About BetterTraders

From Thunderstore

Haldor, Hildir, and the Bog Witch buy/sell in a vanilla way.

BetterTraders

Haldor, Hildir and the Bog Witch trade like real merchants, but only once you have earned it. This mod tries to be very balanced for a more vanilla like experience.

Features

Haldor

  • Sells refined goods once the boss of the biome they come from is defeated:
  • metal bars, coal, refined eitr, linen thread and flour
  • crafted materials such as bronze, iron nails and chains
  • meads
  • crafted gear can be added with a toggle; it's off by default
  • Sells meals only through a daily menu at a discount: a couple of meals from each unlocked biome, a new menu each day. A biome's meals unlock one boss early: Black Forest meals after Eikthyr, Plains meals after Moder, Meadows meals from the start
  • Buys crafted gear, tools and food, smelted and cooked goods, valuables, Sap and Soft Tissue
  • Buying is expensive and selling pays very little, so gathering it yourself is still the way to go

Hildir

  • Once you have returned one of her chests, she buys any extra you bring her

Bog Witch

  • Sells the Forge of Potential idols for armour and weapons at a steep price

Pricing

  • raw materials are valued by biome
  • crafted items are worth their ingredients
  • smelted and cooked items are worth what goes in
  • Every value and single item can be adjusted in the config

Installation

Install with your mod manager, or drop the DLL into BepInEx/plugins.

Compatibility

Don't run it together with another mod that changes Haldor, such as Traders Extended.
