[noble vault]

Either way - barley's so surplus, if I want bread, I can have bread too lol

[static steppe]

Good point 😆

[noble vault]

The only other strategy I can think of for 'power levelling' would be meats since they're 1->1

Oh. I think bread's it. You also get double xp because of the cooking station. and the extra yield double chance.

[static steppe]

You could always set up a load of cooking stations and burn the boar and deer meat you've accumulated

[noble vault]

yup, feels like it's not a case of 'I will only do x thing' but just using any stuff that's surplus

[static steppe]

Yeah

[sinful pine]

Where do I find someone to play with which thingy

[chilly shadow]

I can't imagine turning my flour into coal, I use to much making pies and bread. 😂

[noble vault]

I use a lot of it, too! But my farm puts out like 800 a go

[chilly shadow]

Maybe I just don't run enough mills. I always have way more barley than flour

[chilly shadow]

Also, feel like that's a humongous farm

[normal anvil]

What’s the earliest you can get a battle axe?

[frosty frost]

Swamp

[little trench]

can you do anything with kvastur?

[frosty frost]

You can hit him 🙂 (but no, other than trophy he has no purpose for player)

[stoic trench]

Tame them with dust ||kidding||

[unkempt lichen]

hello, how is it possible to kill the bonemass? we already tried everything + we have max gear and we get 2shotted

[little trench]

poison resist pot + dodge his swings + healing pot

u trying to tank his swings?

[unkempt lichen]

no but we didnt think about poison resist

[little trench]

aight

[wet river]

Poison resist pots is prob the most efficient way like the other guy said, but if you want to "cheese" bonemass u can build a tree house and shoot him from it. Unfortunately he have natural resistance to arrows so u will break a few bows before killing him.

[mellow lodge]

easier ways to cheese bonemass. just stand on the nose of the skull with staghammer and poison resist and whack away. he can't hit you and your staghammer will keep smacking him

i've also seen a guy who likes to build a little platform off the skull. at the right height you just whack him with a club, and same thing, bonemass can't hit you. but that one takes some construction

[mellow lodge]

are you playing on hard or very hard? 2 shotted doesn't sound right at all for max iron gear.

[unkempt lichen]

no, on normal

and yes maxed out iron gear

and max mace

and from 120health he hits me once and i go to like 25health

[mellow lodge]

Poison resist and dodge roll. You should’ve able to beat him easily with maxed iron mace and armor and poison mead.

[last osprey]

you need to block

a level 3 banded shield blocks his attacks easily on normal (with swamp food of course) and they all have long and obvious telegraphs. Block the melee hit, run out of the vomit (yes, even with poison resist, he will follow you) and hit back in between attacks. Also make sure someone deals with the adds so they don't accumulate too much.

[static steppe]

Back off to recover. Use Eikthyr's power too, to reduce stamina use. Take it in turns to trigger it (if one person triggers it, you'll all get the effect provided you're close together)

Get into the habit of using the forsaken powers. They help

[unkempt lichen]

guys we got the wish bone and we went to the mountains and its not beeping, could this specific mountain not contain any silver? or we doing something wrong?

[true steeple]

If the mountain isn't tall enough, silver can't spawn

[static steppe]

Did you equip the wishbone?

[unkempt lichen]

yes

[static steppe]

Silver spawns at high altitudes, so don't look down low.

You'll probably find silver when running away from an enemy 🤣 That's when I typically find it. Racing along trying to get away, when 'bling, bling, bling'....

[chilly shadow]

Once you start seeing obsidian you're in a decent range for silver

[steep tusk]

Why do people keep advising others to waste stamina blocking bosses? 🤦‍♂️

[cedar jungle]

Hello, my boys and I, as well as a gur from work have been playing on a dedicated server I am renting from BiSect. It has worked with no isses for 2 months. Im on PC via Steam and they are all on Xboxs. In the last few days they keep getting disconnected and the game crashes to the xbox home screen. 2 of these xboxs are on my same internet connection. The other one is not. Nothing seems to trigger it, it just happens. I have had 0 issues on PC. When they log back in they are usually logging in to an empty inventory, and they have no graves. It has been very frustrating. Any ideas? Bisesct could not see anything on their end.

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server

[ripe bone]

because its the way of men

[last osprey]

because a lot of new players are more comfortable blocking instead of dodging and the timing is more forgiving, even if dodging is the better option.

and there are very few enemies you can't block on normal (and for those there's Bonemass power).

[wanton tartan]

I recently got Valheim and been loving it, I was able to get some of my friends to also get it and they feel the same about the game as me. However there is one big issue, when I am not hosting our server no one else can play, so there are many instances when my friends want to play and progress in the game, but I just cannot get on. And I don't want to leave my PC on all the time, so I am wondering if there is any way to make my server open to my friends all the time, regardless of if I am hosting it or not?

[steep tusk]

Normal enemies -> block.
Bosses -> dodge.

[steep tusk]

Pay for a hosting service.

[true steeple]

Blocking costs less stamina and has a shorter recovery than rolling

[noble vault]

When they've grown up a wall, do vineberry ashvines still require cultivated soil to produce fruit?

[fast sluice]

I need Help, im in the End Game ashland and if im traveling with portal im stuck in the loading screen
i had never that problem now im stuck i have a big house and big items maybe they are the problems?

[terse tiger]

My game bugged out, a troll spawned while I was in esc pause and destroyed my entire house

Is there a way to go back before that?

[true steeple]

You can use the manage saves button on world or character select to load automatic backups.

[terse tiger]

What happens to my character tho since Im naked

I think my grave is there with my items, ty for the help

[chilly shadow]

Your character also has separate save files, you should be able to back it up as well.

[snow vault]

how long does flax and barley take to grow ?

[chilly shadow]

Not terribly long, and it will grow while you're away doing other things.

[true steeple]

You can sleep at noon to skip maximum time to grow it faster

[snow vault]

alright

do wolfs eat lox meat ?

[plush plover]

'Looking for some clarification on flesh-rippers: Is it just a matter of getting behind the enemy then hitting the button for the primary attack? I see videos where they seem to be jumping or launching themselves as part of the attack. Also, would it be even more effective to use their secondary attack of kicking (thus staggering) them and THEN using the primary attack? Thanks in advance for your help.

[turbid maple]

i think but it's a waste

[chilly shadow]

Their secondary attack is the lunge iirc, haven't used them in a long while as they're the only fist weapon and aren't viable long term

[wanton tartan]

If I setup a dedicated server using the free Valheim Dedicated Server, will my server be up all the time, regardless of whether my computer is on or not?

[lilac coyote]

Depends on what device you set up the server on.

Also, THREE different channels but not #dedicated-server ?

[wanton tartan]

oh mb bro i didn't see it

[vale ether]

Hello! 👋

Valheim is unplayable for me because for some reason when I go back to base it kills my frames but when I go through a portal it doesn't

I'm getting 10 frames for teleporting back to my home

[subtle parrot]

If your base is big or you have a lot of instances it will be slow there

[prisma current]

Does anyone have a map of like ... all global keys' default values? Trying to build a custom world here and that would help alot.

[lilac coyote]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Global_Keys https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/World_Modifiers

[prisma current]

Doesn't have everything unfortunately. That's kinda why I asked.

[lilac coyote]

What do you think it's missing?

[prisma current]

No idea what Count does.

WorldLevelLockedTools is also a weird one.

[supple relic]

So im at the black forest and i can make a cultiuvator, shoulkd i farm before i go any further or go straight to abomination?

Granted i still get oneshottedf by trolls and cower at one of them

for reference im wearing troll armour and jsut entering bronze age

[lost swift]

The cultivator is necessary for all the better food that I believe GREATLY increases your chances of survival in the swamps

I think I could actually play through large swaths of the game naked as long as I had the right food

[supple relic]

so should i farm berries, actually more important how do i incorporate boars?

[lost swift]

You can't grow berries - they re-spawn after a few in-game days. But there are seeds you can find in the black forest that you can plant and farm

[supple relic]

alr cool which ones do you recimmend

[lost swift]

I don't wanna spoil anything - look around the Black Forest for white flowers and pick them

[supple relic]

alr

[lost swift]

I will spoil if you want me to but no spoilers is my default mode hahaha

[scenic sundial]

im having trouble finding the merchant who sells the belt lol

[winged vortex]

If i just sit afk in the ocen will a serpent spawn or do i need to be miving

[cosmic cedar]

Hello

I have a quick question

can you parry with a two handed weapon?

[steep tusk]

Yes.

Tower shields can't parry. All other shields and weapons can.

[scenic sundial]

preferably moving

[snow vault]

do wolfs eat lox meat ?

[junior ingot]

any raw meat

[snow vault]

ty

[ripe bone]

you have to find their spawn points, they don't change from what i know

[true steeple]

Serpents don’t have set spawn points. They spawn randomly like almost everything else

[ripe bone]

i thought i heard something about people marking night spawns on the map

[true steeple]

You probably did, a lot of people believe that

[frosty frost]

Lot of people also believe that serpents can spawn in daytime because the storm spawns dont despawn and they find them at daytime.

[ebon marsh]

It helps to note on the map where you’ve had serpents spawn and to roam those areas next time it’s night and or stormy

[frosty frost]

Well the only requirement is that its a full ocean zone+night and/or storm 🙂 so if you just have large enough ocean the serpents will spawn there, not actual need for marking specific location

[last osprey]

They're not random. They don't have spawn points but spawn zones. 5% chance of spawning during night, 5% of spawning during storms, stacking. Per zone.
So your best bet is finding a stretch of ocean that you know has serpent spawns and sailing diagonally to maximize the number of zones you pass through.

[true steeple]

Ocean zones are serpent spawn zones. Any ocean is as good as another if it’s the same size

[last osprey]

Some stretches of ocean at least SEEM to spawn serpents more often, but that could admittedly just be random luck. It's not like i hunt enough serpents to get a statistically relevant sample size.

[candid igloo]

Im using a laptop that has AMD Ryzen 7 5800h processor with Radeon Graphics 8 Core, should I start the game in Vulkan mode or normal mode?

[loud linden]

If you can run it in Vulkan, do it. If you have any issues, drop it back.

