[subtle parrot]

You cook with them

[stoic trench]

Doubt we’ll ever hatch Volture eggs, not sure why would we want to 👀

[quasi comet]

we flew into this world, we can fly out!

[subtle parrot]

That would be, presumably by another unfallen valk

[tired root]

But, but... Flying mounts!!

[candid lynx]

damn no flying mounts

[cold crater]

sorry for the late response
but what kind of pickables, are they bushes or smth like mushrooms

[tired root]

Yeah, I just replies with a joke in mind as many have requested flying mounts in this game.

[frosty frost]

Smoke puffs (shrooms) and fiddleheads (fern)

[cold crater]

alright ty

[placid urchin]

is there any mod or something that allows you to chat to players like /s but without having to use it ?

[drowsy crane]

#mods-discussion will be a better place to ask 👍

[placid urchin]

right my bad

[drowsy crane]

No worries

[foggy pecan]

Any help would be great. I'm on a dedicated server that a friend has sorted for us and quite often when we enter new areas it doesn't load in completely, most of the time its just open areas with nothing, no trees or rocks. Sometimes it will eventually catch up but with a lot of the dungeons caves etc they just don't show. Any help would be great as we've been struggling to figure it

[pliant briar]

should i craft any melee weapon for moder or do i just completely focus on bow combat?

[delicate condor]

is there ever even normal landmass I can explore in the mistlands?
or do I need to swim or have the boat around all the time? lol

[frosty frost]

There is 🙂

[frosty frost]

Melle will be usefull, but not frostner

[delicate condor]

personally, she takes big hits from the gorund, it'll be her weak spot
you can easily try to get beneath her while she's on ground and she'll be barely able to hit you properly

I chunked her hp away with a silver knife

[delicate condor]

also is there a difference between landmass covered in mist and landmass that is not?
is the one covered in mist "better"? in terms of materials maybe?

[gilded ridge]

you need sealbreaker just for open the queen citadel and 3 soilder trophy?

[frosty frost]

She is there when you open it

[gilded ridge]

owh

[winged solstice]

no. the mist free one is just mist free, which is a really nice thing

[delicate condor]

great!

[steep tusk]

Who is Melle? 😏😁😋

[frosty frost]

Brother of Melee ofcourse 😄

[delicate condor]

how can I destroy this black marble for the taking?

[true steeple]

Use a weapon, or a hammer and stonecutter

[delicate condor]

iron pickaxe is good enough or?

[true steeple]

I think a weapon will be faster than a pickaxe

It will take a while though

[delicate condor]

thank you;
how do I start getting weapons and armors and stuff in the mistlands? dont remmeber since my last playthrough

[true steeple]

You need to find some infested mines and steal from the dvergr

[delicate condor]

if I anger nearby dvergr, will get away and come back reset their hostility?
or will they rememeber until killed?

[gilded ridge]

food combo for queen raid?

[tired root]

They are angry until they're dead.

[delicate condor]

damn

[pliant briar]

how are im suposed to kill the stone golem? like he attacks from like 10 meters so i cant hit him and he attacks every like 3 secods so its not enough to attack him by that time, and the bow is just useless

[tired root]

Parrying them is possible. Iron mace is good option against them.

[pliant briar]

i used iron mace but its too slow

[tired root]

When you parry their faster attack it leaves them for longer time staggered.

[pliant briar]

waht do i use for parry?

i only have the tower shield

and its the bone one

[winged solstice]

they can keep respawning as angry too, so make sure to mark that tower as an outlier
🔪

[tired root]

Round shield or buckler are used for parrying.

You should get Banded shield at least.

[pliant briar]

bruh

[lilac coyote]

POI spawns are always one time.

[pliant briar]

will he destroy my base while i teleport?

[tired root]

While you are not in same area, no.

[delicate condor]

omg lol

[winged solstice]

whar? i remember coming across an old tower i genocided and they was a new batch

[delicate condor]

are there alternatives? to steal from the dvergr or make them angry?

[tired root]

If you have enough iron you could even upgrade the Banded shield to quality 3, it doesn't cost too much and is still much better than bone shield.

[pliant briar]

i have 25 i think

[frosty frost]

Destroy ward with cart and you can destroy everything else

[lilac coyote]

Could just be a zone spawn.

[delicate condor]

cart?

[pliant briar]

so ill go craft it

[tired root]

20 is needed for fully upgraded if I recall correctly.

[frosty frost]

Yep, build cart and smash it into the ward, that will not make them angry

[winged solstice]

and if they're in the promixity of the tower they're mad?

[delicate condor]

once the ward is gone if I destroy the crate they won't get mad?

[lilac coyote]

I've no idea where that is coming from, no.

[frosty frost]

Yep, they will get angry only if something within wards protection is dmged, if there is no ward, they will not get angry 🙂

[delicate condor]

ahah nice!

[winged solstice]

guess when the time comes i'll pay attention 🤷‍♂️

[marble roost]

Still be careful not to hit the dvergr themselves, that’ll get them mad too

[tired root]

If you are not familiar with parrying, you could try it first against some easier mobs like greylings. Parry happens when you time your block just before the hit connects, which creates a huge "clang" noise and staggers the enemy, leaving it vulnerable against your hits (they take double damage while staggered).

When you get that timing right, then you could try against the Golem, Bonemass power is really useful for that if needed.

[pliant briar]

bruh i played grounded for so long that i think ill be a master in it

its exactly the same as in grounded

[marble roost]

Ya pretty much

[tired root]

Then you should have no problems. 🙂

[marble roost]

Only thing to note though is that parrying is kinda useless against bosses (bosses can’t be staggered)

[real bear]

yeah, i just dark souls my way thru the bosses lmao

[pliant briar]

or maybe do i crfat the one from silver?

[marble roost]

Might be a good bet if you’re at that point yeah

[delicate condor]

what if I hit terrain inside a dvergr area?
will they get mad?

[frosty frost]

I am not sure, maybe, but again, cart solves it 🙂

[real bear]

i just think anything in the ward

[delicate condor]

this outpost is sealed off by terrain, if I pickaxe it will they get mad at me?

[real bear]

maybe?

[tired root]

If you have silver then you should craft silver shield as it's better than banded shield.

[delicate condor]

what about dvergr lanterns? can I pick them up or they get mad too? lol

[marble roost]

Could always try and find out for youself (:

[frosty frost]

You can pick those

[marble roost]

General rule though just play it safe if you don't want to fight some little fellas with pretty boosted damage numbers

[pliant briar]

why does he gets staggered for only like half a second? do i need to do it better or smth?

[marble roost]

Golem stagger is pretty short. Works best on other enemies

I do believe one of golems attacks staggers it for much longer than the other ones though

[tired root]

The attack with longer wind up has shorter stagger time but faster attack has much longer stagger.

[pliant briar]

got him already

[marble roost]

I think my scariest golem encounter was trying to take on two of them while in half swamp half black forest gear on a permadeath run without frost resist. Shit was intense, but luckily there was little interference from drakes

[tired root]

It's quite dangerous if you stand near an edge since the knockback can knock you down to your death lol.

Last evening I encountered 3 golems very nearby in my current challenge run (bows only), I was like nope, not enough arrows lol.

[marble roost]

lmao

Yea it sucks getting the perfect parry off and still getting yeeted off a mountain

Also that's an interesting challenge, I'm doing the inverse lol: No bows

[tired root]

Nice. I started this bows only permadeath challenge earlier this week and I'm currently still swamp/mountain phase, Bonemass is next boss. I went to look out for obsidian and freeze glands for arrows and found some good frost caves and now I'm rocking with full Fenris set.

I believe I didn't use any bows in my Hard preset world.

[marble roost]

Sounds like you're doing good

I love doing challenge runs. I took a long break from Valheim but just came back for a pretty nasty challenge run that I'm excited about

[tired root]

Quite well, Bonemass location is nearby in the first swamp I went and I've found all traders: Haldor was in starter island, Bog Witch in second swamp in same island as the mountain and the first swamp and Hildir location is on the other side of the same mountain. 5 frost caves later I have enough hair for fully upgraded Fenris set.

Huntsman bow is still so good.

[marble roost]

I love the sneak tactics on huntsman bow, lowkey best bow in the game

And no one ever makes it 😭

[agile rapids]

Is it viable/possible to get fenris armor before bronze

[tired root]

Very underrated one, and it is not even inaccurate like Finewood sometimes is.

[tired root]

It is, but very hard likely.

[marble roost]

Not really worth it no, but possible yea

You can use campfires to survive in the mountains, but still gotta find an ice cave and fight very strong mobs in there. Especially if you want a full fenris set

A lot of people do skip bonemass though and go straight to mountain, myself included (partially because I don't want to get hunted by wolves)

[tired root]

Good thing in bow challenge is that I don't need that much metals for gear, so bronze age was quicker and after 2 good crypts I had enough iron for fully upgraded bow, helmet and pickaxe.

But I need to chop much more wood at least tho.

[marble roost]

Skipping a lot of the bronze stuff feels so good

I usually just make axe, buckler, and cultivator

and then the buildable stuff

[tired root]

Yeah, same for those plus I like usually craft mace and spear/atgeir depending which I am using with my current character.

Sometimes helmet too if I have no luck with finding Trolls.

[tough hare]

They will.

[true steeple]

I always make it and skip draugr fang

[native parcel]

is there anyway to get tamed wolves to stop howling every 10 seconds? i trapped some from "you are being hunted raid" at my main base and now im thinking about murdering them all 😅

[subtle parrot]

Can you even tame raid spawns?

[native parcel]

uhh well they showed up and then stayed when the event was over shrug

[tired root]

Afaik event spawned mobs cannot be tamed as they always stay alerted.

[native parcel]

ive had the same thing happen when the drakes come down from the mountain. if i dont kill them all they stay flying around killing stuff in the black forest until i do kill them ha

i play with valheim plus mod, so that might be why? 0 idea. but the og question still stands. can i get them to stop howling every 10 seconds? lol

[subtle parrot]

No i don't think so, you'd have to kill them to make them stop

[native parcel]

womp womp :/ well that really sucks lol. i know back in the day they made a change so boars would stop freaking out over fire....maybe time to suggest to lower the frequency when tamed? ha

[tired root]

Wolves don't howl when they are tamed, except the cubs.

[native parcel]

oh awesome!!! that makes sense since i got like 5 cubs right now. thank you so much for the info!

