Black Metal FAQ
How do you get Black Metal in Valheim?
Black Metal is not crafted. It comes from Goblin Trashpile (Plains).
What are the stats of Black Metal in Valheim?
They are listed above, at every quality level Black Metal 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.
What is Black Metal used for in Valheim?
The things that consume it number 12, across Crafted into. That list is the honest answer to whether a stack is worth keeping: something with a single use is worth exactly one project, while something that feeds recipes, a station and a build piece at once is worth a dedicated chest.
How much does Black Metal weigh in Valheim?
0.5 each, and it stacks to 20 — so a full stack is 10 of your carry limit. It is portal-safe, which means the weight only matters between here and the nearest portal rather than for the whole journey home.
