I’m hooked on this game. Laughed watching some of these videos when people have defeated the bosses by day 100. I’m on 162 and still having fun on my first seed lmao. Love everything you can do, as well as how the game punishes you for doing it sometimes lol.
Gonna go out on a limb here and say that when first exploring the Plains, queue up Eikthier. No matter your level, being able to get out fast is just about as important as getting in.
@@aarepelaa1142jumping right before they attack is an efficient way to “out run” them since they run off and double back. But there’s next to nothing you can do about them when your fighting a horde
For those who are a bit more confident in their melee combat, the atgeir tears through the plains with the spin attack being a rather strong aoe stumble. Good for those who are.. less patient and running solo, though will take much more careful stamina management
Watching now, and I really like this! I love that you add info from a speedrunner’s perspective and we can get some more advanced tips or rather alternative routes around. Very in depth.
@@bmohr9826 no one is born skilled its something you have to learn so that just sounds like an excuse to not try because the less skilled option is easier
Just one lil addition: wolf skewer is also a great HP food at this stage of the game. It can replace the serpent stew (which is a quite costly food, BTW). If you manage to tame and breed wolves, that can give unlimited access to their drops, including meat.
I hope more people begin to play Valheim, I had a friend buy it for me when it came out and I just didn’t give it enough of a chance, but I started playing two weeks ago and I’m at 100 hours lmao, idk if the death mechanics changed or what, did your stuff used to disappear? Not sure why I’m so much more hooked this time. I just remember losing all my stuff like twice last time not being able to get it back and quitting. I just hope they don’t take too long in ash lands and deep north so the game can be fully released and it will shine, I definitely think they need more ocean content/islands some kinds of crypts to make sailing more interesting since everyone complains about transporting metal but I love it, I just think it would be cool if eventually you can use the boss trophies on the portals the transfer the next level of metal minus never being able to portal the current tier of metal but all the previous ones if you have the bosses defeated but either way I’ll be happy as I enjoy the sailing I just want more reasons to stop and explore, they could definitely add more foods and maybe another set of mid game gear from like turtle hide or shark skin or something
@@sirsilco I was off for a week to have a baby and before that I had alot more time even with full time job lol now maybe 20 hours a week which is killing me
great guide! I feel like you left out the tactics aspect of fighting yag legit; which is mainly, identifying his attack animations and dodging the meteors with the stone fingers. weathering the blue aoe dot is the best time to get dmg in, if you have the stam/hp. Also, a bit more on tar pits would have been good as they can be gruesome. Aggroing fulings into tar pits is an excellent way to wipe camps and tar pits; provided there are tar pits nearby.
Really helpful video coming in late to Valheim. One thing to mention is the fire resistance from the Fenris armor doesn't stack with Barley Wine. Resistance effects in general do not stack in this game and if you have multiple active you get the effect of the stronger one.
I always keep a huntsman bow while clearing fuling villages right after or before moder. Huntsman bow makes less sound so the fulings next to the one you shoot wont notice you, makes it a lot easier.
Avoiding deathsquitoes is bad advice for those new to plains. You do not want to be in a position where you're kiting 3-4 fulings looking for a spot to safely shoot them and you get stunned from behind the deathsquito you tried to go around earlier. Dispose of threats as you see them.
Pro tip for spending less calories on pronouncing "vegviser" (this is one of several correct pronounciations) : "Vay-visa". The "g" can be turned in to an ay sound, and the "r" can be muted for simplicity. That way, you're not juggling consonants at the end of syllables, which makes it a much simpler word.
I accidentally discovered the burning trick with abominations. I had dug out a surtling spawner and wanted to pick up coal on my way away from it because I can’t parry it lol. Turns out it started burning itself on the fire as I hid behind an adjoining tree in shock and horror
Killin Abominations is pretty easy regardless of Equip. All you need is a Bow, a Pickaxe and probally a Hoe. Find a Surtling Flame, lower it down till you have ankle-deep Watrer (not more, you need the Movement unimpeded later. The Water will kill all spawning Surtlings fast - and you can kite the Abomination over the Flame to kill it superfast (40 Damage per second). And the Root harnesk may be nice, but it grants weakness towards Fire - which some Fuling (Goblins) have, onehitting you. - The Dragon Helmet is great as it has good Armor and no Movement Penalty. Else, I really learned to love the Fenris Armor from the Mountain Dungeons - the added Movement is insaneley useful in the plains. - Deathskitos can easily be onehitted by a well timed attack when they charge before they can do anything. - Also, a Serpent Shield may be heavy, but get compensated with Fenris Armor - plus offer Pierce Resist without downside. You even move outside the Fuling attacks by just walking back, allowin the thrust-counters to go in. - Always have the best Bow you can have and a trusty Sword.
great tips, thanks. always wondered why maces did extra damage to blobs. shouldn't pierce handle that role better than blunt? oh well...off to the plains. not looking forward to deathsquitos
Bro, I was in the plains while watching this and you were talking about wearing the root armor piece to prevent Deathsquito damage and so the sounds were playing in the video, and I didn't hear a Deathsquito sneak up on me and hit me for half my health 😭
