LegacyWard Mod

By WackyMole

Overview

Welcome to LegacyWard, a Valheim mod that introduces a unique protection system for player builds. LegacyWard offers a new gameplay experience by allowing players to explore the world without Admins fearing of their structures being damaged, while also providing a mechanism for claiming and personalizing these builds using a rare token.

Features

• Build Protection: LegacyWard shields player structures from damage, creating a safe haven for your creations in the vast and dangerous world of Valheim.

• Exploration Emphasis: With LegacyWard, admins can focus on builds and admin duties without the constant worry of returning to a dilapidated legacy structures.

• Claiming System: A rare token is introduced as part of the mod, enabling players to claim a protected build as their own. This adds an element of rarity and strategy to the mod.

• Reverse Ward Concept: LegacyWard operates as a reverse ward, safeguarding structures instead of keeping entities out. This innovative approach enhances the immersive nature of Valheim.
