About this mod Author’s original text

BossNBows

This mod add 7 bows to the game, with biome progression based on boss kill & farm, a new feature named Bow Mode & some tweaks to bow gameplay.

News Bows

  • EikthyrBow
  • ElderBow
  • BonemassBow
  • ModerBow
  • YagluthBow
  • QueenBow
  • FaderBow

Each bow has his own effect, like a piercing shot every X attacks or some aoe features.

To unlock them, you need to first defeat the boss & get some mats in the next biome.

The EikthyrBow is a BlackForest bow for example.

Extra features

  • Dash after attack, it can be disbaled via config if you don't like it.
  • 3 new bow mode: Fast, Heavy & Turret. Default keybind is G to rotate between modes (work only with a bow or a crossbow equiped)

Installation

Unzip & put the.dll file in the bepinex/plugins folder.

Add the Translation folder named "BossNBows" to any folder inside the bepinex/config folder.

Translations

Available in French at this moment!

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