[sudden cedar]

does dvgr ever loose agro if i quit there place and back after some time

[true steeple]

The only way to make them lose aggro is to kill them

[sudden cedar]

omg thanks😩

[sudden dock]

How do i fix this problem? me and my brother trying to connect but we can't...

[lilac coyote]

Depends on what the issue is. Steam? Crossplay? VPN? Firewall? Wireless?

[delicate condor]

is there a way for the whisp to dissipate more mist?
cause even with it equipped I still cant see anything............

[true steeple]

No, there are no upgrades to the wisplight.
If you could see everything, what would be the point of the mist?

[delicate condor]

to not enter before you get the whisp?

[stoic trench]

That’s the point though, the mist is a deterrent from entering without the wisp 😉

But you can make wisp torches to clear mist in an area

[subtle parrot]

You'll be able to build a new placeable torch that can help, you can make paths with them to see through the mist

[delicate condor]

yeah no I understand, im just saying I was expecting it to actually better dissipate the mists or have a wider radius of visibility while it's equipped

[stoic trench]

Gotcha gotcha, yeah that seems to be a common stance 🤔 I always advise not moving too fast, let your wisp keep pace with you.

[sudden dock]

So anything can be faulty?

[stoic trench]

Think he’s saying there’s alot of things that could cause your problem. I think he’s asking for more details 🤔

[sudden dock]

how could i know where is the problem... im new to valheim...

[subtle parrot]

Welp, check your firewall for possible blocking, check if you need crossplay, if you're using a vpn turn it off and see if that helps, if you're on wireless instead of proper internet or wifi that could be too slow

[fathom lotus]

do i need a special tool i get from the boss of Plains for that?

[stoic trench]

Nope, just terraform and drain the pit 👀

[delicate condor]

what's the best stamina food in mistlands?
no hp or eitr, just full stamina like bread

[trail anvil]

I lost all my gear can anybody help me with some gear 🥹

[sleek herald]

I think salad is....the only one? Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong

[sleek herald]

What'd ya do to it?

[stoic trench]

Fish n’ bread is another stamina food

[lilac coyote]

An attempt was made.

[tired root]

Like TooMuchDogg said, Fish n' bread is another one, also the best stamina food in Mistlands, but it can be tedious to get since you need to fish anglerfish for it.

3rd stamina food is mushroom omelette, which grant stats between salad and fish n' bread. Salad is the easiest to make from those 3 stamina foods.

[delicate condor]

specifically anglerfish?

[tired root]

Exactly. They are found around Mistlands waters.

[delicate condor]

good grief.......................................

[tired root]

It's not that bad when you get a hang on the fishing mechanic. But it can be bit tedious like I said.

[stoic trench]

Definitely one of the more complex pieces of food to obtain haha

[craggy pewter]

hey yall i got a question

how can we spawn ashwood?

like what is it called in f5

[tired root]

I think it was blackwood.

[craggy pewter]

lifesavor mate thx alot

[tired root]

No problem. 👍

[pliant briar]

how do i get rocks on top of mountain without an inventory?

[subtle parrot]

Use a cart

[frosty frost]

Portal?

[pliant briar]

no, i forgot to delete my spawnpoint in a small hut on top of a mountain and im too far away from portal

and i cant break the bed cuz its to low for fists attack

and no rocks for hammer

thats what i have + some more wood from destroying walls

[short cosmos]

Salad because of how easy it is to make even if it's a little bit worse in stats compared to the other main stamina foods. The difference in stamina between the foods is not a big amount for the material & time cost required.

[frosty frost]

The omelette is also not that costly but salad is indeed the best cost-wise since you get 3 per craft iirc 🙂

[delicate condor]

damn I completely forgot about eggs after killing yagluth

[frosty frost]

Same for me on this run XD have yet to either go to the sealed tower or buy from haldor

[steep tusk]

Get Eggs before killing Yagluth 🙂

[pliant briar]

nvm i got rocks from my nearby silver "mine"

[compact heath]

I like the omlette but if you farm chickens normally it does take a bit to get enough eggs, I've had an issue where they didnt eat for some time yesterday too, never happened to me (feeding barley and had 3 stacks in a small area)

[frosty frost]

Never really had that issue. 🤔 But yeah, you have to get decent amount of chickens before you can make them in large quantities. 🙂 (That is if you are not making one of those automatic thingamajigs)

[solar glade]

is there a trick to this? been here for 10min with nothing happening

[frosty frost]

do you have it turned around the right way?

[solar glade]

Its facing the door in the pulling direction

[true steeple]

Try breaking the walls

[solar glade]

walls same thing

[frosty frost]

Then it should be correct, if it has fuel just pull it into the door and it will start punching

[solar glade]

doesnt show any dmg, filled 3 times thought it just took a while

[frail cave]

are you aligned to the door properly?

[true steeple]

Why troll capes?

[solar glade]

its blue

[drifting trail]

Would anyone be willing to help me get more Fulling Totems? I need 2 more. Pacific time.

[stoic trench]

You can always spawn them in 🙂

[drifting trail]

That takes all the fun out of the adventure. Im over here raw-dogging the Valheim experience.

[frosty frost]

then go find more villages 🙂

[short cosmos]

facing the wrong way

[solar glade]

Walls same thing, Only mod is BepinEx

[frosty frost]

Turn it off anyway, mods do all sorts of weird stuff

[solar glade]

cant server runs it

thirdparty host

[frosty frost]

I would almost bet its whats causing this mess tho

[livid badge]

can u kick someone out of server just in case they fck around?

[drifting trail]

I can fine villages no problem. Surviving them is the problem.

[frosty frost]

Then what makes you think you can survive the boss? 🙂

[short cosmos]

use huntsman bow and get sneak attacks on the goblins it will either 1 or 2 shot them depending on bow skill, huntsman bow has the least amount of noise radius so its the best for this type of play style

[frosty frost]

Sniping with draugr fang works too but you will attract a bit more enemies

[drifting trail]

I probably will need help with that too. 🥲🙃

[solar glade]

Doubt bepinex wouldnt have a way to interfere with it

[true steeple]

Use a bow to lure out a small group, or walk close but not too close

[woeful bay]

are the feasts displayable?

[true steeple]

All food can be placed with the serving tray. Feasts must be placed before they can be consumed.

[little trench]

@solar glade if you want, you can just build urself in, just like in fortnite. i personally find it easier

and then to access the tower inside, you dig underneath

[short cosmos]

^^

[compact heath]

Imo the boss is definitely harder than most villages, also depends on what weapons you use of course for either.

I used an easy strategy for villages, and killed the boss with 4 others so it was not bad at all like that even though my weapon setup was far from perfect for that boss in the curent run

[regal ocean]

@steep tusk you said that you normally skip iron armor right?

[steep tusk]

Aye.

[compact heath]

I do too nowadays, but I didn't when I was new and felt weak haha. Root armour is freakin awesome though

I'm also trying to learn to survive in 6th biome with light armour, going okay haha.

[icy brook]

whats the next bow after the crude bow?

[short cosmos]

finewood bow

[jolly rock]

will the bog witch appear in explored swamps

[stoic trench]

She will not

[regal ocean]

What do I need for root armor? I have a bunch of roots but can’t craft the armor

[compact heath]

have you got the wood from the swamp trees yet? Needs that and leather scraps / deer hide. Also its made at a workbench not forge

[regal ocean]

Ahhhh ok I see now. I was looking in forge

[jolly rock]

does it have to be like.... a big enough swamp or a teeny swamp might have her

[compact heath]

can be in small swamps

has to be big enough for the camp though haha, but i have had her in swamps with no crypt for instance

[jolly rock]

ours is in one of the most concerning spots ive ever seen

[drowsy crane]

Don't mind that, that's just Jim

[cosmic grotto]

I somehow got 2 swamp keys, I didn't have 2 before and I know that

[tired root]

Was there someone with you fighting Elder?

[desert monolith]

Did you drop one, and then reload your character. That’s the most likely cause

[cosmic grotto]

It's been literally hours since my group fought the elder and they all have their swamp keys

[hard falcon]

hey guys, am i missing something? for some reason the only pickaxe i can craft is the antler pickaxe, going by wiki i have everything to make bronze

[true steeple]

Could you show your inventory?

[hard falcon]

its not appearing in the forge

[tired root]

You have core wood?

[hard falcon]

ohhh

[true steeple]

Core wood is dropped by pine trees

[hard falcon]

nope lmao i didnt pick up on that part

[tired root]

Pine trees are found in black forest.

[hard falcon]

ty ty lol

[tired root]

Np 👍

[umbral sandal]

guys should i replay valheim but solo this time cuz i beat the game last week with my friend

now im bored and i dont have anything to do

[tired root]

Why not? If you feel like it then go ahead. 👍

You could try something different like different weapon types or make some challenges.

[umbral sandal]

should i mess around with the world modifiers or just leave it as it is

idk how it will be like playing the game solo

[umbral sandal]

will definitely try that 🙂

[tired root]

You can adjust world modifiers if you feel like, there is nothing wrong with that.

[umbral sandal]

which setting would you recommend that i adjust for solo playthrough

[tired root]

Challenging yourself sometimes can be fun. I'm currently playing a "deathless bow challenge" world, where I can only use bows for a weapon and try not to die.

[umbral sandal]

dangg how much have u progressed so far

[tired root]

It's solely for you to decide. Look up for the options there. 👍

[tired root]

I started last week (maybe Wed/Thu?), currently in swamp/mountain/plains phase. Bonemass as my next boss, but scouted for mountain and plains for materials. Now going on with fenris armor, have found both Moder and Yagluth altar locations too (very lucky the Yagluth one).

Pros: need less metals for gear. Cons: need a lot more wood than before lol.

[onyx scaffold]

in the meadow`s Glade bell666 need help

[candid lynx]

what does the yellow dmg numbers in the weapon stat mean

[true steeple]

That's the damage you actually deal, determined by skill level.
The hit chooses a value randomly between those numbers

[candid lynx]

ohhh thought it was related to dmg done to enemies weak to it or something\

[hard falcon]

is anyone able to help me in #mods-issues ?

[lilac coyote]

The people in that channel.

[hard falcon]

its been 5hr since the last msg in there, there is no people in that chat

[lilac coyote]

Ok, you'll have to wait then I guess.

[hard falcon]

😐

[lilac coyote]

What's that for?

[hard falcon]

whats what for

[lilac coyote]

The emoji.

[hard falcon]

I have no idea Derek.

[lilac coyote]

Then why type it?

[hard falcon]

Like I said, I have no idea Derek.

[lilac coyote]

Weird. Moving on.

