Rherrajan's Challenge
A modpack for veterans seeking new challenges. Handpicked mods and configurations for a challenging and refreshing playthrough, with the potential for faster progression.

Embark with a new character in a new world!
Description
Increase the Difficulty
- Start in a random location
- Respawn in random locations (while keeping equipped items and hotbar items)
- Use a compass instead of a map
Face Greater Challenges
- Enemies deal more damage in early biomes
- New attack patterns for bosses
Enhance Progression
- Faster mining, carrying, and sailing progression, and more
- Swamp and later biomes have squishy (yet still deadly) enemies
- No skill loss upon death
Tips
- Place signs to mark memorable locations with these words: fire, base, hammer, dot, portal
- Store valuable items in your hotbar to prevent them from dropping when killed
- In the meadows, you can cut down small trees with any weapon
- Use the standing stones in your compass for orientation
- Access the map via a vegvísir or a cartography table (craftable in the bronze age)
- The compass displays locations within 3000 meters
- The sun rises in the east, use it as a clock
- Eikthyr is way stronger, defeat some trolls before facing him
- Enemies can harm each other, exploit this to your advantage
- Craft a teleportation mead in the cauldron using AncientSeed, TurnipSeed, and FirCones

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- 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.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- 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.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
