[zinc mirage]

this is two of the parties first playthroughs, and the two others have never actually beaten the mistalands boss. we are getting to the point where this is all new to us anyway

[chilly shadow]

If you still want the hares for the skins i normally just place some sharp stakes near any safe spots i can occasionally check in the mistlands.

[ripe bone]

bruh how do i get 8 barley flour from a full night of windmilling in a completely open windy field

[zinc mirage]

I have three stacks of skins at the moment-

[ripe bone]

between two windmills..

[chilly shadow]

Nice.

[chilly shadow]

Faulty mills

[quasi vault]

That's how windmills work, they need wind and the placement doesn't matter just the wind strength

[ripe bone]

i'm about to place down 10 windmills istg

[quasi vault]

When you need flour just be aware of the wind and when you have strong winds make sure you fill the windmills as they will process very fast

[zinc mirage]

I have 5 down and I always make sure to split them evenly so I dont have to worry about lack of wind as much

[ripe bone]

man

[zinc mirage]

also which biome is Haldor in again?

[ripe bone]

black forest

and hold on now the cooking skill has a chance for bonus yield when crafting and when taking something out of the oven??

[zinc mirage]

yessir

[ripe bone]

there is an extreme disparity between the value of cooking and farming skills versus crafting

[zinc mirage]

I would assume I need to buy two eggs?

[frosty frost]

Yep

[quasi vault]

Whatever you expect it to cost, quadruple that amount and then you will have about 20% of what 2 of them will cost

[zinc mirage]

I had already checked the price

I wasnt expecting it to be THE most expensive item

anything I need to know about building a chicken coop?

[quasi vault]

Shelter and fire

This is a bit advanced but I build it so that when there's many chicken some of them can get out and just wander around the base, that will allow the remaining ones to keep breeding and avoid reaching the cap

[ripe bone]

i feel like theres got to have been someone that just....bought eggs consistently and cooked with them..

[echo sparrow]

lolololol

[quasi vault]

4500$ omelet that's worst than a salad that you can easily farm

[ripe bone]

mfs before the bog witch update be like

[echo sparrow]

i mean TECHNICALLY it's strictly better stat-wise but, yeah, the cost-value disparity is...pretty stark there

[quasi vault]

Yeah you're right for some reason I though it was plains food since I got so used to getting them from the towers and having eggs during the plains

[ripe bone]

bruhh the plains are just straight up the prettiest biome i swear.

minus the tar pits and weird dirt gridlines

[zinc mirage]

does the ground of the coop have to be solid ground or can it be made of wood

[ripe bone]

it can be whatever

[echo sparrow]

it should however be completely enclosed (at least one breeding pair) to protect the expensive investment from the ODIN FORSAKEN BATS!

[zinc mirage]

do I just toss the eggs on the ground?

[echo sparrow]

yes but they need to be in the "warm" radius of fire

and they can't be stacked (i.e. drop 1 egg at a time)--it should say (warm) I think if it's in the right conditions to hatch

[zinc mirage]

it is saying this is too cold

nevermind it changed its mind

[little trench]

for vineberry farm, just do like this?

[lament hinge]

i believe so

may as well double side it too

[little trench]

aight

[covert vector]

How do i find a locally saved world on my pc

[silk fable]

Does the askvin cape bonus work with the moder power?

[silk fable]

[LEGACY ONLY] For windows users "%appdata%..\locallow\IronGate\Valheim\worlds"

[STEAM CLOUD] For windows users, Your saves will be in this directory:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata<your steam id>\892970\remote\worlds"
If there is only one user your steam id is the 8 digit number folder

Linux users may be able to find their seed under the path: "~/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/worlds/"

[echo sparrow]

they can have trouble though grabbing both sides of just regular 1 thick walls--separate two walls by like a meter gap and plant on opposite sides to "double side" it

this is the method i use for mnimalist farming--I found frankly that just covering a vertical surface like you can see further in the background, tends to give better results than attempting to plan a field of 'minimalist' trusses for the vines

the greater surface area of just doing a wall seems to lead to more vine coverage more chances to spawn berry clusters and more reliable/faster berries produced overall

those little sticks hardly ever produce a berry or two between all of them

[zinc mirage]

how long does it usually take for eggs to hatch

[frosty frost]

30 minutes

[little trench]

ah dang i just planted one on each side. oh well ill fix when i have more seeds, thx m8

[echo sparrow]

it might work, it should tell you pretty quick I think, if you mouse over the initial ashvine plant whether there's enough room, uncovered sky, etc. (any problems which would prevent growth)

[minor fractal]

I have an old seed/world. Went back to it and after going through a couple portals and started going thru the town, I noticed some buildings self-destructing. I was able to collect all the materials . But I did nothing other than walk through the buildings. I exited the world in case more buildings imploded. Can anyone shed light on this?

[opaque shoal]

why are my graphics settings maxing themselves out whenever i join a world?

[frosty frost]

Well shedding some light will depend on how old the world is, if it is very old (before maybe hearth and home) then how building and stability works might have been changed, i remember someone telling me that they had to redo whole base precisely because of this and it seemed to also "self-destruct"

[minor fractal]

thanks. that does explain a lot. The world was an original from just after Valheim was released. The newer buildings don't seem to have this issue. Thank you very much !

[frosty frost]

You are welcome!

[rough moss]

is this where I ask for help for game crashes?

[frosty frost]

Yep 🙂 In what way does it crash?

[rough moss]

on launch from Steam. It worked fine yesterday, but it did an update this morning and now it wont launch

[frosty frost]

Are you using any mods perchance?

[rough moss]

I actually removed all the mods just in case and still the same issue

[frosty frost]

I would try to validate files if you didnt already and if that doesent work then clean reinstall (also remove every and all traces of mods in the pc, i am really not knowledgeable about them but they mess stuff up too often)

[rough moss]

ok, I'll give that a try

I did the clean install and deleted all files remaining after uninstall and that's what finally fixed it. thanks

[frosty frost]

Glad it worked!

[covert hedge]

found a second cave 😄

[silk fable]

Does the askvin cape bonus work with the moder power?

[frail cave]

no

[silk fable]

Is there a way to reset dungeon locations without using mods?

[frosty frost]

You want them to have loot again?

[vernal patrol]

So what's worth it from the bog witch? Like does it have anything important? The Pungent Pebbles look worthwhile but idk. Cause double taming.

[true steeple]

You’ll be able to make the mead for increased movespeed and another for increased carry weight

[narrow python]

spices for feasts, many of them are worth it. Serving tray of course. Squirrel hamstrings for speed potion, candle wicks and ivy for the decoration. Scythe handle if you want to farm a lot

[silk fable]

Yeah, a full reset of those dungeons would be ok too

[frosty frost]

Then i dont think there is a command for that sadly

[marsh lintel]

Hey, so the new patch doesnt let me place food and drinks in freebuild... i didnt see any toggle for feecraft in-game or pre-game settings...

On my solo just-trying-an-idea build world, how do i access that?

On a dedicated server, how do i access that?

(Xbox)

[real nebula]

As of last patch you need to have the new "No Craft Cost" world modifier enabled as well, which is separate from "No Build Cost"

[true steeple]

Unless something has changed since the public test, no craft cost isn’t a world modifier. It has to be set with a command.

[marsh lintel]

Oh, do you know the command?

[true steeple]

setkey nocraftcost should work

[reef pine]

is there a modded chat ? with help for mods

[dawn pond]

Does anyone know a fix for this? Simply opening Valheim frequently kills my friend's internet - like the entire router go down

[subtle parrot]

Are they using a VPN?

[dawn pond]

No VPN but they have 2 routers in bridge mode

[tranquil lion]

Can i lay out a grid of 1x1s for carrots or do they need more room than that to be able to grow?

[steep tusk]

That should be fine.

[tranquil lion]

Spacing is fine but the wood takes up too much room i think

[timber charm]

Hello all I just joined because I was wondering if there is a way to have diveger populate a location outside of the mistlands and if so how I would do so.

Also so a YouTube video claiming that dverger can be breed like boars I'd dragon beds are built also wanted to verify this information about them I've been able to find us very unclear about dverger and what we can do with them.

Asking all this because I want to have a clan hall populated by them and myself I am playing solo so gets kinda awkward going into a huge place I've built and it just being empty

Autocorrect really killed me there if anything seeing this is unsure what I'm saying I'm asking about dwarves

[steep tusk]

Also so a YouTube video claiming that dverger can be breed like boars

Either blatantly lying to you or has a specific mod.

[timber charm]

That sucks makes sense tho

[dawn pond]

Seems to have been a driver issue. Might be fixed on his end now. Thanks for the help tho!

[vernal patrol]

So how outdated is the wiki? Cause I'm looking at best foods for stamina and hp on the wiki but apparently it's outdated? Cause it says the best is Eyescream for stamina and serpent stew for hp. Idek.

[dawn pond]

Scroll down and look at the breakdown per biome

[subtle parrot]

Sorry can't be any real help

[willow jungle]

What should I change on the settings to improve the fps in my base, without it looking ugly? I am used to having 144 fps or higher in other games. Depending on where I am in my base, I have drops up until 30 fps. This highly effects the refresh rate and responsiveness. In the last screenshot you can see my pc specs

[glass barn]

Dang what are your instances at inside the base as the server im in the main hall has over 12k...

Nvm Legally blind here only 6k instances try capping the framerate to your monitors refresh

[tender tinsel]

can boars get higher lvl by breeding?

[steep tusk]

No.

[willow jungle]

I think it's because I have a boar and wolf farm close to my base

[glass barn]

That can indeed cause load stress ive heard

[sonic tiger]

I'm building a chimney for my black marble base, can smoke travel through cage walls?

[steep tusk]

No.

[sonic tiger]

bit of a shame, you would think by looking at them that smoke would go through. Thank you for the quick response.

[little trench]

what are the strongest walls to defend against raids?

[steep tusk]

You don't need to make a way for the smoke to actually get out.
You just need enough space so the particles time out and despawn before they start moving down.

[steep tusk]

Black Marble.

