About this mod Author’s original text

This mod gives the harpoon the spear primary attack and moves the harpoon throw to the secondary attack. Additionally, it changes its stats and makes it upgradeable.

It's a part of my spear mod collection

  • Proper Spears - Forward Facing With Thrust Attacks
  • Loyal Spears - Auto Pickup And Return To Owner
  • Harpoon Melee Attack And Upgrading
  • Atgeir/Polearm Animation Fix

Stats and Upgrading

The damage of the new primary attack is between the Bronze Spear and the Ancient Bark Spear. The amount of chitin required to craft the Abyssal Harpoon has been reduced from 30 to 20, and it can now be upgraded with 10/20/30 chitin, just like the Abyssal Razor. Lastly, its durability is higher and increases even more with upgrading.

Primary Attack

The primary attack animation is now identical to all other spears, while the unique throw of the harpoon is now the secondary attack. If you hook something with the throw attack, the line will break when you use the primary attack.

If Proper Spears - Forward Facing With Thrust Attacks is installed, the harpoon also receives its new long range primary thrusting attack and idle animation. It will temporarily revert to the old idle animation after using the harpoon throw until you attack again to not look weird while dragging something.

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:
