Clans

Clans

Clans for Valheim, inspired by the guilds of Guild Wars. Levels, member ranks, weekly activities, shared storage and party support.

Around that, Clans adds what several large groups need to share one server, whether they play together or against each other: parties and raids, shared skill experience, clan wars, chat channels, clan-only map sharing and tombstones that only your clan can open.

Installation

Install with a mod manager, or put Clans.dll in BepInEx/plugins alongside Jotunn, YamlDotNet and Item Favorite Framework. Clans must be installed on the server and on every client.

The Clans window

Open it with the Clan button in the row of round buttons at the top right of the inventory. The vanilla PvP toggle moves into the window's header. If another mod replaces the inventory screen (such as Auga), set a hotkey for the window in the client settings instead.

• Without a clan, the window lists the server's clans so you can apply to one, or found your own for a fee.
• In a clan, it has the Overview, Level, Members, War, Activities, Storage and Party tabs.

Parties and raids

• Parties of up to five. Party members share part of the skill experience they gain, show on each other's

map and cannot hurt each other, even with PvP on.

• Raids join up to four parties under one raid leader, who can move members between squads.
• Invite from the Party tab. Pick from the players nearby, your clanmates or everyone online, or search by

name.

• Invitations pop up as a notice on the HUD and wait at the top of the inventory screen until you accept

or decline them.

• Invites in chat. Post your party or clan invite to chat (/pinvite, /cinvite) and anyone who sees it

can join from there.

• Party frame. Your squad and the rest of your raid, with their health, on the left of the HUD.

| Invitation on the HUD | Invitations in the inventory | Party frame | |---|---|---| | | | |

Features

Ranks and members

A clan starts with five ranks. The leader can rename, reorder, add and remove ranks, and choose what each one may do: invite, kick, promote, manage wars, use storage, take from the treasury and more. Membership is per account, so all of a player's characters belong to the same clan.

Emblems

Pick a background shape in a colour, then a symbol on top: a rune in a second colour, or a creature trophy. The emblem shows above your clanmates' heads and on your clan's banners.

Treasury and storage

Members donate coins to the treasury, which pays for storage tabs, clan levels and guild feasts. Shared storage tabs are bought from the treasury, and a later upgrade gives every member a personal tab too. Storage opens from anywhere and goes wherever its clan goes, so the server decides which items may be stored.

Wars

One clan declares war, optionally with a kill target, and the other accepts. While at war, the two clans' members can fight each other whatever their PvP setting. A war ends in peace, when its time runs out, or when one side reaches the kill target.

| Declaring war | At war | |---|---| | | |

Tombstone lock

Only a tombstone's owner and their clanmates can open it, so nobody can loot a player killed in PvP. Owners can also make theirs private.

Weekly activities

Each clan can run each activity once a week, on Easy, Normal or Hard, for clan experience, treasury coins and rewards for everyone who took part.

• Trophy Hunt: hunt the creatures your clan is given, bosses included. Every member's kills count.
• Race: carry chests from a start totem to a destination far away. Carts and ships may carry them, portals

may not.

• World Boss Battles: hold a totem against waves from the portals around it, then defeat a much stronger

boss.

Party and raid members roll Need, Greed or Pass for an activity's magic item rewards (with Item Favorite Framework and Epic Loot). The activity tracker under the minimap shows how your clan's activities are going.

Chat channels

Global (/g), Clan (/c), Party (/p) and Raid (/r) channels, each with its own tab, and item links (Shift + right-click an item). The clan's status message greets members in chat when they log in.
