[hollow lava]

We've got two 2 stars in here that are both night spawns, and now I'm just chilling in the little shack we made

[smoky nexus]

Good Luck

[white slate]

do we have 5x change to get extra food when we cook 5 at a time+

or is it better to cook food one by one?

[smoky nexus]

Well if one by me I know you get a chance to produce an extra depending on cooking skill but not sure how that works if done by 5

[tired root]

Each 5 should give same possibilities to produce extra.

[thorn spire]

I think this is correct, each of the 5 has a chance to produce extra, however you're only performing the action once, so I think your skill only goes up 1x instead of 5x.

[steep tusk]

All 5 have separate chances of proccing it. Skill gain is not affected by doing 1x or 5x crafting.

[steady viper]

and yet, according to the wiki, the scythe only gives exp per use on eligible items (and mobs, apparently?) instead of a per-item basis? Like, if you want to increase your farming skill faster, not using the scythe gives you more exp, which in turn made me believe the x5 crafting did the same...

[mental dragon]

anyone used synology nas or ugreen nas as their dedicated servers?

[ashen copper]

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? valhein - unity 6000.0.46f1 crash problem

[agile nimbus]

How do I support my roof I’m struggling to make one😭

[steep tusk]

Build smaller until you get to Swamp.

[agile nimbus]

Oh alright

[steep tusk]

Swamp gives you access to stone building and ironwood beams. Drastically increases your building options.
Mountain gives you ||crystal, for actual windows||
Plains gives you ||Darkwood, like wood, but cooler and with more purely detail pieces.||
Mistlands gives you ||Black Marble, copper decorations, spiral stairs.||
Ashlands gives you ||Ashwood, Grausten||

[agile nimbus]

Oh thanks a lot if I didn’t know this I woulda been trying for the whole night

[steep tusk]

I never try to do large builds until Mistlands 😄

[agile jetty]

hello fellow vikings may I please have a bear trophy, I've lost count of the amount of bears I have killed just fro a trophy but still no luck in getting one

[steep tusk]

Was your world made after the update?

[agile jetty]

yes

[steep tusk]

Have you found Haldor?

[agile jetty]

not yet

[steep tusk]

Find him, break his rug. Free trophy.

[agile jetty]

ohhhh

alright thank youu

[stark magnet]

What is the the plural for Lox?

[steep tusk]

Lox.
As stated by the dev who made them.

[stark magnet]

What about Loxen?

[steep tusk]

No. It is Lox.

[stark magnet]

Dang

[fierce venture]

my hen's wont move from that spot and I need them to walk into the pufferfish

[true steeple]

Maybe you could place some food near the pufferfish?

[young oak]

reload game?

restart server

[fierce venture]

nah it was an obvious fix im just dumb, they didn't want to path under the lattice but I just added more space

[young oak]

lol the little things

[molten cedar]

Does anyone have macros for power combos?

[heavy ridge]

i got stuck in the swamp dungeon. this tree blocking me - it there a command for deleting this tree?

i cannot fly away or get into the dungeon

[frosty frost]

Do you already have commands enabled?

[heavy ridge]

yes devcommands is on

[frosty frost]

Then type debugmode and use Ctrl+MMB to click somewhere around your current position, it will teleport you whereever you click

[heavy ridge]

what's mmb?

[frosty frost]

Middle mouse button, the wheel

As for deleting the tree, might be possible, but i would need to test it and i am not home right now nor do i remember Its id from top of my head

[static steppe]

Try Forcedelete 10 SwampTree2_log

@heavy ridge

[white slate]

dvergr got mad at me when i accidentally hit their walls when i was trying to help out against seekers

will time heal wounds between us or will they be aggressive towards me forever now?

[frosty frost]

Time cant heal this wound sadly

[white slate]

then it's time for them to die 🙂 thanks

[tired root]

They stop being hostile when they're dead.

[alpine geode]

Hey is there any way to place these Dvergr Lanterns on the ground like this by myself?

[frosty frost]

Unfortunately no

[alpine geode]

ok thanks

[crisp yew]

When is next steam discount? Is it predictable or do I just have to guess?

[tired root]

Probably during the next bigger sale.

[crisp yew]

which is when`?

[tired root]

There is usually Winter sale during holidays.

[crisp yew]

what about blackfriday or halloween?

[steep tusk]

I always forget how expensive this game is...

[tired root]

Not sure about either, I'd recall there hasn't been specific "Halloween sale" period on Steam at least.

But if you put the game on wishlist you will get notification when it's on sale.
-# Although the current price is very fair for the content the game contains.

[frosty frost]

You can just look whenever sales are happening https://steamdb.info/sales/history/ 🙂

[tired root]

Good call, I forgot those existed.

[coarse relic]

I have a question, i currently use older version of valheim. And if i get the newer one will it effect my world?

[frosty frost]

New stuff from the newer update/s will generate in unexplored areas, and stuff like enemies that might have been added to older biomes will spawn even in already explored areas 🙂

[still oxide]

if im the host do i need to have my friends to have the same mod in their r2modman for it to work or just me the host?

[frosty frost]

Folks in #mods-discussion might know 😄

[faint osprey]

yes

[ember flax]

is the right channel, where i can ask people to play and help me in my game world?

[solemn osprey]

You'll want servers-and-lfg, channel below this one.

[frosty frost]

Depends with what, but yeah, most of the time the #1024264966712340510 will be more appropriate like Salahaldin says 😄

[ember flax]

Thanks y’all!

[coarse relic]

Hey can i dm u rq

[unkempt finch]

can the staff of the wild root enemys ? like so they dohnt move anymore

[faint osprey]

yes

can a oozer that i spawned with the new thing from bog witch despawn?

[frosty frost]

I dont think so 🤔 enemies usually dont despawn unless they are night or raid spawn

But since this is quite new feature i am not really sure

[faint osprey]

cuz

would be sad if he did

[frosty frost]

In the worst case you can just throw in another one 😄
But just wait and you will see if he despawns

[unkempt finch]

what new thing?

[faint osprey]

corcked bottle or what ever its called that you can buy from the bog witch

[pastel cove]

Hi, is there a way to make this arc without these log poles and roof not falling down?

[cunning basin]

quick question and im not sure if anyone has an answer, but how is xp calculated for the blocking skill? is it the damage blocked, whether you parry or not, or just how many times you block? (im using twig for training and im leveling quickly, but im curious as to how the xp is calculated)

[frosty frost]

Once you get to swamp, yep 🙂

[frosty frost]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Skills 🙂

0.5xp per blocked attack (+0.5xp when parrying)

[pastel cove]

ok, got ya 👍

[cunning basin]

rested gives an exp boost?

[frosty frost]

Indeed it does 😄

[cunning basin]

i never knew that, has that always been a modifying factor?

[steep tusk]

Yes.

[frosty frost]

Yep

[faint osprey]

this is my new favorite greydwarf farm super easy and cheap to build only requires finding bog witch wich is super early in the game

[steep tusk]

-# I hate automated farms as I believe they are against the entire spirit of the game.

It looks clean, I'll give you that.

[faint osprey]

thinking of and desining farms is one my favorites things to do in a game ngl

[steep tusk]

I respect that you have found your passion.

[cunning basin]

thanks for the info, I feel silly now but i always thought you learned faster based on the damage blocked, so I would literally fight most larger enemies to try and parry the heaviest hits possible before getting staggered.

[fast hound]

Hi am playing from denmark and my steam only gives me the 0.221.4 (n-35) version, Ive done everything from removing the cache, to using the hidden steam console to download the depot but it keeps opening the 0.221.4 (n-35) version while my friends are all playing on 0.221.5 (n-35) and so is the server on. Can anybody help me I dont know whats wrong

[faint osprey]

Creativity to be lazy that's what makes us human

[lament stirrup]

how do i support a port built in the middle of the sea? do i need stone pillars all the way to the ground?

[steep tusk]

Ironwood is the strongest support.
And based on how deep the sea is, the answer may be "you don't."

[barren yarrow]

is there a command to get rid of birds?

[steep tusk]

I mean you can probably kill them with everything else that dies when you kill, but they will respawn.

[barren yarrow]

killall dosent work on them

[steep tusk]

🤷‍♂️ Are they genuinely causing issues?

[barren yarrow]

i jokingly spawned them in thinking i could killall them, they are very loud,lol

i spawned crows

[steep tusk]

Kill should have a creature-specific variant iirc.

Otherwise just grab your bow and go to town.

[spare ravine]

birds arent "creatures", I think

[steep tusk]

Fair.

[spare ravine]

I mean within the game engine. Im not implying they are government drones.

[steep tusk]

I know 😄

[spare ravine]

Just wanted to be sure,

[hot fiber]

I am taming a 2 star wolf, and have both a 1 star and 2 star in the pit together - in my mind, to tame them both and get them to breed ASAP. But I realize the 1 star might tame before the 2 star and thats a whole issue x_x. Do 1 stars tame only at night, too? ahh im worried ill lose my 2 star lol its lower health than the 1

[ember flax]

can anyone at any level tame?

[hot fiber]

yes

[hybrid cedar]

Does anyone do item drops in this server or no

If so… I lost all my shit trying to retrieve my stuff from ashlands and keep losing everything and something destroyed the portal. I boat there the boat burns down before I can get to swimming distance I just wanna get some of my stuff back so I can continue playing until more of my friends are online to help me get my original stuff lol

[steep tusk]

devcommand spawning it yourself is the same thing as one of us devcommand spawning it and handing it to you.

[edgy light]

how do you reel in

everytime i do it just says i lost my fish

[thorn spire]

right mouse button.

you need stamina to reel in fish. Stamina drain is higher when they're struggling (you can see it) or when you first hook the fish.

The early game fish take less stamina to catch. start with them to improve your skill.

[edgy light]

ooh

[steep tusk]

Stamina drain is what gives you EXP. So you can start on whatever tier you want if your goal is just training. But if you want to catch stuff, yeah, go back to the Meadows and find a shoreline.

[edgy light]

fish cannot be that tiring cro im losing 100 stamina to a pike

[steep tusk]

When you first start the stamina drain is quite high.
As you level the skill the drain gets much lower.

