MultiplayerSettings
Configure Valheim's multiplayer difficulty scaling: extra damage taken and effective enemy health per nearby player, the counting range and player cap.MultiplayerSettings
Valheim makes the game harder the more players are nearby: creatures deal +4% damage and enemies get +30% effective health per extra player within 100 m. This mod lets you change those numbers, including turning them off entirely.

Defaults match vanilla, so nothing changes until you edit them. Edit the config in BepInEx/config/Iteravio.MultiplayerSettings.cfg, or in-game with a config manager (F1).
The host's settings sync to everyone and are locked while connected. Type mpsettings in the console (F5) to see what's in effect.
Compatibility
- Everyone needs the mod (host and all players), or they can't join.
- Works with in-game hosting and dedicated servers.
