Valheim Plains | Valheim Wiki
Everything the world generator does in the Plains: which creatures spawn and under what conditions, which structures generate, and what you can carry out of it.
The Plains in numbers
10 creatures can spawn here and 23 kinds of structure generate here. Its boss is Yagluth at 10000 health, summoned at an altar somewhere in this biome.
7 of them only appear at night: Charred Marksman, Charred Warrior, Skeleton, Draugr, Fuling. 3 actively hunt you rather than waiting to be found: Charred Marksman, Charred Warrior, Seeker.
Reading the Plains numbers
- 10 spawn rules and 23 structure types apply here. Spawn rules keep rolling while you play; structures are placed once, when the world is made.
- 5 of the spawn rules here are gated behind a boss flag, so this biome is not fully populated on a fresh world.
- Spawn chance, tries per world and what they do and do not promise are explained once on the all-biomes page.
