Should've loaded for bear, might've taken 200 damage if I'd gone over a 6 height wall Edit: I'm afraid to get my jump skill much higher, maybe I'll die every time I leap off a slight slope

High run and jump skill is a major quality of life improvement, and losing days worth of gains for random stuff happening is just obnoxious. it shouldn't matter too much as long as your spawn is nearby, right?

Whether it matters much or not to my modded game, its still stupid. I jumped over a random short wall in my meadows base and fell over dead.

Uranium Phoenix posted:gently caress that's funny as hell The best part was the contrast between the raw Viking athleticism in the parkour double jump, where I leapt at an L shaped wall, hit one facing of it, then leaped again and flew over the wall in the other direction. Then the wet fart splat of getting one shotted by landing

Fall damage is whack though and it really should scale better with a higher jump skill. If I can jump 3m up, a fall from 3.2m shouldn't break my legs. Not sure how exactly it works but it feels something like it's jump height + x where x is static. So as your jump grows and you jump higher and further, that small buffer gets easier to hit until you can no longer jump downhill anymore and double jump always = pain.

Ambaire posted:It'd still be playable, but a different mental paradigm would be required. Instead of one main base and some outposts, you'd need a whole bunch of smaller bases scattered around. None of this 'carry portal mats and just hop home at nightfall to sleep'; instead, exploring a biome would require building an outpost in that biome and allocating time to travel back for night. I think it’s a cool idea for a solo challenge run. If you’re only worried about focusing on gear for 1 person and not a whole big rear end group, you could realistically complete this in 2-3 base hops. With a larger group the amount of spread required to keep everyone geared up and fed is pretty wild, and not having portals would make this so incredibly tedious. I think the game could totally get to a spot where it doesn’t need portals, but that currently would require that they fill in a lot of gaps to make the overall world more desirable.

Your ability to read is as bad as your ability not to die in a stupid way and then bitch about it. Also, even if I did do it, what does that have to do with anything? The game has fall damage. You chose not to eat. I don't know what point you think you're making. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 06:14 on Mar 29, 2021 |

so I've been loving around with knives since the beginning, and I was going to give up on them because this bronze sword is just so much better. but then I realized there's a secondary attack. then I backstabbed a troll for like 450 damage and killed him in a couple more hits. pretty good weapon imo

By 4 height stone wall do you mean four walls high? That's a pretty big wall.

Generally, falling that distance is not fatal, so it seems you encountered a bug; one which I'm sure the devs would be interested in fixing if it was reported. I don't think it is a bug. If you google Valheim falling damage (I did to see if there was some formula or guidelines or something), there's a bunch of Reddit threads of people falling from the same height (off of houses two 2x2 tiles high) and dying. If you just slide off a 4 height wall, you'll probably take 10-15 damage or so. I jumped it, so I cleared it by probably another unit of height, which I guess bumped the damage to the next level. I've got 65 jump skill and take 10-15 fall damage every time I jump off a small rock or land on a slight decline. Sprinting through the black forest is just constant fall damage spam. As the guy above noted, if you can jump 3 meters, landing from 3.2 meters shouldn't break your legs. But it does. litany of gulps fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Mar 29, 2021 |

After a frightening early-game boat drive-by of some draugr a few weeks ago, I was anticipating last nights first intentional foray into the swamp to be far more stressful. Before my friend logged on, I cleared out a draugr village in a patch of meadow separated by a river from the swamp, set up a cozy little outpost, and built a portal back to home base after dropping a shuttle raft in the river. The draugr village and my earlier farming and gathering efforts had us loaded with sausages, carrot soup, flinthead arrows, and some upgraded troll armor. Really the biggest danger was those goddamn dropbear rear end wraiths and the loving LEECHES. The draugr and blobs were far easier to deal with than we'd feared, and after building a little treehouse and a portal closer to the swamp center, we cleared out two crypts that yielded almost 70 iron, enough to quickly make us question our motivation to ever mine copper again. Knocked together a karve, shipped the bounty back home, and smelted it all while making dock plans fit for our intended long ship. I'm sure our first attempt at bonemass will sour us on the place, but other than being sad and wet all the time, the swamp is rad as hell, A++ biome.

Johnny Truant posted:When I die my second thought is usually "oh no my skill loss!" but I can never tell that anything was lost at all so Because it's a 5% reduction and if your skill is in the 30's that's 1-2 points which is pretty much unnoticeable. But for people that grind to something close to 100 that's about 5 points so they're gonna feel the drop.

The villages with body piles will 100% keep spawning draugrs, I spent 30 minutes farming them a ways back just because it was fun. The elites and archers like to get stuck in the houses though. Which is fine just be careful to not run in and damage the body pile.

I run a server with 4-5 friends. We've mostly spread out over the world, as everyone wants their own continent for their megabases, but one of our guys has gotten the sailing-itch and has been uncovering the map north south east and west. I was talking to him about how I wasn't happy with my current Plains base (currently built on top of a spire) due to farming - my fields were tiny, not very protected, and had constant patrols of Fulings at all hours of the days. He said "I may have found you a perfect location" and dropped a portal... This formerly tiny island is situated in the Plains, and is far enough away from the main continent that absolutely nothing will spawn anywhere close. I've had multiple events just straight up end early because there is no pathing. The only event that has lasted the full 5 minutes was a Skeleton Surprise, because it took them 5 minutes of walking on the bottom of the ocean to make it to my base - they turned around seconds after coming within visual range. If you can find it, I highly recommend a farming island. I am so flush with Flax and Barley now, and have my own little docks I can fish off to make those tasty Fish Wraps.  You can see the main continent in the background. Love this location. ------ Also: 0.148.7 Cute mini-tweak patch :slight_smile: * Localization updates * Added separate walk-sneak snow footstep sfx * Music update ( fixed some sound glitches ) * Credits updated ( Changed the look of the credits screen & added missing names ) * Hammer,Hoe & Cultivator timing & input tweaks ( Slightly lower use delay & queued button presses for a smoother experience...just for you )

I've been having much more fun with this since I started just console command spawning common building materials so I can focus on making cool bases. I mostly try to get rare metals etc the proper way so theres still an incentive to explore but nothing kills my enthusiasm like having to go pick up rocks or cut down trees every ten minutes

There's a real sense of satisfaction knowing that I collected and crafted every little thing in my world. Having said that, I can appreciate the fact that the developers made it easy for people to play however they want to. I can recall a few Valheim sessions where all I did was collect rocks and chop trees while listening to podcasts. It's oddly relaxing. I made a little tree farm with graduated elevation and a rock wall to collect it all in one place.

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:same, i have no idea how big a deal skill is for e.g. damage, mining, chopping Any single loss from death isn’t going to make a huge dent in your effectiveness, but the death loss is significant enough that it can take days of play time at the higher levels to recover, so your skills end up just kind of stalling out even if you rarely die. You can see the effect on your damage if you mouse over a weapon - the damage range in parentheses is how much you deal. You’ll see on a low skill weapon that the numbers are way below the base damage, while with higher skill the upper end of your range approaches or meets the base damage. I think you need 70 to deal max damage, then additional points raise the minimum you deal. Jumping and sprinting skill also have a really noticeable effect. The stamina drain drops way off as they increase, while your jump height and run speed go up. With really low jump skill, you can kind of anemically hop, but higher skill does open up a lot of mobility and allows for jumping that does honestly look like parkour. Shrugging your shoulders and saying who cares about skills is fine if that’s your thing, but ultimately the effect is that your character is going to move like they’re coated in a thick layer of delicious honey compared to other characters. Which they may well be!

Seconding this, my original plan for my island base was to be a full second hub, but just having a bunch of farmland where I don't get bothered by deathsquitos or fuling gangs at night has been wonderful. I also get a ton of wind out here, not sure if that's just how plains are or if it's because I'm in the middle of the ocean.

One moment your inventory is literally so stacked with rocks and wood you cant move, you're throwing down log piles or just chucking stuff ahead of you to get it near construction, maybe dragging a cart full of materials behind you too. Then a minute or two into building whatever structure, you're already completely out. Wish I had learned about collapsing massive rocks earlier, so much time burnt just chipping away at the ground in our quarries creating marred patches of land. Makes me wish there were Stone Giants or a Stone God walking around, go cut their head off or whatever and collect bajillions of stone pouring forth.
