Valheim Patch Notes

Update 0.148.6

Below you can find the changes coming to Valheim in update 0.148.6, as well as what the team had to say:

"Waahaa! This was a long one. Sorry for the delay, but we were waiting for a specific patch to the steam socket API, and it just went live today! (the fix in question is not listed in the steam changelog). I recommend you to make sure steam has updated to the "Mar 22 2021" version (Steam->Menu->Help->About Steam). Steam will of course automatically update itself to this version. Lots of big and small changes in this patch, some gameplay tweaks and some bug fixes."

• Campfire,Bonfire & hearth take damage when dealing damage
• Reinforced chest inventory space increased to 6x4
• All boss drops can now float on water
• Sunken crypt entrance tweaked (to stop tombstones from getting stuck)
• Fixed rotation of Wood tower shield on item stands
• Deathsquito & Drake trophy drop rate increased
• 1 & 2 Star creature HP fix
