[tired root]

You need to set up dedicated server. Check https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736 for more info. 👍

[uncut owl]

thanks!

[uncut owl]

is there a vid or something that u reccomend?

[tired root]

I'm not an expert in that regard, but in short you can set up server running from other computer or use 3rd party service.

[uncut owl]

ok, ill ask in that channel, thank you

[marble roost]

Generally people pay to have a company host a server 24/7

something like $10-$15 per month

[frosty frost]

I found few local ones for like 5-6 Euro 😄 So best to search locally

[oak remnant]

Hello does anyone know if enemies in charred fortress respawn? If yes does spawn proofing with workbenches work? I wanna build a base in it 😄

[frosty frost]

If you destroy the spawners and then place workbenches ornother base items to supress general spawning then you will be alright 😄

[oak remnant]

Yeah i got it fully cleared out right now, thanks!!!

[undone bobcat]

Do you need to be in the area when you begin the process of wolf taming ?

[tacit breach]

You need to be near them, yes, Not so close as to aggro them.

Using the Animal Whispers mead can cut down the time by 50%. So 15 minutes vs 30.

[undone bobcat]

aight thank u

[tired root]

Note that the duration is 10 minutes for the Animal whispers mead, so you need 2 for 15 min taming, otherwise it will take 20 minutes after 10 min duration of the mead.

[cedar valve]

Yeah gotta be like 60 meters of them and what Robert sajd

[unborn anchor]

for some reason i cant build a roof because everything is unstable, any help?

[tacit breach]

You don't appear to be going too high for just wood.

You might be pushing it over the water, but I don't think so.

[frosty frost]

Yeah thats wood limit, try to get some core wood from BF 🙂

[cloud otter]

Is there a way to increase the exp loss on death while keeping my equipment?

[frosty frost]

Do you know how to use commands?

[cloud otter]

I do

[frosty frost]

Then its setkey SkillReductionRate 100 and just change the number, it is an percentage 🙂

[cloud otter]

Will it persist between sessions or do I need to reinput it every time

[frosty frost]

Should persist on the world you use it at i believe 🤔

Not 100% sure on that tho

[cloud otter]

Ty

[lapis terrace]

it should be sticky yes

[uncut owl]

hey, whats the difference between server name and world name?

[placid valley]

Is thier a way to check wat version the world was made in?

[cedar valve]

There is no built-in way to check the exact version the world was created in, but you can determine the world's age using the file's creation date, the day counter, or by comparing the world map to current game versions. You can also find the world's seed by checking its properties or using an in-game command, and then use the seed with a third-party tool to see the map's generated content, which can be a clue to its age.

[mystic lake]

Would BE actually really cool If the devs actually add dedicated Servers, so the worlds arent saved on someones Steam Cloud, rather the world IS saved on an own Server, Always annoying to wait Til my friend wakes Up and opens the Server to BE able to Play on it

[fathom nymph]

"The referenced script on this Behaviour (Game Object '<null>') is missing!" Guys what does this mean? My friend is trying to boot the game up and getting this message, it was working fine a couple days ago when we played but it's just black screen and cursor icon right now

[mystic lake]

@fathom nymph i would suggest to verifiy the game Data via steam

That fixes Most problems

[tired root]

But you can set up your own dedicated server or use 3rd party host service.

[mystic lake]

WE both have No clue how to do so

[tired root]

You can ask in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550119191412736. 👍

[mystic lake]

Thooo our together world IS 400 days old by now

WE dont wanna start new now

[tired root]

I believe old world can be turned into dedicated world.

[mystic lake]

Ooooo

[cedar valve]

Jeez

[mystic lake]

@cedar valve We've been playing for 3 weeks straight XD

WE are new to valheim

[cedar valve]

How!?? Thats insane 😭

[cedar valve]

How far?

[mystic lake]

Game IS absolutely fantastic

WE are on the way to the ashlands

But gotten completly obliderated by the Mobs there, so WE currently upgrading our gear

@cedar valve

[fathom nymph]

Thanks it worked!!

[mystic lake]

@fathom nymph Ur Welcome thats a fix to Most problems with Steam Games. Prolly a corrupted Data or something, verfying datas replaces broken or corrupted datas

[spare ravine]

pretty sure you can do that already

oh someone said that already

[soft notch]

I was just about to say the same thing, then read down haha

[worldly fjord]

Hey I have been grinding my sneaking skills for awhile but no matter how high I get it birds fly away before I can get them with my knife

[frosty frost]

I am not even sure if sneak affects birds, since they are not classic "mobs" 🤔
Usually its a good idea to use bow or spear to hunt them 🙂

[steep tusk]

Spear them out of the air without losing your spear 😏

[true steeple]

If you approach them from the front with a jump attack (a real jump attack not just the secondary) maybe you can hit them with a knife

[steep tusk]

Alt attack of Berserkir Axes would be overkill 😄

[true steeple]

Sledgehammer would probably be best

[tacit breach]

Pretty sure it doesn't. Even with sneak of 50+ I can't sneak up on them.

[worldly fjord]

Maybe. I'll try that. Though I'll probably just use a spear eventually. Was just trying new things

[subtle parrot]

Wait til it's raining

[tacit breach]

Raining and night time are the best times to hunt birds for feathers.

They don't take off until your practically on top of them, or the sun comes out.

[frosty frost]

Tbh i dont really hunt birds anymore, i get enough feathers from chests 😄

[tacit breach]

I probably do as well. Just old habits die hard. I still use bows enough to get my skill into the 50's by Mistlands.

Gjall need to die as fast as possible.

[subtle parrot]

That and chopping trees for coal and firewood

[tacit breach]

I don't seem to get as many feathers from that as I used to.

[subtle parrot]

Just rng

[frosty frost]

True true, decent amount from taht too 😄 (when i actually get to it xD)

[tacit breach]

True. RNG can be very fickle.

[marble roost]

I remember seeing someone kill a flying bird with a fishing rod

[tacit breach]

Only times I have ever killed flying birds was completely unintentional. Just pure luck.

[near glade]

Is there a way to disable the events that scale with bosses defeated?

[steep tusk]

Raids can be disabled from the world options menu before loading in.

[near glade]

Sorry, a bit clumsy with this. It's a dedicated server.

[subtle parrot]

The server host would need to change the settings

[near glade]

That'd be me

I edit the headless server cfg I imagine?

[subtle parrot]

I'm not sure about that, maybe someone in #dedicated-server could help answer that, if you are the host you should be able to just change the setting in the menu of the host machine i would assume, if you're using a 3rd party host you would need to request them to change it, through their apps or sites.

[near glade]

Thanks, I'll ask there

[cedar valve]

Sick, ashlands gets better

[atomic roost]

what can i do if i keep getting incopetable version on joining server?

[tacit breach]

Depends. If the server is using mods that require everyone to have it installed, that is one reason. Another is one of you have an out of date version of Valheim. Is your copy on Steam?

[placid valley]

How does one make windows?

[cedar valve]

Specific walls

I think

[tired root]

Crystal as material.

[placid valley]

How to survive the moutains cold temp?

[soft notch]

Frost mead, or fire, or armour that gives resistance to cold

[placid valley]

Thanks guys

[inner maple]

Is there any way to make this menu more readable? remove the "mead base" from all of them, or give it more space?

[stoic trench]

You could pitch your thoughts into the #suggestions channel 💡

[inner maple]

Oh does the team actually check discord? I hadn't noticed there was a developer role, I submitted it as feedback on the website but I'll throw it in there. Thanks!

Missed the bulb and gotta wait 30 minutes, will probably forget. RIP

[spare ravine]

they do. Also your suggestion has been suggested several time already and I am certain the team is well aware of the issue.

[tacit breach]

I would love it if they are able to make everything easier to read.

[untold gate]

I need help with a modpack. Raids happen but during the raid the raid enemies never spawn. I can show all the mods and configs that I'm using

[soft notch]

#mods-issues

[slate charm]

hello, can someone help me to increase max carry weight? ive tryed two mods (skilled carry weight / useful paths) but i couldnt manage to simply increase the max carry weight 😅 . is there a simple way?

[inner maple]

Would you mind linking me to a single one of them? I searched and I don't see anything about the ketill or the naming of the mead bases in suggestions

[tired root]

There are 4 ways to increase carry weight, easiest and most permanent is equipping Megingjord purchased by Haldor which grant 150 carry weight.
Other 3 ways are temporal buffs: troll endurance mead grants 250 cw for 5 minutes, Moder power 300 cw for 5 minutes and Corpse run buff 150 cw for 50 seconds.

[inner maple]

I think they're looking for ways to go beyond that maximum
@slate charm Try the mod PlecakDlaCweli
https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/TeamCweli/PlecakDlaCweli/

I just tested it with 0.221.4 - Call to Arms:

[slate charm]

thanks for the reminder, i was looking for a modded way though.
i remember searching the merchant can take quite a while, and early game is a chore with 300 lbs max weight

[tired root]

Well, you can ask in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 for mod(s) that add more ways to increase it.

[inner maple]

The only thing that mod does is give you 9999 carry weight, give it a try

[slate charm]

cheers, ill give it a try

although 9999 feels a bit over the top haha

[tired root]

You can continue the conversation in proper channel if needed. 👍

[slate charm]

😄 aight

[tired root]

These main channels are meant for vanilla talks and questions mostly to ease the confusion of someone asking about mod and newer players wondering why they don't have same things in their game. So https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 and https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599 are dedicated for the mod talks.

[slate charm]

gotcha👍

[mystic lake]

I mean

I would rather say, they dont need to particulary need to make IT more readable, rather give US a search Option which can give US they recipes via keywords

[inner maple]

I know when I joined the server I did the exact same thing, not seeing the two mod channels at the very end of the list after some completely off-topic stuff where I stopped scrolling. I think if they were next to the "help" channel people would see and ask there instead
And further, there being one "help" channel sort of makes it seem like all questions should go here, so maybe a "mods help" channel right next to this one would 100% fix it

[slate apex]

hey im really confused im using the wishbone to find silver but apparently silver just doesnt exist anyone know whats going on?

[steep tusk]

1. Are you in the Mountains?
2. Are you past the Obsidian Line?

Have to be high enough up when you active the bone for it to find silver.

-# Also please make sure you are activating it and not just having it in inventory...

[slate apex]

ive done all of that but every mountain ive been to has nothing

[frosty frost]

Just bad rng then seems like. Keep it up any you will find some eventually 🙂

[slate apex]

in a few years maybe

[olive ocean]

do they all stack?

[frosty frost]

Yep they do 🙂

[olive ocean]

sick

is there a sheet for buff/effect stacking? or is wiki accurate for that?

[frosty frost]

Dont think so. But what it has in accurate in overwhelming majority of cases.
Which effects/buffs are you interested in? Resistances dont stack for example (with one exception). Other stuff... Cant really say from top of my head without examples. 😄

[tired root]

Same resistances don't stack, the stronger effect is in play, like Bonemass slight resistant to pierce (+25%) vs. Root Harnesk resistant to pierce (+50%).

[tired root]

Also there is no limit for how many buffs from meads you can have, except you can't use multiple stamina/hp/eitr meads during their duration/cooldown.

[olive ocean]

i'm interested in the data, so all

i still have yet to check that github link i got from here

[frosty frost]

Was it for Kirilloids data?

[olive ocean]

yep

[frosty frost]

Ah, then just fyi that it is lacking stuff from last few updates. Last update to that has been in November 2024

[olive ocean]

yeah

[marble roost]

If you don't want mods you can always just spawn in a meginjord at the start of your playthrough

Could also devcommand to give yourself moder power or some troll endurance potions early

[olive ocean]

vanilla with sprinkles

[ocean pagoda]

Hello! Is there a black forge level 5,6 upgrade? I only discovered til lvl4

[tired root]

Black Forge has currently max level 5.

Mistlands offer 2 and Ashlands other 2.

[honest cedar]

Yo anyone know why my chickens are not eating in the chicken tower farm

[ocean pagoda]

Ooh so i cant max out my slayer? Only lvl 2?

[frosty frost]

If its the enchanted one, yep, max is 2

[ocean pagoda]

Okay, thank you!

[tired root]

Basic Slayer has max quality 3, any enchanted 2.

[upper cosmos]

is there a place to put pictures?

[marble roost]

[placid valley]

Any tips for finding crystal n the other stuff in mountain outside the wishbone?

[steep tusk]

Crystal is in caves.

Define "other stuff" and can give more specific answer.

[hollow ingot]

Im having trouble getting players to connect to my player hosted modded world, Im not sure what mod is causing a data overload that times them out, could someone here test it out with me if I sent the modlist profile, the players im with are busy atm

Getting no replies in #mods-issues

[steep tusk]

Doesn't mean bring it to the wrong channel.

[hollow ingot]

Was worth a shot

[olive ocean]

if i use sop bubble, what is best to stack with it? i'm just up to mistlands

just damage negation wise

[frosty frost]

If you have it active then it will always get the damage as the first thing. Nothing will diminish the dmg it takes. On the bright side tho, you can parry literally any parriable attack no matter how much dmg it does. 🙂

[olive ocean]

so bonemass won't help?

[steep tusk]

Bonemass does nothing with blocking.

[olive ocean]

indeed

so the bubble is for blocking, makes sense since it has block values

and that also means dmg doesn't go through blocking and then hit ur armor ig huh

[placid valley]

The ore that is in the moutians i forgot its name so my bad

[steep tusk]

Very small amount goes through normal blocking. Shield bubble takes it all though.

[steep tusk]

Silver is the ore in the Mountains.

And it is the sole thing you use the wishbone for.

[soft notch]

I wouldn’t say nothing…
-# no stamina cost from blocking isn’t nothing

[frosty frost]

-# Technically you can also use it for iron in swamps outside of crypts, but crypts are still better source. Also burried treasure in meadows and mountains, but those are really not that usefull either. 🙂 So as Sev said basically just for silver, with few others situational, semi-usefull use cases.

[steep tusk]

It reduces the small amount of damage that gets through.
Which is literally something, but effectively nothing at higher block amounts.

[olive ocean]

i love using it to find skeletal remains in the mountains

[placid valley]

Thnx for the info

[vast hornet]

i died and im on my way to get my stuff in the ocean, what is this serpant enemy?

[steep tusk]

Is snek.

They bite.

[soft notch]

Danger Noodle

[rancid spoke]

should I get the carapace buckler or normal

Or are they not worth it

[steep tusk]

Carapace Buckler is broken af.

Highest parry amount (even better than Ashlands stuff) and is FOR SOME UNKNOWABLE REASON the only shield in the game that gives double adrenaline when parrying.

[marble roost]

Buckler for sure

Unless you really really really really suck at parrying

[rancid spoke]

uhh for what

[rancid spoke]

Alr thanks 🙏

[vast hornet]

maybe for using another language

might be english only

[marble roost]

Yeah think it times out for non-English sometimes

Hard to moderate languages that moderators don’t speak

[placid valley]

do the sea turtles re appear in the same spot if they submerge

[soft notch]

I don’t think so, no

[glad current]

Sea turtles?

[soft notch]

Kraken/leviathan

[glad current]

Ahh.

[steep tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/ayy-sea-turtles-pirates-of-the-caribbean-gif-2813627054324826566

AYE SEA TURTLES!!!

[glad current]

…what did he tie the turtles together with?
Human hair. From my back.

[steep tusk]

Back-hair rope in Valheim when? 😏

[glad current]

I mean we can grow flax. Linen rope when?

[steep tusk]

Growing flax on our backs when? 😮

[weary robin]

why are all my chikens trying to live in the same 1x1 instead of spreading over the space?

[subtle parrot]

Common issue with most tames, lox will pile up in a corner and if your walls aren't tall enough some will get out

[weary robin]

yeah i had to raise that wall for that reason

[humble ore]

Yo any one have any time to help organize the bace it’s definitely a treat to see if anyone is free

[karmic plover]

I'm free

[humble ore]

Sick I’m basically done with the food I just have to redo the rest of the storage

[marble roost]

No, they never resurface. Have to find a new one

[tacit breach]

I am surprised they didn't make that part of the mats for the Drakkar.

[worn barn]

No rope but there is thread.

I agree though, leaving rope out of a "primitive" lvl survival game seems odd to me too. I fully expected rope sometime near the beginning of the game.

[lament hinge]

is there a section for modding errors?

[eager ermine]

Are moats really the best when it comes to defending mob raids?

[drowsy crane]

No, they're the best way to avoid them. Just turn raids off if you don't like them.

[worn barn]

Bottom of the channel list to the left.

[lament hinge]

i'd just turn off raids altogether, i dont like ruining a pretty build with an ugly moat

[worn barn]

Make it a pretty moat 😉 - you have the power!

[olive ocean]

or an earth wall, can't be damaged

there are actual defenses that attack as well

[proper pawn]

Hey guys, can someone help me? How do I throw the spear? I’m new to the game and I didn’t see any specific setting for it. I know you can throw it, but I’ve never managed to

[marble roost]

middle mouse button. That button also lets you do special attacks with most other weapons!

[placid valley]

Is it the heavy attack button?

[marble roost]

Yes

[leaden lynx]

Does the server have a vc for the teams or no? Im in dragons

[tacit breach]

VC is usually handled via an outside app, such as Discord.

[olive ocean]

i much prefer mouse forward for heavy atk than middle mouse

[marble roost]

Same

[tacit breach]

So have you gone into settings and changed your bindings?

[steep tusk]

What is "mouse forward"?

[marble roost]

I assume front thumb button. At least thats the one I use

[steep tusk]

Not every mouse has a front thumb button though, no?

[tacit breach]

Yeah, I was guessing the left button as well.

[tacit breach]

Thumb side.

[steep tusk]

My thumb side has 12 buttons.

[tacit breach]

IF your right handed.

[steep tusk]

Stock mouse has no buttons on that side.

[tacit breach]

Not everyone gets the super complicated mouses.

[steep tusk]

Having buttons at all on the thumb is more complicated than normal.

[tacit breach]

The big button on the same side your thumb is, if your right handed. On a 2 button mouse.

[steep tusk]

Stock mice legit just have left click, right click, wheel, wheel click.

[tacit breach]

Your catching on. 😄

[marble roost]

Nah, but if you have it its nice

[steep tusk]

My point was that is why it is middle click by default.

Because "mouse forward" isn't a stock button.

[marble roost]

Ah I don't think anyone was opposing why the default is what it is. Just voicing their own preference

[steep tusk]

Preference? In Discord???

No... we can't have that...

😏

[olive ocean]

yeah i got a 12 or so button mouse for ark

[worn barn]

I love my G602 - I've got 3 left clicks, right-click, middle mouse, and 6 thumbs; I've used a variation on this ever since they started adding thumbs. I had a much older version long time ago that also had middle mouse tilt (left/right) but logictech dropped that feature along the way somewhere, not sure why, maybe longevity etc.

[steep tusk]

3 left clicks sounds like a fuster 😭

[worn barn]

It's 2 small buttons up on the front/left - normally used to adjust DPI on the fly, but I remap them.

[steep tusk]

Corsair Scimitar. Just put my numpad on my thumb and call it a day 😁

Makes selecting from hotbars in any game a breeze.

[olive ocean]

hm

[steep tusk]

Not for me, but if it works for you that makes us both happy.

[fluid bridge]

i accidently summoned a boss and cant kill it but it keeps on killing me its not dispawing

[subtle parrot]

Bosses don't despawn

[subtle parrot]

I would suggest leaving the stuff where it is and making new gear if you can't get it back

[fluid bridge]

no not that

hes tracking me on the map

[frosty frost]

Oh, is the bosses altar near your base?

[subtle parrot]

They know where you are when you're close by, they can sense you.

[frosty frost]

^That, basically when you see their hp they know where you are 🙂

[cursive dragon]

Which boss?

[fluid bridge]

elkyr

can i go on and old save

[cursive dragon]

Not sure. If you still need help in a bit I can hop on and help thump em. Most anyone here can

You could also go to the BRS, they might be more readily available

[tired root]

You can load backup save of your world and character before the summoning.

[fluid bridge]

i dont know how lol mind helping me ?

[worn barn]

Look for the button that says "MANAGE SAVES" - I think it's on the LOAD sub-menu but it's been a while since I've looked

[fallen dust]

A deer got trapped in my base, and im trying to use a harpoon to get it into a cage, but im worried if i try one more time (twice already so far) it will die, how fast if at all do wild animals regenerate?

[frosty frost]

All creatures regen at the rate of 100% hp per hour 🙂

[fallen dust]

perfect, thanks

[fluid bridge]

okay thank you man

[cursive dragon]

Now I know too lol

[fallen dust]

nice and safe now

[rain rampart]

What did bro do 🙏

Free my boy

i caught him in my farm tryna eat my turnips, its this or the chopping block

[steep tusk]

Danger link is dangerous.

[marble roost]

Might also help you to go into world modifiers (it’s a button you can click instead of loading up your world when you’re on the main screen) and lower the difficulty

game will only get harder from here

[clever maple]

can somebody draw on the map roughly how much of the bottom is fire nation?
I need an idea how much to not explore to keep the top open for the ice lands.

[steep tusk]

Don't go above this and you'll be fine.

(I understand you asked for an Ashlands line, but this more directly answers your root question)

[clever maple]

the queen is basically on the line. Should i look for another thats in the south then?

[steep tusk]

Going to Queen is fine, just don't go north of her 🤷‍♂️

[clever maple]

ty

[golden trout]

Is it worth it to max out drauger fang? It’s been awhile since I played and idk if there are more bows to get with the mistlands and ashlands and if it’s worth to just wait till then

[steep tusk]

Worth is subjecthive to the individual.

There are more bows, yes.

[clever maple]

there is.
But i did max it out, poison is solid for several things, and its not that costly to max it

[cursive dragon]

in full honesty i prefer drauger bow to spine snap because of stamina consumption, ashlands bow is def better tho imo

[steep tusk]

Spinesnap and Ashfang both do more damage in the Ashlands than Draugr does.

[cursive dragon]

in ashlands yes, before then I preferred the drauger fang tho

(I actually roll with arbalest so dont use bows as much)

[golden trout]

Also last time I played the mistlands hadn’t been released yet is it a big step up from the plains?

[clever maple]

I... use both. I have been messing with arbalest mostly though

at least to open

[cursive dragon]

yeah, its gonna be a learning curve. especially if you are going in truly blind.

[humble ore]

Yo to be real I’ve been playing for 2 years now and I’m done trying to find them and will trade trophies for them but i need a rancid remains trophy, a cultist trophy a fuling brute trophy and a chard warlock trophy to finish my collection does anyone have them like i said i have a bunch i can trade

[cloud otter]

On the topic of bows, is the huntsman viable into ashlands

I like the very low noise

[olive ocean]

cro never places markers 💔

[humble ore]

To be honest I have everything in the game except the atgirs and the crossbow is definitely king as soon as you can make it

[steep tusk]

If your focus is noise, Huntsman always wins.
However, in the Ashlands, it won't matter given just how many enemies you will be fighting regardless of noise.

[humble ore]

Exactly honestly health and mobility is key. That’s why I like the crossbow.

[steep tusk]

Arbalests are "king" in terms of single-shot damage.
In terms of DPS -- bows win and it is not even in the same galaxy as far as measurement.

[humble ore]

Ya but they eat Stan

Stam

[steep tusk]

Who is Stan and why are they being eaten?

[humble ore]

Already said it but stamina it just auto corrected

[steep tusk]

Stamina isn't an issue given the sheer blocksof it you get from later foods.

[humble ore]

Ya but running from a hord of enemies in the Ashlands it’s better to deal as much damage without using stamina

The the bow is better for taking fortresses

In just moving and shooting when in a bad spot crossbow wins

[humble ore]

Anyone with trophies they want to trade lmk

[cloud otter]

For sure ill look at xbows when I get to mistlands

[cloud otter]

Makes sense I guess my real question is if the damage bonus is really worth the cost and effort

[molten mirage]

If u have >60 level of archery, bow feels like a machinegun, better than crossbow.

Especially in ashlands, where spinesnap bow is super effective against almost all enemies.

[quick tide]

when does trading in valheim turned out to be a thing

[worn barn]

When you simply visit, or are visited by another player through an exchange of server name and server pw - that easy.

[quick tide]

i can imagine how it works, im just not familiar with the idea in this game

[meager vale]

Trading doesn't work unless you RP. Most people use dev commands.

[olive ocean]

no one needs to rp, what

[foggy condor]

where can i place mistletoe

[frosty frost]

Wall iirc

[foggy condor]

k

[frosty frost]

-# And please be a little patient before asking in multiple channels...

[marble roost]

Super effective? It does less than half damage against charred

[molten mirage]

It burns the charred tho.

[marble roost]

Still, having you damage reduced by like 55% does not sound super effective to me

[molten mirage]

Well, we're comparing it with crossbow which is also pierce dmg.

Context matters.

[shut jewel]

is it possible to escort tame boars with a harpoon?

[cedar valve]

I so wish you could build for me 😭

[cedar valve]

No, cannot move tamed animals with the harpoon

[frosty frost]

You can, you just need friendly fire enabled 🙂

[cedar valve]

Oh interesting lol, good to know, my lox mofos always wonder so far away

[humble ore]

I’ve been working on this build for probably almost 2 years now I have almost collected every item in the game. I’m only missing a couple of trophies and I’m just finishing up decorating then I have to do all the special stuff for the building like the beams and everything to make it look better and also have to level the ground around the building because I had to basically carve out a set of hills to build it

[cedar valve]

Jeez..

[humble ore]

Yeah, it’s for when 1.0 releases so that way I can set it up as a server world completely unexplored

[cedar valve]

Oh understandable

[humble ore]

It’s basically a museum/guild castle

[worn barn]

Hey @frosty frost You've been around long enough and I'm dying for feedback on my last post in #screenshots 🙂 - @humble ore you need me to bring you those trophies? DM me world/pw and I'll drop em off. I've got enough I'm using them for chess pieces lol

[humble ore]

Sent

[tired root]

Lox can be moved easier by riding on them.

[cedar valve]

I dont have saddles lol

[tired root]

You can make some when you have plains materials.

[cedar valve]

Im in the ashlands 😭

[tired root]

Then there should be no problems.

[wraith beacon]

Hi everyone 😄 I have problem with camp fire, it keeps lighting up and goes out by itself even when it has enough wood in it

[faint osprey]

its getting smoked out probably

[frosty frost]

You dont have enough space above it so smoke is smothering it 🙂

[wraith beacon]

Wow that exists 😮

[frosty frost]

Yep 😄 it can even damage you if you stand in the smoke

[wraith beacon]

is problem in beam going through chimney?

[frosty frost]

Is the beam in the middle of the chimney?

[wraith beacon]

Yea I suffered from that once 😄

[frosty frost]

If so then most likely, yes. 🙂

[wraith beacon]

I will test without it

thank you

[humble ore]

I just went through and made both types of saddles and keep them chilling on my base just in case I need them to move animals. I honestly don’t use it like a mount because they haven’t put anything in the game to make them stop in one place when you’re not riding them

[cedar valve]

Lol oh?

[humble ore]

Ya it’s a little dumb that you can ride the asksvin across lava to mine but once you get off he goes and attacks something and you’re stuck

It’s cool to have a bodyguard, but it would be better if you can call it to you or if you could just tell it to stay in one place

[cedar valve]

Lmfaop lovely

[cedar valve]

That would be so nice, maybe the devs will add that one day

[humble ore]

Right 😂

Yo devs if you listening in the deep north drop some kind of horn that calls and disengages any mount around you with a saddle and make a maximum leash range for those animals so the horn can always work kind of like how you made the sickle for farming 👏 it would definitely make it a viable option for travel and gathering

[worn barn]

#suggestions 😉

[humble ore]

Sick I tried I don’t know if it worked though 😂 a bunch of stuff popped up right after I clicked submit, and I can’t find it lmao

[worn barn]

Gotta add the 💡 at the beginning

[humble ore]

Got you

I’ll try again in 30

[worn barn]

Hai dozo

[vast hornet]

so.. uhh im goingto fight the elder and there is no shrime to spawn it where its located on the map

[topaz igloo]

Did you find the location before the CtA update?

[frosty frost]

Like, the mark on map doesent show the correct location?

[vast hornet]

yeah

[frosty frost]

Then you have to go to the vegvisir again and mark it again, because you most likely got the mark before CtA update which shifted POIs locations 🙂

[vast hornet]

what the heck is a vegisir

[frosty frost]

The stone that will give yout the mark on the map

[vast hornet]

yeah.. i dont remember that

havent played in awhile

[frosty frost]

There should be plenty of them 🙂 try to look into dungeons

and you can delete this mark

[vast hornet]

ooooh. that thing thanks

[true steeple]

this server needs a vegvisir emoji so people know what we mean

[worn barn]

#suggestions 😉

[frosty frost]

@lapis terrace Are there still emoji slots availible? 👀

[lapis terrace]

1000's

to be exact

[frosty frost]

Oh, my, that is a lot 👀

[lapis terrace]

well 250 total

[true steeple]

we need this and 140 more neck emojis

[stoic trench]

And maybe a Dyrnwyn emoji ❤️

[tired root]

Skull Splittur.

[stoic trench]

Oooh yeah, that’d be neat!

[frosty frost]

I think the vegvisir would really be usefull 😄

[true steeple]

as useful as 140 neck emojis?

[frosty frost]

Maybe more 👀

[worn barn]

Is there deathsquito? 🦟 Nope just a regular one

[worn barn]

@drowsy crane I was wondering if there was a deathsquito emoji I could use, but there wasn't a Valheim specific one I could access, but there was a regular mosquito one, so of the 141 or so available, I was thinking deathsquito would be cool. There might be one, I thought I've seen one, but I'm not nitro so I can only use base emojis and the :death didn't pull one up but I managed to tap in to the default one :mosquito....

[drowsy crane]

Okay, not sure why this is in #valheim-help -- you answered you own question.

[worn barn]

current, but brief mini-thread involving available emojies being discussed in this channel? I'll defend myself with that 😉

[drowsy crane]

Fair enough

[worn barn]

Thank you kindly.

[humble ore]

What’s the best farm spot for silver necklaces

I need some more of these treasure chests

[steep tusk]

Take the Wishbone around the Meadows and look at the gravesite looking places to see if it pings at all.

[humble ore]

Isn’t there a better place later in game I feel like I got a bunch of them somewhere else

[steep tusk]

I do not recall anywhere in the game having "a bunch" of them outside of the F5 area.

[tired root]

You can try picking meat piles inside frost caves, they have chance to drop necklaces.

[humble ore]

Ty that’s it i think

[placid valley]

What else do i need to unlock the bear armor?

[steep tusk]

Blueberries and the Trophy are the main 2 things if you have already killed a bear for the normal mats.

[placid valley]

Thanks n Yea i got a trophy from first bear n didnt get the chest or legs so was wondering

[marble roost]

Also sometimes get silver necklaces from wishbone in mountains

[pallid ether]

so i have beaten every boss in valheim is it now just messing around at this point

[soft notch]

Until the final biome and boss is released, yeah

[lusty anvil]

hi there, new to this discord here, but been playing valheim for a bit- i have a question for anyone who's tried this

my friends and i started a new game a couple weeks ago with the server under my end. but i started having pc issues that would cause my entire pc to crash within 5 minutes of having it open

so we decided to try and swap ownership of the server to my bf's end, but we're not sure the best way to go about it

bf has the world files necessary, but i still cannot connect to the server on my end

is this a case of conflict because i still have the original world files? or due to cloud save?

[compact heath]

There should not be a conflict if he starts it as a server and has all the right files the db and fwl file it should work 100%, he can start it successfully and you get an error when you try to connect? Have you got the right password?

[lusty anvil]

it didnt even give me the password prompt lol

but we figured it out, i had to move my old world files out, and disable the cloud save

[compact heath]

oki great, enjoy the adventure

[molten orbit]

I have to ask. I never have issues at any part of the game. But when I get to Mist/Ash I have the biggest struggle. It's like even with everything constantly maxed out and best foods/pots. Just doesn't seem to help. Is there tips or something I'm missing? Could it be rushing too hard?

[rain rampart]

I'm not at that stage yet, but I heard magic is a total game changer

So high magic foods and a good staff is key

[molten orbit]

I used all that. Still getting folded. I think the Frost Staff is just bad. Not sure

[frosty frost]

Frost staff is great for single enemies or very small groups (2 or max 3 mobs), for larger groups than that it really is not that good unfortunately, but in those cases Staff of Embers steps in 🙂

[rain rampart]

Did you think about all the weaknesses of the enemies there?

[cloud otter]

I think the frost staff might fare better in more crimson pastures

[molten orbit]

I don't mess a lot with weaknesses. I do neutral damage most of the time.

[frosty frost]

That is what frost does anyway 🙂 the most abundant enemies in ashlands take neutral damage from frost.

[rain rampart]

Yeah that's where you went wrong. Do a bit research on their weaknesses, will probably help you a bit.

[frosty frost]

Meh, if they are playing a mage then telling tham to use dmg that is pretty much on no staffs is kinda... meh.

[molten orbit]

Yeah. I was using magic and it's enough carrying so many staves.

[frosty frost]

You could get silver sword or mistwalker as a last resort close quarters option tho 🙂

[molten orbit]

I did kind of learn. You either do Elemental or Blood. Doing both is basically a no no.

[frosty frost]

Eh? Not really, you should pretty much always use bubble shield as a mage, it basically acts as your hp.

[molten orbit]

I mean that yes. I was referring too summoning. It's so much magic and you spend so much time waiting by the time you get stuff summoned and shielded you rarely have time for elemental.

[frosty frost]

Ah, yeah, summoning (skeletons) is semi-useful as distreaction for enemies, in ashlands at the very least, in mistlands they still can hold on their own especially if you help a little.

[remote tangle]

just entered ashlands, is the wavy effect all the time? it's already making me super nauseous

[frosty frost]

I do believe so, yes, its showing how hot it is there.

[cloud otter]

I thought there was an accessibility setting for that

[frosty frost]

Not specific for the effect, but maybe one of the settings could help 🤔 you will have to test it out Syren

[remote tangle]

there's no accessibility setting for it

[cloud otter]

Aw my bad

[molten mirage]

Try riding an askvin in ashland

[remote tangle]

is that a serious suggestion cuz i do have motion sickness

[molten mirage]

No. It will make it worse

[remote tangle]

okay

[molten mirage]

One of the worst riding experience Ive had

[fallen dust]

anyone know how to fix the super annoying bug of random points not wanting to snap?

[molten mirage]

Snap point conflict. Remove the 26, place the beam, re-add the 26

[fallen dust]

was hoping it would be a you have a setting wrong or something lol, unfortunately not

[molten mirage]

It happens mostly on the diagonal pieces

[fallen dust]

ive noticed while making a roof with alot of those pieces

[molten mirage]

Bruh, we have a carpenter here

[fallen dust]

lol

my builds normally look better before i add the outer layer

the skeleton is the easy part

[rain rampart]

The roof is the hard part

[thorny atlas]

anyone known how to raid to ashlands? I play with some friends and we get almost insta kill bc the enemies group together (sorry for my broken english 🥲 )

[faint osprey]

run around look for flametal ore (they are in lava lakes) and fortresses, avoid the enemies fighting them is pointless because more will come just run past them you will lose most of them especially if you run through a forest, voltures are scared of fire so hold a torch and they wont attack

[true steeple]

Voltures can't move during their attack animation so just walking back is enough to avoid damage

[thorny atlas]

oohh thx so much 🥹 ❤️ the big problem is the morrigan (i think is write like that i cant remember) we cant run fast enough

[true steeple]

When they use their swipe attacks you can jump to their side to hit them safely because the hitbox is low and they can't turn during that attack. Their roll has low damage so you can parry it safely even if they're starred

Just try not to get stuck on their legs, they have separate colliders

[thorny atlas]

ohhhh thanks for the info!! i'll use it wisely

[cursive dragon]

I'd say only thing i'd add to that is be careful of the lunge attack because it is kinda delayed, best to dodge roll to the side/run or just be careful of the timing.

[true steeple]

if you jump into it sometimes you can launch yourself with the movement

[cursive dragon]

really? I'll have to try that now lol, how far does it launch you?

[true steeple]

It depends on where you do it and how well you position and timed your jump

[marble roost]

No shame in lowering the difficulty if you aren’t finding the Ashlands fun

[tired root]

What gear you are having? Weapons, armor, foods etc?

[marble roost]

Also when first getting to Ashlands, make sure to make a tiny base right where you land for a safe area. Most importantly put campfires around the surrounding area as the first thing (they block enemies from spawning in a decently sized radius)

[half ridge]

How can I build this roof? Ask me if you need more screenshots

[thorny atlas]

carapace armor lvl 2 all, weapons: iron sledge (or frostner), demolisher, krom, himminafl and skoll'n'hati and for the food the 3 of us got mushroom omelette, volture and bonemaw

[thorn spire]

Use corewood poles for supports, you'll need fewer and should be able to get enough support.

[marble roost]

Yeah corewood is the move. Get it from using bronze axe on pine trees in the black forest

[thorny atlas]

we made a tiny base on the rocks but the morgen follow us and destroy it 🥲

[thorn spire]

don't even need bronze axe. Flint will do it.

[half ridge]

I used to get it just by rolling fallen trees

[thorn spire]

again, don't need. It's only finewood from birch/oak that you need a bronze axe for.

[marble roost]

Maybe set up some defenses around your base (ballistas USE TROPHIES WITH THESE OR THEY WILL SHOOT YOU TOO, traps). Also building on top of rocks seems pretty safe but it can be problematic if enemies break the rock. I like building with black marble on ground level, it's pretty durable and easier to fight enemies around

[thorn spire]

Stone axe will chop pine trees for corewood. So will a troll, of course.

[thorny atlas]

thx so much!! i'll try put some defenses around 🫡

[steep tusk]

#mods-discussion

[cursive dragon]

that, and building a earth wall around your base will be a lot safer.

[mortal charm]

WARNING: SEVER SCAMMERS!!!!!
I just joined a server a couple of days ago called "Valheim Freaks". They were really friendly to start, but after spending days on the server building my base and gathering resources, i've been kicked out for the strangest reason.... because I'm also on other servers with friends...???
Despite there being no mention of it on the server rules, they kicked me out beuacse i'm on other servers despite using seperate characters.
"ReadyPlayer7" is the name of the person who runs the server, and essentially banned me for no reason, cutting me off from all the work i did, stealing all my resources, and not even letting me say goodbye to the friends i made in the server. I just want to WARN all other Valheim players out there, this server is run by a GRIEVER!
DO NOT JOIN THEIR SERVER. THEY WILL KICK YOU AND STEAL ALL YOUR WORK!!!!!!
I feel like such a dummy for trusting that they were nice people.

