Summary

Patch 1.0.15 for Valheim addresses a significant technical issue where duplicated terrain caused performance degradation. Players who experienced this may see visual seams, which can now be permanently fixed by deforming the terrain. The update also improves the gameplay experience in the Deep North by increasing the drop rates for Armor moulds from Jotun Warriors and boosting the presence of Writhans. Additionally, several fixes have been applied to items affected by developer commands to ensure they stack and display correctly.
