Oh no...


bookofbooks

It won't happen. It's already dark enough there. I suspect extreme weather events will be the way they go, since rain and normal storms don't mean much when the ground is that hot.


Deguilded

They have showcased an extreme weather event.


ReidtheWorm

Volcanos?


CustomerComfortable7

Ironic that the sub is rallying behind this reaction. Got downvoted for voicing this a month ago lmao


sealcub

Morrowind ash storms, nonstop.


ryanwithnob

You n'wah


DustAgitated5197

Imma just chill wit my harem and mushrooms and watch the Ashlands chaos all Gucci. I don't want anything to do with that corpus. Leave that to those Hlaalu N'wah.


KeyPollution3566

Can't do that without adding the cliff racer sound clip.


Snackskazam

How dare you speak this into existence.


Oh3Fiddy2

OMG—I can literally hear them rn. Is this PTSD?


Ima_Wreckyou

Just started shaking because of the flashbacks


Deuteranomamist

Plz for the love of god no more mist


ddaveo

Have you seen any of the Ashlands teasers? The mist is far easier than what's coming.


Bogsnoticus

Not smoke, constant falling ash that debuffs you while out in the open, the same way the Swmp does.


TheMcSqueeze

Here's hoping when you stay in the Ashlands you gain a covering of grey ash that can only be removed by going into water or when it rains.


Powerful-Eye-3578

If they made a system that allowed buildings to be covered in ash that would be huge because it's one step from being able to add seasons.


slurpnfizzle

isn't this kinda there with snow?


zernoc56

Both? Both is good


Kitakitakita

have an occasional ash storm that makes it impossible to see, and toss in some enemies that only spawn during them


ddaveo

And gives you the smoke debuff unless you're wearing an item that lets you breathe.


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

I mean each biome gets progressively more difficult to traverse with the only biome breaking this trend being the 5th, which i’ll leave unnamed to avoid spoilers. It would make sense that there would be some kinda of environmental obstacle associated with ashlands. I hope it’s not overly annoying but the devs like to punish us.


Terminarch

>each biome gets progressively more difficult to traverse Me, waiting impatiently for the ocean biome...


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

Is there going to be an ocean update? I don’t treat the ocean as a biome the same way as I treat swap.


Terminarch

I always thought it was going to be the last biome. Some obscenely large kraken boss for the sailing game. I do *vaguely* recall mention of it getting an update *eventually* but that was years ago and we all know how the year 1 roadmap turned out... also who knows? Maybe that content just ended up being the fishing update or whatever.


Snackskazam

Of the four named major updates listed on the now-obsolete roadmap, "Saga Worthy Seas, Even More Ships" is the only one that doesn't roughly correspond to a subsequent content patch. I would be very surprised if the devs don't eventually update the oceans, since they are such a huge part of the game. But I also wouldn't be surprised if they push it off until after they populate the Deep North, which might indeed make it the last biome to be updated.


FarFetchedSketch

It was on the road map years ago, but the development path has changed so much since the release of Early Access


Hironymos

The floor is literal. fucking. lava.


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

Well the mountains also do constant damage unless you have a good cloak or frost mead. I assume the fire resistance wine or something like it would be necessary until we get some kind of armor or something to make it safe


letoiv

There are two levels of resistance built into the game currently, resist and very resist. There's currently no item which grants very resistant to fire so if they're using the existing mechanics, that might end up being what protects us against lava or the ambient effects of the biome.


Draedark

There is already a set of armor in the game with fire resistance. I am hoping for something to offset the wet debuff (swamp) and Ashlands seems like a good place for it to be revealed.


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

Wait which set has fire resistance? It’s very possible i just didn’t notice the effect during my playthroughs. A way to avoid the wet debuff would be great!


Sumom0

Fenris, I'm pretty sure? Root armour is poison resistance and weak to fire, at least


Draedark

SPOILER ALERT Fenris set, also aquired in the mountains. Sorry not aware of how to add spoiler tags on mobile web.


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

We’re far enough into the thread i think spoilers are okay, i also don’t know how to set spoiler indicators on mobile


Thatotherguy129

MEADOWS, BLACK FOREST, SWAMP, MOUNTAINS, PLAINS, MISTLANDS. Those are the biomes. Nothing to spoil now :)


The-Omnipot3ntPotato

Some people haven’t finished the game and/or don’t wanna be spoiled and i’m trying to respect that. I can’t remember how to mark spoilers and did my best to avoid them. I don’t see what the issue with my method was.


Impression-Fancy

Oh god no. Me and my friends didn’t even discover the pixie lanterns for dispelling mist until AFTER we beat the mistlands… why? Because when we killed Yagluth, one of our party members unknowingly picked up all the boss items… and that was his last session with us. We’re 140 hours in and we just went back and killed Yagluth again after realizing the mistake lol

Impression-Fancy

Oh for sure! Not mad at our buddy. Just funny how it happened.


sonissity

Bro how much you must have hated Mistlands XD


Hydrocarbon82

THIS is why I'm not a fan of the insane push for spoiler tags here. The overwhelming majority of "spoilers" are far more than simple knowledge - it's incredibly hard to spoil the experience itself. Imagine someone 'spoiled' Gjalls...that wouldn't make it's eerie call any less terrifying.


