It would be really cool if they add a piece of armor from each of the new bosses so that, once all are defeated, you have a new set of armor with a unique set bonus you can buy from Hildir or craft.
that would be an ACTUAL reward, i dont hate rewards for RP but if they are the only reward for such effort then its a pass for me. The concept of Hildir quests is really cool tho
For anyone wondering, if you already started exploring the map to a great extent, hildir will still appear in a meadows that is NOT explored yet. Also, you can find the mini bosses in unexplored caves, plains etc.. even if you have NOT found hildir yet. I explored my world about 70% and didnt have any hope of stumbling upon the new updates but they are present as long as you still have world to explore ! I found the wolf mini boss in a regular cave
Thanks for this, I was worried I would need to start a new world and as a new Valheim player who is currently buisy IRL thats a lot of time investment needed.
@@koetjesbarrr2010 Anytime goodluck! I found hildir very far from the starting point and had no hope of stumbling upon the camp site until her icon popped up when I was near (a shirt icon) youll find her!
Well every Biome has 2 armorsets except plains right now. Hope they add materials that you unlock to craft for example a rider armor for lox that increases riding and/or additional Lox armor. The materials should be available at hildir´s after collecting all 3 chests.
Any form of enchanted jewelry would be cool. We already have silver necklaces, ruby, amber, pearls etc and the magic feature came up with the mistlands It would be awesome if you could craft rings or necklaces using each mini boss trophy and each one would give a unique buff
Idea: -New jewelry equipment slot, you can only wear one at a time. Brenna: Infernal Signet -Your melee attacks have a chance to set targets on fire, you also gain the Fire buff wherever you are. Geirrhafa: Crescent Amulet -Dealing frost, fire or poison damage now has a chance to restore 10 health. Zil: Voodoo Charm -Dropping below 25 health will grant you a magical shield for 10 seconds, fully absorbing the next 2 attacks on you. Can only happen once a day. Hildir after doing all bosses and spending x amount of gold in her store: Hildir's Gift -Wearing this necklace you can feel a warming comfort. Your rested bonus is now 25% more effective. Also the effect of all food is increased by 5 minutes.
@Tr1KSh0TTT the game "as it is" is unfinished. I'm not saying your opinion is wrong it's just that your reasoning for your opinion is a really, really bad one. Find a better reason for it.
Great and balanced analysis.. I was definitely surprised by how much stuff was in this update despite not being a major new biome.. Lots of fun! I made the mistake of trying out the new hildir's quests while on hard difficulty and accidentally going for (apparently?) the hardest new miniboss while in magic kit.. let's just say I was ... not prepared lol
One thing i really hope for, is that the minibosses will also drop loot that can be used for weapon or even armour recipes. Whilst i do love that they added minibosses, the reward is merely cosmetic, which, in a solo world is pretty underwhelming. So having their trophies be used as key ingredients for unique items - weapons mainly, in the style of frostner for example, it being unique and having a damage modifier like frost - would be amazing. I mean, the first boss has a flaming sword, it would feel off it you were able to get that weapon early on, though Brenna's trophy could be used for a fire-based weapon in Ashlands. That type of thing. The plains minibosses, Thungr and Zir, would be responsible for a heavy 2 hander weapon, and a magic based weapon respectively. Or Armour. I just hope they do something like that, as i have been suggesting such ideas for a while now. I love terraria, and to be able to do a sideboss or miniboss for a weapon that would potentially boost your odds against a progression boss, or just be a cool weapon, is something that i definitely see Valheim being able incorporate. Do see it fitting in definitely, would give more incentive to explore the world more.
There is an Idea I read in a comment section on youtube: give the clothing the 'villager bonus' (less raids) and I will add to that idea: why not give the different clothings different set bonuses? Farmer Outfit - less stamina usage while farming Builder Outfit - less stamina usage while building Merchant Outfit - better shop prices Hunters Outfit - add 5 Sneak 5 Bow 5 knives
Hit the nail on the head, I agree with just about everything you say here. This update is great in that it brings a little something for every type of player, be you speed-runner, combat-fanatic, epic-builder or casual role-player. Solo minded or group-based, there's something there for you. And hands down, the world modifiers is the thing that will cater to everyone to some extent, and is the best part of this update, as you say.
