valheim-help

[frosty frost]

Scales 🙂

[sharp nova]

ah heck

[spring gulch]

Look up valheim prefabs you can spawn rocks in vanilla you just have to find the mountain one

[rich topaz]

yea i did that

but was hoping for a repairing option

[spring gulch]

Ah maybe break it and make a new one 🤔

[rich topaz]

yea i did that

[spring gulch]

Then what r u asking

[rich topaz]

but was hoping for a repairing option

[spring gulch]

Dont think so

[drowsy crane]

@elfin sky Rules 1 and 3 #rules-and-info

[spring gulch]

To be fair i just woke up and didnt see the question was about repairing the rock not replacing it 😂

[vapid warren]

If you want the trophy you can use the harpoon to drag them ashore

[sharp nova]

i'm more concerned about the scales tbh... that serpent scale shield looks sweet. ♎

[vapid warren]

Same thing for the scales

The trphy is really sick looking tho

[tired root]

Trophy is also required for few crafting recipes.

[vapid warren]

Yep

[soft notch]

A few?

[iron talon]

Hello

Has anyone had problems with greyling dwarfs spawns and they not spawning when you put fire around the spawn?

I have dug a hole with fire to collect

[tired root]

||Heavy bait|| and ||Fins of Destiny||.

[vapid warren]

I have been away for too long, that second one is news to me and i never got around to do the first lol

[soft notch]

Same lol

[rich topaz]

the campfire prevents spawning its the same area as the crafting table shows when building

[soft notch]

We never bothered with harpoon this play through cause we didn’t need the serpent scales for shield

[vapid warren]

Unless a recent change, greydwarf nests arent suppressed by player base objects

[vapid warren]

Did you build over or below the nest?

[sharp nova]

welcome back, i noticed you're the one who made the suggestion post styleguide. you must've been important

[iron talon]

Below

I build hearths to burn them

[vapid warren]

Not the fires, just anything

Like floor or roof

[vapid warren]

I was very active from 2021 until 2023/4

[iron talon]

So you cant really do that?

[rich topaz]

ooh you are right. my bad

[iron talon]

What can you do to farm?

[vapid warren]

What biome have you reached?

[sharp nova]

plenty of new content to explore i hope you have fun

[rich topaz]

it must be this then

[iron talon]

I'm at mountain now

[twilit tinsel]

are roofs always staying red i swear ive got support beams but they never go green

[vapid warren]

Hadnt open valheim since july. Ive got 8 hours since last night lol

[vapid warren]

You can dig out under yhe pit and throw tamed wolves into it

Thats what i do lol

[spring gulch]

Roof = no dwarf

[vapid warren]

Yup

[twilit tinsel]

also some are orange so im assuming so im confused

[iron talon]

haha nice suggestion

[spring gulch]

I haven't tried this method i learned it recently sounds fun

[vapid warren]

The fire should still work, but it will also break the fires over time

[iron talon]

I removed the roof with hearths fire only. They appear more often now

[spring frigate]

do i have a chance to get 2* boar from breeding 2* boar with non star boar?

[rich topaz]

yes

[frosty frost]

Yep, 50/50 for 0 star and 2 star 🙂

[spring gulch]

A 2 star will always make a 2 star baby

[rich topaz]

the 2 star gives 2 star babys. the 0 star gives 0 star babys

[spring frigate]

okey then good thing i didnt turned this one into bacon

can he dspawn tho? it still tries to bite my ass but place where i have home is quite far and wonder if it can make it there with me..

[vapid warren]

Only thing that despawns are event mobs and night spawns

[sudden galleon]

no pig has been harm in this post 😉

[rich topaz]

think you can burry the campfire so they cant hit it. some people use braziers as wel

[vapid warren]

And night spawns dont despawn after taming has started

[vapid warren]

Well be careful if you do, there is nothing but empty air underneath the ground, so if they are too far down theyll break cause they wknt be connected to the ground

[spring gulch]

Good tip

[frosty frost]

Burrying the campfire will not matter if you are using the flames to dmg stuff, that will still give dmg to them iirc 🤔

[spring frigate]

Bacon has been contained! Question tho how much faith can i put into roundpole fences? its 2* and can hit quite hard

[rich topaz]

i dont know about that. but i do know the graydwarfs cant hit them that way

[frosty frost]

If you put few rows you are fine, just make sure you are nor seen after and it will calm down 🙂

[frosty frost]

The campfires take dmg if creature or player burns on them, as far as i remember it was done to make it more difficult to burn bosses with them.

[rich topaz]

yea i think you are right on that

[sharp nova]

ping?

ah nvm

[rich topaz]

is that why people like to use the braziers? or does that work the same?

[frosty frost]

I am honestly not sure 😄 i pretty much dont use braziers

[rich topaz]

i never made a graydwarf farm😂

[frosty frost]

I did make an attempt on it, but that one was manual/wolf one xD

[rich topaz]

i watched a lot of playthrough that people made 1. but 9 out of 10 break after a while

[spring gulch]

The best option is puffer

[vapid warren]

I usually do two layers of fence for taming, then dont go too close and itll calm down. As long as youre nearby but not too close, taming takes 30 minutes and then they wont break anything again

I think best option is also farming blood magic at the same time 👀

[livid mortar]

I usually spend the taming process farming my sneak skill.

[vapid warren]

Blood magic was about greydwarf farming btw

[full mesa]

Are BM structures frost resistant?

Or not

Im thinking of remaking my greydwarf farm and instead use ice blob over regular blob for afking the farm

[vapid warren]

Blackmetal chest is resistant but not immune to frost

[full mesa]

What about heavy buildables

[vapid warren]

There arent really any

[full mesa]

man that sucks

[frosty frost]

Black marble is immune

[full mesa]

Well back to the good old green blobs

[vapid warren]

Oh you meant black marble, ivd only seen blackmetal shortened to BM

Or?

[full mesa]

@true steeple I could but they too THICK to fit in

[full mesa]

correct I meant black marble mb

[true steeple]

does it slide out if you place it with a bomb?

[full mesa]

Not fall out... but break quantum physics and universal knowledge and

glitch out

Because its designed so that the blobs can SEE the greydwarfs but not get seen so it can attack and do an AOE

and extra dmg due to sneak attack

[rich topaz]

if you did mean black marble : Black marble in Valheim is a superior building material, offering high structural integrity (1500 HP) and significant elemental resistance compared to stone

[spring gulch]

Oh heck yes I do this at the same time too

[full mesa]

superior but the grind is... 😭

Getting even a full iron chesr takes a bit

[rich topaz]

deconstruct deverger towers for easy access

[full mesa]

Still takes a bit due to a lot of exploring

I've been there and ni fun

[rich topaz]

if you making a magic farm the bm is the least grindy xD

[full mesa]

If only the trollstav had strong enough pickaxe dmg to destroy jotunn remains

[full mesa]

greydwarf farm

using ice blob over regular blobs

[rich topaz]

aah, my bad

[tired root]

Trollstav to clear out dvergrs in towers.

They won't even attack you when the meteor hits.

[full mesa]

Have a friend lads
-vikingman123

[vapid warren]

I mean obviously were clearly not friends with them

[sharp nova]

dragging a serpent ashore with a harpoon will necessitate that said serpent attacks my boat, right?

[thorn spire]

If the serpent can't reach you, it'll try to attack your boat.

[frosty frost]

You can also get it one hit away from dying, draw your bow and jump on his head when he comes close shooting him in the process. that way it will die and you will immediately pick all of the items it drops 🙂

[thorn spire]

If you're sailing and dragging it, yeah, it'll probably attack your boat.

[sharp nova]

should i use a bigger boat like a longship even though it can't beach as nicely?

[frosty frost]

It would be safer 🙂

[thorn spire]

I usually do. You get better speed with the longship.

you can jump out of the ship without losing your harpoon, then drag it ashore.

[sullen oasis]

Hello friends, I need help, I'm making a boar farm, where, according to the idea, 2 boars should be on top, and when giving birth they would fall into the hole, (so that the restriction on reproduction does not work) I made a cell 2 by 2 meters (length t1 of the wall) they don't want to be happy and eat, but when I make a 2 by 4 meter room, they happily start reproducing. So, am I doing something wrong? Or was this fixed after some patch? (video 3 years ago)

[sharp nova]

am i able to drag it out of the water and onto land to make it less effective

[frosty frost]

The animals behaviour was changed somewhat some years ago, yes. These tpes of farms are really finnicky ever since.

[thorn spire]

sure can.

[sharp nova]

wow

thanks mann (you too asatru)

[sullen oasis]

Are there any working alternatives?

[thorn spire]

it will try to go back into the water though. I would recommend making sure it's one or two hits from dead before beaching it.

[frosty frost]

No idea, i just use normal pen for them.

[thorn spire]

Just try different options with different wall materials or shutters.

[sullen oasis]

Thanks for the reply.

[thorn spire]

I usually do the boar farm same as Asatru, just a pen. My chickens will eat through iron cage walls.

[vapid warren]

Itll attack a little bit, but youll outspeed it too. As long as you dont have a raft youll be fine. Longship recommended

[sharp nova]

i have a bad idea

when it's very low on health jump in the water and beat it to death with bare fists

[vapid warren]

I wont disagree with that

[sharp nova]

i actually did this successfully before i loaded a backup when my karve broke

[frosty frost]

For that i would really recommend bow 😄 or some weapon at least

[sharp nova]

can't hold weapon in the open water

[vapid warren]

Did you mean on shore or in deep water?

[sharp nova]

deep water

[frosty frost]

You can mid-jump until you fall into the water 🙂

[vapid warren]

Easy to miss the scales and trophy then

[tired root]

Timing jump and last shot so you end up in water before the drops sink is my current way to get trophies and scales.

[vapid warren]

Seems risky with how rare they are lol. Pulling thrm ashore is easy enough

[tired root]

In my previous run all 6 serpents I encountered dropped trophy and I got them all with the method.

Sure it will take practice to get the timing right, and to know where the materials drop.

[vapid warren]

Fair

[spring gulch]

As a professional die-er it is a scary feat at first but your ladder is right there. But I usually keep land mindful when sailing and go to a coast because I dont like to lose any mats and sometimes a dandelion will deny my precious scales

[next ivy]

Punch that thing lol! (Just saw ur previous message, looks like you were already going to!)

[sharp nova]

i've done it before and it worked that's why i was going to do it again 😤

[barren rivet]

literally possible. what i do is kill it as im falling off the boat into its head to get all the goodies

[sharp nova]

have you ever used a knife lunge

[barren rivet]

hmm… no. spear throw, axe secondary, and punch

idk if the knife hitbox goes low enough. ive missed with other weapons even after CTA improved targeting, got me permadead once, i was very disappointed

[tawny wyvern]

does anyone have a good chicken farm video tutorial? The ones ive looked at all the comments say they are outdated

[vapid warren]

This is the one that i use. It worked fine last time i tried it https://youtu.be/klQg1f41U3c?is=Fq3yOP_dwlS8rE0l

[tawny wyvern]

okay thank you!

[glad current]

I just built a coop for mine and an enclosed yard. Any eggs laid inside get warm and hatch; the ones outside get made into omelets

[vapid warren]

Yeah, but with this one the eggs drop out of range so they can keep breeding. I build mine so one side of eggs get hatcbed and the other one doesnt

Can just put it on and do other stuff for a while

[glad current]

Your poor mistreated chickens

[soft notch]

We had chickens growing up, you don't know just how poor they are

[glad current]

So did I

[topaz herald]

I am playing a melee playthrough. I am using towershields and veryhard combat modifiers. I seem to take a lot of stagger from my own biome enemys and usually cant block 2 attacks without getting staggered. Is this because of the shields or just because the enemyes deal so much damage?

[true steeple]

with valheim's armor system enemies in very hard can do up to 4x the damage against an armored or blocking player compared to normal difficulty, so you can only block and parry the weakest attacks

[vapid warren]

Yeah very hard is dodge simulator

[topaz herald]

Okay so even when using bucler parry I take around same stagger?

[true steeple]

you'll take less but still a lot more than double normal

[topaz herald]

Ok ty

[frozen basin]

hello 😄

[barren rivet]

mods?

idk mods are crazy. it might have "equipped" your gear you had equipped when you logged in with mods, so when u logged again without the mods they disappeared into the phantom realm. id try just using the backpack or gear or whatever mod and see if they reappear

hm. guess they got gobbled into modland, idk why else just your equips would be missing

[subtle parrot]

I mean, just spawn them in tbh

[barren rivet]

if animals dont have enough space they dont breed

[jolly tapir]

I know it would be too op but I really wish all tamed creatures could follow lol

[barren rivet]

a single layer of grausten wall would be fine temporarily, just dont make things break it down. when i bred them once i did it inside a fortress so no worries about escape

you could also make a saddle and ride them wherever. oh you mean your fort's original doors. tbh i made flamemetal doors on mine soi could open and close them like a person, nothing is going to break down your doors. make an airlock if you must

[graceful acorn]

I'll say it again nice Brand New profile Picture

[barren rivet]

ya, people keeping the doors intact is like the most overkill thing ever, ive never had issue with things breaking flame metal doors. and if they do, oops, they just broke into your asksvin hatchery

surely you're faster than they are now, just prepare, make a trap of some kind. make literal bear traps to hold it still lol then you can wallit in or close doors or whatever. or dont, doesnt matter. its not necessary. i didnt find my asksvin farm particularly useful and i had plenty of materials just from being outside

[marble roost]

That one is mostly about the patience

[marble roost]

More stuff you build definitely impacts performance. Only really once it becomes a lot though

Storms for sure impact performance too. Mountain blizzards in particular are brutal

[rustic linden]

is it better to go for iron axe or just skip that one and gather abit more iron to get the battle axe

[tired root]

Depends, for combat or material gathering purpose?

[rustic linden]

well for the swamp, but i also need something to gather materials with so i was trying to see what was overall better

because axe for abbomination

[tired root]

Iron axe is not necessary since it cuts same wood types as bronze axe. But battleaxe is more suited for combat and can be used for woodcutting too.

[rustic linden]

alright then ill go for the battleaxe

[tired root]

Just FYI: any slash damage weapon will deal abominations well, they don't take extra damage from axes.

[rustic linden]

alright, yea well still the battleaxe has alot of slash damage so thats good

[tired root]

I personally recommend trying out battleaxes.

They have also great stagger abilities.

[vagrant bobcat]

Battleaxe is really nice on normal difficulty, you can perma stagger abomination and does lot of aoe dmg

normal attacks have 50% more of staggering and the fast jab does only 50% of dmg, but 4 times the stagger.. so usually 1 or 2 is enough to stagger most mobs

[barren rivet]

i enjoy it on hard difficulty too

[sharp nova]

tips on putting a hearth in one of my houses?

the last two hearths i've build have been in stone structures, this was pregenned and made of wood

i don't know where to put the hearth 🫠

[vapid warren]

support it by iron beams?

[sharp nova]

off the ground?
huh...

i'm probably just gonna put it... next to the house

[vapid warren]

i meant if you wanted it off the ground lol

my buildings are usually built above the ground

[sharp nova]

one of my newer houses is so gank, it doesn't even have wood floor it's all dirt

[frosty frost]

Then you can just put it on the floor 🙂

[urban quest]

does yagluths power buff magic as well? like my fire staff

[frosty frost]

Yep, if buffs both the fire dmg and blunt dmg the staff of embers does 🙂

[urban quest]

thank you so much ❤️

[urban quest]

me and my friend are about to face the hive queen, any advice?

[frosty frost]

Both mages?

[urban quest]

im a mage with a himmi polearm and my spine bow and hes a tanky warrior with full carapace, mistwalker, demolisher and his carapace shield

i use fire, undead summoning and blood protection

oh and he has the big crossbow

[frosty frost]

I would honestly ditch the dead raiser, it will jsut cost you eitr you will want to use elsewhere. since you have staff of embers and your friend has demolisher then you are pretty good on AoE dmg which will come in handy. I would say you are quite well prepared honestly 🙂
Bow will be a bit better than crossbow in dps but both are good if the Qeeen gets away from you, tho you might just want to chuck a few fireballs instead of switching to bow 😄

[urban quest]

oh

i invested so much resources into the dead raiser because its so cool, is it really that bad? its level 3

[willow raft]

@sturdy folio Did I call it into being or what? 😄

[sturdy folio]

Idk, did you?

[frosty frost]

The skeletons are good distreaction, but thats about it sadly 😅
Not a good return for the amount of eitr you need to summon them imo

[urban quest]

i trained my blood magic a bit to be 46

is it still bad?

[sturdy folio]

"So I just did some mining off camera"

[willow raft]

Should we ask @lapis terrace ?

[urban quest]

im sorry if i ask the same question over n over ahahaha, i just like my skelie bois, they're cool and i feel like a warlock

[frosty frost]

That would be something like 15-ish% of eitr use reduction...so around 85 eitr consumed per skeleton if i am not wrong, still quite a lot

[urban quest]

i guess i can just precast before battle

summon all 3, give shield to everyone, regen and then walk in

[frosty frost]

You totally can 😄 and you should also 100% use shield on them and your friend

[frosty frost]

You typed it faster xD

[vapid warren]

when i've killed queen solo its been going 3 eitr food and all 4 magic weapons, skellies are good distractions while i blow things up, especially while they have the shield

[urban quest]

good to know, thank you both for your help

[vapid warren]

my hp is just another resource as a mage

[frosty frost]

Yeah, just another bar for casting essentially

[urban quest]

not a big fan of mage tbh, i much more liked my fenris armor

excited for the next set in ashlands, wonder if theres another agile warrior armor set

[tired root]

You will love ||Ask set||. I know I do.

[urban quest]

not clicking ahaha

[frosty frost]

Imo it is more fun as melee build, but mage is safer and easier 😄

[urban quest]

trying to avoid spoilers and discover as we go

[frosty frost]

That is a good idea 😄

[narrow python]

magic is slower, too. The time required to kill mobs is longer, because your best magic suffer from enemy resistances, while others are pretty close range stuff

[barren rivet]

for warmth and comfort or for cooking? ive started putting them on the sides of my bases instead of in the middle of everything i gotta walk around

[sharp nova]

the former tbh

[narrow python]

single central hearth can warm up an efficient two-floor base, but I'd go for at least two distributed around the base, gives you some room

[sharp nova]

none of my bases are like that 🥲

[frosty frost]

Seekers are neutral to fire and resistant to blunt, to they take 75% of all dmg from fire staff, and 100% of dmg from frost staff. not to mention the aoe of fire staff can easily hit multiple enemies even on distance. In ||Ashalnds|| the most common enemies do still take 62,5% of fire staffs dmg and 100% of frost staffs dmg. And especially there the AoE shines 😄

[barren rivet]

i just snap them to the corewood around the bottom of my house and give them a little roof pointing away, you can get as fancy as you want building them a little surrounding or in case it gets windy so they stay lit, cant do pictures atm but in a few hours maybe XD

[urban quest]

spoiler territory so im gonna tab off this chat, feel free to speak of hidden things

[narrow python]

Yep, but it's still reduced. Compared to DPS of, say, mistwalker, it's low

[frosty frost]

Against single enemy or against 2-3 max, yep. Against bigger groups i would say magic would actually be faster 🙂

[narrow python]

one fireball will blow the group apart, the knockback is big.

[frosty frost]

With the ammount of enemies you might encounter in ashlands... That will just become 2 slightly smaller groups 😄

You also dont have to be in range of the enemies to kill them, so you can be calm and precisely aim where your attack will do most dmg 🙂

[narrow python]

been through ashlands already, didn't find it that big hellscape TBH. Initial landing and fortresses, maybe, but during regular wandering around, it's usually one or two enemies at once, then once you deal with them you take a few steps and again...just blast the spawners from long range and you're good

[frosty frost]

True, current ashlands are really quite calm

[narrow python]

Also, eitr runs out rather fast. From experience, on normal diff with 50 ele magic, you need four fireballs from lvl 3 staff of embers to kill no star warrior, and EEF will get you jsut that, but not much more

[barren rivet]

OR, parry thrust with a krom, do it again immediately

[narrow python]

that's why I'm saying melee kills faster

[frosty frost]

Last time i used EES 😄 worked just fine, tho i was really not focusing that much on how fast i can kill stuff

[willow raft]

@lapis terrace @sturdy folio and I want to know if I'm responsible for the drawbridge since I've spoken about it some 2 years ago in this post: #valheim-help message

[sturdy folio]

Oh how I love being pinged for non-moderation matters

literally my favourite thing

[vapid warren]

Highly doubt it since people and the devs have talked about them for 5 years. Iirc they were mainly not implemented because they would catapult players

[narrow python]

I guess that's moot point now, since we have actual catapults

[lapis terrace]

no

I asked for a drawbridge back in 2021 🤔

[willow raft]

I know. Subject tagged that post with a glass ball and from there we get to let's ask smiffe. Just some harmless banter.

[willow raft]

Finally after 5 years you got one!

[lapis terrace]

my OG world still have the blue printed version 😄

[willow raft]

You can still launch yourself in that OG world?

[lapis terrace]

yup

I got a 2020 world

[willow raft]

Yoink.

I want to be able to yeet myself as well.

[urban quest]

holy crap dude that queen fight was fun

and the dead raiser was actually super good, they tanked so much hits

[willow raft]

It is one of the more fun fights in the game yeah, with the stairs and the queen suddenly popping up somewhere.
Yeah dead raiser is very good for that fight.

[urban quest]

dude this ship is massive! me and my friend are sailing to the ashlands now

we brought a portal with us and the new shield generator thing

[spring gulch]

Good luck have fun dont die kick butts

[vapid warren]

They will die

[quick loom]

believe in them

[urban quest]

we will face whoever awaits us in the ashlands, for odin we shall destroy them

[sharp nova]

are draugr elite trophies for anything other than iron sledge and hanging up?

[faint hamlet]

hello, i'm looking to make a base in plains and a lot of the said area is uneven.

the only good building area i found is near a spawn of those little goblins. if i destroy their village do they respawn later?

[keen zodiac]

The village spawns are one time but you'll have fuling spawns in the plains no matter what

[narrow python]

Most of the village won't respawn, but one fuling usually will...
In any case, some hoe work should do for leveling it

[keen zodiac]

If you build inside a fuling camp, you should be aware you'll get constant special music, which is sometimes annoying when you are relaxing.

[faint hamlet]

Oh damn-
Hm.. this is pretty unfortunate.

I don't have a lot of plains on my map, 1st playtrough and I didnt know to check the map beforehand. All the plains are small islands with a mountain in the middle which makes them rather uneven..

Ig i'll have to check other islands. Thanks regardless.

[keen zodiac]

best of luck, hope you find what you're lookin for

[vapid warren]

No

[sharp nova]

after some grinding like i laid out before i got one. thanks ♥️

[north kindle]

can someone help me with yaguluth i literally cant solo him

ive tried so many times 😭 ive given up and went to the mistlands

[vapid warren]

What are you using(armor/weapon/food/meads)?

[faint hamlet]

i'm about to fight him mysel, got some fire resistence cause i heard i need it.

[barren rivet]

what about him is killing you?

[vagrant bobcat]

Yagluth is mainly about preparation and fast enough reaction to his abilities

[subtle parrot]

Hit him with frost and/or silver, strafe left when he calls meteors, use fire wine

[barren rivet]

right. even if you get bonked by a few meteors you can easily just kinda walk away-ish, and heal/regen. the man has no legs

[vapid warren]

I would walk 500 miles just to dodge enough abilities to hit him once

[vagrant bobcat]

safest is probably finewood/huntsman bow and hundreds of frost arrows, but quite slow too

[narrow python]

more like thousands. And several bows, because you'll break them and going back gives him time to regen

[frosty frost]

Why stop at huntsman? You get draugr fang in mountains 😄

[vagrant bobcat]

hm, we killed him on very hard and only needed 2 bows and few hundreds of arrows

[subtle parrot]

Yeh he's definitely not that hard to kill lol

[narrow python]

most of the damage will come from the frost anyway, and earlier bows are more stamina efficient

[vagrant bobcat]

because he is very resistant to pierce dmg and immune to poison, so the previous bows are better as they drain less stamina

[vapid warren]

Anyway, i have killed yagluth with a silver sword, no shield, and fenris armor. Went pretty well

[vagrant bobcat]

thats probably the fastest way, if u dont count having a lox army with u :d

[spring gulch]

Too impatient stood in fire and died

[barren rivet]

^i can stand in one more lightning cloud before my heal pot comes up again… hnnnggggghhhh!
-me every time i fight yag

[full grove]

If you make fires and workbenches they are less likely to spawn in the bubble so just place a decent amount around you build

[vital tapir]

Yeah, my last Yag fight I was like I got one more hit in me...we killed each other with that last hit.

[barren rivet]

still counts! odin is pleased!

[vital tapir]

I thought that was the disapproving stare of the all-father

[barren rivet]

hehe nope! odin is fine with mutual destruction as is confirmed in the board game

[sharp nova]

will iron sledge help versus bonemass?

[vapid warren]

I mean its fine i think

Probably second best option for weapon against him

[quick loom]

it oneshot the adds he summons during the fight

just run towards the position where its blob land, bonk the ground, done

[hollow jackal]

I am on a black marble structure in the mistlands, it is like a tower and goes down into the earth, but there is no infested mine it seems. There were 2 seekers down there. How to find the mine= Been searching forever now

[full grove]

Youll the blue lights infront of them i personally found them isolated near water

[abstract eagle]

Look for jagged mountain akin to Lion King one, and yes those are usually closest to a body of water and have some blue lights on a valve looking thing. Not all tower building even abandoned will have a mine

[vapid warren]

Some of those are mines, some of them are abandoned, some of them have dvergr. Theres also the other version that is a big straight staircase outside leading up to the entrance between three massive lion king rocks

[hollow jackal]

okay thanks guys

[quiet light]

My game crashes every time a new day starts, any tips? Tried vulkan already

Switch to DirectX. Vulkan has issues currently.

[quiet light]

But its even worse on directX

[true steeple]

are you using any mods?

[quiet light]

nope

all files verified

[tired root]

Maybe https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202549675924787220 can have advice for that.

[short pollen]

for some reason, Ancient bark spear isn't showing up at my forge. I have ancient bark, troll leather, and iron. Am I missing something? I feel like I'm going crazy.

[vapid warren]

What level is your forge?

[sharp nova]

you need all 3 bronze tier forge improvements (or any of the 6 available at iron)

or is it 2/5? idr

[vapid warren]

You need level 3 forge

[short pollen]

ah ok mine is lvl 2

[vapid warren]

So any 2 upgrades

[short pollen]

Hi, I am playing in a group of 4-5 and we have been stuck at the queen's boss fight for, I think, hours

The seekers overwhelm us constantly and we couldn't do much damage on the boss, so she revives to full all over. I am super new so please any suggestions could help. The world is at normal difficulty

Seekers spawncamping the entrance was goofy for a while but now it gets really exhausting 😭

[vapid warren]

Are you diversifying your gear? Tank, dps, mage?

