About this mod Author’s original text
Starting Eitr Bonus
Why don't you start with any Eitr? You are a dead Viking brought back to life by Odin that magicly respawns when you die. This is a small mod that adds a configurable base Eitr bonus. This mod patches Valheim's total food stat calculation and adds the configured amount to Eitr as a base bonus.
You could set BaseEitrBonus to any value from 0 to 250. The default config gives the player 25 Eitr as a base amount, the same base value as your starting health. Eatting food that gives Eitr will add to this amount.
Configuration
After the first launch, edit:
BepInEx/config/com.badbatch.valheim.startingeitrbonus.cfg
Options:
[General]
Enabled = true
BaseEitrBonus = 25
Warning:
This mod is a learning experience for me. I'm not good at programmer, so I used AI to help generate some parts of the code. As I learn more, I will slowly rebuild this mod by hand.

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:
