When you upgrade the ||trollstav,|| does it also improve the stats of the ||burning troll||?
No, only the meteor
Ok, thank you ๐
Ah, the meteor... ๐ I have a memory of killing myself with it by accident... ๐๐ ๐
Sorry, but did you just do what any curious person does and you are like "oh what does this thing do" and bam meteor in the face๐
I wish... I already knew what it does, and I died anyway. ๐๐
basically I kinda miscalculated the distance between me and the meteor impact.
And I was also running from ashlands enemies, so in the chaos I ran into my own meteor. Basically that... Was stupid ๐๐
I successfully dodged the enemies, but did not dodge my own meteor ๐
I gotta say, the summoning animation and sound of the troll/meteor is so cool tho... (eventho it kills me if I'm not careful)
I feel like I'm summoning a titan. It's satisfying haha
My tactic: shout โtroll inbound!โ at my teammate, run forward, cast, runrunrunrun!
Time to test the troll staff on my 3rd charred fortress
I only tried that staff in my solo playthrough yet. I wonder how it will be when I have that staff in the duo playthrough. ๐
Itโs gonna be extra-crispy by the time youโre done!
Also the jormunding accessory is awesome
I made two staves and gave one to another player. โUnder NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you to cast this near base!โ
I want that one. But don't have the trophy yet ๐ฉ
Soon!
Whenever I'm in my base, I always equip the staff of protection or the dead raiser. Just in case I misclick and cast something. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐ I wouldn't want to cast fireballs in my own base. or trolls... ๐
When Iโm in my base I usually have the build hammer or cultivator equipped.
You should ask @stoic trench for one, he mentioned recently having 10ish of them trophies.

I have four vile trophies ๐
i still don't have it either.
I have completed my third stack of celestial feathers though ๐
I have also been quite lucky with their trophies usually. 
More lucky than with regular bear trophy in first playthrough during Call to Arms PTB. 
-# 36th bear dropped first trophy. 
Hello everyone, maybe someone knows what's going on. I play Valheim with the Quick Stack Store Sort Trash Restock mod, and when I start the server, the buttons disappear and only one button remains, the S button, and others like Q and R disappear.
try asking in #mods-issues
Hello I am trying to fight the bonemass boss for the first time. Is it possible to lure it out of the swamp or will it despawn if it is lured away too far from the spawn point? Also if I run away due to too many enemies, will the boss still be there or will it despawn after some time?
Bosses never despawn, they just regen health.
Also unless you have a very lucky map, you have to fight him in swamp.
At minimum it's extremely unviable, why are you luring it?
ok thank you!
If you really don't want to deal with enemies, you can spawnproof the area before spawning him. Stops other mobs from interfering
I second spawnproofing
Also also, he is a zero-damage fight.
3 very slow animations.
Raised hand = swipe, dodge roll into him.
Hand in armpit = adds spawn, run in the direction he is facing and one-shot them when they land.
Both hands on belly = poison vomit, just walk backwards until you're out of radius and wait for him to walk to you.
Well I am still at the stage where the tree monster 2-3 shots me... so I dont want it spawning when I am fighting the boss
It wont
How do I do this???
It's got a tiny aggro range
Spam campfires every 10 metres
Quite a few things block spawns. Workbench blocks everything in that white radius around it.
Campfire is easier blocking in the same area, just doesn't show the outline
For fire damage?
No.
No, because they disable spawning in a 10 metre circle
ohh ok! wish I knew this for elder ๐
Ads should really not be an issue for bosses
20m radius ๐
does this also apply for the ghost monster that spawns at night?
what is ads?
Ads means trash enemies that spawn during a boss
It applies to any monster spawns with exception of the destroyable spawner such as greydwarf nests, draugr piles etc ๐
Wait, you mean Odin?
Normally spelled with 2 d's because it is enemies the boss adds to the encounter ๐
yooo nice!! I know this is stupid but can I spawn proof the whole swamp if I spam campfires everwhere?
Technically, yes, but wraits for example could still spawn since the spawn-proof area is a sphere and not column going infinetly up ๐
No the ghost like monster that like spawns in abandoned or broken swamp houses
If you think the swamp is that rough.. you're in for some difficult times ahead.
Because the game does not get easier.
The swamps is a skill test
ohhh ok
Learn to parry, and swamps are easy
oh... ๐ฅฒ
Ah, wraith, those in huts are just one time spawns, so no need to prevent spawns there ๐
Git gud is lame advice I know, but genuinely, parrying makes every enemy but slimes a free kill, amd you carry it all run
And for slimes, poison mead makes them basically passive mobs
What shield do I need so I can parry the tree monster? (I am sorry but I am really bad at remembering monster names...)
Bronze Buckler?
Iron Buckler?
Also... and I cannot stress this enough...
FOOD is the most important stat in the entire game. Without contest.
The smallest highest tier shield you can find
is this different from bronze shield? I have a lvl 3 shield but I cant even block its attack let alone parry it...
Bucklers are smaller, less armor, better parry
Not blocking has nothing to do with not parrying, because the parry is always stronger.
ohh nice!
If only someone had made a blocking sheet that explains it all... ๐ญ
bruh this game is a lot more complex after the elder...
How?
or i should say a lot more content that complexity
Meadows: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Black Forest: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Swamp: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Mountain: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Plains: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Mistlands: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
Ashlands: Acquire new materials, build new gear, gather boss summon items, kill boss.
And I will let you guess what Deep North is going to involve... ๐
What weapon are you using?
I am about to make the iron mace
If you're not above sequence breaking, you can skip to the frostner
Frostner sucks.
Glitch your camera into the ground to see silver nodes while drinking frost resist meads
Mine with iron pick
can it be mined with bronze lvl3?
No
sadge...
@frail orbit what is your FOOD?
Just an fyi, you WILL need a full shipload of iron scrap
Prepare yourself to grind that out
just one?
Slightly corrected FYI -- You will never stop needing iron.
bear meat, queen jam and deer stew
For a single player, to start, yes
Start eating sausages and serpent stew
You need to find Turnips.
With your new iron upgrades
where do I find these? The recipies for sausages ad serpent stew and turnip seeds?
Also are barnicles good for anything?
Worry just about Turnips right now.
Carrot seeds were white flowers in the BF.
Turnip seeds are the same exact flower model, but they are yellow.
oh i didnt see anything like that in the black forest
Swamp upgrade food would not be located in the BF now would it?
ohh mb i forgot u were talking about swamp food ๐
Food sheet and blocking sheet are both pinned in #valheim-chat
Thank you!
Interpretive dance?
If we have an expansive dance category people will probably flame the animation team for doing that instead of making weapon animations more unique ๐
Sail at night, get good with a bow, and prepare to shoot backwards, serpents are easy to kill with a fine wood bow, just be slow and they die so you can grab the meat from the warer
Decent shield maybe. Check the wiki
They make a harpoon and a knife, no shield
oh ok!
are those items any good?
compared to iron stuff i mean
Commit to a weapon type bro
the knife has swamp-tier damage and the harpoon is a unique tool for pulling creatures
Slow? You mean stopped?
Why would you have your boat in motion while also trying to shoot something in motion?
Because he's new and I don't want him to break his boat
Also, have you EVER fought a serpent
Which time in my thousand hours?
It chases you, you shoot straight backwards, it's not rocket surgery
You're not doing strafing runs
See serpent, aggro serpent, jump out of boat for instant stop, get back in boat, kill serpent.
