[spare ravine]

I seem to gain exp much faster than by using the scythe though

[vale ether]

Yipeee!!!

also does Bog witch have anything usefull pre moder?

[subtle parrot]

Some ingredients and other bits

[vale ether]

okie i just can't seem to find her

[radiant crane]

So I just got to swamp, I have full (as much as I can) upgraded troll armor and a mace. Should I be bringing a upgraded buckler, cause I’m getting wrecked

[subtle parrot]

Yeh the traders are hard to find sometimes, on one of my previous playthroughs haldor wasn't even close to spawn at any of his locations, I had to go to a seed viewer site and found he was mostly way out towards mistlands and almost DN. Sometimes they're in very inconvenient locations lol

[vale ether]

yah so you can parry

[real nebula]

just tested it real quick, resetting the farming skill before each round, it takes the same amount of actions to level up from Farming 0 to 1 whether you plant 4 crops, pick up 4 crops manually, or scythe 4 crops

[subtle parrot]

Dodge roll

[spare ravine]

so yeah, if I want to level up farming, better pick them crops by hand

[radiant crane]

Roll feels kinda clunky

[true steeple]

Jumping is better than rolling for any attack that can be jumped over

[real nebula]

No, I'm saying that the scythe gives the same amount of xp as picking by hand

the only variable that matters is number of crops

[spare ravine]

you said its by action tho

[vale ether]

auuugh where is sheee

[radiant crane]

I wish crops had a grid or a red/green for too close or not

[spare ravine]

if I pick 100 crops by hand, or if I scythe 10 at a time, will I get the same exp?

[real nebula]

lemme rephrase then: a single action to scythe 4 crops gives the same amount of experience as picking up 4 crops manually

[real nebula]

correct

[green bolt]

do a barrel roll

[spare ravine]

that doesnt seem to be right from what Ive seen though

Ill have to try again next time I have a barley yield

[subtle parrot]

Idk I've tried jumping over arrows, always seem to get shot in the leg if I jump, not sure what constitutes an attack that can be jumped over. Walking or rolling out works fine for me.

[steep tusk]

Scarlet plz. We all know the truth is secondary to what someone believes. 💛

[vale ether]

LMAO

[green bolt]

your reality isnt my reality

[steep tusk]

My reality is the only one that matters. 😉😏

[subtle parrot]

Reality is reality

[steep tusk]

You'd think that, but once you step through the Unity everything changes.

[spare ravine]

Aw cmon now, I just tried something and what ive seen doesnt correlate what Scarlet is saying. Don't go and say how I live in an altered reality now. That's just insulting.

[subtle parrot]

Ok starborn lol

[spare ravine]

I said im going to try again.

[real nebula]

I did only try farming level 1 and 2 (0 to 2 takes 12 xp, can either be scythed crops or manually picked up)

i believe bonus drops will not count for extra xp, that might be the variance you're seeing?

[true steeple]

Most melee attacks from enemies that aren't significantly taller than the player (so charred warriors and draugr are ok, but not trolls and fuling berserkers, for example) can be jumped over

[subtle parrot]

Interesting

[spare ravine]

nah, I feel like it was more than that. I had a densely packed field and I gave it one or two swipe and I barely saw the red exp bar move. Then I picked up a bunch of barley and it moved much more.

[green bolt]

apologies, there was no mean intention behind this i promise

[spare ravine]

But like I said, im going to try again, see how it work

[steep tusk]

The xp bar is red???

[true steeple]

The smaller bar to show how close you are to the next level is

[steep tusk]

Orange.

[subtle parrot]

It's red

[spare ravine]

right, orange
Its very important

[steep tusk]

🟠 =/= 🔴

[spare ravine]

yes you are right

did you know green and magenta are also different colours

[vale ether]

3 hour adventure no bog witch

maybe tomorrow,,,

[steep tusk]

Did you know mods affect things so if yours was literally red and it was due to mods that's a very important thing to clarify before getting into "my experience is different" discussions?

Hence yes, it matters when something like "it is <insert wrong color>" is said, so we clarify.

[spare ravine]

im not using mods
I was talking about the exp bar. Orange is close to red in wavelenghts or whatever. And if you want to clarify, you can do it without being sarcastic about it.

[vale ether]

my exp bar is green :3

i ate too many carrots

[subtle parrot]

Looks red to me, probably just different eyes seeing different shades

[spare ravine]

ffs

[subtle parrot]

As I can't even use mods on xbox

[vale ether]

mine is orange

[real nebula]

the color of the xp bar shouldn't be terribly important--

[vale ether]

slightly red

[subtle parrot]

It isn't lol

[steep tusk]

You can do it without

It's like you've never spoken to me before. 😂😂😂

[steep tusk]

Shouldn't be. But if "oh by the way I have mods" is dropped this late into a discussion it is always a massive pain in the eyes trying to roll them back into position.

[steep tusk]

That poor kitten 😭

ya

[vale ether]

I'll try to tomorrow to find the bog witch but I'm going insane

I just want the serving tray man 😭

[lilac chasm]

why is my chicken not eating 😭

[steep tusk]

Why is your chicken trapped?

[lilac chasm]

gonna slave all their descendant

[vale ether]

There's CHICKENS

[steep tusk]

That's.. cruel.

[lilac chasm]

they are hen already

[steep tusk]

You have to kill Yagluth.

[vale ether]

HUH SINC WHEN WAS THETE CHICKENS

[steep tusk]

Since the Mistlands update over a year ago.

[lilac chasm]

so

[vale ether]

Nvm... That's after Plains. I haven't played past mistlands

[lilac chasm]

why are they not eating 😭

[vale ether]

I haven't played past plains*

[steep tusk]

Probably because they know they deserve better than being trapped.

[vale ether]

Give them a better house you monster

[lilac chasm]

no.

[vale ether]

🤷‍♂️

[steep chasm]

guys, i literally have a brain f..t - whats the real stamina usage on blocking with shield? Stamina wiki page says its 30 * (used block power / maximum block power) - with whatever the block power is..? and Blocking subpage says "Successfully blocking requires up to 10 stamina (proportional to the leftover damage value after the reduction of step one)." so which one is true?

[tropic granite]

Simple blocking drains up to 10, depending on how much damage you block, parrying always drains 20, I've never seen anything else

[steep chasm]

how is that 10 calculated?

[true steeple]

If the description on the blocking page is correct, it’s from the percentage of damage reduced by block armor (so 100 damage reduced to 30 would cost 7)

[brazen patrol]

Is there any way to stop the rain ?

[true steeple]

A shield generator works

[frail cave]

guys i played this game with friends right after release when it had its hype. I remember it was 6 or 7 bosses back then and you couldnt travel with ore. How much updates came since then? How many bosses? content? Changes? Any help?

and what do you think how much playtime would i have singleplayer finishing this game

[empty heart]

Hello , i dont know if it is the right place to ask this, but i would like to know what is the best site to host servers , ive tried shockbyte and it wasnt good

[true steeple]

At release there were five biomes and bosses, there are now seven (+mistlands and ashlands), with one more to be added before full release (deep north). Hearth and home, hildir’s request and the bog witch are smaller updates that have released within that time. In ashlands, you can build a stone portal to teleport metal, or you can change a world modifier to allow wood portals to teleport everything too.

[frail cave]

also frost caves! my favourite~

separate from those updates, there are now also armour stands and a new enemy in the swamps

[frail cave]

how much time would i spend before finishing it solo

20? 50? 100?

oh that varies heavily and depends on how slow or fast you go

i'm waaaay on the slow and relaxed side of the spectrum so i can't give a good estimate 😅

[worldly yarrow]

Does anyone know how to hit on a lox?

[frail cave]

a tamed one or a just a wild one?

[worldly yarrow]

a tamed one

i saw a video where someone was farming wood with a lox

[frail cave]

turn on friendly fire in the top right of your inventory or use a butcher's knife made from tin

[frail cave]

like if i like to progress slowly, build and prepare for fights and such
maybe even build mutiple nice bases etc

just the scale
do we talk about 50 hours or 500

how big is that game

[frail cave]

oh wait you mean attacking while riding? they deal damage to everything around them while going at a certain speed or higher, sprinting guarantees this

[worldly yarrow]

oh alright thanks

are you unable to hit while riding a lox?

[frail cave]

hmmmmm gosh, i'd guess around 100-200? i could be very off 😅

[frail cave]

yea

[steep chasm]

can you elaborate where did that 7 come from? is my understanding right that if 100 dmg would be reduced to 10, then it will cost 9 stamina?

so 50 dmg reduced to 5 will also be 9 stamina?

if yes then it will make no sense - i was blocking skeletons that dealt ~20-25dmg with 100 armor and had lost only 1-2 stamina

100 armor on block ofc

[true steeple]

That’s what I’m thinking.. I’ll test some stuff.
It’s probably the percentage of damage that isn’t reduced, not what is reduced.

So 100 damage reduced to 30 damage would cost 3 stamina, not 7

[steep chasm]

yeah i think so

and 100 -> 10 = 1

would make more sense

[true steeple]

I just misread it and didn't think hard enough about it

[steep chasm]

but after calc it still makes no sense -> on my real example, 100 armor and 20 hit = 2 stamina taken, but should be (20 dmg / (4 * 100 armor)) * 20dmg = 1 , and 1 / 20 is 0.5 not 2 :/

[slow orchid]

why do charred warriors just randomly deaggro and run away?

[true steeple]

Enemies lose aggro if they haven't been able to attack for a certain amount of time. Are you letting these warriors attack you?

[slow orchid]

ah thats probably it. im playing a mage and am being very evasive

[prime quest]

Wich Shield is actually the best one now for parrying after the update?

[true steeple]

Carapace buckler has the most armor when parrying

[frozen mango]

anyone got a fix for a bug where a player isnt able to sleep in their bed at all, cant even interact with ships and stuff, they just stand on top of it, verified gamefiles, tried claiming another bed, alsorts. it now spawns them at the world spawn and wont let em claim a bed

[solar cave]

can i not spawn herbs with commands

[true steeple]

The materials for feasts? Their ids are 'spice' followed by the biome, for example spiceforests or spicemistlands

[solar cave]

yh

[spare ravine]

How do you progress in the ashlands?

I cant go anywhere without aggroing like 10 monters

[subtle parrot]

Run

[elfin fog]

Why cannt i caft it?

i got the fish and i got the berries

[lilac coyote]

Have mead ketil?

