[vernal plover]

Hello, I've been looking in this chat for help regarding the crossplay check/radio button in the Microsoft Store version. It's not visible for me and I can't join a self-hosted dedicated server of a friend (yes, the crossplay and all the configuration for the server is ok) the problem is in my end. I can't find anything online that solves this problem.

My firends and I tested by joining each others worlds and it works fine, but when I try to join the dedicated server throws me the error 'Failed to connect'

Furthermore, I have to check and uncheck the community server radio button for the community servers list to show up

[lilac coyote]

Theres no checkbox as it can ONLY use crossplay

[vernal plover]

The Microsoft Store version?

[lilac coyote]

Pretty much any version other than Steam.

[vernal plover]

Oh okay, then I don't know where to tackle this problem from 😅

I've read similar cases on reddit, tried reinsalling redistributables and reinstalling the game but it still the same

[subtle parrot]

Maybe an issue networking between you and the dedicated server host?

[vernal plover]

There's any way to troubleshoot that kind of issues?

[subtle parrot]

I'm not very knowledgeable in that end, but maybe somebody in #dedicated-server could be of service

[lilac coyote]

Make sure you're on a wired connection (if you can), turn off any VPN.

[vernal plover]

Ight, thanks guys. If I find something I'll write it here

[vernal plover]

Yeah I have an ethernet cable to my pc, and no vpn

[lilac coyote]

And the server you're connecting to is definitely set to crossplay?

[vernal plover]

yes, they showed me the config file and the console logs

[lilac coyote]

And you have the correct join code?

[vernal plover]

It doesn't work either

[heady merlin]

if i set the difficulty to hard and i do setkey PlayerDamage 100, will player damage increase to 100% for everyone on the server?

i think i want to play on something in-between normal and hard mode and i’m wondering if that’s the way i could do that

[manic gyro]

Does the piece resist of the serpentscale shield only affect damage blocked by the shield or is it like a generel modifier (like on the root chest) as long as the shield is equipped?

[true steeple]

It's applied in blocking so it can stack with root harnesk, and only works if you're actually blocking with the shield

[manic gyro]

Do they have a whitelist (without an entry with your ID?)

[manic gyro]

That means that it also wont help against attacks from behind, right?

[true steeple]

No, because you can't block an attack from behind.

[jovial ledge]

is the Ashlands available in the stable branch or do I need to enable test branch for it?

[frosty frost]

yep, its been on the live branch for some time now 🙂

[hollow heron]

How do i flip a building vertically? I copied this "pillar" and apparently its a 2x1 stone block put vertically. Is it not possible to replicate?

[true steeple]

It's not possible to rotate a build piece vertically. Also, you should eat some better food when in a dangerous biome such as plains and always be rested

[hollow heron]

Spent too much time building i ran out of the good foods, but thank you

[surreal crest]

Can someone help me, how to create 24/7 server for free in Valheim?

[oak mirage]

leave your pc on 24/7 cx

[surreal crest]

I can’t

[frosty frost]

maybe best to ask #dedicated-server as folks there have most likely the most info and you can even search through it if somebody already answered that question 🙂

[surreal crest]

Ok, thanks

[subtle parrot]

It's not a 2x1 put vertically, it is its own build piece, just open the build menu and it should be there next to the rest of the stone blocks

[near ermine]

can someone help me? When playing valheim on pc it works perfectly fine until i join/create a world. The game just freezes and does nothing. When clicking windows says it isn’t responding. I am playing from the xbox app on pc.

[true steeple]

You need to wait a few minutes for the world to generate/update. Don't click anything on valheim or any other window.

[near ermine]

how many minutes exactly? And why does it do this? It didn’t on my xbox and will it be fixed when the game is fully out?

[true steeple]

It's fixed in the current public test version. The speed depends on the pc. It doesn't happen on xbox becasue xbox doesn't tell you when a game has stopped responding.

[near ermine]

No i mean on xbox it doesn’t take this long. I just wait 20 seconds and its done. How do i get the public test version?

[true steeple]

The public test version won't make it faster, it will just stop the 'stopped responding' window from showing

[near ermine]

Oh. Will it become faster? Because like i said its fast on xbox

and does it take less time the next time i open my world?

[true steeple]

It will be faster next time. This only happens when a world is being generated or updated, because it takes time to do those things.

[near ermine]

I see. Thanks

[jovial ledge]

where can I see the changelong of the public test branch?

[frosty frost]

changelog?

[late hawk]

in #public-test-patchnotes

and it's also shown on steam with (public test) behind it

[jovial ledge]

I mean all the changes implemented in the PTB. Where do I see the whole list?

[lilac coyote]

#public-test-patchnotes

[jovial ledge]

I only see this in that link:
"Patch Notes:

• Fixed an issue that could cause world loading error on relogging"
  Is it the only difference between the test branch and the stable branch?

[lilac coyote]

No, that's the difference between the latest patch and the previous one.

[jovial ledge]

ok. Where can I see all the differences between the stable and the beta?

[late hawk]

there is no complete list of differences listed in one place

[lilac coyote]

There is, it's literally there. Just read the last three entries.

[jovial ledge]

this is what I was asking for. Thanks

[subtle parrot]

Even on xbox when creating a new world or going into an existing world after an update the game will take several minutes to load, I play on xbox game pass

[mellow lodge]

should probably add a window/loading screen that tells people something like "Initial world creation... this may take several minutes... keep calm and be patient"

[jaunty kayak]

Anybody help

When i join my friend i see this and get disconnected after 2mins approx

[late hawk]

oh god the naked mistlands

[jaunty kayak]

Nvm it fixed

[tiny locust]

need help. a friend left 2 days ago and came back now, but terrain change etc we did these 2 days loaded back in when he joined

[late hawk]

i heard of that bug before, i think it's unrevertable

[mellow lodge]

once i break apart a dverger ward with a cart, is there any tricks i should know? or just bring the cart to the container and break it with the cart also?

and will they get pissed if I break my own cart now? 🙂

okay, they didn't care that i smashed my cart after the ward was down

woo, and rebuilt the cart at the top near the crate, and smashed it open. i'll probably drop a portal at this outpost now

once you smash their ward, do dverger care if i used a weapon to break something in their outpost?

[subtle parrot]

Pretty sure once the ward is gone they don't gaf what you do

[mellow lodge]

confirmed. i smashed their crates with my axe. thanks

[rancid elk]

We just got our first eggs! Can fires hurt chickens / hens, and if so, how do I keep them safe while incubating the eggs appropriately?

[subtle parrot]

Put a 1m wall around the campfire and keep the eggs at least 1m away from those walls and they shouldn't spawn into the fire.

[rancid elk]

Hmm, may have to do some redesigning of my coup then. How far away will fires still incubate eggs, roughly?

[gritty shell]

Top right will tell you if you are near a campfire

[rancid elk]

Oh, it's the same, ok thanks!

Anything else I should keep in mind while trying to hatch our only two eggs?

[mellow lodge]

Once you get some extra eggs, in a huge fan of a breeding tower to pump out more eggs. I also have an automatic breeder with auto kill with puffer fish. I love it.

Just followed some YouTube videos

[blazing oriole]

hello, I have a little problem.
I play Valheim with my friend but when he is not there to launch the server for me I cannot play.
Does anyone know how we can make it so that I can also launch the server? THANKS

[subtle parrot]

One of you would have to be able to save the world file and load it in to a personal dedicated server, which you can run yourselves or start a new world through a dedicated server service, which does cost monthly to whatever provider you go through, like Gportal for example. But there is a steam tool you can use to run your own server if you're technically inclined, but that's about all I know. #dedicated-server may be some more knowledgeable folks can answer over in that channel.

[blazing oriole]

ok thank you for your answer 🙂

[jaunty kayak]

How to egg

Eggs (3)

[frosty frost]

Do you want to know how to get eggs?

[jaunty kayak]

I got eggs i need to know how to chimkem

[frosty frost]

Drop them close to fire

[jaunty kayak]

What if chimkem run

Anyway shouldni drop them seperataly or multiple at once

[true steeple]

Drop them inside a building.
Eggs wont hatch if they’re stacked

[frosty frost]

Make a fenced off area for them, you can drop how many you want but they can't be in stack

[true steeple]

If it’s just a fenced area, bats are going to take them for breakfast

[jaunty kayak]

Does chimkem jump

[frosty frost]

No

[jaunty kayak]

And do i need straw

[frosty frost]

And no

[jaunty kayak]

Fair?

[frosty frost]

That should be good enough 🙂

[subtle bay]

Is there any ** in the Ashlands

[subtle bay]

gotta X that bitch

[jaunty kayak]

Boutta

[subtle bay]

gangsign(

[frosty frost]

Oh there are 2 stars there 😄

[subtle bay]

I've seen many, upon many *'s but I've not seen two.

But thanks for confirming they exist.

I'm looking for a Chompy.

[frosty frost]

Go there ať night for better chances 😉

[subtle bay]

My friend and I don't sleep, so we've been out there for many days and nights and not seen any.

[jaunty kayak]

If eg too close to wall does chimkem spwan in wall

[subtle bay]

It depends, try to put it as close to the middle as possible

[frosty frost]

Well 2 stars are always kinda rare, don't stop trying 🙂

[subtle bay]

It CAN spawn in the wall and pop out the other side though yes.

I can't wait to see the colour of it.

I want a nice big Chompy. 💙

[jaunty kayak]

What about close to another eg

And how long should i eg

The roof is perfectly fucked

[subtle bay]

If you keep them all in the middle they should be fine.

Perfectly fucked. 💙

[modern ravine]

How do I craft the midsummer crown/flower crown? Can I even craft it?

[jaunty kayak]

Tf you mean "too cold" nah they have too good

Finna place a bo fire

[subtle bay]

During those events

[subtle parrot]

That's wild my first night there I saw 2, 2 star asks lol

[jaunty kayak]

Hold on its even fuckier ig ill leave it like this

[sudden galleon]

did you mean the maypole ? if yes you cant anymore the event is over

[jaunty kayak]

Yooo i got chimkem but hes orange, should i continue?

