As the game is still in development, there may be other swords introduced later, but as it stands now, the two swords that we know about in Valheim is the Bronze Sword and the Iron Longsword. The game has a range of weapons that work against different types of enemies. Some work really well with the skeletons, while others with Greydwarf Brute. Therefore, we suggest that you craft a range of weapons in the game. Keep scrolling and we will show you how to build or craft the Bronze Sword and the Iron Longsword in Valheim. You will know how to get swords in Valheim
Valheim – How to Craft Bronze Sword
The Bronze Sword is another weapon you can create using bronze besides the Bronze Knife. As it’s obvious, the sword has more reach than the knife, but is slower. The Bronze Sword has a Slash of 25, Chop of 5, and Blocks 75%/20 damage.
You can craft the Bronze Sword in the Forge after you have acquired Copper in the game. The recipe for the sword are 2 Wood, 15 Copper, and 4 Tin. Once you have the materials in their required quantity, you can craft the sword in the Forge.
Valheim – How to Craft Iron Longsword
The Iron longsword is a superior option to the above sword with Slash 30. In fact, it’s the best known sword so far in the game. You can take out a Surtling or Greydwarf with just a single swing of the sword, while taking down Draugr or Greydwarf Brute requires four hits.
The left-click of the mouse allows you to swing the sword, which can take out multiple enemies in range. Greydwarf who attack in groups and are always closer to one another can be taken out at once. Just like the Stagbreaker, when an enemy takes a hit with the sword, it will be pushed back, so you have time to prepare another attack. The Iron Longsword has a Slash of 30, Chop of 5, and Blocks 75%/20 damage.
To craft the Iron Longsword in Valheim, you need to first acquire Iron. Once you have acquired that, the recipe will be unlocked and you can craft the sword. You require 2 Wood and 25 Iron in order to build the sword.