Actually they are easy to evade. When a growth stops to spit tar on you, sprint aside and then run it down and finish it with your decent Frostner. It is easy now for growths will stay stationary for 5 secs after their attack. Root mask can also help to reduce their poison effect, should you be hit by them. Important: once they hit you, don't try to run away. You have a very slight chance for that. Be aggressive, run them down, that is your only real chance.
The growths indeed suck lol, like the shamans. You can sneak up to them and two shot them and slow them tremendously with draugr fang bow and frost arrows. My entire kit is geared towards frost on the plains because of how much it slows everything. Frost arrows and Frostner put in work lol.
Bro never mentioned you can only grow flax and barley in plains, i wasted so much growing them in my main base in meadows😭, would've made base near plains if i knew instead of upgrading old one
As @tamarackgaming mentioned just below me - when you go to the Plains, just make sure you can run OUT of the Plains very easily. In fact? Just don't ever go to the Plains. Like Camelot - "'Tis a silly place". XD
an other nice and funny trick is to walk with the abomination into a troll. I gave the Abomintion some hits while he was fighting against the trall and they died together.
All the swamps on my world with crypts are also connected to plains. I've killed 3 deathsquitos with iron armor. I would switch worlds but I also have a maypole on my world
I had whole root armor and mosquito still killed me seconds i entered the plains 😮 I'm sure I had over 100 health. Am I missing something or do I remember what happened wrong? 😅
Vids is helpful. Somm yes, some not. If this work, people can defeat Yaglut with nothing. Is not feer. :D Is only my wort. Vids is so great and y wish you good luck. Thanxk, bro.
Recommending to eat the Serpent Stew is not at all a good idea, as it's quite expensive to make and hunting for Serpents is kinda a waste of time. You should rather eat the Wolf Skewers as they are easy to make and not that much worse than the Serpent Stew. Also, why the heck would you eat the Onion Soup rather than Eyescream? Eyescream is just a better food all around and it lasts longer. It's also very cheap to make provided you haven't been thought out your Grey Dwarf eyes.
Really fucking loved this game until our server file got corrupted and we later on heard that it is a known bug for xbox. We are all completely unmotivated to start over
![BLACK BAG - Official Trailer [HD] - Only in Theaters March 14](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Du0Xp8WX_7I/mqdefault.jpg)
finding out about the root Armor vs the mosquitos has changed my life
I’m hooked on this game. Laughed watching some of these videos when people have defeated the bosses by day 100. I’m on 162 and still having fun on my first seed lmao. Love everything you can do, as well as how the game punishes you for doing it sometimes lol.
I think we hit day 180 before we were ready to hit the plains. Still haven't managed to keep farm animals alive lol
I'm about to fight Moder. On day 330ish.
I’m son day 360 something. Just killed mountain boss. Nothing more relaxing than just chopping down virtual trees in the evening.
You guys are slow. I’ve been playing very patiently and at moder day 32
day 338 and Iveonly made it to mountains, too busy exploring and getting resources for my mini base and meal/weapon prep/farming. Im in no rush
Gonna go out on a limb here and say that when first exploring the Plains, queue up Eikthier. No matter your level, being able to get out fast is just about as important as getting in.
I feel like bonemass is alot better with the dmg resistances. You can just tank quite a few hits and deathsquitos outrun you no matter what anyways.
Bonemass is a lot better I think. When you suddenly get gang by fullings, it can save you
It definitely depends on your play style but I’m with you that Eikthier is the best ability for almost any of the biomes.
That's a stupid fucking advise.. You need Bonemass, not Eikthyr
@@aarepelaa1142jumping right before they attack is an efficient way to “out run” them since they run off and double back. But there’s next to nothing you can do about them when your fighting a horde
After 5+ playtroughs i have to say, i still watch you not because i need it but because it's entertaining
I got too close to the plains while boating, and as a beginner, those damn mosquitos are hell. Almost broke my boat... 😅
That stone pillar trick is GOLD!!!! Amazing tip.
For those who are a bit more confident in their melee combat, the atgeir tears through the plains with the spin attack being a rather strong aoe stumble. Good for those who are.. less patient and running solo, though will take much more careful stamina management
True, good suggestion.
atgeir for large groups or in bad situations. frostner for everything else
Atgeir is excellent
also ooze bombs help a lot too
Watching now, and I really like this! I love that you add info from a speedrunner’s perspective and we can get some more advanced tips or rather alternative routes around. Very in depth.
My friends and I actually found Yagluth summoning altar on our way to the identified Bonemass location. We were quite surprised
I've been considering my gear to bring to the plains, and the chest piece you advise is by far the best i've seen! definitely going to be using this
Another tip for armor/shield is to get the serpent scale shield. It is very resistant to pierce and will block all damage from death squitos
Preach !
the ability to parry is just better though
@@whimsicalchronicles8798 true but not everyone is skilled
@@bmohr9826 no one is born skilled its something you have to learn so that just sounds like an excuse to not try because the less skilled option is easier
@@bmohr9826 the parry windows are so big in valheim that you don't need to be skilled lmao.
This is great Nick! Glad you were able to make this
Thank you 🙏

