Have younmade the cauldron for food and mead ketill for meads?
Oh. It was a green cloud. Lesson learned
Yep, particles of being poisoned π
Poison resistance mead helps
-# We all have been there. 
Hello friends, how can I have enough eitr to cast the staff of the wilds but also enough stam and health fight with my regular weapons or do I have to specialise, I know there's like hybrid builds but they dont really do too well, so I thought it would be better to just focus on one staff since its eitr cost is fixed except for skill
You don't need that much HP if you utilise staff of protection regularly. So EES or EEF will be solid diet options.
Hmm true
You canβt, but some boats have storage built in to them.
ic, thank you
How long is the sap regeneration in a root is it about 2 in game days or longer?
A full regeneration of sap takes about 11 in-game days.
If you want faster production, consider installing more extractors into more ancient roots.
Ok I thought it was longer. Yeah I got a temp setup now getting as much as I can. Need to find a few more poles to get the other spot going if it wont break on me lol. But I was offered a good idea to try fingers crossed
IT DOES? I can unload it at full again in two days max :O To me it's the fastest producing thing in the game. I can be messing around in the mistlands for a relatively short time and empty and fill the extractors a couple times
You might be confusing the 10 sap the extractor can hold with the 50 sap an ancient root can hold.
I think they are talking about the ancient root not the sap extractor
Ok, heading for the 1st time to the swamps :3 why am I scared ?
Ah, you're smart to be scared.
Stealth is your friend in the swamps, I always recommend to build your first swamp portal just outside of the biome in a meadows/black forest that is attached.
Best to slowly work your way in the first time around.
What a nice welcome comitee ... 4 draugr , 5 leeches with a 1 star x)
And a small tower with a bee sound , thought it was a hive like usual ... didn't knew that body pile ...
Damn ... I wish I knew earlier that I shouldn't drop early ressources ...
Got a connection issue between PC and Xbox any mod can help or should i just shoot here?
troubleshooting here should be fine, though I'll be honest I don't usually see many giving advice on here for solving these problems
The issue seems to be highly technical so i guess i got no chance finding support here?
Sometimes there's some very technical fellas in here, just not often π
Probably better off searching the web, but not sure
Mods are also more just moderating the discord or giving tips on the game too, don't see them engaging a whole ton with technical issues
Heh, what resources are you lacking?
Strawberries / boar meat / snack tail, that kind of things ^^
*Raspberries. But those are easy to gather.
Mark berry bushes and mushroom clusters on your map for easier forage runs in the future, since they regrow.
I did marked them, just didn't farmed enough before unlocking the cauldron ^^
The raspberry bushes are very common, you can still find them when you explore wider.
Do swamp chambers work like burial chambers ? I mean if there are skeletons, means that there is a chamber close ?
sunken crypts can have oozers~~ or draugr elites~~ outside, skeletons spawn everywhere in swamps
the easiest way to find them is by looking for green torches
Normal draugr can also iirc.
Ok thanks π
The entrances are all similar looking and well above the terrain so they cannot be mistaken.
Just found one, there was nearby a stone structure circle, like the entrance of a well / tower with an elite, but it was underwater so π
thatβs a different structure, youβre looking for a small stone building in a box shape
Yup i'm in one rn , just found strange the other structure
swamp dungeons are easier to spot by the green torches than any mobs
though the green torches are on afew other locations too
can blast furnace smelt iron or silver yall
no sadly
aw man its a pain to only smelt 10 iron at once
they smelt at the same rate
how do i turn on the hot tub?
add wood to the back (under the chimney)
Put wood in the back little stove portion
i am to understand sitting in it eventually provides two extra points of comfort?
No need to sit, only the presence brings comfort when it is lit.
But you can sit on it, have wet debuff and resting effect at the same time, which is not possible in any other way.
is the hot tub also the only way of having the resting effect while under the open sky?
Yeah, you can rest almost anywhere as long as you have fire and no enemies nearby
Now I want to make a screenshot of my character in a rag tunic lying on the ground beside a campfire staring up at the stars.
that's something I haven't yet done in Valheim.
Sit next to fire will provide resting too.
the music playing when resting is so cozy
oh yeah about the soundtrack on steam, I read the reviews that it is not complete/up to date? I didn't check any further sadly but is it still true?
Iirc it is.
I actually bought the soundtrack just because it had all of them, but then they were added on Spotify afterwards.
Can I put an AK-47 mounted on an auto-turret to stup greylings from fucking around my base?
I know there is turret mod, you can ask that in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 π
I'm sorry I was just joking, its just bothering me, Idk how to prevent them from getting to buildings outside
make walls
Or moat.
Or both. π
I allowed my chickens to escape, is there any tip to getting them back into their pit
make them lay eggs and put those eggs in the pit
Corral them with the fence panels, then make a narrow chute just barely wide enough to walk through. Push the little buggers through the chute back home
This is the simpler solution
Ok
I think I got them all back just by pushing
It seems at night they're less active
the time of day doesn't affect their behaviour
I'm just lucky then
nice ... 2star draugr archer camping my tombstone ..
Do you have backup gear against it? You could take it with bow, shooting at it while moving left/right when it shoots at you to avoid getting hit.
I was dealing with him like that at the first place, problem is that piece of ... is camping right on top of its spawner x)
You could try getting it further from your tombstone, then run for it and pick all the loot inside to get corpse run, which grants temporal rapid hp regen, lower running stamina usage and resistances to physical damage types.
Recovered finally, ended by rushing right onto an Abomination, 2 other 1 star melee draugr, finally headed into a crypt to leave them ^^
At least you got it. 
Srsly that game ... Wandered 15min to find my 1st crypt, and while trying to get back my tomb, found 4 more x)
Should I keep some flint ? I'm at iron age atm, and have flint taking storage ^^
Not necessarily.
Unless you want to make more workbench upgrades or ton of flint arrows, you can toss them π
things that should not be tossed include but are not limited to: mushrooms
Usually it's wise to keep consumables like berries and mushrooms.
also: greydwarf eyes
BLUEBERRIES
For ratatosk you will forever require them. Same with honey, load up on the honey
Most if not all of the foragables are quite important in mead production
So if you have the time do some forage runs π
What do you think abouts Swords ? Never tried em
They are awesome, incredible all-rounders, they work on absolute majority of stuff you encounter π
Ok here's the end of this char / world ...
Was moving from this crypt, removed my portal. Spotted a circle of stone with 2 bone piles + skeleton spawner, put the portal again in case of death. Forgot to link it ...
Oooof, thats annoying. But hardly end of the world π you can sail there again and just link the portal.
