The Best Way To Farm Flametal In Valheim Ashlands Update

the Catapult is very effective in the Plains biome actually. Fuling camps are basically the perfect target for our new siege weapon. Enough range that the goblins won't be able to trace the attack back to you, enough damage to basically level their village, and strong enough to cause AOE damage against multiple mobs. I tested it myself and I erased two fuling bases easily, as in completely wiped out, not a single structure left standing and all goblins dead. If you're farming for blackmetal/coins or if you simply have a Hateboner for them fulings (like I do), then the Catapult is your best friend.

Flametal math-y goodness.

The catapult is always the safe way for me to attack the fortresses as well as to destroy upgraded spawners in search of dyrnwyn fragments

:yougotthis: Thx for the info i was skeptic towards the catapult.

Lol. “Lava dog”

Great work as always.

i like to see a Little Ashlands gameplay series of you after launch. i enyoed them very much three years ago

does flamemetal ore chunks respawn or you need keep finding new ones ?

If you want a easy early flametal, just follow the coast and look for dwermer save areas. Bait the mobs so they kill the dwarfs and get the metal from boxes.

Honestly, i only needed to farm a couple pillars at most. One fortress i got 2 and a half stacks from one chest. Though i can't lie, the catapult is pretty underwhelming for actually destroying the gates for the fortress', rather finicky and many times i had to walk up to check if the gate was destroyed or not, at which point i could just use the battering ram. Catapult are cool nevertheless, but finicky.

2 health and 1 stam food is not as bad as you think, with flametal armor you can survive several seconds of being in lava by constantly jumping (feather cape helps, also fire res to combat the burning effect). Very useful to pick up the flametal from lava.

I've been to 5+ fortresses in clearing them all out slowly but surely that didn't have any metal, OR gems in them. The fortresses are sometimes very stingy on what they give.

I have almost zero luck getting the ore to pick up on the lava dog. Maybe 15% of them at best. Thought it was a weight issue, hoping a large number of the ore had combined into a stack of multiple ores and were just too heavy for me to pick up, but used basalt bombs to hop out and pick them up and they were all singles. Given how much extra trouble it can be to get the lava dog out there, it just doesn't seem worth the trouble. Basalt bombs and hop around in the feather cape.

For mining.....Lol.The catapult is the "best" transportation method . You can fling yourself across oceans wearing a feather cape!

Dear firespark, where did you get the image for "I must have it all"

Have you tried to freefly into/below the lava to see what it looks like below the surface?

can you reach ashland with long boat...??? any new sequence break with this biome?

Nice video

I got a lot from before ashland dropt, but it dont seam to do enything ... what am i missing ??

Maybe it's a bug, but I just go back and mine more after it comes back out of the lava, right where I left off. (Self-hosted dedicated server via steam, no mods or crazy settings.)
