Valheim Level System by Lorska

Leveling

  • 1 Attribute point per level
  • 2 Skill points per level
  • XP for activities unique to a higher biome will grant more XP (i.e. chopping birch trees will give the same XP regardless of where you do it)
  • Activities include: Killing, Chopping, Mining, Fishing, Picking/Farming
  • Combat provides more XP but is divided by amount of players in the vicinity
  • Kills from indirect sources (fire, other mobs) will grant vastly reduced XP
  • Bosses and stronger enemies have an additional XP multiplier
  • You will lose a portion of your XP on death but only down to your current level
  • Resetting your level is free (except accumulated XP for the current level) until lvl 30 but you will lose one more level every additional 10 levels afterwards
  • The level cap is 10 x the amount of land biomes (currently 80)
  • If you are below the expected level you will catch up very quickly when reaching a new biome
  • You do not have to grind XP or sequence break in order to get XP fast, doing so will stall your progression later

Attributes

  • You gain an additional 5 points for every boss defeated (if you defeat a later boss you also get credit for all bosses before)
  • You can increase Health, Stamina or Eitr
  • Every character starts with 25 base Eitr (because it's also used for specific effects)
  • The maximum amount of points is 1.5 x level cap (currently 120)
  • You can gain additional points from Focus (see Stats)

Stats

  • Each stat has a maximum level (20, 10, 10, 5)
  • Bonuses scale with every point invested
  • Each stat belongs to a mastery of which one can be chosen to increase the stat caps (10, 5, 5, 2)
  • Masteries can be broadly categorized:
  1. Strength - physical damage
  2. Agility - mobility and stamina
  3. Intelligence - versatility and cooldowns
  4. Focus - general improvement and durations
  5. Constitution - survivability
  6. Magic - eitr-based enhancements
  7. Diligence - work and food improvements

Specializations

  • Unlocked from the start (press 'None' in the character window)
  • Grants varying bonuses to health, stamina and eitr
  • Passive effect
  • Stance that can be toggled, usually with a downside

Special Skills

  • Slot unlocked every 15 levels
  • Powerful conditional effects
  • Maximum level of 3 but can be mixed and matched with others instead

Trophies

  • Achievement system for specific actions
  • Grants small bonus effects depending on achievement rank

UI / Controls

  • Exp window shows level and current XP progress
  • Log window shows any important information like XP gains and activation of effects etc.
  • Built-in reminder to spend points
  • Character window (press ‘O’) shows all available and spent points, base stats and active bonuses and allows resets
  • Requires a cursor to use, easiest way is to just open your inventory menu
  • Specialization window contains detailed information about all specializations but becomes unavailable when one is chosen
  • Special Skill window contains detailed information about all special skills
  • Stance can be toggled by pressing 'P' once you have a specialization but there is a cooldown before you can change it again

Almost every number you see (or don't see) as well as list (like what gives XP) can be modified, please check the config for more information.

You can activate or deactivate the mod anytime without repercussions, everything is safely stored on your character, so if you need to because of updates you can.