[pseudo niche]

I will try to describe as best as I can but I apologize in advance if I suck at it lol
There are two in our team who I think have played before, they are tank. There is one of us who is going bow dps, but she couldn't survive really long. There is a mage, she is also new and I am not familiar with her gears. I kinda just have carapace armor, shield&spear if I can solo a seeker, and bows to keep distance otherwise

it looks like we are going for demolisher at entrance though

doesn't seem to work magically

[vapid warren]

Fire staff is really good against adds

[tired root]

AoE weapons like Demolisher/Himminafl/Bilebombs/Ember staff to deal with seekers and broods.

[vapid warren]

And mage can also give everyone shields

[compact heath]

demolisher and mistwalker are both good for it, mage for shield and staff of embers is absolutely amazing for it

Also Queen imho hardest boss in the game

[subtle parrot]

You could try flying with devcommands to go underwater, but the camera will not follow you under the water no matter how deep you can go, so it really isn't very easy but using snap points can help a bit, but the main problem is seeing what you're doing. So unless there's a mod for allowing the camera to follow you underwater there's no real good way to do it. But if you want you can ask if there are any such mods in #mods-discussion

[subtle parrot]

I gotta agree, especially solo

[pseudo niche]

what does mistwalker do?

[subtle parrot]

Spirit frost and iirc slash damage

It can also dissipate some mists when being wielded

[vapid warren]

Also swords damage isnt split among the enemies

[finite goblet]

there are numerous mods that allow you to swim down. combo that with use equipment while swimming and you are good

[tired root]

Which honestly should IMO.

[spring gulch]

I think there's a boat trick you can look up on YouTube if u dont wanna mod

I have never died to the queen but I think yagluth and the elder are the hardest 😭

[vapid warren]

Had us in the first half

[spring gulch]

Lol low food managing space of vines the elder stomp is op if you miss and the vine shots dont miss as much as other things!

[pseudo niche]

we are making progress but man 😭
what a mess, which can all be undone

is it bad if I really want to say the boss is badly made 😔

[spring gulch]

What if she said the same about you

[barren rivet]

i thought she was fun and balanced the first time i fought her.

[barren rivet]

cant 1 or 2 of you just be on permanent blood shield duty? i feel like someone has to not be pulling their weight. maybe just send in your champion to kill her without the added max hp on her

[soft notch]

She was easy once we got accustomed to her behaviour

Died once before we learned though

[marble roost]

Hmm I had a harder time with yag

Granted I did do the easy way of killing queen on my first try (magic)

[compact heath]

Yag is just grab your silver sword level 4 and go to town! don't eat meteors and the ray and you're good

I have been unable across 20 playthroughs to forego making a silver sword, I always make it lol, prettiest sword almost too.

[compact heath]

imo she is harder than Fader who kills his own adds

[soft notch]

Haven't gotten to him yet lol

[pseudo niche]

do a large amount of wolves roaming around in base contribute to lag?
I mean it is kinda a stupid question but I just want to be sure before having to do something 🥺

[soft notch]

I mean, I'm sure they don't help the lag

[barren rivet]

agree. fader was easy i thought. just dont stand in the fire, everything easily telegraphed, i fought zero spoiler, was a great boss fight

[compact heath]

yes, 200 are probably worse than 5 🙂

[marble roost]

Yeah didn't make one of those my first 3-4 playthroughs

I think my struggle was just that I was greedy, and that meant trading my health for his health

On Queen I was also greedy, but with magic I was always at range and had an unstoppable shield so it wasn't much of a tradeoff to do damage

[compact heath]

Also now we have a way to afk farm blood magic to 100 which makes mage so powerful it’s insane

[full mesa]

queen is fun

[marble roost]

Never did like afk farms, seem like a way to actively prevent yourself from playing the game to me

[soft notch]

Can a host on mac send save file to window's user to host?
And where would one find the save file on mac?

[next ivy]

My friend bought Valheim on April 15, 2021... would that qualify him for the exclusive Odin's Set DLC?

Update, he thinks he was a couple months too late

[tired root]

No, it won't.

[next ivy]

Thank you

[tired root]

Odin DLC set was exclusive only for people who attended in alpha/beta version of Valheim before EA release.

[compact heath]

Pretty sure it came out in February and Odin set is for before it released into EA, well before

I played it like beginning of Feb 2021

[vapid warren]

Or just signed up for the chance to. Either way if purchase was the first time, it was too late

[strong forge]

Unless they open cosmetic "transmogs" for gear, I can't quite find a practical sense of meaning for the kickstarter reward items.
Still would love to have them though

[jolly tapir]

I wonder if they'll have a gift for players pre 1.0 🤔 I do doubt it but it would be cool XD

[lapis terrace]

no transmog planned afaik

[lapis terrace]

um. you have the early axes. that's the gift 🫡

can't make DLC's for 14+ million players

(due to it would take 100's of years to produce that many codes, and then how can we distribute them?)

[jolly tapir]

Wasn't asking for it or assuming it was a possibility lol. I wasn't around back then so I don't know how they were even given or what it required

[inland girder]

our gift is seeing the game get built into the game it will become

[rain sundial]

is 1.0 this year?

[frosty frost]

We dont know sadly 🙂

[sharp nova]

third swamp tier health food to complement sausage and black soup? is it cooked fish?

[inland girder]

serpent stew 👍

[sharp nova]

it is cooked fish! 🙂 in a way.

[inland girder]

yep

but what do you need 3 health foods for?

trying to see how much you can tank?

or maybe try the swamp feast

[true steeple]

that used to be black forest and didn't get stat changes when it moved to swamp

[sharp nova]

golem fight, blocking, being staggered less, straight up surviving.

[inland girder]

if you want tips, the iron mace is one of the best weapons against golems

[sharp nova]

mine is tier 4 i think i'll be alright

[sharp nova]

if i drag a storm serpent back to my base and put it in my moat, will it attack most land enemies?

[thorn spire]

I think so.

[spring gulch]

I think it will aggro everything yes

[thorn spire]

@sharp nova you're going to need a big moat though.

[marble roost]

Yes, it will probably do a bad job against most enemies tho

Serpents are weak and bad at moving in small spaces

[vapid warren]

If it can reach them yes. Though i think if you encase them in iron cages they cant see anything and will be pacified

[sharp nova]

will a serpent forced out of the water for an extended period eventually suffocate in the air?

[true steeple]

no, they can stay out forever but try to move back in

[timid narwhal]

well i tryed to get that fire sword from the ashland, i already find 2 pieces, but last piece wasnt there, i ve tryed to backup save but it is not there what can i do?

[vapid warren]

You fought reto?

[timid narwhal]

who is reto?

i destroyed that purple spawner and there is a stone same as other locations before

[vapid warren]

The miniboss you have to kill for the final piece, lord reto.

[sinful moth]

at the last location there is a dungeon entrance

Inside the building, you need to destroy a part of it

[timid narwhal]

yep now i can see it... it is behing the structure where is the stone table so it is kinda hidden thanks tho

what is the best tactic against him? close fight or magic?

[vapid warren]

Same as 2 star warriors

[true steeple]

if you have jade it can be very powerful since there's no other enemies in there

[true steeple]

2-star warriors don't have nearly as much health though, and their damage is lower

[timid narwhal]

i hate 2 star... even ashland i hate that biome 😄

where can i craft that jade weapon?

[true steeple]

jade is one of the three gemstones from fortresses. you can make jade weapons with a flametal weapon and jade

[timid narwhal]

so you mean flamental mace and than that 3 gemstones...

[timid narwhal]

found the recipe for it thanks for help anyway

[vapid warren]

Well yes, but the result can be very similar lol

[true steeple]

against a starred warrior I use sword secondary behind its back a few times, that would take forever with reto compared to jade + berserkir axes

[thorn spire]

anyone recall how often tames need to eat?

[tired root]

Evasion mantle + Fader power for parrying the attacks.

[full mesa]

iirc 10minutes and they go hungy again :)

so maximum of 3 food to tame a animal

[marble roost]

I'd say minimum of 3 without animal whispers potion. If they get interrupted during taming for even a second you'll need 4

[sharp nova]

do dverger wall lanterns ever go out?

[tiny path]

how do i find iron?

[vapid warren]

Have you killed the elder?

[tiny path]

yes

[vapid warren]

Use the key on buildings in the swamp

[tiny path]

i havent found any biome other than meadows black forest and mountains

[sinful moth]

Maybe try sailing more

[tiny path]

big ass snake keeps blowing me up

[vapid warren]

Look for big dead trees

[thorn spire]

Try coasting until you're more familiar with the serpent. (sail close to shore)

[barren rivet]

you can kill it with 0 bow skill and flint arrows before it breaks your karve

[marble roost]

I’m imagining a big snake swimming up to your boat, opening it’s mouth, and firing a huge bomb or missile at you 😂

[stoic trench]

Ocean boss be like 😂

[marble roost]

Nah nah this is just the minions. The boss fires atomic bombs and has pinpoint accurate lasers

[urban flare]

is a spear better than an axe against a wolf?

[narrow python]

||Bonemaw....||

[tiny path]

ohh there are more boats other than the raft

[tired root]

Both can deal well with them.

[vapid warren]

Craft bronze nails

[sharp nova]

high priority silver items?

already have wolf cape

and butcher table

[narrow python]

depends, if you're fond of heavy armor, that would be a priority

[sharp nova]

does any of the wolf set provide frost resist other than the cape?

