About this project

What does Vaughn's Sophisticated Gear add?

I AM CANCELLING THIS PROJECT FOR PERSONAL REASONS. If anyone wants to take over, feel free to respond, and I'll happily transfer ownership :)

Vaughn's Sophisticated Gear adds new variations of gear to Hytale. From repurposing daggers into butterfly knives or combat claws to adding different spikes to shields, you can personalize your gear in several unique fashions! Currently, only a few weapon types are customizable, and I aim to add tool and armor customization in the future.

All gear variations can be crafted at the Artisan's Anvil, and there are even a few unique recipes you can unlock!

Feel free to leave suggestions below :)

New additions include:

Butterfly knives (which behave like daggers but are one-handed, weaker, and have their own animations. THIS FUNCTIONALITY WILL CHANGE IN FUTURE UPDATES!).
Spiked shields (each tier does more damage than the previous when blocking. The tiers are Gold, Copper, Bone, Iron, Cobalt, Thorium, Adamantite, Adabalt, Cobalantite, and Diamond).
Combat claws (behave just like daggers without spinning animations).
Chained broadswords (behave just like swords).
Void and magma aspects on certain weapons.

Future goals:

New designs for every type of gear (pickaxes, maces, shovels, hammers, armor, shears, etc.)
