Weapons That Use Fists

Leveling & Death Penalty

Every Valheim skill ranges from level 0 to 100, and its bonus grows as the level climbs — the +131% damage and knockback, -33% stamina usage above is the full value you reach at level 100. Fists earns experience at 1.5 per attack when hitting a creature, so it climbs fastest when you use it deliberately.

Dying is the catch: each death drains roughly 5% of your level in every skill, Fists included, so a hard-won level erodes quickly on a dangerous run. To claw it back without the grind, run raiseskill Fists 10 — that adds ten levels at once, and you can pass any amount (or a negative number to lower it). Prefer a clean slate? resetskill Fists wipes the skill back to 0.

About

When a player attacks without a weapon, tool equipped, or use a dedicated Fist weapon such as the Flesh Rippers they do a Fist strike. The primary attack is a punch, and the secondary attack is a kick that does additional knockback. The punch has a 2-hit combo where the second punch (left hand) does double damage. Fists can be useful against the weakest of enemies; especially when you want to avoid the cost of weapon durability. It also costs less stamina than most weapons.
