For Valheim players who feel Padded Armor comes too easily and want a more challenging endgame. Also for modpack authors who want to adjust progression. Skip if you're fine with vanilla crafting or want bigger content overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the DLL in your BepInEx/plugins folder — no extra steps needed.
- If you're using a mod manager, make sure it's enabled after BepInEx.
