Mufasa: "Everything the stone touches is our foundation, my son." Simba: "What about that red piece over there?" Mufasa: "That is too far out. You must never build over there."
I like to excavate the area around and under the elder's place and get a levitating foundation with pillars at the corners. A fire in the center already is a bonus.
We also made a base atop a rock and close to the water at plains , near a large mistlands biome to be ready for whenever they release it. We actually dressed the entire rock with stone walls , so that the rock itself stays covered and the stone ladder going up ends up straight and perfect. It cost around 2000 stone though. At the top you end up with around 7x7 stone base if done properly (varies per rock type), so there is enough support for an additional 4 decently sized wooden floors and enough space for everything without having to use horizontal iron beams , which honestly are expensive to do it legit and buggy as f. They can even float in the air......................... A nice way to save space , is building the ladders which connect the floors on the outside of the building. You can also use multiple layers of stone archs near the top to further expand outwards , but it's pretty tough to build without cheats and are sometimes really random when it comes to breaking. Also placed a portal from top to bottom but you need the ladder in case you want to transfer ore on your crafting stations on top. At the bottom , we dug and flooded the perimeter with water , made a nice port and further dressed the stone with wood , in order to apply spikes. You can even descent the huge tower , by jumping in the water if you don't mind the wet debuff. We even placed a bonfire at the bottom to dry up if needed xD Overall an amazing result and a lovely base , i sometimes end up staring at it for quite a while. Worth all the work ! As for all the buildings , the only problem was the windmill , we couldn't place it atop the base no matter what we tried , sometimes it got placed but instantly destroyed so we decided to keep it on the ground below.
You can build on the Swamp trees, and they pretty much are indestructible, been building something close to Kelethin or an ewok village. You also can do this on the plains monolithic rocks
Moats can help further fortify the trees, except then they still are prone to ranged attacks. Though with the ability to make moats and fortify with raising the ground, I sense more flying mobs may be in the future of the game.
So here's my thought... if a 10x10 is viable between the trees then mark your area and build the ground around the outside up to the height of the trolls leaving a 9x9 hollowed out on the inside. You would get a lot of height and out of it as well as an impressive basement. Gives you plenty of room for crafting, storage, and dinner parties.
helpful video. My only problem is you can't portal up with metal, and therefore all the forging and stuff has to be on the ground, defeating the purpose of a cool, tall tower
Did you know with create stone if you zig zag 5 spaces each direction (right to left) you can go higher and higher before you use wood and for only 4 stone each time no matter how high you go. So if you go high enough you can make a limitless stone quarry. But no ones thought of that yet
I guess to summarize simply is as long as your firmly anchored towards any natural structure that touches the ground you can build skyward with it and the higher the structure the better and further up you can build. Using creativity is a huge plus! I somehow wouldn't be surprised if someone figure out and do a water structures in the sea close to land somewhat, like an Oil Rig structure in dangerous land Biome areas.
@@Firespark81 Event can trigger if player Y position is below 3000, and the event requires a nearby base + a player is near a base of value 3 or more. The base value is calculated in a sphere around the player, where it counts how many items (building items etc) of type PlayerBase are near. I'm not sure what is marked as PlayerBase yet.
I was just wondering today about the Iron Beams. I thought they just had more hit points. Was not aware they could create foundation. Just adding them to the corner of an existing structure works wonders. Was able to get the roofs right on a couple of buildings I had to lower. OMG. I didnt know about Fly. Wish I had known a week ago. Ive died like a 100X jumping or falling off a contraption I had to build to construct something. I was able to finish a dock I couldnt do because the waves would make my hammer unequip from where i had to stand and I couldnt get the right angle to snap stuff.
I made a 4 tower keep, rooms in between the towers at ground level, with an open courtyard in the center. Each tower is 7 floors (14 full walls high) with a bridge connecting each of the towers at the top. The only materials I used were wood and core wood. This was all done in the meadows, at the edge of the black forest for easy harvesting of materials.
Another fun thing to do which I started messing around with is Lake bases. Earlier today I got bored and made a deathpit in the middle of a lake (WARNING: this does require debugmode active to raise the ground high enough to place the 4x2 stone block and build your structure). My initial plan was to recreate a "floating" base similar to that of Waterworld, but there are a lot of limitations so far to that idea, at least with the current lake I'm using.
I always wondered what started the chain reaction on the other side of the exhaust port that the Rebels bombed in Star Wars. It was all held together with a pine tree! The Empire really should of put down some thick stone walls around the trunk, the could of saved the Death Star.
