But in live-streams and interviews, the Dev's has teased that it might be smaller changes to some other biomes (if not all biomes), so a new world and character for version 1.0 could be fun experience for old players.

[tired root]

Yeah, also we don't know what the upcoming Combat update will add to the earlier biomes, so if it adds new POIs then they will be generated in unexplored areas.

[harsh hinge]

Generally yes, but just kinda rough too since me and my friends have done 3 or 4 start overs

[jade rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/rookie-numbers-gif-26135237

[harsh hinge]

@jade rapids not wrong, but also just getting iff the wild grind at the end of Dune. 😭

[buoyant oracle]

at that point I would enable the recource modifier

it's better to actually to get to enjoy the game

[amber pike]

Anyone with an Amd card get AFMF to run on Valheim successfully?

[fiery heron]

Hello, I have a problem with my boar farm. The Boar im looking at won't eat and stay hungry, the one on the left eats, i've tried switching foods and all but it didn't work, the farm worked before at this exact setup, suddenly the boar stopped eating. What can I do?

[thorn spire]

I've seen similar things happen if they move in just a certain way to glitch out and suddenly they can't pathfind to the food any longer. I'd say try just moving him around again.

[coarse lantern]

how would you go about implementing this though? can you build support beams underwater?

[full mesa]

You can try doing this, just what like rudeman said or put the food as close as possible to the wall dont stand near the wall

just enough distance so that it bumps the wall and falls down whilst being close to the wall as possible

[iron talon]

Do Asksvin 2-star spawn at the same spot or is it just randomly?

[true steeple]

It's random

[iron talon]

Thanks

[fiery heron]

It was the distance to the food, they refused too eat unless the food was literally on the edge of the wall

Can boars refuse to eat something? for example only eat carrots or berries?

[full mesa]

they eat mainly veggies and raspberries aswell

[true steeple]

Their full list of food is always available, they'll only refuse something they can't eat.

[full mesa]

They are random since they spawn at night and despawn at dawn

If you're trying to capture one, I would set up the traps in advance and all the necessary resources a safe area near the trap

Putrid holes are the best for a safe area

make terrain walls covering the entrance jump inside and put workbenches, portal, and chest

[floral hearth]

need ppl for ash lands

we're only 2 just got to ash lands we're suffering

[reef narwhal]

Is the swamp supposed to generate at a small strip and the rest underwater

[full mesa]

The world os randomly generated so might have come across a tiny swamp

[reef narwhal]

Damn

[full mesa]

get the crypts there and move onto another swamp

[reef narwhal]

I thought maybe I have to do something to unsink parts of it

[full mesa]

nope

[marble igloo]

Is there a way to make a "chunk loader"?

[knotty jetty]

how many meats are there? building a storage

[marble igloo]

[frosty frost]

• ||Rotten meat|| 😉

[knotty jetty]

ty

[frosty frost]

But you should not eat that one 😄

[marble igloo]

how do you make a spoiler message?

[knotty jetty]

||

[frosty frost]

You put || on either side of the message you want to hide

[marble igloo]

||hi||

[frosty frost]

Or select the word and click on the eye that shows 🙂

[marble igloo]

thx

[knotty jetty]

herbs theres thistle and dandelion
berries theres blueberries and raspeberries
then theres crops
entrails and muck
am i missing anything for cooking?

[frosty frost]

So you want every item used for cooking?

[knotty jetty]

yeah

[frosty frost]

then just look here https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Food and write down all the ingredients 🙂

[knotty jetty]

oh and honey

ty

[marble roost]

Are you making a chest for every item?

[frosty frost]

and cloudberries, mushrooms, ooze, greydwarf eye, freeze gland, egg, sap, royal jelly, smokepuffs, fiddlehead, volture meat, bonemaw meat and volture egg

[marble roost]

Also we can't forget that these are just the raw materials. Then there's also cooked versions and various dishes!

[knotty jetty]

just kitchen

[marble roost]

I never really understood having a chest for each item

Though it seems like a pretty popular move

[knotty jetty]

i like having space

although im keeping kitchen stuff separate

stuff like tree seeds i do keep mixed in 1 chest

[marble roost]

Me too. Running out of space sucks. But a small chest for each item seems like less space than the alternative

[knotty jetty]

its less searching

[marble roost]

I find it to be more searching 😂

Maybe its just preference though

I usually just make big chests that hold a few different items in a category. Bigger chests are more space efficient

And then if I need to get something, or especially if I need to drop off some stuff, I just run to one or two chests and drop it all. Instead of running around my storage room to find 15 different chests

But I do see the appeal of a label on every chest and having it neatly organized

[steel hemlock]

would anyone be able to help me? My game keeps crashing. didnt happen for the first month or so of our playthrough but now since we got to the mistlands i get it almost reguraly. I have my crash logs if anyone can decifer what they mean
i am playing with mods. I've disabled them and i get the same crash. so it cannot be the mods

[marble roost]

I'm not too versed in this topic, but from my understanding bugs/crashes on a modded world are 19/20 times due to the mods, and simply disabling them may not be enough because there's leftover files here and there.

Think you need to fully uninstall the mods / uninstall reinstall valheim. I'd prob ask in #mods-issues to check on that though

[steel hemlock]

i have, thats the issue

[marble roost]

sad

[steel hemlock]

this is purly a valheim issue

[ornate finch]

It's not enough to disable mods. They have to be moved from the installation folder.
Also, mods can have permanent save breaking effects in the world and character files that sometimes don't go away after removing them.
What are you system specs?

Also important, in what manner are you crashing? (frame freeze, black screen, PC restart, crash to desktop...)

[steel hemlock]

little white loading window with the valhiem logo on it. I think its a unity crash popup or something

windows 11 pro I7 9700K, 32 g ram

[ornate finch]

Crashes like these are usually related to mods.

Check how your Valheim installation folder looks like
It should look like this: https://i.imgur.com/vdpdeOA.jpg

If you have more files, you are still playing with mods

[steel hemlock]

if i have other folders can i just strait up delete them?

[tired root]

Also ||Volture||.

[steel hemlock]

disabled all mods, crashed again after 10 or no minutes of playing

sorry. didnt disable. actualy removed them. my folder looks exactly like the picture you sent

[ornate finch]

Did you grab the player.log after that last crash you had?

%username%\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim

player.log and player-prev.log

[steel hemlock]

if i started the game again will the logs be overwritten?

[ornate finch]

Yeah, player.log becomes player-prev.log (previous)

It is last two game launched that are always stores in those two log files

You can DM me those

[tawny solar]

Will I need iron for anything in the ashlands?

[true steeple]

You’ll want a stonecutter and I’m pretty sure shield generators require iron too. If you don’t have enough you can find it rarely in pots there.

[tawny solar]

Thanks!

[marble roost]

Probably bring iron but I don’t think Ashlands is too iron heavy

[tawny solar]

Do I need it for equipment?

[true steeple]

No, ashlands has its own metal used for equipment

[marble igloo]

is there a way to make a "chunk loader"?

[true steeple]

I haven’t seen any before, I think areas are only ever loaded based on distance to the player and if that’s the case it’s not possible.

[marble igloo]

okay, thx

[teal robin]

can some help

[proper moat]

Is there a way i can build the beacon from the dverger lighthouses ?

Like this really bright wisp thing in a bowl thingy

This thing

[frosty frost]

You can spawn it using devcommands, no way to do it normally. But there are wisp torches that also get rid of the mist tho they are smaler.

[ornate finch]

Are you trying to launch two instanced of Valheim on two separate devices at the same time?

[teal robin]

No

[ornate finch]

You have to talk with Microsoft support about this.
Think for regular subscription you are allowed to connect 10 devices with that Xbox account.
Gamepass ultimate allows for unlimited devices, I think (not sure).
You can remove devices here: https://account.microsoft.com/devices

[teal robin]

i removed

but its this same problem

[dusty lion]

does anybody wanna play with me?

[tired root]

Someone in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 might.

[tacit breach]

How do you find your old world save files? Ours just crapped out, badly. It has us all the way back to day 1 and 2. We still have our plains gear, though.

Our world is also still mapped. Just everything is reset to day 1/2.

So all our old gear is gone, all our saved up supplies, etc...

[true steeple]

Use the manage saves button on world or character select to find automatic backups

[marble roost]

^ search for world. Sounds like your world went back, but your character saves (gear, skills, map explored) are fine

[inner maple]

How close do I need to be to a workbench to trigger a raid?

[frosty frost]

You need to be within 40 meters of at least 3 base structures for the raid to trigger.

[inner maple]

And one of them needs to be a workbench? Or are the raids not based on workbenches

[frosty frost]

They are based on player base structures, workbench is a player base structure and so are many other things 🙂

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base everything here is a player base structure and counts towards the 3 structures needed for raids

[marble roost]

Doesn’t need to be workbench, but a lot of things count. Chest, forge, workbench, standing torch, etc.

[frosty frost]

Yes... All things listed here... https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base

[tacit breach]

Yeah, fortunately the old files weren't that old.

[carmine talon]

Is defence a factor in how well you can parry? I know about health, stamina, and parry force. But wondering if the armors defence plays a role

[inner maple]

Awesome thanks!

[viral cave]

No. Only max health and parry force. Minimum 10 stamina, costs 20.

[carmine talon]

ok cool, thanks!

[frosty frost]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Blocking#Parrying 🙂

[winged solstice]

is it better to use fire arrows or poison arrows on moder?

[true steeple]

Obsidian arrows

Or needle arrows if you don’t mind a small progression skip

[marble roost]

Fire. But as Blob said Obsidian is even better

Or if you really want to put the hurt on her, go stab her with a fang spear

[woeful valley]

hello! i cant exit that command any help?

[marble roost]

I'd say escape or f1. But could always just restart the game

[woeful valley]

tried both doesnt work and restart also not working

it happens when i add better trader mod

if i remove that then its good but why

[marble roost]

Mods have a tendency to cause all sorts of issues, and can be hard to troubleshoot. Probably gonna have to just turn it off or ask for help in #mods-issues

[woeful valley]

ok then i guess i will play without

that mod thanks

[fierce venture]

Only your shield/item's block armor and parry bonus contribute to whether or not your parry staggers the target. However, the left over damage after the block calculation still adds to your stagger bar. So even if you successfully parry, armor can be a determining factor whether or not you get staggered as well.

