Valhella Combat Basics
Learn the fundamental combat mechanics in Valhella, including stamina management, class-specific weapons, and ability usage to fight draugr effectively.
- Know the controls
- Pick one of the six classes
Watch Your Stamina
Light and heavy attacks both cost stamina, with heavy attacks consuming more but dealing greater damage. Stamina regenerates when you stop attacking.
Fight With Your Class Weapon
Each class specializes in a specific weapon type: Berserkers use axes, Shieldmaidens and Valkyries use spears, Seers use staves, Archers use bows, and Skalds use swords.
Use Your Class Ability at the Right Moment
Each class has a unique ability with a cooldown and stamina cost. Berserker Blood Rage increases damage for a short time without stamina recovery; Shieldmaiden Shield Wall reduces incoming damage; Seer Raven Hex launches omen-fire toward a draugr in front of you.
Know What Happens When You Fall
In the prototype, falling sends you back to the shore start. In the planned game, falling in battle may cause you to rise as a draugr in Hel's army, with friends able to free you during a Draugr Night using a pyre-ship lit by a fire arrow.
Valhella is an early prototype. Features and controls may change before release.
