📋 About This Mod
Welcome to Monsternomicon, the Valheim experience that adds a whole new level of challenge to the game!
With Monsternomicon, you'll explore new locations in biomes that were previously unfinished, filled with a wide range of new enemies, each with unique strengths and weaknesses to keep you on your toes and designed to challenge even the most skilled Valheim players.
We've carefully balanced these monsters to provide a exigent, yet fair, gameplay experience that stays true to the original game.
Get ready to test your skills and adapt to new challenges as you explore the world of Valheim like never before!
To make sure there are no issues, it is necessary to remove old Monsternomicon files from your BepInEx/config/ folder before installing this update.
Since a new biome has been included, I strongly recommend starting a new world or at least saving the old one before installing Monsternomicon.
Thanks so much for the encouragement and the warm response to the previous Monsternomicon update and the DarkWoods itself.
This time, the new update has focused mainly on the Ashlands biome, but I have not only focused on creating new monsters and updating the old ones, but also on providing this biome with new points of interest (POI) that provide narrative and background to your games as well as new vegetation that fits with this fiery biome.
This is probably one of the most demanding updates so far, so I would love to receive your feedback and comments on your experiences.
On the other hand I have decided to create a Ko-fi account for those of you who wish to support me with the project. I was not planning to do it but several people have convinced me to use these donations to invest them in Monsternomicon.
Thank you very much for allowing me to continue working on Monsternomicon and improving the Valheim experience every day!