I got 3 chicken wing

What do they eat

[lilac coyote]

Seeds.

[subtle parrot]

No, the flower crown is a hat craftable in the same event, so still can't craft it now

[true steeple]

You don’t need food in your hotbar, you can right click it in your inventory

[jaunty kayak]

That is not what i meant

[subtle parrot]

If they're on xbox, it is easier to have it in the hotbar imo as you can't autowalk (or at least couldn't figure it out) on xbox

[true steeple]

He can’t be on xbox because the hotbar slots are numbered

[subtle parrot]

Fair

[jaunty kayak]

What yall talking about

[true steeple]

You don’t need to walk while eating food, and those 3 slots are best left for more important items

[subtle parrot]

I know you don't have to, but in the playthroughs I watched on YouTube after I did my first playthrough, all the dudes were pulling up the menu while they kept walking away from stuff chasing them, to eat fresh or drink meads. Can't think of what's more important than my food though in the hotbar, there's enough spaces for a couple weapons a shield and whatever potion you may need too

[subtle parrot]

Hotbar preferences

[jaunty kayak]

Anyway i prefer it on 678 slots its js me i play on low fps so ots harder for me to aim it in the inv

[subtle parrot]

I keep mine in the same slots

[hollow mantle]

I go with meads in 678

I feel fast access to those is more important than fast access to food. But I also try not to let my food run down entirely.

[subtle parrot]

That makes sense, I usually have them in 45, but I also don't use any potions other than healing and stamina, with the exception being poison strictly for fighting bonemass and frost when I'm just getting in to the mountains, but since they have 10 minutes they stay in the normal slots. Typically have an axe, sword and shield in 123. If not the axe then a bow.

[true steeple]

My hotbar right now is hammer, hoe, bow, weapon 1(axe), shield, weapon 2(mace), stamina/tasty mead, health mead

[hollow mantle]

1-5 for me are: bow, crossbow, axe/utility, sword, shield

and for meads I'm currently running: lingering stam, big hp, fire.

but I like a highly mobile ranged combat style

[subtle parrot]

I typically play melee heavy

[hollow mantle]

I'm probably going to do that when I start a solo run

[subtle bay]

Jesus fucking christ did I somehow miss that the Trollstav is hostile

Me: olol hey Troll, since you're knocking, want to meet your hellish brother?
Me: LOL it has a summoning animation that's so coo-.. Oooh wow, that's sick.
Troll: Dies
Me: Oohoo!! he just one hit the guy.. and was that like 900 damage to my stone wall?
Me: Notices red health bar when he looks at me.
Me: OOOOOH FUUUUU-!!!!

[jaunty kayak]

Wonderful

[radiant thorn]

Hello, I’m quite new to the game, I’m doing a little adventure with friends and we ask ourselves a question, we have unlocked the shadowy and want to grow linen to get again crafts. We know that this one must be planted in the plains but we were wondering if there is a system of loading chunks where we must be near the farm so that the resources grow properly or it is not necessary?

[subtle bay]

I'm unsure exactly what you've asked.

Farms will grow no matter where you are in the world.

[radiant thorn]

I meant, is there regions unloaded when u are not located close to them

So I could do my farm like middle map & go explore somewhere else & my farms will grow anyway ?

[subtle bay]

Farms will grow no matter where you are in the world.

[radiant thorn]

ty

[subtle bay]

💙

So I use Dead Raiser to make enemies in Ashlands become busy so I can run away, will the 'Stav give me the same, yet more destructive result?

[true steeple]

The trollstav is more effective at actually killing the enemies, while the skeletons will often die first

[jaunty kayak]

Update of chickens/hens please dont warn me

[subtle bay]

Of course. But will it grab their attention and allow my escape?

[subtle bay]

He jus’ chiggin’

[jaunty kayak]

Hens be like Heyy
Chigga be like wassup bro

[true steeple]

Yes, and because it’s spawned further away from you it can be easier to distract enemies with

[hollow mantle]

HAHA. That's brilliant.

[hollow mantle]

Main thing to be aware of is that like all enemies they will go for the target that is closest to them.

[jaunty kayak]

What do skeletts eat

[subtle parrot]

Nothing, they have no insides

[jaunty kayak]

He hungry tho

[subtle parrot]

They're always hungry, because they can't eat since they have no insides

[jaunty kayak]

They have no Stomach y even they hungry

[subtle parrot]

Lol idk, but they're just summons so they don't need to anyways

[thorn spire]

Skeletts are always hungry for the blood of your foes!

or maybe sausages.

[buoyant peak]

Same code/behaviour as normal tames

[echo ore]

ok, ive got a problem. i had a cart FULL of scrap iron in the swamp. it got stuck, and while i was trying to get it unstuck, i was attacked by an abomination. i took off running, kited the sucker, killed him, and went back to my cart.

but my cart is gone! no iron scraps on the ground, no bronze nails... its just gone

and i know im at the right spot--i even marked it on the map

is it a thing in this game for stuff to just disappear like that? is it a kjnown bug?

or do abominations like to eat carts full of iron scrap?

[mellow lodge]

how long did you leave it?

[echo ore]

how long did i leave my cart? actually about 10-15 minutes. i got killed 3 times before i killed the abomination and the swarms of dvagr's or whatever they're called

but carts don't disappear from inattendance

[mellow lodge]

i've never had something disappear like that, no. there's a scenario where if the cart got destroyed into materials, un-attended items would eventually despawn.

[echo ore]

oh, ok

ooooooff!!!

[mellow lodge]

i would honestly just look around more, and assume you didn't mark the right place. 15 minutes in game isn't long enough.

[echo ore]

i have, before i came here, ive been looking all over

im forlorn, depressed, exasperated, and infuriated

could the game REALLY have deleted all that scrap iron??!!!

that was all i did yesterday. that was a full day's work 😦

[mellow lodge]

yeah, i hear you. i just read a wiki talk page that says 2 hours for items not near a workbench. i don't know if a cart would despawn or not.

[echo ore]

no, ive got carts on other islands older than this one that are still around

bonemass. does bonemass eat things like that? cause he came to join the fray as well

[mellow lodge]

i had a boat that got smashed, and i didn't notice, and the pieces despawned.

you had bonemass running around? no, he doesn't eat things. sometimes creatures attack player objects however. that could have happened.

[echo ore]

yes. i tried to kill b onemass last night before i realized i really am going to need iron gear

this really can't be happening 😦

[mellow lodge]

yeah, that's a gut punch. this game can be unforgiving. it's no consolation really, but you really just lost time, you can find more iron. 😦

[echo ore]

i have to go track down another swamp

and spend another full day mining muddy scrap piles

[mellow lodge]

yeah, took me 4 or 5 swamps before i found one with a decent amount of iron in the crypts. first 3 swamps had 2 crypts i believe

[echo ore]

is there a devcode or something like that that will take me to existing carts? like a "gotonext("cart")" command or something?

[mellow lodge]

RNG giveth and taketh away

[mellow lodge]

that's a good question. I don't know the console commands stuff. some other people might

[echo ore]

im beginning the googling

[mellow lodge]

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

[echo ore]

yeah. i just found a find [object] [pingmax#] cmd

[hollow mantle]

Good luck, hope you find it.

[mellow lodge]

do you have to be near a sap extractor for it to suck sap? if I portal somewhere else does it stop?

hmm, reading reddit appears that you can let it go while you're away, and then just portal in and take the sap

[hollow mantle]

You do not have to be near it.

[mellow lodge]

I found a grouping of 3 roots. So I'm good with sap now with patience. Now it's all about soft tissue I guess

[hollow mantle]

Nice

[jaunty kayak]

What power for the queen

(i play duo mage/warrior)

[true steeple]

Increased eitr regeneration and damage for pickaxes (both their pierce and pickaxe damage is increased)

[jaunty kayak]

For thw fight i mean

[true steeple]

Do you mean you’re playing alone and use both or with a friend?

[jaunty kayak]

I play w my friend i play mage he plays warrior

[true steeple]

You can either use two bonemass so you have it for ten minutes, or have one bonemass and one eikthyr

[jaunty kayak]

Aight

[mellow lodge]

anyone know the danger zone around an eitr refinery? how big a radius should i have clear if I don't want to build black marble walls for now?

[true steeple]

The radius is very big, you could put it in a basement so you only need a marble/iron ceiling to protect your base

[mellow lodge]

ah, ok. hmm

i do have a basement. though i may need to dig deeper or modify. let me see

this thing is pretty big however. hmm.

[jaunty kayak]

I killed her w yagluth and bonemass in less than 5 mins 😭😭

[true steeple]

Time to go to ashlands!

[mellow lodge]

i think i may have to create a small as house for this refinery as i can with black marble. i can't get this into an exist basement, and i'm generally too close to sea level

[jaunty kayak]

Already been there

Have maxed galdr and blackforge

[true steeple]

Were you killing the queen a second time or just trying to skip her?

[jaunty kayak]

First time

[true steeple]

Why would you skip the queen?

[jaunty kayak]

Kinda funny isnt it

[true steeple]

No. You’ve been keeping her locked up with nothing to do

[jaunty kayak]

I forget about her and didnt have sealbraler

[true steeple]

Have you defeated Fader yet?

[jaunty kayak]

Nah dont have bell

[mellow lodge]

oh, duh. i have crap ton of stone. i can raise earth around it easier than spending all the black marble

what spot does the refined eiter come out of? the big glowy circle on the front-left? trying to figure out what I need to cover with black marble or iron cage

so far i have this

hmmm. it looks like it's going through the raised earth? lol

hrm, no. it's stopping it, but maybe some of the walls are too close, so it clips

[sudden galleon]

yup we all get that reaction the first time we use it

[lilac brook]

Can someone give a best farm for food? I dont wanna hunt every 2hours to survive im in iron age

[true steeple]

You can tame and farm boars by keeping them in a building or enclosure with berries, mushrooms or crops

[hollow mantle]

what are you asking?