Also "he's new" -- yeah, so I wouldn't even recommend serpent hunting.
Collecting the meat is harder than the kill
It floats... it's not hard.
yeah I should but i want to explore (and maybe die few times XD) all the weapons I can get so I can find what is easy for me to use
It's really, really easy to shoot backwards
It's really, really easy to collect floating meat from a stopped boat.
You've seen the amount of people complaining about failing to get the meat, right
Try out all weapons to find the one you like. Just don't try to carry all weapons.
I agree it's easy, but new players are silly
yes yes I learnt this the hadr way haha
The scales, sure, the trophy, that too, but meat is really not hard to get as you can just go back to it, it floats
To be fair
It would probably help new players a lot
If the boats had a far more visual representation of damage
A giant sea monster landing 2 hits on your ship sends the brain into panic mode, making it harder to kite to shallows or not want to turn your boat off full speed
I would counter that it would help new players a lot if people didn't tell them to hunt serpents if they don't even have turnips yet ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I've never not had serpents, I've had to search for turnips quite a few times
So what?
Turnips still have the highest value in terms of food finding in the swamp.
Imagine if people gave good advice ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It does. It's a weapon that makes it more difficult for you to kill things because it punts them away from you instead of allowing the follow-up swing that would delete your enemy.
Your weapon should not work against you.
The fix is they make knockback a flat value on the weapon instead of having it scale with skill value.
But unless they change that, I will never recommend Frostner to anyone.
Rekt by image perms ๐
I prefer the knockback tbh, plenty of safer options, and you can always position a target against something solid for easier follow ups.
In the mountains packs of wolves are handily hit back and slowed for a more reliable combat pace in crowds.
Is it a good idea to cook my black metal in a plains base or is it better to just take it back to my main compound, which is pretty far away
Assuming you dont have portal-able metals on. I'd say get it out of Plains in a nerby easier biome and make a base and smelt it there
really? why
id say wait for a fuling raid in your main base, they deliver it to you
@rain sundial
That so? Well i hope my stone walls are enough to hold them back, thanks!
my bad
the knockback is that bad?
Yes.
Frostner is a good decorative piece
My wife loves using it, especially in Ashlands, it gives her great control of her battles. Knocking them off of the big rocks, etc... giving her plenty of time to kill everything. Not my style, I use weapons like Mistwalker, but she loves it.
Is it not possible to aim upward or downward with a melee weapon? Only bows?
Correct. Although hitboxes were adjusted during last September update so hitting enemies on slopes is now easier.
I wasn't playing until a bout a week or two ago now - it just seems really frustrating to have them jump on a rock and become untouchable.
Good thing is that it also works in your favor.
can i not post images?
We have a few channels you can post images in. #screenshots #building-screenshots or #memes-and-clips for example.
ty, ill just imgur it here instead as the channel makes more sense
what on earth is going on here? ive got some hundreds of hours on valheim but this shouldnt really be the case with terraforming?
is it related to the spawner?
ive never encountered terraforming not adhering to a square shape
never mind it makes sense now.
one time i had a really weird problem and eventually it turned out something had fried on the motherboard and it was writing bad data occasionally
I play a lot of other games and this is the only game I have ever had crash on me. I know my pc isn't bad, but this game seems to be effected by something.
What else could explain this besides tweaked hardware
Your specs are pretty common i would say, not rare anyway
Software that updated itself maybe?
why cant i find the smelter in my workbench its lvl 3 and i have everything to craft it but i cant find it in my workbench
You make it with a hammer, it needs a workbench nearby to be built
build pieces never need upgraded crafting stations
Thank you
AfterI die, how long do I have to fetch my corpse?
The tombstone will never despawn and there is no limit to how many of them there can be
So take your time and plan out your recovery mission 
Ah, good to know. Thanks!
I just started playing, what do yall recommend. I want to play 0 to the end on 1 save and another one to practice and basically boosted. Is that a solid?
Im a returning player and i started a new server with an existing character. I have full padded armour, black tower shield and iron axe. Can I easily do the swamp?
I also have a swamp key
Padded armor and blackmetal tower shield are 5th biome tier (plains) equipment while iron axe is 3rd biome tier (swamps). So you will have no problems in swamps with those.
You'll have no issues
Thank you both, I have a black metal sword but I cant repair it. Happy to wait though!
What exactly do you mean by 0 to the end? And what do you mean by practice and basically boosted?
I would recommend new character tho, there are some new features in early game, plus 2 new biomes after plains. 
Sorry my english isn't great but what I mean is I play 1 server of my own to play fully legit, so no boosting/cheating whatsoever. And 1 server to practise and play with borrowed overpowered items
I see, I play solo with no cheats, so that's what i would recommend, but playing with friends is fun too. But i would definitely recommend playing normally first before doing any cheating.
So having no cheat character and world, plus cheat character and world which you keep separated?
The thing now is, I play but I do not really understand the game yet allthough I try a lot
Exactly
Is it due to English? You can switch language to your native (if the game has it). Maybe that helps understand better.
Not really, I can read and understand english just fine my grammar is a bit off sometimes
Fair. So you speak about mechanics etc.
Yes and where to find certain things etc
Feel free to ask any questions about tips or tricks and people here can help you out if you need it.
Appreciate it, I feel like i'm too stubborn sometimes cause I wanna do it myself hahah
As for practice their are practice dummys called TWIG you can build in game and practice blocking and attacking
The bird guide (Hugin) explains things quite well, so listening to it is good way to learn.
But also nothing wrong asking here, but keep in mind that you might get spoiled about things then.
Also Hugin's previous advices are readable in compendium when you press tab (above the crafting menu).
what could have caused terrain to...
kinda roll back to what it was, maybe, before I sculted it?
yesterday I saw some grass levitating
and now I get mountain to be inside my house
Are anti-cheat mods on dedicated servers effective at blocking training software like wand.com that allows players to do things like for example enable god mode, unlimited stamina and impossible movement speed?
I would ask from people in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 ๐
No, but the "Inviting Only People You Trust" setting is vanilla and stops all of that.
ok, this is weird: #screenshots message
what to do with caves that cannot be explored?..
- There should be other way around if that spot is not possible to climb from.
- Wet bats would hint water inside the cave.
they fly into water?..
Sometimes they might end up there or their spawn points can be there. Can't think of another reasons. 
I'm I allowed to post my Valheim YouTube stream in the #self-promotion channel
I got timed-out when I posted the link to the stream while was live.
How do I get my characters equipment slows to show when I open my inventory? I see some people on twitch have that? (Slots not slows)
(slots not slows)
Your inventory slots are your equipment slots, you're likely seeing someone that is using mods.
Yeah I just worked out it's a mod, likely AzuExtendedPlayerInventory thanks.
Hello. Is there no brightness settings? I cant see anything in the swamp..
Also is there any way to know if it is day or night in the swamp? I keep getting ambushed by the wraiths..
