>>2360230Watched 30 minutes. Its just a bunch of lame ass streamers promoting their bullshit and introducing each other. There is no information about the actual game here.
more slop on the 25th?
21st, 23rd, or next week on the 28th or 30th
Kinda crazy how different and yet similar the game is from the alpha. Lots of changes, but the core is still there.
>>2362092
>>2362094I love seeing early iterations of games, models, soundtracks and ideas in general like this.
>>2362100
>>2362102https://streamable.com/pmz8f8>Burning greydwarf eyes in the fire makes a portal to world spawnI wonder how different the devs' ideas for the game were at the time, and what else has been cut.>Spears are just throwing spears>Depleting your stamina bar means you must wait for it to recover completely before you can do anything that uses stamina>Stone pickaxe (that can't terraform and swings like an axe)>Draugr instead of skeletons in meadows and black forest crypts>No weight limit>No parry>I really wish I knew how to enable the console, if it's even possible in this build. I'm not tech savvy enough to figure it out on my own, and there aren't exactly any easily found guides out there. I want to look under the hood and fly around.
I have never posted here before, so maybe you guys already know about all of this, or don't care in the first place. I just feel like sharing in case others are curious like me. I didn't play the game before the Steam release.>>2362111Turns out the console is just the chat menu. Very limited commands, but you can spawn items and mobs if you know their names.>ForestTrollHonestly I think I prefer this look over their current colors. I remember having to rub my eyes when I first spotted one on my first playthrough. This look would've made that moment even more special.
>>2362897The regular Troll and 2 star version is also in the game at this point, but they're called>Troll>ForestTroll>RedTroll respectively.
>>2362901The Elder is the only boss in the game, he functions almost identically from what I remember of the current build. I haven't played since Ashlands.
>>2362911However, instead of dropping the Crypt Key, it drops an "Elder Heart", which permanently increases HP from 100 to 125. You are much less squishy in this version as food is only healing, not a temporary max hp buff
>>2362921Oh, forgot to mention it also drops ElderBark, which is Ancient Bark today. Swamp trees just drop regular wood.
>Neat horned helmet>2 unused iron axe variations: Rusty and Dragur[sic]>Chisel and Adze as equippable tools, though seemingly without function
>>2362911While The Elder is the only boss in the game, there is an entity called Deer_god. It is not hostile and drops regular deer loot. Possible very early Eikthyr placeholder?
>>2363150>Iron can be found as Bog Iron in the swamp that you just pick up>Can also me mined in the Mountains>Both of which gives you Iron Ore>Far south you can find Meteorites that you pick up, but instead of Flametal it drops a bunch of Iron BarsMan, that would've made Iron so much more tolerable to farm lmao
>>2363224And some of these sprites are pretty soulful
>>2363270Okay I'm done spamming now. I did it mostly for myself as an outlet, but I hope some of you enjoy this as well.
>>2363270Pure soul.
>>2363278very cool alpha posts.I was actually going through some of their old videos the other day.https://youtu.be/o-Sjj-3H-rshttps://youtu.be/kTHqJ1LWs70https://youtu.be/NMS8rprH32ghttps://youtu.be/oNx-9YsOpBohttps://youtu.be/BSrJRrlVQII
>>2362897I think this stuff is neat but I'm OP
>>2363121i need this hat, they should let me craft this hat
For good measure I went through the .obj files.There were some somewhat interesting models in there. For example I didn't notice that The Elder altar had different statues in the alpha. >Corgi>Rabbit>Deer>Ancient SeedIn the modern build they're all ancient seeds>>2369873Nice. That "Running on logs" video is part of what convinced me to buy the game. I love niche stuff like that>>2371821They should at least not have removed it from the game entirely. I can see why it was removed, with the horned viking helm myth, but it is neat still. I'd be happy with just spawning it with the console commands
>>2372305And there are three models for the dragon head on the Longship. The left one is the one used in the current build. The right one is in the alpha as seen here >>2363278 The middle one is entirely unused from what I can remember or tell.
>>2372335There are also these, which kinda looks like POI's? Idk know if all of these are placeholders or something. I vaguely remember hearing about that spaceship looking thing, but IDK if anything is known about it. I can't tell how big these are supposed to be either, but in any case they all go unused
>>2372352And lastly there's this one, which is a bit more interesting. This really looks like a POI, and it even has a modeled interior. That's all I can dig up. I can't find the folder/archive for stuff like the stone cutter and forge for example, so there could be cut stuff in there as well, but that is beyond my abilities. Honestly I'm surprised I got as far as I did.
During the alpha, the top left image was the loading screen. I looked through the Steam release build, 0.142.6, and found the rest of these. Named>loading0 - loading9So at one point it seems they were planning somewhat random loading screens instead of just the troll and vikings in combat.Sadly however, these are the full size images.
>>2375627>Sadly however, these are the full size imagesExcept this one ofc. This is the full sized one found in the alpha.
Speaking of the troll loading screen, here's the full sized one. Seems in-game it applies a blue filter, and partly covers the top and bottom of it.
>>2375627>>2375636pretty!I wonder if they were supposed to change based on the biome you were loading into?>>2372352huh, i can kinda see the plains tower, ashlands castle, and mistlands ruins here, but that's with hindsighti also remember seeing the spaceship mentioned before in a video that was digging into the game files>>2372370this kinda just reminds me of burial chambers or some other kind of dungeon; maybe a scrapped plains village?
>>2380706>huh, i can kinda see the plains tower, ashlands castle, and mistlands ruins here, but that's with hindsightYeah, could be a very early rendition of those ideas, or just placeholders to give the others an idea of what they could do with them. Or complete coincidences lol.>this kinda just reminds me of burial chambers or some other kind of dungeon; maybe a scrapped plains village?Could be anything really. I think it looks a bit advanced for fulings, gives me more black forest or mountains vibes more than anything. But who knows what early ideas they had for Plains. I guess it's worth noting that it seems to be completely open world, as in there's no obvious entrance portal to a basement or anything like that that I can see.Whatever these are, none of them survived until the Steam release build (except the spaceship thingy for some reason)>I wonder if they were supposed to change based on the biome you were loading into?I can see it. But speaking of biome specific screens, there's these. Correct me if I'm wrong (I haven't played in ages), but they do not appear anywhere in the game, right? They could also be a loading screen idea, or probably more likely a background image for a journal entry for each biome
>>2382150Oh btw if they look familiar, and they're not in the game, it's probably becaus you've seen them on the fandom wiki biome pages
>>2382155Fun fact, in the alpha there's references to "deep forest", which is probably an early name for the black forest
>>2382159
>>2382161
Note that the filename for this one is "Heath", an early name for the plains>>2382162
Ahh, the now lost Mistlands... I really liked the old look. I like the current one as well, but this one with the skeletons and the spider webs, the oppressive darkness etc. really gave a horror vibe that the game now lacks. I wish they at least made a mini biome for this specific version of Mistlands, like a medium island on the world borders.>>2382166
>>2382178And lastly the Ashlands, though it is very uninteresting. Ashlands has been in the game for a surprisingly long time actually, it was already there in the alpha. That probably means they've had all kinds of ideas they've considered and never went ahead with.
surely there will be some news before May...surely the game will be in 1.0 before the Switch 2 release...
Is Valheim fun if you're by yourself?My friends work much more than me so I'd be playing by myself probably 70% of the time
>>2399986It was fun for me, had a blastCouple years later and me and my friends managed to organize a game day, and is fun with friends tooIts a bit of a different experience
so... any must-have mods lads? in a mood for some vikingkino
>>2402969I am always rawdogging it in vanilla.