[candid igloo]

Thank you ahhh okay so vulkan is more intense but better looking

[crisp otter]

Do I have to kill ||kvastur|| for 100% trophy collection?

[frosty frost]

Since he drops trophy i would assume so

[crisp otter]

How cruel

How very cruel.

[frosty frost]

He will respawn eventualy 😉

[loud linden]

It's supposed to be a low-resource alternative to earlier stuff like OpenGL.

[loud linden]

You don't need to. The Swamp mobs will get the best of it eventually.

[crisp otter]

I thought they were not hostile within the perimeter?

[frosty frost]

Kvastur sometimes decides to go on little trip 😄

[loud linden]

I got my trophy from Draugr attacking it.

[crisp otter]

My god. With his defenses?

[frosty frost]

And the witches "dome of protection" is somewhat faulty, enemies can aggro on you if they see you and you are inside the hut 🙂

[green bolt]

what kind of monster would attack it tho? and what kind of monster would make it an attackable npc?

[frosty frost]

1. No idea, but maybe me if i really want the broom for decoration
2. Devs 😄

[loud linden]

Broom Lives Matter

[green bolt]

i personally blame smiffe

[chilly shadow]

I forget the broom has a name, wild.

[buoyant peak]

try both. We can't know

[wheat sedge]

any tips for the plains biome?

[true steeple]

If you're having trouble hitting deathsquitos before they hit you, just block first. You can bring a root harnesk to reduce their damage. You can use growths to help fight fuling camps

[wheat sedge]

and what about loxs?

[junior epoch]

Could someone tell me whats going on here, im lost lol

[green bolt]

wood can not support stone

[junior epoch]

its on the ground though and the whole left half is already built with stone

[green bolt]

there might be uneven floor, the parts that hold are probably touching the ground, but the ones that break would only be supportet by wood, which does not work

[junior epoch]

I see

ill try to break it and level it out

[true steeple]

The stone that isn't breaking is blue which means it's touching terrain

So you need all the stone to be touching terrain

[jaunty kayak]

Can you still place boats on not water things

I need my silver down the mountain

Nevermind

[chilly shadow]

A cart works better imo

[frosty frost]

Both ways work reasonably well 😄 but you can actually somewhat control the cart when its not falling

[candid igloo]

Which works better for you so far?

[buoyant peak]

Didn't notice any difference when using both

[loud linden]

The ground level under your wood is not level. Some is high enough to provide a foundation (placing stone that appears blue), and some is lower than your build level. Raise the ground floor under your wood.

[tiny violet]

||they are tame-able with cloudberries. Some people just drop the cloudberries and hide behind trees to tame. I aometimes use hoe and stone to raise ground around them. Otherwise bow and arrow works decent (fire arrows pretty good) and once you’re kind of strong enough you can fight them head on with parrying. They are mostly gentle giants, you can sneak around them. But strong when aggroed.||

[true steeple]

Fang spear is a very good melee option, and the porcupine craftable with plains materials

[untold cradle]

if i want to experiment with max level skills how do i max them with commands

or do i need a mod for this

[cosmic cedar]

Hello

Quick question

[frosty frost]

Raiseskill "skill_name" 100 or raiseskill all 100

[cosmic cedar]

do I need a boat to get to the elder?

[frosty frost]

Not necessarily but at lot of worlds you do, depends on your seed

[untold cradle]

thank you
@cosmic cedar depends on your map you may need one if the summoning alter is not located on teh main island

[cosmic cedar]

Ok, then how do get so much finewood? I only got a little by breaking a little boat on the black forest shore

[untold cradle]

its saying its invalid in the current context

[frosty frost]

Did you type devcommands first?

[untold cradle]

oh my OS has a different method of enabling cheats

[frosty frost]

Oh are you on xbox or mac?

[untold cradle]

mac

[wheat sedge]

do fulings respawn?

[frosty frost]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console#Enabling_the_console look here if you dont know then 😄

[frosty frost]

Fullings? They spawn in plains generally but the camps will not respawn if you are asking that https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Fuling

[scenic sundial]

should i use fang spear or silver sword

[true steeple]

Lox are resistant to slash

[scenic sundial]

sorry, for the mountain

[true steeple]

Against wolves it doesn’t matter. You want an iron mace for stone golems

[untold cradle]

im using macos steam there it should have worked the first time

[frosty frost]

Do you have console enabled?

[untold cradle]

yes

ill restart and try again

[frosty frost]

Then "F5" -> "devcommands" -> "raiseskill all 100" should do the trick 🤔

[untold cradle]

alr ty for the help

[wheat sedge]

whats the best way to kill growths?

[true steeple]

Frostner is very effective, or make them fight some lox or a fuling camp for you
(They attack plains enemies)

[frail cave]

not rly asking for help, just wanted to ask since I came back from a year back to valheim on a new world n character, i dont remember this kind of world generation (it looks sick af) just curious am i tripping or was world gen updated?

that was always possible, it just requires high terrain on the starting island

[frail cave]

it looks dope ngl

the starting island has the most potential for terrain variety of any part of the map, there are a good few ways for it to look cool or pretty~

[hardy veldt]

if i destroy a smelter with coal in it will i loose the coal?

[frail cave]

if i remember correctly, it'll drop the coal

[hardy veldt]

ty it did

[steep tusk]

You will loose the coal onto the ground, so yes, you will loose it.

[hardy veldt]

what do i make first bronze helmet bronze weapons or cultivator?

[steep tusk]

You are the sole person who decides that.

[hardy veldt]

cultivators probably best

[noble vault]

What are the rules for sap collection with regards to the radius the player has to be in? I have some extractors far away, two per root, and I always come back to one at 10/10, and one at 2/10, even though the roots are clearly re-generating to 'pulsating with energy'

[narrow python]

is there some sort of light source dampening effect in plains? I've just built a new house in plains, with dvergr wall lanterns, and it's incredible how many did I have to use to make the place lit barely enough

[true steeple]

Dvergr lanterns don't emit much light

[untold cradle]

axe -> cultivator

from what i've heard armor is a waste of time just use troll

use troll and upgrade it to 3/4 and use it till you can get either fenrir or wolf armour

[steep tusk]

Cultivator > all.

[frosty frost]

Axe and cultivator are pretty much interchangeable, doesent matter much which you make first, and usually you have enough for both from first batch

[untold cradle]

i mean axe unlocks fine wood, fine bow and all that stuff super important

[steep tusk]

And bronze armor is not a waste. Troll relies on you actually having good troll spawns. Not everyone is so lucky.

[frosty frost]

Same as farming 😉

[steep tusk]

Food is the most important stat in this game.

[untold cradle]

i still think bronze armour is too time consuming for it to be worth upgrading unless ur keeping it at 1 quality

[steep tusk]

Time consuming compared to..?

[untold cradle]

getting troll armour

[steep tusk]

See previous about relying on RNG 🤦‍♂️

If you have good troll spawns, go get troll armor.

If you have shit troll spawns, you will have Bronze first.

[frail cave]

trolls really aren't that rare unless you wander as little as possible

[untold cradle]

reason i didn't mention rng is cause i've never had issues with finding trolls lol

[steep tusk]

Winter... I will give you my previous seed if you want to experience horrible troll rng 🙃

[frail cave]

it'll be fresh RNG

[steep tusk]

I ran it before running the seed you gave me (so just after Ashlands dropped), still horrible troll rng 😁

Also bronze will always have the uncontested best helmet in the game.

[frail cave]

that's not seed-dependent the only fixed troll spawn locations are the ones at troll caves. all the trolls you encounter out in the wild just spawn randomly around you anywhere in black forest, even at the borders

whats that popping with a ding sound whenever you sometimes collect a resource, is it like a lucky find? and whats it based on

[steep tusk]

Skill.

[true steeple]

[jagged crown]

anyone have some advice on how to beat the elder solo?

[subtle parrot]

Finewood bow and fire arrows and/or an axe

[prisma hornet]

If you are at range, use the towers to avoid his range attacks, if you plan on melee, upgraded bone tower shield with heavy armor and you can tank his attacks easily

[jagged crown]

ok thanks. What food do I bring? I got beaten by it recently and it doesn't look good for me

[subtle parrot]

Deer stew carrot soup and another health food should be fine

[steep tusk]

Dodgeroll the stomp.
1 Health, 2 Stamina foods so you can continually whack until dead.

[true steeple]

Deer stew, carrot soup and either minced meat sauce or queen’s jam

[jagged crown]

i only have the pork jerky and jam unlocked

[steep tusk]

Go find Carrots asap.

[jagged crown]

i keep finding carrot seeds but no carrots

[steep tusk]

🤦‍♂️

Plant the seeds???

[true steeple]

Make a cultivator with bronze and core wood (from pine trees)

[jagged crown]

ayt my dude. I have just started and barely know how to do some of this

[steep tusk]

Ok, you can point at me with the "ayt my dude" when you explain what you legit thought you were supposed to do with seeds that did not involve planting.

Otherwish my point stands.

[jagged crown]

ok bud

i see birch trees and birch seeds (havent planted one), i see oak trees and acorns (havent planted one) but yeah somehow I'm not supposed to think that if I see carrot seeds I'll see carrots as well?

[prisma hornet]

Cannot overstate the importance of a rested buff for fighting any boss also, make sure you get a good long one before making another attempt

[jagged crown]

thanks man. Unfortunately my base is pretty far from the elder boss and I get about 12 mins of the buff and it takes me around 3 mins to get there without using that one eikthyr buff

[true steeple]

You should be using portals

[prisma hornet]

9 min is plenty of time to whack him. You get your buff and then set out immediately. A portal dropped a little ways from the altar is also legit

[jagged crown]

my base is kinda scuffed rn so I have no real place to put portals. i went in semi-blind so i can have some fun learning but now i want to improve my game

btw does the boss despawn? I got whacked and went to recover my stuff but the elder was still there but it's been like 5 in game days so does it despawn or stay there till i come back?

[prisma hornet]

Oooooo…uh I don’t know. I don’t think a boss has ever killed me…which I find hilarious because that makes falling trees statistically more deadly for me 🤣

[steep tusk]

Years later, trees remain my number 1 cause of death.

