#Valheim #Tips #Tricks - Hry
If you're looking for the tutorial videos I reference they are in the video description and on my channel 🙂
Great tips!! I wanted to add that in the guides tab on your steam launcher under Valheim, there is a great guide that lists all the console commands plus, a whole item spawn list. The one I found was by Sonata named Console Commands, Creative Mode, Item Prefab List
When fishing and you have one hooked, run inland so the fish is on the floor, itll stop moving and u can jst walk up and grab it.
@@ikitclaw7146Thanks 👍 Great tip as well!!
Instead of burning food for charcoal for the smelter early game when you don't have enough cores, you can just build the charcoal kiln first and stock up on coal. Then destroy it and build the smelter. It takes the same amount of resources to build them
"stone, a recource difficult to get"
me: chucks stone away every 2 minutes
I had no idea. I’ve dropped more stone than I care to think about. I’m sure I’ll regret it soon enough.
If you accidentaly press your boss spell button, jump as soon as you notice your fatfinger-mistake and you will cancel the animation and save your spell for using it later on purpose
Thanks for all the tips, here's my contribution ^^
Good
I've watched several tip videos and this is the first time hearing a tip or trick that was not a basic game mechamic. Thanks!
underrated comment, cheers mate!
Another tip I found recently is dodge roll to quickly disconnect from a cart!
Thanks
LOVE This tip, it's making my next video and you're getting a shoutout! :)
I am being spoiled with tips today!
Thank you :)))
this tip is literally better than all the tips in this video XD thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The scent carried by wind when hunting deer is amazing detail, can't believe only 5 people creating this masterpiece
Uhhh the scent is bullshit.
@@pogtuber5146 nah fam its dope af
@@just_HAZEN there's literally no scent mechanic. You can sneak up on a deer downwind no problem right from the start of the game. You can walk just as close to it regardless of wind
I kicked a deer in the butt first day I played while downwind. I just snuck up behind where it couldn't see me.
@@pogtuber5146 i don't know what game you're playing then, anytime the wind goes with me the deer spot me instantly
6:20 you can also make a charcoal kiln, get the required coal and then break it to make a forge
I did this the first time I had enough for one
I feed the kiln and make massive amounts of charcoal and then I break it down and make a smelter.
When chopping trees, you can use your body to roll the logs into other trees via momentum damage. I was able to do this early game with Beech colliding into Birch to get logs I didn't have access to at the time. With mining, if you dig around the rock to expose the entire thing and then destroy the bottom, you will SHATTER the entire boulder and collect the resources as a whole.
Now that mining tip is pro.
Gotta try that
Damn man that mining tip is greedy hahaha
@@juancruzzeballos938 yes, yes it is. but it saves soo much time and durability on your pickaxe :)
Wow, ty!!!😀😀😀
You sir did things I didnt think of..... noice. To mining Valhalla!
mark the map when you die, so if you die on the way to your grave, you can still find it, since the game moves the skull icon
Will the loot still be there after a second death?
@@newbiesama yeah thankfully it stays
@@newbiesama Yes
Just a correction, the belt doesn't give you extra inventory space, it gives you more carry weight.
very true! I misspoke
@@Kysen I just wish there was a way to get more inventory space 😂
@@SubjectE57 There is. The cart. 😅
@@ghostgate82 Dragging a loaded cart up a hill feels like Death Stranding lol.
@@SubjectE57 I think they mentioned something on their roadmap about the trader selling an inventory expander, maybe a satchel or something
Turning vegetation down to minimum makes it a lot easier to find foraged items, particularly red mushrooms
Awesome tip! I'm gonna use this in my next video and give you a shoutout! :)
I’m sorry but I’d rather my game look more immersive then it not look like the game lol
@@Sarin5.o I forgive you
Tip I just learned the hard way. When your corpse is being camped, empty your bag before going in, that way you only need hit the E key and run off. If you have items in your bag, both inventories open up... and mob kills you.
Go naked if possible. Important to pick up only food as you head back to your corpse and like you said, drop it all before making a run towards the corpse totem.
I just eat some food at base, then run naked and grab my shit. havent played the game for a huge amount of time, but have yet to die trying to recover my corpse naked.
Even naked you might not be able to pick everything up if you were wearing the belt and had over 300 capacity when you died so be careful of that too
If not proceed to mash buttons and swear profusely.
