💡I looked it up and only found 1 post that is 3 months old. This is not about horses but if they were something devs intend on adding I recommend they also include a kelpie enemy.

Location: meadows. Only becuase I can imagine it working/being believable in mist lands with all the cliffs. The kelpie usually lures in its victims and makes them drown. Activation would be triggered after completing something in the world since early game could make some mechanics hard/feel unfair.

Mechanics:

only appears when there is fog. You hear it from a distance and have to go to the water and look for it. From here there are 2 ways devs could do this.

1st would be just making it attack instantly once you get near the water.
OR
2nd option is the kelpie causes a mirage of meadow that the player can walk on up until the water is 5 meters deep then the player will drop off and the mirage will clear thus causing the kelpie to attack the player till they can get back to shore.

In this instance your map would still be showing water even while the kelpie is making a meadow mirage. So you would only be fighting in the water if you were careless about your surroundings and not referring to your map.

Drops:
All drops would float and include
Sea weed, kelpie meat, and some sort of bladder that can be used to craft a personal flotation device that ensure the player will never drown but cant swim as quickly as a player without one. Might need a durability limit or something.

This would only work if horses are even being considered to be added. Otherwise I don’t think this enemy working.

💡Some kind of exclusion filter for auto pickup?

I feel like I’m being grieved by toddlers when I open my inventory. I just cleaned up this mess and it’s back already. 😒

💡Back Pack, using different sets of hide and maybe a needle with thread to craft? Back Pack would add an additional row for inventory, and wouldn’t eliminate the use of the carry weight belt or trinkets. Cons: uses more stamina or limits mobility in some way. Pros: gives players more inventory space to carry additional meads, arrows, bolts, and/or loot. Feel free to take this idea and run with it, but the additional row of inventory space is vital

💡 More use for tamed animals.

When do we get something like a cage or w/e to transport our tamed animals through portals or on boats? I am a bit of a nomad and it is such a pain to get animals acros. Especially the big Lox... Why did I tame one if I can't get it off the island? Maybe a magic spell to turn them into ... idk... a soul and unpack the soul elsewhere?

I would also like to be able to maybe have a wolf drag my cart for me because if I do it I am so slow. Some pack animal would be nice. Or maybe give wolfs carry bags?

desert bough Feb 18, 2026, 10:41 AM

#

💡 Craftable travel bags using animal skins.

I think for inventory management and maybe extra carry capacity it would be awesome if we could make a sort of bag out of the different animal skins with the different skins giving more space. Maybe the deer skin only gives 4 or 5 spaces extra and then the next animal skin like maybe bear skin could give 8-10 extra spaces.

Even if it doesn't make you able to lift more it would still be neat to have a tool like this for inventory management and it would also be a cool accessory if you made it equitable like most clothes and armor. You could even take inspiration from real viking age bags and pouches.

Maybe the first thing you craft that only gives you 2 more slots is a little pouch made from 4 leather scraps or so?

💡 pvp focused game mode

I wish there was a pvp mode, instead of isles having multiple biomes, now an island only has one biome, the center line is meadows, the further you go you get forest, further swamp, etc etc, why islands?
So clans can claim an island, when you spawn in a island you can claim it by killing the boss in it 3 times, if multiple clans attemp to take an island they must decide on a location in the island and fight to the death, clans have their own sigil and NOBODY can build there but clan members, in order to expand you must defeat the boss of that island to claim it, this awards you tech tree points, so your clan can unlock weapon tech, so different clans are forced to focus on specific weapons, clans have their own sigil, color and moto, you can decorate your bases with clan banners, clan sails in ships, and all gear has the clans color

biomes are now isles
when you kill a boss in the island it becomes your clans island, if an enemy clan kills mobs or mines in an island you own they get nothing and they cant build there
when you spawn if there are more than x clans you must join one, biggest clan gets locked so we dont have one dominating everything
you cant unlock every weapon tech, so each clan will focus on maces, axes, swords, etc
more pvp tech (use ravens to spy on other clans, harpoons to raid enemy ships, etc)
if you defeat the boss of an island that is owned by an enemy clan 3 times, the defending clan will choose a spot for a fight between clans, you cannot respawn while the fight lasts, the survivor clan keeps the island

Something like that would freshen up the game a lot, as the game is amazing when it comes to combat, building, but the gameplay loop gets a bit tiresome around the mountains stage, the danger of pvp would keep things fresh

💡 "Prime Steak" or some consumable item that can temporarily increase animal health. So your wolves/mounts can prepare for the adventure the same way our Vikings do... sort of.

💡 Wisp update

I understand the wisp is needed for us to traverse the mist lands, but they have so much more potential outside of lights and a blade. Just a few ideas for our spiritual friends to help out,

Wisp wood: Beams and floors, no roofs or walls. Due to the Wisps magical properties, this is the only wood structure that does not take water damage, allowing you to build traditional wooden docks that don't take water damage, as well as beautiful garden walk ways under the rainy sky.

Fey Chest: Any item placed in the chest, is accessible to any crafting station within 10 meters, allowing you to get straight to making blades and armors without running back and forth through storage. (Possibly limit to one chest per 10 meters though, don't want Vikings to get too lazy.)

Wisp Well: Small stone well that acts as a six slot personal chest, with the addition that you can name and link it to another Wisp Well. Two wells over a long distance allow for trading with a friends base, or for an easy equipment swap as you're out in your adventures. (If one chest is in use, then both chests count as being used to prevent duplication glitches)

💡 Customizable sails for karves, longboats, and drakkars. To customize, make a regular boat then attempt to build a banner on it. When attempting to build a banner on a boat, placing the banner instead causes the boat sail to change to a pattern based on the banner, consuming the banner materials.

Once you've set a sail style for a specific boat, every subsequent boat of that type you build will automatically have that sail style. To change, apply a different banner. To remove, apply the same banner as previously applied; this doesn't consume banner mats.

💡 Simple Improvements #1 8 dedicated inventory slots for Armor (3) + cape + trinket + accessory and 2 slot quiver
for arrows/bolts. Keep weight limits

#2 One of the capes should be resistant to fire

#3 Door piece for floor

#4 Two new tools plains items black metal hammer and black metal hoe, then you can
combine them with Yggrasil wood and Eitr at a 2nd level artisian table.

   1)Combo Pick and Hoe (Dvergr Pathmaker): Combine blackmetal pick and 
   blackmetal hoe  

    2)Combo Axe/Hammer (Dvergr Hatchet)

#5 Deconstruct items to return material

#6 Craftable Tokens for a boat or portals. Combine materials + Eitr at a lvl 2 Artisan's
table, maybe with a slight 25% weight savings. With a basic crafting table and
hammer, you can build/deconstruct boats and portals from/to the token.

 #7  Spirit Blob crafted from a Wraith Trophy

#8 Ashwood arrows that you can upgrade with secondary damage.
Ectoplam for spirit,
tar for fire,
Bile for poison/fire,
maybe something new from the deep north, for upgraded frost arrows.

💡 I'd like to suggest adding new poses to the armor stands, like one holding a bow and aiming, another with a sword stuck in the ground and a shield as well, or with the shield on their back, one with a sword and shield in hand (or two small axes).

💡 Add a world option to disable water damage from buildings!

raw oracle Feb 19, 2026, 2:28 PM

#

💡 Add Cabbage, this was something the Vikings ate a lot of, and it could become an exciting addition both as a crop and as food.
The required planting distance should be significantly reduced, as it makes little sense to have one meter between each plant when, in reality, everything you grow in this game would typically be planted about 10–20 cm apart.

odd vale Feb 19, 2026, 9:14 PM

#

💡 I would like to suggest a change in controls. On PC when using an xb1 controller, it is necessary to hold block to dodge. Why..? Why does the build menu take precedence over a simple dodge, like just press B? This functionality makes dodging clunky in combat. My idea is; Tap B to dodge(also directional) or, hold B for 1.5 or 2 seconds, to open the build menu. This would make things much smoother. Anyway, just my thoughts...

💡Land enemies shouldn't be able to attack you under water while you can't respond in kind. This is unbalanced.

Had an experience with land mobs running completely submerged under water after my boat, shooting it with bows and hitting it with other weapons. They also didn't slow down in water. They almost destroyed the boat. If players get their weapons sheathed in deep water, land mobs should also have to abide by that game law.

cosmic whale Feb 19, 2026, 10:05 PM

💡 Make enemies able to drown when they swim too long. Reason: Greylings make it their habit to use the lake around my base as a permanent swimming pool and harass my boars and whenever I kill one, the next day, another one goes swimming there.

ornate hedge Feb 19, 2026, 11:43 PM

#

💡 Maybe add a backpack, or some kind of extra storage item, because at least in my experience, I only ever have 40% of my inventory open to pick items up due to all the damages i need to cover, my armor, trinkets, food, etc. Maybe even just make armor and wearable items a separate section in the inventory, therefore freeing up space for other items?

💡Black metal to iron conversion recipe

It's oft been lamented how surprisingly iron-hungry a lot of crafting recipes are well beyond the iron age, requiring repeated visits to the swamp or, alternatively, vandalism of mistlands architecture to satisfy. I propose the following recipe be added to the forge:

Iron Ingot x3 = Blackmetal Ingot x2 + Iron Scrap

Nobody seems quite sure what exactly black metal is, but from a little research I'd hazard a guess that it's something like a magical steel, great for some applications while poor for others. What this recipe is is essentially diluting it with impurities, changing its physical properties into a more commonly workable form.

Iron scrap is used intentionally for gameplay reasons, so that swamp trips aren't rendered completely obsolete (iirc devs have said they still want you to have to revisit earlier biomes), but what iron you do get from swamps is essentially stretched triple with this recipe.

💡 Add a clumping mechanic for loose items. Pretty sure this already exist to some extent but y’all really need to make this a thing 100%. It would help alot with performance. I have a high end pc and Ashlands can still get noticeable frame drops. Mainly when a Morgen crushes a ton of rocks and leaves all the loose grausten. Not to mention all the other stuff. There should really be a clumping system to help with this. Or just make Morgens not able to break wild rocks…….

maiden tusk Feb 20, 2026, 5:30 AM

#

💡 make all creatures in the game that aren't sea creatures, or water friendly like Necks have an inherent desire to return to land.

Say, after 5 seconds of being in water, all creatures that don't belong there then will abandon their current pathing, and swim to the nearest unobstructed land area to return to.

Makes sense logically, and also solves some previously mentioned problems. And those darn rabbits in Mistlands that love to swim into the ocean! Deer too 🤨

💡 Add a boat that you can live on in the deep north update!

After defeating the final boss, there could be a buildable boat that comes with a cabin, fire and bed, along with storage as most ships do. You can get your rested buff, set your spawn, sleep through the night, and shelter from the rain!

I imagine it could be a steam boat of sorts, maybe requiring wood or coal to be able to move around with the motor, without a sail or paddle. This would mean that it could move the same speed unimpaired by the wind, which would make boat travel less of a hassle. A steam boat might stray a bit from the viking style of Valheim, but I’d love to have a remote base!

💡Throwable net

Can be thrown at small enemies to capture them. Deals no damage but briefly slows their movement. Unable to catch larger/stronger enemies as to not be too unbalanced.

💡Add keybindable HUD hide key.

Currently locked to: Ctrl+F3 which a) is sort of a hidden feature in the first-place, and b) forcing us to crouch, sometimes spoils an otherwise spontaneous shot, making a player stand up from sitting, break pose etc etc. Nothing wrong with giving players more choice, right?

💡 Various instruments like lyres, drums and flutes

It gets kind of bland sailing across the oceans so why not spice it up with some music or have something to play for a celebration when killing bosses?

💡 Add an option to disable vegsivir the small runestones that put boss locations on the map, a option that means you must find the boss location yourself, it allows the map to still be used, but makes exploration much more vital to find bosses.

💡I have some cool ideas to improve Hildir's Request. One thing I thought about is amulets, similar to the ones that were included: In the skeleton quest, you would earn the Bone Amulet, which increases by 1 the number of summons you can make. In the ice quest, you unlock two weapons in her shop: One would be the early staff that casts a small poisonous orb on the targets it hits and deals low but crushing area damage, and the other weapon would be a precision bow, whose difference is that you reach maximum accuracy faster—you wouldn’t need to hold it for long. And for the end of the goblin tower, it would be nice to have two weapons as well: the goblin staff that summons a spear-wielding or melee goblin, just one, and if you use the amulet, it would summon two; summoning would use HP. And the other weapon would be a large bone hammer. Maybe just unlocking the components of these items would be more interesting, and then the player could craft them using black metal or iron. Some things that will help players who want to become a mage earlier, for example.

crude thorn Feb 21, 2026, 12:56 AM

💡 Maybe, add a vendor for each Biome:
Meadows: Hildir.
Black Forest: Haldor.
Swamp: The Bog Witch.
This way we would have a vendor for the Mountains, Plains, Oceans, Mistlands, Deep North, and Ashlands.
Each with useful items as the game progresses, or even to add decorative items increasing comfort or just beauty. For example, the Oceans vendor could add items that decorate and beautify boats, or even materials for a new boat!
The Mountains vendor could add materials for a mage's staff earlier and also food ingredients with Etir for the early mage; I noticed that my friends wanted to be mages earlier in the game.
The Plains vendor could add something that improves the taming of domesticable animals or also add something like a backpack for Lox so we can use them to carry things, a vendor more focused on taming and farming perhaps.
The Mistlands vendor could be one with the most expensive items but with high utility value, such as effect armor or even enchantments for armor like reducing fall damage or reducing damage from a certain element, etc. The ideas are endless!

