The Iron Age [Swamp] - The Complete Beginner's Guide To VALHEIM Series #3

you dream of it the dreams won't stop it's putrid rotten smells sustaining your nostrils even as you sleep night after night it calls you you it challenges you wishes to bring your fate your corruption your death and Decay as it's brought across all the land is touched awake we're push back this evil once again what's up Gamers welcome to Gamestar Nation my name is Rob and today in this video right here I'm going to teach you how to get to and through the swamps and therefore the Iron Age in valheim now this is the third video in my tutorial series the first one covering the meadows and the first boss I fear which gives you access to the pick my second video covered the black forest and the boss Elder giving you the swamp key which is going to be crucial in getting iron you'll need the swamp key for the summer Crips that we'll be looking for so one thing this video assumes is that you have a full set of at least troll armor in this case I've set myself up with just barely upgraded armor just to show you that it can be done uh relatively simply so I've got level two which is to upgrade each piece just one time of troll armor if you have bronze armor you'd be even a bit better off uh I do have a fully upgraded Pinewood bow but other than that all my other arm weapons are just upgraded once you know the tools maybe a Max but the the armored weapon is one that upgraded once so if you were to use the same gear but upgrade everything even one more that I have you'll be even better off to be even easier now another thing you need is arrows lots of them I've got over 200 fire arrows to be honest fire errors or a poor choice for the swamp but I got a bunch of them so I'm gonna go ahead and use them anyways uh but bring wood arrows bring Flint arrows I wouldn't waste bronze on bronze arrows play Arrows is about as good errors you'll need for the swamps um winner is you just fine good food though is going to be an important part of survival so I've got some deer stew uh give us that Health bump I've got Queens Jam did you give us a bunch of stamina and then I've got carrot soup if we want more stamina or we can go with some board jerking against even balance so I've got four different items kind of shoes based on the situation but bring at least three good quality foods with you a good protein you know a good stamina and the third one's up to you it's gonna swing more Health chance survival or stamina but in the swamp stamina is I don't want to say more important health because you need help to survive but running out of stamina and it could definitely equal an early demise and as always I have upgraded the house this is the same house as previous videos uh we built kind of a deck over there for the portal uh got a little Forge and some forged upgrades out here on the new dock of course you guys have a Dockers to have oh and then if we head inside you know I've added some details to the outside I actually made it bigger again we got our table here with our Treasures our table and cabinets we've got our workbench chests our fireplace of course and uh bed that's pretty much it now I know it would be most of you choose to mount Ike there's head there instead of a standard deer but I'm just looking for a humble little cabin you know I'm just going for that feel not really necessarily a monster hunter's cabin you don't have to show off you know when you're good you don't have to show it now unfortunately when I picked this world I did no research who just grabbed a random seed and this one uh doesn't really appear to have any swamps close by which is not unusual swamps are rarely found in a starting zone but I had the same problem with the black forest and we may have the same problem with the mountains and so on so we are gonna have to do what we always have to do and that is to get out there and explore now of course we've got a car this time around in the last video we started off with a raft and that's always kind of a slow nightmare but this time we're not too bad off the carb is actually a really nice vessel nice ship it's got a good speed to it it's very maneuverable probably the most agile of the boats in the game uh and it can take some abuse so if we come across the sea serpent uh we'll be able to hold the road [Music] looky what we have here those creepy dead trees are sure sign that we found a swamp exactly what you want to look for where you're sailing looking for a swab look for those big tall dead trees when you find them you know you're there okay we don't want to really just go charging right in we're going to kind of skim by the side here and get a look see what we can find skeletons swamp skeletons just like normal skeletons they're no more dangerous than others ah but those other ones behind them those are draggers those are very dangerous they hit like a mule kicks and very careful for them also in the water are leeches leeches will both have a powerful bite as well as are poisonous if they bite you it will poison you and it is pretty deadly toxin it's far more deadly than shamans you definitely want to avoid it whenever possible okay I'll I'll be honest this spot looks kind of clear I don't see too many mobs here we're gonna go ahead and bring her on in let's begin our adventure okay Mark the map so we know where to find our boat although I'm kind of rammed up really kind of far on Shore it might make for a tough getaway so let's scoot this back a little bit in the water so if you need to get out here quickly can in fact if you want