I do haven't seen anyone mention it personally, but when you get up to bronze age, I believe that if you upgrade your buckler a bit, you can start to parry trolls. makes them easier to kill if you get the timing right.
also, use your troll armor to explore, you get a sneak bonus and if you have abyssal knife, you can press middle mouse button during a sneak to do a jump attack to do massive damage, enough to kill a troll.
Pretty Cool ! thx for tip
I use the trolls to farm as mentioned. I use the shield to block the hits so I don't have to bother with rolling.
The abyssal one shots trolls? Hmm, knives are useful outside of hunting deer the fun way then.
Bronze level two shield will parry trolls. If you pair a parry with a spear you can quickly kill a troll even with a flint spear. Relatively quickly anyway
The various ruined towers that cover the land have tiny barrels outside the door, these are not just decorations, smashing them open will reveal their contents :)
I've gotten really good items out of those as well. Really, really random items from what I've seen in them so far.
Like what can you get?
@@AlrikMelania coal, animal skins, I forget what else. Good early game but I still hit em up
@@AlrikMelania Coins.
Never knew that either, I did not think I would actually learn early game tips, but here I am... Yall got a discord for happy Vikings. I need to bros to hill on Valhiem with.
To avoid burning yourself on a campfire, build a square from the 2m log beams or wooden half-walls and place the campfire in the middle. This blocks you from getting to close to the fire, but still gives acces to cooking and refueling. if you have a fireplace setup indoors, a single log beam at the bottom will do the trick.
When gathering plants, mushrooms and berries, go to settings and turn vegetation to low. This removes alot of undergrowth and makes resources much more visible
Tip: Fortification walls don't get damaged by weather, but gates do. Build a roof over them.
Thank you!
genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good for aesthetics too. A lot of gates in real life have roofs over them too.
pertaining to upgrading gear: when it comes to sharing resources with others on a shared map, especially if you have your resources pooled together, it's usually a good idea to upgrade with the stuff you gathered personally. most people won't begrudge you using the resources to make yourself gear at the new tier, but if you've never even been to the swamp and you've used 120 iron (and all the other mats that go into it) to make yourself a level 4 iron sledge, people might get salty. this goes for food and other consumables too. if you've never even picked up a cultivator, don't just take stacks of turnip and carrot soup (or fish wraps, or the other high tier stuff) from the food chests. learn how to make the stuff and if you take a stack of a type of food, at least make sure you place the mats for that item into a material box for the others that are with you. or here's my favorite. if you find a box with 8 full stacks of iron ingots and 2 stacks of chain in it, don't grab all that iron and chain and take it to another server and then wonder why the people from the server you took it from are unhappy. dunno, maybe that kind of stuff belongs in a manners vid.
lmao damn bro what kind of friends are you playing with? common sense and your friends dont get along
@@trollofjom7291 ngl, most of our group have played together for a very long time and some of them have certain bad habits, like assuming food comes premade or something or really they think the thing they are doing is so important to the rest of us that just taking the food is acceptable. but our initial server, one of the guys gave the password to someone he had played with on another server and that dude cleaned us out (that was the chest of iron and chains incident).
@@gary0044187 ngl thats kinda funny but fucked up at the same time lol. all you can do now is lay down the law and let it be known so that shit doesnt happen again
i mean your avi is escanor sooooo... live up to it lmao
@@trollofjom7291 changed password and told the guy that gave it out the previous time not to invite anyone again. replaced what we lost in 3-4 hours. in fact I think we cleared the 5th boss day after it and restarted the server so no huge loss. just got some knickers twisted. we're a group that has played together for decades. we've lost titans in eve and seen our cities torn to the ground in darkfall. it's all just games to us, life is so much more high stakes.
I do not recommend bringing a cart on your boat. Once it is loaded up and weighs a bit it messes with the physics and will most likely flip your boat in the middle of the ocean!
So just have two carts, perfectly balanced 😆
Never happened to me. Place it in the front under the mast and you're good to go.
Just destroy the cart while it's on the boat, and then you will be left with the boxes - no weight
1- you can stack wood and stone by letting them clip one in the other just a pixel away and have WAAAAAAAAAAY more then 10 stacks one in another.