Jack of all trades melee
master of non but can handle pretty much everything that is thrown at it
except maybe a certain enemy... 
and another boss
Very far from my spawn, with my latest iron stuff in the middle of a swamp π₯² so
Either way, I've learned the basics of the game to have a better fresh start now, especially in term of base decisions
Its mandatory to bring portal mats, as its literally mobile base
They did, they just didnt link it π
10 wood, 20 finewood, 10 greydwarf eyes, 2 surtling cores
and you have your base 24/7
damn that sucks
I wouldn't land ashore and make a base in swamp
especially for a newer player
I had put back my exploration portal, just didn't linked π₯²
Best to land near a safer biome like meadows
oh no my base is in the Meadows far from there
My exploration portal usually is one without any name, so i dont have to manualy link it π
before threading in the nearby swamp
woot ??? it does work ??
unnamed portal will connect to another unnamed portal
Yep π portals just check it there is the same thing on each of the two. Can be nothing, or one letter, anything π
So I just have to rename my base portal with nothing and the two would link ?
yes
Oh, yeah, that would work π
keep it blank basically
Well, worst part could be solved then ... comes the 2nd part, my dead body right on top a bone pile
and it'll automatically connect
Taht didnt occur to me honestly XD its been such a long time since i have been in situation like this
^^
is it worth investing in mistwalker sword? My sword skill is 0
It's solid weapon. No need to worry too much about skill levels.
You gain first levels quickly and you can even train against T.W.I.G.
it also has frost that slows enemies and since its a sword the damage doesnt get reduced vs multiple enemies
is it useful for ashlands? I've been using frostner so far
Some prefer it over Ashlands tier sword even.
i used it in ashlands
Mistwalker is nice in the Ashlands but the NidhΓΆgg is better
The thing with swords is you want to have high skill to the point you can stagger enemies like twitchers, and marksemn with one regular hit
Or the warriors with a secondary
you can parry them anyway
also true
Although the lightning ashlands weapons are pretty superios to other weapons
Especially the berserker axes
best cape rn for yall?
feather
BERSERKER AXES MY GOAT
Ashen for me.
thats not a cape
Wasnt responding to that question
i know lol
linen because*** fashion ***
π€ the -10% attack stam usage is pretty nice
It also stacks with the Ask set attack stamina usage reduction.
And grants higher armor.
Frrr
i want some buff alsoo
If devs added more duel axes mid game, man thatd be so sick. Would also love more duel knives
aura is the only buff you need π
SEE THAT'S WHAT I BEEN SAYING
im using embla set with feathers cape for drip π
Killing with drip is more important than staying alive lowkey
Thats why flametal is kinda balls
well i dont block i parry since parry don cost stam anymore
I use but you right it looks ahh besides the helmetπ
Snorrring ahhhh
i like flamental chest piece and pants more than hellmet
Asksvin Set is really good then, since the diminishing return on armor.
But, for capes, Ashen Cape is most definitely best for combat imo
ill try ask set
Ask set + Ashen cape the GOAT.
And as spear/knife user I appreciate the +10% pierce damage too.
Primal axes and Primal Splitnir is my favorite combo now.
bleeding is so bun rn π
High risk, low reward
but i cant find an iolite ive found 4 bloodstones now
At least you can make new black forge upgrade.
took me ages to get an iolite for nidhogg
Klossen is also neat for safely dealing with the big starred mobs and knockback.
But currently I prefer Primal Splitnir and Primal axes combo.
green gem on weapons with high atk speed kind of gives inf immobilize as long as u land the first hit, which is quite nice
You can also throw Splitnir, which also can root enemies.
Damn I never considered that
I have a green jade crossbow and when I get a snipe root that is very excellent for taking down Valk or rooting tough guys
Spear is great against all non charred enemies.
Yeah that sounds quite useful, I can imagine it has a nice utility where hunting asksvin are concerned.
Uhuh.
#memes-and-clips message
So heavy metal π€
Throw -> run -> autopick -> hit.
Same here. I have such a love-hate relationship with the helmet. The antler spikes on the top look fire, but I hate that it makes me look like a red eyed demon lol
Hi. Probably silly question but... is there any tool/software/webpage where you can plan building?
There are mods where you build things using blueprints, do you mean that?
If so, head to the #mods-discussion channel, otherwise pen and paper?
You can always utilize debugmode and nocost building in an alternate world with a different character.
It'll allow you to test out structures without the need for materials.
I do that too trying to show bits connect together.
hey guys, I am keeping my boars in a "pen" which is just a big square of core wood stacked horizontally, 4 logs tall. Its been working for a while now, but here and there one will escape. I really have no idea how lol, any ideas? (its only been boars that I have bred, so no anchor point to my knowledge?)
Possibly piggy being born outside walls, iirc they have certain offset from the parent when being born π
oooo that must be it! i have some space on one side of the pen, thanks a ton
how do I turn of inventory drop at death??? for a server specifically?
If its for a server then folks in #dedicated-server might be able to help. Normally you just go to world modifiers and turn down death penalty.
But keep in mind that you dont keep your full inventory, just your equiped (highlighted blue square) items.
what happens to the items that arent equiped?
Same as with normal settings, they stay at your gravestone
are vile bear aggressive with plains creatures?
Only growths. Theyre plains faction but friendly with bears too
hey, I'm a fairly new player and i have built a base that I really like. The one thing that I really don't like is how ground sticks up through the floor. I was just wondering if there was a way to fix this other than moving bases. Another problem I'm having is that my door goes into the ground meaning that I can't have any walls above my door because I wouldn't be able to fit. If I do just have to move bases can you guys recommend me some spots
Holy yap my bad
You can easily fix this with two tools, you should be able to make the hoe and flatten the surface, if that's not enough, the pickaxe will chip away at it significantly
Thanks for the help! I'll try it out
will placing crafting tables prevent fuelings from spawning?
within the 20 meters, yes
how to transfer world files in valheim after new update
You may want to ask in #valheim-public-test as it is not a public patch.
Did you select the tester role in the id:customize area?
evasion mantle is best trinket rn right yall
starting my build, valheim decided to fog it all up, is there an easy way to remove snow and fog in the mountains?
just depends on preference really
Imo it's not that useful outside of Hard/Vhard
is there a way to increase render distance?
draw distance
can u recommend me any trinkets
Bronze pendant stays good for long time: stamina regen is very nice for low adrenaline requirement and good duration.
Iron brooch is nice for tankier playstyle, especially when raiding fuling villages.
bronze pendant/nimble anklet for stamina, iron brooch, wolf sight for ranged, pulsating earrings for magic
so i might stick with bronze pendant
hey guys, i have a glowing effect since this morning and i can't find why exaclty, i've had no mod update since yesterday so it's kinda strange to me, it seems like i can't post the screenshot but it's a square glowing effect arround my character, it doesn't appear when my mods are disabled
Wolf sight is also nice, extra pierce plus skill levels to spears and bows.
im not rlly into ranged
I would go to https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202550198174486599 with that problem.
i saw mandle has parry bonus so i thought it would be good
It's not only for bows, but spears too. But the extra pierce will affect to any weapon dealing pierce.
It is super good.
Evasion Mantle just helps you not fail parries, but if you're on normal there's not many enemies that do so much damage as to make you need Mantle to successfully parry
Iron Brooch is all around very good and unlocked early, works well into the endgame.
