Gilded Steel is a Vintage Story mod by lysgonul and Irakonul. Gilded Steel adds silver- and gold-decorated steel tools, plus a longsword with steel and gilded variants for a more fitting late-game arsenal.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod suits players who want steel-age equipment to look as prestigious as it performs, with extra visual variety for tools and a new sword option.
What Gilded Steel adds
The mod expands the top tier of equipment with silver- and gold-gilded steel pickaxes and axes. Their decorative metalwork gives these tools a more finished appearance than a plain steel head attached to a handle.
A new longsword can be forged from steel and completed with a handle, or upgraded visually with a silver or gold plate. The gilded versions follow the same crafting idea as the decorated falx, combining practical steel with precious-metal detailing.