[lilac brook]

Food Source for iron age

[true steeple]

You’ll need to find turnip seeds to get turnips. They’re used to craft a cauldron improvement that you’ll need to get the best food in swamp and every future biome

[hollow mantle]

Carrots and boars to start, then turnips

[true steeple]

After that use sausages, turnip stew and either black soup or muckshake as your food

[lilac brook]

Can i raplant them? Or i will need to searh new ones

[true steeple]

You can replant turnips

[lilac brook]

Tysm

[hollow mantle]

Do you have a carrot farm?

Oh, also Bees.

[hardy veldt]

do i need to make anything else to get ready for the queen besides mistwalker and carapace buckler?

[true steeple]

You could fight her with what you have now, but either Krom or Mistwalker + carapace shield/buckler would be better

You also need better healing mead

[hardy veldt]

how many do i need?

and what food should i bring

[compact heath]

misthare supreme and fish n bread if you have it (or whatever else best stamina food you got access to), and then a choice of either another health food or another stamina food, depends if you are more comfortable with 2 health 1 stam or 1 health 2 stam (meat platter is an option for health, salad an option for stamina, honey glazed chicken is another option for health)

[true steeple]

Fish n’ bread/mushroom omelette, salad and meat platter/honey glazed chicken/misthare supreme if you’re going to make that buckler or use Krom

If you make the carapace shield you should use 2 health foods instead

[hardy veldt]

honey glazed chicken misthare supreme salad

[true steeple]

What equipment are you using?

[hardy veldt]

fenris

full set

[true steeple]

Make sure you’re not taking any unblocked hits, or the fight is going to end very quickly

[hardy veldt]

got me nervous now im abt to run in with full carapace armor

[hardy veldt]

why is this sap so slow

[true steeple]

When a root has had too much sap taken, it will produce sap more slowly. You could move your extractors to another root

[hardy veldt]

dang i just placed theese and they already all dried up

[true steeple]

You can leave one extractor while it’s dry, but any extra won’t do anything

[mellow lodge]

if i break my galdr table, i will get the refined eiter back, right?

[true steeple]

If you or an enemy break anything except sharp stakes, you get all the materials back. (Why wouldn’t you?)

[mellow lodge]

just double checking. thanks.

i dunno, it just seems different 🙂

[hollow mantle]

You also don't get back the fuel in fires, etc, iirc.

[mellow lodge]

i have so little refined eitr at the moment, just being extra careful. i'm moments away from the feather cape

[true steeple]

Make sure you have some barley wine ready so you’re not waiting for it to ferment after you make the cape

[mellow lodge]

yeah, i'm already running around with fire resist ready, since i'm wearing root chest

[subtle bay]

This has to be false. Every time I find enemies in the Ashland’s having a scrap unless it’s with the Dvergr they all come at me instead.

[subtle bay]

I’ve experienced this too. The problem is there’s so much shit in the swamp that the items probably appeared inside something like a root or log and then clipped through the ground.

When I was full and dropped a stack of iron to fill my stamina back up, it went through a root and was gone. I broke logs, dug the ground, everything. Gone.

[echo ore]

thats what i think happened. the cart was stuck on a root and a log when i left it

[hollow mantle]

Aren't all the Ashlands mobs the same faction - Demons?

Just checked - they are all Demons. They shouldn't be fighting (though they can damage) each other.

So that's why they go after you unless they're fighting dverger - because you are the only target.

[echo ore]

i built a 2nd smelter, and now im done using it. i want to remove/destroy it, but i can't. the game won't let me. when i use the "remove" button, nothing happens

what gives?

oh. ok. just restarted my game, and now i'm good

[subtle bay]

I DON'T know.. I SWEAR I've seen them fight at times, the birds against skeletons and stuff.

I maaay have been mistaken that a Dvergr was somewhere in amongst the combat.

I DID use my preexisting world however, and may have some bugs, unsure.

[hollow mantle]

No worries. It’s also entirely possible the wiki is wrong. And I’ve not spent a lot of time in the Ashlands, so it’s possible it’s just not happened, but I’ve never seen them fight amongst themselves. Only with us and with dverger.

[subtle bay]

Oh my god.

I've spent waaaay too much time in the Ashlands... my ass is so sore..

You'd think it'd feel good at this point but no.. it doesn't.

[hollow mantle]

I’m waiting for my friends to start playing again.

Though I may just start a solo run.

[echo ore]

so, i jsut killed bonemass. i know i need to go to a new biome. but i don't know which one. without telling me which one i need to go to, how do i find out? is there a clue somewhere?

[frosty frost]

well, lets say you might consider going skiing 😉

[echo ore]

😦 well ok.

but how did YOU find out you needed to go to the mountains?

where's the clue? wheres the next puzzle piece?

[frosty frost]

i dont remember actually 🤔 my first playthrough was more than 3 years ago

i have a feeling the raven said something when you killed bonemass/got wishbone

[echo ore]

raven said that i got the wishbone which can be used to find silver and other treasure

[frosty frost]

you could also orient by the sacrifical stones 🙂 (at least for the mountains)

[echo ore]

is that the starting area?

[frosty frost]

yep

[echo ore]

so, yeah, i examined the next one

and it says "down from the mountains..." and so i'm assuming thats how people figured it out. i can't find anything else. certainly, it isn't quite obvious where to get silver. I mean... iron is found in mud piles

[frosty frost]

it could also be hinted that mountains are next since you unlock frost resist mead in swamps 🙂

[echo ore]

i don't remember unlocking that

[frosty frost]

look into cauldron 😉

[echo ore]

well, yeah. i see it there. but i don't remember actually unlocking it

[frosty frost]

tho i agree that its very easy to overlook hint

[frosty frost]

indeed it is

[sudden galleon]

well your in the valheim help chat 😅

[tribal wyvern]

and to think I've only just noticed that, after Eikthyr, the next three boss raids tell you exactly what biome to go to next

[sudden galleon]

what ya need ?

dont be shy we dont bite 🧛

[echo ore]

im just lol'ing over here!

[frosty frost]

most of us dont... 😛

[echo ore]

come to the "Valheim-help" channel to ask if its the place for valheim help

and then doesn't even need help!!l

lol!!

[sudden galleon]

well if you need just ask we only charge a couple of blood drop to signe ur contr..... to signe a paper and you good 🧛

🤭

[lime drum]

Any devcommands that allow construction in spawn zone, haldors, hildirs?

Oh god

What is even happening in here?

[frosty frost]

Helping is happening here 😄

[frail cave]

interesting-

[lime drum]

Bicurumba

[shut holly]

whoah. was not expecting to see that when i opened discord.

[ruby scaffold]

Has Valheim become a bit crashy lately? I've had three CTD in the last 4-5 hours of playing which is a bit worrying, but if it doesn't happen to others something might be up with my system.

[willow raft]

Haven't had any problems.

[ruby scaffold]

Thanks. I found a newer nvidia driver than the one I had installed, so trying that. And I'll twiddle a bit with graphical settings too

[scenic dock]

Can some one help me with this ?

[willow raft]

Takes 5 minutes for surtling to spawn again, if you have anything playerbase withing 20 meters of the spawner they won't spawn at all.
Best thing to do is find a few more spawners and make a surtling farm loop, go in one portal, watch the surtlings die to water, loot the coal and cores, step into 2nd portal to next spawner and make it a loop, begin and end portal in the base and end portal close to a chest to dump it all in.

[glossy dock]

hey quick question:
my friends and i are running a small server with player based raids.
The raids are working fine but we started wondering what happens with fulings and seekers just spawning after you kill later bosses.
Would less advanced players be affected by those since they might not be raid related?

[prisma fjord]

Hi all.
Can you tell me what the purple square in the left corner of the screen appears in the game?

[frosty frost]

purple square? can you send a screenshot?

[prisma fjord]

Yes! 1 min.

Here

[willow raft]

If a boss is killed, night spawns happen, means certain mobs will start spawning in other biomes than their original but only at night and they will disappear come morning.
New players can run into them, so not going out at night might be a good idea.
Though I do wonder if they would spawn for everyone or only for the person that unlocked it but that the other players might run into them.
As far as I know night spawns happen for everyone but I might be wrong.

[frosty frost]

Hmm, never saw that before, maybe try to restart the game if that doesent work validate files or reinstal the game.

[scenic dock]

what the hell is this !

[prisma fjord]

Okay, I'll do it right now. Thank you.

[frosty frost]

A dream text?

[scenic dock]

duh read it

[frosty frost]

i did 🙂 whats the problem with it?

[scenic dock]

idont know maybe the part when there is a naked child ? in my dream lol

[thorn spire]

your char has some vivid dreams.

[hollow mantle]

I believe this has been mentioned before and it turned out to be being caused by a mod. But I may be misremembering.

[frosty frost]

you didnt get to ashlands runestones yet did you 😄

[thorn spire]

I havent yet either

[hollow mantle]

Me neither

[scenic dock]

yeah im still in the mountin is it somthing in the runes ?

[frosty frost]

yep, they will give you a bit more info about who/what the child is 🙂

[prisma fjord]

The thing is that I play without mods, but thanks.

[hollow mantle]

Like I said, I may be misremembering. But I am sure it has come up before. So try a search.

[scenic dock]

more info about a naked child LOL no thanks pass

thx btw

[prisma fjord]

I'll take it into account, thank you.😀

[frosty frost]

#valheim-help message there, someone with the same problem 🙂

[true steeple]

We don't know if it's the same child or not

[prisma fjord]

It seems to have disappeared, I checked the integrity of the files. Thank you, you are the best.

[frosty frost]

Considering that the way the child appears is pretty much identical in both the dream and the runestone i would say its incredibly likely 🙂

[hollow mantle]

@frosty frost deserves more thanks than me.

[mellow lodge]

lol mushroom omelette has no mushrooms? that confused me a sec

[frosty frost]

it has tho

jotun puffs are mushrooms

[mellow lodge]

3 eggs, 3 jotun puffs... ohhh

lol i'm dumb.

for some reason i thought: magecap are mushrooms, puffs are something else

[frosty frost]

nah, just bit confused XD

both are mushrooms 🙂

[mellow lodge]

i need to grow more puffs. all the best stuff uses them right now for me. i have such a tiny field at the moment

[frosty frost]

fortunately mistlands shrooms are probably the easiest thing to farm in the game 🙂

[willow raft]

Yeah 3 per grown shroom and no steps in between.