2- Natural resources which are not rocks do regenerate over time. falln branches will reappear as well as berries and flint and rocks.
3- chests clips slightly one in the other, this makes you save space if you can clip them well
4- you can stack up to 6 roasters on a bonfire if you're accurate..
5- switching weapons according to enemies makes you carry more weight but also be more prepared. A bardache against a lot of smaller enermie makes you save stamina due the great AOE attack while weapon and shield are good against single enemies.
6- water trenches are your best friend and worst nightmare; if you want to make one, be sure to not fall in it.
7- palisades can host platforms which allows you to shoot from above
8- the totems are gold. With the totem a wooden structure can take up to 4 troll log atttacks without falling down to pieces, without you just lose the house in one hit.
9- seadragons can be brought onto land to be hunted easily but tends to return into water once de-harpooned. To prevent this and their free just drag them in a pond high enuogh for them to swim into and they'll go tho the next water spot which is namely the pond.
10- may be obvious but: never, NEVER, *NEVER* be without the well rested buff. You won't be able to flee or to attack. During night with cold means nearly certain death.
Glad to help ;)
Tip 10 is stealth or die.... But ya, Valheim wants happy, well rested, Viking Warrior....
4 is literally in this video.
@@lolpantsification yap, realized it after i wrote them :)
I use all my 100' s of beach seeds and plant a super dence forest in the meadows. Makes for easy domino effect wood cutting.
That’s pretty smart
Build it near a hill or canyon like thing. Trees will fall down this canyon all piling up st the bottom. Hitting many trees allong the way. (Can always dig one of those canyons)
Also have a plantation for pine and birch so can get core and fine wood at the base when required.
That's a great idea! :)
@@JimBananas No seeds for birch tho.
Best tip I've picked up: You can place floor panels ahead of you by placing a panel over the corner of the one you're on and moving the cursor forward - the next panel will snap to the panel below. I haven't tested it with beams, but I bet it would work there, too.
Best tip I've discovered: Wood and stone piles will clip into each other, so each additional pile takes up 1/3 the space of the first one, which looks a lot better than individual piles, too (expensive decoration).
Likely to be patched: You can place a campfire indoors on top of two dropped pieces of core wood. (c/o FireSpark81 on YT)
Personal preference: Carts make a great dump chest near the entrance of your base.
Biggest "Duh!" moment: Right click tools in your inventory to equip them. You kind of threw off as a side note that you can use tools from inventory, but I was swapping them in and out of the hotbar until about game day 200. I don't know why I assumed they were different from armor and food. You can also right click food and potions straight from chests.
Also bears repeating: Parry! Get that timing down. Skeletons and draugr are easy as boars, and it works on ranged attacks, too.
Thanks for so many useful tips! :)
Use 2 portals at home, one with a fixed name (Home for example), and one for which you can change names (I create a big tree like structure behind mine with signs to remember destinations).
When you establish a new portal far from home, just dial it to Home, pass through, rename the second portal at home with your chosen name, reuse the Home portal and give the final name to the far away portal.
This is a great tip. Using just one can cause issues. I generally have portals in each biome, but to get to a new place I portal through, then go on an exploration adventure. if I forget to change the name of the old portal am stuck in a new biome miles from the old portal and an inactive one I just built. Having a home portal solves this issue and can port home soon as you build a new one.
Brilliant!
I also have a tip for the copper deposits. I can't stress this enough, please do not only hit the surface, dig down and around the deposit, they can turn into huge excavation areas with at least 60 - 100 ore. Just in case you're struggling on copper.
Managed to get 120 ore from a single deposit site this way
@@GB-yt9sn That's fantastic news. The most I have obtained from one was 100. To hear of a bigger one, jeez, must've been massive as well.
Lol I been walking away from deposits with like 16 ore lmao. Really didn't notice any more vein, and 2/3 of the deposit is usually just stone. Do better pick axes gather more or something?
@@udalix You get some, where part is in stone. I've never found less than 60, at least after setting up the excavation site I haven't gotten less. The better pickaxes just make it faster to mine and they last longer when upgraded.
You don't realise how happy I am that I've found your channel, it helps me massively in Valheim. I even started watching your older minecraft vids but I never played nor will play it, that's how much I love watching ur vids. Keep it up man, very good work!
