Valheims Ultimate Biome Progression Guide (7 Biomes in 2024)

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

What did I miss!? And don't tell me the Ashlands and Deep North :p

[@TonyTPG]

😂

[@ethansmith8813]

What if they add a biome after the deep north. What do you think it could be?

[@dripman2341]

ashlands in the test branch: 🗿☕

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

@@dripman2341 lets go! So close

[@jaymcdude1291]

The only thing I'd recommend to people. Is when building a portal to get back home with. Build it in a stone structure. Or on a hill NPCs can't climb. That way it doesn't get wrecked by the menacing greydwarf while you chillin at the crib cooking up some gumbo for the next op.

[@johnp9988]

That serpent tip with the harpoon was huge! Thanks Spazzy, I have new goals for tonight’s Valtime session. 🍻

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Happy to help! Nice, go get it tonight!

[@BreadApologist]

Soon as you can make a portal, always, always keep materials in your inventory to set up another. Being a stargate fan, I always opted to name the dedicated portal "DHD" (Dial Home Device). Typically, if going to a new biome via ship, id set up a new portal at base, its name doesnt really matter, Gate1 for example. Then sail to new biome with gear to make 2 portals. 1 being the 2nd "Gate1" portal. The other set being for a 2nd DHD portal. This can be invaluable in multiplayer as if anyone dies, one party member can use the mats to plop down second DHD as close as possible to death site of other player (if safe of course). Thus allowing said player to retrieve gear asap, saving loads of time and reducing danger of getting to the site from the permant biome portal in the area. Always, always keep DHD set with you.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Excellent tip. I absolutely agree. BTW. love your name "BreadApologist" hahaha

[@kirstenwyatt9675]

I have one portal at base that has no tag for just this purpose

[@Borkomora]

in nearly a thousand hours i've never once made bronze arrows, and never will lmao

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

you know what. i don't think I have either

[@lukewarmape603]

Which arrows do you guys recommend? Im quite new and only really use flint

[@yasaitheshobji]

​@@lukewarmape603 I used wood and fire arrows till swamp. Then switched to obsidian arrow in the mountains and currently using needle arrows.

[@michaelcolman7848]

Bro I came here looking for a some Valheim gameplay to see if I wanted to start playing again. This video guide is so comprehensive its ridiculous. Thankyou!

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

glad you enjoyed it! Its only missing the Ashlands at the moment!

[@soulmare333]

Ive played this game for many many MANY hours (only since it's release on xbox i will say). This video is absolutely amazing and well put together. The length and your pacing, descriptions, and tone on top of the video not being over edited makes this an absolute joy to listen to and watch while trying to see if there's anything new I haven't learned yet. Well done doesn't even begin to describe how good a job you've done.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Such high praise! thank you so much. It means a lot!

[@meidozwz5911]

As a valheim veteran this is a great guide! the pop noise when you drop the items is a bit too loud compared to the rest of the video making it a bit too unpleasant but save from that, it's good

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Thank you for the kind words! I also always appreciate the feedback. i've heard the comment on the pop noise in the past as well. I'll definitely tone it down going forward. Thanks!

[@t7_br0k3n3]

I started playing this game like 4 days ago and I’m already 15 hours in and haven’t left black forest yet because I’ve been upgrading my base for like 5 hours, and thinking I’m only at the beginning is crazy

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

its addicting isn't it!? Enjoy the rid!

[@tatankawolf]

Another tip with birch tree, if you able to fell one with beech tree using stone axe, can roll two fallen log against each other to break them down for early fine wood.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

yes good tip! I've done that myself

[@roberttitan4497]

For those of you who are playing no map. If you see two leviathans close to one another. The merchant is on an island just beyond their location.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

whaat? i dont know if there is any truth to that

[@roberttitan4497]

@@SpazzyjonesGaming , it might be a coincidence. however it has happened to me three times. Once in a regular game, that clued me off to try and look for him in my HC game. Then after I died, I deleted that world and started another HC char and world. Saw it again. With the same results. However that could still be just a coincidence. Due to the fact that he has to spawn within 1500m from the start. Also the games were different seed's. Edit** great videos BTW.

[@chtyldubreux5950]

9:05 There also is the burial chamber shaped like a round hill, with an entrance at one of the sides.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Ah i gotcha. So I think that makes three types of entrances?

[@stephenfraser280]

Awesome video, so much great info in here. Never thought to swap out armor pieces. I just started Mistlands so will try out the Root Harnesk ASAP as thos eSeekers are putting on quite a hurting.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Appreciate you! I'm glad you were able to learn something from the vid! The root harnesk is OP.

[@naturalmindy]

I"ve been playing on hard since the beginning and now I'm about to reach the ice biome. One thing to keep note if you are playing on hard: the poison damage you get from swamp blobs and leech is LETHAL, one hit and you are gone so always bring some poison resistance potions

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

100% poison meads are crucial in the swamp

[@treywalker249]

I was heading back to a swamp after my game crashed, and I found Haldor along the way, and Hildor who I have never seen. Was honestly a fun thing to find.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

it does feel great to find them!

[@dirsigler]

Sharpening stone can also be crafted at the Stonecutter. Just build a Stonecutter in your base and then access it, there you can built the Sharpening Stone.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

yeah my bad. Not sure how I overlooked that in the video

[@Wasyashock]

removing terrain around a surtling spawner will make them spawn in water and die instantly

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Yes. Thats a good strategy

[@squishyushi]

Exactly the video I was looking for, thank you, this shall help me progress to Ashlands

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Glad I could help!

[@WolfHreda]

24:55 when you said "feel free to pause the video here," my phone took that as its cue to randomly close KZbin. 🤣

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

dammit youtube!

[@Wasyashock]

In my experience fuling shamans are the ones that should be picked out with a bow first, they give a big advantage to other fulings with shield auras (their fireballs can be parried though, which makes taking them out with melee a lot easier). 0-star fuling berserkers can be parried with silver shield and better and aren't that big of a problem, although they should be fought last. They're quite slow overall because of them regularly propping their club up and yelling, so getting rid of normal fulings first while dodging the bersekers isn't much of a problem. 1-star berserkers in my experience are a much greater threat, only their 3 hit combo can be parried with blackmetal shield, and they do a ton of damage, so at first I recommend not risking it and taking them out with a bow until you're comfortable with fighting the berserkers. Haven't met 2-star berserkers, though I imagine rolling is the only option to avoid damage. Also I think the blackmetal sword is better at fighting fulings than Frostner because it staggers 0-star fulings in 1 hit, which is huge, even compared to the slowing effect of Frostner

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Agreed on taking out the shamans with the bow. I think that makes a lot of sense Berserkers are also brutal! very dangerous

[@nellie2m]

12:00 "equal to two lengths of your mini map" DEPENDS on how zoomed in your mini map is, you can change this with the . and , keys.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

FACTS! You know what Nellie, I learned about the ability to zoom in/out in your mini map like two weeks ago. I kid you not! I'm so embarrassed haha

[@Ruhrich92]

Ngl, this is one of those things that I always think "thats gotta be in the game, I gotta look that up later" but never do. I JUST NOW learned the keybinds. Turns out I never looked it up later, it looked me up, and for that-I thank you 😂😂

[@adamnovotny1964]

Can be cut down only with bronze axe and better. Troll: am i joke to you.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

hahah facts

[@tigeruppercut2000]

Ohhhhh I skipped the Mountains biome and went to the plains instead... which now explains why it was such an unbelievably difficult biome

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

hahah I can see how that can happen. I mean, theres nothing clearly telling you to go to the mountains

[@tigeruppercut2000]

@@SpazzyjonesGaming I guess the order in which you have to kill the bosses? 😜 But we were just playing casually and not really paying attention. Thanks for this great video it explains a lot and will definitely make my play-through of the game way more enjoyable 👍

its huge! and a new biome was just added thats not included in this video. Plus! its still early access. More to come

[@mocronik]

You make it look easy dragging a serpent to shore with the harpoon which is when you have mistlands food like you had: honey glazed chicken, salad and bread from the plains. When I'm really life it's harder with the food normally available at that point you showed it.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

agreed. definitely harder with lower tier foods

[@dcloprat5926]

Thanks for this, now i can face the biomes

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Anytime! Any question you have about any of the biomes can surely be answered here!

[@noel123n4]

42:06 sharpening stone is important from fuling village? I do think it is important to make grinding wheel, but you can make it with stonecutter tho, and make the grinding wheel way before mountain biome Or is it a new thing?

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

yeah i was a doofus when recording this and completely forgot you could craft one at the stonecutter

[@aleksandarkarevski2218]

I heard you mentioned mana when talking in the Mistlands section, do you also play Dota?

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Nope, never played Dota. mana is in a lot of games though

[@jocecs]

This video helped a lot, thanks! I sadly can't seem to find Haldor😞

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

I'm glad it helped ! I don't have any super great help with haldor aside from hop into a shop and start sailing along the coast in search of black forest! Hopefully you should see his icon pop up on your map. You don't have to go too far from your starting point fortunately. If you really want there is a site where you can input your seed number and it will show you exactly where haldor spawns

[@Messerschmitt_BF_109G_10]

It's kite-in

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Yes I have learned

[@cassidybailey3629]

38:22 Your movement speed with fenris armor should actually be about 21% faster than with wolf armor. Speed + 9% is not equal to [Speed - 10%] + 19%.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Yes you're right. My mistake!

[@yanste3349]

Ashlands are hereee 🎉

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Oh yaaa. Played all day yesterday!

[@rustygoddard]

Useful and worthwhile tips indeed. I have used trolls for mining and more recently to knock town those hardwood trees for early access to finewood.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Glad you enjoyed. Trolls are super helpful for gaining access to many resources early. As long as you have mastered the art of dodging! :p

[@TheFarSeeingChipmunk]

Weird choice for valheim to make the padded armor iron and not black metal? Is it not? It also has almost the same protection as the wolf I think… and isn’t the Silver Sword technically better than the black metal sword?

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

I tell ya it was a SHOCK to me the first time I get there and realized I had to go back to the swamp and get more Iron. Silver sword is hurt by the fact that a lot of creatures are weak to spirit damage. But other than that you're right

[@darkgravystains]

Flint axe, don't even build the stone axe.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

absolute facts. I agree

[@Generalonell]

Is using the stonecutter for the grinding wheel new then? Or does he just not know

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

No I'm just silly and took forever to realize you could craft one hahaah
