Ward
The base-protection structure in valheim. What the Ward locks down and who it allows.
- Tier
- 2
- Made from
- 5 Fine Wood, 5 Greydwarf Eye, 1 Surtling Core
- Role
- Protect a 32m radius
The Ward protects a radius of your base from other players: it locks doors and chests and blocks new building unless they are on its permit list. You activate and add permitted players by interacting with it, and only the owner can deactivate it. It is the main griefing defense on shared servers, though other players can still destroy the Ward itself.
