Weaknesses for Every Mob in Valheim - Tips and Tricks

hey everyone today i'm going to show you weaknesses for each mob in each biome let's get started okay first off deer deer have no weaknesses so the best way to kill a deer is to sneak up on it with a dagger and special attack it or don't have any weaknesses either and you don't have to sneak up on it because it will just come after you so you can pretty much attack it with anything and you want to avoid using fire because they're afraid of fire and they'll just run off making it harder to kill them so gray dwarfs have a weakness to fire they're afraid of it and will run away from you the only attack if they have a ranged weapon and it does a lot of damage to them and there's a tick on it so a couple hits with your torch and you could pretty much fend off a whole pack of gray dwarfs just be ready for when your torch burns out to get another one ready early game i like to carry two or three of them and then of course lastly we have the neck and they are weak to fire and they are resistant to poison and immune to spirit as you can see the necks are also afraid of fire and will run away so i'm gonna let this little guy live because he's just too cute in the black forest you also get gray dwarves but there are two other mobs that you'll encounter here and one of them is the troll troll are immune to spirit resistant to blunt damage but they're weak to piercing so you want to use your at gear or your dagger you can see the damage that ticks off there is yellow signifying a weakness to that damage type if you hit them with your dagger it does slashing and piercing so that's the yellow numbers there and if you can sneak up and backstab them you most likely kill them in one shot in the dark forest you could also encounter skeletons skeletons are resistant to pierce and frost damage and immune to poison they are weak to blunt and fire however they will not run away from fire though but if you want to dispatch them really quickly just switch over to a blunt weapon like a mace and of course if you have the stag breaker hammer it does blunt and piercing damage so against skeletons especially a group of them it does really well even throwing a few gray dwarves there when running around a black forest if you see skeletons usually means that there's a burial chamber nearby after you dispatch them you can go inside and this is where you'll find your first circling cores there'll be more skeletons down here and you might encounter a ghost down here ghosts are immune to poison resistant to blunt slash and piercing and weak to spirit but you're unlikely to have a spirit weapon early in the game so just choose the best damaging weapon that you have and give them the business okay so in the swamp you're going to encounter some new enemies to start off with we've got the blob and they do a lot of poison damage so you want to be ready for that avoid it or have some poison resistance mead but they are resistant to slash piercing and fire and immune to poison but they are weak to blunt and frost so if you have frost arrows you can use those or just whip out a blunt weapon and give them the business okay next up we have the leeches that lurk in the waters and are a little hard to see unless you're looking out for them there you go so they are resistant to poison and they're immune to fire and spirit and stagger effects so besides that you can use any other weapon damage type you want slashing piercing or blunt okay so next up drugger are resistant to fire and immune to poison damage besides that you can use piercing slashing or blunt against them none provide bonus damage okay and then we have the sertlings the fire creatures they are immune to fire poison and spirit damage but they are weak to frost and water so when it comes to attacking them you can use piercing slashing or blunt but if you have frost arrows you can do a little extra damage to them if you can hit them they do move really quickly after they shoot their little fireballs and because they're weak to water you can dig out this area around here and when they spawn they'll drop into the water and instantly die making it easy for you to create a circling core farm okay so next up we have the wraiths and you can see they do fly around they pretty much only appear at night in the swamps and they are resistant to blunt slashing and piercing damage so the three main damage types that you have they are resistant to all of them they are immune to frost and poison but they are weak to fire and spirit so if you have a silver weapon that would be great to use against them for the spirit damage and of course you can whip out the old trusty torch and even though they're resistant to blunt slashing and piercing weapons they don't have a very large health pool so you can take them out pretty quickly with just about any weapon so when it comes to wolves they don't have any weaknesses but they are immune to spirit damage so you can pretty much fight them with any weapon you want okay next up are drakes now they're immune to frost spirit and stagger effects and they pretty much fly around all the time so you can't hit them with a normal weapon anyways but they are weak to fire so you want to have some fire arrows when you're fighting these to be most effective wait for them to stop so you don't waste the arrow and give them the business okay next up are the stone golems they're immune to fire frost poison and spirit damage they're resistant to slash and piercing so you pretty much want to use a blunt weapon on them but if you can you want to use a pickaxe because they are very weak to pickaxes so if you can get on his head and hit him with the pickaxe you see it does yellow damage just watch out when he does the two-hand slam on the ground that's an aoe effect and it will knock you off if you don't jump but as long as you have a high point this really is the easiest way to fight them okay and then next we've got the fen ring and they only come out at night here in the mountains they're resistant to poison but they are weak to fire so you can get a pretty good little fire tick going on them but it doesn't do a lot of damage so pretty much you can just fight them with any weapon you have and lastly we have the planes so when it comes to fuelings they don't have any special resistances or immunities except for spirit damage so one of the best ways to fight them is to sneak up and snipe one of them so you get the bonus damage unless you get both of their attention and if you do you just want to work on your block so you stagger them like that and you can attack them with with any weapon but especially early game the real trick to fighting them is to be able to block well so you stagger them so no special weaknesses with the goblins next up we have the locks now they're resistant to blunt slash and frost so you want to use piercing weapons they're immune to spirit they do have a weakness to fire so one of your best weapons here are the fire arrows and then of course if you can get the first shot off as a surprise attack that'll be your best bet and then after that try to keep that fire tick going you could also backstab them with the dagger and because they take a lot of damage from piercing you can also jump on their backs and hit them with the pickaxe just watch out when they stand on their hind legs you want to jump so you don't take the aoe effect and take damage and get knocked off okay and last up are the death skeetos now they're immune to spirit and stagger effects so the best way to fight them is to just get ready to block them when they come in and then swing at them another effective strategy is to get your bow ready and right when they start to fly in you shoot them with the bow just keep your eye on them and fire pretty much one shot from just about any weapon is going to kill them so don't waste good arrows on them i just make wooden arrows and always have a little bit with me when i'm in the planes okay and then we have the serpent they are resistant to poison immune to fire spirit and stagger effects but they are weak to frost so if you have frost arrows it's really what you want to use here it does quite a bit of damage to them and it slows them down because you can see there and that should do it right there optionally you can use the harpoon and then you can drag this thing to shore and once you get it on shore you can pretty much attack it with whatever you want just make sure you don't drag it onto shore by the planes unless you're ready to fight planes creatures as well so you can drag the serpent onto land and this is the best way to get its scales so they don't drop and sink in the ocean and as soon as i let him go here and start attacking him he's going to try to swim back to the water we'll just drag him inland a little bit more and then you could like i say you could pretty much attack him with any weapon because he's not weak to any in particular weapon or resistance get some serpent me and some serpent scales and maybe a trophy okay i've got some new merch it features original artwork by the very talented comic book artist joseph bloss link in the description all right i hope that was useful that's it for now have fun out there you
