New content
Discord
Solved Help topics
New- Help forum topics automatically receive a Mark as solved button. The topic author can mark their question resolved; the bot adds the Solved tag and a ✅ [Solved] title prefix while preserving existing tags.
Discord bug report forum
New- The public bug report forum replaces the old channel, which remains an archive; /bug and existing buttons send new reports to the forum. It links form submissions to admin tasks. Status changes update the post, topic title and tag; server voting reactions feed contributor analytics and Scout/Warden rewards.
Idea and compatibility forums
New- Ideas and compatibility requests are submitted through forms into separate forum topics. Server reactions feed ratings and contributor analytics; statuses sync with the admin board. Guides have buttons above and below the instructions, and previous channels remain as archives.
Jewels
Eye Between Worlds
New- Unique jewel: drops from any rune defender during a rune monolith event, except a corrupted one.
- Affix example: "Gazes through the worlds to The Southern Rift, and the way opens".
- One per tree.
Trail of the First Antler
Changed- A new per-path-node affix variant: endurance threshold.
Skill tree
Main Tree
Bomb conservation when throwing
New- Two new DEX–INT branches: five small nodes at 5% and two notables at 12.5% give a total 50% chance not to use up a bomb when throwing.
- The Careful Throw branch also gives 2% increased bomb throw speed on each of its three small nodes and 5% on its notable.
- The chance works only on a throw: it does not save materials when crafting bombs.
Tree numbers follow the tiers
Changed- Ailment build-up for a specific ailment or attack (bleeding, burning, chill, shock, slam, stagger): small nodes 10% → 16%, notables 25% → 40%.
- Damage nodes (weapons, elements, companions and more): small 6% → 8%, notables 15% → 20%; conditional damage rows grow the same way.
- Alternative attack and aura damage: small 3% → 6%, notables 7.5% → 15%. Damage against armour-broken enemies: 6% → 12%, 15% → 30%.
- Action cost notables (dodge, jump, run, draw, cast, slam, sneak): −10% → −5%.
- Conditional movement speed and cost rows (airborne, at full shield, while moving): about doubled, e.g. 2% → 4% movement speed.
- Mastery option Gathered Rumble: aftershock build-up 15% → 25%.
Notables that copied their small nodes
Changed- Six notables gave exactly what their small neighbours did; they now have notable values, e.g. 6% → 15% damage, −2.5% → −12.5% cost while moving.
Projectile Crits
Changed- The small Projectile Accuracy nodes are renamed Projectile Crits: they give projectile critical strike chance.
One-handed and two-handed
Changed- "One-handed" and "two-handed" attributes now apply only to melee and thrown weapons: bows, crossbows and staves no longer get them.
From Wall to Target
Balance- A ricochet off a wall now seeks a nearby enemy with a 40% chance instead of always.
Air Recoil
Balance- Cast recoil lifts you up only once per jump; later casts in the same airtime push only sideways and down. Endless flight with a staff no longer works.
Dagger Throw
Changed- The text now says "throw a one-handed knife": dual knives such as Skoll and Hati are not thrown.
Craft tree
Rune Carver
Divine Touch
Changed- Works with any chisel in any biome: there is no chisel requirement any more.
All professions
Mastery buildings
Changed- The Goldlight Gate and the Vacuum Chest appear in the hammer as soon as the mastery is taken and go away on respec.
Combat and equipment
Created targets
Spores
Changed- Spores have a new look.
Combat
Immobilize on bosses
Balance- Bosses have half the chance to be immobilized.
- New hits do not lengthen a boss's immobilize, and after it ends the boss is immune to it for 5 seconds.
Shield ram
Balance- The ram weighs each enemy (base health × stars, bosses ×3) against the shield's block power.
- Light enemies are rolled over, comparable ones cost stamina; too heavy ones or running out of stamina stop the ram and knock you down.
- The ram no longer wears your armour: the shield wears as on a normal block.
Training dummy
Damage readout
Changed- Every hit counts in full, not by how much health the dummy had left: big hits are no longer cut short.
- The plate now shows the run total, its length and the average per second; the run resets after 4 seconds without hits.
Equipment
Trinkets
Changed- Trinkets are at most magic: one prefix and one suffix. The Rune of the Jarl does not raise them. Rare trinkets already found stay as they are.
Creatures
Danger on the ground
New- Danger indicators on the ground are redrawn and polished.
- The Runecarver's rune and the Blast burst draw a rune circle on the ground in the exact reach of the blow; its fill grows until the blow lands.
- The Rotten pool and the Reeking cloud show as a steady circle of their reach.
- The circle's colour is the element of the blow.
- The circle lies on the ground and does not climb rocks or trees.
World and exploration
Loot and drops
Loot and drops settings
New- A new Loot and drops page in the world settings: equipment, currency, gems and unique items are set up separately.
