# Overgeared x Epic Knights *A compatibility mod bridging Epic Knights and Overgeared* > **Notice:** No further addons will be integrated from this point on. If anything, only maintenance updates and fixes will follow. ## What does it do? Out of the box, everything in Epic Knights is crafted through vanilla crafting tables, which clashes with Overgeared's forging system. This mod fixes that. All vanilla Epic Knights crafting recipes are **removed** and replaced with proper Overgeared recipes using **forging**, **casting**, and **assembly**.

**Blueprints** are also included for Shields and Weapons. ### New Items To achieve this, the mod adds new intermediate **blade and component items**. These work exactly like Overgeared's own components: you cast or forge the blade first, then assemble the final weapon. This keeps the crafting process consistent with how Overgeared handles its own gear.
