[echo sparrow]

so just over 2 months--that is about what I'd have guessed a "longer" PTB would probably run

[tired root]

You need Black Forge, materials are Copper and Yggdrasil wood

[lapis terrace]

@patent atlas english only chat

[zenith saddle]

...can Abominations destroy tombstones or so? I just cannot find my tombstone anywhere near the death marker

[frosty frost]

Nope, no mob can destry tombstones

[true steeple]

Did you leave the game immediately after dying? Others here have done that and it has deleted their tombstones. You can load a character backup with the manage saves button on character select.

[zenith saddle]

I did, because the Abomination destroyed the portal... I'll try that out, thank you

[true steeple]

Wait until you respawn next time

[zenith saddle]

I don't exactly remember if I did wait to respawn... But I just reloaded a backup, so thank you 🙂

[mortal gulch]

does blood magic skill increase trollstav's damage?

[steep tusk]

Better question:

Does Trollstav do damage?

||No? So then how would your question even work?||

[mortal gulch]

?? it spawns a troll

[frosty frost]

+200% damage and knockback, +250% protection, -33% eitr usage, -33% health usage at lvl 100

[mortal gulch]

thank you

[echo sparrow]

it's the initial meteor that drops right--it actually does buff the damage of that, but otherwise the only real effect for the troll spell is the HP and eitr cost reduction

[mortal gulch]

cause i just tried it and the troll doest seem to do alot of damage and he dies super quickly

[zenith saddle]

How high up should I build my AFK hut for a surtling farm? I found a geyser in the middle of the ocean that'd be super easy to spawnproof, but I still wanna protect myself from Wraiths

[echo sparrow]

Are the summoned trolls hostile to EACH OTHER?

[true steeple]

No

[zenith saddle]

like is this high enough?

or should I go up another two ladders

[bright reef]

are there any faster way to farming bloodbags?

[junior ingot]

not sure, but i was lucky enough to find a spot on my map that spaw lox, leeches, deer, boar and surtlings all in one relatively small area, so i can just go for a short trip and collect all the materials i want

just swamp next to plains is a great passive loot area

and a small piece of meadows for the boar and deer

[pliant tide]

is there a way to change my existent character's name

[scenic sphinx]

What do you do with old items? (old armor,weapons)

[mellow lodge]

stash them away in chests for a rainy day. eventually, remember that i still have flint gear and yes, now that i'm in the Ashlands, i can put that stuff in the obliterator

[unkempt spire]

How do i play PTR patch

[echo sparrow]

aw--i kinda figured they weren't, but it occured to me that would be a good way to get rid of them or at least winnow their health down, and also spectacular fight to witness

[subtle parrot]

What platform?

[unkempt spire]

pc? steam?

[echo sparrow]

[subtle parrot]

☝️

[echo sparrow]

'yesimadebackups' is the code password on steam 'betas' tab under properties for game

[subtle parrot]

Maybe in the game files, but otherwise not in game

[subtle parrot]

Stash it or throw it in the ocean or an obliterater

[subtle parrot]

I think as long as you're within the spawn range it should be fine either way

[echo sparrow]

@scenic sphinx i'd DEFINITELY keep a set of old armor and weapons, even once "obsolete" relative to the latest biomes you have access to, or even a few sets, as these can come in handy for corpse runs

[zenith saddle]

Is this safe to AFK in? I don't really wanna AFK here and have died to a Wraith

looks like this from the inside

[feral fog]

1. Make a dump world
2. Load up with chests
3. Dump junk
4. Delete world

[mellow lodge]

i would close the window just in case. then consider putting yourself in sneak. also make sure there aren't 3 player base objects, so you don't trigger a raid

[rapid agate]

Hello, does anyone know what is needed to improve the black forge to level 6 because they ask me to improve a sword to level 3?

[mellow lodge]

not possible yet

[zenith saddle]

are portals base objects? Because I only got that and some crafting tables (and the building stuff)

[rapid agate]

oooh thanks friend

[mellow lodge]

yes. campfire, workbench, other crafting tables, portals

my swamp AFK building was just a portal after i built it. (near surtling farm)

i also would build off an indestructable tree or on top of a crypt, instead of a couple logs, just in case

[zenith saddle]

kinda difficult here

[mellow lodge]

if this is temporary, then it's fine. just get to less than 3 playerbase objects imo

[zenith saddle]

well I did think that this would be my best bet at a surtling farm as I wouldn't have to worry about stuff like Abominations or anything ruining my day

once it's done I'll only keep a crafting bench below the hut if I do have to do any repairs and the portal and that'd be it

[gloomy edge]

you only have one farm?

[mellow lodge]

i only bothered with one surtling farm, it was fine since i had a good afk spot

[mellow lodge]

i would rather use a hoe and raise earth than use beams like that

[zenith saddle]

I need so much stone to raise the floor... I think I'll go build a Greydwarf farm tomorrow

Thanks a ton for those tips! I'll definitely do that.

tbf I kinda needed a Greydwarf farm anyway for that fortress that I wanted to build as my main base

so might as well so I can finish the surtling farm

[gloomy edge]

i always mark every surtling geyser on the map, then i build a wall around it and set up 2 portals inside. it's so much more efficient this way you can jump from portal to portal every 5 minutes

[zenith saddle]

damn that is a pretty smart idea actually

[mellow lodge]

eh. i find it pretty efficent to AFK for a few hours while I have other things to do, and just collect more coal and cores than I can carry from a single farm

it's not like i'm playing valheim every second of the day, so AFK time is free.

your way works for you, mine worked for me. in the end, we both have infinite coal and cores, so whose to say which method is "more efficient" ?

or even "much more efficient"

[zenith saddle]

I guess Hakon's is more efficient if you're insisting on spending every single second the game is open on actually playing the game

which is... Fine, I guess? It does make the in-game day counter make more sense

[mellow lodge]

yes

sadly i have to sleep sometimes, so bam, there's 8 hours. then work, then kids, so yeah. the time I can actually PLAY is significantly limited 🙂

[zenith saddle]

oh don't get me wrong I'll be doing your method too lmao

[gloomy edge]

well i barely have time to play these days not even to afk so i prefer my method where i can grab 4-5 stacks in one go

but if you can afk all day that's def way more efficient

[zenith saddle]

I think both techniques have their place

but considering that I'm spending a majority of my workday in front of my PC anyway... Might as well farm some cores and coal lol

[frail cave]

that's a lotta steps for something you could also achieve by just throwing it out 20+ meters away from the base 😅

[fervent ravine]

best mod for this...Quick_Stack_Store_Sort_Trash_Restock

[lilac coyote]

Mods aren't the solution for everything.

[fervent ravine]

didnt say it was, I said it was the best mod for this situation. until you can get the Obliterator, its easier than going back and forth to a dump world

[lilac coyote]

You don't even need the obliterator, just leave things outside base range and they'll despawn in 2 days. Or just put them in the ocean.

[frail cave]

but you don't need a dump world in the first place

[fervent ravine]

obviously you prefer vanilla, and thats fine. I play though once each new release on games just vanilla then I like to mod. just offering a different perspective.

[lilac coyote]

Yes, I prefer vanilla, and to suggest options that are as vanilla as possible. Certainly outside of the mod channels.

[fervent ravine]

the mod channel is for mod issues. mod have been mentioned and discussed on this channel some 24,000 times. if you dont like a comment, scolling on by is a viable option.

[lilac coyote]

No, #mods-issues is for mod issues, #mods-discussion is for discussing mods.

[fervent ravine]

again, it was a suggestion. keep scrolling if you dont like

[steep tusk]

#mods-discussion

Oh... discord catch-up loading moment.. YAY MOBILE

[lilac coyote]

We've all done it.

[fervent ravine]

its been mentioned, thanks.

[feral fog]

So far I haven't noticed things despawning in my world. The same piles of wood are out in the woods where I left them day 1 and they're well out of range of any workbench and it's like day 65 on my creative world

[frail cave]

if more than 60 minutes (2 in-game days) have passed since an item was dropped, it'll despawn if it isn't within 20 meters of a "player base" structure (things like campfires, workbenches, torches, portals, all the same stuff that prevents enemy spawns)
this timer still ticks down while the item isn't within render distance, though it does have to be loaded to actually despawn once it's ready. as usual, sleeping helps skip some of the time.
also, below 2+ meters of water, player base protection stops working, so in that case an item will despawn even if it's technically within radius. (it doesn't instantly despawn like some sources claim though, it just can't be protected)

[scarlet girder]

What should I have to solo Moder? Right now I have Iron Set Max level (but Wolf Chest Armor for frost and Frostner Club, also Draug Fang Bow and x200 fire arrows). enough?

[steep tusk]

Fire Arrows suck, so build Obsidian.

[frail cave]

she may be weak to fire but that's only a x1.5 weakness, so 11 pierce + 22 x 1.5 fire is still just a total of 44 damage, considerably less than obsidian arrows

[mellow lodge]

I think frostner is bad against her also

[frail cave]

she's immune to spirit and frost, yea, iron weapons would be much better

[subtle parrot]

Yeh I just killed her with around 200 mixed poison and obsidian arrows earlier today

[steep tusk]

I think I kill her with less than 10 arrows every time 😄

[subtle parrot]

Melee when she lands?

[steep tusk]

So much faster.

[subtle parrot]

Indeed, but i was practically on the side of the mountain where she spawned for me this time so melee would've been difficult

[steep tusk]

Vertical hitbox when? 😛

[fading dirge]

no

[fading dirge]

i either stick them on the clothing stands (i forgot what the actual name is but they let you put up armor and a weapon/shield like it's a dummy) or just use the obliterator

[raw moat]

you were extremely close lol-- they're just called "armour stand" in-game

[lime fjord]

anyone can help? why after update the game looks like this

there is sound

I tried reinstall it

still stuck like that

[frosty frost]

Do you use any mods by chance?

[lime fjord]

i just unnistalled mod too, but no effect

[willow jungle]

Anyone pls? 🥹

[tiny scroll]

What does it mean by playfab?

It shows Log in with PlayFab

Is anyone just happened to see this?

[lilac coyote]

This is how crossplay works.

[tiny scroll]

Well…so what should I do to? Just waiting ?

[true steeple]

What happens when you select 'Yes'?

[tiny scroll]

Turn to blank

[true steeple]

Can you join cross-platform servers after that?

[tiny scroll]

A few minutes ago, I could still join the server, but after restarting the game, nothing works anymore.

