Have YOU Mastered Valheim Raids? (Everything You Need to Know)

[@joelkorhonen3170]

Wolf raid correction: it requires being in mountain or plains biome and can happen both outside and inside the base structure radius.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Great correction. Pinned! Thank you

[@uptightcarp0368]

Also, I had an experience where it spawned about 35 wolves. I was in a friend’s world so I don’t know if that changes anything.

[@johnp9988]

Nice information and presentation! Today I learned, there’s server settings for raid events!! Thanks for sharing! 🍻

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Heyyy, glad you learned something new John!

[@rustygoddard]

Good info. Some new things I didn't know. Thank you for sharing.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

What did I miss?! Did I get anything wrong?? let me know below

[@ikizlergemini28_3]

Star correction: Besides the Hildir events, the Gjall events can also spawn starred Ticks

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Good catch. i didn't realize that. I think I've only ever been subject to one Gjall event. Thank goodness!

[@destroyingangel9838]

Don't fear the raids, just build to mitigate the damage, mote and stone walls or earthen walls works very well. Raids brings mats to your doorsteps, black metal, totems, wolf meat and skins, love being hunted, wolf kababs yum. Hate the Bat raid, destroyed crops fighting outside my building, destroyed stuff fighting inside my building, even glassing all my windows didn't help they just fly down the chimney. Lol

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Smart man. The proper preparation can overcome any raid

[@kiaoszenthos]

alot of people on my server play solo so i enabled player based raids so they dont get smashed by something higher tier than them.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

yeah thats smart. I think it was wise that they added this setting to the game. It enables a better experience for different players at different stages of progression

[@Wasyashock]

Actually super informative video, lots of things I didn't know!

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Glad you learned something new!

[@HavocParadox]

you have been hunted... in hardcore mode has got to be the most anxiety thing to happen..

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Its so freaking terrifying! I'm with you

[@chtyldubreux5950]

gotta be quick and build a workbench and raise the ground underneath you or find another quick solution

[@HavocParadox]

Yeah jumped on a rock and hoped for the best lol@@chtyldubreux5950

[@jonathanvaughan8257]

Disabled raids. Dumbest feature in the whole game.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

yeah its not everyones favorite

[@Mad5cout]

Step 1: cast Wild Staff vines. Step 2: stand in vines until everything is dead. For fliers: If fliers, use staff of embers (bats)/fracturing (everything else) to blow and burn everything.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

the staff of the wilds is OP

[@Mad5cout]

Not sure when this was added but I have experienced an Ashland raid event. Like the wolves, this one occured when away from base structures. It created three charred spawning stones and droped in a random assortment of charred to fight. This occurred on a MP server with no mods. I have yet to experience it solo. It also occurred very soon after landfall, so no boss fight was completed. Perhaps, the trigger is after you destroy your first charred spawner or clear your first putrid hole as those were the only two things we had completed up to that point.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

the way raids work is after you defeat a boss, the creatures associated with the boss of the next biome starts raiding you so now after the ashlands update once the queen is defeated you can start getting ashlands related raids. I wasn't aware they were like the wolf raid though. I thought the wolf raid was the only one of that variety

[@hot_dog_141]

for some reason i havent gotten raided in over 75 in game days

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

thats definitely possible. Basically if you don't meet the conditions when the event timer hits, it skips the event. If you're not spending a lot of time at your base, you'll likely avoid them a lot

[@Drby_]

Great and helpful video dude. I’m doing a hardcore no map no portals play through and I’m glad to know the trolls don’t raid me yet. I have some more time to build walls lol

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Glad you enjoyed it! I've been doing the same playthrough! I am very afraid to fight the Elder and unlease the Trolls haha

[@benboss1056]

I once had a Foul Smell From The Swamp show up while I was in the mountains spawning off of just campfires and an insane roll lmao

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

oh man that sucks so bad hahaha

[@catscratch5359]

i think the your being hunted is the most deadly raid

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Definitely. That raid has caught me many times

[@SairasSiika]

”They were bros man” lmao

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Such a difficult raid!

[@Delta_Tesseract]

I'm on Xbox, patiently awaiting Ashlands Update. I wonder if i tweak the World Modifier Settings once, but set them all back to normal afterwards, will that negatively impact my vanilla playthrough? Do these modifiers change the background metadata used for developer analytics? Surely IronGate collect metadata from each and every user. Right?

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

I don't think it will negatively impact your playthrough. I can't say what data Iron Gate are capturing but I think its fair to speculate they are capturing some

[@christophermcclure9392]

Question: What happens if you only kill Modor? I have a no boss world to see how far I can get and for relaxing exploration. Modor is a hard stop on tech. If I kill her, will I only get the Fuling raids or will others unlock? I want to ruin the vibes as little as possible and don't want to bring tears from other worlds

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Good question! my best gues sis the unlocking/locking of the raids is still tied to the boss kills. So if you do kill Moder without killing any of the other bosses I'd guess you would unlock Moder's army but not Bonemass's army as an example

[@christophermcclure9392]

@@SpazzyjonesGaming That's what I'm hoping. Guess I'll have to give it a go. I'll try to post if anything weird happens : )

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

ya im curious. Do let me know! @@christophermcclure9392

[@xsynxsfantasyx4536]

@@christophermcclure9392 kind of curious to what’s going on with that

[@christophermcclure9392]

Quick update on this! I've killed Modor, but no other bosses. Eikthyr's army just attacked! I'll update again if I see another raid

[@Slayer44556]

On the swamp idk when but they remove the blob great video dude !!!!

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

What do you mean removed the blob? Glad you enjoyed the video though man

[@Slayer44556]

@@SpazzyjonesGaming on the swamp raids slime would also attack you along side skeletons and draugrs.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

ooh I gotcha. So i think the split it up. Now there are two swamp raids. 1 with blobs/oozers and another with draugrs/skellys@@Slayer44556

[@Slayer44556]

@@SpazzyjonesGaming most likely. It was a bit hard fighting Oze with copper weapons especially when you just defeated the elder

[@NickolasSoesbergen]

I actually didn’t know about the hilders raids! I’ve been fortunate enough to not encounter the fuljing raid or seeker raid yet and beaten all the bossses! Also if you build a base on an island and cover every area nothing will spawn! The exclamation point will be there but nothing will spawn!

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Oh man, the hildir raids are the worst! Definitely the most difficult. I didn't realize that about the island, good tip!

[@NickolasSoesbergen]

Yep when I build in the plains I try to find an island to build on! Also I try to find a small island mistlands to grow crops on so the bad guys can’t attack them!

[@NickolasSoesbergen]

But its not easy to find a good island lol

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

no i don't imagine@@NickolasSoesbergen

[@chtyldubreux5950]

The surtling raid does not need bonemass to be killed, ive noticed in my server.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

It depends on your raid settings. If it's world progress it does. If it's player progress it doesn't

[@PierreLucSex]

Yay !

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Have you been waiting for this one Pierre!?
