Ohh that's a great idea, I'll have to give it a go!

Spear works as well for early game but tbh wood arrows are very cheap and much easier to use

@@alessioHD I found a huge problem with Valheim. First of all , once you understand the game, then the game loop is really off putting. The gameplay loop is really simple: farm resources, build base, farm more resources, than once strong with current gear from the bio, start looking for boss ( this alone can take huge time if you are not lucky, sail to different islands with boat BUILD A BASE AGAIN once you tuch land. AND PORTALS dont help much at all, because you cant transport ORE, so you have to build on every ORE farming location a smelter, forge etc.... then once the location is empty from ore, make the items you can ( with upgrades ) then destroy the stations and move on..... ( *how f tedious and annoying is that mechanic my god* ) basically on every new farming location , in MID and LATE game, you need almost to build a full base with defences etc... and you need to do it BEFORE you even know if this new land is a good farming location or not, because you can't see the whole island . ( *how f tedious and annoying is that mechanic my god* ) _________________________________________________________________________ I just stopped and started to use FLY command and SPAWN items. Its the same thing only faster. Yes i can go out and farm for 200 wood or 200 Iron or 200 Silver or just i spawn it in, and save huge time in real life. Dahhh Same with trying to find a boss location. Why move around with a boat and on foot if i can use FLY and do it much faster. __________________________________________________________________________ How to fix. Later in game once you kill let's say 2 bosses you should be able to build a device that lets you send out crows or something that can look for boss area or specific runes for you for boss location. ( saving you the time that you don't have to go look yourself and sail around aimlessly like a moron ) That way you still have to go to the rune that the crow finds, but you don't go around randomly like it is now. About ORE and new BASES that you need in every farming location. How about You Can transport Ore with Portals , but in order to do that the new ORE you get has to be in your base in a chest for 3 or 5 days and then you can transport it. Building a new base in every location or even a protal, the problem is that once you move in more dangerous , areas as soon you start to chop wood or use a pickaxe, the monsters from that bio start to come at you, making it hard for you to farm. Its all fine and good in early game, but late game this can instantly kill you with wolfs,, stone golems etc.... how about when you work at day time then monsters dont come attacking you as soon you make noice if you are not in their vision or agro radius. I noticed that as soon i start to build, chopping wood , using pickaxe then the monsters just come running from random locations.....so annoying . *They just SPAWN IN.* *How is that fair???* But i should not spawn in items??? Thats why i started to spawn in items... its faster .. and if the monsters keep spawning in, then why should i not spoawn in items??? The game should have an item or something that you can put on ground that gives you 3 or 5 days peace from mosnters at day time... this would be used in new locations where you build a base. OR once i kill monsters from lets say 100 meter or 50 meter radius , then they stop spawning in randomly at day time. At least 24 H needs to pass before new monsters show up in that 100 or 50 meter radius, and they dont show up all at once, they show up sloely. THIS WOULD BE ALSO A FIX. So the player can build a new base in relative peace. __________________________________________________ Those are the fixes. After second boss you can build device that send out crows ( or what ever ) to find the next boss location for you, or the runes at least...... and then a method for ORE transportation and base building in more dangerous areas. As the game is now, i just keep using commands to save time in real life. ohh one more thing..... FOOD EFFECT TIME is too short. considering the ingredients you have to get for some foods and they only last for 20 min or 25 min...... nah thats too short ..... i also spawn in food.... f that i have to do all the work for 3 ingredients for a food and then it only lasts 25 min.... f that .... i just spawn it.. Make combined food last 1 H or 2 H then i am willing to not use commands for it. Then it actually has value and matters.

@@tanelviil9149 It sounds like maybe you'd prefer a different game, which is fair. There's also a huge modding community out there and mods that exist to cover most of what your concerns are.

@@tanelviil9149no way you’re a real person 💀

Yea, I’ve been trying to do the same. Im in the Black Forest now, have a full set of troll armor, and just started to find random fish on the shoreline, which got me thinking “ how can I get more of these, without a fishing rod?” And... here I am, browsing through tips videos. Lol

100% agreed! The tip about pickaxes doing more damage below you as opposed to in front of you confirms this line of thought! What a waste of time to not know these kinds of things 😂👌

Glad to hear and thank you for the comment!

Whilst it's more efficient for cutting the tree down you still get double experience for the woodcutting skill.

Which as long as the total damage is the same, should be more efficient as it will reduce overkill. If a tree needs 3 swings to be brought down, but if you can fell 2 trees in 5 swings, it saved time.

I have noticed with more playtime that especially with later axes, it almost seems like the difference in damage is less. I guess it's not a bad tip!

Thats why the secondary axe attack exists. It does double damage to all targets.

that offset is reduced as your woodcutting skill goes up too

Haha appreciate it!

That's fantastic advice, I'd be lying if I said I haven't wasted higher tier arrows in the Meadows!

