Village Artifacts Mod — Guide

Mechanics

Trade Manipulation

One of the most powerful features of the mod is the ability to manage trades without the frustration of vanilla RNG. - Restocking: Using a Rough Emerald Shard on a villager with a red 'X' over their trade will force a restock. Note that this may slightly increase the price of the item as a trade-off for the convenience. - Profession Resetting: The Scroll of Hubris allows players to change a villager's job even after they have been locked in by trading. This is essential for fixing "broken" trading halls.

Reputation Management

The Ichor of Virtue is a critical tool for players who accidentally damage villagers or golems. Each use increases the player's internal reputation score by 6 points, which lowers trade prices and prevents golems (non-upgraded ones) from becoming aggressive.

Village Logistics

The Golemsteel Brazier functions similarly to how wheat attracts cows. By holding the brazier, players can lead a group of villagers to a new location or into a trading hall without the need for boats, minecarts, or complicated pathfinding manipulation.
