To make things worse, they are fast, and even worse, they are flying and have aerial attack. fast attacks + fast recovery from stagger and you will take hits. That`s especially so when you have a bunch of seekers. fights stop being fun and challenging and start being frustration festivals.īugs have an attack pattern ensuring that if you encounter more than one -you re pretty much done for if your bone mass on CD. It will be usually in water(where you can`t fight but mobs can and will) or you fall down in crevice (with a high chance that you can`t jump out fast enough due to stamina) or you just fall down and loose two thirds of hp(bonus points for aggroing more bugs)Īdd to this extremely bad vertical fighting mechanics in Valheim. Mistlands offer you a limited vision and terrain so uneven, that most of the time you have a "democratic" choice of facetank or kite with high probability to fall down. Even swamp generate dry big spots often enough. And all biomes are flat or have flat enough and large enough surface to effectively kite or trade blows. When you enter new biome one of key means to survival is you footwork. What makes Mistlands a good-looking pile of bad game design is overall composition, If you only comparing monster power it may be so. There are bugs/flaws in the game, which I am sure the devs are going to fix (sloped combat being the most obvious), but after 500+ hours of gameplay I still think this is one of the greatest game ever produced.Īnd I personally very much like the Starship troopers/Alien theme :) We became so good at fighting in old biomes, that we are all now in shock, when we get our ass kicked again :) I think that one year waiting for the update is the cause for all the hate I see. You can see it on the map which areas that are clear and explore them first. It is the same as Soldier in the Mistlands.Īlso the mist moves. It's the same as entering the Mountains fresh from the Swamp, if you just run around like an idiot, you'll get totally wrecked by wolves (same as seekers). When you are in a dense fog, just listen to the sounds. If there is a 2 star seeker, just leave it be. For starred seekers you have Bonemass power.Īlso you don't have to go to an area with a Gjall, you don't have to clear all chambers of an Infested mine. Multiple seekers can be defeated by kiting and blocking. I agree it is hard at the start, but comparable with older biomes.Ĭoastal areas are usually without fog, I've found enough mines to collect enough black cores to craft Black forge and Galdr table (you actually need just 5 cores to craft everything). I like the fog and the claustrophobic feeling it generates (especially when hearing the Gjall in I also play with the old world, and personally Mistlands biome is my favourite. The forge gets new upgrades after you enter the swamp, so two biomes. If you encounter an impossible enemy, you run away.Ĭrafting progression is also consistent: iron armor at the start is almost the same as upgraded bronze armor. You get killed by trolls, get chased trough half the island by Elite Draugr, don't stand a chance against two star Draugr archer in the crypts. So what I can see is the difficulty jumps are the same. I still get annihilated by starred Draugr, so I just avoid the body piles in a big circle. Now I crafted my first iron armor and shield, and manage to melee kill my first Abomination. Upgrading armor and weapons, Trolls became manageable, until I died five times just entering the swamp. Until I encountered my first Troll and almost died from two hits. Meadows and the first boss was easy, fighting Greydwarves in black forest was tedious at first but also became easy. So I have two worlds and two characters so I can compare the progression. After diving into Mistlands with an old character, getting my ass totally kicked at the beginning, I decided to start a new world and a new character, to see, if it is really such an impossible difficulty jump.