[true steeple]

A high enough max health is also required to stagger the target, if the damage after block armor but before normal armor is enough to stagger you, the block fails.

[unique granite]

To tame an animal do you need to keep the chunk they're in loaded?

[magic gale]

How do I join a dedicated server

That's on steam when im on xbox

[true steeple]

If the server has cross platform multiplayer enabled, the host or any player currently logged in should be able to send you a join code that you can connect with.

[magic gale]

Ok

[urban jolt]

How to plant trees ? I had the unlock of the tool but I dont see it to craft

[frosty frost]

You need cultivator and tree seeds

[urban jolt]

I had the achivement to unlock it but I dont see where I can build it

[frosty frost]

Go to cultivator menu and you should see them

[urban jolt]

Okay

[small nest]

ye

[unique granite]

Sick

[silent jackal]

you yourself need to be within 60 meters of the animal being tamed. i dont think just keeping the chunk loaded will work

[unique granite]

So it doesn't update once you load in the chunk?

[frosty frost]

Well, withing ~64 meters, and no, the chunk has to be loaded for the taming to progress, once the chunk isnt loaded it will pause

[reef narwhal]

What should I buy from Haldor other than the carry weight pouch

[marble igloo]

Is there any other criteria for wolfes to breed?
I followed this Video exactly and they arent breeding... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XF0XH7mMRhk&t=222s

[marble roost]

Carry weight is the only realllll important thing. But if you like fishing the fishing rod is fun, and there’s some pretty good items that get added to his shop as you kill bosses

[reef narwhal]

Oh ok thanks

[manic gyro]

The chunk being active is enough, but the taming potion that cuts the taming time in half is only effective if the player is within 60m of the animal

[reef narwhal]

Also im a little confused on how crops work because i can grow from seed to crop easily but whenever I try to go from crop to seed they disappear

[true steeple]

Are any creatures able to attack the crops? They will try to destroy any that they see.

[reef narwhal]

Ohhh I didn’t know they went after crops only the buildings thanks

[marble roost]

Yea definitely fence them in. Careful of Shamen too, they can kill plants through walls with their poison spray

[true steeple]

They won't attack the plants if they can't see the plants

[reef narwhal]

Ive seen people put like walls using the leveler around their base is that a genuine good thing or?

[true steeple]

Raised terrain walls can't be broken by enemies but they're ugly so I don't use them. You don't need a particularly strong wall since you can just walk outside during a raid and the enemies will be able to reach you without breaking anything.

[reef narwhal]

Oh so they only break your stuff when they cant hit you?

[marble roost]

Ehhhh

Plants can definitely get caught in the crossfire

[true steeple]

Sometimes they will prioritise static targets (certain build pieces such as workbenches and plants) but generally they will attack creatures including the player first.

[reef narwhal]

And will trolls one shot stake walls?

[true steeple]

No, those walls are pretty strong and should survive multiple hits

[reef narwhal]

Oh dope ill start putting some up then

And to make my building zone bigger do I have to put max level workbenches or just normal ones, i assume normal since its just for the zone and not for the use of it

[true steeple]

They don't need to be upgraded, but upgraded stations have a larger radius. All build pieces only need a level 1 crafting station to be placed.

[reef narwhal]

Ok dope

[full mesa]

The stake wall has 1000hp so it takes 3-4 hits for a troll to take it down because they do around 250-300 dmg against structures so they are pretty good even for trolls

for iirc 6 or 8 wood thats pretty good

[tired root]

Iirc the damage of trolls also have MTP so hitting multiple stakewalls will split their damage.

[full mesa]

even better

gives you precious seconds to get out and deal with them before they cause real property destruction

[true steeple]

They don't have multi-target penalty

[tired root]

I'm quite sure I've seen their damage dropping bit when hitting multiple targets.

[true steeple]

The aoe from the groundslam probably has reducing damage with distance, I'll check that now. None of the melee hitboxes have MTP

[tired root]

Is there some statistics to see?

[true steeple]

I made a spreadsheet with some information about enemy attacks but I don't like sharing it because it's very messy and I wouldn't want to potentially give out some wrong information. The details were recorded with a tool that allows me to see the variables of the game objects, so it is all accurate.

[tired root]

I see. 👍

[true steeple]

Testing in-game now it also seems like it deals the same damage to multiple objects and one object

[marble igloo]

Does anyone have a working wolf breeder?

[true steeple]

If you want to see it, you can find it here #valheim-chat message

[tired root]

Guess I was mistaken then. But I'm going to test it by myself once I get back to my PC.

[tough hare]

The Dvergr Circlet is quite useful too, though.

Either for exploring caves / dungeons or when you want to build at night but don't want to put a trillion torches up.

Plus, when you place it at an item stand, it makes for a nice permanent light source.

[marble roost]

True. I never really wear it out exploring tho, the 1 armor with no other buffs is brutal

Unrelated question:

Does staggering an enemy make them take twice the amount of heal when healed?

[true steeple]

No, they still have normal healing

[marble roost]

Weird, it still makes the staggered damage hit sound when they get healed. But I guess its just an audible thing

[frosty frost]

Wdym when they get healed?

If by a shaman it shouldnt do any sound other than the shaman effect

[marble roost]

Had a Shaman heal a staggered enemy and I'm pretty sure it sounded like when you're hitting a staggered enemy

was a couple days ago tho

[true steeple]

That was probably caused by the hit applying the status effect rather than the healing directly, I’ll be able to test it in a few minutes.

[true steeple]

This is what happened

[vagrant portal]

So in order to make remote portals you need to carry around mats from Black Forest wherever you go?

[frozen cypress]

Is it beneficial to upgrade the staff of protection?

[marble roost]

Yeah

[tired root]

+1 min duration per quality of the staff.

[vagrant portal]

Okie dokie. Thanks.

[marble roost]

Techincally Yes

Realistically eh. Lvl 2 is good but beyond that not too useufl

[tired root]

I'd argue 4min duration bubble being useful.

[marble roost]

Guess it depends on playstyle. Usually my bubble gets broken within 30 sec anyways. Plus sometimes I want it to expire so I can summon a new full health bubble

[wanton dock]

suggestions for fighting Fader solo? i have full level 3 flametal armor. should i use bonemass or yagluth power?

[true steeple]

Almost all of fader's physical damage is pierce which you can resist with the root harnesk, and fire damage is resisted with barley wine. Eikthyr's power is what I would recommend

His only physical damage which isn't pierce is 80 blunt damage on his ||meteor|| attack

[wanton dock]

👍

is the lingering health potion better than the major healing potion?

[tired root]

What weapons do you have?

[tired root]

I prefer major healing over lingering.

[true steeple]

No since most of it will be wasted while you're at full health instead of being used when your health is low

[wanton dock]

thundering beserkir axes, root ripper, dundr, all level 2

[marble igloo]

Is there a way to remove manually placed thistles?

[tired root]

Better ask in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966

[wanton dock]

what about stamina potions?

[true steeple]

I'd use a lingering stamina mead, you can also bring tasty mead if you have a free slot

Tonic of ratatosk and lightfoot mead will help since there are many aoes you might want to jump over

[tired root]

Axes are good, I'd recommend also having melee with jade variant, Primal axes are great too.

Another recommendation to tasty mead, it's great.

[wanton dock]

for food i have crust pie, piquant pie, and marinated greens

[tired root]

Hmm, going Hybrid mage melee? I did the same the first time.

[wanton dock]

yeah

i think the dundr is super cool even if its not that good

i just love electricity weapons in any game

[tired root]

Nice, I also used Dundr and Thundering axes against Fader.

[wanton dock]

i would've had a electric ripper too but i didn't have enough of the stones, i got like 6 jades though lol

[tired root]

But nowadays I like the Primal axes even more than Thunder.

[frozen cypress]

Anyone who's worn the Ask set, what weapons or playstyle would you recommend the most with it? I imagine it's for archers or ppl who need a lot of movement instead of tankiness

[true steeple]

It's what I'd recommend for anyone in ashlands who isn't using magic. It's good for melee too!

Flametal armor isn't too bad but why go for the option that reduces damage instead of what helps you avoid it entirely?

If you have a good shield you can still tank plenty of hits

[tired root]

Nowadays it's my go to armor set with Ashen cape. Can quite comfortably go throught the Ashlands while wearing it. My main melee choices are Klossen, Storm Splitnir and Primal/Thunder axes.

[karmic hearth]

I'm also running melee with Ashen Cape, Flametal Shield and Thundering Niddhog. Parrying all the time and buzzing this charred lot away.

[tepid valley]

hello. I am currently in the mistlands. I was playing as a group, but am the sole survivor. I currently use frostner, huntsman bow lv 4, and lv 4 padded gear. I am not sure what to work towards in gear progression to prepare for queen/fighting in mistlands. Ive started gathering sap and getting soft tissue to make eitr, but thats all I really know. Anyone have any advice?

[karmic hearth]

Did you come across mines too? You'll find many of the required items to further progress there. Also keep an eye out for Mist-tier food. Hunt stuff and check Haldor again if you haven't already

[marble roost]

^ Wanna definitely go exploring mistlands dungeons for rare materials. Some dungeons may not even have any, but they're essential

[tepid valley]

I have gone into the infested mines and cleared a few alr.

Im just not sure what im supposed to be crafting at this point

[frosty frost]

Did you find any black cores?

[faint osprey]

holding a cultivator press your destroy button default is middle click

[gleaming sun]

does bronze atgeir stun trolls and if yes how does that work?

[tired root]

Stagger, yes. Using secondary attack has high stagger multiplier (6x) which staggers most enemy mobs quite easily.

[true steeple]

With a low polearms skill you may not always stagger them because of damage variance so be careful if you haven’t used polearms much.

[marble roost]

If you’re already making Eitr, you should have about everything you need. Eitr is the key thing you need, and then you need to build two new types of crafting tables to make mistlands gear

Make sure youve cut down some mistlands trees too

[frozen cypress]

Is there a biome in which a tower shield is more viable than a regular one? I'm trying to use a tower shield in the ashlands, but i'd say the parry bonus is far better to have

Knocking them back is kinda counter intuitive unless i'm up against a horde

[fervent birch]

Not really, man. Tower shields are pretty underwhelming.

