• Place markers on the map, this will allow us to label those places that we discover as dungeons so we never lose sight of them.
• Start with a shed first, and when you have it, then go on to create a simple one or two tier base.
• You need to build a bed and a campfire first to create a spawn point. Note that you can only have one spawn point, and it should be close to your main base. Do not even think about putting the fire inside.
• During the early access stage to Valheim you will be able to repair your equipment totally free, we will see later.
