⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Active development (last updated Feb 2026) — fresh and likely compatible with current Valheim.
- Simple concept that adds depth to hunting without overhauling the game.
- Community-tested with 102 endorsements and over 5,600 downloads.
👎 Cons
- Limited to specific animals — no mention of other creatures like fish or serpents.
- No detailed documentation on skill progression rates or yield formulas.
- Requires Valheim mod manager (BepInEx) — not a drop-in install.
