Just recently learned you can destroy the ward with collision damage from a cart, and it won't aggro the dwarves. Then you can pick through their stuff, and they won't care at all.
Few other things that can help: Polearms: The special 360 attack almost always one shots seeker broods and ticks and if it doesn't it stuns them for a follow up. It also does well against regular seekers. Sledges do pretty well also. Frostner: Seekers and seeker soldiers are resistant to normal attacks, but take full damage from frost, fire and poison. A fully upgraded Frostner is almost as effective as any one hand Mislands weapon you'll be able to craft later and the slow it applies is huge. Parrying: If you haven't learned how to do it well before now, it's even more important. The seekers have a strange timing that takes a little getting used to, but a successful parry means you can usually 2 shot them. And it makes the soliders WAY easier to grind down. Good luck out there!
Mistwalker is vastly better for the seekers n soldiers. The dmg on Frostner is atrocious even with its frost dmg. Mistwalker has all the dmg you'll need
@@jayr7613 True, but I think this guys advice is intended for people who just landed in the mistlands and haven't unlocked anything yet. Assuming this all his advice is really good. Polearms in particular do surprisingly well if your parry game is on point.
@buritomaster 2014 blackmetal sword does just fine. No sense in having to hit something so much just to get a slow in or because it can slow, vice just killing it in 3 4 hits, or 2 with a parry.
@@microcalifragilistic I'll give this another look though from what I recall, the blunt resistance they have is very high, so the only dmg you get is from the frost
Instead of turning hostile to Dverger, I draw enemy to their camps, and they destroy their own boxes. They don't mind when you come clean up their messes. Those Dverger camps/strongholds also are great base defense if you build next to them 😁
When first exploring mistlands. Really use those Dvergr towers and mark them. These are like safe havens incase you are overwhelmed. The mages absolutely destroy the bugs. Try and navigate between the camps, ping pong off them through the mist as you explore. Use them for protection.
Against Gjall, jump in the water before you start the fight, if you can safely. Wet debuff dramatically reduces their fire damage, usually lasts for 2 hits.
That's brutal! I'm in a long playthrough now with a buddy and we are halfway done with a large marble castle build while living in the Mist, and have yet to see even a single 2-star mistlands enemy. A lot of 1-star seekers though for sure
Our first hostile encounter involved a bunch of seekers, with a 1 star among them, and a gjall at the same spot. My friend and I spent a lot of time recovering one body, only for the other to die, or recovering someone else's body. We each died about 3 times and were truly worried we wouldn't be able to get any of our stuff back. This happened to us about an hour ago and we're hesitant to go back in at all, lol
Would be sick if they add that after you cleared the ashlands and high north. Getting this early would ruin the exploration aspect when you can fly everywhere
Pro Tip: When you say to yourself, "oh, I've survived pretty long in the mistlands. Let me go in deeper...", well don't. You die. Your biggest enemy at first will be finding infested mines, the crypts of the mistlands. These guys have dark cores which are essential to the crafting machines. Well, as you could guess, try finding these things in the fog-- impossible. Doesn't matter if you have a wisp, these crypts seem extremely rare to find. You spend more time dying trying to get to/find the mine than being inside of it. Overall: 1) Do not venture too deep into mistlands. If you do, you may regret it trying to get your stuff back. 2) Utilize Dvergrs. They will kill stuff besides you (conditionally). 3) Your first mission is to obtain feather cape. 4) Make sure you have stamina food. 100+ hp is minimally acceptable. 5) Do not try and take on more than 1, maybe 2 seekers at a time if you have plains gear. Forget it if it's a soldier. 6) Prophylactic thinking.
I like this tips and tricks video about survival in the Mistlands but God Mode is enabled. I guess that really says something about how difficult the area is.
Don't want to fight the dwarves to steal their sap suckers? Just take a jog through the mist and catch some aggro from the locals, then take them back to the dwarves for an exciting tea party.