💡 add all keybinds in game to the keybind menu. Stuff like descend while flying, hide ui, and the f1-12 keys (and anything else im forgetting) should be rebindable in the settings (it also means the game will tell the player about these 'secret' keybinds)

💡 give us different kind of fences, some which fit to each type of wood maybe, being able to only have roundpole fences is kinda lackluster and actually building own fences is a lil tough, i feel like adding an bigger amount of fences really enhances a look of an building even more, having different kind of styles for each wood would be great

slim osprey Feb 21, 2026, 9:52 PM

💡 Subtle visual differences in levels of armour, shields and weapons as they increase/upgrade.

Things like extra straps, plates, buckles, slightly longer shoulder pads/pauldrons, additional adornments (like small horns or face-guards on helmets), longer/more intricate hilts/pommels/guards, wraps around the shafts of spears/atgeirs, more ornate heads/blades on polearms/axes/swords etc.

Something to visually tell that the weapons/armour someone is wearing is not "baseline" armour, as well as a visual indicator to yourself if you've made, but forgotten to upgrade your armour.

So your viking goes from looking "badass" (particularly in some of the later-game armours) to "epic badass" if you've upgraded the weapon/armour to its maximum level.

💡 New monster - Troll wives (based off the Scandanavian legends)

So in the Scandanavian lore they were not big brutish monsters, but more like witches that could shape shift and change the weather as well as place curses.

For their appearance, most of the stories depict them as beautiful women with hollow spines and cow tails/hooves but it's not unheard of for them to be as big and hideous as the males.

For their combat in the game they could possibly rely on debuffs and curses rather than direct damage.

💡 Core Wood Log Wall + Fence:
I really love the log wall aesthetic and always use it for outpost bases (and on my main base until I get sufficient materials for a more solid upgrade), but despite its height and durability advantage over normal walls, log wall are still often too short and not sturdy enough for my builds. And depending on what biome you are in, or what raid you are up against, you don't necessarily get lasting protection from attacks or sight-lines.

I would love it if there was a Core wood variant of log walls that are slightly taller and sturdier, at the cost of core wood obviously, possibly wider too. I just really want to not have to dig a moat, or raise the ground 9 blocks to stop my loxes from stacking on each other and walking out of their enclosure. It would also hopefully survive a few more lox hits for when they try to hit an enemy through the wall.

A core wood fence structure would be nice too: just a sturdier, and less stick-shaped, fence that doesn't snap but can be used to fence off areas.

💡The already existing decoration item "Hay/Straw" on the floor, has animals that are in a "calm" state heal quicker via their existing passive regen, when in close proximity to it.

💡 Let us either jump with mounts, or make them able to climb steeper inclines while mounted. (The kind that doesn't show grass if you grass it with the cultivator)

They can already walk up those inclines on their own, but when mounted, it's like they're suddenly carrying 5 extra tons and can't go up a ramp.
It's frustrating to use if you were to want to forgo portals and go around by boat and mount.
EDIT: To make myself clear, I don't mean to turn the mounts in Skyrim mountain climbing horses, but just to have them be able to go over 1m ledges you sometimes find in the meadows or black forest.

💡Hey I saw on a YouTube video recently some guy was begging to make wood weatherproof which I don't really agree with... Even though I love building. I think a good compromise would be for us to weatherproof wood for like docks etc with some sort of beeswax or maybe even resin? Resin would be better because you wouldn't have to create a new item for it. But maybe some sort of paint brush that we could apply the resin to the wood with to make it water and weather resistant? Or just through the hammer tool 💡

sharp panther Feb 24, 2026, 6:21 PM

💡I feel like the shields that certain enemies wield shouldn’t just be for looks… they should use them! They can do less damage when holding a shield, but block in between attacks. The shields absorb a few hits and then get dropped (not for the player to use but just dropped and then disappear) and then heavy hitting weapons like battle axe and heavy swords are strong against their shields, knocking them out of their hands and maybe even staggering them when it gets knocked away!
Seems like it would change a lot, but I think it would add much variety that only a few enemies carry.

Running around looking for carrots or turnips, is not beneficial sometimes you find abundance and most times your on swamp biome #6 and find a lonely turnip ...

💡
Please remove the air chamber beneath the wells on the snowy mountain. You can fall in and be trapped for several reasons: 1. It prevents you from mining beyond the well's circle. 2. If you don't have enough wood to climb up, you're stuck because you can't mine higher up; 3. If a golem falls down and breaks the floor, you still can't climb out because the rock in the well is too thick. Also, please remove the detector that marks objects in the center of the well and the air chamber beneath the wells. Thank you.

💡 Healing staff. You summon a branch of Yggdrasil and it creates a small green mist bubble that gives you HP ticks over time by standing in it. Something like 75-100 Eitr per use and a small healing bonus, doesn't need to be broken just a cool potential addition to magic.

slim socket Feb 26, 2026, 11:09 PM

#

💡Earlier access to magic (so people who prefer magic don't need to wait until so far into the game to change playstyle)

Keep it simple probably, so it can only do what you see monsters do early game.
purely for example:
Basic Wand: Dwarf eyes, amber pearl, bones, simple autoattack, faster than, but weaker than bow
Shaman staff: Fine Wood, Ancient Seed, Shaman Trophy, shoots some basic poison for flat + ticking damage. middle click for very weak heal over time
Surtling staff: Ancient Bark, Surtling Trophy, Iron, shoots a weak firebolt with short duration burn

Would need to rework eitr a bit, but some very base eitr once magic is 'discovered' with some max eitr and eitr regen scaling with magic skill could be really nice for people who prefer the mage playstyle to have access for a longer portion of the game.

The notebook idea could also aggregate material total materials for us in case multiple recipes and blueprints require the same items

The pain point I want to alleviate is having to pull out my hammer or go to the workbench to remember them things I need in order to build or craft what I want. Especially if I am out hunting for ingredients or materials where that isn’t possible.

💡Even though creatures aren't supposed to despawn once they start taming, it would be nice to have an easy to view indicator to tell when they have started. Right now, we either have to get lucky and see them eat or find a way to get right next to them without being attacked, which is incredibly dangerous to do with 2-star wolves.

💡 Every forsaken boss drops an extra amount of inventory slots, this links the progression to the amount of inventory space. By the time that you reach the ashlands, you need a slot for: 3 food spots, 1 barley wine slot, 2 (optional) health and stamina potion, shield and weapon, arrows/bolts, long range weapon, armor, meginjord and a trinket. Almost all of these are essential to survive. Not every boss needs the same amount of slots nor has to even drop some.

💡 Better reward option for defeating Geirrhafa.

Right now geirrhafa is the only hildirs quest miniboss that has the weakest rewards compared to the other two minibosses.

Silver chest just rewards you cosmetics, while Brennas reward is the harvest set and Zil & Thundrs rewards are eggs, maybe iron and possibly fireworks. Geirrhafa needs a better cloth reward.

Probably a cloth set similar to harvest that boost certain cloth stats other than just stamina.

Maybe woodcutter set that increases chop damage and wood cutting skill if both head and chest are weared. Vikings were known for been woodcutters historically so it would make sense.

Other suggestions for silver chest cosmetics other than wood cutting would be cooking, crafting or mining (all of them household btw and not combat) though I'm not certain which I'd pick or come up with. Some of the mentioned could be added for bronze chest if it lacks as well but silver is the one that needs the most.

💡There should be a search tab in the forge and workbenches so you can type what you want to craft and it comes right up (after you've unlocked it, of course). When you get late into the game, your forge list is pretty massive and it takes forever to scroll through to find each item. A search bar in the forge UI would be time-saving and life-changing!

💡Have food retain its maximum bonuses to health, stamina, and eitr for longer (possibly half the duration of any particular food?), but have those bonuses depreciate more aggressively to compensate once that time threshold is met. Especially in late game when health bonuses are at or near 100 per item, getting the full benefit of food is rather difficult simply because it takes so long to heal up to that point. Making food retain its maximum bonuses longer would ensure players can actually have the health, stamina, and eitr values that basic addition tells them they should expect to have.

That day and every day since I've been anticipating this feature, that scene with Moder on the back was brilliant! PLEASE go back and watch the trailer yourself and see what Valheim has been missing for years.

💡 hello, I think itd be neat for bows to have a special attack, something like a triple shot or arrow stab. 2Handed Clubs getting something like a spin to win would be cool. In addition, I think modifiers for weapons at higher skill levels such as 50 and 100 would be great. Damage oriented such as ; axes getting pure damage based off chop damage, swords getting a bleeding chance ( base damage over 5 seconds) , clubs getting slightly more staggering. For less damage and more utility ; knives cause a chance to get additional drops, bows have a chance to recover arrows, crossbows apply a weakspot ( slight weakness to pierce for 10 seconds). That's all I got, thanks for everything, you guys are awesome.

💡 An item or potion to help with some xp recovery after dying in the later biomes.

Reason∶ in the later biomes (Mistlands/Ashlands) not only we die more, but our skills are also higher, so, everytime we die, we lose a lot of levels and then getting them back is a very slow and sometimes expensive process.

So, my suggestion would be a potion with just a few mins of duration
　OR
An item with a specific duration that would break after a few uses/after being equiped for a certain time. (like a temporary trinket that couldn't be repaired after using)

The potion/item would allow a small percentage of xp gain while the effect is active.
In this way, we would have some help to gain back some xp just a little faster.

And this wouldn't feel like a free help, since we would gain it from consumables that take time and resources to make, and also have a limited duration.
And the resources to craft it would only be available starting in the Mistlands or in the Ashlands, for example, so it would be a very late game mechanic to help a little with the late game xp losses.

💡 Hello Devs
Just a "small" Suggestion from a german Valheim enjoyer.
Its possible in "ARK Survival Ascended" to download mods from a intern mod menu on PC AND console, this works due to a cooperation with curseforge and really boosts the time you are able to play the game as you can explorer nearly thousands of New mods over and over again.
This would be a really big Addition to valheim, which already has a big team of moders and people, who enjoy them.
Please think about that:(I'm not a developer, maybe its a bigger "quest" than I expect. sry for my english, I'm from germany as I already said).💡

💡Add a food mechanic similar to Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. For those unfamiliar, the first time, and only the first time, you eat any unique food item, it gives a small but permanent bonus to your character in some way. The following are purely intended as examples of this point, and are not necessarily intended as part of the suggestion itself:

Eating cooked meat or other health-primary foods might permanently increase your base health by 0.5, stacking for each such unique item your character has consumed over the course of the game. Stamina foods could likewise increase your base stamina by 0.5 or 1. Eitr foods might provide you with a small eitr pool per food item, as the character metabolizes and internalizes a small amount of the magic. Feasts, being more difficult to craft and fewer in number, could provide slightly larger bonuses, or bonuses similar to the power of the Forsaken whose biome they come from. The meadow feast, for example, might make running, jumping, and swimming take 2-5% less stamina.

This would encourage players to explore and seek out more types of food, as well as give characters a small amount of permanent progression that isn't tied to what's in their pockets or their skills. In the end, if a character has eaten literally everything they can, base health and stamina might get as much as double that of a completely new character, possibly with some other tiny bonuses to other stats.

💡 Hello from Argentina! I love this game i played +500 hs, so i want to give some suggestions that i would like a lot. Talking with my friends, we agreed that having instruments in the game would be great for the experience, something like flutes, drums and horns that we could play before a battle, they could give a buff like "motivation" in area (that can stack for every different type of instrument played) for some minutes and every instrument could be improved with its own progression (like flute of noble wood: 30s motivation, flute of iron and wood 1 minute motivation, etc), so if we play this instruments we could have like 5-10 min motivation and a pretty mystic experience before a battle.

sterile dust Mar 4, 2026, 10:17 PM

💡 Also, i know that it could be technically hard to do, but i think that a mobile fort could be awesome for Deep North; i thought something like a mount for a big animal that allows you to walk over it and throw things while the animal is fighting or something like siege tower that also could be used in ashlands. Thank you for your time

Like lets say a lumberjack, a tamer, a farmer, a hunter, or just someone like me as a reminder who got stuck in comfort on a certain biome.
Can have items to loot but isnt necessary, just some passive NPCs to scarcely populate the world with their own thing and simple routine.
It gets lonely exploring valheim alone(could also throw joke comments about the player or game).

💡 The 'Chosen Codex', a buildable base structure akin to a library that, when interacted with, will list all the creature types discovered up to the current biome of the trophy hung in that world, and a number next to each creature to show how many of those creatures the player/players has slain.

Somewhat of a glossary that you can also show to your friends, or review yourself and say 'Wow I really killed 1,000 greydwarves! But only 39 serpents. I could really use some more serpent meat.'

There could also be a little tidbit of info on each creature like once you kill 100 of that creature you reveal their weakness and their strengths.

💡 Add linseed oil made from flax. Linseed oil would be used to protect wood that isn't covered by roofs from rain.
Realistically it would need to be reapplied once in a while, (or not cause that could become a chore).

Additionally, linseed oil could be mixed with things like flowers and fruits to make colourful linseed oil paint, that could be used to paint wooden walls and objects.

Linseed oil could also be combined with bees wax, to create a tool protecting wax. This kind of mixture has been used to protect tools for millennia and could be applied to tools for additional non permanent durability points. This points would work as a sort of "over heal", where they would not be regained by repair, and the wax would need to be applied again.

