@@PrimitiveNomad if the orc key despawns right away, dont worrt no key needed to get into any chest, just pickaxe it open itll break and all the stuff will come out, viola! No key needed when ye got a trusty pickaxe!
Plus it's easier to see what's on a pallet instead opening every chest to see where you have your stone. In valheim you could label your chests. That doesn't seem to be a thing in this game or I just haven't gotten to it yet
@@jairusstrunk94 there a multiple reasons i have had to go into chest. one reason being to see what mats I need when i go out farming. But also after getting to the elven area and not having what I needed there to craft and going back to grab materials from first camp because I couldnt cut trees or mine ore with my first tool set and went back to first camp and grabbed the materials i needed to craft my second set of tools. Otherwise yeah u dont go in alot but its still easier to have things on pallets so you can see what is where. plus not everything goes on pallets and in the elven area i had trouble having stuff pulled from chests for some reason it was making go pull it out of the chest and put it on my body. which is completely different than it had been working up until that point. but because there wasnt room for chests and pallets up on platform where the forge is I put them below but they were still within the radius of my camp but it wasnt pulling.
I still prefer the pallets over the chests and not all materials go on pallets like cloth and gems etc so if you want to see what chest has cloth and hides etc. I have to open them. where in valheim popped a label on the chest and never had to go into the chests besides putting stuff in. where now I am going chest to chest to put the right thing in each. but thats cause i am not comigling mats. 1 chest for hides and cloth another for gems and coins etc etc
@@OggieDoggie Except here there's no reason NOT to co mingle mats. I have a massive base with 1000s of resources.... 4 chests. 4 chests is all I've needed. Because ALL the workbenches PULL from the chests and pallets. You only need to know where maybe 8 things are stored. Iron ingots, Stone, Wood, Coal, Metal scraps. Things you need to take with you when making a new forward base in a new area. Nothing else needs to ever be moved from it's chest (other than black diamonds for a new mapstone) Just sort fabrics and cloth Gems and coins, Ingredients Everything else goes on pallets for easy grabbing. It's not a coincidence that everything buildable is usually some 5, 10, 0r 15 resources and you just happen to grab stacks of 5 from pallets. Grab 5 iron, boom, repair station. click the coal pallet 3 times, boom enough for a hearth. They made storage so easy and efficient. You don't need labels when you only actually need 3 or 4 chest. ANd you can just stack more straight on top of the first 4 if you happen to need more storage space for each category. So simple.
Build a warp stone next to the statue in the elven quarter and visit the statue every 4 days to collect the Elbereths blessings. They're used as a food ingredient for some of the best food in the game. The food is called Lembas and it can be carried with you on the action bar to heal. It's made in the oven. This is the only place in the game that I've found so far that gives this ingredient.
@@snarfsnarfff another thing about lambas is it restore your energy, allowing you to just not rest at night. Especially useful when far from home and exausted.
Yes was going to mention this and seems you can add gems to the hoard pile after it is built perhaps as a place to store them, you can retrieve the gems. There is a 99g pile and a 250 pile have no idea if it goes higher than that.
pretty backwards to say "don't rely on premade buildings" that's the opposite of a tip imo cause most people aren't aware you can use them in survival games and using them saves time and resources cause all you gotta do is add a couple walls and the basics, like in ark for example, why build a base from scratch when you can use a pre existing structure and add on to it?
Here's a good tip you didn't mention, you have the ability to deconstruct anything you make and get 100% of the materials used to make it back, so an example is the mapstone, after you fix one you gain the schematic to make one and if memory serves it costs 3 black diamonds and like 20 stone, press X and left click the map stone and you will get all 3 black diamonds and all the stone back. I found this helpful when moving my whole base early one especially the hearth since it costs like 30 coal to construct. Easy to save materials early on and to fix mistakes like a misplaced wall or torch. Cheers!
Basic mining tip: DO NOT MINE DOWN, always mine up because you can always go down once you get everything on the top. This will save you from having to make so many mining platforms
You can throw carried items like the forge parts up to the next level, no need for heaps of platforms or rope ladders, or passing to a friend as shown.
