Any teamwork driven CMDRs in Valheim?

Great, I made it back in a raft with quite some pains, ordered some stuff back home, chopped a tree and troll spawned with greylings right next to my home. It didn't went well and I ragequit.
Cos I didnt set home as new spawn. Guess where I respawned...
Ouch. :(

Not sure if this helps or not but at the iron/silver age trolls are just a minor inconvenience.
 
Sorry bud, them f*ckin trolls.

Give it some time, your rage will focus into troll killing and fort building fuel.

I too offer support if you want it. Skills around 30 for the ones that matter, rocking the troll skin suit still, bronze bits all over though.
 
The only thing with co-op is that the trolls...and other monsters... all scale up in difficulty and get harder. Having played mostly co-op with 3 to 6 players, it's almost a holiday going back to solo :D

If you have a decent team of mates though, it's way more fun, loads of laughs as well as being a joint effort rebuilding and stocking the base. Having spent more hours in Valheim than my mates who regularly play, I'm kinda handy for building the gear they can't...but we all have different skill sets...

I get bored too quickly building a decent base on my own so most of my efforts are barely better than a shack with a fence, all cluttered with stuff I couldn't be bothered stacking. One of my mates who loves designing and building stuff does most of that whilst I supply all the recipes, weapons and gear, get the various wood types, forge advanced metals plus build the forges, smelters and the like...and build the bits I'm good at like levelling the ground and building the perimeter fences etc.

The others get some benefit since once they use the advanced stuff I can craft, they also gain the skills to craft and use them in their own solo games. We all get the benefit of having very nice forts in our solo games that we didn't have to build on our own :)

I'm having a bit of a break - killed several times in my first Sunken Crypt.Thought I just needed to finish off one more Draugr so went back again then realised it was probably one of those spawn points - so now my tombstone is right next to where they're spawning. Oops. Don't fancy having to mine / build another complete set of armour just in case I end up dying again in 30 seconds ...

I think I'm probably going to cheat and God Mode myself out of there and go back more cautiously. A lot tougher than Burial Chambers 🤔

That looks decently defensible.
I cheesed it with another of my characters. Cleared enemies from home. Plopped a portal at the location of the other, left the boat there. Shuffled over with the unlucky character to the tombstone, recovered gear and made back to base.
Died on the foloowing day in the swamp. Portal is near though. It comes down to alway forgetting to plop a potion or food. And when I do it's too late because of the long time it takes effect.
 
And died again. In 50 hours playtime I haven't died as much as in the swamp.
Your not alone there. It's a pretty harsh biome due to constantly being wet, the only counter for which is rested bonus.
Poison resist potion is a must as well and a 100+HP with 5-7 stamina bar is very helpful for survival. Even with all that and wolf armour I still die :(. My friend often laughs at me as I am a leech, skellie, draugr, blob magnet or so it often seems.

I play some Valheim lately, worst death was dying in the mountains, and respawning in a small hut we built there ... with a nice warm fire. And no way to get away, freeze to death and back to the hut. A friend brought us some warming mead.

You can maybe build campfires along the way.
 
only when you have access to stones and wood ... we could probably have destroyed the camp we were in with our bare hands to get the materials

We just never sleep in the mountains anymore.
I won't ask why you went bare-handed into the mountains. OK, I lied: Why did the others banish you?
 
Been messing around in Valheim with a couple of mates...as much I despise survival games as a whole, Valheim has taken all the completely rubbish stuff out and kept all the good bits. A very, very good game...even better that you can set a private server up for co-op with yer mates.
So this is a good game, huh?

I have a number of camps on the edge of the freezing zone in the mountains. The mountains are the only place to source silver and it has both wolves and drakes which are useful resources. Wolves and drakes just have a poor disposition towards viking is the only issue :)
