This mod is a compilation of the following individual mods:
Samurai
Daowei
Gunjang
Bashrad
It also introduces the new Crusader content.
In the near future, the individual mods will be deprecated and eventually removed. To ensure a smooth transition and avoid disrupting your current playthroughs, the older mods will remain available for a limited time.
All future updates, balance changes, and new content additions will be made exclusively in this unified mod. Development on the individual mods will no longer continue separately.
I strongly encourage you to transition to this unified version to continue enjoying all the content seamlessly.

The Historical Arsenals mod brings together a diverse collection of historically inspired gear from different eras and regions. Each set reflects unique cultural traditions and craftsmanship. Every piece of armor and weapon is carefully balanced and fully integrated into Valheim's progression, offering new ways to gear up for every adventure.
Don't forget to visit Haldor — you'll need to buy a Runic Capsule from him to craft any gear from the Distant Origins series.


Walk the windswept path of Bashrad, where the warrior is shaped by sand, steel, and sun. A full set of armor and weapons drawn from the legacy of desert strength — curved blades, weighted shields, and battle-worn garments tempered for those who withstand what others cannot. Clad yourself in the spirit of the storm and carry into battle the bearing of those who stood firm under sun and wind alike.
Walk beneath the banner of sanctity as the Crusader, a warrior forged in devotion and clad in divine purpose. A full set of holy armor and relic weapons shaped by faith, sacrifice, and righteous command. Every chain bears a prayer, every blade answers to a higher calling. Step into battle as the hand of providence, and let the weight of your cause strike fear into the hearts of the unworthy.
Step onto the field of command with Gunjang, clad in traditional Korean armor and weapons inspired by the warriors of the Joseon dynasty. Each piece reflects the discipline, leadership, and refined craftsmanship of Korea’s military elite. To don this armor is to bear the weight of duty and the honor of command. In the chaos of battle, a true leader stands unwavering, a guiding force amid the storm. Let your presence command respect, your steel deliver judgment, and your legacy shape the course of history.
Walk the path of the Celestial Realms with Daowei. This armor and weapons are finely crafted in the traditions of great dynasties and legendary warriors. Each piece embodies the wisdom of sages and the might of rulers, a fusion of artistry and battlefield supremacy. From the commanding presence of the warplate to the deadly grace of the guandao, every strike echoes the will of those who shaped history. Adorn yourself in the legacy of the past and carve your own fate upon the battlefield.
Step into the spirit of feudal Japan with the Shogun. This gear is rooted in the discipline, honor, and artistry that defined the warrior elite of old Japan. Offering both functionality and cultural depth, this finely crafted equipment prepares you for battle and allows you to forge your own path of mastery and tradition. Every blade, every plate of armor carries the echoes of a warrior’s resolve, waiting for the next wielder to uphold the legacy.