[mellow lodge]

yeah, it's basically a a step up from barley/flax

i'm leery of making a real mistlands base yet however. i don't want raids there. but i have a tiny plot with stakes in a relatively safe-ish area, not enough objects for a base

stakes keep the hares out, and provide some passive food from them lol

[tribal wyvern]

personally I'd just do stakewalls, a portal, and a chest

[mellow lodge]

yeah, i just haven't found a nice location yet. basically JUST found flatland at all in the mistlands yesterday. i'm currently setup in a rib cage near a couple roots, with a small plot near me. just a portal and workbench atm.

[willow raft]

I found a very small island one workbench was enough to spawn proof it, put a hut and a portal there.
It can grow around 200 shrooms.

[mellow lodge]

oh man! jealous

[willow raft]

It's glorious!

[mellow lodge]

my best spot at the moment is a completely spawn proofed island with the Yagluth altar. will build a cool base there, and for now, it's stress free barley farm.

[shadow igloo]

can i find where is weapons' model files? i want to change em but idk where do they locate

[true steeple]

Did you manage to keep the stone fingers safe from Yagluth?

[true steeple]

#mods-discussion might get better answers?

[shadow igloo]

oh ok

[lusty quiver]

uhm how do i unstuck this place]

[stark kettle]

Hello

first time playing

what I do?

[thorn spire]

get close. it'll come back down to new ground level.

[thorn spire]

talk to the raven. he'll help you.

[stark kettle]

Who is raven?

[thorn spire]

it's an actual raven that'll pop up when you go in game.

his name is Hugin.

[mellow lodge]

3 small chips in one finger. Not perfect but ok.

[subtle parrot]

Indeed, speak to Hugin, he'll tell you what to do, but generally just gather anything you find on the ground

[mellow lodge]

As a hoarder in video games, that has served me well in Valheim: SAVE EVERYTHING lol. I'm looking at you, 35 stacks of bone fragments

[hollow mantle]

Right! My friends were like "lets obliterate everything" and I was like "How about we only obliterate gear that we accidentally made, or which got duped for now, and we can do other stuff if we're ever desperate for coal..."

I am so glad they listened to me.

[craggy forge]

it bit us in the ass once we reached mistlands, we threw away all of the chains we looted from crypts lmao

[true steeple]

What do you need chains for in mistlands?

[hollow mantle]

dverger lanterns?

(well, not for the lanterns themselves, but to use them in the build pieces)

[mellow lodge]

yeah, i basically only obliterate stuff i generate too much of. like leather scraps, wolf hide, etc. stuff that i already have a chest full of from farms

i'm trying to find some details on summoned skellies. I assume they can't go with you into dungeon entrances, or through portals. They go away when they die. What happens if I go into a dungeon, summon skellies, and leave and come back? are they still there?

[hollow mantle]

I believe it depends on if they leave the active region or not. And, they don't disappear immediately.

[loud linden]

There's a significant period where coal is super valuable. 'Burning' boar, neck, and deer meat that you're not using to bolster your coal stores is significantly more efficient than obliterating them. (I know you didn't mention that specifically, but it's a great tip to share).

[mellow lodge]

what if I portal away, do something, maybe sleep, portal back?

[hollow mantle]

Yeah, we had a tree farm and enough mats for all the kilns we needed at that point. In fact I believe we still have spare kilns and smelters dotted about the world.

[loud linden]

This sounds like a hypothesis worth testing!

[hollow mantle]

Not sure. I've not used magic much, but I know when my friend, who does use magic, summoned some and then portal'd away, they hung around for a little while, like maybe a minute, before despawning. So, I expect they will have despawned in that time, even if like you had a portal right next to you bed, and you didn't need to light a fire, etc.

[mellow lodge]

yeah, sorry. i'll be patient and test when i manage to find some more soft tissue and build the staff. still a ways away

[hollow mantle]

And it's possible they only despawned because I was still there. So that region was still active.

[mellow lodge]

hmmm. interesting. i'm excited to play with a whole new aspect of the game.

[hollow mantle]

Yeah, I'm thinking when I do a solo run I'll start melee and then switch to magic when I get to Mistlands, because I've only played ranged (with melee backup), and only lightly dabbled in magic (using a spare trollstav to break stone/ore).

[loud linden]

Wai..wai..wai..wai..wai..wait. So, you're suggesting that if you WEREN'T there, they wouldn't have despawned?

[mellow lodge]

yeah, my play style has generally been melee, with ranged to pull or opportunistic if enemies can't get to me. but i don't do the style that i see some people do: run around shooting enemies who are chasing me 🙂

[true steeple]

I like magic now but the first time I tried it (second playthrough) I died to a boss for the fist time so I avoided it for a while after

[hollow mantle]

That is entirely possible - non-active regions don't update - but I don't know what, beyond players being there, makes a region active/non-active.

[hollow mantle]

I am very much a 'shoot from distance and plan to take them down before they get to me' style of ranged player, but I also like to conserve the better arrows and bolts, so end up sometimes having to run around a bit. 😛

[mellow lodge]

lol. yeah, i shoot once or twice, and then equip my melee to finish

[misty minnow]

Good afternoon everyone, I'm having a bug with the game in which I try to create the server to play with my friends and when I enter the password it crashes, I use my notebook and the game pass application, I play via the cloud

if anyone can help to solve this problem

[timid crane]

Can I make a raspberry farm?

[true steeple]

No, you can't farm raspberries.

[timid crane]

🥺

[shut holly]

bone bolts make those go away pretty quick

[sudden galleon]

you can pin the rasberry on your map to find them easier later

[craggy forge]

to build lanterns

[haughty relic]

I'm having an issue where valheim and my dedicated server keep crashing my pc randomly, black screen and everything is unresposive but can still talk in discord and hear spotify running

[mellow lodge]

That's what I'm using right now actually yep!

[sudden galleon]

how many ram you have ?

[haughty relic]

32GB

[sudden galleon]

should be good there ... are you using mod ?

[haughty relic]

no mods

[sudden galleon]

did it crash at lunch or random when you playing ?

nvm you said it was random

🤔

[haughty relic]

random, it crashes a lot when trying to join server, but then sometimes I can play for like an hour no issue and then it crashes

[sudden galleon]

is your dedicated server is on the same pc ?

[haughty relic]

It is

[sudden galleon]

hmm maybe try in the # dedicated server to see if its a current problem .. i never try to run both at the same time

[hearty tartan]

Is it faster to become rested by sitting

[true steeple]

No, you only need to sit if you’re not sheltered

[hearty tartan]

Thanks 🙏

[median moon]

Hellooo yall, anyone encountering an issue where the version number for their game has a 1- preceeding the version number? It prevents multiplayer connection too

[sudden galleon]

where you get the game ?

[median moon]

Steam

[oak mirage]

try updating it/checking for updates

can aslo try verfying files

[median moon]

I did, did a complete reinstall

I’ll try verifying files

[median moon]

Verified, still finding a 1-

[sudden galleon]

do you dl the ptb or the live vertion ?

[median moon]

What does that mean? I just got it from steam

[sudden galleon]

ptb mean the public test beta, but since you just get it you probably get the live vertion

🤔

whats the vertion you got ?

[median moon]

1-0.218.19

[vernal summit]

hey, my game becomes unresponsive whenever I try to open any of my worlds, I've tried reinstalling, verifying the integrity of my game files, and updating my graphics driver, but nothing seems to change it

[sudden galleon]

is it the first time since ashland update ?

[lilac coyote]

Just be patient, don't move the mouse or tab out.

[vernal summit]

yeah

[lilac coyote]

The world is being rebuilt. Should only happen once.

[sudden galleon]

like derek say let it go

[vernal summit]

ah, ok, thanks! I got my brother to buy the game when it was on sale a while ago, and I was kinda worried when we couldn't get it to work lol

[sudden galleon]

if the non responding window pup up click on wait

[vernal summit]

aight, I'll try that, thanks a ton!

honestly, part of me didn't expect that to work lol

[glad marsh]

does Grausten protect vs the eitr refineery as well? or only black marble?

[sudden galleon]

that particular problem is asked alot in this chanel , im about to open a notepad and just copy past the anser 😂

[vivid timber]

Why isnt the Dundr's Eitr usage reduced?

[true steeple]

I think it reloads faster

[echo ore]

am i doing something wrong causing the edge and "corners" to be diagonal instead of perpendicular?

[spark shell]

u can shave off a bit more, for the sharp edge

[echo ore]

i tried that and it didn't quite work. it seems can only take of a minimum of 1 meter's worth if i'm careful. can't do a 0.5 m

[spark shell]

don't aim for the actual stone, aim a bit more to the right (a few pixels or so right from the right red line)

[echo ore]

thats what i did

[spark shell]

it should work hmm

the slope there is the sign that there's extra rock in that direction

[echo ore]

hmmm. what does extra rock mean? like something buried in the ground?

[spark shell]

just the terrain i mean

u see how the right one goes straight down but the terrain in question is kinda sloped

[echo ore]

yep

[spark shell]

u gotta shave a bit more off, it should work out then 🤔 i dunno why it's not working for u

[willow raft]

Sometimes it is a very fine line you need to chip away to get a straight line.

[echo ore]

can you though? you guys are making it seem that i can shave away tiny pieces. but the walls come off in 1m increments if you're careful, 2m usually

if i shave that down, it just moves the diagonal edge laterally

[spark shell]

do u need that space to be that thin btw? or are you gonna widen it?

[echo ore]

i do want to keep it narrow

its going to lead to a wider space, but the passage is narrow

[spark shell]

if you're gonna widen it atleast 2m on the ground, it would make things easier since then you just aim for the ground and it would shave off that extra terrain. With 1m, it's a bit harder to do without messing up surrounding terrain.

otherwise, u gotta aim around here while facing the direction of the green arrow. Not much else that would help I think.