I would add one general tip for all players both new and old: - When you are going around you merry way and collect stone or wood or whatever material you have in huge number in your inventory instead of returning to your base with all that stuff build campfire and use pallet to store that material. When you eventually need that material you can go back to that campfire, take all the stuff from pallet and destroy campfire(you get back 100% resources). There is really no need to keep running back and forth to your base. 2:00 pallets don't cost anything, IF you want to build stone pallet it shows you need 25 stone but that stone goes on pallet and you can pick it up immediately back up 4:02 if you use axe to cut down the trees, you can use charged attack, hold right mouse button and fully charge it, it will only take two hits for tree to go down, instead of multiple hits with pickaxe 6:15 later in game you can destroy orc chests with your weapons or pickaxe ( i used Quarrymaster pickaxe masterworks item to do it )
Axes are in some ways meant to be used to cut down trees tho. There is a specific rune that give you special loot if you cut trees with an axe with said rune
The best tip is to have two worlds. When your pack is full when your out and about just exit your game and load into another world where you made a house of chests and then deposit everything then exit that world and load into the previous one and continue on. Then when you go back home just go back to the other world and get your loot back
Just a couple of pointers here: Pallets take up less space when you use them based on the stack size. Not every stack in a box is 99 items, so use pallets when the storage options are low. Secondly, usually, pre-built crafting stations cost less to build than other manually building it. Case in point (though it's not a crafting station) are the Durin's Lamp - if you see these in the wild, they cost only a small handful of resources, though if you have to build one yourself it costs 1x Mahal's Gift, 1x Sun Stone, 4x Khazad Steel, 6x True Quartz & 15x Adamant (*Ridicule is nothing to be scared of*).
While chests certainly can hold more stuff, pallets are imho cosmeticly more pleasing. I like having a wharehouse full of rows of pallets of wood and rock, just for the looks of it. Also, near my forge I like having pallets of ore next to pallets of ignots from that ore. So basicly pallets are just great for decorating your base. And a few tips - when you hold the "E" key, it picks up all the materials in a radius around you at once (I wish I knew this one a lot earlier in the game) - when you get to the Elven forrest, wait with cutting the trees until you have discovered the rune that enchants an axe with a small chance to get ironwood, that way you get Elven and ironwood - make sure you have wood, stone, coal and black diamonds with you when you venture out to an unexplored area, so that you can create a hearth and a teleport at any time to your base to empty your backpack or to restock, this will save you a lot of time. Especially when you die in a spot that's far from you base. - when you want to make a big build, make sure to lay a solid foundation first, because it realy sucks having to tear everything down again, because you can't place the last pieces due to an unstable foundation Also, if you like building, there's a huge cavern at the end of the game where the Balrog used to live. It's realy humongous, so save up all the wood, stones, granite and adamant you can and build your own fortress that's worthy of the title Lord of Moria's Seat :)
Comes down to amount of storage. 175 for a pallet vs 2376 for a chest. It will take 13.5 pallet to store same amount of stones. Chests also can store different types of stones in same container. Chest takes up far less room than a pallet. You can recover the components used to make the chest, so nothing really lost
I almost quit the game, cause I spent 5hrs struggling with black diamonds... I had no idea, or even inclination to smash the orc totems to get the key... I broke my rule and did an internet search, to learn that... now I'm trying to figure out safely getting into the Deep. Love this game.
The game is super fun. Sometimes, you have to do a quick search if all else fails. Use the dive roll mechanic I mentioned, I basically jumped down with little to no damage
@PrimitiveNomad I tried that until bats knocked me onto a blue crystal, couldn't set up anymore platforms or rope ladders. Luckily the game placed my grave marker on a walkway I'd made, and the crystal deep had a mapstone at the very bottom. Dodge roll was how, I cleared orc town, that and exploiting the bosses height to pull him from the arena, and got him to smash the walls instead of me... the combat in Moria has alot of easy means to exploit.
You're not alone. When i got to the mines I thought I hit a dead-end when every statue I re-built only unlocked one piece to a NEW part. I was up to 6 items with only 1 piece. Embarrisingly enough I found a dig spot near to where I had set up camp. To my surprise that tunnel lead me on an 8 hour journey. I found statues for my missing pieces and endless resources. It did eventually come to a dead end but was happy to have found it. .
Hey I’m a bit late but just got the game, just wondering. I have a base at the first forge. It has a lot of stuff in it. Do I gotta run back and forth to my new base past the spiders or is there a easier way to transport all my stuff
I saw it in another video being used, but they never said how to do it. For the quick platforms if you hit F you get a platform with a ladder which saves having to build a bunch of them to get access, or climb up/down.
Using an ax on a tree is 100% faster, holding heavy for half a second the releasing 1 or 2 shots most trees. I hit for over 80 with an axe while the pick huts for 30. Edit Now that I'm further the pick hits for 80 and the axe hits for 357. Axe is definitely better.