[tiny scroll]

Nah seems I stuck here

Alr maybe the Microsoft server crashed again

[long marlin]

I am using a dedicated server via Valhost and it says versions are incompatible. But when I check they both are running the same version. I have updated game and server. Does it take time for server to get update or is there another reason why I can’t get the update to work on the server?

[lilac coyote]

If the server says the same version as the client then it's already updated. Check any mods you might be using.

[long marlin]

What if i am not using any mods? @lilac coyote

[lilac coyote]

Then I'm not sure. Check with your host.

[icy oriole]

my mate's stamina will not recharge and the game thinks he's crouching. Reinstalling didnt fix, file integrity didnt fix, changing server didn't fix and changing character didn't fix. No matter what he does (even devcommands 'heal' don't fix this issue)

HELP!

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/787132765992255508/1300783447782064178/Screenshot_2024-10-29_222824.png?ex=6722187d&is=6720c6fd&hm=db417f9bbc24abc7d3ca78bd0640879de6c4ed371b74936210cde950c77c22a7&

also interestingly the screenshot says he's in a 'deep forest', but i've never heard of that existing. He says he generated (the new world to test stam) after the new bog witch update

[true steeple]

Has he ever installed mods before? If yes, he needs to delete everything in the installation folder, then reinstall the game.

[icy oriole]

yes, we have valheimVR mod, but my client is fine and we have the exact same settings

[true steeple]

Updates break mods. It's best not to use them until they have been updated for this version of valheim.

[real nebula]

#mods-issues would be a better place to ask, we can't really offer support for modded games

[icy oriole]

okay thanks, if the issue persists after we've uninstalled then ill send another messgae, if not, thanks for all the help!

[round bobcat]

hello, i cant seem to find unbaked lox meat pie in my lvl 5 cauldron. i have the ingredients in my inventory and still i dont have the recipe. could i be doing something wrong?

[real nebula]

As of the latest update, all bakeable goods are prepared in one of the new crafting stations, the food prep table

[true steeple]

You need the new crafting station to make food that has to be baked

[round bobcat]

thank you so much!

[tawdry meteor]

Hello, can someone help me? After I restarted my vallheim server,for the update all my stuff disappeared and I can't craft anything anymore

[thorn spire]

looks like you use mods. They all break after updates.

[lapis terrace]

mods broken

[tawdry meteor]

when i deleate them then everthing works?

[thorn spire]

maybe? You may need to do a fresh install.

[fathom badge]

Depends on what mods were installed and what effects they have. But if there are custom items from your mods then your save info probably won't work until the mods are updated.

[thorn spire]

so I know that the Bog Witch will only show up in unexplored swamp, but does it have to be a completely unexplored biome or might she appear on the interior of a swamp I've sailed past (coastline shows on my map.)

[mellow lodge]

ooof. so bog witch went live with controller issue? bleh

[mellow lodge]

the game world is generated in chunks. so if the chunk is already genereated, no witch. explore a new area, chunk genereated, maybe witch

[thorn spire]

Thanks. That's how I thought it worked.

[molten mountain]

if the area isn't shown on the map yet, you can fairly safely assume that it hasn't generated and new content will possibly spawn there:)

[near crystal]

Just for clarification, Bog Witch can spawn in already existing worlds yes?

[true steeple]

Yes, new content generates in unexplored areas

[subtle parrot]

Will be fixed asap

[mellow lodge]

Even so, it’s an interesting decision

[subtle parrot]

Seems they didn't have much choice according to smiffe

[void orchid]

Just logged in and a bunch of recipes has disappeared from de cauldron. The fermenting ones mainly I think. Anyone knows why this is?

[mellow lodge]

That’s a bummer

[zenith saddle]

I think I messed up my Greydwarf farm. How do I know that the placement of those things is optimal? Or how can I fix it? Is there a way to prevent Brutes and such from spawning?

[subtle parrot]

Indeed

[mellow lodge]

New crafting tables. Pick up some wood and they should show up in your list

The new food crafting tables that is. Bog witch update

[zenith saddle]

here it is from another angle

like they're just chillin in-between those fire pits

[void orchid]

Aha! Found them in the mead ketill. Order restored. Thanks!

[fierce abyss]

Hey can the bog witch still spawn if the world was created before the update?

[subtle parrot]

Yes as long as you have some unexplored swamps

[fierce abyss]

Thx

[subtle bay]

• Tool: Scythe - Allows you to speed up the harvesting of your crops

... oh my goood... yesss... fiiiiinally..

I assume there's no quests like Hildir?

@zenith saddle Why not have the spawner over the top of a hole?

Why are brutes a problem actually, to be specific

[zenith saddle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHDn6xBhrnk I used this tutorial

[subtle bay]

Ah.

Me personally, I just mined a big pit. The spawner floats after all.

[untold cedar]

Anyone having this issue on console? Happens in inventory menu and build menu

[true steeple]

There were controller support issues in the public test that haven’t been fixed for ‘stable’ release

[zenith saddle]

and you kill them how...?

[untold cedar]

Gotcha, so public branch Xbox versions are just screwed for the time being?

[zenith saddle]

I know you can use wolves but I don't really have access to them yet due to being just past the bronze/black forest stage

[frail cave]

mind that their choice of braziers was deliberate - they're the only fire source that doesn't take damage when it deals damage. iirc those fire pits take damage, so if i'm correct, they'll have to be repaired very frequently

[zenith saddle]

oh. Someone in the comment section did say that you could also use those instead.

[frail cave]

oh, hmm, jump on top of one, maybe i'm wrong!

-# i admit i haven't had too much time to become accustomed to all hildir stuff and beyond

[subtle parrot]

Nah no quests but bosses unlock different stuff like with haldor

[lilac coyote]

There IS a new event though.

[wind bison]

anyone having issues updating?

[old summit]

I am having this exact problem, though I am not using a console, just an xbox controller on linux

[wind bison]

i didnt have enough space on disk it seems

[untold cedar]

So controller inputs are the problem then. In theory, shouldn’t take long to fix that. My experience in game development is with unreal though. I don’t know if it’s insanely difficult in unity after their big update. Pretty straightforward in unreal though to work out controller bugs.

[true steeple]

Hopefully while fixing it they also fix some controller issues that have been around for longer, like holding secondary attack cancelling movement inputs.

[old summit]

If this affects all controllers, I imagine they will make it a high priority

[subtle parrot]

Never had that issue, how did that happen?

[true steeple]

While holding the secondary attack button, your movement inputs are ignored with a controller

[subtle parrot]

For me the secondary is the same as the block button, and that's never happened. I have my setting on console 2, so it's the left trigger as opposed to the bumper if that makes a difference

[true steeple]

How does secondary being the same as block work? When you press it do you block or attack?

[hoary fog]

exactly that I wanted to see. It's not my gamepad 👌

[true steeple]

I’ve just set my layout to console 2 and it’s still happening

[vague silo]

When a friend and I try to pvp it hits and registers skill gain but 0 damage

[true steeple]

You both need friendly fire enabled

[vague silo]

I know

I said when it hits it's 0

Damage for both of us

But we gained sword levels hitting

[novel sable]

Hey Guys! We are hosting our world on dedicated server. Today after the patch our world won't load at new version. Anyone know how to solve it?

[lilac coyote]

Update server?

[novel sable]

We did

[subtle bay]

You can just slide down and jump back up. I have braziers clipping through the ground. Sets them on fire just like yours.

[novel sable]

There was a message

We played on Vanilla, no mods at all

[lilac coyote]

Did you restart your server? Looks like it's supposed to update automatically

[novel sable]

ye, we did

[lilac coyote]

I don't know what to suggest then. You might need to speak to your host.

[novel sable]

Yeah, I guess so.
Version looks good tho.

[lilac coyote]

Hm, that is up to date then.

[subtle parrot]

Oh secondary attack, I thought you were talking about secondary function, my bad

I'm dumb and can't read sometimes lol

[tiny locust]

https://gyazo.com/0dd939a3b303f5402d6fc36f35a609f7 just downloaded the update and everything is broken. tf is this

[mellow lodge]

any chance you're using mods?

[tiny locust]

only 2. deleted them now. stopped spinning, but lost my armor

[subtle parrot]

If you're using a controller some inputs are bugged right now

[stoic trench]

Mods are risky risky 👀

[tiny locust]

while on the topic, how do i locate the bog witch

[subtle parrot]

She's in the swamp

[stoic trench]

Keep searching unexplored swamps!

[tiny locust]

ye but will i find her in an already explored swamp or only undiscovered?

[subtle parrot]

Or you can use ||find bog witch 10|| in console commands

[neon sinew]

I have a question about the fiery spice powder from the bog witch, at what point in the game can I unlock that?

[stoic trench]

After Fader

[neon sinew]

Thank you

[proper otter]

buuut the armor we lost in our inventory since we used the MOD for armour slots, are they lost forever ? 😄

[mellow lodge]

you could restart from a backup OR make the armor again OR use dev commands to spawn back in your missing armor

[proper otter]

yeah, we are doint that now, thank's for the info!

[half plaza]

Do I need to update my dedicated server or will steam automatically update it to bogwitch?

[tribal eagle]

can someone help me how to fix this?

its all blurry

[compact crypt]

So I've recently updated Valheim to play Ashlands. Unfortunately, it started behaving, with a stuttering issue I've never experienced before. Haven't changed anything in my PC, in terms of hardware, and it should be reasonably capable to run without any problem. I initially thought it was related to the smoke-heavy Ashlands landscape, but it happens everywhere. I started disabling every mod and run vanilla, lowering every possible setting but it's constantly there. I've started a new game and now I'm noticing consistently when using the bow, I draw it and while I aim it halts for a split second. It's pretty annoying and I can't find a way to fix it. I also tried closing every background app with no luck. Any suggestion would be very welcome!

[true steeple]

Change the render scale in graphics settings

[tribal eagle]

to what? I played yesterday and everything was fine. It started as soon as I downloaded the bog witch update

[true steeple]

Put it as high as it can go while keeping a stable framerate. I have it at 75%

[tribal eagle]

it worked thank you! I was trying tp fix it for 3 hours :D is it safe to mod the new update already?

[true steeple]

It would depend on which mods you want to use. I don’t use mods but I expect that only the smallest mods have already been updated.

[tribal eagle]

thank you so much for your help!! :)

[compact crypt]

I see some in my list have updates available (PlantEverything, PlantEasily) but the biggest I use, ValheimPlus, still has to be updated

[tribal eagle]

I'm going to look if the ones I use are updated

[old summit]

I updated our dedicated server this morning. At first, I could not logon, but I was able to after a few minutes. I think the new server had to make some updates to the world save, before it would run (even though the server was already running).