Last pieces of cut content I can find.Most intriguingly is the combination of >damage_heat.png>Sun.png>SunProtection.pngand >Sandstorm.pngThose are damage and status effect icons. Correct me if I'm wrong, but even damage_heat goed unused, right? Do you think it could be an early idea for a weather effect in Ashlands? Given that Ashlands has been in the game forever, I can certainly see it. Guess we'll never know.I seriously did not realize the Draugr archers are female, until now. Anyone else? Just me?>nostroke.png>ShipMaterializer.pngWonder what these are. I seem to vaguely remember that you can spawn a longship using console commands, that sits on land for a few seconds before it automatically drops down and becomes a regular ship. Could be that, I suppose?
>>2402969valheim+ had mostly everything, i also installed an arrow fix mod that basically made even the base bow somewhat viable and a Z axis mod that let me swing at things that weren't on my plane, but that caused issues with mining those big iron scrap piles. also there's a model changer if you have a vroid you like.
news.https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/892970/view/508485755865138114?l=englishtl;dr, boss romance was april fools, val-con was cool, meatballs and drawbridge.
>>2408099I genuinely hate that they are so carefree about sharing """"teasers"""" all the time. I wish they didn't share anything specific like that. Those aren't teasers, they're spoilers. Modern games do this all the time now
>>2409250I don't think it's humanly possible to share even less than they do now. You want them to go from two screenshots per month to one?
>>2411049For me personally, yeah. I wouldn't need a single one at all. I've already bought the game, why would I need to know what is upcoming before it's here in full? I don't get excited seeing this stuff early, I get frustrated because discovering it for myself would've been much more enjoyable. I've never understood why someone who is already hooked on a game needs to know, it's not a ""live service"" or anything like that.Mind you, that's not to say I disagree with them sharing it for others. I just wish they didn't share the stuff in big ass pictures for all to see on the thumbail, even those who do not want to see. Hide it in the post itself and lead with a more generic picture. I check for news about when to expect the update, knowing there's drawbridges now takes away from me finding out organically.
>>2411474>punch a rock>new recipe unlocked: drawbridges!literally doesn't matter. you discover them before you build them.
>>2411697Disingenuous argument. I think you know what I mean, but since you disagree you don't care.And it goes beyond buildable stuff. I'd rather get ambushed by a bear without knowing it was a thing, but since they just plastered an image of one in their news post that was taken away from me.
I love this texture
Huh, Munin was already in the files in the Steam release build. Wonder why they made him white. Probably to differentiate them easier at a glance
>>2429525probablyidk why there's even a need to have two of themlike yeah odin canonically had two birds, but there's no real reason to have more than one tutorial bird
>>2405989>ShipMaterializer.png>>2372352>I vaguely remember hearing about that spaceship looking thing, but IDK if anything is known about it>>2380706>i also remember seeing the spaceship mentioned before in a video that was digging into the game filesI guess I found the answer to these. This is one of, if not the lead, dev of Valheimhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_01TlgD1JXo
>>2438334>valheim but duneGIB

>>2442038getting a real outcast vibes off this
>>2442038>We've captured a command post
So, so excited to build my ice castle when they launch deep north.
are we back? can the game run on the switch?
>>2424285Neat
>We are entering the final stages of development for the Deep North,>First of all we want to let you all know to tune in to the PC Gaming Show on 7 June, as there might be something pretty interesting happening there from a Valheim point of view.Is it a real life?
anyone played this?https://youtu.be/ScPTAG49Q8Ahow is it
>>2522077Looks interesting. Where do I get it?
>>2522163https://discord.com/invite/UWGnJ4HvY6discordniggery that's why I hesitated
>>2493618iktf
This game is pretty good, how fucked am I if i do no map no portals for my 2nd playthrough?
>>2522163>>2522252Here is the linkhttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1057073425245552640/1511195961525928026/RPG_map_final_update_hotfix_4.zip?ex=6a218ca9&is=6a203b29&hm=f404b85579f1a2a9c20f395b3bdb7e27722db717e63d381fdffb42bf3e077cd7&
>>2541073you could do it with no fast travel and just your memory to go off its more sailing and hauling and you will be getting more intimate with the landscape and landmarks
>>2545711thanks for the effort butI can handle discord but the question is, is it good?
>>2541073it's doable, it just depends how masochistic you arebuilding landmarks at major and minor points of interest that point you home is not a bad idea, and like the other anon said, you'll be spending a lot more time sailing back and forth.it might be worth it to rush iron as fast as possible (with the birch chair glitch to get into crypts early) so you can build a longship ASAP

>>2563825I wonder what's the deal with that portal at the end of the trailer
>>2563825>moose mountHell yeah
>>2563825I hope they make good on adding new stuff to each of the biomes like they said they would. Which also includes the ocean.
>>2564241I mean the end?valheim point is it ain't valhalla, it's a purpurgatory I would assume that's the portal to valhalla, aka you finished your rehab
>>2564241your instanced boss arena
>>2563825oh shit
serpent plushie real
why do nordics have such great concepts but then fail to execute on them in a timely manner, dragging it all out for years?
I miss when this game was good...
walled up my scenic black forest gorge riverbend hilltop now i hate it
>>2728908you wanna post it?
>>2733879there is a lovely stream down there beyond the wall. it's a shame
>>2372305>Corgi
>>2686010sw*des
Less than a month left.
pvp?
>>2788963Probably one of the devs had a corgi at the time>>2837667Valheim is one of very few games that manages to capture the feeling of actually being in a forest to a certain extent.
>>2844384I love black forest at night.
>>2844416Same. My favorite biome is either black forest or mountains, it's a toss-up. Both are just oozing atmosphere. Mountains I usually bring enough resources to make a base and some food, then I live there for the next several hours. I never use portals, so when it's time to go there it feels like an epic adventure to me, living off of wolf meat and stuff.I love this game so much
>>2844416I enjoy the atmosphere of the black forest, I'd love to have a permanent base there if not for how absolutely obnoxious the greynigs are. And no, spamming fire everywhere is not a solution because they still appear and run around like retards while occasionally throwing rocks.>>2844540Good taste. I love the mouintains and will always try to find a good spot there when I start a new world. If an area is high up, relatively flat and has no drake spawns then that's a jackpot. Bonus points for nearby silver veins. Best biome in the game, it's all (literally) downhill from there. Deep north looks promising and might even overtake the mountains as the most comfy biome judging by how the snow piles up and the fact that there are large snowy forests.https://youtu.be/HVrps9Oat90?si=7JBPBfIs7vVVTh-X
What are youre pipe dreams for the game?It would serve little function, but god I wish the game had a similar climbing mechanic as BotW has, where your character can grab pretty much any surface and scale it while losing stamina. I love climbing in games. At least the game has some physics defying jumps when sprinting and such though.Also, AI is getting kinda scary
>>2852976Being able to dig and build underground. Better terrain manipulation in general.More precise aiming so that machicolations and arrow slits like in that sloppa could actually work.NPC viking clans that you can fight against or recruit to do chores and repairs around your own base.
>>2852976UI that is not complete dogshit.
>>2852976Being able to use resin as a way to water proof wooden structures. Jesus christ how is this still not a thing outside of mods, fuck you I should not have to brave the plains and the tar pits for this shit
what's the verdict on building stone walls in ashlands? want to do at least an ashlands landing before the update so i can say goodbye to this old save
>>2860091any pair of enemies there can chew through stone pretty quickly, and grausten is only a bit tougheryou could manage walling an outpost with it plus some maintenance but earthworks and trenches will do you better if you can set that up in good timeoutside the forts it's tougher holding ground without spawn proofing the whole immediate area
>>2860091Terrain walls or bust. And even those can get destroyed by blobs. Stone gets destroyed far too quickly to actually defend you so building stone walls is purely for aesthetics.