Deconstructing ruins is the ONLY sain way to get black marble. You destroy the bottom of the tall pillars and just let it collapse. Wallah, many stacks of marble. Using the pickaxe to get marble is a waste of time IMO. If you get a tick on you, just pull any melee out and swing it. It dies.
A few Mistlands tips. Utilize portals. Carry portal material. Don't ever go wandering around on a continent or islands without a portal back. Lay down portals after you have traveled further than you feel comfortable retraveling for a corpse retrieval or whenever you need to refresh your rested buff. Also learn to use a portal system where you only have one or two portals in your base that you rename to the various map marked portals that you lay down throughout the world with a simple naming system like A, B, C....Map mark deverger camps and roots and once you find a good grouping ship in some black metal and establish a sap farm with portal. Fighting tips: learn to Parry and manage stamina. Save and use bonemass and meads for any 2 star seekers or soilders or extremely difficult fights. Rolling removes ticks. Learn enemy weak spots. Mistalnds isn't overly difficult once you gain the knowledge and exercise patience and good judgement.
Thank you for that tip, along with the rest of the comment section hopefully I can be as prepared as possible. I haven't entered the mistlands yet as I just killed Yagluth, I am a solo player but I don't just wander into new areas without being cautious... made that mistake way back in the beginning with the blackforest. Typically I scout the edges of a new area and test the enemies, that way I can run through safer land or biomes I know I can survive to lose the enemy I aggroed. With that being said, using portals like you say, how likely are they to be attacked in the mistlands? Do you just drop a portal down and not really worry about what's nearby?
@niCadence It can happen if something is nearby. But if nothing is nearby when you leave the area then it kind of freezes in time and never gets attacked (I think). If I am suspicious something may be nearby I sneak crouch before I enter to make sure I get that horizontal line. I've had portals get destroyed but it is pretty rare. I usually leave a series of portals behind me as I travel the world and mark their name on the map. So worst case scenario I take a step back to the previously laid one. Getting materials for portals is cut in half if you only use one master linking portal at home instead of a pair per. And, also remember you can take boat mats through portals which helps in that continuous exploration.
@@brianross9926 Okay, I kind of figured that would be the case, I haven't had a portal destroyed yet but I typically run a small circle around the portal before I leave just o check if anything is within agro range. I only use on master portal and just change the name, I haven't been utilizing portals as much to my own detriment hahaha slow learner with that but I now I have many useful portals, like one I have to two surtling geysers and I just run over and collect the loot since I leveled the ground. I keep hearing that Mistlands is the most difficult expansion to the game, I just started the game 3 weeks ago and because I am a solo player I don't want to be discouraged. Thank you so much! If you have any other tips, I would love to hear them. I have been trying to utilize any tips from players experienced in this game :)
reminder for everyone to do their part in stomping cockroaches. seriously don't want to be fighting the Zerg or in the starship troopers universe with no gunpowder
New tip: The black marble buildings are impervious to damage from the eitr refinery. Simply encase your refinery with black marble, with holes at the top for feeding in flesh and a door in the front for adding sap and gathering the finished product, and you can let it run all you want. Or you could build a room of black marble with the refinery standing in it and simply not enter the room while it's running.
Use earth walls to make your base almost invincible to seekers. Raise the ground with a hoe into a massive box and build your base inside. Seekers can land on top and attack whatever is on your roof, but soldiers won't be able to reach it.
I've really enjoyed this game since the very beginning, but one thing that makes me sad is I have no friends who play it. :( Watching you with friends fighting the seekers made me so want to play with others! Great video, it's straightforward but fun.
My group i played with have all got bored now as we just got to the mistlands because we've found it too hard 😭 just about to fight yagluth tonight then im on to the mistlands solo😱
@@spacextom I played early stages of the game with friends but they "semi completed it as I had to work and most of them didn't. So they pretty much completed all their was before mistlands came out and they haven't played it since. How did Yagluth go?
Oh so there ARE bigger areas of Mistlands... Me and my friend found the mistlands and it has exclusively consisted of VERY tiny islands. Like just jutting rocks and cliffs with water between them and it has been kinda obnoxious to investigate it and I was wondering if the biomes will always be like that, basically waterlogged all over the place. Good that it isn't. We just gotta try and find a better generation..
The biggest issue I'm having with this update is the fog and terrain, although the fog issue did get a bit better with a whisp, I still can barley see anything. I hope they lessen the fog a bit cause it makes it less fun to play like it is currently.
Same. Not being able to see is never a good game mechanic. The fog should just become a lot less opaque for you when you have the firefly thingy equipped.
Totally agree! I think the fog is fine like it is without a wisp. However, it should be much less opaque with one equipped. I forgot to mark my portal location and I legit had to search for 30mins to find it again, even with a wisp. Not being able to see, combined with this terrain gets soooooo annoying
I believe that the devs intended for people to make more use of the wisp torches. You plant them around the mistlands while you path out to your points of interest and eventually you can make a real home there. Once you explore enough you realize that there isn't that much travelable area with all the rock spires around.
I think getting your skills to at least 50-60 would help reduce excess deaths... killing things faster and being able to block seems like the ticket for every other biome. I also wonder where the lox riders at? Heh
Thank you so much for this video! I have been in the Mistlands for about 30 hours now and really just wanted to confirm the things I was doing... The Mines are definitely hit or miss on the cores. Valheim is a heavy grind game tho, but the new Mistlands items are worth it for the housing aspect. Thank you!
It's not the blunt from Frostner, it's the FROST. All physical (pierce/slash/blunt) is gray (resisted). They are immune to spirit, but ELEMENTAL is white. The Mistwalker sword is the eventual upgrade from Frostner for the reason it's stronger frost damage. Magic is strong for this elemental reason too.
Am I hearing eefer right? Took me a minute, but realized it was Eitr. For fun it's pronounced Eye-ter which makes saying Eitr Refiner roll off the tongue! Great list, appreciate you - Actually waited to watch this until after I got through a lot of Mistlands so I didn't spoil everything.
My impression is they turned the game into torture with this update. Terrain, and the mist is one issue, cost for crafting new items and rarity of some of resources is another, and finally, you need black metal to build sap extractors. I just transfer metal between servers, but I wonder if the devs wanted us to actually bring the metal by boat or by foot? Insane.
The armour needs buffed asap, otherwise magic is the meta. I’ve just finished a play through through Mistlands with my friend with all but the last boss to find and defeat. We had a duel, let’s just say he pretty much 2-hit me with a staff lmao. He also miss clicked with the fire staff and completely destroyed the roof of a building. 😂 melee is pretty lacklustre as I have trouble fighting one soldier and he doesn’t even have to be near them!
Mining ancient metal in mistlands is not worth it. Mining it takes too much time and carrying them back even to your base in mistland is too much of a hassle bec of the mist, bad terrain, and the risk of dying. Without the megingjord u can only carry a handful of metal and most of the time u are equipping the wisplight or else youre gonna be blind as a bat in the mist without it. Helpful tip, just mine the iron and copper from swamps and black forests like u always do instead of the ancient metals in mistlands. Mistland will only be your saps, marble, infested mine loots, mist wood, mistland crops farm; which can all be easily transported through tps. Just do all the crafting of mistland equips in your main base bec its safe and feels like home
Wolves do well until you run into one of those flying fart bags, then they all die. Lox does much better only because they are tanks. Lox does a lot of single hit damage, but the seekers can resist it fairly well but also have a much higher attack frequency than the Lox so they will probably lose that fight as you will almost always be outnumbered. The best use of tames is to use a Lox to take aggro for you, it can last long enough for you to do enough damage to the enemies before it goes down. Take food for your Lox with you. Every fight you need to heal it, unless it goes down in the fight, I recommend breeding them in the mistlands.
Nice video; but does the refinery need shelter and does refined eitr damage everything including black marble? Would ballista provide decent defense against seekers?