[steep tusk]

Plz don't spam multiple channels, thank you 👍

[mortal charm]

Just trying to save people from what happened to me. Sorry!

[rain rampart]

Wow, this is deep.

[humble ore]

Yo, that sounds crazy. You need help

That was a question not a statement

So I think I might start a new body recovery squad type channel I have basically every item in the game and a decent size museum built so I can switch into any armor i need to help people in their world wherever they’re at in there play through

[tired root]

You can upgrade your Mistlands gear up to quality 3, have you crafted mechanical springs?
Mistwalker is pretty good option too. Has any of you tried magic?

[thorny atlas]

Not yet 😔 I tried magic but got wipe out so fast and so many times that I change for more melee weapons

I'll give magic another chance, maybe I was doing something wrong or not the most usefull things

[tired root]

If you have staff of protection it's very good defensive tool. And Ember staff has very good AoE.

[worn barn]

My buddy is a crazy good mage, he's saved my @$$ a number of times - I'm the sword n board heavy for him, but when those Ashlands mobs decide to pile on from anywhere and everywhere all it once it gets a bit dicey.

[tired root]

Jump casting helps with movement.

[thorny atlas]

We thought there was a spawn at first but they appear from nowhere and all at once 💀 very crazy biome

[worn barn]

He's a good twitchy player (we play the Wargaming titles, Elden Ring etc.) IDK how it does it but he swamps twixt 4 or 5 staves, something - skellies are flying, magic red bubbles, then out comes the ice lightning fire stuff, IDK what all if does but it's a constant barrage of various things.

[marble roost]

How do you be a crazy good mage?

Mage seems pretty straightforward to me

[worn barn]

See reply above yours 😉

[marble roost]

Magic kinda OP

[marble roost]

Hmm, I suppose so. I consider myself fairly good and I have no idea how to make skellies fly

Except maybe kicking them off a cliff

It's nice he's got your back 😎

[worn barn]

lol - methaphorically, as in he keeps them constnatly spawned, he can call up 3 now? 4? IDK what the max it, but yeah he just cycles through his magic sticks, one after t'other.

Man I've known this kid almost 20 years now, we been gaming togehter a long time, little bugger just turned 30 and finally got married. We've had each others back many times.

And in many ways the student has surpassed the mentor.

[marble roost]

A true story of friendship

[humble ore]

Honestly, with playing a magic build the most important thing is to constantly move. You’re not trying to fight anybody your summons are trying to kill them.

If you do a split build with the miss lands and Ashland’s feast, you can at least give yourself a shield and focus on Malay

(A lot of people like split

[tacit breach]

Once I figured all the mobs out, I still do just fine with melee. Which is good, since I did not enjoy magic the two times I gave it a try. I definitely would not bother with trying to split between them. I just much prefer melee.

[humble ore]

I get that so my favorite set of personally is the staff of protection your choice of crossbow the berserker, axes and miss lands and Ashland‘s feast and the best health food that you can make it wrecks especially if you use the lightning for your weapons and gives you a couple extra hits because of the shield and since you’re not using magic for anything else, you can just constantly pop the shield

And tbh the troll is the easiest way to take down fortresses and get the stone in the Ashlands

[true steeple]

Silver sword can be good to carry as a mage in ashlands, it deals more damage than mistwalker against charred and valkyries for 33% less stamina

great to swap to while eitr regenerates

[humble ore]

Ya i just have the lightning, crossbow and berserker axes lightning so they deal the most atm

[humble ore]

Honestly with the bill that I use I’m 100% fine in the Ashlands except for sometimes at night it gets a little crazy, but for the most part, I can go anywhere and do anything that I want the Ashlands and either pay attention to people or not

I should add that I don’t have any skills past 55 either

[wide bronze]

Just loading it up after a while, any tips for FPS at 5? This hasn't happened before, happens with or without mods

[slow harbor]

Trying to contact mods, not sure if I did modmail correctly, but a player is sending bad messages 🙁

[frosty frost]

If you got a little window with green stripe on left side, looking something like this, then it should be sent correctly 🙂

[slow harbor]

Thank you 🙁 hopefully they stop spamming

[frosty frost]

Just block them 😄 cant do anything then

[slow harbor]

they are spamming LFG and posting nonsense unfortunately, they got banned for cheating, me and the admin are trying to clean up the LFG post

just gotta wait for modmail I guess

[frosty frost]

Ah, thought it was DMs. ModMail will take care of it hopefully 🙂

[slow harbor]

thanks for the clarification!!

i was trying to use it to ping lol

[wide bronze]

Hah apparently it's the difference between my graphics card slot and my CPU HDMI slot. I've been trying to get HDMI CEC to work with surround and tired sick brain messed up

[wraith beacon]

I'm starting to think I shouldn't build a permanent base because my resources and bosses are scattered all over the map. 🙁

[marble roost]

Pretty early on you unlock ||portals|| which helps with that

[steep tusk]

That is the intent of the design, yes 😄

[marble roost]

But still moving to a new location and building bigger bases now and again is very useful and imo pretty fun

[steep tusk]

There are ways around said design, as many people use.
But it is intended to "base as you go."

[wraith beacon]

Yea but I am new player and I built starter one, and then rebult it before going for second boss. Yesterday I made new one near swamps and now I have to go to other end for third boss

But I can not transport iron back to first base

[marble roost]

Why not?

[wraith beacon]

To far away from original base to travel there and back, and cant use portals

[marble roost]

Building bases is just a question of transportation time vs build time I suppose. You can take a lot time building a new base near key resources, or a lot of time transporting them. It's really just preference

I usually try to set up my first big-ish base near as many key resources I can, but as a new player its kind of just learn-as-you-go until you figure out what is important

[wraith beacon]

Also I like when bases are aesthetic 😄

[marble roost]

No reason to build a base by boss though, everything boss drops is teleportable. Unless there's no iron at all near your first swamp base

[wraith beacon]

Yea 😄

[pale umbra]

With a longship you need around 20-25 minutes with a good wind to do a medium distance travel, with other ship you need a lots of more time

My base is near the start point, I take 3-4 stacks of iron at time and then make only a travel to the base with a lots of resources. The longship has got a lots of slot so you dont have any problems

[wraith beacon]

Yea that is a lot to move to island that has just meadows and black forest. Also I cleared most of island but I am attached to it because it is my starting point 🥹 It has beautiful location to make real viking village

[marble roost]

Game will also give you more options later on. Things making transport faster, letting you transport more, some biomes not requiring you to transport materials as much, etc.

[pale umbra]

Yeah, I prefer the starting biomes to build too

[pale umbra]

Yeah, not all the biomes needs a lots of material transport, like plains or mistlands

You have that problem on swamp and mountains

[marble roost]

After finishing black forest I like to scout for a meadows area with a nearby iron filled swamp and a tall mountain. Makes it very nice having like 5 minute transportation time to get things to my base while progressing those two biomes

[pale umbra]

On ashlands there is also the stone portal that let you teleport unteleportable items like ores

[marble roost]

hey hey spoilers

[steep tusk]

OH ASHLANDS THERE IS ALSO THE STONE PORTAL THAT LETS YOU TELEPORT UNTELEPORTABLE ITEMS LIKE ORES AND DRAGON EGGS

🙂

[pale umbra]

It is a good idea but you cant take all the needed materials here because you need a lots of iron and a lots silver

[pale umbra]

Yeah sry...

[marble roost]

works fine for me. I usually don't even need to clear out all the crypts until lategame for my iron needs. Like 10 crypts is plenty

Silver I don't need much of, usually just mine 1 or 2 veins. But even if you want things like fully upgraded silver sword one tall mountain should be plenty still

I do spend quite a while sailing around looking for that perfect spot. But that's fine because I also get to discover traders and get serpent and leviathan drops on the way

[pale umbra]

Both strategy work, every one choose what is his playstyle

[steep tusk]

Please don't spam the same message in multiple channels...

Especially since you already know it goes in #mods-discussion ...

[rancid spoke]

Any way to stop enemies from spawning?

[steep tusk]

Many buildables prevent spawns in their radius.

[frosty frost]

Player base structures, they usually have 20m radius around them that prevents spawns 🙂

[steep tusk]

Like workbenches.

[rancid spoke]

Soo spam workbenches

[marble roost]

Sounds pretty good. All mistlands magic super good, mistwalker is good too. Surprisingly silver sword is quite strong as well

[frosty frost]

Complete list here, but be warned, there are some that you might have not seen before, so spoilers 😄 https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Player_base

[steep tusk]

There are less obtrusive buildables, but yes 😄

[rancid spoke]

Oh cool campfires

that may look less horrid

[steep tusk]

Can also hide things inside of walls an such.

[rancid spoke]

does the campfire have to be lit? Im just trying to spawn proof an island in ashlands

[frosty frost]

Nope, it can be out 😄

[rancid spoke]

Oh dope thanks mate

[topaz igloo]

You can also slightly raise the ground and cover it so you don’t have a campfire anymore and just have a little mound

[frosty frost]

But you have to take care that some small part is still above ground, or it will break

[rancid spoke]

campfire seems like the perfect thing for this doesn’t take rain damage or damage from the fireballs and it doesn’t look half bad

[tacit breach]

They hide rather well in the biomes with grass too.

Once the fire is out.

[molten mirage]

U can put campfire, put a stone slab on top of it, use the stone slab as a base for some kind of marker. That how ppl make wide area spawn free.

[placid valley]

What does the obliterater do?

[tired root]

Destroy items inside and can provide coal as side product.

