📋 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.

Note: you need to look in the direction you want to hit, it doesn't increase the hitbox size. You may have to look slightly above where you want to hit because your camera is at above head level while your swing starts at your torso

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.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since the mod is from 2021, verify it works with your current Valheim version—check the mod's comments for reports.

  • Test the mod in a low-stakes area first to get used to the new vertical aiming before heading into a wolf den.
