MasterCrafting

MasterCrafting

A Valheim mod that adds an "Artisanship" skill that grants stat bonuses and status effects to items crafted or upgraded by the player.

Features

• Artisanship Skill: A new craftable skill that levels up as you craft and upgrade items.
• Stat Bonuses: Items crafted by players with higher Artisanship skill receive permanent bonuses
• Hard cap: All bonuses are capped at 100% (double stats) to prevent game-breaking values
• Masterwork Proc: Chance to automatically increase item quality by +1 when crafting/upgrading

Bonus Effects: Chance to apply random permanent status effects to crafted weapons, shields, and armor XP System: Earn XP based on the crafting station used:

• Workbench: 22 XP
• Forge: 45 XP
• Artisan Table: 55 XP
• Black Forge: 65 XP
• Galdr Table: 65 XP
• Power Preservation: Items retain their original power from when they were first crafted. Upgrading only increases power if your skill level is higher than when you first crafted the item.
