About this mod Author’s original text
OttoAura
Version 1.5.3, built and Harmony-checked against Valheim 1.0.17.
Your ward heals you and repairs your gear while you stand inside it. Turn on AuraPay in OttoPay and the Merchant Guild throws in a few more services.
What you get
- Ward aura. Stand in a ward you own or are permitted on. It heals you and repairs the gear you wear, 1 coin per item per tick.
- AuraBoost. Roads and trails drain less stamina. Half on dirt paths, wood and metal, none on paved roads and stone. Free.
- AuraMove. The Merchant Guild moves a chest, crafting station or piece of furniture a short way for 5 coins, contents intact.
- AuraTrade. Inside your ward, sell rubies, amber and other valuables straight into your Merchant Bank balance.
- AuraDispel. A lit Wisp Torch clears the fog around it, in any biome. Free.
Every service except AuraDispel needs AuraPay on in the inventory window. The feature guide has the full rules for each one.
How to use it
Ward aura
- Switch the ward on and stand inside it. Hover the ward to see what it does and how far it reaches.
- Repairs come out of your Merchant Bank balance. When it runs dry, repairs stop and healing keeps going.
AuraBoost
- Turn AuraPay on, then run on a path, road or floor that players made.
- A status icon shows while it works. It works anywhere, not only in a ward.
AuraMove
- Take out the hammer and pick Guild Move from the Merchant Guild tab, or press LeftAlt + M.
- Click an object, aim it like a build piece, and click again to set it down. Right click cancels for free.
- Chests, furniture, crafting stations and beehives move. Walls, floors and anything holding the building up stay put.
AuraTrade
- Stand in your ward and open the inventory. Pick up a valuable and drop it on your Merchant Bank balance to sell it.
- To sell everything you carry, look at the ward and press LeftShift + E.
- The Guild keeps 5 coins plus 5% of each sale, so one big sale beats several small ones. Each valuable's tooltip shows what it pays.
AuraDispel
- Light a Wisp Torch. The fog clears over the same ground where the torch clears the Mists, seen from inside or out.
- Ring a base with a few torches to keep it clear in foggy weather. Water, smoke, the Mists and the sky keep their haze.
Configuration
Settings live in BepInEx/config/potto007.OttoAura.cfg. Change them in a text editor or in game with Configuration Manager. With OttoAura on the server, the server's values win and clients follow them. Every setting is synced except ShowHealText and MoveKey.
Each table below is one section of the file. The first covers three small ones, General, Aura and CraftingStations.

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:
