And putting items in the chest means you won't lose them when you die. In co-op, it's a good way to share resources with your fellow Vikings, too. Each time you visit your village, dump your haul (select Place All) in the huge war chest located on the east side of the village, near the repair bench.Īnything in the war chest can be used by village NPCs for crafting-you don't need to have the resources in your personal inventory for them to be used. (Though, pleasantly, you'll keep your weapons and gear when you die.) So you don't want your inventory to be jam packed with resources in case you get killed. When you're killed out in the world, you'll drop your resources where your body falls and you'll have to travel back to collect them. You can kite enemies around and have them knock down trees while they're chasing you. And some enemies do damage to the environment while they're attacking or chasing you, particularly the bigger ones like ogres. Swinging a sword with a normal attack won't damage trees, but your alternate attacks will (by right-clicking). But there are other ways to chop down trees in a pinch. If you're out gathering wood by chopping down trees and your axe breaks, you should get back to your village to repair it or craft a new one. There's more than one way to chop down a tree If you see what looks like lots of small rocks in a river, that indicates you can cross the water at that spot. It's pretty funny! Even the mightiest giants have to walk around water, rather than through it. I've seen plenty of monsters rolling to dodge my attacks and winding up killing themselves in the water. On the plus side, monsters can't swim, either. Luckily you're prevented by an invisible barrier from running straight into the water and drowning, but you can enter the water accidentally by rolling, such as if you're dodging attacks or rolling off clifftops. Your Viking, unfortunately, can't swim (and there are no Viking ships), so treat that water like lava because it'll instantly kill you. You can't swim-but monsters can't eitherĪs you uncover more of the map, you'll find rivers and beaches and the large bodies of water surrounding the continent. The shrine in your village is already activated, so you can use it to travel to any other shrine you've activated in the world, and there's no limit or cooldown on how often you can use shrines. Then you just need to click on another active shrine to be teleported to it. Pressing F on an activated shrine will open your map. Activating it won't actually make you fast travel, it'll just unlock that shrine as a fast-travel location you (and any other players you're playing with) can use whenever you want.
