How to Repair Tools in Valheim

Valheim is a difficult game to get to grips with and has a very steep learning curve. While it might seem obvious to some, it took me some time to realize how to repair tools in Valheim.

So, I will get straight to the point. Before you can repair any of your items, you will need to have a workbench, and to make the workbench, you will need a hammer.

Now that you’ve got your Workbench, you are ready to repair your tools. To do this, open up your workbench by approaching it and pressing E.

Inside your Workbench, you will see the hammer icon as pictured below. Make sure you have the right amount of materials in your inventory, and simply click the hammer button.

You will need to click the hammer for each item in your inventory, so if you are trying to conserve materials, make sure to store anything you don’t want repaired before doing this.

You can also upgrade and craft items from your workbench, as well as it is a requirement to build items, so make sure when you plan to build a base, you have the workshop near where you plan to build. You can always pick it up again later.
