When it comes to tackling Valheim's new Mistlands biome, the developers added in a new combat system: Magic. This powerful new option takes the shape of a handful of different staffs and weapons as well as its own armor set. This Eitr-Weave Armor is crucial for those players looking to take advantage of Valheim's magical system.
While this armor set plays an important part in this system, players are going to need to invest a lot of time in gathering the materials needed to create it. For those Valheim players looking to create the Eitr-Weave Armor set, this guide is here to help.
How to Create the Eitr-Weave Armor Set?
This armor set functions similarly to other sets in Valheim in that it consists of three pieces. The first is the Eitr-Weave Hood which requires 15 Linen Thread, 15 Refined Eitr, and 2 Iron. The Eitr-Weave Robe calls for 20 Linen Thread, 20 Refined Eitr, 10 Feathers, and 5 Scale Hides. The final piece, the Eitr-Weave Trousers requires 20 Linen Thread, 20 Refined Eitr, and 10 Scale Hide. This list of ingredients requires players to venture to the Plains biome as well as the Mistlands at a minimum.
Refined Eitr is produced by an Eitr Refinery through the combination of Sap and Soft Tissue, ingredients found in the Mistlands, while Scale Hides are dropped by the Hares that live in the same biome. Iron is the product of smelting the Iron Scraps players can harvest from Muddy Scrap Piles in the Swamp Biome and the Ancient Armor and Swords in the Mistlands. Linen Thread is the product of placing the Flax from the Plains biome into a Spinning Wheel.
What are the benefits of the Eitr-Weave Armor Set?
The Eitr-Weave Armor set is vital for those Valheim players interested in pursuing magic. The hood features a bonus +20 percent to the players Eitr regeneration while the robe and trousers each add 40 percent to that stat. Combined, this set can increase Eitr regeneration by 100 percent but does require the new Galdr Table added with Valheim's Mistlands update.
Unfortunately, where the drawback is with this armor set is its lack of defense. Each piece holds an armor stat of 16, totaling 48 with all three pieces equipped. This is much less than the new Carapace Armor introduced in this update (32 per piece) and just barely beats out Iron Armor (14 per piece). Players looking to use magic will have to rely on using the magic weapons and avoiding physical combat.
Valheim is available now for PC, and releases in early 2023 for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.