Some other kind of items to purchase would be nice, otherwise this is a very neat update. Only other thing I think would improve it would maybe to make the dungeons slightly less rare.
My other problem with the clothing rewards is that while the clothing looks cool, it's not worth wearing when you explore and play the game because it is not very protective as an armor set, so after getting the clothes you can only really wear it at home
This video seems about right. I agree that it would be good to have something of actual utility available from Hildir in addition to the clothing that gets unlocked, but this isn't a big issue. The difficulty customization definitely has the most impact here, and once word filters out, I think the game might sell to people who were previously on the fence. I'm one of those players who doesn't like the combat but was drawn to the game for the building, exploration, and hunt for resources. Before this update, I had to use the cheat console to make the game tolerable, but the difficulty customization provides a more elegant solution and works better in many ways. Disabling raids removes the need to create a separate world to kill bosses and hang trophies. Peaceful mode for the monsters allows me to do whatever I'm doing without the constant irritant of monster attacks - the monsters have effectively become wildlife, and they only need to be hunted when particular resources are required. (Now, I wish some of the monsters behaved like deer to make the hunt a little more interesting.) The easiest combat difficulty level makes the fighting less of a pain. So far, I think bosses and tougher monsters (i.e. trolls) could use an option to nerf them further for lazy combat-haters like me. They are still tedious slogs, though they are less deadly. I'll have to fight more of them as I progress to see if this is a general problem. The snapping options for building are also a great improvement. I've especially noticed the difference when I build bridges and docks, which now goes a lot faster than it once did. Portal options are nice too - in the earlier game when I don't have a lot of infrastructure built up, being able to transport metals saves a lot of time, but I am tempted to do a no-portal playthrough and rely entirely on transport infrastructure for all materials.
I think the world settings is my most hyped feature. The ability to customize your experience is always a benefit, especially because of how not allowing players to teleport certain items slowed down the game tremendously for me and often led to some frustrating experiences where you have to sail to a swamp because you're short by 2 iron. And not only that, but the ability to have us challenge ourselves with more difficulty options absolutely adds more replayability
Finding Hilda's base is not so difficult if you know where to look for it (3000-5000m from the center). You don't need to search every meter of the map either, because similar to Haldor, Hilda's place appears as a dress symbol at about twice the vision distance on the minimap. In Hilda's base there is a table that shows the locations of secret dungeons. Really like the update, like the world modifiers. Just why doesn't Hilda offer pants, only dresses? Did vikings only have dresses?
I'd enjoy another pair of pants. I get the system where "chest" and "leg" armor are combined, but I'd like to see them separated eventually to mix and match more. I wanna be fashionable while I'm farming acres and acres of onions, okay?
God i agree, having vanity slots like in terraria would make just about any game better, and especially this one considering it just added a bunch of vanity
Biggest thing I need is a gamma slider. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve almost backed out the game because I’m walking somewhere and suddenly my screen is pitch black. I hate how dark it is.
@@7heavenfist572 agreed on that last part,as far as I know you can only make the screen darker on than the default on Xbox, and ya boy too broke to buy curtains to play one game😂 now please don’t get me wrong,
@@7heavenfist572 I love the game very very much and it’s been taking up a lot of my time recently😂 I feel like it’s a pretty universal and basic feature, and it would do loads to improve my love for the game
I agree with other comments where in addition, having the minibosses drop a single magic trinket would be really dope. Only one worn at a time in the special accessory slot, where they'd all give minor buffs or effects based on the miniboss. A fire ring that nullifies cold at night, perhaps rids you of wet debuff while in shelter. Could add fire damage to weapon swings or deal recoil damage to enemies upon being hit A cold necklace that provides fire resistance? Or it could add a frost effect to your weapon swings. Lifesteal even? A Fuling feather or buckle that gave a "last chance" effect on taking lethal damage, a shield or resistance of some sort
I have to add though since iron gate will probably also reason the comment that all the add ons in this patch are welcomed thoroughly and I'm grateful they listen to us fans.
