Combo Spear — by AndyTheDemon
Makes your spear feel like a real weapon in your arsenal — so you stop stabbing your own feet while you try to hit someone.
Three attacks, no clutter:
- Normal combo — three chained thrusts: jab, jab, lunge.
- Jump-back throw — press the special during the third hit: you leap back and throw the spear (0.5× damage).
- Block combo — hold block and attack: three thrusts from behind the shield, hit 1 → 2 → 3. You still block while attacking, at 50% / 70% / 100% damage.
Everything else about the spear is untouched — the plain middle-mouse throw keeps full damage.
Install
- Install BepInEx 5 (64-bit) for Valheim.
- Copy the
BepInExfolder from this package into your Valheim folder. - Play. That's it — one file:
BepInEx\plugins\ComboSpear\ComboSpear.dll
The animations are inside that DLL. Nothing else to copy.
Settings
Only three, in BepInEx\config\andythedemon.combospear.cfg (or press F1 in game):
| setting | default | what |
|---|---|---|
NormalHitsDamageMultiplier |
1 | damage of the three normal combo hits |
BlockHitsDamageMultiplier |
1 | damage of the three block-combo hits |
SpearThrowDamageMultiplier |
0.5 | damage of the jump-back finishing throw |
Everything else — animations, speeds, grip, timing — is tuned and fixed. That is deliberate: those knobs only ever produced broken animations and mistimed hits.
Multiplayer
Client-side mod. Every player who wants to see the animations needs it installed — each client picks the custom clip itself when the attack arrives, so a player without the mod sees the plain spear attack instead (no animation plays for that thrust on their screen).
Dedicated servers: nothing server-side is required. The combo, the damage and the animation all happen on the attacker's client, and the plugin has no server-side work to do — install it on the server only if you want every machine running the same mod list. It is safe to run there: all of its player-specific code checks for a local player and does nothing when there isn't one.
Server admins: tell your players to install it client-side, or they will see spear users attacking with no animation. It adds no items and touches no save data, so it is safe on existing worlds.
Requirements
Valheim + BepInEx 5.4.23 or newer (64-bit). No other mods needed. Wires Combat Flow is detected and cooperated with automatically.
Note
Fully written by AI (DeepSeek Harness) — the plugin, the 18 animation clips, the arm and shield solver, and this document. The human owner (AndyTheDemon) designed it and tested every build in game.
