VikingSkills
VikingSkills transforms Valheim's skills interface into a full-screen, panoramic Nordic Rune Sanctuary HUD featuring individual skill progression pillars, sub-level XP tracking, and milestone-socketed Keystone Skill Trees powered by VikingLib.
⚠️ Work in Progress (Pre-Release v0.1.0): This mod is in active development and has not been tested extensively. Features, balance, and mechanics may change, and unintended bugs or edge cases may occur. Backup your character and world saves before testing.
⚡ Powered by VikingLib: This mod requires VikingLib. VikingLib replaces Valheim's native combat calculation and stat engines. Not all mods may be compatible / work as expected with this.
How It Works
Opening your skills menu displays an expansive horizontal sanctuary tracking all discovered proficiencies:
- Dedicated Rune Pillars: Every skill features a vertical glowing pillar displaying progression from Level 0 to 100, live sub-level percentages, and milestone notches at levels 25, 50, 75, and 100.
- Interactive Keystone Trees: Clicking any skill pillar opens its dedicated Rune Tree Drawer. At each milestone (levels 25, 50, 75, 100), choose and socket 1 of 2 thematic passive Keystones (Novice, Adept, Master, and Legendary rites).
- Dynamic Stat Integration: Socketed Keystones inject declarative stat bonuses into VikingLib, modifying weapon damage, attack speed, sprint efficiency, jump costs, stealth, and resource extraction yields.
- Seamless Character Persistence: Socketed keystones and active pillars save cleanly into native character metadata (
Player.m_customData), surviving multiplayer disconnects and server hops without custom network ZDOs.
