I was about to mention that also, you can approach from sides or rear just not in front. Also the deer head turning is an animation and doesn't change their line of sight.
Just started the game today. Started my first base, killed greylings every 30 seconds, fell into my chimney, and burned to death. My new favorite game.
Bro that's not bad. I started the game, and killed 2 deers right away and spawned the first boss that kept killing me with me having literally a club only. 10/10
@@RamyHaramyduuuude. I cannot even explain how frustrating that was for me because I did the exact same thing. I was screwed. First, I didn't expect the deer to just instantly spawn as soon as I activated it. I thought it was lead up to it a bit more or something. All's I had was a flint axe. I died. I thought no biggie. I respawned. My base was probably about 300-400 meters away from the boss spawn. I didn't think the boss would be still hanging around. I ran to the area and I received my gear. I thought I could run away and recover a bit. So I ran to my base. Big mistake, the damn thing followed me all the way there. Started wrecking my base. Killed me again. boop, respawned RIGHT IN FRONT OF IT. It was an endless cycle. I couldn't even get away quick enough. My stamina was too low, even if managed to get my gear I literally had no time to equip anything! I tried reloading a save from my last play a couple days ago but it just wouldn't work for whatever reason. So I had literally had to find a way to win. I managed to get it away from my base and I got to a big rock and I had it chasing my round and round. I had to bait it into an attack so I could get a hit or two off and then run again. I noticed whenever it did either of the two shock attacks it wouldnt attack a second time in a row so that was my window. So running around a rock and hitting it once or twice every now and again. If it hit my once, my health would drop so low I would have to stop attacking and run around the rock until it slowly went back up which took forever. I finally won in the end. Probably took a solid 15 mins. Honestly the game is good but when it comes to dying it's so brutal. The fact that you lose an ability is stupid too. It's way to punishing.
The hoe is the most underrated item in the game. Use it instead of the pickaxe to free copperore and find treasure chests. Just stand on the lowest point of ground and flatten away. Use it to raise ground and make easy walkable paths in the swamp. Use it tu undermine structures and rocks for easy deconstruction. Use it to raise a dirthill underneath you for quick safety in a tight spot. Use it to flatten out an elevated area to better combat certain mobs. Use it to expand small islands or even create artificial onces to build your base on to avoid most raids and events. the hoe is a tier 6 item that you can make with wood and stone from lvl 1 - learn how to use it and all its tricks and features.
Unfortunately a large amount of terraforming causes lag in said area from what I’ve heard. So while you are 100% correct, that is one apparent drawback.
Big tip you missed - you can quickly identify if a food is stamina, health, or balanced by the color of the fork on the food's icon. Yellow = Stamina. Red = Health. White = Balanced. The fork under your food bar will tell you which stat your food combination favors
for the burried chest, don't bother digging. Just hit the ground with the stagbreaker and repeat when you see some damages. U'll destroy the chest and the items will be dragged on the surface. it save some time !
Number 1 tip for this game is your resting bonus, build the comforts so you get the max possible and when it runs out make sure to rest and get it again, it improves everything and the 50% ex bonus will make you tougher, faster, stronger alot quicker.
@@sanjayw9878I get that, which is why I said it was my personal thought...I've had too many instances where I play with friends that just no-life a game more than I care too with an adult life, and I come back to just learn everything by mouth without ever experiencing it myself. I know others like to know everything they can asap, but to me and I'm sure some others, experiencing it yourself randomly is far more immersive
@@sanjayw9878 (2) that said, I still watch these kind of videos long after playing a game just to see if I missed anything that may interest me. But I would still tell completely new players to avoid these kinds of vids until at least an hour or 2 into the game first. But ya, everyone is different
This is how I play. I barely watch anyone until I'm well into a zone. Finding my own way. Then when I'm tired of wasting my time I look up a video like this or a "conquer the plains type video" @@ScarryHarry93
Yes exactly. This game is best experienced knowing very little about it. Of course going thru a tip guide isn't a bad idea after a few hours but so many of my great moments are from this game Surprising me because I didn't know what was coming next and slowly piecing together how the systems worked was also extremely satisfying
Also, if you cut a tree, you can repeatedly push it into trees too hard for you to chop, and knock them down that way. Similarly you can get the tree and it's stump to turn into wood by smashing them into rocks, trees and other logs or stumps. It's handy for getting rid of birch or oak trees near your building zone during early game.
@@Bjoern_Weberits not if its destroyed by creatures, im pretty sure he means things like natural damage, where deconstructing it while its low health would drop less. im not 100% sure about this though.
Caves - The fire inside the entrance is a great tip, but OUTSIDE you can put a Workbench in the ENTRANCE of the cave. Caves make great quick early game homes, the rock is indestructible, just make strong walls ands a door. I also put portals there later on, fast jump to an area. Portals - One silly trick to keep them safe is put them on a roof and some stairs up outside the house. Weird, but it works, LOL.
I have also dug a massive trench around my house and fell into it and died, and once i think been ran over by my own cart. "Stupid deaths, stupid deaths, hope the next one isn't... Mine"
One of my favorite things about this game is that nothing you repair will cost you anything additional and items don't get destroyed out of your inventory. One of my least favorite things about this game are the Greylings/Greydwarfs/Shamens/and Brutes SPECIFICALLY how they are coded to fight you. The Greylings seem to run away if you just look their direction, and always want to hit you from behind which is aggravating when you're mining or gathering rss around the world. Brutes can be fought easily enough with a good shield, but the accompaniment of a Shamen means that every enemy near it will heal on repeat making what looks like a small fight take longer than it needs to.
I found this video very helpful. I've been playing for several hours now, and I had no clue about most of the things that you mentioned. I do not understand some of these negative comments, you made an excellent video and your tips were very useful. Thank you!
Not really. The stagbreaker is easier to get and easier to understand. The wishbone can be annoying plus it takes up space and all you need is a mejingjord
Once I have a decent base I stop break world generation structures. Instead I make them liveable and use them as rest stops between base and resources. On one server we had like 300 little rest stops dotted along our massive road network. Very useful when carting ore home and it gets dark or rains. Personally I like overhauling the busted stone towers in meadows, especially along the coastlines. Always turn those into small harbours.
I just started this game and I have to say it’s really good so far. The building and everything has been so intuitive that I was able to get really far into a base build without having to look anything up. I’m at the point now where I’m trying to get some tips but overall this game is really well designed because you can figure it out and have a good time playing almost completely blind
On #44, I suggest you try out the flint spear. It can be thrown for hunting deer and birds. This allows to fully skip the first bow. The spear also has low stamina usage, a fast attack, and good damage, especially when upgraded to level 3
@@spaceitself flint spear can be used all the way into the swamp if its fully upgraded. First thing I do in any world is gather 65 flint for all the workbench upgrades and a level 4 spear. My weapon progression for maximum tryhard/efficiency is flint spear > get Stagbreaker > Iron Mace > Fang Spear then I go whichever direction I want with silver/black metal
I've been playing since the game came out and tbh I never even noticed the raft/boat stopping when you jumped off! xD This is a great video! Especially the rolling. *Queue darksouls flashbacks*
Copper Nodes. I was playing for quite a while before I figured out that by mining down, you could place down a fire and get Sheltered at the same time if you did it right. Since Sheltered also lets Workbench work, you really didn't have to leave until just before the node disintegrated. Also found out that fires also disperse that annoying fog that shows up when digging in the Black Forest.
56. You can put a pin with the name of your portal to remember them and where they go. 57. You can have a single portal at your base, and just rename it to link to your portals in the field. 58. Trolls are easy if you have a bow and good stanima. Fire arrows a plus. 59. You can move metal through a portal by having a second world with your spawn point by a chest. Gather metal, leave game, enter server 2, put metal in chest,. Go back to server 1, go through portal to base. Leave to server 2 and retrieve metal. Return to server 1. BAM!
I very much dislike the metal world hopping. Directly against the game design. I prefer to play the game the way it was intended, setting up forward mining bases and working for it. Makes the reward and the pay off much more rewarding. But to each their own.
Yes, and it's not even it's head, but the direction its body is facing that is it's line of sight. It can bite its own butt with you right behind it and still not see you
I wish i knew you had to haul the dragon eggs to summon Moder, i went all the way to the Moder altar only to realize you have to place dragon eggs in it, which i had left home, halfway across the map
10:13 I don't remember where I heard of this, nor did I test it yet myself. But apparently, glowing mushrooms can respawn in dungeons you have already cleared.