- Each group chooses its sources: chests, enemies, bosses. For unique items this only permits a source: uniques bound to a boss or to chests still drop only there.
- Equipment, currency and gems each have their own drop rate slider. Unique item chances never depend on a drop rate.
- A drop gate for equipment and currency: after the recipe is open, after the first craft, after visiting the biome, or no gate.
- Ordinary gems cannot be crafted - their setting says so.
Separate drop rolls
Changed- Equipment, currency, gems and uniques roll on their own: turning one group off or down no longer raises the others.
- Currency drops 25% more often.
- By default currency, great runes included, can drop anywhere from the very start.
World setup welcome
Changed- One overall drop rate right after the difficulty: Standard is marked as recommended - items drop rarely and crafting is the main source of gear. Detailed settings are in the Path of Valheiman settings.
Corruption
New- A new common outcome, Filled: all empty affix slots are filled and the item becomes Rare.
- A new rare outcome: the item turns into another one on the same base, a unique into another unique of its kind.
Server settings
Biome levels
Changed- Biome levels can no longer be changed in the settings: creature levels, loot, crafted item levels and affix tiers stand on them.
- The new 'Recommended player levels' setting sets the recommended player level per biome and only moves the experience penalty.
- A custom 'Biome levels' line moves into the new setting by itself.
Raids at their biome's level
New- A new world setting: during a raid its zone rises to the raid biome's level, and raid mobs and their loot scale by it.
- Off by default; the checkbox is in the welcome window and the world settings, and Merciless difficulty turns it on.
Rested
Changed- Rested strength and duration are set separately: strength is 50% of vanilla by default, duration 85% (was 50%).
Azurite
Divine azurite
Changed- Divine veins are mined by any chisel from bronze up. Corrupted veins still need an iron chisel or better.
- The heavenly strike chance depends on the biome: none in the Meadows and Black Forest (only with the mastery), half in the Swamp and Mountain, full from the Plains on. The mastery adds on top.
Rune chisels
Changed- Chisels mine only azurite: they no longer chip stone or ore deposits.
Interface and usability
Discord
Bug reporting guide
Changed- Welcome links now lead directly to the bug report button. A short heading with a button is followed by separate instructions and a second report button.
Hints
Fortification
Changed- The fortification hint explains how much damage a point removes, where it comes from, how long it lasts and its base limit, with live numbers.
Trinket properties
Changed- Trinket properties that work only on its activation now say so: "On activation: …".
Equipment window
Tool cells
Changed- Any tool goes into any cell of the tool row; each cell's hotkey takes whatever lies in it.
- The tool row now also takes the Abyssal harpoon and modded harpoons and grappling hooks.
Tool slots switch
New- The "Tool slots" checkbox in the window settings hides the row, its hotkeys and the strip under the hotbar; tools move to the backpack, nothing is dropped.
- A "Camera to the item under the cursor" checkbox in the window settings: off, the preview always shows the whole character.
Move HUD cells
New- A button next to the window settings turns on an edit mode: drag the food, potion and arrow cell groups anywhere on the screen. Places are remembered; reset is in the settings.
Tome and earring cells
New- With the MagicPlugin mod installed the window gets tome and earring cells. Without that mod nothing changes.
Defence summary
Changed- The hover on the armour number opens in an item-style window: armour, evasion, rune shield, enemy accuracy here and your evasion chance, values in one column.
Ring models
Changed- Worn rings sit on the fingers with the artist's rig; a round model lies on the ground.
- Thanks to Dreanegade for help with the ring models and rig: https://thunderstore.io/c/valheim/p/Dreanegade/
Character bonuses
Draw speed
Changed- With a bow or crossbow in hand, a row under the general one shows the real draw or reload speed of that weapon.
General
Full text of cut captions
New- Captions cut with an ellipsis in the settings, the equipment window and the crafting list show in full on hover in a dark tooltip.
Creature level stars
New- A new Interface checkbox hides the level stars over enemy bars; modifier icons stay.
- Enemy alert icons are no longer taken for another mod's stars and no longer hide ours.
Skill article
Changed- The article explains that a skill in PoV is an ability from the tree or a boss sigil that fires on its own and then waits out its cooldown; the game's own skills are something else.
Hugin's Flight
Changed- The camera no longer bumps under roofs and trees; camera sway and its setting are removed.
- When the raven is out of the workbench's reach, its circle lights up with a message.
- The raven is 30% smaller and its mallet half the size.
Skill tree
Ring halo
Changed- Ring clusters share one golden theme halo in the game and planner.
Fixes
Loot and crafting
Crafted item level