💡 I don't know how the community feels about this tbh maybe we can reach an agreement on this

Having the equiping of armor be a channeled ability is ultra frustrating when running away, I wish it could be lowered to essentially nothing or just straight up removed

the fact you not only can't sprint, but get slowed down, is super intuitive and makes it so looting your corpse sometimes is ultra annoying.

Even if it's super annoying, I still think it gives a bit of roleplay to take a second to equip your amor, if this was the case, we could make corpse run make you equip armor instantly, meanwhile whenever you change armor out of combat it takes a second of channeling.

This way whenevr Im looting my corpse I can loot it and equip my armor as I run away with the corpse-run buff

Id be happy to hear everyone's thought on this

💡 max HP and max stamina should not start to diminish the second you eat food.

Currently food degrades immediately and at the moment food becomes consumable again, players are compelled to eat food as soon as they can.

Food buffs should start degrading when food becomes edible again, leaving an actual player choice between degraded food buffs and using more food.

💡 magical rain protection.

It's come up many many times the frustration people have with non roof attached pieces taking weather damage and it is annoying to need to run around your base repairing wood because it turns all Grey and yucky.

Suggesting to either add rain protection to the dome wards already provide or add a build piece(very small, could fit on top of the square on a vertical wood trim piece like an item stand.) Draw a perimeter and anything inside is not affected by rain.

I don't think using materials to modify and fundamentally change build pieces is a good play, but some kind of wx protection for outdoor build pieces is overdue.

💡 I hope some weapon, magic, or bomb can be added that in some way uses a bounce mechanic. One of the most satisfying visual effects in any game is when something bounces.

You shoot a lava ball at the floor, and it bounces then hits a greydwarf. Or you shoot a bouncing arrow, and it ricochets off a tree and hits a troll in the back of the head. Throw an eitr bomb and it bounces and explodes on a wolf, knocking them off a cliff.

The game already has funny ragdolls, this just adds a further physics element for players to explore😃

Interacting with E makes it bring up the map and show the location of the matching vegvisir. In mapless, it turns the camera toward the matching vegvisir.

This would let players share locations without sharing an entire map. In mapless, this would let players point themselves in a particular direction. The ectoplasm requirement would keep its use rather limited, so marking a lot of places would require either very lucky raid RNG, or exploring a lot of Black Forest, even with boosted resource rates.

💡 Few special weapons in earlier biomes like Early Axes that would require exploring around finding specific materials in certain point of interests. Those special weapons could be:

💡 A few suggestions that I think would be good are to add capes for each armor set unique in style. Maybe allow early ones to be upgradable with silver later for cold resist.

Neck armor, this seems like an armor that could increase swim speed or negate wet buff but be super light armor.

Missing pieces, especially as console has no mod support, for corner stairs, slopped stone cubes in 26 45 and 72 degrees.

Stacks of smelted bars for new build pieces, to deck out your forges.

Greenhouse mechanics for plantable areas in the mountains and deep north to give an additional use for crystal.

Buildable ponds would also be cool I know this is technically possible but only at sea level so a structure could allow for more flexible builds.

"Bearial" chambers for bjorn and unborn to and new POI's in black forest and plains biomes, maybe freezing lakes in mountains to introduce the ice blobs as an enemy.

Missing trophies, ie bat, crow, seagull, ash crow, twitcher greyling for completionists and trophy hunts.

Sorry if I add 6 months to development 😂

💡 Bears/Viles are in need of some adjustments/mini rework.

In current state, bears and viles very often choose their lunge attack to try to attack players in melee. The animation and hit box are such that it is often nearly impossible for the player to parry the enemy or even take damage(it is honestly difficult to take damage from bears and viles on purpose). With the game physics the way they are, the lunging bear also pretty often ends up on top of the player and floating in mid air(again, not requiring blocking or rolling to avoid.)

Not sure exactly what needs to happen, but either some animation tweaks or adjustments to attack selection logic would help improve the feel of combat with bear types.

💡 Construction Hotkey & Favourites
It would be really nice if there was a hotkey for repair, just the same as there is one for deconstructing. If I want to quickly slap up a worktable and repair by boat I have to menu select twice to do that, then deconstruct my table. It would be nice if you could just press a button while hovering an object to repair it too.

I would also like it if I could favourite objects that I build a lot. Toggling between crafting to place a table, and them to misc to build a portal is more menuing than I want to have to do when I'm trying to get a quick portal up.

💡the discovery radius when sailing is bogus. i can see several times that distance with my eyes most of the time and the radius is so small that i have to risk crashing into rocks because i have to hug to shoreline so close in order to get it mapped. this makes mapping shorelines far more tedious than it should be, especially since i can see the shore most of the time but it doesn't get mapped. Increase discovery radius when sailing. It would be a great QoL change for mapping the world and we wouldnt have to smack into rocks all the time just to keep record of what shores we have seen.

💡 Rework of the storage system: Maintaining items is tedious most of the time, especially when your friends are chaos personified. Give us a cellar building where you can store all items in an orderly fashion.

Storage space starts tiny and can be upgraded with a lot of ressources in each biome to a fixed amount of total slots.

The only way I can see to implement this is holding the use/interact button and a directional d-pad key for chosen option. Conflicts with the farming hold use function potentially but I'd rather press for each pickable to be able to make combat more satisfying.

I say that as on console you are pretty much a sitting duck if ever you need to open your inventory in combat as you can't move!

💡Rare Majestic Moose Encounter in the Black Forest.

I’d like to suggest adding an extremely rare wildlife encounter in the Black Forest: a Majestic Moose.
The idea is not to add a common mob, but a very rare, almost mythical creature that players might only see once in a very long playthrough. It would enhance the atmosphere and sense of wilderness that Valheim already does so well.
Concept:
A large, majestic moose that can occasionally spawn deep in the Black Forest.
Very rare spawn chance.
Non-aggressive unless attacked.
Extremely skittish, it will try to flee if players approach.

Why this fits Valheim: Moose are iconic to Scandinavian forests and would strengthen the Nordic feel of the biome. The Black Forest already has deer and bear, even trolls - but encountering a massive moose unexpectedly would create memorable “wow” moments.
Possible gameplay elements (optional, just a thought):
Unique and huge Moose Trophy.
Rare meat type.
Possibly a cosmetic cloak or decorative antlers.
The key point is that it should remain rare and special, not something players farm regularly. A brief glimpse of a huge moose moving silently through the forest would make the world feel even more alive.
Valheim’s environments are beautiful, and rare wildlife encounters could add another layer of immersion.

💡 I would like to see more cosmetic variations on armor and weapons. Like how you can customize your shields; It would be cool to have different varieties of troll armor for example. Maybe you could dye the armor to change its color. Use raspberries for red, coal for black, cloudberries for white, guck for green, etc. It would add personality to your character which I think would be especially cool in multiplayer.

💡 Suggestion to make Battleaxes deal 6x stagger damage(same as atgeirs can do to multiple)
using special poking atack.
My justification is simple: battleaxes have the worst speed debuf, the longest atack animation.This will make it little more versatile.

maiden tusk Mar 17, 2026, 6:06 AM

#

💡 have a sword or axe that 'charges' (just gets stronger) from movement. As you walk around it slowly begins to glow, and when you sprint it charges quickly. When you release an attack, it deals extra stagger and perhaps has an elemental bonus (similar to Ocarina of Time flame sword attack)

Currently there are no melee weapons except knives that you are encouraged to run around with. You preload Crossbows and Dundr so you can walk/run around with ranged weapons but with the exception of a knife it's a pure downside to run with melee weapons.

Plus it would be so cool let's be real!

💡Add deer sinew to the game
How to get it?
-You get this by leaving deer meat on the fire for too long, instead of turning into coal, it turns into sinew (boar meat still turns into coal as to not lock crafting of signs behind Charcoal kiln)

What it does?
-You craft the bow and spear with it instead of leather scraps, prevents staling in the early game so you have more for armour or the tanning rack.

💡 so I went through and looked at how many creatures each biome has: here's what I have
Meadows 5
BF 10
Swamp 9
Mountain 7
Plains 8
Mistlands 8
Ashlands 11

Makes me think, Mountains could use 1 more creature.

In Norse mythology, Garmr is "a wolf or dog associated with both Hel and Ragnarök, and described as a blood-stained guardian of Hel's gate"
What if we got a red, bloody wolf spawn in the mountains that's slightly faster and higher health, but not by much, than a regular wolf. It's an aggressive variant.

Alternatively, a few people have mentioned foxes, and a snow fox could be an excellent addition. A more passive creature in the biome, it would run and hide once it spots a player, but not to safety. It would hide behind another enemy, alerting that enemy to your presence. Foxes are known in norse mythology for their cunning and trickery and Loki had a fox companion associated with him.

💡New Trinket Idea: Sunstone Watch
Based on the likely real Viking sunstone used by Norse sailors to locate the sun on cloudy days.

Can be used to determine the time between dawn and dusk
Helpful if you want to get home before night or cancel a quest due to sunset

Crafting: Passive Trinket Item (no Adrenaline needed) that can be upgraded
Level 1 (Meadows / Black Forest): 10 Ruby, 6 Deer Hide, 3 Leather Scraps, 1 Bronze
Level 2 (Mountains / Plains) : 20 Crystal, 6 Wolf Hide, 3 Leather Scraps, 2 Silver
Level 3 (Mistlands and Beyond) : 30 Crystal, 10 Scale Hide, 5 Silver, 1 Black Core

When equipped as trinket: Icon appears at top with other status effects with the icon of the sunstone watch. Between dawn and dusk the suns position will be shown as a beam of light towards its direction. When facing north the light beam will act as a watch/sundial (beam to left-west means dusk, beam moves when turning like player icon on minimap).

Level 1 Effect: Brightness 1 (Poor visibility overall from Ruby, works fine in clear sky/clear night, dims or maybe doesn't work with clouds/rain/snow/night, no indication before/after dawn/dusk) (indication meaning a sunbeam vs moonbeam or icon of sun/moon)
Level 2 Effect: Brightness 2 (better brightness, works in clouds/rain/snow/clear nights, still dims but not as much, indication before/after dawn/dusk)
Level 3 Effect: Brightness 3 (superior brightness in clouds/rain/snow/night, still dims but not as much, indication before/after dawn/dusk) (does not* work at night time in Ocean biome during rainstorms)

*Doesn't work indoors/under roofs or in dungeons/caves

💡 Add attack-buffing meads/potions (fire, ice, poison, etc.).
Not sure if this has been discussed before, but the idea is that when you drink a potion—for example, a fire attack potion—it temporarily adds something like +10 fire damage to whatever weapon you currently have equipped.
This could add more build variety and make potions more useful in combat.

💡 Change the effect for bloodgem to something more useful. There is no reason to use it besides looking cool, you put yourself at great risk just to end up doing less damage than the Iolite chain lighting procs.

An idea is that it should do additional damage to enemies with more health. For example, hitting an enemy that has 100 health will do 135 + 0 = 135 damage, while hitting a major enemy with 1500 health will do 135 + 65= 200 damage per swing. There should be a cap to the additional damage, or else it will trivialize boss fights. (just random examples, numbers may not be balanced).

This will perfectly fit in with the other two gemstones. You have the Iolite for clearing crowds, Jade for immobilizing enemies and making space, and now the Bloodgem will serve as a great choice for going against individual tough enemies. Especially since the next biome might have quite a few of those…

Say for example there’s a landmass ahead and you can go either east or west, but you know in 30 seconds the wind will start blowing from the west, you can steer accordingly.

💡This is more of a code change suggestion. Currently items' primary and secondary attack share one damage type variable, meaning that it's very hard for mods to make items that deal completely different types of damage on primary and secondary attack (like only slash on primary, only pierce on secondary). If there are different damage type variables for different attacks, then it will be easy to have more customized items, as well as the potential of melee weapons that deals very different types of damage depending on the types of attacks.

💡 Seen a lot of suggestions of how to add a Shovel, but here's my take.

Shovel (Equippable Item, 2 hands): 4 Core Wood, 3 Leather Scraps & 2 Iron to craft. Crafted and upgraded at a level 1 Forge.

Three types of functions:

Dig Hole: Requires Workbench proximity. Digs 2x2 hole 1 layer straight down into ground. Does not break rocks.
Extract Bush: target an unpicked Raspberry, Blueberry or Cloudberry to pull up the Bush (as an item, stackable to 10) and the berries attached.
Plant Raspberry/Blueberry/Cloudberry Bush: Plants choice of Bush from inventory. Can plant regular green, non-Berry foliage with Wood.

For various gardening applications.

💡 I really want an excuse to use my harpoon in single player, non-sea combat, and at later parts of the game.

You could add little notches to boats where after you throw the harpoon you can attach it to your ship like an item-stand. And in lieu of stamina it starts to slowly lose durability.
Same vein, if you're fighting a flying enemy and you harpoon it, maybe you can special attack to stick the harpoon in the ground to bind it for a little while. This could also be useful for temporarily CCing a large ground enemy.
Taking advantage of monsters in little ways to do your bidding is fun. E.g having trolls mine copper/cut down trees for you. Having golems act as bodyguards against drakes/wolves.
Similarly, harpooning a vulture/drake or other large flying enemy could have it drag you up as it tries to flee opposite your direction, acting like a temporary taxi until your stamina runs out. It'd be a fun way to get out of a dangerous situation or return across lava to your base from afar.
On the extreme end, you could even temporarily mount flying enemies with it in a brief 1-button stabbing mini-game, like in monster hunter.

The harpoon is really cool and I feel like there's a lot of ways to make it fun and relevant for more of the game. It seems a shame to leave it as a livestock transporting tool and semi-useful multiplayer sea combat weapon. Please expand on the weapon's utility and add more/higher tier variants.