[marble roost]

Tower shields are largely just for people who don't like parrying / suck at parrying

If you can parry, a regular shield is just better in almost every way

Also if I remember right the Ashland's parry shield isn't even that great either. Fully upgraded mistlands shield is great though and will do fine in Ashlands too

[stoic flume]

no infested dungeon?

unless that abandoned dverger tower I saw from shore was one?

[marble roost]

Could be. Infested dungeons are always either in the basement of a ruined dvergr tower, or its a staircase leading inside a big rock spike

[fervent birch]

I always have to find a larger Mistlands area and go inland to find them reliably.

[stoic flume]

oh cool, Ill check back there later then

gg I feel into a deep column hole

[tawny solar]

Try eating a bunch of stamina foods and then try running back up

[stoic flume]

yeah didnt work just did /die it was a naked exploration char anyway

[tawny solar]

Nothing too important you had on?

[marble roost]

Man I keep forgetting that people use death as a tool in valheim. Die to get back home. Die to make tombstones for corpserun buff, etc.

I always try my very best to not die once on a playthrough 😂

[fervent birch]

Same. Every skill drop is an offence to me!

[marble roost]

Last year or two I've been doing permadeath runs and they're so fun

[stoic flume]

theres seekers inside I think its an infested, though theres a magma flying thing there that keeps killing me, my portal better survive

[stoic flume]

damn

[stoic flume]

I mean, I was literally stuck with no way out

[stoic flume]

gg its not a dungeon

[marble roost]

pickaxe couldn't get you out of it?

I mean its fair to just die if you get stuck but I moreso meant the fact that you're exploring while naked

[stoic flume]

didnt bring one lol

[fair jewel]

looking to join a server

[gleaming sun]

do surtling cores respawn?

[stoic trench]

They do not

[gleaming sun]

[marble roost]

In the black forest dungeons they do not. There is a renewable source of them later on tho

[stoic flume]

It was fake it doesn't go down....

Im never finding a mistlands dungeon

[drowsy crane]

Not if you keep probing the mistlands naked haha

[stoic flume]

Why is that?

Its not like Im dying often

[drowsy crane]

You just found out didn't you? It's easy to get stuck.

[stoic flume]

huh?

[drowsy crane]

Idk why you're arguing when I am agreeing with your statement 🙄

[stoic flume]

HUH?

my brain literally cant follow what youre saying

[marble roost]

Think they're talking about earlier where you got stuck because you didn't have a pickaxe. Was definitely a confusing statement though

[stoic flume]

oh

[drowsy crane]

Don't worry English is tough

[stoic flume]

FINALLY

took me long enough

[subtle parrot]

Better to have 10 words to describe 1 thing rather than 1 word to describe 10 things, in my opinion as a native english speaker lol

[marble roost]

Congrats! Now your adventure can truly get started

[drowsy crane]

Good thing English does both for some reason

[subtle parrot]

All at the same time, it's the best 🤣

[stoic flume]

surely itll contain 5 cores right

[marble roost]

I give it a 31% estimated chance of having 5 cores

In my experience they usually have like 8 ish or zero. Never feels like its in the middle

[zinc gulch]

does this small roof mean that all connected wood now does NOT get weather damage? I saw somewhere that adding a roof gives weather damage resistance but not sure how far this...like this rule reaches 🙂 Sorry english is not my language I hope people can help

[sinful seal]

Yeah, mines are either great or terrible lol

[stoic flume]

odin knows I spent a lot of effort finding it, he'll grant me the cores

[sinful seal]

No, any wood that is not covered will get rain damage

[zinc gulch]

will it break too?

[sinful seal]

No just from rain but an enemby can come along and break it easier

[zinc gulch]

how does a like wooden dock then works? do i have to repair it like every day 😢 ?!

[marble roost]

The roof only protects the floor right under it. So one little part won't get damaged, the rest will

Rain will only damage the floor to 50% health though. It won't break it

[zinc gulch]

OOH

[marble roost]

Sadly yes, if it doesn't have a roof

[viral cave]

I've seen worse English from native speakers. You're fine lol

[zinc gulch]

oke! gotcha, thank you! and also thats not good (worse English haha) 😄

[marble roost]

Glad we could help!

[zinc gulch]

OK 1 more since youre all so kind: does the water rising also damage it beyond 50?

[viral cave]

Nope.

[subtle parrot]

No it stops at 50%

[zinc gulch]

Oh ok ok 1 more lol!!!

The water sometimes rises ..a LOT...are there places where this does not happen (impossible to make a dock if the water rises like 10meters* sometimes lol)

[sinful seal]

If there is a roof over it, water rising will not damage it at all either

[subtle parrot]

It will always happen like that at ocean level during storms

[zinc gulch]

dang okay that sucks 😮 so ships can hit the roof XD

[sinful seal]

Not if you make the roof really tall lol

[zinc gulch]

i will have to buy insurane i think!

[viral cave]

Building 6-8 meters above where the water level is during calm weather should be enough to keep the build dry during the roughest storms.

[zinc gulch]

LOL true..true...ok thanks!! a lot to think/replan 😄

EIGHT meters!??!!? thats....how do people get ''up'' there on calm weather XD?!?!

2 logs = 8m i think but thats soooo high to have as a platform woow

[viral cave]

That's more for houses. Docks are just gonna get wet no matter what you do.

[sinful seal]

You could put your roof up 8 meters from the dock, though, and the boat wouldn't damage it

[zinc gulch]

I understand its just i was making this and the flood happened..im trying to fix it 😄

[eternal pasture]

is there any strategy to farming or just cultivate a big area and just plant anything anywhere (i know some plants are biome specific, i wanted to make a big plains farm)

[zinc gulch]

maybe imma just ''ignore'' floods for now and just build a higher roof as you suggested and see what happens haha ;D thank you again

[subtle parrot]

Plants can't be within 1m of each other or walls or rocks and need to have clear skies with no tree branches hanging over the planting area

[marble roost]

ooh pretty

[zinc gulch]

thinking about it..nobody would unload their boat in storm ANYWAY so its not logical to build a floor at 8m high!

[viral cave]

Put a wall around the crops and spawn suppress the area with workbenches or torches, every mob and their mom will try to murder your crops if they're left out in the open

[marble roost]

Just make sure to fence it in and put up spawn protection within the area so mobs don't spawn and destroy stuff. Maybe you could even put up tiny stations around the field with a roof and a fire for the resting effect ("resting", not "rested"). That effect gives you 3x stamina regen, which is real helpful for getting your stamina back to max while planting

[viral cave]

The ||Hildir clothes|| help a lot as well

[eternal pasture]

can i spawn proof the ||tar swamps||? (i wasnt sure if i should spoil that)

[marble roost]

Yes, works the same as any other spawnproofing

[eternal pasture]

i see, thank you sooo much ^^

[keen tartan]

Can someone tell me what I am missing to make the Huntsman bow?? forge is upgraded, I have the items needed. I really feel like a moron cause I know im missing something stupid ????

[marble roost]

I would guess there's some weird modding messing thigns up here. 100 iron for a bow does not sound right

[stoic trench]

Are you holding shift? Looks like it’s trying to craft 5

[marble roost]

ohh good observation. Does holding shift make you craft more items?

[keen tartan]

that might have been from taking the screenshot

[stoic trench]

Yep! It’s a newer thing, you can craft 5 at a time now.

[keen tartan]

just checked, its 20 iron

[marble roost]

hmm other than that you should be able to craft it

[keen tartan]

thats what I thought.... ill try a game restart I guess... i thought i was missing something silly LOL

[marble roost]

Maybe try and relog

[tawny solar]

Oh yeah that should be it

[keen tartan]

will do.. thanks

Nope, game restart... still not able

Still says missing requirement

[stoic flume]

gg, all the work for a single black core

[tired root]

Do you have any mods in play?

[keen tartan]

no

[fervent birch]

Can we see another screenshot? Without the shift held?

[lilac coyote]

My money is still on mods.

[stoic trench]

~~Any mods? ~~Your screenshot appears to be stuck at ‘x 5’ 🤔

[fervent birch]

Hmmm.

[stoic trench]

You have a level 4 forge?

[keen tartan]

it says so... ive put the things down... and got the gold line

Even broke and placed the forge again.

[tired root]

Huntsman has lvl 1 requirement.

[stoic trench]

I saw that shortly after I said that, got a little confused

[keen tartan]

was gonna ask reddit, but thought this would be better

[stoic trench]

Tried dropping the mats and picking them back up?

[keen tartan]

not on the floor, but tried putting them back into chests

[tired root]

Have you mined and smelted them correctly? Not spawned?

[keen tartan]

i thought i kept a few spawned ones separate... but i can try that to be safe

[tired root]

If they don't register they might be corrupt, if you have spawned them incorrectly.

[keen tartan]

im also considering skipping Huntsman and just getting Draugr Fang instead..

[keen tartan]

ill try that. could be doing something wonky on the backend.

[tired root]

In case you need more details check here: #valheim-help message

Even more details here: #valheim-help message

[keen tartan]

ok. thanks for the help. might just go Draugr for the poison since this is giving me a prob.

[tired root]

You could try throwing the stack of iron on floor like MaCarBre wrote in one of those messages.

[drowsy crane]

I did some research, there are cases where people brought in a new character and it would work. In other cases just verifying the files through steam also fixed the issue.

[tepid valley]

Yeah ive gotten black cores, seallbreaker fragments, and made the structures. I just haven't made the ones that upgrade

[keen tartan]

I tried using the same iron for something else, and I was able to craft the sledge. Makes me feel like theres something else missing with the bow

[tepid valley]

What mistland gear are important priorities to make?

[marble roost]

Depends what you want. Personally I'd say armor is at the bottom of the priorities if you have like padded or fenris armor. One pretty favored item is the mistlands cape though

Weapons are good though, just depends on what weapons you like. And a cooking station for sure (requires ||black marble||)

[drowsy crane]

All crafting tables are important, you'll want 15 black cores, unless you're okay with juggling crafting stations with 5 black cores only.

[fierce venture]

the carapace buckler is arguably the best shield in the game

[tired root]

Weapons are good though

Except the 1h axe. 🥲

[tepid valley]

Ok, I'll look towards making that

[tepid valley]

The cape is the feather one right? Also I do have cooking station made!