Put the spikes down first THEN raisr ground. This will give the effect of protrusion from within making them that much harder to be destroyed by mobs while still dealing the damage to anyone near base
Just have multiple trees at half the spacing they need to be for the structure to stay standing so that if one gets broken the adjacent trees take over.
I don't think anything is. We've built towers atop these rocks and deathsquitos will awkwardly fly all the way to the top and are able to attack you up there. Luckily they're easy to kill, and also it's really rare unless you see the rock is near a random spawning spot. in which case you can also build things to stop the spawn regardless.
I've experimented with just this but was only allowed 3 or 4 stone layers on top of 9 iron poles so it isn't exactly the same as starting with stone. I guess you could support every so many stone layers seperately with an iron beam clipping in to it but I'm not even sure iron allows for infinite height. I feel a system is in place where you start with 100% integrity at foundation and every wood block deducts 20%, every stone deducts 10-5% and every wood iron takes away less than that. Yet wood somehow "resets" when connected to iron or stone
Relatively new subscriber here. Thanks for your efforts in putting out these videos! I was wondering if you had any info regarding difficulty scaling in Valheim? Lots of conflicting info out there. Have heard number of days effects it, number of players either on the server and/or within the same vicinity, how many bosses you have defeated, what biomes you have explored and so on. Thanks ahead of time for any clarity you can add to all this :)
Okay, but can you build an underground base? Like digging a huge hole, using supports like mine, making a roof covered with fake earth and placing a trap door.
You can build an unddrground base, but only under huge rocks. Meadows has some, black forest has lots(normal and copper works), swamp none, mountains some and plains narrow ones only. With carefull use of a pickaxe you can even make a chimney through the rock. Trolls can still destroy these rocks so moat or something is a nice protection
Actually I just thought having workbenches around base, it's stated, creatures will not spawn, so I'm going to make this in a second trial base to see!
I have a question here... Do mobs only attack the structure on their way to destroy the workbench or It just randomly attacks the structure without a workbench nearby???
It's a triggered random game event that the game does. It's like the game knows you are in or live in an area and a random event will spawn where the mobs themselves will go on a raiding party to your doorsteps. It happens in every biome area. You can fight off the mobs or hide from the mobs, but the mobs can smash and destroy anything that belongs to you. It can be scary when it happens at night too.
I hope I get the chance the do a crazy build with this before they patch it out. I do like the idea of tree houses though I hope they build upon the tree building mechanic
Any tips for making circular bases? And also, how viable for a support are the 4m log beams, do those have any advantage over their smaller counterparts? Thanks for the video, it gave me a lot of new ideas.
@@TheDwarfishjoe Well, obviously I'm asking about circular bases because of what I saw and heard in the video. In most designs I've tried floor and roof looks rather ugly, which is why I've asked for tips. As for the core wood beams, no mentions of those in this one (nor in the update to the structural integrity one), and since I like their looks I wonder if there's any way to use them to my advantage. If you've watched the video you might have noticed that it was about building high structures, not round ones.
The 4m log beams are really good as cross beam support. Since they are long, they are counted as 1 pc away from the foundation piece, rather than the 2m wood beams or log beams. The only problem is that they don't have slanted log beams to use as proper structure supports but it's no biggie. Tips for making circular structures are quite easy, you use the 2m beams and place em 1 'mouse wheel click' adjacent to each other. The radius is about 5 square floors if I recall correctly.
I believe you can mine stone in such a way that it can be completely detached from the ground and it still won't break. I have an idea to build a fort at the top of one of those stone pillars and then destroy the base of the pillar so I'll have a floating city in the sky. Alas I have only just barely made it to the plains now.
These stone pillars are no different then a Tree as base. They are very much destructible as any other minable rock. Safest things to build on for height are either swamp trees or Mistland trees. Even if Mistlands aren't finished, you can already go and build there And the trees are colossal.
Yeah, it will fall down if you mine out enough of it. But, disagree re the same as trees. The rocks will withstand an absolute buttload more abuse than a single tree. So much so that it's never worth worrying about. For our triangle foundation built upon three rock towers, not one of them has taken damage. As long as you don't aggro loxes near your rock base it will not be an issue
If you enter creative mode, does it put the other people on the server in creative mode or just you? And do they know your in creative mode if you are on a completely different island?
the splash damage from trolls goes right through wood and destroys things on the other side, you may want to make your defensive wall a bit further from the tree.