Thanks for the new info, Sir! I appreciate your personal opinions on the new content. I've been trying out some of the speed running strats in early game content. I don't get very far, but it helps me bide time until there is something new to do. Anyway, thanks and have a great day. -Tim
Thanks nick. I totally agree on your summary. This is a great (small!) update, but the quest completions should be a little more rewarding, e.g. Build pieces to increase comfort level, some cloths with passives, new food/meat, etc. Hope they will consider that 🙂
The diffrent bosses should drop uppgrades for the diffrent mage weapons brenna for the skelle summon thingy fuiling for the shield and the wolf for the ice staff maybe they could a third surtling mini boss for the fire wand since it would make it so every bimoe(exept medaows would have a mini boss and every mage weapon gets an uppgrade
Man, I love this game so much. It makes me feel like games did in the early 2000s. Mystery, excitement, wonder, action. It's a real gem. Ive bought 4 copies (for myself and friends) and have over 1000 hours played and I'm still not bored of it. Thank you, Iron Gate. And thank you for covering it!
i wish they could add just more enemies and passive mobs like raccons etc. yeti's in snow biome, maybe some sort of ghost (only in night) in black forest OR ghost appear when there's more than 3 players graveyards in area. some new sea monsters like kraken, maybe boss. the game has so much potential, unlucky there's not that much if you played vanilla for hundreds of hours, at least there's ton of cool mods
Since the quest is optional and relatively difficult, I can understand the reasoning by not locking anything too powerful or useful behind it. An addition to the modifiers I'd LOVE to see is no rain damage to structures, and, as others have mentioned, a gamma slider (instead of changing monitor profile at night to see anything).
I like the update! New features and add on always nice! And for folks who don’t play modded Valheim this is a major game changer and can allow for allot more enjoyment. If you play with mods.. not really other then content.. and for now 90% of mods broke yet again lol
When I first found out about hilda's request I message 1 of the developers in regards to The clothing and ask them if there would be any buffs added to these clothing such as things for around the house things (building, wood cutting, mining, farming etc) just like the fishing hat. But I didn't get a response. So for us just to get meh clothing with low defense and no buffs, had me feeling like "why didn't they do that??"
They may need to add more armor and weapon stats not for going RPG but its more thrilling and fun to find rare weapons and armor stats just like V rising.
I agree with the reward for the new bosses. You can make it like when you bring back the chest she has a new item open up for sale and when you buy it a recipe unlocks for a piece of a 3 piece armor set. Also if you want to add a cape to the armor set you can make it so when you get the third chest and build the third piece of armor that she would unlock another item for a recipe for a matching cloak. At this point I find the new vendor has little to offer. Pretty dresses are fine for vikings but they need weapons and armor to survive in Valheim. Building will be much easier and I like the casual and hard playthrough settings.
From a purely role play standpoint, it seems a bit wonky that Hildir sends you off on a quest to retrieve her chests that have all the stock for her shop, and your reward is... now you can buy stuff. That feels like finding someone's lost dog and your reward for returning it is they'll hire you to give their dog a bath for $10. Gee, thanks. At least let us pick one item for free from each chest.
:) just like doing hardcore fishing for getting hat that helps with fishing... Maybe gaining her favor and making her appear in Your base would be nice reward for us lonely souls there(with a significant boost of comfort of course:)...
I completely agree about the quest rewards and loot ... I think maybe a 3 part weapon you can collect and create, or as you said some side quest Armour set. Clothes are ok, but I am not chasing this content, which is a surprise to me as I love Valheim.
That would be awesome! I love that idea. 3 parts of a weapon from one dungeon type, and 3 pieces of armor from another. I'm going to clear them all anyway, but that'd be extra incentive.
I did in my video covering all the features, didn’t feel relevant to a review type video though as it doesn’t really affect my view of the update as a whole.
i think the minibosses should drop something other than the crates for cosmetics sure thats cool and all i dont want to change that, but imagine if the skeleton dropped his sword that is like an iron sword but it does fire damage too so it wouldnt be op but pretty decent if you find it early and same with the other bosses exept they drop something different
I would like it if they gave us a paper doll to equip items onto, and then an option for "skinning" the equipment. So then we could make the Carapace armor look like a maids dress, or a Santa clause outfit.
