the damage it's about damage then damage, but it's all about the damage
I am so sorry you had to endure it. lol
@@t0ssacoin408 What - All that "Damage" ?
Great overview! I run more or less the same dirty combo set, although I sometimes exchange the Ask trousers for the Embla trousers when I'm running a hybrid build. The bubble and the summoned thorns are amazing.
I do hope they rework some of the armor sets, though. I like mixing and matching to get exactly what I need for a given biome or my preferred playstyle, but they just made the Root Harnesk too powerful. It trivializes the Swamp, the Plains and the Mistlands (as long as you keep barley wine on you at all times :D) and is still the best one in the Ashlands. Sure, it makes 1 star Asksvins deadly, but I can easily ignore 4 archers while dealing with it. I really wanted to run the Ask set for the bonuses, but I ended up switching back since I'm not yet skilled enough to survive the onslaught that the Ashlands thows at you.
This game desperately needs a plains light set, and a mistlands light set. Every time a light set gets released it is a crowd favorite.
Thank you! This was a nice video, you really did a lot of edits 🎉
I appreciate it!
Great vid man, thanks!
glad you enjoyed it!
Finished Ashlands wearing flametal helm with embla robes. Still solid eitr regen while being able to tank some hits if bubble pops. Brought the hood as a switch for smaller scale fights and to raise skeles
Mage playstyle feels alot stronger in this biome than it did in the Mistlands.
Another great video!🎉
Only the best!
First! Good analysis man
Glad you appreciated it!
love that damage dont give up
Appreciate it!
Subbed because damage. Also check out the threadmenace 2 minute boss kill. he uses the ask set with the ashen cape to get extra attack stamina reduction and more armor.
Yeah, I actually saw that the other day. It was pretty sick. Thanks for the sub!
Thanks for this! Def a validation of some of the stuff I have been using. Would you be able to add the numbers for the mixed set with Flametal legs instead? I feel like the extra armor is worth the added slow against the Askvin and slashes from warriors as well as the 20% burn res will give you that 1 more sec to get out of the lava when an Askvin inevitably catches you with your back to it.
I can def do some testing later tonight. I domt think itll make a big deal in protection because armor has diminishing returns, but the flametal legs do have a decent bit more armor. I'll add another comment later.
So I ran the test against a couple of the mobs, I couldn't see any real difference at a glance. After doing some math, it made a marginal difference for most mobs I tested. Kind of makes sense due to only giving 10 more armor, and armor gives diminishing returns the higher in armor you get.
Awesome, thanks for doing that. Given what you found, I'll probably just swap back to the ask legs. Jen
I may have missed if as I haven't looked through all of your videos, but if you haven't done a video on this already, I would love to see a video to deep dive the diminishing returns of armor? When does it kick in? And is there just a soft cap or is there a hard cap? I think this is a great topic and would love to see iron gate develop more into peace bonuses with negatives like the root armor chest over just full set bonuses which I feel are great, but limit the player's capability to make impactful choices when determining if they should use a full set for its 3 piece bonus or just 1 of those pieces. Ask armor would be a great example that the set could have been split up with maybe legs giving negative jump and chest giving neg run while the helm gave 10 piece and then the 3 set bonus give the 20% attack cost reduction and the few pieces being weak to something like frost so the full set negates the frost res from your cloak and you need to take frost meads in mountains.
@@Veggie6Nubz Yeah individual effects would def be more fun. The diminishing returns become pretty evident around Padded Armor. My "The Best Armor in Valheim" video isnt focused on it, but it shows how the full carapace set wasnt much better than full padded.
Spear enjoyer? How rare, i actually preffer ask set as an archer
I'm actually pretty glad they made a set like it. Caters to a good amount of playstyles equally. I really wish they would add more light sets.
Video was very helpful!!!!!!!!!!! damage
Always try to pack it with useful information!
I wear RootChest FenrisLegs FeatherCape and the FlametalHelmet. Always using barleywine of course. it is good for me so far. i like the speed. been playing fenris the whole playthrough since i got it even in the mistlands(with bonemass of course)
Bonemass is crazy strong. Are you going to eventually change out your feather cape for the ash cape?
@@t0ssacoin408 i dont know. For bossfight perhaps for extra armor but +20percent jump height with feather cape is also very strong to dodge
@@jpcrido I never even thought of using it for dodging. That's a good idea.
I play support mage. Focus on casting protection and dealing damage when possible.
I arrived in ashlands with (padded lv4, root chest lv 4, eitr weave legs lv 2)
It was quite literally d-day for me and my 2 friends (they both use full carapace lv 2)
It was quite laggy (guy with weakest pc was host) and i couldn't reliably tell which attack is coming (pierce or not), so i often died to warriors with slash attacks and asksvin.
After we set portal and explore i upgraded to full embla set lv1 and while it has less defense i find it better.
But I'll still make ask set, because i like spears and crossbows.
Also thinking of trying a battle mage build - metal head, embla chest + legs, ashcape. Food - 1 health, 1 stamina, 1 eitr. Sword, shield and staff of protection (maybe can switch to root chest)
Was just playing around with a necro/battlemage build and it was pretty sick. Thanks for sharing the story, lol. Sounds eventful!