This game is fantastic finally was able to find the third and 4 deep. Make sure you are exploring there are a ton of hidden pathways climb and build them platforms for travel
Using the ace if you hold the attack button it will do more damage. This lets you do 50+ per hit on mobs and more importantly trees. It’s super quick and takes usually 2 hits
From my experience with Black Diamonds, I wasn’t getting any until I unlock the codex entry for it (may have been a wizards mark, cannot remember), the moment I got it, was getting multiple BD per chest almost every time. Had opened a lot before then with none dropping. (First playthrough, campaign, currently at lower depths)
one thing is all that wood/stone/coal stack. the resource you use isn't a waste but it will already be in the stack. so you didn't lose any material and save like 3 slot from your storage box
If you get deeper and reach the actual mines area, you can reach another hidden level if you build down platforms. (and no I do not mean the elevator) I managed to discover a whole area after I contsructed 20 is platforms down from a dead end room. (or what it seemd like) and the "new" area was in the same layout than those above it. (on the map)
I like the game so far, it's a little jank and simple. One of the big issues is no real progression for the character. There's no levels or XP or skills or anything (or at least not that I see). So killing enemies is pretty useless and waste of time IMO. Other than meat, enemies don't seem to drop anything.
I would agree with this. Fighting enemies is useless unless you need specific items. Leather, meat, etc. But yeah, as of now, there is no real threat or point to them.
im playing campaign and im trying to kill the octopus but i try shooting it with a bow and it says it needs stronger shots but everytime i hold the button to charge the shot nothing happens and ive tried restarting the game several times and nothing fixes it so i literally cant progress without doing it
You need to get a stronger bow and arrows and keep progressing to unlock higher tier gear. You just found the boss too early, which is okay. Mine up and upgrade.
The Pallets for keeping Ore and wood on Cost nothing to make. it uses 5 of the item it holds, but u can then get it back when u make it leaving a empty pallet on the floor to use.
how are pallets expensive??? They dont actually use the resources. It puts what resource it says you need on it when its built so it really cost nothing at all.
I got mad one time because one of the orc flags dropped its key and it disappeared into the ground, so I smashed the orc chest with the pickaxe and got all the loot from inside it. I mean, I assume I did but hard to say for sure. Dunno if it'd work with low-tier tools, though.
I feel like I’m stuck in this game. I made the belegost forge but the door to the next section is closed. I have yet to find emeralds or iron wood. Any tips?
Ironwood is discovered later on, or even from orc drops. Emeralds will be in mined deposits, chest, or found from orcs during raids. Don't sleep on raids they grant good resources if the RNG is there
@@mateuszmorawiecki2729 whenever youre looking at the map you can see the legend or key on the left side and click any of the markers and toggle the "eye" on them to see exactly where and how far they are from you, usefull when traversing the deeps
No keys are needed for orc chests, just break them open and all the loot inside will drop out. Sometimes the orc keys despawn for me when they drop, so i smacked those boxes open with me pickaxe!
Год назад+2
Nice! 👍🏽 I don't agree with the palettes though they are a great quality of life improvement. Especially when you end up going back to prior outposts to gather some of the iron you were hoarding.
THanks for the tips, new player here. Just made my first base And found the first forge in campaign. I have 2 questions. 1. Am I supposed to manually carry my stash from base to base or is there an easier way? 2. I picked campaign but was wondering if sandbox is better or worse?
The name of the game is to have more than one base. Each area hosts materials you'll need, so just build new bases and use your storage to transport between them. You will eventually be able to build and teleport between bases. The story is better, in my opinion. First off, get accustomed to the game, then do sandbox for fun after! Thank you for the support, I'm glad these tips have helped! 💛🤟🏼
Thank you For the response, it was taking a while to get from base to base and was worried. Do I have to make a trip to each location in order to setup the fast travel or will it already have a linked system?
@mrman-yj3bn you have to link them, and they only go to one location. The idea would be to have two next to each other so they create a chain. I recommend putting them in bases and areas with a high recourse yeild
Thank you a ton! I'm now in the mushroom area but can't use my pick axe on any ores yet. I was pretty confident I got all the statues but now I'm worried I'm supposed to have the 3rd pick axe by now.
NOTE: Something that burned me...before trying to pick up the orc key....make SURE you have an empty inventory slot. If you do not, you may run into a bug (like I did) where it said I picked it up, but I did not....and so one of the orc chests is forever locked now. :(
This is a bug that was in the game since launch. It can occur sometimes with any recipe. Either a hot fix will come or try and find the statues to progress other recipes. Worse case you may need to restart
I've been playing the game the moment it was released and downloaded. I truly love the amount of work and effort that goes into these tip videos from so many different creators, and I watch them constantly. But seriously... how do so few of you know how to say "hearth"? Its pronounced hARth. Like heart. Like your organ. but with a 'th' on the end. Just kinda funny that you are like the ninth youtuber ive watched that says "hERth".
nice video and all, but most of these ARE mentioned in the game, especially the first half of your tips and tricks. Also not all map stones need a black diamond in the game, most but not all. Again also, using chests instead of pallets makes inventory management way more of a pain for materials like that, also the pallets only use what the pallet is for to build it and what was used is on the pallet when built
ahh ok. yea I turned on the massive forge and like 15 small goblins and 4 large ones and 2 orcs came out of no where.. i was outta there so fast @@PrimitiveNomad
@PrimitiveNomad Yeah I get that just me and my wife like games like this but sometimes we wanna do a more calm run and if we die we just wanna respawn and not have to run and grab our loot bags every time
@PrimitiveNomad Me personally I wanna crank up the enemies by like two notches and leave everything else the same, disable death loot drop, and that's my perfect playthrough
the palettes are not worth imo. It takes space for 4 chests and fits 3 stacks or so while in a chest you can hoard like 20 stacks and it take 1/4 the space and is taken out quicker.
