![]() ![]() Initial expectations around Mistlands involved the addition of a new biome which comes with "new enemies, new items, a new boss, new resources." On October 22, developer Iron Gate confirmed that work on Valheim's second major update is underway but didn't lock in what the new biome would be. The Mountain update also adds full controller support, the option to pause in single-player, alongside additional optimization settings.ĭeveloper Iron Gate Studio also revealed that the Frost Caves "are essentially" Valheim's Cult of the Wolf update, which was part of the original roadmap. They're quite similar to the Burial Chambers and Sunken Crypts, introducing three new enemies alongside new resources and materials required to craft a new armor and weapon set. Expanding the biome that gives it its name, it adds brand-new instanced dungeons called Frost Caves. Valheim's Mountain update is a smaller addition that bridges the gap between its two major content drops. The bow has had its draw speed adjusted, and cannot be drawn instantly, but requires a bit less stamina to be kept drawn. All weapons have been rebalanced, with the two-handed axe having a faster wind-up alongside increased stagger damage and cleaving capabilities. If you're unhappy with your food choice, eating a special berry lets you remove active buffs through the power of vomiting.Ĭoin piles, treasure chests, and iron grates are also on the way. If you're opting for a more balanced playstyle, round shields remain your go-to choice.ĭeer, boars, and wolves each drop distinct types of meat when killed, while more than 10 new recipes and plantable onions also count among the features of Valheim's Hearth & Home update.īread and pies need to be baked in the oven before you can eat them, and you'll also need to upgrade your cauldron with cooking extensions. At the opposite end is the buckler, which lets players parry strikes. ![]() Tower shields will have more knockback, making them the best choice for tankier builds looking to hold their ground against multiple enemies. The stat also affects the stagger bar which, once full, seems to render you vulnerable for a brief moment. Tankier Vikings will want to get more health, as it increases the ability to "deflect incoming hits and mitigate damage," since blocking power will be based on maximum health. Stamina and health will also affect poise in combat differently but also let you attack for longer. Valheim is also getting a new food system "that places more importance between boosting health and stamina, making food choices more interesting based on your playstyle." Food items will come in three separate categories, while the food bar is getting replaced with timers for each item. Darkwood roofs and window hatches will be introduced as new build pieces, while new cooking station extensions – such as the spice rack, butcher table, pots & pans, and more –, are also on the way. Hearth & Home, Valheim's first major update fleshes out player housing and base-building, as they're both important parts of its core gameplay loop. Planned minor updates will be put on hold and work on the major Mistlands update will start after Hearth & Home will release. The new Valheim roadmap will be "much smaller," according to the developer. To put it clearly we haven’t been able to focus all of our resources on Hearth & Home until May. Our priority has been to make the current experience as stable as possible and this has meant new content has taken a backseat. "We weren’t prepared for such a large influx of players, and this highlighted a thousand new problems and bugs that needed to be fixed urgently. We are sorry it’s taken us so long to update you," it wrote in a Steam post. ![]() Instead, we’re now planning to launch Hearth & Home in Q3 2021, and we’re temporarily taking down the roadmap whilst we make some changes. "As we’re sure lots of you suspected, we won’t be able to deliver four updates this year. ![]()