to be safe and take the time to come in backwards so you can sail straight out it's a good idea okay I'm gonna head this way because I see some throwing torches yeah so this is not going to be anything this is going to be like ruins of something in the past but the same torches that we found Guardian a crypt and the Crypt is we're going to find the majority of the iron I say majority a lot of people think that's the only place you'll find iron but there's actually piles of muck out here and the swamps you can find and if you dig in them you have a chance to get an iron as well uh here's another torch ahead and that is a crypt that's exactly what we need look at that how lucky were we just got them sure we already found a crib that's awesome okay as I mentioned yeah you should bring a hoe with you and the reason is when you've got spots like this um you should take the time to to build a trail uh for a fast getaway let me get over by our boat and I'm gonna make a trail from our boat to that Crypt so we can kind of quickly get in and out um because it's gonna take several loads of iron a Crips are just about guaranteed to have iron in it if you find a [ __ ] you found the iron iron is much much easier and far better than bronze unlike bronze that you have to have 210 and one copper to make one bronze bar um so when that takes nearly as long you create some good iron things once we've lined the iron this is another reason you want to go kind of stamina heavy when it comes to Foods but we do need to kill these guys because they're going to drop an ingredient that we can use in several recipes running look at that he's running I just followed his health bar to find him just shot under the health bar instead of this guy I can't really see the leech right now but shoot a little bit under his health bar and you'll get him there we go we get the blood bag and we unlock a mead base of frost resistance there's another new base there a banner a few things okay let's get back to making a pass there we go we've got a walkway right up to Fritz this is it here this is a [ __ ] this is where you're gonna find the majority of the iron in the swamp this is also why you need the swamp key swamp key unlocks these doors so you really can't get in there at least not without using exploits um without the swamp key and there's also an undead burial ground right here uh there's basically a little spawners for drugers and skeletons typically found him he's a sponsor his oftentimes a chest I think that's it right there there's a chest right there but you really early on you really don't want to mess the drug use unless you have to and we're going to have to when we get inside the Crips so we're gonna leave these guys alone this guy's coming up on us right now I don't think he sees us yet but definitely suspicious oh they're all coming this way look in fact they're heading straight towards us means they're kind of suspicious they either heard me or saw some movement this way I really don't want to take on three drivers I'll be honest I should have just opened that door and got inside instead of showing you around but it is what it is find ourselves in the situation we find ourselves in stocks oh I was wondering either way something the same thing one stops Archer's still coming around to attack the Archer chances are the other two are gonna be alerted like I said you should avoid drugger than possible early on but if you've watched my videos before you know I don't follow my own advice all right I think we did it without alerting the others wooden arrows [Music] oh is that another Archer they got their backs turned [Music] on the hell did I miss [Music] the um all right he's alerted [Music] oh good hit let's see troll armor still gives you enough defense oh I'm doing a poor job here enough defense to uh survive his attacks Harry and his key early on experience take even less damage than you will by blocking and of course it stuns up for a second but you do Critical Strike so we dropped all three drops and you will want to pick up the entrails because they are going to give you access to a fantastic food called sausages one of the best foods for the majority of the game all right so we got swamp key we're gonna go ahead and just interact with the door pop it open and let's go inside okay welcome to the inside of a sunken crib I generally get in there's three ways you can go a right a middle and a left although sometimes just like any of these instance dungeons one of those paths can be blocked off okay we're gonna go ahead and go left first so let's just get to digging now when you start breaking these oftentimes there's actually monsters look at that scrap iron sweet that one scrap iron we get it home and smelt it that becomes one iron ingot that's it it's that simple nothing like bronze at all but uh as I was saying on the other side of a lot of these piles is actually mobs you have blobs it looks like got one over there yeah blob um they're toxic they jump towards you and then put out like a gas they spray in all directions and if you're in the cloud you're you're poisoned and it's it's a pretty pretty mean poison uh and then there's also drawers a couple different kinds there's the Bowman this melee and there's like uh rugger Elites they're big old hulky investors it's like a two-handed sword it's a massive damage anyway so you want to do is you actually just want to make a small little hickey hole damn so you can see through it but they can't get to you now you have to watch out for the archers I just got shot by one he can shoot through