VALHEIM.MAP

Valheim 0.212.9

This public test build, which may be unstable, rebalances Mistlands armour, shields and staffs, and tweaks ballistae and several Mistlands enemies. It also adjusts fishing and comfort, fixes a range of animation, sound and networking issues, and shrinks the game's RAM use and download size.

Changes and balancing 13

  • Mistlands armour and shield recipes have been rebalanced and their durability increased.
  • Staffs have rebalanced recipes and stats.
  • Ballistae fire faster, play sound effects when shooting and when they lose sight of targets, and have tweaked targeting behaviour.
  • Ballista ammo recipes are cheaper.
  • The Mistlands Seeker event no longer triggers in Meadows, Swamps, Mountains or Ocean, no longer spawns Seeker Soldiers, and has a rebalanced number of Seekers and Broods.
  • Seekers should now circle around a bit instead of staying on the player constantly, giving players some time to catch their breath.
  • Seeker Soldier and Gjall spawn rates were lowered, as they used to spawn quite often, and are now much more similar to Troll spawns in Black Forest.
  • Gjall now shoot 1 projectile at a time instead of 2.
  • Hare running speed is slightly decreased.
  • Comfort from different carpets no longer stacks.
  • Tetra bait now uses the Fenring trophy instead of the Ulv trophy.
  • Tuna now always takes ocean bait, since it lives in the ocean.
  • Fish in mountain caves now respawn correctly, and a small additional lake was added.

Fixes 11

  • Fixed a stutter when walking left with a hoe or hammer equipped.

  • Mating hens no longer sound like boars.
  • The correct effects now show when placing the marble bench and table.