The type of player interested in rp fashion for base life is NOT interested in fighting hard mini bosses. The type of player that relishes in challenging boss fights is NOT interested in fashion rp base life. This new quest patch is a bit off....
Yeah I do wish the rewards were slightly better, Even if it was each one unlocks an item, and you need all 3 to be able to craft a weapon or somethign but when i play for real its going to be super super fun. :) Thanks for the video!
I love the new World settings cause i got tired to farm iron and then just ship it to my base for like 5000 hours. I'm definitly using the setting for the portals😂
It's not like you couldn't teleport ores before. You could fill your inventory, log out and go into another world and dump it all in a chest. Then you log back in the first world, go through the portal to your base, and then log out and get the iron.
@@Peppanomaly yeah i did that after the first 2 times. But its still anoying as hell and it comes down to the same thing. Why not enable it in the first place?
I totally agree this are almost my thoughts about the update aswell. About reward there could be one very easy solution for Iron Gate. They could finally add a recipe for the Dyrnwyn (Iron FireSword) which already exist in the. Accesable with Brennas trophy and 30 Iron and you can craft it at the normal forge. So you have actually a reason to search Hildir/Brenna early ingame to get it asap.
I agree a lot with drops being used for new gear forging or the drops themselves could be the gear. For example if you kill all instances of Brenna you get the Dyrnwyn, thus giving you the motive to do all the travelling and searching for all the dungeons if you really want the reward and don;t mind the grind too much. Something similar could be dropping from other two . Maybe like the Rider's Locket from Zil to be worn when riding loxes and Cold essence to imbue the frost attack on your flesh rippers or your head gear to grand frost breath.
Valhiem devs if your reading. Listen up. For these mini bosses dropping the chest, keep that and keep all the stuff you got now BUT when you give the chest, this is a idea. Make it so when you go to haldor make it so you can buy a item or weapon like the mini boss after you give his sister the chest. She could be like “I’ll put in a good word with my brother blah blah blah”. Valhiem devs I got more ideas so HIT ME UP
Really wouldve been nice if the clothing gave us set bonuses or passive buffs for things besides combat. maybe pjs increase the rested duration from sleeping and other things like that
best part is by far world modifiers one of the most annoying parts of the game was skill loss i think it should be there but toned down, and now i can do it
Agreed. Even if it was just progression to the next level was lost. But losing gained levels is ridiculous and kills the thrill of wanting to continue adventuring
@@NickRawcliffe I agree with what you said in the video. HQ is a good addition but the rewards being mainly cosmetics Is a little disheartening. I'm sure it's great for some, but I don't see myself ever buying the clothes
What if Hilda gets raided while you're there and you have to defeat the "boss" sending the raid. Instead of this random slight chance of finding the dungeon you get a boss marker there.
@@JondarKorric Ahh well ty for the info... I haven't played the ptr, I'm always on my pub server. I just hope we don't issues finder her and the dungeons once the update drops.
After so many new worlds and characters, i like to use commands to get the basics done. then i go to a more self induced hardcore mode so im happy i wont have to input the commands. I got a little past iron on a legit play, so i usually set myself back to that point and build a starter village; then i turn commands off. Im going to enjoy going no map and increased difficulty.
The only part I don't like is that BOATS seem to take damage for no apparent reason, while sailing. Hopefully the dev will fix or at least explain the reason for it.
That's never happened to me. Something super annoying however is whenever you fight something like a deathsquitto it's impossible not to damage your boat while swinging at the enemy. But the biggest problem is how enemies will often swim to your parked boat and destroy it for the luls, it's so fucking stupid
I don't understand why everyone is saying that the new dungeons are rare and hard to find. you can just click on her table to get all of the locations.
I’m playing from the Xbox game pass on pc, the game hasn’t updated yet, the latest patch is the midsommer stuff. It won’t let me update the game anymore. How am I supposed to play with this new update?
I stopped playing valheim because the grind for resources was just sooooooo long. Then I discovered cheats, and that ended the game for me, no reason to to the grind, yet no reason to play. The world modifiers is the most welcome change that could ever be added, I can't wait to be able to play casually, without worrying of spending hundreds of hours farming stuff that just to build some furniture for the base.
im waiting for the new playdifficult settings. then you can make a sweet village without getting raided or play hardcore or whatever. That is the best. For Hildir, we will see, how much we will use.
