There you will encounter dangerous little goblins. Once you have crafted some iron gear you will be able to manage the plains even though it’s after the mountain biome in terms of progression. We were lucky it didn’t end up in the ocean. We tried throwing it down the mountain while encumbered and do not recommend that strategy 😅 the ore will sort of bounce when it hits the bottom of the cliff and can travel further than you’d expect. Silver is extremely dense and will weigh you down very quickly.

Look for the biggest mountain you can find because it’s rare and you will want to avoid lots of sailing. You can enter the Silver Age with the same smelting setup as the Bronze Age, but going further you’ll need a new structure.Īfter you’ve defeated Bonemass, you want to head into the mountains and start mining silver. A standard setup will have some Charcoal Kilns, Smelters, and a Forge with some upgrades. You will need to smelt all ores that you collect in Valheim before you can craft items with them. Smelting is the process of melting down ores and forming them into generic useable bars. It’s common to spend many hours within one tier as you improve your equipment and rise to the new environmental challenges. The technological leap from one metal to the next is huge and gives you access to more powerful and unique equipment, vehicles, and structures. You will need to defeat the Bosses in Valheim to get the items needed to gather the next tier of metal. Metal is the main progression material in Valheim, reaching the next tier of metal is challenging and very rewarding.
