I see so many amazing designs on youtube but eventually always just place 4 column or how many are needed, place wooden floor as a roof and then above the floor I put the smallest Thatch Roofs 26 degrees and call it a day.

In my oppinion normal food is way better because u get better stats...

As the title says 🙃
Chads will know what they know

I just unlocked the spirit caller and it is a really nice atmosphere and immersion adding upgrade. But

1. The moose tramples lingonberry bushes! I found some nice patches with 4-5 bushes, marked them on the map, the moose just walked over them and... Woodchips! Now I don't pick and walk around lingonberries when the moose is out. It is just frustrating and dumb.

2. The animals should stay 2-5 meters away from me at all times. If I get close, they should walk away. Trying to place a workbench or even pick up stuff is super annoying when you're constantly being pushed around. Optionally, there should be a command, like middle click button which tells the animals (and skellies) to move away 2-10m. Or, middle click just kills them all.

3. Invocation should rotate between the animals, not randomly generate one. It is annoying enough to regenerate all animals every time you go through a portal. Having to just wait and click 10 times to get a bear or moose when the gods of random are against you is just a dumb and annoying.

Also, disable the noise of northern vengence! It gets really annoying quickly. I didn't think about it at first but when it disappears, the silence is just soooo nice. And, use something else than a blue ball as a visual aid. It just looks bad and toy-ish and it hides the red shield ball. (and please replace the red shield ball visuals as well... but I know that might be asking for much)

Oh, and add more quick bar slots! With some of the new magic staffs being complementary rather than replacing the old ones, there's just no room in the quickbar anymore. At least 9 and 0 should be used as well.

After many playthrough and many many base constructions which I love it, I saw a post once on this and tried it my way : covering your work benches in order to have a smooth and unified space integrating smal decorations, palce your items and built on it.

First off I love this game, hands down infatuated. Been on and off since 2022 and recently invested 200 hours in the last month. However, the more worlds I start, the more I realize that base building is DISCOURAGED the farther you get into the game.

The main reason I say this is as soon as I get to the Mistlands through Deep North, mobs do an insane amount of structure damage which most often than not encourages me to have to constantly run away from my base for fear of it ruining my long long hours of building.

Which makes me question why the devs even want thought this was a good idea having structures take so much damage. Why they made it so having simple outposts in different biomes is infinitely less stressful than engaging with the build mechanics. And it’s such an easy fix of just raising structure’s resistance to enemy attacks that I really don’t understand why they haven’t done so already…

I just don't get why half the posts are moaning about their items breaking when you never had to use it to begin with.

Instead of breaking It should give random bebuff !

• -5 carry weight lol
• extra stamina drain if wet / swim
• you suddenly have slight weakness to 1 type of damage ( It can accumulate to ultra weak lol )
• ( Moders Hates You status ) - Wind always against your face
• Extra noise so mob will swarm you more lol
• Extra stars chance even for boss or mob that normally dont have
• Spawner active range further, faster respawn and higher population
• Chance for double raid
• Get Heat damage if you stay too close to fire source lol
• ( Bad Chef ; 1star status ) - Instead of getting +1 of that food you get 1 more coal lol
• ( Terrible Chef ; 2star status ) - spawn ember and start fire spread XD
• ( Khehehe status ) - randomly giggle in fuling voice lol
• Extra slippy on ice XD
• Odin spawn much closer and stare at you longer ಠ_ಠ
• etc etc

Anyone have more terrible debuff to add? lol

Just finished 1.0 and wanted to build something in the new biome. Absolutely love this game!
I love building things around the games natural landmarks and I was thinking of building on top of a Gammeltroll but that was too daunting so I stuck with a Morkalla fort which stops you from building inside of it but not around and on top of the staircase entrance.

Yes modded exists, but out of the box/vanilla multiplayer should not be this horrific.

I get people have views about the forge but it‘s so low down on priorities the developers should be looking at.

Please, for the love of Oden, just start over with the netcode and have the server simulate instead.

Felt a bit cheesy getting some pre-bloodgold DN food ahead of this fight but also why not? Gjalund the Overprepared is hoping oatmeal is great for a hybrid mage/melee build.

Also ha yes I know I ran out of major health potions, I cbf going back into the mist for more jelly.... big mistake?

I got curious how the upgrade station decides whether an upgrade works or the item breaks, so I went through the game code and files.

The roll is not random. For a new character, the first roll on each item and level comes from the character’s name. A character named X always gets the same results on the same item. A character named Y gets different ones.

So I built a name finder. You enter an item and the quality it starts at, and it lists character names that give exactly 8 upgrades before the next attempt breaks it. 8 upgrades is the most one item can get this way. But multiple items can reach higher levels.

Name Finder: https://melichor.github.io/ValheimSaveParser/ (scroll down to “Upgrade name finder”)

Check the notes that are listed there, some are very important to what you're trying to achieve.

Simple mode just gives you a name with 8 upgrades, advanced mode allows you to search for paths with multiple items which can reach really high upgrade levels.

EDIT:
I HAVE BROKEN IT FURTHER.
I have figured out, that the RNG is actually not tied to the item, but only to the character.
That means that you can chain these upgrades, I have updated the tool

Anyone have any ideas what this missing one is or how i might best find out maybe? or any advice in general? tysm!

EDIT

SOLVED! It's the Mysterious rock. thanks so much Birds over people, and everyone else for the help <3

Don’t think I’m cut out for this.

It's not like either of them are much needed, but after full release, starting over, I've sailed enough to get both sailing achievements, and I still haven't faced a single serpent. The same story about abominations. Been in swamp a lot, and not a single abomination. Writhans too, so far found only one.

Heck is wrong?

A handful of very poorly timed deaths in a relatively short amount of time has resulted in the absolute massacre of my skill levels 😭

Made it to Yagluth and wasn't even having that hard of a time getting there but things escalated quickly and now I'm gonna need to absolutely GRIND to be able to face Yagluth with any chance at all lmao.

The skill loss on death is so, so brutal. Polearms is still sitting at 34 but it's WELL BELOW what it once was 🥲

vanilla build, only meadows materials

2 rounds of the longest fight highlight

So I'm trying to fight Moder for the first time, but it almost looks like the platform is duplicated and I can't place all 3 eggs. Is this a known issue? Am I kinda screwed at this location? Would hate to relocate as I've spent alot of time setting up nearby for the fight.