[little trench]

aight ty

[true steeple]

The best thing to do in a raid is go outside. Then the enemies have nothing to break

[little trench]

i like to afk in my base and ignore raids

[true steeple]

Turn raids off then? They’ll break through that marble eventually

[little trench]

nah i wanna fight raids sometimes too

[compact heath]

Thats called an Island Base, far enough away from shallows and landmass, I love the ones 100% surrounded by Ocean Biome. 100% spawnproof except for bat raids and Drake Raids (can be turned off by killing Moder) and I never actually had anything else spawn there ever. Bats is what you want to not kill to make it afkable or stay in an enclosed area and also have your tames fully enclosed then you're safe

and if you want to fight something just hang out at a non island base

[willow raft]

Have some wolves or loxes somewhere in a deep pit or with high earthen walls and the bats will annoy them till the bats die.
Better is having some shaman base defense though.

[steep tusk]

It's just lox 😭

[balmy ore]

anyone know why my logitech E key isn't working in the game anymore? :/

[frosty frost]

It probably have something to do with you making it an autoclicker 🤷‍♂️ just use it normaly

[lament hinge]

theyll pass on whatever stars they have but it wont increase level at all

[summer sand]

Oh am I supposed to have more than just onion seeds?
-# I am in montains right now

[tired root]

Can you elaborate a bit?

[frail cave]

do you have a butcher's table yet?

[summer sand]

I started farming but I only have onion seeds that I got from the villages in plains

[frail cave]

onion seeds come from chests on mountains

[summer sand]

since I started farming just a minute ago I thought I could have more than just onion seeds

[summer sand]

Oh I found In plains actually

[frail cave]

then it must've been some poi overlap

[tired root]

Do you mean that should you have more seeds for different crops?

[summer sand]

Is there more than just onion seeds knowing I have reached plains?

[lilac coyote]

Carrots, turnips...

[summer sand]

where to find those 😓

[lilac coyote]

Carrots are in Black Forest and Turnips in Swamp.

[tired root]

Yeah, carrots are found in Black forest (white seed flowers) and turnips in Swamps (yellow seed flowers)

[summer sand]

Ohhh tytyty

[tired root]

Ah right, I recall you were that fella who didn't farm until during Mountains.

[summer sand]

Ye, is there any farming tips?

[subtle parrot]

Have open sky, no trees or roofs above, don't plant too close together or too close to structures or random rocks on the ground

[summer sand]

oh done W

[tired root]

Just like @subtle parrot said.

Also you want to have walls around the farm area so enemies don't break your crops.

[summer sand]

do I need to farm seeds frequently or do I just replant each time

[summer sand]

I have built a stone ones, should I have a door too?

[tired root]

You can plant crops to grow seeds. One seed-crop provides 3 seeds.

[summer sand]

awesome

[tired root]

As long as you can access there but enemies can't.

[summer sand]

ohh good good

[subtle parrot]

Generally the first few crops you should replant them all or keep 1/3 and replant 2/3

[tired root]

That also depends on how many seeds one can find. 👍

[subtle parrot]

Fair

[tired root]

Both carrots and turnips not only unlock new food recipes but are also needed for one Cauldron upgrade.

[summer sand]

Ohh I have one upgrade

I found carrots, but I am now struggling to find the seeds in swamp

[subtle parrot]

They are pretty rare, I've found them hiding behind trees occasionally very hard to spot

[summer sand]

ohh I will try

are they different from thistles?

[subtle parrot]

Yes

Thistle is just thistle, turnip seeds are from yellow flowers

[summer sand]

oh noted tyty

[tired root]

There are another upgrades, one per biome starting from swamps.

[summer sand]

Oh I think I skipped the swamp one

[tired root]

Yeah, that's the one that need both carrots and turnips.

[summer sand]

How lond does planting takes

5 in game days?

[tired root]

Around 2-3 ingame days they grow fully.

[summer sand]

Excellent

[tired root]

They are pickable when they have grown.

When the crop has "Healthy" tag on it you know it will grow.

[summer sand]

it has!

[tranquil lion]

what do i need to do to be ready for the swamp? I got there and... everything wants to kill me

[stoic trench]

Most important thing is probably solid food- you’re gonna want the best food that you can get from the Black Forest.

[tranquil lion]

Ive been doing boar jerky, carrot soup, and deer stew

[stoic trench]

Wouldn’t hurt to bring some mead too- poison resist and healing

[tranquil lion]

My issue is that i do no damage

[stoic trench]

Probably swap the jerky for minced meat sauce. What weapon are you using?

[tranquil lion]

I tried axe, sword, spear, bow w/ flint/fire

Everything just has a ton of health. (All bronze btw) and fine wood bow

[stoic trench]

Hmm doesn’t get much better than that; what are you fighting specifically?

Abominations might be best avoided until you get some new weapons

[tranquil lion]

abomination i figured to avoid. Barely got away then a wraith came and killed me

The draugrs dont seem so bad tho

[stoic trench]

Ahh, yeah definitely avoid the swamp at night for the moment!

[subtle parrot]

Don't be out at night

[tranquil lion]

It wasnt though :/

unless waking up in the morning counts as night

[stoic trench]

Stick to finding some crypts, get some iron back to your forge, find turnips asap 🙂

Yeah, wraiths only come out at night. Usually.

[quasi vault]

There's one time wraith spawns inside the buildings of the swamps

[subtle parrot]

Wraiths only come out at night, if when you wake up and it doesn't say "day ***" don't go out yet

[stoic trench]

Oh is there? I actually didn’t know that… never seen it lol learned something new

[quasi vault]

Those buildings are not common but it's a thing

[stoic trench]

Now I have to find one and trap it as a pet

[tranquil lion]

Also btw can you parry with the big skeleton shield?

[real nebula]

You can't, it's a tower shield

All tower shields are unable to parry, but have higher base block than round shields or bucklers

More reliable for normal blocking if parrying is inconsistent for you

[true steeple]

Tower shields have much higher block force (knockback) than other shields so they can split groups.
You can check if a blocking item can parry by looking for a parry bonus stat. Without a parry bonus, an item can't parry.

[analog kiln]

Is there any way to tell if I've spawnproofed an area enough? I'd like to start afking in my base to help animals breed and whatnot but am worried that I might get raided by something in the meantime, Currently live on an island just outside of a plains biome that I've covered the direction facing me with workbenches but I'm not entirely sure if they can spawn in the water just off shore or something else I may have forgotten (I'm aware its not necessarily the channel for it but if theres a client-side mod that works to do it I'd be fine with that, cant do serverside because of xbox cross players on the server)

[edgy spade]

does anyone have a reccomendation for a valhiem server host, i wana make a server for xbox and pc

[real nebula]

You should be able to force a raid if you open the world in solo and do devcommands

[analog kiln]

I am server owner and have a devcommands mod so I could theorhetically do that on the server aye?

[real nebula]

Then yeah, just keep a world backup handy

[analog kiln]

I mean I should be able to handle any raid that does spawn, we just killed Bonemass last night so drakes/bats would be slightly annoying but I'm more worried about trolls or something else running around and breaking everything lol

[real nebula]

I don't believe there's a way to force spawn a specific event, randomevent should start one on you depending on your world's keys, and you should also be able to stopevent to stop it

[analog kiln]

Afaik even if you spawnproof everything you'll still be susceptible to drakes/bats anyways due to them spawning in the air and the spawn coverage being spherical correct?

[frail cave]

you can do event [event name]

[real nebula]

Oh hecc how did I miss that

[analog kiln]

Would I need to pick the coords for the raid or will it just drop on my head?

Nvm autofill says leaving blank would be current pos

Tyvm for all of the assistance!

[analog kiln]

If you have a large enough tree farm are you basically gaurenteed to atleast break even with seeds or besides beech are you basically destined to always be lacking in some way?

I had a small oak farm that was profitable with seeds but after 2 poor harvests I was out sadly

[stoic trench]

On regular settings, I don’t think any tree farm can replenish itself reliably? Of course, it’s all RNG. Nothing wrong with tree farms, just know that you’ll occasionally have to get more seeds elsewhere. With oak trees though, it’s tougher I think. Probably better to farm birch.

[analog kiln]

With beech I've always profited but its also standard wood so I imagine that with not abysmal luck thats prettymuch gaurenteed but yeah thats kinda what I assumed

Birch I've never broken even or come really even close so I figured that it might be worth atleast checking

[stoic trench]

I usually find myself a nice birch forest in the plains and build a portal there

[quasi vault]

You get more than one acorn per oak on average so that's always what I use

[stoic trench]

With regular wood, I’ll just make piles by the portal and bring back as much fine wood as I can. Then, if I run low on wood, I can just grab from the piles.

[analog kiln]

yeah regular woods never really been a huge issue, I just harvested 35 trees and got 75 seeds

[crimson lotus]

any idea on how can i make the foundation

[analog kiln]

And core woods never really been a massive issue in terms of need so its always been finewood because portals everywhere

I do live in a plains and near a bunch of plains so I'll probably just have my birch trees there but I wasnt sure if there was a certain "break even" point with oak that if you just had enough trees it would on average break even

Sorta like flipping a goin 5 times, you might get 5 heads in a row, but when you go to 1000 times it averages closer to 50/50

[balmy ore]

it worked for over 3 years now

[subtle parrot]

What do you mean by foundation?

[subtle parrot]

Idk what the drop rate is but it's definitely less than 50%

[quasi vault]

It's less than 50% but you get 2-4 so you get like 1.5 acorn per oaks

[subtle parrot]

Never gotten that good of a drop rate when farming oaks personally

[analog kiln]

From the wiki

[crimson lotus]

like the support for the roofs

[analog kiln]

On average you should theorhetically profit acorns

[quasi vault]

No shot that it's accurate, you can get more than 3 acorn per tree on 1x

[analog kiln]

couldnt tell you just saying that I got it from the wiki

[subtle parrot]

Must be nice lol I've literally always had a net loss when farming oaks

[analog kiln]

Its probably a sample size issue

if you only farm 10 at a time then you have the potential to not get enough with bad rng, then it just keeps getting worse and worse odds

If you go with 50 however you'll start hitting that average more often

[subtle parrot]

I've done 50 oaks many times, never got more than enough to replant 30

[quasi vault]

I've been using oaks as my only source of fine wood for a few years, it is sustainable

I do not believe you for one second

[analog kiln]

Seems like bad rng then

I mean it is absolutely possible, as is flipping a coin and getting heads 1000 times

[subtle parrot]

Ok cool story lol

[analog kiln]

its just unlikely is all

[subtle parrot]

Yeh for sure, I'm not saying it isn't

[analog kiln]

This is for birch by the way, so it seems like thats why it feels like a net loss with them always

[quasi vault]

You are the only that's making up stories

[analog kiln]

There is no need to be rude lol, it is an entirely possible scenario

[subtle parrot]

If you wanna be an asshole just go somewhere else.

