EliteCreaturesPack
New creatures with their own fights: a biting crypt chest, a slingshot greydwarf, a frost giant, a ship-hunting kraken, skeletons with bone weapons, a crypt executioner, and their weapons to make. Server synced. Required on server and all clients.Elite Creatures Pack
New creatures for Valheim, each with its own fight, and bone weapons to make.
Features
- Crypt Mimic: some crypt chests bite whoever opens them.
- Greydwarf Slinger: a greydwarf that shoots stones from afar.
- Rime Giant: a rare ice-plated mountain troll; fire breaks its plates.
- Kraken: a sea boss that hunts ships; its beak makes a shield that bites back.
- Skeleton Crossbowman: a skeleton whose bone crossbow reloads after every shot.
- Arsenal skeletons: skeletons with bone daggers, swords, axes, maces, spears, atgeirs and bows.
- Crypt Executioner: a burial chamber mini boss with a bone greataxe.
- Skeleton arsenal: the skeletons' bone weapons, crossbow and greataxe, to make at the workbench.
- With Elite Creatures Reborn (optional) they roll stars and mutations, a dormant mimic stays disguised, and the kraken needs 3.12.0 or later.
Install
Needed on the server and every client. Install with r2modman or the Thunderstore app, or put EliteCreaturesPack.dll
in BepInEx/plugins. Uninstalling deletes the mod's creatures and items, and a crypt chest that became a mimic stays
gone. On macOS the models may not show. Texts are English only for now.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/com.EliteCreaturesPack.cfg. Every setting is described in the file and reloads while the game runs;
the server's values bind every player. Console: charter status. Epic Loot needs an ECP_CryptMimic entry to give
the mimic magic items. Prefab names: https://github.com/geraldjglasgow/ValheimMods/blob/main/EliteCreaturesPack/CLAUDE.md
