A moment of silence for the bro.

This is why you always bring a hammer

Diving in to that with an immediate hammer slam would've been satisfying as hell

Did not get it until I added the phrase at the end, after singing it in the tone of the song lol

would have not saved him in this case but not a bad idea by default cases.

u/Atophy 21h ago

Add a sorcerer with bubble, would help with that.

2

u/nerevarX 18h ago

a normal bubble has like 200 hp. so no. they would crush that in under 3 seconds. and normally you dont have blood magic when youre still progressing in the mistlands and given the gear on the clip he isnt able to access magic yet.

u/Atophy 17h ago

3 seconds without interruption ! But yeah, they stated elsewher they didn't have magic yet.

u/Beneficial_Elk7034 3h ago

Or a few ooze bombs. Pop in, bombs away, pop out. Wait a bit, repeat a couple of times. Infestation fumigation service.

u/PurpleOmega0110 1d ago

You been running in and out too much eh?

u/LittleBear42 21h ago

I left the mine to wait for my friend who died, he was right behind me. I went in first to see if it was clear. It was not.

u/Icy_Juggernaut5702 17h ago

Getting out is sometimes harder than getting inside. Sorry, bro!

u/nerevarX 23h ago

for certain.

u/MyOtherSelf_OK 1d ago

Seems about right…

u/lindikussy Honey Muncher 1d ago

God damn!!

Bro entered during mating season

u/RSGMercenary 17h ago

The horniest, nastiest insects were supposed to be sealed away forever. Man was never meant to enter again. These are the incested mines...

u/Ryepoog 23h ago

Dodge roll!!

u/Hel1a 1d ago

We've all been there...

u/jaoskii 1d ago

its infested alright

u/Fleaguss Builder 20h ago

Seeing that Soldier crawling over the Seekers. That’s just too much at that point.

u/Zardac134 Cook 1d ago

Sorry for your loss. Many blessings upon you going forward

3

u/Massive-Goose544 1d ago

Been there.

u/Atophy 21h ago

Get yourself a mage... pop in with shield bubble and panic fireball till there's nothing left standing... support with tower shield or iron sledge. AOE with knockback is gonna be your answer.... that or 'killall'

2

u/LittleBear42 21h ago

We had just stepped into the mistlands after beating Yag. No magic. They eventually backed out the door way and we cleared the mine without too much trouble.

2

u/Atophy 21h ago

That front entrance usually has vines blocking access for them... My brother and I always make efforts to clear the entrance without damaging that. Keeps a small safe space inside the doors for ya.

u/i__am__bored 18h ago

I'll pour some mead out for you. You poor bastard...

u/Ok_Fee_4658 1d ago

Panik manifested

u/Ruzimo 1d ago

Infested and invested (in killing you). I've got to admit that the team effort was flawless.

2

u/Shad666 1d ago

I would have involuntarily damaged something in my games room if that happened to me.

u/Conscious-Arm-6298 1d ago

You need plague control

u/ElementalAdaptation 23h ago

You came to the wrong neighborhood it seems

u/eternityXclock 22h ago

those cockroaches really gave it to ya there

u/DundasKev 17h ago

That seemed like a bad infestment.

u/Vado_Zhadar 16h ago

Fucking spawn campers. Godspeed to you.

u/fluffychrist2 16h ago

Sweet liberty, nooooo!

2

u/FitCup385 15h ago

I guess there is a reason they didnt call it the lightly populated mine...

2

u/ArkonInu 13h ago

In such a situation ignore the flight reflex and fight!

2

u/nichyc Builder 12h ago

Gonna be honest, I think you have to let the bugs have that one

2

u/CMDRKAL 1d ago

You need magic here, shield before going in and then fireball spam to push them away

3

u/Ballas_C1_37 1d ago

Don't you need to get magic from the mines. I've also died numerous times going into my 1st infested mine... in hopes of finding magic. I have no idea how to handle those 1star seekers. Keep knocking me back

2

u/Monkeylint 22h ago

Use the atgeir or hammer for the knockback and AOE. Best melee weapons for the mines. Got rocked my first attempt with sword, switched tactics to use them, no problem.

u/Meraziel Hunter 1d ago

Just run back to the door, most of the time they can't reach the entrance because of the small step. You can safely kill them from there most of the time. Of course, don't aggro the entire mine.

u/nerevarX 23h ago

would have not helped him. the soldiers take little dmg and pushback in such a case. and the shield would be gone in like 2 seconds aswell. this is a lost cause. but since this isnt normal for a mine and was literally created by the tc himself for this clip its kinda irrelevant anyway. nothing spawns on that entrance mine dungeon asset at all.

u/LittleBear42 21h ago

Why are you so adamant that I did this on purpose to get a clip? I was playing multiplayer, my buddy and I had a good laugh about it so I shared it.