[novel sable]

It's been 1 hr but our Admin is afk rn xD

[old summit]

I submitted a bug report for this. If you are encoutering a similar problem, I encourage you to submit a bug report too: https://www.valheimgame.com/support/

[nova kindle]

It's known, Smife mentioned that it will be fixed ASAP.

[old summit]

We found the bog witch in an unexplored swamp.

[turbid meteor]

Hello. I have a bug to report. The player based raids are active even if I deactivate them. This started happening after the bog witch patch. Please fix asap TY!🥳

[tranquil nymph]

Anyone having issues with the update? When I go to my inventory, it just keeps scrolling faster and faster

[scarlet girder]

Defeated Moder. Next? What to go for and goals?

[frosty frost]

You go to play in the plains for a bit 🙂

[scarlet girder]

I have in my map fire towers and sealed tumb, what one is plains?

And what goals in plains? Same as always( build New armor and New weapons)?

[stoic trench]

Yep, same gameplay loop- find new materials, get stronger, find and slay the boss 🙂

[indigo sapphire]

I have been having major lag issues since a couple days.
This is with minimal settings. Normally I hit 60fps with HIGH.
How can I try to solve this?
I tried:

• Validate Steam Game
• Remove and re-install game
• Update NVIDIA drivers

[fathom badge]

Has your BIOS reset or anything lately? Changed any settings in game? The render scaling can have a huge effect.

[indigo sapphire]

I didn't change anything in BIOS.
I did update to Windows 24H2.
I removed all mods, and am playing on vanilla. (still the same)

[fathom badge]

Hmm... I haven't heard of anything specific, but with 24H2 it might be prudent to use DriverCleaner or a factory reset install of the Nvidia drivers. I don't personally use an Nvidia card I'm not 100% on the procedures for them.

[indigo sapphire]

Interesting. I'll look into gpu drivers / driverCleaner

[tiny violet]

Use the Moder Tear. It lets you build an Artisan table. Build that. Then that lets you build 3 new things- Build those

[dense forum]

Hello, good afternoon, I'm having problems playing today. I deleted my character and seed to start from scratch and now I can't create a character and a new seed doesn't appear. I try to restore and I get an error.

[waxen mesa]

do i need to start a new world? for the update to take place?

[frosty dragon]

for the new skills no, currently i'm searching for the witch so i can't help with that

[frail cave]

ungenerated areas can always generate new worldgen content

[lusty light]

Is it normal for the serpent to spawn everytime i go to open sea?

[lilac coyote]

It's RNG for a serpent to spawn in any Ocean zone.

[echo sparrow]

you just have real good luck--they only spawn at night or storms THOUGH (A) if they spawned in a storm, they won't despawn--if you haven't killed it, and it's the same area you're referring to, it's very possible you keep encountering the exact same serpent and (B) if you cross a zone boundary it will "roll" chances for serpents (like it would for zone spawning in general), so I think certain routes, i.e. if you cross a lot of "invisible" boundaries will statistically be way more likely to have serpents, becaue there's more "chances" for one to spawn

[willow jungle]

Am I asking this in the wrong channel perhaps?

[ebon siren]

Hello, my friends I came with question today, I am playing on the same save for over a year and I have a question what is the range from player that the world is genarated. I want to go find the new witch trader and I wander how far I need to look from uncovered part of the map to have find him

and sorry for not the best use of english

[steep tusk]

*Her
And her spawn locations are in undiscovered Swamps.
But just like the other traders, where they are isn't always close by.

[frosty frost]

I believe the zones you loaded are being generated so that would be 5x5 zones around you

[hybrid canyon]

I've got to say I very much like how you spell lewiathan

[ebon siren]

What i mean is how far i need to go (more or less) from terrain that I uncovered before patch to start uncovering new terrain form after patch

[quasi vault]

unless that swamp would go very far to the west, the witch will not be there

[ebon siren]

thanks thats how we translate it in polish language

[hybrid canyon]

Dobja

I can speak a little bit of Polish but I can't write it sorry

[ebon siren]

no problem my friend

[hybrid canyon]

Just keep looking, the witch will turn up eventually

[quasi vault]

If you look at how wide the map is uncovered where you sailed, probably at least that amount is rendered on each side

[ebon siren]

thx for help now its time to find her

[tribal summit]

I'm wondering why "devscommand" isn't working on my end

is this because of the update?

[true steeple]

Are you the host of the world? Only the host can use cheat commands.

[tribal summit]

yeah i created my own world

[true steeple]

What happens when you enter the command?

[tribal summit]

it's not a valid command it says

[true steeple]

And you’re definitely entering ‘devcommands’ with no spelling errors?

I was using commands earlier so the update hasn’t broken them

[lilac coyote]

That's not how you spell it for one.

[tribal summit]

oh it's the spelling... got it

[lilac coyote]

Wow, that posted delayed.

[lusty light]

cauldron diseapering when placed over a hearth?

[rigid gust]

do i need create new world for this patch? im doing mistlands right now

[steep tusk]

No.

[bleak moss]

you're supposed to get the herb blends for feasts from the witch, right? is there something special you ahve to do to get her to sell them?

[lusty light]

Ok i dont get why my cauldron is just deleting itsself 😦

[quasi vault]

They are all locked behind boss kill and one is locked behind a new serpent kill

[bleak moss]

oooooooooh ok cool that explains why my test world didn't have it show up lol

[mellow lodge]

any chance you have mods installed?

[lusty light]

Yea but nothing that effects it

Just two

[mellow lodge]

i would start by disabling/uninstalling the mods first, and see if the behavior continues.

i've been re-doing my kitcken all day, and have been placing my cauldron on hearths a bunch of times. no issues.

[true steeple]

Mods often break the game in ways unrelated to their content

[patent knoll]

hello i want to understand i dig under a lot or iron and the iron doesn't drop is that normal ?

[rigid gust]

iron drops in swamp biome, you indark forest

[echo sparrow]

the hitboxes can be deceptive--if it's just close enough to the earth walls, or some supporting object, it wll stay floating

[rigid gust]

need do swamp dungeon

[patent knoll]

ok i didn"t know that

[echo sparrow]

oh wait, you were expecting that to drop iron? i thought you were just asking why it didn't pop--ya, that's the swamp dungeon for iron

[patent knoll]

sorry my bad

not iron, copper

[echo sparrow]

it should say "copper" if you mouse over it

and it's actually copper

[patent knoll]

i ll keep digging around and it should drop so, thx

[echo sparrow]

but to pop it, it should drop, once you clear enough of any support away, then hit it a few last times

when all the interconnected nodes aren't supported, the whole thing should "pop" when you pop one node, in a most satisfying (and efficient) way

[indigo sapphire]

To come back to this issue. I re-installed the nvidia driver (studio v565.90) and it works super smooth again!

[verbal dagger]

How long does it usually take for r2modman to update after a new patch? It broke and I cant start the game with my mods on currently.

[steep tusk]

#mods-discussion

[verbal dagger]

ah, thx

[idle kernel]

how do i play the update after being in the PTB? I selected "none" in beta options, but the game can't seem to find the update. I even cleared my download cache and restarted steam. I feel like I must have missed a step somewhere.

[quasi vault]

If you were on the PTB you already are on this update

[mint igloo]

Hi all! I need help. Something happened to my game and when I upgrade the workbench to level 2, I can’t see the items that should be available to me after updating to level 2. I’ve already reinstalled the game and created different worlds, but nothing changes. Who knows what the problem might be?

[silk fable]

Fiery spice powder < is this not in the bog witch inventory because I've not met some requirement or should I consider it a bug?

[quasi vault]

You have not met the requirement

[silk fable]

||Killing Fader?||

[tired root]

Which items you mean? Have you picked Deer hide yet?

[mint igloo]

As far as I know, after upgrading the workbench to the second level, I will have to be shown new items that I can create. But I don't see a single new item there

[quasi vault]

You may just have never picked up deer hide for exemple that you need to craft more advanced stuff

[tired root]

You have to have picked the required material to get it to your crafting list.

Like Leather armor requires Deer hide and lvl 2 station

[mint igloo]

That is, in order for me to have new items in the workbench list, I first need to kill a deer and get its skin, and only then will the recipe for making armor on the level 2 workbench become available to me?

[tired root]

Correct, you have lvl 2 workbench now so when you pick up Deer hide the new recipes will appear to you.

[quasi vault]

Absolutely, to unlock any recipe from any workstation you will first need to pick up every single ingredient of the recipe and have a high enough station level

[mint igloo]

Okay, thanks everyone for your help!

[compact heath]

Thats how its always worked, even if you miss one ingredient the recipe will not unlock and the game won't let you know that you're missing something, therefore pick anything new up at least once

[echo sparrow]

reminds me of the suggestion someone--regular I think--made not to long ago to have recipes unlock after all but one/some of the mats picked up, with the remainder 'greyed out' and some hint

brilliant idea, whoever suggested that

[fading dirge]

sorry i just don't know how to fix that one

[hybrid canyon]

Have you ever tried launching with vulcan? It fixed this issue for me

On a 3080

[willow jungle]

No worries mate, thanks for replying ^^

[willow jungle]

Uhm, what is Vulcan?

[hybrid canyon]

https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/qumoj9/valheim_vs_valheim_with_vulkan/

[fading dirge]

i don't actually know what vulcan is, but i do get the option to launch using vulcan when starting from steam instead of from desktop

[willow jungle]

@hybrid canyon @fading dirge when I press [Play] on Steam > Library > Valheim, the game gets launched immediately

[willow jungle]

Nvm, found it

[undone dirge]

Hello, I have a couple questions... I made a new server for the Public test server for bog witch and we noticed we cannot get access to cooking fish. Is there something we need to be doing on the public test server that is different than a regular server to get the ability to cut up and cook the fish?

[frosty frost]

The raw fish recipe has been moved to the prep table 🙂

[undone dirge]

Aaaah, and we don't have iron just yet. We made it to the swamp but have not brought our iron back home yet. xD Okay, thank you.

[true steeple]

The public test version has been released on the ‘stable’ branch so it doesn’t matter if you’re on a public test server or not

[frosty frost]

No problem 😄

[undone dirge]

Gotcha, thanks. 🙂

[stoic trench]

Would be nice if we could prep fish from our inventory so we could still have cooked fish at Black Forest tier 🤔

[willow jungle]

@hybrid canyon @fading dirge I am not 100% sure yet, but the game seems to feel better with Vulcan on, thanks both of you!

