Eitr foods (for magic builds)

|---|---|---|---|
| Unbaked Poteitr | 110 | 37 | 19 |
| Fish Soup | 105 | 37 | 18 |
| Meatballs and Poteitr | 105 | 35 | 18 |
| Oven Pancake | 105 | 37 | 18 |
| Baked Poteitr | 100 | 34 | 17 |
| Marinated Greens | 95 | 32 | 16 |
| Smoked Fish | 95 | 30 | 16 |
| Oatmeal | 85 | 39 | 115 |
How food works
- Three food slots, each independent — the shortest duration in the trio is your effective buff window.
- Health/stamina regen values matter for sustained fights; the totals above are the caps.
- Swap one slot for an eitr food only if you actually cast — otherwise you waste a survivability slot.
What to do next
- Where ingredients come from: drops & farming
- Pair food with the right gear: armor sets
- Magic routes: magic & staffs

- How many foods can you eat at once in Valheim?
- You have three food slots and their bonuses stack. The effective buff duration is the shortest of the three foods you have eaten, so pairing a long-duration food with two others extends the window.
- What is the best food combo in Valheim?
- There is no single best trio — it depends on your build. For melee and exploration you want to maximize total health and stamina; for magic you trade one slot for an eitr food. The table on this page ranks the strongest trios from our food data.