I don't get why inventory is so crazy limited to 2 little rows.....even visibly wearing a backpack. That's rough. Also noted no visiable way to tell enemy's health. Hopefully they fix that. Still excited for when this game is off Epic and available...
Later on, there are backpack upgrades that expand the inventory drastically. I agree that once it's not limited to the one store, the game will grow even more.
The 2 rows you're referring to ARE the backpack. If you unequip your backpack or if you die and lose it.. the only inventory you have is your main tool bar at the bottom. And as he said.. you learn to make bigger ones later.
There is a recipe fairly early on for an Explorer's backpack . . . it expands the Scout bp's limit of 8 slots, to 25 slots. Much better for carrying a ton of stuff!
Palettes definitely hold way more than a chest does, especially when you look at trying to store multiple types of items, also I have seen no instance of fall damage, I've purposefully jumped from some really high locations to test that and haven't taken damage yet though that doesn't mean that roll ability isn't really cool, never noticed it before, I did notice though if you are jumping from a higher ledge at a mob/creature you can do a special drop attack also which does slightly more crit damage.
I climbed up 30+ fathoms in the Western halls and jumped down to get back to base for rest. Took 100pts of fall damage and my buddy had to pick me back up.
You can for sure take fall damage. I am assuming you are still in the tutorial area. Once you get to the large mine you will need to make paths to the bottom. If you fall off you will die.
@@SmickyD huh, neat. I've only made it up to the elven area and just repaired the forge so maybe that's why I haven't had and area tall enough to take damage from. Well, I guess I'll retract my no fall damage statement then rofl, my apologies heh.
I have to disagree with your stance on pallets they are free the resources used to make them come already stored on the pallet. You can stack them right on top of each other once you've filled one pallet up i also place my ingot pallets above my head so I can place chests below them. I enjoyed the video though and it was informative I'll employ some of these things.
i played until I got to elvish forge.. and dropped the last part in the water (i got lost getting back) died.. and it didn't respawn back at original location.. so... deleted world 😱😂
Good guide, except that you are wrong about the pallets. I know wood stacks very high on a pallet, but it is the only resource that stacks that high. The great things about pallets is that you can actually stack pallets on top of other pallets, so they actually save alot of space and hold waaaaay more than chests.
while pallets holding metals are much more space efficient then wood, they still 5 to 10 times worse than a single chest. and you can fit 2-3 chests in a place of one pallet, so they should only be used for aestetic purposes
Not all tress and axes do that much damage, plus that's a heavy attack, and it consumes a lot of stamina. I was just showing the difference between the two.
Tips you should know 1) dont play the game. While your out exploring, the game will randomly destroy your base without any warning, makeing building or keeping anything completely pointless! Yayyyyyyy!!
"Tips & Tricks the game doesn't tell you!" First tip "The little platform the game taught you about at the beginning..." God I hate that this is what every gaming tips video is like these days lol
Something must have changed in the last year. repairing thing takes less than building them from scratch. Repairing a warp stone take only one back diamond building one takes 3. to repair a hearth you do not have to have coal. Very helpful early game.
Thanks for all the love and support, everyone! Let me know how you're getting along in Moria, and what you'd like to see added to the game! Cheers!💚🤟🏼
@@PrimitiveNomad if the orc key despawns right away, dont worrt no key needed to get into any chest, just pickaxe it open itll break and all the stuff will come out, viola! No key needed when ye got a trusty pickaxe!
The pallets don't cost anything.. The Items you use to "make" the pallet are ON the pallet and can be used or taken. Pallets are free bro.
Plus it's easier to see what's on a pallet instead opening every chest to see where you have your stone. In valheim you could label your chests. That doesn't seem to be a thing in this game or I just haven't gotten to it yet
@OggieDoggie there's rarely a reason to remove items from your main storages. All crafters in you base will auto pull from all chests and pallets.

just got this on sale on ps5. Absolute blast. I play on easy so i can just casually enjoy building. Been great so far and i like to go build crazy.
It is a blast. Casual can be super fun, just building and cruising through the game enjoying the places you see
You can throw carried items like the forge parts up to the next level, no need for heaps of platforms or rope ladders, or passing to a friend as shown.
