Epic Loot v0.6.3 - Augmenter Update!

Author: RandyKnapp Source: Github

Patch notes: https://github.com/RandyKnapp/ValheimMods/blob/main/EpicLoot/patchnotes.md

This mod aims to add a loot drop experience to Valheim similar to Diablo or other RPGs. Monsters and chests can now drop Magic, Rare, Epic, or Legendary magic items. Each magic item has a number of magic effects on it, that give bonuses to the item or your character when that magic item is equipped.

The mod is currently in Early Access! That means it's not done! Be patient as the author adds new features, fixes bugs, and finishes things up. If you want to help, please provide feedback on the Nexus mod page or on the github for the following:

• Bugs (check to make sure your bug is new and not already reported)
• Balance Issues (drops too strong? Too weak? Ruin the crafting progression?)
• Missing content (check the TODO list below to make sure the author isn't already planning to do it)
• Suggestions for new magic item effects
• Suggestions for something else like UI or art improvements

EpicLoot works in multiplayer and on dedicated servers! The server and all players should have the mod and its dependencies installed.

Information about every magic effect and loot drop table can be found in info.md.

--> CORE FEATURES <--<<

Quiver Retrievable arrows Zooming while drawing the bow Aim improvements Arrow physics improvements

--> QUIVER <--<< Enable/Disable in the config file

Currently, the mod has 1 quiver type. That quiver type is the leather quiver which has a special model for itself. The leather quiver can be crafted with 20 leather scraps, 10 deer hides, and 10 troll hides. Equipping the leather quiver gives 3 extra arrow slots to the player and arrows can be changed with hotkeys (default alt + 1,2,3).

--> BOW ZOOM <--<< Enable/Disable in the config file

You can zoom in by holding the "Right Mouse Button" (default) while drawing the bow. or, you can enable "Bow Auto Zoom" if you want to zoom automatically while bow drawing. (Disabled by default) Added configurable bow drawing cancel key. The default is "E". After bow drawing release, if you still holding the zoom key, you can stay in zoom for a second.

--> RETRIEVABLE ARROWS <--<< Enable/Disable in the config file

You can collect your arrows back! but of course, with a chance. You can change the chances and the arrow types in the config file.

Wooden arrows have a 20% chance to drop a wooden arrow after hit. Flint arrows have a 30% chance to drop a flint arrow after hit. Bronze arrows have a 50% chance to drop a bronze arrow after hit. Iron arrows have a 70% chance to drop an iron arrow after hit. Obsidian arrows have a 70% chance to drop an obsidian arrow after hit. Needle arrows have a 10% chance to drop a needle arrow after hit. Fire arrows have a 0% chance to drop anything after hit. What did you expect? Poison arrows have a 70% chance to drop an obsidian arrow after hit. Silver arrows have a 50% chance to drop a silver arrow after hit. Frost arrows have a 70% chance to drop an obsidian arrow after hit.

--> ARCHER IMPROVEMENTS <--<< Enable/Disable in the config file

Now, you can use your crosshair properly. Arrows now go your crosshair, not under of it. And, of course, has a similar gravity arc as vanilla. Arrow gravity and velocity adjusted for more realistic physics. (Still testing out for the perfect result.) Added wooden arrow, elemental arrows to the crafting menu. You can change as you want in "BetterArcheryRecipes.json". You can now see your sneak damage on the top left. Just like in Skyrim! You can enable/disable crosshair.

--> COMPATIBILITY <--<<

The following mods are compatible: Planting Plus Equipment and Quick Slot (2.0.4)

The following mods are compatible unless: Valheim Plus - As Krysez said, you can disable Valheim Plus' inventory or disable the quiver. - Camera feature preventing the use of Bow zoom. More Slots - You just need to change quiver location in the config to at least {"x":3.0, "y":-167.0} for fixing visibility. Also, there may issue with 3 slots in the inventory.

The following mods are not compatible:

--> INSTALLATION <--<<

If you didn't install BepInEx yet, you can check out this link. Drop the mod's "BetterArchery" folder in your BepInEx/plugins folder.  First game launch after installing the mod will create config file located in "Valheim\BepInEx\config" named "ishid4.mods.betterarchery.cfg". Also, you can change recipes by editing the .json file which should be located in "Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\BetterArchery" named "BetterArcheryRecipes.json".

--> TODO <--<<

Fix conflict issues. Making the game's archery similar to Skyrim! Quiver back attachment. New quiver type. Bow drawing while sneaking.

Author's Note: Older versions of this mod used an image of the Odal rune (ᛟ) to denote set items. It's reconstructed Proto-Germanic meaning is "Heritage" or "Possession" and the author felt like it was the best rune from the Elder Futhark to signify set items. However, the Odal rune with wings or feet was and is used as a Nazi symbol. The author UNEQUIVOCALLY CONDEMNS Nazis, Nazism, anti-semitism, and white supremacy. Furthermore, those who hold or practice those beliefs are not welcome to use this mod. F**k Nazis.
