With the full release of Baldur's Gate 3 came Larian Studio's version of the War Caster feat, which left much to be desired when compared to the 5e feat. I wanted to make a version of War Caster that was more true to the original 5e feat.
War Caster 5e lets you cast a single target spell at a creature, rather than making an opportunity attack. This mod is made to work with core spells in the game as well as spells added by the mod "5e Spells". The list below will be edited as the mod is updated.
CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED
Cantrips Booming Blade Green-Flame Blade Chill Touch Frostbite Gust Acid Splash Lightning Lure Mind Sliver Fire Bolt Poison Spray Primal Savagery Sacred Flame Sapping Sting Thorn Whip Toll The Dead True Strike Vicious Mockery Eldritch Blast Shocking Grasp
1st Level Command Inflict Wounds
2nd Level Hold Person
War Caster 5e works as a standalone mod for the core game. This mod is compatible with 5e Spells by DiZ and will be updated to include spells from that mod. The mod does require BG3SE by Norbyte, you can download this via his github or through BG3 Mod Manager.
