📋 About This Mod
Magic comes to Valheim!
With this mod, adventurers are now able to craft powerful runes from the most various materials and use them to cast spells and (de)buffs. Get ready for a new type of gameplay!
Runes are divided in classes. As you use runes of each class, they'll grow stronger!
=== WHAT CAN RUNES DO?
Well, a lot of things! There are runes that deal damage to enemies around you, runes that poison, burn, slow, stagger or push them back.
There are also runes that recovers health or stamina. Runes that increase damage done, or decrease damage taken!
And much more!
=== CONFLICTS
[ BetterUI ]
BetterUI will make rune's tooltips not display correctly. To fix it, you need to set showCustomTooltips = false on BetterUI config.
[ BetterArchery ]
- BetterArchery will make projectile runes (Fireball, Ice Shard, etc) stop working. Sorry!
