What's included
Framework
| Mod | Version | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BepInExPack Valheim by denikson | 5.4.2350 | The BepInEx modding framework, preconfigured for Valheim. Required by everything else. |
| Jotunn by ValheimModding | 2.30.0 | "The Valheim Library" — a modding API several mods below are built on. Updated for Valheim 1.0.7. |
Skills
| Mod | Version | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ImpactfulSkills by MidnightMods | 0.16.0 | Overhauls and adds skills so progression feels meaningful. Reworks Woodcutting, Pickaxes (AOE mining 50+), Gathering/Farming (AOE harvest 50+), weapon stamina cost, Sneaking, Run, Jump, Cooking, Fishing, Blood Magic and Crafting quality; adds Voyager (sailing), Hauling (carry weight) and Animal Whisper (taming). Replaces the individual Smoothbrain skill mods. |
| Vitality by Smoothbrain | 1.1.3 | Adds a skill that raises base health (default x2 at level 100 = +25 base HP). Bonus HP regen at level 30, extra HP from food at level 50. |
| Dual Wield by Smoothbrain | 1.0.10 | Dual wield axes, clubs, knives or swords (both hands the same type). Separate skill per weapon type; axes get a special attack. Not spears. |
| SkillFloors by Armikur | 1.2.2 | Each skill keeps a minimum "floor" that rises at 15% of the normal gain rate; on death, skills can't drop below their floor. Replaces FortifySkillsRedux. |
Gameplay & QoL
| Mod | Version | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Backpacks by Smoothbrain | 1.3.8 | Adds an equippable backpack in its own slot, so you keep your cape/utility item. Upgradeable capacity, optional auto-fill, custom packs via YAML. |
| BackpacksValheim1Compat by ADARC | 1.0.4 | Narrow runtime patch that makes Backpacks 1.3.8 work on Valheim 1.0.7 (fixes obsolete calls, supplies new parameter defaults, adds safe multiplayer auto-pickup guards). Required alongside Backpacks until it updates. |
| PortalMap by korCaptain | 0.1.78 | Map-click portal travel: click any accessible portal on the map or pick it from a scrollable list. Public/Private/Guild access modes and colour-coded minimap pins. Replaces TargetPortal. |
| CraftFromChests by Toxo | 0.2.0 | Craft, build and refuel from nearby chests without moving items into your inventory first; corrects the station UI to show the real available amounts. Replaces CraftFromContainers. |
| CraftMeOnce by turbero | 1.0.5 | Marks recipes you haven't crafted yet with an exclamation mark at the workstation, and adds a repair-all button. Client-side; good for 100% completion runs. |
| DetailedLevels by turbero | 2.1.2 | Pin a skill to watch its progress live as an on-screen buff with fractional levels and adjustable skill-up messages; adds player stats to the skills panel. |
| SpearFix by coemt | 0.0.4 | Small tweak to vanilla spears: a bit more attack range, slightly lower attack height, longer spear model. Configurable attack speed. |
| AzuClock by Azumatt | 1.0.5 | Adds a configurable on-screen clock. |

|---|---|
| ImpactfulSkills | Hauling max carry-weight bonus at level 100 raised to 150 (default 50). |
| ImpactfulSkills | Swimming eased at low level: speed and stamina bonuses now scale from level 0 (SwimSpeedRequiredLevel 25 → 0, SwimStaminaReductionLevel 50 → 0), SwimSkillGainRate 1 → 1.5. Level-100 ceilings unchanged. |
| AzuClock | Repositioned to the top-right (91%,-1.5%), 24-hour HH:mm format |