There's one trinket in Ashlands that's kinda busted
I personally really like fins of destiny. They look like a meme, but they're actually quite nice for escaping a bad situation or travelling by water without a boat
tysm
arent the ashland trinket gives 100stam and hp both
that's one yea. There's another called Jormundling which gives you 100 eitr, along with some other buffs which is kinda broken
Can just keep firing magic staves with almost no pause
oh the snake ring that thing is busted for mage players
but sadly im a melee player
It has pretty high adrenaline requirement, plus having it trigger when you don't need makes it wasted effort.
mhm
No need to be sad, I prefer melee too
Magic just feels very unengaging to me, which ruins the fun
im used to melee than magics but ngl magics in valheim is very op
Magic = easier, melee = more fun π
I prefer melee too. I appreciate evasion mantle as 2h weapon user, so I don't need to use shield/buckler all the time for parrying properly.
yea im a heavy weap user too
parrying + dodging feels just right for me
While it is active I can easily parry 1 star warrior attack without getting staggered.
wearing drip and parry everyhing lowk is my style
ask set + ashen cape with storming slayer
Nice.
Same armor set and cape but I like dual axes and still use battleaxe there.
Only 1h weapon I nowadays carry there is spear.
slayer is cool but primal splitnir + storming berserker axes is hella dmg
rooted effect and free dmg
well it just my opinion
but it very effective even now
I know, they are good.
Sometimes I carry both versions of axes, but usually Primal axes stay.
primal axes is cool
more hit = more chance for rooted effect
Easy way to deal with ||Lord Reto|| too. When first root effect hits, switch to axes, drink berserkir mead and hack until it's dead.
oh yea i forgot to do the quest
for dyrnwyn blade
i wanna wear wraith's drip
Green gems are the only ones I won't use for enchanting
At all?
Yeah, they feel cheesy to me
Crossbow i might consider it on bc it feels less cheesy, but for crossbow I prefer blood or lightning anyways
does valheim have any mid to late game sloped ceilings besides thatch rooves?
yup two others, ||one in plains, one in ashlands||
what's the ||plains|| one?
It uses ||tar||
i've figured that out, what is it?
Single roofs
its just a roof, hard to describe it just google it to see
Shingle
thanks rudemann
How the hell do you move the chickens in a corner so you can get the eggs? Haha.. they are strong AF
i place doors along the edge of the coop so i can use them to push the chickens and/or eggs away
Meadow's music is really relaxing βΊοΈ
I thought i found an infested mine, 4 seekers where there, but when i go into the round building, it has nothing inside besides a ygdrasil tree. Is this possible? Or should there be an IM inside somewhere?
It's possible, that's a POI alternate with no dungeon.
Itβs a different type of POI. Ruined dvergr tower
what is the interest in it? Its empty lol
Free marble and copper?
It's not about interest, it's an old structure taken over by the fauna of the Mistlands. It's world building!
Nope, that's how the devs refer to such places, even tiny wooden wells in the Meadows are POIs
ok ty
Anyone have a few minutes to spare to explain about stabilizing the roof when building bigger houses or buildings? (in discord voice?)
Shortest distance possible from ground. Corewood, stone and iron, etc gives more support and lets you build higher
Corewood instead of wood if higher up then? (dont have stonecutter or forge at this location)
Yep
Make sure all your ground level walls are blue too
For more stability, yes. Feel free to ask iff you're curious about other things though, there are some nuances to building rooftops.
Thanks.
I'm building a very big building to have chickens in so I can farm a lot.. thats why I'm having a hard time
Blue?
I thought it was only green, yellow, orange and red?
No if it touches ground its blue
Or stone or trees
Chickens but no stone cutter, hmm
Thanks for the help, gonna try it out
what plain tier weapons are worth crafting
blackmetal atgeir
I hardly ever craft any of the BM weapons
Thats what I used to do. But then they added more fist weapons and I fell in love
whatever type of weapon you like or have been using. weapons with aoe and/or pierce are useful in plains, atgier does both if you use atgiers. i like battleaxe and spear combo
how useful do we say porcupine is? that's the plains tier club, right?
Huntsman and abyssal razor
its more useful than frostner imo becaise frostner doesnt hurt lox at all, itβs more likely to stagger enemies and does better dmg to fulings because fulings are immune to spirit. frostner really is not a great weapon to leave mountains with
(fulings move a lot slower after getting hit by frostner)
they move slower if theyre dead or staggered
That'll be a question for #mods-discussion.
ah sorry
I love meadow and resting music so much
Maybe because I spent most of my time there lol
imo all the music is really great
I gonna need more valheim time to take them in, since at the moment I can only recall mistland theme
...
I should play valheim...
Base building time .... I hate this ... i'm so bad at it x)
I, on the other hand, love it, as long as I have resources
it's just that I suck at it π
need some tips?
We all have been at that point.
I always have problem with entrances ... Like right now, i've flatten the area, put some beams on the ground to have my shape then i'm placing floor, but if I walk, beams are too thick for me to just get on
stairs, and some kind of roofed entryway
Would like :3
You can also get tips from building channels below the channel list.
let's move this to the https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202303747053846608 so I can post screenies
outdoor warmth
evil kermit: you should play valheim indeed...
Visual cues, sailing around the coasts looking for dvergr wisp lights or the rock formations jutting out, if inland listen for multiple seekers near structures as those will usually be mines under abandoned dvergr buildings
if you get jumped by a one-star and a no-star near a building its a mine
guys i found haldor in black forest what should i buy
The Megingjord π
do i need anything else??
The hoops are nice π but just in case i would buy everything at least once if you have enough money
tysm
Also, little tip, visit him after each boss kill. He might surprise you with some new stuff here and there π
oki doki i sold my entire life savings and bought everything

i knew those ambers would worth something
You still have both kidneys? xD
i gave them to halstein
I am sure he appreciated it xD he is such a sweet boy
does thunder stone have any use i couldnt find anything with hammer
and the ymir flesh
It will π but after you progress to swamp
And Ymir flesh when you get to mountains (and also swamp)
(There is a use for ymir in the swamp)
im next to a swamp
Oooh, true, forgot about that
what do we do w it
Material for advanced crafting
okiii thank you guys
-# You will see 
But isn't Halstein vegetarian? π
-# I am sure he will appreciate it even when he cant do anything with them 
-# I wonder how. 
-# Cuddles ofc 
how can i get a stone golem trophy efficiently
Hey guys never played valhiem and on a weekend anyone wanna play like a long session
im down
I will download it real quick
add me on steam, check dms
Me and my brother were playing and he died and his body disappeared. Can we do something about it? We lost all progress.
unfortunately i think no, it happened to me and my friend once, he left right after dying and his stuff wasnt there
Devs should fix that. They are losing players that way.
they should, what zone were you in progression wise?
Mountain
damn thats rough, you got a backup set of armor?
We got past sets but if that happened later on in the game it would be impossible to retrieve. He uninstalled the game because this problem has been present since launch and they haven't done anything about it.
i do agree they need to fix it, we were lucky and only in black forest progression so it was easy to recover, if you were in ashlands progression
thats almost impossible
Did your brother alt f4 out of the game?
thats what my friend did, he left as soon as he died
not alt f4ed totally but to the menu screen
Well if you dont let the world save your corpse, you cant blame the world
i see
No, he died.
He ran to retrieve it and it was gone.
Usually a missing corpse is the world file not saving that you died, often because of a disconnect.
If it was in a dungeon it could have fallen out of bounds
You can always reload a previous save of your character or use devcommands to spawn in missing items
yo they can fall outta bounds?