I passed it on to a friend who was already up there
Place a platform half way, lay part on the lower stairs, climb, grab part, lay part down on ledge, climb up, grab part, win solo
@@TheVolcos how do i throw items? what to press
I would add one general tip for all players both new and old:
- When you are going around you merry way and collect stone or wood or whatever material you have in huge number in your inventory instead of returning to your base with all that stuff build campfire and use pallet to store that material. When you eventually need that material you can go back to that campfire, take all the stuff from pallet and destroy campfire(you get back 100% resources). There is really no need to keep running back and forth to your base.

4:02 if you use axe to cut down the trees, you can use charged attack, hold right mouse button and fully charge it, it will only take two hits for tree to go down, instead of multiple hits with pickaxe
6:15 later in game you can destroy orc chests with your weapons or pickaxe ( i used Quarrymaster pickaxe masterworks item to do it )

Build a pallet, fill it and then place chests next to it. Use the pallet as an indication of what is in the chests.
That's a good system, too! Seems like it will work fluidly
While chests certainly can hold more stuff, pallets are imho cosmeticly more pleasing.
I like having a wharehouse full of rows of pallets of wood and rock, just for the looks of it. Also, near my forge I like having pallets of ore next to pallets of ignots from that ore.
So basicly pallets are just great for decorating your base.
And a few tips
- when you hold the "E" key, it picks up all the materials in a radius around you at once (I wish I knew this one a lot earlier in the game)
- when you get to the Elven forrest, wait with cutting the trees until you have discovered the rune that enchants an axe with a small chance to get ironwood, that way you get Elven and ironwood
- make sure you have wood, stone, coal and black diamonds with you when you venture out to an unexplored area, so that you can create a hearth and a teleport at any time to your base to empty your backpack or to restock, this will save you a lot of time. Especially when you die in a spot that's far from you base.
- when you want to make a big build, make sure to lay a solid foundation first, because it realy sucks having to tear everything down again, because you can't place the last pieces due to an unstable foundation
Also, if you like building, there's a huge cavern at the end of the game where the Balrog used to live. It's realy humongous, so save up all the wood, stones, granite and adamant you can and build your own fortress that's worthy of the title Lord of Moria's Seat :)
Just found that game this morning and played with a freind tonight and I realy like it. Thanks for these advices it would help a lot.
Cheers, thank you! Good luck out there in the mines! The game is super fun!

The game is super fun. Sometimes, you have to do a quick search if all else fails. Use the dive roll mechanic I mentioned, I basically jumped down with little to no damage
@PrimitiveNomad I tried that until bats knocked me onto a blue crystal, couldn't set up anymore platforms or rope ladders. Luckily the game placed my grave marker on a walkway I'd made, and the crystal deep had a mapstone at the very bottom. Dodge roll was how, I cleared orc town, that and exploiting the bosses height to pull him from the arena, and got him to smash the walls instead of me... the combat in Moria has alot of easy means to exploit.
@hirowinglessangel yeah, the bats do pose a problem there. The same thing happened to me. The combat does have a lot of exploits fursure lol
You're not alone. When i got to the mines I thought I hit a dead-end when every statue I re-built only unlocked one piece to a NEW part. I was up to 6 items with only 1 piece. Embarrisingly enough I found a dig spot near to where I had set up camp. To my surprise that tunnel lead me on an 8 hour journey. I found statues for my missing pieces and endless resources. It did eventually come to a dead end but was happy to have found it. .
this feels like the place to ask. Can you adjust snapping when building in a premade area? everything is crooked.
Currently, there is no way to fix the snapping. Hopefully, in a future update, they will update the building to have independent movement with pieces.
Tip: charge attack trees with an axe to do big numbers. Battle axe destroys trees with 100+ dmg numbers.
i used the bears to farm wood in the elven cave/town. just agro the bear and run in betwen the trees. the bear follows you and destroy the trees.
free wood XD no damage XDDD
Hey I’m a bit late but just got the game, just wondering. I have a base at the first forge. It has a lot of stuff in it. Do I gotta run back and forth to my new base past the spiders or is there a easier way to transport all my stuff
I saw it in another video being used, but they never said how to do it. For the quick platforms if you hit F you get a platform with a ladder which saves having to build a bunch of them to get access, or climb up/down.
It's explained in the key map settings
Extremely clear & helpful. Will follow for more tips.
Funny as your saying use the pick it does for nascent in the video your using heavy attack with the axe and one shoting the trees
Yes, I did show that, lol,🤣 but overall and not all trees will take that much damage. The bigger trees take more hits with the axe then the pick.
will say for the jumping i found out if you keep jumping through the poison smoke areas you sometimes dont get effected at all
Great tips just got to Durin's Forge after 23 hours of gameplay love this game.