[hard falcon]

@lilac coyote its ok derek I dont need your help

[agile rapids]

❓

[cedar lodge]

what happened? seems valheim-help moved to general lately

[haughty pier]

should i stay in the mountains at night to get the wolf trophy easier?

[cedar lodge]

mm, would'nt reccomend that, very risky, and regular wolves have the same thropy drop rate as the starred ones

[true steeple]

You can make a silver or fenris armor chest piece for frost protection

[true steeple]

Wolves spawn more frequently at night too

[runic wind]

question everyone if i put mod on valheim will it auto download it as well?, or is it client sided?

[haughty pier]

i have fenris but isnt it more defense?

[frosty frost]

Probably best to ask in #mods-discussion 🙂

[cedar lodge]

true, imo not worth the risk, agree with fenris set solution though, usually a single frost cave is enough for the frost-resisting chest piece

[true steeple]

All capes (except one in a later biome) have the same defense

[haughty pier]

oh nvm so prolly just moder now?

[runic wind]

ok thx

[true steeple]

Usually a single cave? The most one cave has given me is 14

[haughty pier]

how? its so easy to get alot

[cedar lodge]

not for the whole set, but if we are talking initial frost protection, chestpiece level 1 will be enough

[true steeple]

That costs 20 hair

[true steeple]

Terrible luck

[haughty pier]

oh but so like i shouldnt have full fenris armor? or?

[true steeple]

From what I've seen, I always find below-average frost caves

[cedar lodge]

yeh right, i got confused with 5 root needed for the other awesome one (root set), right maybe 2 or 3 caves, my most lucky one was 23 though, but a one- time- lucky shot

got in the "1 abomination and you get poison resist forever" and mixed up memories

[haughty pier]

what arrows shouldi use for moder? fire?

[true steeple]

Obsidian

[cedar lodge]

TWO abominations, sry i don't caft that stuff long time

[cedar lodge]

right, i used to go for fire because of Moder weakness, but sheer pierce damage overcomes that, needle even better if you dare to do a bit of early plain scouting (not so deadly with a root chestpiece and being careful)

[real bear]

what should i prep for the queen?

like what wep should i use, food, and other stuff

[true steeple]

Are you going to mainly use magic or physical weapons?

[real bear]

physical right now

[true steeple]

Mistwalker is a good choice. Bring a feather cape, lightfoot mead and tonic of ratatosk to get around, and poison resistance mead. You will want to use either bonemass or eikthyr power.

Any combination of health and stamina food made with mistlands ingredients, as long as you aren't using three of the same stat, will be good.

[real bear]

alright

im already using mistwalker so i guess thats good

is magic good or no? i have debated using it

looks kinda fun

[willow raft]

Some bile bombs for the adds.

[willow raft]

It is quite good.
With the 4 staffs available to you in mistlands you have quite the toolbox at your disposal.
Staff of embers, good AoE damage and knockback.
Staff of frost, Good single target and the slow is nice (not easy to aim in my opinion and mostly use embers because of that)
Staff of protection, the bubble lets you parry anything and stagger it (except some specific mobs and bosses), you won't take any damage from any source as long as the bubble has 1 hp.
Dead raiser, skeletons that are a good source of distraction so you can either do some damage while the mobs are focused on the skeletons or you can get away if it becomes too dicey.

You can even bubble your skeletons so they live longer.

It only gets better in the ashlands with the staff of the wild and such.

[true steeple]

Don't focus on skeletons too much though, you need eitr to defend yourself

[cedar lodge]

trying this right now, the problem is that you start over with skills from zero, i was almost useless at beginning, now i'm at 50 elemental and 15 blood, it's starting to be a thing, still i would'nt get on a queen fight for now (i'm also not so good at managing the type of fight and need to get better myself, besides skill levels)

[willow raft]

The skeletons are a distraction and can certainly be used to defend oneself, run away, cast one and keep on running the mobs will target the skeleton and you can get away.

[little trench]

magic is the most OP shit in the game

[willow raft]

The skills on 0 feel to be on par with where you would be with other weapons once you hit mistlands in my opinion.

Eating 2 eitr and 1 stamina food and having the bubble up constantly reduces the danger significantly, you can run for longer and jump more to reposition oneself or get away from mobs.
The mage can't tank very well but can be very mobile since you don't need any stamina for fighting.

[real bear]

boring. lmao, i love just darksouling my way thru games like this, i dont like playing ranged with it that much

[true steeple]

You could try a combination of magic and melee

[real bear]

yeah, possibly

[true steeple]

The magic shield is very useful in melee combat because you take 0 damage from any hit and can therefore parry any blockable attack

[cedar lodge]

yup, i'm slowly learning all of this, at start i was helpless, also trying some mixed armor (example eitr robes and legs, but with fenris hood sacrificind 20% regen for more speed, still unsure)

[little trench]

ya id recommend sticking to melee

magic is basically u kill everything from range with 0 risk

if u want tho, u can kinda play "hybrid" where u use only protection bubble and all offensive actions come from melee

[willow raft]

I went full mage so that I get my Eitr back quicker.
I also always have some potions with me, stamina, health and eitr.

[cedar lodge]

yeh, full eitr set is probably better, unfortunately not this badass looking 😎 #screenshots message

[willow raft]

True.

[sudden cedar]

will queen spawn as soon as i open the dvergr vault?

[echo sparrow]

more or less--she already spawned actually, unique among the other bosses in that regard

[sudden cedar]

tahnks

[cedar lodge]

yeh, still have to fight it, but i read you just have to make a sealbraker once, then just sacrificing trophys if you want a rematch, right?

[uncut mango]

can someone give me a definitive what does beating each boss unlock mob-wise quick rundown? I dont need each, im just confused on one aspect

beating dear, unlocks next level raids
beating tree unlocks next level raids
beating sludge unlocks next level raids

DO THEY ALSO,
deer - nothing
tree - harder enemies spawn in meadows
sludge - harder enemies spawn in meadows
etc like skeles and brutes/dwarves? is there a mod to stop this aspect of it?

[cedar lodge]

correct you basically got it, each boss defeat unlocks next boss' biome raids and current-boss night spawns even in meadows.
You can limit or even shut raids with world modifiers, but can do nothing for added nightime spawns

[uncut mango]

current boss as in ill get skeles and icky bois after sludge? and wolves after the next one? etc

i thought i heard of a mod to stop this, do you know it? i dont expect lol just asking

nvm i found it with the power of google thank you

[tough hare]

You mean something like this:

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Events#List_of_events

[uncut mango]

yes but it didnt confirm the whole night time spawn monsters thing specifically

[cedar lodge]

https://www.reddit.com/r/valheim/comments/1af1rv0/playerbased_raids_and_zone_night_spawns/?rdt=53275

zero knowledge about modding, i dont use em, but the top response image sums up night spawns unlocks well

[dull nymph]

do mobs of biomes you have beaten spawn at night around you?

i just saw a fuling in the middle of a meadow

there is no plain biomes for km around, no land connection

[uncut mango]

it answered all my questions thank you vincitore, i dont like mods but i want an evergreen immersive building server and am so sick of a power gamer ruining it

[cedar lodge]

yup, correct, works like starred wolves in mountains despawning at dawn, exception for draugrs after bonemass, they can also spawn in meadows during daytime if it's foggy weather

[shell tinsel]

Why do my friend and I have a ping of 160 in the shared world, and if each of us logs on to another server, there is a ping of 50?

[tired root]

Either that or finding another Queen boss arena.

[cedar lodge]

so sealbreaker won't "vanish" after being used, like a swamp key, right?

[tired root]

Yeah, you can just use it again.

[cedar lodge]

clear, thanks

[cold crater]

are swamp cripts the only way to get iron?
or is there any other way to get it like mopdrops for example

[tired root]

Not the only way, but they become more relevant in later biomes.

[cold crater]

can you tell me how to get more in later biomes?
we are already in plains
i just wanna know the options

[tired root]

Oozers can drop iron scrap and scrap iron piles can be found underground in swamps. Also fishing giant herring can grant iron ore.

[cold crater]

and which way would you use to farm iron the fastest if you are in the endgame?

[tired root]

In Mistlands there are mineable sources for iron (and copper). And demolishing some structures with iron cage inside drop smelted iron.

[tired root]

I just mentioned those but you managed to reply before mine.

[cedar lodge]

For big yields it's the only way (before mistlands), there are open field scrap piles in swamp but they're rare and require a wishbone, for smaller yields there's mountain caves reinforced doors, oozers and giant herring fishing-and-praying

[tired root]

Right, also sealed towers have cages that provide iron when demolished.

[cold crater]

and in mistland the fastes way is to demolish stuff like bridges for the iron cages?

[tired root]

Correct, bridges have iron cage inside which drops smelted iron.

[cedar lodge]

Also ancient armour / swords get you a decent amount

[cold crater]

alright thanks guys

[haughty pier]

just killed moder
any tips for plains?

[sleek herald]

Root harnesk.

You get poked.

[haughty pier]

alr is there a specific dmg type thats clearly stronger or weaker?

[sleek herald]

The pierce resistance on the harnesk helps you greatly, the fire weakness can be a problem but you can offset that (jump in the water if you need to)

[real relic]

My archer pal really seemed to shine in the plains, but i don't think that's because of the pierce damage of arrows

[haughty pier]

so pierce good?

[sleek herald]

Good until the boss

[haughty pier]

and before boss?

[sleek herald]

Pretty good, but I don't think there's a plains spear (and no plains bow)

[haughty pier]

isnt there a black metal atgeir?

yeah

[sleek herald]

Yeah I think that's the only pierce weapon

[haughty pier]

ok

[sleek herald]

aw no the mace

Yeah the plains mace ain't good, but it has pierce damage

[haughty pier]

and whats yagluth weak againts

[cedar lodge]

Very good piece of equipment, but you will be a bit way inside plains progression when you'll able to max it

[sleek herald]

He's an undead boi, spirit works

[tough hare]

Spirit damage.

Which means the silver sword and the Frostner are the best weapons to deal with him.

[short cosmos]

Silver sword is the best weapon for Yagluth

[haughty pier]

Alr
So
Atgeir For plains until boss
Root harnesk needed
Silver sword For boss?

[cedar lodge]

Porcupine got mixed blunt/pierce, got me trough Yag, but frostner killed him

[short cosmos]

Honestly yeah that's all u need

If u ever wanna do a sealed tower Atgeir is ur best friend there

[tough hare]

Actually, ooze bombs are.

