Notes/Trivia

  • This modded Map was the first development of Fjordur. An official Fjordur DLC was released in June 2022 as a collaboration between the Fjordur development team and Wildcard, who also agreed to the continuation of the modded Fjordur. While the two versions are very similar, they do differ in various ways.
  • Frostmourne reference can be found in Jotunheim cave
  • Gollum reference can be found in mount doom and redwood cave
  • Jormungandr reference can be found in deep sea area
  • Helms Deep reference can be found on Vannaland
  • The World Tree reference can be found in a castle near the Skadifjord
  • Dvergheimr is a reference to Moria
  • Shimmering Halls are a reference to Erebor
  • Fjordur has custom supply drop optics
  • Fjordur has its own custom skin set which can be found in caves
  • Fjordur has 3 realms which can be visited via the Portal Cave
  • Fjordur has custom made boss arenas
    • Manticore is the Master Controller AI since it's artifacts are found in the Broodmother's, Megapithicus' and Dragon's arenas.
  • Thylacoleos on Fjordur does spawn on the ground in the redwoods instead on trees. Fjordur has custom redwoods
  • Aberrant Megalania is present in The Chasm too.
  • Elder Scrolls reference can be found in Drengrheimr (looks nearly identical to Bleak Falls Barrow)
  • Fjordur has a single explorer note from EXT Chronicles on SE in the Manticore Arena
  • Carcharodontosaurus wasn't a part of the voting nor a fan-made dino but it will still spawn in Fjordur in June 2022.
  • Fjordur shares many features with Genesis 1:
    • Both are simulations
    • Both have a level of corruption
    • Both have seperated biomes
    • Both have Masters AI
    • Both need keys for the Master Controller AI obtained by killing bosses or doing missions.
    • Both have a Skyrim reference
  • Aberrant Megalania, unlike other unique Fjordur content can be transfered to other maps.
  • The abb artifacts can be used to hijack the tek cave in Asgard and gain access to Mjolnir, Asgard Shield and desert titan terminal for a day (week on a server).
  • The name was originally Fjordur but was changed to Fjell when this map became official Fjordur's timecapsule