Except that would require for me to kill my pet doggies...
@@GavinTheGreat3700 At my Plains base, that work is done by the squitos.
Serpent stew ain't costly it's genuinely one of the easiest foods to make
@@codyt8541 Hunting them takes time, sometimes a lot. That's how I meant it being costly.
Didn’t even breed or capture wolves I’ve just got like 60 stacks of wolf meat ty
this game is fr addicting AF i grinded the game out in a month and learned everything. plains is definitely my favorite biome

Thank you for you videos and showing me the world of a Valheim btw you’re videos are probably a reason I’ve been able to enjoy the game so much
That’s amazing. You’re very welcome.
mistlands is already out and has had updates. ashlands will probably be next year tbh.
How do you have 7 hours everyday to play Valheim?
@@sirsilco I was off for a week to have a baby and before that I had alot more time even with full time job lol now maybe 20 hours a week which is killing me
Finally, somebody covered the growths. Been watching plane guides and no one covered those sound one the hard way.
getting attacked by a skeeter while on a boat is the wooooorst
great guide! I feel like you left out the tactics aspect of fighting yag legit; which is mainly, identifying his attack animations and dodging the meteors with the stone fingers. weathering the blue aoe dot is the best time to get dmg in, if you have the stam/hp.

Subbing because I'm new and your videos have been the absolute most informative and broken down I've found.
Thank you for your hard work
Great info. Thanks! I've been in the plains for a while and still got a lot out of it. Best!
nice to see you back. missed your vids and livestream
It's me that I can't find mountains guide made by you or it simply doesn't exist? I love your guide Valheim! Please do moutains too!
I always keep a huntsman bow while clearing fuling villages right after or before moder. Huntsman bow makes less sound so the fulings next to the one you shoot wont notice you, makes it a lot easier.
Fantastic video. The root armor was a fantastic tip.
Thx ! I'm terrified by plains (never done). It will really help
THANK YOU SO MUCH. you have no idea how helpful this is
I just found this presenter. Best one so far!
nice. Looks like a pretty complete plains guide to me. covered everything.
Thank you for the video, love this and the swamp one. Will you make one for the mountains?
Great primer! Well done sir; tons of useful information! My thanks for putting this together. Oh, and plus one sub!
Another great vid Nick! Keep it up
That root armor tip is huge! the deathsquito is laughable now :) thanks

