About this mod Author’s original text
Barrier HP Display
A small Valheim 1.0 display add-on. It does not change barrier strength, damage,
duration, recasting, or Staff of Protection behavior.
This is a standalone BepInEx mod. Better Staff Of Protection is optional and
is not required. It works with Valheim's vanilla Staff of Protection.
While Magic Barrier is active it keeps the normal countdown and adds live
remaining / maximum barrier HP on the same line. It also adds a Barrier HP
line to the Active Effects description.
Install
Place BarrierHPDisplay.dll anywhere below BepInEx/plugins, then restart
Valheim. It may be used alongside Better Staff Of Protection
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