[marble roost]

True

[tepid valley]

Yes, I am looking for more infested mines to get black cores

[marble roost]

One of the tables unlocks some pretty unique new weapons and utility items (which are all very strong)

[tepid valley]

I just hate going in and finding 1* seekers or soldiers and dont do any dmg to them. I end up camping at the entrance

[tepid valley]

Yeah I have the gautr table(idk the name) and the black forge table(also dont know the name). I have access to magic items and mistwalker weapons

[fierce venture]

ooze bombs are so clutch I used them in my last playthrough and it changed so much *in the infested mines

[marble roost]

Ooze bombs or bows do let you cheese things pretty easy. But if you wanna get in the thick of it it can be tough

[tepid valley]

Do the upgrades to the forges let me see more gear that I am missing or is it just the material?

[marble roost]

All recipes will unlock as long as you have the table and the ingredients the recipe requires I'm 99% sure.

Upgrades are just for levelling gear

[viral cave]

There's a few recipes that require upgrades to craft the lvl 1 version

[marble roost]

For mistlands items? I feel like Ashlands requires some upgrades but I don't remember the mistlands ones needing it.

Been a while since I've been playing mistlands tho

[viral cave]

Just looked, and blackmetal bolt is one such item

[tired root]

Seems funny to get bolt that has bit worse damage than carapace bolt at black forge level 2.

[viral cave]

Seems funny that a particular weapon in Ashlands does less fire damage than a torch.

There's more egregious examples of inconsistency than this I'm sure.

[warped light]

Any ideas why i am not unlocking all the recipes even though i have picked up the ingredients, because I have unlocked the kiln but not the smelter

[viral cave]

Any mods? Even seemingly simple QoL mods can hook into the game's code in unpredictable ways.

[warped light]

No mods at all, just a brand new game

Just beat the || Eikthyr ||

[true steeple]

Drop the ingredients, reload the game and pick them up again

[warped light]

okay i will try that, thank you

my friend did place it down, smelter but then removed it before i got on, wasnt sure if it was that

[viral cave]

So you're not seeing this anywhere in the hammer menu (crafting tab)?

[warped light]

nope its a blank slot

there is a gap, where it should be

[viral cave]

A gap? Try selecting that gap

There shouldn't be any gaps in the menu

[warped light]

hmm, okay i will try it when i get on,

[sacred hemlock]

hello, been a while since i played whats the most straight foward way to mod this is nexus ok or is there something better? just checking here to get the most up to date info! Thanks!!! 🙂

[lilac coyote]

The guys over at #mods-discussion will be able to help you better.

[sacred hemlock]

thx! 🙂

[wanton dock]

with the ask set, would a level 3 regular Splitnir do more damage than a level 2 Gemstone Splitnir?

[carmine talon]

is there any way to spawn proof an area without base structures?

like if i flatten some ground and cover it with wood floors, would that keep the occasional greylings from spawning (in meadows)

[drowsy crane]

Is there a reason you'd want to use a bunch of wood but not 10 for a workbench?

[carmine talon]

yes! i want to keep playerbase structures under 3 to prevent raids. 2 structures isnt enough to cover the whole area. this leaves only the wolf raid left and some have still manged to spawn inside the compound. so wondering if covering the floor with wood floors would stop that

[marble roost]

Nope. Only certain items like workbenches, campfires, torches, etc. spawnproof

And all of them are base items. The idea is that you're not really supposed to spawnproof something that isn't your base

There's an option to turn off raids completely though

[carmine talon]

i am not the server owner and i believe they wouldnt be up for that lol

but no worries, ty! lol

[small nest]

imo fenris armour is very outdated in mistlands, my friend had it on 3rd level and he was almost insta shot by most enemies, 2 top tier health food 1 top tier stamina

the fight with queen was rather interesting..

[frosty frost]

Fun fact, raid spawns are also affected by spawnproofing 😉 so if you spawnproof large enough area, even if the raid starts no enemies will spawn 😄

[chilly dragon]

About that... I'm not clear about the possibility of the raid area spawning at the edge of the spawnproofed area, and therefore spawning enemies. Will raid areas always spawn in the middle of the spawnproofed area?

[frosty frost]

The raids are centered around players current location 🙂

[chilly dragon]

So they could spawn at the edge and spawn enemies, if the player is too close to the edge

[frosty frost]

Yep, that is why i cover even areas pretty far from edges of my base in campfires 🙂

[chilly dragon]

I mean, I suppose you can look for a place where you can fully cover all of the legal spawning area in torches

[frosty frost]

Torches get attacked on sight tho 😄 campfires dont

[chilly dragon]

Apart from spawnproofing a large area, you can try to eliminate legal areas where a raid can spawn enemies

Iirc, with only a few exceptions, most need land to spawn enemies

[frosty frost]

That is what spawnproofing does tho

[chilly dragon]

So if the land is small enough, you can fully cover it in player_base, making it so there's no land nearby. Then it won't matter if you stand on the edge of the spawnproofed area, it's still not going to spawn

[frosty frost]

Yep

That is what i often use for plains farms, i find a little island, put like 4 workbenches around and i dont have to worry about enemies or raids bothering me there 🙂

[marble roost]

I’m a big fan of odder helmet, root harnesk, fenris legs. Should be something like 30 damage from a seeker

I run that combo on Vhard too, and even then it’s not a oneshot

But yeah running full fenris with only like 1 health food or something could be dangerous

[small nest]

root harnesk changes the mistlands' enemies damage by a lot thats a fact. my fella was running in full fenris with 2 health foods and still got wacked 😕. when i was in full padded seekers did around 30 damage to me

[marble roost]

Your buddy should stop using meadows foods / using triple stamina foods in the mistlands 😂

Even at lvl 1 fenris the max seeker damage is about 90. Unless you’re playing hard or vhard in which case yeah seekers hurt

[small nest]

no way, oh maybe my friend really was eating boar

[marble roost]

Still though I don’t hate the idea of full fenris in mistlands (maybe other than the helmet which feels semi useless?)

Can’t get one shot if you’re too fast too hit 😎
But flawless execution is a dangerous game

[jade olive]

Your much faster with it so you can out run any situation with ferris in the mistlands unless you get stuck or connered.

[marble roost]

Fenris + decent run skill + Eikthyr power goes hard

I'm running zero light armor right now and it feels soooo bad. Almost got enough fenris hair tho

[carmine talon]

While true, this poses two issues. Bat raid can still spawn (I have already triggered it). And it's just kinda a lot of work as I have to spam workbenches/campfires everywhere and wait and see if I missed a spot and try to find out where. And it needs to be a rather large area to be effective

[marble roost]

Think it's any flying raid really. Bat, Drake, Gjall

[carmine talon]

I do think it's different for the drakes and gjalls as I believe they need a surface to spawn on, although it's a certain height above that surface. Whereas bats can just spawn mid air I think. Idk I have an island base and drakes/gjalls don't spawn but bats do

[marble roost]

Ooh mistlands island base, sounds cool

[carmine talon]

I meant the raids for them xD. The base itself is on a meadows island but there is no land around it for a large distance

I've gotten pretty much every raid on it and the only one that spawns enemies are bats

[marble roost]

Well Gjall raid only triggers if your base is in mistlands...

[carmine talon]

Naw I don't think so lol. Ive seen them in other biomes

[frosty frost]

Those sound like 3 issues but yeah (tho i personally never had any bats spawning when i did it 🤔 ) tho if you are checking the ranges whenever you are placing a new workbench you can easily overlap them so you know there are no missed spots. 🙂 (and i personally switch workbenches for campfires after i check all the ranges)

[marble roost]

Hmm I've never seen Gjall raid outside of mistlands (without mods or devcommands). Wiki says its only active in mistlands

[frosty frost]

Yeah gjall raid is only in mistlands

[marble roost]

Protip to preventing raid enemies from spawning without needing an island base or spawnproofing:

Raid rate = no raids

[frosty frost]

We are circling a bit arent we? 😄 #valheim-help message

[carmine talon]

Idk says it can spawn in any biome lol

[marble roost]

it seems we are

[frosty frost]

This is for when the event already starts, meaning the biome requirement has already been met 🙂

[carmine talon]

Interesting. I swear I've seen the gjall raid in other biomes. Perhaps it is something that was changed? Or maybe I'm tripping lol

[frosty frost]

If it would be changed then it would have to be shortly after mistlands realease 🤔

[carmine talon]

Ahh probs just my brain mixing things up my b

[frosty frost]

No worries 😄

[carmine talon]

Well Ty guys for the help anyways. Tbh I'll probs still just stick with the 2 player base solution for now and deal with the wolves if they come xD

[marble roost]

Speaking of island bases, found this lil' old island with nothing but water in sight

Personally though I find island bases cool but impractical

[chilly dragon]

that's not an island, that's a rock, lol

[marble roost]

It's a rocky island

[chilly dragon]

an island has enough room to set up some kind of farming

this has no room at all for farming

[marble roost]

In my book an island is an island. If it can barely fit one person it's an island

But yeah it would be quite limiting as a base especially if you want your farm in the base

[jade rapids]

Raise ground?

[viral cave]

Even that has its limits, though. 8 meters to be exact.

[stoic trench]

No room at all for farming? I don’t know, looks farmable to me 🤔

[tacit breach]

Our current Mistlands farm is smaller than that rock. For a base, though, I'd have to be able to make it considerably bigger with raise ground. Which I have done, in the past. So it depends on how much of it has a shallow enough area around it for raise ground to work.

A possible base, like this, is why I save so much of my rocks from mining. I easily have 40 stacks of rock just at my base, for such possibilities. Plus probably nearly as much just sitting in old mine spots.

[small nest]

you technically could make a base off this, just make it a little bigger and build base structure with black marble, then stone, wood supported by iron bars and you could make a really good base

waste zero terrain, max out every inch and you'll be fine, oh and it will be aura farming for sure

[frozen cypress]

Help i encountered a bug where my drakkar is stuck to the bottom of the boiling ocean and me too

I'm trying devcommands to fix it but flying doesn't help it

Do i just respawn and try somthing else? If so, how do i off my own character?

[true steeple]

I've seen that issue affect others because of mods they were using, are you using any?

