Reason I say take it easy is not to stop you from exploring, by all means get out there and see what you’re custom world offers you, what I AM saying is that you won’t be able to fight these guys. This game is about taking your time, building up your characters stats, gear, and housing, until you’re confident enough to at least venture slightly into those tougher areas. This also goes for players that have hit that stage of having Troll Armor of Bronze Armor, you might THINK you’re good, but then you bump into a Deathsquito and are killed literally within a second.
For example, if you’re just starting off, don’t try to rush the Black Forest right away, as you’ll end up getting punted around like a soccer ball. As a beginner, stick to fighting enemies you know you can take, or you’ll just keep getting slapped around and losing all your gear.
Well, as you explore and get new crafting materials, you’ll eventually be making gear tough enough to bring you into the next zones, not always comfortably, but with just a slight bit more protection. Kinda nice for once, to be honest, means you can take things slow and learn without feeling rushed. In Valheim, this is a game that offers heaps of content at EVERY stage of the game, not only in the more difficult regions. If you’re like me, whenever you dive into a new open world game you literally just run as far as you can to explore, and then most certainly die to some enemy who pretty much breathes in your general direction, killing you instantly. Just get flint and feathers, move up to the big league flinthead arrows so as to not waste resources. BUT, when it’s a sunny day, and you’ve caught a pack of greydwarfs off guard, fire arrows will absolutely tear them to shreds.Īlso, don’t make the same mistake I did and craft literally 500 wooden arrows.
Also, rain will dampen those arrows, if anything is wet, your fire arrows are pretty much useless. Like, don’t shoot an enemy who JUST got out of the water (or is IN the water) with fire arrows… cause that ain’t gonna do squat. If you’re combining bows with, say, sword and shield, you’ll want to conserve ammo for when you actually need it, and make sure to use your fire arrows only on the targets it’ll damage over time more effectively. Not to say you can’t close range an enemy with a bow, I’ve done it several times, it’s just not quite as easy. With a bow, the further you are from an enemy, the better. Make sure to aim above your enemy if they’re at a far distance, and sneak until the last possible second. Remember, like pretty much every other game, the bows in Valheim have some pretty serious drop off, moreso with that starter bow you craft from just regular old beech wood. Using long range bows or throwing spears is incredibly useful on those enemies that are just too tough to fight up close, especially trolls or Jelly monsters. Arrows aren’t particularly expensive to craft if you know what you’re doing, so just focus on getting Flinthead and Fire arrows ASAP, and you’re as good as gold. This is where you just kick back, pull out your bow, and snipe enemies as much as you can. Probably my favorite form of fighting, the way of the rat. Once again, you probably won’t parry every time, sometimes you’ll get caught off guard OR parry far too early (either resulting in a solid smack to your health OR just a regular boring block), but the more you practice on your enemies, the more natural performing a parry will become. Not only do you have a window of opportunity to get some good hits in, you also deal critical damage here, meaning that you are hitting damage numbers double, triple, quadruple and beyond your regular damage. This will offset the enemy, causing them to stumble back for a brief few seconds, enough time for you to hit them head on without the fear of being struck back. When the enemies are RIGHT about to strike (and yes, you need to learn each and every enemies cues to time them right), you are able to do a quick block, also known as a “parry”. What a lot of people don’t realize when they’re out there in the depths of the forest so far away from home, is that they have the ability to pretty much kill every enemy in 2 hits of less if they time things right. Like all great medieval (or just sword based) video games, Valheim includes your standing hack and slash action, combined with a few long ranged weaponry.