If you feel cold, it's night, it's also much darker at night than day even in the swamp. I'm not aware of any brightness settings, but i haven't had any issues with seeing in the swamps.
ah the cold effect thanks!
if you look at your map during day the foggy unexplored areas are light gray but at night it looks a bit darker
if your monitor cant go quite bright enough, your graphics card control panel should be able to boost gamma a bit, for me its never impossible to see just hard to distinguish details
idk if this is a dumb ask but could anyone drop me a frostner or the fenris armor iโm still in late bronze age and am about to search for swamp to beat bonemass but donโt want to grind all that out personally
you dont want to play the game?
i want to i just personally donโt have all the time in the world to grind everything out
fenris and frostener are 2 biomes past copper
you can load up a cheat enabled world and spawn them easily enough
and you right fr was just feeling lazy
on console tho so i cant
oh i didnt know that
is console like that because of the platform, or because of no keyboard
you good i feel with valheim itโs assumed to be played on pc itโs like terraria
i think platform there are no console commands
as far as i am aware
You can use console commands on console.
and how do um, how we do that ๐
While in game hold: LB + RB + MENU.
It must be your own world
finna try that fr
i appreciate you ๐ฎโ๐จ
im having issues with it idk how to activate it iv tried looking it up @drowsy crane
nvm
You got it opened?
First Its needed to enable Console in settings ๐
do i get all resources back when disassembling buildings? including smelter and kiln.
Yes.
then what happens to upgraded workbenches etc if i want to move my whole base?
You disassemble the upgrades first, then the benches, then move everything?
How long does it usually take to flat an area? I feel like it takes too long for me even in the plains cause I usually find one spot thats somewhat even but the rest needs either a lot of filling or trimming and I mess it up at times.
Sorry Moderators I know we are supposed to Use @lofty orchid but my issue is that IT is Broken so i cant use it =} Been sending tickets for 2 days with no answers . . . think Modmail may be messing up! I would appreciate it if you would check thank you!
How big of an area are you trying to flatten?
Hmm... around the size of a planes underground ruin thing with the stone and the surrounding hill side
Hey guys im streaming valheim on youtube, where can i send the link for people interested in the gameplay? no mic tho

For everyone using a Mac and trying to use Mods:

This has just been updated as of the start of the month and thanks to this wonderful poster, I can use mods again on an M4 with Tahoe.
Hello everyone I have a problem with the gamepad in the game. Steam and other games see the gamepad (hollow knight), but as soon as I launch Valheim it doesn't work. I have a wired xbox 360 gamepad. I play on a macbook air m2.
--> #mac-bugs-discussion ๐
๐ ๐
has there been any largescale updates to performance such as terrain modifying?
or should we still avoid largescale hoeing and digging in our bases?
Iirc that has been improved/fixed long ago.
Also, latest update in 2nd of Feb improved performance in areas with higher instances.
weird, i still have friends complaining some of their largescale builds are barely playable
i havent personally experienced any bad dips yet but all ive done is some pathing and building, no major terrain changes
Not 100% sure but it could be that the oldest saves with big terrain modifications before the fix didn't get as much improved. 
I usually have around 10-15k instances in my end game base and I also have quite lot terrain modifications done, I have noticed better performance after the latest update.
whats your fps in the base?
Don't remember exact numbers but about 35-40 pre update and over 50 after.
Can I safely use mods to change the music without any issues with private server etc and play with being who are not using said mod?
--> #mods-discussion or #mods-issues
terrain modification was fixed years ago.
but.
don't use the developer command to mega-flatten terrain since that one actually adds instances..
but using the hoe doesn't matter anymore.
And it's all about your PC's hardware versus ingame instances (trees, bushes, build pieces, monsters etc)
how long does a mead take to fertilize?
my apologies
2 in game days i think
np ๐
just pointing you in the direction where people can help you
feels like the berserkir is really expensive
80 coins for 3 potions that last 20 seconds each
They pretty good tho.
Hello what comes after bonemass/swamp? Mountains or plains? Or something else?
Mountains is next, make frost resistance mead
Thank you!
It might depend on controller settings, but it's LT + LB + menu for me
Mountains, find some silver, and onions, tame some wolves,
Really? I find mountains easier than swamp so I figuired mountains was biome 3
scratch that, it IS easier than swamp
Are there any bosses in the mountains?
Every biome except ocean and deep north has a boss
oh ok thanks.
How do I copy paste builds from internet and put them in my game? I've seen a tutorial but I dont see those steps in my files.
I think you need a mod, so prolly ask in #mods-discussion
๐ค
so apparently bonemass buff overrides their debuff
does it override the debuff from the vile armour too
resistance overrides weakness so yes
You can stack bonemass, berserker mead and vile gear to be a dps machine
Best utilised with high dps stamina hungry weapons
is the damage buff multiplicative or additive
and I'm guessing the animal whisper mead is multiplicative with multiple people
so it's 75% faster if 2 people use it?
400% speed
which damage buff?
The one in vile armor set I believe.
From my understanding (I'm sure Blob can correct if wrong) damage buffs like vile gear, trinkets, yagluth power, etc. will multiply together for an even higher benefit.
Weaknesses and resistances work very differently as mentioned above though, it just picks the best one and ignores the rest. So if you have vile set (+25% physical damage taken) and bonemass (-25% physical damage taken), you will completely ignore vile set weakness and still get benefit of bonemass, AKA you take 75% of the damage you usually would
all damage buffs are multiplicative, +10% and +20% will be +32% total
Ah yeah, 1,1 x 1,2.
i tried to repoen my old moded server today, hosted localy on my pc, i updated the mods via r2modman, but the server boots up diffrently and doesnt follow my old configs. anyone else had that issue or know how 2 fix it?
https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 or https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599 might have help for your question.
ty
My graves are all missing after a raid?
If you have nothing in your inventory, a grave marker wonโt be generated
Does somebody know where to find your player id on Xbox?
If you're in game you can log in to a world and then click LT + LB + option (or whatever the left center button is called idr atm lol)
Anyways it should be listed there
Does anyone know if there is a way to improve FPS at all, any obvious thing that I am not aware of?
I am on a server and hosting it, with multiple friends, we have a wide range of computer strengths, but from worst to best, the FPS gets awful when the base is sufficiently big enough.
I have done a lot of research, and it appears this is not a computer issue, but a Valheim problem itself. Further testing seems to confirm this entirely.
Is there any, relatively well known fixes to the FPS drops caused by a large base?
We are up to 10K instances in our base, for context, and it is a little disheartening that we are forced to essentially have a small base due to a technical issue that seems entirely localized to Valheim's system.
Much appreciated, to any and all suggestions and answers!
Howdy new to valheim !
I beat the first boss and am still struggling to kill deer lol
Deer are easiest with a bow or spear.
Been trying to get better lol
It does take practice.
Plus when you finally get a better bow it'll shoot better
Which is why I prefer spears at first. They throw well enough from the start. I do switch to the bow once I get to where I can cut down the right trees.
Can any one hop on my server if I put a password ?
Only if they know the password
You can make different bows with different trees ?
Why?
Yes!
Early on. Then bows require other things as you progress, but certain woods are also needed.
Essentially want to get a little chunk of everything to see all the wonderful things you can make
Yea i only have crude bow unlocked
Yep. Pick up everything, make everything at least once, etc... Best way to ensure you see all the recipes.
Okay
The next bow requires two types of wood that are not what your getting now.
Okay so you unlock recipes by discovering things ?
One comes from the trees in the meadows that you likely cannot cut down yet, the other comes from the black forest. There are also things you can find that will give them to you if you break them down.
And building workbench upgrades
Okay !
BTW, if you hear the buzzing of insects, find the source and destroy it.
They are usually in or on structures.
This game is a little overwhelming
I beat the first boss and now im trying to get better stuff. I went looking for the different trees and just got standard wood. Im using the early axes.