[frozen cypress]

Yeah. I have a longship upgrade mod which would be most relevant with it, but other than that it's QOL mods

[true steeple]

If any of those mods haven't been updated since the most recent patch they will likely be breaking things, and even if they have been updated there is still a chance they can cause problems. If any problems are still happening try asking about them in #mods-issues

[frozen cypress]

This keeps spamming my log

Could also be due to the floating items mod. But i'll just troubleshoot further till i find the culprit

[tired root]

https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599

[tired root]

That mod has been a culprit for that issue afaik, haven't used any by myself but seen and heard cases like that.

[frozen cypress]

Yeah, seems like it. It's all back to normal now, thanks!

[marble roost]

@quartz pier #screenshots message

It's just a decoration in the environment pretty much. It doesnt really do / contain anything

[quartz pier]

okay thanks

[tepid valley]

Is there a secret door on that structure that I need to get to? first time seeing it

[marble roost]

Oh man that looks like weird generation

Hard to see but yeah I think there's an interactable door thingy in there

If its hard to get to, maybe you can build some things to stand on (you can build some log benches and stuff inside dungeons)

[hybrid yacht]

hey how come this is still spawning dwarfs? it stopped for a while then when i dug out the floor it started again

[little zodiac]

i think it needs a certain amount of space around it to spawn, if you want to stop the spawning trying putting a floor back underneath it

[hybrid yacht]

it stopped again now for some reason so idk

[little zodiac]

the one i built in order to keep spawning needed to not have any roof over it and it couldnt have a floor under it

[little zodiac]

is this a game bug or something to do with mods? it keeps spamming the log

[chilly dragon]

If you're playing with mods, it's almost certainly the mods

[little zodiac]

k ill try without and check log after to see

[chilly dragon]

Mods aren't officially supported yet. So it's very likely that some mod is broken somewhere

[little zodiac]

probably but i wasnt sure on it, figured i'd ask

[chilly dragon]

I have recently played a little bit on a dedicated server I finally managed to get running on a pi, and I'm playing vanilla. Apart from some issues with garbage collection on the emulator I'm using, I haven't had any issues, certainly nothing like what you're experiencing

[little zodiac]

i "think" i know what mod it is and its just a dependency removing it solves a lot of the issue i have, which is mainly just fps

[iron talon]

I have this weird bug on my valheim server. I have wood in my inventory and I'm putting in the charcoal kiln, men it does not take from my wood in my inventory. Has anyone having this bug?

[shy jay]

Will bog witch spawn on a old server ( firelands era ) or i need to create a new one for her?

[lilac coyote]

If you have unexplored Swamp there's a chance for her to spawn there.

[shy jay]

Why cant i find Maypole in crafting? I tryed picking up all the nessesary items for it ( and a hammer ), but no use

[lilac coyote]

Because it's not Midsummer anymore.

[chilly dragon]

Maypole and yule tree are seasonal, based on the date.

[chilly dragon]

About how many days is it? Like 14?

[lilac coyote]

From the 1st of the month to the 6th of the following month.

[chilly dragon]

For both seasonals?

[lilac coyote]

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

[chilly dragon]

So about 35 days or so?

[lilac coyote]

All three, yeah.

[chilly dragon]

We totally need something for spring, lol

[lilac coyote]

I've been saying that for years.

[chilly dragon]

I'd suggest martenitsi, but they're slavic(Bulgarian), not Nordic.

And it's a month long celebration as is

You start wearing them on the first of March and are supposed to only take them off when you see a stork for the first time that year or on April 1st, whichever comes first

But it's not tied to a Nordic culture

[sturdy folio]

blank moment here, anyone know if the offshoots here count as the spawner or a seperate segment?

Since I can jump through them it seems they're part of the spawner itself

[frosty frost]

These are part of the spawner, but in the surroundings there are 3shoots a bit furher from the spawner that you can break and cannot go through. 🙂

[sturdy folio]

yeah, those are removed

all goods, thanking thee

I've really refined the mob spawning mechanics of the spawner

can share if interested

[frosty frost]

👀 do tell

[tired root]

Lots of pufferfish on the ground?

[sturdy folio]

minimised their spawning space - one brazier to kill them (fine tuning the not burning part)

[frosty frost]

Oooooh, very nice 😄 i usually just leave a large hole and dont bother with closing up the space they can spawn it xD

[sturdy folio]

smaller spawns = easier to collect loot and potentially speed up rate of spawns

[frosty frost]

Yep, but i just cant be bothered most of the time 😄

[proven nacelle]

Hi, I'm new here and to the game, I hope this is the right place for this. I came here wondering if anyone could help me. Yesterday I died in a dungeon in the black forest. I can't get past the skellies that are just camping right at my gravestone with all my stuff. The halls are so cramped, I can't kite them. I've tried to get past them a few times, and they just immediately murder me.

[fervent birch]

Have any back-up equipment?

[proven nacelle]

nope. I am just naked in the middle of the black forest

[fervent birch]

You might have to make some.

[fervent birch]

Are they just stuck in the hallway? They don't move towards you when you are down the hall from them?

[proven nacelle]

they come straight for me

but there is almost no room to maneuver in there

[fervent birch]

So you can kite to some degree?

Ahhh.

[proven nacelle]

yeah, but its just hallways, I'll always have to deal with them no matter how far I kite them

and the other way down the hall is a spawn point for them

[fervent birch]

Ohhh, that does complicate things.

Can you bow cheese them or do they have your bow?

[proven nacelle]

They have it all

weapons, troll hide armor, food, surtling cores

[knotty jetty]

is elder buff just for trees or logs and stumps too?

[true steeple]

I think it increases all chop damage (which will affect stumps) but I’ll have to test that later

[small nest]

enough to make it a power and enough to be concidered quite useless

[knotty jetty]

if im chopping for 20 min might aswell use it

[tired root]

You gotta make some gear then. Club, torches and fire arrows are effective as they are weak against blunt and fire damage. You might need a new bow too, crude requires some wood and scraps so not too expensive.

Or if you have gathered core wood, scraps and deer trophies you can make Stagbreaker.

[stoic trench]

Maybe throw a shield in that list too 🤔
Also, once you successfully pick up your grave, you get a nice defense buff that will help you survive. So don’t be afraid to rush in and grab it.

[smoky acorn]

@copper vine using in-game server or Dedicated Server? And using Crossplay or not?

And how is she connecting? Steam invite? Loopback IP address? LAN IP address? External IP address? Crossplay Join Code? Community servers tab?

[copper vine]

I'm using in-game server, and I tried with and without crossplay. She connected by clicking on my world in "Friends" and with the password

Oh now my game appear in the list but she has something like "unable to connect" in english I think

I tried with the LAN IP address, same result

It's like the server is not launching correctly, when I'm in the game, if i press "escape", everything is paused like when you play in solo mode

[smoky acorn]

If you've recently switched Crossplay off, the prior Crossplay registration can still be shown to the other player in Friends and their connection attempts will fail until the old Crossplay registration expires and the other play has refreshed/restarted. One way to work around this quickly is to use a different port following the switch.

Connecting with LAN IP (e.g. 192.168…) is also a viable option but is only possible when Crossplay is disabled and when both players are using the Steam version of the game. This will be fast/reliable connectivity when it works.

[ornate finch]

Don't use friends list on this game version, as it can lead to throttling your connection and make connecting impossible for the next 20sec. Use favourites tab or Steam invites while the other person waits in the character selection screen. Diable crossplay if you are both on Steam.

[copper vine]

Thank You I will try

[gleaming sun]

is there a commands to summon mobs with stars? like a lvl 2 troll

[lilac coyote]

Spawn.

[copper vine]

It works with steam invites ! Thanks you ♥️

[frosty frost]

Spawn troll 1 2

[tawny solar]

How many sealbreaker fragments do I need to make sealbreaker?

[lilac coyote]

9

[tawny solar]

Thank you very much

[floral nacelle]

hey im trying to transfer over a world so my friend can host instead of me but in the video im watching it sais transfer the worlds files where he has multiple i only have one file however my worlds local has multiple which files should i transfer or what am i doing wrong i have tried transfering the local file but it didnt work for my friend???

basically i dont see the db. and fwl. files at all

[lilac coyote]

Are your worlds in the cloud perhaps?

[frosty frost]

Go into your game, go to "manage saves" and there pick the world save you want and click on the "move to local" option 🙂

[livid quail]

Hello! I apologize, but where can I read the patch notes for the latest update of the Valheim dedicated server? I can't find it anywhere, and I'm afraid to break our family modified server with this update.

[jade rapids]

Have you checked the pinned comment in #dedicated-server ?

[livid quail]

I see only two:
And none of them are related to the latest update - or am I looking in the wrong place?

[jade rapids]

The pdf and wiki are the only documentation regarding dedicated server

[marble roost]

Found this one for you instead

[jade rapids]

I'm curious: Are you asking about the update just pushed on Steam for App 896660, Valheim Dedicated Server? Because I've never seen such patch notes

[lilac coyote]

Which update, incidentally?

[livid quail]

Yes, and yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about.

It's always sad how empty it is here.

[lilac coyote]

The game itself gets them too. They're not real updates (otherwise you'd have patch notes like in #valheim-patchnotes ) and therefore won't break your server.

[livid quail]

Oh, that's good, thanks! Could you also tell me if it would be enough to make a backup of the batch file + BepinEx folder + server_Data folder to avoid overwriting during such updates?

[lilac coyote]

I can't comment on mods, though obviously they'll cause issues with any update.

Backups are always a good idea.

[livid quail]

Well, thanks for that, Derek, eeh.
I think I'll hold off on updating for now, since it's not critical, but it does carry the risk of breakage.

[jade rapids]

No. I don't think Valheim got this update:

[hybrid yacht]

whats the best way to get a lot of stone fast bros?

[frosty frost]

Go mine Cooper, that way you get 2 in 1

[hybrid yacht]

i guess so

[marble roost]

I’d say cutting down the big stone pillars in the plains, or maybe mining rocks in the mountains

Think you can also cut down some mistlands pillars similar to plains ones

[fervent birch]

You can also tear down ruins.

[tired root]

Silver also.

[stoic trench]

I just go to the Black Forest and mine stone there, I’m lazy lol

[quasi vault]

Best way to get a ton of stone is to take a little bit of time to portal home the stone you get from mining copper and silver and just build dozens of stack of stones on top of one another for when you will need stones

[hybrid yacht]

yea been doing that but im predicting i will need

A LOT OF stone, even though i have like 50 stacks rn

[still blaze]

Is there a way to duplicate worlds and characters?