[true steeple]

I think it needs to be three fish of the same level, I’m sure I’ve seen others with this issue

[elfin fog]

that would make sense

[trail flicker]

Did they change building pieces stability?
I have 2 columns of flamemetal and iron poles built some long time ago. Next to them some new built columns. New iron can go 2m higher. Flamemetal 10m higher. When I build something on old columns it breaks

[chilly forge]

is there any way to change the keybinding for the copy feature in build menu?

[frosty frost]

Might be mods making a mess

[frosty frost]

Wrong channel friend 🙂 #mods-issues

[south timber]

lol sorry

[frosty frost]

No worries 😄

[arctic ember]

I placed a Jack-o-turnip can I move it even though its not halloween anymore? or is it stuck where i placed it

Im afraid to try lol

[green bolt]

you can not move seasonal items out of season unfortunately

[arctic ember]

Ok so its there till next season. Np Im ok with its location was just doing some redecorating and wanted to move it to another spot but thats ok

[marble igloo]

is there a mod whith which i dont always have to click on craft and just do craft all?

[frosty frost]

#mods-discussion 🙂

[steep tusk]

Installs it.
Makes 20 Iron Swords with one click because wanted "craft all" button.

Curses maker of button because he made 20 Iron Swords with one click. 😛

[frosty frost]

Using mods is always on ones own risk 🙂

[final gale]

Does the bog witch only spawn in UNEXPLORED areas of our map? or could she be in an already-explored area?

[jovial ledge]

anyone messed with "timescale" console command? as far as I understand you can input 1,2 or 3. It "natural" timescale 2? Or 1?

[compact heath]

only unexplored

[warped iron]

Are the new Food recipes only revealed after finding the bog witch

[frail cave]

any decimals work as well. 0 for example is paused, 0.5 is half speed, 0.75 is 75% speed, etc.
default is 1, the max iirc is 4

wiki says max is 3, that might be right 😅

[frosty frost]

Will go try that, i seem to also remember 4 🤔

[trail flicker]

open the console and type devcommands, enter, then type debugmode, enter, then close the console and hit your 'b' button to enable the build everything for free mode. Now take your hammer and select jack-o-turnip and place where you want it

[frosty frost]

I feels certainly a bit faster with "timescale 4" compared to "timescale 3"

[frail cave]

oohh thank you, i'll look at it myself

[frosty frost]

about one fifth faster? maybe a quarter, i am using a timer on rested buff while counting in my head and when i am on timescale 4 while counting on the speed the 3 was going i only count to eight when timer goes by ten numbers

[frail cave]

huh, using a windmill to test, even 5 seems to be faster

but 6 is where it starts to look the same

[frosty frost]

Oh true, the 5 does go a bit faster still

[jovial ledge]

damn I thought that would change the duration of day, i.e. make the day longer or shorter.
Any commands to make the day (and night) last longer?

[frosty frost]

"tod" command can set the time permanently

[frail cave]

-# well playing at lower speeds does make the day take longer, just also everything else 😅

[jovial ledge]

I know. But I just want longer daynight cycle

[frosty frost]

no other way i am afraid

[ripe bone]

hello

[stoic trench]

Wait, you can change the length of the day/night cycle and the processing speed??

What all does include? I imagine wood burning, smelting, farming?

[frail cave]

timescale affects everything, even the UI

[ripe bone]

wiiinteerrr

[frail cave]

animations, buff speed, particles, movement speed, attack cooldowns, stamina regen, etc.

[stoic trench]

Ah, so the game moves in slow-motion?

[frail cave]

if you slow it down yea, can also speed it up

[stoic trench]

Interesting 🤔

[frail cave]

funnily enough it also affects the double click cooldown on the map.
if you're playing at a really low timescale, you can take your sweet time between clicks and it'll still register as a double-click and place down a marker

[frosty frost]

Wait, you can use timescale to slow it down?! 👀 Like using 0,5 and such?

[frail cave]

similarly, placing markers at timescale 5 is rough

[frail cave]

yepp, 0.1 is great for testing

[frosty frost]

I thought you can only speed it up XD

[frail cave]

well, some testing at least

oh, most commands that take numbers also accept decimals

[tranquil lion]

Alright... thisll sound beyond stupid. But is there any way to manuever a boat on land?

Like pushing it back into the water/

[frosty frost]

Yeah, it makes sense when i think about it now but i never really did 😄

[frail cave]

you can place walls inside the ship to clip and push it around, it's a bit finicky but it's the most efficient method i know of

[tranquil lion]

Like two objects can exist in the same space so it tries to push itself out type of deal?

[frail cave]

yepp

[steep tusk]

It's just simple Unity physics. Two objects cannot exist in the same space at the same time.

😏

[ripe bone]

hi sev

[exotic hinge]

What's the best way to draw most enemies attention to me? Say I'm hunting ||Gajjal|| and I can hear audio cues but I'm not seeing them in the ||dense fog||, what are my best options to be seen/heard so they find me rather than I find them?
Also, side question, does levelling up Sneak skill have any effect on passive perception or is it only beneficial if you are crouched and in sneak mode?

[exotic hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-republiccommando-07-sev-gif-25751708

If you don't get that reference you need to renounce the Star Wars Pun name

Brothers all

[subtle parrot]

Mine, chop trees, break things

[exotic hinge]

I should have thought of that; enemies always pester me while I work

[subtle parrot]

Indeed, they don't like it

As for the sneak, I would assume it only applies to while sneaking

[exotic hinge]

Was curious; it seemed to me that deer and boars took less notice of me later game than when I started out and I could only assume since I was not sneaking that there was a passive benifit to some degree. May just be my perception however.

[subtle parrot]

I think there's a surprise factor, like if you're fast enough to catch their back before they turn around and see you, even without being in sneak you can still get sneak attack

[exotic hinge]

Yeah, from what I could pars from speed reading the wiki; visual cone, whatever they may be, is the overiding factor over most anything, which makes sense

[subtle parrot]

Indeed

[exotic hinge]

I've spent days hunting ||Hares|| wrong, I aesthetically dislike fire attributes in most games, but I cannot deny that ||Staff of Embers|| is the superior strat. Maybe when I get to the next biome I can get a different element I prefer for vanity sake

[subtle parrot]

Yeh it's great lol

[exotic hinge]

I still love ||crossbows||, but the fact I can't keep them loaded all the time and you have to take up an additional slot for ammo and it competes for stamina which I need to run and get a clear shot on the varmits makes it a clear loser compared to the ||AoE the staff|| provides. I can have my preferenes, but it's objectivly just the better choice

[ripe bone]

if its not from any of the 9 movies i don't know them

that or a few random pieced together clone wars/rebels/mandalorian characters like pre vizsla, din djarin or ahsoka..

i can never stay dedicated to shows, except for one punch man..

[exotic hinge]

I kid, but you're missing out; if you're not into First person shooters, I'd still watch a play-through of Republic Commando. They may remaster it sometime, if they haven't already, it's a cult classic, maybe not as much as KOTOR

[ripe bone]

lemme tell you something the only reason i like star wars so much is because of light-sabers because of a relation with sword fighting 🥴

[exotic hinge]

Ah, then that probably won't be your cup of tea

[ripe bone]

I literally practiced different styles of light-saber-fighting irl

'forms' i mean, 1 through 5, the others i haven't figured out

shii cho, makashi, soresu, ataru, and djem so 😎

[exotic hinge]

I've yet to see a game other than KOTOR 2 even attempt properly integrate that. Well, I guess Outcast had fast, strong, and medium which are analogous to a few of the forms

[subtle parrot]

Trakata the only real lightsaber fighting style 😎

[exotic hinge]

I was hoping Jedi Survivor might try, but they are just focused on different lightsabe set ups, which insn't terrible, but they could go deeper

[ripe bone]

that ones real lame, i want to fight.

i cut off a broomstick and attached green electrical tape to it so it was...like a cartoon light-saber or something, and i would carry it around my property when i wasn't doing anything ✨

i am a huge fan but i am completely completely uninterested in most of the sci fi, spacefaring, shooting anything of it, i wanna see badass force users ☕

[exotic hinge]

That does remind me of one of the by the books games, I'll go look it up

It eludes me, regardless, the game was by the numbers, but the most notable part for me was when you are slaughtering Jedi in the Temple on Corosaunt, you encounter a saber instructor and have a whole battle with them, and that caracter was modeled after and maybe even mo-capped after the lead fence expert they had for the prequle trilogy. I don't think he ever got a main part in the movies, but he had a pretty cool role in the game

[crimson lotus]

any tips before i start

[ripe bone]

don't take damage, and hit him lots.

[steep tusk]

1. Silver Sword
2. More Tasty Mead. Like at least 10.
3. Don't carry food with you just in case you die (unless you have more of all 3 of those back at home).

[ripe bone]

more tasty mead indoctrination 😔

[steep tusk]

4. Put the meads on the hotbar so you don't have to open your inventory to drink them?

[ripe bone]

well i can see the frostner being okay, i only ever used the blackmetal sword.

[steep tusk]

It has been years since I have been able to see Frostner as "ok" 😭 I miss those times.

[crimson lotus]

i don't have time for silver sword, also my blunt skill 47 while sword is 0, that's why i use frostner, tasty mead i'll make more ig, and yes i have more food

[ripe bone]

i don't know what your issue is....you said something about knockback but do bosses even take knockback??

[steep tusk]

Idk. But it's use against everything else is why I dislike it.

[ripe bone]

🗿

using it recently there was nothing i had to complain about it, decent damage, slowing effect good, spirit damage against some creatures, knockback helping keep the fuling hordes away.

[steep tusk]

Where you say "helping keep away" I say "preventing me from killing."

[ripe bone]

Smaller scale fights i prefer the fang spear or black metal sword but i enjoy the survivability it aids with in worse situations

[steep tusk]

If I want knock-back, there are hammers that do a much better job.

[ripe bone]

🙅

[ripe bone]

should i go for zil and thungr in mistlands gear orrrr can i do it rn without getting destroyed

i kinda wanna do the tower before yagluth

[gritty warren]

you should be able to do it in plains gear, make sure to dodge, bring a few potions along & parry sometimes if that's possible.

[supple lily]

can a community server run 24/7 (like without the creator there)? if so, how do you create one and are you able to do god commands in it as an admin/creator?

[grand pebble]

u have to be in it so some people have a second pc or valheim instance that keeps the server up

[supple lily]

ughhh that’s terrible. and the only other option is paying a company to host the server?