Don't cut beech trees, cut birch trees or oak trees in meadows and then go to black forest and cut pine trees (the really tall ones) not fir trees
Okay
Got fine wood form a oak
Hell yea I did it !!
Are there swords in this game jw ?
Soon.
You'll unlock the first one when you get some first metals.
Yep. You will start that whole process in the Black Forest. Its when people really start to complain about the "grind".
How to make my character move faster ?
Keep running
Okie dokie
Run skill levels up over time, which makes you slightly faster and uses less stamina also while running/sprinting (holding Shift button), in the future biomes you can get different means to increase your movement speed.
Okay cool !
I wouldn't care if I didn't have items on me ^^ But I had all my stuff none of these markers have it.
If I run over a swimming dvergr with a karve will that aggro him?
I would guess thats a yes. Never done it myself, so not sure. ๐
I don't think so. Like if you drop a tree on someone.. Just say it moved itself
Probably like hitting the ward with a cart, but I've never tried hitting a dvergr with a cart, so it may be different (yes I'm aware a boat is not a cart lol)
Next one i see i will be donating my body for science
Exclamation mark but no red bar. Hit them twice
yeah, and they can shoot you
So it takes 5 irl hours for the blueberries and raspberries to grow back in their bushes?
Several ingame days. 5 irl hours would be 10 ingame days without sleep.
Hi im new , like 30 mins in game new , what should I do from the start to Midgame
Play?
Wym?
No like what are some good tips to get on my feet
I'm still going to say "Just play the game." Don't have the experience lessened for yourself by having people tell you what is what.
You only get to have your first run one time.
Yea true true , tbh I just wna know how do I get bronze and how to make armour to fight the first boss or whtver its called, sry
You're already thinking about second-boss stuff before fighting the first one.
To myself?๐ no but I understand
The ravens tell you how the game works.
If you're ignoring them, that's kind of mistake number 1.
Oh , cause I got a lil base set up , 8 chests and a bow and club
Ok ok , will he just randomly apear
As you progress to the game, the bird will always fly to you to give you pointers
He appears when he has new information for you.
Valheim is one of the type of game that in order to progress in game, you have to explore and learn some new stuff
But you're fine where you're at. If the bird hasn't explained mining yet, then you don't need to worry about mining at all.
Go kill first boss.
And genuinely, stay out of here as much as possible until you get to like... Mistlands.
You don't want your first run ruined. ๐
Ok thanks lads , appreciate the help , gives me motivation to go beat him with a club ๐๐
Thanks ๐
Like said, he appears everytime he has something new info for you. His previous info can be read again in compendium found above the crafting menu.
Oh yea I saw that, thanks
Also, have fun. 
Is it wise to build a few beds and fireplaces in different areas to just sleep if needed?
It doesnโt hurt. Once you unlock portals though, itโs easier to just head back home
I like putting them on the edge of dark forests when trying to kill greydwarfs
Yea I use them if I die๐๐
It can be utilised in different areas, you can set spawn point on any bed and respawn there if you die.
Yea that's what I'm doing rn , I'm just leveling up my club skills and bow skills from killing mobs in the dark forest
My friend started a server for us, but we can only play when he's online. Since he can't host and then play at the same time (old PC) I'll be hosting a dedicated server so anyone can join when they want. What files do I need from him to keep hosting the server we were playing on so far?
same files as normal hosting.
the .fwl and .db file
Heya! Is there some current state of the art to defeat Bonemass? I used a blunt weapon but got swarmed by the adds. Eventually defeated him but then my game got corrupted and I need to do it again. Maybe more elegant this time
Iron mace is the best against bonemass
iron mace and root armor is my go to
Maxed out iron mace?
ye
Alright thank you both
Some frost arrows can be helpful if you want to keep up reasonable dps while making distance after a bad trade
Because fire for the adds won't do much due to the rain
Bonemass is wet because swamp and weak to frost, so the damage is nice
If you get overwhelmed, jump on top of the altar and use a sledge to thin out the herd
If he throws an armpit booger go after the adds, then go back to killing bonemass. Also a little spawn proofing around the alter can help lessen natural spawns.
Armpit boogers ๐
Am I the only one who completely ignores the skeletons and blobs? They do 0 damage with potion active and usually get hit when youre smashing him. Just dodge the smack. And then hit him. Repeat
I try to ignore them but they multiply
Once you get good at dodging his swing you can dance around and do whatever you want
I knew you had it in you
Thank you
managed to make a server but it keeps saying wrong password??
Maybe your caps lock is on? Making you input the wrong pw? I mean, you created the PW, right?
i copy pasted the password from the bat file and it's still wrong xD
Huh. I never ran into that problem.
Try space before or after, not sure if thats even possible but
Oh, yeah, I've had that issue before. Copy/paste often ads in an extra space or two.
Is it possible to wait out the raid events so the enemies just despawn?
Yes and no. They don't always despawn.
Last time i got attacked by Zil & Thungr and they just went off somwhere into the forest and disappeared and another time they stayed for a while until i defeated them so maybe it depends on the distance?
Sometimes mobs during raids start to fight other mobs near the border of active area and may get into the inactive area and stay there until player gets close enough to find out they're there still.
I have just finished a palisade cutting a island in half, but the enemys just walk around it. What is the best way (not ugly) to prevent it?
Pic might help for giving advice. You can post it in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202267437647527977 for example.
Posted one, just a palisade going into the water, same on the other side. Is the only way to prevent them going around, closing it into a large circle?
You could raise ground with hoe across the shore, make it steep enough so mobs cannot climb up from it.
Is vineberries supposed to reset growth after you sleep lol
Vineberries make no sense to me in how they respawn. Some can go a long time without respawning, others can do it in a short time. Like I have 50 some growing now, and I still don't see a pattern.
Now the ones growing in the wild do seem to have a pattern. At least they all respawn at about the same time.
Vine berries are from the Ashlands and therefore a pain in the arse no matter what you try. Unless you mod them to suit how you want the game to be.
Is there an expert who can help?
My world saves suddenly disappeared; they aren't showing up in the game files or the in-game menu. What could be the reason for this?
and its solution
Iirc one of the devs mentioned a bug with their timer resetting when you relogin, so if you're only playing for a short time before having to log out it's possible the timer is resetting
Is there a way to increase the max zoom level for the mini-map? < and > dont zoom in enough. Any mods for that?
Did something happen to the carrot seeds? I haven't played for about 6 months and now I can't find carrot seeds in any of my chests although I've been farming plenty of carrots before. Maybe I put them in a chest which I'm not seeing but I'm pretty sure that I've checked all of them more than once now. BUT I also can't find new ones. I've been running through the Black Forest for hours now. Are they more rare now? Is there a known carrot seed bug? Just for the record, I'm NOT talking about already planted carrot seeds disappearing from my fields, which seems to be a known problem which I've never had.
Oh my goodness, I forgot that seeds can be made by planting the carrots. Also, literally 8 minutes after asking, I suddenly found some seeds in the forest. SORRY.
This is the way
can i get a light to no spoiler level hint, on what to do in mistlands, in order to progress and not die
Infested Mines are basically your Sunken Crypts.
Otherwise, find the massive skulls.
hmm
Have you figured out what to do with what you got from defeating yalguth?
i turned it on when i got to a mistlands area yes
Okay good, then youโll be able to find your way around in order to discover what the ancients left behind. Iterate around some mines and youโll be flying along once you figure out the next set of crafting tables.
I don't understand
What's the inded way of getting serpent parts that sinif it spawns in the ocean
If you care only for meat - just killing them, meat floats.
If you want other drops - harpoon helps dragging them on shore where you and other enemy mobs can kill it easily.
One way is also timing your jump on water and last shot so you end up looting the drops before they sink. This takes some practice.
... and requires knowing exactly where they will spawn. the drops
Hence it takes some practice.
ahhhhhhhh im trying to make a starter house but the stability is so bad
im trying to make roof but like its just breaking
Screenshot might help for giving advice. Such as posting in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202310893757530142 for example.
But generally if you try build with just regular wood, you cannot build too high as their stability is not strong enough for tall buildings. Corewood can help with that tho.
Why does Valheim lag at night? My FPS drops from 100 to 30, and I have no idea why. It's fine during the day.
That has happened to me too. Probably bc there are more players active at night

Why can't I break the fairy lights garland?
i just did it
select the fairy lights in item crafting then select destroy on the end peice of garland
you don't need to select the piece you want to break
maybe not but that worked because with out doing that it kept trying to select the pillar the item was attacked to
why is my game not working and saying "Couldn't resolve join code" when i try adding a server
You need the join code to the server you're trying to join, if you don't know the server owner you won't be able to get access to the join code
i have the join code, i enter the join code into the add server thing and then press confirm and it says "Couldn't resolve join code"
Is it a dedicated server or a server a friend started on their device? If it's not a dedicated server and your friend is not online you won't be able to join their server, and iirc the join code is randomly generated each time the server is started locally. You might try to ask in #dedicated-server if the issue persists.

I'm in the dark forest, in the rain. There's a cloud of blue dots floating in one spot, abd the blue light is reflecting off a tree.
Anything for me to do with it, or is it just pretty?
Essentially, I think those are just fireflies, but keep a look out for a similar glow with little plants near them, you can pick those
Thistles? Yea, those are cool. Thanks for the heads up.
Yes, gather them when you see them, they'll be used for a few recipes
Each biome can have some unique environmental effects like those blue sparkles in black forest.
How do I unlock raft recipe ?
I think you need bronze nails.
Daaamn
No, that's not right. Hang on.
How do I get to the elder then lmao
Check your "Misc" building tab. Should be there.
hi everyone! has someone tested the staff of fracturing in depth? it seem to have some interesting mechanics expecially with parry and i woud love if you can help me!? thx a lot
Still wondering why a rtx5080 is only getting 45fps in this game sometimes... only 20% gpu use
what do you mean exactly?
Should just need wood resin and leather scraps iirc, but if you already beat eikthyr and there's some black forest near the area you set up base, i would suggest going to get some copper and tin mined with the antler pickaxe and make bronze nails and a bronze axe if you don't have the early axes to chop down some birch trees and get some finewood to make a better boat than the raft
Im having a hard time finding copper lmao
its about dmg: when you parry an enemy staff of fracturing often does way more dmg then ember staff, i suspect it is because it fractures and the various small hits gets the dmg moltiplied by the stagger debuff
staggered enemies always take 2x damage
They look like big rocks with shiny vein lines on them, they're buried pretty deep with the top showing so be sure to dig up around it to get the most of the copper you can from the vein
indeed but this moltiplier seems to give staff of fracturing a lot more dmg than its usual base dmg
staff of fracturing has a very high damage increase per upgrade compared to other weapons
staff of ember dont do that much dmg on staggerd enemies, while its base dmg is surely superior than the fracturing one
against a moving enemy you're less likely to hit every projectile on fracturing
but all weapons have the same damage increase against a staggered enemy
it seemed to me that the dmg on staggered enemies is way higher with fracturing, like almost double
base damage * 12 on fracturing is higher than embers
so the real problem is that staff of fracturing has base dmg inconsistent?
yes, because it's split between the smaller projectiles which won't always hit
its still strange to me how dmg sometimes skyrocket on staggered mobs
XD
well thx a lot for the answers!!
Staff of Fracturing has potentially very high dps against single target which exceeds Staff of Ember tremendously, but it has poor AoE capability.
Staff of Fracturing could be a strong option in DN since the devs plan to have a bigger creature
Probably, especially when we are able to upgrade it to quality 4.
Only thing missing is upgradable summon, aka charred warrior summons
I honestly think we should be able to use fader's drop to make an upgrade on the skellies
i really like it tho, it also seem to stop enemy attacks animations sometimes
how do i kill the troll chasing me the entire time
Stop running?
So is he chasing you or camping you?
both
Gonna need more detail.
Walking backwards and shooting with bow is valid tactic. Also melee and dodging, whichever way you find easier for you.
if already in bronze age atgeir
no ive not even got a shield or bow new to the game lol
Stay out of the black forest lol
ouch sry didnt want to spoil
at this stage anything is a spoiler id say try on your own or run ๐

Hello, I'm new here and I asked this, basically my problem is how to make a copy/paste of a world + the buildings in it. I think I havn't broken any rule and probably no one has seen my question. Can someone help me please ?
Making a copy of the world is easy enough, but i have no idea how to rename it really
why would you want that?
If they mean the buildings in it that they themselves built, that can only be done by renaming the world/files.
I've seen some people offer "modules", IE the world they created, to others. So they may want to do something along those lines.
Hi i accidentaly spawned a yggdrassil root inside my base with commands is there a way to delete it now or reverse the command?
Try "forcedelete <id of the root you used to spawn it>" ๐
-# Without all the " and <> ofc ๐
Oki it worked thank you very much
hi hi, so when i quit and reopen vanilla valheim it keeps taking me to old save files even though i just recently saved.
i started investigating this cuz i lost 30 mins of progress since my character didnt have any armor on when i reopened.
anyone know whats going on?
You on xbox or pc?
pc
I started seeing weird terrain stuff
like see-through textures
edged cuts
sometimes it looks like it wasn't terraformed by me
what is going on?
Are you in plains?
least of these I saw in plains, but there as well
Does anyone know how this backpack mod work?
#screenshots message this is in meadows
I ahven't been in this base for quite a while, but this appeared
Plains having weird ground textures along chunk borders is known issue, sometimes it can happen in other biomes too i believe
This can sometimes happen, also probably a chunk border, if you teraform it a bit you should be able to get rid of it
Folks in #mods-discussion might know ๐
that's the thing - I DID terrain it before.
it looks like it snapped back or something
Strange
not sure of the current state of terrain tools, but that used to happen to me a lot more, closer to first release, the terrain stuff forgetting how it was due to some factor
i accidently spawned in a waystone in my world and idk how to get rid of it
is there a command i can use to destroy it
yikes
hopefully made or have a world backup? pickaxe and such dont affect it? building mode / hammer removal?
its out of the way thank god i was smart enough to put it somewhere irrelevant
The forcedelete command will get rid of it, use whatever id you used to spawn it in with
What is the best foods/weapons for hunting stone golem? I have carapace chest plate and I'm thinking my porcupine? I have a black metal pickaxe as well if I can get them to a place I can jump on them
You should be totally fine at that tier, an iron mace is more than enough. Just practice on twig if you arent good at parrying. One attack he has will barely stagger him if parry it the others will leave you with 6 hits
If you're already at Mistlands you don't need to optimize for killing something 2 biomes earlier.
Easy for you to say I still suck at surviving. Like 3-4 hits from it and I'm cooked. I can block but I rarely know when to parry.