[echo ore]

so i filled it back in and leveled it off at the top to show you.
the diagonal just exists along that wall for some reason.

[spark shell]

oh u can't fix that part

[echo ore]

when i start to chisel it down, it just creates a new one

[spark shell]

Basically, the game will try to keep straight lines in terrain along the N-S, W-E, NW-SE directions

[echo ore]

huh. ok

[spark shell]

dunno why not NE-SW 🤷

but yeah, the NW-SE ones would end up like that I think

[echo ore]

that is weird!

is that an oversight i wonder?

[spark shell]

not sure, but it's been so since forever I think

[echo ore]

i wish there was a way to carve out just 1 meter sections instead of always 2 m

[spark shell]

Best advice I can offer is to just dig a 2m (or 3m if you are a symmetry freak like me) and section off 1m area using wood walls etc to cover up the extra space to still give it the narrow 1m look.

My second iteration of the main house had a basement, but I built the house before digging basement coz newb. I tried to play around with terrain but gave up since fixing the mess was too much work. Instead I covered up the basement with wood walls. By the end I ended really loving that aesthetic with the dim lighting and all. A wooden store room of sorts. Dunno if that fits with your aesthetic but you can give that a try.

[echo ore]

definitely will try it. what i'm trying to do is make a "secret passage"

that will be covered up with a banner

so i don't want to leave anything "unique" to the area that would give something away

[spark shell]

ah

i see

[hollow mantle]

I believe the diagonal thing is due to the terrain being made from triangles (basically everything in computer graphics gets divided down into triangles, so for stuff like terrain it’s simplest to divide it up into a grid and then bisect each cell along the same diagonal).

[spark shell]

that explains it xd

[vivid timber]

Just tried, no it doesn't

[jovial ledge]

which station do I need to repair a maypole?

[mellow lodge]

A maypole you found in the wild? I don't think you can repair that.

[true steeple]

If a workbench doesn't work, nothing will, because that's where it's crafted during midsummer

[jovial ledge]

yeah, in the wild. It's very damaged

[true steeple]

You'll have to keep it very safe until next year

[late hawk]

i would encase it completely in stone

[mellow lodge]

so if i just go back to an infested mine, 4 hours later, the royal jelly containers will be back, and some of the seekers will have respawned?

[hollow mantle]

Dunno if it's 4 hours, but, yes, infested mines respawn, and I believe yes both those things (but I could be wrong).

[subtle parrot]

Seems accurate

[loud linden]

Anecdotally, I've not seen monster respawns in Infested Mines; only the royal jelly.

[mellow lodge]

i can't decide if that's better or not. i guess it makes it easier to run in and grab jelly, but seeker meat is nice to get

[loud linden]

Royal Jelly gets old real quick. Revisiting mines for it is really unnecessary.

[mellow lodge]

at the phase i'm in, it's still a valuble ingredient

[loud linden]

Sure, but don't revisit mines when you can find new ones with Cores, Seeker meat, and other fun stuff.

[late hawk]

you should get enough of it from mines, no need to revisit them

[mellow lodge]

i have a mine really close to a farm, but yes, finding more mines would be better

[pallid tulip]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF8ZE64dZ-w

[loud linden]

You know what my favourite letters are in the alphabet? G, T, F, and O.

[mellow lodge]

speaking of finding a new mine... and lol, i need to consider making demolisher. sure iron sledge helped me out against 3 seekers and 1star seeker, but demolisher would have been better

[hollow bobcat]

Do anyone know how I could fill this gap

[frosty frost]

I don't think you can 🤔 never looked into it much tho since i quite like the look and Its realistic

[hollow bobcat]

Rain doesn’t get in?

[frosty frost]

Nope

[hollow bobcat]

Ok that’s all I was worried about

[shadow badge]

i wanted to put my boar farm near my lox farm, heard that boar´s would scare the lox and they might destroy there breeder. does some1 know how far away my boar breeder from the lox one needs to be so they dont aggro each other?

[late hawk]

tamed animals shouldn't aggro each other, since then they are all in one faction, the "player" faction

[shadow badge]

oh i see, so they talked about wild animals? thx!

[echo ore]

i would try using two 45 deg wood walls in there

nope. doesn't work

you could try using a wood wall 1x1. its not perfect, but...

[loud linden]

You don't. There's no build piece for it. It's an insignificant gap.

[echo ore]

and here... you CAN use two 45 deg wood wall pieces:

[hollow bobcat]

I lowkey just like it unfilled now that I know it doesn’t let rain in

[echo ore]

cool cool

[subtle bay]

Err..

My Catapult killed me, what the fuck? :f

[lilac coyote]

Ah, got caught on the legs, huh?

[subtle bay]

.. you're kidding me, it has spikes on all four of its corners.

[lilac coyote]

Yup.

It uses them to anchor itself in the ground before firing.

[subtle bay]

I think this is peak 'Valheim Moment'

Ah of course..

Now I'm really confused, I was running and a Valkyrie instant killed me when I had 160 HP

It didn't even look like it was targeting me, it was attacking someone else.

Is there a combat log?

[sudden galleon]

you need to be carefull of that spining attack it hurt

[hollow mantle]

Yeah, AOE spin attack can take you by surprise.

But also, do you get lag?

[tiny violet]

The Valkyrie’s flame is very hot too, if you somehow manage to have two of them hitting you at the same time, and if you’re wearing the ||feather cape|| then you can take massive fire damage instantly.
Alternatively, I have also insta-died and then later realized I was on a terrain tile that was considered lava but did not look like lava

[true steeple]

If you have barley wine it will override the weakness, so you’ll be resistant to the fire damage while wearing the best cape in the game

[tiny violet]

Yeah you’re right, I accidentally left out a part of my reply- and if my fire resist mead has run out without my knowing. I always keep the barley wine on me in the Ashlands it is so cheap for 10 full mins of heavy resist. But because it’s timer is different than the lingering mead timers I use and also diff than the bonemass cooldown timer, sometimes my barley wine will expire and it can take a minute to realize

[subtle bay]

I might have had that cape on by mistake when putting my gear back on, I carry both.

I was about 20+ meters away

[tiny violet]

I always keep that cape on me but also the fire resist to counter it

Tough to tell. The hidden lava gets me too sometimes

[subtle bay]

It might've been a hidden lava spot actually yes

[ruby zinc]

"The floor is lava." "Which floor?" "We're not telling."

[subtle bay]

Because the Valkyrie was not close that's for sure, at least 10 wall lengths and was targeting my friend. 150+ damage too seems weird

[tiny violet]

||I fought Fader the other night. Talk about the floor is lava||

[subtle bay]

Lava REALLY hurts so yeah I bet it was a hidden spot maybe

I need to not click spoilers

.. did the guitar shred?

[true steeple]

For 2-star charred warriors that I can’t block or parry, I find that jumping over their attacks and hitting them on the way down is the most effective and safe way of fighting them with melee weapons, so I always have the feather cape on in ashlands so I can jump high enough

It works well for other enemies but charred warriors are definitely where it’s best. Because their attacks are hard to roll through or walk from, the only other way I can dodge them consistently is to roll backwards and then I can’t attack them

[tiny violet]

Yeah I use it for jump-casting staffs. So for melee and staffs both it is really good

[true steeple]

Jump attacking everywhere is the correct way to play valheim

[ruby zinc]

Bunnyheim?

[subtle bay]

Vaultheim

[oak mirage]

dw its out of context. not really a spoiler unless u get unlucky with his spawn location 😭

[true steeple]

||I think the message is about how many of Fader’s attacks leave fire on the ground. Fader’s spawn locations creates an area of land around it if it would generate in lava.||

[echo ore]

whats the point of 1.5x resource? it seems like i'm getting 2x resource

[frosty frost]

it rounds up for stuff you get only 1 item from on normal, so from berry bushes you get 2 for example but if the little beach would normaly give you 2 wood then now it will give you 3

[echo ore]

ah, ok

[worldly scarab]

@hollow bobcat I'm late on this conversation, but what happens, if you put a crystal piece in the center? I mean I know it would still let a little air through, but a small place needs airflow for lights right?

[subtle bay]

Oh fuck me. See I thought he meant that he makes even more of the stuff. My location has quite a bit of room.

It’s a good idea to bring a lot of stone and some benches and to make some walls here and there for pillaring. Or just box the spawn if you want to be a dick. Olol

[frosty frost]

you dont need any stone, dont worry 🙂

[topaz axle]

I have been struggling quite badly to break into the mistlands. I have been considering using root harnesk/serpent scale shield for the pierce resistance. I have read from several sources that resistances don't stack but the wiki page for the shield says it does stack. Does anyone know if this is true? Is it worth it to bring both?

[true steeple]

The serpent scale shield's resistance does stack because it's applied in blocking calculations instead of damage reduction like the other resistances.

You don't need either in mistlands though, if you have padded armor and a black metal shield/tower shield or a 2h weapon you'll be able to block all attacks well, which can be better than only being able to take the pierce attacks.

[topaz axle]

Would you recommend bringing it, or just root harnesk and a party shield? Seekers seem pretty easy to parry but they don't stagger long

I have fully upgraded padded and black metal sword and shield

I usually eat lox meat pie, bread and fish wraps as food

[true steeple]

What weapon did you make with silver? The frostner will do a little more damage per hit than your sword but will have significantly less stagger, and depending on your playstyle that could be better than your sword.

It's not worth making if you don't already have one. Just focus on crafting a mistlands weapon if you haven't made the frostner.

[topaz axle]

I have a fully upgraded frostner

[true steeple]

You might want to use that then, if you're not using your weapon to stagger enemies

[topaz axle]

I just hate it's knockback

[true steeple]

I don't mind the high knockback, but the damage difference to your sword is very small so you can keep using that if you'd prefer to have low knockback.

