What do you consider to be the BEST Mead in Valheim? Let me know below!

I actually had no idea that you could have one of each category of mead active at a time. I assumed from every description I’ve seen that you could literally just have one mead effect active. This makes so much more sense why people are always saying to make more than one fermenter. Now I need to change my home build to make a bit more room

I came here for this hot take because I've always avoided tasty mead for its trade-off with health regen. I'll give it another try! A couple notes that I wanted to add: (1) while taking freezing damage in the Mountains, you can't sneak either, so really don't skip on the frost mead, and (2) the medium stamina is better to carry on a sailing trip than lingering stamina. The lingering variety adds a percentage boost on your regen, but your regen is literally 0 when you are swimming, so 25% on 0 is 0. Whereas medium stamina adds a flat amount of stamina back to your bar, allowing you to swim long distances in the event of a boat accident with a serpent.

Thank you, I just got into making meads on my n my friends first playthrough (about to face bone mass) and this vid had information that will save me so much going forward 👍

I'm kind of shocked more people didn't realize tasty meads are so strong. Their stamina regen is great, and there's no cooldown to drink the next one. They're great to drink when you're in a pinch

Exactly. Tasty mead was underrated. It's cheap and easy to acquire, suitable for doing chores.

Nice video! Tasty Meads are the go to for everyone! Especially for Bow Builds like I used to play all the time :)

Thanks for the thorough video! Great and helpful overview.

Great video not going to lie early game I rarely use any meads besides boss fights but overtime I start to use them more especially in the Ashlands lol

bro i dont know how you only have 6k subs you deserve way more

Got to admit, tasty mead is a solid choice. I personally don't think there is a one best mead. But each situation has a good choice for that situation. Sometimes, you want that solid shot of health or stamina, so the lingering isn't always a good choice. But if you are sure you are ready, the boost from lingering meads can be a serious bonus.

I don’t view it in terms of “best vs worst”, I view it as more of a “X situation requires Y stuff”. Just like foods, armor, weapons and tools, I bring whatever meads I need to meet the task I’m doing. For example, serpent hunting. I’m not gonna bring health rich foods, a eitr regen mead and wear heavy armor when serpent hunting, which requires max stamina, low stamina use weapons and armor that provides better movement speed. Likewise, I’m not gonna bring the feather cape, root armor, max stamina foods and a frost mead to fight Yagluth. Each task has its own set of equipment that is designed for or is better suited for the job. Now, with all that said, I absolutely do have a “most used” set, which is magic everything w/ eitr regen mead. Running the plains no longer requires the root chest as the protection bubble completely negates deathsquito attacks. The bubble also negates poison damage from blobs, leeches and greydwarf shamans. The bubble, is king. Now, if I’m off on a mining expedition to the swamp, black forest or mountains, I prefer having stamina and health stuff with whatever resist or regen mead over magic. Just my preference. I know I could probably swap out one eitr food for a stamina food and manage just fine, but I still like to go warrior once in a while, plus all other biomes are a friggin cake walk compared to Ashlands lol. Even Mistlands don’t pose the threat it once did. The worst part about that biome now is just visibility. Long winded, but that’s my take on meads. And, other stuff…

Great video!

3:01 How do you get the other resistances (I presume from gear) to show up in your Valheim Compendium (or buff window)? I've always thought something like this would be great to have in the game but never could find anywhere that showed it. Wonderful video though! I've been combing through a lot of your vids and your work is *chef's kiss*!

Honesly that tasty mead -50% health regen don't realy hurt that much so I think you can spam it how much you want.

Greay video and i do have a question, does the root mask resistence stack with poison resistence mead or is it just useless.

Glad to see new blood in this game.

I dislike how much the meads and food take up your inventory :/ having to have all these to progress safelt i have no room for ant loot

this is great

0:25 I feel crazy for making 6-9 then lol.

I need more inventory space!!

Problem with Tasty Mead is that it takes so many berries and they take 5 hours to respawn 😭

Tasty mead is a good option, but I'll pass. I've been playing by myself for around 600hrs and i just rather have any other mead or the rested buff for that stamina regen. Though, I'll try using it now that my gf is playing with me