[short cosmos]

Nah i tried using them as well and Atgeir did way better there

The bombs are better in mistlands vs the || seeker broods ||

[tough hare]

With atgeir you need to enter the rooms the Fuling are in and deal with them with the rotating spin; which will also hit the walls and thus you loose lots of damage if you postion yourself wrong.

With Oozebombs you lure the Fulings to the door, drop one or two ooze bombs there and the DoT does the rest. Smash the door, enter the room and mop up the ones with few health left.

To me that works a lot better as loosing dmg output on hitting walls I'm not wanting to hit.

[short cosmos]

Atgeir don't have mtp so you won't lose dmg even if u hit a wall

[tough hare]

Advantage of ooze bombs is that they work through a door. So you don't have to face a large group.

It's basically the same in the infested mines. Lure the monsters to a wooden wall, drop the ooze bomb (or bile bomb later), lure them again if you hear a noise, drop a 2nd ooze bomb and you can be certain that a large amount of the monsters are dead.

Which weapons are you using?

Bronze sword?

[short cosmos]

Lmao

[tough hare]

Being a little bit more specific will help a lot.

[short cosmos]

fader should not be out regening u guys unless u are barely trying to even damage him

[lapis terrace]

@cedar lodge 😄

[tough hare]

The one casting the trolls, is (s)he also able to use the Staff of the Wild?

[short cosmos]

Ye if they have enough eitr

[tough hare]

If so, use that. Those vines are doing a lot more damage and you won't risk that the trolls target you instead.

[sleek herald]

yeah it took me punching with bare fists to have that effect

[marble roost]

tbh damage type doesn't matter all too much in plains

[haughty pier]

no weaknesses?

[hollow monolith]

does building upgrades increase spawn protection range, or jus build range?

[frosty frost]

Both

[steep tusk]

Both.

[hollow monolith]

thank you both

[marble roost]

There's some pierce resistance and some blunt weakness in plains, but most the main enemies don't care too much about what you use against them. Just don't use pierce against the big fluffy fellas in the biome, and don't use pierce against boss

[late tiger]

I recently had a problem with sounds in the game, I’m just running around exploring the world and at a random moment the sound of mobs walking, etc., will disappear, and the only thing that helps is re-entering the game, only the sound of walking, etc. will disappear, music is present, maybe you know what the problem is ?

[sleek herald]

Interesting

Server or solo? (don't think it matters but you never know)

[late tiger]

I'm playing with a friend, I think it can be considered a server :D

I thought the problem might be in the mods, but my friend doesn’t have these problems.

[steep tusk]

#mods-issues

[opaque barn]

what should I do to just reset the crafting and construction recipes on my character?

[steep tusk]

Make a new character.

[lilac coyote]

Or use devcommands.

[opaque barn]

what code should I use to keep my skills but lose crafting and construction recipes?

[tough hare]

Create a new character, open Devcommands in the console and use "Raiseskill [skill] X" (whereas X is the level you want it to be) to get your skills to the level you have them at the current character.

But without the quotes. 😉

[subtle parrot]

Or brackets

[sullen tide]

why is this red? the pillar below it is green

[marble roost]

I think it's not properly attached. Think you need the slab to rest on the very top of the pole, not inside it.

Not an expert tho

[sullen tide]

thanks,I missed a pillar in between

that plus resting on top did it, thanks

[coral wharf]

Also I've heard that there Is a way to turn off the skill lost through the devcommands console... Can't remember the input from the top of my head tho

[devout pivot]

do ||haldor ||and ||hildir || buy gems at the same price or should i rather sell to one more than the other?

[true steeple]

All merchants give the same prices for selling

[devout pivot]

ok, thanks

[naive latch]

How the hell does one find the Queen Vegvisir

I have searched 6 continents and 25 Mines and no Queen Runestone

[true steeple]

It took me a while last time, just keep searching mines and hope to get lucky 🎰

[naive latch]

💀

Nahh man they rlly need to fix the %rate of finding the Runestone

[stoic trench]

Right there with ya- honestly I’m kinda happy about it though, it’s nice to use my mistlands gear for the mistalnds instead of just the boss fight 😂

[true steeple]

If there is any vegvisir that should be more common, it's Yagluth's

[naive latch]

Me and my boys have been ready to fight her for a week, the only thing stopping us is the Vegvisir

[stoic trench]

Just RNG, keep looking

[naive latch]

This too, both of them need a fix

[short cosmos]

you can always use || valhiem-map.world || if u cannot find her in a mine

[frosty frost]

Nah, queen is not that bad 🙂

[naive latch]

We got rlly lucky and found Yagluth in the 3rd Plains but the Queens is literally unfindable for us

[short cosmos]

neither is Yag

Idk how people cannot find him I always find him pretty easily

[naive latch]

I would have but it's a server and the FTP inaccessible and support keeps responding like a bunch of muppets to each ticket

[short cosmos]

ftp?

[naive latch]

File Transfer Protocol, for the log files

[short cosmos]

is there no way to get the world seed?

[naive latch]

I wanted the .fwl but the server isn't letting me get the log files

[frosty frost]

Type printseeds in console

[short cosmos]

if u press f2 im pretty sure it shows

[frosty frost]

nah, F2 doesent have it

[coral wharf]

On my last world 1st time I entered mistlands I've seen the "special spiky stones" from afar so I went there thinking "boy the fastest I ever found the mine" - that was the queen liar haha

[short cosmos]

ah

[naive latch]

Nope, I even tried using Cheat Engine to decode the bytes

[frosty frost]

Open console, type printseeds 🙂

[naive latch]

I got the seeds for all my local worlds, server world has a dummy seed called "dummy" which made me want to throw hands

[coral wharf]

U can see the world seed in the lobby (before u start Ur world)

[naive latch]

Tried this as well, it gives a dummy value for some rsn

[coral wharf]

After u choose the character - u can see "world name" "modifiers" "seed"

[frosty frost]

Yeah, but doesent work for servers i believe 🙂

[short cosmos]

servers suck lmao

[naive latch]

This is for local worlds

[coral wharf]

Ah yikes mb

[frosty frost]

They can be very nice if you get few friends to play with you 🙂

[naive latch]

Yea, they're asscheeks but we didn't have a stable host that could be online at everyones convenience so we resorted to server since we have 12 ppl

But now the support staff is making me pop an aneurysm into 4 consecutive seizures

[coral wharf]

On the other hand with 12ppl u should be able to search through every pixel of mistlands in the world in a week

[frosty frost]

Are you or the server using any mods maybe?

[naive latch]

Nope, not me at least

[short cosmos]

is there a way u can download the world file and put it in ur local worlds folder?

[naive latch]

That's the FTP server, yes I should be able to but Filezilla isn't letting me access it

[livid badge]

how to remove HUD in valheim?

[naive latch]

It keeps throwing errors because of port mismatches despite using the right port

[coarse flax]

Is there any possible way to change my characters appearance while keeping skill progression?

im the host of the server if that means anything

[true steeple]

You can change your hair with a barber station

[coarse flax]

oooh nice

does that change the beard too? and when do i unlock that

[true steeple]

It can also change the beard, and is unlocked by buying a barber kit from Hildir

[short cosmos]

thats how u get the barber kit?

[coarse flax]

Hildir?

[coral wharf]

The trader with the shirt icon

She sets a camp in meadows

[coarse flax]

sorry im new, i just find the trader randomy do i?

[coral wharf]

Yes, just sail around until u see an icon popping out on Ur screen

She spawns 3000-5100 meters from Ur spawn (according to wiki, and I feel like that's right)
The map is what... 10 000 meters radius (correct me if I'm wrong)
So if Ur desperate - zoom out Ur map measure (eyeball it) 1/3-1/2 distance from Ur spawn to the edge and then start sailing around there in a circle aroun Ur spawn

[coarse flax]

ah thank you

[tired root]

Just want to add that there are some new hair and beard style options from barber station that you cannot choose in main menu when creating a new character.

[desert monolith]

Huh. TIL. Interesting, thanks.

[stoic trench]

Thanks for sharing, I actually didn’t know that! 900 hours in… 🤦

[tired root]

Better later than never @desert monolith @stoic trench

[sturdy crane]

Is there a command for moderators that clears all objects on the ground, by chance? Whether or not its a mod doesn't matter- we are having serious framrate drops because of a few bases that constantly have stuff on the floor due to wildlife (Necks, Boars, etc.) dying to base defenses. It drives us insane 😂

[buoyant peak]

removedrops

[sturdy crane]

Thank you :3

[idle arch]

Good night. One question, is anyone having trouble connecting to multiplayer after today's update?

[buoyant peak]

Considering there hasn't been any update in the first place I'm pretty sure no

[jolly sparrow]

Is there a mod that gets rid of the yellow thingy? I need it to go away so I can make precise placements

[regal ocean]

What’s the point of upgrading the hammer?

[jolly sparrow]

More durability

besides its super cheap

[marble roost]

Without too many spoilers, what are the general spawning rules of the new bog witch? Is it a Haldor/hildir situation where she has a bunch of spawns in swamps around the world and the first one you go to she will appear at and stay forever?

[short cosmos]

yes

[jolly sparrow]

She works like hildir and haldor

same spawns as em

[regal ocean]

Tf am I supposed to do when the wind is in the exact opposite direction of where I need to go

This is fun

[quaint narwhal]

Zig zag or moder power my dude

[compact heath]

also speed one is paddling

speed 2 half sail, speed 3 full sail, 1 works well with no wind is obviously slow but can go 100% against wind

also "zigzag" is called tacking if you want to google i

[marble roost]

Wait (pretty good plan), paddle or zigzag (okay plan), find somewhere else to sail to (pretty good plan), or use Moder power (very good plan, but dependent on progression)

[regal ocean]

Alright thanks guys. Don’t think I’ve unlocked moder power so paddling it is

[marble roost]

If its night you can also sleep. Sleeping changes wind direction

[compact heath]

sleeping to change wind direction only works with a) pocket portal b) a shore nearby of a safe-ish biome

[jolly sparrow]

Doesnt logging do the same thing?

[compact heath]

I believe not because I think weather is tied to the ingame day/time

wind maybe too but I am not 100% sure

[quaint narwhal]

Hey all so I took a long break and came back and thought I was ready for the mistlands seeing how I was rolling through the plains with ease. Had full upgraded black metal weapons and padded armor. Landed on the mistlands and got mobbed by seekers. Should I just re roll a character and re learn the game seeing how it's been a while since I've played? I feel like I'm missing some stuff or like something in the natural progression of the game.

