• Mod Author: pixellbytes

Before the release of the Toolkit Data in Baldur’s Gate 3, some tools allowed players to bypass the default limit of four active characters in a party. However, these mods often had compatibility bugs due to the limitations of the available tools at the time. With the Adjustable Party Limit mod, introduced in Patch 7, players can now have up to 16 characters in their party without those previous issues.

For those who want to explore Baldur’s Gate 3 with a large group of companions, this is the perfect mod to enhance the experience. It offers a seamless way to adjust the number of companions, making it easier to customize the gameplay without running into bugs or glitches that older mods often caused.

9 ProgressiveWeapons

Weapons That Scale With The Player

• Mod Author: midnight7ds

Throughout the three acts of Baldur’s Gate 3, the weapons that players acquire tend to become obsolete as they progress, often replaced by stronger gear. However, thanks to Toolkit Data introduced in Patch 7, modders are working to change this dynamic. The ProgressiveWeapons mod allows weapons to evolve along with the character, giving them longer-lasting value and reducing the need for constant upgrades.

The mod's creator also plans to add more unique weapons, offering interesting and immersive options for players. Instead of constantly discarding weapons, players will now have the opportunity to keep their favorite gear and watch it improve as they continue their journey in Baldur’s Gate 3.

8 Kuo-Toa Playable Race

One Of Baldur’s Gate 3's Strangest Races

• Mod Author: gonzalo-marcos

Even with multiple updates from Larian Studios, Baldur’s Gate 3 hasn't introduced much new content in terms of races or classes. Thanks to Patch 7 and Toolkit Data, however, players can now create more complex content themselves. The Kuo-Toa Playable Race mod is a prime example of this, allowing players to explore the game as one of its most unusual races.

The Kuo-Toa are fish-like humanoids with violent tendencies and a devotion to a god they call BOOAL. This mod gives players the chance to embark on a unique adventure through the Sword Coast, complete with new spells and a deity for Cleric players to follow. For those seeking a bizarre yet fun playthrough, this Baldur’s Gate 3 mod is a must-try.

6 Pathfinder2ndEdition

An Ambitious Mod Conversion Of The Ruleset

• Mod Author: modiouser3r1o

Fans of tabletop RPGs will be familiar with Pathfinder, a popular rival to Dungeons & Dragons in the fantasy RPG genre. The Pathfinder2ndEdition mod for Baldur’s Gate 3 aims to implement Pathfinder 2e rules into the game, significantly altering combat and gameplay mechanics. This includes a new action economy system, as well as reworked attacks and spells to better fit the Pathfinder 2e framework.

The mod is recommended for new saves, as it may conflict with already started ones. Future updates promise even more depth, including the conversion of monster stats to align with Paizo's system. For those who prefer Pathfinder's rule set over Dungeons & Dragons, this mod offers a comprehensive overhaul of Baldur’s Gate 3.

5 Master Of All Four Elements - Rework

Rework To Enhance The Avatar Experience In Baldur’s Gate 3

• Mod Author: smalliceburg

While the Way of the Four Elements Monk subclass had a promising concept in Baldur’s Gate 3, it failed to fully deliver the Avatar-like experience players hoped for. The Master of All Four Elements mod, introduced with Patch 7, aims to rework this subclass, making the Monk's elemental abilities more impactful and fluid.

Players can now enjoy smoother transitions between elements, with abilities that feel more powerful and immersive. While some balance tweaks may still be needed, this Baldur’s Gate 3 mod offers a much more engaging experience for those who want to master all four elements.

4 Halfling Or Gnome Companions

A Fun Mod Created With Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit Data

• Mod Author: sydmeier

While Baldur’s Gate 3 offers a diverse cast of companions, the racial variety is somewhat lacking. Most companions are either human, elf, or tiefling. Thanks to the Toolkit Data introduced in Patch 7, some mods can transform other characters into Halfling or Gnome Companions, seeking to add more diversity by offering smaller-race versions of the game’s existing companions.

This addition allows players to experience the game with halfling or gnome versions of their favorite companions. It's perfect for those seeking more variety featuring quirky characters like Short O'Heart or Lil'zel.

3 Inspirations Uncapped

Accumulate Unlimited Inspiration Points

• Mod Author: realitythreek

Inspiration is a key mechanic in Baldur’s Gate 3, allowing players to reroll important dice rolls during critical moments. However, the game caps the number of Inspiration Points a player can hold at once, which may be restrictive for those who prefer to save their Inspiration for later. The Inspirations Uncapped mod removes this limitation, allowing players to accumulate as many Inspiration Points as they like.

This simple yet effective mod is perfect for players who want to explore every interaction and decision in the game without worrying about missing out on Inspiration rewards. It’s easy to install and is available via the Mod Manager.

2 Witch Class

A Versatile Class For Baldur’s Gate 3

• Mod Author: modiousercazw

The Witch Class mod brings a new spellcasting class to Baldur’s Gate 3, featuring three distinct subclasses. Players can modify spells or cast exclusive Witch spells, adding an extra layer of strategy and depth to the gameplay.

As players progress through the game, they’ll unlock new spells and abilities, allowing for different approaches to combat. This mod also introduces additional spells in line with the witch theme, making the Witch Class mod a standout addition to Baldur’s Gate 3.

1 Normal Half Illithid

Use Illithid Powers Without Changing Appearance

• Mod Author: clowee

From the beginning of Baldur’s Gate 3, players can unlock powerful abilities through the Tadpole, granting new powers as the story progresses. However, accepting the Half Illithid transformation results in significant changes to the character's appearance. For players who want the powers without the visual transformation, the Normal Half Illithid mod is the perfect solution.

This mod retains all the benefits of the Half Illithid transformation without altering the character's appearance. It’s ideal for players who want to embrace the powers offered by The Emperor without compromising their character’s original appearance.