[undone dirge]

It is odd to me we can fish at Black Forest level but not eat the fish we catch. xD Other than that... it is all good. haha.

[quaint halo]

Just updated, and seeing the same controller issue that has been mentioned a few times (where the cursor in inventory & build screens goes nuts). Anyone know if this is a know issue for the devs, or if there’s a workaround?

Hoping this gets fixed soon… we were planning on doing a marathon streaming session of Valheim for Extra Life this weekend. 😕

[subtle parrot]

Yes it is

[true steeple]

It was a known issue in public testing and shouldn’t have been released to everyone

[quaint halo]

Any idea on if they’ve got it slated for a fix?

[subtle parrot]

#valheim-public-test message

[quaint halo]

Doesn’t look like I can access that. 😕

[subtle parrot]

I forgot about forwarding

[sharp lantern]

anybody else got an issue where they can't sleep or sit?

[mellow lodge]

nope, but considering everything was just updated, and everyone having problems seems to be running mods, i have to ask: are you running any mods?

[sharp lantern]

nope

and none of my friends on the server have the issue

[mellow lodge]

interesting. so you click on your bed to sleep and nothing happens?

[molten mountain]

is it sheltered well enough and is there a lit fire nearby?

[subtle parrot]

Are you using a controller?

[sharp lantern]

sheltered and lit yes, no controller, tried multiple beds

[molten mountain]

even on freshly placed beds?

[sharp lantern]

Yea. I assume it's same bug that prevents me from sittiing too

[sharp lantern]

restarting the game didn't help either. Can't sit on the floor or on a bench

also tried different binds

maybe my character just has hemorrhoids

[mellow lodge]

Poor Viking

[untold cedar]

So they did the fix it but Microsoft didn’t launch it? Just the branch previous to it that wasn’t fixed?

[true steeple]

I don’t know any more than you, I was just forwarding the message

[bleak mesa]

hey can the witch be in existing swamp or you need to find a new one ?

[true steeple]

New content only generates in unexplored areas

[manic mango]

Is there a good way to build a route over water, like a bridge? Ive build some floor from wood, but its kinda clumsy to place.

[bleak mesa]

i see hopefully we can still find it in our world

[golden kernel]

I need help, I have valheim on PC gamepass/windows store. I also run a dedicated server, how do I update the dedicated server? The only guides I see are for steam

[brisk leaf]

is their a way to prevent steam from auto updating?

[sharp lantern]

properties -> updates -> uncheck "keep game updated"

[dim forum]

Anyone know how to fix the update breaking controller inputs?

[lilac coyote]

Um, the devs do, you'll have to wait until they do so.

[true steeple]

I find that it works a little better if you don’t move the stick all the way to the edge when navigating menus.

[vivid fox]

Whenever loading up valheim this white screen just pops up and stays stuck on it, I tried restarting my game multiple times, opening from discord, and reinstalling.

[willow jungle]

I just found ||Hildir||, she is selling: ||dress, tunic, caps, sparkler, iron pit, barber kit||. Although, I remember someone saying that you can buy something from ||Hildir|| that reduces stamina when farming crops. Which item do I need for this?

[stoic trench]

||Believe it’s the brass chest. After retuning it, you should have access to the farmer set||

[willow jungle]

How do I get the ||brass chest||?

[compact heath]

kill Brenna

[willow jungle]

Who/what is Brenna?

[stoic trench]

Check out a smoldering tomb

[compact heath]

and return it to hildir, will get you the clothes you're after (we just did on our server yesterday (hildir miniboss she is

Hildir has a table when you click it marks the tomb where she is located

[stoic trench]

Have you gotten the marked dungeons from Hildirs map?

[willow jungle]

Which progress do you need to fight this mini boss? Is ||Swamp/Mountain biome|| enough?

[compact heath]

For the Bog Witch update, there is 2 things that unlock really cool stuff, one is Brenna the other is Moder, and obviously finding the new thing in the swamp

[willow jungle]

Yeah, these question marks

[compact heath]

She is Black Forest endgame level, so if you don't struggle much in the Black Forest or have started swamp and got your first iron it should not be any issue to fight that dungeon and her

[willow jungle]

I already finished mountain, so that should be fine

Thanks for the information guys!

[austere bluff]

Hey everyone! Wondering if there's a way to fix a glitch? Our recipes aren't showing up even though we've made it before 😦

[lilac coyote]

Which recipes are these?

[austere bluff]

all mead recipes

[lilac coyote]

Have you made the mead ketil yet?

[austere bluff]

we have the stuff for them but can't even make it

[thorn spire]

that's not a glitch. you need a new kettle.

[austere bluff]

do not have that 😦

[lilac coyote]

That's part of the new update.

[austere bluff]

OHHH

ok thanks guys!

[fervent sedge]

I have an issue where I don’t automatically pick things up, like for example harvested plants, etc. does anyone know a fix? Or it is smth in the settings?

[raw moat]

the default toggle for auto-pickup is "v", try hitting that

[fervent sedge]

I’m so dumb, thanks

[rich light]

in the bog witch update, will my old world have the stuff from the update?

[elfin isle]

Hello. Can anybody please explain what the genlock command does?

[buoyant peak]

Yes

[lilac coyote]

Hemlock command?

[rich light]

thanks, can it spawn in already explored areas or just unmaped ones?

[buoyant peak]

Just unmapped ones

[elfin isle]

I have an old world with my friend that is quite well explored. I want to know if genloc can help force generate the Bog Witch hut without messing other boss locations.

[rich light]

ok gotcha

[lilac coyote]

Oh, you meant genloc. Got you. No, I wouldn't use that.

[elfin isle]

What issue does it cause?

[lilac coyote]

That'll update your entire world, AFAIK.

[elfin isle]

Oh. That's bad then.

[golden kernel]

guys im having lots of issues

i tried to update my dedicated server and now it looks like my world is gone when i start the headless server

[scarlet girder]

How to stop deathskitoes of invading my base at Plains?

[dense wind]

is anyone having a huge fps drops after the patch? i normally run 144 and now its 25-30

[lilac coyote]

A drop? No, I've only seen people report slight increases.

[dense wind]

ok, thank you, im on a modded server so it must be that then.

[raw moat]

Deathsquitoes can be spawnproofed against like any other mob by building certain build pieces (fire pits, workbenches, torches, etc). Otherwise, you'd have to enclose the base, I think.

The pathing for flying enemies is pretty predictable over walls, so a tall enough wall with sharp stakes on top might catch most of them. Even if it works, though, that adds stake maintenance to your chore list...

[subtle parrot]

I was climbing a sealed tower and was nearly to the top when a squito came up and stabbed me out of nowhere

[mellow lodge]

there are ways to confuse deathsquito pathing with walls. i've built them. just search deathsquito walls on youtube. however, in practice it may just be easier to blanket the area outside your walls with some workbenches to prevent spawns

[sharp lantern]

anybody got ideas? still haven't managed to sleep

[lilac coyote]

Well, as the devs are asleep, I doubt you'll get a fix for a litte while.

[sharp lantern]

Just remembered I had my controller plugged in. The joystick drift issue that everyone else has prevented me from sleeping

[forest viper]

I can't seem to find the fiery spice for the ashlands meal at the bog witch's shop. I've got everything else.

[steep tusk]

Did you kill the boss?

[forest viper]

Fader ?

[steep tusk]

That would be the boss, yes.

[forest viper]

No, i guess I missed that tidbit

thank you!

[steep tusk]

👍

[forest viper]

didn't see that in the latest patchnotes so i was confused lol

[steep tusk]

Fully describing features and mechanics has never been the priority 😦

[feral fog]

Well. My game seems to be giving me the inventory stick drift bug after the new update... wasn't present at all in the weeks leading up to it

Why you guys would roll out an update with this as a known bug is beyond me. The game is unfuckingplayable hahaha

[coral elbow]

How do you make fishing bait now? Is that a post-bog witch thing with the update?

[steep tusk]

Yeah, it's all on the Prep Table.

[coral elbow]

ho-k ty

[steep tusk]

So you can't even fish in the BF until you've gotten to the Swamp.

[coral elbow]

kinda odd tbh but alrighty

Tbf, you can't fish in the Meadowns until you've gotten to the BF 😄

Anyone else struggling with signs atm? Let's me adjust the text half the time, the other half it just doesnt.

[copper raven]

@jolly elk figured i should shift this discussion: #mods-discussion message

hmm, neither the character nor the worlds have been modified for several days... so im sure rolling anyting back will be pointless. Also my recents still has the right contents in the file-actual, but the menu isnt displaying that either. Its like the game is broken, not some peripheral component.

[copper raven]

steam > find the betas page > default_prebw

[sinful fern]

my world is quite old and explored already, does that mean the bog witch won't spawn? since we've pretty much covered the entire map entirely almost

[steep tusk]

Yes.

[sinful fern]

aw

[jolly elk]

You might be able to add the BogWitch location manually using a mod. If you want to explore that route, you could ask in the #mods-issues or #mods-discussion channels.

[copper raven]

@jolly elk lol, it was a mod issue anyway. I removed the MHOOK directory and let Jotunn rewrite it on game start and now my menus all work fine :) And the server console appears to be normal, so i guess i have to see if i can join it now :)

meh, bogwitch can take a hike

[jolly elk]

Good! I'm glad you got that game start issue fixed. 😄

[copper raven]

back to mods-discussion with us then :)

[carmine lantern]

Heya, after the update my character can't sleep or sit anymore, when i try to sit it just immediately stand up again, and when i try to sleep it just teleport standing up on bed (i have already tried to reset controls and restart the game)

[elder meadow]

I HAVE

the same problem, its seems to be the update maybe

[carmine lantern]

I hope they fix it soon (or give a solution) x.x
My game was also working fine before the update

[tawny pagoda]

Can you tell me how to find the bog witch. Yesterday I was trying to find it with my friend for 1.5 hours and wasted our time. Is there some kind of easier method to find it?

[frosty frost]

Just look through before unexplored swamps, other than that probably only devcommands, or world generator if it Is updated yet

[tired root]

If the world is made pre-patch the world generator doesn't usually show correct locations for the spawn points even if it was updated.

[frosty frost]

I think it should if you put the world data directly into it, but i am really not sure either

[steep tusk]

If you directly upload your world files it will show the correct stuff.

