Thunderblood Crossbow FAQ

How do you get Thunderblood Crossbow in Valheim?

Thunderblood Crossbow is crafted at Black Forge from Nord Crossbow x1, Bloodgold x20, Thunderblood Essence x1, Bloodgold x1.

What are the stats of Thunderblood Crossbow in Valheim?

They are listed above, at every quality level Thunderblood Crossbow 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 damage does Thunderblood Crossbow block?

Does Thunderblood Crossbow slow you down?

Thunderblood Crossbow 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 Thunderblood Crossbow have?

Thunderblood Crossbow has 300–450 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.
