It is important that you install and use this mod before you go to Act 2.

Fantastic Multiverse

Some of the fascinating races introduced with this mod come from various Dungeons & Dragons settings. For example, you can choose races from Eberron. You can also choose races from Etharis, the dark world of Grim Hollow. Peoples from Eorzea, the world of Final Fantasy XIV, are also there.

The selectable races and racial subspecies include:

D&D

  • Hyur
  • Elezen
  • Roegadyn
  • Garlear

    • 5e spells

    What can the mod do? There are already numerous spells available in Baldur’s Gate 3. But there is a modification from modder DiZ91891 that integrates a variety of additional spells from the first to sixth level as well as a wide selection of magic tricks into your game.

    With this mod you can try out tons of new spells.

    Spells from seventh to ninth level that were previously removed from the list due to errors (as of September 23rd) will also be added again. This expansion gives you the opportunity to discover and use even more spells from the D&D universe creatively.

    Tav’s Hair Salon

    What can the mod do? This modification from Toarie is perfect for you if you want to give your characters more hairstyle options in the game.

    We have put together a small gallery for you here that shows a few hairstyles:

    Tav’s Hairsalon expands the game with an impressive range of brand new hairstyles, particularly aimed at the different races, including Elves, Half-Elves, Drow, Tieflings and Humans.

    Party Limit Begone

    What can the mod do? With this modification of Sildur you have the opportunity to add all companions to your group at the same time, which means you no longer have to leave anyone behind in the camp. This expands the total group limit to 16 members and also allows you to start a multiplayer run with up to 8 players.

    However, it is extremely likely that this mod will disrupt the game’s balance because the game is not designed for that many players. Still, if you want to play with a larger group of friends, this modification proves to be a good choice.

    Artificer

    What can the mod do? With this mod from Various you unlock another class from the D&D universe, namely the Artificer. The class can fuse magic and technology to create, enhance, and use items. The class is particularly versatile as it can perform both in combat and in supporting your party.

    The Artificer can be seen as a magical craftsman.

    These are the Artificer subclasses, each offering a different playstyle and abilities:

  • Alchemist: This special subclass specializes in the art of potions and elixirs. You can create healing potions and support yourself and your allies.
  • Armorer: As an Armorer, you are a caster who can change your play style with powerful magical armor. You can switch between two modes, Guardian Mode (defense) and Infiltration Mode (stealth and ranged combat).
  • Artilleryman: This subclass masters the art of long-range combat. This gives you the ability to summon and use magical turrets to deal damage from a distance. These guns can produce various effects and offer a wide range of tactical possibilities.
  • Battle Smith: As a Battle Smith, you create a magical-mechanical companion who will assist you in battle. With each level increase, your companion also becomes stronger.

    • NPCs Don’t Run From Summons and Druid Forms

    What can the mod do? Do you also know that feeling when you walk through a village or town as a druid in animal form and cause the residents to panic or your undead forces the residents to flee? Then this modification of pwyb could be the solution for you. With this mod, NPCs no longer run away from summons and druid forms.

    ImprovedUI – Improved user interface

    What can the mod do? Djmr’s modification aims to make the game’s interface clearer and support other mods. For example, the game does not display annoying story error messages from installed mods and adds some small improvements to character creation.

    The mod also has optional files that can be downloaded. ImprovedUI Assets is worth it because this mod adds images of other mods, for example to be able to see the image of the Artificer. Otherwise you will see a black image.

    Customizer’s Compendium

    What can the mod do? Customizer’s Compendium by AlanaSP expands the possibilities of character customization. With this mod you can also access hairstyles that are normally only seen on NPCs in the game.

    For example, you can wear Isobel’s or Jaheira’s hairstyle.

    For those who are looking for even more variety in the character editor and are fans of their favorite NPCs at the same time, this modification could be worth it.

    Native Camera Tweaks – camera optimization

    What can the mod do? On Reddit, some players are expressing their dissatisfaction with the game’s current camera work. But for anyone who has difficulty using the camera, Ersh’s modification might be worth taking a look at.

    This mod basically allows for flexible and free camera movement, even making a third-person experience possible. In addition, the modification also supports controllers. The developer promises that this will make the control with the controller less rigid and inflexible.

    For those who prefer the controls from Dragon Age: Origins, there is even the option to combine this modification with another mod – WASD Character Movement. This allows you to easily control your character using the WASD keys for a more familiar control experience.

    These were my recommendations for the 10 best mods for Baldur’s Gate 3. There are certainly other very good mods, this is just a subjective opinion. The choice of mods depends on preferences, which can vary.