>>2862517>>2862643that's unfortunate. didn't want to resort to terrain walls because it looked ugly and it seems more inefficient compared to just dropping a bunch of stone walls, not to mention i'm going to do the landing solo
>>2862757I just do layers around my base so blobs can only damage the outer perimeterA bad morgen and its over thoAlso btw blobs can destroy the terrain
Is Ashlands still retarded? I know they nerfed it once, but I didn't feel much of a difference when I played it. Me and my brother had to turn the difficulty down to normal because we were getting our asses handed to us by the constant spawns. It was such a hueg spike in difficulty compared to the other biomes. I hope Deep North won't be like that
>>2863294It's still retarded but at least somewhat manageable if you're prepared with the best armor and food you can get. You'll want to upgrade to the Ashlands tier gear asap.I think they said Deep North is going to be a similar in difficulty rather than yet another bump up. I assume you'll either go north or south after Mistlands depending on what flavor of rape you feel like enduring.
ice fishing soon
Is it worth upgrading my bronze pickaxe or should I just push the progression further? Is it worth upgrading in general?
>>2872937Bronze is never worth upgrading, the pickaxe especially is a complete waste of materials. The antler pickaxe can mine iron and can be repaired with just a workbench, better to just use that until you have an iron pickaxe.I'd only upgrade tools for the most part. Silver armor and up can be worth upgrading, any armor before that is a waste except maybe the root armor.
>>2852976That the devs start working on a sequel once they're done patching and fixing bugs with Valheim's 1.0>advanced AI for enemies and friendly NPCs>water physics you can manipulate (divert rivers, block waves with levees to protect your harbour)>caves and underground biomes>add to the building system with more toys (like gizmo for a start)>magic (whether spells, enchanting, whatnot) is a core feature from the start>more options when generating your world (archipelago, continents, pangaea, specific resources drop modifiers (ie abundant ores but rarer trees) etc)>revamped skills with more impactful difference from level1 to 100>actual Hardcore mode with a Hall of Fame listing your past characters and what they achieved/died to>good mount controlsto name a few, I could go on and on. Unfortunately I keep hearing that the devs just want to move on and do their own thing, whatever that is, once 1.0 is launched.
>>2873228I would also like more vegetation/rocks prefabs.I have to pull all the tricks to make environments feel fresh.Most of the rocks are the same mesh scaled differently.
Think it's worth starting over for 1.0?I do have almost 200 hours here and haven't even beaten the Mountain boss yet but I'm concerned about screwing up the generation of future terrain
>>2885844Unexplored zones are automatically upgraded.You shouldn't be missing much since you're still on route to Moder.There are mods like Upgrade World that can regenerate all zones while preserving the ones with player built structures (always backup the world first).That said, the only thing you may be missing is the new mini variations they'll add to biomes. Which should be happening at some distance away from center, if I recall right.
>5 years of development in EA>1.0 update>no additional content for the ocean at allLazy fucking devs man.
>>2891744What kind of update do you envision for the Ocean?
>>2903443Giant squid.
>>2903443Something to do there at each stage of progression rather than just starting at the Black Forest and effectively ending at the Swamp.After the swamp the wishbone could detect shipwrecks while you are sailing and you could use Silver, crystal, gunk and bloodbags to make a diving mask that unlocks the ability to swim underwater to get the loot from them. They could have underwater mobs guarding them, and food items you could gather from the sea floor.Plains could have crudely built Fueling raiding ships occasionally attack you after you collect your first Fueling totem. They could drop loot or pieces of maps that eventually lead to a Fueling buried treasure horde. The Mistlands could give you access to a boss fight if you equip the wisplight in an ocean thunderstorm. They could give passengers the ability to play a little rowing minigame to help speed the ship up.These are all just spitballed ideas off the top of my head. So surely the developers of the game could have come up with literally anything at least that or more creative if they gave a shit. But they have admitted that they don't.
>>2903921Good god I want that passenger rowing idea to be real so bad. I'm tired of being boat pilot and having to spend 70 years without a sail because the broskis and i don't have Moder power yet and we're going into a headwind. It makes me want to jump into the ocean irl
>>2903921>>2908612Rowing seems like such an obvious thing to add to a fucking viking game, it was like the first thing my dudes and I tried to do once we got our first longship. But no, instead all of us just sit there doing nothing while the helmsman gets frustrated by the wind that always seems to be against us.Ship customization should be a thing too, let me attach my shields to the sides and change the colors and patterns of the sail. Maybe even add fishing nets that we can pull with our ships to scoop up large quantities of lower tier fish that appears near the surface while the rod and higher tier bait would be needed for better fish.
>>2743934looks kino since you bothered to make walkable battlements
Praying Odin for the update to be good.
>>2918291Here's hopingSo far looks better than both Mistlands and Ashlands
>>2918387I can't wait to datamine the new stuff and find new fields to exploit for vanilla compatible action.
>>2918291your offering of a cozy base will not go unnoticed
Debating if I should do a 1.0 replay. Last played on mistlands update.I really liked the building system but combat felt bad.Every biome plains and after just felt more and more frustrating.
>>2922396combat has improved in that there's now adrenaline trinkets that give you temporary bonuses after filling up your adrenaline meter (which is filled by parrying, dodging, blocking, and striking enemies)vertical hurtboxes for the player's weapons were also vastly improved so that fighting on slopes doesn't mean you'll miss your swing 90% of the timei would highly recommend turning on the setting that allows ores through portals, and also increase the drop rates if you find yourself burning out by the plains. all you're missing out on are lengthy runbacks via boat while the wind fights you, and grinding materials
Does anyone else not get a whole lot of trinket value? I can barely ever get mine to trigger, and that's only vs horde events, or against something with lots of hp like a boss
>>2924106I haven't properly played around with the Call to Arms update, but that was my assumption about them since I heard about the patch, that they would rarely be useful or if they ever did activate it would be because you are in such an overwhelming situation that they wouldn't even help you.
>>2925051The magic ones are very useful, at leastHavent played much with others
>>2903443Atlantis type zone with proper swimming mechanics that let you dive underwater.
>>2925051Ones that would be pretty strong conceptually basically never trigger, like the +50 stamina one you get access to in the swamp, the bracelets of something or other. Very good on paper because an instant injection of stamina lets you keep dodging or attacking, except whatever you're fighting usually dies before you can fill the meter, or is so dangerous that you have to back off and let the meter start to empty before you get another window of opportunity to attack. The only way I could see getting actual use of out of these things is if you're under-geared weapon-wise, but at that point, why not just used an on-tier weapon and kill the enemy, instead of hitting them 20 times with a wooden weapon to get your trinket to trigger to get a bonus that helps you kill them? >>2925109I haven't gotten to mistlands magic yet, maybe the frost staff will help trigger trinkets, cuz otherwise idk. I've been using fists because I thought the rapid attacks would fill the meter faster, but I've just been mowing through everything with my flesh rippers.
looking forward to tomorrow broskis.
we are about to be raptured

My shit's at a choppy 45fps with everything on low and at 50% resolution scale.
Just a few hours more, bros.I'll be missing gizmo, planteverything, and the other qol mods until they update.
It's time to return to the Vikings' Purgatory. Got some questions. Do we know if Deep North will be an alternative endgame zone, or will we need to clear and get upgrades from Ashlands to even stand a chance at Deep North?Do we know whether they will balance/rework earlier biomes or all they are adding is Deep North content?Are they implementing popular mods or high demanded changes, like separate inventory slots for your gear, or it's more of the same?Best/most favourite build and weapon combo?
>>2928266>Do we know if Deep North will be an alternative endgame zone, or will we need to clear and get upgrades from Ashlands to even stand a chance at Deep North?It was said you can start going there early, but will need better gear to delve deeper.>Do we know whether they will balance/rework earlier biomes or all they are adding is Deep North content?There were mentions of some biome variations being added. Details unclear.>Are they implementing popular mods or high demanded changes, like separate inventory slots for your gear, or it's more of the same?It looks like it will just be extra slots. Allegedly bought from vendors.>Best/most favourite build and weapon combo?I like swords because of the anim cancel combos.Knives can also do some good damage, but you gotta get close and personal.The builds depend on what stage you're at.You can go fast (and die fast on higher biomes) with fenris set.You can shrug off pierce dmg with root harnesk and some barley wine to offset fire weakness.Mage builds come so damn late you'll be dealing pathetic damage unless you grind or at least incrase skill gain rate through globalkeys.Huntsman bow still best for silent sniping as I doubt anything in the update will change that.
>>2928266>Best/most favourite build and weapon combo?Fenris set + crystal axe or krom. I really hope Deep North has a greatsword upgrade that doesn't look like shit. I don't like how comically wide the slayer is so I just kept using my krom in the Ashlands. The one handed Ashlands sword looked really nice, wish the greatsword was just an elongated version of that.I did upgrade to flametal armor, so much shit spawns with stars that I can't rely on parrying, especially not with a Mistlands tier weapon, so being able to tank hits felt like a must.
PANIC
welcome to the cum zone
It's happening, huh.
Killed eikthyrYou get a little cinematic if you go to sleep after killing a boss, then the ending has a teaser of the next biome
I only started to play after ashlands wasa out.Do I need to make a new world when a new region launches?
>>2928729If you haven't already explored the area, no. Unexplored regions will get updated so you can keep playing on the same world if you want
How buggy is it? Should I hop in now or wait for hotfixes?
>>2928753Seems fine to me so far. This game has always been pretty good in terms of bugs so I don't think I'll encounter many any time soon, if any.
if you guys are curious what the spoilered achievements are...https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/42764-valheim
MY SETUP BROKEI CANT PLAYFUCK FUCK FUCKFUUUUUUUCK
combat on hard and no map is the 100% achievement run?
well i have to go do emerald flame now...did they nerf ashlands enemy spawns again?
>first thing to meet me on the landing was the new trollholy kek he has a strong throwing arm
i don't need this radial menu...how do i sheathe on controller now ahhhh
There's no way copper veins were this huge.
>hammer gets a new UI with search and shit>workbench is still a messGreat job. Have they spent all this time making cinematics?
That's a big hole
Better place your first portal in a rock when reaching the Deep North, some nasty stuff can be waiting in the shore..
did they add 2x2 crystal windows so I don't have to use the shitty 1x1s that leave a massive seam around their edge that you can't see through if you want to make an actual window
>>2929867>>2929999nice digitsshould've just gotten a troll to break the surface layer of it for you thoughyou get like a stack and a half of copper from doing that, and it takes like 2 minutes>>2929891I don't like the new hammer UI, I had already memorized where everything was and now it's all in different menus
Is there a 4chan server
>>2930697god I hope notit'd be full of zoomers with cheated characters griefing everything for a 1 second dopamine hit
craft from containers works for you guys?it doesn't grab all items for me
>>2931063[s]it wasn't that bad when we had one in /coopg/ when ashlands got released [/s]
fuck it, i just forgot how to use spoilers
>>2929102>did they nerf ashlands enemy spawns again?from the patchnotes, yes
>>2930502>you get like a stack and a half of copper from doing thatI dug it all because it looked suspiciously big. I ended up getting 130 copper, just from that node. Literally more than enough for one guy's fully upgraded weapon, buckler, pickaxe, axe, and a bronze helmet. I assume they heard the butthurt playerbase complaining about the copper grind and changed it. No need for carts and stuff now, find a vein, camp next to it, dig it for the next one hour, or 30 minutes if friends help, then grab tin and leave the biome.Also raids on Hard mode suck dick.
>Start a new savefile after not playing for 2 years>Play on hard for the achievement>Sleep in a random cabin because terrain around you is dogshit>Day 2>"Eikthyr rallies the creatures of the forest"Thanks for the welcome wagon I guess.
>>2931494If you can survive, free meat delivery
/vm/ server for the new update? I haven't played this game in like over a year, but playing with frens sounds fun
>>2931610Flint spear is surprisingly effective in the Meadows. Even in Black Forest you can easily solo three greydwarves.
>>2931772Hard. No map. Double resource gain. Coming right up.
I've never progressed past black forest.I started a new save file.I can't decide where to build my meadows base, I think mostly because I don't understand how sailing and hauling materials to/from boats works as you progress later.do I need my base to be on the beach? is it better to have it on a slightly off-shore island at that point? or do I just need to be able to move things from boat chest to a wagon to haul to my base that's a bit more inland?
>>2932075Generally, near ocean, on a beach is the best spot for your first base indeed. You can further optimise this, if you are into that, if you put your first base at a meadow/black forest border. Easy acces to meadow/dark forest stuff, and you can brin back your first copper hauls much easier.
>>2932075>>2932097dont build right next water at water levelstorms gonna raise water level and you gonna need to repair your shit from water damage
>>2932160so my base should be inland.and I just need to be able to get my boat close enough to move from boat storage to cart storage?
>>2932164you can easily find a small hill near the shore to build onuse a hoe to make a path and flatten the terrain for easier transport
>>2932160I always build right next to the water. I just raise my foundtation so the water dont interact with my stuff.
>>2932198i like having basements
Do items despawn? I dropped this basic cloth armor and it's still there days after lol
These new 67 degree pieces and stone fences are fucking great, I love them
anybody tried making a base in a ring around the spawn?
>>2932289fuck, I just had to double check, it is 67.>26>45>45-26=19>45+19=64>67>SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN!!!
>>2932274Yeah but not if they're within range of a base structure like a workbench. Just toss your trash in the ocean if you don't have Thor's garbage bin yet
>>2932459>Just toss your trash in the oceani'll pack it with used cooking oil and empty batteries :^)
>>2932451And just like that, you ruined it for me, thanks.
>>2931429>bronze spear>bronze pick>bronze helmeto shit niggyr what are you doin
Achievements stop tracking with mods?
>>2931953flint spear can unironically last you up until the swamp. it's cheap to upgrade, spears level up faster than any other weapon, and the rapid hits means you'll be leveling it faster still. it's actually beneficial to not upgrade to a new tier of spear until you get to the mountains, just because it still kills everything else quick enough, and you want to be using a weaker weapon to grind the skill up
>>2932274according to my sources, they despawn after 2 in-game days if they're not near a base structure like a workbench, campfire, or a number of other buildings that prevent enemy spawns within their radius. You can actually see the edge of your workbench's radius if you have a building piece like a wall or roof selected with your hammer, and walk directly away from your workbench>>2932465technically they're 66.667
>>2932638yes and thers already a mode to disable mods being disabled by mods
Now this is an amazing trinket
thats not something you wanna see in front of your first dark forest
trolls are real
>>2932780you can absolutely bully that thing if you've got a torch in handthey love to get stuck between two trees, which allows you to build a campfire under their ass to roast them alive
are playthroughs substantially different now with 1.0? Or is it basically just the new biome? Want to know if it's worth reinstalling but if progression is no different and old biomes didn't get new content dont think ill bother
>>2933446parrying doesnt eat stamina
The server browser in this game is dog shit
>>2933446I think they added biome variants so the far away places are at least slightly different.
are you supposed to parry if you want to play melee combat in this game?
>>2933992yes. skill issue. the parry window is quite lenient in the game otherwise the tower shields are there if you can't be assed to parry, they tend to have a shitton of block defense so you just bother with dodging unblockables.
>>2934046is everything parryable on hard?
>>2934159i haven't played hard. some enemies don't guarantee hits/stagger even when you parry so you're better off dodging or play the spacing game, the bossfights are an example since they tend to hit hard and can go through your parries.
>>2932637>bronze spearAn upgrade over the flint spear, effective against trolls that rustle my jimmies, great single target that kills onestarred greylings in 2 hits, and I'll use the axe against bears and Elder.>bronze pickThe durability of the deer antler pickaxe is turbo shit, and by making a bronze pickaxe means I'll have to postpone making an iron one till I'm done with swamps and ready to move to the mountains. >bronze helmetA placeholder because I've massacred 20+ bears and I still didn't get a trophy. And I need 2...>>2934159>is everything parryable on hard?Depends. Your parry threshold scales with your current max HP and your shield/buckler stats. So most of the times it's not about the difficulty scaling, but rather if you ate properly and upgraded your buckler.