💡 Close the gaps in damage resistances that make some weapons too much of a no-brainer while others are almost useless, by adding some creatures with damage resistances and weaknesses which are kind of left out. In any biome, not just the DN.

The game lacks enemies that have immunity to Lightining or Blunt, resist Slash, or are weak to Pierce or Poison.

Some examples: a golem made of some metal (copper would be realistic) that doesn't interrupt lightning chains but is itself immune to the damage; a big fish or reptile with slimy but brittle scales that resist Slash but are weak to Pierce; some sort of mollusk that breathes through its skin and is therefore weak to Poison but it's very flexible and is immune to Blunt. And so on.

💡Please consider re-evaluating the material cost of dvergr stakewalls (not dvergr sharp stakes).

💡 multipurpose 'chain net' not exactly sure what it should be, use your imagination. Flail, net, grabber, hook, magnet, whatever is best.

For me, I see it serving 2 main purposes.
1: Break down Guck formations on Swamp trees and automatically brings them to you
2: Since it's a hefty metal, you can fling it a controlled distance into the water to retrieve items that are too deep for you to pickup

Side benefits include;
-Breaking down beehives
-Funny weapon for Deathsquito combat
-Could latch onto enemies on a ledge and drag them down to you? (if it's a desired feature, like Fulings that stay in their raised huts)

💡 Condense Melee Skills into One-Handed and Two-Handed skills.

As it stands currently, melee players are punished more heavily than archers or mages for switching damage types for different encounters.

Archers have access to different damage typing through their ammo, which is incredibly helpful for managing different kinds of encounters all while using a single skill.

Mages have access to a large variety of weapons that scale off of only two different combat skills, making it very easy to switch between them depending on the situation.

Unfortunately though, melee doesn't have this luxury, as your damage typing is entirely dependent on the melee of choice. What further complicates this is that most 1 handed melees play nearly identically, with the only real exceptions being spears and daggers.

Therefore I think it'd help encourage melee diversity by changing the skills to simply be One-Handed and Two-Handed melees, that way someone who likes Battleaxes, Greatswords, Atgeirs, etc. can swap between them freely without missing out on their XP gains, and someone who likes Sword & Board or dual wielding with Early Axes can also freely gain XP across their weapon classes.

EDIT: Forgot to mention dual wield melees like the axes and daggers. I think they should be in the One-Handed skill since they play similarly but either One-Handed or Two-Handed is fine. They shouldn't have their own skill since there are very few of them and it would lead to levelling issues.

💡 Hello! After playing this game for almost 1700 hours, having taken a break a few years past, with my love for the game reignited shortly after the Ashlands were added, my favorite part of the game is still stumbling onto swamp trees alone in the black forest, or a troll cave in the meadows, or pine and fir trees being found in the space between a plains and a black forest. They make the game feel more alive, the world appearing more interconnected, and the landscape far more interesting. I think it would be awesome if the devs expanded the area in between biomes, allowing for a more gradual shift in your journey between them, the traits of each mixing in the space between while maintaining the personality of each biome. Another idea is the possibility for sub-biomes, reusing assets from existing biomes. For example, a plateau meshing the plains and mountains, or bogs, more peaceful than swamps with added meadows mobs, and without the deluge of rain, or hoards of undead interrupting my fishing! More biome intersection could also provide the opportunity to get late-game building materials without sequence breaking, like a volcanic outcrop allowing you to get grausten and ashwood, guarded by a handful of ashlands mobs (or one large one 🙂 ). (I would love to have the opportunity to fight a ||morgen ||when in the late iron age to have more stone build pieces, or even a longship battle against a ||fallen valkyrie||, pelting it with arrows whilst sailing around its attacks!)

💡 Jumping on the latest dev blog... Ice Skates please? 😁

They could be special pants sold by Hildir.

Low armor, but far increased speed while moving on ice, and with better traction (since you can turn and skid stop with skates).

For anyone wondering, ice skates have been around for thousands of years and were likely invented in Scandinavia, so they're not out of place in Valheim at all.

💡 Weird idea that just popped in my head. What if there's another NPC that is also a dverger, like Haldor and Hildir, that you can interact then you can buy or make contract with some other dvergers available with specific names, class, and such as bodyguards or henchmen?

gritty lava Mar 26, 2026, 5:32 PM

💡hey, it would be very nice, if you could add new interactions with Hildir and Haldor. Maybe they could send trade carts to each other or to the witch. The trade carts could get attacked by enemies and it's the players task, to get them back. Then they get special items, that can only be found in the caravans like salt or something so that you need to find them to make for example very good food.

💡What if combat XP per hit was not a fixed value but a variable proportional to the health and damage of the target, compared to the health and damage of the player?

This would mean hitting a weak creature with an adequate weapon would give less XPs that hitting a big creature with that same weapon. Also, one-shotting a peon with an overwhelmingly powerful weapon would deliver next to no XPs, while beating a tank with little armor and a low-level weapon would give much more XPs.

It's meant to make leveling more related to the actual challenge, not a mindless grind near your base.

💡
(Only for armour and weapons)
The higher the materials quality and materials quantity, the longer the crafting time on the crafting station.

Powerful/Expensive gear would take longer to craft, so it would feel more realistic, since difficult materials usually need more crafting skills and crafting time irl.
This small change to the crafting animation would make it feel more realistic, and add an extra sense of value to the armours and weapons.
For example, a bronze helmet would be faster to craft when compared to a bronze chestplate, because it is smaller and requires less materials. And a flametal chesplate would take much longer than the bronze one, for example, because it makes use of materials that are much stronger and difficult to acquire. Late game weapons would take longer too.

Why only for weapons and armours?
　Because in any playthrough we usually only craft one or two of each of those objects when we need them (unlike potions or food, that we constantly need more, so it makes a lot of sense for the animation to be faster), so it would not necessarily make the craft boring or grindy, and instead would make it seem more realistic.

The negatives:
Devs would probably need to change the craft animation time for each piece individually, and I imagine they are busy with Deep North rn so this would only give them more work. 😅

Still, I thought this would add some epicness and realistic craft vibe to many gear pieces that are supposed to be so strong and epic, but that take the same time to make as any other common gear in the game. 😊

Editing: I do not mean for the crafting time to be super long ofc. Only like a few seconds difference between a low level armour and a high level armour, for example. Just enough to be slightly noticeable, but not enough to make it feel grindy.

💡
A Viking alternative to portals: Ports + ship fast travel
Currently, portals discourage sea travel and base-building across biomes. Ore teleportation (if enabled) makes ships irrelevant, but without it, logistics become tedious.
Suggestion: add buildable ports that allow:

Ship summoning — recall your ship to any port you've built.
Fast travel between ports — inspired by Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Not instant teleport — you travel in real-time with a chance of interruptions:
o sea serpent attacks
o hostile creatures when passing near certain biomes (e.g., draugr near swamps, deathsquitos near plains)
o leviathan encounters
This keeps ships meaningful, rewards infrastructure investment, and fits the Viking theme better than magic portals.

Half the damage of fully upgraded spear of same tier, but 2x damage on throw
Projectile speed between spears and crude bow
Built in stacks of 5, each costing roughly 4x more resources than stack of 20 arrows
There might be special ones, e.g. broadhead javelins made with black metal, dealing split pierce/slash damage, or silver javelins made of ygg wood, silver and wisp, dealing spirit damage and glowing...

💡Give an additional attack or two to melee skeletons, draugr (and elite), and fulings. Currently, all of those enemies only have a single attack, and it's the same attack for each of them. In terms of defending against or avoiding their attacks, the only difference between any of them is health and damage numbers, with the exception of torch fulings also doing fire damage.
As an example, perhaps give each of those enemies access to the heavy attack appropriate to whatever form of melee weapon they're carrying.

💡 Not sure if this fits here, but an idea I would love to see developed would be a Greco-Roman Valheim game after this. I've seen Dawn of Defiance and it doesn't hit the same feeling that Iron Gate would do - especially as DoD is against the gods but Valheim is in support of Odin: it's a very different feeling, imo

💡Amorslots, Backpacks, Sorting menue or smth because the inventory space ec is pretty limited and armor you wear and dont have to drag or like armor that gives you more inv slots

💡 some way to expand your inventory as you progress through the game. The inventory size works for the start of the game, but as you progress it quickly becomes crippling. It can force players to cut expeditions short because they simply can't grab any more of the resources they find. Plus it would add another element of the player being able to slowly grow their capabilities to do more and more exploration

💡 I'm sure other people have suggested it, but I haven't seen it yet. There should be a black forest round shield. Maybe requiring 10 core wood, 2 deer hide, and 4 bronze. There's a buckler and a tower shield, but if someone wants a round shield they need to use the wooden shield from the meadows. The black forest is otherwise complete, so it's a bit strange to me this isn't in the game. Visually it could have a bronze center, with small bronze studs keeping the hide attached instead of a full rim like the iron shield. It would share paint styles with the wooden and iron shield. 24 Block Armor, 250 durability, 45 block force, 1.5x parry bonus, weight 5, parry adrenaline 5, movement speed -5%.

naive tusk Apr 4, 2026, 2:17 PM

💡 enable reinforcing normal wood pieces and ashwood build pieces with Wattle & daub using wood and stone (not very accurate but there isn't a mud item for the game). Wattle & Daub is a building technique used by vikings to weather proof and provide insulation. another bonus for this is the it breaks up the monotonous pattern of the wood in a simple way. You can have it so Wattle & daub-ing a wood piece changes the main color of the wood to white, but if we add a paint brush tool and use existing foods as dyes, you can paint wooden build pieces to whatever color you want.

💡 idk if I'm the only one that has literally hundreds of trophies but it would be cool if we could sell them (like valuables) with the easier trophies (like grey dwarves) being around a coin and scaling based on difficulty. Would make them more relevant that way as well. (This is, of course, in addition to everything you can already do with them)

Would love to see something where if a chest is within range of a bench you can access it from said workbench. Makes things a little less tedious when running around the base.

Passive buffs for trinkets rather than utilizing the adrenaline system. Ive seen that I often forget they exist or prefer to not make them because the system can be a little unreliable (could also be player issue but yea, seeing more passive items like megingjord would be amazing)

💡 for 1.0 (or even after), drop new weapons so each biome has a variant of each weapon class (minus magic weapons). e.g. flint sword, blackmetal spear, bronze battleaxe

💡Adjust Spirit damage visual intensity and layout!

With the effect at this minute it can blind the player from incoming attacks, which gets you killed in ashlands. This takes away any skill, you basically have to guess when to dodge roll a 1-star Askesvin... if e.g. vulture is hit and the askesvin charges behind it. Please let us use player skill over luck rng to survive what is already very hard tuned content. It's ended more speedruns than I want to admit x)

💡More tameable animals and overall wildlife around the world. As an example, dire wolves and rams in the mountains would be really cool to see, with the former potentially being in the Deep North instead as part of a future version. A chance of a rare variant of existing animals spawning would be neat as well. It's similar to how you could find rare animals in RDR2. In Valheim they could possibly share a similar appearance or make a direct reference to beasts in Norse mythology (i.e. the Gullinbursti, which is a boar with golden bristles).

💡 I would join movement of scaling up exp system for fighting skills. Let mobs from higher bioms give more exp per hit. This way hitting Greydwarf and Morgen doesnt differ only in amount of hits you need to deal (and that the latter can kill you).

💡An argument in favor of placeable stacks of metal bars: the game is been in EA for years and people have accumulated tons of it.

💡Make magic weapons one handed. At the very least for Dead Raiser and Staff of Protection since they seem small/compact enough to be used in one hand. They would occupy the off-hand (like shields) and the secondary attack input would instead cast the spell of the equipped magic weapon.
Truly, I just think it'd be cool to Gandalf it with the staff/sword combo or have some occultist vibes going with a main hand knife and off-hand Dead Raiser.

sweet zinc Apr 6, 2026, 12:42 PM

💡I know „more stackable options” is sensitive topic, as we don’t need more of them that much, buuut - stacks of ashbones would be so neat. We have tons of it and since we have stacks of ordinary bones, this seems like a natural progression. I need my necromance chamber xDDD

💡 reduce the random enemy spawn rate in Ashlands, and increase amount of spawners and one-time spawns to compensate. I get that the difficulty in breaking into Ashlands is intended and part of the biome's identity, but the areas that have been cleared should stay reasonably clear, it's just a chore when I'm returning to base and have to kill an annoying mob that wasn't there few minutes ago when I passed through last time.

💡 putting bee hives next to crops could decrease grow time, due to the bees pollenating, but its not stackable it just covers an area around the hive, could add different versions of bees in later biomes that are faster or have wider areas to keep progress steady, or the opposite, were the more crops around a beehive the faster it fills up with honey

💡 Could you add that each enemy drops a trophy based on its star level? I mean, right now all enemies drop the same trophy regardless of how many stars they have, and I’d like to suggest that enemies drop different trophies depending on their star level, since the one- and two-star enemy designs look really great.

💡More Armored Enemies. I watched the JadePG developer interview, and it was mentioned that there were plans to remodel some enemies (whilst keeping the DNA of the original game creator). If those changes include something like visually adding armor, IE pieces of bronze armor on skeletons, iron armor on draugr, or black metal scraps on fulings, more intact equipment on the Ashlands enemies, it could impacts their physical resistances. Maybe a resistance to slash damage, as in the current game it feels like the best physical damage type. Enemies with shields should probably be able to use them, and maybe blunt weapons would be able to get more damage past, or break enemy guard faster.

