README

⚔️ EpicLootAdjustments

Customize Epic Loot for progression in Valheim.

EpicLootAdjustments is a BepInEx plugin that balances loot progression, reduces heavy legendary set ability effects, and cleans up the Epic Loot interface.

✨ Features

🛡️ Zone-Based Loot Progression

Prevents creatures from dropping gear that exceeds the material tier of their home biome.

  • Supports vanilla drops and Epic Loot magic item rolls.
  • Removes over-tier weapons, armor, shields, tools, and ammunition. Drops are never rewritten into a different item.
  • Materials, shardstones, food, and trophies are left exactly as Drop That / Epic Loot rolled them.
  • Supports optional exceptions from Drop That configuration files, allowing specific creature/item combinations to bypass the zone restrictions.

Biome progression: Meadows → Black Forest → Swamp → Mountain/Ocean → Plains → Mistlands → Ashlands → Deep North.

🔊 Legendary Set Ability Effects

Reduce the volume and visual intensity of legendary set abilities.

  • Audio volume: Configurable, default 0.35.
  • Visual effects: Optional smoke, particle, and visual reduction.
  • Includes effects associated with Ragnar, Berserker, Bulwark, Undying, and related set abilities.
  • Uses compatibility-safe optional hooks to accommodate Epic Loot API differences.

🖥️ Interface Customization

Hide Epic Loot's pause-menu Mod Config button.

  • Enabled by default.
  • BepInEx configuration files remain available for adjusting settings.

⚙️ Configuration