>>2933992dodging and spacing are important too>>2934159not every attack from every enemy, and it highly depends on the parry bonus and block armor of whatever youre parrying with, your parrying skill (stat), your defense, your hp, and how much damage the attack doestl;dr most stuff is able to be parried, with the right prep>>2934532you can get similar mileage out of the flint spear without wasting copper...the antler pick is better than the bronze one by virtue of it being able to be repaired on-site at a work bench, instead of needing to lug around forge materials, or portaling back every time it breaks. you don't even need it to mine scrap piles; yet more unnecessary bronze usageyou could use an upgraded deer or troll helmet/hood... you can also get a bear trophy by breaking haldor's bear rug if you've found him
>>2934568What's this obsession with saving copper? It's not as rare as people make it seem. In all my playthroughs I rarely needed more than 2 full copper veins. I usually find one or 2 that are close to the sea, make my camp in between copper vein and the sea, and I'm done with it. When I have to move away, I put everything in the boat and sail. If this is about copper being more than a chore in co-op because the whole party's cost is multiplicative, that also means that I can pass down my old weapons to them. So when I'm bored of the bronze spear, I give it to my friend. Or not every party member needs a maxed out bronze pickaxe, or wants to mine ore at all. >you can also get a bear trophy by breaking haldor's bear rugOk this is epic. The question is, do I finish my berzerk 3 piece set first, or make the trinket? With the spear I won't be getting the +slash dmg anyways... I could cope with the hp regen trinket but I dunno, these ones are new to me.
>the corner of my deep north base had its terrain reset and trying to change it just resets it again shortly afterwell thats fun but could have been WAY worse
>>2934593>What's this obsession with saving copper? It's not as rare as people make it seem.it's not rare, but it's a gigantic pain in the ass to mine, and a bunch of stuff requires it: forge upgrades, mead casks, the karve, bronze axe, any bronze weapons, upgrades, sconces, not to mention how certain late game items needs a boatload of bronze to craft and upgradei'd finish the armor set first since the stamina bonus is so helpful. trinkets kinda take a looot to actually activate, and there's better ones very soon after in terms of progression. the bear trinket just gives you stamina regen when it activates anyway, which is what you'd be getting from the bear set, without needing to jump through any hoops to get it.
>finally got through the elder>now have to deal with the steel grind all over again
>>2934626Guess it's time for me to get oneshotted by a bear or troll, playing on hard and having the phys weakness debuff will make it spicy. I'll finish the set and craft the HP regen trinket then.
Is there a mod that lets me stack trinkets? Like wear multiple at once.
>>2934593>What's this obsession with saving copper? It's not as rare as people make it seemNobody thinks it's rare, it's pretty abundant, but it's fucking annoying to gather large quantities of it. Mining copper takes forever even with a troll, and you mostly get stone out of it.
>>2934655why? so you can not-proc more than one trinket per fight?
The Early Axes are awesome. I would recommend any returning player find a seed where they spawn at POIs near spawn and grab them. I don't know if they hold up in the Swamp but they rape everything the Black Forest has to throw at you. You don't need to craft a single bronze tool or peice of armor if you have them. Antler picks can get you copper, tin, chitin and iron from muddy scrap piles.
>>2934666Yes. I just want to wear all my bling at once.
>>2934690If you change trinkets and proc it you will keep both buffs. Good luck, it's hard enough to proc one.
>>2934684They look to be almost on par with Abyssal Razor, which are fine into plains.First hit the axes are faster, so fore a one tap they look to be better, but they lose out even in a 2 hit combo.You deal 1x, 1x, 1x and then 2x damage on the 4th combo hit right?Without having tried the early axes yet it seems like it's a difference between5% movement speedAbyssal can take up a shield, but then loses the movement speed differenceYou might get early axes even fasterno split damage so better aoe for the axesaxes better against bonemass and golemabyssal better against trolls and loxesSeems like a good early game alternative
post ore deposits
crazy how much shit got re-bugged
>>2934713With how they buffed dodging it would be close, but I think being able to carry a Bronze/Iron buckler might have the Abyssal razor winning out because of the ability to get the repost damage.
thundering zerker axes not replaced in deep north lol, such a disgusting dps powerhouse
do ores not disintegrate when you disconnect them from the ground?been chipping away for 30 minutes and this thing is still floating
>>2934876yes but its connected to the ground in ways that will upset you so hit whatever looks closest
>>2934884
>bought deep pockets OOOH AAAAA UUUOOOHHH
>>2934742>>2934876
holy shit turn off screen shake for the final boss, felt like I was actually having a seizure and I found the option in the cripple settings
>yesiuseddevcommandsbutiwantmyachievementsanywayBased.
since when are these fucking rocks invincible? i just wasted 20 iron thinking that bronze pickaxes weren't enough for these things
>>2935485You didn't waste your iron, you will need an iron pickaxe for the mountains anyways. If you made a bronze pickaxe you wasted bronze because they aren't any different than antler pickaxes besides the damage they do and the durability they have. Bronze picks are more of a pain in the ass to repair too because you need to travel to a forge to do it rather than just a crafting table. Bronze armor is also a total waste. Troll armor suits you fine in the swamp until you get iron armor.IIRC those rocks have always been invincible. In pre EA versions of the game those rock formations were meant to be fast travel points that you had to use because you weren't able to build your own portals. Thankfully they scrapped that and those rock formations no longer contain portals, but they left them as indestructible for some reason.
>>2935458big if true>>2935485do they even get hit for 0 i thought they were always totally inert like the swamp statues
>>2935485your repairing costs materials? that sounds awful.
is mp still as laggy as it was?
>>2935543i thought they could. then again i never encountered building around these things on my pre 1.0 world since my base there was on an island.>>2935545no numbers, just a grating "klang" sound>>2935598>repairing shit costs materialsthis should've been a modifier>copper and iron would be the most expensive stages of the game>less demand for silver >starts to even out on plains but you'll need a dedicated plains base to farm black metal>everything is free in mistlands because caraprace is easier to come around compared to plains>constant lava runs in ashlands forcing you back to mistlands gear and being forced to conserve resources by not using ashlands set
Why would I spend 30 more seconds on 2-3 trips for bronze when I can spend 3 hours building a bridge to dark forrest and have the return trip be shorter
would you niggas consider a compass mod, simple bearings, to be cheating in nomap run?
>>2935935yes.I plan on adding landmark posts to point me in the direction of my base to some of the islands while sailing around.
>>2935935yeah 100% it is cheatingbut you also don't have to play nomap if you don't want to, the clout ain't that good
>>2934786such as?>>2934876the connection hulls for the ore nodes that make up the entire ore vein are cubes, so it's still connected to the ground somewhere
>>2935935yes, because you should be using the sun to determine north(the sun rises in the east, travels across the south sky, and sets directly west)
>>2351999the map viewer sucks assspecifically it's unoptimized as fuck
Anyone using RenderLimits mod?Don't think it's working yet, but maybe I just messed up the configs.
>>2936017what do you mean? there's default settings to increase/decrease render distance now.
>>2936077Yeah but the default setting isn't very good even on max settings.
>>2936114my only real problem with it is doing anything on the beach or water causes a lot of stuttering if you have it set too high.
>>2936139Tested all of the other settingsincreasing Level of Detail also really helps seeing stuff far away
skeleTON surprise.

>>2936465your tree is falling over.
>>2936480Just aboutWould be neat with survival game with with more realistic wind physics, where a strong wind could make some trees snap and fall over.