[edgy light]

the only way i can catch the fish is if i go upland

i have a strat

[thorn spire]

yep, pulling them on land works too.

might i recommend reeling them in while they're on land like that. you still practice the skill and even if you lose it, just pick it up.

[hybrid cedar]

Didn’t know that was a thing also I’m in a server w people I don’t think commands are enabled

But I figured it out

[past violet]

Is the swamp biome supposed to feel like a bit of a big leap in terms of difficulty? or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Everything seems to hit like a freight train even with all my equipment upgraded fully

Maybe I should be trying to find better food to make or something? or use these meads/potions all the time? trying to gather the materials to make them isn't a 2 minute job lol

[steep tusk]

What's your food?

[compact heath]

Yes definitely way harder than Black Forest especially for first timers, have you got 1 or 2 vegies growing yet after making the cultivator, got a cauldron and maybe even upgraded it? Also stamina mead poison mead and health mead does help a ton and if you found the "mead ingredients vendor" then there is another mead or 2 that will help

also what gear, bronze or troll or bear or got some swamp equipment already?

[steep tusk]

I would not class it as way harder.

[compact heath]

for a new player that doesnt even know how to step around leeches I would

[steep tusk]

I would previously. Now we have bears that nuke people in the BF. So it's about equal in step-up from previous.

[compact heath]

for my first time I thought they were impossible to avoid and let alone defeat

and bears and trolls imo are equally scary for new players, the new addition that is very tough is 1 ore more of EACH bear and troll at the same time imho

my swamp experience was massively scared of poison too, cause no mead as i didn't make the fermenter, and also pre abominations ( thought poison was extremely hard to mitigate and avoid as I didnt know about mead) Feb 2021

[steady viper]

most of the increase in difficulty comes from lack of preparation, more than an objective difficulty of the game tbh

skeletons aren't new, leeches leave you alone if you're not in the water, oozers are a pain because of poison damage but they're overall slow, draugers are just a beafy slight variation to skeletons and the first time you get to the swamp you're surely running away from an abomination... once you realize you need the atgeir, the mace and some poison resist, it becomes way easier

and obviously food, but that's a mechanic you're supposed to master in previous biomes already... though I admit I also didn't consider it a big factor during my first playthrough

[burnt glacier]

Why does the no skill drain always appears twice for me?

[civic owl]

There's probably a really lenghty discussion about this topic hidden somwhere in the vast reaches of this Discord but I wouldn't know where to look, so I'll ask my question here:

I am planning on starting a server with up to 16 people from mostly mainland Europe, the UK and one or two from the states.

I am not sure what specifics I might have to look for aside of server placement (probably London) and it'd be lovely if one of you magnificent folks here could help me out a little.

Help me Obi wan, you're our only hope!

[maiden verge]

I hope all 16 of you are not going into the ashlands at the same time. Anything over 4 people in a group makes the lag unbearable even with the fixes they have implemented. Something about when the 4th person is in there that brings in a ton of lag and every person over that seems to make it worse. It has always been an issue with lag there and they made some fixes to help but when we play with four or more, we just split up in to groups or 3 or less to keep the game playable in the ashlands. Rest of the biomes seem to be fine just that one is rough when there are four or more.

[civic owl]

Thanks for the input.

[merry shale]

did they remove being able to instamine the big plains rocks by digging under it like a silver vein

[thorn spire]

You should still be able to

[merry shale]

huh. thats weird

i even made sure there was no funny business invisible hitboxes still supporting it

[thorn spire]

You did try to break the stone at least once, right?

It’s not like buildings that will crumble without support

[merry shale]

yeah i broke a lot of it

[haughty stump]

You still have a corner touching soil, or the height difference is too low somewhere and it wants a bit more digging

[merry shale]

no where is close to land

[haughty stump]

Or space around it. Its not possible otherwise, it always works. Crack open the middle, maybe smthn growing. It works if it meets all criteria.

Always did, i tested 2 weeks ago, try to figure out

[frosty frost]

Try to reload the area maybe 🤔

[merry shale]

will try

[grave lodge]

is there a command or admin method of locating a boss altar? me and a friend have spent a collective total of 4 hours looking for yagluth and it's getting exhausting and really unfun

[slender plank]

there is map viewer, can be set to minimum, like only fog and icons of boss altar

[steady viper]

visual bug, it happens if you return/stay close to where you died. For some reason the UI applies the effect again, but you can actually still lose skills if the correct (and hidden) timer actually runs out

I had it appear more than just twice, btw, but that may have been triggered by a few quick deaths back-to-back while I was building...

[burnt glacier]

Thank you! 🙂 Couldn't find anything about it. Good to know it's actually not protecting from skill loss.

[white slate]

does roots run out of sap eventually?

[frosty frost]

Nope, they regenerate slowly 🙂

[marble pagoda]

try findtp GoblinKing with devcommands on

[arctic palm]

I accidentally deleted a boss location marker from my map, does anyone know how to get the actual mark back beyond finding another boss marker in a dungeon

[marble pagoda]

you can read the runestone on the actual boss altar to get the mark, but that's about it

[tacit breach]

Go to the one you got it from in the first place? Assuming you recall where that is.

[inner maple]

Thanks <3

[unique wigeon]

is there a command to give another player admin? my character got stuck in a multiplayer world and im trying to find a way to get out without having to do killme

unless theres a way to tp another player somewhere

[tacit breach]

Can you do teleporting? Flying? How limited are you on dev commands?

[unique wigeon]

im not admin i need a command i can tell my friend to use to give me commands

or a command that teleports others, etc etc

im stuck behind some stupid root in a swamp dungeon

[tacit breach]

All the dev commands are listed on line. I never had a situation like this when I ran servers. Sounds like you got stuck the same way a did several years ago. I teleported out, but I also was the admin.

[unique wigeon]

yeah i been looking around but im not seeing anything

like im just looking for the equivalent of the /op command minecraft has lol

[tacit breach]

So the tunnel that goes down into water, has root looking things at the end? You kind of "popped" past them, and now can't back out?

[unique wigeon]

yeah pretty much

why is this even a thing lol

i cant even try to destroy the root cause im in frikken water

[tacit breach]

Yeah, like I said, that happened to me two or three years ago. Fortunately I was the admin.

[unique wigeon]

ok we managed to destroy the root

[tacit breach]

Sign out and put your gear on another world if you have to do the dying route. You may not be able to reach a tombstone in that situation. So just be sure about your gear.

[unique wigeon]

i got out lol, had my friend shoot the thing

[tacit breach]

Oh, good!

We didn't even think to try shooting it, so good thinking!

[solemn harness]

i just built my first eitr refinery, and something is destroying all my nearby buildings

is it the building or the refined eitr sitting there? the building seems to shoot these things into the air all over the place

[steep tusk]

i just built my first eitr refinery, and something is destroying all my nearby buildings
Allow me to connect the dots:
i just built my first eitr refinery
^
something is destroying
^
my first eitr refinery

[solemn harness]

thank you for being an asshole about it

[steep tusk]

🤔

[solemn harness]

now if you read the second sentence, you'll see my question gets more specific

do you need me to spell out how your tone is in appropriate

i'm asking for help, not snarky remarks

[steep tusk]

You do see how in both cases you are answering your own question?

Also yes, spell out the imaginary tone you are inferring.

[solemn harness]

let me repeat, first time i've ever had a refinery, why do you keep acting like i should know shit that i'm just now experiencing

and why do you continue to lean into the assholeish ness

forget it, you're obviously not interested in helping

[steep tusk]

Why do you continue to choose to put that tone on words when you could choose to read them any other way?

You have observed exactly what is happening. The shoot-outs are what do the damage.

You've also observed what causes the shootouts:

• The machine running.
• EITR balls sitting anywhere.

If you take that information and then realize you know what is happening, I would assume the follow-up question is "How do I stop this?"
--Black Marble is immune to the sparks.

But all I have done is answer your questions... so clearly not helpful 🤷‍♂️

[jade steeple]

Wait

Your character can world hop????

[marble pagoda]

yea characters are totally independent from worlds
I would stick to one character and one world for your first playthrough though if you wanna get the intended experience

[slender plank]

You might have had good intention of just letting him figure it out by himself, but your way indeed could be read as arrogant and like someone tired of helping people ..

Also your answer really did not answer his question. He knew its linked to eitr stuff but he asked if its building or eitr specifically, simple answer 'both' would work miracles..

[past violet]

Do monsters attack your boat if you are inside a dungeon? or a fair distance away while on the surface?

Regardless, is there any methods to keeping my boat safe?

I just got a little outpost setup and turned around and my boat was destroyed lol

[tired root]

It depends if the boat is inside the active area around the player while you are inside dungeon. If it is, then enemies on surface can attack boats/workbenches etc.

You can keep your boat "safe" by breaking it and storing the materials in chest.

[tired arrow]

yknow i'd love to experience the new pendant items but i cant because 40 bears later, i still dont have a damn bear trophy...

[slender plank]

Real unlucky, it should have 10% drop rate .. im sure next one is the one

[tired arrow]

LETS GAMBLE

[slender plank]

No, if you include my luck in your luck, you never getting that damn head 😄

[tired arrow]

i love the bear mob and bear claws ngl, im glad i was lucky to receive 1 bear trophy for the armor piece, but man i just want 1 more so i could finally progress past bronze age.

the trinket is absolutely not required but man i just want that trinket yknow

[tired arrow]

ngl i have way better chances of getting rod of discord from terraria than a 2nd bear trophy 💀

[tired root]

If you've created your world after the Call to Arms update, there is one location where you can surely get another trophy.
-# ||At Haldor's camp there is bear rug added after update which can be broken.||

[slender plank]

I play hardcore mode right now, i rather go for to swamp unprepared than to fight 40 bears 😄 They are too scar

[tired arrow]

dayum

[tired arrow]

hardcore player! how many playthrough resets have you gone through?

