How to get Stagbreaker in Valheim 

To craft Stagbreaker, you will need the following items.

  • 20 Core wood
  • 5 Deer Trophies: You will need to kill deer to get deer trophies.
  • 2 Leather Scraps: You can get leather scraps from boars in the game.

Once you get all of that, you can then make Stagbreaker in a workbench upgraded to level two; you can get the workbench to level two by placing a chopping block down next to it. The workbench will cost you ten wood, and the chopping block will need ten wood and ten flint.

After you craft Stagbreaker, you will get a pretty decent starting weapon with powerful AoE damage, but you will want to upgrade it to keep it useful for tougher monsters.

 If you don't, you're going to find it getting awful useless against bosses and stuff that goes bump at night in the swamps. That said, here's what you will need for the first Stagbreaker upgrade.