[true steeple]

Bosses don’t despawn

can i get this tar in the middle?

[steep tusk]

Drain the pit.

[wheat sedge]

how?

[steep tusk]

Think.

You need to move the liquid, how can you do that?

[scenic sundial]

Can i have boars/chickens free range without pens? (In a giant enclosed space?) such as my base which has a big courtyard.

[steep tusk]

As long as the space is closed in somewhere, yes.

[wheat sedge]

i thought it needed an item or sum

[steep tusk]

There is no special item needed.

You need to give the liquid somewhere to go, how can you do that?

[frosty frost]

Liquid flows to the lowest point it can right? 🙂 But it needs a way to flow through.

[junior epoch]

obviously drink it all

one chug

[royal void]

did they remove copper collapsing?

[lilac coyote]

No.

[sturdy folio]

Even though it looks as though you cleared the area some part of the node will still be connected to the ground, even when it looks as if it's floating

[frosty frost]

Yeah, the hitboxes are blocks with all right angles and they have to fit the whole non-right-angled piece of copper inside them, as a result they are quite a bit bigger that the model you see and can hit 🙂

[ruby shale]

Is it common that in the mistlands there are constant framerate drops? in the mountains right next to the mists im running at 140 no stutters but in it im constantly running 30 fps bad stutters every few seconds

whats the devcommands name for corewood?

roundlog

the item ID's are really fucking weird....

they can all be found on the wiki pages for the specific item

[turbid maple]

obliterator is called disintegrator

[noble vault]

how does 'space' as described on the wiki work for crops? I see for example that onions need '1m', but I see plenty of onions that I've given far less than 1m between two

[frail cave]

it's a bit inconsistent, i've seen plenty of crops grow to full after they complained about "not enough space"

[noble vault]

guess i'll have to live with imperfection in the video game I like

[brisk plover]

Is this a new feature or a bug?
I have the ||Meginjord|| in my Active Power and I am able to use it.
I do not have it equipped in my inventory but I did stash it in my cart.

[delicate herald]

Alright guys, I have been trying to find haldor for days now and cant, any one have any ideas where he might be?

[turbid maple]

Keep searching for black forests pretty much

[subtle parrot]

He could be just about anywhere there's black forest, but there are 10 locations he could be on the map whichever you come close to first will be where he spawns in.

[turbid maple]

unless you can want to use a map viewer to find out

[delicate herald]

😦

[turbid maple]

Good item pool

[noble tapir]

i'd peronsally run around here first

[turbid maple]

Traders aren't essential to win the game...
but they make your viking life a helluva lot easier

hope you been saving those gems and other treasures

[delicate herald]

I have 5 stacks of rubies, 3 stacks of pearls, and a bunch of amber

[turbid maple]

good

you can get necklaces if you dig around in the ship shaped graveyards in the meadows, but it's not guranteed

[prisma current]

me when I found out I can't bind setkey:
(okay, it does work, but it doesn't run the commands when I press the key is what I mean here)

I'm making a customized world experience type thing that's more fun for returning people and having to run each setkey command one by one kinda sucks

[delicate herald]

No luck on bottom checking top

At neither island

Haldor is a myth

[pearl hemlock]

haldor might be near hildir i watched a guid saying they like share some type of spawning pattern together

[languid sapphire]

is it better to throw unstacked food for boars to tame or throwing the whole stack does the same amount of taming?

[lilac coyote]

Completely independent.

[pearl hemlock]

you would think so but there is no reason there wouldnt be some sort of linked algorithm between the three trades

although yah you prob right

[lilac coyote]

The reason is that it would make no sense and yes, I'm right. Just another weird myth this game seems to acquire.

[sturdy folio]

Haldor - 1 of 10 Black Forest locations
Hildir - 1 of 10 meadow locations (although I’ve found her on a tiny meadows bordering plains biome twice now)

3rd one I’m completely blanking on

[pearl hemlock]

yep games do aquire alot of myths lol

[pearl hemlock]

also 1 in 10 in swamp

[sturdy folio]

Ah that’s the one

Bog witch

[turbid maple]

Whole stack

plus it's really funny to see all the boars turn towards the food stack and shamble towards it

[delicate herald]

I've visited over 10 black forest now

No haldor

Keep exploring, eventually you'll find em

[languid sapphire]

So even if I throw whole stack they will eat it one by one right ?

[frail cave]

yes

[rare star]

Are you guys hiding some Yule Trees in basements so you can remove the xmas decoration and keep the extra confort level?

Or u'll keep the Yule tree up forever?

[half reef]

I love hiding stuff in the basement

[steep tusk]

Bah. Humbug.

[frail cave]

i hide several things under the floor just to keep the room coherent, many of the comfort objects just don't fit the same type of room and 10 meters is a pretty small radius

[rare star]

Yeah, I need to dig a basement for most o my buildins, so I can start doing so

[steep tusk]

My room is usually on the second floor, so no basement to hide things in 😄

But I also cap my Comfort level at 14, so 🤷‍♂️

[rare star]

I do have a second floor where I keep some chests and some confort stuff, but I'm still missing a hiden basement

Whats happening in that voice channel? Lot of people there

[frail cave]

valheim i guess, the vcs have been pretty busy for a few days

[gilded lily]

Dvergr Lifeboat Association seeking new members

[cinder copper]

so i backed up a world and now i cant get the original back please help me

fixed it

but theres still this hole thing at my base

[copper moth]

Is it possible to keep players from using unapproved mods on a server or preventing them from bringing in items from other servers?

[true steeple]

Unless there's a mod to do this, no

[copper moth]

is there a mod that does this??

[true steeple]

I don't know. #mods-discussion could help?

[turbid maple]

do not jump into the void

[true steeple]

Why not find out where it goes?

[cinder copper]

i just get teleported above

[turbid maple]

lol

[cinder copper]

so is there anyone who can actually help me fix this issue

[jagged crown]

Does anyone know how long it takes for carrots to grow? Like in-game days or something?

[steep tusk]

All plantables take 2-3 days iirc.

[jagged crown]

when there's a healthy label on it, does it mean it's good to be harvested?

[steep tusk]

No, that means it is growing.

[turbid maple]

they come in 3 stages

seeded, growing, mature

[steep tusk]

It will have a "Press E to Harvest" when it is ready.

[turbid maple]

(also dead if you manage to screw it up)

[cinder copper]

can someone please tell me how to fix my wall and i cant rebuild it cause hoes doesnt work

[jagged crown]

ah ok. so i just wait till i get the prompt

[turbid maple]

lets just say not all biomes can support all kinds of plant life, some much less than others

don't expect carrots to grow on a mountain for example

[jagged crown]

got it. i'm in the meadowlands so i think i'm good there

[true steeple]

Is a pickaxe doing anything?

[cinder copper]

just making a super deep hole

[torn ridge]

hello I need help with a hosted world issue

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server

[proper python]

what are the gamefound exclusives? Are they included in my pledge?

[smoky frigate]

Hey guys ! I have a few questions. I want to start a new run with a friend and wanted to know if anyone made some experiences with g-portal as a server host. Because weve had our server there but dont know if we get our safefiles back because it was like a year ago. The second question dedicated to the newest updates. Are any updates since a year ago are safegame compatible or did we have to start from scratch?

[subtle parrot]

As for the dedicated server question, you may ask that in #dedicated-server
But the new content will load into old worlds as long as you have unexplored areas in that world that pertain to the new content. Like the new NPC in the swamp, as long as you have an unexplored swamp, they'll spawn.

[smoky frigate]

Thanks for the quick help dude!

[cinder copper]

is there any commands to make an area flat quick

[chilly shadow]

Yes but it creates a lot of instances iirc, so it can effect performance pretty heavily

[cinder copper]

can i choose how lagre

[chilly shadow]

I think so, I'm not familiar with the command. Just aware of its existence

[cinder copper]

whats the command?

[chilly shadow]

Hmmm... I may have been mistaken? I can't seem to find it

Maybe it was a mod

[dense umbra]

Hello, im trying to make a spinning wheel but I dont get how I make it. I have an Artisan table and I'm standing next to it, I have killed Moder.

[cinder copper]

how can i make someone admin in my server

with console commands

[dense umbra]

Nvm realized why! I have never crafted iron nails hahahaha

[cosmic cedar]

Hello

in the middle of fighting the elder rn

will he lose aggro if me and the boss get far from his spawn location?

[frail cave]

he'll keep going after you for as long as you're within his aggro range, no matter how far you lead him away

if he's unloaded, he of course can't move

[cosmic cedar]

ok thanks

Also are there any drawbacks to defeating him?

Like defeating Eikthyr unlocking raids

[true steeple]

Some stronger raids will happen and greydwarf brutes will spawn at night

[cosmic cedar]

ok thanks a bunch

[jagged crown]

im currently being raided and I am not prepared. Bunch of greyelves, bruts and shamans. Could i just run around my base till the "forest is moving" notif goes away and they'll just leave?

[thorn spire]

yes

[jagged crown]

oh nice. Wish me luck with that strat

yep it worked. thanks

[noble vault]

@exotic lynx you may enjoy a method of storage like this

[slate quail]

hello
are there backpacks in the game? or something that improves your storage?

[steep tusk]

There are no backpacks.
Mainly because storage is completely fine.

Best advice is "stop carrying things you don't need."

[slate quail]

okay! thank you for your help#

[steep tusk]

One of the traders sells a belt that increases you weight capacity, if you haven't found him yet.

But there is nothing for more slots.

[noble vault]

Creating a good storage system, an armory with organised gear, and a quick travel system linking to it helps to keep inventory organised. When I do chores in the ashlands, this is my gear. (I eat triple feast which works well enough)

[steep tusk]

Pain 😭

[noble vault]

lol, this is what I get for being vulnerable 😛 what's wrong?

[steep tusk]

If you have Berserkir Axes, why are you carrying Jotun's?

[noble vault]

ah - because I like to keep my berserkir axes free for actually dealing dps when I need to - and jotuns I use for when I need to carry a buttload of ashwood

but then I also tend to go along with fader power and a couple troll endurance

[steep tusk]

🤔

[noble vault]

tbh I should consider carrying a portal, instead..