Twig attack is golem attacks
I couldnt fight them confidently until I used twig
Just curious, since I have a porcupine, which is better, the iron mace or porcupine?
def go w procupine
actually im not sure on that one bc the porc does pierce. either way with parry you can do it
The iron mace seems to always do more blunt dmg than the porcupine
But the porcupine is easily better for all around dmg
i just dislike having a porcupine in my hand ๐
thanks guys โค๏ธ I killed four golems and got me my trophy. It wasn't as hard as I thought haha
I love my porcupine to bits, but my himminafl takes up my secondary weapon slot ๐ญ
WHy in the hell am I unable to build an anvil
I got a forge already what is the issue?
you can't place crafting improvements too close to each other
Am I looking at it wrong because it's not showing 8n the crafting or am I just insane
have you made bronze?
how do i tighten up my fps around a super large base?
Not much you can do. Minimize instances, donโt leave stuff lying around.
do baby animals grow when im out of render?
Taming and breeding are only processes that require player proximity. So they will grow to adults even when you're not in same area.
brillaint thank you mate
if i tame boar on raspberries can i feed them carrots to breed them?
They eat both, so no matter which one.
They also eat red mushrooms, blueberries, turnips and onions. But raspberries are easiest and most plentiful.
is the map just the big circle you see in the map interface, or is there other worlds or smh like that?
just noticed i guess the branches of yggdrasil in the sky so i guess there's others dimensions?
Just the map area on world map view.
thanks!
Is it possible to somehow change the ore smelting time, since itโs really hard for me to wait for the entire smelting process?Or is there a mod that adds this?
That's also an option, but you can only sleep at night.
You can sleep after midday.
And?
Build more smelters so you can fill all of your ore then just sleep and it's all done in one shot.
Or.. understand the game is intended to take time. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
As an option, thanks for the idea
my boars wont breed does anyone know why this is i cant seem to send a ss of it

is there a way to extinguish fire?
Destroy it.
ive just sent it in mate
do i get the fuel back?
I believe so.
Otherwise this will learn you to not overfuel things.
Baited. 
Ah, one of those. They can't eat if food is at that placement.
One of my favorite things is when animal cruelty boxes stop working.
Thank you for making my day.
oh where do i need to place the food?
Other side of wall.
It's finicky tho, the food must be very close to the wall and animal so they are able to eat it.
its wierd cause they ate 1 of the food in that position
how long is 1 wood as fuel in a fire?
1hour and 23 minutes of in-game time i believe
do you know how much like 1h in game is irl?
The whole day (day + night) is 30 irl minutes
So 1 in-game hour should be 1,25 irl minutes
Wood is probably the most abundant resource in the game. So if you waste a bit on fires it isn't going to hurt you.
FICSIT Inc. has not sent any pioneers to the 10th realm yet, so waste is still allowed at this time. ๐
thanks
@frosty frost Coffee Stain Publishing is publishing Valheim.

@tired root i got it working cheers mate - also do i need to feed the babies before i slay them or will they starve before adult stage?
Feeding is required only for breeding, animals never die due to hunger.

oh right thats brillant cheers mate

Question, if youre vulnerable to damage types, do you also need more block armor to block attacks, or is it calculated only after taking the hit?
blocking damage modifiers (serpent scale pierce resist) -> block armor -> character damage modifiers -> worn armor
You won't need more block armor
Your shield isn't vulnerable, so weakness will apply only to the damage that gets past it.
So, if trees drop seeds roughly 1 time out of 10, sooner or later I'm gonna run out of trees.
I imagine that won't happen for a while yet.
Depends. I've had oaks that had a 100% drop rate on 3 acorns per tree sometimes.
That's not bad. I'm trying to farm Birches, and it's not working.
Birch has average seed drop below 1, so they re not sustainable sadly, but oaks and beech trees have it above 1, so you can farm those indefinetly ๐
Unfortunate.
you can farm either indefinitely or run out of both, it's just better odds with oak
Any recommended like weapons for the swamp? Or armour based to counter poison and etc (and should I build a house there because I got a 3 traders on the island and I got s tp
a mace definitely! just make a bit of poison risitance mead and ferment it in the fermenter. personally i dont like houses in the swamp bc of the darkness monsters and rain. if you want to i do reccoment building it in a big tree (the indestructuble ones)
is the food system like the more different type of foods you eat the more hp you have?
each food has a set amount of max health and stamina so you can choose different foods for a balance of stats that matches your playstyle
you can eat up to three foods but they all have to be unique
thanks
The platters are a big help too with longer times and equal amounts of hp and stam. They add up with a good food.
They sure do. Later they are also solid with Eitr.
want to farm some stuff for frostner before bonemass, what's recommended?
max lvl root set, frost mead and what weapons?
Mountain is approachable with iron tier weapons. Any can do.
Ew, Frostner.
What?
What?
Are you having the same problem as Pamb?
Then same answer, dont use the mods that cause this
idk
No idea, preferably turn all off and then enable one by one untill you find which ones cause it
yes
but i got 112 mods
Well that is quite possibly the problem XD
which one do u think it is
How could i possibly know that? If you need help with mods then #mods-issues would be better place to ask
that chat is more dead than the isle evrima๐
But you have the best chance of actually getting help there
To each to their own, but risks for mods causing problems in early access game is quite high. 
And?
As long as it needs to, final biome update is coming and bringing game out of early access.
mabey they can hire more devs
Because game will have definite ending.
Oh it certainly is a story game ๐
We are killing the Forsaken for Odin to earn our place in Valhalla.
why do we need valhalla when the meadows biome is way better then valhalla
valhalla has the super secret hall of necks
Super secret neck sausages

0 star troll tbh
Idk, are you level4? 
Is it at all possable for a raid to get stuck and last longer then normal?
If you are not in the red circle then it will not end untill another raid triggers
And what is "longer then normal"? Some raids last longer then others.
This was just a ground was shaking event. Usually I time it out but it just went well above time.
That one should last 80 seconds
Yeah this one was about 5 min I kept re entering the circle and got 6 more trols over the time
When you leave the circle, the event pauses. And when you kill a event mob, new spawns
Has that changed or has all ways been that way?
Pretty sure events are unchanged for the last few years.
Been that way as long as i can remember
-# Which may not mean much tbh xD
I have had your hunted and they time out when I wasent in it. Just possably never noticed of late I guess.
I think the Hunted raid specifically times out when you're not in the circle, just due to the different conditions of how it triggers out in the wilderness. Game doesn't expect you to stay in one place for the duration of an entire raid while travelling.
But for all the others happening at one of your "bases", they require you inside the circle for the time to tick
What do you think of 3 newest one like she's hot on your trail those all time out when I'm not in the circle?
I'd highly doubt it.
I'd think it's exclusive to the hunted raid because that's the only one not requiring a base
Yep the "you are being hunted..." should be the only exception
it would help so much if we could post screenshots asking questions lol
found a structure ive never seen before and im pretty sure its not modded
You can post it to #screenshots ๐
i did last night but i think it got deleted, reposted it
Yeah that is new one since the 5th aniversary update ๐
And it got deleted since mods are visible in all likelyhood
weird, showing vanilla structure lol
The structure is vanilla, yes, but the inventory and character are not ๐
Afaik just a location where you can find lots of rockys at once, not sure if there is any lore around it, probably only devs know ๐
supposedly theres only 1 of these that spawn on the entire map
Correct, similarly to traders.
