📋 About This Mod
We've all been in a situation where we can't hit enemies that are slightly above or below us. This happens because enemies face the direction that the terrain angles them towards, while players are stuck horizontally for the most part even if on an incline.
This mod fixes this, allowing you to look up or down and hit the things above or below you. But be careful, enemies can do this too (I think)
Why wasn't this in the game to begin with?
This is my second mod so please report any issues if you have them and I'll try my best to fix it.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community approval (2,657 endorsements) and nearly 100k downloads—this is a must-have for many.
- Solves a real gameplay annoyance that vanilla Valheim has, making combat on uneven terrain feel fair.
- Lightweight and focused—does one thing and does it well.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in April 2021—may not be compatible with the latest Valheim patches, so check before installing.
- Only affects vertical attack angles; doesn't address other melee quirks like hitbox detection.
For Valheim players who are tired of swinging at wolves on slopes and missing. If you do a lot of exploring and fighting in mountainous or hilly biomes, this mod is a quality-of-life upgrade. Skip if you prefer vanilla combat difficulty or rarely fight on uneven terrain.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2021, verify it works with your current Valheim version—check the mod's comments for reports.
- If you use a mod manager like Nexus Mods Vortex, installation is a breeze; otherwise, drop the DLL into your BepInEx plugins folder.
- Test the mod in a low-stakes area first to get used to the new vertical aiming before heading into a wolf den.