[marble roost]

trashcan for unwanted items, essentially

[molten mirage]

To ask for gifts from Thor

[cursive dragon]

It deep fries anything you put in there and turns it into coal.

[cloud otter]

Just use it for trash but don't use it for wood

[cursive dragon]

But what if the wood is trash? 🤔

[marble roost]

Wood is never trash

But if the wood was trash it would go in there

[cloud otter]

Wood has its own wastebasket let's not make thor sort our waste

[marble roost]

Burning wood is never wasting it

If you want to waste wood you gotta plop it in the obliterator

[cursive dragon]

In which case Thor opens up the offering box and looks at all the crap you give him with a disgruntled look and tells Santa to leave coal inside for you.

[hidden coral]

help!! I started a new run recently and Im building up my base in the meadows. I heard my boars squeal like there was an enemy and suddenly all my smelters and chests got destroyed??? there was no raid, no enemies, nothing. I just turn around and suddenly everything that was in a chest has been destroyed. does anyone know what happened???

[marble roost]

If you left it unattended for a long time it's possible something came by and slowly chipped away at it

If it was a brief moment I'd think it was a troll or something, but odd if you didn't see it

No mods I'm assuming?

[hidden coral]

no mods, also everything was fine. I turned around for a split second to terraform and as soon as i turned back around, stuff was destroyed

thankfully none of my stuff is gone, i can remake the chests and smelters but its so weird

[marble roost]

Time to build walls around your base

[hidden coral]

No kidding!

[gleaming wraith]

Guys I have a question

Ideally, the main base should be on the first map?
and secondary bases will be spread across the new biomes?

I'm a noob, I'm day 56 and I still haven't killed the 2 boss
Can the attacks I receive at my base get worse over a period of days?

[hidden coral]

yeah the best spot for your first main base is the meadows. it helps to build a moat and have walls to defend your base

[hidden coral]

the types of raids you get depend on the bosses you defeat. so the more bosses you defeat, the most difficult the raids get

[gleaming wraith]

ok, I can have patience to build a super cool house

[hidden coral]

yeah, just be careful bc you can get raids while building

[gleaming wraith]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS1yHrcHoAA&t=660sI made this house, but I feel like it's already getting too small for my ambitions, do you have any tips, any videos of a really cool mid game house?

[hidden coral]

ohhh that one is nice! this channel has a lot of good builds but this one is similar to what im building https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcTqTwWqjNU&list=PLQsugRqm9BQZM1iFPFMqGAB6A-ZGZp4Bb&index=7

I'm thinking about stopping everything and doing this even if there are no stones yet

[hidden coral]

do you have iron unlocked yet? stone is super fun to work with but u gotta have the stonecutter

[gleaming wraith]

omg very nice !!

no, I dont have iron 🙁 , but I can use only Wood,

[marble roost]

Man went for a little walk found THREE 1-star bears

[olive ocean]

[lapis terrace]

what are you on about? 🤔

[pearl topaz]

What are some of the most usefull packs for valheim ive just started and want some to make gameplay better

[tired root]

In case of modpacks, you can ask from folks in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 👍

[edgy hamlet]

Why does my max hp affect what I can parry??

[true steeple]

All creatures’ stagger limit is a percentage of their maximum health. A players is 40%

A block fails if the damage is enough to stagger you between block armor being applied and damage modifiers being applied.

[unborn anchor]

You guys think me and and my friend should get full iron armor and upgrade them or its pointless? Cuz Idk how much time it will take us to get into silver era

[tired root]

Depends solely on if you want to have higher armor rate when you go to mountains.

[unborn anchor]

Well we're struggling with food alot so it would be nice to not get 1shot by wolves

Also we haven't killed bonemass yet because he decided to spawn like 5 islands away

[tired root]

What foods are you using?

[unborn anchor]

The most basic ones

Meat and blueberries 🥲

[tired root]

Ah. That's your biggest issue then.
Have you found carrot or turnip seeds?

[unborn anchor]

I don't know where to look

[tired root]

Carrot seeds are found in black forest, look out for white flowers. They should be quite common.
Turnip seeds are found in swamps, while similar looking flowers but yellow, but they're bit harder to locate due to the environment being darker and terrain being partially under water.

[unborn anchor]

Alr thanks, I'll give it a try later

[tired root]

Like these.

[slow harbor]

I would get as much armour as you can! Mountains can be very challenging and some of the enemies attack so fast that the extra armour helps.

for wolves, it helps to remember that high ground is very useful. They cant climb a straight up sheer cliff (either natural or viking made 😉 ). but be careful, because they can climb if its not a straight drop

the atgeir is also useful for stunning packs, but thats a last resort since theyre already so close

[edgy hamlet]

Ohhhhh thank you I wish I knew that before bear clawing bonemass to death, would've brought more health food 😆

[solemn osprey]

Yeah better food is one of the biggest tech upgrades to master from each biome.

[tacit breach]

Yep. HP is key to how effective your parry/block is.

[marble roost]

I almost always try to skip ahead one biome on food

[soft notch]

I mean, with raspberries, honey, and mushrooms, I didn’t get one shot by a wolf wearing no armour

[marble roost]

That doesn’t sound right

Maybe if you just ate and got lucky with random damage?

Wolf averages 70 damage

[grizzled leaf]

Question.

In a vanilla POI(one of the Black Forest ruined towers) has a vertical 2x1 block of stone in its construction. I'm...trying to figure out how to make this block, because using the picker tool just gives me a horiztonal 2x1 stone block and it is visually distinct from the stone vertical 2x1 stone column building piece.

Is there some way to rotate blocks on the vertical axis?? Or is this one funny block just the devs doing some shenaningans

[true steeple]

That’s their max damage, and they will deal down to ~86% of that

[soft notch]

No, can’t rotate on the vertical

[tacit breach]

Yeah, you can fake them with the columns, but its definitely not the same look, etc... It would be nice if we could rotate the stock piece into a vertical position.

[grizzled leaf]

I can't believe the devs are oppressing me like this.

[tacit breach]

I used to feel the same while we didn't have the dvergr doors. So maybe you too, will eventually get what you want. 😄

[frail rover]

what is the best pickaxe in the game ?

[marble roost]

||Black metal pickaxe.|| Acquired in plains

[frail rover]

what is the craft ?

[marble roost]

Wait, mistlands? I forget

[tacit breach]

You can't make it until Mistlands.

[frail rover]

ok ty guys

[tacit breach]

Need that wood for the handle.

[marble roost]

Arguably there are better mining tools later, but they’re not pickaxes

[tacit breach]

True. They need to turn that Ashlands blob into a bomb for us to use.

[marble roost]

I mean they did

[tacit breach]

They did? 😄 My wife hasn't noticed it in the table menu.

I've only noticed the catapult item.

[marble roost]

Bog witch items let you

[tacit breach]

I was guessing thats where we get it from. I just haven't seen a recipe, and neither has my wife. Maybe we failed to buy it, if its not the bottles.

[marble roost]

It’s the bottles

No bomb similar to the poison or Gjall bladder bombs tho

[tacit breach]

Then we have just failed to notice the recipe.

Don't think we have ever gotten a trophy from them, either.

Yeah, no trophy from them. Which I had been finding odd.

[tired root]

Vial, proustite powder and sulfur.

[tacit breach]

So they have no trophy? Thats good at least. Plus, yeah, we've definitely been failing to see that recipe. We have tons of those mats.

[wintry socket]

why arent my boars eating and breeding? this is 10m from the ground, the wolves eat and breed fine

[tired root]

Yeah lava blobs are some of the mobs that have no trophy.

[tacit breach]

The boar I see are pointing the wrong way. Plus that one turnip is too far away.

[marble roost]

Frost blobs too :(

[soft notch]

Made at cauldron? Lvl?

[tired root]

Workbench, I think level 1 is enough.

[soft notch]

Huh

[wintry socket]

they turn on their own, how can I fix that

[soft notch]

Wouldn’t have expected workbench lol

[tacit breach]

I was guessing work bench, since that is where the others are made.

[tired root]

All vial bombs (like previous bombs too) are made in workbench.

[soft notch]

By not putting the poor boars in a forced breeding tower

[tacit breach]

That one should be eating.

[soft notch]

Good to know, thanks

[wintry socket]

no 😠

[wintry socket]

it's not, what could make them not eat?

[tacit breach]

Not sure. I'm not seeing a cause for that one.

[soft notch]

They’re tired from all of their exercise

[wintry socket]

getting up that house did take a lot of work

even when without the wall they dont eat

[tacit breach]

Maybe the wood piece is a tad too low? So its acting like its behind a wall?

[wintry socket]

do they need sun or something

[tacit breach]

No.

[wintry socket]

oh, I removed the tar wood bar and they are eating

[marble roost]

||growths ||have gotta be goated with a ||staff of fracturing|| in deep north

[tacit breach]

My wife loves her tar bombs.

I have to fight with her to have even one trophy for my wall.

[marble roost]

They're very nice

But gotta downgrade to frost fellas in ashlands

[tacit breach]

She does too. That frost damage...

[wintry socket]

ayyy thank you chat

[tired root]

Frost blobs are not allied to Ashlands mobs as they belong to mountain faction.

[marble roost]

Yeah

Which is why you gotta downgrade to them from Growths. I'd much rather have growths if they attacked undead mobs

[subtle parrot]

I was thinking of making frost blobs to fight the queen with. Do they attack the queen? Just thinking to have something that will slow her movements a bit. Or probably a bad idea to use them in the enclosed space cause they'll still attack me?

[tacit breach]

They do, but my wife was not happy with their performance, so stopped using them.. We went back to using poison bombs and the Gjall fire bombs.

[subtle parrot]

Good to know, thank you

[coarse ivy]

does anyone know how I can change my character name? can I do it from game files or anything?

[tacit breach]

There isn't an easy way, like getting a barber chair, thats for sure.

