AutoShield

Equip a one-handed weapon and your last shield comes with it — no more re-clicking your shield every time you switch weapons.

What it does

• Equip a shield once, like normal.
• Switch to any one-handed weapon (with an empty off-hand) and the shield you had equipped is automatically re-equipped alongside it.
• Two-handed weapons, bows, and torches are left untouched — the game already handles those slots on its own.
• Only affects your own character; safe for multiplayer.

Toggle

Found in BepInEx/config/snep.valheim.autoshield.cfg after first launch:

Compatibility

Client-side only — no server-side requirement, and no known conflicts with other equipment mods.