Jewel disenchanting
Fixed- Unique jewels can be disenchanted at the Rune Carver Table.

Fixed- The Delver refill puts back broken display cases with boss altar keys, such as Sealbreaker fragments.

Items without the equipment window
Fixed- Kvasir's Blood without potion cells drinks the first meads of the hotbar by itself.
- Magic Purse works without the purse row too: coins in the backpack weigh nothing.

Death and grave
Fixed- Rings in their cells count as worn on death: kept with "keep equipment" and not deleted by "delete unequipped".

- With Grave Tether, tools, the purse and the rest go back to their cells after respawning.
- Worn armour and quivers no longer drop on the ground when entering the game.

Opening the bug report form
Fixed- The report form button no longer waits for the Discord API, preventing network delays from exhausting the interaction deadline.
Skill tree
Damage penalty on projectile notables
Fixed- Rain of Points, Scattered Steel and Handful of Iron gave 5% more damage instead of 25% less damage; the penalty is back.
Tree search
Fixed- Search finds jewel sockets and the jewels in them.
Path nodes
Fixed- Each planned path node keeps its own attribute: picking one no longer rewrites the others.
Mastery picks after an update
Fixed- If a mastery option's id is not found, the option is found by its effect and the pick is kept.
Tree zoom stutter
Fixed- Zoom and fit-to-screen redraw only visible nodes: the half-second hitches are gone.
Projectile crit in the preview
Fixed- The weapon gain panel shows projectile crit chance and multiplier for bows, crossbows, throws and staves.
Heavy Grip icon
Fixed- The Heavy Grip keystone has its icon again.
Ring clusters
Fixed- A ring cluster you could only reach through another branch now has its own entrance from the path nodes.
- Ring clusters are spread out: there are now at least five path nodes between any two of them.

- Shield Throw gets the extra projectile from "when throwing" rows.
- Shield bash hits the training dummy, trees, rocks and ore deposits.
- Shield bash and throw get oils, tree damage % and Ember of the Maul.
Sceptre strikes
Fixed- Additional strikes add smites to sceptres, and All Into One Target puts them on the main target.
- Smite on a target always lands at its feet and no longer misses under beams or by rocks.
- Smite sounds are 20% quieter.
Fimbulbringer
Fixed- Fimbulbringer's second phase keeps its normal health, so the fight reaches phase three again.
Training dummy
Dummy
Fixed- The damage readout works for players joining a host.
- The dummy plate hides while the tree, inventory, map or menu is open.
- The dummy can be removed with the hammer again.
Worlds and settings
World missing from the list
Fixed- A world no longer disappears from the list because of a stray file in its folder.
Skill limits
Fixed- A skill ticked in the skill limits window grows even while the general vanilla skill freeze is on.
Mod compatibility
Station_Radius
Fixed- With Station_Radius the game no longer closes on entering a world or picking the Rune Carver Table.
RunicBuildCamera
Fixed- Taking the hammer off from our cells turns the build camera off, as from the hotbar.
SeneaL UI
Fixed- With another equipment mod, SeneaL shows its own doll, food and action cells again.
- SeneaL's backpack no longer balloons to 160 cells.
- Our quick stack and sort leave cells locked in SeneaL alone.
- SeneaL item tooltips show base properties: belt food and potion slots, carry weight, corruption.
BetterArchery