Not on regular ground, but ive had them clip through dungeon walls. Its very rare tho
oh okay
Could either be stuck on the outside of the dungeon or fall all the way to the world surface
could also have been retrieved by someone else if this is not just you two on the world
Added
other than that, corpses do not just magically disappear, they can fall out between awkward geometry, float off the side of the map if you sail off the edge, be stolen, and your marker can be overridden, but there isnt some recurring disappearing corpse problem
mods can also alter the game a lot
Yeah, unless someone abruptly leaves the world, either by crash, disconnect or alt f4.
i have a dediccated server for me and my brother that i am paying from another website. he is trying to join and its saying incompatible version. can someone help me fix this
just a wild guess here but maybe check if either of you guys are playing the public test version?
Mods or ptb probably yea
how do i check that? new to the game
When starting the game, un bottom right. Also need to have your mods up to date and compatible with newest version of the game
In steam check properties betas
if i have mods enabled but my brother doesnt have those downloaded would that be why?
A mismatch can also happen if server has outdated mod and you not having a mod installed client side
That's an issue as well but this depends in your server as well
Game isn't very helpful in pointing out the exact issue. Likely cause of no official mod support
Basically. Have the same identical mods, have them all compatible and have the same version of the game to be fullproof
that was the reason, i had a few mods enabled on the server and whenn i disabled them he was able to join
thank you guys for the help
If you put a mod on your server, a player without the mod installed won't be able to join. Most mods work this way. Is one way to force players to have the same mods
Had to find out the hard way too
Any tips on finding the floating islands in the ocean?
Just sail around and keep an eye out, not much more to it
How often do you tend to find them, would like to make abyssal razor and upgrade it and not sure if worth the time and effort
I watched a guy in VC the other day sail around for hours before he got enough to max the razor, meanwhile I ran across 3 in the span of like 10 minutes of sailing
I already spent more time than that so I will bet on the worse alternative
i like making my mods soft-dep for vanilla playthroughs if its just some QOL/silly stuff
yea its very possible to have serverside only mods, its up to the modder
it can just cause some weirdness. for example i made someone elses speaker/jukebox mod soft dep, and so vanilla clients obviously cant see the speakers. someone built something where the speaker was and it was clipping through for those with the mod and couldnt hear the speaker anymore
it prob can get a lot worse than that depending on the mod
This happened a couple of times now and the structures dint contain a mine lol, i must be very unlucky then. Are they more common inland or coastal?
get the exploding trashcan π i forgor what its called
i recommend strength belt before anything else
Hi!
What is the drop rate of stone golem's trophy?
5% if i remember right
Does anyone have a dragur elite trophy they donβt need? Tryna make an iron sledge and Iβm having shit luck with drops
Your friend could load backup save of the character to retrieve the items back. They are found in manage saves option on character/world menu.
hey there. i am deforesting rn and wanted to ask if the wood i just let laying there could despawn
it will despawn after 2 ingame days
if you place a campfire/workbench it will not despawn within 20 meters(workbench build range
Fill up a cart, 180-240 silver, roll it over a wood floor "diving board"... toss it down the sheer cliff of the mountain (avoid rocks), then sail it back
or set up a mountain base and make your silver stuff up there (?)
Idk, you got options 
i mean you don't need alot of silver do you?
I think that it's better to divide silver, because 240 silver in one cart would be almost impossible to move
What do you want to craft?
well planning on till i maded to the mistlands
something like armor,weapons, just that
You dont need to move it much, just toss it down the mountain.
yeah but finding the right spot is hard
If you want to craft armour, you will have to get 60 silver (without upgrades), weapon costs from 30 silver (except for flesh rippers, spear and knife). I can't say exactly how many you need, because it depends on what you want to craft and will you upgrade it
include upgrade
What would you like: sword, mace, axe, fists, knife or spear?
I think that it's better for you to go to valheim wiki and see everything by yourself
Just found in the Meadows a stone circle (not the small ones looking like a boat shape) looking like monoliths, is there something burried or just aesthetic ?
Nothing special there
Ok so no need to mark it ^^ thank you π
wishbone can guide you to treasure outside of the mountains
I'm not there yet, just exploring the shores on my starting island (which is kinda big this time ...)
Ooo first 2 star neck π
#screenshots message if my world looks like this, should i expect traders to spawn south of my explored area?
Honestly, no idea without seed information.
how do i get seed information?
Either when you are selecting which world you want to play, there you can see it next to the name. Or while in game type printseeds into console
#screenshots message
It's only my 3rd world so I don't really know the standarts. But is that the "normal" size of a starting island ? My last 2 weren't as big by far !
Hard to judge the size from this particular screenshot, but i would say this is quite normal size for starter island π
Ok so my lasts were just small, thanks π
you can post images in this channel btw
wait really? ok lol
Yeah, we have to use screenshot channel now even for help purposes π₯²
They were getting pretty frequent in this channel, yeah.
damn I thought it was intentional to use #screenshots exclusively for screenshots π
It still is.
Well. It is. But you used to be able to send pics here if you needed help with something.
hope that can return soon π
i thought that you consider your current one small
Oh no this one is big ^^
Nice ... I've got two 1 star bears guarding the entrance to the nearest black forest π
Running for now, killing when i'll have bronze ^^
What are the odds for a burial chambers to have 2 floors ?
it can happen. Usually not two full floors though, there's a limit on the number of rooms.
2 floors, 3 spawners, 1 ghost and 11 cores ...
thank you very much
staff of embers or frost
I guess embers π₯
both. fire for aoe on bugs, frost for scary things and pierce damage on gjalls
All four staves imo
Dead Raiser is situational in practice IMO, but it grants xp better than staff of protection.
Although my friend who was dedicated mage player did use it even in Ashlands and quite effectively.
My buddy ran with me through ash i was melee he was magic using every single thing it was so cool
IMO fluently switching between weapons mid-combat leads to a lot of cool gameplay and it can be pretty useful too
Even early on, chucking a spear at an enemy then doing a sprinting jump at them while pulling out a knife and activating its secondary just feels good
I remember the first time i wanted to be a sneak-meister and I discovered how much dmg a knife can do to a troll ππ
Nothing buried, but interestingly the ground within is always very flat.
I've heard that it was a now dropped idea from the dev. At the beginning, these circles would have been the only spot where you could build portals
Someone get Dvoid on the horn I like that idea they should go back to it.
They used to be "challenge->reward" places
iron brooch bodies heart of the forest in practical usefulness, right?
times infinity
that's a bit excessive-
Hello this is my first time in the Mountains biome and I am wondering what my gear should be? I have parts of the wolf armor already equipt, so the cold isn't an issue. I am using the iron buckler shield, but basically does nothing against the golems. what should i be doing? and this wishbone thing is hard to use... i follow the pings until they get fast but i cant seem to find the "center" where the pings would be the fastest.
please no spoilers for anything beyond the mountains.
i am using a maxed out iron mace as my weapon currently btw
Iron buckler should be more than strong enough to parry golems, are you blocking or parrying? Also what food do you have?