[grand pebble]

yep, also u cant use dev commands in a dedicated without mods

[supple lily]

i want my friends to be able to play on our community server even when im not around

[grand pebble]

gotta pay then unfortunately

[supple lily]

thank you for you help! do you happen to have a link that explains how to enable mods for the dev commands?

[grand pebble]

do u have thunderstore?

[supple lily]

i dont know what that is

[grand pebble]

its one of the biggest mod managers thats supports mods

all u would need to do is download that, get it running, search valheim in the search bar, then select it. go to the get mods tab and type in server_devcommands, download it then go back to my mods and run the game in modded. pretty simple

[supple lily]

awesome!! thank you so much 😊

Can anyone help me with some xbox hosting for a friend to join from steam issues

[crimson lotus]

any way i can make this more cheaper xD? i used hanging brazier and some campfires to kill them

[compact heath]

lots of 2 star wolves maybe? there is also a setup that uses archers but not sure which biome your progression is at

[frosty frost]

Seems like plains 🙂 so one more biome untill the archer farm

[compact heath]

I still haven’t build the perfect one for archers yet they get hurt etc I want to make a full afk version

[tender tinsel]

can you breed wolfs with sausage?

[compact heath]

No they don’t eat that, boar or deer meat I use I think neck works too (uncooked)

[tender tinsel]

what am i suppost to do with all this sausage?

[compact heath]

If you’re solo just use it as Maintenance food in base while doing farming or cooking etc base chores maybe? If on server can hand out to people who have less or lower quality food

Also why did you cook 10000 sausages? 🤣

[tender tinsel]

do wolf eat it at all? thay all came over to it and aet it

[tender tinsel]

i didnt i got it from the mistlands

[compact heath]

I thought they didn’t eat it unless that got changed sometime

[tender tinsel]

might have. think god

[compact heath]

If they not hungry then it seems to be working

If it changes then from hungry to happy

[tender tinsel]

yeah

[compact heath]

I don’t pick up mist sausages just leave them in in the box

[frosty frost]

Iirc the wolves do indeed eat sausage 🤔 will go check tho

[frosty frost]

Yep, they do eat them 🙂

[compact heath]

great, I swear they did not when I checked, in 2021 ^^

[frosty frost]

That Is entirely possible, i don't remember much stuff that far back xD

talk to the people first

[vale ether]

@frail cave Do you think miss bog witch would spawn near bonemass?

[frail cave]

damn

[vale ether]

bonemass seems either WAY too close to the 3km mark

[frail cave]

the game doesn't specifically try to place her near any specific other location, but their ranges overlap so it can happen

[steep tusk]

Yeah the traders all look right too me. Bonemass looks too close imo.

[vale ether]

so i don't know if she'll spawn there or bonemass is inside the inner circle

[steep tusk]

Bonemass being closer than Elder is wild.

[vale ether]

elder took me an hour to find my way to the big idiot

[crimson lotus]

anyone

[steep tusk]

Do what you feel like doing.

[vale ether]

so it's not possble for bog witch to spawn near bonemass right? because its in the inner circle?

[steep tusk]

If hating the knockback, switch to swords or axes.

[steep tusk]

Anything is possible, given the nature of RNG.

[frail cave]

bonemass' ring extends pretty far out

[vale ether]

oh so that ring probably stops it from spawning her right?

[frail cave]

no, they overlap

i think they both go to the end of the swamp ring

theoretically you could have a bog witch spawn like 50 meters next to a bonemass altar

[steep tusk]

Bonemass vs. Broomstick

[vale ether]

broomstick deals 1 glorpillion damage

I kinda wanna ask sev if her possible spawn is near bonemass LMAO

[frail cave]

yea bonemass' altar has a minimum distance of 2000 meters from the world's center and no maximum distance, so it goes all the way to the end of swamps.
and the bog witch's range is 3000 to 8000, which is silly because swamps don't even go to 8000 anymore since the mistlands update. i think it's just the same range as the other two traders, and hildir's range is also overkill

[vale ether]

iron gate is giving more incentive for us to explore but the wind kills my vibes

[steep tusk]

Find a map where all traders are at 8k on equally spaced ends of the circle 😏

[tired root]

If you want to try out other weapon you could craft a sword if you have spare metals for it, then go level it up a bit by killing lower tier enemies, something like 30 skill level should suffice. Draugr spawners are good way to fight many enemies in short time.

[steep tusk]

If you want to level swords, make x3 rank 1 Bronze Swords and go kill Bonemass.

[zinc grove]

anyone know why we didnt learn new recipes after putting the ashlands cauldron improvement down? Rolling pins and cutting board

[compact heath]

hm seems strange you normally do, you can already make spicey marmalade even before that though, maybe missing some important ingredients you need like berries?

[zinc grove]

the Vineberry Cluster and Fiddlehead are the ones that we havent found before yet

but I assumed youd just learn the recipe if you gathered a single item from the recipe

[compact heath]

no, need to get all to unlock

[zinc grove]

yea thats what I thought

[compact heath]

and I don't have time to check all recipes rn but I think they all might need one of the 2 at least

like spicey marmalade can be made even without that flametal upgrade

[zinc grove]

I just looked up the marmelade and it's not there either. we just have all up until and including ashlands food

we do play on public test server for the bogwitch patch, maybe its a bug?

[compact heath]

yeah needs vineberries that

[frail cave]

-# might be a misunderstanding here, pretty important missing comma

[compact heath]

thanks you're right english not my first language

[compact heath]

you do need to gather all of the ingredients, else will not unlock

[zinc grove]

aaah

😄 Will try nbow

[compact heath]

and I looked at the food spreadsheet in this discord, I don't think ashlands has any foods that use neither of the 2 ingredients, some use both

[warm harness]

how big are mountain biomes normally? i've found 3 by now and the biggest one is this, wich only has obsidian and nothing more 🥲

[compact heath]

this is incredibly tiny

[subtle parrot]

Yeh some are really tiny and some are really large, you'll probably want to set sail in order to find a good sized mountain. Look off on the horizon and you'll see potential mountains in the distance to sail towards.

Also, if you happen to find hildir before getting to the mountains, you can use her map locations to find good mountains as well.

[warm harness]

my seed might be cursed i only find big ass plains and am getting my butt kicked by fucking mosquitoes

[simple ether]

can anyone tell me what skalds girdle does exactly

i cant find anything on google about it

[subtle parrot]

Never heard of it. Are you using mods?

[simple ether]

yeah but i never saw anything in my mods that mentioned it

just a bnhc of QOL mods

[subtle parrot]

Plains is difficult before mountains, unfortunately sometimes you have to trek through them to get there

[simple ether]

cause haldor sells it in his shop for me

says "allows you to commune with skald while traveling"

[subtle parrot]

Ok, megingjord?

[simple ether]

its seperate from that

[frosty frost]

Nothing like that in vanilla

[subtle parrot]

Hmm

Might want to double check your mods

[simple ether]

https://next.nexusmods.com/valheim/collections/n6j8xl this is my collection im using

[subtle parrot]

Might try asking in #mods-discussion or #mods-issues

[simple ether]

okay thank u !!

[rigid trench]

Hey, is VOIP still working through mods?

for the life of me i cant seem to be able to make it work.

[frosty frost]

Mods questions should go to #mods-discussion or #mods-issues 🙂

[wanton charm]

fastest way to progress knife? also whats after abyssal razor?

[frosty frost]

silver knife

[simple ether]

crazy i asked about the mod stuff and got a timeout for it

in the mod help chat LMFAO

[frosty frost]

Are you sure it was because of that?

[simple ether]

yes

i asked if this item called "skalds girdle" was and i got timed out automatically

like i dont know what was sensitive to that chat auto banning me for asking that certain question

[little trench]

can you see infested mines torches through the fog from outside of the biome?

for example if i'm on a boat and looking in

[frosty frost]

As long as they are loaded in, yes

[little trench]

sweet ty

[tranquil lion]

Do better bows/arrows have better projectile velocity/drop speed? I really wanna like the bow and craft more but man does it feel kinda bad to use

[frosty frost]

After huntsman i think they are all the same (?) dont quote me on that tho xD

[tranquil lion]

Is it worth upgrading from a crude to fine though? Or should i just wait and use other weapons?

[frosty frost]

Oh yes

[tired root]

It is worth it. I never ever again craft Crude bow.

[frosty frost]

Thats probably the upgrade you will see the improovement the most

[tranquil lion]

Good to know then. I just noticed a higher stamina cost on it so i was skeptical at first

[tired root]

Even thought Finewood bow sometimes is inaccurate when not needed it is much better than Crude bow.

Huntsman bow has even better accuracy than Finewood bow.

[tranquil lion]

btw is there any way to dismantle or just trash items? Like what do i do with my crude bow? Make a hole in the ground and bury it? XD

[frosty frost]

Throw it in the ocean or somewhere away from base and it will despawn after 2 in-game days, and in 3rd biome you will get a "trashcan" in which you can destroy stuff 🙂

[tired root]

You could also save some items in case you need it, like for corpse runs for example.

Except Crude bow, just get rid of it quickly.

[tranquil lion]

i made the fine wood. Seems like a big improvement in damage but the projectile arc still kinda sucks

[frosty frost]

It will get better 🙂

[tranquil lion]

Do arrows have any effect? Ive been just using wood ones but i have a bunch of the fletched arrows as well just been saving them for the next boss

[tired root]

Arrows don't affect to projectile trajectory, only the bow.

[frosty frost]

The arrow dmg adds up to the bow dmg

[tired root]

I like Fire arrows - cheap and highly effective in first 2 biomes.

[tranquil lion]

ok i compared them side by side there actually is a big improvement i just had to see it first hand

[tired root]

It's like night and day difference.

[wanton charm]

how do I cook pike

[wanton charm]

is that the ore after iron?

[frosty frost]

You need prep table

[frosty frost]

Yep, you find it in mountains

[wanton charm]

thank you

[rocky sphinx]

hi guys, my bro and I have had this server for a while now, before mistlands iirc, can hildir and the bog witch still spawn on this map?

[frosty frost]

Yep, if you have unexplored swamps and meadows, which you seem to 100% have, they will spawn 🙂

[rocky sphinx]

cheers
i remembered something about them only spawning in a certain radius, wasnt quite sure

[frosty frost]

Oh the radius restrictions still apply 🙂

[little trench]

after you've completed stone building, can you just remove stonecutter without any negative consequences? for example, will the stone buildings degrade?

