70 hours in and I think this game fixed something

First game I've properly stuck with in years.

I'd usually drop things after a week, this one just kept going.

Got through the swamp, made it back with the iron, drowned twice carrying ore because apparently I never learn.

Playing solo is fine but a bit quiet. Half the fun is having someone to show the base to.

Thanks for the "play it slowly" advice last time, that was the one that stuck.

Every time I die, I make a new character

No map, no portals, fire hazard, items remain at death. I call it Legacy mode. Its like a viking enters Valheim but there's actual useful infrastructure in place. Buildings with clothes, tools, and food. Roads with signs. Dead vikings with full gear can be found.

I'm looking for the Elder have been dying on a new island in the swamp. I had to build a new boat and I found my body. I died like immediately, tried a raft of shame and died at sea.

Now I'm on the starting island again and have to migrate to get new copper before setting sail to get back to the island #2. There's wooden tower built pointing which way to sail.

I've actually made it island #2 twice but like I said, I've exhausted everything I left behind

Dual Screen Mod!

A work in progress Valheim mod! I wanted a way to enjoy one of my favorite games across both screens of the AYN Thor, so I decided to make it happen. It’s still early in development, but it’s coming together nicely!

Ashlands Spire

Behold the Fire-Spire (that was the best i came up with)

Fully functional base in Ashlands.

Made with a few mods: InfinityHammer, Gizmo, MVBF, WEC (but still vanilla compatible)

Fortune did NOT favour the brave ...

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.

Today's Fun Useless Valheim Fact:

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.

What are your preps for 1.0?

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?

Nobody: ... Me: I leveled out 65,662 sq. meters of a hill around the spawn stones so I can recreate Lego castles in Valheim.

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

Construction Tips/Difficulty building with stone

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?

Finally finished the main base and ready for 1.0

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

I've always loved the plains, but they're even more beautiful when shadowed by a black forest-encased mountain like this.

Karve

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.

Just tamed my first ever wolf!

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.

When Deep North lands are you taking your Drakkar there or the trusty longboat?

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).

Winterwacht - Cold and Cozy

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?
