Features
Detailed info in the wiki. Here's the short version:
- Adds throwing weapons the game:
- Javelins
- Axes
- Shuriken
- Craftable at the appropriate workbench, eg. bronze javelins at the forge.
Config
Attention: To edit the config, the Configuration Manager is the most user friendly way. This is a separate mod. Please download and install it.
Press F1 to open the mod's configuration panel.
You can also edit the configs manually. Almost everything can be tweaked to your liking. For a complete list of all configuration options, please look here.
Important: As of 1.1.0, local player's items dynamically update to reflect config changes so you can test tweaks immediately without having to log out & in again. However, for all items in the world to be updated, logging out & in again is required.
Pending Improvements
The following improvements have been noted, but won't be implemented until someone throws me some doubloons for it, or I find myself really bored with nothing to do someday.
- Right click to aim, like a bow
- Decrease shuriken spread with knife skill increase
- Shuriken auto-equip next weapon once broken

You can find the github here.
Special Thanks
- Drago for commissioning the mod.
- Clint Bellanger for the Shuriken models.
- Leinnan for the Slavic Axe Pack. CC-BY 3.0 stipulates I must indicate whether changes were made: Yes, the texture was resized to be 32x32 and passed through noise filters in Gimp to make it grainy and lower resolution. This is so it blends in better with the Valheim aesthetic.
- 007LEXX for the Russian translation.
- wuzhitian for the Chinese translation.

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:
