I'm already seeing mods pop up that:

- extend leveling to 20..
- add in extra DnD spells,
- white wash / bleach all characters.
- Disable all romances (Or just gay ones) @rusty_shackleford

When a mod adds appearance / race changing to the respec window I'll probably day one download it. :Inspector:
Links to whitewash and no homo mods please
I posted them in the BG3 General Mods thread.

I really don't like the level limit..
They clearly ran out of time.
I'm probably half-wayish through the game and nearing level cap.


It seems 100% possible to mod in extra class levels and add spells though. I think in a year we will have complete overhaulled classes / sub classes and max level.

If people add extra difficult hidden bosses too. That would be pretty awesome. :eyebrows:

There's no reason given for why she isn't affected by Timeless Body, however. She should be quite young.
I was wrong. A very nice catch by Larian.

Are the BG novels Canon?
Cause Jaheira and Bhaalspawn **** like jack rabbits after Khalid bites it. :read:


Maybe that's what Larian is hinting at when Jaheira constantly complains about gossip & rumors about her..

Why are you surprised that a shithole, which everyone constantly refers to as such, is also multicultural?

If I were a savescummer I'd kill myself due to how long the loading times get in act 3.
It's not that big of a deal because you only encounter them when loading the act itself, but if you reload the game a lot that's gotta sting.

Lmao this is doubly funny considering the game is made by Belgians and Belgium has one of the worst track records regarding treatment of immigrants on the tier of Sweden. Yet anudda indulgence paid by the white man for his sins. They should be honest about their heritage and include a quest where you cut off the hands of the refugees and put them all in banlieus.

I find it hard to justify any melee except fighter when at max level because they're the only one that gets three attacks.
Ranger just sucks, you can't even use your pet because it scares people and the third act is entirely urban.
Barbarian is meh
Paladin is OK, has some stuff to make up for the lack of a third attack.

Belgians never cut off anyone's hands and it kinda pisses me off that the british cynically helped spread that blood libel.

The Belgians never personally cut off hands but that's not what I was getting at.

What about a paladin triggering smite? With 3-4 Warlock levels for extra spell slots that come back on short rest and turn strength into a dump stat? Or someone with 3 levels of thief to grant a second bonus action (aka attack) each turn? With a pair of hand crossbows that's 4 ranged attacks.

Action surge is great, but I like the self buff spells for skill checks and dialog.

I thought it was Jaheira because she was saying people claim she bangs gods or whatever. Wasn't she the canon romance in the novel?