>>2924106It'd a useless bloat system that adds nothing substantive ot the game
>>2936491Need a mod that removes trinkets, and instead adds special attack moves that you spend adrenaline on
>>2936489that kind of stuff really only happens after prolonged periods of heavy rainfall.t. woods inhabitant
>>2936539I imagine this hypothetical survival game would have rainfall as well
>>2936465I still wish it was made in the cauldron tbqh, idk why they decided to split mead crafting into a new pot
>>2936754I like more functional crafting stations, and crafting station add-ons, even though it makes packing for my no portal game more difficult. Makes the base feel more lived in.Like a preparation table for bread instead of boiling dough in the pot.What I had on my boat when I got back to my base.For longer trips where I set up a new base it gets more cramped, with stacks of as much materials as possible for all the crafting stations.
black forge crafting list is utterly fucked, food stations getting there too
>>2937265haven't been north yet and trying to avoid spoilers for the most part - do you need the ceramic ship to sail up there like you do for the asslands, or is a longship enough?
this copper deposit is blocking a dungeon entrance lol...
>>2937289Longship is enough
>>2937289its enough but the ice chunks will fuck your shit if you arent careful going in on a smaller boat. ashlands boss is soft required.
I need recommendations for public servers
why is my crossbow able to chop trees
I keep revisiting my old worlds (that I'll never continue), and I'm struck with massive hits of dementia since I don't recall them at all whatsoever
>>2937546ok something's fucky... when I load into an old world with an old character past a certain point (pre-bog witch I guess), it generates a new world instead of loading me into the world I had... rip that save, I guess... :/
>>2937559strange, I entered an old 2021 recently world and it was as I left it.I needed a crypt key for a quick test, so I stole it from my 3rd hardcore attempt.I was hit by some rough nostalgia seeing my old base.That character died in mistlands trying out magic for the first time.
>>2937569I ended up entering the next oldest world with the corresponding character, and it loaded the save fine (still after the "generating" loading screen)I guess I just... made that world, but never entered it? Which is weird, because that character was kitted out with plains-tier stuff. I think that maybe I was testing him out years ago in a different world with cheats enabled to try stuff out, and then decided to make him a world of his own, but never ended up using it.On a completely different note, this showed up in my sidebar, and it looked interesting.https://youtu.be/wRaF4r-pF7Q
did they change how common berry bushes, mushroom etc. are? i swear every time i step everywhere i have pockets full of forage, at least twice the usual amount
Damn, the armor moulds just wont drop

>>2937686don't think so, you probably just pathed into a bunch of them by coincidence
This new hammer menu is special olypmics tier retarded.I wouldn't mind learning a new ui if it wasn't for the fact that every time you get new shit, everything changes position. I fucking swear UI designers are the second most worthless pieces of human garbage in game development, right behind hr dei officers.
Finally founded Elder vegvisir and it pointed me straight into the ocean. Fuck.
>>2937809classic
What was the mod that allows you to aim your melee up and down? Does it need to be on the server or can I run it local only?
>>2937825I used https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/lashiernexusmodport/Slope_Combat_Fix/but it hasn't been updated in 3 years and I only used it in singleplayer, so no idea how functional it is now
>the 1.0 endgame grind is 3% drop chances and korean MMO style gear upgrading where if it fails the gear is destroyedwhat the fuck were they thinking
>>2937822based schizo scribble map
>>2937755i hate it tooim tired of reddit shills telling me "trust me bro you get used to it, it's actually better"
>>2937825>>2937830Figured I might as well test it real quick.It still works.Tested by standing on top of a stonecutter and aiming down, with the mod I could hit it with skoll and hati, without it I couldn't.My first person mod no longer works though.
>>2937853Thought maybe I'd get used to it as long as I set up favorites, but the problem is that I can't control the order of favorites.I need to place things really fast, but if I add more stuff to the same favorites tab, the order changes.Yeah I can make more tabs of different favorites, but then that gets back to the same problem where I have to click through a bunch of tabs again.I play this game a lot and don't use many mods at all, but a UI mod might be necessary after this for me unless they fix it.
can i get qrd on combat in this game?sometimes i parry a skelly and its fine, and later i parry the same kind of skeleton and it stunlocks me? is it so random?
>>2937870Based on your max health(1), your stagger bar(2), block power(parry bonus if you timed it correctly(3)) and the damage(4).(3)So maybe your timing was perfect the first time, so your block power got multiplied to handle it, and your timing was off the second time.(1)Or you had less max health, maybe you went with more stamina food.(2)Maybe you had just blocked a bunch of times in quick succession and your stagger bar filled up.(4) it could've been a skelly with 1 star so it dealt more damage
>>2937870Your parry value (weapon block force x parry multiplier) and max health determine what you're able to parry. If you suddenly can't parry the same enemy with the same weapon/shield then your max health has degraded too much and you gotta eat again. Two health foods and one stamina food is what I'd recommend.You should generally be fine if your current gear is from the same biome you're in. Two handed weapons, fist weapons, and small shields all have good parry values. Bronze buckler or a bronze atgeir is good enough to parry trolls, except for their overhead slam which does too much damage.
>>2937870>>2937874skellies have different tiers besides the stars, their eye color and stats change based on the biome
>>2938046Can you show me that?
>>2937870parry is based on your health.don't listen to him >>2938046 they're the same on all biomes>troll raid during captchafuck
>>2938052>>2938062just go to a swamp and you'll see they have blue eyes when dark forest skellies have orange eyesblue eyed skeletons are tankier I'm pretty sure, not by much but still
>>2938089You can't show me
>>2937831ive spent the past 10-ish hours farming [new mob] for the pants while watching youtube and it wont drop, I have 7 chests
>>2938096I'm not gonna drag my ass to a swamp to screenshot it for you
>>2938099fair enough, next time you see them please screenshot them and record stats
is staggering an enemy based on damage?
>>2938161Yeah physical and lightning damage specifically.Some weapon attacks do more or less stagger.Like the alternate attack for 2h axes deals more stagger, same with alterante attack for atgeir.2h axe alt attack is like 400% stagger, but it's only 50% normal damage so more like double stagger compared to normal attacks.Maces have good stagger, but Frostner deals a lot of Frost damage which doesn't stagger.
>>2938190the power kick attack for fist weapons is 600% stagger, and they have generally high base values with no movement penalty and huge crit multipliers. best weapon next to daggers if you can parry and dodge like a demon.
>>2938235Seems pretty goodfor every character daggers has been my highest skilled weapon, except for one where I forced myself not to use them, but now that there's at least 3 fist weapon maybe they can be pretty food thanks to that staggerI've never tried to use fist weapons though, for my next mp character I plan to go all out on spears
>>2938253fenris set is a power trip, you just run super fast and punch hard which sucks to eventually give up once you get stat checked on armor
>>2938253I would like to play spears but they are too retarded in this game since they are more like javelins than spears
>>2938259Fenris leg pieces are becoming standard for me.Part of why I like daggers so much is being fast anyway.I play a lot of hardcore, so I've never gone full fenris and dashed into mistlands, but it's been tempting.First time they added the caves the fenris gear and fist weapons went to my buddy, and I could see someone just sticking with Fenris all the way to the end.Not sure if they've added a 4th fist weapon, but feels like there's room for a blunt fist weapon in the game.
>>2938303My very first character I wanted to go spear, but dropped it when I saw what it was like.Ended up going atgeir and sword, and experimenting with dagger.I've since read that people did use spears in that way, but from what I've seen the range shouldn't be so shit even with an overarm grip, like you let it slide forward in your hand.So I wanna give them a proper chance.They're fast, they have no combo, but the initial hit is quite good, if I just throw them a lot they may end up feeling quite good.Like going into plains and having 3 silver spears on my toolbar, throwing the first one while moving forward and attacking with the next one while picking up the first one.The attack speed might also be good for the lightning version in Ashlands.I also saw some speedrunner use spears, which kind of suggests maybe there's something more to them. I still think I'm gonna prefer all the other weapons, but in multiplayer I'm more comfortable using something stupid.This tiermaker is from a while ago, and I feel like I couldn't even rank spears at all since I gave up on them too early.Maybe too harsh on 2h axes, but they did disappoint me. At least they don't have -20% movement anymore.
