    5 best QOL mods for Windrose

    There are a few QOL mods that endgame Windrose players can take advantage of. After reaching level 15, the focus shifts away from XP grind and onto resource farming, which is necessary to build a pirate base of one’s dreams. To do so, you can even migrate your base from the introductory island and settle down near rocky landscapes or unique island designs.

    That said, this article sheds light on the top five QOL mods that help improve your Windrose experience.


    Five best quality of life mods for Windrose

    1) MoreStacks by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods)

    The vanilla stack sizes in Windrose call for a ludicrous amount of storage crates. This makes you lose track of your weapons, jewelry, clothing, and more.

    This is where the QOL mod MoreStacks by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods) comes into play. We can increase the stack sizes for every item in the game. This makes it easy to store more items in one crate, allowing better resource management.


    2) Extended Bonfire Radius by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods)

    While building a dream base, you will come across the bonfire range problem. Essentially, the bonfire radius serves as a limiting element that determines how far certain items can be built without hampering their operation.

    The Extended Bonfire Radius by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods) is a QOL mod that increases this limit and allows players to better experiment with massive base layouts. This also enables one to build decorations further away from the base


    3) More Fast-Travel points by Synthlight (nexusmods)

    A majority of the procedurally generated world in Windrose consists of the sea. This makes sea travel the primary form of exploration. However, when you reach the endgame and start to farm resources from various locations, the limited fast-travel bell availability poses a serious problem.

    More Fast-Travel points by Synthlight (nexusmods) is a quality-of-life mod that increases this limit for fast-travel points as well as signal fires. This allows players to construct a fast-travel bell on every island they visit, thus ensuring easier access to all available locations.


    4) Enhanced Merchant by christianwidjaya (nexusmods)

    Resource farming becomes the primary grinding aspect of the game when you reach level 15. However, the limited availability of certain items like silver ingots, gold ingots, and tumbaga ingots makes it impossible to level up or ascend every weapon or piece of jewelry you possess.

    This is where the Enhanced Merchant by christianwidjaya (nexusmods) comes into play. This QOL mod helps reduce the expedition time of merchants, and it also converts the grind in favour of Piastre farming. Pirates may send out these merchant orders for limited items like silver ingots, gold ingots, and tumbaga ingots, albeit in exchange for an increased amount of Piastres.


    5) Better Harvest Tools by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods)

    Early game harvesting can be a boring chore due to the weak damage and range of axe and pickaxe tools. At times, it becomes important that you bring wood or plant fiber to build lamps and ladders.

    Better Harvest Tools by IceBoxStudio (nexusmods) helps negate this problem by increasing the damage and range of the two farming tools. This, combined with the other QOL mods listed above, can help improve your overall endgame experience in Windrose