And the game lacks heavily on not using classes, that sucks badly, or having sets for different classes, is such a sad component to not use that , if you ever ever played the game twice is just because they realized a huge update, if not you already exactly know the progression what items to go to, do exactly the same thing again , terraria has melee, range, summoner, mage , etc i played the game 10 times just because i wanted to try different characters tier progression threw the game, here is just the same
I agree with the channel narrator. Clothing only appeals to the female player base. Most dudes are not going to care about new clothing or esthetic's. NOW if a new medium sized boat or armor or am backpack for more storage. Something of ease of play a useful item would be better. It' amazing how genius this developer is and they keep missing the mark with expansions. Or a alloy gate portal that allows you to xfer metals through a hyper port SOMETHING.
Hi I'm the casual who turned off raids and made mobs easy as soon as the Public Test Version finished downloading. World Modifiers saved my gaming experience, it can save yours too! BUT there's TWO things I still wanna see added to the game... Resin Barrels and a slider to TURN OFF TREE DAMAGE. Also, the Epic Loot Mod should just be a default game feature. Anyway, thanks for the video!
@@Peppanomaly killing greydwarfs with falling trees is the best feature of this game 😁 I think an option to turn off structure damage would be nice however. And automatic refill of torches...
good content but worst reward, i expected some armor or weapons and shield, but cosmetic ? i suggest make a new set armor "the hildirs set" helm, chest and pants
I was really hoping the clothing wasn't just pure rp fashion. Like, adding a farming, baking, smithing skill ect... and then tying these clothing pieces to a set for a base job would have been cool. As it stands I am ZERO percent interested in rp base life clothes for the sake of just fashion.
I think they should add a work station where you can combine genuine gear with these aesthetic pieces and get the fun appearance but have the protection of genuine gear
Will we have to start new seed for the update, or will it spawn in unexplored locations of our current ones? Also, any idea when it is supposed to dorp? I've returned recently with a friend to the game and we're still pre-Elder, taking it slowly, no idea if we should wait or can continue to play our seed.
It would be really cool if they add a piece of armor from each of the new bosses so that, once all are defeated, you have a new set of armor with a unique set bonus you can buy from Hildir or craft.
that would be an ACTUAL reward, i dont hate rewards for RP but if they are the only reward for such effort then its a pass for me. The concept of Hildir quests is really cool tho

Totally agree
Thanks nick. I totally agree on your summary. This is a great (small!) update, but the quest completions should be a little more rewarding, e.g. Build pieces to increase comfort level, some cloths with passives, new food/meat, etc. Hope they will consider that 🙂
The diffrent bosses should drop uppgrades for the diffrent mage weapons brenna for the skelle summon thingy fuiling for the shield and the wolf for the ice staff maybe they could a third surtling mini boss for the fire wand since it would make it so every bimoe(exept medaows would have a mini boss and every mage weapon gets an uppgrade
Man, I love this game so much.
It makes me feel like games did in the early 2000s.
Mystery, excitement, wonder, action. It's a real gem. Ive bought 4 copies (for myself and friends) and have over 1000 hours played and I'm still not bored of it.
Thank you, Iron Gate.
And thank you for covering it!
i wish they could add just more enemies and passive mobs like raccons etc. yeti's in snow biome, maybe some sort of ghost (only in night) in black forest OR ghost appear when there's more than 3 players graveyards in area. some new sea monsters like kraken, maybe boss. the game has so much potential, unlucky there's not that much if you played vanilla for hundreds of hours, at least there's ton of cool mods
Since the quest is optional and relatively difficult, I can understand the reasoning by not locking anything too powerful or useful behind it.
An addition to the modifiers I'd LOVE to see is no rain damage to structures, and, as others have mentioned, a gamma slider (instead of changing monitor profile at night to see anything).
I think the way to make the new cosmetic armor worth while... it could give extra rested buff. Like a 3 set bonus. Since they took away rugs stacking
I like the update! New features and add on always nice! And for folks who don’t play modded Valheim this is a major game changer and can allow for allot more enjoyment.