Flaming arrows are useful for drakes in the mountain also and to a degree for tar so yes they are not to be forgotten :)

Torches and fires will also stop spawns if you don't want benches all over the place.

instead use the Hoe to climb hills. you does not slow down when you use the Hoe and create a much wider space to stand on

@@xxkingroggerxx dont you need a workbench to use the hoe ? That's the annoying part for me

@@xxkingroggerxx The hoe is so great for swamps and mountains.

You can use the hoe in the same way to climb hills just way more efficiently.

Oh yeah I remembered another. You don't need a workbench to use a hoe. It can save a ton of frustration to bring one with you to level ground especially when pulling a cart. Speaking of the cart, Valheim has mass. The more weight the cart has, the harder it is to pull.

Gosh it's all flooding back to me. Here's one about animals, mostly deer: Deer can "smell" you. Sneaking up to them is much easier if the wind isn't blowing from you to the deer. If you do scare one off, they will run back to their original spot. Just hide nearby and wait a little bit. Chasing/finding deer can be a huge asspain when you first start off. Spear or special attack with the dagger works really well until you can get the bow.

in dungeons you actually get 10m of rested because you’re inside and sheltered

@@sophieirisviel4100 Yes. Very helpful in the Swamps.

Hey that's awesome to hear dude. glad you got something out of it!

Sounds great! Good luck on your journey!

Thank you, glad to hear you were still able to find something new!

Haha awesome to hear, thank you!

That's great to know, can't believe I hadn't tried that. Thank you for the comment!

You're welcome, glad to hear it helped!

Hey, I appreciate the comment Umbrageous, cheers dude!

Hahaha good luck on your journey!

Happy to hear you still learned something!

Thank you! And yeah I've been in that situation myself! Either way, good luck on your adventures!

Glad I could help!

I thought I read somewhere that the terrain wall method was nerfed. I seem to be plagued with the “Ground is Shaking” regularly at my base. I can not tell you the number of wolves and bore I’ve lost to those Trolls. For some reason they have proven to be my nemesis in this game so far. They are able to reach through my wood pickets and kill everything. Guess I’ll continue my moat and terrain fortifications in hopes of stopping them. Thanks for the video! Nice to see newer ones.

Terrain wall, combined with a moat wide enough (some 6 or 7 game meters together with the wall) can stop all damage to any structure inside the wall. This will not, however, prevent flying enemies from getting inside your base (those are drakes and bats). Building on an island can stop any enemy spawning around you, if you block the entire island with campfires, working stations etc. Raid events still will happen, but no spawns, as there is no spawning above water. Shallow waters can still be tricky - sometimes they look like water, but actually taken as ground by the game engine.

That's really interesting, I'll have to give it a go! Thanks for sharing!

My pleasure, glad it helped out!

You're very welcome!

You're very welcome!

Glad to hear you're enjoying it, you truly are a hardcore survivalist!

Ah yes, that would be another great tip to include!

How do you know the direction? (Noob here, I played 1 time so far)

@@chimoji608 You can see the wind direction arrow on your minimap (lower left corner). Wind direction is very important when you start sailing, but I am really not sure wether and how much it affects your shooting. I admit that I never tried to test that, but I also never had any difficulties to shoot anything just aiming a bit above and to the right regardless of the wind direction. Probably (that's my guess) wind may affect the first, crude bow, which is very weak (I used it only for a short time when I was a noob too, so not much experience with that). For later bows, I think, wind direction is quite indifferent even if it really does slightly alter the arrow's course.

@@Vasilio1000 awesome, thnx 👍

Haha appreciate it!

Sounds great, Vintosan, should be a fun time! Best of luck on the exams!

@@alessioHD thank you so much ! :)

Thanks for the comment Gaza, that's good to know for anyone else who is playing on Controller!

@@alessioHD well I've no doubt it works on m+k aswell but I don't know the keybinds

Hey appreciate it dude, glad you found something new!

total cap , you swear your some know it all goat that didn’t learn anything but that one tip😂

@@RiZeLegiT all these “tips” in this video are obvious two hours into playing.. it doesnt take a genius

Thank you and good luck!

Appreciate it!

Appreciate it man!

Thank you!

Honestly not too sure, might have to give that another test.

Yes they did :)

@Alessio They did change that. The ground also shapes more rounded when you raise it. The leveling part has a lot more leeway though.

You're welcome!

That's a HUGE Tip that I forgot about, thanks for commenting!

@@alessioHD my pleasure

@@alessioHD So many editional tips that I see in the comments section. Honestly make part two if you can, I don't see a single reason why you shouldn't

Haha, you're welcome!

Honestly not sure, haven't run into that problem myself.. I'd assume it'd be some sort of glitch though, maybe verifying your game files could sort it out.

My pleasure!

That's awesome dude, enjoy the journey!

Oh that's interesting, thanks for letting me know!

I have to say, I was in the same boat (no pun intended)

This comment genuinely made me laugh, I hadn't intended that!

Thank you!

Same here…

Thanks!

Yup

That's a great shout, forgot to mention that one!

@@alessioHD It makes life easier.

Damn. They patched that? I was excited to try that one :(

agreed

Lol, I discovered plains 2hrs ago and thought, hey this place looks cool I’ll stop. DEAD
