Black Metal Sword FAQ
How do you get Black Metal Sword in Valheim?
Black Metal Sword is crafted at Forge from Finewood x2, Black Metal x20, Linen Thread x5, Black Metal x1.
What are the stats of Black Metal Sword in Valheim?
They are listed above, at every quality level Black Metal Sword reaches. Some of those figures come from Valheim's own item tooltip; the rest — reach, swing arc, combo length, what the secondary attack multiplies — are read from the game files, because the tooltip never shows them.
How much stamina does Black Metal Sword use per swing?
A swing of Black Metal Sword costs 14 stamina, with a reach of 2.4 m. Stamina is what actually decides a fight in Valheim rather than raw damage: your food sets the pool, and a weapon that costs less per swing keeps you attacking where a heavier one leaves you standing still waiting to recover.
How much damage does Black Metal Sword block?
Black Metal Sword blocks 39, and a parry taken on the right frame multiplies that by 2. Both numbers are then scaled by your Blocking skill, so what is listed here is the floor rather than the ceiling.
Does Black Metal Sword slow you down?
Black Metal Sword changes your movement speed by -5%. Valheim adds that figure up across everything equipped — both hands, all four armour slots, the utility slot and the trinket — so a heavy set with a shield reaches a number you can feel, and it applies to the stamina that running and jumping drain as well as to speed.
How much durability does Black Metal Sword have?
Black Metal Sword has 200–350 durability, and can be repaired for free at a crafting station that covers it — repairing costs nothing but the trip, so there is never a reason to carry a worn one home.