I'm personally disappointed with Mistlands. Meleeing enemies at different elevations was always a problem Valheim had, and this biome really amplifies it. And since the mist feels claustrophobic and unpleasant to me, along with how easily bases can be destroyed, there's no incentive to develop beautiful and safe structures to protect you from the world. Another probably controversial opinion here: I don't like the dwarves. Even the traders, for that matter. What felt exciting about Valheim to me was, in addition to the exciting sense of discovery, there was the feeling you were all alone: just you vs. the monsters. Sure, there were other run-down structures, but that just hinted at the possibility you were not the first to come through these lands; someone else was possibly once in your shoes. But what happened to them? And will you meet the same fate? With the addition of friendly races, it feels like you spent your life alone in the wilderness only to discover a major city to your north -- it feels like it was all for nothing. And killing a "friendly" group doesn't feel good, it makes me feel like the villain. Finally: the magic. It was more mysterious when a few creatures could wield it, but you as the player had no shot of harnessing something so mysterical. All you could do was use your wit and physical objects you'd crafted and try your best. But with the introduction of magic, it feels like a different game. And magic came so late in the game that it's just jarring. I understand that maybe people would have gotten bored with the meta of new biome -> new metal -> new weapons/armor -> repeat, but it's just the same thing really, except now you're forging all these un-relatable crafting stations. You go from "oh sweet, I discover this new metal that can help me make pots and pans!" to "I need to craft a discombobulator and refine some thingamabobs so I can use the smörgåsbord to make a stick that shoots fire, after I eat magical food!" It's just too different for me.
@@Jade-PG i had a completely empty mistlands a few days ago i ws going to run past it again to look for yag location and my terrain has completely changed, seen the big brain thing floating around and dipped
I love the fact that all of these videos just skip over the fact that: Once you get into mistlands from the plains you will not be having any fun! To craft anything new in this DLC you have to run a dungeon that is not only impossibly hard to find due to not only the terrain but the hard hitting fast assassins that can fly. So if you do manage to survive the mobs chasing you endlessly through terrain that basically drains your stamina 24/7 you have to find a dungeon in the mist THAT DOES NOT GET PARTED. Maybe 5 yards of vision is acquired... No magic before dungeons. No new armor. No anything! I would say that making the crafting tables for mistlands is harder than the boss herself... Such a weird feeling when you get there more annoying than anything
In the video of you fighting the dwarfs you arent taking any damage at all. None. I was watching your health you had 113 and got his several times and it stayed that way. Were you in god mode or something?
Anyone else get triggered when he calls them "d-ver-jer"? Pretty sure it's "dwerger" (,rhymes with burger) but I could be wrong 🤷♂️ would just make sense thinking of viking wording.
I understand your concept but I still lean more towards the Norse pronunciation, think of names like "Bjorn" it's pronounced "byorn" rather than "b-jorn" so using that I'd assume it's pronounced "dwerger" 🤷♂️
@P4nd3m0n1um unfortunately language is a difficult concept when it comes to annunciation. The English language is the most screwed up language in the world; But Dvergr would be correct going off the Scandinavian alphabet
@@Jade-PG but it's been ur last 3 vids. It's like a child took over. Normally I like ur vids and can't recall any vids I have not enjoyed. But u did a fake difficulty vid which I guess could be fun, but why not label it challenge run we me@sed up so a dev comes to save us. Or something.

Clearly you don't understand the difference between graphics and art style. The game is super pretty very often and has some great lighting, but that nuance seems lost on you, I guess.
It is. A lot of reviewers have likened it to Playstation 1, although I've never played on one. But once you get passed the pixel thing, you realize that the game is absolutely beautiful in what it does with lighting. The Mistlands is not a good demo of that, but the meadows or black forest biomes especially are incredible; so much that I often find myself just chilling and looking around. It's real art, squeezed into a tiny (1GB) package. It took a special kind of genius to do that.
I've been confused about elemental protection. IF you have a piece of armor that protects you from frost for instance (ie lox cape) does the frost potion stack with that effect or is it either or ? Also, does even the black marble take damage from the refined Eitr ?
Protection effects don't stack so either lox cape OR frost potion is the same protection, you don't get more protection having both. Nope, eitr does 0 damage to black marble like Slim_Sumo said.
Just recently learned you can destroy the ward with collision damage from a cart, and it won't aggro the dwarves. Then you can pick through their stuff, and they won't care at all.
Few other things that can help:
Polearms: The special 360 attack almost always one shots seeker broods and ticks and if it doesn't it stuns them for a follow up. It also does well against regular seekers. Sledges do pretty well also.
Frostner: Seekers and seeker soldiers are resistant to normal attacks, but take full damage from frost, fire and poison. A fully upgraded Frostner is almost as effective as any one hand Mislands weapon you'll be able to craft later and the slow it applies is huge.
Parrying: If you haven't learned how to do it well before now, it's even more important. The seekers have a strange timing that takes a little getting used to, but a successful parry means you can usually 2 shot them. And it makes the soliders WAY easier to grind down.

You can also cage in Iron Cages or Dverger

Another thing bring loads of ooze bombs they are nice if going into a mine.
its funny that the steam version of Dwarf Fortress came out around the same time as this update lol
Blunt works best. Frostner is your go to for seekers. Also the rook harnesk is best for your chest piece with its resistances.
It's not the blunt from Frostner, it's the FROST. All physical (pierce/slash/blunt) is gray (resisted). They are immune to spirit, but ELEMENTAL is white. The Mistwalker sword is the eventual upgrade from Frostner for the reason it's stronger frost damage. Magic is strong for this elemental reason too.
Blackmetal atgeir, draugur fang, and frostner is all I’ve used in the mist lands so far. Blackmetal atgeir is by far best weapon to use
I cleared a tower before defeating Yag and in the boss chest it gave me 2 eggs.
the new mistland block don't get dmg by refined ethir. You can enclose the refinery in it to protect your base
Up to the mistlands loved the game. Infinity fog killed the game for me. I cant be bothered playing this anymore.
You can build the wisplight torches and use the sword mistwalker
TIP! Don't add a red border to your thumbnail!!
I thought I had watched this movie and nearly skipped it
Am I hearing eefer right? Took me a minute, but realized it was Eitr. For fun it's pronounced Eye-ter which makes saying Eitr Refiner roll off the tongue! Great list, appreciate you - Actually waited to watch this until after I got through a lot of Mistlands so I didn't spoil everything.
My impression is they turned the game into torture with this update. Terrain, and the mist is one issue, cost for crafting new items and rarity of some of resources is another, and finally, you need black metal to build sap extractors. I just transfer metal between servers, but I wonder if the devs wanted us to actually bring the metal by boat or by foot? Insane.
Black marble with stands the sparks of the new eitr refinery
The armour needs buffed asap, otherwise magic is the meta. I’ve just finished a play through through Mistlands with my friend with all but the last boss to find and defeat. We had a duel, let’s just say he pretty much 2-hit me with a staff lmao. He also miss clicked with the fire staff and completely destroyed the roof of a building. 😂 melee is pretty lacklustre as I have trouble fighting one soldier and he doesn’t even have to be near them!
Just had an idea for a new eitr food. Yggdrasil Syrup made from Yggdrasil sap
Do the mistland mushrooms regrow after a while like other foraging items do?
It'd be kind of dumb if they didn't. Also you can plant them like crops... but they only grow in the mistlands.
Mining ancient metal in mistlands is not worth it. Mining it takes too much time and carrying them back even to your base in mistland is too much of a hassle bec of the mist, bad terrain, and the risk of dying. Without the megingjord u can only carry a handful of metal and most of the time u are equipping the wisplight or else youre gonna be blind as a bat in the mist without it. Helpful tip, just mine the iron and copper from swamps and black forests like u always do instead of the ancient metals in mistlands. Mistland will only be your saps, marble, infested mine loots, mist wood, mistland crops farm; which can all be easily transported through tps. Just do all the crafting of mistland equips in your main base bec its safe and feels like home
9:40 Pro tip : Don't go into the Mistlands with a level 10 sword skill, even with a blackmetal sword ...
