Valheim, the successful indie game by Iron Gate AB, received a small update yesterday. The patch is heavily focused on bug fixes, but some additional content is also available. Yule seasonal items such as Yule tree, Mistletoe, and Yule wreath have been enabled.
The patch lowers the poison radius of Pufferfish and fixes the sound effect of the Wisplight torch. Fishing bait recipes now give players more bait, and players are now unable to equip Ballista bolts. The aiming angle of Ballista is slightly increased and it won’t go ballistic at low health anymore.
Patch 0.212.7 is only live on the public test branch and the developer wants players to help test this version before it is released to the live version. The rest of the fixes are mentioned below.
- Fixed a missing Mistlands dream text
- Fish are no longer as slippery and you can now pick them up again by pressing the "use" button
- Applied a fix to fish so they should no longer float in the air
- Dungeon doors are excluded from Guardstones and should no longer be able to be “locked”
- Added more interesting items to chests found inside Mistlands dungeons
- Functioning Wisplights are now only still intact at dungeons and not at Dvergr ruins (for easier findability)
- Tweaked the resource cost of building items (most Black marble pieces, Copper wall, Dvergr stairs and Ballista)
- Fixed wrong SFX & VFX on Black marble bench and table
- Armor stands now has arm support for Mistlands armor sets
- Correct message is now displayed if players try to load the ballista when they don’t have any ammo in their inventory
- Newly added events in Mistlands now spawn mobs correctly
- Mobs that only spawn during the night now successfully despawn again at day
- Tick detach system tweaked
- Simplified Seeker egg destruction VFX to reduce FPS drops
- Fixed wrong SFX & VFX on chickens and hens
- Hugin/Munin should no longer be able to float in the air when they spawn
- Localization updated
- Crow talk added to Compendium
- Lower radiation rate on Refined Eitr
- Tweaked positions for attach on some prefabs
- Minor performance tweaks