[vapid warren]

Frostner is one of the best weapons im the game

[vapid warren]

Chest piece

[sharp nova]

i'm gonna craft the silver shield

[narrow python]

yeah, but in mountains it's only useful in caves, that can wait a bit

[sharp nova]

is there only one silver shield?

[narrow python]

yep

[sharp nova]

heq

it's good, right?

[narrow python]

yep

[vapid warren]

I like the silver sword and 2h axe

[terse cedar]

should chicken coop be round or square

[true steeple]

it can parry better than the iron buckler

[vapid warren]

Only difference it would make is that if theres no corners you can push them off the eggs easier

[tiny path]

draugrs can swim???

[terse cedar]

do I make my chicken coop 10x10 or the size of a football stadium with one little 1x1 unroofed extension so that I can call them "free range" ?

[true steeple]

if its free range they could be eaten in a bat raid

[sharp nova]

they walk at the floor of the water

[unborn flame]

will boats drift away if im not on it

[vapid warren]

No

[sharp nova]

somehow, no.

[vapid warren]

They will only move if you are on thrm, if mobs push them, or waves causes them to knock into obnects above or below

[sharp nova]

boats only bob up and down during storms. the biggest risks are that said bobbing will damage it or creatures will attack it until it breaks

[unborn flame]

ok thanks

[frozen oyster]

is there any meads or ways to get better stamina regen other than the lingering stamina potion? i am currently in plains

[odd dome]

Is there still plans for the game to get the Steam workshop?

probably just on 1.0 right?

[drowsy crane]

Steam workshop was never mentioned

[true steeple]

bear and vilebone armor increase stamina regen

[frosty frost]

Tasty mead 🙂

[frozen oyster]

but doesnt it only last 10 seconds?

[true steeple]

10 seconds can be long enough

[frosty frost]

Yep

[frozen oyster]

well the reason i ask is because when i go on long tree chopping hauls it gets tedious having to stand there to regen the stamina to chop the tree

but i think im gonna try to make the vilebone armor :D

[true steeple]

vile trophies are so rare

[frozen oyster]

oh i also wanted to ask, when something says "reduces base item stamina usage" what are the "base items"

[true steeple]

building items

[frosty frost]

Stuff like hammer, hoe, cultivator 🙂

[frozen oyster]

i see, thank you

[random sluice]

5 percent isnt it?

[true steeple]

10% but viles arent always easy to find

[random sluice]

yeh im relatively new to the game however i found one and immediately died to a deathsquitto

[frosty frost]

Usual welcome party when you get to plains 😄

[random sluice]

yeh and the fulings chase me aswell

very scary

[true steeple]

viles only spawn at night, if you're new to plains it will be safer at day

[tired root]

Viles are very cool tho.

[fickle axle]

guys idk if this is the right channel but im having a problem with epic loot mod 🙁 i cant see any changes after changing balance template config to legendary or minimal does anyone know why? (i found the mod discussion channel after my bad)

[dreamy hearth]

There's also #mods-issues as well.

[terse cedar]

thinking about doing mistlands without cheesing the dvergr this time but kinda scared

[tired root]

Battleaxes.

[terse cedar]

why battleaxes?

[cursive drum]

Ok, so I finally unlocked portals, but was dismayed to find that I cannot bring ore. You know, the heaviest stuff on the planet. What's the strategy there? A cart? I can't even think now.

[terse cedar]

for moving ore? ships bro

and build your smelters and all near your docks at your base

[cursive drum]

Oh, hm. Ok. I haven't built ships yet.

And the nice base I've been building is landlocked. Oops.

[barren rivet]

because they can cleave for full damage to multiple dverger and stagger them til theyre dead. they wont know what hit them.

[terse cedar]

cart in the meantime, but yea u def want to be on the water

[shrewd ravine]

hey did someone know an update mod for share map and ping auto in coop ?

[barren rivet]

depends on your island’s structure, might make sense to use a boat or not to bring home. you could build a base IN the black forest to smelt and craft, you could boat/cart ore home, up to you

[terse cedar]

atgeir isnt better for that?

[barren rivet]

imo battleaxe is better, atgeir staggers but spreads them out, and only alt attack is aoe and does little damage

battleaxe does full monster damage and has +50% stagger on basic attacks

and it dossnt have a penalty if you hit the walls of the tower it just always says yessir me chop

tho both could work if you’re good with atgier, might have to secondary attack, stab stab secondary again to re-stagger, stab stab. but battle axe is one glorious 3 hit combo all things are dead

[cursive drum]

Thanks for the tips.

Hey, do greydwarf nests respawn? I finally took one out.

[stoic trench]

Nope, they do not!

[cursive drum]

🎉

[dreamy hearth]

You don't even have to take them out, just block them from spawning anything.

[cursive drum]

Now that I've unlocked bronze, should I rush making new bronze armour and replace my leathers? I have a nice bronze axe.

[full mesa]

I'd go with tools/weapons first

You have 3 options for new armor in BF

[barren rivet]

ONLY if you dont see yourself ever killing trolls or bears in the near future, they drop armor materials barely less armor than bronze

[cursive drum]

Bears and trolls are pounding me pretty hard currently. I'm avoiding.

[full mesa]

Would troll armor be considered as medium set now? 🤔

[barren rivet]

hm maybe u need bronze armor just to fight them then, not ideal for bronze usage but for a brand new player gotta dowhat u gotta do

[full mesa]

Since we have bear armor

[cursive drum]

I have bare armour when I corpse run. >_>

[barren rivet]

too complicated just light and heavy

[barren rivet]

nah u need the blueberry paint, that's what gives it the toughness

[cursive drum]

Can I still sneak in bronze?

[full mesa]

Go with whatever floats your boat

[cursive drum]

No woad? I wanted to be a woad warrior. >_>

[barren rivet]

sneak is not dependent on armor or anything. and sneak skill only reduces stam usage a little troll isnt that special

[cursive drum]

Cool. Thanks.

[full mesa]

lox pelt like armor when

[barren rivet]

ugh god. can you imagine how HOT that armor is???

oh! just figured out new DN armor set

DN ore plus lox pelt

[full mesa]

Hot as in... beauty or hot hot temperature 🫠

[barren rivet]

NOT beauty... you'd look like a... idk what. a brown shaggy poof with feet

[full mesa]

fair enough

[terse cedar]

which should I do first: infested mine or dvergr pois?

[stoic trench]

Kinda just depends what you find first, but I’d probably start with Dvergr outposts

[trim epoch]

does anyone know how i use the NoWearAndTear i have it downloaded and loaded up on r2modman

[soft notch]

Might wanna try #mods-discussion or #mods-issues

[gleaming ocean]

get Speedy for speedhack on Valheim

Can I see my chat history in a server I joined after I exit the server?
Like I am hoping if the chat session history I was in was stored locally somewhere on my PC? If that's a thing

[tired root]

Gather mages in one place and swing 2 times and they're dead. 3 if there is 1 star one.
1st swing staggers the non starred mages and second swing kills them. Rogues are easy to deal with since they only either shoot or hit. Mages can be much more dangerous.

[tropic bramble]

@sturdy folio @lyric grove

any online

[sturdy folio]

What's up?

Nvm, I know what's up.

[tropic bramble]

can u check dms

I don't respond to random dms/message requests. Please adhere to the rules of this discord. #rules-and-info

[tropic bramble]

[next ivy]

does water rising break plains crops? Like during a storm at a coastal farm-base?

[tired root]

Should not.

[analog valve]

I haven't been able to find any chat logs. The game doesn't seem to keep logs at all, unless you make it with BepInEx or a mod.

[frozen oyster]

i made the root harnesk to help with the mosquitos in the plains but was wondering if the higher armor on the padded cuirass is better than the low armor + pierce resistance of the root harnesk

[turbid moat]

Hey all, does anyone know if progress gonna be wiped with the 1.0 release? I readed that should be this year, and just bought the game, but if it gonna be wiped on 1.0 release, i rather wait to play

[vapid warren]

no, at worst the area you have explored will not generate new stuff

[vapid warren]

root harnesk is one of the best defensive pieces in the game

[frozen oyster]

even with the low armor rating?

[vapid warren]

percentage resistance does more and more the higher the damage is

[frozen oyster]

i see, is pierce damage prevalent enough though for it to be worth it?

[soft notch]

It’s fairly common plains and onward

[tired root]

Total wipeout of worlds will not happen, older worlds are compatible with new updates and any new content will be generated in unexplored areas.

[turbid moat]

Oke cool thanks guys!

[marble pagoda]

yea root harnesk is the second best armor piece in the game
first being feather cape

[pseudo niche]

noob question, what should I do to reduce the charging time for bows?
How much does it matter that I try to hold until it finishes charging, or am I better off firing after a certain point?

wait feather cape? Why is that?

[thorn spire]

You get better damage and lower spread if you fully charge the shot. Only xp gain will reduce charging time.

[thorn spire]

Don’t want to spoil it for you.

