terraforming, not by the biome

[tropic granite]

I'm sure it isn't in swamps

[tribal wyvern]

yeah, in swamps it's not possible to lower the ground enough to see fog before you hit water

[tropic granite]

Work smarter not harder 👆

[last atlas]

thanks appreciate it

Does it go away permamentely after some time eventually?

[tribal wyvern]

nope

it'll occasionally disappear completely, but it'll keep coming back

especially when it rains

[neat bluff]

Believe it or not there's a mod for everything.
I guess this is not the right channel to recommend them?
Come the the mods channels and ask the same question.

[arctic thicket]

guys does anyone know how to fix fps in mistlands? the mist was causing a friend the other day a lot of problems and he doesnt want to play anymore

[tall vine]

turn down graphics settings? 😅

[fervent ravine]

lower graphics setting or cap the frame rates. some games think 'unlimited' frame rates is que to attempt to keep increasing frame rates. if you cap it at 45 or 60, everything works to keep FR at that set limit.

[arctic thicket]

I think he tried that but Ill let him know thanks for the info

[odd warren]

Boars in a constant state of "frightened"

[frail cave]

is there a fire source like a torch or campfire anywhere nearby?

[little tinsel]

When I get world save from my friend and I become a host, will I have progression of my character or his? I remember like 2/3 years ago someone gave me save and when I started world I got his progression

[frail cave]

world progression (enemy spawns at night and invasions) are saved on the world, items, skills, equipped powers and stuff are saved on the character

so if you enter that world with the same character that you already use on it, nothing should change for you

[little tinsel]

I mean character's skills

okay

thanks

[sweet crescent]

can i get some tips on fishing? its pretty werid and i dont quite get it

[sweet crescent]

mainly angler fish

[true steeple]

I haven’t done much fishing. What problems are you having?

[sweet crescent]

i just cant seem to get an angler

[true steeple]

Are you using the right bait?

[sweet crescent]

yep im using sticky
and im in a swamp

[true steeple]

Angler fish are in mistlands

[sweet crescent]

oh

lmao

[serene yarrow]

Anyone knows why i cant see iron sledge in the forge menu?

is it because im missing one of the items or?

[wary nebula]

Materials
Ancient bark x10
Iron x30
Ymir flesh x4
Draugr Elite trophy x1

[true steeple]

You need Ymir flesh and a draugr elite trophy, and it’s likely you haven’t found both of those yet.

[fringe sundial]

many playthroughs I never had the opportunity to make that hammer because the trophy requirement.

[mellow lodge]

even ankle high water kills surtlings, right?

[fringe sundial]

it should, but I would go about nee high

[mellow lodge]

cool, thanks

i figure since the surtlings ended up in my moat, might as well fill it with some water

[fringe sundial]

only way to fill it is to be deep enough to hit water level, but ya, that's how you make a surtling farm for unlimited coal and cores.

[mellow lodge]

yeah, i got those in the swamp. and my base is close enough to the ocean that i can hit the water level pretty easy

actually, i guess on this side, i would need to be able to go lower, ah well

[tall vine]

you'll have to hang around a draugr spawner til you get an elite trophy

[mellow lodge]

and ymir flesh

[lilac coyote]

Absolutely.

[lilac coyote]

This question confuses me.

[tulip tartan]

why

[lilac coyote]

I don't know what they want to do.

[tulip tartan]

no i mean why is hildir worth looking for

[lilac coyote]

Oh, because she's a trader that sells you things and gives you the location of the three mini bosses.

[tulip tartan]

oo sounds fun

[limber wolf]

Yo how do I kill moder I unloaded a whole stack of fire arrows on him and his hp aren’t even depleted by 10% yet

[lime drum]

There are many ways to make a dragon cry. 🐉 💧

Get creative. Surround the altar with fire. Build a cage/arena to trap them and fires, use spikes.

[compact heath]

She refuses to die because you misgendered her 😛 For arrows I recommend mainly Obsidian Arrows or Needle if you have them already. Every few seconds I also apply poison with poison arrow to keep that ticking. High bow skill and lots of stamina helps make the fight go quicker, but she does have a lot of health. You can also melee her with lots of different slash or blunt or pierce weapons as she is neutral to it. Bit tricky have to learn her melee attacks for this.

[steep tusk]

Stop relying on your OnlyBows for bosses and whack her to death when she lands?

[hardy veldt]

ok 2 questions about the planbuild mod

she is supposed to have a "ground phase" where she lands. melee her. she also often gets buggy/glitchy and you can usually pin her down and get a lot of melee damage in

[cyan glen]

Hi all, just wondering if you got any tips on how to find the trader? I’ve looked in every single black/dark forest and haven’t found him yet

[tulip tartan]

Go farther, black forest are everywhere

[cyan glen]

Down is towards the ocean and up is through a swamp

[tulip tartan]

Get boating then

[cyan glen]

But that’s sooo painful. I do have their 3 boat as an option but iron lol

[lilac coyote]

Every single black forest? You've barely scratched the surface.

