The Ripper is a crossbow in Valheim, dealing 220 pierce. At 220 total damage it is 3rd of the 5 crossbows, so it is a step on the ladder rather than the top of it. Pierce damage hurts Tick and Troll more than most things, which is what to carry it for.

How to Craft


  • Crafted at Black forge, station level 3.
  • Costs 10x Ashwood, 8x Flametal, 2x Morgen sinew, 4x Bonemaw tooth at quality 1.
  • Materials can be found in the Ashlands biome.

When to Use It


Late game. Flametal is in the Ashlands, the furthest south the map goes and, until 1.0, the hardest biome in the game.

Upgrades


Upgraded 3 times after crafting, each level wanting the station built one step further up than the last. Every figure quoted elsewhere on this wiki is quality 1, so this is the ladder your own copy is somewhere on:

Properties


220 pierce, the hardest single hit in the game. 20 more than the Arbalest before the bolt is counted, still for one stamina to fire.

Fit the gemstone before you climb the ladder. An upgraded Ripper does not keep its quality level when a gemstone is fitted: it comes back at quality 1 and the whole ladder is paid again. The 3 are Wound Ripper (Bloodstone), Storm Ripper (Iolite) and Root Ripper (Jade).

One bolt every 6 seconds. Loading takes 3.5 seconds and 3 stamina at skill 0, and with the ready and firing animations that is the real rate of fire. A sprint or a jump throws the load away, and a bolt cannot be loaded while sprinting at all.

Notes


  • Loading takes 3.5 seconds and 4 stamina, and with the ready and firing animations the weapon can only be fired once every 6 seconds.
  • Jumping or sprinting resets loading progress, and bolts cannot be loaded while sprinting.
  • A loaded bolt is lost when you switch weapons: the crossbow reloads from empty whenever it is equipped again.