[jolly sparrow]

Its possible I was thinking about status affects then

[compact heath]

that would work for poisoned etc

[regal ocean]

Can my boat float away like this or will it stay?

[compact heath]

Depends on you, 2 suggestions. a) Get help from someone or recover your gear, make a small base nearby biome just outside Mistlands and do small adventures into the mist to learn it, you have the item you unlocked after killing Yagluth I hope haha. b) Start a full new playhrough with a new character which to me is always hella fun, I often set myself new goals like using a new weapon or something c) Find friends / server that are starting Mistlands

[compact heath]

It will stay but monsters might destroy it if you are nearby it and don't watch it carefully

[jolly sparrow]

its stays, dw

[compact heath]

and if the resources drop into deep enough water they can despawn relatively fast

[regal ocean]

Does fire scare every monster?

[jolly sparrow]

I mean, this could happen but in my 300 hours this has never happened other than the time I visited ashlands and they destroyed my drakhar

[compact heath]

If you move away from it quite far and fast it will be fine just leaving it there as the "zone" its in will not be loaded by the game, and therefore no monsters attacking it, and it does not float unless a player is on it

[jolly sparrow]

Not all of them, there are factions in the game. The forest faction is scared by fire

[compact heath]

happened to me in plains and even in black forest and swamp about 4 times or so, over my 2600h

[jolly sparrow]

Then this just means I was somewhat fortunate so far in all my runs LMFAOO

[regal ocean]

I docked in the plains. My first experience was getting 1 shot by a mosquito so this should be interesting

[compact heath]

I also sail A LOT, love it and sometimes explore with a pocket boat

[jolly sparrow]

ah, the deathsquito

The deathsquito is such a nice warm welcome to the plains. I did the mistake of going there in iron armor accidentally my first time

[compact heath]

deathsquitos are harmless... if you are a) a great fisherman and have caught groupers b) have visited the big witch c) enough coins to have bought fragrant bundle from the witch d) got some cloudberries already e) have made a wonderful new mead --- or you can also wear root chest piece

[jolly sparrow]

Also. I have you have a sheild, you can parry deathsquitos. Basically as soon as they get to you just hold block

[regal ocean]

I like the aesthetic of the plains. This is nice

[regal ocean]

😂haven’t done any of those

[jolly sparrow]

Wait till you see the mistlands without the mist

[regal ocean]

Trying to make my way to the witch because I assume she’s next to bone mass

At least I hope so

[jolly sparrow]

She does spawn in spawn. yes

[compact heath]

someone posted a seed where she was next to a bonemass, but I have always found her in non bonemass swamps the 5 times I found her

[jolly sparrow]

same lol

I have 2 worlds where I found her next to hildir or haldor

Like directly next to eachother

[regal ocean]

How do I get tar out of tar lol

[marble roost]

Gotta drain the tar by digging a channel out for it to flow out, or fill the whole with ground using the hoe

Can be kinda finicky

[short cosmos]

nah, plains is still the best looking biome imo

[compact heath]

lol SAME

[compact heath]

No thats Ashlands and DN (from what I have seen from spoilers so far)

[short cosmos]

nahh

[regal ocean]

So does everything in the plains just do insane dmg

[steep tusk]

If you're in Wolf Armor and have good food, no (unless starred enemies).

Once you get Padded they do even less.

[compact heath]

No, like normal fulings non starred are easy, the scariest for me are tar monster Growths especially if there are like 6 of them, also plains did used to be the final biome before the others were added

[regal ocean]

Oh so I should do mountains before plains?

[regal ocean]

Ok that makes sense because I’m gettin my ass kicked

[steep tusk]

As you cannot process any of the metal in the Plains without the Mountain Boss item.... yes.

[regal ocean]

Alright still gotta find witch and fight bone mass so I’ll do that after

[steep tusk]

And as the Swamp resources unlocked Frost Resist Mead, that was the game telling you to go there next. (It could be more apparent, but sadly it is not).

[desert monolith]

yes, it is 100% tied to time/day

i.e. the wind will be in an east direction on the night of day 1 etc.

[regal ocean]

So do you normally just wander upon merchants when exploring? Or does it vary? Haldor was right next to the elder for me, not sure if that’s normal

[desert monolith]

its literally random (within defined procedural rules). So there is no requirement for Elder and Haldor to be next to each other.

The only part is they both spawn in black forrest, but Haldor has to be a certain distance from start, Elder doesnt.

So its just luck/random when you find traders - there are no in game tools or clues to find them without jsut general exploring their possible spawn radius and biome

[regal ocean]

Interesting. Harbor was so close to Elder that I could literally just stay in harbors zone and shoot the bow at elder😂

[desert monolith]

Yeah - that can happen sometimes. Same as the next trader in the next biome with the next boss.... its rare but possible.

[onyx elk]

can any1 help pls?

[sleek herald]

watcha need?

[compact heath]

With what?

[candid lynx]

not sure why but i cant fill this gap with this wall it keeps breaking

it is grounded when i place it also

oh wait nvm it was floating of the walls

[compact heath]

glad you could figure it out

[naive latch]

Just become a Root Harnesk gremlin

That Armor is so insane that it's viable even in Ashlands

[true steeple]

It’s very useful against the boss there

[naive latch]

Reducing 50% of pierce damage makes the armor value of any other Chestplate pretty much useless in front of it

As melee, it makes ranged mobs a breeze and as ranged, it allows you to ignore some melee ones like ticks and seekers

[true steeple]

If you combine it with the serpent scale shield it’s possible to take zero damage from Fader’s spin (a damage number doesn’t appear)

[desert monolith]

and morgans

[naive latch]

Yea it makes the damage 0 if your other Armor is good

Fader deals almost 100% pierce, just need Barley Wine for his Fire damage

[true steeple]

All of his physical damage is pierce except for low blunt damage on the meteors

[naive latch]

And Fire damage

But the Fire damage is also rlly low as long as you don't continue to take it

Unless an Armor piece has >100 Armor it isn't surpassing Root Harnesk ability for Fader

[cold crater]

Is there another armor from the plains than the patted things with iron and threads
Some armor with black metal?
Im kinda searching for a armor that doesn’t let me move with 1/day
with the 10% from the armor and another 10% slowness from the weapon and shield im practically standing still

[willow raft]

No but the Fenris set from the mountains is pretty good and makes you zoom across the map, it also has fire resistance so is quite good against yagluth.
I usually go, troll --> root --> fenris --> eitr weave --> embla / asksvin

[cold crater]

But fenris set has such low armor:(
We already beat yagluth and now moving into mistlands

[steep tusk]

Armor only matters if they actually hit you.

[willow raft]

It has low armor but since you are faster on your feet it lends itself to a hit and run or ranged approach playstyle.
If you are more into tanking and getting in the face of the mobs you'll have to use the padded.

The fenris set with a buckler and dagger and bow as backup is really good in my opinion.
Shoot them with the bow to start and if they get close switch to buckler and dagger and do the leap attack, if that doesn't stagger, let them take a swing, parry it to stagger and stab away.

[compact heath]

Fenris in Mistlands needs some skill, thats what I am doing right now, for a super new player probably need a bit higher armour rating imho

overall I have never met a game where all the things are so viable in different situation, on default Valheim settings SOOOO MANY things just work if you know how to make them work, Iron Gate has done amazingly achieving this @ Smiffe 🙂

[cold crater]

Alright thanks
-# and yes this game is very balanced

[naive latch]

I recommend just using RootHarnesk+PaddedHelmet+MaxedCape with the leggings being your choice

The Harnesk only gives -2% movement speed, but it makes you weak to fire so you'll need Barley Wine for fire res

But it makes you resistant to pierce, which makes normal Seekers and Ticks a joke. However, Gjalls will conversely be a bigger threat and you need Barley Wine for downing before fighting Gjalls.

You can also use the Fenrir Leggings to move faster or the Padded Greaves to compensate for the armor loss from the chestplate @cold crater

[cold crater]

Mmmh yeah thank you, i will probably switch my weapon and shield (frostner and serpent) to get more agile and the barley wines arent a problem for me we got plenty of mead ingredients

[little trench]

thing is if you move away from raw armor, u're gonna have to start dodging stuff a lot more

idk if you're new to the game emel07, but that usually involves knowing enemy movesets

[cold crater]

I usually paried alot in the beginning because i liked the stagger but that is getting hard when you get swarmed with to many enemies at once

[naive latch]

Which is why mixed armor using Root Harnesk is the best cuz it lets you do anything from dodging to just sprinting and even tanking damage head on with minimal sacrifice depending on the enemy

[cold crater]

I got around 200h atm but never been this far in the game, but i would say valheim enemies are pretty easy to dodge

[naive latch]

Like yea I can't tank a Charred Warrior but Marksmen shoot toothpicks so I can just ignore them

[little trench]

alright, yea just try it out and if you're failing to dodge stuff and taking huge dmg, i recommend going back to full raw armor

[naive latch]

And especially in a game like Valheim where they throw hordes at you, it's nice to be able to ignore some of them fully

[little trench]

also hp food helps a lot if u're tanking a lot of hits

[naive latch]

Not in Mistlands because you need Stamina for traversal of terrain

[little trench]

just talking about the combat

you're not gonna do much traversal at all if you're getting bodied

[naive latch]

Yea but they said they were going Mist so I just added context

@cold crater Another good idea is to craft the Lightfoot mead

[cold crater]

Oh when do you unlock that?

[naive latch]

After killing a Hare and getting Scale Hide

[cold crater]

Oh thats ashland stuff

[naive latch]

Mistlands

[cold crater]

Wait is hare the balloon?

[naive latch]

That's a Gjall, Hares are the rabbits scurrying on the ground

[cold crater]

Aha

[naive latch]

They run rlly fast and are hard targets unless they fall in water

Hares also unlock rlly good recipes

[cold crater]

I guess they are not tameable?

[naive latch]

Nope

You can use their meat in Meat Platters and Misthare Supreme

I usually make Meat Platters cuz it's easy to hunt Hare Lox and Seekers, but Misthare Supreme needs Jotun Puffs and I'm lazy to make a farm

And once you unlock magic, Seeker Aspic is the way to go if using staves

[cold crater]

I dont know what any of these are atm 😂
But i will find out soon

[naive latch]

You will

Also use Plain Pie Picnic Feast when entering Mists

[cold crater]

I dont have feasts unlocked yet

[naive latch]

50min buff and it's very stat heavy vs other food you'll have access to

[naive latch]

Bog Witch?

They unlock in Swamp

[cold crater]

Oh yeah we have a portal there

[naive latch]

Get a Serving Tray and Grassland Spice

[cold crater]

I will check the shop out again

[limpid willow]

is it possible to have my friend trasfer a world download to me then i host?

[frosty frost]

They should be able to send you their world files

[limpid willow]

is it possible to host the same server because thats something weven been wondering

hes often busy and cant host and idk if theres a way around it

[frosty frost]

If you will keep sending each other the files with most recent changes then technically, yeah.

[limpid willow]

seems a bit tedious

is there no other way besides mods?

[frosty frost]

I am not aware of any

[limpid willow]

unfortnate

[frosty frost]

You could get dedicated server, but you would need either to have one other device that would run permanently or to pay for a server

[limpid willow]

i see

side note, i just finished up mountain for the first time and was wondering how viable it is to set up a base at plains

besides mosquitos and all

[frosty frost]

Oh its plenty viable, lots of people decide to make their main base there 🙂

[limpid willow]

all i know is that root armor really helps

[frosty frost]

Yep, reduces piercing dmg by half 🙂

[cedar lodge]

Still using it in mistlands in place of fully upgraded heavy mistlands-tier armor chestpiece

[limpid willow]

50% seems really strong

especially when you stack the bonemass buff

[cold crater]

If you want to plant everything you only need the plains and the mistlands, so i built my main base on a mistland plains border

[true steeple]

Root harnesk and Bonemass’ pierce resistance don’t stack

[limpid willow]

ah unfortunate

[true steeple]

It does stack with the serpent scale shield though

[limpid willow]

is it better to parry or block

ive found that parrying lets me stagger and kill the mob easily a lot

[devout pivot]

why does kvastur have a healthbar?

[cold crater]

Depends on the playstyle
There are certain shields that give you more bonus shield for parrys (mostly bucklers) and tower shields have higher stats but in return dont let you parry

[limpid willow]

thqats what ive noticed but later on does parrying become less viable?

[buoyant peak]

Because it's a creature

[devout pivot]

than can be killed?

[buoyant peak]

yes

[devout pivot]

do i get something from killing it?

[buoyant peak]

A kvastur trophy

[devout pivot]

does he respawn?

[buoyant peak]

Yes

[cedar lodge]

Very good decoration if you want to show thar you keep your base clean

[true steeple]

Parrying becomes more viable because its main downside, the stamina cost, doesn’t increase through progression while your max stamina does.

[limpid willow]

I see thanks

[real bear]

johnny silverhand plays valheim?

im playing cyberpunk right now lmao

[lofty mortar]

how my building getting destroyed even the foundation is good?

[coral wharf]

Can maybe mobs attack it?
"Foundation is good" - what is it made of, what r u building Ur floors from? Etc?
(That building system is more complex that one might think at first - not hating it here, I love it actually, just took me a while to experiment before I actually figured it out)

[delicate condor]

to give you an idea of my current progress, I just killed Yagluth and I started venturing into the Mistlands; what's my best source of gold farming? killing fulings?

[marble roost]

killing fulings and looting mistlands dungeons and chests in Plains

Mistlands dungeons should have a lot of coin, once you get to that point

[delicate condor]

is Sledgehammer considered a "club" in the skill tab?

[true steeple]

Yes, sledgehammers and maces are all clubs

[delicate condor]

why I can't place this feast on the table?

how does it work?

[short cosmos]

Open build menu & pick ur feast

[delicate condor]

ok I figured it out lol thanks

the serving tray is given back after consuming a feast?

[buoyant peak]

Serving tray is a tool to place food on surfaces, not a consumable

[delicate condor]

great!

[honest cedar]

Does anyone know why my dedicated server join code/IP keeps changing every few days? My friend has to constantly re-add the server because it keeps changing and he can no longer connect

I'm using the one off of steam

[honest cedar]

Any idea why that happens? I just run it and leave it

Oh I see, I had crossplay on as it was there by default. I'll remove it and hopefully it helps

[delicate condor]

what do chicks eat?

[echo sparrow]

mostly seeds & also dandelions

[delicate condor]

any kind of seed?

[rose latch]

anyone ever load up an old server and the spawn is surrounded by water?

[echo sparrow]

I don't know if they eat the seeds added later for ivy and ashvines, but carrot turnip and onion seeds definitely

[marble roost]

I believe they eat tree seeds too, although tbh I've never kept chickens

[echo sparrow]

oh they may, i haven't tested those

[frosty frost]

Yep they do eat ať least beech and birch seeds iirc

[stoic trench]

Huh, I think tending to chickens is like my 3rd favorite thing to do in Valheim
Can’t get enough chicken content

[marble roost]

I basically never tame anything

[stoic trench]

I love taming things mostly! But I think it’s really cool that it’s purely optional and that players who enjoy different parts of the game can enjoy those parts

[icy patrol]

pretty sure this gets asked alot but whats the best way to approach the swamp. im always getting jumped maliciously and its hard to raid it when theres so many mobs

[stoic trench]

First focus has to be your diet- gotta have the best foods available. Make sure you keep your rested buff up, bring healing meads, and carefully manage your stamina.

[icy patrol]

im dumb i forgot mead was a thing.

[marble roost]

Poison resist mead very important too

and bring a nice bronze buckler for blocking and/or parrying those baddies!

[icy patrol]

thats a thing

[marble roost]

Basically makes you immune to poison, which is a gamechanger for swamp

[stoic trench]

If you find yourself taking too much damage, I recommend 2HP focused foods. And yeah, poison mead is extremely useful for the swamp.

Avoid the swamp at night for now.

[icy patrol]

yeh i never go at night. bronze buckler poison res mead and better food. i just made the jam i wanted to get turnips for a spice rack

[marble roost]

I wouldn't generally recommend going triple food, but I find triple food to be pretty good when inside a swamp dungeon. Depends how well you manage stamina though

When not in a dungeon though you definitely want to have a stamina food. Or else you're dead in the water running aruond swamp

[steep tusk]

Food is the most important stat in the game...

[icy patrol]

i am horrendous at stamina management so im trying to get better at it

[icy patrol]

i learned that the hard way when an abomination smacked me to valhalla

would upgrading my bronze armor also be worth it

[stoic trench]

I think so personally, but far from necessary. It’s nice to have for sure.

Food > armor upgrades though

[icy patrol]

true true ty ty

[finite yoke]

Do you really like taming the animals, or taking care of em

[stoic trench]

Haha fair, it’s tending to the animals that I really enjoy

[placid urchin]

i havent beaten bonemass and wondering if corewood is gonna be more useful later in the game, i have so much of it but barely any use

[marble roost]

Honestly no, corewood is largely useless. Regular wood is always used, and finewood is used for a lot of strong things

Could always burn your corewood for coal, or use it for building a house

[placid urchin]

yeah thats what i thought too, just using it for coal aswell

[haughty pier]

Yall whats The best combo most of The Time For food
2 Stamina 1 health?
1 Stamina 2 health?
1 Stamina 1 health 1 feast?
(Sepearte answers including and not including eitr food plis 😔)

[marble roost]

I haven't tried the feasts yet but I'd highly recommend 2 health 1 stamina for general play.

For Eitr play you could go 3 eitr food, or my personal favorite of 1 health 1 stam 1 eitr, so you can do up close combat supplemented by magic shields and a fireball here or there

[haughty pier]

Okay just asked since i find Myself either being out of health or out of Stamina depending on how i do food 😅

[short cosmos]

2 hp 1 stamina general use
2 stam 1 hp mining
1 hp 1 stam 1 eitr - combat mage
3 eitr - full mage (idk abt this one tho)
2 feast 1 stam or hp depending on what u need - end game combo

[haughty pier]

Ok ty

[finite yoke]

Depends a lot on what biome you are on, for example when I was on mountains I used wolf jerky (balanced), eyescream (stam) and sausages (hp) as they were available in large quantities

[compact heath]

I run 2 Stam 1 Health most of the time or hybrid-meleemage 1H 1S 1E, full mage 3 Eitr. This is something that I'd highly recommend figuring out what works best for you, what difficulty you play on and what armour and weapons you're using.

[echo sparrow]

i've not tried hybrid mage but a lot of people seem to sign its praises

[little trench]

full mage > hybrid > melee (+ bow)

[short cosmos]

I don't like it because u either end up focusing too much on the melee/ranged part or the magic part

melee > magic > hybrid imo

[little trench]

im just talking like what performs best

[marble roost]

I'd agree with barney for performance, the more mage you have in the build the stronger you will be because magic is really OP

But hybrid is still pretty strong and (imo) a hell of a lot more fun. The mage part is mainly for making shields for yourself for survivability, but it's also good for chucking a fireball or something at a couple gathered enemies here and there

[devout pivot]

how far away can the skull for bonemass spawn away from the marker?

[frosty frost]

Should be right on it, but if it isnt i assume this is older world?

[devout pivot]

a little older

[frosty frost]

Before bog witch?

[devout pivot]

yeah

but on the seedmap the marker matches with the one ingame, and the one ingame was marked before any new update came out

update after the world was made

[frosty frost]

Then you will have to get new marker unfortunately (just visiting the vegvisir you got this one again will do), the bog witch update moved some locations on already existing worlds so if you had marker before it is no longer accurate.

And the seed generator doesent take into account that worlds might be made in one version and then get updated, you would have to put the game files into it for accurate locations 🙂

[devout pivot]

ok, thanks

[placid urchin]

are the different standing torches purely visual or some burn for longer ?

[true steeple]

Iron torches are significantly more fuel efficient

[placid urchin]

thanks

[frosty frost]

While i know you asked about standing torches, scones are also pretty good 🙂

[placid urchin]

yup ive heard of that, just wouldnt look as good as a standing torch where i want to place it

[regal ocean]

So after killing bone mass I should go all the way north and explore those mountains?

[true steeple]

All the way north? If you mean into the deep north, you shouldn't go there yet as it is currently a placeholder for 1.0 content.

But going into a normal mountain is ok

[regal ocean]

Oh ok so just explore the mountains on each island

[lilac coyote]

Explore the Mountains, yes. Not the final biome.

[verbal horizon]

Anybody know why my “The Elder” boss is so much stronger than what I see online? I’ve used nearly 200 fire arrows and he’s not even on half health.

[primal galleon]

Are you fighting him in multiplayer with other players? Multiplayer increases the health of nearby mobs depending on how many players are in the area

[marble roost]

Could be a variety of reasons why you don't feel like you're doing as much damage.