[rocky sphinx]

we are planning on sailing west, would that still fall under the radius?

[tired root]

You can remove it, stone structures won't degrade like some wooden structures during rain. You can't repair them without the Stonecutter tho.

[little trench]

aight ty

[frosty frost]

Considering you didnt explore pretty much anything there, yes 😄

[rocky sphinx]

thanks for the help, appreciate it

[tired root]

Hildir's spawning radius from center is from 3000m to 5100m (technically up to 8000m but because Meadows appear only up to 5100m she cannot spawn further than that).
Bog Witch spawning radius is from 3000m to 6000m in post-Mistlands worlds and up to 8000m in pre-Mistlands worlds (since Mistlands patch changed the world gen to create larger areas of Mistlands in further distance for new worlds, replacing mostly swamps so it effectively changed the swamps biome appearing up to 6000m, older worlds have no world gen changes, only the added content).

[crimson lotus]

does wisp torch prevent spawn of enemies in mistland

[tired root]

It doesn't, but enemies don't target them.

[crimson lotus]

so i still need to place campfires or normal torches?

[frosty frost]

If you want to spawnproof, yes

[tired root]

If you want to prevent enemy spawns then campfires are effective.

But if you create areas with wisp torches you can see hares better.

[crimson lotus]

then i'll just use both

[mellow lodge]

campfires will block hare spawning

[golden veldt]

hey ive just came on for the first time in a while, and my level 4 cauldron wont let me make bread, any ideas why that might be?

bread dough, i mean

[tired root]

You need Preparation table, which is used for making uncooked foods.

Mead bases also require a new crafting station, Mead Ketill.

[golden veldt]

oh wow, nice 😄

[mellow lodge]

before i test, does anyone know if the lightning from the obliterator only damages stuff around it? what if I have it in a high roofed building. Does the path of the lightning damage stuff?

[frosty frost]

I believe it does 🤔 but not 100% sure

[real nebula]

@frail cave pretty sure we saw this happen, yeah? everything on the path of the bolt got massive damage

[frosty frost]

It wouldnt make much sense for it to only dmg stuff around the obliterator itself, since Thor sends you lightning from the sky 😄

[frail cave]

it wasn't a very tall hut though

and i've never blown something up with an obliterator before that so i really have no idea 😅

[real nebula]

something to test maybe~

although we do know that the AoE damage around the obliterator isn't all that powerful

[frosty frost]

On it 🫡

[real nebula]

at least, not if you wanted to use it for demolition

[frail cave]

yea i'm too ready for a nap to test myself, thank you asatru~ ´v`

[real nebula]

https://tenor.com/view/crow-raven-black-bird-biting-nibble-gif-17772668680409616786

[frosty frost]

Yep, it does dmg stuff directly above it

and that for 400 dmg

[frail cave]

-# that's a lotta lava lanterns

[frosty frost]

was testing spawnproofing capabilities 🤭

[frail cave]

well we got my spreadsheet for that now~ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lGv_8efnTaAjYSLKGaquMbulrbalgBB3_69CaQ_54L4/ :>

[mellow lodge]

thanks for testing that! I guess i could put it in a building with a single tile open to the sky then

[prime quest]

What exactly does the parry bonus on bucklers?

[frosty frost]

Yep 😄 and you should also have a clear area around the obliterator itself

[mellow lodge]

yeah, around the obliterator is easy. black marble or iron is fine. or ground of course

[frail cave]

parry bonus is a multiplier applied to block armor on parries, it doesn't affect the damage you deal after a parry at all, that's always x2

[prime quest]

tyvm

[frosty frost]

Oh? disregard my comment, confused some things 🤦‍♂️

[frail cave]

so it allows you to parry stronger attacks without getting staggered, but your max health is still also an important factor

[prime quest]

couse the new buckler shows x2.5 parry bonus

[frail cave]

yea round shields have x1.5 and bucklers have x2.5, but lower base block armor, so their blocking is weaker than a round shield's, but their parrying is stronger

[prime quest]

hmmm... wich one to use now, i am using black metal shield, but could also craft me that mistlands one made from seekers skin

[frail cave]

the carapace shield is gonna be a straight upgrade over the black metal shield, the buckler is gonna be a little more fragile on blocking, but significantly better on parries

[prime quest]

i rlly love to parry, so thats my choice 🙂

[frosty frost]

Parries are REEEEALLY good 😄

[steep tusk]

Carapace Buckler remains the best shield in the game even in the Ashlands.

[frosty frost]

For parrying, yes 🙂

[true steeple]

As good as jumping?

[frosty frost]

In my honest opinion? Better 😉

[tired root]

I was just going to say the same

[exotic hinge]

I'm too much of a wus to figure out on my own; does picking up ||Dvergr Tankards/Lanterns inside a Dvergr area set off their agro?||

[frosty frost]

Nope 🙂

[true steeple]

If you’re ever unsure if something will anger dvergr, remember that dead dvergr can’t hate you

[exotic hinge]

Even if I had more gumption, often times when I want to actually test the theory, they were already ticked off at me for unrelated reasons or something else already culled the outpost

[normal sinew]

Could someone help me?
I currently play Valheim with 3 other friends, but one of them keeps disconnecting every around 10 minutes.
We’ve already tried switching who hosts the server, but the issue persists. Does anyone have any suggestions on this?
P.S.: The other players are not experiencing any issues.

[frosty frost]

This seems to be a problem with that friends connection

[small nest]

real bad internet, i guess

[frosty frost]

Do they perhaps play on wifi, hotspot or just have really unstable connection?

[normal sinew]

He only uses a wired connection, we've already tried restarting the router and swapping the cables, but with no success. Currently, we’ve disabled a crossplay feature, but we're still testing. Thank you so much for the messages, everyone. You’re amazing, always ready to help.

[heavy umbra]

Hello Warriors. Wondering if anyone had any issue starting worlds lately. I have 70 mods installed that are all pretty common and on the high end of the mod lists.

[covert hedge]

Hey, I have a question, a few month ago I've been told that tetra fish in caves respawns but the pond is still empty after hundreds of IG hours. Do I need to be inside the caves or anything so they can respawn ?

[vernal patrol]

I need some help. How does one tame a Lox or whatever? I've only tamed wolves and boars. I don't know how to trap that big thing to tame it or what I do

[wind bison]

maybe not a question for this chat, but as for mistlands, im new to it, just got my eitr production going and im wondering what is the best melee weapon to craft?

[true steeple]

Mistwalker is a great choice

[wind bison]

ive tamed some loxes, I didnt bother boxing them in on anything, instead I dropped some cloudberries near them and I stayed close to them as they became tame

[wind bison]

yeah? its good allround or does it have some niche use?

[vernal patrol]

How did you not get attacked? I'm trying to think of a strat to work around aggro and make it easier to tame them in an area they won't walk away from food.

[wind bison]

stay far away enough for them not to aggro, but I also built a small shed that I hid inside sometimes, it seems that the dont aggro if ur behind walls)

[small canopy]

trying to make a land bridge over a very short patch of ocean between two islands, but at a certain depth the hoe build stops bumping up the height. any way to do this?

[vernal patrol]

What about them walking away from the food if you leave them out like that?

Did it never go far or something?

[wind bison]

if ur in range of them getting those green hearts floating above them, then ur taming them, and that distance isnt enough for them to aggro you, so you should be able to keep up with them if they move

[tired root]

Some might say it's a sword upgrade for Frostner as it deals slash and cold damage (and has higher damage as it's 2 tiers higher weapon).

[queen harness]

Does anyone know where the character save files are? I saw online that they are at C:\Users<user name>\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\characters, but could not find my character in that folder.

[true steeple]

It does almost as much damage as the silver sword against charred enemies in ashlands, but is cheaper to make

[wind bison]

sounds good, im all for swords since thats my mail skill (got 63 sword and 34 club)

[true steeple]

If you already have a silver sword, it will still be worth making to use in mistlands and for non-charred enemies in ashlands

[tired root]

Mistwalker surely is good option against Seekers as they don't resist cold like they do resist physical damage.

And frost effect is very useful.

[wind bison]

i have lvl 4 frostner and lvl 4 black sword

and now lvl 2 mistwalker

[chilly shadow]

Easiest way is to dig a big hole. Aggro or harpoon em into hole and throw in cloudberries then get them to de aggro.

[prime quest]

How long does it take for items on floor to despawn?

[frail cave]

2 in-game days / 60 irl minutes as long as it's not within 20 meters of a player base structure, in which case it'll never despawn

[thorn spire]

unless it's under 2m of water, like iron nails from the boat you forgot to collect.

[onyx pasture]

I curious is there a limit on total skeletons spawned for the whole team? Because I have a team of 5, right before a fight could we each summon 3 from one skull then eat bukeberries and have normal food ( besides the mage) and then have 15 skeletons?

[exotic hinge]

Wanted to double check; A Fire Resistance Wine gives equivilent protection to being wet. Therefore, if I was trying to min-max resources, I would and should only pop a fire resistiance potion IF I was no longer actively wet

[thorn spire]

I think it's a limit overall. Others have tested this and you can't exceed the limit of any one staff.

[onyx pasture]

Hmm interesting

[thorn spire]

I might be wrong though.

[real nebula]

Mind that wet will also reduce your stamina regeneration, and iirc receiving fire damage while wet will reduce the duration of the wet debuff, so it'll be inconsistent compared to barley wine

barley wine should be fairly cheap to prepare, I'd rely on that instead

[thorn spire]

I'd rather just wear my fenris set anyway.

[exotic hinge]

I wasn't aware of the fire damage effecting the wet effect, but that makes sense from a mechanics standpoint. It's true that the potions are very effective with no downsides, but if I"m caught in a rainstorm, I'm going to be wet whether I like it or not, as an example

I'd use the Fenris set but I feel way too squishy with it

[thorn spire]

My combat style is dodge focused, so I don't worry about that much. I do keep a good shield on hand for 'squitos though.

or a polearm.

the anti-sting concoction will be a game changer for me next playthrough.

[exotic hinge]

Squitos I can handle; plains are flat and I can keep my head on a swivel. Mistlands robs me of my ability to see a threat incoming; I have to have the armor to survive one or more suprise attacks

[thorn spire]

that's fair.

I use my ears a lot.