[tulip tartan]

All you really need is a karve for looking for haldor

[frail cave]

you only need to scan the shores. the discovery radius for the traders is pretty far, so thorough exploration of forests isn't needed, he's automatically marked on your map the moment he spawns

[tulip tartan]

Rafts are annoyingly slow so I advise to never use one unless you're absolutely forced to

[frail cave]

and black forest is the most common land biome in the game, generating all the way to the western and eastern edges of the world, though haldor's possible spawns stop a little distance before that point

[cyan glen]

Why isn’t he just on the starter island. That’s sooooo dumb

[frail cave]

he can be, it varies, since he's not even required for progression

i almost always find him on my way to the elder, within 50~ meters of the elder's altar, but i've not seen any concrete evidence for a connection there might just be my dumb luck

[tulip tartan]

Small price to pay for

[cyan glen]

IM TRYING TO GET IRON but it took over an hr and a half to get 30 from one dungeon and I get 2 or 3 shot by draugrs 🙂

And that massive tree that that just doesn’t despawn

[frail cave]

only nightspawned or invasion enemies despawn at all, though calm enemies always walk back to where they first spawned

[finite sorrel]

My advice? Don’t try and get Iron without having found the trader. Get out in your Karve and explore more Black Forest. You’ve not explored enough to find the trader yet.

[cyan glen]

I’ll get a sht tonne of bronze then

[finite sorrel]

Trader has 2 items that help with mining iron

[winter matrix]

sorry very new to the game how do you support a two layer building with a roof properly

[cyan glen]

With support beams

You ever watched how to train your dragon?

[winter matrix]

yeah, why?

[steep tusk]

What biome are you up to and how tall are you trying to make it?

[winter matrix]

meadows, like very start of the game just trying to put a roof on it and its really red

[steep tusk]

You're not building 2 story houses in the Meadows.
Unless you have very short height per story.

[winter matrix]

oh okay

[steep tusk]

Swamp (3rd biome) gives you Wood Iron beams that are ridiculously supportive and also access to Stone building.

That's when you can start going nuts.

[winter matrix]

explain this one then

[steep tusk]

See previous about very short story height.

[winter matrix]

ahh yeah

[steep tusk]

Like on the right side

That's how tall I would make ONE story.

[true steeple]

3-4m is a good height, you don’t need it to be taller than that

[steep tusk]

I do 🤷‍♂️

4m, now that you edited, I agree with.

3m is "fine" if I'm doing a 1 story with an arched roof, or as the top story because it will have the roof. (Top story can even be 2m if I'm building wide enough that the roof really opens the space.)

But a bottom floor needs to be 4m for me.

[cyan glen]

IM BOATING 🙂

If you dismantle a boat do you get everything back?

[subtle parrot]

Yes, you'll get everything back, but you have to hit it until it breaks, they don't break down with a hammer

Well, unless it's a sledge lol

[buoyant nexus]

will it stay if I dont destroy it?

[true steeple]

Yes, you need to break it

[buoyant nexus]

Can I use it to farm the things the enemies drop?

dunno if its useful though.

[fringe sundial]

I dont recognize what that is, in the context of you being in the plains, but that looks like a purple (teir2) spawner. If you do go to break it, be careful, as it may spawn starred enemies. That kinda looks like the ashlands spawner.

[buoyant nexus]

I think I forgot to check player based raids. its the first time ive seen em and Im playing on a some years old save game.

where the stone circle is already finished (exclude ashlands)

maybe ashlands too. dunno rn

[true steeple]

It could only be in plains if it was spawned by a raid, so it should be a normal spawner.

[fringe sundial]

Following the typical flow of night spawns/raids, if it was a ashlands spawner, then someone had to minimally beat the queen.

Haven't been in the ashlands since it went live so my memory is a bit hazy/old.

[slender coyote]

Yo! anyone from APAC that knows how to play the game well?

[full adder]

I just beat Bonemass so I went to the Mountains to explore and search for silver, But every mountain im finding is so small and yeilds no resources and like maybe 2 wolves. I've wasted frost resistant potions and only used up like 2 minutes of the 10 they last for.