I understand there's a max dig limit. Is there a similar max raise limit?
yh dont know how high it is but theres defo is a linit
I'm trying to flatten a rough area, and I think I hit the limit while filling in a crevesis
oh could be a mod that ||chages ||that but i feel like the limit is pretty big
Yes. Ground can move only 7m from starting elevation in either direction.
Irritating.
๐ค
dk why that happened lmao
Limitations spark our creativity in order to work around and within them.
are u building something big
I sketched out a compound that's 32 tiles square.
Not sure if that counts as "big" to some of you.
i always try build small and compact
I do those, too. But I'm wanting a central base.
roof could be hard to build safly on that tho
Well, it's gonna be a hollow square. The inside corridors will be 5 tiles across, forming a square with a large courtyard.
The dig limit is extremely frustrating lol. I run into it constantly. My prairie base is a castle built on a burial chamber with a deep trench around it so enemies can't reach it, but some of the walls are high and some are very low bc of the limits.....plus there's a stupid shelf I can't get rid of on one side
theres no mods out for this yet ?
Something aproxomate to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_rustica
Only when its a single structure. My entire base is bigger than that. But it contains many structures, not just one.
#mods-discussion would know.
Its been at least 3 years since I've built such huge structures.
I usually try to either meet in the middle with the heights or terrace it out. Or, find a more flat area to build in.
I may be doing the "more flat area" thing, but I'm just outside the swamp. Far enough to avoid the mobs.
ahhhhhhhh im trying to make a starter house but the stability is so bad
im trying to make roof but like its just breaking
Looks like you're floating your roof far too much, you'll need to run pillars from the ground up through the building to the roof to add support.
That would look ugly no? Is there any other way I can make a roof
Yeah of course, floating your roof less.
Wdym by floating
It's unsupported
Sorry carpenter term haha, make smaller dimensions for your building.
So I have to make a smaller house
Not smaller, just less wide open spaces under an unsupported roof.
You can make it taller, or wider, or even u-shaped, etc.
Or add pillars.
Would making rooms in my house help
If the walls run up to the ceiling and connect to the ground then yes.
You can run walls through pillars if you want temporary support.
You'll want foundational support, which is the ground
Yeah but the ground isn't flat
So I had to make it elevated
It doesn't matter. I am not saying build from the ground, just connect a pole to it.
It usually works in my other houses idk why it's not working here
Hmm I'll try this
Im curious, if you craft like for example the Nidhogg sword and upgrade it and you make it to Thundering Nidhogg, does it resets the current level?
Yes it does
Ok, thank you ๐
Is there a YouTube tutorial for it
I am sure there are, there's countless building tutorials, it's just difficult for me to find what you'd need as I am on my phone right now.
Is it possible to transport haldor or hildir into my base somehow?
Nope 
with mods sure
or even cheat engine? just spawn them in potentially?
Just make two portal right near them, same thing.
Yeah well thats what i did but im a builder and wanted to make my base feel more lively i guess ill just use commands or spawn a bunch of dvergr
Hmmm, maybe build a base around it
Hi all, Iโve recently switched to pc, and I find my game crashing semi often. Itโs always a โunityโ crash, I have no mods installed, the game files are uncorrupted and my drivers are up to date. Any suggestions? Iโm not sure what could be going wrong. Itโs an older gaming pc, but it should be able to handle it without issue
should i start making a new base around the swamps its close to 3 traders. a swamp,black forest.
Sure! Play as you like!
Do I need to take two boars to breed them or just one and breed with some wild one?
You need two tamed boars to breed them
Boars have no follow mechanic, they can be moved by running towards them or dragging with harpoon.
Try googling "unity crashes with Valheim" and see what comes up. Probably a driver issue.
To add, if you use Vulkan it can have issues with crashing since last update in February.
How rare is the dvegr guard tower structure that has a basement on it?
Forgot to ask, what variant is the dvegr tower with the basement?
Edit: All good, its variant 3 ๐
are mods for valheim server based or character based?
like backpack, ore support and similar stuff
Better ask in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966, but some mods can be just client based tho.

does anyone know what I'd need to carry into Mistlands on a boat?
Are you going by boat from your base?
I'd take good amount of black metal in that case.
i believe so yes, so unteleportable materials
do I not need to make a forge, upgrades and crafting table?
Not necessarily.
I see...
Black metal because it's needed for one thing that is used to collect certain material.
Maybe also take a good amount of iron, just in case
There are sources for iron tho.
Oh true
you'll probably want the mats for a stonecutter to easily harvest black marble, but a forge is only necessary if you're playing no portals or want to use iron to build
Oh that's convenient
I'll take note of that and no I'm not playing no portals, just wondering since iron mace required a level 2 forge and I'm wondering if I would require lv 5+ to craft Mistlands gear
mistland gear has a new crafting station
oh, okay thank you
I've not even beaten Yagluth yet but I feel like we're overprepared since Moder was a breeze
This is a great pun given what her power does.
I found 2 maypoles like 10 meters apart, how rare is it?
It is very rare ๐
Depends on time of year.
When you can build your own, not rare at all ๐
In dark forest I keep getting killed in the dungeon whats a good way to clear them
Use club ๐ skeletons are weak to blunt dmg
Oh ok thanks dose that work on the glowing green aura one to
Yep ๐
Thank you
Also, if you have a shield, use it ๐
Make the huge hammer as well. Stagbreaker. It has a nice AoE and makes the masses of skeletons die faster.
I still died as for that hammer I aint good with ranged attacks so getting deer heads takes me forever unless you have easier way
flint spear can be thrown at deer with the secondary attack. You can easily sneak up on them from behind.
The player is within 40 meters of at least 3 base structures. This is not required for the "You are being hunted..." event. / Boars breed while closer than 64 meters to the player, meaning i can afk at 50+ meters and don't have to worry about raids?
The exact distance for breeding is finicky, but you should be able to find the right spot, yes.
Trying a playthrough on the xbox and the opening cutscene is struggling to play. Is the Xbox a worse performing console than I thought?
It's an Xbox One X. I've done multiple pc playthroughs and was hopeful that Xbox was worth trying.
13 year old console struggling to run 7ish year old game?
That tracks 100%.
The XBONE is also almost 2 generations ago with the new announcement of Helix.
There's a reason Valheim isn't coming to PS4, for reference.
Fair enough. It's my brother's old console. I've only ever used it for streaming and lately Crunchyroll has been difficult for it.
Same for Switch 1.
Valheim on Nintendo Wii when?
No N64? 
do mushrooms spawn in the same place?
Yes. Marking them spots on your map makes your future forage runs easier.
Yeh my 15 year old xbox one is basically impossible to play anything on atp, i stream my games on xbox cloud gaming from my phone now and cast to my TV
It works pretty well, galaxy s22u and gets 50-60 fps even in storms and heavy instance areas
After an hour or so, I miss my mouse and keyboard. Controls aren't bad but building is hard cause of input lag and generally less precise movement.
Only had that issue on the old console, haven't had any real lag while streaming
what do you reccomend i spend my first bits of iron on i have 75
iron nails for a longship, a shield and the iron pickaxe
Temporal stonecutter for crafting grinding wheel on it for forge upgrade.
Yes, i think it is the problem. When I try to Copy/Paste simply, there is still a dynamic relation which I suspect to be related to the names. is there a simple way to Copy/Paste a world with all the buildings inside AND to have a different name AND that they are dissociated properly and no remaining any dynamic link between the 2 anymore ?
is modding with nexus or thunderstore better?