If you play with mods.. not really other then content.. and for now 90% of mods broke yet again lol
True
I'll definitely come back to try out the world modifers once ashlands releases.
Interesting there will be a tonne to check out then for sure
When I first found out about hilda's request I message 1 of the developers in regards to The clothing and ask them if there would be any buffs added to these clothing such as things for around the house things (building, wood cutting, mining, farming etc) just like the fishing hat. But I didn't get a response. So for us just to get meh clothing with low defense and no buffs, had me feeling like "why didn't they do that??"
They may need to add more armor and weapon stats not for going RPG but its more thrilling and fun to find rare weapons and armor stats just like V rising.
True
I agree with the reward for the new bosses. You can make it like when you bring back the chest she has a new item open up for sale and when you buy it a recipe unlocks for a piece of a 3 piece armor set. Also if you want to add a cape to the armor set you can make it so when you get the third chest and build the third piece of armor that she would unlock another item for a recipe for a matching cloak. At this point I find the new vendor has little to offer. Pretty dresses are fine for vikings but they need weapons and armor to survive in Valheim. Building will be much easier and I like the casual and hard playthrough settings.
From a purely role play standpoint, it seems a bit wonky that Hildir sends you off on a quest to retrieve her chests that have all the stock for her shop, and your reward is... now you can buy stuff. That feels like finding someone's lost dog and your reward for returning it is they'll hire you to give their dog a bath for $10. Gee, thanks. At least let us pick one item for free from each chest.
:) just like doing hardcore fishing for getting hat that helps with fishing... Maybe gaining her favor and making her appear in Your base would be nice reward for us lonely souls there(with a significant boost of comfort of course:)...
I completely agree about the quest rewards and loot ... I think maybe a 3 part weapon you can collect and create, or as you said some side quest Armour set. Clothes are ok, but I am not chasing this content, which is a surprise to me as I love Valheim.
That would be awesome! I love that idea. 3 parts of a weapon from one dungeon type, and 3 pieces of armor from another. I'm going to clear them all anyway, but that'd be extra incentive.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the black forge and galdr table upgrades for level 3 gear.
I did in my video covering all the features, didn’t feel relevant to a review type video though as it doesn’t really affect my view of the update as a whole.
I was today years old when I found out one can open the ancient coffins in the tombs
i think the minibosses should drop something other than the crates for cosmetics sure thats cool and all i dont want to change that, but imagine if the skeleton dropped his sword that is like an iron sword but it does fire damage too so it wouldnt be op but pretty decent if you find it early and same with the other bosses exept they drop something different
I would like it if they gave us a paper doll to equip items onto, and then an option for "skinning" the equipment. So then we could make the Carapace armor look like a maids dress, or a Santa clause outfit.
Can't wait to play Valheim on Hard mode
The type of player interested in rp fashion for base life is NOT interested in fighting hard mini bosses. The type of player that relishes in challenging boss fights is NOT interested in fashion rp base life. This new quest patch is a bit off....
good point. At first I thought the clothing would be equipped ON TOP of your equipment, but it replaces it, whilst not providing anything. It's silly
Yeah I do wish the rewards were slightly better, Even if it was each one unlocks an item, and you need all 3 to be able to craft a weapon or somethign but when i play for real its going to be super super fun. :) Thanks for the video!
When will this update hit the main build? Excited to play it with my friends!
I love the new World settings cause i got tired to farm iron and then just ship it to my base for like 5000 hours. I'm definitly using the setting for the portals😂
It's not like you couldn't teleport ores before. You could fill your inventory, log out and go into another world and dump it all in a chest. Then you log back in the first world, go through the portal to your base, and then log out and get the iron.
@@Peppanomaly yeah i did that after the first 2 times. But its still anoying as hell and it comes down to the same thing. Why not enable it in the first place?
There’s actually a trader npc thought it was a myth seeing how he’s impossible to find
You are right....I don't care about the clothes. But weapon, or special buff would be cool for defeating the mini boss.