[slender plank]

cant say reset, i always overmake stuff so if i die, i get back on track fast .. but 2 times.. and im still early game though, just killed elder

[tired root]

Hardcore as harder difficulty or permadeath?

[slender plank]

both

hardcore as preset

permadeath - i can continue world, but i loose gear and skill

[tired root]

Ah, I had this other permadeath rule in mind where you would start again if you die.

[slender plank]

i added no map on top of it to experience more pain - if i start whole world again, that would burn you out quickly .. theres just too many ways to die

[tired arrow]

yea i thought hardcore meant that you have to start from zero when you die, new world new char

similar to terraria as well, even if it just deletes the character

OH MY GOOOOD

[slender plank]

Congrats

[tired arrow]

time to test the 2 but i have a feeling bear claws is gonna come out on top

[steep tusk]

Choosing to read things negatively is something I will never understand. 🤷‍♂️

[tired root]

Both are good, but tbf Abyssal razor is technically one tier above bear claws, even thought it is acquirable before getting to swamp era.

[tired arrow]

ah, good to see abyssal razor still goated, BUT my problem is i dont have enough copper to make a properly levelled up bronze shield.

Because i hate mining copper, fully mining 1 copper deposit is enough for me, its boring af

[slender plank]

dps aside, razor should be better just because faster attack (so not stuck in attack animations for long) and you can couple it with shield

[tired arrow]

honestly, if i can parry all abomination attacks in "normal" mode with bear claws, im good with sticking with bear claws.

[tired root]

In my pov mining copper is more tedious because we only get the weakest pickaxe available and have very low mining skill, which makes it slower process.

[tired arrow]

god i hate copper mining, my least favorite part of the game, and its a shame that a giant ass copper deposit isnt enough to get atleast 2 bronze related weapons maxed out

[slender plank]

@tired root I mine copper by unearthing whole rock and then just picking it direcly few times

and for that, antler is best (low stamina cost)

[tired arrow]

imo even with unearthing the whole rock method, copper mining is still so boring in vanilla, i just man up every playthrough to completely mine out 1 copper deposit and never again

[slender plank]

yeah im not saying its fun.. just reacting to weakest pick a skill 😄 .. not relevent with that 😄

[tired root]

Mining from top damages the nodes more due to not hitting multiple targets at the same swing.

I usually mine around the node and then start mining from top to bottom.

[slender plank]

Point is it will break on its own

[tired arrow]

funny enough i sometimes use a log wielding troll to get copper for me, and its faster than normal mining, unfortunately he's not able to destroy land to unearth the buried copper below lol

[slender plank]

pick boulder that is on slope and not burrowed much to start with .. and go under it to bedrock .. when its unearthed, you just need to destroy single piece of rock for it break completely

[tired root]

Not always, it's much easier with silver deposits but copper nodes have actually quite huge hitboxes that can prevent breaking down completely sometimes.

[slender plank]

yeah, thats why i pick carefully on slope

[tired arrow]

alright bear claws is actually goated, just compared my dps to an abomination between it vs the abyssal razor and bear claws is better

dps is also surprisingly much better on the bear claws vs abyssal razor against the green slime enemies, ik i should use hammers but still

[slender plank]

isnt abomination resistant to pierce (which is half of damange from razor) ?

its very resistant, that means your 20 + 20 base damage of razor is only 20 + 5

[tired arrow]

yea therefore bear claws is better atm for me in the swamp, i think i will use razor again in the mountains, and my luck with finding the npc that sells a recipe for frostner, razor will be useful in the mountains for a good while

[lavish flame]

I'm starting to get mad I have one roof peace the just keep randomly exploding even tho its supposed and it won't do it won't for hours as soon as I'm almost done with my roof pop!

[steep tusk]

What biome are you up to?

@lavish flame

[frosty frost]

Judging from their past messages they have been even through ashlands 🙂

[steep tusk]

Then this roof must be massive.

[lavish flame]

Meadows

[steep tusk]

If you are only up to the Meadows then the standard advice is "build smaller until Swamp" because that is when you get access to ironwood and stone. Two things that drastically increase your building range and variety.

[lavish flame]

I fixed it but it had to do way to much for one roof peace

[past violet]

This rested bonus thing, do I need to have comfort items packed near eachother?

I've put down some comfort items in my base but they don't seem to contribute to the total and I'm assuming maybe it's because they aren't near my bed/fire?

[slender plank]

they radiate their comfort bonus in 10 m radius, you just need to have spot in your house where they intersect

where they are relative to each other does not matter

[meager vale]

That's why they take like 200 arrows!

[slender plank]

yeah, they dont like fire tho, but fire in swamp is ineffective :/

[tacit breach]

They burn for a while, even in the swamp. Get them on a geyser works really quickly.

Shoot them with a fire arrow, see for yourself.

Still fastest to melee them with an axe.

[true steeple]

Swords are better

[tacit breach]

I don't use swords until the plains, so I have no experience with them in swamps.

[true steeple]

If you need to deal slash damage, a sword will get it done faster than an axe.

[radiant topaz]

Hey guys, if I have 15 Surtling cores. Would it be better to make 2 kilns and 1 smelter? or 2 smelters and 1 kiln? or just 1 of each and have 5 left over?

[true steeple]

You can deconstruct kilns and smelters at any time to make what you need

[radiant topaz]

Oh okay, thank you!

[meager vale]

Are you playing with fire damage enabled? If so you don't need a kiln at all.

[steady viper]

if you really wanna use all of your surtling cores like that, I'd say 1 kiln and 2 smelters\

otherwise just keep building and deconstructing like Blob said

once you get to the swamps you'll have a much easier time with both coal and surtling cores

[steep tusk]

If you believe in making automated mob farms, yes.

Some of us find them to be completely against the spirit of the game.

[vast ivy]

Hi guys. Do you use +password launch option on steam? Is it functional? I have something like this "+connect 129.144.30.62:2456 +password pw123" and still get a prompt for password.

[plucky pollen]

How good is the ||Dead Raiser||? Is it worh it?

[tired root]

The summons can be useful for fighting and for distraction, also for leveling up blood magic skill.

[upper bough]

is this surtling farm going to work? worried the water might not be high enough or that they won't spawn in the box

[tired root]

Iirc torches can prevent them spawning.

[upper bough]

removed the torches & walked away and then 3 of them spawned

lmao.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, everything on this list prevents spawns in at least 20m radius 🙂 https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base
-# But if you want to look be ready that there are few things past swamps, so spoilers 😄

[shut dove]

anyone know how rare this is

[frosty frost]

Somewhat 🙂 its nice when it happens

[shut dove]

k

[steep tusk]

I have all 3 of them in that distance 🤷‍♂️

[meager vale]

Remember that they won't spawn unless you are in render. So make a treefort close by.

[alpine tapir]

wtf how high can you build with wood iron?

[steep tusk]

It has the most structural points so, quite high.

[alpine tapir]

dang

ah but it barely increases the height you can build stone to.

[steep tusk]

Stone costs a lot of points to support.

[alpine tapir]

well frick

[tight hornet]

hey guys, I am looking for 2-3 people who want to start a valheim world with me! if you're interested please dm me.

[tight hornet]

oh mb lol

[devout linden]

does anyone know why my portals wont work?

[tacit breach]

Do you name them as pairs?

[devout linden]

yes

[tacit breach]

If it's not name mismatching, then no idea.

[devout linden]

exactly i have no clue either

[tacit breach]

Restart, see if it clears whatever it may be.

[alpine tapir]

ok so for staggered 2x2x4s, wood iron only allow you to build 12 high, as opposed to the normal 11. But for stone pillars, wood iron lets you build to 15 high instead of 8. so thats something

[tacit breach]

Things like ancient trees can let you stretch that a bit, but those are the numbers I remember for normal builds.

[grave lodge]

Why does this barley say it needs more room? Every bit of barley in this specific spot of land says it can't grow for whatever reason

[true steeple]

There could be a rock below the ground?

[grave lodge]

Oh there was! I broke it earlier but left some chunks

[paper crypt]

Hello, I have been playing with my friend on his world and he lives in a different timezone so there's very little room for us to play, and when we do most of it is grinding and building

Is there a way to have his world open for me and our other friends to join whenever we want? That way I can build/grind and check on farm every now and then and whenever all of us assemble we can raid the Ashlands

Almost like a Minecraft server

[steep tusk]

Yes, you or they can purchase a dedicated server and it will be always online.

[paper crypt]

How much and where do I buy it?

[steep tusk]

Best to do an online search for that. Prices will vary by provider.

[lucid zenith]

i like using bisect hosting.

[jade olive]

Have the drops for seeds lowered at all? I am noticing at least in my play threw I hardly get any tree seeds for some reason?

[cunning basin]

any good ways to move wolves? like a leash or any way to transport them?

cause im on a game with a friend and we got a 1 star tamed and i would like to get them across the ocean

[faint osprey]

Harpoon it and drag it into a boat

[cunning basin]

tried that didnt work

kinda janked it where we got them on a boat

[edgy light]

is this stuff enough to beat moder solo?

[cunning basin]

yeah id say so

[edgy light]

fire thanks

[cunning basin]

also if you want better arrows, go to the plains and kill some deathsquitos

probably misspelled the name but you get it

[steep tusk]

I have questions....

[edgy light]

ask away

[steep tusk]

You're going to kill a boss, right?

[edgy light]

moder the flying ice dragon thing

[steep tusk]

How does a fishing rod help you do that?

[edgy light]

food

[steep tusk]

During the boss fight?

[edgy light]

if you can tell by the picture im low on fish

[cunning basin]

yeah dude hes gonna do some ice fishing after be beats moder

[steep tusk]

What I'm poking at is for "I am going to kill a boss" you seem to be carrying a lot of things you don't need.

[edgy light]

i got my trusty fishing rod and bait

i might go fishing on the way back

anywho is that stuff enough to beat moder

[cunning basin]

still id say so

[edgy light]

ima get more stone for fires prolly

[cunning basin]

tbh tho im a bigger fan of the iron banded sheild

[edgy light]

i like the parry bonus

[cunning basin]

fair but bosses dont get stunned

[edgy light]

fair

[steep tusk]

Yes but parry costs no stamina now.

