# Valheim 1.0

> Source: [Valheim 1.0](https://youtube.com/watch?v=AjwI4jr0Ogw)

## Summary

The video is a Valheim gameplay stream where the creator, Cody, rebuilds and expands his base after a save reset. He outlines plans for storage, a farm, a tower, and a bridge, while also engaging with chat, sharing tips, and discussing updates.

### Key Points

- **Save Reset and Starting Over** [00:00] — Cody is glad his save was reset, as it allows for a fresh start. The base currently has an intro area and a main resource area, but lacks walls, farms, and forges, which he plans to build on stream.
- **Island Base and Bridge Plan** [01:21] — He discovered his base is on an island and plans to build a bridge and dock to connect it to the mainland, which will also facilitate bringing animals like wolves over. The bridge will be a large build requiring significant iron.
- **Boss Progression and Plains Access** [02:58] — Cody and his group have defeated the boss 'Lode' (likely Moder), unlocking access to the Plains biome. They plan to visit the Plains soon, noting a portal and easy sailing access from their island.
- **Blueberry Lights Meaning** [04:16] — A chat viewer explains that blueberry lights indicate a peaceful 'tall bano' (likely 'tar bano' or similar) area where greenlings, skeletons, and huts spawn. Cody finds this interesting as he had noticed the lights but didn't know their meaning.
- **Drawbridge Update Discussion** [07:01] — Cody sees a drawbridge in the game's recent update but notes it's too small for his needs. He considers using it for his own bridge but decides to wait for a better version later.
- **Base Layout Vision** [08:43] — Cody shares his vision: a tower for a bedroom/living room, glass furnishings on one side, and farming in another area. He checks if flooding kills plants and is told it doesn't.
- **Bow Skill Leveling Tip** [16:01] — A chat viewer shares a tip: use the TWIG target dummy to train bow skill by standing behind it and shooting wooden arrows, which can raise the skill above 40 in about 20 minutes, especially with the archer tool.
- **New Crafting Unlocks** [17:30] — After defeating Loder, they can buy a Sprite Candle from the Bogwitch. They are also setting up a smith's anvil and sharpening stone, requiring a chain and other materials.
- **Resource Needs and Iron Run** [24:07] — Cody realizes he has only 8 iron left and needs more for building, so he plans an iron run. He has two extra resources enabled and notes the larger boat and better materials will make the run faster.
- **Armor Goal and Portal Room Change** [26:01] — He wants a full set of movement speed armor, so he plans to return to a previous area. He also changes his mind about building a portal room, opting for a balcony over the bedroom instead.
- **Construction Progress and Preferences** [34:08] — Cody is building, noting his stone walls are 'ugly' and may be replaced with better materials later. He jokes about building in rainstorms and references his experience from a previous playthrough.
- **Chat Interaction and Birthday** [36:57] — He acknowledges a viewer's birthday and engages in lighthearted chat about world maps ('Africa is much larger on the map, but still not as large as Chad's mom.')

