INTRODUCTION

Here is my first "real" mod for Stardew Valley! This mod adds 20 new weapons with exclusive looks. I took a long time to polish those sprites so I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do! Please browse this mod screenshots to take a closer look at them and keep in mind stuff could change a bit in the future (description can be ajusted if any mistakes).

  • The weapons can spawn in Mines depending of the level : They have a (little) chance to spawn on monster/treasure loot. Like some of the vanillas, each of my additional weapon has its minimum mine level requirement, don't expect to see them below the level 50. Try to keep in mind those are rare droprate and you would be lucky to have more than 5 of them in a single playthrough (unless you farm mines like a LOT) droping one should feel like you earnt a trump card out of pure luck.
  • [NEW!] The weapons can be bought at Marlon's shop (adventurer guild) : The weapons are finally buyable at the aventurer guild. But first you need to clear their corresponding floor in the first mines (so ending the floor 120 will unlock them all). They appear as you progress and they have price in inspired range that will fit the mod "Stardew Valley Balance Overhaul" which is btw an must-have complete balancing mod for SV. Without this mod, the weapons will appear unsorted in the shoplist, sorry about that.
  • Those weapons are always the best alternatives for their level : Each weapon stats have been inspired by the already existing vanilla ones. Although for the same overall damage or may be a little less powerful, they bring stronger side bonuses thus dominating those firsts if we add this up. I do not believethey are "that" overpowered, I want to keep somekind of a difficulty up but yes they are very powerful in their respective leagues that's for sure! A lot of them have at least a minimal weight bonus to repel the rushing shadow boys in a more comfy way.
  • [NEW!] 4 of these weapons are "ultimate" : The 4 concerned weapons possess stats that even outshine the endgame infinity weapons. Although You might still have to hit some endgame foes several times to make them die (Coz I didn't want one-shot weapons). You can only attempt to buy those weapons when you have acquired your first galaxy weapon (the tier before infinity weapons). And it will cost you a spiky amount (500 000) so it's time for you to grind for a while by all your means!
  • Do those weapon have special abilities? : For now nope, it was kind of a headache to implement and I am not that good at modding stardew [yet] but may be in the future. On the other hands they all have very interresting stats and hidden aoe kind of spread damage (slay monster withing more reach, a feature that you can already find in few vanilla weapons like the lava katana).
  • If you grow impatient, unlucky or unwilling to spend your money because of poor incomes, consider install an item spawner mod : I totally get the frustration over the chance to loot one of those rare weapons by spamming mines and the fact that you don't necessarily have money to spend on them. The one mod to do just this that I could advise would be : CBJ item spawner.
  • About compatibility with other mods? : Since it's not a retexture but a standalone of its own that simply add entries to the game, therefore it's fully compatible with any version and even more any kind of mods, other weapon mods or massive expansion (even SVE or big expansions).

SPECIAL THANKS

I have to thanks two people that helped me big time recently. Thanks a lot Theoddon and Neopffe ! Theoddon for teaching me precious ways that I could not find on basic tutorials that unclogged my sorry stuck ass on one specific annoying issue haha and Neopffe for sharing his weapon designs mainly inspiring me for the Executioner Mace (mace) and the Masamune (katana) in my mod.

Finally we need to give great thanks to Solariaze who gently pointed me a solution to make those weapons spawn in shop! I was stuck and couldn't have make it happen on my own.