[quasi vault]

I just intervene to correct people missinforming people about tree farms. Birch are not sustainable, oaks are and should be the one used as a fine wood source

If saying the truth instead of lies is being an asshole than you should reflect on what that means about yourself

[subtle parrot]

I simply stated my personal experience, if you wanna say I'm making shit up, then fine. But I never misinformed anyone.

[quasi vault]

You are not the one who wrote something that I felt the need to correct

[subtle parrot]

Welp, my apologies then

[analog kiln]

I mean the truth in this case is slightly subjective, as Fukov stated that in their experience they werent a net positive. They didnt have the numbers or experience to say that it was so that was what they argued. You then turned around and accused them of fabricating things in a rough manner thereby seeming like the aggressor. You were in the right all you needed to do was proove the numbers and everything would be fine, instead you decided to be aggressive about it therefore I said that you should be a bit nicer about it is all

[stoic trench]

I’ll take the blame, I advised farming oak over birch- my bad 🙂 no big deal, all is well

[analog kiln]

Lol nah its my bad I continued the argument when I shouldnt have

[quasi vault]

I just think it was just a fair conclusion on my part because the expected amount of seeds from 50 oaks would be so much higher that it is pretty much impossible. People just don't count that kind of things and it's easy to misremember, exaggerate or just poorly estimate. I think it's just always best, no matter what you look at, to look at the data instead of personals stories.

[willow jungle]

Just checking here. I have an automatic wolf farm and lots of beehives. Therefore, I can make a lot of Wolf Jerky with low to almost 0 effort. I just found the third trader with the name ||The Bog Witch|| and was looking into what you can do with it: ||I discovered some +Health meals, with a duration of 50 minutes, with 35 and 45 health+stamina, but you need a lot of different ingredients to make them||. Would you say it's worth it? For reference, I am at the Plains biome regarding progression

[tranquil lion]

Ok ive been runningaround this bloody swamp for forever now... WHERE THE HECK DO I FIND IRON

[quasi vault]

@willow jungle They are absolutely worth it, you only use about 8 different food, often food that's now irrelevant to you and you likely have leftover of and you get a good balanced food that last for 50 minutes and you get 10 portions of it.

[true steeple]

Look for a small brick building with iron torches and a locked gate

[tranquil lion]

Theres no iron veins?

[subtle parrot]

Scrap piles drop scrap iron

[true steeple]

No, the elder drops the swamp key and now you have to use it

[tranquil lion]

👍

[true steeple]

^ These piles are found inside the locked buildings

[tranquil lion]

I did go into a crypt but left after dropping a map marker cus inventory was full

[willow jungle]

Oh, so you get 10 portions instead of 1? This will give me 10 portions for just 5 thistles, instead of 50 thistles? (Same for the other ingredients)

[true steeple]

Yes, so that recipe is for 500 minutes of food

[willow jungle]

Wtf, that's crazy

[true steeple]

Have you bought cured squirrel hamstrings yet?

[quasi vault]

It's something you need to put down somewhere and eat from it, each time you eat it you will eat part of it and you will see the feast gradually getting eaten, they look amazing on tables

[willow jungle]

So with just ||3 Deer Stew, 5 Thistles, 4 Queen's Jam and 1 thing I can't read the name of but I bought it at the trader||, you get 10x 50 minutes of the ||Black Forest Buffer Platter||?

@true steeple nvm, @quasi vault just explained it xD

Thanks both of you!

Speaking of food. I have a very hard time finding the Giant Herring fish in the Swamps. What I did was go to different Swamp biomes, small and big, and just walk by the shore until I reached another biome. I can only find Leeches in the water 😂 . However, I don't have this issue with all other types of fish. What could I do better here?

[willow jungle]

Yes, but haven't craft it yet, why?

[true steeple]

They make the second-most useful mead in Valheim, in my opinion

[willow jungle]

Add the Fenris set to it and you can probably run fast AF xD

[willow jungle]

What would you say is the first?

[true steeple]

Lightfoot mead

[echo sparrow]

adding increased see drop rate to Elder power could both help treefarms and buff the Elder power consistently ranked as underpowered by the community

[chilly forge]

The patch notes mentioned a "no craft cost" modifier so that you can use the serving tray for free but I'm not seeing that modifier. Anyone know?

[true steeple]

You need to set it with commands
(Setkey nocraftcost)

[jaunty kayak]

Will there be a discount for 1.0 release?

[polar topaz]

Hello, does the Bog Witch appear in the old world?

[tired root]

In unexplored areas, yes.

[polar topaz]

oh thank goodness. I've been playing this game since it first came out, took a long break, and now that I'm back on it, I was worried that I'd have to start a new world to get to the bog witch. thank you!

[bitter kiln]

Looking to start a plains farm/base. Any suggestions on locations?

[buoyant peak]

Plains

You are literally just asking for suggestions on where to build a PLAINS base

[tired root]

No problem. New content will always appear in unexplored areas.

[slow forge]

"nocraftcost is not a recogonized command"

[true steeple]

Are you using setkey nocraftcost or just nocraftcost?

[slow forge]

i tried both

[true steeple]

Did you use the devcommands command first?

[slow forge]

yes

[willow jungle]

It feels like I am being stupid AF here. I can;t figure out how to place these items on the table, so you can consume the meal

[slow forge]

what do i need to type exactly \

[true steeple]

It's working fine for me right now
Are you using chat or the developer console?

[slow forge]

developer console

[sleek herald]

Serving tray, Right click, place (I think)

[true steeple]

setkey nocraftcost

[willow jungle]

Thanks!

[slow forge]

sweet, it worked that time. thank you mate

[strong stump]

hey guys i cant join my friend's server anyone knows how can i fix that ?
it sends me back to menu before the entering the password section

[bitter kiln]

Coast, high ground, peninsula, island, stone pillar, etc. lol

Just looking want to pick a good spot before I spent like 10 hours building something, and I've never build a base in the plains. I think my friends usually built that one in prior playthroughs

[subtle parrot]

Coast is generally good imo, doesn't necessarily need to be a peninsula or island. Put a dock for boats, so you can easily get out and explore the next few biomes.

[echo sparrow]

ideally coast bordering on mistlands, set up a single farm that farm all the crops currently (the first 5 in the plains section, the 2 mistlands shrooms in the mistlands secton, and ashvine growing wherever)

[bitter kiln]

Okay, thank you!

[bitter kiln]

Smart, thank you! Never played mist or ashlands. last 2 playthroughs were both up to plains since that's all that was out at the time. Pretty excited to finally see some new stuff

[narrow python]

When using shift+click to craft 5 items at once, do I get XP equivalent to crafting five items separately, or only as if I was crafting one item?

[echo sparrow]

so no magic yet, that's a treat IMO

[echo sparrow]

I think it actually does adjust to give the appropriate XP (i.e. as if you crafted 5)

[dusk trail]

Can a howling cavern bug out and spawn inside of a mountain? I see the mark on the map and have scouted that whole section of the mountain as far down as I can come (mistlands next to it) and haven't seen any cavern/entrance

[true steeple]

Did you get the marker before the bog witch update?

If so, you need new markers

[dusk trail]

Oh

Haha yes I did - ill check it out, thanks!

[true steeple]

Don't forget to delete your old markers first

[dusk trail]

Worked (at least the markings moved slightly). again, thanks for the help 😀
Have a nice day/ evening

[faint wasp]

How do I enable no cost kn my dedicated server on Xbox?

[true steeple]

You cannot use devcommands on dedicated servers as only the host can use commands.

[faint wasp]

Ohhh ok

Thank you

[kind sand]

is the sealed tower and the howling cavern, like the traders? Only at the first spot you go to?

[quasi vault]

no, there's a mini boss and the chest at all of them

[kind sand]

weird, i just got to the second one and no tower

[true steeple]

Did you get the marker before the bog witch released?

[kind sand]

yepp

[true steeple]

You need new markers, old markers may be inaccurate

[stoic trench]

Blob out here doing Odin’s work 🙏

[kind sand]

ok, the first one is still there

[true hare]

I've never been able to join a multilayer game without someone sending me an invite through the Xbox app. I'm trying to play with a friend of mine who is on steam. After finding his server in the list and entering the password it says disconnected

The same thing happens when trying to join people on the Xbox app unless I join from an invite. Is there anyway for a steam user to send an Xbox user an invite

Btw I'm on PC but I play valheim through the xbox app

[tranquil lion]

will upgrading the forge/workbench give access to new recipes? Or just allow higher levels of upgrades to crafted equipment?

[buoyant peak]

Both

[tranquil lion]

Workbench is at lvl4 and forge is at level 3. But the upgrades are kinda expensive

[noble vault]

Do wisp torches get attacked by monsters in the mistlands?

[frail cave]

they aren't attacked on sight, but they also don't spawnproof

[buoyant peak]

No

[mellow lodge]

i could have sworn my torches got attacked when the seeker solder got into tantrum mode. ie, when he couldn't get to me, so he took it out on nearby torches. however, my torch was ontop of a wooden beam, so maybe that was the difference

[frail cave]

yes, that's perfectly normal behaviour, enemies will attack any player-built structure in that case

including walls, roofing, floors, benches, all of it

but if an enemy is calm, they'll only attack certain structures, neither the wisp torch nor wooden beams are among those. while there's a lot of overlap with player base structures, not all player base structures are attacked on sight, and not all structures that are attacked on sight are player base, my spreadsheet covers this distinction https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lGv_8efnTaAjYSLKGaquMbulrbalgBB3_69CaQ_54L4/

[manic gyro]

You can set keys on dedicated servers. If I remember correctly, it should work by appending "-setkey NoBuildCost" to the argument list of the dedicated server

You can find other keys on the wiki: https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Global_Keys

[willow jungle]

Anyone with expierence in fishing that can take a look at this please? 🐟 🎣

[ripe bone]

go like kinda out from the shore

i mean i found them from shore, Had to really pay attention to see them but they're there just as much as troll-fish are

so probably uhh look slower or something?

