FFS if its to easy for you just go play something else or i dunno challenge urself with going everywhere with bare fists....not all of us are ♥♥♥♥♥ nolifers ,wchich train DS rolling all days. Mistlands was exciting and challenging before this recent update. I'm echoing what everyone else on the valheim discord is saying - changing the seekers into circlers is really disappointing. No threat means no accomplishment and it reduces the overall variety in the game. By this point a player should have had enough of that silliness from greydwarves (and even the gobbos).
The overall dumbing down of difficulty, recipes (no reason to go back for the rancid trophy), almost makes this long awaited patch feel pointless. Not to mention de-incentivizing the use of different rug materials. This has been my favorite game and it's impressive how fast it turned into something I have trouble finding reason to play.
Maybe the next patch should update parrying and attacking so that it happens automatically and we don't have to learn proper combat mechanics or think about tactics. And also remove all the confusing build pieces so we aren't overwhelmed with possibilities - just have a square shape and a rectangle shape that we can sleep inside of. Enemies should also have audio lines encouraging us so that don't get discouraged.
