How much does comfort extend the Rested effect?

Comfort 1 provides a minimum Rested duration of 8 minutes, and each additional comfort level adds 1 minute. Usual items can reach 29 minutes, while both rare seasonal items raise the maximum to 31 minutes.

Why should I refresh Rested before entering the Swamps?

It always rains in the Swamps, applying Wet and making stamina management a priority. Walk unless you need to run, upgrade your home to maximize the Rested timer, and aim for roughly 18 minutes of Rested time before the trip.

Valheim Comfort

Arrange a compact comfort room, avoid redundant furniture, and extend the Rested duration before stamina-intensive expeditions.

Build a compact resting room

Use a shelter near a fireplace, and keep every contributing comfort item within ten meters of your character.

Only the highest-level item from each category contributes. Items in the same category do not stack, and no item stacks with another copy of itself.

Items without a category can stack with different uncategorized items, so use distinct contributors instead of duplicate copies.
