Savheim V Client

This Client modpack is intended for use in connecting to a Savheim dedicated server. It does not have the features below unless you connect to a Savheim server. It does include a link on the game's title screen to play on our 24/7 developer's server - join us!

If you're looking for singleplayer or to stand up your own Savheim server, I'll be releasing the Full modpack for that soon and linking to it from here.

🏹 Welcome to Savheim 🪓

Adaptive Progression • Dynamic Combat • Performance Optimized

Savheim is a passionately curated Valheim overhaul, delivering a completely fresh, evolved adventure while preserving the core beauty of the game. Matured and polished over years of development and four seasons of dedicated server playthroughs, this comprehensive augmentation is finally opening to the public on Thunderstore.

✨ Core Pillars

• 🗺️ Unbound Exploration: Brave biomes in any order after Black Forest. Difficulty and crafting scale dynamically based on boss kills with seamless multiplayer scaling.
• 💥 Elemental Reactions: Mixing elemental statuses triggers explosive chain reactions affecting players and enemies, altering how you fight and gear up.
• 🏡 Elevated Building: Build without limits using unlocked base-game pieces, free rotation, precision placement, and cozy clutter—all backed by deep performance optimizations and custom wards.
• ⚔️ Combat Redesign: Enhanced, responsive combat with new mechanics for all armaments and 7 entirely new weapon classes. Vastly expanded build variety, including tanking with taunts.
• 🔮 Early Magic: Magic starts in the Black Forest. Progress as a dedicated spellcaster, healer, or a necromancer commanding a custom summoning system.
• 🏆 Quest Artifacts: Bosses guard unique armaments. Embark on custom quests to unlock their gameplay-defining power.
• 🌲 Expanded Sandbox: Ocean and more are integrated into your journey. Enjoy new biome armor tiers and elevated food mechanics.
• 🚀 Performance: Built for speed. Savheim runs smoother and faster than unmodded Valheim via custom scripts and optimizations, including multiplayer.
• 📖 In-Game Discovery: No wikis required. All new mechanics and features are uncovered and explained organically as you play.

Forget what you know. Start a fresh adventure with new surprises at every turn. Join Savheim.

Important Information

• Savheim is intended for fresh characters only. Please create a new character before joining our adventure.
• If you're having trouble joining the server or suspect you're seeing unintended behavior while playing Savheim, the first and best action to try is always to close the game, open r2modman, Delete the profile containing the Savheim modpack, then create a new profile and download a clean Savheim modpack. This clears out any stale configurations and ensures you're on the latest version of the modpack. It will not remove any of your characters or saved data. This is always safe to try and usually fixes most problems.
• Savheim has been passionately developed over years by humans. AI was used only for minor wordsmithing and a bit of help generating some icons.
