🎯 Tips & Tricks
Back up your save before installing, just in case the mod changes weapon stats in a way that breaks your current gear.
If you're using other weapon mods, check load order—this mod might conflict with anything that alters polearm damage types.
Test the mod on a new character first to see if the rebalanced polearms feel right before committing to your main save.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Fixes a real balance issue—polearms are notoriously weak against pierce-resistant enemies
- Small but dedicated following (40 endorsements) shows it works for some players
- Lightweight mod that doesn't overhaul the whole game, just polearms
👎 Cons
- Last updated in March 2022—might be outdated with current Valheim patches
- No detailed patch notes or feature list, so you're flying blind on what exactly changes
- Only 40 endorsements—could be buggy or not widely tested
