Multiple Greydwarves can work together, allowing one worker to supply resources for another.

Worker Behavior

Greydwarves have their own personalities and will comment on things happening around them, including:

• Their current work
• Full chests
• Nearby Greylings
• Greydwarf Brutes
• Greydwarf Nests
• Their surroundings

They may also greet the player.

Workers are protected from attacks while working, but can be attacked while following the player.

Installation

Install the mod through your preferred Valheim mod manager.

Configure the mod using its generated configuration file after launching the game.

Compatibility

Pin It is supported but not required. When installed, foraging Greydwarves can mark resources they discover on the map.

Some performance mods that alter Valheim's zone loading, such as VPO, can prevent workers from continuing to operate while the player is out of range because it alters how zones work to increase performance.