that crack but he can't come through you can see him trying but he can't so if I show myself he'll begin aiming tip when dragger begin aiming they won't stop aiming they're dedicated the shot even if you go behind the corner they'll still shoot so you can actually get them to Amy as soon as they go around the corner to shoot hit them and go back around the corner again also let it over to Ames he shoots anyways even though he can't see me and that leaves me in an opening to shoot him all right so what he aims he shoots I finish do we need to sit here and pick him off right through the rack here without the bill that do anything to us the only ones you have to watch out for is our trees if there's no driver archers you're not in danger keep this crack too small for them to come through all right I don't hear see anything else in there so we're gonna go and take our chances and break this the rest of the way that scrap iron is heavy so you don't want to bring too much in your pockets nothing more than you need just so you can maximize the amount you can take oh all right killing that that slime got us ooze we're just making ooze bomb there's some more entrails so far it's so good though here we go with this bone we just picked up uh the only purpose they'll serve is to spawn the boss of the swamp you need 10 of those withered bones to spawn bone mass he's a giant sloppy slimy guy uh real tough considered one of the toughest bosses in the game at least up into mislands but there's a really easy way to cheese him and I plan on taking advantage of that just because it's just so much simpler to do it the way I'm gonna show you all right so sometimes you get little quarters like this and they will have usually two chests we've got two in this one and there's some other stuff just kind of lay on the shelves we got some Pearl Amber and then the two chests now what's nice about the chest is they they have a good chance of having iron scraps in them and when they do that you get quite a few at once so that's kind of what we're hoping for it's kind of like best case scenario with the chests because we're gonna get a bunch of scrap iron so that's less digging we have to do uh we got 19 off this one look at that plus 37 Gold and three rubies so the treasure chest you see are getting a lot better than they were uh you know previous biomes let's get scales up like that we're gonna use these chests to store the stuff we can't take with us right now that way it's easy to find when we get back so let's see if we pull out three of these how much weight we drop they're not quite there um it's probably gonna take two more yeah there we go okay so we're gonna go ahead and take this back to the boat and load it and then on to the next thing now of course I can just head to the boat and back and not even while they're filming it but I'm gonna take this time to show you a couple other things in the swamp there's a few things you're going to for while you're here uh and one of them is turnips now they're kind of hard to spot and they're not that common but there's a good chance you'll find one in every swamp it's a little yellow flowery plant once you find one you get a seed you can do low terms and you'll need those to upgrade your Kettle and get all kinds of new powerful recipes plus there's some really good foods that take turnips but terms of one of the few vegetables that you can't just eat by itself so you need to it's it's an ingredient only so you're gonna find turnips typically around these trees let's look for yellow flowers um other things to look for is guck these green like fussy blisters on these trees um they drop duck it's not super useful but you will need it for a few things and if I remember correct on the upgraded bows the geographering so this duck right here is down real lower we can get it easily you can of course build a ladder and platforms up there if you need to don't forget this is valheim you can build yourself the sky as long as you support it and it just so happens that these trees count as ground support so you can connect things to them and it acts as Foundation there we go I guess we've got good this got us a couple new items put in a type of Banner for decoration which also gives you a rest of those there's a turnip it was funny I was looking past the tournament over those over there and just happened to Glenstone to see the Turnstone so there's two of them here side by side that's a rarity let's get a good look at these so you can uh you know what you're looking for that is a turnip okay another thing you look for is ancient wood and that's these big trees but not the big big ones you can't cut those down they're just too dang thick but you'll find smaller ones like this right here you can cut this down and you're gonna get ancient wood the thing is I'm gonna go ahead and drop into my pockets before I show you that because you know like wood it's it's kind of heavy it's I think a few pounds a piece so let's zip your pocket so we can at least do that there's not much storage in a car once you get the long [ __ ] uh you'll get much more storage but this four should do for now let's go ahead and fell one of these trees and show you the new ingredients for the new recipes [Music] roll this back up on the shore close enough at least it's in the middle of the tree there we go ain't your bark got battle ax iron buckler bonfire let me get some more [Music] there will pull some treasure out and put the ancient bark in instead [Music] up to eight let's go for one more oh I heard him coming I just I knew he's gonna