DangerousEnemies SMALL Edition
This mod lets you customize how Valheim’s smaller enemies move and attack — including how often they strike and how they circle around you.
Main Features
Attack Intervals
- You can control how often enemies attack.
- Each attack interval is a random value chosen between a minimum and maximum range that you set.
- This random interval is applied once when the enemy performs an attack.
- It only changes if the enemy switches to a different type of attack (for example, from a punch to a throw).
- This helps make enemies’ attack patterns feel less repetitive and more varied.
Circling Behavior
- You can also adjust how enemies circle around you before attacking. There are three settings:
- Circling Distance – How far away the enemy stays while circling you.
- Circling Duration – How long the enemy keeps circling each time.
- Circling Interval – How long the enemy waits before circling again.
Tips
- By default, all circling values are set to 0, which means enemies will attack more directly and more often.
- If enemies are attacking too frequently, try increasing the circling values to make them move around more between attacks.
- Testing your configuration changes in a separate world is always a good idea.
Installation
- Install using a mod manager,
or
- Manually place the.dll file in your game’s BepInEx\\Plugins folder.
Changelog
1.0.0 Initial release
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.