[snow narwhal]

The Worlds Local folder is where your World Saves are. It is a pair of files that end in .db and .fwl. If you want to ensure you are safe due to game updates, copy your entire game folder into another folder. You can play directly from that folder without concern of it being updated.

[chilly dragon]

i mean, it's not fast, but it is lazy: you can build a hole below a greydwarf spawner in the black forest, fill it with wolves, then periodically go down yourself to collect the drops.

that will provide you with a supply of wood, stone, and eyes, along with some dandelions, bukeperries, and other stuff

[hybrid yacht]

just finished doing that, just with braziers

[frozen cypress]

Audio glitches and cutting only appear in the ashlands for me, i have good headphones, idk if it's due to some internal audio configuration or something. Or maybe the amount of noises coupled with the music is the cause? The glitching isn't frequent, but in prolonged combat the audio sometimes starts bugging on hits

[tired root]

It's known issue and afaik the problem is in the game engine, not in Valheim itself. It's dependant on when the bug in the engine gets fixed.

[short ravine]

My friend said his gf lost her character when switching computers through cloud save. Anyone know what might have happened? I'd like to avoid that too lol

[twin trail]

so trying to take down my first troll and could use a little help as so far i havent faired too well

[quiet wagon]

how long before my boars begin to make more boars

[small nest]

From what ive seen probably 30 minutes or something like that

[small nest]

Crude bow with flint Arrows works decent, although i prefer close combat with your knive and spear. Its huge risk tho so i dont recommend it

[west cedar]

I'm preparing to fight Moder but my arena is kinda ass. Is this enough or should I look for another one? I've seen some of the fight and it seems like I could use some more space.

The worst part is that its on a steep cliff that goes pretty far down.

[tired root]

Not too bad IMO.

[west cedar]

alright Ill try it out then

[amber sapphire]

would anyone be willing to help me get my body back? its stuck in a Iron crypt guarded by a 2 star elite

[sleek sentinel]

Hey everyone im preparing to fight Moder but am having a little bit of trouble didn't know if anyone was willing to help

[cosmic mesa]

I can later today if you still need help by then.

[sleek sentinel]

okay sounds good im gonna craft some mead and food in the meantime

[twin trail]

I was using crude bow and flame arrows but for a big guy he sure can move - not getting enough time to breath it would seem - ive tried stopping and timing a dodge but so far he has just laughed at me

[small nest]

stamina management for blue guy is key - eat as much stamina food as you can, since most of the time he'll one shot you

[twin trail]

Yea Im using the Deer Power Boost even

[small nest]

flat terrain help a lot, you can get him from black forest to meadows so the blue dwarves dont interrupt the fight

[twin trail]

ahhhh good idea

[fiery blaze]

Still need help?

[gleaming sun]

can i remove water if im digging down

[twin trail]

To my knowledge no

[gleaming sun]

dang

[lapis terrace]

nope

the water is a constant field that covers the engire world map

[gleaming sun]

i wanted to make a base under the elder, but theres water underneath, guess im gonna make a new world

[lapis terrace]

under water?

shouldn't be possible anymore

[jade rapids]

I guess the alter was low and close to the water line, not under water.

[lapis terrace]

that's possible tho

[gleaming sun]

yeah

[lapis terrace]

it use to be able to spawn under the waterline 😄

[jade rapids]

There are multiple number of each boss alter in every world

[lapis terrace]

but we changed the minimum requirement for spawning height

[jade rapids]

And for that we all are thankful 🙂

[reef narwhal]

Can someone explain the cartography table please, I read what the crow said but still really dont understand its use

[lapis terrace]

it's for multiplayer

you write to it, and your friends can copy your map and add it to theirs

and the oposite of course

[reef narwhal]

Ohhh ok thank you, also for big builds like villages I put a level 1 workbench and stonecutter in the places to expland the building plot slightly right?

[lapis terrace]

as long as you first "write" to it, and then read from it

[reef narwhal]

Oh dope, I play singleplayer so itll be useless for me but its a nice decoration

[lapis terrace]

any addon will push add more build distance

[jade rapids]

It has 2 different interaction "boxes". One for copy your map to the table, and one for reading everything someone else has copied to the table

[lapis terrace]

yeah. in singleplayer, it's basicly a cool looking table 😄

but it's handy if you play multiple characters on the same world yourself

[reef narwhal]

Yea but the addons have weird placing problems where they cant be too close together and it gets messy, plus I just needed a small increase so I can place my kitchen build lmao

[jade rapids]

But still helpful if you play NoMap in Singleplayer?

[lapis terrace]

remember you can hide addons under the floor or up in the roof 😄

[reef narwhal]

Oh they dont need line of sight?

[jade rapids]

Nope

[reef narwhal]

Oh dope

Is there any way to make the zone lines always appear even without the hammer out

[lapis terrace]

no no. look at the golden-glitter-line-thingy

if it's not pointinging to the sky, it's fine

[gleaming sun]

is there only one elder spawner location or are there multiple always available?

[shadow osprey]

Multiple

[subtle parrot]

Multiple for all of them, 3 eikthyr 4 elder 5 bonemass 3 moder 4 goblin kings 5 queens

[gleaming sun]

ok

[subtle parrot]

And you can summon more than one at a time if you want to from the same alter

#mods-issues

[rare wolf]

oh thanks mb

[azure kestrel]

An easy way to fight the Moder would be to dig a circular tunnel around/beneath the Moder platform. This way you can hide in there and attack the Moder from there, which is very convenient. We defated the Moder this way with party of two. See picture.

[west cedar]

I know. But I wanna experience everything vanilla no exploits :p But if I get destroyed I'm surely whipping it out.

[azure kestrel]

Good luck!

[west cedar]

Thank you I feel like I'm gonna need it 😭

[azure kestrel]

yeah, depends on now many of a party you are with.

[west cedar]

Only me :,)

[azure kestrel]

OK, I'll admire you.

[small nest]

i dont remember much from her bossfight but i remember that running is really helpful, dont block her attacks, just take cover when needed or run

i had no issues with running in wolf armour + gear

[west cedar]

yeah I have some Ratatosk and stamina potions ready so I should be fine. I just want to upgrade some of my weapons and im good.

[arctic jewel]

Hi all! is there someone that can help me getting thru the mistlands? 🙂

[short ravine]

You're willing to deal with no ore through portal?! That was the biggest problem I had lol

[west cedar]

Yeah tbh I don't find it that bad. If you transport the ore down the mountain into chests incrementally and onto a boat then its aight.

[short ravine]

Well from the Mountain perspective yeah slide it down, never thought of that lol, though i had the problem with copper and tin bc the forest was kinda far away. I was not making 30 minute trips

Id be afraid the cart crashes on the way down and all the ore goes flying

[west cedar]

Yeah that was annoying but the cart helps. Tbh I was scared too but you'd be surprised at how well the card goes down a mountain.

[short ravine]

Do u control while going down or load it and push it off the edge and meet it later

[west cedar]

I control it and it's pretty stable.

[short ravine]

I wonder if you could ||launch yourself with the catapult|| to transport ore lol, idk if that needed spoilers

[west cedar]

Nah. But I think you could. I haven't gotten that far to test it but I'll keep that in mind xd

[short ravine]

My friend showed me and you go really far tbh

If the catapult is aligned right

[west cedar]

You just need to get the feather cloak so you don't die to fall damage.

[short ravine]

Yeah i just beat Bonemass and I believe my friend said capes in Mistlands

[west cedar]

Yup. Not looking forward to that. I'm scared of the skill check.

[short ravine]

Seems everyone isnt a fan xD, i have yet to experience Mist

[west cedar]

Be sure to stock up on stamina foods and use the huntsman bow.

[short ravine]

Just made that i believe, thats the 20 iron one?

I also have extra stam foods set aside thats meant for fishing lol

[west cedar]

Yeah. Its pretty quiet so you won't get spotted that easily

[short ravine]

Bows affect stealth? Huh

[west cedar]

Yeah. You really don't want to get spotted there.

At least for first contact

[short ravine]

Is it worse than messing up.and being in the swamp.at night?

[west cedar]

From what I've heard and seen yes. I can't say though since I haven't gotten there yet.

But the swamp at this point for me is pretty easy.

[true steeple]

All bows have the same alert radius except for huntsman bow which is smaller

[zinc gulch]

does stone always crumble instantly under water?

[short ravine]

Ive never tried, what are you placing made of stone?.

[gleaming sun]

when my carrot is grown is there gonna be an interact button to get it or not cuz idk

[short ravine]

Instead of saying Healthy it will say Pick Up

[gleaming sun]

ok thanks

[short ravine]

Does each biome have its own crop to find and plant?

[frosty frost]

Most do 🙂

All except meadows really, tho maybe honney could be counted too

[cosmic mesa]

I like to count honey tbh
It definitely feels the the "Meadows farmable item"

[frosty frost]

Yep, each biome has a thing you can farm 😄

[tired root]

Beehives can also be found in black forest.

But mostly in meadows, yeah.

[frosty frost]

True, but they are quite rare there 😄
Similarly, i think most people think of core wood as a BF resource, but you can still rarely find it in meadows 🙂

[stoic trench]

I think it’s that kind of synergy between the two biomes that makes the transition/early game feel so good

[zinc gulch]

im trying to just make a wall under water as foundation (stone wall 4x2)

[frosty frost]

It needs to be touching the seabed

[fiery blaze]

If it's too deep you may have to use the fly command and place it blindly

[elder glacier]

So all of a sudden my game has become super 'laggy' - it is hard to describe, but it is like verything happens in slow-motion. I have never had this issue before. I have tried to decrease every single graphics-setting to no avail. It is a trippy experience.
I know my computer can handle the game on the current settings, as I have 280 hours on steam, and some more from the time the game was on game-pass.
It all started after a windows-update two(?) days ago.
I have tried reinstalling the game, updating drivers etc.
It is like my graphics-card won't 'boot up' - and yes I have tried other more demanding games, and they all work and send my card on overdrive.
You might get an idea from the attached screenshot. But again it is super hard to explain. Oh and the boot up of the game is also extremely slow now.

[viral cave]

1. Boot up Valheim
2. Go into task manager, find the game, right click, Open file location
3. Get the path of said file, go into settings, graphics settings, add an app, browse, add that path as a file
4. change GPU to dedicated GPU

This happened to me once with a bunch of games

If that doesn't work, try toggling between Vulkan and the other option for graphics on the Valheim page in Steam

[elder glacier]

Just tried both of your suggestions, but no go. Thank you. I just noticed that when I enter a World, it starts with a little timelapse of the sun rising. No matter what time I have logged out of said World.
Oh and yes I have also tried reinstalling and confirm the integrity.

[fiery blaze]

Have you tried creating a new world? Without mods

[tawny solar]

Which is better, bonemass power or the queen power

[true steeple]

Queen power can be more useful if you’re using magic weapons because of the eitr regen, and because damage modifiers don’t do anything with the staff of protection. Otherwise Bonemass would generally be more useful but Eikthyr is a good choice too.

[tawny solar]

Thank you very much

[austere adder]

hey im trying to host a server with the steam tool but the moment i add the mods it doesnt generate the world files. it works in singleplayer using r2modman but when i add it to the plugins folders in the dedicated server it doesnt work at all. i understand there might be issues with the mods running in a no gui environment but it works perfectly in singleplayer so maybe theres something i can do without removing all the important mods (besides hosting it in game obviously)

[frosty frost]

Folks in #mods-discussion or #mods-issues will probably be able to help you 😄

[austere adder]

thx ill repost there

[cerulean yoke]

Once your tool breaks what do you do with it? ;/

[frosty frost]

You repair it in workbench 😉

[cerulean yoke]

Oki thx you ;)

I'm having trouble rotating my walls :(

[frosty frost]

Mouse wheel dosent work? 🤔

[mighty ermine]

I am trying to join my wife world. We have not played in a couple months but we are building a castle together. We both have the same version of the game and both on computer with steam. She has made the game and put in the password for the server to connect us. Once i go into the world it keeps kicking me out not prompting the passworld saying "failed to connect".

Does anyone have an suggestions?

[cerulean yoke]

I'm on steam deck ;/

[reef narwhal]

Im having an issue where items dont auto pickup, ive tried restarting and it didnt work either

[cerulean yoke]

i think you have to pick it up piece by piece :|

at least thats what im doing on steam deck ;/

[reef narwhal]

No no theres an auto pickup lmao

[cerulean yoke]

there is? :O

[frosty frost]

On keyboard the default key to toggle the autopickup is V iirc

[reef narwhal]

Thanks

I play controller but have a keyboard plugged in

[reef narwhal]

Whats the spawn radius of a sertling spawner

[lilac coyote]

Spawn radius?

[frail cave]

it doesn't function like greydwarf nests or bodypiles in the sense that surtling geysers have 3 individual invisible spawners around them that respawn their surtling every 5 minutes, there's no variation in where they spawn relative to the geyser

it should be easy to check where the 3 spawn by spawnproofing the area for 5+ minutes so that the spawners are ready to spawn their enemy and then removing the spawnproofing object to spawn the enemies in on demand so you can see where they spawn

[karmic lion]

Did i just waste resorces ??? i made a klassen and Storm fang bow Lvled them but .... but i can't get them passed lvl 2 ? ? i just read that you have to make the first metal weps then upgrade those to max then add the gems ? is this true ?

[clever juniper]

no, you did it the best way

once you infuse a gem, it would take a lvl1 or lvl 3 weapon and bring it back to 1

[karmic lion]

then why can i not upgrade them to lvl 3 ?

AI Overview
To upgrade the Storm Fang bow to level 3 in Valheim, you need to upgrade the base bow, Ash Fang, to level 3, then use Iolite to upgrade it to Storm Fang, and finally use the Workbench to upgrade it to level 3. The level 3 upgrade for Ash Fang requires 25 Ashwood, 46 Charred bone, 20 Flametal, and 20 Bonemaw tooth, according to the Valheim Wiki. this is what the AI thing said

[reef narwhal]

What gear would y’all recommend for first ever bonemass fight?

[fierce venture]

Iron mace, poison resist pot, root harnesk. It’s not a hard fight tho, he has like 1 physical attack, the adds are all weak to blunt, his poison attack is essentially negated with resist pot. Just remember to flatten out the area.

[haughty inlet]

hey, does anyone know how to build this kind of roof?

[silver storm]

Thanks for asking!,

no

[cloud lichen]

that looks to be a build part that can only be used with mods. if not, try connecting 45 degree roofs at their tops, and then overlap their lower sections. it turns out fairly circular. sorry if this isn't helpful

[frail cave]

looks to me like a whole lot of regular 45° roof pieces clipped into each other in a circle but i could be seeing it wrong

[haughty inlet]

thanks! cant seem to figure it out but im happy with this 🙂

[ornate finch]

Tell your wife to disable crossplay for your world before starting it as a server.
Then to send you a Steam invite while you wait in the character selection screen.

[lilac coyote]

Because you need a level of forge that isn't available yet. I'd caution you away from using AI. It's invariably wrong.

[tired root]

Oh no, don't trust AI, instead ask here or search from wiki. The levels of basic Flametal weapons do not carry their level to the gem variant weapons, they start at level 1 again.

So you kinda like wasted some flametal upgrading your weapon to level 3 and by using it as ingredient to the gem variant.

[lapis terrace]

AI straight up lies if they can't find the correct information 😄

[cedar quarry]

Can someone tell me why my house gets water damage its all wood and i have a roof

[fiery blaze]

Is your roof floor boards?

[cedar quarry]

idk what thats called

but its from hay

basically everything along with outer walls first and second floor's floor is getting damage

[fiery blaze]

No idea. I would rebuild the roof again making sure it snaps right

[cedar quarry]

everything snaps

[fiery blaze]

Snaps right with the wall. It happened once to me. Turns out i forgot i built the house during rain and never got around to fixing it

[cedar quarry]

where is it supposed to snap if not on the wall?

is there a particular order i have to line up all consecutive roof tiles

the problem might be from the corner pieces i have corner roof over corner roof

[fiery blaze]

If the first corner is snapped correctly adding more shouldn't be the issue

I would redo it. There's no other way to solve it regardless of what's causing it

[cedar quarry]

everything looks good to me

all corners cannot be snapped any other way, i just removed it and placed it again, and all 4 corners are identical

even if i redo it ill redo it the same way if i don't know the reason for this behaviour

[fiery blaze]

Maybe that's all it takes if it's a bug

[cedar quarry]

is this correctly anchored?

well i redid i hope it doesnt ruin my house again

[long bay]

hey, my friend has problems with the game fps, we played it earlier this year and everything went well but now somehow he can only get like 15-25 fps, any ideas about what happens?

[fierce venture]

boar farm is really only useful for sausage and feeding wolves for skewers

[craggy perch]

Little question, you reckon if I spawnproof an island in the middle of the ocean, I can prevent raids? (Not including flying unit raids)

[lilac coyote]

It can be done, yes.

[craggy perch]

game just crashed while I was in water and all my shit is gone, crying

[sleek sentinel]

looking for help with the Moder boss fight if anyone is available

[tired root]

Load up backup save before crash.

[sleek storm]

Does anyone know a way to change the difficulty on a dedicated server? Changing the .bat on the host machine appeared to do nothing. Even after restart.

[fierce venture]

It’s in the pdf. Can you post your batch script (censoring any personal information like names/ip)?

[sleek sentinel]

can someone please help me with this i dont have anyone else to play with

moder that is

[fierce venture]

I’ll fight moder with you, but the fight isn’t too difficult I think you could do it yourself. What gear should I use?

[sleek storm]

@fierce venture

Raids feel unchanged from our previous setting from the hard preset.

[lilac coyote]

Feels or is?

[sleek storm]

I tried a normal preset as well and it changed neither raids or combat difficulty. Both were on hard.

[sleek sentinel]

i have mostly iron armor but all bronze weapons i've been using a bow and arrow trying to take him down but have had issues with the other mobs that spawn around

[sleek storm]

@lilac coyote Is

[lilac coyote]

Well, the settings look fine in your bat.

[sleek storm]

I think so too, but it changes nothing in the game. I'm not sure why.

[fierce venture]

but portals say Blocked when you try to go through them?

[sleek storm]

Yes, however that was a setting I had originally as well. The issue seems to be that things aren't updating.

I think I gotta experiment more. Maybe remove all modifiers and then readd them one by one.

[reef narwhal]

Any idea why nothing spawn?

[sleek storm]

@reef narwhal Do you have a crafting table nearby? They prevent spawns in their radius.

[lilac coyote]

Among many other items. What is in that building?

[reef narwhal]

OHHHH

Should I just remove the crafting table and keep the portal

[sleek storm]

Yes the crafting table most definitely, but the portal may prevent spawns as well, I'm not sure actually

[reef narwhal]

Hm

[frosty frost]

Place a workbench where you can see that the build radius doesent cover the area around geysir and on that pláče build a portal 🙂

[reef narwhal]

Ight dope

Clearing the swamp is just the hard part lmao

[jade rapids]

So... This happen:
I was stupid and spawned in with devcommands
spawn TarLiquid 1
Now I have tar boiling around my base, and a nearby river/stream.

Any suggestion to how I can fix this? Reverting to older world copy are out of the question.

[tacit breach]

Most of your world copies should only be a few hours old. You did things that recently that you don't want to lose?

[jade rapids]

It happen 30 game hours ago.

[tacit breach]

Ah, yeah, thats likely too old. Have you looked at their time stamps?

[jade rapids]

It's out of the question.

[tacit breach]

Well, I am no expert on dev commands, so I am out of ideas.

[flint sinew]

hello there wondering if anyone could help me with valheim connection problems

[tacit breach]

Even the people who know far more than I do will need some more details about what is going on.

[reef narwhal]

@sleek storm @frosty frost sorry for ping but thanks guys i got it working

[sleek storm]

Np glad to hear

[marble igloo]

does time of day matter in the mistlands for creature spawning?

[frail cave]

yes, https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_zones has the details

[zinc gulch]

what should I improve on my dock?! its my first one because I finally found stone blocks!! any tips how to make it better or more pretty? 🙂

[marble igloo]

thx

[reef narwhal]

Is there certain spawn conditions for turnip seeds, ive traveled the entirety of a swamp and half of another cant find even one

[lilac coyote]

Not particularly, just in Swamps. They can be a little tricky to spot compared to carrots.