Hey i have a request. Since some of the player are actually MMORPGS Lovers like crazy, can u please show us the math about the skills impact, weapons damage and everything? These hacks uve made recently helps me solo a lot, thankyou!
I built a stone structure between two of those pillars. You can actual build the stone as far as you can build the iron supports and they act as grounded the whole time! Do a video on that Fire!
I want a rock foundation but don't want to have to go the Plains just for that. So can you just raise the ground as big and as high as the rock in the plains ? Was hoping you show something like that but you went straight to the plains instead.
Can you do a video on how and where enemy home base encounters happen so I can better protect my houses? Like do they spawn in the center or outside the gates? We have a large 6 person bases in the meadows and want to protect it but not make it look bad with each house having spiky fences around them.
In my experience they spawn at the same spots every time. What determines where that is I cant say. I had one smelting facility and I thought it was well guarded since it had a steep, high hill behind it. The mobs would just run or slide down the slope and be on my porch. Since it wasnt taking terrain into account, my guess is that its just x distance from the workbench. So back to my first point. Since the trolls always spawn at X, i'll build stuff there to distract them for a bit and then just lure them away from the house. The lower level mobs are easily distracted by standing torches. I just dont light them and stick them around the area. See where you mobs spawn in and then just fortify those areas
The problem with tree houses is that if in an event where you didn't have good defenses, that tree can be chopped down easily by either 1) griefers 2) trolls. Honestly, by then you shouldn't have problem with trolls but in the case of new players, it's not that good an idea. However, if you can bunch up a few pine trees together, you can have that as your central pillar piece with core wood acting as cross beams with good support. Just a thought.
Events don't need a bed. I was out mining in another biome with just a box, bench, safety wall and this trigger two events in a hour. Not sure what does it, but my guess would be bench. If not in debug mode, how would you get down? Stairs? Wish we had rope ladders.
I just found out that you can literally cheat everything in this game, just press F5 and the console menu pops up, type help and you get every command. It would not bother me when its just in single player possible. WHAT BOTHERS ME IS: You can use it in any server, and if not, just go in your own server, give your character max stats 100 everything, and voila join the server of your choice. All my friends quit the game after that, no point in playing the game, its just another sandbox game.
Simply don't cheat the game because at that point there is no challenge and for your friends as well some will see there is no point and challenge as well and just quit. Part of the fun of some things is the having a challenge to the journey. Just try and play with friends and face some challenge together and that's the fun in play. God Mode just kills it for quite a many people.
@FireSpark81 Hey great video, but I found this giant tree in the mistlands that can't be currently cut down. Maybe ya could try that instead of normal tree. Btw love your content mate so helpful :D
i was hoping to see a test of how high you can stack raised ground -> stone -> iron beam then normal wood, or if those thing can even stack the way im assuming they can
@@LeonJagerWulf huh, seriously? the stone dosnt work like that, only the bottom one is a foundation, but any wood built off the stone becomes a foundation. i assumed the metal beams might work the same way
@@TheCcrack Saw a few builds already with iron beams stacked up insanely high, roughly the height of a full grown pine, and fully supporting the roof of their buildings.
If wood iron beams creates foundation, and stone also creates foundation is there a way to create a floating platform? If you build a small tree very high up, then build UNDER the base of the tree so it gets lifted up, then lower the ground, does it float because the tree is floating?
@@TanWJin Building pieces. Wood pieces don't have unique features on their own but if you can plant one far below a tree so that when it falls, it 'collides', you could in theory keep the tree from falling? You could also use a stone block but it seems to require the 'ground' rather than a foundation to connect from.
The idea is: The tree turns building pieces touching it into foundation. So in turn, use the building pieces to 'keep' the tree from falling by colliding with it.
Mufasa: "Everything the stone touches is our foundation, my son."
Simba: "What about that red piece over there?"
Mufasa: "That is too far out. You must never build over there."
That comment is gold!
This is the best comment.
ROFL
Dude I was just thinking the same thing when I heard it haha
Is this an original or repost tho?
Either way, I'm glad you left it there.
Is anybody else disappointed he didn't chop the tree down so we could watch it come down? *for science*
Helped me out a bunch back in the Conan days, and now helping even more with Valheim. Thanks Fire
Same lol
Same !🥳
I like to excavate the area around and under the elder's place and get a levitating foundation with pillars at the corners. A fire in the center already is a bonus.
That's a really cool idea.
Nice one.