[exotic hinge]

I've been doing that too; hunting Gjall for bile sacks, I can hear them well before I see them or they see me

[thorn spire]

My first build in mistlands is the arbalest, then the feather cape.

[exotic hinge]

I still wish I could craft a whisp flask, shatter it, and clear the mist in a 100m radius for 5 mins

[thorn spire]

when I'm exploring (early) mistlands, I'll keep the arbalest ready to knockback anything that might surprise me.

[exotic hinge]

I love the crossbow, but I'm really disapointed in it now compared to magic staff of embers

If I could keep the thing reloaded after being stowed or chose when to reload it manually, that would even the playing field

but as it stands, except when I'm hunting Gajill, the staff dosn't complete for the stamina I use to climb the terrain and the AoE is forgiving enough for hitting agile hare targets and splashing multiple seekers if they group up

Plus the magic food I eat is a sunk cost; I don't sweat missing a few projectiles. Even though I'm flush with feathers, wood, and caparce shells, I reflexivlely curse each shot I miss with the crossbow

[thorn spire]

I know what you mean. I feel the same way about missing shots.

[prime quest]

what happens if i throw eggs into a filled chicken stall with allready reached limit, will those eggs still hatch and grow up?

[thorn spire]

yes. The limit only affects whether hens will lay new eggs.

[chilly shadow]

I feel like that's the other way around.

[thorn spire]

Tame animals will only breed new babies or eggs if the local population limit hasn't already been reached. If you've reached the limit by breeding, then introduce new eggs, they'll still hatch and grow up.

[steep tusk]

Why do people want to cram an overabundance into such a small area?

Let the animals breathe..

[crimson lotus]

do baby chicken eat carrot seeds to grow?

[spare ravine]

wait... theres barley wine in this game?

[steep tusk]

Yup.

[spare ravine]

That doesnt work! Barley makes beer, not wine!

[mellow lodge]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barley_wine

[spare ravine]

ok my world is shaken

ill have to read on that later, it sounds interesting

oh... its beer

[crimson lotus]

is there an 1 hand aoe weapon?

[ember wagon]

Sort of, the Mace kinda does AOE and knockback

[ember wagon]

Frostner is the best mace till endgame

[exotic hinge]

I dunno; the Porcupine is a pretty useful damage split in specific scenarios

[ember wagon]

Fair point I forgot about that one

[frosty frost]

No, aoe weapons are only 2 handed

[frosty frost]

No it doesent, it does the arch when you swing as most one handed weapons

[ember wagon]

I lied it doesn't do AOE my bad

[steep tusk]

The ability to dodge.

This game has builds?!?!? 👀
4 years of playing and I never knew that...

Did I mention needing any of those things?

What you need to defeat Eikthyr is "the ability to dodge."

Anything beyond that is not necessary, it just makes it faster.

Have you completely ignored everything the crow has said?

...

[ember wagon]

Just stay on your toes, and avoid his lightning attack. It will hit you through objects like trees and rock IF I remember right so you have to DODGE to avoid it. Time it right and it you won't take damage

you got this

Its different for every map

Look for Rune stones around the meadows it will reveal the spawn location if you get the right one

[steep tusk]

At the very, very beginning there are stones.
One of them is very small.
The bird tells you to click it.

[ember wagon]

^^

[steep tusk]

When you click it, it shows you where the boss is.

Because that is the function of the bird, to tell you useful things.

[tired root]

You can think the bird as a backseater guide who spoils the game content tells you about the game mechanics.

I jested a bit but he has useful advices. Good luck!

[tender tinsel]

Maybe the members of that group are gonna have a get-together and they are calling it valcon?

[keen zodiac]

In the comment section they were talking about Update 1.0 or Something like Deep North.

[prime quest]

2 deer trophys

[frosty frost]

XD yeah... Sure... Because that makes sense...

[true steeple]

For later bosses (eikthyr has one but it’s too late now), there will be a runestone nearby which hints toward the item you need to use. These summoning items will also be items that you haven’t used for anything else.

[oak basalt]

How to clear the list of recently played servers?😑

[frosty frost]

There should be remove button there

[keen zodiac]

If you can't find it then you can delete those from your Roaming/Appdata

[oak basalt]

The delete button is only in the list of favorite servers. Recently played, not

[oak basalt]

I tried to delete files in the game folder and it didn't help. I will say more, this list remained even after I completely reinstalled Windows

[keen zodiac]

Then you must be using steam cloud saves

You have to clear it from steam.

[little trench]

is there any mod that makes ashlands less stuttery?

[frosty frost]

#mods-discussion 🙂

[lilac coyote]

I can't imagine third party content somehow making the game MORE stable.

[sage pasture]

You need to imagine a little bigger Derek. Lots of game mods are made to make the game more stable

[lilac coyote]

Ok buddy.

[compact heath]

I do have to agree with Derek here

[analog kiln]

So I recall reading that you have to just make the pillar above the ground level for it to break, is this still the case and how much more above ground level do I need to get for it to break?

[analog kiln]

Thats not always the case lots of games make great games but the stability is not necessarily the best, modding communities come in and fix that for free and typically tailored to each users preferences. Tons of mods for ARK as an example fixed lots of the buggy stuff and made it more stable. It all depends on the devs and modders though. some things mods cant fix at all, others are maleable enough to be adjusted

[steep tusk]

This sounds very... #mods-discussion

[analog kiln]

To be fair I was initially here to ask a question

[thorn spire]

Your structures underneath (stairs) can actually provide support for the pillar sometimes. Try building ladders beside the pillar and whack away at it from the top of your ladder.

[analog kiln]

I only built the stairs after disconnecting everything and as I clear new chunks the stairs break and leave no support

[willow raft]

It does,'t need to give support just a hitbox that is touching another hit box is enough, I would make a hole you can stand in, in the pillar.
Then have some one else destroy the stairs or destroy them yourself with a bow or so.
Then wack away at a piece, once that breaks the whole thing should come tumbling down.

Another method would need the feather cape, build a high enough stair or ladder and float towards the hole.

[analog kiln]

Interesting so the stairs being there pre break is what is causing issues

Thank you for the assistance

[willow raft]

Exactly.
You can do it with copper and silver as well or with the mountains in mistlands.
Nothing should be touching a hitbox of what you are trying to break, nothing build or nothing from the terrain, you need about 2m clear space everywhere around it for it to work, if you then break a piece it should explode.

[analog kiln]

Good to know

[ocean briar]

are there any plugins, mods or settings for a server that can spawn people in split up across the map instead of at the normal spawn?
I'm kinda wanting to do a run at some point where everyone is split up initially but im not sure if this is possible?

[subtle parrot]

#mods-discussion

[tranquil lion]

is there any type of specific enclosure you need for catching/taming animals? I just set up some logs stacked 3 high and chased a boar into it tried to throw some berries in but he refuses to eat them

[subtle parrot]

If it can see you, or if there's a fire close by it will not be able to tame

[tranquil lion]

That explains why his tameness meter only popped up after i went to sleep. Hes still not eating tho

[ocean briar]

ayy I thought id ask here incase its a vanilla server setting anyway

[tranquil lion]

do i even need to feed it for taming or is that just for breeding? And what would i feed it? I threw rasberries and yellow mushrooms in but he aint goin for em

[subtle parrot]

Yes you need to feed it but they don't eat yellow shrooms, I'm pretty sure they should eat raspberries but I know for sure they eat red shrooms

[tranquil lion]

His tame percent is increasing but he hasnt eaten anything ive thrown down

[willow raft]

Yes, you need to feed it to tame, shrooms, carrots, turnips, onions, berries all good.
You also need to feed to breed, you need 2 happy boars close to each other.
It will only eat if it is calm, so that means it hasn't seen you in a while, there is no fire near.
I find the easiest way to dig a hole and lure the boar in there, throw it food, close the hole, move away, sneak closer and sit down close and wait or dig another hole close by drop in it and just sit and wait.

[willow raft]

It will eat once in a while, it will gain percentages up to a point then eat again and so on
It doesn't require much food.

[tranquil lion]

ok good to know. Maybe it did eat then and i just didnt notice JUST SAW IT EAT. SUCCESS

[willow raft]

Probably, it won't get tame percentages without eating.

[willow raft]

Hooray!

[tranquil lion]

Can i put shutters on the side of the pen btw or will he escape once tamed?

[subtle parrot]

The wall is a bit low, you might make it higher later, if it sees anything enemy wise it will stop taming

[willow raft]

He will want to break free, it will want to break free.

You can because they won't be able to open it themselves but if you forget to close it, you'll need to chase after it and push it back into its pen.

[tranquil lion]

even after its tamed they try to escape? Ok good to know i guess. So i need to make a second part of the corral where i would lure in other boars and have it connected with gates

[willow raft]

Nah tamed or not tamed board don't attack each other, so just have a wild boar chase you, open the pen run in and have it follow you in, close pen again when it is in.

[stoic trench]

Don’t think it’ll be able to escape from that pen, but if you have raids turned out they could be easily killed by most enemies I would guess. Might consider upgrading to a stake wall?

[simple yoke]

is there any trick to find the infested mines

[frail cave]

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

Does someone know how much noise element magic creates? If it is separated by staff - I am mainly interested in frost staff

[lilac coyote]

Hm, no, not off the top of my head. That's something we could add to the Wiki.

[stoic trench]

Look for sharp jagged black spires 🙂

[simple yoke]

are they at the top or the bottom of them?

i think i found a fake mine near one of them

[stoic trench]

At the bottom

You can also find them in abandoned Dvergr structures

The black marble ones

[simple yoke]

yea i found one of those

so something like that?

[stoic trench]

Iirc, it’s actually like 3 spires that are kinda bundled up with each other

[simple yoke]

hmm ok

ty

[stoic trench]

Good luck!

[simple yoke]

yea finding this shit in the mist is rough lol

[mellow lodge]

infested mines can sometimes be found in the basement of ruined dverger buildings also.

[simple yoke]

i went into the bottom of 1 but i don't think there was one

[little trench]

is there a "meta" endgame build? (gear, food setup, weapons)

[frosty frost]

Not really

[stoic trench]

I use flametal armor and Dyrnwyn+shield primarily. Just use whatever food I want, nothing crazy

[little trench]

hmm, would you agree that vine staff is meta?