Mace is actually pretty good there.
thats how much better it is
onion soup, black soup or whatever it's called, and sausages. as for iron buckler, it seems that it doesn't provide enough protection against stagger for me since when i do parry the golem, i still get staggerred or close to it.
i really like iron mace versus wolves, it's also best-in-slot versus golems
maybe its just a skill issue tbh
In case of armor, depends if you find heavy armor more safe option or if you like the utility of light armor.
iron buckler is for parrying. if you want to tank the golem you should have a tower shield, maybe banded.
for fighting golems you might want to dip into your supply of serpent meat
i already did, i guess i should go out and get more. am i able to fish for serpents during the day if i have the heavy bait?
i honestly don't know 0w0
Heavy bait is for ocean fish, which are coral cod and tuna.
You can't really "fish" serpents.
when sailing at night and or rain the bait is your own body
so since the night is only 9 minutes long and the wind always seems to be against me, getting a serpent to shore, killing it, and trying to find another is really hard.
Depends on rng.
is there an item i can use that increases mob drops?
Only one, but it's only for ||trolls||.
i already maxed out my troll gear so i dont need their filthy skin anymore
hey joel, might i suggest ||obliteration||?
It's more for the money, as far as I see it.
how do i find the "center" area for when my wishbone is pinging?
There can sometimes be small burial areas on mountains that have skeleton underground.
im talking about finding that delicious silvery goodness
Yeah, but mentioned that it can also happen.
You could dig bit wider and deeper on the area where pings are more regular.
You'll eventually find silver deposit.
how deep and how wide are we talking
Like 4-6 meters
Iβve installed azuextendedplayerinventory and itβs worked but Iβve no extra inventory slots, any idea how to fix that?
this channel isnt for mods
Oh didnβt even see we had mods dedicated channel, thanks
Ye can also help me if ye like
If ye know how to fix it
This channel is mostly for help related to vanilla game, which is why modded channels exist.
People who see your message there will be more able to help.
Most folks that chat in this channel really don't know much about mods tbh
Ok well I am playing vanilla game, but the thing thatβs frustrating is the constant inventory issue so I said Iβd try a mod for inventory to make it a nicer experience
Yes I have asked also now in mod issue channelπ
Loving this game so much, I donβt usually like single player games but this is so good
It's quite a good game, fairly replayable as well
Game is very great, I agree. It is fun both solo and co-op, especially if you have good group to play with.
Yeah the plan is to get knowledge of the game and join a dedicated server with others π
two swamp tier feasts and onion soup for fishing?
is there a possibility of my boat floating away if i just let it sit there in the water without any precautions?
theoretically if you are in the zone, it is night or raining, a serpent spawns, and starts randomly pushing your boat, yes. however, that doesnt happen. only way boat moves is if it hits a rock or something. that will push it slightly. your boat will not just float away
ok. thanks for clarifying π
to clarify, serpents dont push boats. they bite them
also, if there are other water enemies, they will sometimes attack the boat. its mostly a problem in meadows with necks
flesh rippers worth using in the mountains or should i stick to my iron mace
They are good, but for golems keep iron mace
Worth is defined by individual. I find fist weapons fun to use.
im scared to fight fenrings because ive heard they're terrifying. are they actually easy to kill? what is the strat to dealing with them as this is my first time in the mountains
they have a claw attack and a pounce attack
both can be parried. if you learn to parry them, they arent so bad. golems are much worse imo
also, golems are not part of the same faction, so golems will fight them. fenrings also only spawn at night, so if you donjt go at night they dont spawn
Iβm more scared of packs of wolves than fenrings
they also drop literal trash so no reason to kill them outside of the trinket and fishing bait
Little stronger than regular wolves, but they don't attack as frequently.
ive also heard 2 star wolves are not to be messed with except for breeding
They can kill you really fast π
They are much rarer. Only 1% chance for randomly spawned wolf during night.
that doesnt make them any less dangerous
nothing is stopping all the wolves at night from having two stars
odin will make it happen if you kill enough necks
So you are saying i should go and kill every neck i see if i want many 2 star night spawns? Well i am sold! π
Is Autowalk on gamepad possible? Using diff buttonts with LT has no results
are there any plans to add different carts to the game? the base cart made with bronze nails is kinda weak and im scared to take it into the mountains since the enemies there would break it in a few hits
you won't want to move it anywhere in mountains because of the steep slopes, but pushing one down a mountain is a great way to bring metal back
no idea, but also not related to this channel
why scared? just build it again it drops all the mats when its destroyed
Easier than cultists imo
fenrings is probably the one mob in the game that takes the most different damage
only resistant to poison, takes spirit and weak to fire
what about
frost
True, they are only immune to the chop and pickaxe dmg π€
They are neutral
neato
same as mistiles, but they don't have resistances or weaknesses
takes less fire than fenring does poison
i just meant overall i think fenring is the most vulnerable mob resistance wise, ulv is close tho
Eikthyr also takes spirit.
True true, but no stagger since Its boss 
spirit doesnt stagger anyway?
It doesn't.
I meant just as a dmg type, not to imply Spirit does stagger π
stagger isn't a damage type either
at least my statement still technically stands as eikthyr isnt a mob 
what technically is a mob?
True... Too tired sorry xD
And mob in context of video games should be Mobile Object or Movable Object Block google says.
from years of playing wow, mob is just basic npc you kill
mob in video games is a non-boss enemy
or its the verb refering to the practice of rounding them up before clapping them with aoe
carapeice buckler or shield with mistwalker?, idk which one to use
the buckler parries better than any other item in the game right now
ok, but would the shield be better espeically if i am having trouble timing parries
Shield is good enough.
It's better for regular blocks than buckler, but like said, buckler has highest block armor while parrying.
and practice makes perfect
if you dont use it you will never get decent at it
I find it harder to get used to dodge timing than parrying
the window for dodging is over twice as long
Ye but i don't get the timing well most of the time ^^
Quick question, do big mobs (trolls/bears) respawn naturally ?
Yep π
i also found their respawns to be somewhat consistent
Erf ...
Trolls also have set spawn points near the entrances and inside the troll caves.
yeah, but those are unique spawns iirc
Trolls aren't a prob (placement talking) but i have 3 bears really bad placed x)
just kill em
once you have bronze gear they get obliterated
One time spawners. All caves don't have them tho.
Neither have fixed repeating spawn points, but they can be somewhat area consistent spawns. π
i have seen a one star troll spawn within the same 10 meter retancle dozens of times in one of my playtroughs...
area had a lot of fragmented ground and water, which would explain that
Spawn points at troll caves can spawn starred trolls regardless of the distance restriction for random spawns getting stars.
If thats the case then yeah i can see that happening. No other viable spawn position other than that certain square
Just in my current new run 2 troll caves I went inside had starred troll. 
More troll hide for start? XD
Well, I was bear man already. 
more hide, more coin
i also liked that respawning one-star
i got soooo much coin from him
i completely mined out the bottom of a massive standing rock and it wont pop, what am i doing wrong?
Dig around more π
Its quite likely that its invisible stability checking hitbox is still connected somewhere
those large rocks can have super deceiving hitboxes
Also, the first killed bear dropped trophy.
#screenshots message
i once had a copper deposit i could walk under and it refused to break...
they can connect to ground like 2 meters away through the air
That is quite common π
is there a command i can use to see hitboxes
Sadly no. There are some mods but you can just make the hole bigger untill it breaks π
i just realized... does frostner stagger more because frost damage adds to stagger?
or am i blind in my ignorance
probably just feels like it because it slows too
Great i remember something at least, but gonna go let the brain rest for today xD
hey, I've gotten silver and made the fenris armor, and have the recipes unlocked for a few things, but for some reason I don't have the recipe for the silver pickaxe and axe, and im assuming a few more things
There is no silver pickaxe and 1h axe.
seriously?
