BalancedIdolRefinement
Adds craftable recipes for all 16 Valheim 1.0 Battle and Protection Idols and prevents equipment destruction on Forge of Potential refinement failure (downgrades by 1 level instead of breaking).BalancedIdolRefinement
Rebalances the Valheim 1.0 Forge of Potential and Idol system so refinement remains high-stakes without permanently destroying your gear.
Features
- Craftable Idols (All 8 Tiers)
Registers craftable recipes for all 16 Battle Idols and Protection Idols at their corresponding crafting stations (
piece_workbench,forge,piece_blackforge). - No Equipment Destruction on Failure
Keeps the vanilla 65% success / 35% failure roll at the Forge of Potential. When the 35% failure occurs:
- The Idol is still consumed.
- Your equipment does not break; instead, its quality drops back by 1 level (clamped to a minimum of level 1).
- Disables the vanilla 35% scrap material refund on failure so failed refinements cannot duplicate crafting materials.