So parrying bosses is actually good.
Because balance....

[edgy light]

i could get the silver shield

67

[cunning basin]

if you wanna fight it quicker you could just level it a bit

[edgy light]

i have the resources

[cunning basin]

do it then

[steep tusk]

Only spend the silver if you have already fully upgraded the sword.

[edgy light]

doesnt moder fly

[steep tusk]

Yes, but she will die faster if you pound her when she lands.

[edgy light]

does she land often

[cunning basin]

if i remember properly she starts in the air and grounds later in the fight

[steep tusk]

Yes. She cycles between landed and flying.

When she does land it is for a good full minute.

[edgy light]

upgrading the sword would take horrendously long so ima just make the shield

[steep tusk]

Silver Sword is also BiS for the next boss.

[edgy light]

BiS?

[steep tusk]

Best in Slot.

[edgy light]

time to farm coal

[cunning basin]

if you just want some good damage, fire arrows does numbers on moder if you want to make the air portion of the fight easier

[edgy light]

yeah i gotem

if i upgrade the sword just once ill assume its fine?

[steep tusk]

All the way to rank 4 or are you even playing the game? 😏

[edgy light]

well I can upgrade it to rank 4 after moder

[steep tusk]

True.

[stark magnet]

I have a level 3 wood club and fought a funny dragon

[cunning basin]

i beat the bonemass wearing troll hide armor

[edgy light]

same but I had the bear armor

[cunning basin]

based

[edgy light]

I infact was on 5 health at one point

[cunning basin]

same, and i used a maxed wood club on the bonemass

[edgy light]

at the time I thought you needed a tankard to drink mead - also I did have the same level 3 mace I got now

[cunning basin]

lmao dude i bought the fishing rod before i noticed the megingjord on my first run

[edgy light]

lmao same

i bought it then read the thunderstone thing then I read megingjord and realized I messed up

[cunning basin]

lmao

i just thought funny fishing that sounds fun

[edgy light]

I thought "ooh fishing I was wondering if you could do that"

[cunning basin]

at least fishing meat can make those party platters

[edgy light]

even the base cooked fish is good

[cunning basin]

true

but a 50 minute buff goes hard as hell

[edgy light]

i aint there yet

[cunning basin]

fair getting (and killing) a sea serpent is a pain in the ass

[edgy light]

I havent gotten sea serpent on this run yet (have in my cousins multiplayer one though)

[cunning basin]

have you found the bog witch yet?

[edgy light]

nope

[cunning basin]

thats gonna make thing complicated

[edgy light]

pretty sure its in a different swamp

[cunning basin]

they sell a lot of new ingredients and pieces for both new buffs and new foods

[edgy light]

ill look for her after moder

ima stream moder in one of the vcs

[edgy light]

just beat moder should I go for it 🤑

[fair lotus]

You should… got to learn somehow!

[still oxide]

does tamed animal die when starved?

[steady viper]

no, there is no starvation system in the whole game

[tired root]

Food is only required for breeding and restoring HP, they don't die due to starvation.

[tired root]

Instead of FAFO, you go:

[hoary breach]

hELLO!

I was just wondering if there's a good resource somewhere for reading up on how support works when building stuff

[frosty frost]

It basically checks the amount of pieces from the last connection to "ground" (keep in mind that rocks, trees and other stuff like that also count as "ground). The more pieces from the "ground" connection the weaker stability is, different types of pieces have different "strenght" which affects how many of them you can build from a stable point. And dont be too alarmed by the colour of the piece you see with hammer, even if its totally red it will not self destruct over time or anything, it just tells you that you are very close to the limit where taht piece cant support another piece.

[hoary breach]

It DOES? That's what I had concluded myself from experimentation about two years ago or so, but then I read a bit on... I believe the wiki, and that seemed to indicate there was a more complex system in place

Oh, @frosty frost

[frosty frost]

It is slightly more complicated than that ofc 😄 there is for example a difference between vertical and horizontal support loss. But the basics are like i said.
For more details you can read up on https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Building_stability 😄

[hoary breach]

Oh, and the reason I'm only asking now, in case you were wondering, is that I only just came back to the game after about two years 🙂

[hoary breach]

Thank you very much!

[marsh glade]

Hello everyone. Me and my husband have a problem a little problem whit this game. We were going to play together whit some friends but we can`t seme to be able to logg on to there game. We are not on the sama sedd ass them and they live abut 2-3 swedish mil from oss. Our sedd is 0,221,4 and our friends sedd is 0,221,5 how do we get the up date sow we get to that sedd?

[surreal pagoda]

Is this kind of "ground mist" dynamic or fixed? Will flattening/lowering an area make it appear and/or will raising etc make it go away?

Planning to build in this area but don't want to end up with a foggy indoor space 😄

[drowsy crane]

Fires and light sources dissipate this fog 👍

[surreal pagoda]

Oh, neat. So might seem like a problem when building, but probably not once something is done and lit up?

[drowsy crane]

Exactly

[plucky pollen]

||If you open up the door of the Queen, will she come out or is she in a dungeon?||

[drowsy crane]

Dungeon

[plucky pollen]

So I could technically build a portal right infront of it?

[drowsy crane]

Absolutely

[plucky pollen]

thanks

[forest mist]

Hi folks, the toll tunic looks weird. Does anyone know where the change might come from?

[steep tusk]

Probably from all the mods.
Ask in #mods-discussion

[forest mist]

Oh, sorry

[forest mist]

Are pictures not allowed in #mods-discussion ?

[steep tusk]

idk I don't mod so I have that channel muted. You can just link them here for now, but in the future it's simpler to post it in #screenshots and then link that message to your #mods-discussion post.

[forest mist]

Thank you.

[tired root]

There is also https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934384643154001

Better to post pictures of modded content there.

[stiff bramble]

I haven't been able to find an answer in the search, so let me ask if anyone knows for certain whether v1.0 will allow us to keep built worlds or if it will crush them like Mistlands and Ashlands each did (gates and bases on islands that included or were within vision of either sometimes got wiped or spaced (usually over water))?

[true steeple]

That only happened because of terrain changes to existing biomes. The ashlands update added an ocean border to deep north so the only builds that should be affected are builds that are in the deep north placeholder biome.

[stiff bramble]

So I can continue to build normally anywhere else this time and not be sacrificing all that effort?

[tired root]

As long as you don't build to current Deep North everything should be safe.

I'd assume we won't get main updates that would change terrain after 1.0 update.

[stiff bramble]

I don't use command line codes to build, so a major base is a big investment in time.

I lost two in the Mistlands update and one in the Ashlands.

[tired root]

Did you build there before the updates when they were on their placeholder state?

[stiff bramble]

Before the mistlands, I had bases on the same islands, but in black forest or plains. For the far north, it was in black forest within sight of the frozen north placeholder.

[tired root]

Yeah, the close area in border of Ashlands was warned about they will be affected by the terrain changes to form the ocean gap between the biomes, but I don't recall they warned about it happening in the same area close to Deep North border.

[stiff bramble]

All three wound up either just above the sea with everything fallin in after I gated or in one case, my base was hundreds of feet above open water.

Anyway, thanks for the reassurance.

[stiff bramble]

None were close to ashlands.

[true steeple]

Were they close to deep north?

[tired root]

Yeah, but you mentioned close to Deep North, having sight to it?

[stiff bramble]

One was, the one that died after the ashlands update.

The others were simply on the same islands as mistlands placeholders and the mistlands update broke them.

[tired root]

Yes, that area was also affected by the update, hence I mentioned it above that there was no mention it would happen close to Deep North border.

Devs warned beforehand it happening close to Ashlands border.

[stiff bramble]

Thanks for trying, but the mistlands wipes were not on the ashlands islands... well, now that I say that, I'm not sure I had completely investigated either of those islands and they were in the south.

[tired root]

The ones altered by Mistlands update, can you describe what happened exactly?

[stiff bramble]

But I think you are saying that happened for the ashlands update and not the mistlands one

[tired root]

Yeah the bordering areas near Ashland and Deep North were affected by Ashland update.

[stiff bramble]

In both cases, bases were within sight of the coast but no on it. in one case, the base was well back and up a hillside (near a tomb). In the first case, when I gated in, the gate was mere feet above the water. In the second, the base was likewise over water, but stepping out from the gate was a 5 or more second plunge into deep water far from land (death).

[tired root]

Pre-Mistlands update?

[stiff bramble]

I had built them up premistlands

They were gone when I first tried to use them after.

[tired root]

It could be possible they just were close enough to the border of Mistlands area to get affected by any terrain changes.
Were there trees/boulders/deposits on air next to the Mistlands biome the first time you arrived there after update?

What I remember from the pre- and post-Mistlands differences is that the areas got more variance to the terrain, having some lower parts and those higher hills. And also coast areas that was counted as Mistlands biome got some hills raised from the water.

[stiff bramble]

Yes, as a matter of fact, there were floating trees, boulders, and copper.

[tired root]

Okay, then it was close enough to the Mistlands area to get affected by terrain changes.

I'd recall there was blog post from devs about the terrain changes in Mistlands before the update, let me check.

[stiff bramble]

AH, guess that explains that. In my current world I'm just focused on the one main base, in part because I don't want to trash a hundred hours building a troll-proof hideout just to have it dumped into the sea.

Thank you for taking the time to help me understand that. Big props your way.

[tired root]

No problem, but like I mentioned above, there should not be any terrain altering updates after 1.0 version since it will be the last biome size update for the game.

[tired root]

Couldn't find the post about the terrain changes for Mistlands, it's possible it was posted on their Twitter account but cannot access there since I have no account there.

[grand peak]

can someone help me figure out how to stabilize my house, on one side it stands but the other side wont stand. please I need help

[steep tusk]

Picture would help.

[grand peak]

its a bigger house, cant really send pictures

[frosty frost]

At least a pic of the side thats breaking

[steep tusk]

Unless you're beating every single build of month or other build sent in #building-screenshots .... you really can send pictures.

