In "Valheim," your exploration is guaranteed to be endless. As players unravel the wilderness and depths of their locations, they discover new things that are not discussed before.

One of the recent events has become popular among players, which states that the forest is "moving." If you happen to see this sign, pay attention to this guide to see where it comes from.

Attacking a troll in 'Valheim'

Austin King of Screenrant reported that the famed sign is one of the game's events based on a story. You can trigger it at particular points of your main story, but just make sure that you have already defeated Eikthyr, the first boss in the game.

Moving forward, continue your journey until you fight The Elder, the next boss. The "trigger" will depend on the player's "Valheim" progress, so watch out if this pops out randomly.

At any time, the event could emerge even if you are crafting a material inside your house. Like a typical alarm, this serves as a warning that you should prepare for the impending opponents.

Usually, the common foes that will attack you are the Greydwarfs, and the raid can last for two minutes. The sign that reads "The forests rests again" will come out when the event is already finished.

In building a house, you need to consider its durability. The event serves as a test to know if your abode can endure the incoming attacks. The events would randomly appear, but it appears as though once the second boss is defeated, they would stop happening at once.

How to Defend Home When Trolls Attack You in 'Valheim'

Next, we will now discuss how to deal with Trolls when you see them.

First of all, these creatures are too obvious due to their gigantic size, and you can exploit their weakness because they move slowly, so you can easily flee from them. But, what should you do if they are attacking your home?

Remember that these monsters are tank-y, so they have huge hit points. They can throw boulders or even logs at you. When you see the warnings 'The forest is moving' and 'You are being hunted,' that's the time that you should ready your defense for the upcoming attacks.

According to Fandom, the clear indication that the trolls will now attack you is the "The ground is shaking" alert. It only appears after you have conquered The Elder and slain at least a single troll.

For your strategy, get a hammer for a fast repair of your walls and other parts of the house. Repeat the process until you feel that your house is already durable to withstand the attacks.

For the base, consider building two rows of stake walls or stonewalls. If the troll breaks the outer layer, the next layer will remain safe. To avoid the creatures from destroying your house, use an ax to dig a deep space surrounding your house.

Also, you need to have enough food supplies so you can easily replenish your health and stamina to continue your fight with the trolls. If you feel that your house is fragile, just run away and take them to a wide area. Then, it is the perfect time to fire some arrows at them.

Consider crafting fire arrows because they are sturdier than wood arrows. Gather wood, feathers, and resin to create them. If you are still not satisfied with them, make crude arrows.

However, they tend to be more difficult to use when aiming at monsters. Use the strategy run and gun, and always aim for the head for bonus damage.

Defeating a troll requires patience, and this can take a lot of time. Just continue firing arrows until the troll falls to the ground. Upon defeating the monster, you can get rewards such as coins and troll hide.

Besides the Sauron Tower, another state-of-the-art architecture in the game is the Notre Dame building, as per Eurogamer. GIPv, a Reddit user, created it.

The building is described as a cathedral that resembles the famous church engulfed by fire in 2019. It features the glass windows which suit its archaic age and the bell towers. The creator stated that the whole structure is purely built from wood, and most of the parts are based on the frame.