To quickly dispatch Abominations in the Swamp, make sure you have a sword of some description on you, the higher tier and upgrade level the better. As the Abomination is spawning and going through it's animation of climbing out the Swamp, run towards it as fast as you can so you're right in front of it's central body and spam the alternate attack for the sword, the long lunge & stab, with a high level sword you can one-shot them this way as it does a few hundred damage. This ends the fight very quickly!
@@PredatorChin really easy to repair a level 3 flint axe or antler pickaxe when you're out and about as well. Just drop a bench and put a roof over like in the video. If you have bronze stuff, you need a forge to repair.
@@Monkeyman-qt1sm Yes it does. I literally did it just a week ago. And the silver one I did today. You can break a whole silver node if you expose the whole thing, but not copper nodes. You can only break large chunks at a time with the copper
@@RandomNorwegianGuy. not even small chunks of copper work for me. And honestly it takes longer to mine all the way around anyway, just hit the silver and move on to the next piece. I tried it like 2 days ago and can confirm it doesn’t work. And if it does it’s not for me and not worth the time trying
A quick couple more tips for the food. You can eat the same food after half its duration has passed and the hud will indicate this as the food will start flashing.
Good advice. Except #49… that’s the worst advice possible. I took leather gear and bronze weapons into the swamp, because I upgraded. Find what you like and use it.
The deer hunting upwind seems to not be implemented / removed in the current version it does not matter if you are upwind or not . All that seems to matter is if you are behind it or not
Oh, be careful. I threw dragon egg down from mountain, right besides skeleton burial chamber, than trough portal to base and than back to take egg but it was gone. Probably skeletons stolen it. Bastards!
@@7heavenfist572 Tbh, eggs aren't that important, I find 1-3 on every mountain I visit, everytime I go there, I don't even know what to do with so many eggs, besides deco
@@7heavenfist572Ah, yes decoration is important, I have one in my room in my base too, also I tried the workbench thing and items can really disappear, that's 'interesting'
the misinformation is as well. deer, and all other enemies, cant smell you. and even if they could, being upwind of them would mean they are downwind of you. which means the wind is carrying your smell to them... Upwind is the air version of upstream. you would want to be downwind of the deer if they could smell you, but they cant so it doesnt matter. He wasnt very clear with the difference between the resting and rested buff, (resting is being near a fire AND sheltered, theres no time limit on it either. Rested is the buff you get after being in the rested state for 20 seconds and lasts for a duration after leaving the fire and/or shelter) a new player might not understand what he was saying. When he was talking about adding decoration to increase comfort rating he also should have mentioned that only one thing from each category provides a bonus: a stool, chair and bench all provide one point but are in the same category so even if you have all three you only get one point. the thrones are in the same category and provide three points, so are the better option once you can make them. same logic applies to rugs, banners and beds
started playing Valheim once i got my steamdeck (it runs pretty well at medium locked 40fps) use a bow aggro a troll to fight skeletons, the troll will leave you alone to fight the bone bois bonus if you find a stone encampment you can where the troll cant reach you
Harvesting Trees - @Krystopher Johnson is right, rolling trees into each other is a fast way to get wood, but there's a couple other tricks - Cut a tree at the top of an incline too gain speed, the momentum increases the hit amount. Then and roll it back up the incline as far as possible and release. You can clear a pretty large area like that. Also - use a Fine Wood tree as the logger, it lasts longer, so do one 1st.
I had to stop playing Valheim for a bit it was wayyy to laggy on the one s but now I got the series s and I’m so happy that I can play Valheim again with no lag this time
To use a workbench, in addition to a roof it also needs to be sheltered from the wind, or you you will get a message that it's too exposed. Once you've successfully used it once it no longer matters which way the wind is blowing though.
I know this is a year old now but just for other new players who maybe see this comment and agree, there are multiple different snapping options and it’s super easy once you understand it, idk if they had the different snapping options when this comment was made
Also, 2:46 - shown example is poor - you'll pretty much NEVER break a copper rock in one go because there's always going to be a terrain spike in the center that you can't reach by going under it. It's much easer with silver though
@@nelsonhemstreet3568 I have literally same problem. I haven't found any copper ore that would let me to dig under it to disconnect it from the ground.
