feedback ref; progression & joined players contribution

Alright.. so, basically im looking for the feedback that possibly mostly long term players might be aware of involving the potential impact on progression it has with a player joining in, in regards to bosses killed / built scructures and etc.

The reasons first and foremost is my humble attraction for Valheim in the first place is simply the hints of Asatru lore, crafting, professions and potential for a reasonable combat experience if devs might be given a few years to learn what works and what the game needs to thrive and continue growing as they expand their vision for the future of Valheim.

With that in mind, I wish to be able to leave Mistlands behind me as if it never existed and without theme/nature breaking zerglings coming after me in form of raids and etc.

With previous feedback ive received before in mind has left me with the question IF its possible for another player to join my game with Eggs & Torn spirit
- And if that would have any impact on raids / bugs spawning outside of mistlands ?

Only the boss kill counts. Putting the head on the stone doesn't affect anything other than being able to access the power of that specific boss.

Players by themselves dont change anything besides a small tune to monster stats withing 100m to adjust the difficulty

The world events are tied to things that actually happened in given world, thats it. Any items from "outside" won't change a thing, except maybe if you brought a boss head and placed it on the stone, for that im not sure.

I dont think zerg fits Valheim either, but tbh thats only the seekers, rest could work. And frankly actual zerglings are much different... the wings and poor combat ability are sequels idea. Proper zergling would murder everyting in sight.

besides the zerg main cope, i might agree to some degree that it would be dealing more damage but would be wiped out by Terran forces without a doubt.

But would there be any impact at all lets say if i Built that whisp thing if someone else joined my game to only simply provide me with torn spirit alone ? nothing gameplay changing at all with just the structure of having the "Whisp fountain" built in my game world ?

thx for the feedback though, its not easy feeling such disdain for game nature breaking experiences kind of like having robots or xenomorphs added to my favourite games really stands out when they dont really belong either by history/lore or the theme of the game in general

Only boss kills change the world afaik. Not sure if its the actual kill or putting head on the stone. Whisp should do nothing bad, neither the chickens (except maybe making the game tiny bit easier).

My feeling on the zerg is that its quite different to stuff we have in V. Frankly i think part of the problem that they themselves are invaders to mistlands, they dont fit the asthetic, and that multiplies any other feelings we might have for them. Its a double edged sword thou, the fact that the game acknowleages they dont belong here partially fixes them.

The queen is turbo ugly thou, hope we can agree on that haha.

thx a ton, that answers all my questions and finally theres light by the end of the tunnel at least.

I'll start building a chicken farm once im done with my new place for portals before making a beggar thread to get my hands on some eggs and torn spirits

The queen of blades is the only true queen, agreed
