The newest patch from Valheim developers Iron Gate Studio makes bosses more difficult in addition to squashing that World Destroyer bug.
That bug was pretty bad if you happened to encounter it. Essentially, all your character data wiped. At the time, the team couldn’t replicate it and warned people to manually back up their character files. Thankfully, this latest patch sees a fix to that particular issue.
Additionally, world bosses Bonemass, Moder, and Yagluth have seen their difficulty increased. Vulkan support was also enabled for Windows machines. You can force it by entering “-force-vulkan” in the game launch arguments.