be nice to wreck fast enough reflex is a little slow today [Music] Harry and his key if you're not comfortable pairing then just block and when he once he hits counter if you take damage while blocking a significant amount then try to back up and outsmart them use like uh the logs to break pathfinding and use your your bow um to pick them off take your time try to run more circles he has some pursuing you're trying to kite and shoot just kind of run in circles because if you go running through the swamp you're going to keep pulling more and more ads eventually you get to a point where you just signed your own death warrant let's see if he's a bow man I think he's an Archer yeah so we're gonna go ahead and get fire with fire here God did you get a sneak attack on these guys that's just wooden Arrow sneak attack with a wooden arrow and a fully upgraded bow oh I just want to get him before I dang it anyways um I live here to find my bow and wood arrows we can drop those guys as long as you sneak attack him now let me show you the at Geyer this one I get is optional and I went for a long time when I first started playing this game I'm not even trying it out but now that I've tried it uh I love it and it's perfect for swamp and actually mountains because of worlds all right well he ran off we're gonna go ahead and intentionally kite him I never get distracted we're working on iron but first I'm going to show you here to make your make you more comfortable in the swamp okay you can use the block but it doesn't do the greatest job and I saw I took damage depending on your armor class is though you can't completely block the damage but what'll happen is if you just hit the attack button it'll poke I am intentionally missing him because he doesn't have much health as soon as I hit him he's gonna die but I just want to show you so it'll stop straight ahead and that's useful it's a quick attack doesn't use as much stamina as the special attack but the real point of having this is to keep things away from you so if you press the middle Mouse button in it does a swirl attack and that would happen to kill him but if it doesn't kill him it'll push him out past the boundary of the at Geyer so it knocks him like 10 feet away and can kind of keep them at a distance from you while you're trying to navigate to wherever you're going um and these server hits it does a fair amount of damage to him too so if you're stuck out in the wilderness he can't quite get to cover or shelter or whatever you're trying to head you can just slowly eliminate them while keeping that safe distance the only thing you have to worry about is it does use up a bit of stamina the iron one uses up a lot more stamina bronzo will use that to stamina if you run out of stamina or don't have enough to attack then you're well basically screwed now another thing to look out for in the swamps are these flame geysers it's just essentially fire shooting out of the swamp but it acts as this spawn point for certainly which are these extra dimensional fire beans that launch but on Fireballs at you uh this is a really bad environment for them because everything's wet their fire really doesn't have any impact and so they're really not that dangerous what you want to do is just clear out the area of them and then grab your hoe get down into the water if you have to dig with your pick to get lower do so and then just lower the ground so that it's just about beneath the water in fact you want almost all of it to be beneath the water except for a small amount you want a small amount of land to Peak above it at least while it Tides out which will give a spot for the surveillance to spawn now this little spot in the water if there's no land around but the spawn more often if this land spawn on the thing is the tide is always changing so as the tide comes in and the water level rises the servings are stuck in the water and have no choice but to die it's been a nice quiet peaceful evening watching sortling spawn and die again and again in the morning just go collect all the coal and Sterling the core so they dropped throughout the night and life is good now there's one creature that you need to be very aware of in the swamp it's a behemoth and it's quite dangerous especially at these uh lower levels they're easy to miss because then they're resting they look like a tree trunk sticking out of the water but they'll have like a green Mist around them but when you get close it'll wake them up and they'll come out and hunt you down they're an undead hunk of tree Mass like possessed roots or something and it's very aggressive there's lots of damage it's also fun to play with anyways when you kill the Abomination uh it'll drop several items but the most useful one is called Roots it's used to make the root armor which is a new armor set you'll unlock in the swamp uh it's a wooden armor set gives you resistance to poison but makes you more susceptible to fire it's a total optional choice just a little bit better than the troll armor if it's not something that interests you then you can just completely avoid these guys there's nothing really else but that's easy enough to get off the trees I have an entire video on Abominations I highly recommend you check it out I'll have a link in the description who's trying to get a good look at them for you we certainly don't want him to spot us oh I think he's aware of us oh yeah yeah he knows we're here it was at this moment that he knew he [ __ ] up okay so we need to go ahead and cartel out of here see if we can maybe stay out of the water uh it's best