[frosty frost]

I think it Is pretty strong, probably must have for mage build 🙂

[little trench]

well that doesnt exactly answer my question, meta means it's stronger than other things. sort of it being S-tier while other things being below

[frosty frost]

Then no

[little trench]

so you'd say dyrnwyn is on par with vine staff?

meaning, it's the same amount of effective

[stoic trench]

A lot of players say that magic is the strongest build, just generally speaking

[frosty frost]

Dyrnwyn Is kinda dissapointing, but not really bad by any means, it Is just really not that good in biome you get it in

But you can't really compare sword and staff

[little trench]

why not? 5 charred attacks you. 3x warriors 2x archers. you have dyrnwyn and vine staff, which is most effective?

[tired root]

I would argue Thundering Berserkir Axes being "meta" for melee if there was one as they hit fast and chain lightning is effective.

[frosty frost]

True, tho bit of glasscannon-y 😄

[little trench]

yea i've also seen that said a lot (and ive used it quite a bit and can agree)

[stoic trench]

Berserkir mead is quite powerful, probably a staple for any ‘meta’ melee build

[frosty frost]

There Is just really no true, "meta" if you want, general build that would outshine all others, all have their pros and cons

[tired root]

Yeah, that's why I also said "meta"

[little trench]

the thing is, you say that but then every "very hard" or "hardcore" playthrough uses some of the same weapons. vine staff, prot bubble, frostner, himmini, ...

so to me, those would seem to be at the very least meta

[frosty frost]

If you want to view it that way... 👍

[warm yew]

Can I attach the new bog witch platters to tables?

[tired root]

Yes, with serving tray.

[warm yew]

Im trying to put down the whole roasted meadow boar on the table with the horizontal item stand and its saying i cant use it that way

[frosty frost]

Probably with item stand, possibly yes

[frosty frost]

I think thats what they want to attach
Edit, or not... I don't read Fast enough

[tired root]

They stated trying to put Meadows feast on table #valheim-help message

[frosty frost]

Yeah didn't read fast enough 😅

[tired root]

Yeah it happens sometimes lol

So for putting feasts on table to eat from them you need serving tray which is purchasable from Bog Witch. @warm yew

It works like building hammer but for food, mead and feast items.

[little trench]

you see what i mean tho? i dont mean to be some annoying arguer but it would just seem that some things are way more OP than others (meta). ofc you can succeed with every weapon type

[mellow lodge]

who cares?

[little trench]

waht? me. im the one who brought up the subject

and im guessing the ppl who chose to engage also. da fuck?

[mellow lodge]

right. so i'm telling you... who cares if anything is more OP?

[little trench]

me

[mellow lodge]

the wiki is a good resource for looking at damage numbers and such, and comparing that info if you care that much

[little trench]

ya and same thing could be said about 99% of questions being asked here. "go read the wiki", im asking because maybe some1 has a quick answer instead of me digging through all of the data and also (as you saw) there is discussion to be had

[mellow lodge]

because everyone asks the same bs over and over again and noone wants to spend time reading the wiki. they want everyone to spoon feed answers to them

[little trench]

alright

[frosty frost]

Not really, no.

[stoic trench]

I think he’s just asking what are some of the strongest weapons in the game- sure any weapon can be used, but he’s probably looking for the highest DPS output 🙂

[frosty frost]

Well then as said above thats what wiki is for 🙂 even if somebody sent it here it would most likely be pasted from wiki

[thick girder]

hey I haven't played for a while and a big mark that looks like a pot appeared on my map, do you guys know what it means?

[stoic trench]

Congratulations, you found the new content! ||it’s a new trader, the bog witch||

[thick girder]

ooh thanks 😄

[little trench]

can you permanently clear an island of spawners?

[stoic trench]

Yeah, don’t see why you couldn’t 🤔

[little trench]

alright

[fast palm]

Oh man i cant find any good mountains for finding Moder:( Any suggestions?

[stoic trench]

You’re looking to find Vegvisirs?

[fast palm]

yes

[fast palm]

yeah

[stoic trench]

Gotcha, my best advice is to sail around and look for extremely tall mountains. Those give you a lot of ground to cover- look in those castle structures often. Also explore frost caves!

[little trench]

think the mountain moder is on is usually very tall, so try to find a taill one

ya what toomuchdogg said

[fast palm]

yeah

thing is i cant find any tall ones

[little trench]

just keep sailing i guess, or look at https://valheim-map.world/ for your seed

[stoic trench]

She’s gotta be somewhere, keep the search going 👍

[fast palm]

thanks for the help appreciate it 😄

[terse bone]

looking for mistlands help but dont wanna spoil anything for anyone

essentially I thought I would be safe building a base there so that I wouldnt have to sail certain items there just to build a certain crafting item... so I got all my smelters up and started gettting going

now a certain something is there destroying everything... like literally everything

if Im not in the area will that certain something eventually leave so I can at least go collect myself? I have a portal there which is still standing thankfully but whenever I go there I get fucked

[terse bone]

I had to look for a while too. the mountain I eventually landed on was very visible out in the ocean. you'll find a big one eventually

[exotic hinge]

Depending on when that certain something spawned, it probably won't. There are things that, speaking broadly, spawn during events or during the night that will leave. Is there anything you can do to foritfy yourself for a rescue mission? Resistance things you could drink? Maybe make a suicide run to lure that thing away from the area, die, and come back

Also, another way to avoid spoilers is to use the spoiler format

[terse bone]

I just keep going naked trying to collect my stuff slowly

[exotic hinge]

use this symbol | but two of them

It does this ||gajell||

[terse bone]

|| its a gjall || I just thought it would be obvious lol

[exotic hinge]

It was

[gilded parrot]

Hello, just wondering if there is a progression chart by boss somewhere in the world. I haven't found any yet. :/

[exotic hinge]

Would you mind elaborating?

[terse bone]

it's not leaving though. my portal is right there though so I just keep trying to grab stuff and portal back but throwing out the ores takes too much time then I get killed

[terse bone]

theres the original spawn with the forsaken alters and vegvisirs which tell you where bosses are. that's all

[gilded parrot]

Like how they do cheat sheets by biome. ^-^

Recipies, just because I'm in a biome and have ingredients doesnt mean I can cook a specific recipie with those ingredients until I beat a specific boss that allows me to upgrade my cooking stuff right?

[terse bone]

im just sad i cant build a base in the mistlands.... I had a whole setup there from a certain POI which got wiped out. so sad. I guess nearby black forest for smelting it is then

[stoic trench]

To make living in the mistlands more manageable, you could ||setup some ballista, and eventually tag them with Gjall trophies?||

[frigid linden]

There's no progression chart.

Cauldron cooking though is easy to remember so I'll help you out. If you play the intended way you can get 1 upgrade per biome exactly, starting at level 1 (the cauldron itself) in the black forest

So say you're in the swamp, if you haven't upgraded your cauldron yet it means there's something you've missed

[split kelp]

Hey
My buddy bought the game and his PC just shuts down after some time of playing and when something happens
He has 16GB Ram GTX 1070 Ti

Whats the possible issue?
This happens only with Valheim

I have worse PC than him and never had any issues

[gilded parrot]

I don't understand. If I go into any new biome I just get a random upgrade point? Who the point go to? It's not my server I'm playing on so I have no control over points.

[lofty halo]

It probably has to do with something else, can you DM me any other details? I might be able to help :)

[frigid linden]

Ah, I mean you can gather materials to make an upgrade, but again only if progressed in the intended order.

I have no idea what playing on multiplayer servers does to the way the game directs you, does the raven Hugin still appear and give you tips?

[gilded parrot]

What does progressed in the intended order mean? The only form of progression i know is boss's unlock the next set of crafting. I haven't played since the beta and about to be starting a multiplayer server this afternoon. So I have no clue haha

[frigid linden]

Bosses unlock the next set of crafting and to my knowledge either the item itself points you where you want to go next, or hugin appears and says something

But of course you still need to build the upgrades, you don't judt magically get to build new things

Example being the workbench, you NEED to have 2 upgrades nearby to make level 3 items. You can't just put down a workbench anywhere and make level 3 items

[gilded parrot]

2 upgrades of what nearby? Other items? I'm so confused

I thought upgrades were points

[frigid linden]

Upgrade stations to the workbench.

Like a chopping block and a tanning rack for example

[gilded parrot]

Oooh okay that makes more sense

[empty flame]

I have a (possibly) dumb question. I'm trying to run a dedicated valheim server on one machine, and logging into it with a second machine. I start the server just fine on machine A, but when I attempt to log in with machine B, I get a notification, "Error - Steam. You are logged in on another computer already playing valheim dedicated server. launching valheim here will disconnect the other session from steam". How do I fix this?

[frigid linden]

A workbench is level 1 by default. It gains an upgrade level as you build upgrade stations nearby

Same works for just about all crafting stations in this game, including cauldrons

[gilded parrot]

So to make those upgrades I have to get items from the biome the upgrade is from? And to collect those items I'll have to beat a specific boss to be able to collect the new biome items?

[frigid linden]

Generally speaking yes, it is possible to grab some things out of order but if you follow the path the game lays out for you and seek our the bosses, you should eventually be able to make everything

[gilded parrot]

Ok thank you!

[frigid linden]

When you get a new material the list of things you can build gets updated, and things only appear once you have picked up at least one of every material required to make the item

So as a quick example, a tanning rack requires 10 wood, 15 flint, 20 leather scraps and 5 deer hide to be made. You will only see the recipe once you have picked up one of each of those resources, at which time you can then build it.

[gilded parrot]

♡♡♡ gotcha. I was really hoping someone somewhere had made a cheat sheet by boss. But thank you so much for explaining it will at least be a little easier for me now and I have my little goals ^-^

[frigid linden]

As a general rule of thumb it's good to try and get at least 1 of most resource items, even if something might seem a bit pointless at first - you never know, it might actually unlock something better than you think

[edgy vortex]

Can anyone explain why the 50% rested skill buff is not listed in the buffs inherently in the game? Like is it supposed to be a secret or something is that why?

[frigid linden]

I personally have a mental cheatsheet by biome, I've never written it down

[gilded parrot]

See by biome does make sense for sure but it doesn't tell me what I can do before and after the boss is all. Like hunting for a recipie that i can't even cook yet because my fellow players haven't defeated x boss. Lol

[frigid linden]

The boss doesn't hard gate recipes, the picking up of items does - its possible to do some things out of order either through exploits or just getting lucky

[ionic harness]

hello. i should be looking at sealed tower? the what?