Yes.
finally got it to pop
are there any better picks later?
everything has been telling me that there's a silver pick
There will be.
Where did you hear about that?
if an ai told you there's a silver tier pick it hallucinated
youtube/web, literally look it up and ai tells you and websites tell you
ai gets half the stuff wrong on valheim π
use the wiki, its far more accurate than any AI, article or youtube video
There surely are mods that add silver tier pickaxe and 1h axe, but there is neither in Vanilla game.
And AI summaries are very often wrong about games.
and increasingly youtube videos reference ai without enough human intervention
thanks, just looked it up and the wiki is accurate
Yes it is. 
lol I literally ran around for hours crazy thinking I glitched my game
anyways, thanks guys
ai is the glitchy thing not valheim
the wiki is very well maintained, and much of the info is datamined so it'll be more accurate than assumptions
well I usually don't use the wiki, and I heard that sometimes it isn't up to date yet on valheim stuff
thats not a glitch, thats the AI working as intended
and i seriously wished every homo sapiens on the planet realized wtf a LLM actually does
darn...
wikis often aren't up to date for other games but with valheim the changes usually aren't serious enough for knowledge bases like that to suddenly be outdated and misinform
yeah, outdated for the valheim wiki means stuff is missing, not wrong
if anything the fact the wiki can be updated with time makes it more accurate than youtube
yeah, and ususally that just means a new content update dropped very recently
youtube is almost as often wrong as the google AI
and the google AI is full of shit on a good day
wow.
alright who just deleted my messages
don't tempt the hammers 
mods when they see something that is clearly an innocent joke: π€¬
its offtopic at this point anyway
It would fall into "trolling" category which is not appropriate on this server.
All good.
Since there was already confusion about those it's better not add it further.
im still using the early axes. should i switch to a maxed out iron axe for wood cutting?
if you want to, they do 5 more damage, but are probably slower
For combat, Early axes stay quite good even during mountains.
Early axes have 35/44 and iron axe 50/59 chop damage.
oh i was looking at bronze by accident
It would save iron for keeping using Early axes. 
good to know for next run
early axes almost as good as iron
Whoever told you that is wrong, anything I have noticed was updated a day later or less.
Hey guys I was using a mod for inventory and putting my armor into different slots, I have loaded the game through non mod mode and my armor seems to be all gone, I am naked, how can I retrieve it?
Try asking in #mods-issues or #mods-discussion
HELP NEEDED. I am trying to join one of my friends world but it keeps saying Failed to connect each time. I try to join another world same thing. I tried no cross play, deleting and reinstalling, deleting all local files, verify integrity of game files in Steam, restarting my WIFI, join friend through Steam I tried everything and yet it still says Failed to connect. Others of my friends can join the world without any problems and we have not been on this world for at least a year. I don't know what going on with it since it seems like i can't join any worlds but the ones i made myself. We have no mods on the world and i don't have/own an VPN. We all on the same version too. I would like some help with this problem.
reading is hard nvm
Wondering if anyone on Xbox is having staggering issue when loading in new areas. I have it set to performance. When I walk around in an area I haven't discovered it staggers/stutters for about 2 seconds to seemly load the new chunk. Never done this to me. I created a new world and still happening. Btw did add this to xbox bug issues.
send me the logs at %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim after trying to connect. i might be able to tell you whats going on.
player.log <---
you will need to reload the mod and take the armor out of modded slots into vanilla inventory before taking the mod off again
Is there a tip to find copper ? Like do they spawn more in the land than close to the shore ? Any "generic" spot I must look out ?
big rock piles with streaks
I'm drowning in tin but copper ...
easier to find them in pine areas since the pines dont obscure sight
I'm having trouble finding even tin and copper, I have to go so freakin' far it feels like
should I have not built at the stones at the start?
probably not
I think I have a "bad seed" IDK, I don't have much of a reference.
i try to build in a scenic spot, usually by a river or the ocean
also flat area helps
I don't know what my seed did to burial chambers but omg ... only visited 5 , i'm at like 45 cores
π₯
out of 5 , 3 of it had a ramp to another floor, 2 of it were actual floors with loot ^^
Is fishing worth it ? Finally found Haldor :3
PS: already bought the belt and the light circlet
Eventually there are some good fish to be had for some great food recipes.
There are some beneficial meads and recipes to be sure! For me, I just like fishing with serene music on before I head to work.
Ok so i'll get it I think, I still have the finances for
One trick to fishing is not casting too far and when they bite and are hooked, running backwards.
That light helmet is so comfy to have β€οΈ
I don't understand why sometimes (in the black forest at least) i can dig the ground with the pickaxe, and sometimes I can't , I mean i do have the animation, but nothing happens, no stone loot, and no terrain changes
Sounds like you're at the terrain limit, or hitting a permanent object like a dungeon entrance.
I'm mining the underlines of a copper node. I've digged on the left, but when I wanna dig straight to find some new veins, the terrains just do a slope (heading toward the core of the node)
curious: if you're at the terrain limit and try to hit it with a pickaxe, does it show "0 damage" or nothing at all?
Yeah, the limit is 8m up and down from where it generated. You're at the limit it seems.
Nothing iirc
#screenshots message
Like this, so it would mean that the terrains follows a slope too ?
I'm at "floor" level everywhere
Yes, the terrain limit is based around natural generations, so you're going to have something similar to what the surface looked like originally.
Ok... Thanks for the explanation
Isn't the thing supposed to collpase when it's flying in the air without any attach to the ground / sides ?
Yes
I think it needs to be at least 1 meter from any structure/terrain, then just start mining at it, it should give way and crumble after a couple stone breaks. (Might not get it all in one break)
2 meters more like
hello all, hope your well. i have a question. im building on my private server with some mods but further down the road i would req a few ppl in the same time zone to join me.....in aka 1-2months, i know it is a long time but i am a perfectionist, so i wish everything to be perfect for any person wanting to join. curentlly teraforming the land for the walls and towers after that i will start with guest hauses, so everyone has a roof over there heads....you can build your own as well later but you will always have a prebuild (by me) hause/villa near my domain
What is the question?
ohh π€£ if anyone would be interested to join
Ah. 
You can make a post in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1024264966712340510 π
when reqruting, indeed, for know it is just a question 
Anyone knows what this is ? π€ #screenshots message
is it
?
π
I mean ^^ that doesn't feel natural, the placement etc, so is it a special spot for something? or just aesthetic ?
It's just a POI with a lot of rockys
Big
clearing. 
wrong server π€£
Oh x)
I was also confused for a sec. 
We have
but when we get same for wrong server? π
Should I invest in Aegir ? Never tried it but I already have sword / mace
Atgeir is powerful weapon.
Was wondering just now. Isn't it better to go with Atgir (pierce) / Axe (slash and treecutting) / Mace (blunt) / Bow (for range) ?
covers every type right ?
Yeah, it is usually wise to have those 3 damage types covered.
You could make atgeir and try it out.
The thing that makes it powerful is the secondary attack, which has 360Β° AoE, 6x stagger multiplier and no multitarget penalty.