[tired root]

Pictures can be shared in this channel too, as long as they stay on the subject for looking for/providing help.
If playing on Steam you can take screenshot with F12.

[vestal hatch]

Does the game file remember every downed log in the world or do they despawn along with unused assets?

[grand peak]

this side stands

but this side doesnt

[frosty frost]

Try to get some core wood from Black Forest and use it for the pillars you have now, also in corners might be a good idea, be sure they are touching the ground and then going all the way up 🙂

[grand peak]

where is the black forest

[tired root]

You can see black forest from afar by different trees.

[frosty frost]

Look for forest with different kinds of trees than meadows 🙂 until you get some better materials you pretty much cant build higher than you have now

[tired root]

Yeah, as Asatru said, corewood on that might help, but you will eventually get stronger building materials to build stronger supports for your buildings.

You can either make supporting pillars with corewood or you can settle for shallower buildings.

[grand peak]

well I needa finish this house

cuz it say I need to have a roof to sue crafting

[tired root]

You can make smaller sheltered hut for crafting if needed asap.

Every building piece returns the materials when you deconstruct them.

[grand peak]

but howcome when I keep building support

it doesnt support

[tired root]

You need stronger material for proper support, corewood is earliest building material that is stronger than regular wood.

And the support has to touch the ground too.

[grand peak]

its all touching the ground

[frosty frost]

Every material can only support up to certain number of pieces away from last "grounded" point. Wood doesent have the best stability. 🙂

[tired root]

You still need stronger supporting material than regular wood.

[grand peak]

but if I keep adding more touching the ground

it will work? I dont have anyother type of wood

[frosty frost]

Nope, the roof will take into account only the shortest path to the ground when calculating if it breaks or not

[tired root]

You should find black forest quite easily, what you are looking for is pine trees that drop corewood. You could try build supports with it.

[grand peak]

I guess this proves to me why im better not taking architect in university 😂

[tired root]

Game mechanics differ from real life tho. 👍

[steep tusk]

Game mechanics mirror real life in that better materials = better support.

There's a reason we invented rebar and concrete. And if you build smaller until swamp you unlock ironwood and stone that drastically increase your build potential.

[grand peak]

yea I shouldve figured out that lmao

welp atleast im taking dods instead 😭

[tired root]

Yeah, it's usually better to settle for smaller buildings until you get stronger materials.
Corewood is when you can try build bit higher.

[remote tangle]

hi there! i have photosensitivity,
how can i turn off the flash effect when i (crit?) hit an enemy? i'm using the bear paws and the bright flash that happens when i crit is very painful

(idk if it's called a crit, the times you hit where it makes a clash sound and does a bunch of extra damage)

[whole socket]

Quick question in regards to 1.0.
If i start a new world now (just build my base nothing else no exploring at all) do i need to restart the world when 1.0 comes out? I'm assuming the map might be a little off... or not (not too sure)

[regal wedge]

are there farming pants like the straw hat and harvest tunic?

I foolishly bought the tunic and dress thinking the tunic was torso and dress was legs

[tacit breach]

As long as you stay out of the north before 1.0, your world will update just fine. Explored areas are what get messed up.

So don't explore the north, and none of it will have a problem getting updated.

[whole socket]

Nope just the hat and tunic. Free to use gear pants lol

[whole socket]

I believe it's in the settings to remove that. Think it's in the same section as the camera shake.

[remote tangle]

it seems to only happen when i'm wearing fins of destiny

[whole socket]

Will it change the locations of things (via the map locator) if not explored but created prior? Like say they added stuff to ocean or anything else random.

[remote tangle]

i mean i'd like to remove the flashy particles as well when i hit stuff but yea the huge glowing ring that happens with crits when i'm wearing them is rough

[whole socket]

Might want to see if you can video it and submit it as a error or glitch

[remote tangle]

i don't know how to take a video >.<

[tacit breach]

Not that I have seen stated. Things only get ruined if built in the new biome before its launched, for an example. I just keep seeing it said that if you do not explore the new area before it is launched, you will have no problems. Its been true for my old worlds for Mistlands and Ashlands,

[remote tangle]

ya so it's definitely only when i'm wearing fins of destiny, crit hits do like a bright glowing ring flash expanding out from me

also is there a way to stop the boxes of the cart from flickering?
https://gyazo.com/0cc20d74cf68c0f836d7424b9ea5f844

(gif shows flickering, idk why it's not loading)

[steep tusk]

It's not loading because very few people have image/gif perms.

[remote tangle]

ohhh sorry should i delete?

[steep tusk]

🤷‍♂️ is fine.

[remote tangle]

ya the flickering is really rough for photosensitivity >.< i've tried turning on and off different graphics settings but am not having any luck with finding how to prevent it

[spare ravine]

Whats the requirements to place a butcher's table?

[steep tusk]

Silver?

[tacit breach]

I'm travelling, so using my laptop to play Valheim for the first time in a year. The files will not sync with cloud. It fails multiple times. Any suggestions on getting it to sync? Its not showing my newer characters. I haven't even moved on to looking at the worlds listed.

[spare ravine]

no, I just couldnt put it on the floor where I wanted

game told me "not enough space" but something even more cramped was somehow fine. I guess it didnt let me put it near other crafting improvement things

[steep tusk]

Oh yeah, all upgrades for cauldron and the benches have weird and arbitrary "spaced from other upgrades" requirements.

[spare ravine]

is there bronze in fuling villages sometime?

[compact heath]

no

[spare ravine]

dang

[compact heath]

I'm not 100% about mountain caves, they def can have iron, and in 7th biome you can have all sorts of other metals

[spare ravine]

I was looking for a nearby source

[compact heath]

plains has no bronze, mist bridges have iron and something which one was that, if there is one nearby

[steep tusk]

Ice Caves have bronze. There's a chance it drops every time you break a brazier (standing or hanging).

[spare ravine]

I was specifically asking for a fuling village

[steep tusk]

Yes and that got answered immediately 😄 I was replying to Leng.

[remote tangle]

sorry just wanting to bump topic if I can, does anyone have pointers on reducing the flash from Crits while wearing the fins of destiny?
or the flickers on cart boxes?

[ornate finch]

Do you have recording of cart boxes flickering?

NVM, I see what you mean

Someone incorrectly console spawned one of the items you need as requirement (iron, wood or root).

[frosty frost]

This issue has been poping up quite a lot lately 🤔 and i still have no idea how you can spawn stuff incorrectly

[remote tangle]

yea i have photosensitivity so flickering and flashes are pretty rough

[ornate finch]

E.g. "spawn iron 2 2" instead of correct "spawn iron 2"

[frosty frost]

Huh, so "lvl2" iron? xD
Good to know tho, ty 🙂

[tired root]

That I was also wondering, thanks for clarifying!

[tired root]

Better iron.

[fathom fjord]

Lost my Wolrd i mena everything even the files are gone

I guess the ||Dead Raiser|| will always only ||summon 1 Skeleton|| at a time, right?

[plucky pollen]

I mean with 1 cast btw, not how many can be there at once.

It increases each time you upgrade it to a max of 3

It does not sadly.

[vale spade]

Hi

All voice channels are locked for me and asking for permission, am i blocked or what???

[tepid jolt]

I don't know what it means, but you have a role called "No VC".

[vale spade]

Why? Do i need something to activate it??

[tepid jolt]

No clue.

[vale spade]

Where you saw the No VC in my roles??

[tired root]

You have No VC role on your profile, which means that you have no access to voice chats. If you want to ask for reasoning, you can send DM to @lofty orchid

[steady viper]

someone's been a naughty kid

[vale spade]

No never been naughty

Modmail is a bot

Is there any admin here now??

[tired root]

Send DM to @lofty orchid which is proper channel to reach out moderators of this server.

[tepid jolt]

ModMail will open a new channel on the server, which mods and admins can see and will respond to you in.

[vale spade]

It's asking a full permission to access my account?? It's not trustworthy

[tired root]

It is trustworthy, and still proper way to contact the moderator team.

[vale spade]

Ok, but still don't know to deal with it

I do authorise then asked for option 1 or 2 ( 1 = valhiem, 2 elden ring)

[tired root]

So you wrote the message and chose proper option? Then it's sent.

Someone from moderator team will answer in due time.

[vale spade]

Okay thanks alot for the help

[meager vale]

Change will to might. I rarely get a response from modmail.

[humble ore]

Any chance someone has advice on how to not get knocked into the lava while mining in the Ashlands

[faint osprey]

Well If you have high enough jump skill (or jump boost potion) and feather cape as long as you are jumping and moving in the lava you basically won't take

Atleast where the lava isn't super deep

[solemn osprey]

Mine sections next to the one you're standing on. Also use the basalt bombs and feather cape.

[humble ore]

Ok bet ty im about to start a mining spree and i hate losing my gear in the lava

[meager vale]

Basalt bombs make it easier

[humble ore]

I normally use the bombs it’s just when I’m jumping to the next one I’ll get hit and shot into the lava

[spark sigil]

Hello. I'm new in Ashland and mage set. I just made my Embla set. it's show 130% Eitr regen. I have Eitr trinket too. I try plus foresaken eitr power. In rested and no debuff It"s seems your eitr regen very slow. It's around my stamina regen. I have 130% eitr regen by the set. 100% eitr regen by foresaken power. And 25% eitr regen by trinket. But it not regen faster. It's a bug?

With these buffs, it should recharge so fast that you can fire with the staff of frost almost non-stop. But no. It won't recharge as fast as my stamina bar

[drowsy crane]

Eitr starts regenerating after eitr has not been used for 1 second. Eitr regeneration depends linearly on the amount of remaining eitr and modifiers.

[spark sigil]

Does it matter how many eitr food are you use? I'm currently using 2 eitr and 1 hp food item. Under what conditions is eitr regen fastest during combat?

[drowsy crane]

Yes, as you'll have a larger pool of eitr with more food, and regeneration rate will scale with the amount of missing eitr over total eitr.

[spark sigil]

ooo it's scale with amount of missing. So I need 3 Eitr food for the best regeneration. It's correct?