If you just type your seed info, it will not.

[tawdry meteor]

after the update my server dosnt start anymore...

[steep tusk]

Just what I was typing but you did it even more shortly I was originally going to. Cheers 👍

I used to play Valheim on Xbox Game Pass long ago, now i have Valheim in Steam but i want my old same file from the Xbox Game Pass from Cloud save, how do i get it without having to buy a month on game pass?

[astral horizon]

I found a Moder location before the latest patch, but when I got there now it seems inaccessible:

It's just straight mountain. I dug as deep as I could, no altar.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, updates sometimes do that, go back to vegvisir and it will give you new location 🙂

[true steeple]

You should consider upgrading to a silver shield. It has the same block armor when parrying as the iron buckler, but normal blocking will be much stronger.

[astral horizon]

I might, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. I only use the shield for parrying, so normal blocking is irrelevant for me.

[astral horizon]

Thanks, will do

[upbeat hatch]

Can I find bog witch in swamp i’ve already discovered on my server before the update?

[frosty frost]

Nope, has to be undiscovered swamp

[upbeat hatch]

Does it have a certain radius spawn like haldor?

[frosty frost]

I believe its the same actually, but i am not really 100% sure

[upbeat hatch]

Ok thanks 👍

[turbid oak]

Should be undiscovered swamps will generate the Bog Witchs hut. Should be the radius of Haldor and Hildir for its trader icon to shop up on the map. Which i think is 1500 meters

[frosty frost]

hildirs radius is 3000 🙂

[upbeat hatch]

Thanks guys

[turbid oak]

that much really. thats insane. Wiki says Haldor has 1500 so i assumed it was the same for Hildir

[frosty frost]

Yep, she has a ring between 3000 and 5100 from spawn 🙂

[turbid oak]

I totally was confusing there spawn locations with the radius their icons will show up the map.

[silk fable]

Is there a recommend instance limit players should follow for recommended server specs?

[tiny violet]

If it is a dedicated server, you need to go to the client running the server and do “Steam Update” so that your dedicated world is updated to newest version

[lilac coyote]

12k or so is where things start to creak a little. Especially with a lot of lighting

[queen beacon]

Can the queen still escape?

[tired root]

I think it has patched long ago.

[queen beacon]

Nooooooo

[green tide]

I just got the game and started a new world, I see that the bog witch just came out. Do I need to create a new world in order to get the new content or will the new areas render in?

[tired root]

Unexplored areas will get the new content, so search for unexplored Swamps 👍

[green tide]

ok cool, I have yet to leave the meadows

thank you

[twin cradle]

I might have missed something but since the update my cauldron isnt showing all the things i had previously unlocked yesterday. All the meads and poson resist receipes etc. Did that move to another station?

[tired root]

Mead Ketill.

[thorn spire]

Yes. Meads are now made at the Ketil and uncooked foods are made at the food prep table

[twin cradle]

Excellent

[turbid oak]

Mead bases are now in the Mead Ketill

[twin cradle]

makes sense. Thanks all

[astral horizon]

Just wanted to throw out a general thank you to the extremely helpful community we have here. If you've helped someone, I thank you on their behalf.

[twin cradle]

Ditto, amazing community

[last latch]

If my friend is on Ps and me on steam, can we play together?

[raw moat]

Should be able to. Just make sure "crossplay" is enabled in the server's settings when you start it up.

[last latch]

Alr thanks

[turbid oak]

Considering Valheim isnt on Playstation yet, PS and Steam can not play togehter

[lilac coyote]

Huh?

[last latch]

Oh
Well good to know

[raw moat]

Qhdksjwh lmao I just assumed they already had the game to be asking about crossplay and I just hadnt heard about a PS release... my bad 😔

[scenic sphinx]

why i dont have anything in here?

[silk fable]

Is it fair to assume that you'll experience the following with an extremely high instance count (50k+) EVEN IF your FPS does not drop significantly...

• objects not loading in as quick as others
• containers not being interactable for a short time or inventory not appearing
• other player positions not matching minimap
• dropped items not showing up for other players for some time
• enemy positions delayed for some players

[subtle parrot]

You need to find the bog witch for feast ingredients, with each boss you beat she'll have a new ingredient. Also have you gathered any thistle from the black forest or swamps?

[true steeple]

The food preparation table is for raw fish, food that has to be baked and feasts

[echo sparrow]

you touch any of the ingredients for the items@true steeple described (e.g. catch a fish)?

sometimes, also, after an update, need to take one of these items out of inventory, then pick up again, to "trigger" the recipes revealing

[scenic sphinx]

wait, it's new patch thing?

[tacit owl]

I'm sorry to start another discussion, but I was just wondering if there is a chance for the witch to spawn on my map? (We've only explored what's inside the yellow circle - I apologize if it's unclear, I wasn't sure how else to showcase it because my game map is littered with markers lmao)
I'm just slightly anxious that she won't spawn, I don't really wanna start another world, since we've finally managed to reach the mountains

[silk fable]

Any unexplored swamp area of relatively large size has a chance to spawn. I highly doubt you will have a hard time finding her

[subtle parrot]

The whole prep table is new

[scenic sphinx]

Btw, what unlocks recipe to craft something out of those? my chest is getting filled with them and there is nothing i can do with them.. (i havent killed swamp boss yet, still prepin for it)

[tacit owl]

Awesome! Thank you so much

[quasi vault]

Thistle and turnip in order to make the spice rack to unlock the recipe they are used in

[subtle parrot]

The ratatosk tonic base needs a fermenter to make the actual tonic, need thistle and a level 2 (iirc) cauldron to make sausages with the boar meat and intestines

[subtle parrot]

Ah yes turnips, I always forget about those

[wild ocean]

Has anyone else noticed an insane spike in sensitivity for controller? And if so, have you found a workaround? This nearly makes the game unplayable

[subtle parrot]

Yes, and no workaround, the devs are working on a hotfix

[wild ocean]

Ok, whew. Glad to know I'm not the only one

[scenic sphinx]

Do you guys upgrade iron gear? i made +1 upgrade for my armor and mace but im not sure if it's worth it.

[real nebula]

if you can afford the materials, it is nearly always worth upgrading

no such thing as being too prepared

[subtle parrot]

I usually go up to level 3 for my iron gear but level 4 for the iron mace

[wild ocean]

The question is dependent on your confidence. Do you think you can mine the next tier with the unupgraded gear and defend yourself while doing it? If so, go get the next tier metal

[buoyant peak]

Only if the item in question doesn't have a following upgrade in the next biome or the material cost is very cheap

[wild ocean]

Excellent point. Is the upgrade worth the effort/materials?

[buoyant peak]

I skip on certain weapons for that reason as well.

Swamps spear and bow shouldn't be a thing

[subtle parrot]

Draugr fang is nice though

[buoyant peak]

Even fang spear is better than fully upgraded iron atgeir in terms of dmg

[subtle parrot]

The iron feather bow is also nice

[buoyant peak]

It's also cheap to craft, upgrade, and there's no black metal spear.

Fang spear appreciation moment

[twin cradle]

You need entrails for the sausage recipe. I’m not sure what item unlocks it, caldron and spice rack maybe.

[quasi vault]

That's probably the best place to stop after 1 upgrade, after that it just become probably too expensive and you'd rather keep that iron for later

[wild ocean]

No. Spears are satan and should be avoided at all costs unless used as a purely ranged weapon lol that attack animation was created by someone with a logical error in their brain

[buoyant peak]

Your exception is literally the worst way to use them?

You pretty much killed your own argument

[loud linden]

I really hate sausages. Not because they're a bad food, but because when you're looting Infested Mines in Mistlands and the game says to you, "Hey! Here's a cool chest of fun stuff - have some food from two biomes ago!"

[wild ocean]

That stab forward is the good attack in your mind? Show me ONE other person using a spear like that ever. In the entire existence of the universe. A spear is used for its range

[subtle parrot]

They were good enough for dvergr, they're good enough for you

[echo sparrow]

at least now we have a real good use for them--feasts

[loud linden]

Honestly, if sausages are going to be so common, we really need the recipe to make hotdog buns with flour, and for the devs to include Bunnings franchises around the map.

Yeah, I'm probably gonna have to wait until they fix it. Too irritating

[subtle parrot]

Understand that

[loud linden]

Join the PC master race.

[wild ocean]

What do you think I'm playing on lol

[subtle parrot]

You'll probably have a better time using mouse and keyboard

[wild ocean]

I specified controller. If I was playing on console, I wouldn't have made that effort, because that's your only option lol

Yeah, but I'm not a masochist....so I shall be using a controller lol as I said, I'll just wait for the fix

[loud linden]

If you have access to mouse and keyboard and still choose a console controller, I have no time for you.

[real nebula]

Come on now, there's no need for that

[wild ocean]

Well, that's why you're a moose

[frail cave]

okay but

[loud linden]

You need to understand that nothing I say is serious.

[wild ocean]

How you even play without breaking your keyboard is a marvel. You must have the most ginger touch with those massive hooves

[subtle parrot]

No worries, thankfully my controller is only a little over 8 months old, so my stick has almost no drift at all, and I have very little issues with it.

[wild ocean]

Yeah, I thought it was my drift making all these problems. Nope, it's this last update

[loud linden]

Hey hey, now. Let's not start on my hair colour... 😛

[wild ocean]

Who mentioned hair? lol

[subtle parrot]

It's a bit of both imo, even if you don't notice it, it may have the slightest drift to it and it'll make the issue 10x worse. As for mine, I can just tap the stick and it will stop going wild in the menus and navigate with the dpad.

[loud linden]

Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger.

[wild ocean]

Context. Ginger has more than one meaning

[subtle parrot]

Am ginger, you ginger

[echo sparrow]

hot dogs would be hilarious--what would be the sauerkraut, thistle?

[subtle parrot]

Jinjer though

[wild ocean]

What? Lol thistle?

[loud linden]

Amazing vocal skills. But, I'm confident she has a soul.

[subtle parrot]

Sea cucumber

[loud linden]

Now I just want tomatoes as a crop. So versatile! Ketchup for hotdogs; use them with flour for bolognese pasta... I like it!

[buoyant peak]

https://valheim.com/es/news/the-trial-of-tyr-announcing-the-winners

[steel glacier]

server command to clean dropped items on map?

[true steeple]

Removedrops

[wild ocean]

One other meaning NOT in Valheim lol you using an argument for why it's good in the only place where it's used stupidly is not a valid argument

[buoyant peak]

Because we are discussing its behaviour in the game...

