PaganFastCrafting
Configurable crafting speed for Valheim. Choose between a flat craft time or skill-based scaling where each station pulls from the most relevant skill — and your combat mastery counts too!
Modes
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Off | Vanilla behavior — mod does nothing |
| Flat | Every craft takes FlatDuration seconds, regardless of skill |
| Skill | Craft speed scales with your relevant skill (default) |
Skill Mode — How It Works
Two layers always contribute and the best wins:
Layer 1 — Item skill (weapons and ammo only) Swords, Axes, Bows, Pickaxes, etc. If the item you're crafting has a real combat skill, that skill is in the pool.
Layer 2 — Station skill Every station has a mapped skill. Always contributes regardless of what you're crafting.
final_factor = Max(item_skill, station_skill)
This means a master crafter (Crafting 100) is fast at everything on their bench, and a master swordsman (Swords 100) is fast at forging blades even if their general crafting is low.
Station → Skill Mapping
| Station | Skill |
|---|---|
| Workbench | Crafting |
| Forge, Black Forge, Forge of Ages | Blacksmithing* |
| Stonecutter, Artisan Table | Crafting |
| Cauldron, Essence Cauldron | Cooking |
| Galdr Table, Magic Weaver | ElementalMagic or BloodMagic (best) |
| Hunter Table, Munitions Bench, Naval Workshop | Crafting |
| No station (inventory crafting) | Crafting |
*Incorporates Smoothbrain's Blacksmithing mod. Falls back to Crafting skill if not installed.

Compatibility
- Smoothbrain's Blacksmithing — fully supported. Install it and forge stations automatically switch to Blacksmithing skill.
- Original FasterCrafting (
1010101110.fastercrafting) — if detected, PaganFastCrafting disables itself and logs a warning. Remove the original mod to use this one. - Historical Heritage, Hunter's Legacy, Magic Supremacy — all modded stations mapped and confirmed.
- Non-Listed modded stations - Any non listed modded stations should fall back to the vanilla Crafting skill and relavent weapon skills to determine speed increase in "Skill" mode.
Notes
Vanilla's own skill-based craft time reduction is suppressed — this mod owns the curve entirely when Mode is not Off. The m_craftDurationSkillMaxDecrease field is zeroed so there's no double-dipping.