[drowsy crane]

I believe so, though I don't often use 3 eitr food personally.

I don't think regeneration will be faster, it will just net more eitr with each tick of regen.

[spark sigil]

Okay. Thanks 🙂 Maybe I try 3 eitr food. I see "Mushrooms galore á la Mistlands" have good hp ans stmaina and have eitr also. Will see.

[drowsy crane]

Let me know how it goes 👍

[spark sigil]

I will. Thanks

[grave lodge]

I've noticed a sort of terrain transition when you see a piece of distant terrain and get close to it; it tends to like mesh and mold into the ground. Is this an LOD system? Is there a way to configure it to make it seem less jarring? As sometimes I'd see a large hill in the distance and it turns out to be a super flat plains or such

[tacit breach]

I just assume its my PC dealing with rendering so much.

[marble pagoda]

nah that's just how the terrain system works unfortunately
don't ever assume you can see shit past a couple sectors away (like 120m)

[keen mango]

Hello, I'm new to valheim but I'm just curious if there was a way to make moving animals like Boar easier?

Like a Cage to place on a boat or a leash or tie-down of some sort to move and guide the stubborn animals XD

[tacit breach]

Closest is once you have the harpoon. Aside from that, the easiest is to get them to chase you to where ever before taming. Boating them is another set of challenges.

[keen mango]

So your saying I should have tried harpooning before taming? Because I don't think my harpoon has been latching on post-taming.

[tacit breach]

No, you can harpoon them after taming. Works best then anyways. You just have to turn on pvp to do it after taming.

[keen mango]

Oh. Good to know, thanks 🙂

Still wish there were cages or something though for long distances

[tacit breach]

Yea, they may do it eventually. I imagine regardless its going to be low on priorities compared to getting this all to 1.0.

[keen mango]

Fair enough 🙂

[tacit breach]

Yea, its hard to say for sure about anything. They have added a lot as it is, that likely could have waited until after 1.0. I don't follow their blogs, etc... nearly close enough to even guess at how they decide on what to prioritize vs waiting to do.

What's the safest way for me to go AFK near a greydwarf spawner? Is being inside, away from the wall, without any benches/fires/lights good enough? Is up in a tree or down in a 2x2 hole better?

[tacit breach]

IF your making yourself a plaform, that is safest, as long as troll doesn't show up. They can fall down into holes on top of you, so thats not very safe.

How should I find somebody to coordinate individually with to play with me on a new world? Is there a place in this server for me to find anyone who will do that with me?

[regal wedge]

About to fight Yag. Loaded out with med health and stamina potions, fire resists mead, rat mead, padded armor and black metal, feasts for food, and i read someone said you can dig a spot out under the altar to rest at so I did that too. Anyone have anything else to mention about the fight?

[true steeple]

If you made silver sword or frostner the spirit damage will allow them to do better than black metal weapons.

[regal wedge]

I still have frostner. I heard the spirit damage is DOT. Will it actually do more if I just go ape on him and swing my stamina bar out?

[true steeple]

Spirit and fire don’t lose damage for hitting already affected enemies, only poison does that

[regal wedge]

So basically the spirit DOT can stack is what you mean?

[true steeple]

yes, new damage is added to the unticked damage

And then the damge per tick is recalculated

[regal wedge]

oh ok that makes sense. Does the slowing passive work on him as well or is that too much to expect?

[true steeple]

That’s based on enemy max health so it won’t do much against bosses

[regal wedge]

Didn't know that either 😛 Much appreciated

SO CLOSE TO DEATHLESS

GOT STUCK ON A DAMN ROCK AND GOT MOUTH LASERD

he heals pretty fast. I had him at like 10% and just in the time it took me to eat and get rested (had portal nearby) he already healed up to 20%

[clever loom]

Hello all, I'm looking to find information about something.
I currently have a server with a few players and we started with NoPortal on.
As time has passed, we set conditions and goals to allow 1 Portal between two Main Hubs, unanimously agreed upon.
What I'd like to know is, if there is any way to place one usable Portal while keeping the NoPortal restriction up.
The objective would be for just that one to work.
Is it possible at all? (I have console access).

[small temple]

Any tips for mountains?

Or bog witch

[steady viper]

if the server's setting is set to NoPortal (as in, they are disabled), nothing will go through even if you build one. At most you can turn on portals and agree no one will build any other portals besides the one you all agreed on

[steady viper]

warch your stamina and pay close attention to sound cues: running out of stamina while a wolf approaches is certain death.
Also take advantage of the atgeir's stagger and unless you're 100% you can survive, don't go out during the night

[steady viper]

none I'm aware of tbh, just keep exploring as many swamps as you can

[small temple]

I fuond it but i dont know what to buy from she

[small temple]

Thanks

[tired root]

Buy everything at least once: you gain new recipes for new meads and feasts which can be useful. Also with serving tray you can place foods, meads and feasts without the need for item stands, although feasts must be placed anyway to be able to eat from them.

[small temple]

Thanks very much

[tired root]

Also as you progress the game there will usually be at least one new purchasable items after each boss defeated, especially after mountain boss there will be also one nice item as ||material for new farming tool||.

[small temple]

Ok

[plucky pollen]

Can you sleep without setting your spawn point?

[tired root]

Afaik no, bed is claimed aka spawn point set before use.

[clever loom]

I was hoping there was some sort of Admin Console way to make a portal outside the server Keys. Thanks for your answer.

[remote tangle]

how do I report a bug?

[frosty frost]

Describe/show it in one of these channels #steam-bugs-discussion , #xbox-bugs-discussion , #mac-bugs-discussion 🙂

[tired root]

You can also leave a report straight to the game website: https://www.valheimgame.com/support/
As long as your game is fully vanilla, just to mention.

[mossy marlin]

is it now possible to make backpacks? i missed the last updates

[drowsy crane]

No, what gave you that impression? 🤔

[tired root]

Not in vanilla game.

[mossy marlin]

in earlier versions someone mentioned they might be adding that so I got curious. Well, it doesn't matter much since there are chests and a cart

since they added options into the game, is it possible to make it more difficult now? like perma death and hunger/thirst

ah nevermind, it's not possible apparently. But still pretty good.

[tired root]

There are several sliders in world modifiers to adjust the game for your liking, like difficulty, death penalty, resource multiplier, raid frequency and portal restrictions. Also some other options to enable/disable. Hunger/thirst mechanic is not added tho.
In death penalty slider there are hardcore options, hardest is for losing all items and skills on death but no deleting character like in some games.

[tired root]

There has been lots of discussions regarding inventory space, and on Twitter one of the devs asked for opinions how people would like it in Valheim.

[steep tusk]

What's Twitter? 😏

[tired root]

Xitter?

[mossy marlin]

ah nice, thanks for the info. I'll dive in later on

well, i guess losing all items and skills is pretty much a death penalty for some

[frosty frost]

That is why the world modifiers are there 🙂 you can drastically lower the skill loss and even keep equiped gear so recovery of your other stuff will be much easier.

[mossy marlin]

im glad they added that. Personally, I like to play in the highest difficulty settings possible with any kind of game

[tired root]

Yeah, just warning that higher difficulties are not currently very balanced, basically mobs gain +50% in hard and +100% in very hard difficulty, plus their size and attack speed is also increased and player damage decreased in both. As they deal higher damage some defensive tactics like parrying become less reliable.

[mossy marlin]

i see, thanks for the heads up

i'll go with a normal playthrough for now

[tired root]

Although one trinket increases parry bonus so it might make parrying bit more reliable in harder difficulties.

[frosty frost]

And it increases it by 50%, thats a lot 🤔

[tired root]

Have only played on hard difficulty but that was some time ago.

[tired root]

Yep, makes possible to parry even ||Lord Reto||.

[frosty frost]

Good to know 👀
Tho i think i will stick to the ol reliable roll

[tired root]

I tested with block level 75, with HHS foods. Sometimes both got staggered, so damage variance plays part on that too.
I'd imagine HHH might be much easier, didn't test.

[frosty frost]

Last time i tested HHH, lvl100 block with Carapace buckler i got staggered all the time 😄
-# Tho now i really dont remember which difficulty, i assume normal since i very rarely test stuff on other difficulties 🤔

[tired root]

Yep, without the trinket it's impossible.

[stiff bramble]

How do I fix the floating ship problem? #screenshots message shows my current frustration.

[frosty frost]

Did you try the classic restart? 🤔

[stiff bramble]

Do you mean the game or windows?

[frosty frost]

game

[stiff bramble]

Yes, the game has restarted, several times.

Just did it again, longship still floating.

[frosty frost]

And destroying then rebuilding the ship?

[stiff bramble]

? The ship is floating over deep water.

[frosty frost]

You will not loose materials if you are afraid of that, at least if you leave enough carry weight and space in your inventory

[stiff bramble]

Do you mean I need to build a pier, then a ladder, and then lose everything to chop it up?

[frosty frost]

I mean to get on the ship in any way, then while having enough space and carry weight for its materials to destroy it by smashing the mast, that way you will pick any materials as soon as it is destroyed.

[stiff bramble]

I see. Well, I guess it must be a feature I hadn't expected to encounter this late in development. Thank you for taking the time to answer, I appreciate that.

[frosty frost]

Almost all things you build will drop all materials you used to build it when you destroy it 🙂

[pastel cove]

Hi guys. New here. Is it possible to widen this into a river and make a small pond for my boat? does water occupy space provided for it?

[frosty frost]

The water is a plane that has the same height through the whole world, so if you lower the ground below the level in which you see the water now you will expand the stream 🙂

[pastel cove]

[patent arrow]

no but there are carts for extra carry options like transporting metals

[alpine tapir]

is there a way pre plains to get an exact quarter meter vertically in building?

[steep tusk]

Corewood?

[alpine tapir]

no thats half a meter

[steep tusk]

When you alternate it with regular wood?

And then place a floor or whatever on the bottom/top of the corewood snap point?

--Not to mention: Why do you need exactly a quarter meter?

[alpine tapir]

you mean like this? I suppose that works, though not as exact as I was hoping.

