a few notes here : the askvin can lay leggs. the askvin exists as a 2 star that is tameable. like wolf and boars. if you find and tame a 2 star it WILL lay 2 star eggs (50% chance if only 1 askvin has stars same as other tames) these eggs will hatch into 2 star askvins. these have 2400 health. TEN TIMES the health of a 2 star wolf. yes you read that number correctly. so its not even close. a seeker soldier has 1500 health without stars. so this thing can and will beat any other enemy it fights at 2 stars in a 1vs1 case if the other enemy doesnt have stars. it would not win vs some of the hildir raid enemies as they have stars themselfs and the minibosses are tanks. as for the spike defenses. no sane player used dvergr spikes to begin with because of IRON requirement. the new spikes dont use any metal which makes them even better. not sure thier dmg isnt bugged tough. it seems... exessively strong for how cheap they are to build. now remember trolls are weak to pierce dmg which these deals to the troll took some serious bonus dmg there to begin with. they are very good at killing weaklings tough. the test he did here where some of them got stuck in a corner is a bet skewed as the dmg zones of the corner spikes overlap which increases the dmg by multiple times. they wont kill this fast on regular flat wall. perfect for greydwarfs and the like tough. they are oneshot. and ashwood is a plentyful resource that beeing said it IS a somewhat limited resource as you cannot plant these trees and ashlands landmass is much smaller than any other biome in the gameworld. as for the builders who wanna mess around on the testserver there is a new recent bug : ironwoodbeams and flamemetal beams RESET each others stability. this means : INFINITE build height and distance. yes that a bug. devs where informed already. so dont get too used or exited about it. but enjoy it while you can ^^
What materials do they take? Dvergr stakes could be the best thing since sliced bread and I wouldnt know because I could never afford to burn all that iron for such a niche defense
Battering ram seems to be amazing for farming stone and other stone like nodes such as copper. If you can hit it head on it will blat giant chunks with ease. Awesome for making tunnels through the stone of mistlands rocks.
sorry to burst your bubble but... the trollstav does this... EVEN BETTER. the meteor impact will tear apart nodes and rocks. the ram is decent but it isnt really faster than a well developed pickaxe skill sadly due to it beeing very slow to fire again. that beeing said this is fairly useless for silver and terrian thats hard to move around in like mistlands rocks. for silver its useless because silver is only really used in gear and youre long done with that gear when you get it. of course its useless where it would have mattered : FARMING IRON.... its neat for copper and marble tough. but so is trollstav. you havent lived if you havent meteor mined a copper node. the impact area of dmg is nearly the entire node.
asksvin looks good on paper but the no star variant is kinda useless as a mount in their native biome. 1* isnt much better in practice tho it has 2x health. 2* is the only viable option unless you're ignoring everything and just going from A to B.
iv skewered myself many a times on these new spikes near my base the defense was not worth the skill loss plus if u break them with hammer, u dont get the mats back.
Why do you have the screen space wasting black bars, at the top and bottom of your video? That way I have black bars at all sides of the video, with my UWQHD monitor. I can understand that some prefer the wider aspect ratio for artistic reasons, but that is no reason to have those black bars hard coded into the video. On narrower aspect ratio monitors, they will be there from scaling anyways, without imposing all around black bars on users of wider aspect ratio monitors.
Hey, I really like your music choice for your videos, but if I may I'd like to suggest a potential OST for your building videos, it's the Made in Abyss OST and one example track I'd recommend is titled Made in Abyss. It's a very mystical, adventerous and sometimes dark show with a very fitting OST, and I myself am just a really big fan of Kevin Penkins work, the composer of the OST. Anyway hope you give it a listen!
For a moment I thought you were going to launch that troll with the catapult. That would be trippy! And one step away from cow launches. Or even.. dropbears!
Do you think maybe that stake damage is a bug? I can't believe they would intend for them to do that much damage. Although I guess for the area they're designed for maybe not.

I was not expecting the stakes to be so powerful. Thanks for the video!

@@stevebreedlove9760literally just ashwood, and nothing else

I found this out yesterday too, super nice!

You can bore tunnels though the mist lands rocks, which is quite fun
my first nightmare in Valheim that made me scare AF was this root monster spawn underground..

A healthbar hadn't hurt.
For a moment I thought you were going to launch that troll with the catapult.
That would be trippy!
And one step away from cow launches. Or even.. dropbears!
I did manage to launch a lox with it
I don't know, i had 4 stake walls placed next to each other and 1 morgan wrecked them all and still had plenty life left.
This thing is great for cutting out harbors. Discovered this tonight.
Do you think maybe that stake damage is a bug? I can't believe they would intend for them to do that much damage. Although I guess for the area they're designed for maybe not.
I don’t know honestly, but it don’t mind because the stakes still die pretty fast. So during a raid you have to keep repairing and rebuilding them.
still pack of wolves and raised ground walls are best defence
need to do test a lox vs askvin (battle and race) 😂
Great video, how good are the new ballista ammo?
Damm I knew I forgot something!
There are also 2 different catapult amno, explosives and greystone. Would be cool to compare the 2 against both structures and enemies.
Amazing! This was such great info. Ty!
one star asksvin are a little tougher
ASKSVIN STRONGER THAN A GOLEM? OH NO
No star too. Their health goes 800-1600-2400 and damage goes 75-112-150 depending on star level
Навіть шкода того троля, стоїть собі, хмаринки розглядає, а по ньому то тараном, то катапультою працюють. :)
Is Valheim lowkey becoming a pvp game
No grinding weirdo. Touch grass
No why do you think so?
