Valheim continues to grow weekly. The Viking survival game is conquering players all over the world, something that not even Ragnar Lothbrok managed to do. One of the most important elements of the game is to manage resources, build your base, tools, equipment, face bosses, and explore the unexplored.
But to withstand such pressure, you need a home to come back safely. Do you know what is worse than not having a home? Having one, and when you return from your trip, finding it crumbling down because you didn't give enough care to level the ground.
This guide will teach you how to level or raise ground, so that your house is built on a foundation as solid as your fists of steel and your berserker's will. It is easier than it sounds, but many seem to miss or forget this technique. Tools Required To Level Ground First off, you're gonna need a workbench, something you probably already have. You don't!? Shame on you. Grab some sticks and stones on the ground, more precisely, 3 x wood and 2 x stone, and create a hammer. You will unlock the workbench recipe. Equip hammer, right-click, create a workbench with 10 woods.
Now that you are a rookie Viking builder, it's time to build a hoe on your latest IKEA furniture, the working bench. To craft the hoe you need 5 x woods and 2 x stones. Craft it and done, time to level some ground. How To Level Or Raise Ground Equip the hoe, aim it and strike the ground. Pretty easy. But if you played a lot of Harvest Moon and have a habit of hoeing around while walking, you will have serious problems and won't understand why the leveling doesn't obey you.
This is where the simple stuff gets confusing. When you use the hoe to level the ground, it levels according to where you are standing. In other words, if you are running around, the floor will become uneven like the inside of a homemade loaf. The ideal is to stay on top of the desired level and rotate the camera as you bulldoze around. When the ground is dirt-looking, it means that it's leveled, so you can keep hoeing.