I want to know if theres a method to get a quarter meter up just so I can try stuff out in a more exact way. Learning about the wood door with its horizontal quarter and half meter stuff has been quite useful

[frosty frost]

Afaik there are no pieces with snap points quarter meter from each other vertically 🤔

[steep tusk]

I mean you can just hold Ctrl to not have snapping and place the first piece where you need it and then snap everything to that one.
Which is why I am asking what specifically you need exactly a quarter meter for vs. just eyeballing where you want the thing placed.

[alpine tapir]

well yeah of course you can eyeball everything but having exact snapping points helps with consistency and symmetry

[steep tusk]

Symmetry is just eyeball the first one and snap stuff from that first one over to the second one 🤷‍♂️ Perfectly the same height every time.

[alpine tapir]

that isn't always an option

[steep tusk]

Always

Viking's grasp exceeds their imagination!

[alpine tapir]

oh well good enough chandelier. eyeballed most of it.

[unkempt finch]

When i upgrade the Staff of the Wild , does the damage of the vines go up or only the damage from the impact

[frosty frost]

Only the projectile dmg i believe

[tired root]

Only the projectile damage, vines increase their damage based on elemental magic skill level.

So basically if you rely just on the vines you can save 3 jades by leaving it to quality 1.

[unkempt finch]

okeys thanks!

[alpine tapir]

anyone have any tips to make wood ladders better? I want to layer them for a smoother ascent and just wondering if anyone has figured out a good method.

[frosty frost]

If you dont need to stand on them put 45° beams on them 🙂

[alpine tapir]

yeah no im trying to use them as stairs

[frosty frost]

You can still climb them just fine 😄 but you will slide if you stop going up

[alpine tapir]

... I'm trying to make them better not worse.

[frosty frost]

Well, if you want smooth ascent then the ladders will sadly not work well

[alpine tapir]

i noticed that, so I'm asking if there are any tips to make it better. if there isn't then there isn't

[frosty frost]

The smoothness can be improoved by the beams 😄 but the downside is the inability to stay on them without moving

[alpine tapir]

you talking about like this?

[frosty frost]

Can be, tho you might not be able to walk in the centre if you want to use the beams

Walking slightly to the side should work tho

I used something similar in my greydwarf farm some time back, but it was two rows of ladders so the beam was in the middle

[alpine tapir]

...oh. yeah I think I'll just try to stagger the ladders instead then

[cosmic bridge]

Hey I know this question probably gets asked a lot, but do the Devs have any planned fix for the lag that often occurs in multiplayer either from too many instances or just having a good amount of players in the server? It's something that always tends to slowly kill my friends drive to play the game all the way through and I'm often left the only one playing a world.

In the meantime aside from that, are there any mods or workarounds that can help make the peer to peer connection more stable and maybe temper some of the lag?

[stone epoch]

The valheim wiki says the Darkwood arch piece still takes rain damage. Did Iron Gate ever fix that?

Its unbreakable.

I broke it

Just got some marble

Its in front of a tower?

Weird. I use them as a base for platforms to shoot soldiers from. Never been broken for me.

The light has been broken, but nothing else.

Also, it took me a millennia to break it.

are you on steam or what?

[surreal pagoda]

When you first hit a medium-large rock or ore deposit, it seems like it is initially just one "thing" (instance, I guess), and upon taking damage the first time, it splits into all of its chunks, that can then be damaged and broken individually... probably more instances? Thinking if it's worth "cleaning up" large rocks that are chipped when mining a nearby ore deposit etc, just to keep instance count from growing in the area I'm in?

[regal wedge]

i'm seeing here if we're friends on steam, we'll see each other's servers and can join that way

[warm fractal]

I see, lemme add you

[regal wedge]

not sure how adding works but my user on steam is bjornleifrdagr

[plucky pollen]

2 questions.

First one: Do ||Yggdrasil shoots|| respawn or is it supposed to be a finite resource?
Second question: Is there any way to make opponents wet other than pushing them into water?

[rocky sphinx]

they do recharge, yes
i think rain does the same?

[plucky pollen]

Not the roots, the shoots.

Also I am looking something to actively make them wet.

[rocky sphinx]

ah, then no i dont think

[faint osprey]

I think they do grow

[thorn spire]

I’m pretty sure the shoots are like trees, they don’t respawn.

[faint osprey]

really I though they did

[tired root]

Trees/shoots don't grow back, so they're technically finite, but still plentiful per world.
Enemy mobs only get wet by getting into water, rain only affects players.

[plucky pollen]

shame but thanks

Hey i have trouble hosting server can anybody help?

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server

[hard sail]

I bought the game a few hours ago, finally beat the first boss 1h ago after diying 10-15 times, did a small hut close to the river before the 2nd zone, was simply heating food and relaxing... then 15 mobs appeared with a boss... and they are way stronger than the ones on this zone, died twice before closing the game, I don't get the point of this... why was i attacked and why by this much ? they don't even let me alone if I got inside the house, they send toxi gaz inside to kill me, they're stronger than the boss... I don't get it

[white vapor]

You get raided on occasion. Before you killed first boss, you "could" have gotten raided by neck and boar, after beating first boss, you now open raids up to Black Forest creatures. So when deciding to kill a boss, one thing to take in to account is being ready for possible raids of those next level mobs. So you need to decide if you're experienced/skillful enough to deal with them, or maybe you have a good defensive set up. This happens through the whole game, so at least considering the next level raids you open up should be considered when deciding if you're ready to kill next boss or not.

[jolly sparrow]

Came back to the game from 2019. I had 300 hours in it back then. Now, a new playthrough finally made it to Mistlands. I grinded the black cores, drops, etc, and now just gathering materials to finish gear. I am losing motivation to keep playing, I really hated this biome compared to the OG's. Difficulty is fine. I'm just sick of seeing fog, I can't even build in this biome properly, even with wisp torches everywhere.

Is there anything later on progression wise that will allow better clearing of the mist better for more visibility?

[marble pagoda]

nope, you can permanently delete the mist with devcommands though eg. forcedelete 100 mistarea

[hard sail]

Huh... Game could tell you this... I can't continue they'll kill me on respawn

[jolly sparrow]

That's not what I was hoping for. I don't want to have to cheat to enjoy the game. I was hoping there'd be something in the Ashlands that would do it. I'll just move along to another game since I'm effectively done now. Thank you!

[marble pagoda]

valheim is definitely a game I consider worth modding to get the experience you want
its not PvP nor particularly skill expressive so I don't consider it cheating, but you do you!

[white vapor]

It's just a couple basics that once you understand, it's really not a problem at all.

[steep tusk]

If you take the Mist out it is just... The Lands. 🤔

[marble pagoda]

ah yes, the mistlands that have no defining features besides being foggy

[steep tusk]

Correct.

[white vapor]

It's like how scary movies are often at night, in thunderstorms etc..., the limited visibility is part of the theme. As a builder, it's not a place I would normally make a permanent base, but love it for things like an Evil Mage Tower and things of that nature.

[jolly sparrow]

I enjoyed the content, but now that I'm done with Queen I was hoping to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I am okay with light mist, but to have such little visibility isn't enjoyable for me. Kinda claustrophobic tbh.

[white vapor]

Sorta like the mountains, not really a "permanent" base biome type imo.

[steep tusk]

Mountain bases are my favorite 😭

[jolly sparrow]

At least snowstorms pass in the Mountains and you can see beautiful builds in the slight distance

[steep tusk]

The only thing I would think is feasible is if shield generators worked against Mist.

[jolly sparrow]

Now that's a great suggestion imo. Or an expensive upgrade to it would be fine

[tired arrow]

huh neat

[marble pagoda]

that's a pretty neat suggestion

[exotic quarry]

I'm fairly certain the answer is probably no, but searching hasn't given me an answer. Is there any way to relight these Dvergr wisp light posts? I found and rehabbed an empty keep and it's driving me nuts that there doesn't seem to be any way to rekindle this light.

[frosty frost]

Nope, we can't relight them

[exotic quarry]

I thought as much. Thanks! Still looks nice out there regardless.

[steep tusk]

oh yes

Hey y'all, I'm creating a trophy gallery/museum and the forest troll one appears brown instead of blue in inventory and does not show up at all when placed... It says it is on the item stand, but it's invisible... Others seem to have had the same issue but I found no solution to show the blue troll trophy... Any idea?

[steep tusk]

[queen siren]

Yeah, I use a bunch of mods

[steep tusk]

[queen siren]

Is it really just because of mods? 'cause it's supposed to be a vanilla item, no?

[steep tusk]

Highest of probabilities. Hence the channel redirect, as they will be able to help you more specifically.

[frosty frost]

Brown troll trophy is something from before early access release 🙂 have you used devcommands to spawn it in?

If you want the normal blue trophy its ID should be TrophyFrostTroll

-# At least iirc

[tired root]

Forest troll indeed is something that was on beta but only the blue troll remained. The trophy for forest troll is still in the game files tho but it has no model, which is why it's not visible.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, and i believe the blue troll was originally intended for mountains, hence the trophy ID 🙂

[queen siren]

aah used the "frost" version and it spawned and is visible! thank youu

[steep tusk]

Why don't devs just remove stuff from gamefile? 😏 😉

[frosty frost]

Why would they? It doesent hurt anything, and its fun to find stuff like that 🙂

[queen siren]

(Also wanna brag about the name of that spot, which is "Schafer's Kylls & Hydes", which involves selling the meats and hides from the hunter's kills, along with showing off all the trophies... Schafer like the actress Hunter Schafer, and a play on words with kills/hides and "Jekyll and Hyde" lol)

does exiting game autosave? i've always used save before exiting

[fickle skiff]

O_O they changed the map and now one of my build is crumbling because the ground is gone rip. Anyway I can spawn a huge boulder or something to save my build?

[frosty frost]

It should, but its always safer to save manually 🙂

[gusty rampart]

Whats this village? Why is there thsi circle with a spawner? I was trying to find a nice location in this creative world to experiment with buildings etc and found this

[white slate]

draugr village and skeleton arena next to each other

[frosty frost]

The circle arena is a new location added in tha CtA update 🙂

[white slate]

that's pretty cool i didn't know they can spawn that close to each other

[gusty rampart]

Is that normal?