Someone in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 might be able to give more insight.
oh thanks
Hey all.
Unique issuer here, running a heavily modded server.
One of our users suddenly has a very strange issue, where if they connect to the server, after about 10 seconds they lag out and freeze.
If they disconnect and rejoin, it just starts making copies of their character, running spot, floating, etc.
They can then run around the server and do things, but they are entirely invisible.
I have no idea how to remedy this.
I have added their log if any smart people fancy trying to fathom what could be doing it.
It is also spamming.

Probably best to ask in the #mods-issues channel.
Or join the Valheim modding Discord.
Do you have a roof above it?
Iron Pickaxe is the highest priority cause it's more durable and lets you break Mountain metals if you're feeling bold. Everything else is personal preference.
-If you're low on storage space, you can make a few reinforced chests to replace your normal ones
-If you do a lot of fighting, you can upgrade your weapons to Iron ones (you don't need Iron armor)
-If you have a lot of other materials, you can start upgrading your Forge level and then upgrade your current gear
There's no single best priority unless you're interested in boss prep. His weakness is ||blunt (club) damage so you'd make an Iron Mace|| to kill him a little more easily.
Brilliant thanks mate - I have bronze helmet troll cape and bear trousers and top - is this armour ok to complete the swamp and early mountins
I haven't played since a little before the Bear update so idk enough to say yes or no
In the swamp its better to switch over to one of the two armors available there.
What food combo should I use
I just killed 1st boss
And eating queens jam , carrot soup and boar jerky
Seems like a solid food combo to me ๐ค
that food will be good until you get turnips
Thats decent for now, depends on if you're wanting more durability or stamina. I generally go 2 health 1 stamina food.
hey guys i just bought valheim shall i just play randomly or watch some sort of guides?
I think its much better to figure it all out on your own, but its up to you. Pay attention to the bird, at the very least.
I'd switch boar jerky to deer stew, otherwise looks solid.
HP is kind of critical.
Thinking same but hunting deer is pain
Heh, not I get waaaaaay too much deer. Practice.
What makes it pain?
Crude bow surely... 
ITs not that bad. I still prefer it to a spear, at least. I imagine it has more to do with sneaking up on them, which you need to do for pretty much any weapon. It gets pretty easy by the time your skill gets to 20.
Spear is a way to go for me, I haven't crafted crude bow for a long time and intend to continue that way.
Skip straight to finewood or even huntsman bow.
Well, thats the beauty of Valheim, we can play it however we like best.
Definitely. Plus spear cost less scraps than crude bow, which is not plentiful yet at the start.
I'm bit biased to spears tho.
Plus you need a lot of it for arguably more important things. I mean, I do use spears for a short time.
I just also want my bow skill to get rather high sooner than later.
I don't worry too much about bow skill anymore, I mainly prefer melee but use bow in certain situations. At least in serpent hunting and sniping drakes.
Yeah but both do 1 shot
The thing is aiming
I don't worry about bow as much as I used to, but I still like to get it relatively high.
Still practice. Plus the bows make that easier as you get better bows.
Bow is lifesaver for me tho
Surely, bow is useful. It can also be very OP with higher skill levels.
When I played on servers with others, I often was referred to as Robin Hood. So I did get very good with bows early on. Just now I rely more on melee weapons and my shields.
I have skill issue in parring ๐
You can practice parrying with weaker mobs like necks or greylings.
I feel bows are safe but slow and melee is fast but risky
It will be very useful to learn early.
Hmm will go for it
Bows get VERY fast with higher skill. Almost like a machine gun if you hit 80 and higher.
Does there any thing to use on deers so that we get more loots ?
Ohh
Just look for starred creatures, which become easier to find the further out from center you get.
It's also about timing - press block around 0,25 seconds before the enemy lands its hit on you. Successful parry gives that loud noise and staggers the enemy.
Starred enemies drop more loot.
Good tip as I didn't found any stared deer yet
OF course you can run into deadlier enemies the further out from center you get, in new biomes. So be careful about that.
But in server that loud sound and attack both delayed xD
I fought fast and furious beer in last hour
It was headache
Yeah, they are tankier mobs.
Bronze sword is waste i think
I mean... technically lol
It's damage is hell low on bears or trolls
It's actually one of the more effective weapon against bears.
Bows, spears and atgeirs are more effective against trolls.
Bears resist piercing, trolls are weak, especially head shots, where they are extra weak, to pierce.
As long as you time to parry the bear's attack, you are f-i-n-e ๐
Yeah, and both resist blunt.
Alright thanks
The swipe attacks are very easy to parry
But in server with low pings
It's not f-i-n-e
Also if you have killed 2 bears already you can craft another effective weapon from its paws.
Who do you play on servers with?
And that dumb bear does 2 heavy attack on me countinuesly
I am from IST and they are from EST
Basically india and america
For paw we need whole bear armour bonus also ig
Thats a big difference. I've played with S Koreans before. Servers suck in general.
You don't need the full armour set to use the paw weapons
Paw weapons are just fist weapon type, you can use them freely with any armor.
I thought It works on full potential with bear armour
Nope.
True
Full bear armor grants +10% slash which is beneficial to paw weapon sure. Not requirement tho.
I see
Paw weapon plus the troll armor is the best built
IT works with any slash, paw, axe, swords.
I like the bear armor the best from the forest.
With good shield use you don't even feel the draw backs.
I like bear with abyssal razor
Is there to much diffrence between iron sledge vs demolisher?
Higher damage and bigger aoe from my experience
But both are the same in terms of mechanics
Reopening this problem, as it seems to have NOTHING to do with any mods, there is some form of handshake error occuring it seems, a sync issue.
If anyone fancies trying to work it out I would appreciate it, four hours in, and still at a loss for what is causing it.
You think about the same speed in strike as well?
Its still best to ask in #mods-issues since you're running a modded server
Mechanically they're both the same, attack speed, attack intervel, attack recovery, etc
Only increase is damage and aoe
OK cool thank you
Still worth getting for the aoe and higher dmg overall
Really good against the mistland's boss
Not the boss directly but something else
Idk nothing about nothing, but if they're having a disconnect issue or something like that, maybe they have some VPN they've started using or their firewall decided to block something. You might have a search through the channel for some issue like that, maybe something will spark a result.
@jade olive correction: both have the same AOE sadly
but still really good for the overall damage
Iron sledge is 4 biomes back
They have no form of VPN!
oh well thats ok I just dont want to waste all the recourses
It is odd, they ran to the portal room, and about five minutes later their character moved there.
But they can see everything else running in real time, it is like one sided lag.
It is like their upload speed is non existent, but purely on the valheim server
You're still gonna need alot of iron
oh I got that covered just didnt want to do both is there not much difference I figured the demolishes be a bit better
vulkan or just valheim?
The affected user seems to having an issue where the "sent" on the ZDO pool is entirely empty, and the second line of the ZDO pool is entirely mad.
What on earth could be causing this?
Is there no heel command for our mounts? My 2-star asksvin ran off and I can't find it now. I had the materials to make another saddle and about 40 more back at my camp, but it was still a trek.
Hope you had it make a 2 star egg ๐
Stockpiled a bunch of those things for the future. 2-stars are great for breeding en masse. I release them here and there as giant hulking guard lizards, and damn, do they go to work.