[willow jungle]

I tried walking next to the shore and also with the Longship at Rudder-speed

But you are saying the frequenty is the same as Troll fish?

[torpid raft]

yo guys, is tower shield better agaisnt bonemass?

[true steeple]

Parrying bosses won't stagger them so tower shields are more useful, but it's not worth making if you already have another shield if you only want to use it for a boss

[steep tusk]

No shield at all is best again Bonemass.

[ripe bone]

Kinda seems like it, Sometimes i struggle to find them and them i come across a huge patch, goes for both.

[tranquil lion]

Can you have more than one mead active at a time?

[buoyant peak]

Only different meads

[true steeple]

Yes, just not multiple healing, multiple stamina meads or multiple eitr meads active at once. (For this rule, tasty meads are not considered stamina meads)

[tranquil lion]

Right so you couldnt have a minor/medium health potion but you could have poison+frost resist?

[true steeple]

Yes

[tranquil lion]

👍

[steep tusk]

You can have every single one of the new meads active simultaneously.

[true steeple]

Why look at gameplay if you can cover your screen in mead timers?

[steep tusk]

Just get a bigger screen 😏

[true steeple]

A bigger screen for even more timers? Good idea!

[tranquil lion]

Theres no option to make hotkeys for meads and foods without mods is there?

Or i guess is there even a way to change 1-10 to be different keys?

[true steeple]

Not right now, unfortunately

[gleaming pewter]

so ive just taken my first fort and used the battering ram to do so. i cant deconstruct it with the hammer to move it to the next fort that i need to take but im scared to just destroy it with my axe. will i get all the materials used to build it back if i destroy it by hand?

[steep tusk]

What happens when you destroy your boat? (as you cannot deconstruct it)

[compact heath]

I think the meads are my new favourite thing from that update

[gleaming pewter]

ah okay thank you, i figured it would be the same but wasnt sure

[steep tusk]

Second for me.
Primary favorite thing was the 2 new buildables that make the Cauldron less cluttered.

[compact heath]

yeah its same as cart boats etc

[compact heath]

actually yeah you're right and we can build bigger kitchen / meaderies now

its like Hearth & Home on steroids

[steep tusk]

It's good to separate things out now because you know DN will bring even more food. (And hopefully something to do with Bonemaw Meat....)

[quasi vault]

Using a few potions you may get a bad surprise at first, there's so many status up there that poison or fire will show on a second row which is much harder to see than being on the left of the row

[faint wasp]

How do I disable it afte

[quasi vault]

Worst part is that it was done just because a couple people used all the potions that they spawned in and saw that it overlapped the inventory but it would never happen during normal gameplay

[vernal patrol]

Is there a way to NOT screw over the deep north when it's added to my world? I'm asking cause I have a world going and I don't wanna screw up deep north spawns when that comes out. I know it can sometimes be buggy but I want to prevent it as much as possible.

If I recall you just leave parts of the map unexplored? So it can spawn there?

[steep tusk]

Don't go up there.

[ripe bone]

map out the whole area so it loads in properly 🫢

[vernal patrol]

wdym "up there"? Is it gonna be in the north area?

[faint wasp]

How do I disable setkey commands?

[steep tusk]

You know how the Ashlands is "the south area"?

[vernal patrol]

Yup.

[steep tusk]

Same thing, but north.

[vernal patrol]

Wait then where's Mistlands? Is that west or east?

[steep tusk]

Everything not Ash or North is everywhere along the middle 80% of the map.

Ash gets bottom, North gets top.

[ripe bone]

in screenshots

[vernal patrol]

Gotcha. So basically don't go too far north period and it'll load up there probably when it's added

[steep tusk]

Precisely why I am sticking to the bottom half of the map at present.

[ripe bone]

have you seen that one before sev #screenshots

[steep tusk]

Yes.

[ripe bone]

yay

[vernal patrol]

I assume there's no real reason to go up north anyway.

Unless you're looking for like a specific thing in the water.

[steep tusk]

There's just land up there with nothing on it.

[ripe bone]

theres some cool ice-chunks

[vernal patrol]

Makes sense.

[steep tusk]

The devs do their best to make sense 🙂

[ripe bone]

its fun to build there

[vernal patrol]

I probably won't.

[ripe bone]

the only downside as far as i remember is that it would be annihalated, i don't think it would mess up the generation, that only happened with mistlands.

[quasi vault]

If it made sense it would be cold at both poles and the ashland would be the equator

[steep tusk]

Apparently the seed I was given has one of the tallest mountains in the game, but it's in the DN zone 😦 So I may lose it with the update.

[ripe bone]

valheim is also a disc world

[steep tusk]

I wonder if there is a solar configuration where the opposite is true 🤔

[quasi vault]

Solar configuration does not make sense with the sun being at the same positions no matter where you are and the moon always being full

[steep tusk]

Solar configuration as in "not every solar system has 1 sun."

So I wonder if there is a config where orbiting planets have a cool equator and warm poles.

[quasi vault]

Moon phases would be cool or at least having the moon's visual change on a schedule

well if a planet was to orbit on a vertical plane and always facing towards the sun it could be but it would be day 100% of the time and very warm on the part facing the sun and 100% dark and very cold on the other side with the equator being maybe livable

[vernal patrol]

Does mountain size affect starred wolf spawns?

Does it HAVE to be big or?

[lilac coyote]

No.

[compact heath]

I think I heard that starred wolves spawn in same area where fenring spawn, so if thats still true could mark these locations too

also starred wolves only spawn at night so thats another thing to keep in mind]

[glossy vector]

i cant see the No Craft Cost world modifer, anyone else?

[idle compass]

What do you mean you can't see it? Where are you looking?

[compact heath]

its been solved I helped dsb figure it out its just a command

[idle compass]

You mean like listkeys

[buoyant peak]

Literally the name...

[compact heath]

hahahahaha Its not called Deep "Middle of the map" or "Deep South" etc, but yes its in the northern quadrant of the map

[idle compass]

Hmm... is 'north' a half of the map or a quarter?

[ripe bone]

quarter i would say

[buoyant peak]

Again, literally the name

[idle compass]

Well, if it's 'deep' why is it at the top of the map

[ripe bone]

sounds cool

[idle compass]

English is so weird

[ripe bone]

i dont know if it makes sense or not i just said it sounds cool

[compact heath]

I agree, English is my second language haha

[ripe bone]

what level of fish would ya'll say is trophy worthy, 4?

[compact heath]

4 and 5 imho

[steep tusk]

Deep doesn't inherently mean "bottom" or "downward".

[ripe bone]

i think its easy enough to interpret that, a deep well.

[plush hill]

When will be available Argentina to ship items from the shop?

[polar topaz]

I just got to the Ashlands and have enough mats to build the Asksvin cloak. I'm currently using the feather cape with my eitr armor set. Should I ditch the feather cape to make the asksvin cloak?

[vernal patrol]

Nope. You shouldn't. Feather Cape is debatably the best cape in the game

[steep tusk]

Ashen ftw.

[steep tusk]

No, you should ditch it for the Ashen cape.

[vernal patrol]

Well it's between Ashen and Feather.

Both are definitely top tier.

[steep tusk]

Yup.

[vernal patrol]

Honestly if you go for anything Askvin you should just make the primary 3 ask pieces.

[polar topaz]

interesting, I thought using the asksvin cloak would help with a magic play through.

with the wind run buff.

[vernal patrol]

It's so situational it's not even worth it.

[polar topaz]

I see okay. One more question: should I bother upgrading the feather cape or is level 1 fine?

[vernal patrol]

Do what you want there. Though I will say having 4 armor instead of 1 is way better. Also higher durability is nice.

Basically if it's a cape you're gonna use a lot, may as well get it to max. 4 armor may not seem like much but it adds up with your other set pieces

And if you parry a lot every bit of armor counts toward that

[polar topaz]

ahh ok got it. thanks yall. wish me luck as I try to conquer the ashlands lol it was a rough day trying to get my FoB to the ashland shores

[vernal patrol]

Oh yeah. Ashlands is honestly one of those maps where initially it can be brutal, but once you get your foothold it's pretty easy

Basically once you get that tier of gear you're probably gonna be fine

[true steeple]

If you’re using feather cape, bring lightfoot mead for even better jumps

[vernal patrol]

Also if you want to do a magic run just get the Embla set. Embla gives you the Eitr regen. Embla with feather cape is probably gonna be your go-to. Or you can run Ashen for better parrying since you probably still need to parry on occasion

But yeah the cape is never worth it.

[true steeple]

If you want to parry with magic armor doesn’t matter, you take no damage when you have the bubble so any blockable attack may be parried

[vernal patrol]

Ah ok that's fair. So feather then. I don't mess with magic.

[ripe bone]

looks worse with embla set cuz it completely blocks your face and looks stupid that way

[vernal patrol]

Askvin is better for melee-type players who want to still use a lighter type of armor. Tho I will say if you want mobility based armor Fenris is like the best for that.

Even still

[steep tusk]

Ashen Cape is better for melee characters.

[ripe bone]

askvin cape also looks dumb.

[vernal patrol]

Yup.

[true steeple]

Feather cape works well with melee too, to dodge everything

[ripe bone]

ehhhh

slay queen

[vernal patrol]

Basically your ideal melee character is probably gonna run either Askvin armor with Feather Cape if they want mobility still or Flametal with Ashen if they wanna be a tank. Or Askvin with Ashen if they're using weapons that take a lot of stamina to use.

Or if they're using slow weapons they'll run like fenris and ashen/feather.

[steep tusk]

Asksvin with Ashen.

[vernal patrol]

I'd probably run like Fenris and Ashen/Feather since I'm using most two handed weapons. Like the crystal battle axe or the demolisher and such.

[olive summit]

do i have to use 2 identical graded fishes?

[true steeple]

Yes

[olive summit]

thats very annoying

[manic gyro]

I don't know, never tried to remove a key. Maybe simply removing the argument and restarting the server works. Or there might be a separate argument (something like -removekey), you would need to check the documentation (pdf in the same folder as the server exe)

[little trench]

best solo bow training method is just on greydwarf spawner right?

