Wooden Crossbow
A practice wooden crossbow/arbalest designed in the style of Valheim's vanilla wooden weapons.
The Wooden Crossbow serves as a low-damage training tool—ideal for practicing on Archery Targets to level up your Crossbow skill without destroying targets or wasting expensive high-tier bolts.
To preserve authentic game progression, the Wooden Crossbow requires both acquiring a vanilla crossbow (such as the Arbalest) and craft materials, including Mistlands-tier Yggdrasil Wood, to unlock the recipe at the Workbench.
Features
- Vanilla-Friendliness: Designed to look and feel like a native addition to Valheim's wooden weapon tier.
- Low-Damage Training Tool: Very low damage (1), slower projectile velocity, slightly faster reload speed and zero recoil pushback on the player.
- Aesthetic: Uses wood material textures from vanilla wooden weapons.
- Custom Sound Design: Blends original mechanical snap with bowstring release for a softer firing sound.
- Progression Integration: Integrated recipe unlock progression tied to discovering original crossbow weapons and necessary materials (Wood, Fine Wood, Yggdrasil Wood, Root).
- Fully Configurable: Tweak weapon damage, reload speed, knockback, recoil, and projectile speed via BepInEx config.
- Server Sync Ready: Built for multiplayer compatibility.
