The ocean keeps a lot of secrets and resources, so it is important to analyze everything in more detail: from the monsters that live there to useful items, without which you simply won’t be able to become the strongest Viking.
Any Viking in his new ship already ready to ship. Sailing far from the coast, the player will definitely fall into the Ocean - a little “desert” (in of inhabitants) biome.
The developers said about improving water spaces in the future. They want to add new mobs, resources and new weather nuances. So far, the Ocean is quite poor in of gameplay compared to other biomes. However, there is something to profit from here and something to see.
Ocean Resources in Valheim
Pisces
In Valheim, you can easily prepare nutritious meals. Fish are one of the important ingredients. I have an opportunity catch them even with bare hands - this will require shallow water with its small inhabitants. It is enough just to aim the cursor at an unsuspecting fish, and grab it by pressing "E".
You can go more reliable ways. True, you need to find a small enjoy fishing.
For catching fish it is necessary to throw the lineby holding down the left mouse button. It is important not to overdo it, as using a fishing rod depletes the character. To properly manage endurance, short casts are suitable.
Here you will also have to show patience, as with manual fishing. When the float starts to descend, right click to fix the hook. Further, click again and hold winding the line.
Leviathans
These creatures are full-fledged marine inhabitants, although they look like moving islands. The most important items mined on the surface of Leviathans are Chitin and Abyss Shell. But you should be careful: when extracting resources the creature has a 10% chance to go underwater. The player will only have a few seconds to jump off the island when the animal makes a characteristic scream. Otherwise, the Viking runs the risk of setting sail. After obtaining the necessary materials, the player alsoget new blueprints for crafting weapons.
Biome Threats
The ocean contains some dangers that cannot be neglected.
Sea snakes in Valheim
It is a the only living threat in this biome. Sea Serpents attack ing ships and rafts. Great for battle carves and drakkarsdue to its high strength.
You can defeat them alone, but it will be very problematic. Much better to overcome sea serpents with the help of a whole group of Vikings. Also, don't forget about them. vulnerability to cold. Ice arrows are a good help in the fight with these marine inhabitants.
Defeating the monster will give the player scales, snake meat and the corresponding trophy. The main thing is not to lose resources somewhere in the Ocean. Very often there were situations when the dropped drop was simply lost in the water.
Sea storms
Bad weather also makes changes to the game. So, while swimming in the Ocean, at any moment the player can catch up with the storm. A Viking ship will capsize, especially if sailing into the wind with the sail down.
Ships tip over and on hard impact from sea snakes or, for example, in a collision with rocks. The choppy waves themselves during a storm are not enough to capsize a ship, but they are a terrible addition to other tragic cases.
The fate of things lost in the ocean
Things in the ocean in Valheim do not disappear. Drop from a killed Viking can be restored: He will wait for the player on the surface of the water, right in his floating tombstone. Any shipwreck or impact from a serpent cause a loss of resources. Some items will irrevocably sink, while the rest will remain at the place of death on the water surface.
It all depends on the weight of things. Drops such as various trees and trophies of killed enemies will float on the surface. Animal skins, coins and bronze nails will go under the water.
After the murder Moder (fourth boss) you can get the ability fair wind, which allow ships to navigate in any direction regardless of the direction of the element. It is also recommended to repair your ship after each encounter with a sea serpent. This increases the chances of success in future travels.