[echo sparrow]

probs

[frosty frost]

Or bonemass

[echo sparrow]

some might argue, turn on PvP/friendly fire, shoot the lox until health low, feed and repeat, but I dunno if that's actually any faster than just killin dwarves

oh yeah lol, he'd make a great arrow sponge

[little trench]

oh just sit on a high position and spam?

that sounds even better

[frosty frost]

Yep, basically, didnt do it myself but heard lot of people saying that they made a high house from where they shoot him

[little trench]

aight def gonna try that thx

[tranquil lion]

How to get odins blessing of wind 😭

everytime i leave the wind is against me. Just built the third ship excited to sail and its against me again

[frosty frost]

You go to ashlands and kill stuff to get materials for special cape 🙂

[tranquil lion]

Wait for real?

[frosty frost]

Or do you mean when going on boat?

[tranquil lion]

I mean when sailing

[little trench]

this tall enough?

[willow jungle]

A while ago I could destroy the just the bottom, that it doesn't connect with the ground anymore, and then hit it once, and the whole thing collapses and you have a lot of stone. Basicly the same thing with Silver Veins in the Mountain. Did it got patched?

[frail cave]

no, those are just still connected, even if it doesn't look like it.
they all seem to be very close to the ground

[willow jungle]

Are you sure?

[frail cave]

yepp, that's very close

[willow jungle]

I can stand below all of them

[junior ingot]

i like to dig under those, a few meters to the sides too and then start chopping at the stone

[frail cave]

mind that the boxes used to determine whether or not it's floating are cubes and don't match the size or shape of the fragments at all

the bigger the fragments, the more space you need around them to be sure it'll shatter

that's why silver is so easy, its fragments are tiny

[frosty frost]

I guess, as i said i never did it myself, but usually he cant get you even on top of the summoning skull

[zenith berry]

autopickup just stopped working any idea on how fix that

[willow jungle]

Ah, that explains it. Thanks! 😄

[willow jungle]

V *press the V-key

[zenith berry]

ty i felt it was a hotkey i pressed on accident

[steep python]

Scythe doesn't work on Jotun Puffs and Magecaps?

[stoic trench]

Correct

Sadly 🥲

[steep python]

😭

[summer sand]

how to unimplant?

im stuck and I don't think using force is a good idea to retrieve items

[echo sparrow]

if you're talking about uprooting crops once planted, you can't

you just lose the crop, and hopefully you have backups or else you have to forage for more again

[summer sand]

cries

[echo sparrow]

it's on the known issue tracker tho as a bug being worked on so I think strong implication is that it will be able to do that in the not too distant future

[summer sand]

time to ride montains for more seeds

[steep python]

Oh that's nice to know

[analog kiln]

What do you guys consider the best way to get surtling cores? Go for the spawners or just run around and farm crypts?

[true steeple]

Spawners are better, mark them on the map and run past whenever you’re going through the swamp for whatever reason. You don’t need to go out of your way to farm them.

[analog kiln]

I guess thats more my issue than anything else

is I dont typically go to the swamp, and when I do I'm the type of person who goes for their intended reason then leaves

Would rather have a slightly inefficient farm setup than spend 5 extra mins per iron run to get some extra cores

I have the same issue with stuff like thistle or mushrooms, I know I need tons of them and yet I struggle to pick them up when I'm going for something lol

[mild yew]

do you think that this is enough for bonemass? (i will make poison resistance mead later)

[frail cave]

bosses are balanced around being beatable with level 1 gear of their biome, but you're missing poison resistance meads (oops i'm blind)

[analog kiln]

I was severly overgeared for bonemass and had 2 other people but even so none of us went under 50% hp, the attacks are super easy to block/parry I think your biggest consern if you're doing solo is the ad's bonemass spawns

[mellow lodge]

looks like your over prepared for bonemass

[true steeple]

It’s much better to be overprepared for bosses so you’re ready for the new challenges ahead

[mellow lodge]

which i salute. I love to be over prepared 🙂

[analog kiln]

I had full mountain gear and was living in the plains before I fought bonemass lol

[quasi vault]

What I do when I need cores or coal is make a portal in range of at least 1 surtling spawner that's dug out so they spawn in water. I enter that portal every 5 minutes at least, then after a few time going in I go collect all the loot.

[frail cave]

and even then if you properly move away from bonemass the moment it throws them to take care of the adds before resuming the fight, they're usually no problem

[analog kiln]

Interesting I might look into doing some sort of spawner trap, I still need to make one for greydwarves

What point do you guys replace the root harnesk as your chestplate?

[quasi vault]

Before entering the ashlands for me

[analog kiln]

I feel like the pierce resist is super nice but I'm now in the plains and I'm wondering if the 10+ armor I'm losing from padded might matter more

[true steeple]

It’s very good for Fader
But I prefer ask armor

[frail cave]

never, depending on the enemy.
i think you would hypothetically need to have something around 200 defense before it becomes worth switching the root harnesk for heavy armor, but i could be wrong on that math, either way, it's incredibly useful to have 50% pierce reduction before armor is applied, worth way more than 10 defense as long as what you're fighting primarily deals pierce damage

and the fire weakness can be turned into a resistance by using fire resistance wine (or the yagluth power but i wouldn't recommend that one, it's so much less useful than bonemass)

[analog kiln]

Thats the thing I'm not fighting specific enemies, like I plan to go to mistlands for the first time today and I'm sure I'll fight more than pierce enemies

[mellow lodge]

i used root harnesk in mistlands

[analog kiln]

Or like fulings as an example only have like a 25% chance of doing pierce damaga

[frail cave]

mistlands are actually very heavy on pierce damage

[quasi vault]

You definitely want it for the mistlands

[analog kiln]

Interesting good to know, I haven't ever made it there yet so I wasnt sure

[mild yew]

will banded shield level 1 be enough to parry bonemass attacks?

[green bolt]

yea, mistlands is pierce heavy and the enemies are resistant to physical damage types

[mellow lodge]

you can't parry bosses

[analog kiln]

You can parry the damage, but not stagger

[green bolt]

you can, it just wont stagger them

[mellow lodge]

sorry, yeah

[mild yew]

i meant block* sorry

[mellow lodge]

my bad. i don't bother parrying if i can't stagger

[green bolt]

imagine being able to stagger a boss, way too op

[frail cave]

||dvergr|| rogues use exclusively ranged 100% pierce attacks unless you cuddle them
all but one ||seeker|| attack deals 100% pierce damage
and ||ticks|| are also 100% pierce.
so that only really leaves ||dvergr mages||, ||seeker soldiers|| and ||gjalls|| as being unbothered by the harnesk, two of which can be reduced by elemental resistances

[analog kiln]

Its good because I believe you do extra damage after a parry anyways

[frail cave]

you don't, the extra damage comes from stagger

[analog kiln]

Hmm it made the sound of extra damage but I might also be going crazy 🙂

Crazy I was crazy once

[true steeple]

It makes the sound of parrying but no stagger means no 2x damage

[green bolt]

well you still hear the sound if you time a block just right which makes it a parry but the boss dont care 😄

he still gonna slap you back

[true steeple]

Normal blocking, rolling and walking back are all good alternatives to parrying a boss, but normal blocking with a buckler won’t go so well

[hoary minnow]

how to aim faster with the bow ?

[frail cave]

the higher your bows level, the faster your draw time, up to 80% draw time reduction at level 100

[quasi vault]

Chop a lot of wood, shoot wood arrow at everything in sight

[frail cave]

(living things that is, inanimate objects give 0 XP when shot)

[analog kiln]

Alright surtling spawners are goated in the swamp, thanks to those who told me to do that

Is there any issue with not killing yagleth before going to mistlands?

[buoyant peak]

No

[real nebula]

I mean

[quasi vault]

It is very hard to see in there even after getting a wisplight, I would avoid that

[real nebula]

Ideally you do, Yagluth's drop is instrumental to be able to navigate the Mistlands, yeah

[analog kiln]

I see

Issue is I'm on a server with people and I kinda cant kill it atm

[real nebula]

I'd wait until you're able to, but I dunno how your server handles boss fights

Is it something everyone should log in to do together?

[analog kiln]

Ideally yes but we've only had a few people on lately lol

So I'm just doing things that I shouldnt be doing in the name of progressing without progressing

I had like 120 black iron scrap before killing bonemass

[real nebula]

Pfft, nice~

[analog kiln]

and all of the dragon eggs and nearly everything to summon yagluth

[quasi vault]

Do you have chickens? That would be one progression you can do during plains that wouldn't affect others if it's player based raids

[analog kiln]

Cant get chickens without killing yagluth afaik

[chilly shadow]

Don't compromise your enjoyment for others lack of time. You can always fight him again, if it's a matter of wanting to earn the trophy as a group you can always toss the one you get in an obliterator or use it as deco.

[quasi vault]

You can, you will find eggs at the end of the sealed towers

[frosty frost]

Sealed tower😶

[analog kiln]

yeah thats something I've thought about doing

[real nebula]

The hildir minibosses would be a decent thing to do without affecting progression much

[quasi vault]

Even without player based raids, you can dodge an attack, go get the eggs and get out without touching the minibosses

[analog kiln]

You dont spawn the raids unless you hand in the chest afaik

But also playerbased raids is on so I'm not suuuuuuper worried

[real nebula]

Normally raid keys are triggered on kill, just FYI

Worth looking at the wiki for that one tho

[analog kiln]

Yeah I did know about that one

Yeah wiki says its only on chest hand in which is why I'm so confident

[real nebula]

Ah, there ya go then

[real nebula]

-# they were bros, man
-# that kills me every time

[quasi vault]

I just learned something, time to go back for the decorative chest on a hard server where we haven't killed moder

That's a rough one, just got it on my solo world and there was a 2 star berserker along with the minibosses and a few fulings, wouldn't want to deal with that in silver armor

[analog kiln]

Yeah thats something I'm considering doing. Its funny because my friends all wanted to play so I paid for a server and now theres only like 3 people who even log on lol

they all cited saying they felt like they fell behind... We hadnt even killed bonemass

Sure I had mountain armor but I was using a iron axe to do everything, and iron is dead easy

after a week at being locked there I got the other 2 people who were semi interested in continuing and did Bonemass and Moder last night

[loud linden]

Pro tip: Ignore entirely the Smouldering Tombs, Howling Caverns, and Sealed Tower unless the hat you're wearing is more important than dying repeatedly to horrid world events that require Mistlands gear to out-scale.