Using an ax on a tree is 100% faster, holding heavy for half a second the releasing 1 or 2 shots most trees. I hit for over 80 with an axe while the pick huts for 30. Edit
Now that I'm further the pick hits for 80 and the axe hits for 357. Axe is definitely better.
Awesome tips. You are the man. I hope to see you in the mine some day.
Thank you! I appreciate it. Good luck out there in the mines!
This game is fantastic finally was able to find the third and 4 deep. Make sure you are exploring there are a ton of hidden pathways climb and build them platforms for travel
Using the ace if you hold the attack button it will do more damage. This lets you do 50+ per hit on mobs and more importantly trees. It’s super quick and takes usually 2 hits
From my experience with Black Diamonds, I wasn’t getting any until I unlock the codex entry for it (may have been a wizards mark, cannot remember), the moment I got it, was getting multiple BD per chest almost every time. Had opened a lot before then with none dropping. (First playthrough, campaign, currently at lower depths)
one thing is all that wood/stone/coal stack. the resource you use isn't a waste but it will already be in the stack.
so you didn't lose any material and save like 3 slot from your storage box
The first charge attack with the axe is amazing better than the second charge attack in my opinion
Amazing video!!! Great tips to follow!! Thank you!!
Thank you for the support. Happy to be of help!
The storage pallets are not expensive the Cost of the material in question is placed on the pallet though i do agree that they take up space
The pallets arent expensive at all really they only cost the the item you are trying to put on them. Like chests all costs wood.
6:24 plus, destroying these disables respawn for the mobs
If you get deeper and reach the actual mines area, you can reach another hidden level if you build down platforms. (and no I do not mean the elevator)
I managed to discover a whole area after I contsructed 20 is platforms down from a dead end room. (or what it seemd like) and the "new" area was in the same layout than those above it. (on the map)
Dang, that's awesome, I'll have to go back and see if my world has that or something like it. All worlds are different and randomly generated
Wait, is it before dñthe crystal deeps?
@@PrimitiveNomad This learning adventure is same for everyone, up to flooded passage i think
Yes @@ulisesmuro7884
game is now on sale and well worth picking up for a bargain price. I got it for $17.
You can throw the pipe piece up there. It might take a few times.
Is there a way to get more elven wood ?
Glad to see someone else using the barrel roll jump haha +1
I like the game so far, it's a little jank and simple. One of the big issues is no real progression for the character. There's no levels or XP or skills or anything (or at least not that I see). So killing enemies is pretty useless and waste of time IMO. Other than meat, enemies don't seem to drop anything.
I would agree with this. Fighting enemies is useless unless you need specific items. Leather, meat, etc. But yeah, as of now, there is no real threat or point to them.
@@PrimitiveNomad - Shame I like the game but it could have been a lot better. Will still play though. I just got to that Elven area last night.
Coming across this a year later, I would add, the Pallets are more viable now as their stack size was increased.
im playing campaign and im trying to kill the octopus but i try shooting it with a bow and it says it needs stronger shots but everytime i hold the button to charge the shot nothing happens and ive tried restarting the game several times and nothing fixes it so i literally cant progress without doing it
You need to get a stronger bow and arrows and keep progressing to unlock higher tier gear. You just found the boss too early, which is okay. Mine up and upgrade.
Btw on trees use a battleaxe it does 200 dmg on a full charge so u can one shot the trees
The Pallets for keeping Ore and wood on Cost nothing to make. it uses 5 of the item it holds, but u can then get it back when u make it leaving a empty pallet on the floor to use.
how are pallets expensive??? They dont actually use the resources. It puts what resource it says you need on it when its built so it really cost nothing at all.
I got mad one time because one of the orc flags dropped its key and it disappeared into the ground, so I smashed the orc chest with the pickaxe and got all the loot from inside it. I mean, I assume I did but hard to say for sure. Dunno if it'd work with low-tier tools, though.
Yeah that has happened to me, you can destroy them with almost any tool, they just have a huge health pool
I feel like I’m stuck in this game. I made the belegost forge but the door to the next section is closed.
I have yet to find emeralds or iron wood. Any tips?
Ironwood is discovered later on, or even from orc drops. Emeralds will be in mined deposits, chest, or found from orcs during raids. Don't sleep on raids they grant good resources if the RNG is there
How exactly do you mark your map? I can't find any option to do so.
open the map and press x to mark where you are
@@almore78 no wonder it says X TO MARK LOCATION lmao. I was tying to click on it! Ty ty
Mind that map is 2D and world is 3D so your mark will be on spot of maybe 3 layers
@@mateuszmorawiecki2729 whenever youre looking at the map you can see the legend or key on the left side and click any of the markers and toggle the "eye" on them to see exactly where and how far they are from you, usefull when traversing the deeps
No keys are needed for orc chests, just break them open and all the loot inside will drop out. Sometimes the orc keys despawn for me when they drop, so i smacked those boxes open with me pickaxe!
