To flatten ground completely, in most cases, you need the hoe AND the pickax. Going back and forth between those two tools I have flattened large areas perfectly.

Hoe level to the height where your character is. When you know this, the hoe work just fine.

Depending on how big you want to make it, you can build a small structure off the ground. You just need to give it some supports. Once you've unlocked iron, you can make a stonecutter and place stone ..

Place a vertical beam, then place two horizontal beams. You can then place a vertical beam below the horizontal beams. All on the same level. Just make sure they all touch ground. You can then later f..

You don't have to put your floors on the ground, but they do need to be supported in some way.I often put my starting shack up on a rock for the extra defense, then put the fire on the rock. Is the fi..

You can definitely build elevated structures. Maybe experiment a bit more? Try using vertical beams as 'legs' for example.

I'm loving this game, but I'm having the same trouble sometimes. I find a good area with nodes decently close, but all of the terrain is hilly/rocky and uneven. I'm still enjoying the game and trying ..

most love the building system in Valheim. You dont have to use the ground as a floor. If you want it perfectly level make a stone block or wood floor. Valheim is one of the few games that let you true..

It's not the mining that's the problem, it's the transportation!

Hasn't changed. But there are mods for that. I agree that pounding on scrap piles in the dark isn't exciting game play, especially with how much iron you will need. (I increased the iron drop rate in ..

If the mining part was bad enough for you to deter you from the game, this hasn't change and won't most probably.

You can leap and swing for uphill targets. The timing is a nit tricky. You can swing the pick against down hill targets. Bow even at melee range works for both.

Heavy attack with mace is the answer. Works on downhill at least. Uphill is a 50/50

For bows and other ranged weapons you need to take into account the point from which the arrow is loose. There are mods that "fix" the targeting somewhat but not the loose point.Attacking up..

weapon skills over 50 really neutralizes the so-called 'stamina problem' where people run out in fights due to low skill and heavy draining weaponry. 75 is even better, but now you are talking a lot o..

I think the skill drain is a decent punishment for death, and if it bothers you so much you should try and get good enough at the game to not die.

I totally agree. That's why I use a mod called "Item_Stand_All_Items" which gives me the freedom to do so :) You can also get pretty creative with using Dragon Tears and Torn Spirits

Unused Surtling Core were meant to put in a fire not on a item stand.

Turn it into a weapon then put it on a stand.

Aiming up or down with bows in steep angles is a bit wonky, I don't think there's anything else to do about that except experiment and practicing so you can learn how to compensate to get the proper a..

You can solve this by using Iron Sledge. It has a wide damage area both horizontally and vertically.

There's less of mining in the more advanced biomes. Forest to mountain are the most intensive ones.

I like the carting part actually. It's the digging part that's tedious iirc.

You can always do a server hop with your ore and than use a portal if you can't be bothered to move it by a ship/cart. It is technically cheating but at the end of the day, it's not a big deal and it ..

We built roads etc, that part was enjoyable (once). The actual mining part was not at all. Shame to hear it hasn't changed. Thanks for the replies!