to weave through trees because they have to stop and go around and that gives you time to kind of recover your stamina or get away but I don't I think you know these little forts here don't usually have much more in them than a chest and of course some mobs [Music] but there's a chance to have a Boston shown where bone mass the third boss is oh look at that I know it's even finished my sentence in this one right there he's actually not far from here we are here he is here that is excellent so you want to keep an eye out for these obviously as you just saw the sports can hold the boss down so can the sun can Crips in the hallways where you find the treasure chests tucked into the walls now one of the last things we need to find in the swamp and this is something you certainly want to find in your game and that's a race because they dropped chain and that's an important ingredient in several new items that we need access to it's possible to find chains in chests throughout the swamp but you're guaranteed to get a chain of a race but be careful because rates hit super hard and they usually end up sneaking up on you because they hang at the Treetops of the swamp and they only come out at night well they'll oftentimes spot you before you spot them because how often are you looking up well they'll Glide down quickly towards you and we'll sneak right up on you completely silently the only sign you'll have is a glow around you right before this strike so keep your eyes peeled when you're at the swamp at night you definitely want to find them before they find you and it looks like I've been ambushed every single creature in this swamp just waiting for me here so Mama didn't raise no fool we're going inside and we're gonna go ahead and stay inside uh pray for the night really it's not too bad in here your keys to the smell eventually Maybe [Music] oh this one right there stay in here so you can get a look at him coming out of the ground it's pretty wild but I should uh I should go ahead and take this time to get the hell out of here okay yeah yeah yeah come on come on come on move move swung a little low there he has this over the top attack though that'll mess up well look at that he's helping us out to see hey thanks pal wow that really helped out all right let's see if we can pass him up before he catches up and go okay yeah there we go we're gonna straighten it up so we get the most speed going because he swings we want to be out of the way of this attack like we don't want to get hit by that thing oh looks like he's giving up and going home and so are we [Music] foreign [Music] at night there's a good chance to see serpent spawn in storms it's twice as good so the best time to find one is at night during a storm just like this one and here we go you see after my port side or left side that is a sea serpent and that serpent makes some of the best food in the game and you can access it with the iron they find the swamps that's to say you can make a cooking station that will hold this wonderful rack of ribs that we're gonna get off this thing oh okay so if you're just after the meat all you gotta do is kill Sea Serpent and the easiest way to do that is just with a whole bunch of arrows [Music] ah you just don't want to shoot your own boat like I just did luckily he'll miss a lot because he stops when he goes to bite and if you're you're going to pretty good speed you'll usually get past him so if you kill a sea serpent in the water C River always drops two things drops serpent scales which are used to make a tower Shield really nice looking one too and it drops serpent me which he used for food the meat floats so if you kill a sea serpent in the water there's no loss oh shoot I guess I should have been watching where I was going all right we'll see if we can keep him here [Music] actually at this point I can go in and just mail in [Music] oh he got scared I'm getting drunk out to sea and I have no stamina okay as long as he has something to attack he'll stay around here so looks like the Serpent's got to die on that gray dwarf yeah oh and the river's mad about it look at that he's he's gonna take him on and throw a rock at me you just like picking prices anybody don't you oh no he missed I'll help him all right is that his excuse something gets too too sometimes take off running but not this one okay so here we go see the meat floating at the top but the scales dropped down below so if you get the sea serpent down in deep water you'll have no chance of getting scales so because of that you want to drag the sea serpent onto Shore if you're after the scales in order to do that you need a harpoon and if you want to know how to get one of those I've got a video on it Link in the description uh but the meat is actually probably the more useful part the one you use more often and that just floats the top so I'm just gonna swim by to get that now luckily the scales were actually um close-up to Shore that I think I can get those little jump ah there we go all right there we go we can now make a serpent scale Shield which is both a great tower shield and a great decoration so whichever you prefer and we'll put that meat to use a little bit later this is a nice uh Excursion though [Music] [Music] and there is home oh and since we got here at night I have nothing better to do than smell the desire let's get the Kiln filled up kick back and relax good to be home it's not not a bad way to spend the night okay let's grab some of these up and see what we can make all right so we can make iron nails which that's gonna give us long shift