Polearms Skill ID

Polearms is one of Valheim's character skills, tracked under the internal ID Polearms. Determines damage and stamina cost with Polearms.

Experience is gained at 1.5 per attack when hitting a creature.

At max level (100) it grants +131% damage and knockback, -33% stamina usage.

Adjust your level from the console with raiseskill Polearms 10 to add 10 points, or resetskill Polearms to wipe it back to 0.

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. Polearms 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, Polearms included, so a hard-won level erodes quickly on a dangerous run. To claw it back without the grind, run raiseskill Polearms 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 Polearms wipes the skill back to 0.