[analog kiln]

You only get those world events if you hand in the chest

so just do the dungeon but dont hand in chest if you want to experience the content but not the pain

[loud linden]

And handing in the chest gets you the hat...

[frosty frost]

They want eggs...

[analog kiln]

I mean yes but also one of them gives you eggs

[frosty frost]

and you get the hat from the brass chest which is in smouldering tomb, thats the easiest raid anyway and you should have no problem with it in swamp gear or better...

[loud linden]

Way to miss the point...

[frosty frost]

So what was it?

[loud linden]

All of the Hildir stuff is cosmetic, or luxury. There's no need to engage with it at all.

[analog kiln]

Except for the eggs

[real nebula]

I'd argue now that the brass chest for harvest gear is pretty valuable for any farmers

[frosty frost]

NOBODY WAS GOING TO GIVE ANYTHING TO HILDIR! Thats the damn point.

[loud linden]

Buy the eggs. If you don't have 1,500 gold after killing Moder, I don't know what to advise you..

[analog kiln]

have to beat yagluth to buy eggs

can get free eggs for no downside if you do the dungeon

[sleek herald]

And builders (or so I hear, I build big box [yes I'm going to keep on repeating it])

[frosty frost]

I really dont get why people just decide to join convo without reading it first...

[real nebula]

Which I find useful as well, yes~

Granted that I think you get some base item stamina reduction on the clothes that hildir sells you without any chests, but just the brass chest gives you more options

-# And honestly, what's the point of surviving if you can't look good doing it

[loud linden]

I don't need to read it to know that killing Moder and buying eggs is a good choice. Having the Drake event is a pain in the arse.

[real nebula]

You need to kill Yag for eggs

[sleek herald]

🤦‍♂️

'cept you don't

[loud linden]

Ok, I stand corrected, but disabling the Fuling raid is also worth it.

[true steeple]

You need to kill yagluth to buy eggs

[real nebula]

The point of the convo was that Psy here doesn't want to beat Yagluth yet

[loud linden]

That doesn't change the objectively advantageous situation.

[frosty frost]

🤦‍♂️

[loud linden]

Don't kill whomever you want. Then live with the consequences.

[real nebula]

To be fair it seemed like they've not beaten bonemass yet either, so

[analog kiln]

Did manage to get some people on and kill bonemass and moder last night

[real nebula]

Ooh, nice

[loud linden]

As absurd as it may seem, some of us don't spend 18 of 24 hrs on the Valheim Discord.

[lilac coyote]

I don't think that disproves his point.

[loud linden]

Let's go!

[frosty frost]

2-5 minutes of reading the stuff you are replying to would be absolutely enough...

[loud linden]

No, that's not true. Most people here don't use the reply function, or even tag the people they're replying to. Catching up is a massive chore.

[real nebula]

Easy now

[stoic trench]

In case anyone doesn’t know, you gotta kill Yag to buy eggs ||had to say it lol||

[analog kiln]

I think moose was just very passionate about something they were struggling with and sorta just missed it is all no harm done 🙂

[loud linden]

Yep, I conceded my error there.

[frosty frost]

I just cant...

[loud linden]

Good.

[stoic trench]

Sorry, I’m just being a goober, don’t mind me 😅

[frosty frost]

For you 🙂

[analog kiln]

So ik we determined that the root harnesk is the best untill muuuch later but do you guys swap out your pants to padded or not really? Currently have Fenris lv 4

I like the offsetting my ms penalty from the harnesk but I am a bit light on armor with it

[buoyant peak]

Only a problem against non-pierce dmg if you wear harnesk

[mellow lodge]

i paired root harnesk with heavy pants and helmet

[reef pine]

im on valheimian website and i dont see a downlod option for a build

[frosty frost]

What webside?

[reef pine]

the valheimian website i just said ... its to get already made buildings

[frosty frost]

Sorry never heard of it, and it is almost certainly not an official valheim webside i believe, so not sure how much help you can get here 😅

[little trench]

its been like 5 ingame days and nothing still.. is it supposed to be this mega slow?

[echo sparrow]

yeah it's not that great--to get a consistent enough flow I found it was necessary to cover large vertical surfaces

[lilac coyote]

The what?

[echo sparrow]

like this (in the background--you can see i did a similar setup as you have in the foreground, found it not as efficient, or not producing enough volume that way at least)

[little trench]

ya that setup i have to the right is copied from ur

[reef pine]

how about instead of saying something just to trol you look it up

[echo sparrow]

I think if you covered a big enough field it would work, but at that point I just found it more convenient to use the inner side of my earthen wall surrounding main into trellises for the vines

[little trench]

he doesnt understand what you mean by "the valheimian website". i dont understand either

[little trench]

oh the vines climb on raised ground?

[echo sparrow]

yeah a good bit up if there are connections, not sure the exact limit

[little trench]

what u mean by connections?

[echo sparrow]

like connected pieces

so if you got say side of a building without overhang, you can plant just a few space out starter vines, and it'll pretty efficiently grow vines to cover the whole side of the building

you def don't need plants like every single meter for instance

you can kind of see in the screenshot where the vines (all planted just at the base of the wall) climbed ALL the way up to the top roof of the construction on top of the wall

[little trench]

aah

[tranquil lion]

When/if is it good to make metal armor? Having a 20% reduction on movement seems like... alot (i guess higher with a weapon +shield probably 30%)

[echo sparrow]

it's mostly a preference thing (between blocking vs dodging as the primary damage avoidance strategy)

[frosty frost]

If you really dont want to you basically never have to make it, but from iron onwards i would say 🙂 (depends if you actually want to depending on your playstyle 😄 )

[tranquil lion]

Makes sense. I could run around buck naked too i suppose 😆

Maybe ill make the troll set but idk if its actually better than leather at max upgrades

[echo sparrow]

light armor seems like it gives you enough to survive more than one hit from most things in most situations (at equal or lower "tier" level), so that's good enough for MOST purposes

[frosty frost]

Oh go for it 100% 🙂

[echo sparrow]

in the situations not--like a 2 star heavy hitter rolling up--you PROBS wouldn't be that much better off trying to block/parry heavy, than dodging anyway

light is honestly meta-wise overall, usually, better but again, mostly playstyle--you certainly can make heavy work, and I've tended to favor it

[tranquil lion]

I think i have a bronze helmet right now since that doesnt give movement reduction and troll vs leather the cape is the same but i would get 8 more armor from pants+shirt so ill do that ig

[true steeple]

It's -10%, not 20

[ripe bone]

guys what're we arguing about so i know who to disagree with 😃

[echo sparrow]

despite what i just said lol (unless you count going mage as "light")

@ripe bone the relative value of heavy armor

[ripe bone]

heavy armour looks the coolest.

[true steeple]

Heavy armor or good armor?
||I use heavy armor sometimes so this is a bit of a joke but I generally prefer light armor||

[ripe bone]

and in the ashlands when you get heavy armour and the best health foods, ashen cape and bonemass etc being a tank is very viable.

[tranquil lion]

yeah 20 with a shield and sword i guess if those count. I forgot cape and helm dont have reduction

[ripe bone]

it is pretty much the moment you get bonemass

[echo sparrow]

a lot of people mix and match for that reason--heavy helmet because no reduction, chest root harknesk because so good with the pierce resist, fenris (light) leggings for fast & elemental resist (IIRC), etc.

[ripe bone]

I only use light armour when i am exploring or experimenting with builds

[true steeple]

I use light armor for all biomes except mountains, plains and mistlands because fenris armor needs too much luck for me

[ripe bone]

luck?

[true steeple]

I don't find anywhere near as much fenris hair as most people here seem to

[ripe bone]

it took me 3 mountains to get a set fully upgraded

not recently because i turned resource rate to 1.5x

[true steeple]

I can get a full set of silver armor while barely exploring one mountain, it's just so much easier

[ripe bone]

yeah but do you want to not have fenris armor for exploration later on, or for armor stands

What i don't get is that it seems that people are just not taking their time with the game or something?....like everyones trying to speedrun, skipping bronze equipment, skipping fenris...just chill and take the time to get stuff.

[mellow lodge]

if it was easier to swap armor sets off an armor stand, i'd probably switch my armor more often.

[echo sparrow]

after the 1st run, once you know what awaits you and how and when you get it, and some sense of the danger enemies present and how to manage, i totally get trying to speedrun bronze since there's much more exciting options later to get to and which relatively quickly will obsolete it (like the difference between it and the protection of troll + shield until you can get to iron don't seem to justify it to me)

[mellow lodge]

too much clicking as it stands right now

[echo sparrow]

but fenris, yeah, I dont get--too good, and the caves, fun in and of themselves

[ripe bone]

i am a completionist, every time 🥴

and yes frost caves are very fun

[echo sparrow]

i mean EVENTUALLY--like one of the "i'll get to this at some point" projects on my list is build one of literally every armor set to display in a hall

[ripe bone]

I legit think between burial chambers, troll caves, crypts, fuling villages, infested mines, charred fortresses, frost caves are fucking PEAK above all else.

[echo sparrow]

but like, that's not a priority lol--and gonna do it way after most of those armors have much meaningful use case

the dungeons generally are well done I agree, frost caves & infested mines particularly shine

and the forts, it's a shame they didn't get an entrance to a more elaborate procedural generated dungeon inside the main central tower tho

like i get it tho--only so much finite dev resources

[ripe bone]

i thought i was given the impression they were going to

and i was thinking of like lava filled dungeons

[echo sparrow]

hell they still could in a 'circle back' much like they've done in a number of different instances (frost caves, themselves, a prime example if memory serves) but definitely at this point we clearly far enough past Ashlands original release to be sure if it comes, it'll be some future update that adds that as part of a 'facelift' to older previous content

it'd be cool to have to use the basalt bombs in the dungeons to navigate lava

[mellow lodge]

bleh. i hate the insta kill nature of lava

[echo sparrow]

and/or the classic "jumping" puzzle

[mellow lodge]

i'm not a fan of the game mechanic

not in a game with pretty harsh death penalities

[ripe bone]

oh yeah lava is ridiculous and i'm tired of pretending its not, idk what the fuck everyone is talking about, i have never seen lava in any game or real life that just makes you instantly explode, the fuck is this super mario or something??

