NorseDemigods

Overview

Play as a demigod, a daughter or son of Odin blessed with the powers of the gods. This mod adds unique classes with magic, spells, abilities, items and more.

Please note that your advanced settings will be reset on every new update for rebalancing purposes, unless 'Automatically Update Configs' is disabled in your configs.

Setup

Do not rename "NorseDemigods.dll". Keep the accompanying files and folders alongside it, preserving the folder structure, or the mod may not function correctly.

On multiplayer servers, every player needs the same mod version and the same 'Demigods.yaml' and 'Consumables.json' as the server (for example, by using the server's modpack); otherwise, joining is refused.

Enhanced User Interface

For a cleaner, more advanced user interface, check out NorseDemigodsUI by RDMods / Safwan.

This optional addon provides an ability bar with hotkeys and cooldowns, energy and companion meters, detailed stats and tooltips, and a built-in wiki for your demigod.

Getting Started

• Check your in-game 'compendium' (click on the bird icon in the Tab menu) for all necessary instructions on how to get started. Your 'compendium' will be updated with more information after choosing a demigod, such as abilities, attributes, infused materials, and even the possible hotkey combinations for your abilities.
• You can change ability hotkeys in the '(Hotkeys)' section of your configs. You can also customize the interface in the 'User Interface' section and adjust it in real time using a configuration manager mod.

General Tips

• Although the mod is linearly balanced and somewhat vanilla friendly, once you get used to it, you could feel overpowered. It is recommended that you change the value of 'Difficulty' in the mod configs to something else, such as 'Expert' (recommended difficulty), or use the world modifiers or another mod to increase the game difficulty.
• This mod works with existing characters, but starting with a fresh character is recommended. Some demigods, such as Fenrir, rely heavily on their demigod skill to deal damage. This skill progresses naturally from the start of the game, but catching up may be tedious if you start late.
• You can enable and disable optional features in your configs, such as 'Teleportation' or 'Harpoon Fishing', which was inspired by the 'SpearFish' mod by Korppis, allowing you to catch fish with an Abyssal harpoon and upgrade it. This mod introduces sweet fish recipes, which are an almost essential type of food for demigods.
• Due to demigods having limited types of preferred weapons, I highly recommend the 'Warfare' mod by Therzie, which will not only introduce new weapons, but also new combat animations (for valkyries this is quite a big change with the introduction of pikes). Another excellent mod is 'ValheimArmory' by MidnightMods.

Hotkeys

Below are the default hotkeys for the commands that this mod introduces.

• Please note that some abilities are triggered by a combination of keys, which can all be found in your 'compendium' after choosing a demigod.
• Some abilities are triggered using the special attack in conjunction with another action, such as blocking or jumping. You can find all combinations in your 'compendium' after choosing a demigod.
• All hotkeys can be changed in the config file in section '(Hotkeys)'. It is recommended, however, that you use a configuration manager mod (such as the 'Official BepInEx Configuration Manager' mod by Azumatt) to bind the hotkeys directly in-game.

| Command | Default Hotkey | Comments | | --- | --- | --- | | Ability A | Front side mouse button | You should definitely change this hotkey if you do not have side mouse buttons. | | Ability B | Back side mouse button | You should definitely change this hotkey if you do not have side mouse buttons. | | Ability C | Blocking + Front side mouse button | You can assign a dedicated hotkey to this ability if you do not want to hold block. | | Ability D | Blocking + Back side mouse button | You can assign a dedicated hotkey to this ability if you do not want to hold block. | | Ignore Special Attack | Left Alt (Hold) | Some abilities override the weapon special attacks. Hold this key to use the weapon's normal special attack instead. | | Teleport | P | If you wish to disable the teleport ability, you can simply disable it in section 'Teleportation' in your configs (instead of unbinding the hotkey). |

Demigods

| Demigod | Brief Description | Favorite Element(s) | Favorite Weapon(s) | Preferred Armor | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Brokkr | Throw bombs that will destroy entire ore veins, launch lightning torpedoes, summon an elemental golem, and more. | Lightning & fire | Axes, clubs & crossbows | Heavy | | Eir | Heals, conjures an elemental shield and even organic matter, bringing light to even the depths of the underworld. | Spirit & fire | Spears, swords & shields | Heavy & light |