[topaz axle]

I have managed to clear out one dungeon with no issues. I guess it is more the terrain and visibility I am struggling with

I have started being able to identify what is around me by sound, but still very rough place

[true steeple]

Make a feather cape when you can, it boosts your jump height by 20%, reduces the jump stamina and limits your fall speed. It makes you weak to fire but barley wine overrides that so you'll be resistant to fire. I think it's the best cape in the game for exploration and combat

For visibility, you could start making paths of wisp torches where you explore

[topaz axle]

I can't make those

[true steeple]

Chop trees in mistlands for a new type of wood that you can use for wisp torches and an important tool for progressing

[topaz axle]

Oh I guess I can make those, just missed them before

Yes my first foray was to get that wood to make a pickaxe

[topaz axle]

@true steepleThank you for the wisp torch advice. I have managed to push in a little bit, light up some ancient metal and a root, and even killed my first Gjall! The torches make things easier.

[languid hound]

Hi all, just need some clarification, if a mod mentions this in description 'Can be installed on a server, to enforce the configuration.' does that mean the mod will work for all clients connected to the server regardless if client has mod or not?

[glad marsh]

is grausten immune to the eitr refinery as well? or is it only black marble?

[true steeple]

#mods-discussion

[true steeple]

No, grausten is resistant (not immune) to lightning damage.

[glad marsh]

so black marble is the only building material that wont take damage from it

[true steeple]

Iron cage works too

[glad marsh]

k cool thx

[manic gyro]

So do dvergr metal walls. I think that's all of them, but you could check the wiki to be sure

[topaz sorrel]

if i made my world before mistland and ashlands can i just explore unloaded parts for mistlands? or do i gotta make a new world?

[true steeple]

New content will generate in unexplored areas

[topaz sorrel]

thanks🙏

[safe bison]

Just wondering if my base should be next to the shore? I know farming is a thing and if this game is anything like minecraft where crops need to be near water?

[subtle parrot]

They do not need to be near water, however being near the water allows you to have a dock and ease of access to the oceans to travel to new islands. Which generally, is inevitable

[safe bison]

i see, thanks man

[ivory egret]

Hello, i was wondering if there's a way of me picking up the stone cutter and moving it without actually destroying it?

[mellow lodge]

No. But you don't lose anything

[ivory egret]

okay ty

[ivory egret]

So i just destroy it normally?

[frosty frost]

yep, as most of other structures, just press MMB (middle mouse button/wheel)

[thin raft]

if you burn core wood to coal do you get more coal than with normal wood or it doesnt matter?

[sudden galleon]

nope you got the same

[thin raft]

okay thank you mate

[final whale]

Does anyone else stutter when at base? I git a good gaming laptop i7 processor and 16gigs ram and rtx 4080.

[true steeple]

Bases are usually laggy because of how many objects are all loaded at the same time.

[proven breach]

does valheim have dedicated server??

[subtle parrot]

Not public servers, no

Individuals can have their own dedicated servers

[proven breach]

yeah like me and my friends are tired of waiting for eachother to play on the same world.. is there a way for us to not wait on one another

[subtle parrot]

There's a steam server tool, not sure how exactly that works, but there are services who provide servers, like gportal for example, there are others I just don't know them. For better answers about the steam tool, you might ask in #dedicated-server for help with that or other service providers.

[proven breach]

we can rent servers right ?

[subtle parrot]

Yes from providers like gportal

[proven breach]

ok great thanks

[true steeple]

You can rent or host your own dedicated server

[jovial ledge]

do mushrooms respawn at the same spot the way berries do?

[lilac coyote]

Yep.

Indeed any pickable.

[timid trail]

Hi, All! i want to delete 2 worlds i made. I have A LOT of materials in thise worlds, is it possible to give it away to other players, jut to ease the grind away!? Also, what would be the best way to do that? Thanks!!!

[hollow mantle]

Invite people into your world. They could then fill their inventory. Then log out. When they join their own world they would still have everything in their inventory.

[safe bison]

How do i trash items?

[true steeple]

Throw them far from your base so they eventually despawn, or make an obliterator.

[safe bison]

gotcha

[ruby scaffold]

Is there any jerky type food (balanced) in Ashlands? Still grumpy that neither Plains nor Mistlands had one...

[mellow lodge]

yeah, where's our lox jerky? 🙂

[ruby scaffold]

I take that as a no?

[peak pulsar]

heres all the ashlands foods and their ingredients

there isnt a jerky

[ruby scaffold]

So devs just abandoned the concept of balanced food after the wolf jerky? Sad, I actually like the tradeoff between top stats vs longer duration.

[lilac coyote]

Well, it makes a lot less sense once you start having to eat Eitr food as well. You can balance your stats quite well using all 3 foods.

[ruby scaffold]

I don't do magic though 😄

[peak pulsar]

i guess in their minds we would eat different foods balancing our health and stamina based on how much we need, i do agree that having a food with 50/50 would be nice though

[lilac coyote]

We can, just get a high HP food and a high STA food and bam, you're balanced.

[ruby scaffold]

This latest playthrough I've actually come to appreciate using one health, one stam and one jerky, using the longest duration H and S ones, means I don't need to refresh so often and I usually have enough of both

[peak pulsar]

we need a food that gives mediocre buffs that lasts for like an hour

[ruby scaffold]

Two H - sometimes short of stamina, two S - often too damn squishy

[lilac coyote]

No we don't. Food that lasts for 2 entire days makes no sense.

[peak pulsar]

more like 3

[ruby scaffold]

That's what I liked about the Jerky though - lower total stats but longer duration. On average it balance out and I can do long runs without needing to bring six stacks of food

[mellow lodge]

it's just variety. maybe they thought too many food choices at one level is too much complexity. 🤷

who knows

[ruby scaffold]

Yeah, I'm still sad. Going forward it'll be HHS all ze way. To heck with magic!

[lilac coyote]

An hour would be 2 days.

[ruby scaffold]

Yeah the full day cycle is 30 minutes total right

Although I swear when you are in the swamp low on foods and the rested buff dropped off, night lasts like 30 minutes anyway. Some kind of magic time warp there

[lilac coyote]

It just seems that way when it's so dark and miserable.

[ruby scaffold]

Hell yeah, funny how that works

[naive inlet]

Is the best way to level attacks, by fighting using low level weapons so you hit more, or does damage matter?

[lilac coyote]

Just hits, so you've got the right idea.

[naive inlet]

is there like a wooden sword or something like a training weapon?

[lilac coyote]

Not really no.

[true steeple]

A bronze sword should work well enough

It’s best to gain skills through normal gameplay, you never need to stop what you’re doing to grind skills.

[sullen hollow]

hi is there anyone that have tried to change skin color by mods after the ashlands update i have a character that i created when i first started but i want to keep him and change a bit

[frosty frost]

Probably best to ask in #mods-issues or #mods-discussion 🙂

[sullen hollow]

oh sorry ı taught this is the place

[frosty frost]

No worries, Its just that people there are more familiar with mods 🙂 this channel Is mostly for vanilla

[real relic]

I've got a dilemma
Been playing exclusively mapless forever, just shy of 200 hours in the game, and I've hit the mistlands
I've been in the mistlands for about 15 hours now and I haven't seen my gear in about 7
Is it time to turn the map on?
If I could ONLY see the mistlands on the map I'd be fine with it but I know I'll see the entire map and everywhere I've been and I was saving the reveal for when me and my buddy beat the game.
I feel like we could do Ashlands mapless it's just Mistlands SUCKS mapless (not a complaint about the game development, it definitely should suck mapless)

[true steeple]

If you do get your gear back, try making wisp torch trails wherever you explore. I do this even with a map so so I can see where I’m going

[ebon lance]

This has got to be the weirdest yet most interesting map I have ever gotten, also I dont undestand why but it spawned 3 boss summoner stone of eyktheir right next to eachother, 2 of which are litterally 30 meters apart

[real relic]

I started doing that with the yggdrasil I'd stocked up but it just isn't enough mapless

[ebon lance]

I am guessing its because somehow with all the weird terrain it basically linked togheter 2 islands, although that is my best guess

[true steeple]

There are always 3 eikthyrs, and I’ve found 2 close together before too

[ebon lance]

Ohh really, In all my other games I found the one and never really found other boss summoners unless it was a completely different island. Didn't know more then 1 spawned

[lilac coyote]

Every boss has more than one altar.

[ebon lance]

I find it very odd they spawn so stupdily close to one another though

[true steeple]

The world generation doesn’t recognise individual islands for anything.

[lilac coyote]

It's so you can actually find them. It's the tutorial boss after all.

[true steeple]

It’s all random, they’d usually be separated more

[ebon lance]

I know that, but when you spawn into the world the bird litterally tells to you click the red stone and it instantly reveals the eyktheir location

[true steeple]

It reveals the closest, like all vegvisirs

[ebon lance]

alright, just random chance then. Got it

[lilac coyote]

The entire game is based on RNG, yeah.

[frosty frost]

Iirc Its 3 Eik, 4 Elder, 5 Bonemass, 3 Moder, 4 Yag, 5 Queen and don't remember Fader, maybe 4?

[lilac coyote]

5. They broke the pattern and I hate it.

[true steeple]

Ashlands are way too small to need 5 boss locations

[frosty frost]

XD thought the same thing

[lilac coyote]

Well, exactly.

[frosty frost]

I atleast hope that when ashlands has 5 then DN will also have 5

[lilac coyote]

I wouldn't count on anything at this point.

[echo ore]

Why are hearths so dang big!? It is hard to design a simple home/ cabin with these things

[frosty frost]

they are really not that big

[echo ore]

Oh. I guess it doesn't really matter anyway. I can't put it where I want it-- in the middle of the house-- because it sits on a wood floor that is covering a basement

[mellow lodge]

I put a stone pillar in my basement for that to support it. You don't need much

Doesn't need to be centered at all either.

[echo ore]

Cool! I have a core wood "pillar" down there supporting right in the middle. I'm assuming that that's still not strong enough?

[mellow lodge]

I believe it has to be either stone, or raised earth.

[vagrant bobcat]

some worlds can have 4, but yea.. i keep seeing mostly 5 in random seed generator

[lilac coyote]

No, the game will always generate 5.

It's JUST about possible that a combination of world gen restrictions it can't place all 5, but it'll certainly try.