Thanks very much! :) I appreciate the kind words :)
When you're taking down those structures by popping down a workbench and middle-mouse clicking, if you just take down the bottom walls, the rest will fall down automatically while you're taking down the floor.
I call it the John Mellencamp move.
I just started playing this and its the most fun ive had in a long time. Funny how a 1gb simple graphics game can entertain me more than some large titles haha
More than most* Kind of exposes how shit the aaa studios in the gaming industry are right now.
Content will always win.
The game has so much to do
Ninth Gate here we are a year later and I’ve just discovered Valheim. This game is sooo difficult at times and sooo much more fun than I’ve had in a game since WoW. I am absolutely addicted to this gem of a game. It fits my playing to a tee. I’ve spent over 400 hours in it and am just venturing into the Swamps. I’ve died a million deaths, Trolls 😡, Drauger 🤬🤬. I love it!
To the portal tip: you just have to get away for the portal to close. The next time it opens, it is connected to the new location but as long as it "stays open" it will bring you to the old spot
TKS! For all these tips!
Bye the ways, I was able to grab fish with ''E'' when they are near you even tho there are not completly reeled in with the rod.
Friend of mine just let me in on a good trick for getting lots of coal if you only have enough cores to build either a kiln or a smelter, but not both. Build the kiln, make all your wood to charcoal, then tear down the kiln, and then build the smelter. Rinse and repeat. A lot faster than using meat for charcoal.
Totally agree with this, but note that there is a small chance that you won't get all of your materials back when you deconstruct the kiln (or anything else). I believe this is a bug so it may be fixed eventually.
@@graham1034 I believe it got fixed last week, devs put it on the patch notes has been fixed and not saw the bug since, thought I let you know
when using a troll to mine or deforest, its pretty important to use a shield and just block his attacks.
dodge rolling also works, though it builds no skills of course. Trolls are my friends.
Blocking something that big only nerfs the damage it does not fully block all damage..WARNING***
@@carlosallen5905 it blocked all damage then.
@@PettyClipper ummm...NO nerfs it, you are not invincible when holding up a shield ..you can parry a Troll at bronze shield level 2
@@carlosallen5905 you realize this comment is a year old?
I've found when mining silver (or anything) once you break a piece it'll show damage for connected pieces and this way you can see which direction the vein goes.
Oh god, you mean every vein goes under the ground? I just assumed i was unlucky cause i havent seen any big veins at this point of playtrough.
@@jannemakela8107 oh yes and quite far sometimes always worth it though. I managed to mine 150 silver from 3 deposit
@@GB-yt9sn The sizes can be quite big aswell and branch out... Got 170 silver from just one huge vein
Nice Portal Tip :) !
One thing I would recommend is having a spare portal at our base, then when you explore to far away lands with mats in your inventory, you can build a portal whenever you need to and get back home (you can rinse & repeat ) :) !
Yup. Did that yesterday, after getting stranded halfway across the world and having to rebuild the boat :)
You can also rename a portal and jump through immediately on purpose in order to leave your portal unconnected to portal back later.
Tip: get your "punch" skill high early game then take out the greylings/dwarfs with one or two hits. Saves on weapon repair when you are out exploring.
Works best following a parry
Nice tutorial. Straight to the point with zero mumbo jumbo.
Thanks for all the guidance. I can’t believe how much this game has me hooked😅
You and me both! :D
I didn't notice the wind affecting deer hunting before. Fascinating.
I googled it and people all said scent mechanics are actually not in the game.
Such a helpful video, thanks a lot! Love how organise your description is as well 👏
Thanks for these vids ive watched most of them as ive not long started playing the game and found your vids most helpful something ive just found useful is to when finding a burial chamber add a workbench at the entrance under the cover and you have a repair station while in black forest just make sure you can get in and out from the chamber
Be careful not to spook the boar.... *Places fire next to them sending them RUNNING* 😂
Hey now, I was showing what happens :D
@@Kysen haha I know 😋
Big tip I found is to use a harpoon for getting birds. It's really easy to fix and requires a low level workbench and is basically the same as endless arrows. One hit kills instantly and you have the trail of the rope trail to help in adjusting your aim for getting more accurate with your throws.
For the log pile, since you can clip them, you can actually stack them tightly enough that you can store the same amount of wood in the same space. If you clip them just right, it will just look like one continuous pile if you line up the overlapping logs.