Thats the beauty of this game.
I found 5 giant rocks. Dug out underneath them and the whole area built a base in the middle. My base is surrounded by giant floating rocks
Valheim video at 3 am on a Monday before uni? Yeah why not. Your content's great btw
Glad you enjoy it :)

Thank you for covering so much about the games you chose! I absolutely love this game. I glad you started it!
One thing cool is those super huge trees in the swamp aren't able to be damaged or cut down yet still act as foundation like a regular tree.
My trauma from The Forest wont allow me to trust treehouse bases.
Get to the highest mountain, raise the ground to the maximum allowed, plant a tree there... how really high you can get?... can you reach Yggdrasil?
You can build on the Swamp trees, and they pretty much are indestructible, been building something close to Kelethin or an ewok village. You also can do this on the plains monolithic rocks
Also once you are up there connecting to other bridges, is a portal
Very helpful Video!
Like all the others.
Thank you very much!
Keep up the good work!
ESO did a great rock pillar build too, well worth checking out. Great idea especially for such a dangerous biome.
I have treehouse spanning many trees across the swamps. It's really good living up there!
The build flexibility in this game is insane.
Yeah! It's been a blast learning it!
Better than Ark, and ark has had years to fix their game. They just don't care.
Moats can help further fortify the trees, except then they still are prone to ranged attacks. Though with the ability to make moats and fortify with raising the ground, I sense more flying mobs may be in the future of the game.

You can also use the hoe to build up earthen walls around you tree base to prevent accidental tree damage
Love your videos man keep it up!

i'd recommend raising the ground beforehand to the max, which is what i did. it gets insane

Trolls can't hit it if you raise it high enough
I made raised earth walls their indestructible an can go 3x the height of troll.
Put the spikes down first THEN raisr ground. This will give the effect of protrusion from within making them that much harder to be destroyed by mobs while still dealing the damage to anyone near base
Just have multiple trees at half the spacing they need to be for the structure to stay standing so that if one gets broken the adjacent trees take over.
Can I do tall structures at all -without- the use of Iron? With using a tree, what could i actually do? anything at all?
The having to type the "imacheater" thing is funny
what about using the indestructible trees that are even taller in the mistlands or swamps?
swamps work, have a 5 tree support, also stone wall going up to have the smelters in there
You should check out ESO new video. He built on a stone pillar in the plains. Super cool like this one. I love watching unique build videos
I love the Swamp Trees that are indestructible. If I build in them I don't need to worry about the tree getting destroyed.
Just make a pit around it and also a question is it high enough to avoid deathscitos?
I don't think anything is. We've built towers atop these rocks and deathsquitos will awkwardly fly all the way to the top and are able to attack you up there. Luckily they're easy to kill, and also it's really rare unless you see the rock is near a random spawning spot. in which case you can also build things to stop the spawn regardless.
I waited the whole time in this video to hear "Shinanagins". Rejoiced after it was said.
I've heard you can place stone pillars and walls on top of wood iron supports. Wouldn't that by itself allow infinite build height?
I've experimented with just this but was only allowed 3 or 4 stone layers on top of 9 iron poles so it isn't exactly the same as starting with stone. I guess you could support every so many stone layers seperately with an iron beam clipping in to it but I'm not even sure iron allows for infinite height.

aaaaaaaaaaand here goes hours of building upon that information!
Can you plant a tree on those plains rocks ?
Good thinking:)
Nice video. Do you happen to know the debug console command for the plains rock spires?
This works until a troll knocks down one of the trees :D
So build a trench around it. It's not rocket science kid.
@@GTRNights Hahaha, "kid". Alright man, hope you got more going for yourself than video games.
@@UltraKev81 Don't need to hope, I'm good.
I want a rock foundation but don't want to have to go the Plains just for that.
So can you just raise the ground as big and as high as the rock in the plains ?
Was hoping you show something like that but you went straight to the plains instead.
Can you do a video on how and where enemy home base encounters happen so I can better protect my houses? Like do they spawn in the center or outside the gates? We have a large 6 person bases in the meadows and want to protect it but not make it look bad with each house having spiky fences around them.
In my experience they spawn at the same spots every time. What determines where that is I cant say. I had one smelting facility and I thought it was well guarded since it had a steep, high hill behind it. The mobs would just run or slide down the slope and be on my porch. Since it wasnt taking terrain into account, my guess is that its just x distance from the workbench. So back to my first point. Since the trolls always spawn at X, i'll build stuff there to distract them for a bit and then just lure them away from the house. The lower level mobs are easily distracted by standing torches. I just dont light them and stick them around the area. See where you mobs spawn in and then just fortify those areas
@@larryhinkle9390 We have like 20 workbenches...so which one?