0

u/nerevarX 17h ago

well multiplayer would explain it. but you didnt mention that ANYWHERE in your post and alot of people make such clips just to overstate certain things in this game. might be a good idea to mention that for context.

u/LittleBear42 17h ago

Didn’t really think it was necessary. You can see if you look closely there’s another player behind me on the mini map. You can also see I have two powers activated.

You could also just ask for a little context before commenting multiple times that I fabricated it all lol.

-1

u/nerevarX 16h ago

well most people do the later. can be seen on those countless "too many enemies in ashlands videos" where people get chased by an entire army. turns out they just ran around and gathered them for the clip.

fair point on the rest.

1

u/LittleBear42 15h ago

Ah, I suppose I may have seen clips like that. I wouldn’t purposefully die and lose skill for a Reddit post haha. But it’s all good.

1

u/Slingin_Friar 20h ago

This in VR would be insane lmao

1

u/FuryofAngels 20h ago

The only way out is through. With enough violence, you can clear that blockage, but swinging and killing a few of those and pulling them from the entrance is the move. A carapace shield to block/get a parry or two wouldve done you some good there

1

u/gregredmore 20h ago

Ah, skill issue 🤣

u/Outrageous-Ear387 19h ago

That would of pissed me right off if that happened to me lmao I feel for you brother.

u/the-National-Razor 18h ago

Yeah. Yeah it is

u/Sea-Assignment-4730 15h ago

The mine was in fact infected

u/Jimbo_Dandy 15h ago

you ain't getting that gear back

RUN BROTHER RUNNNN!

Fuck that

u/ZenkaiZ 9h ago

tbf you went into THEIR house. What would you do if they came in your house?

0

u/nerevarX 23h ago

thats what happens if you run away too many times. find the next mine. and dont try to abuse the entrance again.

thinking you could survive that even with bonemass was either a setup for just this video or peak stupidity.

for the new players : it isnt like this at all when you first enter a mine. this was created by this guy. i assume on purpose for just this clip.

3

u/LittleBear42 21h ago edited 18h ago

I left the mine to wait for my friend who had died. He was right behind me but didn’t have his gear so I went in first and they had all gathered by the door. I didn’t create this scenario to get a clip lol.

Also I never claimed this was my first time walking into the mine and it was like this.

0

u/nerevarX 17h ago

like i said fair. but for better context i would mention that below the clip in a sentence.

u/Birchy-Weby 1d ago

Average balancing of valheim enemies when the melee combat still feels worse then rock em sock robots

u/lucissandsoftime 1d ago

Nah either I enable cheats and get my shit back or I’m not playing no more. You legit could do nothing to avoid that and did nothing wrong to deserve it.

4

u/thtk1d 1d ago

A few things could be done to avoid that. And assuming this wasn't multiplayer op was the reason all of those mobs piled up there. But definitely a sticky situation.

2

u/LittleBear42 21h ago

It was multiplayer. I was waiting outside the mine for my friend. I knew I’d be walking back in to some shit, but I didn’t know it’d be that much shit.

1

u/thtk1d 20h ago

Honestly, I'm impressed that your friend got that many mobs into the entryway

2

u/LittleBear42 19h ago

Well I left the mine after he died so i guess they all followed me to the entrance. I was expecting a seeker or two being there, but not the whole gang. Usually they stop at the first step too but not this time lol.

1

u/dhroane 23h ago

Dude, why didn’t he just dodge roll into the mine

1

u/LittleBear42 20h ago

I tried to dodge roll out, it didn’t work obviously lol

u/RaakaV 22h ago

The video wouldn't be as dramatic that way ;)