Raven Throne armor strain all kinds of good stuff we can make an iron Buckler iron Greaves iron scale mail I need more iron ingots to do this stuff to see what else we got here did you pretty much just all upgrades to your other stuff iron ax great choice ah here we go Huntsman bow this will make a huge difference in your game a lot more damage more rain arrows will fly straighter got iron Tower Shield but we've got other things that we can make that are going to improve our lives so let's check them out all right so one thing we want to do before we really get into making a whole lot of stuff is we are gonna go plant these turnip seeds because we're gonna need them for a very important item all right you got six seeds so that is six turnips now well this Grill will go on and make some new things okay so one of the cool things you make is a stone cutting table I'm gonna slap this down right here it takes 10 wood two iron four stone and to be near a workbench so by setting this down this will give us a new option we take the hoe and right click you'll now have the option here paved Road so just by clicking the ground rather than smoothing the dirt or flattening it out well actually like this Stone path look at that kind of bringing civilization to our front door okay so some of the other items we can make with the stone cutter other than just Stone pads in the building section you're going to see really stone walls we've got a stone wall one by one Stonewall two by one and that'll snap together with the other one you're gonna rotate a little snap The Stonewall 4x2 so now we can make castles the stone pillar also snaps and Stone Arch oh of course there's nothing to support it so it broke let's try it this way ah look at that also these Stone stairs and then the stone floor so we're gonna slap Stone forward there and then you can make more stairs go up even higher so on and so forth and while we're at it let me go ahead and drag over the forge and I'll show you some of the other things with it all right so let's get our Forge down and that's going to open up the other options here the Iron Gate you can also do cage floor age wall age well one by one and the cage floor two by two look at this two I'm gonna send this thing now real quick I want to show you something kind of cool you can make if you've seen my video before trog doors world I took you to a buddy of mine's world uh where he just enjoys building things in the game and through him I learned something pretty cool and crafty if you ever want to have the fire indoors for like effect just grab it either the two by two floor or the one by one depending on you know how big of a fireplace you want lay that in the ground or here in like this wooden frame and then you can place a fire right on top of it and so you can have the campfire indoors uh right on you know wood floor if you want you just raise it up using one of these grates right here and uh oh it makes for pretty cool decoration now that that right there may not be the coolest maybe you don't like that one um but you could use beams instead depending on what you like the looks of no actually I like that with both I'm gonna go ahead and play this with it I like it that was a happy accident in crafting right here the Iron cooking station but that now man that seems so cool yet but if we go to miscellaneous and we picked the hearse we put that under it and we toss some wood in it oh ha ha look at that now let's say we just got back from hunting uh serpents and we interact with cooking station oh look at that throwing up some serpent meat yeah you want to eat good eat serpent anyway so the cooking station that holds five things at a time and actually can cook larger Meats like this which the normal cooking position cannot do very handy now another great upgrade that you can now make and help of iron is a reinforced chest it's so much nicer looking and so much more storage check this out look at that so normal chest we got 10 slots check this puppy out 24 slots more than double so it looks nicer it holds a lot more we can replace all these ugly wooden chests with reinforced chests also option to make a personal chest a personal chest is one that only you can open it is a much smaller storage area which is six but it does give you a little bit of privacy that looks kind of cool now another item we can make that's useful for both storage and decoration uh is the armor stand found on our furniture tab on here armor stand a little nub on it holds a shield that's the back of it so we're gonna rotate that away from us and place that right there and then you can move the armor up here or action slot and then it's hitting the number that corresponds with the piece you want to put on there uh like five or press five on the keyboard six seven eight and while I am naked I now have all my armor right here and then just to interact with it takes it all off the stand and another item that we can make in the furniture tab is the standing iron torch just takes two iron two resin to be near a forge and that is a much nicer torch to decorate with there are different colors as you find stuff like right here with the guck we can make a green one and there are other colors that you can get from unlocking different recipes all right so for the next upgrade we are gonna need these turnips that we planted okay so one of the best upgrades you're going to be able to do once you get back from the swamps once you've collected the turnip you're gonna be able to get the spice rack now we need to mount the spice rack so we're just gonna grab a wood beam one meter and we're gonna put it oh I guess right about there okay then we've got a crafting and we picked the spice rack and we're just gonna put it right the bottom of that there it hangs you need to give it something to hang on and we're just gonna hang it directly right there with the fire you could put up higher you put on the side maybe where you want of course but I'm probably gonna move that but for now what that does is that gives us access to new recipes look at that as you get closer sausages is one of them that's one of the best thing food recipes in the game at least up until in game so let's take a look over here we can now make black soup which gives us 50 health and 17 stamina we can make the muck Shake which is 16 health and 50 stamina and look we get the Ooze from the swamps other than that's just berries real easy to make turnip stew of course the turnips throw some more meat in there with three turnips and we've got 55 stamina and 18 health once you kill a wolf you can make some wolf jerky and that's fire right there that's 33 both health and stamina okay but the one that you're excited about is sausages so with four entrails that drop from the jogger and a bore meat a little sprinkled and Thistle and you have an awesome meal 55 Health 18 stamina last 25 minutes and you get four of them so that is a favorite of mine and now it's time to build our new ship the long ship with 100 iron Nails 10 deer hide 40 fine wood 40 ancient bark and a workbench nearby we can make the fastest ship currently in the game now I say fastest it's not the most agile or quick turning but once you get some wind on your sails and get moving puppy Cooks take her out to see so you can see it yourself all right get it with the weather we can really get moving now on top of being the fastest ship and obviously the largest she got all kinds of storage space look at this I could also take the most damage so if you were gonna go serpent hunting this is the ship you really want it can be done in a carve I oftentimes will hunt in a car but ultimately for your safety and to get out to sea and back to shore uh quickly this would be the one I recommend uh this is probably the best ship in the game generally speaking the carb is more agile and actually the carb is faster if you're at on gear one you're just paddling your way through it the carve is actually faster when it comes to sailing yeah there's nothing even close to the long ship okay you're gonna need to make a choice whether you want to upgrade your boat yet or not you see the route we're going to take against bone mass is to basically get up high and shoot him to death well he's so resistant to damage that it takes a lot of arrows to kill him it's easy to do but it takes some time and it takes so many arrows that you're gonna need to repair your bow mid fight so if you keep the fine with bow you only need to bring a crafting table with you to the fight but if you upgrade it beyond that like to the huntsman's bow you're going to need to bring a forge as well because you can only repair it on a forge due to its metal content and the Hudson bow will serve you well in fact either bow will it's completely up to you I highly recommend using an upgraded bow because it's going to save you arrows and time against the boss plus it's going to save your life you know in innumerable encounters okay to upgrade to the Huntsman bow we need 10 fine wood 20 iron 10 feathers and two deer hide which we happen to have so we're gonna go ahead and craft that excellent now we're gonna need good arrows it's completely up to you what arrows you want to use but understand that bone mass can resist almost all forms of damage and so most arrows well they're they're close to worthless really in fact the only arrow that's very effective against bone mass is the frost Arrow but you don't unlock that until the mountains and I want to kind of avoid anything mountains related until we you know cross that bridge in the future so we're gonna play this out with what can only be found up to this far in the game and that means we're going with iron arrows and I'm gonna make a lot of them because I'm not sure how many it's gonna take typically I use Frost arrows for this but by the time we kill them in this video we're both gonna know about how many iron errors it takes to kill bone mass so let's get to making some arrows all right [Music] okay so before we head out let's make sure we have everything we need we have our bow leveled up once we have our arrows 300 of them this is start we've got our materials for our Forge as well as 10 extra wood for the crafting table we've got good food 10 withered bones to some in the boss and then I've got a couple stacks of wood and the cargo hold of the carve that way we can build the structure that will be killing bone mass from once we get there so looks like we're ready let's head out and once and for all put an end to the nauseous rain of bone mass here we are this is what the bone mask spawner looks like just a giant skull with like a bubble in mouth kind of cool kind of unique for the game I dig it so if we want to summon bone mass we just have to sacrifice the tin withered bone onto this altar but first we need to establish a base this base is going to be up high because we're going to get above our bone mass can attack us and we're just going to shoot into death and this turns one of the most difficult boss fights into one of the easiest I'm gonna clear out the enemies here and then I'm going to start hauling in wood from the boat and put our home together okay guys let's do this all right so we have to The Boiling death and we offer item 10 with it bones and then we quickly make our way we're gonna go and watch him spawn real quick oh there he is not so tall you go to primator Affordable shorter okay now we'll just wait till he works his way over here assuming he works his way over here yeah he's coming I see that look at Honor on the roof there we got skeletons and a blob trying to get to us that is the importance of a roof well he might take him a little while so we'll just start shooting him right through here got my wrong arrows but that did such a small amount to him it really won't count all right we got the right arrows this time 300 of them got bone mass in our sights let's go ahead and see how many errors it takes oh this will take all 300. well guys anytime I've ever done this method it was using Frost arrows which is his weakness but for this I really wanted to keep the method within the range of what you've discovered so far and not going the next biome and sadly he is just far too resistant to any other kind of Arrow so we're gonna do this to traditional way [Music] all right so let's go ahead and make sure we have all the right supplies everything we need we're with area effect weapon if you haven't found the merchant yet in your world then go ahead and bring the Stag breaker uh the principles will be the same the fight will go the same you'll just do a bit less damage uh if you have found the merchant though then take the time to go ahead and make the iron Sledge uh it's really going to shave off time in this fight beyond that we have the 10 with it bones we need to summon bone mass and then we have our very much needed poison resistance made everything he does is toxic and most the enemies he throws at your toxic and so if we can really minimize that damage and effect on us it's going to be great for us and then also we're also bringing medium healing needs of course recommended but not required uh this is just just in case things go south uh that's really mainly going to be it so let's go ahead and head on out and put an end the bone mass resist Mead 10 minutes 10 minutes of resist here we go [Music] foreign [Music] Mass takes a deep breath and Rears back he's getting ready to do that big toxic gas attack the reason you want the sledgehammer or the Stag breaker for this fight uh primarily is for those abs those extra mobs are trying to jump in on the fight which he summons them a bone mess can't really go up he'll throw things up at you but you can get above him at a certain point he can't really harm you and fix you I don't think we're quite there did you see that slamming his skull here does damage to him not because the skull does but because he's within a range of the area effect so but you do have to watch out for his toxin this toxins obviously you can hurt us with that let me go ahead and fill up a little bit here back to work [Music] keep an eye on that meat resists that poison resist meat it wears out you'll be in big trouble as you can see this is kind of a long fight if you're by yourself much faster with a friend or two already used more healing potions than I expected to I highly recommend if you watch this video to learn this fight you're going to need to be healed pots yourself thank you foreign right there Glover and nasty moving head we just got to clear out these ads like Darlene and head home just come down swinging make sure you're the first to attack can be all you all right on the last swing of the last mob we break our Hammer I couldn't have time that any better all right the bone mass Trophy and more importantly the wishbone [Music] the wishbone is the main reason to kill bone mass that's gonna pretty much open up the whole next generation of technology for you as the next metal that you need to find in the game is silver and that's underground in the mountains but by equipping the wishbone it acts as a metal detector well for really anything valuable so if you approach any buried treasure or valuable metal uh the wishbone will alert You by signaling with rays of light and making an audible noise and the closer you get to the hidden valuables are the more frequent and a higher pitch the alarm gets so when you get to the peak where the noise is the fastest just begin to dig and here we go look at that a muddy scrap pile those are the piles that we found in the sunken crimps that had scrap iron in it well you can locate them actually Outside The Cribs out here in the world uh with the help of the wishbone as they're buried under the dirt in the swap and here we are again ready to hang yet another enemy of opening the wall [Music] so we have the bow Mass forsaken power which makes us resistant to most forms of damage let's go ahead and test it out oh we're 82 damage let them hit him got a 64. all right now we're gonna go ahead and use the Ability start again go from 68 to 63 we only take five damage that time so significant damage resistance which will be a very useful power especially if you're planning going into a very dangerous place and that brings us to the conclusion of this video you now know everything you need to know about the swamps and Iron Age in balheim and with that we can chalk up yet another success you have done well you become a master of yet another domain but this is not the end of your task for there are more lands out there that need retaking for the glory of voting so go forth and Clinton would have rightfully owned take back this land and restore its greatness [Music] [Applause] all right [Music]