I just killed Eikthyr and still learning here, what did you say on #17, you dug all the way around a big copper deposit and then said something about getting it all at once? Thanks for the help
If you dig all the way around the copper deposit and it isn't touching anything you should be able to break the entire deposit in one hit with your pickaxe.
Elsewhere I've heard that the tip about deer smelling you if you're upwind from them is false. I've snuck up on them repeatedly without ever worrying about wind direction.
Do Not Use A Bow On Beehives (you’re only guaranteed to get the queen bee if you use a workbench to destroy the wood supporting it and you’ll need honey for the mead it can take up to 10 full honey for just one mead)
I didn't know you could repair items! I played for probably 10 hrs before i realized it, and just made new tools and weapons when the durability ran out... turns out im an idiot lmao
What I learned about the Workbenches you place around to widen your base building area and prevent enemy spawning: Don't leave them unsheltered... they will wear and tear. It's enough to build walls 2 long and 1 wide, covered by (my preference, to target it if I need fast repairs!) the 45 degree ridge. This shelters the Workbench from the weather AND allows repairs.
i prefer diggin a hole in the ground to put them in, use the hoe to raise the land, you can leave a lil bit of workbench sticking out and it won't destory, cultivate to make the grass appear on top of it and you got a uninhibited land radius to build upon with mob spawn preventing, i typically do this under the foundation of my home so i dont see 5-6 diff workbenches, and just leave 1 main one with the addons in the base
@@sneekyshot1 I've noticed in recent patches with Valheim... things move up and down as you mine down or raise the ground. So I believe doing this wouldn't work as efficently anymore.
@@raevmanigotnoskills5837 works pretty well currently on the test realm, never had a problem with them being destroyed after being placed unless a troll smashes the ground, or lox smash.
Biggest pushback I have is sitting has nothing to do with resting buff. You can stand, sit, even run and still get rested buff. Dunno bout console but that's how PC is
Question, do skeletons keep respawning in burial caves? I feel like i keep killing them and they are coming back. Just a never ending wave of skeletons.
only if there's a spawner; it's a purple sparkly campfire, which is good if you want to farm bones for upgraded leather/cape if you find there's too many, you can destroy the spawner from ranged with a bow
@@RW77777777 thank you. Yes I found that out once I went deeper. I have another question for you. I'm on iron age some I'm messing about in the swamps. Whenever I start doing lots of damage to an abomination he runs away. Is that normal? I'm playing on Xbox which isn't very powerful so things load a little slow sometimes. Because of that when he runs away and I chase him he gets away. I'll do loops around the area and only find Abominations with full health. So besides traping on in a pit I'm not sure how to kill them.
I got to tip 15 before I had to stop the video. It's such a rough sound for some people, especially with the frequency of use for each tip, had 3-4 in a 10 second time and I felt like someone was ringing a bell directly in my ear.
little late i know but they meant the color of the damage text. white numbers is neutral, grey means your attacks arent effective and yellow means they are extra effective
Downloaded on Xbox right before this video dropped lol Update: currently struggling to kill deer because I suck at using the bow, even with the tips given in this video. Also have not discovered how to make a pickaxe or flint knife yet. Otherwise the game is fun. Had to use some junky methods to make my starter base before I could acquire the hoe. But it is functional to say the least
The tip about hunting deer is incorrect. They sense you based on line of sight not smell.

8:54 wait what really??? That’s a very cool mechanic!
not sure why it was included… it’s a myth, deer only detect on line of sight just like any other mob
im not sure about this one^^
@@MikeGrau0hr I'm just too thick to use it haha :D
I wish i knew you had to haul the dragon eggs to summon Moder, i went all the way to the Moder altar only to realize you have to place dragon eggs in it, which i had left home, halfway across the map
10:13 I don't remember where I heard of this, nor did I test it yet myself. But apparently, glowing mushrooms can respawn in dungeons you have already cleared.
