Arrow feathers in Valheim
Since almost every recipe requires the use of feathers, many players may wonder how best to get them in large quantities. The most obvious solution is bird hunting. However, when shooting birds, you can spend more arrows than getting feathers from them. Therefore, the best source of this material will be troll caves and dungeons in the Dark Forest.
In these places you can find chests filled with feathers, flint arrows and other useful items. During a game day, you can collect about 30-40 feathers, which will be enough to craft 300-400 arrows of any type. In addition, feathers have a small chance of falling out during tree felling, but this source can only be regarded as an additional source.