[crude pier]

hey, does anyone know how to fix frame stutters? me and my friend are getting them. ive noticed them ever since entering the mistlands, about every couple of seconds (3-10, they can be big for half a secondor small for a small fraction of a second)
my specs are enough to pump out 100+ fps in high and i dont know why im getting them, its really annoying and has gotten me killed many times.

[vagrant bobcat]

yea thats what i meant

[wanton timber]

Anyone struggling to connect to their server right now?

[tidal nebula]

Helloooo, anyway that me and a friend can both be on debugmode?

[lilac coyote]

Depends on your provider, I'd imagine.

[tidal nebula]

Do i need to install a mod or something?

[vivid timber]

No only the server hoster

[lilac coyote]

Yeah, you'll need to use Server Devcommands #mods-discussion can help you with that.

[tidal nebula]

Thanks im gonna try it

[hollow mantle]

What frame rates are you seeing during these moments?

[tidal nebula]

Thanks, im gonna try a mod anyways

[crude pier]

my game runs at 100 fps usually, but my screen just freezes for a little when i get the spike. i only get this with valheim, not any other game

i did get a new monitor, could it be some issue with freesyc or smth?

[hollow mantle]

What frame rates are you seeing whilst it stutters?

[crude pier]

wym its 0 fps for like a fraction of a second

like no frames are being generated

[hollow mantle]

you have a framerate readout on screen and it goes to 0?

[crude pier]

i have the fps counter but i dont think it changes

i can check rn

[hollow mantle]

Ok, that's what I needed to know. Have you had it happen when you are alone? And do you get mobs teleporting around?

[crude pier]

my friend said he seems to get it around me, i get it alone too yeah

[hollow mantle]

It sounds like your connection to the server is lagging.

[crude pier]

nah mobs dont teleport, i have been noticing a little ping issues too

yeah

like my friends fireballs explode late, or the damage i deal is registered late

but thats pretty uncommon

[hollow mantle]

Yeah, that sounds like connection issues. Are you using a hosted server?

[shadow badge]

my breeder is working rn they are happy and eating, but sometimes when i come back from whatever and check again 2-3 hours later .. they wont eat anymore 😦 they are to close to each other? or what is the problem here? 😦

[crude pier]

i host a server for my friend and i

i just press that little "start server button" which my friend joins from

[hollow mantle]

Ok, what kind of internet connection do you have?

And are you on wifi or wired?

[crude pier]

i have a wifi extender which i connect to my pc with ehternet cable

so its kinda both.. my internet is fine in literally ever other game i play, never get ping issues other than from valheim

[hollow mantle]

Yeah, Valheim stresses things in ways other games don't.

[crude pier]

any fixes?

i do have hdr on

[hollow mantle]

If you can, uses a fully wired connection. And if your friend has better internet speeds than you, try having them host.

[crude pier]

i cant get a fully wired connection, im too far from my modem

[hollow mantle]

There's probably networking settings you can tweak, but that stuff is beyond me.

[crude pier]

how can i transfer the world files to my friend?

[hollow mantle]

There's like a couple of files, iirc, which you can just upload to a cloud storage solution and have them download them and put in the right place.

If you ask again when Smiffe is around, they might be able to help.

[lilac coyote]

You just need the fwl and db files for the world.

[halcyon crag]

typically found in C:/users/user/appdata/locallow/irongate/valheim/worlds or worldslocal

[sour sapphire]

Is there any mod to remap the controller? I tried steam overlay but it wont breakup the default binding in valheim.

[mellow lodge]

does sleeping pass time for sap extraction?

looks like yes

[oak mirage]

interesting. guess i ll collect sap before sleeping

[gusty venture]

how do i get publioc test

[frosty frost]

You can look at pinned message from Munin in #valheim-public-test 🙂

[hollow mantle]

First make sure you have the ‘I want to be a public tester’ role selected in ‘Channels & Roles’.

[frosty frost]

they have that 🙂

[sick schooner]

Can I join a valhaim server if the host is not active?

[frosty frost]

if its a dedicated server then yes

[sick schooner]

Ok

What do you meen dedicated server?

mean*

[frosty frost]

server that is on all the time, that is hosted on external server somewhere, compared to a player hosted server that player can host on their own device, that one is on only when the host player is playing

[safe bison]

I just got access tor bronze, and i was wondering what weapon is the best for me to make first?

[true steeple]

Make the axe so you can chop birch and oak trees for a new type of wood

[crystal kiln]

axe for wood, atgeir for troll disposal, mace for the next biome

[safe bison]

should i use fire arrow spam for the elder?

[loud linden]

Mace is great for quick incapacitation, but what do you do when the enemy has time to wash their eyes in a nearby stream?

[crystal kiln]

if you arent confident in skill checking him in melee with shield and axe...

[safe bison]

nah i played tons of darksouls ima just roll round him

[crystal kiln]

parrying is super ez in this game if you are coming from the soulsborne games

[safe bison]

never really used parrying in Souls likes, besides bloodborne, but I've been using parrying in Valheim and it seems pretty easy

[crystal kiln]

it is

[true steeple]

Any bronze melee weapon works well and you can easily block his attacks, roll through them or walk away. Just try not to get far enough to trigger his ranged attack. There's no point in parrying bosses because it uses more stamina than rolling and won't stagger the boss.

[safe bison]

if i stay close will he summon those wood tentacles?

[true steeple]

Yes, but they're very weak

[crystal kiln]

yeah, somtimes he will
just move

[true steeple]

When blocking his stomp you need to aim your shield below the centre of his body, not his foot.

[safe bison]

I appreciate the advice, thanks. I should be good for now.

[loud linden]

GL dude! Say 'hi' to Jenny for me.

[echo ore]

i've killed Bonemass, but i've never seen a surtling; so why am i being raided by surtlings now?

[lilac coyote]

Because you've killed Bonemass. You said it yourself.

[echo ore]

the wiki says the requirements are having killed bonemass AND a surtling

[buoyant peak]

A surtling dying is another requirement

[crystal kiln]

off-screen kills by water count as well...

[echo ore]

AH

[buoyant peak]

And it could've died off-screen

[echo ore]

indeed

[jovial ledge]

should I expect the Howling Cavern locations to be the tallest mountains on the map?

[echo ore]

ok, ty!

[hollow mantle]

Not necessarily.

[small nest]

i stumbled uppon them very often in good big mountains, they were common for me to find them by accident, so explore big bass mountains and you may get across one, altough hildirs map is still the best

[mint smelt]

Should I cap my framerate at what my monitor's refresh rate is?

[true steeple]

Yes

[mint smelt]

Should I round up or down?

its like 59.940

[true steeple]

I’d round down but I don’t know what’s actually best

[crystal kiln]

set to 60

[small nest]

or turn on vsync, its the best you can do

it also prevents screen's stripping or something like that i dont remember

[crystal kiln]

it prevents that by setting the framerate to the monitor max

useful for some games and monitors and less so for others...

[jovial ledge]

where my equipment is if I exited the game after getting killed before respawning? I returned to the place where I was killed but there is no tombstone there

[true steeple]

You’ll need to load a backup (use the manage saves button on character/world select). It didn’t save correctly.

[safe bison]

Is the game more fun with a group? I'm playing solo and feel like I'm spending hours harvesting/running back resources to my base instead of actually doing anything. Does having more players quicken this process?

[hollow mantle]

Not really. Because you need more mats.

[frozen dew]

hey is anyone else having issues with the game crashing? havent had them before but recently i had like a unity and valheim logo pop up with an error or something (happened like 3 or 4 times in one night)

[hollow mantle]

Where it does help, though, is you can divide the work and get multiple things done simultaneously.

[crystal kiln]

world mods ftw

[hollow mantle]

Mines stable. Are you using the Steam version? If so, check the install.

[lilac coyote]

Except then you don't agree on what to do WITH the resources,one guy just wants to build, one person ends up doing ALL the farming...

[frozen dew]

I am using the steam version, verifying my files and moved my install onto a more stable drive and it still happened just slightly later

[lilac coyote]

World mods exist on single player so that rather negates that advantage.

[hollow mantle]

Hehe, yeah, I’m lucky that with my group we naturally fell into a good division of labour, most of the time.

[lilac coyote]

Same with us, though we did have to ditch one guy back in the day who just used resources to build his own projects.

[hollow mantle]

If you did that, then it’s likely a hardware issue.

[frozen dew]

oh thats so upsetting to hear

[hollow mantle]

I mean, check all drivers, etc. But I’m assuming you did that already.

[frozen dew]

i checked my gpu but if could name a few others that would be great

[hollow mantle]

GPU drivers would be the main ones, but chipset/motherboard drivers also.

[manic gyro]

Does anybody know if windmills continue milling if you're away (the zone is not active), like furnaces?

[mellow lodge]

yes

[small nest]

its unforgetable experience with 1 or 2 pals, too much guys can make game too grindy and too hard (constantly needing to help someone in something/get his things back), i definitely recommend playing with homies for the 1st time

[mellow lodge]

how popular is the Eitr-weave gear? do people find the +eitr regen worthwhile?

[true steeple]

The full set will increase your eitr regeneration by 100%, so it’s definitely worth using if you want to use magic

The low defence isn’t an issue because of the staff of protection

[mellow lodge]

i guess i'm still skeptical of the staff of protection because of my inexperience with it. just such a different playstyle

[crystal kiln]

the most important feature is that it makes your parry invincible

no more 2 star mobs hitting trough it

[mellow lodge]

yeah, saw that. of course avoiding being in range to need to parry is probably best. let my skellies be in melee, while i float at range. shit happens obviously

[true steeple]

If there’s not many enemies it can be safe to break your shield for extra damage by parrying

[crystal kiln]

im in range because i want to parry to burts a mob into oblivion

[light marlin]

I need some assistance regarding save files; does anyone know what to do when characters disappear and reloading older saves results in nothing?

[mellow lodge]

makes sense. i play it safer in general, i suppose

[true steeple]

It’s good if you’re fighting a single starred enemy, because there’s nothing to hit you after you parry and it would otherwise take forever to kill

[light marlin]

For context, I just left Xbox Insiders preview, and have all save files, but no characters appearing in the select a character menu.

