Valheim Armory

Valheim Armory is a continuation of Valheim Additions. A small mod designed to fill gaps in the valheim ecosystem.

The goal of this mod is to create a more diverse but not sprawling selection of weapons to make all playstyles feel fully supported at each level.

This mod is balanced to be mostly lore friendly with a preference for fun and enjoyable scaling and mechanics.

This mod is highly configurable, you can use all of it, parts or tune it as you need.

Translations

This mod will always have an up-to-date English localization, as that is what I can provide as its author. However, I do welcome community translations!

If you would like to contribute a new translation, or improve an existing one please feel free to reach out to me or provide a translation file in the same format as one of the existing ones. Found here

Here is a sample gallery of weapons added by this mod.

Below is more information on all of the items added, what tier they are in, where they are crafted and at what progression point. All of the sections below are expandable to view the details.

Boss Weapons

Eikthyrs

These weapons are split into two groups, one requiring the workbench and the other the forge. Meaning that some of these weapons will require metals from the black forest.

Arrows

Arrows Added here fill out a number of additional roles, and importantly add new resource sinks.

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Bone arrow	Workbench	Meadows
Chitin arrow	Workbench	Ocean
Ancient Wood arrow	Workbench	Swamp
Surtling Fire arrow	Forge	Mountain
Blackmetal arrow	Forge	Plains
Wood Bolt	Artisan	Blackforest
Bronze Bolt	Artisan	Blackforest
Iron Poison Bolt	Artisan	Swamp
Silver Frost Bolt	Artisan	Mountain
Blackmetal Surtling Bolt	Artisan	Plains

Atgeirs

Added Atgiers help fill in missing tiers.

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Royal Abyssal Atgeir	Forge	Mountain
Silver Atgeir	Forge	Mountain

Axes

Greataxes (2H Axes)

Battleaxes are a fun but very challenging playstyle in valheim. They are slow so you generally need to kill your opponets before they can kill you, which happens fast.

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Bronze Lumber Axe	Forge	Blackforest
Blackmetal Greataxe	Forge	Mistlands

Knives

Added Daggers

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Bronze Dagger	Forge	Blackforest
Iron Dagger	Forge	Swamp
Silver Dagger	Forge	Mountain

---

Added 2H Daggers

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Rascal Daggers	Forge	Blackforest
Rogue Daggers	Forge	Swamp
Blackguard Runic Daggers	Forge	Mountain

• Note: 2H Daggers will float infront of item wall mounts due to their separated attachment style. They display normally on an item stand.

The addition of 2H daggers at lower tiers also provides you a way to focus on that playstyle all of the way up till the current end of the game.

Bows

Added Crossbows

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Bronze Crossbow	Forge	Blackforest
Bronze Arbalist	Forge	Plains

Hammers

Added Sledges

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Blackmetal Sledge	Forge	Plains

Shields

Added Shields

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Serpent Scale Buckler	Forge	Swamp

Swords

Added Greatswords

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Bronze Greatsword	Forge	Blackforest
Iron Greatsword	Forge	Swamp
Silver Greatsword	Forge	Mountain

---

Added Swords

Name	Crafted At	Stage	Icon
Chitin Sword	Forge	Blackforest

• Chitin Sword (Abyssal Sword) is an early game sword sitting between bronze and iron but with the unique difference of inflicting some blunt damage, making it less useless against all of the enemies in the swamp

Configuration

Everything is optionally configurable through the ingame mod configuration UI provided by BepinEx.

• Thunderstore link
• Nexus Link

Otherwise a configuration file located at /BepInEx/config/com.midnightsfx.ValheimArmory.cfg contains all of the configuration.

Please note that basically ALL of the configuration is server sided. Which means that it requires a restart of your game to take effect. This allows me to ensure that the server and the client are always in sync with the details of everything- like how much damage you did to that greydwarf.

Current configuration options:

• Damage
• Damage per level
• Recipe
• Stamina cost
• Block amount
• block per level
• Crafted amount (where applicable)

FAQ

Q. The bronze crossbow costs dragon tears?

• A. Delete the config for the bronze crossbow (or your whole config file).

Q. Why does x weapon look bad?

• A.
  • This is my first Unity, and Valhiem mod
  • My original goal with modding was to just make a singular new arrow
  • I'm not a gamedev, I suck at textures, modeling and don't know the unity loaders
  • I'm learning as I go, and welcome feedback

Currently in-progress

Future Plans

Installation (Automatic)

Just download with your favorite modmanager!

Installation (manual)

Toss the ValheimArmory folder and files into your plugins folder. Technically the only thing required is the ValheimArmory.ddl, configs will generate on first run.

Changelog

1.4.0

- Added initial bonemass boss weapons!
- First 2H warhammer added, likely slightly overpowered. This weapon acts like a 2H axe or sword, but does blunt damage.
- Added silver Atgeir, this is a direct upgrade between Iron & Blackmetal
- Updates to how localizations are added, better support for multiple languages
- Added Russian translation

1.3.4

- Fixed Moders crossbow not being configurable and using the wrong defaults

1.3.3

- Fixed wood bolt triggering the invalid recipe warning
- Fixed a particle mock for arrow feathers not resolving on some versions of valheim
- Rebalance of most boss weapons, and a few outlier non-boss weapons. Recipes are slightly more expensive overall and damage is generall down across the board.
	This primarily brings boss weapons in line with the next tier weapon minus a small bit. The balance change is just to the default config values.
	If you want to keep your weapons more powerful continue using your existing config, defaults will only be applied if you do not have a value set (new or deleted config).