2:45 'single hit'? :O
also #54 - loot like mushrooms do respawn in dungeons - tresures do not
Go to a group of trees, hit them all 3-4 times, then chop down the tree in the middle and watch as the forest cuts all the wood for you
To quickly dispatch Abominations in the Swamp, make sure you have a sword of some description on you, the higher tier and upgrade level the better. As the Abomination is spawning and going through it's animation of climbing out the Swamp, run towards it as fast as you can so you're right in front of it's central body and spam the alternate attack for the sword, the long lunge & stab, with a high level sword you can one-shot them this way as it does a few hundred damage. This ends the fight very quickly!
I respectfully disagree with #49. Upgrade your primary equipment as much as you can afford.
I am noob. Why would you upgrade certain things if you can make better ones later? Can u explain?
@@PredatorChin because you need decent gear to get the resources to make the better ones!
@@PredatorChin also, the upgrade increases the durability and damage dealt.
@@nelsonhemstreet3568 ok thx will keep that in mind
@@PredatorChin really easy to repair a level 3 flint axe or antler pickaxe when you're out and about as well. Just drop a bench and put a roof over like in the video. If you have bronze stuff, you need a forge to repair.
Copper nodes are super inconsistent to destroy in one hit. Ever since Hearth and Home, they’ve made it FAR more difficult to use this tactic.
I'm pretty sure it doesn't work anymore. It will just float sadly
@@Monkeyman-qt1sm Large sections of it will break, instead of the whole thing. But it still works for the most part with silver nodes
@@RandomNorwegianGuy. it most definitely does not work even in chunks, havnt tested silver but if copper is fixed I assume silver is the same
@@Monkeyman-qt1sm Yes it does. I literally did it just a week ago. And the silver one I did today. You can break a whole silver node if you expose the whole thing, but not copper nodes. You can only break large chunks at a time with the copper
@@RandomNorwegianGuy. not even small chunks of copper work for me. And honestly it takes longer to mine all the way around anyway, just hit the silver and move on to the next piece. I tried it like 2 days ago and can confirm it doesn’t work. And if it does it’s not for me and not worth the time trying
Great video. Played for 200 hours and still learned few things
New xbox player! Playing on Series X and this was the video needed such a newbie 🤣 thankyou!
The Stagbreaker can break buried chests from the surface, and their contents will pop up out of the ground
The 55 ding noises was a nauseating choice
This game makes pressing the dig button, once a second, for thirty minutes, satisfying. Good job developers.
Good tips, ding sound per tip is a bit grating, please forego it next vid.
A quick couple more tips for the food.
You can eat the same food after half its duration has passed and the hud will indicate this as the food will start flashing.
Funny how I used to watch your Grounded shorts. I though valhiem seemed weird or dumb. Now that I've played it, I'm hooked. Here I am again lol
Thank you, very concise
Good advice. Except #49… that’s the worst advice possible. I took leather gear and bronze weapons into the swamp, because I upgraded. Find what you like and use it.
2:10 First repair the buildables before destroying to get all the materials, I'm told reduced health buildables give back less resources
The deer hunting upwind seems to not be implemented / removed in the current version it does not matter if you are upwind or not . All that seems to matter is if you are behind it or not
The work bench preventing things from spawning is great to know!! Thank you
Turn that dinging now of so annoying left after 15 dings
I have heard multiple times now that items can despawn, but they never did that for me, regardless of where I left them
Oh, be careful. I threw dragon egg down from mountain, right besides skeleton burial chamber, than trough portal to base and than back to take egg but it was gone. Probably skeletons stolen it. Bastards!
@@7heavenfist572 Tbh, eggs aren't that important, I find 1-3 on every mountain I visit, everytime I go there, I don't even know what to do with so many eggs, besides deco
@@rtb42 That egg was meant for decoration. I was surprised that it disappeared so quickly. I had not left any workstation nearby.
@@7heavenfist572Ah, yes decoration is important, I have one in my room in my base too, also I tried the workbench thing and items can really disappear, that's 'interesting'
@@rtb42 yes, things outside your base disappear after a few hours, things close to workbenches always stay :)
Audibly gasped at teh fire smoking itself out. I thought it was a bug for the longest time.