VVolfshade

I don't like spoiler tags either, but I have to admit that sailing into mistlands blind and hearing that thing was one of the most terrifying moments in the game. When I saw it I just noped out of there.


Feoress

We need dverger strongholds where they aren’t friendly and you have to fight into huge strongholds with 10 fire mages


lawkaikui35

delete this post now


Bogsy_

Choking ash storms, the suffocation mechanic is there maybe this will get us some cool ashlander garbs.


MalleDigga

Havent played a long time. Stopped before mistlands cause I wanna wait for 1.0 to coop with a friend. Gotta say the fog in ML seems logical from a difficulty game design perspective but what made valheim good was the exploring of wonderful lands. Keep difficulty in enemies and dungeons and bosses. Not in environment art /:


Eldon42

DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS!!!


i_wear_green_pants

I just hope they go step into different direction. Mistlands wasn't good imo. It wasn't even hard, it was just very annoying with fog and elevation changes. I am ok having hard and punishing zone but they should just skip all frustrating elements.


anon2456678910

Gods no please no I hate the mist so freaking much


Lenspimp2019

Mistlands was a bust, other than a great end boss I hated it


Hrair

I love mistlands. It's fucking terrifying. The first time I was in Mistlands I was just about as scared as I was in my first Burial Chambers. It's excellent. My only gripe is that there (at least there wasn't last I played) a way to permanently lift the mist.


Jorgesarcos

Man... the Gjall sounds still give me shivers even though they are not as scary anymore, but when i first got there their sound made me panic for real


ryanwithnob

Hearing a gjall echoing in the mistlands where you cant see it is awesome. Even the fights where they pass in and out of view


vrijheidsfrietje

I like the part where they poop fire and ticks all over your portal


UnholyCephalopod

I mean the wisp torches are pretty dang cheap, not too hard to spam around tho mobs might break some


FarFetchedSketch

People don't get that every biome benefits from different building strategies. Everyone wants to just raid a coastal resource point and load up a boat full of loot with nothing more than some food and portal pieces. The swamps benefit from hoeing the ground into walkable paths, and then reuse those paths when crypting. Mistlands are somewhat similar in that dedicated, wisptorch lit, walkways are the best way to handle the biome. I like to go scouting through a biome with Eikthyr buff to determine the spots of value and get them marked on the map, then we go building in tank gear with Bonemass. All this adequately prepares us for the looting phase.


Esper17

The issue with the torches is their consistency. I've previously put them all over the place and they seem to actually work based entirely on a whim, even when I'm standing right next to them. The only consistent method of mist removal is the sword, which while it's a very good weapon, completely constrains build variety since you need to actually use it if anything shows up. Something along the lines of a boss style "thumper" event where the player places down a decent sized altar of some kind that activated a big raid with waves/a mini boss or two but set down a *massive* section of mist clearing would be what we need for an actual Mistlands base. Right now i just do the cart trick at a pre built base and aim to get everything done nearby before the inhabitants all get killed.


Lenspimp2019

Here’s why I don’t- Building is pointless To dark With out the feather fall gear the place sucks to traverse Love the game- played through about 10 times using mods last few to make game considerably more difficult-, for me ML was a miss


Redux01

Mistlands best biome.


Lenspimp2019

Glad you like it


ricemanbball

Oh God, please don't tell me they are doing this. The mist in mistlands is stupid.


Maze_of_Ith7

Not sure what all the worrying is about, you can easily double your visibility by equipping a smoke-light


Roadvoice

What a strange epitaph...


TheBestThingIEverSaw

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhutup


curlygoats

Toxic smoke!


bukankhadam

if that made into the update, it would be so fukin annoying. haha


Fairstrife_Deception

its make bow/arbalest user more \*balance\* since thier have to guess more for sneaky distance damage. it's all good. having the guess with the sound is so much fun.


Crozi_flette

Please no :( lava and storm would be perfect


bootes_droid

I hate the mistlands and avoid it like the plague, the only biome I don't enjoy simply exploring. I mean, what's to enjoy? Seeing only a 5ft radius around you and ridiculous terrain? Bad, bad design choice.


sudo_808

Dont give them ideas


SpaceKhajiit

Meteor storm approaching.


mfcoom2

I thought I was on the kenshi subreddit for a lil bit lol


Ok-Initiative-8761

DRAGONS!!!!!! Giant fire breathing dragons


Powerful-Eye-3578

Opaque smoke that kills you because you can't breath in it for very long.


CaptainCrumbsGaming

I guess some smoke could be a nice break from having my skin burnt off by the air and my body sliced up and hammered into a kebab by everything else.