>>2938332The only problem I have with Valheim is that the weapon skill investment matters a lot, but also the game pushes you to switch weapon classes at every biome. Spear for the first 2, then mace for the third one, and if by any chance you want to try another class, or in some cases a new weapon class, and I start from zero. And if by any chance you want to pick up the spear again, after the death penalties your spear skill will have dropped 30 levels. I want to try the iron two handed axe in this playthrough since it's a new weapon for me as well, but why the fuck would I use an axe at the swamps when every mob and the boss is resistant to slash damage...
>>2938332they are a lot more usable since the buff to attack hitboxes but still poop tier range though that's most weapons in this game
>>2938364the damage types/resistances and the skill system do kinda clash like thateven in 1.0 I still feel a bit like valheim is half-baked in a lot of ways and it's disappointing to see how little things have changed since EA launch
>>2938364>I want to try the iron two handed axe in this playthrough since it's a new weapon for me as well,Actually that one has been there for quite a while.I think it was there even from the start, while they added the crystal battleaxe late in 2021, and then 2 more battleaxes last year.>but why the fuck would I use an axe at the swamps when every mob and the boss is resistant to slash damage...I think you worry about it much.The skellies are so weak they die fast to even daggers which are half pierce, half slashing.Slashing is your best bet against abomination, Sure they're worse against bonemass than iron mace and sledgehammer, but so is everything, and even then they're like in the 2nd tier above the piercing weapons.Me in the back with battleaxe, root harnesk and dvergr circlet.I went axes last mp game, but after plains I felt they were too awkward and I didn't want to be a weak link in mistlands and ashlands, so I grinded clubs against Elder(had a bunch of standard clubs and probably padded armor so could face tank) and made a Frostner. I did solo iron trips and looking for roots by myself with the battleaxe and it was good.imo they should've taken the speed penalty down to -10%.Since they've added more battleaxes after the crystal one, maybe it's more viable going full on axe in Mistlands now.Ashlands got the dual wield axes too which seem great
>>2938399>for me as well,oh sorry I can't read, new for you, not new in the game
>tfw you finally finish digging out a suitable trench defense for a full full full sized base in Hard mode>and you can piss off into the Forest and get back to FOIGHTING ROUN' THE WORLD!The things you do for Meadows / Plains adjacent start.
>>2938332why is knife > axe?
>>2938576because it's much better
>>2938582I can't get it to feel good unless I'm sneaking, but that's too slow for my style.am I missing something?
Axe is my main weapon because it saves space to have a tool and a weapon in 1 slot.
Need a new house with space for future workstations. I'm thinking L shaped with small attic to stuff upgrades out of sight. Would it be better to flatten the hill first or start building on top of it, with support poles where needed?
>>2938589just run and hit themwith superior speed you can also move away from attacks very easily without even dodging
>>2938613I like building without terraforming for my first house, but after that I terraform.
>the wardrobes near the underground dungeons in the Deep North sometimes have the armor mouldsWTF
this is gonna take some time
Anyone getting bad framerate in Deep North?Been playing on a dedicated server with 4 friends and performance has been fine in the past with even all 5 of us playing. Maybe 20 minutes after we got to Deep North the framerate was dipping to single digits for all of us so we had to log off. Even when I go back there solo it's pretty stuttery and really drops to 15 when shoveling.
Friendship with the Berserk set has ended. +20% more damage from hard mode and +25% more physical damage from the 3 piece set, is too much for me. Elder oneshots me, a bear can oneshot me, trolls oneshot me.
>finish building a house>hate it>demolish all and rebuild>still hate it
>>2938889fucking hate when that happens. that's why I just use plain walls while building and if I like it I bust out the walls and make windows and add trim to all the other pieces.
>make this stupid alternating pattern with 1x1 corners>halfway through think it's gonna be a bitch to make windows and doors>fuck it, gonna be worth it>it makes ZERO difference visuallyi love being autistic man
>>2939047with stone you can play around with the patterns but yeah wood doesn't really show it
>>2939047could place wooden poles between them for some definition
ok, fuck having a nice roof, i went under 100 wood and interior is empty
>find altar with 1* pig>kill most of the other ones>fucking skeletons outta nowhere>clean up calcium merchants>ok now finish the last pig anon, kill the one without a star>load an arrow and put it right in the 1* pig on autopilotFuck dude, I looked around the entire starting continent and only found this one upgraded piggy and now it's bacon.
holy shit the fandom wiki is unusable trash now, the ads completely bypass ublock origin
>>2939434There's an official wiki now, but it doesn't appear on google search yet: https://valheim.weirdgloop.org/
>>2938364>why the fuck would I use an axe at the swamps when every mob and the boss is resistant to slash damage...aren't they resistant to pierce, not slash?
>>2938613support poles are cool, but you may run into trouble with the roof being supported if you build like, a skyscraper
>>2939334another one will eventually spawn anon... maybeI think if you turn the difficulty up, there's a higher chance for starred pigs to respawn
>>2939452thank you so much anon i really mean it
>>2939334If the altar is a boar stone it will respawn another handful of boars.
cool, never seen one of these dungeons with multiple floors. I'm in the Dark Forest, one of the skeleton tombs.
>>2939497boar stones do not respawn boars, boars simply respawn in the meadows, and some happen to respawn near boar stones. boar stone spawns are a one-time thing that happen when you get within 60 meters of the boar stone
hoping there's a /v/illage one day
>2 star boar>but also the understanding that I'll never need the meat or scraps to bother tamingShould I just do it anyway? It would have to chase me quite some time back to my base but once it's there it's never ever going to die with my fortifications.At the sort of...1/3 way point of Black Forest currently.
>>2939678Boar meat is still very important in the swamp.
>>2939678leather scraps are important if you want to make poison bombs in any capacity (you do, they're great for helping clear fuling camps and damaging groups of enemies in the 3rd to last zone, because they're resistant to physical damage
>>2939678Do it because it's fun, otherwise skip.Like if you spend a lot of time in a base just messing with buildings, then it's nice to have renewable base food at home, but realistically it's not really worth it to pen most animals.
Anyone know if the auto breeders where they drop babies down into a pit still works in 1.0?
>>2939778I don't know, but they probably should work. Don't think they've reworked spawns to nerf that.
>>2939678I have never bothered taming things outside of chickens.
Guess I'll go stuff the breeding pens past the trees in that really meadows big rock formation so I don't have to hear that shit and I can build some roofs off the rocks so nothing can get in.Big ole indoor breeding farm for every animal.
>>2939861I think asksvin felt pretty useful to tame.
Is it the sea serpents that spawn at night or in storms that despawn when their spawning condition ends? (day, or clear skies)
you know it would be really cool if the achievements gave you any information about your progress towards them.
losing it
>>2940235ur great hall is looking good anon
I wouldn't make my friends try no map no portal, I feel like that's more for a chill solo adventure when you're basically a nomad.I've wondered though if you'd get a /v/ server going, no map, no portal, and hardcore, and you kept the server going for months.Maybe it could be interesting and people would get far, since people lose equipment there'd be benefits to building up backups.Maybe some people burn out and then new ones replace them.Would be fun to build on.