## Transcript

Oh. Okay, so I'm going to be very good about back-upping my saves moving forward.
You know what? To be real, I'm kind of glad this happened now. So now hopefully this won't have to get any worse. If you remember, when we looked around that corner in the earlier save, it was basically just a big flat grass area.
But this is where we are now. this is the beginning this is just the start so all we've done is made a little intro area I think I'm going to put storage either three up
or maybe do storage over here too I haven't decided yet and then the only other thing I've made is the main resource area which is going to be here so I think we're going to put like all of our stations in here and give it like a nice big amount of area
but that's it so I have big plans for this area but I don't really know what else we're doing I put some wood over there. I need to build farms. I don't have my forges up.
Like, I purposefully left a ton of stuff to do. Like, I could have done all this last night, but I was like, you know what? No, the stream wants to see all this. So we're going to do all this on trees. So I haven't even built a wall yet. We haven't even figured out what we're going to do about that.
Another thing I want to do is I need to build a bridge. Because last night I found out I inadvertently built on an island. So I thought we were connected to like this region here. Nope! So what we're going to need to do is, since I do want to bring over like some wolves and stuff, I think I'm going to turn this into like a proper dock and have the middle go down.
Kind of like this. Oh also I harvested a bunch of stuff so we have building materials today. You can see like I got a bunch of stone and stuff out myself. I think we'll put like this here but then maybe on the side we'll go up and
then we'll have like an actual bridge that goes up and across and that way we have a we have an area like drag animals and things that we need to across the area but that's gonna be a big build and require a lot of iron that I don't feel like we
have right now. Um, let's see. So we got all, I don't have any food on me. So we need to, let's see, what is the next kind of big stuff I need to do? Um, we need to get our farming
going. We need to decide what our farm is going to look like. So let's kind of bring stuff out over here and we'll start, we'll start deciding that. Wait, why don't I have any stone? Oh, it's all in the, oh, it's all in the boat. That's right, I was getting
on the other side of the lake. Oh, wait, we gotta... We need a bridge is what we need. That's okay. Don't we need to make a plane space field? Yeah, we're actually... We just beat Lode.
We just beat Lode. So at this point, we can go to the plane. Which we're gonna be doing here in just a few minutes, actually. I'm just kind of getting... I want to get some basic stuff started here. And we'll kind of work on the base
as we make progress and do more things on this side. Yeah. As we need other buildings and things, we'll just start kind of packing them on and adding
them on. Like one thing we need to do for instance is I need to figure out where we're going to do our kitchen. Don't really have a spot for that yet. I do want to have a big tower I think for kind of like our bedroom, a big nice, a nice
large tower situation. I think we're going to do that at the top back here, which I think will be really cool. So we'll fill this up and start getting some groundwork done here.
Hmm, start working on that today. Alright, all this area is going to need a little bit more love.
There we go, fine. Let's go ahead and bring the other stuff over while we're thinking about it. Oh, dude, how interesting. I didn't know that. I was wondering that.
A pro-carnage interesting tidbit. The blueberry lights mean this is a peaceful, tall bano where greenlings and skeletons and huts will spawn. You can see over there. Do those blue lights? I definitely noticed those, and I had no idea what they were.
That's really cool. Thank you, Cedric. Let's see if I can get out for now. Oops! How full are we? We're not full at all. Let's finish getting what we got here. A lot of rocks.
Let's get some more rocks here and then once this is full we'll just sail the boat over and bring it into our base. Um, should I bring the cart up a little bit?
How many bosses did we kill? We just killed Modare. Uh, that was our last boss we've killed. I don't even have an artisan table at our new base yet, but we're just about to start working on the planes. I think we have some ports next to planes, don't we?
I mean, we've got a plane right on our island. We can just run over to here, which is something we know I do. We can just sail up to there, too. Easy, easy. Oh, actually, we should do that, because it'll be real easy to move metal from there back. Yeah, dude.
So we're going to go check this out. We'll probably bring up a portal. This is wrong. Oh, no. We totally put a portal over here, but...
Oh, it's boss. Yeah, yeah, hold on. No, no, it's right here. Somewhere around here. I think it's like here. And it's called, uh, boss... Right? Boss and camp? I think so.
That's not right. We're going to get a few more rocks here and then we're going to go and get them back. You're going to make a drawbridge so enemies don't have a highway into your base?
Oh, we're going to build a proper wall this time. Yeah. Oh, yeah. What's new in Valheim?
The ending. Yeah, the ending is a big one. Apparently there was an update last night. I haven't read the patch notes yet. Yeah, I saw there's a drawbridge, but is this it?
Hold on. Let me find it. Where's the drawbridge I saw? There. That's the drawbridge? It's not very big. I need something a lot bigger than that. Kind of cool.