I totally agree this are almost my thoughts about the update aswell. About reward there could be one very easy solution for Iron Gate. They could finally add a recipe for the Dyrnwyn (Iron FireSword) which already exist in the. Accesable with Brennas trophy and 30 Iron and you can craft it at the normal forge. So you have actually a reason to search Hildir/Brenna early ingame to get it asap.
I agree a lot with drops being used for new gear forging or the drops themselves could be the gear. For example if you kill all instances of Brenna you get the Dyrnwyn, thus giving you the motive to do all the travelling and searching for all the dungeons if you really want the reward and don;t mind the grind too much. Something similar could be dropping from other two . Maybe like the Rider's Locket from Zil to be worn when riding loxes and Cold essence to imbue the frost attack on your flesh rippers or your head gear to grand frost breath.
Does the new minibosses respawn? Can multiple players on a community server all do the quests solo, or is it a one time event?
Valhiem devs if your reading. Listen up. For these mini bosses dropping the chest, keep that and keep all the stuff you got now BUT when you give the chest, this is a idea. Make it so when you go to haldor make it so you can buy a item or weapon like the mini boss after you give his sister the chest. She could be like “I’ll put in a good word with my brother blah blah blah”. Valhiem devs I got more ideas so HIT ME UP
Really wouldve been nice if the clothing gave us set bonuses or passive buffs for things besides combat. maybe pjs increase the rested duration from sleeping and other things like that
best part is by far world modifiers one of the most annoying parts of the game was skill loss i think it should be there but toned down, and now i can do it
Agreed. Even if it was just progression to the next level was lost. But losing gained levels is ridiculous and kills the thrill of wanting to continue adventuring
I've gotta be honest. It feels a little lackluster. Absolutely adore this game though..
I agree with the second part
@@NickRawcliffe I agree with what you said in the video. HQ is a good addition but the rewards being mainly cosmetics Is a little disheartening. I'm sure it's great for some, but I don't see myself ever buying the clothes
What if Hilda gets raided while you're there and you have to defeat the "boss" sending the raid. Instead of this random slight chance of finding the dungeon you get a boss marker there.
it isn't a "slight chance" she's standing at a map that you can interact with to get the dungeon locations
@@JondarKorric Ahh well ty for the info... I haven't played the ptr, I'm always on my pub server. I just hope we don't issues finder her and the dungeons once the update drops.
I just realized that they made the clothes for players that don't actually like exploring and probably won't be able to beat the bosses alone. Lol...
After so many new worlds and characters, i like to use commands to get the basics done. then i go to a more self induced hardcore mode so im happy i wont have to input the commands. I got a little past iron on a legit play, so i usually set myself back to that point and build a starter village; then i turn commands off. Im going to enjoy going no map and increased difficulty.
"hildr is in a safe spot"
Bro shes next to the plains for me XD
The only part I don't like is that BOATS seem to take damage for no apparent reason, while sailing. Hopefully the dev will fix or at least explain the reason for it.
That's never happened to me. Something super annoying however is whenever you fight something like a deathsquitto it's impossible not to damage your boat while swinging at the enemy. But the biggest problem is how enemies will often swim to your parked boat and destroy it for the luls, it's so fucking stupid
I don't understand why everyone is saying that the new dungeons are rare and hard to find. you can just click on her table to get all of the locations.
imagine if brenna could drop his sword the dyrnywyrn it would be so cool
that little yoda dude is proper creepy
I’m playing from the Xbox game pass on pc, the game hasn’t updated yet, the latest patch is the midsommer stuff. It won’t let me update the game anymore. How am I supposed to play with this new update?
I love the new update it is great I just wish that the bosses were more rewarding.
I stopped playing valheim because the grind for resources was just sooooooo long. Then I discovered cheats, and that ended the game for me, no reason to to the grind, yet no reason to play. The world modifiers is the most welcome change that could ever be added, I can't wait to be able to play casually, without worrying of spending hundreds of hours farming stuff that just to build some furniture for the base.
just dropping a line for the youtube overlords, I'll be back when I've tried it myself. Im super curious tho.
Is there a hardcore speed run category? What settings would they be
I like the plains boss! Reminds me of mad max beyond thunderdome.
