Valheim Hearth And Home Update Notes
Food Rebalancing
When Valheim originally came out, most players had something against the food system of the game. Things could happen repeatedly in Valheim, yet it was a nicely departure from tedious mechanics in other survival games. You can merely keep stuffing the same three sorts of meals repeatedly to keep your health and endurance up easy.
However, the food system functions quite differently after Valheim Heart and Home Update. There are now three types of food items that you will have to choose from:
- Health food (increase health): marked by a red fork icon in your inventory.
- Stamina food (increase stamina): marked by a yellow fork icon in your inventory.
- Hybrid food (increase both health and stamina): marked by a white fork icon in your inventory.
You and your companions in Viking would have to take some greater care of what you are eating and eating after the update. Yet in the game, no one is still hungry. Your health will never go below 25 starvation points. However, with less HP, a bunch of Greylings can immediately send you to spawn.
Iron Gate also modifies the food user’s interface. There are now timers on the three meal slots instead of a quite complex, multi-colored bar. These will tell you when it is time for you to eat more.
Of course, the updating of food systems also defines several Valheim playing techniques. You can select to optimise endurance to constantly spam or hack foes. Otherwise go to your team for more health if you wish to take the Troll first hand and in the tank. And it’s vital to bring a shield.

New Cooking Stations, Edibles, And Recipes
Iron Gate also presents 12 new items appropriate for a Viking dinner together with the food system balances. The new recipes may now cultivate oignons, oaks, and birch trees. Players can also build an Iron Cooking Station and a Stone Oven. New food products including bread and pastries are unlocked. Also there are expansions to the cooking station. Build a spice rack to open up fresh recettes, butcher table, pots and panels.
Valheim Hearth And Home Update Notes
Here are a few of the new food items in Valheim Heart and Home Update:
- Boar Jerky: 20 HP, 20 Stamina.
- Muckshake: 10 HP, 50 Stamina.
- Deer Stew: 40 HP, 8 Stamina.
- Minced Meat Sauce: 45 HP, 9 Stamina.
- Wolf Jerky: 30 HP, 30 Stamina.
- Wolf Skewer: 65 HP, 13 Stamina.
- Onion Soup: 12 HP, 60 Stamina.
- Black Soup: 50 HP, 10 Stamina.c
Also there are several kinds of meat in Valheim Heart and Home Update. Rather than simply dropping a generic type of meat, boars, deer, and other animals will devour unparalleled meat. For example, from lox you will receive ‘lox meat,’ and from deer flesh you will receive from deer. Different recipes of course require different sorts of meat.
Say welcome to the bukeperries, last but not least. In the recent update to Valheim it is a sort of forged meal. This fruit empties your stomach immediately to release you from awful things that you don’t want to eat.
Combat Changes
Just like the food system, Valheim’s combat system receives some tweaks as well. For starters, let’s talk shields.
- Tower shields are now stronger with a higher knockback power compared to other shields in Valheim. It’s a great defense tool against larger groups of enemies or the icy breath attacks from Moder. In trade, the tower shields are heavy and hard to maneuver.
- Buckler shields are much smaller, hence, fit for those who love swinging their axes or Frostner. They won’t have the same blocking power, but you can use them to parry incoming attacks.
- Round shields marry the best of both worlds. It provides medium blocking power while being light enough for you to easily carry around.
Furthermore, blocking power now increases the health of players. It is good for petrol tankers to eat superior health food to hit the team. Why? You can get stunned in fighting now. A stagger bar is added in the Valheim Heart and Home Update. When an adversary impacts your shield, it becomes weak.
The shift bar is noticeable now, especially as you struggle hordes of attackers. Once the bar has been depleted, you can only watch the enemies bounce you. Try to avoid as many attacks as possible and block just what you can’t avoid.
Weapon Balances
The update to Heart and Home includes several changes to the armoury of gambling weapons. You will now find bows that last longer, nerves the power of the rangers and promotes closer struggles. The two-handed axis gains a bonus, on the other hand. It swings faster, has greater impact, and may cling more effectively to enemies.
Additionally, Iron Gate also introduces new shields and weapons as well in Valheim Heart and Home Update:
- Iron Buckler: A relatively small shield for the agile warrior.
- Bone Tower Shield: A large, intimidating shield made from bones.
- Crystal Battleaxe: A new drop from Golem.
- Silver Knife: A weapon for mobile warriors who fancy some stealthy actions.
- Butcher’s Knife: To slay your tamed animals.
New Building PiecesÂ
This is an enhancement in quality of life. The new version creates a variety of new building items that will nourish your ideas. You also have the option of destroying stuff now. You can finally get rid of the tattered tunic you wear.
- Here’s the list of all the new building pieces you can try in the game:
- Darkwood building pieces: Players can now craft and use building pieces with a jet black exterior. There are more shapes to match your creativity and decorative options.
- The Raven and Wolf home decorations: Two worthy decorative pieces as the finishing touches on your longhouse.
- Crystal Wall: A clear, transparent wall, more like a window. You need to drop some Stone Golems to collect the materials first.
- Cartography Table: Share map data with other players on your server.
- Viking Hot Tub: Nothing beats a nice warm bath after a long hard day of mining, crafting, and fighting.
- Cages: Perfect for building a beautiful dungeon.
- Stone Throne: Fit for a king.
- Obliterator: A handy item that destroys everything you throw in it within seconds.
Hoarding Treasure
In the Update to Hearth & Home, Valheim included a new function. It enables you to display other players your wealth. You can heap your gold into piles, make coin stacks and even fill your hard-earned profits with the soon to be added treasure chest.
And you must protect your riches, of course. An iron grill will also be placed to keep your pillage locked and locked.
Plains Biome Update: Tar And Lox Mounts
This is not the best portion of your Heart and Home update, but it may not be so vital for your Valheim survival. Now it’s possible to mount loxes. Once you have tamed a lox, you may fit it with a Lox Saddle (only animals on the plains as previously). A fresh way of discovering the world. And from now on, you may name your domesticated animals as well.
But you don’t want to see the Plains Biome for that single reason. You can also produce a new Tar material for creating Darkwood things besides finding a lox to tame. Remember to establish a gateway before you go into the plains of death. Deathsquitos and Fulings isn’t simple to overcome.