Thank you
Love it Nick. Don't die to the deathsquitos.
Great video! Extremely helpful.
Thanks Nick this video is very helpful guide
Shield and a knife for deathskeetos , block the incoming attack in in while still holding block down hits your left attack button AKA light attack
Thanks for the new video!
your videos are very helpful on 2x play speed
Awsome guide for Plains!
Thanks...
Great guide man!
The bonfire trick with the abominations saved my butt several times. Thank you!
Mountains guide next please! Lets gooooo
Cheers dude really helpful video

I recommend using the huntsman bow for clearing the camps, becouse the huntsman bow hafe a lower aggrow range than any other bow.
You have to done a mountains guide? :)
Thanks for the video.
Bro, I was in the plains while watching this and you were talking about wearing the root armor piece to prevent Deathsquito damage and so the sounds were playing in the video, and I didn't hear a Deathsquito sneak up on me and hit me for half my health 😭
If you drain a tar pit does that mean the tars never respawn?
Also if you rebuild the wall does that "fix" the tar spawns?
The tar does not respawn. The growths do however.
Great Guide !
Straight up worst thing about the plains are those stupid tar blobs. They literally eviscerate your hp lmfao
Hahaha.

Hi 😊thanks for the video. I have ben to the plains but there was no tar. Do i hafe to unlock somethings first. Please help 😳
You need to make one of these for the mountains
Thanks nick 🙏🏾
Great video!
I love fighting abominations with a knife, i feel like a dark souls player mixed with crocodile Dundee
resistances don't stack, so taking barley wine and wearing the Fenris armor is redundant, only the higher resistance is considered by the game.
what music you use at 6 minute? I've been searching for this song for 4 years
Bro never mentioned you can only grow flax and barley in plains, i wasted so much growing them in my main base in meadows😭, would've made base near plains if i knew instead of upgrading old one
There are mods that let you plant them anywhere.
23:30 i found a vegvsir out of nowhere in an open meadow in the plains the other day.
a nice positive comment for the youtube algorithm
eyes cream is also an easy good stamina food
As @tamarackgaming mentioned just below me - when you go to the Plains, just make sure you can run OUT of the Plains very easily. In fact? Just don't ever go to the Plains.

Wish you'd show how to kill Yagloth without cheesing. Might as well use console commands to kill it if you're resorting to that
All the swamps on my world with crypts are also connected to plains. I've killed 3 deathsquitos with iron armor. I would switch worlds but I also have a maypole on my world
I had whole root armor and mosquito still killed me seconds i entered the plains 😮 I'm sure I had over 100 health. Am I missing something or do I remember what happened wrong? 😅
I have seen the bone hand altar every play through. For me, the grind is way worse finding the trader since so much of the map is black forest.
Best tips fr
Plains ended up being my favorite biome
That’s a nice boulder
Resistances don’t stack so Fenris armor and barley wine don’t work together you’re basically wasting wine at that point.
I heard fire resistance doesnt stack
Reminder that resistances dont stack, its whatever is better is in used when calculating defenses
Nice!
With the deathsquitos, just use a stagbreaker
A mistlands guide like this ?
My seed stayed and all my markings remained but everything i built was erased?!
forgot to actually include fighting the boss the non cheese way
Vids is helpful. Somm yes, some not. If this work, people can defeat Yaglut with nothing. Is not feer. :D Is only my wort. Vids is so great and y wish you good luck. Thanxk, bro.
Deathsquitos are 1-shottable with an Iron Atgeir.
9:48 …fully geared, in the Prairie, and you magically pop an Improved Run skill of… -> 3. Uh, huh…
deathsquitos arent the issue, if you find yourself stuck just for a second in the tar pit.. its over.
I'm here because I just absolutely VIOLATED by a large posse of growths.
Get the silver gear upgraded and you’ll be set.
Recommending to eat the Serpent Stew is not at all a good idea, as it's quite expensive to make and hunting for Serpents is kinda a waste of time. You should rather eat the Wolf Skewers as they are easy to make and not that much worse than the Serpent Stew.
