WeaponArts

WeaponArts

Active abilities ("arts") keyed to the weapon in your hands. Press one key (default

C) and the effect depends on what you hold.

| | |

|---|---|

| | |

| Crushing (atgeir): every hit staggers | Taunt (tower shield): the monsters come to you |

| | |

| Rally (sledge): heal yourself and your allies | Berserk (battleaxe): less damage taken, HP regenerates |

Focus (bow): the next shots are critical, counted in the HUD

The HUD: ready, active, cooldown

Arts by weapon:

| Weapon | Art | Effect |

|---|---|---|

| 2H sword | Onslaught | more damage for a window |

| 1H sword | Bloodthirst | lifesteal from damage dealt |

| Battleaxe | Berserk | take less damage and regenerate HP |

| 1H axe | Bleed | physical damage over time |

| 1H spear | Rend | the target is exposed: more damage from every player |

| Pike | Impale | ignore resistances + extra damage |

| Atgeir | Crushing | every hit staggers (not bosses) |

| Knives | Envenom | strong poison on every hit |

| Fists | Fury | a critical hit on every blow |

| Bow | Focus | the next shots are critical |

| Crossbow | Piercing Bolts | bolts ignore resistances + extra damage |

| 2H sledge | Rally | heal yourself and allies around |

| 1H mace | Mend | heal the allies in front of you (the greydwarf shaman's green spray) |

| Staves | Eitr Surge | more magic damage |

| Tower shield | Taunt | pull the monsters around onto you and take less damage |

• Strength and duration grow with the weapon's tier and your weapon skill. Every art has

its own cooldown plus a shared global cooldown.

• Effects only ever touch creatures (PvP-safe); bosses take a reduced share and are

immune to stagger.

• Players without the mod see every effect (vanilla prefabs) and receive heals. With

09 Proxy enabled, a nearby modded player can also act for them: they use the

/challenge emote or type art in chat.

• The server's balance settings apply to every client with the mod.
• English and Russian text (follows the game's language, or set 01 General > Language).
• All settings live in BepInEx/config/j1ga.weaponarts.cfg; with BepInEx

ConfigurationManager (F1) they apply in game without a restart.

Install on every player who wants the arts and on the host / dedicated server.

Compatibility

Tested with Valheim 1.0.16 (network version 40), BepInEx 5.4.23.5 (BepInExPack_Valheim 5.4.2351).

Who needs it

| Who | What |

|---|---|

| Players with the mod | use their arts with the key (default C) |

| Host / dedicated server | recommended: its balance settings apply to every client with the mod |

| Players without the mod | see every effect and receive heals; to use arts themselves, 09 Proxy > Enabled must be on for a modded player near them (off by default) |

Known conflicts

• Combat overhauls that rework damage (Character.RPC_Damage) or monster targeting may change how strong the arts are or override the taunt.
• Another mod bound to C — change 01 General > AbilityKey.
