Know its going to get asked a bunch and forgot to mention. The water at the last base spot, the best one, does not freeze in the winter unlike the other lake everyone is saying is the best spot that actually isn't.

[ishtyou]

The only problem with bases that can't be reached by the cannibals is that Virginia and Kelvin also can't reach them. So you're leaving them out without a home either.

[MrDudeman]

I just stay at my lake house during the warm seasons and when the lake freezes, I move to my winter house over the rapids. It’s still a nice island and I just love the aesthetic

[Lord_Juvens]

Rope Bridges also can be filled with half planks/half logs. Saves times and because it's narrower it's even less likely enemies can get on it 👍

[BloodRavenX]

On the side of the island where you find the machete you will see 3 small lakes close to each other. Your focus is the one with the weird shape. Now as you fet there you will see it is next to a cliff. On that cliff there is a small but decent size step where i placed my house. If you play around with the log foundation you may manage to make it 4x2 but, cannibals can't reach you from the top of the cliff nor from below and there are plenty of mooses in the area as well as camps. I personally made a zipline travel but you can make a bridge as well if you like

[onelansou]

I have spawned in the mountain and decided to live in the frozen cave with no loading with the camp and frozen lake outside, using wall shelves and torches and a campfire and a bed im on my day 70 with no enemy nor ally able to get inside the cave

[malcultimas]

There's a series of cliff faces below the gps location where you get the flash light (as spoiler free as I can describe it) one of those stone overlooks has a large area of trees and grass in front it with several large boulders scattered around the area. For some reason even tho the entire area is open, the AI for animals, kelvin, and cannibals will only take one specific route on it's east side to enter the field even going out of their way to run up and along the upper stone overlook above the area to enter it if they are on the west side of the field. If you just build a long line of traps along this path you don't even have to build walls around your base and there's so many squirrels running thro the traps you have unlimited meat and water is just a 30 second jog to the west. Alot of times I'll have groups of cannibals just standing at whatever invisible force field there is around it yelling at me unable to enter even though it's just an open field. The best defense in this game is broken pathfinding.

[Goatcha_M]

Below the huge waterfall, with the camp at the bottom is another good spot.
Water doesn't freeze and its shallow enough to build, although you may need to lay some logs to stand on if you want a bigger structure.
Only annoying thing is Kelvin can't use it.

[norske_ow]

Quick tip: you can also turn base damage off in the settings

[undying]

Great spot. There is also an ammunition case by the pond near the cliff to the right!

[darrenlee]

ANY size base you want, totally secure even in winter, forest one zip line away, fresh water nearby year around.
Go to the large bay next to the survival raft, there is a huge area that the water is about knee deep where you can build any size you want. Cannibals and mutants will not go into the water. Attackers are easy kills, they stand on the water edge, you stand in the water and kill them, easy peasy.

[Jama]

You have the best videos. Love your valheim content. ❤️

[dorknuckle]

For me that’s the best part of the game, I like building a whole community it’s great in multiplayer, we build whole towns 😊

[ThatsMforyou]

can you explain step by step how to do the zig zag pattern for the scaffolding for that water base? every time i try to do it it does the flip up placement instead and i fall in the water and the logs go all over the place

[kriddius]

I've seen people say to make a base on the east side of the island where there are "no cannibals". I've explored that whole side and there most definitely are. There's large areas of the map completely devoid of vegetation because the game is still in development. Some places look finished but don't have wildlife spawns coded in yet so you'll starve and others are mostly fleshed out and look 90% finished. Some places have areas of cleared ground that look like camps will be added in future. Regardless, no matter how far you get away from cannibal camps they will still raid you. I've seen raiding parties literally pop into existence ahead of me on a beach and attack. Your base location does not matter. Unraidable bases require exploiting pathfinding AI or some other bug only
Also bear in mind most the points of interest are crammed into the north west corner of the map because that area is the most fleshed out. I predict many caves, bunkers and other areas will be cut/paste to other locations to spread them out as the game continues in pre release

[thedonzo]

Another tip for the Beach house setup or any far away base, you can send logs down the zip line and the logs will travel down the zip line and fall down at the other side. I don't k own if this is a bug or not, it looks intentional to me but I could be wrong.

[Reeper_]

I literally had them jumping up and hitting it and a few actually made the jump on it. They did damage it when jumping and destroyed pieces. This was lastnight.

[gamingnomad]

Thanks for the great video it'll help me when I finally get the game!

[draon]

Enemies can't use bridges, so use em as a wall at waist level.
Have 4 bridges surrounding your base, or better yet make a solid wall behind each bridge so enemies can't reach the wall to attack it.

[AzureRook]

Found a nice riverbank below the snow spawn, knew it was a good spot when cannibals kept drowning upstream