And how does the primary feels ? Is that a forward stab ? or a wide slash ?
forward stab
is it still possoble to cheese the rancid remains in burial chambers?
like, off of the ledge at the entrance
didn't they fixed that bug ? and skeletons can now climb that ledge ?
oh. ok. thanks for the info π
I'm not sure , have to check that
But I heard it somewhere. I personally, to deal with rancid, just get close, trigger their attack, walk back to dodge it and it leaves time to place 2 hits with a mace, rince & repeat
They will climb it from left side now π (when looking from the entrance)
3 hit stab combo, which has longer reach than any other weapon.
oh man that sounds good
I find stabbing with spear a little weird, and short range, even though it is fast. I should give atgeir a try
Atgeir will probably fit the "proper spear stab" better π
You can place campfires I guess.
Or just put cooking station blocking the corridor then bow it down
guys i found someone in swamp a trader what should i buy from him
what is love potion lol
woodland and seafarer's herbs
also being a witch she's probably a woman π΅
it was a tree actually
I recommend buying every ingredient she sells. Especially cured squirrel hamstrings.
thank yall <3
oh at least one serving tray
isnt that just for decoration
at least one? you don't need multiple
it's required to use some of her other items
serving tray is for placing food. it's not for laying food upon
Love potion effect ||increases troll spawn changes tremendously|| and ||makes them spawn at least with 1 star when you are far enough from center of world (at least 2000m distance)||.
||so its only for troll farms like i cant make necks fall in love w boars or something like dat||
you can place as many feasts as you want as many times as you want with just one serving tray π
kermit the frog and miss piggy remains a pipe dream π
It is one way to farm coins at least. Or if you are in need for the trophies.
can i get some help w my armor im at swamp and getting a lot of dmg ill send it #screenshots what should i do
should i make the armor of that big enemy tree??? it has lower stats then my set i upgraded some of my armors
It is up to you. Note that your current armor is upgraded, it would otherwise have lower armor than the new one at same quality level.
If you check the stats of the armor pieces on workbench you can notice it has some nice benefits.
i use bear chestplate thing it has %10 chop rate so i think its better in swamp cuz when i fight with that big tree i use my axe
You would need full bear armor set to get the bonus.
And chop doesn't affect to any mobs in game, it is the property used for cutting wood.
So axe has no benefits against the abominations.
Axe does well because of the slash damage they don't resist.
Sword and bear paws are other good options.
thank youuu
That being said, personally I like the bear armor set a lot and use it until I get the light armor set in mountains. But Root armor set is also nice one, its set bonus grants some bow skill levels, but the mask and chest pieces have their own individual bonuses.
Although using any of the pieces from root armor makes you weak to fire, but in swamps that is no problem.
i used bow a lot and its kinda like cheating cuz it deals so much damage and i wanna get harder fights but idkk maybe ill use root armor
i like close fights a bit more bow kinda destroys it cuz it oneshots everything π
It is not bad for close combat either. The chest piece alone makes your character safe against archers, to mention one group of enemies.
thanks for all the advices ill use them well <3
deathmosquitos and abominations are fighting rn π i make them kill each other
Good
What is the distance you max have to be in order to chickens to lay egg and reproduce? Is there any specific?
Be wary, squito means you are close to plains, which is 5th biome in order. π
actually its like a sooo small place next to swamp and black forest so its kinda like a bug but goblins and squitos spawn a lot
so after the swamp should i go to mountains??
Around within ~64 meters.
guys i planted my carrots so close to each other now it says needs more room to grow i cant seem to pull them out are those carrots gone now??? π
Sadly, yes, at least one of them, destroy one and the other should have enough space π
how do i destroy them?? with a pickaxe?? i couldnt do it with the hoe
Ive not used a bow for 2 years for this reason ^
With any weapon or fist
okii thenk you i just died rn
Bow is great choice since you can be very precise π
UGHHH I AHTE FULINGS
my suggestion is to find a swamp that isnt near plains
fulings are two biomes ahead you're not supposed to be worrying about them yet
they are just in my way to swamp i run past them most of the time but they follow and sneak sometimes
and tbh im kinda lazy to move n find a new swamp again :3
as you wish
im collecting ores from those fulings but i cant take them w me to home how can i put those ores to portal??
you can't teleport any ores/ingots at normal settings
Cant. Gotta boat them
π
you can change that in world modifiers tho
You also Cant portal tin, copper, iron, or any other metals for that sake
You can enable modifier if you want. But that will diminish the satisfying feeling of sailing your ore home π
yea ur right
But I wouldnβt worry about black metal right now. You donβt have the equipment to process it yet ;)
Some should be able to grow, and once those grow, pick them, and the others will now have room to finish growing. I wouldn't personally destroy them, since in my experience most if not all will eventually finish growing once you pick more
All the folders in that file i that youe said were characters, serverlist_local, worlds, worlds_local, adminlist, bannedlist, permittedlist, Player, Player-prev. These are all the files in found in there.
a lot of the time when like at least 1 in 3 times i exit a chest i jump, i use controller, where the B button is exiting a chest but also jumping,
is this fixable? and is this a bug or something? like its really annoying to me
i have a complicated question.
Been trying to extend a river around my village/houses, but I reached the max depth (due to a dumb little hill). Is there a way around this?
Only mods sadly
Shoot
In that case, maybe there's some other solution? Trying to go around my inn and smithery (left two buildings) #screenshots
My idea was to create a very subtle village, build a bridge over the river, then make a path leading towards a mansion.
In vanilla, the only way around this is plotting out such things in terrain where such things won't happen.
what's a troll's pathfinding radius?
when does it choose to attack a wall instead of walking to a gate in a way's away part of the same wall?
Well this is the location of my first ever house so that's why.
But in that case I'll hop to #building-discussion.
Trolls are like most enemies, and utilize a vision cone that changes size depending on the amount of light on a player(the little bar under the stealth eye indicates light), but can also detect with noise. There are priorities for Trolls, where if the player is completely undetected, play built structures will be targeted with no bias for a gate, if the player is detected within walls, it will path towards a gate.
darn
If there is a way they can pathfind on, and they are alerted to the player then it doesent matter how far they have to walk.
If there is no path to the player but they are still alerted to them they should take the shortest path to them and smash their way through obstacles.
During a raid, the player is detected regardless of vision/light/noise, so the gate comes into play faster, as it is part of the pathing.
Hi anyone know how to set steam version of valheim to .13 ?
trolls attacked my wall and didnt walk through a gate during a raid
Mines .12 atm
.13 is public test branch
Look into the patch notes and here you have a way to opt into it
It was likely you dropped this initial detection you are given when raids start, but they were close enough to structures to change targets.
I'm glad, happy I could offer some insight!
yes! thank you
i actually have another question
Fire away π
#memes-and-clips message how far apart in game meters are these two sets of spikes
I would say around 2m
The tips seem to be about ~4m apart? Hard to tell tho
Maybe a little more
i meant at their bases @n@
I would say 2 normal beams no?
i'm sorry
Depends on where you're looking I suppose, I'm looking spike to spike, which would be the focus of the build
Yeah probably around 4m then.
