MidgardPlus

MidgardPlus

By Odin the Red. One mod to rule them all, and every part of it starts off.

Website and launcher | Player guide | Discord | Ko-fi | Megin, the add-on

MidgardPlus is first and foremost a quality of life mod: one mod that replaces the hundreds of small ones most of us run, with better versions of each and no fights between them. Farming, storage, crafting from nearby chests, building tools, the map and compass, inventory, tames, the HUD and much more, all in one place with more than 1,500 settings. Every feature starts off, so your game plays exactly as before until you switch on the parts you want.

On top of that, and just as optional, there is extra content you can toggle: 45 Jarl legendary weapons and five Jarl armour sets that wake and grow with you, three Hallow King weapons, eight bosses of my own, living villages and factions with sieges, companions who live in your barracks and work your base, Lantern Rings, an enchanting table, the Vetrnætr season in October, and a launcher in five languages.

Get the launcher at midgardplus.odinthered.dev. It picks your language for you.

A lot of it started as a message from a player. If something breaks, feels wrong or is missing, tell me on Discord.

What is inside

Every part below has its own switch, and every switch starts off. Turn on what you want in the launcher, the F9 panel or the config.

Quality of life you control

• Farming. A ghost on every spot a click will plant, rows that line up, bulk harvest, replant after harvest and seed beds that need no tilled ground.
• Storage. Quick stack, store all, restock, sort and a trash button that can recycle. Chests follow the signs you give them, barrels show what they hold, and stations fuel themselves from the chests around them.
• Slots and carrying. Up to six quick slots with their own keys, a trinket slot, slots for coins, keys and trophies, a backpack that adds bag rows, and an item magnet that pulls drops to you.
• Everyday comforts. Production timers, an item and recipe browser, a weather forecast, a better chat, a HUD you lay out yourself, instant equip and a hip lantern.
• Want bigger stacks and nothing else? Raise one number and leave the rest alone.

Combat and the Jarl legendaries

• 45 Jarl legendary weapons, named for the Jarls who back MidgardPlus: axes, swords, knives, spears, hammers, bows, crossbows, staffs, shields and gauntlets. Each has its own model and five powers: a shot, a large area attack, a secondary, a combo and a charged special. See them all on the weapons page and the lands they come from in the realms.
• Three Hallow King weapons: Reaper's Harvest, Jack's Reckoning and Lantern of the Lost. Beat the Hallow King with Hallow Hunt on and he may drop one. They start at Black Forest strength and grow with you like the Jarl weapons.
• The newest: Trajan's Hróðvitnir, a wolf bow with TRAJAN84 in Valheim lettering and a black Fenrir that breathes fire; Ivanos's Valgaldr, a soul staff that raises a Morgen; Animus' Skjoldr, a frost buckler that calls the Wild Hunt; Boko's Vein Tearer, a vampiric crossbow; and Moumix's Wayfinder, a spear that stretches into an atgeir, with red lightning, blood and Blood Thunder.
• They wake and grow. A legendary starts dormant. Awaken it in a boss's blood and it grows over 750 kills, its five powers waking in stages, and its look grows with it until it burns fully lit.
• They live in the hard places. Each legendary drops only at or above its own tier, and every world draws a stretch where it turns up far more often. Hugin's rumours point the way, and midgardplus legend where tells you what drops it.
• Trajan's Úlfheðnar, the first Jarl armour set. Helm, cuirass, greaves and cape, each found in a different land and each growing with kills, with wolf sight, pack hide, a hunter's stride, a red mantle of wolf spirits and set powers for the bow. See it in 3D.
• Creatures can carry traits that change the fight. Whetstones give a honed edge, and archery gets a quiver bar and arrows of light.
• The server picks how hard the legendaries hit, and every player picks how big their effects look.

Loot

• Marked gear. Gear can drop Magic, Rare, Epic or Legendary, sometimes cursed, with about 70 kinds of marks: life steal, thorns, a last stand, faster swings and many more.
• 24 runes and 14 rune words. Rare, Epic and Legendary pieces carry sockets. Set runes at the enchanting table, and the right runes in the right order speak a rune word.
• 14 boss sets. Every boss drops pieces of its own set, with a power for two, three and four pieces worn.
• Marks that awaken, rolled Norse names, sealed bundles from Haldor and Hildir, and a table that breaks down what you no longer want.
• Runic looks. Enchanted gear shows its step in glowing runes and polished metal, with element runes for elemental marks, instead of a colour wash. Try it on the enchanting table preview.

Bosses

• Seven bosses of my own: Mosskin, Vordr of the Reeds, the Gravejarl, Úlfarr the Unfed, Bókr the Ledger-Eater, Þögn the Unanswering and the Red One. Each rises from his own altar, with his own stages, attacks and great move. Meet them in the Bestiary section of the site.
• Cinematic fights. An intro and a title card, the music, a ring of light around the arena, set pieces at every stage, and a death that is marked.
