Legends of Valheim Modpack
This is the current modpack required to play on the Legends of Valheim server.Legends of Valheim Modpack
You must have this modpack installed on your client to play on the Legends of Valheim server.
Biome and endgame overhauls
Most biomes have no changes, except for the addition of extremely rare mobs that you'll be lucky to see. The larger overhauls are given below. I've playtested each biome to make sure it works and to balance the challange and rewards.
The Deep North
The Deep North is mostly untouched with the exception of some peaceful (and rare) denizens that will tear you and your party to pieces if you try to mess with them. They will allow you to live alongside them provided you keep the peace.
The Mistlands
The viking that tries to step foot on this land will soon find themselves without a foot. This is not a place you can survive alone and without top-notch gear. But if you and your party do try to fight your way in against swarms of spiders and the native black elves, the Moonlit Warden will make sure you don't feel welcome. There are rumours that he keeps the secrets to art of enchanting close to his chest.
(There are more secrets here to explore...)
The Ashlands
Do you like it hot? No you don't. You will most definitely die. But rumour has it that the land is home to further enchanting secrets that would be useful for the living.
Mods
| Mod | Description |
|---|---|
| Valheim Plus | F4 to activate Advanced Building Mode. Makes furnaces/beehives/fermenter (and similar) pull from very nearby inventories and return the finished products. Craft from nearby chests. |
| Better Archery | Improves aim and projectile speed. Feels much better. |
| Cartography Skill | You level by exploring the map, which increases the map radius you uncover. |
| Cooking Skill | Improves food the higher your skill is. |
| Epic Loot | Adds enchanting into the game, but I've configured it so you have to learn it by stealing the secret from the Moonlit Warden in the Mistlands... and you'll surely die if you go there. |
| Fitness Skill | Affects stamina pool and regen. |
| Mod Config Enforcer | Clients ask for server's configuration files without overwriting local configs. |
| MonsterMash | Wonderful monsters with cusom spawning and drops that are either extremely rare or in endgame biomes. |
| Monsternomicon | Wonderful monsters with cusom spawning and drops that are either extremely rare or in endgame biomes. |
| Recipe Customization | |
| Skill Injector | |
| Valheim Permissions | |
| World of Valheim - SSC | Server-side characters. You start fresh and can't server-hop. Ensures a fair economy. You also start your character with pants! |
| Simple Recycling | You can recycle crafted items for half its resource cost. |
| Plant Everything | BLUEBERRIES OMG |
| Better Ladders | Ladders are terrible. This makes them less terrible. |

| Build Expansion | More building options. |
| Candles, Lanterns and Beeswax | More building options. |
| Cooking Station Tweaks | You can fit 5 meat on one station. |
| CustomContainerSizes | Larger chests and ships. Have to use this mod instead of V+ because the V+ larger chests are incompatible with EAQS and the Better Archery quiver. |
| Decreased Fall Damage | Scales fall damage with your Jump skill. Makes building tall buildings less annoying. |
| Fight Club | Lets you challange other players to PVP without death penalty. K to challange, L to accept. |
| Floors are Roofs | Floor pieces count as "roof" for providing shelter. |
| Fortify Skills | For each skill, you have a fortified level. When you die, you return all skills to their fortified levels. It increases slower, but it cannot go down. |

| InstantMonsterDrop | You don't have to wait for monsters to pop after they die. |
| JotunnLib | |
| KeezyBetterWolves | |
| Map Sharing Made Easy | Lets you place your map on a table, and other players can copy it into their maps and vice versa. Allows map trading! |
| More Gates | More building options. |
| Skills Give More Carry Weight | Run and Jump give 1 carry weight per level. |
| Speedy Paths | Roads increases run speed. |
| Useful Trophies | You can consume trophies for xp in a random skill. Means they won't clutter your inventory. |
| Drop That | Lets the server configure drops and mechanics for each mob. |
| Spawn That | Lets the server configure spawning mechanics for each mob. |
| VChat | Make in-game chat a bit cooler. |

| BetterUI | By default I've only activated some features, but you can configure this however you wish. |
| Camera Mod | Lets you zoom into first-person view. |
| CombatStance | You turn to where you're pointing when wielding a weapon. Useful for blocking. |

How to install
- Download and install r2modman (I assume the Thunderstore Mod Manager works the same, but I haven't tried.)
- After it's installed, open the manager and create a new profile. Name it "Legends of Valheim" or whatever you prefer.
- Search the online mods for "Legends of Valheim Modpack", click "Install" and select "Download with dependencies".
Active mods should now be Bepinex and Legends of Valheim Modpack. You are now ready to join the server! Just click "Start modded" in the top-left corner of the r2modman manager (or the manager of your choice).

TODO
- More secrets in the Deep North!
- Carefully configure the Better Trader to have more trades that don't break the balance and the player-based economy.
- Bears?
Changelog
1.0.2 - Careful Balancing and Better Trader
- Added the Better Trader into the game, but all his trades are by default disabled, and I only added in a select few like fish, berries and wood. We might add more trades in later, but we have to be careful so it doesn't get in the way of a player-based economy.
- Playtested and balanced the Mistlands and Ashlands to be a little harder. You shouldn't be able to survive unless you're in a party.
- Removed the fire golem (MonsterMash) from the Ashlands, since I can't change its damage, and it's too weak to be a boss.
- Made the fire drake into a boss, and now it replaces the secret functionality of the fire golem.
- Enabled CraftFromChest in V+.
- Made blue mushrooms (that you can now rarely find in the Mistlands) respawn extremely slowly if you plant them with the Plant Everything mod.
- Removed Passive Forsaken Powers.