💡 Trophies could drop 100% of the time for one-star or above creatures, to denote the (relatively) impressive achievement, and zero chance for a no-star version. This also matches getting an antlered head with a one-star deer's appearance. This ties the % chance to the chance to spawn a one-star creature, so you can remove the low-random drop rate of trophies like bear heads when they only drop for one-star bears or above.

💡 Wooden furniture could require some resin to build, excluding the log bench. It's very easy to acquire a large quantity of resin, even while using many torches, so it would be nice for it to have additional uses. The resin would effectively be used as glue, helping to keep the furniture together. It would also be nice to have some candle build pieces, such as a hanging candelabra, or a candle sconce, maybe requiring candles to refuel instead of resin.

💡many ideas for one, but, in a short, i wanna do beastmaster roleplay, it means tame many creatures as possible to make them fight in my side, many ideas i've thinked, here goes the list.
-be able to build traps without the necessity of hammer and benchworks, and you need to activate the trap manually always you put it in floor and you can take it again destroying or dismantle it.
-boars and asksvins can follow you.
-bears can be tameable and follow you.
-early game tameable creatures can be stronger with game progression(change damage, life and resistance), if you wanna stronger boars to fight in plains, so you should defeat Moder boss, for example.
-taking opportunity to suggest horses too because it can be an useful early game mount, and to have more beasts to tame.

💡Umpteenth attempt to fix the inventory issue without messing too much with it: an accessory that gives many slots with a very low overall weight limit.
It would be meant for collecting a variety of small items while being useless for hauling stacks of wood/ore, being by design the opposite of the Megingjord. Bonus: small items are automatically collected in the... pouch?

💡 Add a different setting, but for slots (x/32)
💡 Possibly move weight and armour indicators to the left side of the UI when looking at the inventory and slightly higher to make those 2 settings smoother when enabled. (weight on top, then Armor being just below it and getting replaced by the x/32 slots indicator when the inventory menu is not open)

💡 Remove the physical damage debuffs from the vilebone armor set. It is harder to make than the padded set, with lower armor values (as it should be), making it high risk high reward as it is. With the debuffs however, especially if you play with the vilebone claws, it is unviable making you oneshot by most plains enemies. As a result you end up cheesing enemies when outnumbered.

💡Make a TAB for CRAFTING BAIT in both the CAULDRON & FOOD PREPARATION TABLE.

Since food preparation table it delays your ability to craft baits till AFTER IRON AGE in swamp having BF unique fish forcing you to go back when you can craft baits.

These recipies are RARELY USED, so having them always be a part of your recipies adds a lot of CLUTTER.

This also ties to a greater suggestion i see floated around of FILTERING CRAFTING RECIPIES in any given crafting table.

💡 More npc behaviors, makes the world alive: supply caravans to intercept, npcs crossing water on rafts/boats, npc villages get developed a bit if not touched after being first 'activated'. Some sentient npcs go hunting at certain part of the day, or send scout parties to other biomes, they go fishing, foraging, loging(sparingly). Maybe a cool thing would be if the two towns of the same faction are close enough they start building a road between those towns. Different animals would be nice too, they can draw from the same loot table just making it a bit more diverse, can be paired with a deeper hunting system and different skins for the same stats armor pieces.

Lots of stuff here I know, but cool game, would like to see a more alive iteration of it. I know some of these were for sure mentioned in some capacity, but had to go because of scope.

💡 Fuling bonfires should replenish their fuel as long as at least one fixed spawn in the village is alive. Honestly, it's strange, you discover the village, fires burning, come back later to loot it just to see the fires have gone out.

💡 Meteors! After defeating the Plains boss, or possibly happening on its own, there could be meteor showers in the night sky as a weather event! There could be sites in the world scripted to have meteors fall on them, probably a rare chance that only happens once on that tile. The old Ashlands meteor asset could be reused, and once mined could drop some metallic ore, probably iron, possibly black metal? The meteor should be prevented from falling if there’s a workbench or player structures around it, just in case a player not in the know decides to settle down in a potential impact site only to have their base turned into a crater.

💡 Upgradeable trinkets , when you do upgrade them they reduce the amount adrenaline of the trinket needed a little bit or increase the duration of the effects of the trinkets

( it also can be mixture of both depends which buff is decent to the said trinket to not make it op )

for such an upgrade it will need double the trophies you use to craft it

(a way to have another use for the trophies too )

upgrading the trinket would only be available at max level in normal forge and at level 3 in black forge and Galder table

shy bobcat Apr 16, 2026, 1:05 AM

💡 Mushroom Omelette currently requires 3 Eggs + 3 Jotun Puffs to craft just one unit. There are clearly Blueberries in the icon, and 3 Eggs is a pretty hefty ask for one Stamina-food unit.
Make the Mushroom Omelette recipe: 2 Eggs + 2 Jotun Puffs + 2 Blueberries.
(This also gives Blueberries another use, past Ratatosk Mead in Swamp and two banners in Plains)

💡 Black Powder. Maybe after killing Fader, Haldor sells black powder. This obviously shouldn’t be used for guns, that would be way out of line for the setting and theme of the game. It could be crafted into small bombs you can throw, but mostly used as a mining tool. There could be a craftable barrel of black powder, that, upon taking fire damage, explodes. Certainly less useful for combat, but something that could be appreciated as a mining tool. Another possibility for how it functions is that it has a fuse, activated like the candles in the game. Although I do like the idea of rolling a barrel of gunpowder at someone, I think it would probably be a bit too strong as a combat tool, and step on the toes of elemental magic.

atomic urchin Apr 16, 2026, 6:48 PM

💡 having the ability to turn on a setting that allows dungeons to respawn after a long time, like 30 days and only if there are no player placed assets inside

maiden tusk Apr 16, 2026, 8:33 PM

#

💡 New recipe: soft tissue. Allows us to combine charred bones, resin, and ymir flesh to create soft tissue.

The logic behind this is that refined eitr's hardest ingredient is soft tissue, but magic is significantly more common in the late game, and refined eitr is used for tons of recipes. If you could use the reuseable ingredients I proposed, you would still need to go out of your base in order to get the ingredients for soft tissue, but you would have an alternate source for it using ingredients that make sense.

Charred bones was included because there's some powerful magic used to turn the bones of the charred into animated creatures, so using their bones as fuel to make tissue, then turn into eitr makes sense to me (plus more magic is introduced in that biome). Also ymir flesh has had very little use since it came out, and resin is an abundant material that is similar color to soft tissue, and would act as a binding agent to the ymir flesh and the charred bones.

💡 Just a small change but what about adding the ability to mention a player in the ingame chat

a way to mention a player in the chat by @ (writing the first letters in there name and then you choose it) them in game

(or any othere different way than just using an @ )

and maybe when you do mention a player in the chat the @ (mention) apper in a different color than yellow/white to make it easier to notice

a small Qol change that would benefit players that plays in public server (or servers that has alot of people in general ) or people who don't use voice chat in general and mainly texts in game chat

💡 the linen cape needs some utility. It's one of the prettiest cape in the game, but there's no reason besides drip to wear it. Why not a small buff (~10%) to XP gain ? Since its supposed to be the cape of royalty. It could not have the protection against frost as a trade-off

💡 I know the idea of armor customization has been brought up before. IF the devs decide to implement it into the game, I would like to suggest being able to adorn helmets with wings and horns, like the helmets seen in Opera.

lunar vortex Apr 17, 2026, 7:53 PM

#

💡Hello! I don't know if this was suggested before, but I think "vanity armour slots" would be something which would help differentiate players' characters more on certain stages in-game. For example - to still have bear armour visible only for aesthetics, but having iron armour as functional, not visible, with it's advantages. Of course with option for other players to ignore vanity slots, to not get fooled by weak appearance of someone with best armour

junior fiber Apr 17, 2026, 9:44 PM

💡 Resin collectors.

With a base sizeable enough to include everything, you'll have between 50 and 150 torches which need a lot of resin to refuel, so instead of spending hours on cutting trees etc for resin we could have a passive generation method similar to beehives and/or sap extractors. Maybe something that you can place on or near trees.

I've tried overcoming this issue a couple times in endgame by using lanterns, but those produce half the lighting the sconces do, are very dim in general, cause some visual fog, and are not cozy in the slightest. So fixing lanterns to make them a viable source of light could work too, alternatively, especially given how much they cost to make.

💡 Minor holstering rework
Holstering can feel kinda clunky in this game since it slows you down and makes you go through this weird animation, especially with magic this can feel kinda awkward, and its a killer in the swamp where getting knocked into water forcefully holsters your weapon. With how awkward it is, the fact you can circumvent it by swapping to and off the hammer makes it feel like it might as well not exist as a mechanic.
I think holstering a weapon should keep it on your back, but allow you to swap to another weapon while its holstered, then, pressing the holster key would swap to the holstered weapon without the slow move speed, allowing you to swap smoothly between two different weapons with some setup. Would feel a lot nicer and wouldnt be op or anything, i think with the combat changes to make everything feel a bit more purposeful, this could go a long way as quality of life

💡 It would be awesome if Fins of Destiny also protected you from rain/negated the debuff from being wet

Reasons:

It would make them fit in perfectly with the other Serpent drops, since they become usable at Swamp tier, and preventing the adverse effects of rain would be most useful in the Swamp.
It rewards the player for getting the Serpent Trophy (which even if it drops, is hard to pick up unless the Serpent is brought to shore with an Abyssal Harpoon)
For what they're worth, Fins of Destiny aren't really useful right now. They do only require 10 adrenaline for 2 minutes of use, but there's not much reason to go into water.

💡 blood magic xp goes up over time as you cast/use appropriate items (staff of protection/dead raiser) like how using every other item in the game gives appropriate skill xp for just usage. (using axes raises axe skill xp, etc.) and also no matter whose bubble breaks from staff of protection, the caster gets the xp (as they are the ones who used their blood, no?)

💡 A Substation for the Artisan Table that allows for crafting from chests within a certain radius. As the Artisan table permits some mechanical and autonomous stations (Ballista, Windmill, etc) having a substation for it that would allow for this growth inspired QoL enhancement would be really cool. Could be gated behind items found in any biome post Mountains so that evolving QoL has meaning rather than just being given as standard from the start.

💡 I'll be honest, my English is very poor, but I would like to see more variety in the ocean in Valheim. In the ocean update, I would like to see the following content: a specific merchant-ship captain who drifts in a specific area, with a treasure map that contains approximately three mysterious locations. These locations will feature mini-bosses similar to those found in Hildir's realm, but in the form of ocean creatures. Additionally, the merchant sells items that can be used to improve your ship (such as a shipbuilding workbench). 1) an island of broken ships 2) a cave where you have to swim by boat and there are sea draugrs. in addition to all this, I would like to see some variety in the animals you can encounter while swimming in the ocean.

boreal plinth Apr 21, 2026, 8:18 AM

#

💡 With axes and two handed axes sharing the same skill, similar to swords and greatswords, i feel like generalazing more skills might just make the game less tedious with levelling skills for weapons you only obtain later on.

Main example beeing to maybe make spears and atgeirs or knives and swords share their skills

I'd personally even say to make damage types (blunt, slash, pierce, ranged) the only weapon skills, but maybe show exp contribution of each weapon type underneath to not loose that summary of what you used in your run

I feel like this could even make Crossbows viable without having to grind levels for years

💡This game needs a Kraken!

The Kraken is a legendary Scandinavian sea monster, often described as a colossal squid or octopus that attacked ships and terrified sailors in the North Atlantic. Originating in Norse folklore and the 13th-century Orvar-Oddr saga, it was feared for its power to capsize ships, create deadly whirlpools, and appear as a floating island.

Real-World Origins
Giant Squid: Scientists speculate that the myth of the Kraken was likely inspired by actual sightings of giant squid (Architeuthis), which can reach 40–50 feet in length and live in Nordic waters, according to the Natural History Museum.

Island Deception: Sailors might have mistaken the creature's immense size for an island before it submerged, creating treacherous whirlpools.

Historical Sightings: The first recorded account is often attributed to King Sverre of Norway in 1180.

💡 Are there any plans or ongoing work to improve server-side multithreading or better multi-core utilization for dedicated servers? Right now it seems like server performance is heavily single-thread bound, and I’m wondering if scaling across multiple cores is something the devs are considering long-term or if it’s constrained by the engine architecture.

💡 The ability to plant more terrain features already in the game with the cultivator. By this I mean being able to plant grass, or patches of ferns, or other natural terrain features like that which spawn in biomes. For example, I love the patches of red flowers seen in the plains, and I would like to be able to place them where I want around my base. Or being able to plant the patches of ferns sometimes seen in the meadows/black forest, for the sake of having some visual variety when making a village there.

💡 Like the birch trees that naturally spawn there, trees grown in the plains using the cultivator should have their leaves turn the same autumn gold.

💡 Make Corewood, Finewood, Surtling Core and Tar for fuel.
Let's say for structures that require wood, like campfire, hearth and hot tub. You can use Corewood and Finewood. Corewood gives 2-3 points of fuel, while Finewood gives the same amount as wood. This way there are alternative options and it gives Corewood another use since it only has a handful of uses even for building. For cases like tar, it will be used in light structures like scones and would give you 3-5 points of fuel. I know it's a very expensive material for builders and you don't have to use it, its more for alternatives and it just makes sense for tar to be a fuel source.