[steep tusk]

You can cut wood with Berserkir though.

[noble vault]

Yes, but if I have to fight enemies, it's nice not having a destroyed berserkir. I use them a lot, I just leave a few good hits in them

[steep tusk]

Interesting.
I know this is "BuT i'Ve NeVeR" - but, personally, have never run into durability issues with them.

[tired root]

Jotun Pain 🙃

[tired root]

You could make backup Berserkirs

Unenchanted axes can be upgraded to quality 3

[noble vault]

see, I post a super minimal inventory and people are already telling me to do it better. inventory space is fine 😛

[steep tusk]

My backup ones are enchanted 😄
Bloodserkirs for Wood and single-target.
Lingserkirs for groups.

[noble vault]

making two of the same thing - wtf, why didn't I think about that?

yup, i'll do that, thanks. lvl 3 axes here we go

[steep tusk]

The only thing you could do "better" is have your clothes in the proper order 😉

Hat - Cape - Chest - Belt - Pants

😛 😛 😄

[tired root]

Hey it was Sev who started with Jotun Bane 😁

[noble vault]

oh no I will fight you 😛 this order is perfect!

[steep tusk]

⚔️

[strong geyser]

Is Ashlands boss item a place holder?

Ty

[true steeple]

Yes, like the two previous drops were before the next biomes released

[steep tusk]

You put your cape below your pants when getting dressed in the morning? 😭

[noble vault]

I'm in a good mood now. I'm gonna cut trees like a crazy person

[steep tusk]

What kind of trees? 😏

[noble vault]

ashwood

[steep tusk]

Brittany headed to the Ashlands like:

I'M GONNA WRECK IT!

[noble vault]

hah, i'm not that confident. I still take a lot of care there to avoid dying tbh

[tired root]

If that's your chore setup, what is your proper combat setup?

[mellow lodge]

probably meads, i'd guess

i tend to carry 4 meads when i'm fighting

[true steeple]

I store my equipment in the six slots on the right of my inventory
Ammo, Helmet
Cape, Chest
Accessory, Boots

And food goes on the left if I'm carrying it

[noble vault]

It depends. That setup is ashlands chores. My setup for farming is very different. I use all sorts for different tasks. Like power levelling blocking, I'll be in full flametal/ashen/meads and spawn like six billion elders lol

I tend to mix things up, too, because I want to level everything

[still blaze]

If I go to the sealed tower in the bottom left is it possible that I come close to the mistlands?

[true steeple]

It might be possible (I can’t remember how far mistlands start appearing), but you shouldn’t need to enter any to reach there

[still blaze]

Alright thanks, because I don’t want to run into it yet

[last osprey]

probable, but most likely you'll only see it from a distance i'd say from eyeballing it. Mistlands generally start appearing slightly past the first half of the map radius and the marker is pretty much on that line.

[wheat sedge]

is there a way to delete an item?

[last osprey]

obliterator, throw it into the ocean or just drop it somewhere without any base items and don't come back for a while.

[steep tusk]

Things left outside the radius of a work station will despawn in a couple days.

If you have found Haldor + have access to Iron, you can make the Obliterator, which will destroy items and use an internal points system to convert them into Coal.

[bitter kiln]

Is there a way I can influence the raids for mistlands tier to happen? I am ready to fight the queen but have not seen either raid, and I would like to see them at least once before progressing

[ripe bone]

turn up raids in the world modifiers

[bitter kiln]

Did not know that was an option, good idea

[lilac coyote]

Doesn't change the chance of which raids get triggered though.

[bitter kiln]

Makes sense. I'm fine sitting through a few more until I see the ones I want though

I've probably spent like 20 hours in the plains building my base and am surprised I haven't at least seen the one yet. Only trolls, surtlings, and skeletons

[last osprey]

Gjall raids only spawn in Mistlands so you need a base there. It also gives a higher chance for getting a seeker raid since Mistlands only spawn bats, skeletons, seekers, gjall and the hildir raids iirc.

[bitter kiln]

Ohhh, smart. I knew about the Gjall raid only being there from the wiki ( I waited until I did about everything in the mistlands before letting myself look) but I didn't think about how it would increase my odds for the seeker raid. Thank you!

I've been meaning to make a combined mushroom/sap farm

[sterile owl]

Does anyone know how to impliment a generated seed into a new world when you make a new server?

[lilac coyote]

Create it in single player then copy the world files over.

[sterile owl]

but if i go on a seed generator web page, find a map i really like and wanna play on. how do i impliment that info ( seed name) into the generateing of a new server?

[lilac coyote]

Create it in single player then copy the world files over.

[rocky mountain]

hello i just got my pc back and was gonna try valheim but my world is emty and i tried doing the back ups and i cant seem to get it to work

can anyone help

im trying to post some screen shots but having trouble

[daring harbor]

Me (on pc) and my friend ( on xbox) were playing on my hosted server from my pc just fine a few days ago, the past 2 days we've been having an issue with being unable to connect/ not asking for password/ cant resolve join code. its been a head scratcher trying to resolve this issue, opened all ports on my router, allowed the ports thru my fire wall, also tried turning firewall completely off, Theres some times where the code will work and it will add my hosted server to their favorites and show that im in (1/10 players) and it still wont let them connect/ ask for password. On the other hand theres some instances, very rarley where their able to get in the server and connect, But after some time, roughly 10- 30 ish mins they get disconnected and cant join back. If anyone else has had this issue id like to know if you were able to get it resolved

[daring harbor]

are you trying cloud backup or local backup?

[rocky mountain]

both

[daring harbor]

What did you mean by you just got your pc back

[rocky mountain]

i ant find the screenshots even tho i did like 4

ive ben away from home and moved to alaska and didnt bring my pc with me but now i got it back and my world is just emty

[daring harbor]

oh i was assuming you took it to get a repair.

Did you try verifying the games intergerty of files?

[rocky mountain]

no ill try that out

[daring harbor]

curious, do you remeber ever using the manage saves button ingame and click move to local?

[noble tapir]

that's likely not the issue - you sure you didn't start a new world last time and you're restoring the wrong one?

[noble tapir]

it's usually in your Videos\Valheim folder

if you're on nvidia, not sure what program you're using to capture

[rocky mountain]

it didnt work sadly i might have to start over🥲

[noble tapir]

well, from what i see, there are 2 large files there, and multiple small worlds, you need to restore the larger files

[rocky mountain]

okey ill try the small ones are from me trying to get my world back

[hardy veldt]

where would the skull be?

[ripe bone]

ribs don't always equal skulls

[mellow lodge]

ribs spawn without a skull usually

[ripe bone]

i said it first 🧡

[mellow lodge]

you did

[rocky mountain]

i got it thank you all

[chilly lily]

uh... how do i get my stuff back from cultists in a frost cave with only 25 hp, i just got back into the game and i lost my stuff to them...

[lilac coyote]

How are you only on 25hp?

[compact heath]

you eat first, therefore more than 25 hp also bring some frost mead if the portal nearby requires a bit of a run through mountains and is not right outside the frost cave

[prime spindle]

I have a ZDO active of 420,00p and not sure how it got so high, nor what it even means. Periodically I check for instances count, and this number often floated below 50,000 from most I remember.

What affects this? And is it bad for my game?

[ebon marsh]

Do you have any mods active

[haughty siren]

hiiii! my friend and i aren't able to craft despite having the required materials and station level. The button to craft is greyed out as it says "Missing Requirement". Does anybody know how to fix this?

[compact heath]

sounds like #mods-issues

[ripe bone]

y

[compact heath]

there is also at least 1 recipe where the requirements are 6 different items, so the requirement window will switch between 1 of them and the other 5 and not show all at once, only one item like that I think

[haughty siren]

No it wasn't anything like that, we even held wood to see if we could craft wooden arrows and nothing worked.

[frosty frost]

What item?

[haughty siren]

Every item, crafting will occassionally return at random times. Sometimes if we take down the workbench/forge/etc and build it back up that works from time to time too.

[frosty frost]

Thats weird, are you using any mods?

[haughty siren]

I think she may have used dev commands briefly and it seems like things went a bit weird after that

She reinstalled the game, verified her game files and everything

Even deleted her character and started up a new world

[frosty frost]

Devcommands should not affect crafting in this way, it may unlock all recipes or maybe un-discover them, but not prevent crafting while you have the recipes. If there are some mods installed then get rid of all traces of them, but other than that i am not sure.

[haughty siren]

Thats the only thing we've done is the devcommands. Nothing else, never installed any outside mods to cause this problem

[frosty frost]

And are you totally sure you have all materials for the stuff? (But yeah is really strange that every recipe does it)

[haughty siren]

Yes we have absolutely everything for the recipes

[proud prism]

yo, if you breed a 2 star asksvin with a 1 star, its a 50% chance of getting a 2 star egg right

[frosty frost]

Basically yes, the egg inherits the stars of the asksvin that did lay it

[proud prism]

if my 2 star doesnt lay, im going to shrivel up into a ball and cry in a corner

[prime spindle]

About 20. My kid plays with me but his ZDOs are less than 50k on the same server

[bold parcel]

Got an entire black chest worth of stone.. what should I do with it -.-

[steep tusk]

Build.

[bold parcel]

I'm in the process of rebuilding my castle with black marble...

[steep tusk]

You have a chest filled with a building material.
What did you think the possible suggestions were going to be?

[bold parcel]

fair point

[chilly shadow]

Turn it into coal

[frail cave]

this suggestion hurts my soul

[chilly shadow]

As it should.

[blazing tinsel]

Hey, I got a question that may be stupid. But how come the boss of the silver biome is resistant to the silver weapons? I feel kind of forced to use an iron weapon and the bow.

[little trench]

u mean spirit dmg? that stuff is meant for undead and alike

[frail cave]

draugr fang doesn't deal any spirit damage so it still outdoes the huntsman bow.
the silver sword still has more slash than the iron sword so that's an upgrade too.
but yea frostner is much less effective than the iron mace because she's immune to spirit and frost.

[blazing tinsel]

Spirit/Frost yeah, the boss is resistant to both. I have the draugr fang but all silver weapons seem to have spirit/frost. It´s not that I won´t beat the shit out of the boss but it feels counterintuitive somehow

[little trench]

u can use fang spear, which is a silver age spear that does pierce dmg. moder is neutral to pierce

ah yea ik what u mean

[blazing tinsel]

Fang Spear thanks, that is the answer I was looking for. Makes sense to hunt a dragon with a spear anyways.

[frail cave]

(resistant would be x0.5 damage, she's immune / x0 damage)

[frosty frost]

Well she is immune to spirit since she is not an undead 😄 and immune to frost since she is a dragon living in mountains, frost enviroment, that all makes sense to me 🙂

[frail cave]

just checked
a level 1 silver knife also has more physical damage than a level 4 abyssal razor, same for level 1 crystal battleaxe vs level 4 iron battleaxe, the immunity seems to only be a big problem for maces because of frostner's unique damage distribution 😅

[frosty frost]

So any mountain tier weapon other than frostner is valid option 👍

[buoyant peak]

It really isn't.

The weapons are there for variety and options reasons, doesn't mean every single one will be useful against every single enemy of the biome the weapon is from.

[steep tusk]

Frostner is never a valid option 😏 😉 😄

/s

[hoary ocean]

I am the only one who thinks Balista are useless? They constantly miss, can only target 1 unit type, or else you get shot as well. and they are too expensive for little they offer? They do look cool though

[lilac coyote]

No, plenty of other people are also wrong.

[hoary ocean]

then what do I need to do to make them effective, create funnel shapes all around my base?

[tepid dagger]

help me how to give a friend a developer mode in my world?

[frosty frost]

You cant unfortunately

But if you only want to build you an turn on no build cost in that world

[tepid dagger]

I need to open the entire map

but you can't do this with admin rights

[frosty frost]

Open entire map?

[tepid dagger]

all map

[frosty frost]

Do you mean reveal it so you can see all the islands and biomes?

[tepid dagger]

yes

[frosty frost]

You can use the seed and map generator for that.

[subtle parrot]

Idk if it will work this way cause I've never tried it, but you might be able to build the cartography table and then you use the devcommand "exploremap" and then activate the cartography table and then your friend can look at the table.

[frail cave]

yes, that should work

[hoary ocean]

..... erm, message for the devs I guess... would be nice if things connected visually better. 😮

[subtle parrot]

Turn tessellation off

[hoary ocean]

what does that do? if its an option that I should remove, then that means the original creative intention from the devs is this crooked version of materials that doesn't match proprely with each other. which is not the point of this post.

[frail cave]

it's a fault of grausten being the same thickness as wood beams.
all early materials are slightly warped like this to give them a less "perfect" appearance and as an anti-z-fighting measure, since it almost always prevents two faces from perfectly overlapping

[steep tusk]

Are you stating annoyance with the perfectly fine arch or with the Graus sticking through the wood?

[hoary ocean]

The Grauss sticking through the wood when you can see there's no issue around the other wood beans.

that jsut means they decided to have a few vertex be 0.2 offset with the rest which why it's peaking through.

which is a creative choice, that feels off in my idea. (which I don,t think they made it intentionnaly, hence why I'm pointing it out)

[frail cave]

imo there's a truckload of problems with the build pieces introduced in ashlands 😅

[steep tusk]

Highly, EXTREMELY, and with the most feeling I can possibly have doubt they compared new material to all previous materials and decided to have it be off.

Most likely they just... made the new material.

[hoary ocean]

awh bummer, we just reached Ashland. so I'm discovering them slowly but surely I guess

[frail cave]

if you like em, that's great! and there are definitely ways to make them work, most of my opinions about them boil down to that they stylistically clash too much with all other materials, including even black marble.
much like many other ashlands assets, they kinda look like they're from a different game

[hoary ocean]

it's the same fealing I get currently.

hoping to experiment and see for myself better though.

[frail cave]

i find it funny that the item describes grausten as "porous" but then it looks like the least porous rock we have yet, the grausten pile straight up looks like wet clay

[hoary ocean]

oh... yep. I see what you mean now.

oh... even the texture size is different from 1 piece to the other.

but Ashland as a biome looks fantastic though. at least there's possitives.

there just seem to be artistic oversights and lack of testing with the building.

[rare star]

Yeah, agreed. Had some problems with that too

Things dont seem to align properly

[glass vale]

Good evening, I have the following problem, yesterday I spent 3 hours in the game with a friend, and before exiting there was an auto save, in addition to this I saved it manually.
Today I go into the game and see that the save has been rolled back for these 3 hours, there is a backup file, but when I press the “restore” button it gives the error “failed to restore the save”
What to do?

[bold parcel]

Do you guys just run in and explore new areas, or move around carefully when scouting?

[true steeple]

It depends on what I’m scouting for

[bold parcel]

I'm about to go into my second set of mistlands, I still think the slow methodical approach worked well for me (haven't died in mistlands yet) - or even in the plains for that matter...

But i still get the feeling i'm taking too long to get through a biome

[true steeple]

You can’t take too long

[bold parcel]

Okay 😄

[mellow lodge]

if you're having fun doing it your way, why the rush? game isn't finished yet either

[bold parcel]

Do you guys use lingering stamina potions much? I managed to brew some major healing potions already, just thinking of what else I should be brewing off cooldown

[true steeple]

Lightfoot mead is incredibly useful

Get your Viking addicted to it

[mellow lodge]

i use the jump and speed mead a bunch, and of course healing. I always forget to bring stam meads when i'm melee build, but regret it

[bold parcel]

ok, i guess i'll go looking for the bogwitch

[mellow lodge]

betcha a gold coin you'll find her near Bonemass 🙂

[boreal pewter]

anyone knows how to bind the use action in the console? simply just the word "use" does nothing

[true steeple]

You bind keys, not actions
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/KeyCode.html

[little trench]

ya lingering stam is very good

[true steeple]

These should all work although I haven't tested. Scroll down a bit for a list of key codes

[boreal pewter]

I mean that I want for example bind the key x to do the use action (while the key e also doing the same thing)
but "bind X use" doesnt work, it does nothing

[true steeple]

There is no use command

The Bind command is used to bind keys to other commands

Use the in-game settings to change key binds

[thorn spire]

hey, does anyone know what tier of chop or pickaxe damage a summoned troll does? Will it destroy the walls of a fortress?

[candid cloak]

Hey all, I was wondering if someone could help me figure our how I did something. I wanted to place a wooden floor tile directly on top of another. So like you have the bottom tile, and sitting on top of that is the second one. Normally you ha e to eyeball it to line them up. Somehow, I made them snap with a door. I don't know how. I can get screen shots later of this, but I'd like to fi d out how to recreate it. Tha k you

[vague goblet]

Simple question, are cartography tables linked if there are multiple in the same world? For instance, if I have on in my base and a friend has another in their base, are those linked or are each independent of one another?

[echo sparrow]

tables are world based

i.e. it only stores info for the world it's made in, and if I'm not mistaken from my interactions it SEEMS like what it does is ONLY store the map data (the fog of war revealed plus pins) for the LAST player that interacted with "record your discoveries"--it DOESN'T create like an 'aggregate map' where it just adds pins and any new fog of war revealed each player that interacts with it

each player just seems to overwrite what map data (if any) it's "holding" currently with their own current map data

[true steeple]

Are you sure the maps aren’t combined? It’s been a while since I played multiplayer but I’m sure that’s how it works

[echo sparrow]

it may have changed but when i started playing on an MP server with some friends we had this problem, where one table wouldn't simultaneously hold the data of everyone adding our individual explorations to it,

it seemed to just have the LAST person's, so we made a table for each person as the workaround (which works just as well, you just update only yours, and read everyone else's))

but I definitely recall us running into the surprise of it NOT still having PRIOR people's additions after someone else added theirs, and this experience with it is where I've drawn my inferences about how it works--TOTALLY possible though they've changed it, I wouldn't know as I haven't interacted with one to test in like months at least

[vague goblet]

My hope is that I can just store one at my base (a) and never have to interact with the one at the main base (b) but have both get updated through those separate interactions. I just always forget to go to the one at the main base (it's hidden away) so I figured this might be an easier solution.

[echo sparrow]

I THINK also WITHIN each world, the tables are separate--i.e. you have to manually update any and all any time you want them to get new data (more map revealed, pins you've added since last updating the table) etc.

i misunderstood your original question now looking back, it was clear you DID mean multiple within one world--I thought you meant like multiple ACROSS different worlds--which, in hindsight, is a silly thing to have thought

[vague goblet]

Thank you, I'll have to test it out tonight and see what happens. It's not incredibly expensive to make obviously but I'm low on raw materials at my newest settlement so I figured I'd ask before gathering the resources for it (I can't even remember the cost, I know it's relatively insignificant though)

[prisma flame]

Will it die?

[true steeple]

It can die but it will eventually respawn. You can kill it, too

[vast kindle]

I was just asking since I just got the game. Thought maybe some newer guys would like to adventure together

[wheat sedge]

is this room big enough for a nice storage room?

[turbid maple]

yes

[idle oar]

how do you deal with getting your stuff back, but there are deathsquetoes everywhere?

[compact heath]

have you found the bog witch yet and are you in the plains already in terms of progression?

[idle oar]

in the plains, just arrived, and when i die at goblin camp, my portal is kinda far, and deathsqutoes are annoying

[compact heath]

if you have old armour like root set or even wolf or something that could help get it back

there is also a potion that helps but requires plains tier fish I think so that might be an option next time, if you can't get it back at all could make a post for help in #1024264966712340510 or get to the Body Recovery Squad they have a discord etc

[idle oar]

ill try wolf armor, and sneaking

[compact heath]

try also make a closer portal if you have lots of portal mats

[idle oar]

what if i were to try troll armor, and sneak past them?

[compact heath]

could work but they can kill you fast in troll armour, or you can try snipe them before they see you with a bow

[idle oar]

i think i will just make temp portals near them with stone blocks as protection

[compact heath]

good food will help

[idle oar]

im going to try temp portals near goblinin camps next time, and i will get my stuff and bring old armor

[compact heath]

I always make portal near fuling camp, not too close but not too far away

[idle oar]

thanks for the tips

[frail cave]

Just curious since I want to get my friend into Valheim but w/ mods, are we able to play mutliplayer with mods?

