I'll give the queen a second run as the mage at some point. I doubt it will look much different. The Demolisher usually ends up being most of the damage! lol

Great video! That Seeker Soldier was like a mini boss fight! your weapons were only taking a fraction at a time, is there a better weapon for them or is that simply the fight you have to face each time?
@RudimentaryRob28 күн бұрын
Great question! :) Seeker Soldiers are resistant to all types of physical damage (blunt/slash/pierce) and immune to spirit damage. Frostner is one of the better weapons to use against them due to the frost damage. Regular Soldiers aren't too bad. The 1-star variety just have a gallon of hit points to work through. Need patience and to make sure you minimise how much damage you are taking in return. They have a weak point that I've exploited in a few fights, including some that are coming up. It is on their abdomen though, so not reachable from the front with a 1-handed melee weapon. You can snipe it with a ranged weapon or get it with an area attack (eg door knocker) if you can get into a suitable position and the soldier isn't able to delete you. :) Look for yellow damage numbers, that is when you are hitting somewhere that is weak to that damage type. Grey means the target is resistant to that damage type. White is just regular damage. If you have awesome timing you can try parrying and getting bonus damage that way, but that isn't an option with the tower shield. Tower shield is my favourite shield type due to the massive amount of damage you can block, that only gets better as your block skill improves. I was blocking 100+ damage hits. That never gets old. :) Thank you! :)

Thank you!! Stamina running out while swimming... I think that might be a thing that I just do with survival games. Thankfully in Valheim, your stamina running out isn't immediately fatal. That is the point at which you start taking damage - a bit like running out of air in Sunkenlands. Best avoided, but not a massive problem until you run out of health as well. :)

Great video, great to see another boss fight. I think the boss is nowhere near as scary as the swamp biome is as a whole, either that or you made it look very easy! How come you didn't just use the door knocker v.2 on him? Is it not as good as the mace?
@RudimentaryRobАй бұрын
Good question! The Iron Mace and the Iron Sledge both do exactly the same blunt damage. The Iron Sledge takes more stamina to swing and does not have any combo attacks that increase the damage. The Iron Sledge is also a two handed weapon, so no shield can be equipped at the same time. The Iron Mace has a 3 swing combo that does increased damage, particularly on the 3rd swing. The Iron Mace is only 1 handed and allows for the use of a shield. Using the shield with the Iron Mace allowed me to block most of the melee damage from Bonemass. Checking the video, it looks to be around 75 blocked damage per swing. Blocking with the door knockerv2 is much less than that, and bosses can't be staggered. Blocking with shields (tower shields) is pretty awesome when you can get your block skill going! Bonemass is capable of some scary damage if you aren't prepared! The way I see the fight: If you are going to use the Poison Resistance mead to reduce the poison damage taken by 75%, why not use a shield to block most of the melee damage taken as well. It makes the fight much less stressful and you don't need to chug healing meads endlessly. I hope that helps!! Thank you for watching! :)

I think my question is as much facetious as actual. I'm not sure if it is something in the DNA of game developers, so many different games put a proportionately higher need for iron than any other resource! I am actually not sure myself exactly how much I will actually use. It is worth knowing that even in Ashlands there are recipes that need iron. You are correct though, if I need more in the future I certainly know how to get it! Thank you!

Interesting, RR - I've never seen anyone fish before in Valheim. Do you get the option to cook chips with that? Tight lines! '...make a pier or wharf or whatever...' - suspect you mean a jetty!? Re Crypt mining: Myself, I'm happy to watch you go through the mine at 'triple- (or whatever it is) speed. But I won't worry if you simply start the mining and then cut to show the results. So, your choice! Sailing: 👍👍👍 Lovely manouvering!!! I wondered what would happen if you tried fishing for that troll? Maybe use greyling for bait? ( - and joking aside: CAN you use a fishing rod when on a boat?) Meself, I feel that now I've spent over 1,800 hours in Valheim, I've 'earned the right' to set my game to 'Portal Everything' including ores. But - very happy to continue watching you, however you play. Great vid - Battle on!

Fish and chips would be awesome! Ahh, the English language! Jetty would be correct! Teleporting everything is nice, I'll save that for next time I think. I did make a concession as some stage during this series. I dropped the death penalty a notch or two. The skill point loss for dying generally messes with the end game unless you spend the time Re-grinding the skill points back up. That is the extra time I didn't want to be wasting.