The problem with tree houses is that if in an event where you didn't have good defenses, that tree can be chopped down easily by either 1) griefers 2) trolls. Honestly, by then you shouldn't have problem with trolls but in the case of new players, it's not that good an idea.
However, if you can bunch up a few pine trees together, you can have that as your central pillar piece with core wood acting as cross beams with good support.
Just a thought.
maybe you can build a protective tower around the trunk of the tree.
The ward is an easy way to stop greifers
@@ianwinter7443 not to trees though, you still can farm trees if I recall correctly. However, duly sorry if I'm wrong though.
Step one. Don't play this game on an open server with anyone other than friends. The ward does nothing to stop people from getting into your base.
Take a shot every time he says foundation
8:40 How do you trigger the troll event?
Events don't need a bed. I was out mining in another biome with just a box, bench, safety wall and this trigger two events in a hour. Not sure what does it, but my guess would be bench.
If not in debug mode, how would you get down? Stairs? Wish we had rope ladders.
As I state in the video. Portal is the easiest. but you could also build stairs down.
I just found out that you can literally cheat everything in this game, just press F5 and the console menu pops up, type help and you get every command. It would not bother me when its just in single player possible. WHAT BOTHERS ME IS: You can use it in any server, and if not, just go in your own server, give your character max stats 100 everything, and voila join the server of your choice. All my friends quit the game after that, no point in playing the game, its just another sandbox game.
But if you play with your friends can't you just agree not to do it?
You have a choice to cheat. If you want to make the game fun. Don’t cheat. Simple.
Simply don't cheat the game because at that point there is no challenge and for your friends as well some will see there is no point and challenge as well and just quit. Part of the fun of some things is the having a challenge to the journey. Just try and play with friends and face some challenge together and that's the fun in play. God Mode just kills it for quite a many people.
@FireSpark81 Hey great video, but I found this giant tree in the mistlands that can't be currently cut down. Maybe ya could try that instead of normal tree. Btw love your content mate so helpful :D
To fortify the base of the tree, why not terraform up around it? So instead of building up the tree, build up around the tree instead.
Now i know how you trapped the Troll with stone cage
Perfect 💓
i was hoping to see a test of how high you can stack raised ground -> stone -> iron beam then normal wood, or if those thing can even stack the way im assuming they can
Iron beams can stack until you reach the build limit as they are considered a foundation piece.
@@LeonJagerWulf huh, seriously?
the stone dosnt work like that, only the bottom one is a foundation, but any wood built off the stone becomes a foundation. i assumed the metal beams might work the same way
@@TheCcrack Saw a few builds already with iron beams stacked up insanely high, roughly the height of a full grown pine, and fully supporting the roof of their buildings.
You are flying and therefore invisible. That troll would keep attacking if you were not invisible.
troll smash
Did you watch till the end? He actually mentioned that right after that!
Hello everybody, hope you are having a great day 👋😊
Hi! You too!!
what if you dont want a treehouse
Pine's and fir's leafs are called needles
When building on a tree the only problem is a fireplace :/ You can't place it on a wood floor... or is there some other possibility to do it?
stone floor
you can place it on core wood beam
@@dimhalo7750 I thought that got patched out of the game. Have you don't it recently?
you can place the big stone fires on wood
@@Heffy90 Yeah, those hearths are awesome!
If wood iron beams creates foundation, and stone also creates foundation is there a way to create a floating platform?
If you build a small tree very high up, then build UNDER the base of the tree so it gets lifted up, then lower the ground, does it float because the tree is floating?
Tree won't float, it'll just fall straight down but not get destroyed.
@@TanWJin So trees and Rocks do not collide with pieces. What happens to pieces if the tree falls out of reach? They get updated and destroyed?
@@dra6o0n sorry, a little confused here. what do you mean by pieces?
@@TanWJin Building pieces.
Wood pieces don't have unique features on their own but if you can plant one far below a tree so that when it falls, it 'collides', you could in theory keep the tree from falling? You could also use a stone block but it seems to require the 'ground' rather than a foundation to connect from.
The idea is:
The tree turns building pieces touching it into foundation. So in turn, use the building pieces to 'keep' the tree from falling by colliding with it.