Nice! 👍🏽 I don't agree with the palettes though they are a great quality of life improvement. Especially when you end up going back to prior outposts to gather some of the iron you were hoarding.
Your method works great, too, especially when back tracking. Cheers💚🤟🏼
THanks for the tips, new player here. Just made my first base And found the first forge in campaign.
I have 2 questions.
1. Am I supposed to manually carry my stash from base to base or is there an easier way?
2. I picked campaign but was wondering if sandbox is better or worse?
The name of the game is to have more than one base. Each area hosts materials you'll need, so just build new bases and use your storage to transport between them. You will eventually be able to build and teleport between bases.
The story is better, in my opinion. First off, get accustomed to the game, then do sandbox for fun after!
Thank you for the support, I'm glad these tips have helped! 💛🤟🏼
Thank you For the response, it was taking a while to get from base to base and was worried. Do I have to make a trip to each location in order to setup the fast travel or will it already have a linked system?
@mrman-yj3bn you have to link them, and they only go to one location. The idea would be to have two next to each other so they create a chain. I recommend putting them in bases and areas with a high recourse yeild
Thank you a ton! I'm now in the mushroom area but can't use my pick axe on any ores yet. I was pretty confident I got all the statues but now I'm worried I'm supposed to have the 3rd pick axe by now.
Do you find more prebuilt bases going foward or was that just for the start?
NOTE: Something that burned me...before trying to pick up the orc key....make SURE you have an empty inventory slot. If you do not, you may run into a bug (like I did) where it said I picked it up, but I did not....and so one of the orc chests is forever locked now. :(
So i fixed and started Narvi's forge but never got the steel ingot recipe:( any ideas why it didnt work? Im stuck wiout a steel pick
This is a bug that was in the game since launch. It can occur sometimes with any recipe. Either a hot fix will come or try and find the statues to progress other recipes. Worse case you may need to restart
@@PrimitiveNomad thanks!
I've been playing the game the moment it was released and downloaded. I truly love the amount of work and effort that goes into these tip videos from so many different creators, and I watch them constantly. But seriously... how do so few of you know how to say "hearth"?
Its pronounced hARth. Like heart. Like your organ. but with a 'th' on the end. Just kinda funny that you are like the ninth youtuber ive watched that says "hERth".
British vs. American English is why.
I hope they increase the buff time outs some.
nice video and all, but most of these ARE mentioned in the game, especially the first half of your tips and tricks. Also not all map stones need a black diamond in the game, most but not all. Again also, using chests instead of pallets makes inventory management way more of a pain for materials like that, also the pallets only use what the pallet is for to build it and what was used is on the pallet when built
This is completely off topic but has anyone figured out how to enter special characters like û or à in character and world names?
I have not and was actually trying to figure this out. I think you'd need to set up a keyboard for it to register
I just googled and copy paste the characters. Took a while but it worked haha
Great video
Cheers, thank you. I'm glad it was helpful!💚🤟🏼
I hope for future content an updates/changes for this game
Same here, I'm sure a lot is going to come to the game. Expanding on the building and mining overall
I'm in the same boat can't wait for what this game has to offer with future updates.
i might be bugged.. my small goblins do not drop anything
Sometimes, the enemies won't drop anything it's random, the enemies that appear from a raid will have a higher chance at dropping items
ahh ok. yea I turned on the massive forge and like 15 small goblins and 4 large ones and 2 orcs came out of no where.. i was outta there so fast
@@PrimitiveNomad
I honestly just wish we could disable death loot drop
This would be a good mechanic to make the game a lot more pressing. Making losing gear more of a thing we think about.
@PrimitiveNomad Yeah I get that just me and my wife like games like this but sometimes we wanna do a more calm run and if we die we just wanna respawn and not have to run and grab our loot bags every time
That makes sense too, maybe they will have an option implemented at some point or an easier mode for a more relaxed playthrough.
@PrimitiveNomad Me personally I wanna crank up the enemies by like two notches and leave everything else the same, disable death loot drop, and that's my perfect playthrough
gold pile gives a buff too
The pickaxe can't be enchanted for ironwood 😊
the palettes are not worth imo. It takes space for 4 chests and fits 3 stacks or so while in a chest you can hoard like 20 stacks and it take 1/4 the space and is taken out quicker.
Or break the orkish chest , get full loot
This is true, just the time it takes to break the chest vs the banner that is right next to it, is to great lol
I don't get why inventory is so crazy limited to 2 little rows.....even visibly wearing a backpack. That's rough. Also noted no visiable way to tell enemy's health. Hopefully they fix that. Still excited for when this game is off Epic and available...
Later on, there are backpack upgrades that expand the inventory drastically. I agree that once it's not limited to the one store, the game will grow even more.
