One other week has handed and one other patch has arrived within the Viking afterlife. This is not an enormous patch for Valheim, just like the upcoming Fireplace and Residence replace we’re holding our breath for, but it surely does comprise numerous fixes, modifications, and tweaks, most of them good.
Among the many high quality of (after)life selection, there’s been a repair for the ‘consolation’ calculation, which is elevated when you might have sure objects in your room, akin to rugs, chairs, and beds. There was a difficulty the place a stool and easy mattress would override the consolation degree of higher objects, like a chair and a better high quality mattress. That is been fastened.
In the event you’re sporting heavier armor, you will not be knocked again as a lot in fight, which is smart. In the event you swing a battle axe round, you are extra more likely to hit a number of foes now, which sounds helpful. And get pleased, Vikings, as a result of your bolstered chests now have 24 storage slots as an alternative of simply 18. Huzzah! It is the proper place to maintain six extra of your 2,345,921 spare dwarf eyes.
Monster tweaks are welcome, too, like a better trophy drop charge for deathsquitos and drakes, and wolves that spawn at night time will not be so fast to flee and despawn whilst you’re taming them. All boss drops now float, so if you happen to occur to ice Bonemass whereas he is lurching round in deep water, you’ll acquire the whole lot he drops extra simply.
A number of modifications would possibly make sure features of Viking life a bit tougher, although. Campfires, bonfires, and hearths now take harm whereas dealing harm, so if you happen to’ve arrange fires as a part of a mass-culling operation to farm sources, these fires are going to want some restore work infrequently. Similar if you happen to’re utilizing campfires to assist take down Valheim’s second boss, The Elder, as a result of they will degrade whereas they’re burning him. A slight delay has additionally been added to utilizing the hammer, hoe, and cultivator, which has some gamers nervous about farming and landscaping, although I jumped in to check it out and I barely discover the delay in any respect. I feel it’d simply be an try to stop fixed spamming on busy servers, which can have an effect on efficiency. However we’ll see if it is tweaked once more additional down the road.
Lastly, there’s been a change to how console instructions work. The console has been disabled by default, so to activate it you may want so as to add a line to the sport’s launch properties on Steam.
It is simple: simply right-click Valheim in your Steam library, choose Properties, and within the Normal tab, on the backside the place it says Launch Choices, sort -console. (No interval on the finish.) When in-game, press F5 and the console will open. Fairly than utilizing “imacheater” to activate cheats, you may now need to sort devcommands as an alternative.