[wild ocean]

When you learn how to understand english and context, let me know. Otherwise, this conversation is going nowhere

[buoyant peak]

And here I thought people younger than 13 years old were not allowed in discord...

"No no you wrong I not lololol"

[real nebula]

Easy now

[wild ocean]

Sick "you must be a child because I don't like your argument" joke adult

[buoyant peak]

I only answered to be called out on not "understanding english".

Not unexpected to responde rudeness with rudeness

[subtle parrot]

https://tenor.com/view/300-spartans-shield-defense-fight-in-the-shade-gif-3294390

I think there are probably many examples of gladiators and the like using spears in close combat, range/thrown is just another way to use them

[dapper pendant]

am I allowed to ask questions about modded valheim in this channel or server?

[subtle parrot]

#mods-issues or #mods-discussion

[woeful wind]

does anyone have a forge that can repair carapace armour that wouldnt mind letting me use it for like 3 seconds ?

[subtle parrot]

You don't have a black forge?

[woeful wind]

unfortunately i lost my old server and forgot to back it up, trying to get back to where i was in the game so i guess im just looking for the easy way out

[loud linden]

Pretty sure you can't craft carapace armour without a Black Forge, so...

[subtle parrot]

Enable commands and use those to get back go where you were, at least as far as equipment goes

[subtle parrot]

Oh lol been a minute since I made any carapace, I thought they were on the black forge

[loud linden]

To paraphrase the Urban Cookie Collective, "You have the key, you have the secret."

[steel glacier]

Mod to let forge and kiln to spit out output straight to nearest boxes?

[subtle parrot]

#mods-discussion

[frank storm]

I have a question, does the developer play his own game? I feel like he doesn't, so he would have realized that he needs to nerf the archers.

[woeful wind]

ok thanks for the advice, id rather not do any mods. ill just do it the old fasion way lol

[subtle parrot]

All the devs play the game

[frank storm]

I don't think so, to be honest.

[subtle parrot]

And the archers are easy to kill

They literally do no matter what you think lol

[quasi vault]

archers can also be easily rendered pretty much irrelevent with a root harnesk

[frank storm]

Of course it's easy when they shoot from behind.

[quasi vault]

or by just walking at any angle that isn't in a straight line away or towards t hem

[subtle parrot]

Don't run away and you won't get shot in the back? It's unfortunate you died but no, the archers don't need a nerf at all

[loud linden]

That comment is equal parts scary-drill-sergeant and totally-logical-third-party. I love it! lol

[silver storm]

Is there any command to get your stuff back or getting to last save or something?

Cuz my stuff are like 1000miles from my base

[echo sparrow]

you can restore one of the regular back up saves in the main menu, but you will potentially lose a good deal of progress (should be able to gauge by save date)

alternatively, you can use commands to make yourself invincible then fly there

[subtle parrot]

Character saves are separate from world saves, so if you restore a character save from before you died so far away then you'll have your equipment and stuff back. Otherwise, what archon said

[random comet]

I cannot craft

[tame wigeon]

I'm a little confused, sorry. Couple of questions.

1. How do Iget the Bog Witch to sell all the items? (I have beaten all the bosses except Fader).
2. How do I see the ingredients required for the Feast recipes? (I only see the two feasts while the Serving Tray is equipped, no ingredients though)

[random comet]

I cannot craft from ANY crafting tables post update. I will have all the materials in inventory, inventory space, the crafting sound will be made. But that's it. My crafting level is 6 if that has anything to do with it. Almost all my mods were updated with this update and I use very few. Someone please help! I can't repair gear either. Once and item breaks I have no way to get it back. It's with cooking too. EVERYTHING IS BROKEN

Very few mods as you can see

[real nebula]

1. You'd only need Fader and a serpent to unlock all her items if memory serves right
2. You need to have crafted the other ingredients for the feasts as well, which includes multiple prepared foodstuffs. Easiest way would be to cook/prepare one of everything

[real nebula]

Bog witch included a unity engine upgrade, please refer to #mods-issues or disable all mods, main help channels are only for vanilla game support

[frail cave]

(serpents didn't have a global key before this update, so your previous kills weren't tracked)

[tame wigeon]

Ah. Well that explains that.
So, if I understand you corr3ectly, I need to cook in the Cauldron (all the component food) then use the Tray to "combinie" and place it (i.e. 'craft' it). (?) 🙂
And thank you, kindly.

[real nebula]

Ooh true, you need to have killed a serpent after updating the game, yes

[real nebula]

You craft the feasts themselves in the new food preparation table

[tame wigeon]

Serpent kills: easy enough. Father, a bit ofa trek and adventure, but do-able.

@real nebula It all makes ssense when someone else explains the obvious LOL! Thankyou, Scarlet.

[real nebula]

Cheers, and good luck!

[echo sparrow]

almost all mods will always break something on update, many probs will take at least a few days to update, try running an entire vanilla version of new update first

[random comet]

6 of the 9 were updated. I would lose hours of progress, not to mention many tames

[pliant tide]

I can't find the new npc at already explored swamps, right?

[frail cave]

yea, has to be untouched areas

[random comet]

You can easily get the world upgrade mod so that she spawns in already explored areas

[frail cave]

might as well just spawn the camp in at that point

[random comet]

Why? You still have to find her

[frail cave]

no 😅 traders are automatically marked on your map the moment they spawn

[random comet]

They don't register as spawned

Not until you go back over the ground that they are now in

[frail cave]

that seems risky to player-made changes

[echo sparrow]

@random comet unless your mods are adding actual objects/equipment--which, if so, I think you'll lose that--then you should be able to save and log out as normal, pull the mods out, then load up the same save and have it function the same as if there never were mods (but progress/what was done, still there)

[random comet]

But now you don't have to boat halfway across the country

[frail cave]

more exploration never hurts

[scenic sphinx]

Any way to get seeds out of crops? i feel it's a bit silly that you can't cycle them..

[echo sparrow]

if you mean thouh for some reason you're stuck with using these mods, then I don't really know what other option you have but to either go without crafting (if you can repair at least that's maybe playable in some sense) or wait until all the mods are updated (assuming they are what's causing the problem--IME they're one of the main culprits of issues when an update happens, esp with crafting)

[random comet]

Most people use it, it's one of the most popular mods out there. But ehh, suit yourself. I'm not here to argue

[quasi vault]

Yes, once you pick up carrots for exemple you can replant the carrot for seed carrots which will give you 3 seeds for 1 carrot

[weak temple]

Does smoke travel through iron floors yet?

[random comet]

I will try as it is only NPC's that I would lose. No structures or gear. But still will be annoyed if they vanish, as they take a half hour to tame each >.>

[frail cave]

nope

[echo sparrow]

they probs WILL vanish

@random comet since I assume they're mod-added assets, unless it saves their info somewhere that is referenced when you put the mod back

[silver storm]

What are the commands to be invisible and FLY

[true steeple]

ghost and fly
Enemies won’t detect you while flying even with ghost disabled

[echo sparrow]

which, I HAVE seen (for instance Randyknapp Equipment & Quickslot, I "lost" equipment in the slots if I removed the mod, but if I put it back, the equipment would be back in those slots it added), so maybe not

[frail cave]

fly is the command to fly
debugmode adds a keybind to toggle fly (Z)
but note that fly automatically makes you invincible and impossible to detect
(also neither fly nor ghost will make you literally invisible, but enemies won't be able to spot you, even if you hit them)

[echo sparrow]

(by remove, I mean cut paste the files from the game folder to desktop and vice versa)

[silver storm]

So i just press enter and say /fly?

[frail cave]

gotta do it in the F5 console

(which doesn't require a / before commands)

if pressing F5 does nothing, open valheim's properties on steam and add "-console" to the launch options

if you're not on steam, the wiki page knows how to do it https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console

and since fly is a devcommand, it needs those enabled.
sooo either
devcommands enter
fly enter
or
devcommands enter
debugmode enter
then close the console and press Z

[random comet]

Found out the issue is All Tamabables Mod

Was able to take that out and keep everything else

[scenic sphinx]

Thoughts on this armor in comparison to iron

[echo sparrow]

most people seem to prefer it

[frail cave]

being light armor, its defense is considerably lower, but its movement speed higher and it gets special bonus effects, unlike metal armor which is usually just defense

[echo sparrow]

at the least, specifically that piece (pierce resistance)

[mellow lodge]

pierce resist is OP

[frail cave]

the root mask gives 50% poison resistance (doesn't stack with the 75% poison mead)
the root harnesk gives 50% pierce resistance
all 3 together give +15 bows levels

[echo sparrow]

even if you do iron, i'd probably STILL skip the chest piece for the root harknesk

[frail cave]

do note the 50% weakness to fire damage
(later on that can be negated with a 50% fire res wine. since resistances don't stack, the wine doesn't just even it out to 0% but replaces the weakness with a resistance)

[echo sparrow]

on balance, more useful--less mov speed loss too

[mellow lodge]

i still use root harnesk in mistlands

that's how good pierce resist is

[frail cave]

but yea, a resistance to pierce goes a long way, that chestpiece is still relevant in the endgame depending on what you're fighting

[echo sparrow]

isn't it like a 50% reduction

[frail cave]

yepp, before armor is applied

[mellow lodge]

before armor is huge

[scenic sphinx]

Should i farm it before fighting swamp boss or just stick to iron +1?

[frail cave]

if you already have iron armor, i'd stick to it at least for bonemass, since none of root armor's unique effects benefit you in that fight (assuming you're drinking a poison res mead anyway)

[scenic sphinx]

yeah i have poison res

[frail cave]

it doesn't deal any pierce damage (only its adds might)
and bows are terrible against it so the set bonus isn't useful either

[echo sparrow]

yeah i don't recall how much of bonemass attacks pierece, but your best bet on bosses generally is dodge rolling or just moving to avoid attacks usually anyway

[frail cave]

its only physical damage is blunt

[echo sparrow]

there ya go

oh lol, that was the "it" you were referencing before

[frail cave]

i try to stop using "he" because it doesn't make much sense
but you're right it does get confusing because we're for some reason all just used to that

[echo sparrow]

loloolol

bonemass might have SEVERAL parts mixed up somewhere in there, for all we know

[frail cave]

oh we know it does

[mellow lodge]

root harnesk shines in the plains

deathsquitos and spear goblins

[frail cave]

also mistlands, ||ticks||, ||dvergr rogues|| and ||seekers||

[true steeple]

It works very well against Fader too

[mellow lodge]

root harnesk might be the piece of equipment that over achieves the most

swamp tier item that is good against current end game boss

[true steeple]

Serpent scale shield is obtained at the same time and useful against all the same attacks too

[echo sparrow]

root harnesk or frostner?

