I used to be starting to despair a bit at discovering The Queen in Valheim. As I discussed final time round, the Ashlands replace modified up the map so the one location I had for her was dangerous. Not solely that, however I started to suspect that the map generated from our world seed was not as correct as I had hoped.
I had been thrashing about, not fairly realizing what was in search of but nonetheless looking for it. I used to be positive it must be considerably distinctive. Then I had a little bit of luck. I used to be clearing out one of many contaminated mines I had discovered whereas looking out and stumbled upon the rune that may reveal the situation of The Queen.
Deep in an contaminated mine
Activating that put a brand new marker on my map. It was north of my present location and it was going to require some crusing to get there. Wanting on the world map web site I selected a course that may get me as shut by water as I may handle.
Although the map on that web site and the in-game world did nonetheless appear to be at odds, I managed to slide round and thru some islands and landed within the neighborhood of the marker.
Crusing to The Queen
This time I had remembered to return to base and swap to the Moder energy, so I may change the route of the wind to hurry my journey, but it surely nonetheless took some time to navigate by the islands round my vacation spot.
Lastly, after two days at sea I made it to some land that was shut sufficient to the market on the map that I knew I ought to be capable of stroll there. Day 631 dawned as I began overland in the direction of the marker.
A brand new day trying to find The Queen
As I got here round a steep outcropping, I noticed one thing that appeared like a constructing. I used to be then beset by seekers, who attacked from the constructing.
Seekers try and waylay my search
I managed to fend off two waves of seekers solely to go across the nook and see my purpose rising up from the panorama, lit by the rosy fingers of the daybreak. The lair of The Queen.
This should be the place
I instantly went up into the construction… and you already know, for all of the looking out I did on-line about the way to discover The Queen, no one appeared to have a pleasant, floor stage view of what I used to be in search of… and put down a crafting bend then constructed a portal. It doesn’t matter what occurred, I needed to have the ability to get again there.
Organising store on The Queen’s doorstep
As talked about within the final put up, I had the sealbreaker wanted to open the door already, so I cracked open the door simply to see what was inside.
The Queen has a dry ice fog machine entering into there I feel…
However I didn’t leap in to interact simply but. First I went again to base, made positive the whole lot was repaired, ate some meals, made positive I had potions readily available, and solely then did I return and step by the door.
Time to go inside
On both aspect of the lobby was a brief tunnel that led right into a tall open space with stair circumstances main up and up.
Type of creepy
There have been some mobs on the primary ground that I cleared out. I had learn that The Queen summons fairly just a few mobs to assist her, so I needed to start out off forward on that. After which I went far sufficient in to set off the boss. The Queen was on her manner all the way down to greet me.
She will be able to’t deal with all of it… or one thing…
She was upstairs however got here on all the way down to get me. I used my bow to get in some early hits, swapping between poison and fireplace simply to see what would hurt her most. So she was just about lit when she made it all the way down to me.
The she summoned extra helpers, I fought with them, getting some blows in on her, earlier than she disappeared again as much as the highest of the steps to come back at me once more. So the bow was out and we carried on.
The Queen on fireplace
The provides made it powerful to get in lots of assaults on The Queen, as did her principal assault which comes with fairly a little bit of knock-back. I did fairly effectively fending her off and getting in a particular assault at times.
I did dies a bit of previous the midway level when she pinned me towards a wall together with her bulk in such a manner that I couldn’t get at her. However dying holds little sting… not since I turned down the dying penalty in any case. So I got here again and went at her once more.
That jogged my memory that I may depart, take a break, then come again in and keep on if I used to be stepping into bother… or if my sword ran down its sturdiness, which it did. So out of the occasion, into the portal and again to base to restore, relaxation up, and return.
Finally I received in that final blow and The Queen was no extra.
The Queen is lifeless, lengthy dwell The Queen… however solely after I get out of right here
Even on the simple setting, that was fairly a battle, although I believe we may have managed it as a bunch on a more durable setting, if solely as a result of it’s pretty straightforward to step out of the occasion to get your self collectively.
As soon as exterior Munin was keen to inform me about the place to go subsequent.
Go south younger viking
However I had issues to do first.
The Queen dropped the majestic carapace that’s the crafting piece wanted for upgrades in addition to her trophy, which I hung up on the stone by our base.
The Queen’s trophy mounted
I had learn that the stone for the Ashlands had been stuffed into the circle reasonably awkwardly, and whoever stated that was appropriate. You possibly can see that stone between The Queen and Eikthyr, prefer it confirmed up late and no one left sufficient house for it.
Oh effectively. The Mistlands are carried out for me for all intents and functions. I had to make use of mods and switch down settings, however I received there.
Now the query is whether or not or not I head to the Ashlands. A part of me appears like I ought to give it a peek. However first I’ve to go construct the Drakkar, the particular boat that may sail by the burning waters across the Ashlands. We’ll see if I’m up for it.