[gilded rampart]

is the elder key smt I need to hold on to in order to get into thos thigns

[subtle parrot]

Yup

[gilded rampart]

I think I may have lost in when I was moving bases what do I do

[subtle parrot]

Just kill the elder again

[gilded rampart]

if I enable the f5 console is there a way I can spawn smt in?

[subtle parrot]

Yep, the Spawn command

[gilded rampart]

just Spawn then xxxx

says 'spawn' is not a valid in the current context

[subtle parrot]

Yup it would like
Spawn [item id] (number)
No brackets or parenthesis
You need to activate devcommands first by using the command devcommands

[gilded rampart]

got it. Do you know the name of the key as an item?

[subtle parrot]

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

[gilded rampart]

got it what do the places look like in the swamp per say

[subtle parrot]

Not off hand but that's a comprehensive list of all things you can Spawn in

[gilded rampart]

like those cave thign s

[subtle parrot]

They look like a brick entry way to an underground sewer sticking up out of the ground with 2 green torches outside

[gilded rampart]

I found the touches with 4 guards I killed and tourches now what

@subtle parrot

[subtle parrot]

Those aren't the right torches. Only 2 torches next to each other. It looks like a sewer entrance, you'll have to keep looking. There's an iron gate you have to use the key on. You'll know it when you see it.

[zealous hull]

ok, so now with the eiter i got lotta options. i am inclined to go with just basic slash sword and shield (krom and carapace buckler) and himminafl for 2 hand peirce.

but i also got hammer, the knife and shotel, and the mistwalker.
and idk if those are any better. peirce was good for the bugs. idk what mother is weak to. idk what comes after mother either
oh. and arbelest for ranged. the bow just doesnt seem worth it. unless bow shoots 3x faster than arb
plus, all the magic options now too

whaat are we thinkin

[thorn spire]

I think the Krom is 2h so you can't use the buckler with it. Mistwalker is the 1h sword in mistlands.

I like using the bubble to keep me alive and, with the right food, mistwalker with carapace shield or buckler. Usually I've just done a ranged combat setup with magic and arbalest.

[zealous hull]

oh yea. i see that now. oops

[thorn spire]

the mistwalker also has frost, and the slow can be helpful.

Oh, and definitely the demolisher or himminafl for in the mines, though if you've got eitr, you've already been in them.

the AOE on demolisher and polearm secondary can reach 'through' doors and walls.

[zealous hull]

yea. tbh that was annoying. like. these are not useful until after where they would be. but idk what cokmes next.

[thorn spire]

have you taken the queen yet?

[zealous hull]

no thats next

[thorn spire]

got your sealbreaker?

[zealous hull]

yea i only need 1 more. and i have a mine that i have to explore. so

[thorn spire]

get that, then go set up a nice hidey hole outside the queen's lair. You can break the rock and make a nice base behind the structure. You'll see what I mean when you get there.

[ripe bone]

@harsh meteor @native quartz

[harsh meteor]

did they change voltures to become only neutral to spirit?

or do all creatures affected by spirit damage get green flames

[native quartz]

yeah some of them are not dead
but still confusing

[ripe bone]

well "monsters' i allow

[harsh meteor]

because I remember hitting them and them erupting into green flames

[harsh meteor]

vultures arent monsters they are wonderful and amazing creatures 😭

[ripe bone]

all animals are kinda monsters but thats besides the point

[native quartz]

they are important to the ecosystem

[harsh meteor]

are we the true monsters?!?!?!?

[native quartz]

yes

[ripe bone]

bats should be immune, voltures too,but everything else makes sense to me.

[native quartz]

we destroy their home

[harsh meteor]

wow so draugr are just neutral? but they still erupt. I guess all creatures damaged by spirit have that effect

[ripe bone]

yes.

[native quartz]

but what are they weak to?

or they just neutral to most damage

[harsh meteor]

if they're not weak to spirit they ain't weak to anything, just neutral to lots of stuff

immune to poison as all things in the swamp are

[native quartz]

and all things muddy and wet

[rose niche]

Heya. I was wondering. I've heard you have to restart your world when there's a major content update?

[ripe bone]

no

there is no big difference, the biggest content updates are biomes, so if you explore unfinished biomes then the chunks you have loaded in will look weird when they get updated.

[rose niche]

Ah

[frosty frost]

Well there are not vultures but voltures ( since the name takes "vol..." from "volcano") 😉 and they are part of the demon faction thus why they take spirit dmg

[frosty frost]

But for the best experience Its best to not explore in the yet unfinished areas 😄

[harsh meteor]

oh cool i didnt know about the etymology

[frail cave]

green flames? those are just part of the spirit debuff as a whole.
(the debuff sound and visual effects don't get to play if the swing that applies spirit damage is the one that kills the enemy, it has to survive the initial hit)

[ripe bone]

winteerrrrr

[frail cave]

hiya, i'm about to go to bed 😅

[ripe bone]

hi bye

[harsh meteor]

oh I see

[frail cave]

i wouldn't say faction names are to be taken literally, that's just the ashlands faction.
abominations are of the "undead" (swamp) faction but don't take spirit damage for example

[frosty frost]

True that, then i lack an explanation why they take it 😄

[frail cave]

then again i don't know any other explanation for them taking spirit damage so it might as well be true.
(bats are also less clear to me, unless they're secretly vampires but that'd be kinda random)

[ripe bone]

I love chickens sm 🤬

No

[slate cargo]

heyo guys, im currently building a house and wished there were better roof alternatives, im currently at the mountain stage and I'm wondering how easy is it to get tar pre-mistlands? or should I even do it in the first place?

[frosty frost]

You should always get tar pre mistlands 😉

[snow vault]

tar is in the plains and its protected by growth, which are extremly hard to deal with if to prepared

theyr worst than any other mob in the plains ( for me )

if you can bring loxes to fight them for you it will be easier since loxes always managed to kill them all somehow

[bold parcel]

Is it normal to get more seals than black cores? lol

I'm sitting at 7 seals, and 6 black cores. Thank god I can start crafting though

[frosty frost]

Well it Is all RNG but not that rare i would say

[bold parcel]

When you forget to take your food out the oven.

Worst.

[snow vault]

some would say its a good way to get coal😭

[slate cargo]

cant tell if you're joking or not

[frosty frost]

Oh i am not, tar Is from plains which Is biome just before mistlands 😄

[bold parcel]

Do you guys prefer arbalest or spinesnap?

[slate cargo]

how easy are they to kill with draugr fang?

[frosty frost]

Spinesnap, tho both are better than each other in certain situations 🙂

[frosty frost]

Growths? Pretty easy i would say, like 3 shots iirc?

[ripe bone]

idk man....do you like crossbows or bows...do you like spears or maces....do you like light or heavy armor....the only thing you get out of that is random opinions.

[frosty frost]

Yeah Its best to try for yourself which you like more

[slate cargo]

alright thanks alot, ill try finding somes

[bold parcel]

Or experience, there may be obvious reasons I don't see 🙂

[ripe bone]

still situational cuz really what it is, is i think crossbows are better for long distance, and bows can still work in closer quarters combat.

[frosty frost]

Its more that crossbows are more sneak attacking one shot weapons and bows are sustained dps

Tho both can be used in both of those situations

[bold parcel]

OK, i use them against anything i can't melee, or to aggro them, maybe the arbalest is better then

[snow vault]

other way to get guck besides mining them ?

[last osprey]

kill abominations

[charred fable]

The community server I'm on has drops at 1.5. The first 2 mines I found in Mistlands I had 12 seal frags and 4 black cores. RNGesus is a spiteful f*** sometimes

[bold parcel]

i wonder if it's worth mining under the earth for those giant remains for the extra marble.. they take so long to mine

[last osprey]

No, just dismantle dvergr towers and ruins for tons of marble

Also hets you a ton of copper scrap or even iron for the bridge ruins

[bold parcel]

Problem is getting that back to my base, would take too much time lol

[snow vault]

why do my stone throne instantly destroy when i place it down ?

[ripe bone]

if its on the second floor of like wood then it can't be placed...has to be placed on something with blue, ground level stability, mostly stone floors.

[lapis terrace]

it needs to be placed on stone floor or something that is not wood

[bold parcel]

is it me or is jotun bane really bad?

[ebon harness]

Um, so... I got no idea what to do now. I am done with the boss in the mist after some training and arming up, built the new things, even got to the new area, but I'm kind of lost. I looted new stuff, learnt recipes, but I'm kind of unsure what now. Is this just the endgame and that is why?

[bold parcel]

Go south with your new boat

[ebon harness]

Did, explored and looted and built.

[ripe bone]

(i feel like every boss drop that isn't a placeholder should vaguely indicate something you oughta do to progress further)

[ripe bone]

well poison damage is, its still a better tool for chopping.

[little trench]

ya sux

[bold parcel]

I might have to switch from axes then, shame it's the only weapon type I've used so far

[little trench]

theres a rly good axe is ashlands

so id prolly keep w axes if u invested into it a lot

[ripe bone]

well the jotun bane like....deals damage....

if you're following a certain build you just kinda cope with....like for example spears being shit against bonemass.

[bold parcel]

I guess my first mistlands upgrade should be the cape? I'm sticking to lowlands.. just pathing through slowly

[ripe bone]

i guess probably, usually, it makes things bearable

[true steeple]

Make a ton of lightfoot mead too

That mead and cape together make you untouchable in most combat situations

[bold parcel]

Yeah I got started on that already, you mentioned that yesterday.

And lingering mead for when I'm mining out giants

[last osprey]

Bow dps may be higher, but crossbows have much lower stam consumption - and only to reload - so they're ideal for kiting too. And at higher skill levels the lower reload speed lets them catch up in dps at least a little.

Bows also have the advantage of elemental (mainly frost) arrows (and extra non-physical damage on post-swamp bows) so they're ideal for enemies that resist pierce.

[bold parcel]

Thank you!

