DeepNorthUtilityItems

While researching Valheim’s utility items, have you ever discovered that the game files contain two fully functional but unobtainable items—IceShoes and IceSkates? This mod makes them available as Utility-slot equipment and lets you configure how to obtain each one.

The Utility Items

• Ice Spikes — Wearing Ice Spikes suppresses skating, allowing you to walk normally on ice. By default, they are craftable at a level 5 Workbench for 6 Long Claws, 6 Frostwood, and 2 Leather Straps.
• Ice Skates — Wearing Ice Skates increases skating speed and makes turning easier while skating on ice. By default, Haldor sells them for 1,000 coins after Fader is defeated.

Configuration Options

Each item can independently be configured to be craftable, sold by Haldor, both, or neither. For craftable items, the station, level, and complete ingredient list are configurable. Enter ingredients as comma-separated prefab ID and amount pairs, for example MoleClaws:6,Frostwood:6,Leatherstraps:2. Haldor price, purchase amount, and progression key are also configurable per item. Leave an item's Haldor progression key empty for no gate; any Valheim global key can be used. This mod adds stock to vanilla Haldor. Custom trader mods can add either item through their own stock configuration.

Notes

Both items use custom icons, but neither currently displays a model on the character when equipped. Ice Spikes and Ice Skates activate different vanilla movement effects. Wearing Ice Spikes suppresses skating, so treat them as alternative Utility items when using a mod that adds extra Utility slots.
