Day 114 Abomination baiting and Iron Pickaxe

After watching the Abomination v Troll fight I tried to get an Abomination to chase me towards a Troll but it gave up so I killed the Troll and loads of Leeches and Skeletons to load up on mats. Back at base I upgraded my Iron Armour and crafted an Iron Pickaxe as preparation for a visit to the Mountains.







Day 113 Greenshot

I downloaded Greenshot to save my screenshots directly to jpeg and save converting from PNG which are too large. Celebrated with some gardening.



Day 111 and 112 Forge Upgrade, Bonemass Location

I upgraded my Forge and upgraded my Iron Mace before another trip to the crypt where I discovered Bonemass location (which I knew anyway).

Day 110 Crafting, Ground Shakes and Jack-o-Turnip

Spent a day crafting until the Ground Shook. I was pleased my moat held the 2 Trolls out but I could only kill 1 in the time.

 Celebrated by crafting my first Jack-o-Turnip.

  Banded Shield

  Iron Helmet

  The Ground Shakes

 

Troll Hide Cape


 
Jack-o-Turnip

 

 

 

 

 

Day 109 More Iron Scraps

Another trip to the Crypt.




Day 106 to 108 Iron Armour

I realised after watching some youtube videos that for the WASD keys I only ever use W! Might explain my crap combat. Tried using A and D to do some sniping, needs some work. I worked through a new crypt to get enough Iron Scraps to craft a set of Iron Armour which upped my Armour level to 41.








Day 105 Who would win a fight between an Abomination and a Troll?

Got a ringside seat at an Inter biome war. The Abomination won by cheating, recruiting a couple of Draugrs to help.

I finished the Trolls work and took the Abomination out.

Day 104 Draugr Elite

Went back to the place of my death and found I had been fighting a Draugr Elite and hadn't realised. Got my revenge. A quick review of my skills after the 2 deaths, clubs down from 36 to 31, ouch.


Day 102 & 103 Sneaking through the Swamp

When I died I had a full pack so decided to risk a naked sneak to recover my stuff. Nearly worked first time but I forgot i had a healing potion and couldn't recovery all my gear. The confusion got me killed again. So back for another sneak without the healing potion and success!

Sneak 1 Died

 

 Sneak 2 hiding from a Blob

Worth it in the end.



Day 101 Sunken Crypts

First trip down the Crypt, I was very brave stupid. I skipped Bronze Armour hoping I can grab enough Iron Scraps to quickly get Iron Armour. I didn't see 2 archers when I broke through a room with a melee guy and they got me. Should have brought Stagbreaker!

 

 

Day 100 Rarest Valheim Drop?

I recovered some of my stuff from chests including my Rancid Remains Trophy which I read somewhere might be the rarest drop in Valheim.


 

 

Introduction

I am crap at Valheim but enjoy it and want to finally get a full run through.  I created a character that reflected my abilities in Valheim ...