[mellow lodge]

i think root harnesk. but it's close

[echo sparrow]

probs, if only because things like mistwalker come along that provide the mix of frost & slow plus decent damage later

[halcyon crag]

Frostner is valid for 4 biomes, 5 if you get it early

[echo sparrow]

more able to substitute that

[steep tusk]

Obligatory poke about saying Frostner is valid because I am me.

[quasi vault]

Megingjord

[mellow lodge]

yeah, strength belt also over performs

[steep tusk]

Belt is very good 👍

[quasi vault]

And if we're speaking of overachieving the wood arrows need to be in the conversation

[halcyon crag]

bbbbut they weren't the given options

[frosty frost]

I think that hammer is the one that overachieves the most 😄

[halcyon crag]

at least in Archon's question

[echo sparrow]

I only build wood arrows, until I get needles with nothing better to do with

[halcyon crag]

Eikthyr power is also a massive over achiever

[halcyon crag]

if you discount the annoyance of constant repairs

[steep tusk]

Elder Power is probably the most under-achieving.

[frosty frost]

Well you use it in literally every biome 😄 that more than balances out any annoyence with repairs imo

[quasi vault]

Elder power is the most under-used/appreciated

[real nebula]

https://tenor.com/view/snoopy-cleaning-wiping-mapping-dusting-gif-15804698

[steep tusk]

I would say Scarlet is my new favorite person, but Smiffe will hold that title for a good while longer.

[quasi vault]

Forgot the rule that you should not make people realize that they have double standard because that can make them uncomfortable

[real nebula]

Moreso just cleaning up after banning a spammer

Anyways, y'all move on

[scarlet girder]

Could someone give me a short resume about clubs/swords/axes in the game? Which ones are better for me/better damage overall (just defeated Moder, going to Plains now, im using frostner, great weapon so far)

[willow jungle]

How accurate is the website ||https://valheim-map.world||? I am using it to find ||Frost Caves||, cuz without I simply can't find them. But now I can't find a ||Frost Cave|| that has been marked on the map of the website

[steep tusk]

Damage is within 2 DPS between all of them.

So play with the one you, personally, like the feel of.

[frosty frost]

Overall they are somewhat equal, maybe slight lead for maces followed by swords and then axes, but overall pretty equal

[true steeple]

Has the website been updated for bog witch?

[patent timber]

anyone else experiencing a problem with their character always moving? even when standing still they are veeeeeeeeeeery slowly moving in one direction

[scarlet girder]

Find the trader npc woman, she Will Mark your map for Frost caves

[halcyon crag]

@solid glen

[true steeple]

She marks howling caverns, which are not frost caves. They are the hildir quest location.

[willow jungle]

No idea, first time I am using it

After hours and hours of walking circles in different mountain biomes, and only being able to find 1

[true steeple]

It probably hasn’t been updated, it’s always been accurate to me

[halcyon crag]

the guy i just @ 'ed keeps it updated

[steep tusk]

Did you upload your files directly or did you just type in the seed?

[willow jungle]

Seed

[steep tusk]

That's the problem.

[mellow lodge]

controller?

[willow jungle]

Oh, where do I find the files? My save file is in the Steam Cloud

[true steeple]

When an update has happened recently, you can upload the files to get accurate locations. After the website is updated you can use the seed

[patent timber]

oh my god yes, it was plugged in and i didnt realise. thanks 😂

[halcyon crag]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\NUMERICSTEAMID\892970\remote (typically)

but the easier method is to just look up the save in the ingame section and restore it/upload from there

[willow jungle]

[Move to local]?

[halcyon crag]

if it's for the map tool just copy paste into it

[willow jungle]

How do I copy paste from Valheim?

[willow jungle]

I don't have [remote] at the end of that path

[halcyon crag]

either write it down or move to local and follow this path C:\Users\Username\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\worlds_local

[willow jungle]

Found it. The [Data Base File] or [FWL File]?

[halcyon crag]

the db file

[willow jungle]

Ah, it looks a lot different now with the positions of the ||Frost Caves||. I trust this will help me further. Thanks a lot! @halcyon crag @true steeple

[blazing plinth]

Can anyone help me ? i got a problem when i try to create a new character it just does a puff and disappear

[mellow lodge]

Does barley require more spacing then carrots/turnips/onions?

[steep tusk]

Nope.

[mellow lodge]

Hmm

[steep tusk]

Distance is still measured just from the middle point iirc.

You can plant it to where the sides are almost touching and it's fine.

[mellow lodge]

Using the same planting method I’ve used for carrots/turbips/onions im getting some brown barley from being too close to others. I’ll need to experiment more.

[steep tusk]

I just walk sideways 🤷‍♂️

[blazing plinth]

nvm fixed

[echo sparrow]

just looks like it does cuz model so bushy

[frosty frost]

All crops need the same ammount of space iirc

was it 2m?

or 1,5 maybe? dont quite remember

[echo sparrow]

apparenty it's all the same 1m, except magecaps which need 1.6m just to make it impossible to make a perfectly even farm I guess--per wiki at least https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Cultivator

[mellow lodge]

good to know, thanks guys

[steep tusk]

1.49568231m 😉 😛

[mellow lodge]

i'm sure it's just PEBKAC

[civic nexus]

Is the steam version of valheim supported on m-series macs?

[mellow lodge]

yes. i'm running it on m1max and m3

[trail valve]

I cant play more than 10 minutes without crashing

any help?

[molten mountain]

do you have any mods? FPS or other performance problems?

[trail valve]

No

Ive never crashed in this game until bog witch so im sure im just screwed till a patch

[civic nexus]

Its not even launching for me

I get the splash screens and it crashes before reaching main menu

[mellow lodge]

i'm playing right now on m1max. was fine on macos 15, and now on 15.1

[civic nexus]

It just worked out of the box for you?

[mellow lodge]

yes. maybe discuss your problems in #mac-bugs-discussion

there might be some logging you can share with devs

[trail valve]

Can i please get help with this crashing issue

I literally cant do anything without it just crashing

[nimble eagle]

how do i unlock seafarers hearbs from bog witch?

[thorn spire]

kill a serpent

[frail cave]

by killing a serpent.
note that serpents didn't have a global key before this update, so previous kills didn't count

[nimble eagle]

thank you!

[versed moss]

Does the Scythe not work on Mistland Crops?

[true steeple]

No, it doesn’t

[frail cave]

which is probably a bug...hopefully

[versed moss]

well that's inconvient lol

[gentle drum]

Hey so just curios about serpent spawns, from my understanding and according to the wiki it says they should only spawn at night or during a storm. But i just had one spawn in the middle of the day clear weather

[true steeple]

Serpents spawned by a storm don’t despawn, so you can find them later in clear weather

[gusty prairie]

How do you place the new feasts ?

[gentle drum]

ohhh ok thats what it was then

[true steeple]

Buy a serving tray from the bog witch

[gusty prairie]

I thought so

It’s not working

[true steeple]

What’s not working?

[gusty prairie]

I have the new meal in my inventory with the plate in my hand and it doesn’t show up on the plate or any way to put it down. I used the older meals and they work just fine but this one doesn’t even show up.

It is level one do you have to level it up somehow?

[true steeple]

Are you looking in the right tab of the serving tray’s building menu?

[gusty prairie]

😂 I didn’t even see that at the top

[true steeple]

It happened to someone else earlier today

[gusty prairie]

Thank You!

[green tide]

what does community server mean

[frail cave]

that makes your server show up on the in-game public server list, though it also requires a password, so it doesn't mean people can just randomly join you from that list, they still gotta know the password

[green tide]

thank you

[exotic hinge]

I'm not sure how I would test this so I thought I'd just ask; does anyone know if the crafting/cooking skill experience accounts for the new Shift + Craft 5x crafting? Like do I get the same amount of XP cooking 5 dishes individually vs cooking in batches of 5?

[frail cave]

i was told by a dev it accounts for it, but i haven't tested it myself yet, should be easy

[steep tusk]

ResetSkill 0
Craft 1 by 1 until level up.
ResetSkill 0
Craft by 5's until level up.

Compare numbers.

[frail cave]

that's what i'm about to do

[exotic hinge]

Oh, I didn't think to try that, I was looking for ways to see the point values or something

[frail cave]

it does account for it

im gonna test the double craft chance while i'm at it, heard from someone else that it seems to have the same chance but only do 1 extra instead of 5

[weak temple]

Is there a way to hide the hud with console commands?

[real nebula]

I did 5x on the 20x obsidian arrow craft and it gave me one extra arrow

not 20 more, not 100 more, one

it was very funny~

[frail cave]

excuse me

i'm not surprised that they still accidentally found a way to make this QoL feature less worth than the manual way

coupled with the fact that x5 crafting seems to take at least almost the same time as 5 separate crafts, i think i'm just gonna keep crafting 1 by 1 😅

[exotic hinge]

I was going to write a AHK script with timing for just that before the patch dropped.
Macros arn't against the Discord rules is it?

[frail cave]

oh absolutely not, i use some myself

[frail cave]

oh sorry, not with commands, just ctrl+F3

if you mean to avoid getting up, you can use freefly to disable your inputs and then use ctrl+F3 to disable HUD without getting up

...wait that's only a problem for me, no normal person has guard bound to ctrl

[weak temple]

Is there a way to change that bind?

[frail cave]

don't think there is

[weak temple]

ok. Its just that I have Outplayed and thats the same bind to record a clip so whenever I hit ctrl+f3 it activates the overlay and does nothing in game

[frail cave]

you can probably change that keybind but i'm gonna assume you're too used to it, in which case yea that sucks 😅

[exotic hinge]

I've been using AHK for multiple bindings. Like instead of hitting my middle mouse button for mass dismantling, I hit "H" instead. I still use middle mouse for individual deconstructs, but when destroying a whole building, the key press is better

I'm assuming the game dosn't allow for multiple bindings per function

[weak temple]

Can you scroll up in the console in game?

[frail cave]

i thiiink you can with the page up and page down keys?

