So being hunted means innocence lost forever
So I was having rather an easy time of the mountains in full iron gear and then upgrading to silver. Even two wolves posed very little problem as long as I got my blocks off, and for the most part I'd hear them howling beforehand anyway so I was rarely caught off guard. Then just as I was caught in an awkward position in a ravine, trying to hop my way out, I 'got hunted'. Dear Lord.......... my buff from sausages was running out so I wasn't even at full 'swamp food' level. I always pack carrot soup, black soup and sausages for the mountain biome and up till now it's been more than sufficient.

So let me get this right............... these buggers can gank me anytime anywhere ? I'm in the habit of traipsing about the meadows looking for mushrooms and wood on only some deer meat and maybe some honey. Sometimes I don't even bother with that. So from now on no matter where I am I have to be incredibly well fed and be carrying all my best gear ? Crap.

I have no concerns about wolves attacking my base as they can't get in but getting murdered in the open like that at random isn't the most attractive proposition.

I wonder with enough stamina if the two handed mace might be a viable option ?

Beyond the Wolves themselves, Bonemass is the hidden culprit here though. No other boss in Valheim causes more raids when other criteria are met, setting off a chain of raids to follow on said world. Draugr & Skeletons pre Bonemass, Skeletons, Blobs, Bats & Wolves after he is slain.

Frostner works great on wolves but I am fond of the sword if it is well leveled. It hits multiples without parceling out the total damage, dividing it between hits therefore making it weaker. And it uses less stamina. But more than one weapon works so it's all good. You can get into trouble with the atgeir but that's true with any of them.

Killing Bonemass is really a game changer. You do get the wolf shank delivery program but bats are problematic if you don't know the drill. Rest are all fine though.

Last run through I did the mountains were lousy with golems. I ended up with 6 trophies, which was by far the most I have ever gotten. I would have 2-3 golems active within a smallish area. I swear every time I went around a corner there was another one. First 5 frost caves all had fish flinging themselves on the shore. But that was a fabulous seed and had great resources and very little boat travel needed.

My gift to you all. Enjoy.