The Smelter takes the Coal on the right side. Put a chest between the Smelter on the left of chest and Kiln on the right and you can pick up the coal when it comes out, put into the chest or directly feed the Smelter even if you are over burdened.
4:50 You could also stack the woodpiles inside each other if you turn them right.
6:20 You can also coal a lot of wood first, then break down the kiln and use the surtling cores to build the smelter. Works other way around as well, and any ores/coal/wood inside are also dropped.
"And dont forget to put on your christmas hats"
Well tell that to my 7th fully explored dark forest biome :))))))
I cant find the trader lol
Look in the ring of islands around the starting island. Majority of the time it’s on an island close to where you start
Man I found the trader on my third island. I found it before I knew it existed.
I had the portal issue happen to me, if you mess it up you can't connect to either of the other portals because they're connected together. A good way to keep this from getting TOO annoying is to have multiple characters logged in at different locations of the world to give you the opportunity to logout and login as a different character and rename whatever necessary portals
You just have a portal at the base labeled "help" or something simple. If you need to go back to base from a portal naming whoops, name a portal "help" and you'll be back in your base.
@@DWalter.27 at the time I only had surtling cores for 3 portals, I have a full array now
I solve portal problems by always having an untagged portal at my portal hub. A separate location from my main base.
loving the videos man as someone who just bought the game a couple days ago these have been super helpful!
Glad I could help! :)
So that's what the white arrow on the minimap is for. I always wondered where it is pointing to.
The arrow points in the direct the wind is blowing. Useful for sailing
That thumbs up/emote thing just saved my life 😂 I've been thinking I wish I could do things like that!!
haha :D
Just started playing this game. I can't believe just how many things you can do! Great videos, so much to learn here.
Thank you 🙂
With a lot of stone you can build a causeway over a wide river if you need to transport goods by cart. You can also dig out a dock for your ship & use the excavated stone to make an encircling wall.
just a small note at 8:02 - the 2nd boss is The Elder. Bonemass is the 3rd.
A tip I haven’t heard is that if you’re in the Mountain biome and walking up one of the grey cliff sides that make you slide even if you’re walking straight up there are areas with more white in them that allow you to stand and regain your stamina to continue going up. I can show this if it helps
You can place stone and wood stacks inside each other by rotating them about the yellow square's axis when placing and have essentially unlimited stacks in one pile
one tip I have is to place the 26degree peak roof above the wooden gates. the game treats those gates as normal doors so they need to be under a roof. placing the roof peaks and some logs to hold the roof above it 1unit not only makes the gate look cool, but the gate won't get damaged by rain.
At last, somebody to show things from the start..... I love you
haha thanks, glad I could help! :)
Man you have been a huge help for me in this game. You sir have earned a subscriber
2:00 If you hold right click and press space you do a combat roll which makes you invulnerable for a short time. I'm sure you know this, but it looked like a good time to use it
Great tips dude... quite a few I figured out on my own which shows I'm on the right track... Keep it up mate :-)
Keep your permenant inventory to the upper right. If/when you die and recover your items, they will be more likely to end up in the same spot. The game adds new items to the bottom left inventory first so it helps.
6:41 you can also just sleep if it's night, will turn all food on the cooking stand to Coal, I had to learn that the hard way
Do i need to make walls around my base in meadows? If its few minutes away from black forest? Can they still intrude or is it just for the looks?
If you want to cancel your crafting you click on the progress bar and that will stop crafting whatever item you just started.
Great tip! ty! :)
Thanks for the tips. I have just subbed :)
I've just bought valhiem and it's a great game and your vid has helped me figure stuff out lol. I'm a total noob gamer and I think after playing this game I will be a full on gamer!
Highest Comfort is currently 18(if you're lucky) or 19(if you're insanely lucky) because there is a Maypole and Yule Tree which can spawn(very rarely) in village ruins, and they can both spawn in the same ruin. You can't deconstruct them and they both provide 1 comfort when you're resting nearby. You'd have to get both to spawn close enough for their buffs to overlap, though, which is where the 'insanely lucky' part comes in.
You don't have to be lucky, just patient enough to wait for the seasonal updates that enable building them.
@@ZarHakkar my guy this comment was from 2 years ago. they weren't buildable back then.