Nice. Thx for the guide.
has anyone tried taking wolves or lox in with you??...how good would they be against seekers or camps?
Wolves do well until you run into one of those flying fart bags, then they all die. Lox does much better only because they are tanks. Lox does a lot of single hit damage, but the seekers can resist it fairly well but also have a much higher attack frequency than the Lox so they will probably lose that fight as you will almost always be outnumbered. The best use of tames is to use a Lox to take aggro for you, it can last long enough for you to do enough damage to the enemies before it goes down. Take food for your Lox with you. Every fight you need to heal it, unless it goes down in the fight, I recommend breeding them in the mistlands.
@@normanlandstruck3985 Good luck with "breeding them in the mistlands." 🤣
@@riteasrain There is a trick for mass breeding that works here. EZ Half an hour makes an army.
Nice video; but does the refinery need shelter and does refined eitr damage everything including black marble? Would ballista provide decent defense against seekers?
Killing dverger will raid your bases often
I'm personally disappointed with Mistlands. Meleeing enemies at different elevations was always a problem Valheim had, and this biome really amplifies it. And since the mist feels claustrophobic and unpleasant to me, along with how easily bases can be destroyed, there's no incentive to develop beautiful and safe structures to protect you from the world.
Another probably controversial opinion here: I don't like the dwarves. Even the traders, for that matter. What felt exciting about Valheim to me was, in addition to the exciting sense of discovery, there was the feeling you were all alone: just you vs. the monsters. Sure, there were other run-down structures, but that just hinted at the possibility you were not the first to come through these lands; someone else was possibly once in your shoes. But what happened to them? And will you meet the same fate?
With the addition of friendly races, it feels like you spent your life alone in the wilderness only to discover a major city to your north -- it feels like it was all for nothing. And killing a "friendly" group doesn't feel good, it makes me feel like the villain.
Finally: the magic. It was more mysterious when a few creatures could wield it, but you as the player had no shot of harnessing something so mysterical. All you could do was use your wit and physical objects you'd crafted and try your best. But with the introduction of magic, it feels like a different game.
And magic came so late in the game that it's just jarring. I understand that maybe people would have gotten bored with the meta of new biome -> new metal -> new weapons/armor -> repeat, but it's just the same thing really, except now you're forging all these un-relatable crafting stations. You go from "oh sweet, I discover this new metal that can help me make pots and pans!" to "I need to craft a discombobulator and refine some thingamabobs so I can use the smörgåsbord to make a stick that shoots fire, after I eat magical food!" It's just too different for me.
Show him not taking damage...so mistlands looks tough need a group..
Does the gjall event only happen on the plains+ or can my home on the meadows that's far from any of the scary biomes get the air raid siren as well?
only in mistlands however if mist is in sight of yoru base they can drift over
@@Jade-PG for once, I'm glad we decided to stay in the noob zone.
@@Jade-PG so its completely nonsense to build a base in Mistlands... good. Hopefully I didnt
Are the infested caves available on legacy servers
How were you able to build over top of the Vendor Haldor???
I came here to ask the same thing. How are you not the top comment
Yup, I'll skip this biome until an other one is introduced. Seems hard enough but that mist is just annoying.
Valheim Mistland or the U-boat game
good work
so i need to kill yagluth for mistland ? because when i go mistland only got seeker and full of small mountains
need to find anew mistlands with bigger cliffs, one you havent gone near before to generate new stuff
@@Jade-PG i had a completely empty mistlands a few days ago i ws going to run past it again to look for yag location and my terrain has completely changed, seen the big brain thing floating around and dipped
what about frostner?
Hi. I killed Yagluth long time ago (March 2021). So I have to do it again in order to get to the new content?!
no
no just need to get his drops you put away
I love the fact that all of these videos just skip over the fact that: Once you get into mistlands from the plains you will not be having any fun! To craft anything new in this DLC you have to run a dungeon that is not only impossibly hard to find due to not only the terrain but the hard hitting fast assassins that can fly. So if you do manage to survive the mobs chasing you endlessly through terrain that basically drains your stamina 24/7 you have to find a dungeon in the mist THAT DOES NOT GET PARTED. Maybe 5 yards of vision is acquired... No magic before dungeons. No new armor. No anything! I would say that making the crafting tables for mistlands is harder than the boss herself... Such a weird feeling when you get there more annoying than anything
While fighting the Gjall your food build is all wrong. There's way too much invested into health.
In the video of you fighting the dwarfs you arent taking any damage at all. None. I was watching your health you had 113 and got his several times and it stayed that way. Were you in god mode or something?
Gjall is so weak, just bow him down with your draugr bow and needle arrows, idk why your talking about the gjall so much!?
Liked and subbed, just getting back into valheim since its launch on pc helped a lot seeing this
Fenris isn't pronounced fenrir. 2 different names
Mistlands is no fun at all.
Own very base....
Pestal and mortor .... lol u wardsback
Rick on!
The building isn't cheating. If you can build on it, you can deconstruct it.
twas just a joke, maybe lighten up
I'm so tired of valheim godmode B roll footage.
Another tip. Stop cheating lol
Anyone else get triggered when he calls them "d-ver-jer"?
Pretty sure it's "dwerger" (,rhymes with burger) but I could be wrong 🤷♂️ would just make sense thinking of viking wording.
Think Germanic pronunciation.
I understand your concept but I still lean more towards the Norse pronunciation, think of names like "Bjorn" it's pronounced "byorn" rather than "b-jorn" so using that I'd assume it's pronounced "dwerger" 🤷♂️
D-ver-jer would be the correct pronounciation in any scandinavic (norse) language.
Source: swedish.
@P4nd3m0n1um unfortunately language is a difficult concept when it comes to annunciation. The English language is the most screwed up language in the world; But Dvergr would be correct going off the Scandinavian alphabet
Hope it's better than ur difficulty video... with ur t1/starter gear trying to do mistlands. Lost braincells on that vid.
well thats was clearly just a stream for fun maybe lighten up
@@Jade-PG but it's been ur last 3 vids. It's like a child took over. Normally I like ur vids and can't recall any vids I have not enjoyed. But u did a fake difficulty vid which I guess could be fun, but why not label it challenge run we me@sed up so a dev comes to save us. Or something. Like a movie, a big part of enjoying the vid is proper labeling. If I show up to a horror I don't want to see a rom com
@@Jade-PG You keep doing what you feel you need to in order to express yourself. This is your channel and nobody else's way of expression.
This game looks like a creation of early 2000 games, graphics just old looking.
Clearly you don't understand the difference between graphics and art style. The game is super pretty very often and has some great lighting, but that nuance seems lost on you, I guess.
It's just artistic license. I like it a lot.
It's a mix if low and high res entities. Just a style.
It is. A lot of reviewers have likened it to Playstation 1, although I've never played on one. But once you get passed the pixel thing, you realize that the game is absolutely beautiful in what it does with lighting. The Mistlands is not a good demo of that, but the meadows or black forest biomes especially are incredible; so much that I often find myself just chilling and looking around. It's real art, squeezed into a tiny (1GB) package. It took a special kind of genius to do that.
What a terrible take. The game is gorgeous
I've been confused about elemental protection. IF you have a piece of armor that protects you from frost for instance (ie lox cape) does the frost potion stack with that effect or is it either or ? Also, does even the black marble take damage from the refined Eitr ?
Protection effects don't stack so either lox cape OR frost potion is the same protection, you don't get more protection having both.
Nope, eitr does 0 damage to black marble like Slim_Sumo said.
@@dylanforrester2144 ah, well that's one thing good then
Moder can still freeze you if you don't potion up.