Do you guys rotate your sap extractors? Two of the root systems near my farm have run dry 😄

[true steeple]

The roots constantly regenerate, even with an extractor on them. It's best to just leave one extractor on each root.

[bold parcel]

Okie dokie

So roughly every 7 mins I'll get some sap, with 2, every 3.5 mins..
Don't seem to need too much anyways

[ebon marsh]

Does anyone have a reliable way of gathering mushrooms? My current strategies are running around black forest and meadows buttnaked with ratatosk and gathering all the forageables or doing a sweep through mushroom places ive already logged but its not really cutting it with the amount of mushrooms I need lol

[bold parcel]

Make lots of paths I did

so you can get lots once you regenerate, but exploring will give u more than enough if you pick it all up whilst you are making the map

[ebon marsh]

Hmm yeah paths would speed up the process so I don’t have to keep using the map while I sweep but rn I am averaging between 10-20 per sweep every 2 or so days when they respawn and my mushroom needs are a lot higher than that

[last osprey]

you can mark mushroom spawns with wisp lights or just cultivating the terrain under them (it doesn't destroy their spawns). Same for berry bushes and other respawning resources.

[last osprey]

i got lucky and have a couple mushrooms spawns with 5-6 each around my meadows farm, so i pick up 1-1,5 stacks every time i go there for meat, wood or crops.
Also this:

[tired root]

Heh, fellow map marker here, I also use dots with the first letters to tell what is there 😁
Ps. What is cp?

[true steeple]

Copper probably?
I always use a circle marker with Cu to mark it

[last osprey]

copper

[ebon marsh]

Using the element signs is really smart actually 🧠

[tired root]

Ah. I use hammer icon for materials like copper, silver etc.

[true steeple]

It's slightly faster to type with a controller than Co and is the symbol on the periodic table for copper so it still works as a marker for copper

[ebon marsh]

Ag for silver, whatever the sign is for tin

[tired root]

Campfire for dungeons and spawners

Except sunken crypts I use hammer again

[last osprey]

i use the hammer icon for dungeons, fire for spawners, houses for ruins and abandoned buildings and the portal for portals.

[true steeple]

I use a campfire for all dungeons. I built a campfire outside the first burial chamber I entered so it seemed appropriate there, and I used it for all the others I found for consistency

[ebon marsh]

I’ve been using the hammer/anchor sign for dungeons

[last osprey]

one thing to take note of for mapmarking though - the markers on that screenshot weren't done in one run. Mushrooms are incredibly easy to miss, so you'll discover patches in areas you've already mapped pretty regularly if you pay attention.

[ebon marsh]

Honestly I think the swamp merchant with her being a forager and all should have some kind of item that helps with foraging, something that works similar to wishbone but for forageables

[tired root]

I also use house marker for ruins. I usually leave then without name and click cross over after clearing.
House also for dvergr buildings with "dv"

[last osprey]

Being pointed at everything just ruins the exploration aspect of the game. Finding what you need is half the fun.

[bold parcel]

There are mods, to cater the game to your liking btw

[ebon marsh]

I mean you still need to locate her and by that point youve done alot of exploring, I found her post moder in my playthrough

[steep tusk]

Campfire = Forageables
-Meadows: Raspberry
-BF: Blueberry
-Swamp/Mountain: N/A
-Plains: Cloudberry
-Mistlands: YggRoot
-Ashlands: Fiddlehead

Dot = Dungeon
-Meadows: N/A
-BF: Burial Mound
-Swamp: N/A
-Mountain: Cave
-Plains: N/A
-Mistlands: Mines
-Ashlands: Morgen Den

Pick = Mineables
-Meadows: Oak Tree 😄
-BF: Copper
-Swamp: Sunken Crypt
-Mountain: Silver
-Plains: Tar Pit
-Mistlands: Skulls
-Ashlands: Flametal

House = Dwelling
-Meadows: Draugr Village
-BF: Troll Cave
-Swamp: Surtling Fire
-Mountain: N/A
-Plains: Fuling Village
-Mistlands: Dverger Building
-Ashlands: Fortress

Runestone = Where I left the boat

[ebon marsh]

the item could be locked behind a boss and only show forageables youve already picked up, alternatively work like bows where you pick which foreagable in your inventory you want to be on the radar

[true steeple]

Pick?
<- this is hammer_icon

[last osprey]

by that logic biomes after plains no longer need enemies either 😅

[steep tusk]

🤷‍♂️ 😄

I use my system because I never have to type what I am marking. The symbols mean what they mean.

[ebon marsh]

I think we can find a middleground with a forageable wishbone type item where it doesnt sacrifice exploration and provides a convenience to the player

[bold parcel]

I tend to get my foods from the least exploration heavy sources.

mist for example, sure I have to farm jotun puffs, but i only really have to forage for hares

[ebon marsh]

jotun puff mushrooms atleast drop in 3's minimum

[tired root]

It reminds him of the Frostner which is why he said pick

[last osprey]

well yeah, but i'd argue that the last patch already added that with the farming skill. Once you've got a few levels in that it procs quite often, giving you bonus resources and reducing the time and spawns you need to forage.

[ebon marsh]

Or even having more variants of mushrooms, like a large mushroom variant that has a chance of spawning/respawning which drops 3 mushrooms min

[true steeple]

So, similar to what the farming skill does 🎰 🎰 🎰 ?

[ebon marsh]

mushrooms having a chance of sprouting during rain anywhere in the biomes it spawns in but dissapear when it stops raining?

[last osprey]

there are already plenty of mushroom spawns, you just have to look. And turn vegetation detail to low, otherwise it's just masochism 😂

making the mushrooms already there more visible is something i can definitely agree with

[ebon marsh]

Yeah I have it on lowest but its still my biggest hurdle for berserkir mead, serpent stew, wolf skewers... :/

[last osprey]

maybe something that adds a small light effect or sparkle to pickable resources?

[bold parcel]

You can always clear the area with a hoe

[ebon marsh]

that would also work, foragers green greydwarf eye or something

[last osprey]

yeah but i'm not clearing an entire BF continent with a hoe to find mushroom spawns

[true steeple]

Greydwarf shamans have green eyes

[ebon marsh]

are mushrooms more likely in meadows or bf?

[last osprey]

You can use it to mark ones already found, but using the hoe to find mushrooms isn't really practical with the areas you'd need to cover

BF afaict, though meadows forests also have them very commonly - cutting the trees down makes them very easy to find so if you need to farm wood i'd do it there

[ebon marsh]

oh wow mushroom respawns are every 4 hours i just checked, that is ridiculous tbh

every 8 ingame days...

[bold parcel]

you can even build yourself a bunch of paths, if you're so inclined

[last osprey]

you can reduce that to ~1,5 hours with sleep, so i don't see the issue. How many berserkir mead are you chugging? Do we need to stage an intervention?

[ebon marsh]

Ive only jsut unlocked them lol, wolf skewers are whats eating my mushrooms up the most atm lol

I have over 200 yellow mushrooms and half a stack of regular mushrooms

[last osprey]

yeah wolf skewers eat through your supply crazy fast - new suggestion: get to the plains, your problems should be solved then

or just make do with a little less hp and eat wolf jerky instead

mountain is kinda bad for food anyway since everything either needs resources that are a pain to farm in quantity, only lasts 20 minutes or both.

[bold parcel]

I found turnips so late, that I ended up not using my wolf meat until I had like 5 stacks...

[ebon marsh]

Just unlocked lox pie so my mushroom troubles should hopefully be resolved within a few days when the mushrooms respawn 😃

Until I ramp up berserkir mead production that is lol

[frosty frost]

[snow vault]

what does "stagger limit" means ? like if they say that a mob got a stagger limit of 50%

[ebon marsh]

50 of its health in one attack will instantly stagger it

otherwise, building up the stagger bar with consecutive attacks will also stagger aslong as you are able to deal more stagger than the enemy loses per second or however quickly it decays

[last osprey]

25% per second iirc?

[ebon marsh]

Just checked wiki and it’s 20%, close

[fickle oyster]

hi all, I am looking for a mod, that let's say player selects an item to build, and it keeps track a list of the materials that you need.

To explain it better, I am rebuilding my base, and I destroyed everything. So now, I am building my workbench and all of its upgrades. how can I track what materials do I need for all workbench upgrades other than going in the building menu every time? Is there a mod for that?

[true steeple]

[fickle oyster]

thank you 🙂 . I wasn't sure where to ask

[limber panther]

Quick question, can you not put a cauldron on a hearth fire anymore ?

[bold parcel]

You can, i've done it

[limber panther]

Mine used to work when i had it on top of it now it says that it needs a fire even tho its on it

[frail cave]

must not be close enough to the center

[last osprey]

still works, placement is just a little finicky

[green bolt]

yeah, its probably a bit too far out, had that problem after the update, moved it back a little and got it to work

[limber panther]

okay i will try to move it more to the middle, thankss

🥲

[loud linden]

As an alternative, I've never put a cauldron over a hearth. I've always used the hearth for cooking stations and put the cauldron over a campfire.

[frail cave]

yea the center of the cauldron isn't even above the fire here

or at least it doesn't look like it

[limber panther]

it works when i remove the iron cooking station

but then i cant put that on there rip...ill figure something out i guess but at least i know it works, thanks again

[green bolt]

this setup works fine

[supple relic]

I'm about to make my first portal and want a few tips

like placing, requirements (whatever tags are??) and recommendations

[bold parcel]

Use the portal for non-metal (stone), then use carts/boat to bring metal home, or craft on site.

In more hostile areas, keep an untagged portal, and enough materials for a portal

I even keep a backup portal to home called "bk" - it's somewhere near my boat, in a safe biome, in case i lose my main portal & gear

[supple relic]

alright

so i should build a place large enough to host the new portal, in later game i will need to keep it untagged?

is it possible to retag a portal? or can it be left untagged

are tags just signs?, what are they and how do i use them for travel

[true steeple]

You can change the tag of a portal at any time. Tags are used to choose which portals connect where. Portals will only connect to one other portal, and that portal must have the same tag

[supple relic]

alright thanks

[crisp otter]

What are the chances of a boar being 2-star? 1/xxx?