I mean, maybe we could implement that in our bridge. Somehow. Lots of things. Yeah. There might be a world where we can make that work with ours.
And then just build a solid bridge across with a little drawbridge thing. That would be kind of cool. All right, we're going to grab this one and head back. That's the rustic drawbridge. There's a better one later. Oh, great. Okay. Awesome. Well,
you know what? In that case, let's wait for that until we make our, um, until we make our big bridge then. We'll see what that looks like. Okay, that is a good amount of rock to start with. We should be able to get some good foundations down with that.
We will almost assuredly be doing a good amount of harvesting over here. I'm going to go ahead and just leave this part.
Great.
So right now, I'm thinking behind this structure is going to be a tower. And that'll be kind of like our Roman slash living room. and then over here we're gonna have glass furnishings and I'm thinking over here
we'll do farming. Actually wait a second if you farm and it floods does the floods kill the plants?
No okay Sure, we're good. And we'll get that done. Okay. All right all right let see what we gonna do now is I do want to throw together a very basic
kind of chart to our tower and that way well actually we can sleep in another place for now
What? Oh, probably because it's night. So I guess nighttime overrides the friendly green.
Okay. Did it go through the Kajima update? I did see the update for Fizzant. Stargard is going to be the main. Which, honestly, like, I really like that actor,
but I have trouble in my head having him as a main of a spy thriller. So I'm very interested to see how Kojima's going to do that. I have faith it'll work.
I know it's going to work fine, but, like, I can't connect that in my head. But he's also wildly talented, so I'm sure he'll pull it off. Yeah. And I don't know who the other person is.
Is the other person the antagonist? That's kind of interesting. I'm not familiar with the other person's work. It's on the cover. Mm-mm. Onions!
These delicious onions. Mm. Yeah, they announced a handful of people. They didn't just announce Bill. There was the cover with Bill and I think the other girl.
I think it was a picture of Bill and another guy. There was a bunch of things, right? Mm. I'm going to look into it all later. I just thought I would stop glancing through Twitter.
Alright, there we go. Perfect. Let's get all that foot away. Great. We don't even have onion store here. That's fine. We need to bring over our seed.
Let's do that now because we want to get our farm going here pretty soon. Where are our last seeds? We've got carrot. We've got turnip. Didn't I just harvest a bunch of onion seeds?
I've got ivy, you guys try planting that ivy, that could be really cool. Ummm... They're in the shittin' somewhere.
Are they in here? I don't even know, what do onion seeds even look like? I'm not even sure what I'm looking for. Where are they going? They're, they're black-team?
Oh, okay. Little black seeds? Oh, gosh. I knew that was coming.
Where did I put you, unguilty? Where did I put you? I need some of you, by the way. I'm going to bring these over.
Bro, I've had to have passed them. I definitely passed them somewhere else. I know I harvested some!
I think you've got only onions, not seeds? Oh. Krogondor, I like it! That's fun! I have an idea for a 2.0, red, black, root, t-shirt.
Hmm. I like it. It's fun.
Okay. Cool.
Got to get all this nice and level.
Nice and level. Code you encounter any Unreal crashes during your soccer run?
I think a couple. I think we had a couple crashes in that, if I'm not mistaken. Okay. We have to think about where we want our first field.
Probably over here. So I do want to start working on that area.
Why can't I repair an item? Wait, what? Does it cost resources to repair?
Oh, the bench is too low. That would do it, wouldn't it? Alright. Alright.
There's that. There's that.
There's that. Hmm.
Can I fix this?
Let's see. Only the meme! Hey, a tokenage. A little tip, if you are interested, that can make you an OP Viking minigun. I've been using the TWIG target dummy to train my bow still through the roof.
Use wooden arrows from behind. Build it facing away from you. If it outgrows, rebuild it facing away again. Stand quick, and if you do that for like 20 minutes max, you raise it above 40 or so.
Go faster if you use the archer tool. I had mine at 68, and it didn't even feel like a long time. Man, there you go. Sounds like a good tip if you want to take advantage of that.
Hell yeah. Appreciate it, man. I don't know if I used my bow enough for that myself, but that's still a cool tip. Alright, we need the wheel for the sharpening stone, and then we need a smith's anvil.
Okay, let's go back here. I'll break my step down there and come back.
Oh, damn it. Should have pulled that back first, it looks like. Um, let's do...
use a new... Oh, we can buy a Oh! We can buy a Sprite Candle from the Bogwitch now that we've defeated Loder. Cool. Hell yeah.
Great. Wonderful. Mmm... okay. Now let's go back.
You can harvest in a whole area with that? Oh, dude, what? Awesome. Sounds great.
Love to hear it.
Okay. Okay, too much. Oh, what's so heavy? The obsidian? Oh, the obsidian is really heavy. Wow.
Get you in there. Rocks weigh a lot you weigh a lot Oh now Okay
Don't, don't Dakota, pack that man's weight
Uh, no, no, no. No, I didn't attack that man's weight. I would have embraced it, but there was two... no, I'm kidding. Um... hold on. Uh, where is... where can I put you? It's so weird how these have to go so much further from... like, really? All the way over here?