1. Level of your bow
2. Type of bow (crude or finewood?)
3. Level of your bow skill
4. Do you draw the bow to max before releasing?
5. Are you continually shooting him, or have you died and come back? Because he does continually regenerate health
6. If multiplayer, he has more health
7. If you're on a higher difficulty he takes less damage

[verbal horizon]

Just me.

[verbal horizon]

1. Pretty sure my bow is leveled enough, but if I die I’ll level it more.
2. Finewood
3. Refer to question 1
4. Yes
5. Continually shooting, havent died.
6. Single player.
7. Standard difficulty, I’m new.

[tough hare]

With level of the bow, it's not the skill that's meant, but how many times you've upgraded it at the workbench.
Because a tier 1 finewood bow does less damage as a tier 4 finewood bow. Even at the same bow skill.

[marble roost]

^

Tier 1 vs Tier 4 finewood bow might be making the difference. Other than that seems like you're doing good. Bow damage is heavily dependent on your characters actual bow skill too though, I would think a lot of people fighting Elder might have it at like 20-25 ish

[verbal horizon]

Ahh I see, might have miss-read the question

[sleek herald]

and gain 3 skill levels over the course of the fight

[verbal horizon]

I see, I have level 1 then, are the levels really that significant?

[sleek herald]

fairly

[verbal horizon]

Is that a threat or a command?😂

[marble roost]

You can see the damage increase if you try and go to upgrade. Pretty decent boost

[sleek herald]

comment, people will gain skill levels over the course of the fight

[verbal horizon]

Oh interesting, do people farm him for bow skill?

[marble roost]

Also specifically for bow, having your character level up his bow skill is a pretty big change. I think 0 bow skill vs 30 bow skill is over double the DPS. For other weapons skills are good too but not as important

[marble roost]

People definitely farm the boss after Elder for bow skill ;)

[sleek herald]

fair blocking trainer to

[verbal horizon]

Alright, thanks. I’ll upgrade it if I die. Just a quick question though, is the stomp parry-able?

[sleek herald]

Probably with a buckler

[full mesa]

just axe the elder to death, its a tree after all

[verbal horizon]

I have a bronze shield, and sword

[full mesa]

:D

[verbal horizon]

And a dream

[verbal horizon]

Bet he’d like that

[marble roost]

Yes. Although, you can't stagger bosses. So parrying is just for avoiding damage. A lot of people roll instead because it costs less stamina, but honestly up to preference

[verbal horizon]

Alright thanks.

[granite loom]

question about world modifiers - does increasing the resource rate affect the drop chance on rare drops, such as Soldier Trophies? Thanks!

[verbal horizon]

@marble roost @sleek herald I killed him, I found it much MUCH easier by parrying, rolling and slashing. Thank y’all for the help.

[marble roost]

Honestly I'm surprised you found melee easier, but I guess that just means you're a badass ;)

[tough hare]

No it doesn't increase the chance.
It just will drop 2 (or more) instead of one trophy IF a trophy drops.

[frosty frost]

Are the trophies even affected by the modifier 🤔

[onyx scaffold]

how wo u get load of seeds for tree farm for u wood needs

[granite loom]

bummer, but at least i have a chance at more than 1! so just as good i guess....:)

[frosty frost]

Cut lots of trees

[steep tusk]

Non-mage: HHS or HSS (depends on your playstyle if you need the extra stamina vs. extra blocking power)

Mage: EEF

[stoic trench]

I’ve been playing on 1.5 resources, I haven’t been getting double trophies 🤔

[full mesa]

for efficent wood farming "beech seeds" and "fir seeds" from there respective tree types, beech trees from meadows and fir trees from black forest

but if you can mark any oak tree that you come across and cut them down in the future once you get a bronze axe or better

[stoic trench]

I cut enough oak trees to get like 15-20 acorns, then start a farm with those

[full mesa]

oak trees will be your main source of wood and finewood

but if youre specifically looking for finewood, birch trees and oak trees is were you get them, bronze axe or better is required to cut these down

it is advised to start a tree farm

as soon as you can

not only for building but for making coal

[stoic trench]

If I’m not looking to start a tree farm, I’ll slap a portal down in a wooded plains area of birch trees and use that for my fine wood

[frosty frost]

You mean birch trees? 😉

[full mesa]

that could work but not for long as theres only some much you can cut down, vs a farm you can continously cut down trees for as how much seeds you can plant

i just ran out of oak seeds and now i have 107+ beech seeds to plant

[stoic trench]

LOL yes… I meant birch trees 🤦‍♂️

[stoic trench]

Hmm well, how much finewood does one really need? 👀 I’ve yet to cut down an entire forest. But yeah, they are technically limited.

[full mesa]

alot

bc finewood can be used for coal

[frosty frost]

Yeah, misspelling "birch" or leaving letter out of "count" can get really awkward xD

[short cosmos]

lol

[gilded ridge]

for fighting boss should using small shield or big shield?

[frosty frost]

Depends on your playstyle, both are viable

[stoic trench]

I usually like to use standard shields, as I like the flexibility of movement speed- but both are viable no doubt.

[gilded ridge]

Humm

someone told before blocking bosses attack kinda useless

[full mesa]

@stoic trench

[frosty frost]

I think they meant parrying, and its not really useless, just less usefull than parrying normal mobs since bosses can't be staggered 🙂

[stoic trench]

Parrying bosses may have been what they’re referring to

[stoic trench]

That is just pure evil lol

[full mesa]

:D

[tough hare]

You mean "cont" really has a meaning in English?

[full mesa]

i mean atm i dont have much use for finewood, ill certainly need them for iron chest but atm i dont have iron so might aswell use it cause that finewood is really really stacking up

[frosty frost]

Might, but if it does then my english level Is not on that level yet 😁

[frosty frost]

Noooo, it will be usefull for chests, portals and ships 😭

[full mesa]

portals? = check
karve? = check
coal? = n o :D

i already have a portal hub ready to go with additional portals on standby

[stoic trench]

Lol I have this weird way of breaking down material costs in my head for anything that requires metal. If something takes 30 iron, I mentally add 60 wood to the cost 😅

[full mesa]

when it comes to the karves i seperately add the finewood with the materials for the karve

[granite loom]

increasing resource rate does not appear to affect trophies :(

the pacing of the game really grinds to a halt when you get the queen... takes so long to get 3 trophies compared to how long it takes to get the other boss summons.

[buoyant peak]

It doesn't

[buoyant peak]

It's your choice to fight her again when is completely pointless to do so. And even still, just find the other two citadels in that case

[short cosmos]

wait what do u mean 2 other citadels

do u not need trophies to summon her in the other 2 or what

I remember walking into her citadel and she was already there 🤔

[tough hare]

No you don't. You only need trophies in the one where you've defeated her before.

[short cosmos]

so why are they summoning the queen again instead of finding another citadel

[buoyant peak]

Probably unawareness

[proud hinge]

im trying to get the ingredients for the mushroom galore feast but the witch isnt selling it to me

anyone know whats up with that? @ me in reply

[torn canyon]

im a cheese goblin how do i get in there(ashlands)

[drowsy crane]

You'll need a battering ram for the door

[torn canyon]

grrrrr

[torn canyon]

thank you tho, ill go make one

[subtle parrot]

Use a pickaxe to go under, or you could've dropped through the middle of those grates at the top

[desert monolith]

Literally jump through the middle if you want

[torn canyon]

ill try both

[coarse flax]

It's an Irishman trying to say the other C word XD

[drowsy crane]

Damn I almost got them to stop cheesing and you guys come along 🙄

[compact heath]

To get in the inside tower I love to build up with wood, destroy grate with demolisher, jump down and then build stairs up, gives you an undamaged tower for your fortress build too (and get over main wall just with basic wood too and replace it if it burns up)

[drowsy crane]

Yeah that seems like too much work, building a ram takes literally 2 seconds the only hurdle is flametal

[short cosmos]

dig under about halfway or so to max depth then break the corner of the building and just jump in

[short cosmos]

if u have the materials for it, otherwise u can dig to get to it or break the top and jump in

[drowsy crane]

That.. that's been typed out 3x now 😅

[short cosmos]

[subtle parrot]

It's not really that much work, especially if you've done it a few times

[drowsy crane]

Running up and down the staircases just to access a fortress build is crazy

[subtle parrot]

I mean, do whatever you want with your build, but seiging is more of a hassle than jumping over a wall imo

[drowsy crane]

...4 hits and you're in, you can use the catapult to wipe the crowd & walk right in 🤷‍♂️

Placing a workbench can't be viewed as that difficult surely

[subtle parrot]

Lol who said it was?

[drowsy crane]

seiging is more of a hassle than jumping over a wall

[subtle parrot]

Yeh place a bench put a stair and jump over the wall. Ez pz

[drowsy crane]

Stand in 1 place, break gate, run to another, wipe crowd, done.

[subtle parrot]

Same thing, different steps

[drowsy crane]

It's not because you're now fighting warlocks & starred charred up close

[subtle parrot]

If that's an issue, then don't do that, obviously

[drowsy crane]

Not to mention their ballistas

[subtle parrot]

Their ballista die in 1 or 2 hits they're not an issue

[drowsy crane]

I'm just saying the way you're describing has over 20 enemies aggrod up close, not how difficult they are

[marble roost]

Did bog witch update remove dismantling build pieces while sprinting?

[drowsy crane]

I don't believe so

[subtle parrot]

Ok, and if that's an issue for you then don't do it, but it's not that much of an issue imo

[drowsy crane]

I don't do it because it's not optimal given the massive improvements you unlock, not because it's an issue.

[subtle parrot]

If you say so

[drowsy crane]

Definitely, I'm not sure why anyone would bring enough for a workbench, 3 sets of stairs, and probably utilize a lot of arrow materials all for something that is made easy with things you unlock in the biome and weighs less to bring along. 🤷‍♂️

[subtle parrot]

So 16 wood is hard to come by? And heavier than 10 flame metal? Got it

[drowsy crane]

So what I'm getting from this is that you've never built a Catapult because you just.. move it with you like cart.

[subtle parrot]

I have, and i do know, but that's a hassle imo. And how you gonna pull the cata and ram at the same time? Do whatever you want, siege however you want, be as optimal as you want. But it's not difficult to jump over a wall and kill a few things.

[drowsy crane]

You build the ram there, it's only 1 flametal & a couple surtling cores. I'd definitely invite you to try it out, because I'd say the very same, it's not difficult to build 2 things and kill everything.

[tired root]

For the spice of Mistlands feast you must defeat the Mistlands boss first.

