Title says it all, just rolled a new seed and found my early axes. What do you guys find? Do they outperform flint and bronze axe? Keep both?

I’ve never used magic before, I’m currently standing infront of twig giving him the coldest days of his life with the frost staff.

Is this the fastest way to level elemental? I heard the golem but my understanding is it not the same or does magic actually account for damage done rather than number of hits?

I plan to do the swamp method for blood magic

I’m progressing through the mistlands and just unlocked the Galdr table. I’m playing solo on vanilla settings and am debating if I should invest in switching to a mage build. Is this needed for late game / ashlands? Or is “normal” / melee build still viable for ashlands?

so last night me and my partner went to find some soft tissue in the mistlands to upgrade our gear and also for me to go full mage build while he tanks lol

we came across this dvergr mine(?) or settlement (not the camp one) where usually there would be soft tissue in that spot.

so we're on top of it and he went "wait can i mine this? *proceeds to bonk before I could tell him no"

and alas, hell went loose and he got one shotted by a crossbow dvergr from the back. and of course, being of the same kind, they also went after me!

idk how i managed to dodge everything, from vaulting out of the fence to running up towards places they (hopefully and thankfully) did not reach.

oh and after that i told my partner to save and log out for now while we planned what to do next lol cuz wym HE WANTS ME TO GO BACK THERE AND LURE A GJALL TO KILL THEM

sooo i did sum research if he can do some dev commands to revert it back to the previous day — doesnt work cuz the character is separate from the world save

then I remembered that one yt video about setting the world to Passive so no mob will attack you unless you attack them first. We gave it a shot (to my partner's grumbling, cuz we we're playing hard mode) but I was still skeptical because what if the aggro was still there :')

anyway long story short they didn't kill me yay! and i set up a portal for my partner to go through and come back to get his stuff.

and apparently we went through all that, just to realize there's no soft tissue in a RIBCAGE

:D

The other day, I put the wishbone in my inventory & went searching all the mountains I had portals near for silver. Nothing. Nada. Zilch...... for what felt like hours....

Only to realize I hadn't actually equipped it..
