Iron armor - iron weapons
Root armor -bronze weapons
troll armor - anything left up
The only thing that OP should be lacking is a decent shield for troll armor but otherwise that's backup, and backup for that.

Those mountains can be menacing! Just taking my first steps there myself. No onions, silver, golems nor obsidian but 2 good eggs :steamhappy:
Have done many naked corpse runs, some of them actually paid off. With sausages, deer meat, honey and eikthyr power one can do some daring dashes into mountains before the cold really gets to you.
Just don't use the same teleport every time, specially if a wolf was on your scent as you teleported out because chances are that he will be waiting for you

First priority is to get the troll event taken care of. There are two ways you can do that without gear. One is what Damnion suggested, go to your base and lure them away. Run around and let them chase you. The event will run out, then you escape them. The other is to portal far enough away that your base stops being an active part of the game. Wait for the timer to run out before you return. The event will end and you'll at most have two trolls to lure away.

Next priority is getting your loot. Assuming you don't want to wait until your frost resistance meads are done brewing, use campfires to help you get into the mountains. When you get there, the wolves may or may not still be there. If they are, lure them away and either jump through a portal, or die. When you die, you gain a status effect that prevents dying again from costing you skill levels. If you die again while you have this status effect, then you will refresh it. Exploiting this to get mobs away from your corpse is a thing.

This might not be a simple job. You might have to try several times, adjusting your tack as you go. Enjoy your adventure, Einheri.

I'd try to build two teleports relatively far from each other (but one of them should be as close as possible to your grave) and make the wolves chase you to the farthest teleport, so they go away from your grave and you can teleport from the other side and get your stuff back real quick.

Been there.

Just made a mental note some days ago that if you ever get a "You are being hunted" notification in the snowy area; BOOK IT!

The amount of wolves, holy sh.... Didn't know whether to try and kill em, block em, run or just shrivel up in a ball and cry. Tried a little of everything and RIP.

Later in the game I wholeheartedly recommend having some warm wolf gear, lox pelt cape etc. kinda things as spares to run back a little warmer to snatch up your gear from there. I luckily had my previous wolf-gear to Forrest Gump back to yoink the stuff.

Yeah, this is a good point that should have been brought up before. Pretty much everyone has been there, several times, and most people should have gotten over it one way or another. :) Everyone can do it.

Go to your base and lead the trolls around outside until the event ends then lead them off. Then make yourself frost resist potions and head back for your gear. In the future drop a temporary portal at the base of a mountain to make corpse retrieval easier.

there's always a rock to jump on where they can't reach you.

This is why it's always a good idea to have a backup. And a backup for your backup.

Absolutely. The more backups the better. Just keep backing up. If you aren't falling butt-first off the edge of Valheim, you're not backed up enough.

Only in case of plans, not gear. If you cannot repeat the progress you've made prior to losing your gear, without your gear, you should repeat that progress anyway because you've missed something. Either you found something like free silver vein jutting out from the ground, or cheesed every difficult enemy up until that point, or got new items from a friend instead of making them on your own.

I only have one black metal axe, and it's upgraded to the max, so I certainly don't want to lose it. But I have an iron axe mounted next to my forge tool rack, and plenty of iron in store to make a new one. Both are sufficient in dealing with wolves.