[pseudo niche]

well I already made it, I guess I don't quite understand why

[inland girder]

the yellow circle shows your spread

[pseudo niche]

Made it a bit too late though, I realize it was a bit dumb to wear the cape in assland lol

[inland girder]

and the only way to reduce charging time is by leveling bow skill

[pseudo niche]

awww

[inland girder]

feather cape is amazing because it gives you slowfalling

which is extremely useful in biomes like mistlands and mountains

and a huge help overall

[pseudo niche]

for boosting bow skills, I have learned that there is the root armor set bonus and wolf sight. Are there more items which add it? Is there a quick method to raise the skill level maybe?

I also realize very late that I didn't make use of wolf sight at all because my adrenaline never reaches so high as I try to charge the bow to shoot and then run around. So I'm doing something wrong there 😭
What should I do to make use of it best

[sharp nova]

where does wolf cape fall, then?

[inland girder]

wolf sight?

[inland girder]

as good as every other warm bonus cape

except it looks siiiick

[pseudo niche]

uh I might have gotten the name wrong

[thorn spire]

No, that's right.

[sharp nova]

i thought it was the only warm bonus cape

[pseudo niche]

oh okay

[thorn spire]

No, pretty much every chest piece and cape post mountains has warm bonus.

maybe not linen cape.

[sharp nova]

ah. thanks rudemann

[inland girder]

lox and feather cape also give the warm bonus, not sure about ash cape

[inland girder]

not chest piece

[thorn spire]

Sorry you're right.

[thorn spire]

According to the wiki, yes. ask and ashen, too.

[tired root]

Both Wolf armor chest and Fenris chest grant frost resistance, plus all other capes beginning from wolf cape except linen.

[inland girder]

even the asksvin cape?

oh cool

[sharp nova]

is drake helm a worthy investment?

dat 20 armor... mmm...

[marble roost]

I like to get beefy upgraded helmets because they don't have movement penalties, and then I can play around with some lighter armor for my chest/legs

[tired root]

If you like heavy armor then yes. Plus it looks cool.

[sharp nova]

does full wolf/drake have any set bonuses

[tired root]

Heavy armor sets don't have set bonuses, but they have higher armor rate.

Wolf chest alone grants frost resistance tho.

[sharp nova]

i think i'm going to prioritize fenris armor once i start getting their fur

hoping that each piece grants a small speed bonus

[tired root]

Each Fenris armor piece grant +3% ms, so full armor have total +9% ms.

[sharp nova]

i'm gonna go drake fenris fenris wolf cape

wait i don't need wolf cape nvm

i remeber

[tired root]

One can mix fenris and wolf armor pieces to get slightly more armor and less ms penalty.

[vapid warren]

Helms dont reduce movement

[sharp nova]

that's why i gonna run it

[barren rivet]

heavy armor grants “bet i can hurt you harder than you hurt me”

[sharp nova]

how many eggs to summon moder?

nvm its 3

[vapid warren]

One for each slot ye

[tired root]

You think you can hurt me?
-# ||You can.||

[barren rivet]

hehe, i did a quote yesterday “im not locked in here with you” cuz i closed the door on a greydwarf that came in my house and tried to run out

[sharp nova]

health food to complement wolf skewer during mountains?

[tired root]

Sausages fare well still. Serpent stew for boss fight.

[sharp nova]

darn

how unmeta is it to run wolf skewer wolf jerky feast?

[tired root]

Jerky fits better for building or else tasks IMO, it has slightly worse stats than earliest feasts.

[sharp nova]

yes but rather than run 2 health foods and eye scream do i get slightly less stats with higher hp gain with jerky skewer and feast?

it seems a bit like cooked dear boar jerky mushroom

[tired root]

At least less stamina with those 3.

There is food sheet pinned in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202177337328934973

[vapid warren]

Sausages are cheap and good

[sharp nova]

wolf jerky is cheap and... much worse...

[limpid stone]

Idk about wolf skewers, needs too many mushrooms

[sharp nova]

wolf jerky smallfeast skewer gets me 166 HP/139 S whereas the most optimal HHS gets me 166/154

sacrificing 15 stamina for more hp regen

not bad...

[barren rivet]

ya skewers are mushroom monsters, gotta save those mushrooms for serpent stew, i rarely eat skewers

sausages are so easy to pump out, 2nd hp food could be fish, even cooked wolf isnt bad also very plentifuk

[sharp nova]

i'm mushroom farming monster i have so many mushrooms

[limpid stone]

Serpent stew, sausages, onion soup are normally what I eat until plains, 155/104

[vapid warren]

You should be marking any mushrooms you come across though

[limpid stone]

Maybe even cooked serpent meat too if I have way too much

[vapid warren]

Yeesh, wasting serpent stew outside bossfights

[vapid warren]

What the

[sharp nova]

i went serpent stew cooked serpent onion soup for my first golem fights, i don't regret it, it made it much easier

[limpid stone]

The boss fights aren’t what’s scary, it’s dying to wolves on the mountain

[sharp nova]

hmmm

with sausage and another good health food and upgraded armor you should be okay

i havent died to a wolf with those in a very long time

[vapid warren]

I actually skipped bonemass on my main world so i wouldnt get drake and wolf raids since my goal was to farm stone in the mountains. I passively found enough silver to max all my gear

[sharp nova]

might do this myself

[sharp nova]

what are the post moder raiders?

[vapid warren]

No permanent ones, only one that goes away after you kill yag

[vale condor]

Hi, I’m new to Valheim. I have wood but I can’t craft arrows in my inventory. Why don’t I see the recipe?

[frosty frost]

Make a hammer and workbench 🙂

i have them 🙁

[vale condor]

it was there but I didn’t notice it—the icon was very transparent compared to the others :)) thanks!

[frosty frost]

@hot widget #screenshots message sadly iirc you cant remove vegvisirs even with commands

[hot widget]

oh, yeah?

[sharp nova]

yes but is the pre yaglith raider

[vapid warren]

Black metal and fuling totem delivery service

[sharp nova]

#u#

[frosty frost]

I am certain that the runestones cant be removed, and i do believe the vegvisirs fall under the same category... So sadly it will stay there.

[vapid warren]

Yeah

[sharp nova]

are there any post yagluth raiders?

[vapid warren]

Theres one post every boss but fader

[sharp nova]

do raids stop after fader?

[vapid warren]

Only the one you get from queen. All other raids are permanent

You can check the different ones on the "events" page on the wiki and what enables them

[frosty frost]

https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Events
-# That is here, for convenience

[sharp nova]

OHHH i thought you were saying raids stopped altogether

you got me excited 😮‍💨

[tired root]

There are boss related raids for each boss which get disabled after said boss is defeated and will unlock the next boss raid.

[vapid warren]

Nah. Each boss has "army"raids leading up to them that stop coming after you kill them(queen has 2), but the rest stay forever

[tired root]

Same but different words.

[frosty frost]

One of the queen raids is only in mistlands tho 😄 so if you dont have base there you only have to worry about one

[vapid warren]

Yeah

Oh fader has two as well

[sharp nova]

so there's a fuling raid that stays forever after moder, is there a less permant one?

[vapid warren]

Most raids have zone requirements anyway

[vapid warren]

Nope

[sharp nova]

ok.

and then after yagluth there's two more raids, only one of which is permanent?

[vapid warren]

Oh wait

[frosty frost]

The fuling raid gets disabled after you kill plains boss.

[vapid warren]

Theres the sealed tower raid

Comes with miniboss, fulings and berserkers

[frosty frost]

The sealed tower one is forever tho, yep

[marble roost]

Moder activates a fuling raid, yag disbales it

But if you kill the Hildr's plains boss, it triggers a stronger **permanent ** fuling raid

[sharp nova]

wow

[marble roost]

I like the hildr fuling raid

[sharp nova]

blackmetal 4ever 😤

[frosty frost]

They were bros, man. 🥲

[marble roost]

They were, but not anymore

[sharp nova]

one of them will become died 🫠

[sharp nova]

the mistland raid is after the queen is defeated, right?

[frosty frost]

Before

[sharp nova]

oh

[iron talon]

I'm using dathost servers to a dedicated server on Valheim. Is there anyway to make the ones using it not have to write password anymore?

[marble roost]

All the raids is always the NEXT boss sending their enemies after you to stop you from going over and chopping their heads off. When you kill Yag, queen knows she's next. And she's sending everything she can at you to stop you

[frosty frost]

Look at it as the new biomes enemies get alerted about your existence and want to kill you when you kill the boss from previous biome.

[spring gulch]

She gotta send more ngl that raid so ez fr fr

[frosty frost]

Iirc there are some mods for that. No vanilla way i am aware of.

[sharp nova]

don't tell me what they are except whether or not they can fly

[marble roost]

I won't even tell you that 😄

[sharp nova]

god dambit

🥽

i'll be ready

[marble roost]

That's what they all say

They are all WRONG

[sharp nova]

how many queen tier raids... are there? 1, or 2?

[marble roost]

2

One of them only happens at mistlands bases

[terse cedar]

Kinda miss raids. Had them turned off for so long. Building nice shit is too difficult to have it destroyed every time you blink tho

[clever lagoon]

how does one get flametale ?

[frosty frost]

You need to venture to the lava lakes in ashlands 🙂 or you can find some pieces in dverger outposts there

Also ashlands dungeons can have it in chests

[clever lagoon]

im in ashlands idk where to go tho..

so much lava

[frosty frost]

Try to go inland 🙂

[clever lagoon]

wym?

[frosty frost]

Away from shore? More to the middle of landmass?