@@Slywyn hm my bad
Always the issue with early access games spanning long development times
infinite, free COAL: find a fire geyser in the swamp, pick around it so theres only swimmable water around the fire guys spawn point. When they spawn, they die - leaving coal and cores.
literally making this episode right now haha. It'll be on my channel tonight :)
@@Kysen lol. I'm wondering if u can cage them in with walls so there's no offset spawns like I've noticed sometimes.
Build (upgraded) forge and workbench on site!
The first right near a couple of copper ore sites in the forest (mining down for extra ore). Then take 16 copper and 2 bronze with you (plus portal ingredients of course) on your ship to find a swamp and do all iron mining, weapon making, upgrades, etc. again on site. (Or if you find a site between both biomes with plenty of Sunken Tombs...) You can teleport everything else in and you only need one ship back to 'home base' IF you want to have a set up there too (otherwise its more for building material and stone cutting table.) You basically do the same for silver/black metal, building at the edge in a forest or swamp. (Or swamp. Take plenty of iron if sailing to your first mountain.)
Instead of burning your food you can just make a bunch of coal, destroy the kiln and make the smelter
or you could stop being a lasy prick and go find another burial chamber
@@precooled Maybe there was only one in your dark forest. Also lazy*
I knew most of these but the portal tip was useful. I have like 8 portals currently and for some reason it didn't click that I really only need one. I just made some signs next to it with the location names which are also marked on the map.
Regarding the "Destroy buildings for wood tip": you should repair the structure first. You get more wood for a fully healthy item than a damaged item. Repairing is free.
Not true.
You get the same amount regardless
80 hours in and I didn't know about the first tip! It's frustrating trying to mine copper and have the Greydwarfs attack, having a fire set to keep them at bay is a great idea!
Me too 😂
If you build you house with a "hitting rock" inside, you can boost up those weapon skills at night and bypass the sleep cycle. If you are in range of the fire buff, you can get stamina back quickly. Shooting arrows at it also gives you skill points to level up bows more quickly.
Excellent guide. Thanks!!
Have 2 portals at your base, not one.
Leave one of them always named the same. This is your return portal.
Rename the second one to where you want to go. This is your exit portal.
I currently have a variable portal and my Alpha portal at home and I have my Beta - Juliet portals at places I've visited.
The reason this is useful is so you always have a way back home - eg. If you go through your portal and then create a second portal a way off from there. You won't be able to link to a linked portal.
I don’t see how this works. If you want to go back to your periphery portal you’d either need the unchanging one (supposedly return) and you’d end up changing the name too
@@thentox4778 Cool. So what I do is:
Alpha is Always Alpha.
When I create a new portal I set its name to Alpha (if exit one isn't preset to what this one is supposed to be)
I go through it, name the exit portal to what the new portal should be.
Go back through Alpha
Set tag of new portal to its proper name.
Job done. Portal now connected to exit portal.
It's even easier and more intuitive in practice than it is in text.
(Another tip for the smelter and kiln) if you don't have another surfing cores to craft both the kiln and the smelter you can deconstruct the kiln with the hammer (scroll wheel button) every time your done making coal and I'm pretty certain you'll get all the materials back and you can make the smelter
6:09 Something I figured out is that you can stack the cooking stations on top of eachother and they will still work, so you can have up to 12 cooking stands.
How do you get friendly boar back into their pen? Is it possible to lure them or get them to follow you? I had my two boar escape their pen and I want to get them back in...?
In most cases - you can uncover the treasure chests in the medows before having a pick axe by standing on the lowest spot near the stone formation and leveling all the internal ground
What do you mean at 10:08 with the raspberry’s how do you make them keep spawning?
When woodcutting, often stand in an angle when chopping the tree, so you don't hit the ground or other objects that may split the damage to the tree.
Love your vids man. Thanks for the tips!
Glad you like them! :)
These are actually really good tips, really good video overall!
Glad you like them! Thank you :)
tip on blocking, gather a lot of greydwarf or any other low lvl enemy ideally trap them in the hole jump in and hold block.
a tip you can add to the wood piles is that they can be overlapped quite a bit
Or like he said put 500 wood into a chest smaller than one wood pile. The wood/stone piles are fine for aesthetics, but not so good for storage.
I used to do this until I went back to get wood and it only gave 1 per stack. Lost 500 wood. They were covered so it wasn't from degradation.
