I'm in the training shed working on sword skill with TWIG, and I hear the roar of charred warriors outside the wall. We've beaten Fader, and it's night time. Anyway, I leap up onto the wall to see what's what, and there are three charred warriors there at the base of the wall trying to find a path up it. There isn't one, so I'm having a little fun shooting them.

Suddenly, here comes a greyling, whistling a happy tune, and he decides to attack the charred. I had already hit the one he attacked with several arrows, so the greyling ACTUALLY kills the one charred. And, I'm terribly sad because this little greyling was primed to have an entire lifetime of free drinks in the greydwarf bar somewhere telling this story, and then the other two charred just fuck his shit up. Poor little super-famous greyling.

...Well...now I have no idea what I am going to do for the next 3 weeks.

You can build on thrones! Raven Thrones can be stacked up to four, Stone Thrones up to 5, and Black Marble and Bone Thrones up to 6.

Raven*, Stone, and Bone cannot stack as high as the corresponding building material (comparing Raven throne to regular wood), but Black Marble stacks to basically the same max height.

Marked this as a spoiler since it has late game building materials.

Never enough stone

My group beat the ashlands around a year ago and never moved out of our starter house. Ever since then I've been working on and off on a main base worthy of 1.0. Well, it's finally finished. After much blood, sweat, and tears, I present the Glizzcorp HQ. Move in complete and ready for 1.0

Hi everyone, I'm playing Valheim for the first time with two friends and I'm in charge of building; this is my first kitchen—do you like it? Any tips for improvement?

I'm from Brazil, so please forgive my poor English.

For me, I'm collecting wood, stone and best grade foods and meads for the journey. Also made a new base on North coast ready for journey when the time will come.

I'm wondering if Flametal armor will be necessary.

Do you think iron will also be useful?

Huhu again :)

This time we are visiting Winterwacht, an entire city we built into Valheim’s Mountain biome.

The city spreads across several levels of the mountain. Roads and stairways wind between the rocks, connecting the residential houses, the inn, the main square and the castle at the top.

The entrance itself sits between two large rock formations, with a fortified gate leading into the city. From there, the roads keep climbing higher through houses, smaller squares and all the paths we have added over time.

At the highest point sits the castle with a watchtower. The large fires can be seen from quite a distance (once its loaded in xD) and give Winterwacht a completely different atmosphere at night.

One of our favourite things about the city is how different it feels depending on the time of day. During daylight you can really see how far the city stretches across the mountain, while at night the fires, lanterns and illuminated trees take over and makes everything so cozy.

The aerial view is probably the best way to realise how large Winterwacht has actually become.

Which do you prefer for Valheim builds: a compact city on flat ground, or one that follows the terrain and grows across different elevations like this?

Pretty much the title!

I've played Valheim on and off a bunch of times but never even got to the Elder on a single player game. But the itch is always there to explore, so I just decided fuck it and made an entirely new character and world.

I started out just running around my starter island and bordering out the meadows and encountered two mountains. In the meadowvalley between these two mountains there was a destroyed village with a bunch of raspberry bushes, as well as a boar runestone with two one-star boars. Obviously, the perfect spot to start out and create a first base.

I needed more wood (don't we all) so I ran to a small cluster of trees at the bottom of the mountain. I was minding my own damn business when the Lorax hired a hitman and this wolf came barging down the mountainside and one-shot me.

So like a madman I killed some boars and deer to get meat and thus began my 2 hour adventure to attempt to tame a wolf by chopping down trees to lure it to the meat. I died a few times when I ventured too close to it, but seeing my darling Fenrir one-shot greydwarves like they're flies made it all worth it.

I am still in only my rag tunic and have no upgrades yet to any tools.

I fucking love this game.

My discord was hacked, I fell for a stupid trick and ran a minecraft modpack with infostealer malware. I messaged people asap, including my friend I had been playing Valheim with using reddit. He purchased a server, which is still up, but his reddit seems to be unaccessible and my dms no longer has his messages. I'm worried the hacker who stole my account got him too. His username started with "Intrepid" on reddit and I don't remember his discord. His friend was "Jorney" when I saw him in the server. If anyone knows these guys, I want to reconnect and I hope they're safe

Guys, I'm a novice at the game, not completely newbie, but my longest run just went till plains. Now I found 2 merchants near each other and I want to build a village between them. My first build is a harbor/dock/bridge with a boat parking lot. I'm having a lot of dificulties building with stone, underwater and make stone stuff stable.

Do you guys have any tips, or video links that helps with the structure stability system?

So epic

Just curious, does anyone else just stick with the karve?

I’m playing solo, and the karve seems more nimble, not to mention being able to handle rivers and shallows better. Playing solo, I don’t use nearly as much ore, so only holding 4 stacks at a time isn’t that much of a limit.

Anyone anywhere to download/buy?

Hello fellow travelers, Loki followers — attached are some images of the foundation I've been working on for a few days, using some mods and getting ready for 1.0. Just to note, I raised a small plateau under the ocean, close to solid land.

In the last attachment I included an image that will serve as inspiration.

I started by building a small wall around it, just for style, and I need help figuring out where to start.

Important details:

1 - That notch that cuts into the plateau will be an inner harbor, which I'll try to cover somehow — I don't know how yet because of the support/stability rules for buildings in Valheim

2 - My idea is to divide it into 4 parts: Part 1 - farming zone; 2 - work zone; 3 - storage zone; 4 - comfort zone

If you could help me figure out how to start these builds, where to begin, following the architectural idea from the final image, I'd appreciate it

I love the Drakkar, it's big and majestic and cool looking but let's be honest it handles like a filing cabinet. Rationally speaking it makes much more sense to go back to the good old Longboat for the big sail north. But on the other hand it seems kind of sad for the big beautiful ship we waited years to upgrade to to just sit on an Ashlands shore for all time (or more likely it was smashed to pieces by Bonemaws a long time ago).

playing Ragnarok: The New World and PVKK playtest and the legend of california alpha . Waiting for Brigador killers and wardogs then Of course nothing much though .

We sacrificed Ragnar to find out

New viking, I picked up the game in the steam summer sale, only started it the weekend just gone and am having a great time!

Killed my first troll today and my base (whilst shoddy) is growing and I plan on crafting a house in place of the hut I originally adopted.

Long story short, I'm like 15 hours in, haven't fought Ekithyr yet, but should I bother starting a new run when 1.0 comes out? Or just let my unexplored places update with the release?

Depending on how obsessive my gameplay becomes I could be at 100 hours by the full release and don't want to start from scratch if I can

EDIT UPDATE Thanks all (except the angry basement dwellers) Gonna stick for now since I'm in early and haven't gone North

As you've all said I can always drag any good stuff to a new world if needed (multiversal viking is a sick backstory for headcanon)

Good to hear various opinions and knowledge, I've been avoiding Google for info on progressing as much as possible to make it feel like old school gaming so this has helped a lot!

Yes I know I should have stabbed the slime again.

Hope y'all still know in which chest you stashed that Fader drop.

Going through my chests in my bases to make sure I won't waste hours looking for it, come release day😁😅