The ding after every tip is so annoying
the misinformation is as well. deer, and all other enemies, cant smell you. and even if they could, being upwind of them would mean they are downwind of you. which means the wind is carrying your smell to them... Upwind is the air version of upstream. you would want to be downwind of the deer if they could smell you, but they cant so it doesnt matter.
He wasnt very clear with the difference between the resting and rested buff, (resting is being near a fire AND sheltered, theres no time limit on it either. Rested is the buff you get after being in the rested state for 20 seconds and lasts for a duration after leaving the fire and/or shelter) a new player might not understand what he was saying.
When he was talking about adding decoration to increase comfort rating he also should have mentioned that only one thing from each category provides a bonus: a stool, chair and bench all provide one point but are in the same category so even if you have all three you only get one point. the thrones are in the same category and provide three points, so are the better option once you can make them. same logic applies to rugs, banners and beds

@@Timppasaurusthe meat riding is crazy lil bro
started playing Valheim once i got my steamdeck (it runs pretty well at medium locked 40fps)
use a bow aggro a troll to fight skeletons, the troll will leave you alone to fight the bone bois
bonus if you find a stone encampment you can where the troll cant reach you
Harvesting Trees - @Krystopher Johnson is right, rolling trees into each other is a fast way to get wood, but there's a couple other tricks -
Cut a tree at the top of an incline too gain speed, the momentum increases the hit amount. Then and roll it back up the incline as far as possible and release. You can clear a pretty large area like that. Also - use a Fine Wood tree as the logger, it lasts longer, so do one 1st.
I had to stop playing Valheim for a bit it was wayyy to laggy on the one s but now I got the series s and I’m so happy that I can play Valheim again with no lag this time
1:15 💀the map
OML! 😂
Tip 54 clarification - mushrooms regenerate in dungeons or caves, the rest - no.
seeing that massive bit of ore just completely blew my mind? is copper like that too?
yes
Idk if anyone else said this already but you can parry ranged attacks and stun the enemy
If you are still releasing content for this you should add that there are items in the barrels in front of the structures you find in the world
1:58 I did that with my friend now there is no more trees in a Black Forest
Upwind? You mean down wind... so the wind blowing towards you from the direction of the deer. xD
Yellow mushrooms do respawn in burial chambers and iron caves.
To use a workbench, in addition to a roof it also needs to be sheltered from the wind, or you you will get a message that it's too exposed. Once you've successfully used it once it no longer matters which way the wind is blowing though.
Building and connecting the walls, floors and roofs is hard on consoles
I know this is a year old now but just for other new players who maybe see this comment and agree, there are multiple different snapping options and it’s super easy once you understand it, idk if they had the different snapping options when this comment was made
Also, 2:46 - shown example is poor - you'll pretty much NEVER break a copper rock in one go because there's always going to be a terrain spike in the center that you can't reach by going under it. It's much easer with silver though
8:54 this is appearantly only a myth. There is no smell mechanic.
you can 1 hit a copper node by digging it out of the ground? i will have to try that.
Yes. But many of the ones I have dug won't let me dig below them.
@@nelsonhemstreet3568 I have literally same problem. I haven't found any copper ore that would let me to dig under it to disconnect it from the ground.
@@krystiaff maybe mine copper from bottom tier of node?
I tried that too.
Don't worry, it doesn't work. My friends and I mined around and below a copper node until it was floating mid-air, and it never crumbled by itself.
I just killed Eikthyr and still learning here, what did you say on #17, you dug all the way around a big copper deposit and then said something about getting it all at once? Thanks for the help
If you dig all the way around the copper deposit and it isn't touching anything you should be able to break the entire deposit in one hit with your pickaxe.
Elsewhere I've heard that the tip about deer smelling you if you're upwind from them is false. I've snuck up on them repeatedly without ever worrying about wind direction.
Really great tips for newbies like me! 👍
Can one just leave a bunch of death points at a boss and pick one up every minute for the buff?
If you had less dings, you'd have more subs. I mean, subliminal sound mind controlling is cool, but you have to know how to use it.
Train hand to hand early for later use with the fleshrippers.