[true steeple]

Any saves used in the public test can’t be used on the stable release until the stable release is updated

[light marlin]

Ok, thanks.

I can still use my worlds though, they came back when I did tried restoring them. Is it just for characters?

[true steeple]

What do you mean by tried restoring them? If you loaded a backup from before you played in the public test, the saves will work. You can do this for any characters if they have backups old enough.

[light marlin]

I got two characters to work that are old, and all my worlds, including one I played this morning on the Preview, and one I played a couple days ago on the preview. Both were completely functional once I restored their most recent save, and had builds I made this morning.

[lusty panther]

I'm struggling to figure out how to unlock the Sap extractor. I've been playing around in Mistlands for several hours now and it's still not unlocked. Any ideas?

[true steeple]

The dvergr have a required ingredient

[lusty panther]

Any Dvergr or do I have to go to their town or something?

[true steeple]

Go to one of their locations and find a dvergr component crate. Then break it open and kill them all or run away

If you want to kill them, lure some enemies over first to weaken them

[mellow lodge]

you could also just kill the ward in the area indirectly somehow, and then you can do whatever there. there are some tricks for that.

i like my dvergr bros and try to avoid killing them

[true steeple]

Where’s the fun in letting things live

[mellow lodge]

ah, you play the murder hobo style. i get it. 🙂

[bright hollow]

well guys im kinda stuck on moder. I have the fenrir armor, frostner and silver shield, should i change to heavy armor or my weapon or something? Any help is appreciated

[mellow lodge]

a lot of people use arrows to kill Moder. if that's your plan, fenrir is fine since you'll be running around shooting her. so it depends on how you want to murder her

[true steeple]

She’s immune to frost damage, so you shouldn’t be using the frostner. You dont need to change anything else

[true steeple]

What weapon did you make with iron? It should work well

[true steeple]

It’s best to use both. Use arrows when she flies then use melee for more damage on land

[bright hollow]

i tried it but my bow broke after i got her to like 2/3 hp

[bright hollow]

the iron mace

[mellow lodge]

you could have a covered workbench hidden dug under her altar to repair, fyi

[true steeple]

That’s good enough, use that instead of the frostner. Bring an old bow if you have one so you can keep shooting if your main bow breaks again

[bright hollow]

dont you need the forge to repair the bow?

[true steeple]

The finewood bow is good enough, it’s what I use when I fight her

[mellow lodge]

sorry, i assumed finewood. i didn't build the huntsmen or draugr i think the time i used arrows on her

[bright hollow]

i got the huntsmen, should i get the draugr?

[true steeple]

The huntsman bow is quieter, which is good in the next biome

[frosty frost]

i would get the draugr, it is the best bow untill mistlands

[mellow lodge]

when i first started in Plains, i liked pulling fulings from villages one by one with the more quiet Huntsman bow

[bright hollow]

you guys think the flesh rippers would go hard?

[hearty fog]

im trying to use dev commands but it wont let me open up the command box with f5 with a 60% keyboard since i have to use the fn key

any idea how to get around this?

[frosty frost]

are you on steam?

[hearty fog]

yes

[frosty frost]

do you have "-console" on launch options?

[hearty fog]

no, only valheim and vulkan

[frosty frost]

i mean here 🙂

[hearty fog]

oh i see

i did not but i added it

[frosty frost]

now it should open with F5 then 🙂

[hearty fog]

it worked, thank you!

[frosty frost]

You are welcome 🙂

[bright hollow]

wtf is the actual area of moders frost breath?!?

[hollow mantle]

They wouldn't be very good at ripping flesh if they weren't hard...

[oak mirage]

you can dodge it

[lime drum]

question about popular mods... are there mods I can use on worlds to edit vanilla entities/objects, like rotate, place precisely, and spawn objects easily... and so that those mods are not needed for others to play in that world?

[oak mirage]

you can always go into devcommands and spawn stuff

[lime drum]

ok, not what I'm asking, but thank you

[hollow mantle]

Probably best asked in #mods-discussion

[frail cave]

Hey guys, I'm Brazilian and I have a problem with the game, I just installed it and I can't enter my personal world, the game doesn't load, the message appears saying that it's not responding, does anyone know how to fix it?

[true steeple]

You need to wait a few minutes and it will start responding. This only happens when loading a world for the first time. Don’t click anything when it stops responding.

[frail cave]

ok, ty

i think you have saved my life

[copper raven]

so, i started a single player game, then moved the world files onto my dedicated server which I now play on... when friends play on it, can they locate/kill the relevant bosses for their level? If so are the locating stones the same ones as they were for me?

[true steeple]

They can kill any boss at any time if they have the right equipment, items to summon it and know where the boss is. Without a cartography table, the map isn't shared and they will need to find vegvisirs to get boss markers.

[copper raven]

@true steeple can any vegvisir find any boss? (at the relevant time)

[true steeple]

No. It shows the closest boss spawn of the biome it's in

[copper raven]

ah

so any meadows veg will find the meadows boss...

[true steeple]

There is only one meadows vegvisir, but in the black forest it will show the closest elder spawn

[copper raven]

i should have mapped them better

[main lynx]

Guys, I have a weird problem with Valheim that never happened before, not until Ashlands update anyway

I started fresh world with my friend, and every now and then my game freezes and crashes, last couple of minutes - gone, yet somehow this doesn't affect my friend

He always spawns where we left off before I crashed, with all his items in tact, unlike me

[steady bay]

Which one of you hosts?

[steady bay]

It's probably because the characters are saved on your account (like in Terraria, not on the world like in Minecraft) so when your game crashes he is kicked from the server but his game can save his character. While your progress doesn't have a chance to save because of the crash

[main lynx]

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Because I don't even know what's the problem here - every other game runs fine

[steady bay]

I suppose first thing to do is look in the logs to find the cause of the crash

not sure but I think on Windows theyre in C:\users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\IronGate\Valheim

[main lynx]

Thanks, I'll look into it

[river leaf]

hi, where find blood bag ?

[vivid timber]

In the swamp, they drop from killing leeches which are in the water

[river leaf]

thanks

[bright hollow]

is there a way to disable enemies from spawning while a boss fight is happening?

[ancient pawn]

@bright hollow lay work benches around the area

[lilac coyote]

Or any other base item. Workbenches would get a bit clunky.

[crystal kiln]

campfires should also work

[bright hollow]

This was hardcore, managed to kill moder while being attacked by a golem, 2 wolves and the fenris (i think thats its name)

I aint never doing a bossfight without at least 6 workbenches around

Anyhow, do shield block magic damage?

[true steeple]

Yes, shields block all damage types from blockable attacks

[bright hollow]

Figured as much

Died like an idiot to moders breath bc i thought shield wont do anything

xD

[true steeple]

You didn’t think to roll if you couldn’t block?

[bright hollow]

Stamina and bad positioning

Started using more of the environment to my advantage

Her breath was kinda janky, sometimes id get hit, sometimes not

what exactly are the sign functions since ashlands? I have heard it's changed, I can't quite recall but it seems to be different

[jovial ledge]

is Valheim wike about axes and clubs correct? It claim that the attack time of one-handed axes and clubs is about the same, i.e. 1.1 seconds for the first attack.
HOWEVER, my charater swings axes much slower that he does with clubs. He's about the same skill in both and is swinging iron axe and club.

[frosty frost]

the clubs and swords have the same attack speed, axes are indeed slower, and wiki says that

[jovial ledge]

These numbers say clubs and axes are about the same attack time; axes even being faster

1.11 vs 1.14 sec

[modest yarrow]

First hit is faster, other 2 are slower

[jovial ledge]

I'm talking about the first hit only. It does seem like axes do it noticeably slower that axes in game, but the wiki says otherwise

[modest yarrow]

I wonder if there’s some part of the axe starting animation that isn’t counted by the wiki

Hello good evening, does anyone know where I can find the best seeds in the world of Valheim?

[true steeple]

You can get vineberry seeds from vineberry clusters

[vital parrot]

is there any way to turn off stability

[echo ore]

Is there a way to get anything snapped in 0.5m increments vertically?

[hollow mantle]

I think only by eyeballing something like a 1x1 floor tile to the side of a 1m pole, say, and then using that as a reference point.

[echo ore]

Ok. Is the thickness of the 1m beam 0.5m?

[hollow mantle]

I don’t think so. And they snap to their centre vertically, anyway.

[echo ore]

Yeah. I was just thinking of using the thickness as a guide

[hollow mantle]

But I guess you could do 1m pole, snap beam to top and bottom, and the shift-place eyeball a beam between them.

[echo ore]

Yeah

[lilac coyote]

I've never used it myself, but doesn't pressing Q and E change snapping points?

[hollow mantle]

It does, but there’s no vertical centre snap on poles. Just either end.

[thorn spire]

you can stack corewood logs. I think they're about .5m in thickness. Then you can snap off the end of your log.

I mean corewood beams.

If that's not quite the height you need, a standard beam will snap to top or bottom of a corewood beam, giving you an extra bit of height, or taking some away.

[echo ore]

Great idea!

[shadow stag]

why arent my ashvines producing berries? they are clinging to the wall but there no berries at all

[oak mirage]

takes like 2 hours for them to respawn

iirc

[hollow mantle]

Ashvines are a little bugged (though the berry production rate might be intended).

Just leave them and check them every so often. They will produce berries eventually. But it’s really slow. And you only get like 1-2 clusters per plant. Usually 1.

Also, portalling away, or logging out, may cause growth and/or berry production to revert.

looking for a host site to have my own server. anyone have any recomendations of whos decent and who to avoid]

[jovial ledge]

to defeat Bonemass efficiently, one may need to venture into the Mountains (i.e. next biome) to gather components for Frost Arrows. Does this pattern work for other bosses?

[lilac coyote]

I disagree it's even a pattern at all. There's no reason to skip biomes in Valheim.

And before I get pounced on, I'm not saying you can't, just that it's not necessary.