Guys how can i rotate them poles like that? I cant rotate any of the building parts

[tribal wyvern]

you don't

those are completely separate build pieces that are always at that angle

Oh

I believe i dont have them then?
How am i supposed to unlock every structure
Im at yagu boss stage

[tribal wyvern]

...you unlock them with basic wood

[clear ice]

Nah theres no way i have them
Lemme look wait

[subtle parrot]

That's basic wood, you should have it, 45 degree beams and 45 degree x beams

[tribal wyvern]

i promise that you have 45 and 26 degree beams

[clear ice]

Lemme check

Damn

I do have them

[tribal wyvern]

you've had them since the first time you ever crafted a hammer

[clear ice]

💀😂

I guess i never paid any attention

[hollow mantle]

I’m forever both losing and finding stuff in the build menus… well not so much finding stuff… but I could swear some pieces just disappear sometimes… especially on the crafting tab… 🤣

Hi, I just got Valheim and everytime i try making and loading into a world, it loads for a while then says the game is not responsing and it crashes. Help?

You need to wait longer when it stops responding. Click 'wait for the program to respond' and don't click anything else or open any other windows.

[regal rock]

okay..

[true steeple]

It only happens when generating the world. Loading after this will be quicker

Not sure if you have tried it but I have found that, after a server disconnect, the user has to exit Valheim and come back in before they can rejoin. Not sure why it happens that way, but have never been able to reconnect w/o restarting the client.

My disconnect happened with a power cut 🙂

Which means the whole PC shut down suddenly so I definitely reopened the game, right?

Yep, sorry, thought it might have just been your router or something (playing on a laptop, for example).

[keen zodiac]

Tried almost 50 times, still unable to connect 🥲

[novel aurora]

If it's a dedicated server, maybe reboot it, if you have perms to do so. Otherwise, not sure. Best of luck.

[keen zodiac]

Yeah it is hosted on GPortal, I do have perms to reboot it but there are players playing 🥲 gotta wait until they leave

I was trying to build a wood/stone spawner in the dark forest the other day, and despite building a roof over the whole thing, they kept spawning. It may have slowed down, but they definitely kept coming.

Any idea what I was doing wrong? I also tried digging a deep pit and keeping them in there, but I didn't have luck with that either

[fringe sundial]

Only certain build able items are spawn suppressing if that is what you are asking. The workbench and campfires are the 2 most commonly used.

[tribal wyvern]

can also place down standing torches and then place a wood beam on top of the torch in such a way that only the very top is exposed. prevents spawns and will never be deliberately destroyed

[plush snow]

Hmmm I definitely had a campfire and workbench nearby. That doesn't stop spawners from spawning though

The guides I found online said you could put a roof over the spawner (the purple cloud in the dark forest) and it'd stop

Hello, wanted to know if when you are in no map mode, does interacting with the map table show you the map? would be cool and was wondering if it was a thing lol

[cyan glen]

Nails included?

[zinc sigil]

yes

[fringe sundial]

If they don't sink to a unreachable level, yes.

[sweet crescent]

what fishing bait belongs to what biome?

[tribal wyvern]

get your boat into as shallow water as possible and stand right against the mast as you hit it

maximizes your chance of getting the drops without hassle

[fringe sundial]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Bait is a whole list.

[sweet crescent]

yeesh abom trophy for the swamp bait

[sturdy knot]

hey I haven't played this game in like 2 years so i dont really know why but for some reason my fire wont start in my campfire, it's raining and theres wind but I have the wood on full but cant seem to light it

[sweet crescent]

if the campfire is in the open and its raining it wont be able to be lit

[sturdy knot]

and since I cant light the fire the game wont let me sleep, and I cant cover it since then the fire wont be lit

[sturdy knot]

damn then is there any solution to be able to sleep?

[sweet crescent]

just build a roof over the fire and you should be able to get it fired up

[sturdy knot]

okay thanks

[odd rock]

if you want to build darkwood base, does 1 tar=1 piece of bulding?

[crystal kiln]

more or less

[odd rock]

is it hard to get alot of tar?

[crystal kiln]

not really
a tar pit yields a few stacks if you are even a little lucky

[subtle parrot]

Not hard but tedious a bit. Dig a path to the edge of the pit deep enough for it to drain out so you can get all the tar from the bottom of the pit

[fringe sundial]

Drain the pool first, then pick the tar drops, or it may "get stuck".

[sweet crescent]

its alil rough to drain the pits but if you do theres tar o plently

[copper forge]

Can anyone help? Me and my friend are having issues with the game not responding whenever we try to start a world. Is there a known fix?

[silk cairn]

That's been happening since the latest update. Just wait it out it will load eventually. Could take a few minutes

[copper forge]

Ah ok will do

[silk cairn]

Happens when you're generating a new world or loading an old one. After that first time it will load quicker

[copper forge]

Ah okay thamkyou

[odd rock]

do i gotta kill moder to acces the smelter i can smelt black metal with?

[silk cairn]

[odd rock]