[echo sparrow]

it could be less all or nothing, but the anxiety of the threat and navigating it is an interesting gameplay element that makes ashlands speical

[mellow lodge]

right. but that's why i don't want to see use of lava expanded

[ripe bone]

why not at that rate make it so that one hit from an enemy destroys your armor and the other hit insta-kills you no matter what, just to make it a closer reference 🍄

[mellow lodge]

as it stands now, meh, ok fine. just lets not go all in on using it more

[true steeple]

It's better than it used to be, at least

[mellow lodge]

in what way?

[ripe bone]

by how much, i would never have known without someone saying it outright 🤣

[true steeple]

I swear it was nerfed at some point...

[ripe bone]

not enough, and the flametal armor bonus should be buffed too.

[mellow lodge]

i don't remember seeing it in the patch notes in recent history. And when i fell off while mining flametal and ended up in the lava, death seemed instantaneous

[true steeple]

Now it deals less damage around the edges, you need to be deeper in to take full damage.

[frosty frost]

this?

[true steeple]

That and the line above, yes

[ripe bone]

'slightly' 😒

[mellow lodge]

hmmm.

[frosty frost]

How did i miss that... xD

[mellow lodge]

maybe i fell in before that patch note

[echo sparrow]

last i fucked around and found it, it certainly FELT pretty close to instanteous

[ripe bone]

yeahhh

[echo sparrow]

granted, i don't think i was in flametal armor at the time and dunno how much dif that'd have made

[mellow lodge]

i don't really want to test in my flametal armor to see the difference 🙂

[true steeple]

It would still be just as fast after the damage starts, flametal armor only changes the delay

[mellow lodge]

the delay would still be fine, if it's from falling in near an edge.

i only mine the flametal right near normal land. so in theory if i fell in, it should just be one jump to get out

[frosty frost]

Oh it make quite a bit of difference 🙂 i died to lava before the nerf without it in like a second (i tried to jump in, jump out and i was dead) with flametal armor i could jump like 2-3 times and still have half hp left 😄 (still before the nerf, during ptb)

[mellow lodge]

you could stay in lava, jumping 23 times up and down before you finally died?

oh, two to three lol

[frosty frost]

mistake, not twenty three times XD 2 to 3 times XD

[mellow lodge]

hahah ok that makes more sense

okay. maybe i'll put my big boy pants on and mine some more flametal in my armor

[snow vault]

valheim more fun solo or with poeple ?

[frosty frost]

Different prson to person, some enjoy solo some co-op 😄

[echo sparrow]

i'd argue with more people, but it's a very close and still worth it solo

[frosty frost]

try both and you will see

[snow vault]

alr thks

[echo sparrow]

plus solo has some advantages--namely getting to set your own pace

[ripe bone]

uhhh i mean if its first time playthrough i highly recommend the solo experience that is intended

[echo sparrow]

you're certainly forced more to learn and improve without potential crutch of another person bailing you out in solo

[prime quest]

Do all your tamed animals share the max number of population if i put em all into the same enclosure?

[frosty frost]

They shouldnt afaik

[prime quest]

So i can just put em all togather for the same amount of every animal instead of seperated enclosures?

[frosty frost]

You can, but i like to have each animal in its own enclosure if i am taming multiple types, makes farming each different ingredient easier

will check the wiki if it actually works that way, not 100% sure

[echo sparrow]

the limit for breeding purposes is different per type of time

[prime quest]

I was thinking about to keep chicken seperated, but my boars getting killed by ghosts sometimes. 2* wolves would fix it.

[echo sparrow]

i.e. how many lox you have in an area only effects the check for lox, not wolves or anything else, and same for the rest--I'm also pretty sure each type has its own # limit, so some can "fit" more in a given space

[vapid warren]

the animals only are limited by their own type

you can breed chickens, wolves, boars, asksvin and lox all to their individual limits in the same pens

the limits are different for each animal anyway, so it'd be different

[echo sparrow]

i always keep at least a breeding pair inside at least one airtight layer to mitigate the risk of being killed, then I tend to let the rest free roam

[vapid warren]

though eggs count for the limit for chickens and asksvins

[echo sparrow]

although NOT the lox in the main base area where all the delicately setup buildngs and crops and stuff are...for reasons that I'm sure are obvious to anyone who has ever tamed a lox

[prime quest]

tyvm for the info guys

[vapid warren]

specific info can be found here https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Taming

[compact heath]

Do things spawn in lava or just outside and then walk in, does anyone know this answer reliably?

[echo sparrow]

i don't have confirmation but STRONGLY suspect that they do spawn on lava given how damn far out in the middle of it I see many mobs often

like, it'd be weird if they wandered alllllll that way out from a "shore" spawn IMO

[thorn spire]

Does anyone know if the attack stamina reduction from ashen cape applies to reloading(crossbow or dundr)?

[wheat sedge]

why cant i craft any mead?

[steep tusk]

Because you're at the Cauldron and didn't read the Bog Witch patchnotes.

[compact heath]

Meads are not made in the cauldron, use the mead ketill.

[mystic sedge]

can you get invaded while you're not at base

[silk quartz]

so ive been using the valheim world generation map resource, and venturing to different bog witch locations to try and get to her to spawn, ive been to three, and still havent gotten her to spawn in my world, am i cooked? will i have to restart a new world?

[true steeple]

Only by the wolf raid in plains or mountains

[mystic sedge]

ok i need to elaborate, draugr showed up to my meadows base thats miles away from a swamp and it had the invasion circle thing, but nobody was near the meadows base, but the enemies only appeared when i got close to the base, is this normal or what

[steep tusk]

They really should add the bat and drake raids to that list...

[tepid ember]

did you upload the world after update or just generate with new version

[true steeple]

Not sure about drakes. Watching bats interact with the other enemies would be fun though.

[silk quartz]

no i didnt upload it to the site, i just searched my seed, which has worked in the past to find the queen when she was added

[tepid ember]

click the blue button next to the seed and it will tell you what to do i had the same problem it just apparently wont spawn in the locations you have been to already

to get the new locations you need to upload your world data

[silk quartz]

ty

ill give it a shot!

[silk quartz]

okay, so i uploaded my world data and ran the search, and came up empty

im cooked huh...

[tepid ember]

did the locations change

[silk quartz]

wym?

[tepid ember]

are the bog witch places different from the ones before

[silk quartz]

there are no bog witch locations now

[weary dagger]

Anyone know if you can feed animals in stacks of food now? rather than dropping them one at a time

[rain light]

Is there an command so spawn the black forest merchant camp?

[steep tusk]

Yes.

[compact heath]

Yes always been the case

[tepid ember]

you need to change the map version after uploading and it will regenerate it and give new bog witch locations

[weary dagger]

Thank you! swear it wasn't at one stage tho. ah well

[compact heath]

Thats how I fed my boars in February 2021 🙂

[hybrid iris]

I brought in a storm fang and mistwalker from my friends server to own but cant repair them?
My forge level is 6

[silk quartz]

ive alweays just dropped a stack and they eat it as needed

[weary dagger]

was farming available in 2021? i thought it was 2022... damn missed a trick i did

[compact heath]

They are not repaired at the normal forge, but a different kind of forge

[hybrid iris]

Oh i see, what forge is it and when can i build it?

[compact heath]

Mistlands for the Mistwalker and for Storm Fang you might need the ashlands upgrades for it, these items are far ahead of your progression

[hybrid iris]

Thanks for the help

[compact heath]

Black Forge its called

[compact heath]

so without bringing the materials to make it and upgrade if sufficiently you will not be able to repair it, don't know if you're geared and progressed enough to get them yourself I assume not 🙂

[hybrid iris]

Just about to beat yagluth and enter mistlands

[silk quartz]

yea, still not having any luck, i dont think shes gonna spawn in my current worl

[tepid ember]

you changed the version to the newest it regenerated the world right?

[compact heath]

Have you not got any unexplored swamps?

[silk quartz]

yep

i have plenty unexplored

[tepid ember]

so you still don have any bog witches in the seed generator

[silk quartz]

nope, notta 1

[tepid ember]

thats really weird maybe try to upload the world again and redo the generation

[tepid ember]

can you give your seed so i can try it?

[silk quartz]

its telling me i dont have any ashlands generation, even though ive played and saved several times since that update

ux7333cRvR

[tepid ember]

wait how old is this world of yours

[silk quartz]

at least a year or more

idk how to tell exact age

[tepid ember]

atleast my generator gave you ashlands and bog witches

[silk quartz]

yea when i just searched the seed, it popped up, i went to several locations, all empty, uploaded my world data, and got nothing

[tepid ember]

can you send the link of your lobby in the generator

[silk quartz]

https://valheim-map.world/?seed=ux7333cRvR&ver=0.219.13&lob=S8i5Hg&x

[real nebula]

Have you tried pinging her location ingame via devcommands?

[tepid ember]

this video shows how you can force spawn it without modshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRRwsYU7OEY

[silk quartz]

yea i tried that last night but couldnt get my command prompt to popup when i hit f5

[real nebula]

Hmm, weird

[frail cave]

you do have "-console" in the launch options on valheim right?

[real nebula]

And what version number is you game again? Should say in the main menu

[silk quartz]

0.219.16

[silk quartz]

sure didnt, lemme run that rq

using dev commands, do they camps show up as houses w/ a X through them on the map?

[real nebula]

Correct~

[frail cave]

usually grey dots with a cross but i have seen houses too, honestly not sure what the difference is

[silk quartz]

alight, i got a few to pop up, lemme run by one to see if its real!