For Smelter and Charcoal Kiln
Corewood and Finewood would give the same points for coal, and Surtling core gives 5 points of fuel on the smelter. You cannot use tar for smelting. This way we dont have to spam/hold our interact button for that long just to fuel our smelters/kiln

💡A late game upgrade for the frostner that can make it return to hand after being thrown. Cmon, deep down inside we all want to wield Mjolnir. Plus, we still haven't had any long range blunt damage weapon.
Even better if it deals damage on the way back, satisfies, still takes skill to line up the shot on the way back, and is on theme with Norse mythology, an upgrade for an iconic weapon of the game.

hollow patio Apr 24, 2026, 9:55 AM

#

💡 What if we had a renewable source of Ashlands gems in the form of a rock tumbler? We could have this new structure in Deep North that allows you to insert grausten into it; and after one in-game day, it spits out a random gem. It could be through a questline that you can only find enough materials or it limits only one of these new structures to be built on the map.

Or... Could future maps have more, well, Ashlands continents/islands on it? There's so much space on the bottom half of the globe that's just ocean, while it feels as if the placeholder Deep North has double the amount of continents/islands.

craggy sphinx Apr 24, 2026, 2:12 PM

💡When crafting, I would like the game to automatically access and use materials from containers near the crafting station, rather than just the player's inventory. It is terrible having to manually take the necessary materials out of a chest, store them in my inventory, and then run to the crafting bench every single time I want to craft something.

💡 Move the "Valheim" logo off my boy and his cool spear and shield on Steam game Library. I always forget he's in the picture. It has always bothered me a lot, how it covers an entire character and gear from the game. You can throw it on top left corner or above the campfire in the middle. An example is Skyrim's logo placement.

💡 Could you add a new type of wood? The first one shows cracks, and you can see through some pieces like the 45-degree angled ones. The Ashlands wood is very dark. It’s kind of weird that the wood you see from inside the tar roof looks better than the floors or walls made from the first wood. Would it be possible to use tar to give the floor and wall wood that same cleaner finish?

nocturne lagoon Apr 28, 2026, 4:22 PM

#

💡 Adding some better window options would be fire!

gray mauve Apr 28, 2026, 4:51 PM

#

💡 Additional finewood build pieces. It would be nice to have more decorated walls, pillars and beams, maybe with similar carved patterns inside them as some of the dark wood pieces. The base color of the walls should be close to the shade seen in finewood furniture, maybe with a similar grainy texture. To add onto this, finewood walls could be paintable, with pigment purchasable from either Hildir or the Bog Witch, though I’m not sure who would be more fitting. If paintable, it would be interesting if these walls were thinner, able to be placed almost like a wallpaper over structures.

💡 This has probably been suggested to death, but I recently joined the discord and haven't looked into it, but PLEASE, could you adjust the movement mechanic of climbing the wood ladder? The hopping climb is beyond annoying. But apart from that, everything is great!

💡 Add attachable rams to ships for better sea battles that don’t fully consist of people shooting arrows back and forth. Just imagine the cool naval playability that it would add. It would be cool if there were different tier ones as well that do different amounts of damage.

💡Newer to the Valheim official discord, possibly already suggested but-

It would be really nice to have a water toggle to hide/show the water in the Forge Cooler. Little thing but I'm sure builders would love the detail. Besides I need a bathtub for me chickens- erm I mean I need my smithy to have water for the big weapons I forge as a very tough viking.

💡 I would like to add a new feature to the courgeaph table, a new item on it to click. While playing with friends marked places can get doubble done and so on and a mess to clean up. And sadly if everyone dosent remove the same marker it gets returned back to the map when updateing. I would like this new item to bring up a menu or to turn on a remove marker from all players. This way if everyone has it on a single person can easily help clean up the map. If not checked or turn on that player will still have the all the markers just incase. I think this would be a good quality of life add that's simple and useful for cluttered map matainence.

💡 An actual good idea this time… I would love for there to be a feature on boats where you can attach shields to the sides like a true Viking.

💡Add rare loot to the drop tables of mobs, or something useful, the 300th charred bone I have is just taking up inventory space, would be cool if there was a chance something else dropped that was useful.

glossy swallow May 1, 2026, 10:20 AM

#

💡An upgrade for boats - a light source, torch-like for early boats, a lantern style for later, that can be placed on the front. It would make it easier to see sailing at night or through fog (not Mistland mist).

💡 Been playing for 6 months straight. I love the game and found the bosses too easy. I still need to fight Ashlands boss. I LOVE the mistlands and aslands. I play hard mode and finally adter a bunch of easy biomes, some difficulty. The constant onslaught of enemies in Ashlands makes for some hours long battles. Cooperation a must. My only downsides are 1. Give every monster more and less predictable attacks. 2. Make bosses move quicker and tougher. 3. It is annoying to have cheaters load stuff through dev commands then enter my server. I used mods to force saves on the server. It would be nice if we had this option in the game when we allow multi player and absolutely necessary for dedicated servers. 4. Kill console commands on the finished product. 5. VR mode. Great game asis.
Thanks

💡The Swamp Key being wooden. Out of all the boss drops, the swamp key is the one that makes the least sense. Why would the Elder have a random metal key for the swamp crypts? It would make more sense if it wasn't metal, but wooden instead, like a twisted root from his body in the shape of a key.

💡 Make Dyrnwyn more usefull. It is weapon even above endgame weapons that is literally obtained by doing 3 quests and defeating the powerfull Lord Reto. Yet it offers mediocre stats and is overshadowed by the lightning weapons. It needs some sort of buff

granite canopy May 5, 2026, 2:22 PM

#

💡 Few rarer weapons in mid game that could use mainly ocean materials to craft, forge as their crafting station:

New pair of dual wielded axes, which could require Chitin, Ymir Flesh and Ancient bark to craft.
New fists weapon, which could require Chitin, Serpent Scales and Ymir Flesh to craft. Could deal partial slash/blunt damage.

Thinking Ymir Flesh could fit as required material too, so the weapons would not become available too early as they'd have 2 gatekeepers: finding Haldor and defeating the Elder. They also could require some iron to craft if needed.
Damage vise these suggested weapons could be up to par with swamp tier weapons, or fit between swamp/mountain. Similarly like Early axes deal 30 slash damage, which is between flint axe (20) and bronze axe (40).

trim bluff May 5, 2026, 3:21 PM

#

💡 Bronze and iron bear traps. We have a new fearsome foe in the black forest and a bronze bear trap would be quite handy, currently only the black metal trap exists so an earlier tier defense/hunting bear trap would be cool. It would be an earlier tier defense trap item that could then be upgraded to iron and then of course the black metal one we have. Instead of having to wait until plains to craft it an earlier tier would come in handy.

💡Early fire mace.
3x surtling cores, 3x chain, wood. It'd basically work like a flail but apply some spiciness.

It'd play off the mace skill-set but it's secondary would be a medium ranged "projectile" that returns to the handle

lunar grail May 6, 2026, 12:39 PM

#

💡Throwing axe

Either a purpose built weapon the size of a hatchet or as a secondary attack replacer.

It'd open up an early midrange ranged option for high damage single target and make axes more viable as combat tools

💡 abomination raids if you build your base in the swamp instead of troll raids or troll raids completely stopping once you kill bonemas and an abomination and get abom raids instead

brazen orchid May 6, 2026, 7:25 PM

#

💡 Staff of Embers Charge attack - Hold attack button while holding the Staff of Embers to charge the fireball. It will drain more Eitr but will result a more powerful explosion. You can charge it how much you need but maximum charge is at 70 Eitr. Better charge would increase AoE, Damage, burn damage and projectile speed.

nimble lava May 6, 2026, 7:49 PM

#

💡 Give some enemies "armor piercing". Basically big mobs that are supposed to be particularly scary like trolls could ignore a percentage of your armor. If it was balanced right it wouldn't make them stronger while you are on tier with them, but they'd still be semi threatening even when you're further into the game. I think it'd be more immersive if the biggest scariest mobs could always do some decent damage.

narrow spade May 6, 2026, 8:23 PM

💡 Someone probably already suggested the white wood type, but I was thinking if finewood could be used to make some sort of "fuling camp" type wooden buildings or just basic ones. However, light/white wooden building blocks. It would be a builder's dream to have other style building blocks as well. Just think of all the possibilities that could be built with white wood!

distant gazelle May 6, 2026, 8:53 PM

💡More non-functional decorative items to build. Like random sacks and boxes to create clutter, small sculptures, flower boxes, shelves and cupboards full of objects, books, awnings, etc.

narrow spade May 6, 2026, 8:54 PM

#

💡 Another wood type would be wood stained with red clay. Very common throughout the Nordic countries and an old way to protect wood from decay. It could serve as a way to protect wood from rain and be a new wood color. It fits perfectly with white wood and the tar roof pieces. I would be very disappointed if this was not added. After all, it has long roots in Nordic culture.

💡Hello, I’d like to suggest a few ideas related to having a long staff in the left hand:

1-It could work as a 360° light source, enough to illuminate a small area around the player in a circle.
2-A long staff for the left hand that could work as a shield. It could have mechanics similar to a parry shield. I thought it could consume and require mana to function, with higher protection if the parry is timed correctly but weaker protection if failed — more useful but also riskier than a normal parry shield. It wouldn’t really work as a standard blocking shield because of its low defense, only for parrying.

I really like the idea of a mage using a staff together with a sword or another one-handed weapon. If it’s not possible to have a left-hand staff that can be combined with one-handed weapons while also using magic like the current staffs, I’d still like to suggest these ideas as a way to support combat without being as “strong” as full magic builds.

Mostly because I think it would look really cool. This is just a general idea, but there could be many different variations of it.

💡 Give all Tower shields a shield bash ability. While holding block, you can press the attack button to shield bash. If you time it right as an enemy swings (like a parry) you knock them back and stagger them. If the knocked back enemy hits enemies of the same faction, they get staggered. This should consume small stamina, and should require having enough block power to not get staggered by the attack.

This would give tower shields a separate use case identity that doesn't invalidate the other shields, namely crowd control for multiple creatures. The knockback prevents easy follow up damage, so shields and bucklers would be the less tanky offensive option of choice.

brazen orchid May 7, 2026, 3:01 PM

💡 A little suggestion to feel bit more cool in the game. When u have adrenaline active, your character will have a little yellow - orange aura around him. The same thing for Forsaken Power except it would be red - pink. If you have Adrenaline and Forsaken power at the same time you would create Purple aura ( i know that yellow and red makes orange but purple feels better for that power combination )

💡 Replace the secondary attack of spears (or add a tertiary attack?) by allowing players to switch between overhand and underhand grips. The overhand grip would remain as it is — rapid attacks with short range — whereas the underhand grip would make strikes reach farther, but slightly slower than the overhand grip.

oak torrent May 8, 2026, 12:06 PM

💡 After a successful parry with a sword, make the next attack animation faster (riposte-like). This would give swords more unique flavor, reinforce their dueling/fencing identity, and add more combat depth.

💡 Add all the missing build pieces! Why are they being kept from us? Why can't I make a Dvergr head arch on my xbox? Or a blue portal? So many cool build pieces and they're just sitting there doing nothing. Why? what are you guys saving them for? They work just fine so it's not like it's an issue with them being unfinished or wonky, and even if they were it'd be a 5 minute job to fix and implement them.. so why? Especially stuff like the dvergr heads, there's so many cool ways to use them. Or at the very least I would love to know the actual logic behind withholding them? I mean there's mods and devcommands of course for us PC users, but I feel like these pieces should have been included with the rest. Also implementing pretty much all of the stuff from the main QoL mods a large percentage of us are already using would also be nice.. And more world modifier options.. Weapons of every type for every tier.. Bigger and improved inventory with slots for food, ammo and armor (like why is something I'm wearing taking up slots in my inventory?).. Gizmo (as in let us rotate things in more ways).. build camera.. better crafting menu (a search function, an option to choose say bronze nails and craft it 10 times instead of having to click each time).. More mountables.. More carry weight (managing your inventory every 5 minutes is tedious and makes ppl not want to explore because they have to keep going back and forth all the time).. I'm sure there's more but that'll do haha

hardy tartan May 10, 2026, 12:28 PM

💡 ok, had to play a bit to be sure but i have to say this: early axes are a bit too much game breaking, "rarity" isn't enough.. Not for the damage nor the cheapness of upgrading, but the ability to get tons of finewood without ever leaving the very first very safe meadow you spawn in, i personally liked very much the "mistery" of having resources native to your "starting ground" you couldn't get until fairly later (oak/birch), even to find a shipwreck was way more dangerous as you was forced to explore far from center and most likely cross dangerous areas.. i have no clear solution to this, but thinking of it could be either (xor):

make e.a. craftable in a forge
drop their chopping tier to just regular wood (keeping damage and cheapness is ok)
make one or both of the head pieces spawn further from center (let's say 2000m, always in the meadows, but forcing to explore and face some danger to get that kind of bonus)

💡 A new Black Metal or Iron cart that can be pushed and pulled by 2 people at the same time. Higher durability and bigger overall like the battering ram.

💡 A bale of barley, bale of flax and/or bale of straw on the Misc. tab by the wood and stone stacks. If the lox could just eat off of it like a 20-30 portion mega feast, that would also be really cool :)

💡 Maybe castle ruins in the deep north to show ruins of an old civilization just like how you can find abandoned villages in the meadows, houses in swamp, etc.

sick solstice May 12, 2026, 4:46 AM

#

💡 A new recipe or maybe even new tool/workstation upgrade: Brush+Paintstation
I feel it could be introduced almost anytime in the game as its only a cosmetic use.

