MidgardPlus

MidgardPlus

By Odin the Red. One mod to rule them all, and every part of it starts off.

Website and launcher | Player guide | Discord | Ko-fi | Megin, the add-on

MidgardPlus is a full overhaul for Valheim. It started as a quality of life pack and grew into a world of its own: 36 Jarl legendary weapons and two Jarl armour sets, all of them waking and growing with you, seven bosses of my own, living villages that grow into strongholds, five factions with sieges, diplomacy and a territory war, a loot system with runes, rune words and boss sets, the Vetrnætr season in October, companions who live in your barracks and work your base, an enchanting table and a painter's table, building tools, a map and compass that keep up with you, and a launcher in four languages. It has more than 1,100 settings, and every new feature starts off, so the game stays vanilla until you turn it on. Install it and your game plays exactly as before. Then turn on the parts you want.

Get the launcher at midgardplus.odinthered.dev. It picks your language for you.

A lot of it started as a message from a player. If something breaks, feels wrong or is missing, tell me on Discord.

What is inside

Every part below has its own switch, and every switch starts off. Turn on what you want in the launcher, the F9 panel or the config.

Quality of life you control

• Farming. A ghost on every spot a click will plant, rows that line up, bulk harvest, replant after harvest and seed beds that need no tilled ground.
• Storage. Quick stack, store all, restock, sort and a trash button that can recycle. Chests follow the signs you give them, barrels show what they hold, and stations fuel themselves from the chests around them.
• Slots and carrying. Up to six quick slots with their own keys, a trinket slot, slots for coins, keys and trophies, a backpack that adds bag rows, and an item magnet that pulls drops to you.
• Everyday comforts. Production timers, an item and recipe browser, a weather forecast, a better chat, a HUD you lay out yourself, instant equip and a hip lantern.
• Want bigger stacks and nothing else? Raise one number and leave the rest alone.

Combat and the Jarl legendaries

• 36 Jarl legendary weapons, named for the Jarls who back MidgardPlus: axes, swords, knives, spears, hammers, bows, crossbows, staffs, shields and gauntlets. Each has its own model and five powers: a shot, a large area attack, a secondary, a combo and a charged special. See them all on the weapons page and the lands they come from in the realms.
• The newest: Trajan's Hróðvitnir, a wolf bow with TRAJAN84 in Valheim lettering and a black Fenrir that breathes fire; Ivanos's Valgaldr, a soul staff that raises a Morgen; Animus' Skjoldr, a frost buckler that calls the Wild Hunt; Boko's Vein Tearer, a vampiric crossbow; and Moumix's Wayfinder, a spear that stretches into an atgeir, with red lightning, blood and Blood Thunder.
• They wake and grow. A legendary starts dormant. Awaken it in a boss's blood and it grows over 750 kills, its five powers waking in stages, and its look grows with it until it burns fully lit.
• They live in the hard places. Each legendary drops only at or above its own tier, and every world draws a stretch where it turns up far more often. Hugin's rumours point the way, and midgardplus legend where tells you what drops it.
• Trajan's Úlfheðnar, the first Jarl armour set. Helm, cuirass, greaves and cape, each found in a different land and each growing with kills, with wolf sight, pack hide, a hunter's stride, a red mantle of wolf spirits and set powers for the bow. See it in 3D.
• Creatures can carry traits that change the fight. Whetstones give a honed edge, and archery gets a quiver bar and arrows of light.
• The server picks how hard the legendaries hit, and every player picks how big their effects look.

Loot

• Marked gear. Gear can drop Magic, Rare, Epic or Legendary, sometimes cursed, with about 70 kinds of marks: life steal, thorns, a last stand, faster swings and
