Enhanced Potions Mod for Valheim

Enhanced Potions adds new powerful mead bases and potions in Valheim.

Available on Nexus Mods

Available on Thunderstore.io

I intended to provide a few tweaks in the gameplay for a mid-more-to-end game phase.

Mead Base Recipe List

It currently adds 7 sets of mead base and potions. The default requirements are quite pricey, but it's totally customizable.

- Megingjord's extract

Gives the drinker a god's strength

Duration 600s (10s)

Increased max carry weight, slower health regeneration.

- Bifröst's apozem

Allows unrestricted Portal use

Duration 450s (7m 30s)

Portal usage without any restrictions, slower health and stamina regeneration

- Tyr's decantation

Gives the power of flight

Duration 210s (3m 30s)

You can fly but can carry less weight

Instructions: Double-tap JUMP to activate/deactivate it. Press JUMP to go up and CROUCH to go down.

- Hrungnir's effusion

Gives the power of breathing and walking underwater

Duration 600s (10s)

You can breathe and walk underwater, stamina regeneration is slower.

Instructions: You can recover stamina by staying put

- Spyja solution

Smelling horrible and tasting even worse, it will make you vomit

Duration 20s (20s)

You feel sick, health and stamina regeneration is slower

Instructions: Clears the effects of all the consumed goods (food, potion and mead) while in effect and slows stats regeneration

Stamina over time and increased stamina and health regeneration

- Greater Health solution

Restores health

Duration 300s (5m)

Health over time and increased health and stamina regeneration

Installation

• Use Vortex Mod Manager

OR

• Download and install BepInEx Valheim
• Download and install JotunnLib
• Download this mod and move the zip content so the <GameLocation>\BepInEx\plugins\EnhancedPotions directory looks like this:
  • Assets
  • DefaultEnhancedPotions.json
  • EnhancedPotions.dll
  • Newtonsoft.Json.dll
  • System.Data.dll
  • System.Runtime.Serialization.dll

Configuration

Run the game at least once with the mod enabled and then edit the <GameLocation>\BepInEx\config\hbocao.EnhancedPotions.json file.

ATTENTION: Do NOT change the MeadPrefabName and PotionPrefabName fields in the JSON. This will bring only pain and make Odin very disappointed.

Future updates

• More potions: I want to make use of the common overstocked items (dandelions, leather scraps, ancient seeds, trophies, etc) and also introduce new possibilities
• Improve assets: The mod currently uses the MeadBaseTasty and MeadTasty 3D assets and very poorly made sprites
• Improve animations

Known Issues

• The game uses the first item available in the inventory, so it might use the equipped Megingjord. I could patch that but I've decided to keep the mod as clean as possible.