@@t0ssacoin408 I Think the "Battle Mage" build has a lot of potential, All of the blood weapons are been ignored as trash, but a "Blood battle" mage can consistently and safely lower his HP by Casting Shields/Skeletons/Trolls, then if it pulls out some dual blood axes or a Blood sword, there is a lot of damage it can cause while been low HP and Hiding behind his summons, while been not that unsafe do to the shield. Maybe worth having a look at that play style.
@@TheLapetra Once I flesh it out more, I'll probably make a video on it. It seems to be really good. especially if you are a solo.
You got me, Damage.
Appreciate it!
Damage , i subscribe and hi from Kazakhstan
Haha, I appreciate it. Howdy, from the U.S.
ask armor with ashen cape is only way to go for me, idk if im gonna use it for fader but those bonuses are great, and heat resist on flametal is just useless
That is how I'm feelin as well
Now that’s a lot of damage
Appreciate it!
Still rockin the Fenris Armor with the ashen cape
Living on the edge I see. lol
@t0ssacoin408 Yep, but if you use the max health foods from the ashlands it's not so bad. With the speed of the set and the block + attack bonus of the cape I find I don't need much stamina
@@FreshBagelz Good to know. Love how the set looks. I just am not good enough to use it well in higher biomes.
In order to get any Ask set bonus you need to wear the full set unfortunately.
Yeah, but you dont need the asksvin cloak. Just the helmet, chest, and pants. The cloak actually didnt affect the set effect at all.
Good Video. Maybe I'll take less Damage now.
That's the goal. Goodluck!
Okay. So I tooooo *hic* oook a damage evwy time you said drink, and I can't feel my eyelids now.
Heck of a drinking game. Rest the liver. Drink some water lol.
@@t0ssacoin408 Just getting back into Valheim again (Been on D4 recently) so getting used to it all (again!) - Video's like yours helps a lot! Thanks.
@@tonyosborne666 No problem. Glad they could help!
“Flah-metal” 🤣
I guess it would be pronounced "flay-metal"? Please don't bully me lol
They really need to do something about that stupid root hartnesk chest
I would be inclined to agree, but I'd rather they just add other options that give me incentive to take them over the root chest. It is a pve game. Give me cool items please.
That Root Harnesk still broken? Damn!
It puts in all the work
I wear flamemetal chest and fenris hood with embla trousers
Flame chest and fenris hood = no need for barley wine
Sounds drippy, but I'm not sure if that setup comes with fire resist. I thought you needed the full fenris set for that. If so, then I've got some more testing to do because that sounds super good.
@@t0ssacoin408 ok so I did some testing:
The description of the hood has set effects description seperate from (fists + 15, damage modifier: fire resist)
But both fists and fire bonus ARE under the set effect description...
So I tested punching skeles with and without the good. Both times I was averaging 3 to 5 damage.
But then I tested the "fire damage"
I'm still not positive on the difference between heat resistance, fire damage, and burning or how much of each other they involve.
But I tested this outfit^
Wich I also wear ashen cape for, but it stayed on through all the tests so shouldn't change results as it has no fire resist.
I used the damage tick from burning due to a lava blob attack.
As it was much more consistent then the damage tick from burning due to standing in fire or touching lava. (Pretty sure lava does pure damage like falling trees as well as fire and burning)
Side note: the flametal chest alone prevents you from burning from standing in fire or being set alight with a fire attack. Not from touching lava tho.
So without flametal chest or fenris hood the lava blobs made me burn for a damage tick of 7.3
With hood on but no chest piece. I burned for a tick of 5.5
No chest piece and embla hood = 5
Chest piece on but no hood = 3.7
Whole outfit (with fenris hood not embla)= 3.1
I then tested heat resistance with the water.
Only the flametal chest piece made a difference... The difference being that it takes much longer to start boiling, and when you do start boiling it's slower (but still very fast you don't wanna boil regardless)
Conclusion: the fenris hood doesn't protect against fire or burning.
Meaning the only benefit I'm getting from it is +3% movement speed... Wich I love, but that's hardly worth it without the perceived extra protection from fire. I'll prob switch to embla.
Another takeaway tho is that the flametal chest piece is doing all the heavy lifting for protecting me from fire and heat. But I could probably take smaller hits from fire attacks if I start using barley wine too...
I'll see if I can stay alive without it. I really value inventory slots with the amount of equipment I need to carry as a solo that uses a Ballance build
@@capatheist Thanks for sharing your results. I ran a few tests as well to confirm just in case.
The Flametal Chest does seem to keep you from lighting on fire when touching a fire (kind of handy). However, it doesn't seem to reduce burning damage sadly.
The Flametal chest does reduce the amount of damage you take from lava and from the hot water, but it is hardly enough to save you if you have really messed up. It is more for a quick in and out of the lava and hope you live kind of deal.
Fenris hood just gave movement speed.
Burning damage doesn't seem to be too much of an issue with this set, due to no weakness to it, but can be reduced with the barley wine. As long as you don't stand in a fire attack and let it stack, it shouldn't be too much of an issue.
I think swapping the fenris hood for the embla hood would be a good deal if you enjoy playing a hybrid kind of build.
I hope they change the collar around the ashen cape. In my opinion, it looks terrible.
I think it looks good with the flametal helm, but not much else.
I almost missed it Damage!!
Appreciate it!
I ran the whole biome in fenris ashcap... I swapped to the new light just to kill the boss, and immediately regretted it..
Youre a madman lol. Do you use staff of protection at all?
@@t0ssacoin408 no, I was a krom, demolisher B4.. now just them electric axes!!