You can also store wood and stone piles in troll caves if you have one.
Doesn't take much to build a chest that will store way more wood with way easier access.
Not sure if its because i played DS3 but i believe trolls are very easy to kill with dodge+spear(they take bonus piercing dmg). Just manage your stamina and you're set, they are very slow and telegraph a lot
For the not enough surtling core one at 6:20. You could also just build the kiln, make a bunch of coal, and then tear the kiln down and replace it with the smelter. That's how I did it at first. Doesn't waste food which is more valuable than wood imo.
Ive seen others pave their roads , it gives you a little boost in speed. Probably later game stuff, but paved highway system with glowing plant lights would look awesome lol
If you rename a portal and jump through immediately, it will always go to the old portal name. This is very useful if you want to go to a different location than your portal is bound to, as you can name the portal to where you want to go, wait a few seconds, rename it back, and jump through to go there without changing the portal name. I always keep an open portal in my base just for this.
It's a life saver for if you go through portal too fast by mistake too since you have somewhere to portal back to.
Instead of wasting food for charcoal if you don't have enough cores, remember that tearing down things you've built returns all the resources. So build the kiln, prepare a couple stacks of charcoal, destroy the kiln and build a smelter, process some ore, switch back to a kiln, etc.
You can add to the shipwreck thingy the treasures seen all around on land "marked" by stones in a ship shape, everyone has a chest in it if you dig and some bones, think it's pretty cool early on
He literally mentioned it tho?
Don't waste time with bronze armor.
Each item of Bronze armor starts at 8 and upgrades to 14, for 23 bronze (that's 46 copper and 23 tin!) in all (crafting and upgrades).
But the Trollskin a step below it starts at 6 and upgrades to 12, and for that 2 points less (6 in all) , you just use troll hides that you'll be finding much more than you need of anyway.
Also, don't automatically jump to the next tier. If you have your bronze mace and buckler, for example, fully upgraded, then the mace does 53 damage and the shield blocks 55 with 30 Parry force. The Iron Mace does 55 damage, and the banded shield blocks 60 with 40 parry force. And it's actually worse than that--every item has Durability starting at 200 and going up as you upgrade it, so your iron mace and shield will wear out faster, and for Bronze-to-Iron in particular the buckler gives a x2 parry bonus while the banded iron gives x1.5--so when parrying, your basic bronze buckler already matches your basic banded shield; if you upgraded your buckler, the iron is worse.
Armor is even worse: basically, the fully-upgraded armor of each tier (not counting trollskin) matches the basic armor of the next tier. So if your armor is maxxed out, you don't get anything from the new armor until you can upgrade it... except weight.
I use an iron chest because it looks badass. I use no other movement inhibitor, I like my characters looking good, and with shields.... armor is not absolutely vital....
Nice vids bro...Any way we can jump on the same host?
You can easily level up swimming in sunken crypts. Just find a flooded portion and autorun/swim until stamina is low get out of the water and let stamina come back up, repeat.
If you are a PC player and don't use the Q (auto-run) go to settings and change map which is m to Q. Its closer and in my opinion its a better set-up for the keyboard layout
Mountain tip: mountain mobs will target your campfires, so if you're using them to keep warm before you have the mead or frost resist armor, be ready to run to another one or make more.
Basic wood is super plentiful. If you travel through an area regularly go ahead and make a shack with a bench and fire. May not seem like a big deal, but gives you a rest station to repair tools and dry off. Don't go overboard with resources, stick to basic wood and stone on this rest stations.
A lot of clips could have used better lighting. The wall of chests was basically a black wall with faint metallic rings on the front. You even had standing torches right in front of them, but apparently couldn't be bothered to stick some resin in them to make the chests more visible.
if you dont have enough sturling cores to make a kiln and smelter. just make a kiln create coal, then break the kiln youll get you cores back and now u can make a smelter. rotate as required.
Or spend 15 minutes looking for another cave and get more cores haha. Seems like a waste of time going through that, instead of just getting the cores.
"frost resistance food" do you have to set fire to yourself, can see the point in doing so, and the food does not get frozen but I always loses HP.
just an fyi. u can also eat whilst you have qued your set of armor to put on.
The thought of creating a road never even occurred to me. 👍