[frigid linden]

Is this an old map?

[ionic harness]

server started pre witch

[gilded parrot]

But doesn't it hard gate like pickaxes hammers and things used to collect the items in the biomes or to build the resources?

[frosty frost]

Then you need to go and click on the hildirs table again

[ionic harness]

oooh

[frigid linden]

So technically speaking it is actually possible to get your first pickaxe without killing the first boss, however it's a fairly lengthy process that you're only likely to discover by accident unless you've played thr game before or looked it up, as an example

Killing the first boss is the intended way

[frosty frost]

The addition of the witch scrambled the POIs around so the some locations marked before it are no longer accurate 🙂

[ionic harness]

thanks

[frigid linden]

That's why I said the boss doesn't "hard gate" things. In most cases bosses are soft gates. To my mind there's only 1 boss that is a true hard gate at the moment

[mellow lodge]

yeah, Moder

[wanton ember]

So i have super weird game seed map has no Yagluf spawn point or stones showing you where to find a boss, and also 9 out of 10 infected mines has no mines staircase goes nowhere. (I even digged and nothing is underneath) I have spend more than 50 hours on this map and I can't progress basically, is there any way to transfer loot and character to another seed?

cTPhGAhEhJ

[echo sparrow]

oh yeah you can easily transfer--depending upon how much loot, will take multiple trips

basically any character and its inventory can drop into any world

[wanton ember]

what about skill levels?

[echo sparrow]

skill levels are saved with each character

[wanton ember]

is it official way or i have to save files and do a lot of stuff?

[echo sparrow]

so if you load your current character into any new world, they'll have whatever inventory you logged off with, same with skills

it's official, standard way game runs

[wanton ember]

got it thanks, Ill try it.

[echo sparrow]

so if you wanna "change seeds" just load up new world with new seed, build a few chests in the new world and leave your inventory, then go back to old world to fill up inventory to take to new world and dump off and repeat as needed until all the stuff you want moved over is moved over

[wanton ember]

got it, what about boss trophies and boss powers?

i have to return to old map to activate something esle right?

[echo sparrow]

yeah or kill the boss again on new seed

i've also never tested what happens if you have killed a boss a second time to get a spare trophy and take that to a new world and pop it on the stones

[wanton ember]

yeah i saw some people has boss trophies hanged as items

[warm yew]

Thank!

[shrewd pumice]

guys so i had a fireplace and it was well maintained for the wind and rain but all of a sudden it went out what do i do

[stoic trench]

Hmm does it have fuel? You have wood in it? Is it properly ventilated?

[shrewd pumice]

its properly ventilatde

i tried to give it wood but it didnt let me

[echo sparrow]

are you JUST covering the top, or the sides as well?

because IME sometimes a very "open" fire will get put out (think it's a wind thing, not sure) even when I technically have it under a roof

[exotic hinge]

Does the ||shield generator|| consume fuel just by being active or only when it's actually ||blocking attacks||?

Also it dosn't take ||withered bones|| that's BS

[frosty frost]

Option B 🙂

[exotic hinge]

Nice radius, getting prequle flashbacks though

whats the console command to increase xp gain rate?

setkeyplayer SkillGainRate 3 for 3x xp gain rate? or setkeyplayer SkillGainRate 300?

[full halo]

hello, how can we fix more bugs due to high instances? THANKS

[mellow lodge]

it does take charred bones however, which you'll drown in there

[lilac coyote]

Those aren't bugs.

[true steeple]

What bugs are you experiencing that you think are caused by a high instance count?

[full halo]

these are the constructions, I lowered the graphics I lag less thank you

[tranquil lion]

Anyway to stack stone or normal wood piles? Saw that finewood piles at least seem stackable

Also related to deltoxes question. Whats actually causing lag behind instance generation? Terrain alteration or just the amount of tiles put down? I made most of my home with alternating 1x1s cus i thought it looked nice but i definitely started laggin a good bit and would like to minimize that

[echo sparrow]

from what little I read up on, altering terrain ever (with the hoe) alone did cause some things that caused lag cumulatively awhile back, but that was either completely removed or just toned down to the point of being a lot less noticeable; building lots of things in an area creates more instances which is what most people seem to think (that the player controls) causes lag; I also read, not really able to verify myself, LIGHTING sources is a big one

more so than just sheer number of instances

[lilac coyote]

Pretty much spot on, that.

[dapper oyster]

do sulfur nodes on arches respawn after you pick them? (please ping)

[warm yew]

do iron firepits work for eggs?

[brazen patrol]

Anyone else get a lag spike when getting near the witch's hut ?

[frosty frost]

Anything that gives fire effect will let them hatch

[frosty frost]

Known issue, should be adressed in next patch 🙂

[frosty frost]

I dont think so but not 100% certain

[brazen patrol]

noted 👍

[exotic hinge]

I'd like a subtle pointer if I may, low on spoilers:
I've yet to find the Ashelands biome though I haven't explicitly gone looking for it yet. I find it suprising since I found the Deep North first, which isn't impossible I'm sure, but noteworthy.
My question is are Ashelands different from other biomes in that they arn't located concentrically around rings or do I just need to search around more in general? Thumbs up for specific, Thumbs down for keep searching like normal.

[frosty frost]

Indeed 🙂 the last two biomes have different locations and are not generated in most of the world, would you like a direction as to where to go?

[jagged lynx]

What setting do I change to see animals from further away?

[frosty frost]

The second slider i believe

[jagged lynx]

thanks

[chilly shadow]

Your best bet is to place em against a wall, they can snap to the wall but not on top of each other. So you can cheese it a bit.

[willow jungle]

Uhm, I have a Wolf that's set on fire after getting hit by a Surtling during a raid. It has been for minutes now that he is burning, how do I get rid of it (without killing the wolf)? xD

[true steeple]

Close the server, I don’t think status effects on creatures save.

[willow jungle]

Worked, thanks!

[modern sail]

Does using the trollstav not level up blood magic? I summoned a load of trolls to take a fortress, but the character's skill is still 0. I know I could level it with staff of protection + skeletts, but I'm confused. Is this a bug, a deliberate choice, or am I doing something wrong?

[steep tusk]

If it does, it's probably hit-based like everything else.
And trolls aren't known for their attack speed.

[mellow lodge]

i think it's deliberate/bug because the trolls are not friendly creatures.

[ripe bone]

hi sev

[mellow lodge]

leaning more towards deliberate

[wind bison]

how do I get into contact with the group of players that helps out to get loot back?

[modern sail]

It was slow but they definitely killed things.

[modern sail]

I guess that's true but, it feels like they're shooting blood magic in the leg when it was already barely limping along.

[steep tusk]

Oh... given how many melee people change to eitr food so they can melee + bubble... I would say Blood Magic is doing just fine.

[ripe bone]

Unfaithful heretics

Tank the damage cowards.

[subtle parrot]

In ashlands there's a certain type of weapon that pairs well with using the blood magic bubble

[willow jungle]

Is there a way to turn of snapping when building? I want to place something at 0,5 meters, instead of 1 or 2 meters

[chilly shadow]

When you have your hammer out look at the bottom of your screen, should have an "alternate placement" toggle you can use to then the snapping off

[willow jungle]

I can't find it

[chilly shadow]

Looks like it's shift for you. Toggle snapping.

[willow jungle]

Ahh, you have to hold SHIFT. Thanks a lot! @chilly shadow

[chilly shadow]

Sure thing

[ripe bone]

how far out do plains groupers or whatever spawn from the shore, as a heads up before i decide to look for them

[silent jackal]

super confused rn, the top of the structure isnt falling even though ive broken everything including pillars, stairs etc. also am i dumb or something? im building a base out of marble rn and i see the dwarves make a top floor/roof entirely out of marble floor pieces but when i do it, it crumbles as soon as i try to put the second piece away from the wall. is there some structural stuff that im doing wrong or are the dwarves just built different?

[simple yoke]

do infested mines seekers on the outside of them?

[silent jackal]

do they have seekers? yes

[simple yoke]

oh whoops

do those seekers respawn is what i meant to ask

[true steeple]

Some enemies respawn inside infested mines

[simple yoke]

oke ty

[nocturne dew]

Good morning everyone, hope y'all are having a good day 🙂 i have a question and sorry if the question is too noob to be here. I started to play with a few Friends and one of em is the owner of the server(is a normal server not a dedicated) is there a way that he can give me the server so i can be de owner now? Like a copy paste some files(but idm where or how it should be)

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server

[frosty frost]

I believe that should be certainly possible 🙂 while it Is not a dedicated server there could be a pinned message in the channel Sev linked with instructions how to do it. You could also try the search function to see if someone already asked something similar and if there are answers you are looking for 😄

[nocturne dew]

I wrote it wrong, is not a server but a world that one of my friends created and we are playing in, i forgot to specificate that 😦 sorry for my bad english

[true steeple]

The current host needs to use the manage saves button on world select to move the world from cloud to local storage, then the .db and .fwl files can be sent to you

[nocturne dew]

@frosty frost @steep tusk thanks for the help btw ❤️

@true steeple thanks mate have a great day

[muted ice]

Does anyone know of a mod or console command to change the order in which your skills are displayed?

[true steeple]

There is currently no way to do this without mods. There’s probably a mod for it somewhere but I don’t use mods.

[muted ice]

RIP - my crippling OCD has me creating characters and unlocking them in a specific order to satify it

[noble vault]

My vineberry bushes don't seem to have grown since reaching this state a few days ago. Does anyone know what might be going on?

[glass barn]

try a taller more flat structure like a traditional vineyard style weaving wooden beams in x patterns otherwise they grow slowly and dont like angle changes

[noble vault]

Will give that a go, thanks

[glass barn]

Ill send ya pic of what my friend did give me a sec

[noble vault]

That's even better 😄 lol

[glass barn]

Sent in DM

[noble vault]

Ah yeah, thanks, looks sensible

[zenith berry]

trollfish spawn on the shore of dark forests they cant spawn in freshwater right

[primal hare]

pretty sure they normally don't yea

This is kind of a weird question, and please don't judge me for my inability to figure this out. Math is my utmost weakness and I'm also sick.

I want to figure out about how many hours I've played Valheim, and since I'm on Xbox, I can't track that like if I were on Steam (Xbox only tracks time played eith games with achievements and Valheim has none. It sucks.)

I've spent 1,578 days in Valheim, and I know a day/night cycle is 30 minutes, but I'm stuck on how to calculate this.