[short cosmos]

Same goes for Ashlands feast ^^

[compact heath]

And mountains and plains one too, the only ones that are different are the first three

[candid lynx]

whats the usecase for the fracturing staff, i find the green groot staff wayy more functional compared to almost everything

[short cosmos]

fun

[short cosmos]

really? I never made those feasts so Idk that, good to know tho

[tired root]

The Fracturing staff has good single target damage when all clusters hit the same target but it has quite poor AoE.

[candid lynx]

hmm feels like the dundr does the same but maybe better

[tired root]

They are quite different. Dundr is loaded before shooting (similarly to crossbows), it has huge knockback on its shots and it's highly effective against Morgen since it's weak against lightning.

Plus it's fun tool, you can shoot fallen tree logs with huge knockback lol.

[candid lynx]

wait shoot trees? lmao

[full mesa]

curious, how does the fish spawn mechanics work ingame, i usually just catch all the fishes in one spot and move on to another spot, what happens if i just keep two of the same type like trout and pike we'll they like breed and respawn stuff like that, what would happen if i catch them all will they still respawn? or no respawn?

[tired root]

Yeah, tree logs. Like this: #memes-and-clips message

[candid lynx]

sheesh

[delicate condor]

is this enough space for the chicken to lay eggs?

[willow raft]

You need 2 happy chickens (feed them) and they have to get hearts above them then one of them will get pregnant and lay an egg.
There won't be that many eggs though since they can only lay x amount of eggs per x amount of space.
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Egg

[delicate condor]

perfect; just in case, how can I move chickens around?
same way I move boars with harpoon? or they'll take more damage?

[willow raft]

easiest way is to get eggs and hatch them under a roof with a fire nearby, do make sure the hatched chicks can't get into the fire, because they will do it and die.

[delicate condor]

if they're already hatched, how can I move them from one area to another conveniently?

[willow raft]

I've never tried to drag them with a harpoon, don't know if they would survive.
You can push them around, I made little pathways with fences and pushed them where they needed to go, I also used roof parts and walls to push them up somewhere if I needed them higher.

Feeding them some seeds or dandelions and waiting till you have two eggs is the easiest and safest way.
It is also a good idea to put some eggs in a chest or so that if something happens to the chickens you can start over.

[delicate condor]

nice! you think in that space I can at least have 2 eggs hatched?

[willow raft]

Hatching won't be a problem, getting more eggs might be a problem but you should be able to get 2 in that space, maybe one by one though but you won't know till you test it.
You can hatch a whole boatload of eggs in a tiny space, it is getting the eggs that might pose a problem.
There can be only x amount of hens and eggs in a certain area.
You can have heaps of eggs as long as they are single eggs and not stacks in a tiny spot all hatch.

So a auto farmer is possible, have the chickens in a small area with slopes down so when they lay an egg, the egg rolls down, have a fire and a roof over the place the eggs roll to and they will keep on hatching till there is no more room and they get pushed trough the walls.
if you devise a way so that the hens get killed when they mature but not when they are still chicks you have an auto farm, tons of examples can be found on the net

[delicate condor]

thanks, very insightful!

[coral wharf]

I don't know exactly but I'm pretty sure they just spawn around certain generated area - I've seen people building certain traps so that they can just walk up and pick up some free fish during the storm

[cedar lodge]

pretty sure they do, i got several fishing spot that remains the same, no clue about respawn rates though, i just check from time to time

[umbral sandal]

Are there any valheim mods that completely changes the vanilla game and provides new bosses and stuff to make it harder?

[lilac coyote]

As with all spawns, they're entirely random, but obviously some areas meet the spawn requirements better than others.

[lilac coyote]

Sounds like you want a different game.

[umbral sandal]

😂 no i was just wondering if theres something like rl craft

[lilac coyote]

Thankfully no, that's a horrible modpack.

[frosty frost]

Folks in #mods-discussion may know 🙂 but as Derek said, whats even point of buying the game when you want something different

[umbral sandal]

Alright thanks. Yea i get ur point but i recently just completed valheim and im looking to try out some mods

[candid lynx]

can u cook asksvin egg

[frosty frost]

Nope.

[delicate condor]

best arrows against mistlands monsters?
I still have dvergr's fang though

[frosty frost]

Frost arrows i would say, but needle or carapace are great too

[delicate condor]

👍

[frosty frost]

-# And you will be able to make a new bow in mistlands 😉

[delicate condor]

crossbow?

[frosty frost]

You are able to make that but also new bow 🙂

[delicate condor]

ooh!

[compact heath]

yeah mistlands bow and frost arrows and also carapace arrows when running low on frost works, but frost ones with the new bow are quite good

[cedar lodge]

also very badass looking, and good for undead later

[frosty frost]

Yep

[coral wharf]

Crossbow is nice too, it just doesn't scale with skill lvl so well. So depending on your playstyle in previous biomes it might actually be better.
I prefer crossbow bcs it's lvl 0 performance is better that the bows on lol lvl. And I'm hardly ever using the bow so my characters usually have bow skills around 10-15 lvl when reaching mistlands -> lvl0 crossbow is better for me -> and then I still barely use it, just to shoot at gjalls when the positioning/terrain doesn't allow me to spear them

I like to play with daggers, bow and light armor

I cant wait to craft dual daggers!

[cedar lodge]

trying to shut down a greydwarf spawner to build a blood magic gym around it, tought i had to cover it with roofs but isn't working

[lilac coyote]

If you want to 'shut it down' why not just destroy it?

[frosty frost]

You cant really shut it down unless you build ton of floors around it iirc, if you want the greadwarves to stop attacking you just buld campfires nearby

[frosty frost]

They want to use the greydwarfs to level up blood magic i believe

[lilac coyote]

Oh, level grinding. Not my thing really.

[cedar lodge]

i need it alive to build the gym

[cedar lodge]

yeh i know it's cheesy, i'm a bit ashamed of myself actually

[lilac coyote]

I wouldn't say cheesy, just utterly unecessary in this game. You can level quite happily just by playing the game.

[cedar lodge]

i know, i'm slowly getting around magic build fight style, but with skills this low it's still very difficult to stay alive even in plains, let alone mistlands

[frosty frost]

I mean it doubles as a resource farm 🙂 but the level grinding is indeed quite unnecessary

[lilac coyote]

Ooh, you added the Eitr usage. I meant to do that yesterday, but I was on mobile at the time and was having trouble with the editor.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, it was the only staff that didnt have it for some reason 🙂

[lilac coyote]

It didn't seem to be a default option on the template either even though there's a layout for it.

realises we're now in completely the wrong channel for this

[frosty frost]

I just copied the eitr section from source of the staff of ember page and pasted it with correct value in the spot it was on the other staffs page

Oh, yeah true xD

[lilac coyote]

Wrong channel notwithstanding, I've now added that to the template, so it should always be an option now

[cedar lodge]

anyway it got accidentally destroyed, i'll take this as a sign and try harder with skeletts in open field i guess

[tame horizon]

Hi guys

are mods be integrated on to the world or are they loaded through your pc

[frosty frost]

That would be probably better question for #mods-discussion 🙂

[tame horizon]

OH oops

ty

[frosty frost]

No problem 🙂

Dig a hole and push the greydwarfs in it, there can only be 3 greydwarfs per spawner.

There won't be any additional greydwarfs from the spawner, there will be others from the world but not from the spawner.

[cedar lodge]

yup i know and tried, still thrown rocks bothered my building patience, plus listening to more experienced players advice, plus spawner accidentally destroyed = moving on to other stuff

[willow raft]

Try again later ^^

[glass blade]

Hello there, is it a bug or a feature that the fire of the standig Brazier does not count as fire when I want to go to bed?

Okay after rebuilding it it worked

[worldly roost]

should i prep mistlands armor lvl max for ashlands or is it fine to just go in with base lvl

[little trench]

max it

[lilac coyote]

Base level is absolutely fine.

[coral wharf]

Mine greydwarf enclosure looks like his:

• its 8x7 tiles around, and u can toggle it on and off by placing roof in that corewood area
• this one is made with hearths for the resource farm
• i tried farming bloodmagic EXP this way too - but both greydwars and skeletons tend to destroy the spawner preety quickly - u can maybe try to dig a hole so that the spawner stays above ground lvl so they won't slap it on accident ( the greydwarfs will still spawn but u'll need to create the terrain in a way that they r forced to fall into ur skeleton hole )

[gilded ridge]

Why the seeker flying in there?

[coral wharf]

they start to appear at night in the lower biomes after queen kill

[gilded ridge]

Owh sorry i forgot]

[coral wharf]

same goes for fullings after yag and so on

[drowsy basalt]

hmm, what should i do. i am lookinf for third mysterious location, but there is nothing here. i found new vegvisir mysterious location, but it gives the same place again. i dont know what to do. there is 1 putrid hole nearby, and there was nothing

also here is no building nowhere close

[echo sparrow]

I always put walls around the spawner hugging it as close as possible to prevent spawns "inside" between the wall and spawner, that way the idiot greydwarfs throwing rocks won't accidentally destroy it (because they will, otherwise)--another benefit is it does make farming blood magic pretty easy the way you describe (just summon a bunch of skellets inside spawning area and then move to stand on the other side of enclosure around spawning area occasionally refreshing protection bubble (for more leveling) or replacing lost skellets

[lilac coyote]

I'd imagine so.

[willow raft]

Digging a hole under it, flooring every spot that you don't want them to spawn in and putting the skeletons in there will solve that.
They can only spawn on earth, so any floor stops them from spawning there.

#dedicated-server

[cedar lodge]

thanks a lot, that's quite explainatory, maybe i'll try again in the future (refilled the hole and planted a tree on in for now)

[delicate condor]

im in mistlands; will there be any future recipe requiring boar kmeat?

[tired root]

Nope.

[lilac coyote]

So far, no.

[delicate condor]

👍

[left oriole]

So trying to take over a swamp.... and stuff keeps spawning within playerbase circles across the swamp.... is there a render distance where these artisan tables don't keep themselves rendered to stop stuff from spawning?

[lilac coyote]

Nothing will spawn if out of render range.

[left oriole]

I have like 2 artisan tables, blocking spawns, but every time I'm far away from a geyser and get close to it, 3 fire boys spawn and then don't spawn anymore after I'm near it. So that's why I'm questioning how these player base radious's work.

[lilac coyote]

Artisan tables have a range of 40m.

[left oriole]

yup, and stuff keeps spawning in their range, because of how far away they are not rendered in, allowing swampy stuff to spawn.