[true steeple]

1%. Randomly spawned boars can only have stars past 800m from the world centre

[crisp otter]

Yeah, I know about the spawn radius. Thanks for the statistics :) Appreciate it.

[bold parcel]

If you're scouting an island / biome, do you sail around it completely first?

[frosty frost]

I tend to do that, its not strictly necessary tho 🙂

[bold parcel]

Whoever gave me the advise to find coastal abandoned mines: genius

[ebon marsh]

Depends on the wind, usually I’ll land then do a lap around the perimeter

for mistlands or plains though sailing around it is recommended

[south echo]

sup is the fenris armor worth it or should i grind for the silver one(for yagluth)

[frosty frost]

Both are good 😄 (tho there is a plains tier heavy armor so use that instead of silver one) if you want to run around and dodge everything go with fenris if you want to tank some stuff go with padded armor (the plains heavy armor) and fire resistance wine 🙂

[steep tusk]

Worth is subjective to the individual 🤷‍♂️

[south echo]

but its possible to beat yagluth with fenris armor + the claw as a nub player?

[steep tusk]

It is possible to beat Yagluth naked.

[frosty frost]

I mean... its possible, but hardly the safest option (not responding to Sev :D)

[south echo]

lol okay thx

[steep tusk]

@south echo (wonder how many times I have said this over the years...) FOOD is the most important stat you have.

[south echo]

which food should i get for yagluth

[steep tusk]

#valheim-chat -> Pinned messages -> Find my food sheet -> Configurations Tab -> Plains

[harsh meteor]

the fenris armor gives you a speed bonus and fire resistance, so it definitely will be useful against him, but you could go for heavy armor + fire resistance mead for more protection over all but but be slower. If you prefer being fast and have confidence in yourself to dodge attacks then definitely go fenris armor, but if you like being slow and tanky and able to take a few shots, go for heavy armor. I beat yagluth in heavy armor in one life (though I died after he died lol)

if you're using claws and you love them you should stick with the fenris armor

[steep tusk]

You are fast enough to dodge in either armor and the damage reduction isn't noticeable given the bulk of his incoming is Fire and you'll resist it either way.

[south echo]

okay thx

[south pebble]

Hello my internet blew up and while that was happening I died on friend's server, after dying the server kicked me and my grave gone and no gravee there. Is there a way to recover my items.

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server

[frosty frost]

The fenris armor is basically a bit more skill dependent than padded armor for Yag 🙂

[harsh meteor]

that is true, most of the damage from yagluth is fire so at the end of the day the armor doesn't matter that much

[south pebble]

Hello my internet blew up and while that was happening I died on friend's server, after dying the server kicked me and my grave gone and no gravee there. Is there a way to recover my items.

[harsh meteor]

but i still feel like the less defense is somewhat noticeable

[frosty frost]

Using devcommands to spawn the items in, only the server host can do that tho or you need to do it on solo world and carry them over

[pastel patio]

Hello, couldn't you help me?
I have a dedicated server mounted on docker and I started playing it without updating it, and the fact is that I don't have Hilda or anything, now I updated it and I wanted to know if now they are going to appear in some unexplored part

[frosty frost]

Yep 🙂 if you have enough of the world unexplored all traders should spawn somewhere in unexplored areas

[ripe bone]

boo

[noble vault]

Might be more of a question for devs - Do ashvine clusters have an effect on one anothers vineberry spawning behaviour?

I've noticed that in this setup, the wall farm spawns lots of vineberries, and the pole farm rarely spawns any. But if I have a pole farm of similar size far away from the walls, they spawn a lot more vineberries. It's as though the spawn behaviour is a regional effect that searches for clusters in the region, then chooses berries to spawn based on number of clusters in the region, as opposed to being a per-cluster spawn rate

I'm noticing that when I enter the region of ashvine, they don't have a particularly automatic sequence of spawning vineberries. Like with most crop growth, they happen 'per crop'. A timer activates, a thing happens. Done. But the behaviour of vineberries reminds me of the stability mechanic used for building. Like how buildings won't instantly de-construct, they will do timed calculation bursts to avoid excessive computation.

Kinda feels like the way it works is, on a timer:

• if ashvine cluster is within region of player, proceed
• get number of ashvine clusters in loaded region, use to set max number of vineberry spawns
• when picked, keep list of timestamps for each vineberry spawn ID
• if a spawn ID has gone x amount of time without being picked, find a cluster within the region and spawn the vineberry there. not entirely random, seems to try to create a distribution among nodes to avoid grouping.

i've noticed that a single 2x2 wall tends not to spawn berries for me. but add another 2x2 on top of it, and i get berries more consistantly

Does the block skill reduce the amount of knockback YOU receive?

[true steeple]

Block skill increases block armor
More block armor reduces received knockback

[pastel patio]

Is this too much for them to no longer appear?

[bold parcel]

Cool.. so trapping double elders is gonna be a thing for blocking, since it levels so darn slowly

[frosty frost]

Oh no, plenty of places for them to spawn 😄 you will get them eventualy

[frosty frost]

You can go to burial chambers with tower shield for example and let few skeletons to hit you constantly 🙂

[noble vault]

My method is to use a graydwarf farm to get a buttload of ancient seeds, then spawn 10+ elders with highest level armour I can get. got block to 60 very quickly

[pastel patio]

oh thank you
Although it may not seem like much, I don't want to start over for such a stupid mistake.

[bold parcel]

jeez, I went with 2

I realized it's probably why my tower shield was so annoying to use vs seekers, either they or I would end up miles away after i block

[noble vault]

knockback can be frustrating

[bold parcel]

Block was my primary mechanic, and yet everything else levels so much quicker.

[noble vault]

If you try out a 10+ elder run you will quickly feel better about block levelling lol

Try slowly increasing the number of elders because they can overwhelm you

[true steeple]

Their double claw attacks have 150 knockback but the rest only have 20 or 40

[bold parcel]

The axe is really slow too, i think with both of those it didn't help

[true steeple]

1h axes aren’t great in combat

[frosty frost]

They are ok 😄 tho there is certainly better stuff for it, not gonna argue about that

[true steeple]

The primary is good, but the only positive point of the secondary attack is the turnspeed

[bold parcel]

I think i've been playing the game on hardmode.. axe and tower shield

Crawl movespeed lol

[true steeple]

Maces work well with tower shields because of high stagger on the secondary

[bold parcel]

The knockback from the tower shield is a lot though

But again.. it could be the fact I had 30 block

[true steeple]

It’s supposed to be a lot. Tower shields have significantly higher block force so they can push enemies away

[bold parcel]

Is it to control the fight a bit better?

[true steeple]

Control your enemies, split groups, whatever knockback is useful for in the situation
Mistlands is a great opportunity for you to try something new as there isn’t a mistlands-tier tower shield

[mellow lodge]

@bold parcel is the only person i've seen be 100% tower shield. my hats off to you

[bold parcel]

Axes too. Really not a great combo indeed

[mellow lodge]

lol yeah. you're handicapping yourself left and right

i did make a flametal tower shield recently however, and it's on my todo list to test it out

[bold parcel]

Not really.. half the time i pop bonemass and put my shield away

[mellow lodge]

that's still handicapping yourself if half the time you're not even using the shield

it's just taking up space at that point

[bold parcel]

it definitely made seekers really annoying.

I also found tower shields useless 1v1

[mellow lodge]

you mean pvp? is that even a thing? that's silly

[bold parcel]

nah, just against a single fuling for instance, you'd be so slow they would run away after attacking you

[mellow lodge]

so, when is the tower shield good for you? all i'm seeing is downsides

[bold parcel]

Exactly

but hey I'm gonna stick with it

[turbid maple]

towers offer massive defense but parry inability, and extreme movespeed penalties

[wheat sedge]

why cant i put an chest in there?

[mellow lodge]

blocked by other objects

[wheat sedge]

by what objects?

[mellow lodge]

i'm guessing the wood floor.

do you have wood floor on top of stone? why not try without that wood floor piece?

but basically, as you know, you can't put anything everywhere. sometimes it's blocked. so something is blocking it. the floor on the bottom or top

you need more space

[wheat sedge]

it doesn't make sense, why it didn't block in the layer above it?

[mellow lodge]

the layer above it isn't the same. why does anything work? 🤷 the ones above it don't have a floor piece + stone floor, right?

i'm guessing the dimensions are different

[wheat sedge]

you are a genious

[mellow lodge]

what ended up working?

[glad mica]

Hey yall! Maybe someone can help me with this question....

When you die, do you lose levels or just EXP progress in a level?
Lets say I am 23 farming with 50% exp in it. If I die, does my level go down or % ?

Thank you.

[mellow lodge]

you lose 10% of your skill levels

sorry, 5%

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Death#:~:text=Upon death%2C the player will,experience gained in each skill.

of course, when you die, you also get the "No Skill Drain" buff for a period of time, so that helps

[glad mica]

Thanks. Yea I saw it, but they talk about skills and experience interchangeably, so I wasnt sure.

[sharp lark]

found a 2 star wolf and i see the yellow hearts

do i need to be in the same area to tame it or can i leave the area

[thorn spire]

stay

taming will stop if you leave.

[sharp lark]

how long does it take to fully tame?

[mellow lodge]

30 minutes

[mellow lodge]

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

[sharp lark]

ty

[sharp lark]

also, once i tame the wolf, can other players command it or is just me

[thorn spire]

hmm, good question. I think it will follow any player.

[crude shore]

yes, it will follow any player

[cosmic cedar]

Hello, I have a question about farms

Is it possible to get seeds from collecting crops or do I have to go out everytime after the harvest to look for seeds?

[next beacon]

once you have the proper crops like carrots and turnips (aka no seeds but the vegetable) and holds the cultivator it should unlock the hability to plant those crops for seed plants

[cosmic cedar]

ok ty

[bold parcel]

I think next playthrough, I'm going to up the gather rate, and mod out wind

[obsidian zinc]

How do i use kvaster the broom

[true steeple]

You can’t, when killed it’s just a trophy

[bold parcel]

Do you guys use shield cores at your main base?

[chilly shadow]

You could i suppose, only place it seems somewhat important is the ashlands though imo