[gusty rampart]

I see

[frosty frost]

You could use location DevGround2 SAVE, it will make a circular flat land somewhere around you up to the height you are standing at.
But think carefully before you do it since you cant remove it afterwards

[fickle skiff]

How large is the circular flat land?

[frosty frost]

Around 40m diameter iirc 🤔

I suggest to test it first in some other world so you see what it does

[fickle skiff]

I built so many base around those pre-ashland place T_T

[frosty frost]

You can use it multiple times to make bigger area 😄 just dont change your height

[fickle skiff]

I have so many bases that were on tiny tiny island to make it cute ahahha thanks

[fickle skiff]

Is it supposed to disable auto-save? 😮

[frosty frost]

Not if you put the SAVE at the end 🙂

But without it, yes, so you dont accidentally spawn it permanently

[woven horizon]

any idea how to fix this?

you'll also need around 160ish minimum for the next biome if you want to max the new pickaxe unlocked in 6th biome and build stations and other important things that need blackmetal, in plains you only need 20 for saddle plus cooking upgrade and whatever you want to do with axe and weapons / shield + people who love bm chests will need a shitton

[tacit breach]

You will likely accumulate a lot if you spend any time in the plains resupplying lox meat and berries. Then certain raids can give you a lot more .

I tend to be filling up a second bm chest before I finish Mistlands.

Me and my fiance are having issues trying to connect to one another in the game when he tries to join me it never asks for a server password and when I try to join him it says couldn't resolve join code. I'm out of ideas on what to do im on xbox hes playing on the xbox app on his pc

[ebon dock]

I don’t know where to put this question but I can’t get the Native Mac Valheim Server to work with Mac OS Tahoe 26? 🤔

[tacit breach]

Probably the dedicated server channel.

[dusk prawn]

does anyone know why the fire doesnt light up? even tho I put wood into it

[thorn spire]

I'm going to guess rain overhead putting it out.

or it's being smoked out by the smoke from your hot tub.

[frosty frost]

My bet is taht its raining on it

[solemn osprey]

Check that your version numbers match, and neither of you are running mods or the beta version of the game. If version mismatch, whoevers lower needs to try and update their game.

[dusk prawn]

Okay Ill have a look later

[buoyant glen]

Hey people, can anyone help me out and tell me how I would lower the death skill drain on my dedicated server? It’s with Valhost. I’m kinda dumb so explain it to me like a child lol

[steep tusk]

[buoyant glen]

Apologies

[limber patio]

Hey folks, is this supposed to be like this ? the arms when put on armor stand are..... fleshy... so to speak. It is not supposed to be fabric, at least it doesnt look like it should be. looks like skin

[frosty frost]

Thats just he redish lighting doing that i think 🙂

[limber patio]

its not

[frosty frost]

Seems good to me 🤔

[limber patio]

hmm.... maybe. I dont know. Plains lighting is also kinda yellowish. But the arms are very profiled here, which also makes it look like fleshy arms. Maybe if it was more white it would look better to me. Like a wolf cape white or something

[white slate]

how high fishing lvl you need to catch max quality fish?

[limber patio]

500 if you are bad enough

hard to say, always cast near you, and dont reel in when the fish is shaking/struggling

i fished lv4 grouper yesterday with fishing 8

[surreal pagoda]

Any command or other method to delete the leftover chunks of a big rock/ore deposit once you've gathered all the ones that are physicall reachable?

I imagine they just sit there under the bottom of the map forever taking up instance count for no reason

[soft mesa]

Hi, we need advice on server choice. We've paid for hosting at dathost.net, but after constructing over a dozen buildings, we're encountering severe lag. This affects basic mechanics like opening chests and picking up items. Can anyone recommend a website or host offering a proven, stable server that can comfortably support around 7 players who primarily focus on building?

[steep tusk]

#dedicated-server people would know best.

[frosty frost]

If you dont mind also clearing a decend area around the burried pieces of deposit then you can use the cheat sledge 🙂

[surreal pagoda]

I'd prefer not to 😄 But good to know it's a thing

[tired root]

Lava blob vial might reach the rest of it.

[frosty frost]

That is the only way i can think of that would allow you to reach under the dig limit, but theoretically the forcedelete command may be able to, will go test real quick

[surreal pagoda]

I figured maybe there would be something like a "/delete [whateverthenameofthechunksare] [radiusfromplayer]" type command

[frosty frost]

Go directly above the leftover pieces and just put forcedelete 10 in the console 🙂

[surreal pagoda]

Oh, I see - if that deletes everything I suppose it would work

Nothing left in the crater anyway 😄

[frosty frost]

Yep 🙂 just check if the pieces are really gone, and if not, increase the number in increments of 5, that should eventualy do the trick without destroying anything else around.

[surreal pagoda]

Check with stagbreaker etc?

[frosty frost]

Or using freefly command, that will give you a camera view which can go through the ground 🙂

[surreal pagoda]

Thanks 🙂 Not too familiar with commands at all, just feels bad to leave things around that do nothing

[frosty frost]

[gusty rampart]

Is there any way to remove a indestrucable tree thats in my way?

[frosty frost]

In the swamp?

[gusty rampart]

Yes

Pls say yes. Its a annoying tree. I just wanna remove that one tree

[frosty frost]

Try forcedelete 10 SwampTree2

[gusty rampart]

Alr tried. It doesnt remove it

[tired root]

How exactly in your way? In front of entrance of sunken crypt?

[frosty frost]

Hmm, will test it too, give me a minute

[gusty rampart]

No. Its in the way as in i have to run around it whenever i wanna get in the swamp. And building around it only cause enemies to break it back down after. SO i wanna remove that tree so i can walk by easier. (I mean its not really a big problem but its annoying.)

[alpine geode]

Does anybody know if the Brew of animal whispers also affects egg hatching time by any chance?

[tired root]

Only taming.

[alpine geode]

ok thanks

[frosty frost]

Try forcedelete 15 SwampTree2 again, stand as close as you can to the tree you want to get rid off and increase the number slowly until it works 🙂

[gusty rampart]

Hell yea!! It worked!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! FINALLY!! WOOOOOOOO! TAKE THAT TREE

[frosty frost]

Btw, totally unrelated, swamp without any swamp trees looks strange xD

[still oxide]

how do i prevent the mobs spawning inside my tamed animals habitat?
this is a question for during a raid
a slime spawned literally inside my board habitat and killed all of it

[steady viper]

buildings with the "base" attribute is what you need: campires, workbenches, torches and any kind of lighting prevent spawns within at least a 20m radius around them (workbenches increase their radius with upgrades by 2m each).
You could place torches around and inside, or you could bury a campfire, which is probably more cost-effective and pleasant to look at.

[still oxide]

does bonfire counts?

[steady viper]

yes

[gusty rampart]

What is this? I suddenly got thsi mark on my map and heres this building. Is that smt for a mission or so?

Ah. Nvm. This is a witch and her shop. But why was she suddenly marked on my map?

[steep tusk]

For the same reason the other traders mark themselves on your map?

[gusty rampart]

They do?

[steep tusk]

Yes.

[gusty rampart]

Oh. Didnt know that.

Thx

[molten ocean]

What do you guys do when you're feeling unmotivated to play? I'm stuck in the mountains because the storms make my laptop lag too much to play and this slows down my gameplay so much that it's no longer enter the game

[viscid vapor]

I've been watching my brazier in anxiety for 5mins now and pray to Odin that it finally holds.
Redesigned the ceiling like 10 times now and was always 1 beam short, edging instability

[chilly jungle]

Any tips for leveling the dodge skill? It seems very slow to gain exp.

[frosty frost]

Stopp blocking and parrying and only dodge 🙂

[steady viper]

probably easiest to do so with TWIG

and whenever you go out exploring just dodge everything you can dodge...

[frosty frost]

TWIG will actually be quite bad for just "power leveling" since he changes timings of attacks, just finding a random greyling or any enemy that has only one attack timing will be better for this purpose 🙂

[true steeple]

The best tip is probably not to worry about it, even at dodge level 0 you'll be saving a lot of stamina with the new perfect dodge system

At dodge skill 100 you're only spending 2.5 stamina less for each perfect dodge so it's not a big difference

[rapid shale]

i'm trying to dig out this copper vein but this side of the trench is very high and i can't mine it any lower, is there any way to get it lower, it would really help with the mining

[frosty frost]

Sadly no, you have to mine copper itself at this point

[rapid shale]

also where and when should i start making my "main" base, i have one in the meadows rn but its just a rectangle and kinda far from the black forest, i wanna make something fancier when its a good time

[frosty frost]

Good time is usually in fifth biome since there you unlock some fancy materials 🙂
And meadows are good, bonus points if somewhat near ocean.

I personally just stay at the first base and upgrade is as i progress

[rapid shale]

Thanks a lot 🙏

[compact heath]

Asatru gave great tips, lots of people do in 5th biome, and near ocean is generally a great idea. Sometimes I build a base in every biome but that would be too much for a new player unless you absolutely get addicted to the building and can't help it, its not needed haha. I also do a controversial thing often like building a base in the third biome as my first proper base, and only live very small footprint wise in meadows at the beginning like a renovated mini house etc., basically one of the limits is your creativity. Some people also just expand their meadows base and never leave it behind, just adding to it over time, its all valid to do, make your own adventure 🙂

[outer crystal]

Do portals get damaged by rain?

[white slate]

no

[outer crystal]

Awesome

[spare ravine]

I generally spot some ruined tower in the black forest and build my second home in it.

[white slate]

are there any other ways to get chains than wraiths and finding them from swamp chests?

or am i gonna go on wraith hunting spree

[thorn spire]

You're gonna need the iron anyway. You might as well go for the dungeons.

[steady viper]

Half of my chains come from raids, actually. I know it comes down to luck, since you can't really choose which raid the game gives you, but you can quite literally spare yourself a couple nights in the swamp with a single raid

[thorn spire]

I got that raid once.