[clever lagoon]

ok sorry im a little slow

[frosty frost]

Its totally possible i might be explaining it wrongly 😄 english is not my first language

[clever lagoon]

ur all good

i heard im supposed to get it from top n move down?

[compact iris]

is it a good idea to move ur base when progressing

[frosty frost]

Look for pointy "towers" covered in shiny stuff in lava lakes 🙂

[clever lagoon]

or is that wrong?

[frosty frost]

I do it that way, works fine 🙂

[frosty frost]

Not good nor bad idea 😄 Its basically matter of what scenery you like the most and how annoying you find possible enemy attacks

[clever lagoon]

i have mine passive bc im just trying to chill

[compact iris]

i move somewhere close to mountains and plains when i beat bonemass

and ,m stuck in mistlands

[frosty frost]

What are you stuck on?

[clever lagoon]

wym stuck?

[compact iris]

i keep dying and cant grind

[clever lagoon]

hmm

[compact iris]

enemies are so strong

[frosty frost]

What gear and food you have?

[clever lagoon]

anyone able to help me with queen i have her loaction found n the thing to summon her..

[vapid warren]

If you do it opposite itll be difficult to reach

[clever lagoon]

ah ok ty

[terse cedar]

On this playthrough, I just had a simple meadows setup to get started. Then I built a swamp treehouse and my final base is in plains which is my fav zone. The advantage of plains is that you can grow all the previous biome crops there. But I agree with the asatru that the biome with the scenery u like the best is prob the biggest deciding factor

[compact iris]

vile armor and claws lox meat pie blood pudding and forgot the other one

[frosty frost]

I do like me my cozy madows bases 😄 I do make farming outpost in plains every playthrough tho.

[compact iris]

i guess it was serpent stew

[frosty frost]

Ah, then it may be the set effect that makes it harder for you, since it will make you slightly weak to incoming physical dmg.

[terse cedar]

root chest

[frosty frost]

That could help, seekers dmg is mostly pierce

[terse cedar]

going from weak to resistant should be a big improvement

[clever lagoon]

^?

[frosty frost]

Yep, tho they will loose the benefits of the set effect too.
-# And from slightly weak technically 🤓 but still a big improvement non the less

[terse cedar]

You guys prefer a big(ish) mistlands landmass or island hopping?

[frosty frost]

Bigger landmasses

[terse cedar]

first landing at dvergr harbor?

[sharp nova]

wait... are troll raids never disabled?

will trolls keep raiding me forever?

[frosty frost]

Yep

[sharp nova]

you don't know how actually happy i am

i have a plan
😈

[spring gulch]

Troll moat

[upper flax]

Troll effigy

[spring gulch]

Wait raid mobs despawn

[sharp nova]

not trolls

[frosty frost]

Those too despawn if raid spawned them 🤔

[sharp nova]

OH they despawn when the raid ends but even another raid won't stop theirs, right?

[vapid warren]

I have 3 trolls trapped in my base lol

Non raid trolls

[frosty frost]

Raid can start even if one is previously left active in some distant area if you mean that 🤔

[sharp nova]

i got some mixed messages i'll attack this fish cake later 🍥

thanks smiffe

(for those wondering i turned off ping)

[spring gulch]

Isn't the emoji you used called a Naruto or am I totally wrong

[sharp nova]

i'm not into this culture i'm afraid

i just found that emoji looking for 🍰

🍰 is a good emoji for being really content and satisfied

[spring gulch]

Its delightful, like a piece of cake

[upper flax]

What about a slice of pie

[spring gulch]

Ohhho the rock LOVES pie 😏

[vapid warren]

Btw, this is a hdlp channel so for valheim chatter there's #valheim-chat

[sharp nova]

for those who use mushrooms conservatively during mountains, what do you eat when not wolf skewer and serpent stew?

[marble roost]

sausages

maybe swamp feast

[sharp nova]

dare i say

no i won't nvm

[sharp nova]

is it okay if i dm you?

[marble roost]

Sure

[boreal cape]

Heyo, so I'm having some trouble with a build and dont know what I'm doing wrong. Anyone able to assist?

In a VC, preferably so I can stream it.

[sterile jay]

i can help you if you still need it

im in the Meadows vc rn

[inland girder]

what trinket can you craft with shaman trophy?

[frosty frost]

Heart of the forest iirc

[inland girder]

oh right

[sharp nova]

is there a limit to the number of feasts i can consume in quick succession

[pseudo niche]

I upended my cart, is there anything I can do to turn it around? Lol
ah I can't send pictures

[sharp nova]

run against it and jump

[pseudo niche]

okay

this is so tricky 😭

[sharp nova]

it takes some time finnicking and getting used to yeah

good luck

[finite goblet]

Welcome to valheim

[random sluice]

i hate the carts they are so angering to move about

[pseudo niche]

I have a scythe on me but I can't repair it at a forge
Is it because I haven't unlocked the recipe to craft it, or is it something else I am doing wrong

[spring gulch]

No cart hate will be tolerated

[spring gulch]

I dont use it tbh but did u try the workbench

[vapid warren]

Level 2 forge needed

I dunno if you need to learn a recipe to repair it

[pseudo niche]

ah makes sense, I will try
edit: yeah that was it, thanks

[vapid warren]

Forge level 2 or needing to learn it?

[pseudo niche]

forge level 2, I don't have to learn it

[vapid warren]

Nice

[finite goblet]

My strat is dont use them

[random sluice]

lol best idea XD

[zealous nova]

New player here, is there an easy way of getting the cores? tia

[spring gulch]

upgraded club and wood shield

and leather armor

[zealous nova]

Yeah the skelly's hurt xD

[icy brook]

No

You could eat 3

[sharp nova]

is that ever a good idea

[terse cedar]

do ||them flyin thangs|| still exist in mistlands? Haven't seen any and I been here a while

[barren rivet]

keep in mind in the dungeons when you hit walls/doors/whatever it splits your damage, same goes for enemies. if you find yourself flailing a club in a hallway doing little damage thats why. best thing for crypts is either bear paws or flint axe secondary attack which does full damage in front of you. or lure skeletons to an open space if possible

[zealous nova]

tysm 🙂

[inland girder]

iron buckler or banded shield?

[vapid warren]

depends how good you are with parrying

[inland girder]

buckler it is

[barren rivet]

banded shield for style points XD

[urban granite]

When the next big updates come out, is it better to start a new world? Currently have a world where I’m in swamp and stopped so i wouldn’t discover too much before the coming changes.

[clever juniper]

you should be fine, I just wouldn't explore or build the far north of the map

[vapid warren]

i have the same world i've had since early 2021

as long as you dont go too far north you'll be fine

[urban granite]

Ok, I was wondering as I heard some trinkets or something were added and with the bears I was wondering if more would be added to lower level biomes so better to restart. Anyways thanks

[vapid warren]

who knows it might be, but you dont need to start over again just cause something else was added earlier

[thorn spire]

anyone know a way to block skeleton spawns?

from the bone pile I mean.

[spring gulch]

Sorry what do you mean?

[thorn spire]

I'm wondering if there's a way to stop spawns from the skeleton spawner, like you can with the greydwarf nest (roof over it)

[spring gulch]

Ohh ok thank you. Did you try the roof? I wanna know too

[echo garden]

if you have a pair of animals, one that is 1-star, and the other 0 star, can it breed 1 star babies?

[pseudo niche]

I am not the breeding expert but I have seen my friend achieved this with wolves in our current world
Might need to ask them again to be sure though

[clever juniper]

Yes, it will be a 50% chance of being a 1 star or no star baby

[clever juniper]

Temporarily you can dig a ditch and harpoon the spawned skellis into the ditch, then no more will spawn until they die

[terse cedar]

man the crafting side of things gets so much more convoluted when u get into mistlands

[sharp nova]

silver shield or serpent scale tower shield for tanking irrespective of poison?

[thorn spire]

thanks, that's not a bad idea. I can then put flooring over it so I don't fall in myself.

[sharp nova]

skeleprison

[thorn spire]

"Go to your room!"

[sharp nova]

which external tool do you use to find early axehead locations in a world with a given seed? that's what i'd like to do next run

[thorn spire]

I've never used one, but I would guess that one of the mapping tools would identify POIs like the ruined buildings you need to find those axe heads. I don't think you can get more accurate than that because the building type and whether there's a chest in it is RNG.

[sharp nova]

https://valheim-map.world/

this doesnt seem to display early axehead locations

[spring gulch]

Silver if you parry serpent if you want to not die and also use the root harnesk

[spring gulch]

There MIGHT be a toggle option for it on the left, but you probably saw those

[tired root]

Not exactly show the axe heads, but you can look up for the POIs they can be found in.
They have certain chance to spawn inside the chests.

[sharp nova]

so other structures, meadows?

[tired root]

Wooden house types ||2|| and ||6||, to be precise.

Other doesn't always have chest but other does.

[sharp nova]

thanks

[gentle orchid]

hello guys im new to valheim and i want to know everything about trolls but idk like when they spawn how to kill them fast ect, if someone can explain to me please tyyy

[sharp nova]

upgrade a bronze atgeir and use the secondary in carefully timed intervals to stunlock them

[subtle parrot]

You can find that stuff on the wiki, but they're weak to pierce and have a weak point in their head, so arrows or spears. They spawn randomly in the black forest, and near their caves.