Do Not Use A Bow On Beehives (you’re only guaranteed to get the queen bee if you use a workbench to destroy the wood supporting it and you’ll need honey for the mead it can take up to 10 full honey for just one mead)
1 thing I wish I know before watching this video
1- Change playback speed to 0.75
XD Thanks for the video
I didn't know you could repair items! I played for probably 10 hrs before i realized it, and just made new tools and weapons when the durability ran out... turns out im an idiot lmao
Did not know about the deer thing with the wind, I thought the AI was just really dopey.
It has nothing to do with wind, but the way it's facing
@Ishantjudge the way what is facing?
@@AngelArm1110 The way the body/the deer is facing 🙂
#28 is unecessary, because all you ever need is eikthyr in the start, and bonemass for the rest of the game
What I learned about the Workbenches you place around to widen your base building area and prevent enemy spawning:
Don't leave them unsheltered... they will wear and tear. It's enough to build walls 2 long and 1 wide, covered by (my preference, to target it if I need fast repairs!) the 45 degree ridge. This shelters the Workbench from the weather AND allows repairs.
i prefer diggin a hole in the ground to put them in, use the hoe to raise the land, you can leave a lil bit of workbench sticking out and it won't destory, cultivate to make the grass appear on top of it and you got a uninhibited land radius to build upon with mob spawn preventing, i typically do this under the foundation of my home so i dont see 5-6 diff workbenches, and just leave 1 main one with the addons in the base
@@sneekyshot1 I've noticed in recent patches with Valheim... things move up and down as you mine down or raise the ground. So I believe doing this wouldn't work as efficently anymore.
@@raevmanigotnoskills5837 works pretty well currently on the test realm, never had a problem with them being destroyed after being placed unless a troll smashes the ground, or lox smash.
Biggest pushback I have is sitting has nothing to do with resting buff. You can stand, sit, even run and still get rested buff. Dunno bout console but that's how PC is
Absolutely love this game.
hot damn, I had no idea you could pounce from stealth. How do you do that?
I've been trying to make stealth build work for ages 😅
1:14 that's some pretty suss exploration so far....
I wish I knew I needed the cauldron before the fermenter.
Thing #1: You can repair your tools. You never have to make new tools.
8:53 is not true the deer do not have a sense of smell
Question, do skeletons keep respawning in burial caves? I feel like i keep killing them and they are coming back. Just a never ending wave of skeletons.
only if there's a spawner;
it's a purple sparkly campfire,
which is good if you want to farm bones for upgraded leather/cape
if you find there's too many, you can destroy the spawner from ranged with a bow
@@RW77777777 thank you. Yes I found that out once I went deeper. I have another question for you. I'm on iron age some I'm messing about in the swamps. Whenever I start doing lots of damage to an abomination he runs away. Is that normal? I'm playing on Xbox which isn't very powerful so things load a little slow sometimes. Because of that when he runs away and I chase him he gets away. I'll do loops around the area and only find Abominations with full health. So besides traping on in a pit I'm not sure how to kill them.
Good video but man that bell you use is almost as bad as having background music.
I got to tip 15 before I had to stop the video. It's such a rough sound for some people, especially with the frequency of use for each tip, had 3-4 in a 10 second time and I felt like someone was ringing a bell directly in my ear.
7:37, the colour of what exactly?
little late i know but they meant the color of the damage text. white numbers is neutral, grey means your attacks arent effective and yellow means they are extra effective
Thanks!!
Where is the tip about the trader?
This man talks so fast I have to enable CC in order to understand what exactly he's saying. He should try being a rapper, no doubt he'll be a big hit.
Pretty sure yellow mushrooms respawn now
This is the best game i played in a long time
I cleared all the terrain and it’s not breaking in a single hit. Is there a specific distance the terrain has to be away?
they changed it, but it will still take huge chunks off if its cleared like that.
2:50 nooooo this does NOT work!!! i just spent n hour last night trying it. The coppernwill indead just float there..
Downloaded on Xbox right before this video dropped lol
Update: currently struggling to kill deer because I suck at using the bow, even with the tips given in this video. Also have not discovered how to make a pickaxe or flint knife yet. Otherwise the game is fun. Had to use some junky methods to make my starter base before I could acquire the hoe. But it is functional to say the least
I haven’t played it yet myself but I believe you need to kill the first boss to get his antlers to get the pick axe. Could be wrong 😅
Flint spawns near water in the Meadows. It's oval shaped white rocks.
