⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Tight focus on a common complaint—skill progression feels weak—so it directly addresses a real issue.
- Decent traction for a niche mod: 72 endorsements and 5,907 downloads show it's getting used.
- Actively maintained—last updated August 2026, so it's likely compatible with current Valheim patches.
👎 Cons
- No detailed feature list or patch notes in the description, so you're flying blind on exactly what changes.
- Small mod with a narrow scope—if you're looking for a full overhaul, this won't cover combat or crafting.
- Only 72 endorsements, so community feedback is limited; you're taking a bit of a gamble on balance.