Half beams are 1m for reference.
ohhh
The tips, i would say that would be around 2 wood beams, which is 4m
i thought half beams were 1 meter
Yep
i very specifically would like to know how wide the spikes are in total, not just the opening
tip is a little ambiguous, the tip of the base or the pointy part?
So the widest point, as in from back to one side of spikes to the back of the other side of spikes, yes?
yes
You're looking at 4-6m for that, but the gap seems to only be about 2m, so if you place a long horizontal beam in the middle and build up to it, it should get you quite close.
Then i would say around 4 normal wood beams, 8m
It really seems like its more to me π€
i'm building the spikes on stone wall instead of earth wall
Spikes are only 2.4m in length
From tip to back they are 2,7m iirc
So annoying to try to build something nice , spend 1h + in it, and just delete everything cause nothing connects ...
i think this is their longitude
and this is their length
If it is, the wiki has it written incorrectly.
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Stone_structures
It is written correctly here, Length x Width x Height
i haven't been in engineering class in too long i forgot the name for the bottom of the right triangle
https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Sharp_stakes
The format here is the same you'd think.
Did you not utilize snap points? π
"sharp stakes must be built on dirt"
oof
I was going to mention that π
Tbh i am not sure if the order of numbers is consistent with the stone structures page π€
I would hope so, it's the standard formatting for measurements.
I did, the plan with beams on the ground checked. The floor checked. Once I tried to connect to beams up to make the roofing, nothing go.
Was trying to have a nice semi circular balcony out of my room, I have a really nice spot with a scenic view, but couldn't do anything with that part
I'm sorry I'm really not clear on what the issue is, perhaps posting screenshots/clips in #building-tips ? I would give some advice there with a better idea of the problem.
Thanks for the help, but after all that, i'm kinda tilted and just erased everything π
Ah, well I always say everything's done better the second time!
Hopefully you were able to learn something from that build.
I'll try to make a not so bad plan on paper, i think you'll get the point
Mosquitoes are scary π swamp next to a plain biome
Luckily they are very low HP.
They are definition of glass cannons.
they come in a straight line, which can be heavily abused once youre comfortable with it
try using a spear/bow to easily kill them before they can hit you
we'll see that, i have to cross a plain to get from an empty swamp to another one ^^
which staff is best in ashlands=
I'd like to say: Preference
But realistically probably ||Staff of wilds and Trollstav||
But why not experiment and see what you like.
why the first one? I read the description and it seemed weak but i might be wrong
Tbh I haven't used it much bc by the time I got to ashlands magic had me feeling real disengaged, but the vines it spawns are pretty strong. Do hella damage and you can have multiple at once
The staff throws a projectile that explodes, then spawns a vine
The stats show the damage the explosion deals, which is essentially harmless and useless. But the vine spawning after does big damage
And vines also root enemies sometimes, making them unable to move or turn (which means you can go behind them and hit them and they can't retaliate)
||Staff of Wild|| and Frost staff combo is pretty nice.
ty
Dundr my goat
staff of wild scales insanely strongly with elemental magic skill
at max skill the roots do like 200 blunt per thwack and are active for 20 seconds
Staff of the wild imo is one of the best weapons in the game, you can also afk level ele magic to 100 now...
anyone got a spare vile trophy I want to make the armor?
Anyone could just spawn themselves the trophy and bring it to you without you knowing. I would advise you to earn it yourself or just spawn it in for yourself on a fresh character if you don't care that much.
Oh how do u spawn yours self in stuff? never heard of it
Ah, you need to enable console, press F5 to open the console, type "devcommands" then "spawn [item ID]"
There is a list of item ids on the wiki, or many other places you can find on google.
Be aware though, using commands does brand your character with the "Cheater!" tag in their stats.
It currently does nothing but indicate you've cheated, but if you don't want that, just keep that in mind.
Help with what?

I encountered a 1 star Drake yesterday and was playing without mods. Wasnt a raid either. Anyone know more about this?
Look up afk Ele magic blob farm, you put poison blob to trick melee skellies to attack twigs
Before I uninstall this game for good, can someone please tell me if there is any cheat, any mod any something to fcking raise and level the ground man, pardon my language but god I just can't do it
The hoe and pickaxe do exactly that, can be crafted very early on. But if you find it a bit janky then I'd imagine there's mods that would make it quite easy, I've seen it as a frustration for a good amount of people in vanilla
Ask in #mods-discussion and they can probably help you out
You can use the hoe and pickaxe, up and down a max of 8 meters
I use the hoe and pickaxe, I am using cheats, that's how low I'll go just to get a base of my liking and I want literally nothing but a raised and leveled platform but I just can't get it right
It's just so terrible, I have no fcking clue how to do anything that won't just end up ugly asf
Why is this game like this? Why can't I just raise it in a proper symmetrical and leveled manner?
you can, its just tricky and you need to learn how it works.
i struggled with leveling for years until i spent time to properly learn it
I am sorry man, I don't have it in me to spend years, I just came here because I figured, before I uninstall this game for good, maybe try a little more, find another way
If there is no way but to struggle then, well, it is what it is
it doesnt take years to learn it, took me a couple of youtube videos
Stand at one place and level everything you can reach perfectly. Then take a few steps in any direction you leveled but stay on the already leveled ground and continue. That will achieve perfectly level ground.
I need to raise first, don't I? Because I want a raised platform
what i do is build support beams touching the ground every few meters to see if there are any small differences in elevation that cannot be hoed down
Yes, or you can dig everything around to make it lower
you sometimes need to raiseground and use pickaxe for the smaller bumps
and cultivator if you want to stop the branches and stones and mushrooms from spawning on the ground
Yep, but you can see those if you stay still and just move with the hoe indicator around.
Yeah, I know how to raise and level, problem is, it just doesn't work right, it's always fixing this and fixing that and fixing this and after an hour I haven't even done half the work
And if you want perfectly leveled ground NEVER hold shift while doing it
I don't even know shift is for anything other than running in this game, see, this isn't gonna work, this is too hard to learn how to do right
Best solution for this is to go from one side and dont go around fixing this and that. Start in one corner, make perfectly leveled place there as far as you can reach. Dont move even a little bit untill you do so. Then you continue without stepping of the ground you already leveled and know is absolutely flat.
And after that I need to raise it which is another hell and atleast what you said I tried and was able to do somewhat, raising is just impossible to get right
If you want i guess i could try and show you in VC π€
I appreciate you offering that but I am really bad at games, and I cannot stand lack of symmetry and angle, I don't think I can do this unless there is a mod that just does it for me.
Just ask in https://discord.com/channels/391142601740517377/1202934289898151966 there probably are some.
I also dont like unevenness, but leveling is really not that hard once you get the hang of it π
I hope I could say the same but I don't have the patience to keep practicing and ruining the map like I have been doing so far, for hours.
When summoning the elder does he spawn on the altar or outside it and comes towards it?
Think it tends to be a bit random
He'll spawn somewhere nearby, either on the alter or just outside it
Probably more likely to be on the altar
Tbh more often than not i had him spawn off the altars platform itself π
Been a while since I fought him
Here it looks like half on altar half off #memes-and-clips message
is there a higher possibility to rain when building larger structures?
No. Weather is predetermined
ok. thanks
My Eitr Refinery doesnt seem to be working
