The FASTEST Way to Get Through the Bronze Age (EASY) | Valheim Guide for Beginners/Advanced Players

it's not a secret that the bronze age is the most tedious and unenjoyable experience you'll ever have in valheim but let's face it it's absolutely necessary in this video i'm going to give you tips and tricks on how to mine efficiently as well as what to make first in order to make this phase of the game easy and somewhat enjoyable so you've killed the first boss uses antlers to make a pickaxe bludgeon skeleton after skeleton in their natural habitat in hopes of finding the motherlode of cirtling cores oh my god it's huge and then you slap down a charcoal kiln and smelter well saddle up buddy because now the fun begins oh wait it it ends now the fun ends sounds like funyuns now i'm sure we all know where to find copper and tin and how to turn them into bronze but in case you forgot here's a refresher copper is found in this and it looks like this tin looks like this it's also found in this but only if it's next to this you throw the tin and copper into this and it comes out like this then you take them to this and you select this then you click this and now you got bronze baby [Applause] mining 10 is pretty easy it's real easy there's nothing like it you just run along the water in the black forest and you smack them as you see them be sure to make a note of the river systems in the black forest also as tin will spawn there as well when my inventory gets full i like to mark the map where i might send last so i know where to pick up whenever i need more now for the part of the game that will make you hate the gods in existence itself mining copper when you come across your first copper vein don't just jump in and start swinging all willy-nilly oh there's a better way there's an easier way there's my way i spent over 270 hours in the copper mine so you wouldn't have to don't believe me check the log so set your pride aside and accept your fate baby because for the next few days you're gonna be breaking rocks the first thing you'll want to do when you find your new home is slap down what i like to call the workbench shelter copper deposits are huge and your pickaxe is going to break a lot so you need a place to repair you'll also need a place to refresh your rested buff alright so this is how i make the workbench shelter workbench wall proof ridge walls on both sides roof ridge batch roof fire and i usually put a door too in case you need to go afk you could break that wall down and you have shelter what i also like to do is put two chests this is just where i store the bronze and the stone that i acquire during all of this the second thing you need to do is dig around the copper deposit just find where the copper ends dig down a little bit start digging around the edges this will help you get an idea of where the deposit ends so you're not wasting time smashing rock in the wrong direction at this point you've dug around the copper deposit and you've probably also cleared out some trees as well so the third thing you'll want to do is place fires around your deposit the fire will scare off gray dwarves and make sure they don't bother you while you're mining especially at night now you're ready to start collecting that sweet sweet copper baby just pick one side and work your way across there's a hidden mechanic with mining that affects how much damage you're able to do to said mine don't be like this guy smacking the mine from a distance for little to no damage what you want to do is get up close to the mine usually right on top of it and then start mining you'll do significantly more damage and it'll be a hell of a lot easier in the long run once you've left the giant crater in the world it's time to start hauling it all back for the smelter make sure you're loading up your smelter and kiln in between trips so it's constantly pumping out bars while you're gone once every last bit of copper is back at your base mark the crater on your map to remind you that you still have stone there and we'll get more into this later next we're going to dive in on what you need to make first there's a lot of useful items and tools you'll need to get right away the first one being the forge obviously i mean how else are you going to make anything the next thing you'll want to make is the axe once you do that you can start collecting fine wood from birch and oak trees which will be needed for very important items such as the boat fermenter fine wood bow and upgrades for your forage and workbench the third thing you want to make is a cultivator with the cultivator you can start planting all the carrot seeds you found inside the black forest it's very important to get a healthy garden up and running so you can produce carrots be sure to plant some of those carrots into more seeds so you don't have to keep picking them from the black forest you'll also want to plant seeds you've obtained from trees this will allow you to have your own personal forest close by that will give you a steady supply of wood next on the list is the cauldron with the cauldron you can make better foods such as carrot soup and queens jam you can also produce meads that will give you defensive buffs once fermented now you need to make a cart boat and fermenter it doesn't really matter what order you do it in but they're all something you'll eventually need if you have copper deposits close to your base i'd make a cart for easier transportation and storage it's also good to make a cart in general for when you need to make wood runs if you have copper deposits far from your base make the boat it only holds four slots but that's usually enough to hold an entire copper deposit you also need the boat for when you want to venture off and explore new lands then there's the fermenter where you will ferment all the meads you've made from your cauldron these meads will give you a variety of different buffs that will prepare you for the road ahead now that you've made the essentials you can focus on upgrading your forge and workbench as well as making weapons and armor but beware the more you make an upgrade means the more time you have to spend in the copper mines watching the days flow by but wait there's more remember all that stone you left at your copper crater well you don't want it to sit there forever you'll eventually need all that stone so whenever you're ready plop down a portal in your base make your way towards the marker you left on your map once there throw down another portal and connect it now you can easily carry all that stone through the portal and back to your base where it belongs don't forget to take down your shelter and campfires as well because that's just more resources baby hopefully this guidance of the bronze age was helpful and if it was don't forget to slap
