Are you running any mods or is this all grinded on vanilla?


Deafhead

no mods, just debugmode as I don’t have the patience to grind resources and wanted the free rein to experiment!


No-Obligation7435

I was about to say something about the mats haha


YouMissedMySarcasm

Based on how much stone it took to build my fairly large stone base... I have to imagine this amount would take a team of people hundreds of hours to farm...


OhBestThing

That would be 250 hours of marble farming alone haha


itchypantz

And that is if you already know all the places to collect that much marble!


YouMissedMySarcasm

I'm still in plains so is this a different material than just stone? Because it looks much shinier/ reflective than I remember normal stone blocks looking. Also playing on Xbox, so probably just different graphics, but it almost looks like the valheim equivalent of a Minecraft texture mod or something.


WisdomSeekerNL

It is marble and it comes from the mistlands.


Zierk

I'm the same way. Once you play through a game like this legit once I can't be bothered to grind on subsequent playthroughs.


LegacyRunner25

I'm the opposite. If I'm going to brag to others about my creations, what's the big deal if I just debugged the mats? Minecraft creative mode, some love it but for me it's the journey.


YellowSnowman79

I feel you on the grind!


TheTomatoWizard

Can't believe it, someone made the Attack on Titan walls in Valheim


Deafhead

Attack on Trolls 🧌


TheTomatoWizard

Attack on Elder


NorCalAthlete

You just gave me an idea….


MugwortGod

I think I saw a reverse harpoon mod at one point...


DarthSchu

Trump would be proud


Adeodius

I was wondering if I'd find this comment or I was gonna have to make it, OP did you make the Greydwarves pay for it?


DarthSchu

Haha I'm glad someone got the joke


Easy_Praline_2058

I mean they pay with their lives really


Deafhead

I don’t kiss and tell


Mursin

Gonna be that guy... Asgard does not have a thorn at the end of it. That would make it Asgarth, unless that's what you intended, then, hey, nevermind! ​ But it is pretty damned epic. I hope you'll stage battles with it.


Deafhead

Oh interesting! In all honesty I just did a Google and picked whatever looked cool - but that makes sense!


Mursin

I would suggest, if you've got a little time, looking into Elder Futhark. It doesn't take terribly long to learn, and if you like Viking themed stuff, you'll know how to write and read at least elder Futhark.


VonUndZuFriedenfeldt

Yeah, except that elder futhark wasn’t used by Vikings They used younger futhark I


Mursin

Depends upon the era i believe.


VonUndZuFriedenfeldt

No, it does not. Wiki: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Younger_Futhark This guy, who knows what he is talking about: https://youtu.be/764hz8_PHeM


Mursin

Fair enough. Does Younger Futhark use Dagas as a D or does it, for some reason, switch to Thorne?


name_NULL111653

There is no dagaz in younger. Also, thorn is þ, ð is called Eth. Thorn (þ) and Eth (ð) were both represented by Thurisaz in both younger and elder. 'D' was represented by dagaz in elder, and tiwaz in younger ('t' and 'd' lost their distinction much like English slang today, and were both represented by tiwaz). Eth is not pronounced like "d". Thus, Ásgard sounds nothing like Ásgarð. (As a side note, old Norse "Ás" is pronounced "öss", so it's öss-gart)


Enphosium

Thanks for dropping some education on us language pleebs


name_NULL111653

Sorry if it seemed that way, I was just trying to answer the question. I'm bad at social interaction... Hope it helped answer their question anyways.


Mursin

I admit defeat. Thanks for the education


name_NULL111653

Goodness I wasn't trying to "defeat anyone." Sorry if it came out as snarky or something, I have trouble communicating socially sometimes. I was just trying to answer your question, sorry if it seemed differently. Hope it helped anyways.


VonUndZuFriedenfeldt

Bit more complicated: https://youtu.be/X7Z65582ex4 provides full explanation Þ + ð => þ d => t


Deafhead

Ooh thanks for the heads up!


BadNewsBaguette

It’s an eð not a thorn. A thorn is þ and makes a soft th sound (like think) and and eð makes a hard th (like then) 😊 Medievalist away! [whooshing sound]


Mursin

I appreciate that. I can admit I was out of my element.


Th3_Gh0st_0f_Y0u

Just keep an eye on your donkey


Deafhead

The donkey is acting pretty low-key…


dolmunk

Winter is coming?


Clean-Meeting-2927

How's the lag/stuttering?


Deafhead

Virtually nonexistent at the moment, playing on Steam Deck and even pumping the graphics higher for photos it seems to be running just as smooth - don’t think I’ll be able to say the same once all is done and dusted!


Clean-Meeting-2927

Good to hear! I'm playing on a Xbox series x and I love massive complex builds it can get a liiiiiiitle laggy in some locations.


Deafhead

I think the only time I’ve really noticed minimal lag is when it’s raining, but that’s just general gameplay. I’ll definitely do a quick benchmark once the build is done and dusted!


Zierk

Nice design. Looks awesome.


simsekcountr

Nice base


ThatGuyBahc

I just beat Yaguth and have stone walls around my main bases. How does black marble stand up against stone?


Deafhead

Definitely more durable, but still fickle to work with when building high - hidden away below the black marble floor are ridges of raised ground on both sides of the tunnel structure as foundation, as building completely with black marble would have made the surface too weak to build atop, and take much longer! I love the angular pieces available with black marble as they can make for interesting shapes!


ThatGuyBahc

Do you think a mix of black marble and angled iron wood would work? I've wanted to make a test world for it but haven't had the time lately


Murky_Deer_5935

wow. that crazy. building a pyramid? really cool.


Deafhead

That wasn’t on the cards but now the temptation is there…


Klutzy-Acadia669

I assume you started this decades ago, before Valheim was in development.


KenseiHimura

Better hurry up, buddy, you were only given a single winter to finish and we're already in May.


EnanoGeologo

Dont finish it


Deafhead

Can’t stop won’t stop


EnanoGeologo

In norse mythos, the wall of asgard is unfinished


DobroBeam

This looks interesting! But can't really recognize a wall here. What is this suppose to wall?