[real nebula]

Iirc, doing the same thing with hildr (as in hildr instead of hildr_camp) will give you her camp as houses and dungeons as dots

...or the other way around

[frail cave]

that's...interesting, since both are the same type of thing (poi)

[frail cave]

oh, i see what it is, houses may be a new addition to that, they mark pois while dots mark objects.
so in that case, as long as you're within render distance of either hildir or her dungeons, hildir herself or one of the dungeon boss spawners could be marked as an object since they contain "hildir"

(find can locate pois across the entire map but objects only within render distance)

[edgy spade]

Ive added myself using my dedicated server as an admin using steam64 but it says dev commands are true but i still cant use the commands
it keeps saying they are out of context does anyone know why

[frail cave]

only the host of a server can use devcommands, and for a dedicated server, the server itself is the host.

admin perms are only for admin commands (kick, ban, recall, something else i forgot)

[edgy spade]

alr thanks, thats unfortunate

[compact heath]

#dedicated-server but yeah what Winter said, kick ban and setkey commands are some that work

[silk quartz]

Mission Success! thanks every1

[tepid ember]

can you do anything to reduce lag on ashlands when playing with others i have played with one friend and we were fine with every other biome but ashlands is almost unplayble

[silk quartz]

dev commands -console was clutch

[compact heath]

it helps if they all are physically playing from close locations like the closer to physical server location the better

[tepid ember]

im just hosting from my computer and hes like 5km away from me

[compact heath]

ideally both on Ethernet not Wifi? that helps too

[tepid ember]

i have ethernet he doesn't but its just really weird we are fine anywhere else except ashlands

[compact heath]

ashlands has a bit more going on

[tepid ember]

yea but why am i lagging more since my computer is beefy and so is my internet if i play alone im also fine in ashlands he joins i start lagging aswell

[compact heath]

his PC slow? dunno what else to suggest

[tepid ember]

how can his pc affect my performance we dowloaded betternetworking mod it seems to work like half of the time but sometimes its just horrible

[prime quest]

Anyone got a nice fishing guide for me?

[minor condor]

OK SO. i have been looking for haldor for such a long time, ive tried using the seedchecker thing online and it didnt work since i use mods, is there any way i can just find him with console commands?

[sleek herald]

You sure the mods didn't lose him entirely?

[minor condor]

that could be a possibility

[lilac coyote]

I don't see why the seed viewer would be affected by mods.

[sleek herald]

If the mod affected traders and broke with bog witch

[minor condor]

i can check again let me get to my files

[lilac coyote]

Oh, if the mod is broken in general then yeah, just ditch it and they should be fine.

But they've not travelled very far and it's possible they just haven't found him yet.

[minor condor]

i have like 7 mods, so ill check the seed thing again

[sleek herald]

No hildir or BW in all that either though

you'd figure at least one would show

[lilac coyote]

That's still only about 5 islands, most of which are too close for spawns to occur anyway.

[frail cave]

was that world created before the bog witch update? because in that case the locations would be a bit different than shown online because worldgen adapts to how much terrain is already generated, usually cascading into the entire unexplored part of the map's points of interests being shuffled.
if that's the case, uploading the world files to the site directly instead of just typing in the seed should give more accurate locations

[minor condor]

"freshly" made, i made it 4 days ago unless a patch came out in that time :p, im working on getting the file to drop it in!

[frail cave]

huh, then there might be a mod issue 😅

[minor condor]

might be

[lilac coyote]

There WAS a patch 3 days ago, but it probably wouldn't have affected POI spawns like the big one did.

[minor condor]

is there way to get a text version of the seed other than dropping it into the checker? sorry for all the questions

[real nebula]

Finding the merchant via devcommands ingame should be a possibility though

don't believe mods would mess with that

[minor condor]

its just /devcommands right?

[frail cave]

find vendor_BlackForest 10 (haldor)
find Hildir_camp 10
find BogWitch_camp 10
/ isn't needed if you do it in the console, actual devcommands need to be done in the console anyway

[idle compass]

That's only true for a 'vanilla' dedicated server. You can easily add a mod to the server that gives you devcommand access there.

[real nebula]

make sure that your steam settings look like this if you want to use devcommands @minor condor

[frail cave]

yes but we're not gonna recommend mods

[minor condor]

even if i launch it through thunderstore? ill set it up right quick

[real nebula]

that might be #mods-issues territory but if memory serves even thunderstore should respect those settings?

[minor condor]

ill give it a whirl!! tysm for all the help <3 i might be back if it doesnt work lol

[idle compass]

That's fine but you're not helping anyone by giving out wrong information.

[frail cave]

it's correct for the game itself

[real nebula]

She's given accurate information for the vanilla game. We do not support modded games.

[idle compass]

Then, say your talking about the vanilla game. A huge portion of the Valheim player base uses mods. Get used to it.

[real nebula]

Read the channel description

[lilac coyote]

We're in #valheim-help vanilla is implied. 😕

[frail cave]

then they can go to #mods-issues

[minor condor]

hey, im getting help here, im happy with all the help

ik with mods itll be a little wonky, and ill go to mod support if its obvious its a mod issue lol

im just a little dumb

[ripe bone]

aren't we all

[real nebula]

Aye, for something like that it shouldn't be affected by mods

[minor condor]

hey at least console works! so PROGRESS!

[frail cave]

some mods could probably affect it but none i can tell from that screenshot

[minor condor]

chat does this look right? i feel like it is, just double checking

[real nebula]

that's perfect~

[minor condor]

HOORAY!

[real nebula]

any of those locations should be a valid haldor spawn

choose wisely, it'll be permanent once you find him~

ill scope out to see if its not immediately not next to a plains or something terrifying

[real nebula]

ooh be careful, the radius that he will spawn from is deceptively large

i heard its 100-300 meters so, ill use my very discerning eye

[real nebula]

good luck~

[lilac coyote]

It's 2am, not at lot else is happening, it's all good.

#valheim-chat has been reminiscing about old video games for half an hour and no-one is fussed.

[real nebula]

-# y'all are lucky I'm too much of a softie to ask y'all to move to general

[lilac coyote]

Heh, we're playing nicely for once,.

[tranquil lion]

What is the block armor value in parentheses? Like on the iron buckler it shows "Block armor: 28 (30)"

[real nebula]

left is base block armor, right is your true block armor with the skills that you have

[tranquil lion]

Ahhh right on thank you. So Parry bonus would multiply the latter then yea?

[real nebula]

correct~

[tranquil lion]

Thank you 🙂

[frail cave]

-# softies together~

[ripe bone]

i'm more like a feathery texture

[noble vault]

My friend and I noticed today that when we were catapulted, his heavy armour appeared to cause a much shorter fly distance. So do we have a good idea of how flying speed/drop is quantified?

Otherwise, I'm going to have to play around with things like fenris, ratatosk and moder power, as my guess is it relates entirely to the characters 'movement speed'

[serene cove]

any reason I can't make bread dough? My cauldron is at lvl 4, got the barley, got the oven... but don't have the option in the cauldron

perhaps I'm missing something

[compact heath]

no longer made in the cauldron, try food preparation table

[serene cove]

ohh 😛

[serene cove]

yes, thanks!! Wasn't aware!

[compact heath]

all good some people don't religiously read patch notes, if you want to make meads try the mead ketill 😺

[edgy meteor]

Stuck in plains rn, not really sure where to look for yagluth location stones. I’ve searched villages+a couple of those Stonehenge things and got no locator stones

[steep tusk]

Most everyone finds Yagluth before finding his location stone 😄

[compact heath]

usually only takes about 96 or so hours to find him, sometimes longer, not too bad 🤣 You can look up what his altar looks like and the places where the vegvisir spawns, but seriously he is one of the hardest things to find

[crimson lotus]

is there any way to solve this, the line that wood wall 26 give are giving my roof an ugly touch

[mystic sedge]

do frost caves spawn up high or a bit lower down a mountain

[last osprey]

if there's obsidian and drakes around you're high enough for frost caves

[mystic sedge]

does fenris hair respawn in caves

[ripe bone]

no

[empty heart]

You guys know if there's any way to put a server sided mod in order to check if the items are duped or make characters server only without needing a mod ?

Like without needing to use thunderstore

[frosty frost]

Try #mods-discussion someone there might know 🤔

[snow vault]

what does the elder power do ?

[true steeple]

Increases chop damage on axes (the hidden damage type used to damage trees)

[snow vault]

kinda mid tho right ?

[true steeple]

It’s not great, but if you have a portal to spawn it’s worth using if you need a lot of wood

[snow vault]

and the third boss ability ?

[frosty frost]

Dmg reduction for physical dmg types

[snow vault]

ty

[mystic sedge]

can we dig too deep (how far can we dig down)

[willow raft]

A height map can only be changed to a certain degree, so you can't dig a hole in a mountain and keep on going down.
I believe it is 8 meters or 16 pickaxe hits.
Same with building earthen walls with the hoe, max height of a wall is 8 meters.

[mystic sedge]

are there mining explosives in the game

[frosty frost]

Well... There Is something that explodes and breaks terrain...

[mystic sedge]

what is it

[frosty frost]

Enemy in ashlands

[true steeple]

In ashlands you can get ||trollstav and explosive payloads|| which are very effective at mining ores

[frosty frost]

But if you want something to mine stuff like copper early game then go get some trolls 😄

[willow raft]

Or dig all around the copper and make sure there is a 2 meter gap on all sides and under it, then jump up onto the copper and break a piece and make the copper explode.

[zinc mirage]

Any tips on beating ||the queen||? My group of 4 keeps getting slaughtered- the ADs are fucking crazy with a group

[willow raft]

Do you have a mage? If so make that one add clean up and buff up
Staff of embers, staff of protection and dead raiser, with ees food (or feasts if you use that) make sure to have some eitr, health and stamina meads with you.
Preferable with eitr weave and feather fall cape.
Use dead raiser if there is a break in the fighting to summon some skeletons to act as cannon fodder.
Staff of protection at the start of battle and anytime there is moment to cast it on someone, keeps the mage alive and helps party members.
staff of embers melts the adds.

The rest plays what they want and eats their best foods and have meads they need with them.

[zinc mirage]

We have three melee, one mage in full weave. We only have the ember staff though. Also, we thought you could only benefit from one mead at a time and have only been using poison resistance. Another question though, does the staff of protection’s bubble end after taking 200 damage or does it protect from 200 damage every hit for its duration?

[true steeple]

Don’t forget lightfoot mead to dodge things. Tonic of ratatosk will help too if you have found the bog witch.

[willow raft]

You can benefit from one mead per thing, so one stamina mead can be drunk but you either choose between lingering or the other, not both.
But you can drink a health potion after that as well and so on, no need to wait for the timer of the stamina to be done, only care about the timer for that specific potion and its group.
The bubble has 200 life at lvl 0 and it will block everything, till that life is gone.
If the bubble has 1 life and 1000 damage comes in the 1000 will be nullified and the bubble breaks.
So you are safe for 200 damage or till the timer has expired.
Also while in the bubble every parry staggers (except against bosses).

[zinc mirage]

Ah so one potion per stat. So I can drink a Stam, a health, and an eithr potion and benefit from them all?
