dmtWoodcutting
A Valheim mod that turns the vanilla Woodcutting skill into a full lumberjack progression: smooth perks on every skill point, plus milestones — HP on aim, 1 HP stumps, stamina per felled tree, one-hit fell chance, uninterrupted axe combos, axe conservation and boosted XP.
It uses the vanilla Woodcutting skill — no custom skill, vanilla XP rates and vanilla skill UI.

Features
Progressive perks (every skill point)
- Item yield: ×1.00 at level 0 up to ×2.00 (configurable) at level 100, scaled linearly by your current level
- Falling-tree damage: 100% at level 0 down to 30% (configurable) at level 100
- Forest speed: up to +10% (configurable) run/jog speed in forests at level 100
- Log HP: felled logs and half-logs get weaker continuously with level, following
2^(−3 × level/100)— halved around skill 33, quartered around 67 and down to 1/8 at 100. Standing trees always keep vanilla HP
Milestones
| Level | Perk |
|---|---|
| 10 | HP on aim — aim at a tree, stump or log to see its current / maximum HP above the crosshair |
| 20 | Stumps 1 HP — one hit from anything destroys a stump (9 vanilla prefabs, incl. Ashlands) |
| 30 | Felling Stamina — each felled standing tree grants stamina, growing from 0 at level 30 to +15 (configurable) at level 100 |
| 40 | Axe combo — axe attack chains no longer reset while chopping trees — swings 1→2→3 flow continuously |
| 50 | Felling Blow — chance to drop a standing tree with a single hit, growing from 0% at level 50 to 30% (configurable) at level 100 |
| 60 | Axe Conservation — 30% (configurable) of tree/log hits cost no durability, growing to 50% (configurable) at level 100 |

Uses the vanilla skill
Woodcutting XP is earned exactly like vanilla (chop trees with an axe), vanilla shows the skill in its normal UI, and vanilla's skill-based chop damage bonus applies. Existing Woodcutting levels are kept.

Classic behavior presets
- StumpsAreOneHp behavior:
Stump Skill Level = 0— stumps 1 HP from level 0 - blacks7ar AxeComboWhenChoppingTree behavior:
Axe Combo Skill Level = 0 - Always 1 HP logs:
Log HP = 1 - Untouched logs:
Enable Log HP = Off
Compatibility
Incompatible (same features — the mod manager will warn you)
- StumpsAreOneHp (DMT and coemt versions) — stump/log HP is built in
- AxeComboWhenChoppingTree by blacks7ar — axe combo is built in
- ValheimPlus
Multiplayer
Install on the server and clients. Stump/log HP follows the host's (or dedicated server's) Woodcutting level for world objects; felling blow is rolled on the owner of the tree with the attacker's skill. The axe combo, HP display, stamina, conservation and XP boost are evaluated per player from your own skill. Configuration is locked and synced from the server.
Migrating from other mods
- StumpsAreOneHp: uninstall it and use this mod instead — stump/log HP is now controlled from section "2 - Stumps and Logs" of
dmtWoodcutting.cfg(its oldDMT.StumpsAreOneHp.cfgis no longer read)
Installation
- Install BepInEx
- Download and extract
dmtWoodcutting.dllinto yourBepInEx/plugins/folder - Launch the game to generate the config file
BepInEx/config/dmtWoodcutting.cfg - All settings can be tuned in that config file. Server and all clients must run the same mod version for config sync to work.