Okay, I mean it fits, right? Um, what are we missing? We got the anvil, we got the stone, we're missing something. Oh, the bellows. We need a chain.
Let's go get our animal thing. Our animal parts, here we go.
All the stuff we've been harvesting off random enemies the whole time.
Okay, over here. Park. Oh, first let's do this, see if it goes anywhere. Great.
Okay. Wonderful. Those are going to go somewhere else.
Um. Great.
Okay. What do I think of Fire Emblem? I thought it was pretty great. I had a good time with it. Yep. I had a good time with it. Man, what?
Okay, you go there. And then come to the bucket over here. Oh, thank God. Perfect. Wait, maybe. Okay.
That worked. Core level 7. Hell yeah. Okay. Great. I do not only have 8 iron left
oh my god ok oh lord
alright so we have to do another iron run very soon it looks like Um, we're pretty repaired. What do I need for you?
Uh, where's my... Oh, no?
Oh, that's weird. Oh, it doesn't want to snap to this. Oh, I can't do a snap in the middle. Oh, we know we could do. Let's do...
Lovely.
There we go.
We can make that work. Great. Okay, what are the other things? Do I not have auto-pickup on? That was on. That's weird. Okay, next for this we need...
this guy. Can I put you back here? Yeah, good. Let's put you back here.
And then... a little chopping axe. And then... this thing. Oh, please, so this can go in the center. Perfect. Oh, dude, that's so nice. Great. Lovely. Okay, so we're good with those now. Awesome. Um, okay. Oh, we're gonna need
more iron. We might want to do an iron one before we do the plane. Can we do that, chat? I'm sorry to take you might want to.
Yeah. Uh, up here I just realized I think I'm going to change the game a little bit because I think I want my photo room up here. Can you zoom?
I'm okay. Okay, so you're pretty great yourself. You're eating tons of iron?
I am. Yeah. Thankfully, we are in a much, much better spot to get it now, which is wonderful. Actually, you know what? The first thing I think we're going to do is continue doing what we were doing yesterday because I really want a full set of this stuff I'm wearing now.
This is like some movement speed set armor. And I want to get this done early. So I think we may go back to this area. In fact, maybe we'll just run there. And check that out.
Hey, KitKat with the five bomb. How you doing, dude? Thank you very much for that, man. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Hope you're doing well, buddy. Don't forget, Cody, you can do extra resources just for the iron run.
You know what? I've already decided. I mean, I'm already on two extra resources. That's enough. That's enough. Like, I don't want to do any more than two. I'm making that conscious decision.
Two extra resources. Already enough. Already enough. Thank you, though. It's a good suggestion. We're good. We are good. And besides, now that we have a bigger boat and we have much better materials, it's going to go a lot quicker than it did in the past.
Yeah, I keep using my potions by accident. I need to work on that. I just like not have them equipped when I'm not, uh, when I'm fat fingering around here all the time. Okay, so I want to have a portal room.
But I just decided I don't want a portal room. I just decided I'm gonna be difficult. I want a total balcony over my bedroom.
Had to be difficult. Had to be difficult. Can't just be happy with our original idea.
Now just open here. Yeah I know right, a big fridge there. Thankfully I harvested a metric butt stone last night so we can do some building today.
So we need U a little bit of red blue I think that enough I think that what we going to go out to for now
As long as it touches the ground, it maintains the blue, and that's what we're looking for. If it's blue, then that means it's a foundational element, and anything that touches it will work off the foundation.
Thank you.
I'm mapping out my head how I want to do this.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Okay.
Oh, lost my hand. Sorry. I'm almost on sound. Summer.
Cool. I think I'm starting to see how I'm going to want this. Well, actually, maybe?
Oh yeah, okay, that makes sense.
Ummm...
Is that going to attach to the side?
I hope it does. That would be great. I too love constructing houses in rainstorms, by the way. Good times.
What am I building? Oh, you'll see. No stone walls? My stone walls are ugly. I don't like my stone walls right now. We may replace these with something else different, but my stone right now is nasty. I don't like it.
I'm going to get better building materials later, don't worry about it. Yeah, yeah.
Was I a Lego kid? Yeah, I was a big Lego kid.
I have 14 health.
If I fall again, I'm going to die. I am very determined. So don't fall.
I'll be quicker. I'll be quicker. The face looks like the one from last playthrough.
A little bit, yeah, yeah. I'm already, I'm already, I'm taking some stuff we learned from that one. I think I'm going to use it in this one. Mm-hmm.
This is going to look good. I'm starting to see it. I'm starting to see it. Yes. Oh, absolutely, Iron Man. Yes, we're good on the line.
Hey, also, Kit Kat with the bomb earlier. Happy Thursday. Chat, it's my birthday. Thrilled to be hanging out here this morning. Happy birthday, Kit Kat. Appreciate you spending some time with us, dude. Uh, then we also had Dr. Terry.
Oh, this is a really good point, man. At CoCarnage, did you know the UN improved the world map recently? Africa is much larger on the map, but still not as large as Chad's mom's.
Wow. That's a good point. All right, let's go.
I can't sleep on two motions.
I don't like this one. Can that man stay there on TV?
I think he just did. I think he just did.