I take that back,. Getting that chair is probably more time consuming.

[latent copper]

tadinhos burro e anta

[unborn anchor]

alr i made a small "farm" for carrot seeds, sadly i didnt manage to find the 2nd one in swamps

[tired root]

Better make that area more secure - mobs can destroy them if they see them.

[unborn anchor]

bet

[tired root]

Usually palisade wall should be enough so they cannot see them, but sometimes poison spread of shamans can hit them behind wall.

[cursive dragon]

You could also build an earth wall around it as well, or dig it down to protect it. Ain't pretty, but it works

[unborn anchor]

yeah i was doing that rn

[solemn osprey]

Moat isnt as effective, greydwarves will still chuck rocks at your carrots.

[tacit breach]

Even that weakest short fencing will block those rocks, though. You might have to repair them every so often.

[frail rover]

who know what is the best armor to craft for mistlands ? (i'm actually plains what is the best armor for start the mistlands)

[steep tusk]

Best is subjecthive.

[tacit breach]

I prefer heavy, since I like maximum damage reduction. Especially versus the attacks I don't see coming.

I do like the bear armor, for that stage of the game.

My wife did fine in the Vile armor in the Mistlands, and into the Ashlands.

[tired root]

You can go heavy (padded), light (vilebone) or mix of both, padded helmet and vilebone chest and legs was my attempt in last playthrough.

[tacit breach]

My wife does not use shields, so if you do, you should be better than "fine" in Mistlands with the Vile set.

[tired root]

Vilebone chest and legs are nice as they offer nice armor rate compared to Fenris and have no ms penalty, then with heavy helmet you gain higher armor without worrying the downside of the full armor set.

But the full set bonus is huge really.

[jaunty cypress]

is there no way to customise key binds?

[marble roost]

Think it depends on the keybind

[wheat sapphire]

so how long am i banned from joining vcs if i get a warning.

can anyone tell me pls

cheers

[tired root]

I'd ask that directly by sending DM to @lofty orchid.

[wheat sapphire]

alr did

[rain rampart]

My shield magically disappeared, I clipped it; I went into my inventory, went out, and my shield immediately vanished.

[marble roost]

Must have been a magic shield

🥁

[tired root]

Check the armor stand with troll armor.

[rain rampart]

I didn't even know you could place shields on them lol

[tired root]

Weapons too.

[tacit breach]

Only those you can do in Settings.

[strange tartan]

i need someone to drive the boat.... i need to find the traderand oppen up my map

[tacit breach]

There are 3 traders to find. Why can't you drive your boat?

[strange tartan]

i havent found one and b/c i sux at it

[tacit breach]

You only get better at it by doing it. They can be a major pain to find. Even for very experienced players like me.

It can take many hours to find just one of them, let alone all 3 of them.

[subtle parrot]

Try going backwards, it's like driving a forklift

[marble roost]

After I get bronze I tend to go on a trip looking for all 3 traders, serpents, leviathans, turnips on the side of a swamp that I can hop out and grab, swamps with crypts, tall mountains, and a nice meadows biome for a base (those last 3 preferably in close proximity)

So many goodies you can go for all at once while sailing to absolutely power boost your gear/food and set up short transportation time for metals of the next two biomes

[solemn osprey]

Do you understand the sail and wind mechanics?

[cursive dragon]

If it's white, full tilt's alright! If it's dark Grey, then slow's the way.

[rancid spoke]

Does anyone got a base that uses the grausten roof? It’s kinda confusing to me and id like a reference I can’t make a roof without it looking stinky

[marble roost]

@zenith thorn Bonemass used to give -75% damage, now it's -25%

A lot more balanced

[zenith thorn]

does it work in complicated ways with armor still, or is it a flat -25%? and then is it before or after armor

[stoic trench]

Thought it was 50% before the change 🤔

[zenith thorn]

i think it was 50-75% depending on armor, before.

[stoic trench]

But yeah, waaay more balanced now

[zenith thorn]

it was OP, no doubt about that.

[marble roost]

Not sure

[tacit breach]

Probably best to ask in #building-tips or #building-discussion

[compact heath]

So balanced I'm using other powers now even when I have BM available, like Elder / Yagluth, Moder etc. (Eikthyr was always good)

[marble roost]

I never used Bonemass, it felt boring and OP

But I am considering using it on my very hard run just so I can go a little riskier against starred enemies without risk of oneshot

[cloud otter]

I looked at pre buff elder and man it looks so bad

[compact heath]

It was good for woodcutting, but heaven forbid if you forgot to change it back you would feel bad for a time haha.

[strange tartan]

nu

[tired root]

75% resistance (very resistant) is granted only by corpse run buff. Bonemass used to grant 50% resistance, now it's 25%.
-# Seems like corpse run nowadays grant only 50% resistance.

Root Harnesk still grants 50% resistance against pierce.

[marble pagoda]

corpse run buff is the same reduction as root harnesk (50%)
its also 75% less stamina use
but there's nothing in the game that gives players 75% physical resistance

however because this applies to incoming dmg before the armor calculation, when wearing armor the actual hp loss is very different from what the buff suggests

for example old bonemass/corpse run/root harnesk would make you take like 1/6 as much dmg as without
current bonemass makes you take in the range of 1/2 depending on the hit
the bear/vile weakness makes you take like easily 60% more dmg sometimes

[tired root]

Hmm, seems like the buff was changed recently. It used to be very resistant (75%).

The weakness of bear/vile set is more recognizable in later biomes, yeah.

[true steeple]

It was only 50%, applied before armor

@marble roost

[vague cipher]

[tired root]

Add bear in the scene too.

[tidal geyser]

anyone know if dundr's exp gain is per shot or per projectile?

[tired root]

IIRC from each scatter that hit any living target.

[tidal geyser]

awesome, thanks

[solemn osprey]

The sail has 5 "gears" essentially, controlled with the up and down arrows, changing whether your character is rowing and how furled the sail is. You can see what gear you're in by the little arrows around your pointer icon. There's reverse row, neutral, forward row, half mast, and full mast. Reverse and forward row just has your character slowly row forwards and backwards, and is unaffected by wind direction. Half and full mast are faster forwards, but only if you have the wind behind you.

To see wind direction, theres a little overhead view of your boat diagram to the right, with where the wind is coming in relative to your boat shown. If its coming in from the front arc, the wind icon goes dark, indicating the wind is blowing against the direction youre heading in. Unfurled sails stop working then, and actually slow you down; change direction so the wind is coming in from the side or behind, or else furl sails and row.

[lost sandal]

That's either the wrong game, or extremely modded. The latter belonging in #mods-issues , the former not here at all lol

[fair pike]

but I don't use any mods

I had this for some time but it would load games eventually, now I just keep waiting and no active sessions comes up

[lost sandal]

That's 100% not Valheim

[fair pike]

oh sorry I clicked wrong server

[lost sandal]

Lol all good. Happens to the best of us

[grizzled leaf]

Is there a way to remove POI objects like this? Don't mind if it's a devcommand or something

[marble roost]

There’s definitely devcommands for it

Other than that though it may sink into the ground if you dig under it and then you can cover it up, but probably isn’t the best way and not sure if that particular structure even sinks

Think the command is “forcedelete” but you gotta be careful with using it

[tired root]

You can mine those with pickaxe.

[grizzled leaf]

Oh.

Ya know, I never actually considered just whacking it.

I just kinda assumed it was like, a world structure like the boss areas lmao

[tired root]

The bigger stones in circle POI cannot be mined.

[marble roost]

Lmao I didn’t know they could be mined either

[slow harbor]

Trolls with trees and lox are expert land clearers but they might get uh, a bit carried away

[frosty frost]

Nor removed with commands 😄

[marble pagoda]

wat really
can you not just forcedelete locationproxy or something

[frosty frost]

Not these ones, no 🙂 same goes for runestones

[tired root]

And boss altars IIRC.

[tacit breach]

Yeah, not boss altars either.

[frosty frost]

Didnt try those ones myself, but it would make sense, since they are even more important than the circle stones and runestones 😄

[tacit breach]

Even Yag and Fader can't destroy their own altars. Everything around them, sure.

[frosty frost]

And they also cant use commands

[tacit breach]

I've never played a game before where I even knew how to access dev commands.

Even so, I have only used them 3 times for this game.

[frosty frost]

Yeah, not using them is imo much better for majority of people

[tacit breach]

I only used them to get my character unstuck from swamp crypts. We can somehow go past those roots, but can't then back out. Now I just don't even go near them.

[frosty frost]

Those in the water filled parts?

[tacit breach]

Yep. Dry areas seem safe.

[frosty frost]

Those i just ignore since they mean the path doesn't go that way any more 😄 so never got stuck in them

[tacit breach]

Been a few years since I last got stuck too. Like I said, I stay out of them now.

[stoic trench]

Yag just uses commands to delete you 😂

[tacit breach]

Think that is truer for Fader, with that ground attack of his. Like I've said before, he would be a push over without it.

[marble pagoda]

damn lol
i just use infinity hammer, mildly surprised there's no vanilla way to edit

[tacit breach]

There are vanilla games where you can edit?

[weary robin]

was the tree seed drop rate changed? i just got 7 acorns from 1 oak tree but the wiki says it drops 2 or 3 at most

[tacit breach]

I think so. I got 9 acorns a few weeks ago.

From one tree. I get a lot more with zero, too.

[weary robin]

yep i made a little oak farm and from 15 trees only like 3 dropped seed, but i got 15 seeds back

I wonder if birch seed drop rate got improved, since afaik before only the oak tree had positive seed return per tree so i could only make a self reliable oak farm for finewood

[tacit breach]

Again, I think so. I store up hundreds of beech seeds. I got over 100 birch seeds my last play through as well. Nearly 200. So they finally gave us better than replacement values, when we used to have less than replacement years ago.