>>2940283I foresee many beelining for important loot and then deliberately killing themselves to griefI think the highest penalty for death there is without deleting loot from your inventory, the hardest combat, and maybe the highest raid rate would be better
>>2940283it would either be impossible to find resources because of hardcore deleting stuff or you would have people sneaking equipment on to speedrun it
seems like they completely destroyed the game for controller users. The UI is completely fucked and building pieces move way too fast now. Anyone else having these issues? Also, most UI mods are bricking the game for me yet
>>2940323TFGH is my WASD and the shitty new radial wheel that can't be taken off G is absolutely fucking my shit up. I hate it
>>2940327it seems like block is being fucked with due to the radial wheel or something. Like its the same button on controller as block and it just spams instead of holding when i press it
no map run has me thinking really hard about how the fuck anyone is supposed to do the new deep north mechanic under those conditions
>>2940329the block is separate from the radial on controller for memy biggest issue has been hide weapon becoming an alt press command
>>2940327not being able to rebind certain things is so annoyingi've been wanting to put Ping on mouse5 for ages instead of having it bound to mouse3i had to make an AHK script that did it instead
>>2940308https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/World_Modifiers#Death_Penalty
>>2940470>https://valheim.weirdgloop.org/w/World_Modifiers#Death_PenaltyDamn, normal death penalty it is then
I'm thinking of building my base on top of the elder's arena, but it's kind of in a shit location
im thinking of building up my deep north base a bit more but its fucking bugged and the terrain just resets so instead im gambling my gear until that burns me out
>>2351999lol wut
I'm getting sick of this game's shit. what's with the the metric fuckton of enemies constantly harassing you at any given time? gammeltrolls, those centaur motherfuckers from the dungeon, an army of greydwarves and skeletons, moose, and those overgrown walking frozen trees, all vying to be first in line to absolutely rape your ass. I just want to explore unperturbed for crying out loud. fuck this game. I would complain about the grind, but that's just par for the course. at least they made it straightforward this time, and it's in fact less of a grind when you get right down to it. gammeltrolls --> petrified tissue --> bloodgold --> casts --> cooled via liquid ice put into the foundry is at least better than having to wait for sap extractors to pull some eitr out of roots and then wait for it to refine. that's TWO levels of waiting, fuck that.
>>2940662at least it's not the ashlands...
PSA: Get a troll to do all your copper mining. You can get three copper node's worth in a day, if all you do is get the troll to break the exposed surfaces of the copper veins. It's so much faster than excavating all the terrain and then trying to break all the copper.Works for collecting heaps of wood too.
>>2940662monsters are attracted to noise so if you are chopping trees of course they will show up, especially at night. however compared to release ashlands I felt quite bored in the deep north wondering where the fight was
>>2940662https://valheim.weirdgloop.org/w/World_Modifiers#Passive_enemies
is there an intended way for fighting hexen?>crossbow is slow and takes 5 shots>bow is impossible to hit with its velocity and them sperging around>lol flying mob lol melee>you can parry their spells but it stuns them IN THE FUCKING AIR AND THEY JUST FLOAT THERE STUNNED>magic is GAY and has no reliable projectiles>faster than you
>>2939452>>2940479>>2940752what is this website why is it a repost of fandom?
>>2940755it's the new official wikifandom wiki is full of advertisement cancer now
>>2940754hit them with the crossbow from stealth :)MAGIC IS NOT GAY
>>2940775whatever you say dress man who wont fight his own battles
>>2940754>>2940775Parry them with the crossbow. Then Oneshot. Also use a not shit-cross Norse XBow like a real viking.
>>2940788xbow doesn't have enough block power to parry
>>2939678>>2939678>>>/wsg/6232972luring boars is fun
>>2940834jej
Pigs making the same sound when they're born, as when they're killed, is trippy as fuck
>>2939678>>2939861Taming is fun, what's not fun is transporting tamed animals.
>>2940308>I foresee many beelining for important loot and then deliberately killing themselves to griefYou could grief loot regardless of settings in an mp server
>>2940883>what's not fun is transporting tamed animals.First time I transported a boar it exploded due to the collision of the boat while touching the sides of itdespite the jank I still find it fun, maybe because of it
>>2940917exactly, so why bother with the setting that's going to make the loot even more scarce?
>>2940952>exactly>negates your entire point
>>2940958it enforces my point - you literally aren't capable of thinkingif people are going to grief anyway, making loot scarce, what is the point of turning on the setting that makes loot even more scarce for people who are just playing the game normally? there is no reason, unless your end goal is to delete all the loot from the world as fast as possible
>>2940963Retard, if you have a dedicated griefer who takes the iron and then dies on purpose to delete the iron with the hardcore setting, or a dedicated griefer who takes the iron and throws it out in the ocean on purpose to delete the iron without the hardcore setting, you're left with 0 iron regardless.The problem at that point is no longer the setting, it is the griefer, and you are arguing against the setting which is pointless because it doesn't change the hypothetical outcome of the griefer, you are so fucking stupid you can't even remember your own argument, your brain so badly beaten into mush that your distaste for the setting forced a post hoc rationalization instead of just voicing your preference.
>>2940975the setting deleting loot makes it the same as if there is a griefer chucking loot in the oceanit is a zero sum game, how are you not getting this?
had to make a small platform for adze because legse were sticking through the ceiling lol
you guys are fags and argue about fag thingsjust make a server and if somebody is a cock just for the sake of griefing, ban them

>>2941013Greyniggers are quite possibly the most obnoxious enemies I've ever dealt with in a game. I fucking hate those cunts like you wouldn't believe.
>>2941013>>2941026I think the game would be improved immensely if they had a special animations for grabbing your carrots to eat them
>>2941026I swear they broke spawn prevention because my island house with zero open areas for hundreds of hours suddenly has them crawling out of floorboards
>>2941026they remind me of swarmers in DRG, which ironically don't swarm you, they just trickle in endlessly forcing you to stop paying attention to whatever you were doing to deal with the ankle biter>>2941028I wholeheartedly agree>>2941029I read on the wiki that when you reload an area, whatever spawn prevention measures you have placed (crafting tables, campfires, etc.) will not prevent spawns for a few momentsit could also be that you simply have some gaps in your spawn prevention net and they're wandering inside your housealso check this out guys, i got this all from a single crypt:
>>2941045Breddy gud haul. I think my record is around 25 or so cores from a single tomb.
>>2941113I had something like that crash my PC during the summer while playing multiplayer a few years ago
>exploded my level 6 berserkir axeswell shit.. I actually kinda feel sad about those, they carried me through so much
>>2941137idk what they were thinking making a gacha system that can destroy your equipment for upgrades
>>2941147not only that but the idols are kinda rare so if you want to roll something up to like 10 against all odds it would take days of chest scrambling which is a limited resource
>>2941137>>2941147>>2941149by the time i get to north, this will get fixed or modded out, thanks for beta testing cucks
>>2941164the system is usable at mountains if you get lucky, seemingly spawning closer to moder altars
there appears to be plains attached to my elder island
>>2941028>get back to base>see a greyling sitting down in the fields, eating carrots>see him in real time grow into a proper greydwarf>look to the left and see a troll lifting up your fermenter to chug it
Is ranged worth levelling when playing single player?Just unlocked my first reach weapon, the spear, and I feel like this will mostly do what I would want to do with a bow which is to kite dangerous enemies in circle. Without the downside of running out of ammo/using additional inventory space.
>>2941272Without spoiling too much: You will want a bow eventually, but don't worry about leveling.
>finished dinner>hoarding copioius amounts of wood and stone for later>listening to mommy asmrDoesn't get any better on a sunday.
>>2941272if and when you do get around to leveling your bowA. make a finewood bow, do not make a crude bow. the crude bow has a significantly slower draw speed than any other bowB. use wooden arrows. the damage difference between them and other arrows you have available is negligible. you'll find tons of flint arrows in burial chambers and meadows chests anyhow, so you won't need to craft more for a bit
>>2941357Not sure if it's really spoilers but the enemies in the last 2 biomes do copious amount of collateral damage and terrain destruction for infinite raw materials. You never need to farm for mega contruction projects if you survive till then.
>>2941379Need crude bow to get finewood. At least intended way.
>>2941394you can find finewood by destroying old boats that sometimes spawn on shores in dark forest (maybe in meadows too?)
>>2941394you do not need the crude bow to get finewood
i caught on of them geydwarfswhat should i do with him
>>2940952what's the difference if they take the item and move it off the server through any of the various methods, like deleting the character or putting it in another server's storage?
carrot anon, you can speed up grow time by sleepingdo whatever shit you want until noon and go to sleep, repeat and your plants grow twice as fast