The 2 rows you're referring to ARE the backpack. If you unequip your backpack or if you die and lose it.. the only inventory you have is your main tool bar at the bottom. And as he said.. you learn to make bigger ones later.
@@Ritho26 that's brutal and bad haha, but thanks for clarifying
There is a recipe fairly early on for an Explorer's backpack . . . it expands the Scout bp's limit of 8 slots, to 25 slots. Much better for carrying a ton of stuff!
There is some good info here but I think a lot of stuff must have changed since the time you made this.
Thank you. Yeah, I believe some of the things have changed now that it's been a while.
Palettes definitely hold way more than a chest does, especially when you look at trying to store multiple types of items, also I have seen no instance of fall damage, I've purposefully jumped from some really high locations to test that and haven't taken damage yet though that doesn't mean that roll ability isn't really cool, never noticed it before, I did notice though if you are jumping from a higher ledge at a mob/creature you can do a special drop attack also which does slightly more crit damage.
Yeah I jump off everything and take 0 fall damage so far
I climbed up 30+ fathoms in the Western halls and jumped down to get back to base for rest. Took 100pts of fall damage and my buddy had to pick me back up.
You can for sure take fall damage. I am assuming you are still in the tutorial area. Once you get to the large mine you will need to make paths to the bottom. If you fall off you will die.
I've actually died today from fall damage, but it was really really deep fall like 50 fathoms or more maybe
@@SmickyD huh, neat. I've only made it up to the elven area and just repaired the forge so maybe that's why I haven't had and area tall enough to take damage from. Well, I guess I'll retract my no fall damage statement then rofl, my apologies heh.
Great tips. Appreciate no apoilers
I have to disagree with your stance on pallets they are free the resources used to make them come already stored on the pallet. You can stack them right on top of each other once you've filled one pallet up i also place my ingot pallets above my head so I can place chests below them. I enjoyed the video though and it was informative I'll employ some of these things.
I'm not your pal, lets 🎉
Thanks for the refresher!
i played until I got to elvish forge.. and dropped the last part in the water (i got lost getting back) died.. and it didn't respawn back at original location.. so... deleted world 😱😂
Lol, this is the way to go sometimes, spawning far from where you died and not wanting to trek back, just reset and go again lol🤣
That's why it gives you the pattern to forge your own parts. They already thought about that ahead of time.
@@Ritho26 thats what i did with 1 of the parts, because i didn't find it. I crafted it... and found the original part later :x
Good guide, except that you are wrong about the pallets. I know wood stacks very high on a pallet, but it is the only resource that stacks that high. The great things about pallets is that you can actually stack pallets on top of other pallets, so they actually save alot of space and hold waaaaay more than chests.
while pallets holding metals are much more space efficient then wood, they still 5 to 10 times worse than a single chest. and you can fit 2-3 chests in a place of one pallet, so they should only be used for aestetic purposes
The pallets are not expensive and they are great. Dont know why discarding them is an actual tip?
Pallets are certainly not expensive. They cost nothing to build.
The whole time you are telling us to use the pickaxe for wood your video showed you 1 shotting trees with an axe... what gives?
Not all tress and axes do that much damage, plus that's a heavy attack, and it consumes a lot of stamina. I was just showing the difference between the two.
Axe charge attack one shots trees
I'm just gonna assume the whole game is underground =/
Yes
this video would have been much more useful if you showed what you were talking about
Tips you should know 1) dont play the game. While your out exploring, the game will randomly destroy your base without any warning, makeing building or keeping anything completely pointless! Yayyyyyyy!!
The multi player is abysmal though. Glitchy as hell and game breaking bugs...
That doesn't sound fun. So far, I've played completely in multiplayer, and I've had no issues
Also you can shift click items to save dragging from bag to bag
Yes, you can move full stacks or any amount you want
The game was annoying for me. I kept getting killed in the beginning by the wolves
Take is slower and avoid till you build up, learn the roll mechanic for evasion. You got this!
Pallets are better and free
Buffs come from drinking not eating silly lol, you get buffs from completing ranger books and you get more when finishing the kings brewery.
Bro it's not competitive build the pallets the fk
Hearth is pronounced "harth", not like earth.
@@wanderingskeptic Nobody pronounces heart ❤️ "hurt" so not sure why people pronounce it "hurth".
"Tips & Tricks the game doesn't tell you!"
First tip
"The little platform the game taught you about at the beginning..."
God I hate that this is what every gaming tips video is like these days lol
I've got a tip for you. Once you are deep into the game it will simply delete your world save. Trash game.
Something must have changed in the last year. repairing thing takes less than building them from scratch. Repairing a warp stone take only one back diamond building one takes 3. to repair a hearth you do not have to have coal. Very helpful early game.