Just like we can craft colored banners by using berries/guck/etc.
Let us mix ex: Resin+Color Ingredient for a Paint that can color the base wood pieces X times.

Would be neat if we could paint only half a piece so you could make the outside of a house Red with White corners(beams) while keeping the inside Wooden without needing to double-layer with walls. Hold Brush+Shift Key to paint a whole piece otherwise its base is to paint wall pieces outside/inside or floor pieces topside/downside seperately.

💡 Rope.

It'd be made from plant fibers (you could collect these from small trees) and be a base component for every boat.

Its own utilities would come as

Lash, tie any two play pieces together, such as logs.
Anchor (separate piece) could be used to tether your boat down, risk of snapping in severe weather.
Grapple hook (also a separate build) could be attached to rope to allow Vikings to ascend heights (stamina dependant) or to grab items from afar, such as stuff you fumbled overboard
4.leash. it's a leash.

💡 A cage that acts like a cart to transport animals easier. Could also be used for PvP shenanigans…

💡 Boss rush mode.

Completely inverts the base gameplay.

You start with three in game days to build your base and fortifications.

Bosses will awaken one at a time, starting a nightly raid on your base that drops that biomes resources.
Wave amount will be customizable.

The boss will show up in person after a few days if the player hasn't died and will directly attack your base.

Clearing the boss will start the next round on the morning of the following day.

💡Bears should be able to be tamed with honey

This would allow you to attach carts to them and as they follow you, they would carry the heavy load to make the ore trips less tedious.

In the latter part of the game, you can use the lox saddle on the bear to ride it, maintaining its usage later on.

💡 So the base idea of taxidermy has been brought up a few times before. I absolutely love the idea, but I would like to add that you should need to use bones to construct the animal (models, dolls? taxidermies?) giving them an additional use, naturally alongside the animal trophy and hide. I for one would love to have a stuffed neck on my mantle.

💡 I feel like a new ocean update would be cool, so the farther out in the ocean you are, the more unique sea creatures you could find and kill, like a kraken or something difficult to kill. They could reward new foods, or materials to create new armor/weapons.

💡 I saw they are adding a shovel for the deep north to shovel snow. It would be cool to be able to shovel dirt and collect it or move it. The purpose would to be able to put dirt on structures to plant seeds/ trees. Make a little garden on top of your house etc. If you build a giant fortess bring soil into your walled off base and be able to plant a little garden.

💡 I think it’d be nice in a multiplayer world that when you do the spear secondary attack, others are not capable of picking it up unless it’s directly dropped out of your inventory.

The spear is a pretty popular weapon choice so we consistently have 3 people using it and throughout enemy fights I either end up with 2 spears, none, it’s a pretty big nuisance making 2 people having to step out of the fight to exchange.
I know there is auto pick up toggle but it isn’t too reliable personally, we forget it(it doesn’t cross our minds) because of the sudden fights we go through.

main meteor May 13, 2026, 1:40 PM

#

💡 My next suggestion is something I’m pretty sure has been said but I wanna go more in depth with it.

Resource multipliers is something I’m sure is a popular choice among many players, especially multiplayer, and it makes resources much easier to get and overall is a great quality of life change. The ONLY problem I have with this is that there are specific resources such as surtling cores, black cores, anything along the line of being a necessity to progress massively.

It makes it very easy to get a very large amount and have a big excess which makes that portion of the game.. a bit too underwhelming/easy (significantly).
-So what I think would be AMAZING would for there to be a larger slider to adjust specific items, after applying your global wanted multiplier
Example- I want to get wood ores and enemy drops more easily, but the multiplier is affecting these surtling cores too much! Global multiplier- x2, now i’ll set only the cores 2-1x

If it’s not possible to add it to the slider options as a seperate box, even commands would suffice for it, anything that works really : )

💡 Wisp pyres in the mistlands. You know those broken black marble lanterns the dvergr have? Let us place 10 wisps into them to fix them and clear the fog in a wide area around it, and place them more frequently around the mistlands. This would make it so we can actually see but still have to explore with the wisps, engage with the mechanics, and it adds a new minigame of finding the wisp light lanterns to clear big areas of fog

💡 I would love to see a hint for the path the dvergers took to the ashlands, maybe even to guide new players to the mainland of the ashlands.

For that i have two ideas:

More dialog from the dvergers. In the mistlands something like: "Wonder how our brothers in the south fare" or "The redheads rather ran to the south than fight".
A simplyfied map carved in some mistland structures. At the moment i think of it as an asset (maybe a marbleblock?), which dont give a marker on your map. A sunken in circle for the borders with some high blobs for some ilands and an red X in the middle south for the goal? Im not sure. For the structures? Ether in the infested mines or the abondend towers, because the dvergers already left.

The idea came to me after the last playthrough of the game with a friend. We didnt play since before Ashlands and mistlands were published and wanted to explore the new areas. We steered from the far right into the ashlands and only found some small islands (with no new ore or the fortresses). The next two islands were the same and we became frustrated. We decided to look up where to go and found out about the mainland.

💡 April fools update where you can throw rocks back at greydwarfs 👀 something along the lines of that.

💡 More varied Ashlands POI’s. I feel like we see more ruins in the Ashlands than any other biome. Once you’ve left the coast, however, it’s just a complete wasteland, as it should be to some extent. It ends up being a bit visually boring, however, especially as you spend more time in the biome. Maybe there could be more charred forests in the center of the Ashlands instead of being isolated to the coasts? With fiddleheads and puff shrooms spawning throughout across the charred grass. Maybe there could be the rare blackened tree with red leaves, containing extra charcoal resin? The Deep North frozen greydwarves also gave me the idea for petrified remains. Effectively some Greydwarves, skeletons, etc became petrified by the pyroclastic flow, or becoming ash statues like those seen in Pompeii.

💡 Turnip seeds in abandoned swamp house chests, players already find onions in mountain chests and barley in plains chests, so it would just establish that pattern earlier while tackling the complaint of turnip seeds being initially rare.

Warlock Trophy should have a 10% drop chance since they are so rare compared to warriors and marksmen.

💡 More fist weapons, just being 3 of them and not having a Mistland and Ashland version make it so using them isn't really a good choice when you can use other weapons and level up their skills instead. Fist weapons are also satysfying to use so this would be cool

red wagon May 15, 2026, 7:28 AM

💡Enemy trophy drop chance should increase by 10% for every star the enemy has (1-star = 10% base chance + 10% chance added by star / 2-star = 10% base chance + 20% added by 2 stars)

💡 I understand many of the weapon gaps in Valheim are intentional, but also that some of them will be filled as time goes on, such as the later additions of battle axes to the Mistlands and Plains. IF an aetgir gets added to the Ashlands, I would like to suggest that the base flametal polearm is a bardiche. It goes along with the more norman theming of the Ashlands, and would be relatively easy to make varying elemental equivalents for. Jade could turn it into more of a glaive, the blade looking like a metal leaf. A blood-gem could turn it into a billhook, an incredibly wicked design with tons of spiky bits. Iolite is a bit harder, but to continue on with the multi pronged theme that thundering weapons have, I suggest turning it into a guisarme, the additional spikes on the curved blade having an undulating lightning bolt design.

fallow hollow May 15, 2026, 8:37 PM

💡 The secondary attack for two-handed axes should be a powerful overhead strike (not an area attack) instead of the small shove they currently do.

Also, the secondary attack for spears should be a different type of strike instead of throwing the weapon away. Or at least make the spear return to your hand with a rope or some kind of unexplained magic. Once you use it, you are left without your spear, and if it lands too far away, you can lose it completely. Some spears are not cheap to craft.

fervent torrent May 16, 2026, 12:44 AM

💡 Make some spears have a spear brace attack that will damage any charging players or enemies.

💡 Mid game or mid-late game magic. Magic is very powerful but it would be nice to get some magic before I'm done with most of the game, maybe something weaker but still viable?

outer mauve May 16, 2026, 8:48 AM

#

💡 Rework jade and bleeding enchantings in Ashlands. Jade weapon isn't giving you a lot more damage in ashlands, because charred skeletons have immunity to poison. And bleeding seem to be usless for players, because you need to have low health to get damage boost.

Also would be cool to have more weapon types in ashlands, because it seems unfair, if you play all game with fists, and you walk in mistlands/ashlands with plains (or mountains if using flesh rippers). I would like to see some fist weapon and atgeir in ashlands. Same thing with dual axes. You get them first time in meadows, but then you need to wait for ashlands to craft them again.

💡 Allow repair of Forge crafted items at Black Forge (and any later metal working stations). As the stations and their addons increase, it becomes difficult to position all the stations close together, and to repair at multiple stations becomes more tedious and time consuming, especially if they are placed far apart and require running from one to another.

tough bridge May 16, 2026, 2:10 PM

#

💡 Put more restrictions on portal building. Make it an optional thing or not.
What comes to my mind is to require them to be walled and require portals to "solidify and connect to other portal" which would take from 12 to 24 in game hours. There's plenty other restrictions that could be possible like for example not being able to reclaim materials back once built. Or require portals to sync by a physical token which has to be taken back to the starting portal (kinda tedious but it's an option).
Reason for this is that currently there's only 2 options with portals, having them or not having them. I'd like a middle ground where portal use would be restricted to bases and outposts and not a thing that i can put down anywhere with just crafting station and a portal materials, teleport to base, then destroy it to reclaim back the materials. It is currently too easy to build a portal and use it instantly. No reason to even build temporary shelters since this is faster, easier, and much more comfortable since it gives access to homebase from anywhere in the world.
This suggestion is also tied to improvement of the traveling experience, give me a mobile pot to cook some basic meals for example. The world of Valheim is huge, exploring it should be fun and sleeping/eating is an integral part of it. That being said having to build a bed everywhere i make a temporary shelter is kind of an overkill. So on one hand we can't use blankets/sleeping bags or mobile pots but can use a portal that will get me to my bed in base in instant, being a default experience of Valheim.

turbid jackal May 16, 2026, 4:35 PM

💡 Gold is basically useless at some point. Most players in the Ashlands probably have over 10k gold. Make it so each portal trip costs a bit of gold, which increases as you defeat a biome'es boss. 10 starting with the BF and increasing by 10 for each boss defeated maybe? (can be adjusted)

fierce summit May 16, 2026, 4:58 PM

💡 An easier way of determining what area is covered by the "Player base" category to stop mobs from spawning. This would stop you from having to put down workbenches everywhere and seeing whether you could build to check.

💡Create Obsidian Deposits With Lava Blobs

When throwing a Lava Blob Bomb in cold environments, the rapid cooling of the lava results in an obsidian deposit.

💡 Solve portals' problem. When you go to the portal and see animation, you are teleportet immediately and wait near the portal for animation to end. This gives enemies ability to kill you while you can't do anything, and it's really unfair. It is better to teleport character after animation, or make animation faster.
Also, in multiplayer, when someone enables function "visible to other players" and goes to portal his icon on map will slowly move to place where he is. It's confusing, when you went a bit forward and don't know where your friend is

💡 This will make some mad, but can you increase the amount of health for tree logs that just bump into each other or rocks/structures (make them stronger to collisions with other objects other than the axe)? The domino effect for tree clearing is great, but once they're detached from the stump, can they be more durable unless using an axe on them. I would like to build an actual log cabin, but they just break so easily when pushing them into place. This is decorative and doesn't need to be as strong as stone or anything, I just think that hardwood trees should be harder in log form (I'm not trying to fortify my base with these). I plant trees where I want to build, so they don't have to go far.

turbid jackal May 18, 2026, 7:24 PM

💡 Remove or reduce the iron requirement from literally everything. The fact that I need iron to make most of the Mistlands weapons is just a joke or that the heavy armor in Plains is in iron instead of black metal.
Also a lot of the required structures also always need iron which is another bullshit, you probably need more iron than all the ores combined to make the useful stuff
I don't mind iron used in swamp stuff but the amount of iron required even when you get oustide the swamp is ridiculous

💡 Advanced stone cutter or stone cutter upgrades with additional items to craft from the stone cutter. Items could include more tables, chairs, flooring designs, stone path types, various sizes of full stone fireplaces with chimney (top of chimney would look like the top of the smelter or something). Stone windows, door frames (arches with snap points), smaller stone pieces for intricate work and sculptured pieces.

💡 More Black Metal build pieces. The only metals that have less build pieces are Tin & Silver (2 ea.) with just the Cauldron & Mead Ketill. Copper (16), Bronze (8), Iron (29), Silver (2), Black Metal (7), Flametal (11). If you pair it down to only pieces to build with & storage, not for crafting, it puts Black Metal at 1 (the chest). A black metal door that looks like the chest in the shape of the Darkwood Gate, black metal nails that could be used in furniture, walls, floors & beams. They could have green nails studded along them like the long heavy table or the wood iron beams. Black metal is so abundant and easy to get; no mining, no exploring for crypts, no wishbone searching... in fact add on a love potion for Fulings (I'll make another post, don't vote on the love potion) XD

💡 Grinding chitin into sand with the windmills and melting it into glass with the charcoal kiln = Artisan Glass Panes that would be clear. They could have vertical & horizontal panes in various degrees of slope that would act as a roof. Other decorative glass pieces would be available with the addition of crystals. Use silver for the structured frame so that they can be 1x1 or 2x2 m without needing supports. It seems that irl typical beach sand with shell fragments is avoided in glass making and ruins clarity :/ Industrial quartz is best (so maybe grind the crystals and smelt them in the blast furnace? idk I just want clear glass panes).

