Skadi​

• Flight overhaul. Your dragon form now flies wherever you aim, pitch included, instead of the old free-camera noclip that needed Space and Ctrl to change altitude. Hold W to power forward and climb; let go and you hold level for a couple of seconds before settling into a natural glide.
• Dragon forms now turn to face the direction they are actually flying, and touching down mid-flight no longer leaves you sliding forward forever.
• Timed forms finally expire on their own. Moder Form now honours its duration, and the cooldown that could never trigger before now works. Both the remaining seconds and the cooldown appear as a Moder trophy icon with a live countdown beside the minimap.
• Fixed Freezing to Cold (Bonemass tier), which never did anything at all — Skadi's own frost resistance made Valheim skip the cold check entirely. Mountains now correctly leave you with Cold instead of Freezing.
• The Cold Spell is now cast from chest height with a proper spellcasting gesture, instead of a kick aimed at the ground.
• Drake Form attacks unlock the moment you reach the Bonemass tier, rather than only after transforming again.
• resetrace now clears Skadi's aura and its frost bonuses when switching away from the race.

Multiplayer​

• Fixed a severe bug where other players saw a transformed Skadi's dragon model respawn every single frame, stacking thousands of copies and causing lag that only got worse and never cleared on its own. The transformed player saw nothing wrong on their own screen.

General​

• Race abilities no longer fire while the map, inventory, a chest, the chat or a menu is open, so clicking an item inside a container no longer swings your transformed attack.

Documentation​

• The Skadi progression list now states the keybind for each form, along with the flight controls.

See the full Skadi page for the current kit.

Aswid​

• Added an execution mechanic to Blood Magic. Non-boss enemies that fall below 20% health inside the Vampiric Aura are instantly killed and automatically devoured.
• The devour execution now respects the Aswid's custom stomach limitations, including silently refreshing duplicate blinking buffs when all slots are occupied.
• Dominate moved from the generic interact key (E) to a dedicated keybind (K), so you stop accidentally enslaving things while trying to interact with the world.

Skeleton​

• Removed the constant "you could eat another bite" message. It now only appears occasionally, as a reminder of what the food of the living was like.

Aswid​

• Refined the diet. Restored Ashlands creatures — except undead ones like Charred and Morgen — and enabled a 4th stomach slot exclusively for Aswid prey.
• Added a keybind (I) to toggle automatic devour on and off.
• Fixed a bug where devouring a mob would fail if the player was still in an attack or movement animation.
• Added passive lifesteal scaling: you now heal for 2% of physical damage dealt per boss defeated (up to 14% at endgame), doubled at night.