[finite goblet]

if you time it well, you can tumble out of all their attacks and stabby stab them in between rols

[sharp nova]

copper knife works well for this this is what i did with mixed success before atgeir ☝️

[finite goblet]

copper knife my goat

[sharp nova]

[finite goblet]

i can dodge roll trolls no problem. moment i fight a regular seeker i am mega cooked

although i guess given im on the internet, dodging trolls is a more useful skill

[barren rivet]

trolls are the game's dodge roll and parry tutorial. might as well learn now, there are worse things to dodge and parry later. they're weak to spears and bows.

[vapid warren]

[tired root]

Bears would fit too for the combat training tutorial mob. 👀

[spring gulch]

Aww yeah I have a screenshot of it doing half their hp on a sneak!

[tired root]

They are very rare randomly spawned, but they can also spawn once near the entrance and interior area of troll caves.
There are 2 variations of trolls: one with log and other barehanded. Log troll has bigger AoE and reach for its attacks but barehanded has one very dangerous attack which looks like Hulk smash.
They're weak to pierce, so bows, spears, atgeirs and knives are more effective against them.

[rustic linden]

is it better to go iron buckler or iron tower shield?

[sharp nova]

if you're wondering you should use banded shield

it does both decently

[abstract kestrel]

Heyy so I'm new to the game
is there any way i can change rotate key to smth else other than moue scroll button??

[rustic linden]

wdym both?

[sharp nova]

buckler is for parrying, tower is for straight up blocking, banded shield is in the middle

[rustic linden]

ah alright thanks

[abstract kestrel]

hey can you help me with building controls

[sharp nova]

yes go into your keybinds

[abstract kestrel]

yeah but i dont see any option

[sharp nova]

maybe not then

[abstract kestrel]

does it have a diff name in keybinds??

[abstract kestrel]

do you use mouse scroll to rotate

[vapid warren]

changing controls in valheim is rather lacking

[sharp nova]

try looking for scroll control of a function, or use a controller

[abstract kestrel]

yeah dudee can't change alot of keybinds

[sharp nova]

if you're using kbm you can change most of them

if you're using controller you're a bit outta luck

but you do get to choose which set of controller controls are used

[abstract kestrel]

I'll buy a new mouse then xD
my scroll just stopped working

[sharp nova]

if you're on a laptop you can also use two fingers on the touchpad

[abstract kestrel]

PC :(

[vapid warren]

even with some controls you can change it actually sometimes bugs out your game

[sharp nova]

if you can't use scrollwheel on desktop pc you probably need a new mouse for more than just valheim

[abstract kestrel]

yeahhh that too

[sharp nova]

especially if you play a lot of games scrollwheel is very helpful

[abstract kestrel]

it got fked a few days ago

[sharp nova]

go away scammer

[sharp nova]

he's gone thank goodness.

iron sledge can't be used for prospecting silver anymore, but will frostner work?

[vapid warren]

iron sledge will, but frostner wont

[sharp nova]

i havent tried iron sledge yet but a video description was updated to say they patched out iron sledge but not stagbreaker

[vapid warren]

they do the same thing

[sharp nova]

hmm

why won't frostner work?

[spring gulch]

It doesnt slam da ground

[sharp nova]

is its aoe only cold?

[spring gulch]

Prospect silver with frostner secondary when

[vapid warren]

frostner bonk the foes, sledge bonk the ground, silver is in ground

[sharp nova]

i thought frostner was a 2 handed hammer 🫠

[vapid warren]

nope

[sharp nova]

oops

at least this'll beat iron mace versus bonemass

[next ivy]

1 handed clubs function differently than 2 handed ones. 🙂

[next ivy]

Oh, I see!

[robust iris]

not sure if anyone can help but my friend is having issues loading the game through r2modman after installing mods. it brings up a unity window then just closes the game.

[willow raft]

That means some mod is doing something wrong.
Turn off all the mods and turn on one by one till it crashs again and the last one you turned on is your culprit.
#mods-issues Can help you further if that doesn't help.

[ripe flint]

Hello how are you? I'm speaking for the translator.
I am passing Valheim without a map for the future when the last biome comes out, I will pass it without a map, without portals and high difficulty.
Can someone here give me advice on playing without a map? I'm having a hard time finding the swamp boss.

[tired root]

If you try iron sledge to find silver nodes underground it will show "0" when you hit it instead of "too hard" which shows when you try finding them with Stagbreaker.

[sharp nova]

what does it mean when stagbreaker shows "0"?

(hence the issue. that's probably not silver 🤭)

[tired root]

It's anything else than silver. Rock boulders, trees, and else it cannot damage.
Note that it shows "too hard" message for obsidian nodes too.

[sharp nova]

so iron sledge will show "too hard" "0" on that stuff in addition?

[tired root]

Yeah, iron sledge shows "0" to everything, including silver and obsidian nodes.

[sharp nova]

darn

thanks for the heads up

[sharp nova]

is the iron sledge aoe bigger so silver will show as "0" further away than it'd show as "too hard" with stagbreaker?

[trim epoch]

can u still do that thing where u place carts above the boats and break them so u can transport more loot in the boxes

[long kestrel]

I have a "new" Been playing on a broken down lappy with an aux screen and keyboard. Finally gonna play on a real setup ... nope... Installed everything everything looks normal but when i log in the map/world seems virgin even though it say's it's Gulth. I'm feeling sad and not playing my favorite game for two weeks. HALP!~?

[rigid dagger]

I new how and what do.

[trim python]

Yo whats like the best weapon to use at the black forest stage

[thorn spire]

I would say upgraded club, but I’m partial to them. Atgeir and spear are nice for trolls

[trim python]

Appreciate you sir

[spring gulch]

If I add a wood wall on top of the vines that grow on the abandoned houses in the meadows, will the vines grow on the wall?

[somber mantle]

is raised ground still the best base defense?

[drowsy crane]

Best base defense is learning how to fight enemies & utilize base defense items.

Sheltering from enemies will only leave you with less combat experience and slower reaction times to enemies that can get by raised ground.

[spring gulch]

yeah just turn off raids if you dont want to fight them dont make a icky wall

[somber mantle]

im 350 hrs in on/off from Patch 1 im good

I dont wanna be fighting a mob in my kitchen

[somber mantle]

it's loot

[analog valve]

I like the icky wall to stop them from breaking my builds. I still run outside the wall and fight them like an idiot.

[drowsy crane]

I've never had that happen in 2000 hours of gameplay.

[analog valve]

I have had a raid at a small outpost I made where it started when I was afk, they broke my door down and proceeded to spawn camp me inside.

[somber mantle]

ye that's what I do

[drowsy crane]

AFKing in an area that can be raided is a big no no in Valheim. 😅

[analog valve]

Was afk to get a drink. Not a mob farm or anything like that. It was rather bad timing lol.

[drowsy crane]

Ah, so lesson learned! No need to react with terrain walls that break enemy pathing.

[analog valve]

Well, like I said, I go out and fight anyways, so they path to me just fine. I don't want a troll putting a log through something I spent hours building.

[drowsy crane]

Build a wall with a large amount of space between structures and the wall.

[analog valve]

I only just learnt how to build the ground wall and make it look ok. Why should I not do it again?

[drowsy crane]

Sheltering from enemies will only leave you with less combat experience and slower reaction times to enemies that can get by raised ground.

[analog valve]

Ok, how does that apply to what I've been saying? Isn't my situation different?

[somber mantle]

I mean

does the combat you go through to progress the game not teach you enough? Or is it an environment thing where you learn more near your base

[drowsy crane]

What you're describing is the same scenario I encounter, though I don't need to utilize terrain walls, and it's likely you don't either.

[analog valve]

If you don't have terrain walls and you get a Troll raid, are your builds in danger?

Anyways, the question I was here to ask is: if I reset the World Keys on a dedicated server, does that set the world back to Meadows level for all players, which from my understanding just means no high level bad guys in the Meadows at night? Is there any hidden issues if I do that?

[drowsy crane]

Not at all, they head for the gate, and never make it before I meet them head on. If they did make it, my walls are spaced so nothing but the walls/gate is attacked, at which point a ward would show me where they are so I can respond.

I also have ballistas set up, tamed wolves circling my base in a fenced in area, and spike walls against my exterior.

[analog valve]

Dude, you are arguing from an end-game perspective. An early base is totally fine to have terrain walls.

[drowsy crane]

Terrain walls nullify the need for roughly ~5 buildable objects, and ~8 different ammo types.

[analog valve]

And I haven't heard a real reason why not tbh.

[drowsy crane]

I'm not at all, I just recently implemented those end game defenses, and they're overkill.

[drowsy crane]

They break enemy pathing, so you're not engaging with the system fully.

Might as well turn raids off.

[analog valve]

And as I said, I walk out and fight the raids. So, enemy pathing not broken.

[drowsy crane]

That's why I mentioned that you really wouldn't need them, and that you might've overcorrected by utilizing them.

[analog valve]

I don't use them because I have over corrected.

[drowsy crane]

Many players that are scared to fight, I can understand, but what you're describing is no different than what I do, only you have terrain walls.
