DowngradeableIdols
Downgrade Forge of Potential idols to a lower tier. 1:1 ratio.Downgradeable Idols
A Valheim mod (pure BepInEx + Harmony, no Jötunn) that lets you downgrade Forge of Potential idols into the idol of the tier below, 1:1, at a normal Workbench.
The Forge of Potential uses a single idol of the matching tier to upgrade a weapon/armor piece. Because higher-tier idols are found in higher-tier biomes, it is easy to end up with idols you have no use for. This mod turns those into the lower-tier idols you actually need, without changing the Forge itself.