💡 for rain, instead of making you 100% wet as soon as one drop touches you, have it gradually fill the 2 minute wet timer as you stand in the rain. This could give the opportunity to increase or decrease the speed you get wet based on wind speed to help immersion. It could also make it so that when standing ankle deep in water, you have like 30 sec or so of wet, and the timer goes up the deeper you get, hitting 2 mins when you start swimming.

You could also implement this to other effects like rested buff, the more unique furniture items the faster the timer fills, so it always reaches max in the same amount of time. But this way, if you only have a minute or 2 missing from rested buff, you dont have to wait so long to get back to full.

💡 Stained glass/stained crystal wall. Im unsure if windows will ever be added, but maybe a system combining crystals with colorants (like blueberries & guck, etc.) could be added? Colored crystals would “unlock” new build hammer pieces correspondent to their original color. For instance, blue-stained crystal would unlock blue crystal wall.

💡 Spear suggestion:

Let some spears be tethered with rope or chains so after throwing the weapon you can press the attack button again to reel it back into your hand instead of forcing you to pick it up off the ground, using stamina depending on distance like how the fishing mechanic works.

Thrown spears could also ignore some pierce resistance due to the force behind the throw. Against fleshy enemies (Fulings, Trolls, Wolves, etc.), the spear could lodge into the target:

applies a small bleed/DoT while embedded
recalling the spear rips it back out for bonus damage

Meanwhile Skeletons, Stone Golems, and heavily armored enemies would resist or completely negate the embedding effect, making different enemy matchups more interesting for spear users.

💡 Bonemass boss power needs rework. It is currently almost non-existent. I agree with it being too strong in its original configuration, but now it is too weak. It is needed in specific situations that cannot be solved by movement and dodge-rolling alone:

Infested mines - Tight corridors and starred enemies make using Bonemass a necessity. It needs to be able to protect me to at least a certain degree, because I WILL be hit, when trying to hit enemies.
Forts - When using the battering ram to get inside a fort, I'm faced with literally infinite enemies, until I'm able to destroy the two spawners. I need Bonemass to be able to survive the onslaught until I have destroyed the spawners.
The Queen - Without Bonemass, fighting her as a tank is currently almost impossible without using extensive dodge-rolling. In its current state, Bonemass can no longer mitigate the brunt of her attacks, so I now can no longer fight her as dedicated tank. I can block her attacks, but she just sends me flying into the next biome. I have no problems with all other bosses, because I can tank them the usual way (Yes, even Fader).

💡 With fire hazard on, make it that destroyed piles of wood drop only half amount coal of the wood that was required to build. Example if wood pile takes 50 wood to build, make it drop only 25 coal.
The reasoning here is to make kilns still relevant for the gameplay and not just an immersion thingy. That is limit the amount of cheese when destroying a wood pile for purpose with a fire arrow or set it on fire in other ways.

💡Make a new assortment of gems in the deep north themed around frost/ice, shadow/stealth, and ghost/multiplication.

frost/ice gem — adds frost damage to your weapon and applies a slowing effect to enemies on hit, gradually freezing them with repeated strikes.
shadow/stealth gem — killing an enemy grants 15 seconds of invisibility and completely resets enemy aggro, allowing players to chain stealth attacks and reposition between kills.
ghost/multiplication gem — your attacks leave behind spectral afterimages infused with ectoplasm. When you swing a weapon like nidhogg, a ghostly arm and weapon appear a split second later to repeat the attack once, creating a multi-hit effect at a much weaker potency, so nidhogg does 135 damage for example at level 1 and the repeat would only do 68.

💡 Battle-Axe rework. With ~2210hrs in Valheim I can say BA's are my favourite weapon class, but they need some help. There are effectively three AoE melee weapons: sledge, atgeir, and BA. The sledge and atgeir do their jobs well with their AoE having big knockback to gain oneself some space. The BA however has large knockback on its secondary stab (good) but by far too much KB on their primary combo chain. You can mitigate this somewhat by delaying the strikes in the chain as long as possible while holding sprint and pressing forward during the combo but this is not a great solution. The other way to reduce knockback, which is I think the vision behind the BA in general, is to cleave multiple enemies. But this has its own problems as it is difficult to group enough enemies in the frontal arc, and the stagger from the initial primary combo strike is rarely enough to stop the enemies from striking through the chain combo. Getting hit here makes it undesireable to even attempt to cleave multiple foes, and this will often cause you to be knocked back so the second strike in the chain will miss.

My suggestions for the BA are:

(1) Split the damage between slash and blunt on the primary strikes. BA's heft make blunt reasonable and will allow the class to be useful in more biomes, especially ashlands.
(2) Knockback on the first two hits of primary swing chain should be reduced in order to make the 3 hit chain a regular occurence. Instead of high knockback give the primary strikes damage an internal stagger multiplier. This will make the function of the BA a central arc AoE weapon focusing on stagger vs. space creators like the sledge/atgeir.
(3) Secondary strike leave as is, but remove the blunt component and keep it 100% slash.
(4) If an Ashalnds BA is implemented, leave all gem functions similar to other weapons however the blood gem could also do some fire damage similar to dyrnwyn as well as the usual damage bonus.

💡 The crossbow should be introduced in the plains. This would avoid introducing as many new skills all at once in the mistlands which would make it easier for players to experience more of the game as they progress. It would also let players make use of the large quantity of bones they tend to get from tar pits.

💡 so,,, hear me out. this one is about skills and it seems pretty easy. you have a skill for fishing. why not a skill for sailing. its not easy to be a sailor... as you sail you gain levels up to 100. and have it give you a sailing speed boost up to 20% increase so skill level 25 would = 05% sailing speed increase at skill level 100 20% bonus... it basically is storywise logical.. a weathered sailor would have fair winds and be able to tack sail better when facing oncoming winds...

💡 Animal hide roofing pieces similar to the roofs seen in Fuling villages. Since hide would realistically be more flexible than materials like wood or shingles, it could also introduce additional roof angles beyond the standard 45° and 26° pieces. The new angles could be based off the shapes/slopes that are already used in Fuling village designs.

💡 Single spikes planted into the ground. Coming in 1m and 2m variety for smaller and larger mobs respectively, they're another way to mount trophies around your base, one that looks better and makes more sense than using a corewood log and an item frame. I always make a field of severed troll heads around my base, something I'm sure other players can relate to. The texture could be taken straight from the palisade or sharp stakes, basically just one of the sharpenned logs plunged into the ground.

💡 Idk if this has been talked about at all, but I think it'd be really amazing once everything is all wrapped up doing a water expansion, just add basic diving so I can loot stuff thats fallen into water easier. Maybe add some wrecks at the bottom of the ocean. Even a naval expansion would be fun. wild ghost ships that have to be boarded. And maybe some boat expansions and specific build pieces for boats to specialise in certain areas. An anchor to dock anwhere anytime, add a rope balista to hunt down the sea serpents (also maybe make them stonger and more threatening). I'd also like to see more aquatic/ariel enemies (a kraken, giant sea eagle) i feel very safe on the water in a game that makes every square inch of the world a death trap. I also feel like if for some reason u see this and like what I thought up I feel the water should be accessible to any biome but also worth it at any biome. Like in the meadows you can take a raft and loot some wrecks closer to the surface. But in the Plains you can siege a ghost Viking war ship or smth. I really love valheim and wanna play it for the rest of my days. I just feel for how much time u spend sailing around the place trying to go back to your stuff cause you couldn't place a portal in time. Going from swamp to swamp scavenging iron. There should be more danger, fear but also potential plunder.

Some examples i though of could be a plains x mist lands, with a new type of lox better suited to navigating vertical terrain. Or a plains x mountain where you could find frost fullings. Different armour sets could be made aswell offering new set bonuses (going off if the old armours get set bonuses / re looked at). Each tier of progression could have different heavy and different light armours, with different sub biomes offering different set bonuses suited to your play style and needs.

💡 Add wind up attacks for all weapons. When holding primary attack button down, charge up an attack that triggers on button release. Attack should be fully charged after 1-2 seconds (depending on weapon); if released before does less effective attack than single primary attack. While holding down slowly drain stamina.

This would add a little more depth to combat.

💡Skull Splittur, the Mistlands battleaxe, feels a bit underwhelming. It preforms well, don’t get me wrong, but it doesn’t feel magical. As the blade is dipped visibly drenched in eitr, I believe it should deal some lightning and poison damage, alongside slash, in the same way frostner is split between 3 damage types. To balance it, the current slash damage should be reduced, the deficit made up by the elemental damage, the specific ratio I do not know. It would be cool if it crackled with green eitr energy as you hit enemies with it, making it feel far more unique.

One could also find stories within the world, histories, or whatever the devs think would be interesting as very rare dungeon loot, or inside random points of interest. I always loved the lore stones you can find, and I really think this owuld be a great addition to the world. Second, I would love to see graphic novels about the world of Valheim in the Merch store. There's so much that can be done with the world, and I'm really interested what could exist in the world outside the game when we play it.

💡 Add fishing nets! Either handheld ones that can catch up to five fish, or larger ones you cast off the side of a boat that catch up to ten fish as you sail along. Vikings certainly used them.

💡 After a thousand hours of valheim I can safely say: longhsip and drakkar suck. Their speed and inventory is a boon, but their mobility is just crap. On open sea both bigger ships excel, but theres a lot of navigating through channels and underwater rocks. Mapping your world is really only comfortable enough with a karve.
So: Tarring ships, specifically, tarred karve. Speed with karves mobility is something I need. Doesn't need heat res or more durability or anything like that but speed.
Also traps for hares.

💡 Let us spearfish with the Abyssal Harpoon. You must be in the water for it to work, dive in with the harpoon equipped and throw it at fish.

💡 A way to get more gemstones in Ashlands:
The fortresses get fixed up, repopulated and the chests get refilled after a certain amount of time has passed.
Basically a whole new instance of a fortress but at the same spot as the previous fortress.

Though there should be a way to claim a fortress so that a player can use a fortress as a base of operations.
Maybe adding a limit to how much fortresses you can claim.

As long as it isn't claimed the fortress get's repopulated and fixed, any building the player might have done is destroyed by the new denizens of the fortress.

💡 Give heavy armor some sort of buff or change the way damage is calculated at a certain point. Currently with the way damage is calculated in Valheim running heavy armor makes very little difference compared to light especially in the later biomes with the bonuses that light armor gets.

For example the ask set 96 armor points and flametal set 126 armor point have very little damage difference
When taking damage from vultures, twitchers and marksmen ask set only takes around 21-31 damage while the flametal set takes around 16-24. That's around 5-7 more damage taken by the Ask set.

When comparing for example the charred warrior or morgen which deals 160 damage, ask set takes 51 and flametal 66.

Now the benefits of the Ask Set are: -10% run stamina usage, -10% jump stamina usage, -20% attack stamina usage and 10% more pierce damage. (also 10% movement speed since the heavy armor has a movement penalty) For the measly extra damage you take, you get so many more benefits compared to the Flametal set

Looking in most scenarios and the examples shown, the heavy armor class in general needs a huge change or buff

broken violet May 29, 2026, 8:20 AM

💡 What about new mountable animal? Right now we only have lox and asksvin but they both are kinda in the endgame. The start of the game is a bit annoying to me especially before swamp where the distances can get quite long and many times traveling by boat is not efficient. Besides early game foods do not give much stamina aswell for running.

I know we already have so much content in black forest but still. Maybe it is an idea?

💡 Give Tower Shield an ability to enter a rooted state if you double click block where you can’t move but get 100% block armor but consume more stamina with your attacks + stamina regeneration a bit slower.

(You can add/change what you would feel good to this ability, I just think the ability in general would be cool)

💡 Serpent scale ship/boat. It would give us another way to use serpent scales. Let's say the boat is lean and narrow like a serpent, but due to using the scales of a serpent it is able to glide through the water very well. it would haves less inventory space than a longship but more than a karve. it would also have more durability than a karve and the same as a longship due to it being covered in serpent scales.

💡

I have an idea for a new type of weapon in the game. I would really like to see a weapon that spins during attacks, similar to the spinning “Klusha” weapon from Atomic Heart. I think this mechanic would fit Valheim very well, especially if the weapon was rare and unique.

While spinning, the weapon could deal damage to multiple nearby enemies at the same time and have special visual effects and unique animations. For balance, it could use a lot of stamina or require rare materials to craft.

It could also have a special ability, such as a stronger spinning attack for a short time or the ability to push enemies back. I think a weapon like this would make combat feel more dynamic, fun, and visually impressive.

I really enjoy Valheim and the way you continue developing the game, so I wanted to share this idea with you. Thank you for your hard work and for creating such an amazing game!

💡 Dundr should load by clicking primary attack, not immediately always whenever it can. Dundr wants to be a close range weapon used in the thick of battle and having to holster or sprint until you’re ready to load is weird, draining stamina and eityr you don’t want or need to use. You should be able to load when you choose.

💡 add a new toggle in accessibility in settings that displays detailed gear information. For example, when toggled on, items that give “resist vs [x]” now also include “(0.5x damage from [x])”. Im not sure what else it should display, but it should display more and i think you get the idea
Per @dapper spire , also include chop and pickaxe damage

💡 split piercing damage into two categories, piercing and stabbing. Piercing is for bows. Stabbing is for melee weapons. Then you can have pierce resistant enemies to keep bow in check without completely destroying the viability of a whole slew of melee weapons (spear, polearm, dagger, etc)

💡 When you reload a ballista or ripper and switch to another weapon, the crossbow gets unloaded. Please change this, it’s soooooo annoying. It doesn’t make sense for a loaded crossbow to become instantly unloaded.