My estimation is I've spent at least 500 hours. Could be twice or three times as more, my track of time absolutely gets lost in this game.

[frosty frost]

It Is unfortunately pretty much impossible to get even semi acurate result from just number of days since you may have slept through some, none or all of nights

[primal hare]

Omg that's right. That's extremely disheartening man, I just want to know how much I've spent on this game

[frosty frost]

Can't really help you as i do not play on Xbox, sorry

[primal hare]

I still appreciate it, thank you anyway.

[acoustic rivet]

from a clearly math perspective 2 days = one hour, so if you were to do the full day cycle thats 789 hours. if you have an estimate on how many nights out of ten you sleep, multiply time of night by that factor and substract to give you an estimate of hours. definitely sounds like youd be in the ballpark of 300-500 hours depending on sleep

[primal hare]

Tysm 😭 I literally could not figure this out. I'm ashamed to admit, but it's all good. I appreciate this. I rarely do sleep, so it's a good estimate. Maybe 600 or so hours!

[grand pebble]

gang u can see ur hours on a game on xbox...

[primal hare]

how brother am i stupid (yes)

[grand pebble]

just go to ur achievements on the game

[primal hare]

ok let me update it

[grand pebble]

just go to all ur achievements then select the game u want to see the achievements for

[primal hare]

yeah this pops up though

no info on it

this is what i was talking about, Google says you can but you can't

[grand pebble]

oooooh i dont think valheim has achievements yet

[grand pebble]

nah its just it doenst have achievements so u cant see it

[primal hare]

yeah it sucks i just wanna see how much ive played

[grand pebble]

whats ur gamertag

[primal hare]

maleficmamba

[grand pebble]

yeah dont even pop it up that sucks

[primal hare]

I just want the devs to make one stupid achievement like "You played" for like 10gs so I can see how long I've played

It's definitely a long time, not thousands of hours but up there

I may have slept some nights but I also leave the game idle sometimes.

[frosty frost]

Well the achievements will come with 1.0 , so play until then and you will have a big surprise when it comes 😄

[primal hare]

You know what, heck yeah, you know I'm gonna play then and years into the future 😂

[valid bane]

how to check if the server iplay on is updated to the latest version?

[frosty frost]

You try to join on the latest version and you will see if it lets you in

[valid bane]

oh i can only join if on the same version? because i can join yes however the askvin cape is still showing the old description

[frosty frost]

I am not sure if the description itself changed at all, i believe only the effect got tweeked

[willow raft]

Done the cape and check the active buffs that way you will know if the effect has changed or not.

[valid bane]

well i go slower now with the cape then before so i guess it uh worked

[high sorrel]

ive played valheim for a long time now but ever since one of the latest patches or updates spawnrates seem drastically higher? ive had 3 trolls spawn almost next to my house within 20 seconds after killing the last one each time and its becoming near impossible to introduce my friends to the game i have no mods on and am on the public test version, was curious if there is any confirmation or fix or something we can do because we have are having shaman and greywarves in packs of 10 or more every 30-40 seconds no exxageration

[frosty frost]

Are you sure it wasnt a raid?

[high sorrel]

no raid those announce themselves

[frosty frost]

Yep and have a red circle on minimap

[valid bane]

myabe you messed with the world setting sliders?

[frosty frost]

I am not sure if that affects the ammount of mobs spawning tho

all on normal

in over 20-30 worlds on valheim ive practically never had this issue

but its gotten so bad that ive come to the server to ask it almost feels as though the ashlands spawnrate has been set for the entire world

and every biome outside of it

[subtle parrot]

Haven't noticed this at all tbh

[high sorrel]

ive been seeing it brought up quite a bit on the subreddit only ever since the ashlands update

[hybrid wind]

Hey All!
Ever since the Ashland's update i've been having huge fps drops (Mainly or only in Ashland), and my friend has it as well. Is this a common issue? I tend to have around 150 fps in Plains, Mistland etz, but getting like 25 in Ashlands. Does anyone know of the devs are working on fixing this anytime soon?

[frosty frost]

Yeah, i also dont have this proble, and i dont think anyone else said thea have it either here (spawn rate probelm)

[willow raft]

Me neither, spawn are normal all across the board.

[willow raft]

It is because of all the stuff going on in ashlands, eventually it will be adressed one way or another but I expect that isn't for soon, I might be wrong though.

[valid bane]

yeah all the fire and lava and particles in the ashlands are pretty heavy on the fps

i guess it will be optimized in the next few patches

[high sorrel]

this is what we are having every 30-40 seconds after killing them all with even more off screen where the red arrow is

1 more shaman and a 2 star greydwarf i know at the least are that way

[frosty frost]

Well they do spawn faster at night, what about in day?

[high sorrel]

this is running into the night and day consistent in both

[valid bane]

might be a spawner near by?

[high sorrel]

weve cleared out over 8 spawners in this one black forest

[valid bane]

;o

[high sorrel]

this is also spawn island for context

we had 3 trolls spawn back to back during the image above

this just isnt normal in my time with the game those numbers above are what i expect from raids not normal everyday spawns

[valid bane]

on that spot or everywhere else too?

[high sorrel]

everywhere else too

we have been running far and wide to find a safe place and spawns are like this everywhere

aaaaaaaand as im typing this 4th troll just spawned were in day now

day or night its constant CONSTANT spawns

[valid bane]

maybe it is redemption for all the graydwafs we killed

[high sorrel]

and now 5 greydwarves spawned with him still in daytime

[high sorrel]

(2 of which were 1 star and 2 star)

[valid bane]

who know maybe a server restart could fix it

[high sorrel]

everything seems to spawn atleast 3x as much always in trios im noticing

[high sorrel]

tried that as well

[valid bane]

😦

[frosty frost]

Is it happening only on the server or on all of your worlds?

[high sorrel]

yet to check that yet but will be testing that in a sec

this world has been incredibly bad luck from the start honestly

[valid bane]

and you are on the test server?

[high sorrel]

public test build

[valid bane]

maybe they sneaked some 'tweaks' in lol

[high sorrel]

5TH TROLL JSUT SPAWNED LIKE DUDE THESE RATES????

[true steeple]

Public test and stable release are now the same version

[frosty frost]

Well the rates for most of us are quite normal 😄 problem is somewhere on your end

[high sorrel]

we have had 3 trolls in this day alone all at daytime in oen day phase

[valid bane]

[high sorrel]

im noticing all trolls spawned in the exact same place too

[true steeple]

Drink a love potion for even more trolls

[frosty frost]

Put campfire there 🙂

[high sorrel]

trying workbench strat now

[frosty frost]

Campfires will do better since they are not attacked on sight 🙂

[high sorrel]

workbenches still suffice yeah?

[valid bane]

yep

[high sorrel]

gotcha

i forget does it only prevent spawns while its burning or even when put out

[frosty frost]

even put out

[high sorrel]

thank you

[tranquil lion]

Anyone know a good way to blow up your whole build and start over besides just disassembling manually?

Any bombs? Lure a troll? Whats the strat here

[high sorrel]

hoping this works out the greydwarves are incredibly frustrating in the constant numbers we are experiencing but the trolls are making things unplayable

[frosty frost]

Destroy bottom layer and wait, you can try to summon trolls also

[true steeple]

Trollstav is the best way to destroy things

[tranquil lion]

I used almost exclusively 1x1s for my floors and i love the way it looks but i feel like i could get an fps boost going back to 2x2s.

Is it worth it? Or just wait till i find a new location? Just gotta beat the elder now b4 i can get to the swamp anyway so i suppose we'll be moving soon

[willow raft]

No mods what so ever?

[high sorrel]

never modded the game

[willow raft]

Strange behavior from the game, you could always try and verify your game files via steam.

[frosty frost]

If you want to move then why not, tho i usually stay in meadows the whole game just making farms and outposts elsewhere

[high sorrel]

campfires in the exact spot they were spawning seems to have fixed things thank you

[sullen lynx]

After the update, i cant connect to my server.
"Failed to send data k_EResultNoConnection"
No Mods installed. Just Vanilla since release

[willow raft]

have you validated your game files via steam or similar?

[sullen lynx]

yes

[covert hedge]

hi ! ss there more than 1 tetra fish cave per world ?

[frosty frost]

Yep! 🙂

[covert hedge]

oh great ! how many on average ?

[frosty frost]

Eeeeh.. no idea really, you can try to look at the map generator, it should be able to show them to you

[covert hedge]

ok thx alot 😄

oh I have a last questions, do tetra fish respawns ? it's been hundreds of ig hours since I fished them and the pond is still empty

[frosty frost]

I think it should? Not 100% sure on that but other fish do respawn

[zinc mirage]

any tips on streamlining the process of finding lox and making hares easier to hunt?

[ripe bone]

a lox will practically spawn right in front of you they're so awkward

[zinc mirage]

sadly, we have just hit mistlands and the meat platter is our main food item...we find ourselves constantly running out of Lox and Hare specifically

[true steeple]

You could start farming lox

[quasi vault]

I heard ooze bombs are good to hunt hares, otherwise the amber staff is probably the best choice

[zinc mirage]

are Hares tameable to farm, too?

[ripe bone]

the amber staff, like from terraria

[frosty frost]

For hare hunting i suggest to actually make ||staff of ambers|| <--- spoiler from after you have new cores

[true steeple]

No. Jump attacking will help a lot if you’re trying to use a melee weapon, as it allows you to move while attacking.

[zinc mirage]

that sucks. we have a party of four and even with all of us hunting it takes an hour or two to get enough food to last more than a handful of expeditions- which puts a damper on our shorter play sessions due to busy schedules

[ripe bone]

i think it will get much easier to do food stuff in the ashlands so there is that

[quasi vault]

You should visit haldor, he sells eggs that will allow you to make a recipe that's entirely farmable

[chilly shadow]

Youll also need jotun puffs, but until you can farm them should be able to scavenge a decent amount

[zinc mirage]

luckily we already have a farm for jotun puffs and magecaps

it's just the meat that is scarce for us

[chilly shadow]

Then yeah, get some eggs and your problems will quickly diminish.

[echo sparrow]

for sure, you can easily farm up tons of chickens fast

[zinc mirage]

the only thing we haven't done is set up livestock farms

[echo sparrow]

and all their drops are useful--chicken meat a solid food, eggs also useful in the omlettes, and feathers always useful

[ripe bone]

do that thing, good thing do.
