Mastery Extended

Mastery Extended is a mod for Stardew Valley that aims to allow the player more options to use the Mastery system.

Gaining Mastery Points

You can gain Mastery Points in the same way than in vanilla Stardew, but now you can start gaining them after you get level 10 in the corresponding skill, not only after getting level 10 in all of them.

Accessing the Mastery Cave

Other than the normal method, you can also get access if you get to Mastery Level 5 (configurable).

After getting access to the Mastery Cave, you can click on the pedestal to show the menu

Clicking the "Invest" button will show you the Skills Menu.

Clicking on one of the Skills will show you the Professions for that Skill.

Clicking on a Profession will add it to your character.

Claiming Mastery Pillar Rewards

You can't unlock them immediately as before. Now you need 3 professions in the Skill, so unlock at least one extra at the Pedestal. (configurable)