I just never got around to planting them. At least we can feed beech seeds to the chickens.

[floral river]

tips for finding more starred boar?

been scouring meadows for ingame days and haven't even found one

[tired root]

800m away from center, run around the meadows and try search for boar runestones, as they spawn some boars guaranteed that can have stars even inside the 800m radius.

[floral river]

boar runestones?

[marble roost]

Scour the meadows more.

If you want 2 star boars though you gotta go relatively far away from spawn. 2 star boars don't spawn near the center of the world

If you're really desperate for starred boar, up your difficulty to very hard. Starred enemies / neutral creatures are more likely to spawn on higher difficulty

[tired root]

Those stones with red writing. Boar runestones tell about them.

[marble roost]

wait

[floral river]

ahhh ok! thanks folks ,shall venture out further waya and search.

[marble roost]

Does very hard allow spawning of 1 star boars near world center? Feel like I've seen a few 1 stars not near a boar stone. I'd think it could since its just an increase to star chance

[tacit breach]

You can find starred boars in close villages too.

[marble roost]

That could be it tbh

[tired root]

I don't think difficulty changes spawning rules other than higher chance to spawn with stars.

[marble roost]

Current run I had killed 3 1-star boars before night 2

[tired root]

I always forget the villages.

[tacit breach]

They are rarer than the stones, since villages at most get two boars.

[tired root]

More precisely, one time spawners that are around the boar runestones and possibly near ruined villages.

[tacit breach]

Runestones have had as many as 8 boars. Usually 4.

[floral river]

I found a 1star near a stone talking about boar! appreciate ya

[slow harbor]

heck yea congrats!

[tacit breach]

2 stars are possible, but they are much rarer.

When I find them, I'll take them home, even if I'm not going to breed any.

Talking any I find within 800m.

[strange tartan]

Thanks... i have watched many videos and im still a massive failure.

[floral river]

asside from a set of armor, any use for troll leather?

[tacit breach]

Nope.

They are what I most often put on armor stands, once we get them.

[olive fog]

So, where do i find copper. also, can i ask build questions here?

[tacit breach]

In the black forest. Tin is along the water in the black forest too. As for building: #building-discussion

[olive fog]

also one more question, what do after killing eikthyr

Other than getting better equipment

[tacit breach]

Go into the black forests. Get copper, tin, flowers, berries, and kill tons of grey dwarves, bears and trolls, find the boss locations, pick one, and go beat it.

[olive fog]

Got ya. thanks

[tacit breach]

Then move into swamps, repeat.

[tacit breach]

Oh, and clear tombs. Absolutely clear tombs.

[olive fog]

ah. oh. uhh. i will check the wiki. thanks again

We have other blue rugs 😄

[stark lance]

I can’t find a single turnip can you only find them in the swamp?

[tired root]

The turnip seeds, yes. Resembling as yellow seed flower similar as carrot seed flower.

[spare vault]

Look for the yellow flowers, usually near the edges of the swamps. They do indeed be rare!

[stark lance]

So I just need to keep looking then and thank you I will look along the edges

[tired root]

They can be anywhere around swamps but since the gloomy environment and terrain partially under water they're bit rarer and harder to spot than carrot seeds.

[stark lance]

I see I appreciate it

[glad current]

trollskin rugs like the bear rugs, head included! Talk about a trip hazard

[remote tangle]

is there any way at all to remove the ashlands heat waves?

[tired root]

I think not on settings at least, if it's related to photo sensitivity issue.
But there is env command to change the current environmental weather, putting env clear clears the environment from the weather but also from all the unique effects of the biome like red sky and heatwaves in Ashlands.

[urban valve]

is there a bug causing Faders spawn altar not spawning? Went to the marker to find anything but a colosseum

[thorn spire]

are you using an old world created before latest update?

[urban valve]

propably

[thorn spire]

Updates with new POIs will usually move the existing POIs around somewhat. Go find your vegevisir for Fader and click on it again. It'll show the updated location of his altar.

You might also want to delete the existing icon from your map.

[tired root]

More precisely, POIs in unexplored areas tend to switch locations. @urban valve

[urban valve]

found the arena, now prep awaits

[uneven wyvern]

Is the pole arm good for seeker

[true steeple]

Yes. Even with the damage resistance the high stagger and knockback on the secondary will be useful. In mistlands you can craft a lightning polearm which seekers won’t resist as much.

[uneven wyvern]

Im trying to get all the craftin station for it

[tacit breach]

Aren't they resistant to all weapon types?

[uneven wyvern]

Rn im struggling with the seeker in the mine

[true steeple]

Slash, blunt and pierce

[worn barn]

Uhg. I didn't need that reminder lol - I've got a 1* Soldier blocking my way deeper in to the mine; I set that world aside for a minute and forgot until now 🙁

[tacit breach]

Two things to make mines easier, when they are behind stone doors, kill them with the sledge before opening it. When behind those vines, use poison bombs. 2 to 3 will kill everything not starred. Without breaking those vines.

[uneven wyvern]

Also can i put multiple sap extractor on the same ancient root?

[true steeple]

Yes, but when the root is empty you only need to leave one

[uneven wyvern]

It can ran out?

[worn barn]

Yes but recharges over time

[uneven wyvern]

Does ice dmg work on it?

[true steeple]

Frost, lightning and fire damage work well, frostner is good for seekers

[tacit breach]

Then Mistwalker, once you can craft it. Assuming you like swords.

Porcupine works well too.

[uneven wyvern]

tbh i like every weapon so far after getting out of swamp

[tacit breach]

Only weapon I have trouble with, and its only because it seems just so odd to me, is the atgeir.

[true steeple]

What’s odd about it?

[uneven wyvern]

atgeir helped me alot in plain

[tacit breach]

I use all the others for one reason or another.

[uneven wyvern]

yea im struggling so much in the mistland mine

is this normal?

[tacit breach]

Well, do the two things I mentioned above, and they become much less dangerous.

[true steeple]

They can be very dangerous with starred enemies in tiny corridors

[tacit breach]

I use Tower Shields, so even 2 star soldiers don't bother me much. The BM Tower Shield is a beast.

[uneven wyvern]

3 of these 1* in the single room

[true steeple]

Using the secondary attack on that polearm should stagger them, and if it doesn’t it will knock them far

[uneven wyvern]

yea but some of them just wont hit in range

i will update again

[tacit breach]

Single starred seekers take around 5 poison bombs to kill. So if you can kill them before you break vines, open doors, etc... they are already dead.

Just be patient and let the bombs do the work.

[true steeple]

Polearm secondary can hit through walls too for an extra hit if they’re behind a barrier like this

[uneven wyvern]

is it okay to jump down?

[tacit breach]

Yeah, the stone doors. I use the sledge hammer myself. Since I don't like the Atgeir.

[true steeple]

I don’t think there’s anything down there

[steep tusk]

Well this is all very #mods-discussion ...

[true steeple]

We aren’t discussing the mods

[tacit breach]

Yeah, what mods?

[true steeple]

The slots in the lower corner

[steep tusk]

What mods?
Backpack, inventory, map icons, etc.

[uneven wyvern]

you talking about mod yes this is modded valheim but all im asking is general survival in mistland

[tacit breach]

Oh, I didn't even look at their gear, etc...

[steep tusk]

Survival Tip A: Don't mod 😏

[glad current]

Survival Tip B: let folks enjoy their game

[steep tusk]

Survival Tip C: Yes, in the proper channels 💛

[glad current]

The conversation has nothing to do with modded content

[tacit breach]

Yeah, we never even talked about mods. Just what you can do in even Vanilla.

Did you know there is actually a rule against "back seat moderating"? See rule 13. Just saying.

[glad current]

Back on topic: you could, but there’s a slope leading down

[steep tusk]

I have poked at modded content in non-mod channels since the beginning and I will continue to do so 🤷‍♂️

[uneven wyvern]

i saw some water and i just move on with my life and goes back to base

is the magic worth getting into?

[tacit breach]

There is usually seekers down at the bottom of those pits.

[glad current]

Depends on your play style

[tacit breach]

Lots of people have fun with it. I just don't like it enough to walk away from all my melee skills.

Let alone having to invest all that time in improving a new set of skills.

[uneven wyvern]

there are so much new weapons and armor in mistland that idk where to even start

[glad current]

What weapon(s) have you used so far?

[uneven wyvern]

start from plain

[tacit breach]

I think only the heavy armor is in Mistlands. So thats easy, if you prefer heavy in the first place.

Make the new versions of whatever weapon types you already like to use.

[uneven wyvern]

is jotun bane type of like axe?

[tacit breach]

So for me its the sword, bow, sledge hammer and axe. Yes, Jotun is the new axe.

[uneven wyvern]

also does staff of protection work with melee build?

[brittle jay]

guys why is my game locked to version 0.220.5

[tacit breach]

You have to eat magic foods to use magic, so you give up an HP or stamina food.

[true steeple]

If you have that staff you don’t need health food

[brittle jay]

latest patch is 0.221.4 so idk why it isn't updating

[tacit breach]

You on Steam? If so verify yor files. It should update.

[brittle jay]

yes i'm on steam. but i did verify and it still didn't update

[tacit breach]

Or are you still on play test?

[brittle jay]

spoilers lol

[tacit breach]

I LOVE Demolisher.

[true steeple]

Mistwalker is good for every enemy in mistlands and ashlands except gjalls so if you don’t want to spend too many resources make that

[tacit breach]

I always end up with a ton of resources, so make a variety of stuff just to use them up.

[brittle jay]

how do i check?

[true steeple]

Look in the game’s beta settings on steam

[brittle jay]

i never went on play test so i should be right?

[uneven wyvern]

got it will do it rn also does crossbow work fine with that gjalls enemy

[tacit breach]

You should be fine, yes.