[midnight lily]

Technically using discord to discuss automating games is against the discord ToS, but the only place that cares is the AHK discord

[lilac coyote]

People are allowed to not play the game if they want to. Seems weird, but it's their choice

[midnight lily]

They only really care because if they didn't have a rule against it on the AHK server, it would be 90% game script discussion, and then discord might actually shut them down, maybe

They way I see it, clicking a button 50 times slowly while staring a a crafting UI isn't the most fun way to spend my time in a game. I was using a multicraft mod before today

[lilac coyote]

Getting the game to play itself is more fun?

[midnight lily]

Slashing monsters and exploring is more fun than crafting 50 soups, yes

Actually, writing AHK scripts is fun too.

[exotic hinge]

I think there is a stark difference between automating whole game processes vs the equivalent of putting a weight down on a key when you go up to go to the bathroom. I'm am not advocating or discussing features that would circumnavigate core game play aspects. And I also agree, writting the scripts is good programming practice and gives you full control over how the script works.

[frail cave]

but either way we have iron gate's word that it's completely fine from their end. if they were against such things in a singleplayer-first game, the console wouldn't be easily accessible...and there'd probably be at least some form of anticheat for multiplayer, you can just mod your game and join other people no problem, and in many cases those mods will still work

[lilac coyote]

A lot of the dev commands exist as part of the testing process. They probably won't, but they'd be within their rights to remove them when we reach 1.0.

[exotic hinge]

For sure; if I were playing on a server, I'd either disable anything I made before playing or ask permission first, even though I don't personally view my scripts as providing a game breaking advantage. I do the same with any MineCraft server I'm on.

I've just burnt enough bread to know that my attention span is better spent not multitasking and just holding down the E button until everything is baked and collected

[midnight lily]

I was using the LazyVikings mod too, throw your dough in a box, come back to a box of bread

[tribal kernel]

Anybody know why the Lox Meat Pie no longer appears in the Cauldron since the new patch?

[exotic hinge]

It's on the food prep table

[midnight lily]

They moved it to the food prep table I assume

[steep tusk]

Anything that goes in the Oven starts on the Prep Table.

[tribal kernel]

Ah, okay, thanks! 🙂

[midnight lily]

cauldron was getting cluttered, I'm happy they split it up

[exotic hinge]

Very smart, a good solution in lui of advance UI mechanics like adding categories; the forge could use a similar treatment

[steep tusk]

Forge already has one.
It's called the Black Forge.

[exotic hinge]

Havn't gotten that far yet, I think it's coming up next, I'll look forward to it

[steep tusk]

Everything pre-Mist is normal Forge.
Mist+ is Black.

[tribal kernel]

Mistlands was the biggest difficulty spike for me apart from Swamps, so good luck! I haven't got to Ashlands yet though

[exotic hinge]

Oh, that does remind me of a question I wanted to ask with minimal spoilers:
I know the one race of creatures are passive until you piss them off, I wanted to know without looking up all the information is if you agro say a single fort, will you agro the whole race or just the ones local to that general area?

Because I'm under the impression that aside from exploits or unintended methods, I need to get some resources from at least one of these locations to advance the tech tree

[tribal kernel]

If you're talking about Mistlands, it's just the local ones in that fort

But they're definitely quite challenging to deal with, so I recommend being prepared as best as you can be

[exotic hinge]

Good good, I can work with this

[steep tusk]

Dverger aggro is always local.

But there are also ways to just never aggro them and still get the stuff.

[tribal kernel]

Also, their forts make good bases IMO so build a stonecutting workbench to repair one to save yourself the trouble of building a base

[midnight lily]

I'm sure they'd relish a good game of bumper-carts

[exotic hinge]

Ohhhh... I think I see

I thought you would use a troll

[tribal kernel]

I always feel a bit guilty killing dverger because they're always so friendly

[exotic hinge]

I'm all for the pacifist route when it's allowed and makes sense

[exotic hinge]

This exactly

[steep tusk]

Build a cart, find one of their mining sites, run the cart over the crate to damage it.
Doesn't count as hostile and will still get you the drop you need.

im running into the inability to connect to a deticated remote server. I confirmed the server is running and others that share the same rev 0.219.14 is live on all clients. after entering the server password im unable to connect due to compatability issues. any one else run into this?

[steep tusk]

Uncooked food will be prepped at the prep table now, mead bases will be in the mead ketill now.

There no longer all located in the cauldron

[tribal kernel]

This definitely makes me feel like I need a bigger house lol. It's already so cramped but I can't build any higher because of structural integrity

[exotic hinge]

I used hearths to fit multiple stations

So I really liked the black metal sword. But my Club skill is 50, my sword skill is 10. Is worth up my swords skills? I believe keeping the club will be way better since they seems to be similar in damage and would take a lot of time for my sword skills goes into 50

[exotic hinge]

I'm not sure how the min-max math works out, but if you're just looking for personal input, I'd say the benefits from weapon proficiency skills, while a benefit, are not substantial enough to reasonably limit your weapon set

[midnight lily]

Carry both, use the sword for low level fights and fall back to the higher damage weapon when you are really challenged

[scarlet girder]

I mean, isn't there a huge difference in damage between sword 10 skill and club 50 skill? I prefer the sword since it's cooler but makes no sense make the change for the time it would take for my sword skill goes better right?

[midnight lily]

The yellow numbers after the weapon damage stat show you your damage min and max at your current skill, that's the best way to compare weapons from different skill categories

[exotic hinge]

Also, there is the fact that certain enemies are weaker to types of damage. You're club is great against ozes and blobs, but not as ideal against I think Abominations and a few other enemies. Diversification has its benifits even if we ignore the skill levels

[turbid oak]

Imo, I see no real difference in high combat skills vs lower combat skills.

I see more change between movement skills. Running, Jumping, etc..

Just use what ever you feel like using. Using swords from Plains onwards is gonna get the sword skill up to the 50s in no time.

[steep tusk]

Skills are just free stats.

And if you switch to something you like better, you will inherently level it pretty quickly.

How do you find the queen summoning area? I went to where it was marked on my map from a runsestone and its just a dvergr tower. Ive had a look around and couldnt really find anything else

[steep tusk]

Did the tower have a massive sealed door?

[bronze socket]

Its just the standard dvergr guard tower

Am I just in the wrong area? as in height level?

[steep tusk]

Show the map screenshot?

[mellow yarrow]

what do i place feasts on

[mellow lodge]

Most people would put food on a table

[mellow yarrow]

probably

i was referring to the serving tray but i figured it out

[bronze socket]

This is the map screenshot

Im not there now but in the previous screenshot i was standing on The Queen marker

[whole socket]

Fyi several xbox people are having their powers go off all the time, over and over again. It never stops.
Also I get notices for things that need refills even when I didn't click on them, but rather just walked past them. (Like getting notices of "you have no resin") after passing a torch.

Also fly mode in console commands (xbox) instantly forces the player into a raise position and you have to hit raise twice to make it stop. This is not normal.

[bronze socket]

Can anyone provide insight for my issue?

[frail cave]

POIs in unexplored areas get shuffled with every update that intentionally changes worldgen, but since boss markers are a thing on your character rather than the world, ones you already have don't move. interact with any vegvisir again to get an updated location, this spot would have had the queen 1 or more updates ago

[bronze socket]

Thanks, will do

[gloomy edge]

nvm

[compact heath]

Winter to the rescue, thats the answer

[broken warren]

Did something happen with building stability and the last update? All building pieces are blue and there is no functioning stability

[frosty frost]

The stability worked just fine for me yesterday

[molten mountain]

if it's a very large build, it might just be taking a while to recalculate

[wild ocean]

I'm not sure if this is just me interpreting it wrong, but I believe the yellow damage has to do with a particular enemy's weakness. If it's white or grey, it's either normal damage or resistant

[steep tusk]

Yellow = Weak
White = Normal
Grey = Resistant

[steep tusk]

But in what you're replying to, he's talking about the forced arbitrary damage RNG.
Your weapon doesn't do 28 damage, it does 26-30 "because reasons."
So in the tooltip this is denoted by the yellow numbers.
Tooltip, not the floating numbers after you do damage.

[wild ocean]

Lmao because reasons. Ok, so it was me misunderstanding. Got it

[steep tusk]

I have a strong disdain for forced arbitrary damage rng.

[spring frigate]

dose ashwood gets damaged by rain?

[strong forge]

Haven't tried the Ashwood rain damage part but if you simply lay a floor time anywhere and wait a bit, your question answers itself

[spring frigate]

i did just that and scared off any rain that was possibly comming to me -.-
oh nvm it just started to rain

[strong forge]

So, you have found out that putting an ashwood floor-tile with no roof above it will take weather-damage ?

I guess that answers your question

[cursive dew]

Damage is kinda confusing, for my weapon it says slash 60 (28-46??) but when I attack something its like 63 damage (white numbers)

[frail cave]

is slash the only damage in its tool tip?

[steep tusk]

Screenshot of the sword weapon tooltip?

[cursive dew]

It's the flesh ripper

[spring frigate]

yup it dose, and its damaged

[frail cave]

oh, a fist weapon, that gets confusing because their combo only has two swings, both of which look almost identical, but the second has a x2 damage multiplier

[steep tusk]

If you put a screenshot up we can circle and describe the exact stuff going on.

[frail cave]

every combo finisher has more damage than the previous swing, and most secondary attack act the same

[frail cave]

yea that's normal, every second swing should have a range of 56-92 for you

[steep tusk]

-# So then what is the point of the 60?

[cursive dew]

That's nice then, I might try to get the seccond attack more times

[frail cave]

a base number

[strong forge]

It seems to be the optimised number of potential output

[frail cave]

there's always a tradeoff. i think in fists' case it doesn't actually deal more damage, just has a higher stagger multiplier (and it's almost always slower than the regular attacks)

[strong forge]

So, if your thing on upgrade-1 does 10 base damage, on upgrade level2 does 20 base damage, that is one thing

I do agree that a "base=60" does not correlate to the range of "28-46"

[frail cave]

since the latter adapts with skill, i think it's important to have a number that doesn't change

[strong forge]

We should hit something for tops 46 on your weapon, not for 60, which is advertised in the tooltip

[thorn spire]

Base =60 should read max =60 since that’s the maximum damage you can get

[cursive dew]

Probably the confusion is that the base number is higher than what you get unless you're certain skill level, base should be based on skill level 1 in my opinion

[strong forge]

Then again, Yer olde Moonwitch is perfectly accurate with the statement that the actual skill is an important factor in this calculation

[steep tusk]

Oh if we start down the path of what tooltips should say this discussion won't have an end 😄
