I always look for a small island in the plains biome, then I lock it down with a bunch of work benches and plant a barley farm. Set up a portal and you're good. You're gonna want several windmills.
I usually advise against making queen's jam since the berries are extremely important for other more powerful recipes and a ton of potions later on. Stick with plain honey til you find a better stamina food
I agree with you. I often use honey as my "doing daily chores around my house stamina food" it's cheap but also decent for stamina. Then I save my more expensive foods for the more dangerous adventuring
You can catch fish early without a fishing rod by building a trough using roof sections angled like a v. Just build the v out about 10 blocks right at the water line and somewhere within render of your base. Over time go check on it and you'll find some fish beaches inside of it. Theres ways of tweaking this, but that's the basic idea for yall to play with
I didn't know you could do that. Very cool! I've found fish randomly along the coastline (sometimes they do wash up on shore). But I've never built a contraption to try and catch fish. I'll have to try this
To highlight how powerful serpent food is: serpent meat and stew can be eaten together for a combined +150 health and +49 stamina, early as the iron age. Stew is currently tied for 2nd best food with honey glazed chicken and meat platter, and the serpent meat is tied with fish wraps. Makes you wonder though what they'll introduce with the ashlands since we've got some kind of fiery serpent in the teasers. Also, much as I love the video I have to ask... why not use the 'new biome' sound Valheim has instead of the Dark Souls sound? :D
Yeah the serpent food is super crazy considering how early you can get it! That's a good question. I just really like the Dark Souls sound effect. That said, the Valheim sound effect is really good too. Maybe I'll use it in a later video!
They need the menues to be additive. I have a box of turnips and a box of Carrots but they really are not used once you get to the mountains/plains. Mushrooms at least are still used but a deer stew with onions and cloudberries would be nice. Or turnip stew with wolf meat or something. Also, we need a fishing net. Vikings used nets why cant we?
@@SpazzyjonesGaming ya not sure a lot of people do. But there are chests down there with the boss. I love progression breaking things in the game. Like sailing around Mistlands early game to get easy black marble that you can see from the boat to get early cooking station upgrade. Also Dveger doors for early ygersil wood. You either need to use the cart method or throw puffer fish at Dverger to not engage them.
Honestly thought you were going to give your opinion on the best combo for health and stamina taking into account all foods and ease of access. Honey is the most helpful food and is a staple thru the entire game except in boss fights. What would be the other two good foods?
It definitely evolves throughout the game and the later into the game the better the food. You're right about honey, its a good cheap food that you can use deep into the game. Another one I would recommend is bread. its simple to make only requiring barley, plus its a great stamina good. If you want the absolute best foods for health,stamina,eitr, here you go: Health: Misthare Supreme Honey Glazed Chicken Meat Platter Serpent Stew Stamina: Fish N'Bread Mushroom Omelette Salad Eitr: Seeker Aspic Yggdrassil Porridge Stuffed Mushroom
Carrot soup as preferred food? Carrot is not that easy to produce and it goes for both stew and soup. You'll need a hell lot of carrot grind, while you will have an abundance of yellow mushrooms and honey.
