[

How to capture things
In order to capture a creature and make it your own, you have to first craft a Spirit Stone, and then throw it and hit a weakened creature with it. Spirit Stones don't magically return to your hand, either. If you fail, you'll hear a sound and see the Spirit Stone you threw bounce off the creature. If you succeed, you will see the runes of the Spirit Stone activate and capture the spirit of the creature.
Capturing a creature's spirit isn't guaranteed, though. The odds of capturing a creature are inversely proportional to how hurt the creature is. Modifying those odds is a calculation comparing the creature's level to the quality of the Spirit Stone you're using. The tooltip popups in-game will show you the success odds modifiers versus the applicable creature levels set by the server, as well as which spirit is captured and which player originally captured it.
Creature level groupings explained
To support other mods that increase creature levels, Valheimon has Creature Level Groupings. These define a ranges of creature levels that will be compared to which Spirit Stone quality values in order to determine capture success modifiers. In the configuration file, Creature Level Groupings are set by a single string containing numbers separated by commas. For example, the default value of "1,2,3" defines the following groupings:
Group 1 contains creature level 1
Group 2 contains creature level 2
Group 3 contains creature levels 3 and up
The default is acceptable for playing Valheim without any higher creature levels. If you want to increase the size of a group, you increase the value of the following group's level. For example, the string "1,4, 7" defines the follow groupings:
Group 1 contains creature levels 1 through 3
Group 2 contains creature levels 4 through 6
Group 3 contains creature levels 7 and up
You can have as many groupings defined as you want. The order of groupings sets the Spirit Stone quality that will be used to compare against creature levels, so having more groupings than you do Spirit Stone quality levels is pointless, and having fewer groupings defined than Spirit Stone quality levels will lead to players being able to capt
