  • I have over 1000 hours in Valheim. Had no idea about this. Thanks for the tips. Subbed.
  • @samwisegalenorn
    I wrote a C# program that intercepts keystrokes and performs specific key combos on time. I mapped the Q key to perform a forward roll, and the Z key to a left roll. I'll have to map these key combos to my program. To note: My dexterity is bad due to neurological issues, so I have to do this to play games in general.
  • @skinner3574
    Finally someone is takling about this!!! I legit though I was the bolt one who knew about these and you even shower me some I didnt even know
  • @redz3839
    "sad Atgier sounds" really felt that
  • @a_pirate1434
    This is so awesome! I’ve gotten to the Mistlands and never known this existed, I’ll need to try it out. I wish you had something to diagram what mouse buttons/keys you’re clicking when, but how you worded it will probably make more sense when I do it myself!
  • @arcanapluvia8627
    Very cool video! There are some trickier secondary combos with the knife as well - if you wait a bit before holding down the power attack button, you get a six-hit combo that does 1,1,1,3,3,3, similar to the sword's secondary power combo with an extra hit. There's also a super-efficient four-hit combo with three triple damage hits (1,3,3,3) but I can't figure out for the life of me how to do it reliably. Since you're skilled enough to pull off the jump power combo (which I'm horrible at) I bet you could do those just fine.
  • @CaptainGrogg6109
    i watched a video like this a while ago but i thought it was click bait as when the person started the video he didnt specifie that it was more of an exploit rather than an intended mechanic so thought it was click bait when i tried it not realising how difficult it is.
  • @valegrumby
    So i was doing some testing. You can actually start the primary and secondary combos another way. No need for block, jump, or crouch. Just start with 1 single primary swing. Then go into the combo with Block + Primary, then secondary and dodge spam (for big bigga boom combo) just like you would normally do for the combos. It means you can run at enemies and initiate attacks without having to block or jump first.
  • the trick with using emotes to spam attacks might be faster dps wise than even the sword spacecancel combo, does drain your stamina super quick tho
  • @baza7a26
    i barely write comments but hell yeah dude thats what i was looking for! Subscribed from now on. Be well and keep the good work brotha
  • @Shazoo1997
    Damn that's pretty cool, I've mastered it quick. Skoll and Hati is pretty insane with the secondary power combo. Almost like a Elden Ring power stance combo.
  • @IrithyllNorth
    i have 500 hours in this game and never knew this existed lol
  • @tehszeki6669
    Amazing video, but a very important piece is missing. In a solo world these are friggin hard to pull off and can easily lead to death especially if there are more than one enemy which is true most of the time. On the other hand if you play coop these combos are overwhelming when someone else has the aggro of mobs. Thanks for the cool breakdown of every combo!
  • @humanprobably
    Some stuff i learned while trying this out: 1. if you hold block, primary attack, and secondary attack and the hold w and spam dodge, you do an extra 2 triple damage swings that can be chained together (sword only). 2. with most weapons, if you hold primary and secondary attack at the same time while having almost no stamina, you continuously do an attack that deals no damage and you have complete movement control during. 3. My friend can do an animation cancel that lets him do triple damage sword swings faster than the knife can attack, but wont tell me how. Edit: he told me how, you need to bind dance to something, then spam whatever you bound dance to while tapping sword secondary attack, and with good timing, you can swing very fast
  • @whoknows4780
    I used these with my solo run using knives. That’s where I got the most practice, but I really only did the jump combo consistently. I need to try the other ones
  • @2v10Gaming
    I'm glad to see a more in-depth guide to these techniques. I keep trying to find more interesting mechanics in Valheim, and this was my biggest find. It's a shame the new dual-axes in the Ashlands work so poorly with this combo, though I highly recommend using the dual knives from Mistlands with it. You can get some ridiculous damage numbers if you get the timing right.
  • @jantokar9211
    Nice work, bro. Is cool, bad too risky,. If you a at swamps, around a potential mutch moor mobs and combo feld, you are a second death. I have a normal combo in with the Love. :D
  • Something worth noting and revisiting is the Krom and potentially other slower weapons if any came out in ashlands. Holding the attack buttons was never REALLY part of the equation and more to add simplicity. Attempting to do a regular power combo with the Krom while tapping to attack instead allows you to negate the slow windup of the first attack for a bit of extra DPS. effectively allowing you to do 2 fast hits into the third hit instead of having to restart the combo.
