What things would you like to see added in Ashlands or future updates?

Love Valhiem

We have a bustling server, people are knocking incredible builds out of the park and everyone is loving life.

We had a discussion the other day about improvements we would love to see late game in Vanilla Valhiem (our server is cross play with console players so mods are out of reach).

In no particular order,

– An equipable amulet that allows players to travel through portals with Ore and Refined metals, but you cannot equip both it and the Belt at the same time. So you can transport ore and minerals but its still a minor hassle for repeated trips. Its also a high resource cost rare item to craft so.

At end game you want to explore and build mostly so it would allow you to skip some initial base deployment hassle.

– A new boat.

Specifically a boat made of Dark wood or Yggdrasil (to keep that magical mystical vibe) with an Eiter based mechanism on the rear to allow the traversal of the waves without relying on the wind. This would be again late game.

I think this would be cool, it could be the medium ship size, you can even take the onboard storage away and replace it with the Eiter fuel tank that burns through fuel as you go and maybe goes a bit faster then the large boat or the same speed. You run out? your up **** creek without a paddle my friend.

– Stone, Dark wood

Give the same building pieces as marble for stone and the same pieces for Dark wood as normal wood. More creativity will flow with this.

Smooth stone. Like marble but just your bog standard slabs all buffed up.

– The ability for players to sit in the standard cart (when empty). One or two per cart. This will allow us to make the like of team race tracks. Just for the novelty of it or you can cart AFK player while they are off tending to the call of nature or food(whatever it may be).

– More pivot points on build items. While we can get allot done, the Valhiem plus mod allowed for some incredible creations. If we could get this in standard mode it would be ace.

– A Wagon. This can hold a moderate amount of items/resources. But acts as a mobile spawn point for one or two players (ability to attach a lantern would be great as well)

this has perks of being a ready to go outpost, but like any wagon it will be prey for greydwarf and fullings or literally any creature that looks at it wrong.

– Ability to change the size of the area you want to impact with the Hoe when terraforming. This can be a minor annoyance when crafting streets and re implementing grass land when it clips into other places items.

– Paint bombs.

For fun. You already have the basis of it. Kill and greydwarf or a fulling and it leaves a pretty bright splatter everywhere.

I would love to be able to cook up or make paint bombs using particular items/plants for colours to allow players to have little playful fights (the paint would fade out over time)

This would allow people to make mini games akin to Splatoon and the like.

​

Just a couple of ideas i thought had merit and am curious of what people at this stage would love to see added to the game that works within the world of Valhiem.

Things that compliment the Vanilla game.

Mods are always a winner, but alas we may have some time to kill before they are possible for Console players in dedicated servers.
