They&rsquo;re dark and offer a great contrast to the lighter-colored wood that often adorns longhouses in Valheim. However, the resources needed to build shingles are somewhat tricky to find, as they&rsquo;re also new to the game by way of the Hearth and Home update.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you want to learn how to make shingles in Valheim, keep reading below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Crafting Shingles in Valheim<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/ysh1bWVnaQfYG_U5aG4o53cxVIUy0LbnKwhMgXXYnzU\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMi92YWxoZWltL3NoaW5nbGVzL2ltYWdlM19fMV8ucG5n\" alt=\"How to make shingles in Valheim\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">The look of one&rsquo;s base in Valheim is of vital importance.

These pits contain massive amounts of the resource but are surrounded by deadly creatures like Fuling, Deathsquitos, and ooze monsters that are specific to the tar pits.
