Valheim, the exploration and survival game by Iron Gate Studios that took the industry by storm, has received one more update. Patch 0.213.4 brought new content along with a lot of balancing changes and tweaks. You can also expect a good amount of bug squashing from this patch.
A hexagonal gate build piece has been added alongside a new item called a fishing hat, with the latter requiring a secret recipe. The rest of the highlights are mentioned below.
Balance and Tweaks
- Players can now “use” a trophy on ballistas to limit what it will shoot at
- Seeker circling tweaks (They should now feel a bit more aggressive again)
- Gjall spit attack tweaks (They now shoot 2 projectiles again, but the burst interval is increased. Should now be more visible and somewhat easier to avoid instead. More fire damage, less blunt damage)
- Added post-Queen nightspawns of Seekers, Broods and Ticks in Meadows, Black Forest, Mountain and Plains biomes
- Mistlands boss now tries to flee if unable to reach the player
- Mobs inside Mistlands Dungeons can now respawn
- Royal jelly piles inside Mistlands Dungeons are now respawning (Added hanging Royal Jelly piles as an indicator in big dungeon rooms)
- Wolves can now eat Chicken meat (Yum!)
- Mist torches are no longer a primary target for enemies
- Tweaked portal size to Mistlands boss room (The entrance “box” was a bit too big. Players should no longer be able to mine the top of the entrance and be able to press “E” to enter through the wall/stones)
- Tweaked portal size on Mistlands dungeon exits (The exit “box” was a bit too big. Players should no longer be able to exit the dungeon while being on the floor right above the entrance)
- Eitr regen is no longer affected by swimming or when encumbered
- Ymir Flesh is now purchasable from Haldor after Elder is dead, instead of after Bonemass
- Health and resistance tweaks on some Dvergr pieces
- Ballista ammo capacity increased from 20 to 40