[reef narwhal]

I seriously dont knwo how I cant find any, its crazy

[tacit breach]

They have to spawn on land, so with water being so prevalent in swamps, you can have entire swamps with no flowers.

Your best bet is to find the larger swamps. More land, higher chance of flowers.

[frail cave]

between the swamp's darker lighting and the turnip seeds' more subtle appearance compared to carrot seeds, they can be quite hard to find

[tacit breach]

Yeah, they are not easy to spot, either. Still, I run entire swamps with the dvergr head lamp, and still find smaller swamps completely devoid of flowers. Only the larger swamps are any kind of guarantee.

[frail cave]

oh yea didn't mean to imply otherwise, sorry

[tacit breach]

Then again, I found 5 flowers ina smallish swamp. Gotta love randomness.

[tacit breach]

No problem. I know you well enough. 😄 Your my favorite scribe of Valheim.

[frail cave]

-# awwwh thank you! 🖤

[marble igloo]

How do you make the sap extracor? I got the Yggrasil wood, the dverger extractor and black metal but didnt get the recipe?

[tacit breach]

I presume your still placing a work bench?

[marble igloo]

yea

[tacit breach]

No idea, you have the mats, for sure. I can't recall if you have to have one, or both, of the new tables, first. Been over a year since I last had to place those.

[frail cave]

and you're looking in the "crafting" tab of the hammer's build menu right?

[marble igloo]

works now, thx

[tacit breach]

I guess it was a matter of proper placement.

[deep needle]

how strong do i need to be to defeat the first boss?

[daring shard]

Suddenly out of nowhere my controller input started having issues. Not sure what is going on. I tried messing with steam input settings and what not... nothing seems to help

For example when im trying to move forward, it randomly stops and I have to move the joystick again
... I should really be playing on keyboard but rn this is a product of my setup location and I don't have a lot of choice to not use a controller

[marble igloo]

depending on your knowledge and skill you basically dont need anything. If you are new it would be recommended to craft yourself the flint spear and deer hide armor. Also get some proper food like cooked boar, deer and raspberries

[deep needle]

basically brand new. 2,5 hours into the game and currently just figuring out how it works

[frosty frost]

Of you can get honey that would be great 😄

[deep needle]

damn the boss dont despawn when you die?

spawn camping'like crazy

[marble igloo]

nope

[fervent birch]

Rude deer imo.

[deep needle]

its a evil beast

[true steeple]

Rolling grants immunity from most attacks, now would be a good time to try it

[deep needle]

rolling?

bruh didnt even know it existed

[true steeple]

I didn’t know it did anything until much later in the game

[daring shard]

Now im getting raided by trolls and cant even use my controller 😒

[silver storm]

Which one is better the blackmetal sword, OR the mistwalker sword for the queen/mistlands

TELL ME PLEASE

[true steeple]

Mistwalker will be better, it has higher total damage and the enemies there are less resistant to its damage types.

[silver storm]

Hmmm

[true steeple]

It’s also very useful in the next biome since only one enemy there resists it

[silver storm]

BUT the black metal sword makes more dmg…

Is it still better

[true steeple]

Black metal sword has 95 slash
Mistwalker has 75 slash + 40 frost for 115 total damage

[silver storm]

Oh ok, thanks for the help!

I didn’t know lol

[deep needle]

trees do collatoral damage against eachother?

[lapis terrace]

yes they do

[deep needle]

thats honestly pretty amazing

do trees also grow back on stumps?

[reef narwhal]

When fighting bonemass if you enter a burial will he despawn, found one nearby and want to know if I can use it as a breather room if I start to struggle

[viral cave]

No. You can plant seeds though.

[true steeple]

Bosses can’t despawn

[reef narwhal]

So lets say im fighting it I get low and run inside itll just wait outside

[tacit breach]

Set up a fire inside, it helps you recover faster and regain the rested modifier if you lose it.

He will still be out there, though.

Not necessarily right on top of you, but some where near by.

[deep needle]

how long does a thunder storm last?

[tacit breach]

That varies. Unless your talking what a boss causes. That remains until they are defeated.

None of them cause a storm, from what I can recall.

[deep needle]

why are these grandpa dwarfs just killing me over and over again out of nowhere at my base its crazy

[tacit breach]

Probably the forest is rising event. Is there a red cirlce on your map?

[deep needle]

nope

[tacit breach]

Then your just close to the Black Forest, and its night time.

[deep needle]

could be

[reef narwhal]

Ok dope also how much of an area should I flatten for his fight

[tacit breach]

Base defense is something you will want to get very good at as the game progresses.

[deep needle]

i a stake wall around my village good?

[tacit breach]

Thats up to you.

[reef narwhal]

Hm

[tacit breach]

Initially, but eventually you will deal with worse and worse.

Two of the best defenses is digging a nice deep ditch, or raising a nice impervious dirt wall with your hoe's raise ground function.

[deep needle]

good to know

[drowsy crane]

Stake walls are a great starting point , but you'll want to upgrade your walls overtime, you could dig a trench like the above suggests, but that really just breaks NPC pathing and negates raids being a problem which can make you worse at dealing with them.

[deep needle]

yeah i just repaired like a tiny village with 4 huts and some farming ground even though i cant plant anything dont know how that works yet

[tacit breach]

Yeah, they don't work against the fliers, but those are the least dangerous events as well. They just kill your domesticated boar, etc... if you do not keep them inside of enclosed buildings.

[drowsy crane]

Imo if you dig a trench and do everything to negate enemies' approach, you might as well just turn raids off.

[tacit breach]

Why? I look at them as mats free delivery services.

[deep needle]

prolly only good for a 100% safe house

[drowsy crane]

It is just my opinion, the mats you get from enemies that don't know where to go are minimal compared to an actual focus on farming.

[tacit breach]

Yeah, I only do it for my actual home. I like to sleep safely. 😄

[drowsy crane]

The time spent cheesing a raid could net you 3x the materials on an actual focused gathering trip.

[tacit breach]

The time spent on not rebuilding my base more than makes up for that.

[drowsy crane]

Hence my point on just turning it off, you're not interested in the base defense.

[true steeple]

Enemies only destroy what gets between them and their target, they won't break your base if you don't let them.

[deep needle]

also how can i start planting crops?

[drowsy crane]

The cultivator is what you'll need

[tacit breach]

I've played this game for over 4500 hours, your not telling me anything new. You play your way, I'll play mine.

[deep needle]

do i get it from searching?

[drowsy crane]

Oh I wasn't telling you

[true steeple]

You can find carrot seeds as white flowers in black forest biomes. By progressing through the black forest you should eventually unlock the recipe for the cultivator.

[tacit breach]

You need bronze and hard wood, so some searching is needed to get those mats.

Plus, yeah, the flowers too. Fortunately there are tons more of those in the current version of the game.

They used to be much harder to come across.

The materials you'll need and how to use it can be found here. This wiki is fantastic.

[deep needle]

ty for the help 💪

[foggy gyro]

i died in water where does my tombstone go

does it sink or float?

[true steeple]

They float on water

[foggy gyro]

its not there idk whats happened with my stuff then lol

[true steeple]

You can load a backup of your character with the manage saves button on character select if you're sure the grave disappeared. It's there for problems like this.
Did you close the game immediately after dying? That can cause saving problems.

[reef narwhal]

Does using one meed disable another meed?

[viral cave]

Nope.

[reef narwhal]

Ok dope

[tired root]

You can use any mead at the same time with others, only exceptions are hp and stamina meads that get cooldown after use which prevents using another of the same type until the cooldown runs out.

[sleek dock]

What and where am I suppose to be going is there a quest log

[true steeple]

In the top right corner of the screen while your inventory is open, there is an icon of a bird that shows previously read messages from Hugin. These will explain what you need to do.

[zinc gulch]

Any1 know why 1 player cant see my ping? She can see other pings 😮 !

[spark surge]

the quick summary is: explore biome, beat biome boss, prepare for next biome, explore, boss, prepare etc

[sleek dock]

Thanks

[deep needle]

how do i get surtling core early on?

[fierce venture]

||burial chambers in the black forest, skeletons spawn near them||

[short ravine]

Any tips for Immersive?

[tacit breach]

If others can see you, no. Otherwise, you have yet to make yourself visible on the map.

[potent hatch]

installed valheim plus but i get a red exlamation mark window and then nothing

[tacit breach]

That is a mod, correct? If so, #mods-issues

[waxen mango]

hey guys so i have some boar i tamed kinda far from my base and harpoon doesnt seem to work anymore, is there efficient way to get them back?

nvm i turned friendly fire on an it worked lol

[zinc gulch]

dang, like everyone except my gf can see my ping ...and we can see hers

[tacit breach]

Yeah, I have never seen that problem. Any of you have active VPN's? Like I would guess you do. That can interfere, but it usually interferes badly enough you can't even play.

[zinc gulch]

so weird nah man no tech savvy persons here so not at all got vpn haha 😦

[tacit breach]

Yeah, I use a VPN, but I disconnect it when I play on servers.

[cedar quarry]

how do i collect the result from the fermenter?

do i need a container of some kind

ah nvm i guess it doesnt

[tired root]

Just click E when possible, fermenting takes 1,5-2 ingame days.

[cedar quarry]

yeah yeah, i was worried it would just drink everything up if i dont have a container

[reef narwhal]

How do you fix this? (Sign colors not working)

[tired root]

Yeah, no need to worry about that when you get itemised meads.

[cloud lichen]

i don't think you can colour signs.... (turns out you can, maybe check one of the bugs channels)

[cedar quarry]

What do you mean? I did color my signs

[cloud lichen]

my bad (i'm not experienced with signs, sorry!)

[reef narwhal]

Yea hex codes seem to work for me but the actual color names broken for some reason

[cedar quarry]

judging this by programmers perspective if <color=grey>Coal&Misc</color> doesn't work and glitches out you might try to avoid &

[reef narwhal]

Any idea why thats like that though?

Something I did or?

[cedar quarry]

i dont know what you did or what you've written

jsut destory it and copy paste the thing above

[hybrid yacht]

bros is there a way to dig out the muddy scrap piles in the ground easier?

[fervent birch]

Go do the ones in the Sunken Crypts.