I think they should make it so the world modifiers menu shows up when you make a world, so new players don't miss it
Nick, which of the settings are you most looking forward to using, or will you be sticking with vanilla settings?
can you apply those world modifiers to an existing world or do you have to start on a fresh world ? I absolutely CBA restarting everything
Great commentary. I concur with all your points.
im waiting for the new playdifficult settings. then you can make a sweet village without getting raided or play hardcore or whatever. That is the best. For Hildir, we will see, how much we will use.
I am sooooo excited for the snapping update
Nice
Me too
No Map, No Portal Heim just hits different.
Its so immersive.
I love your videos bro thank you for taking the time to explain things 😁 you’ve been a great help!
i had the new ice minnboss spawn in a normal icecave
cabnt wait to play!
Armor stands need to swap current armors, not just pop it off. that woudl be a step closer to loadouts
I've not found her yet. Still searching
no, you can not build in plains boss location because mythical force doesn't allow that.
And the game lacks heavily on not using classes, that sucks badly, or having sets for different classes, is such a sad component to not use that , if you ever ever played the game twice is just because they realized a huge update, if not you already exactly know the progression what items to go to, do exactly the same thing again , terraria has melee, range, summoner, mage , etc i played the game 10 times just because i wanted to try different characters tier progression threw the game, here is just the same
Would it be possible to modify world settings on already existing worlds or do we have to make a new world to modify its settings?
you can modify settings many times ( harder/easy, no portals, etc) and continue to play
cosmetics only makes it a dud. Plus the more you discover on the map means lees possible future spawn points for other updates.
Hey, its more content. Im happy
Cool stuff but I have no reason to do any of it :/ unless they add transmog slots I’m not gonna wear any of this
Maybe if you get all 3 chests and max the vendor out, only then will she let you buy transmogs
I agree with the channel narrator. Clothing only appeals to the female player base. Most dudes are not going to care about new clothing or esthetic's. NOW if a new medium sized boat or armor or am backpack for more storage. Something of ease of play a useful item would be better. It' amazing how genius this developer is and they keep missing the mark with expansions. Or a alloy gate portal that allows you to xfer metals through a hyper port SOMETHING.
how can I get this update? Nobody is explaining this in any video, and I don't have this update on my game.
I just set up valheim plus yesterday lol. I should have waited.
Hi I'm the casual who turned off raids and made mobs easy as soon as the Public Test Version finished downloading. World Modifiers saved my gaming experience, it can save yours too! BUT there's TWO things I still wanna see added to the game... Resin Barrels and a slider to TURN OFF TREE DAMAGE. Also, the Epic Loot Mod should just be a default game feature.
Anyway, thanks for the video!
Turn off tree damage? What? xd
@@Peppanomaly killing greydwarfs with falling trees is the best feature of this game 😁 I think an option to turn off structure damage would be nice however. And automatic refill of torches...
Hildir Simp at 7:22 lmao
😂 I would never…
I want to play without map and portals as well! HARDCORE IS COMING!!
good content but worst reward, i expected some armor or weapons and shield, but cosmetic ? i suggest make a new set armor "the hildirs set" helm, chest and pants
I was really hoping the clothing wasn't just pure rp fashion. Like, adding a farming, baking, smithing skill ect... and then tying these clothing pieces to a set for a base job would have been cool. As it stands I am ZERO percent interested in rp base life clothes for the sake of just fashion.
Does this clothing have any armor? Like can you wear it in any fight whatsoever?
I think they should add a work station where you can combine genuine gear with these aesthetic pieces and get the fun appearance but have the protection of genuine gear
its good in my opinion but some things could be changed a bit but overall its pretty good
Will we have to start new seed for the update, or will it spawn in unexplored locations of our current ones?
Also, any idea when it is supposed to dorp?
I've returned recently with a friend to the game and we're still pre-Elder, taking it slowly, no idea if we should wait or can continue to play our seed.
You can continue to play
I wish they had named her something else because dyslexic people like myself read it as something 🇩🇪. 😅
I'm 100% fine with this, the alternative was microtransactions for cosmetics... bleh
do i need to start a new map to get new bosses?
Thanks Nick. Your great.
I forgot this game was a thing.
I'll watch these when it's out on xbox, I assume there be spoilers? Lol.
