This mod is a godsend for people who really only want to enjoy the story and breeze through the combat. On my first run I wanted to enjoy the story first and maybe later I can be bothered to dive into the complexity of the combat rules, but without a mod like this even full explorer mode gets tedious on combats like holding the portal for Halsin.
It's not that the combat is bad in BG3, but there are just way too many opponents and combat is often very longwinded. In Dragon Age or the original Baldur's Gate combat was way shorter and not taking up hours of gameplay IMO.
That's why I love this mod, thanks for making it available for us carebears and storylovers :)
I am using vortex, the mod edits the playerbonusstory passive, it can't in any shape or form affect talk or interact its literally impossible theres no code for it
Hi, this mod sounds great, but there are no instructions on how to install it. Is there a special folder where you put it or do you need another tool for it (didn't say anything about requiring priors ...)
edit: found the mod folder after some googling but sadly the mod has 0 effect.
Installed BG3MM, imported the files that way and it does nothing at all. It's the only mod I tried. I guess I'm just unlucky or the BG3 Mod manager explanation is missing something vital
edit: I got it to work but I got the same problem as Zerhathos that I can't interact with doors and I think that is why Kethric doesn't lose his invincibility after I free Aylin, so sad as it makes the combat really pleasant but if I can't progress :(
I don't use bg3mm because I hate it, its a simple mod that modifies one passive file, if you're not set to explorer difficulty it won't work, if anything else modifies explorer difficulty that won't work.
Would it be possible for a Combat only version? Movement, Health, Damage, and such? Sometimes I feel it's a bit much with dice rolls having such a big buff with advantage, proficiency and such.
Thank you very much for making this mod, I'm not the best at games I usually play for narrative reasons and bg3 has a great story with amazing characters so now I get to experience that without all the stress :D
Hi! I'm going to use the mod soon, but I wanted to know if they influence dice rolls? I want to have a story mode but I like not buffing the dice rolls since I like unexpected outcomes!
Current versions don’t influence it besides giving you proficiency in all abilities like investigation and animal handling etc. and game provides roll bonuses to stuff you’re proficient in
EDIT: Got the mod working! Now, the only issue I'm having is that I keep getting soft-locked when performing dialogue rolls? Any idea why or how to amend this?
This used to work, but now it does not. I get no added bonuses on dice rolls anymore. What gives? I have not changed any prior mods, The only thing different that has been modified is game updates. I even change the difficulty in game to see if that fixes it but it does not. From my understanding I have nothing that conflicts.
This is by far my favorite mod for BG3 and I hope this gets solved.
TLDR: no more advantage +20 in Dice Rolls. Only file changes is game updates. Mods are not conflicting.
I’m latest update and it works for me, I can’t tell you what you’ve done wrong but the mod itself works it’s just not being loaded and I don’t have access to your pc so I can’t tell you why not
I can't see where I went wrong either. I install through Vortex and I have never had any issue since using this for a few months. Any chance on telling me how to install the mod manually?
So I just reinstalled 1.1, the previous version and it worked perfectly again. IDK why 1.2 is not working. Is there anything I can show you that could explain why that was?
Install 1.2, make sure it’s in load order and exported, ticked no lock icon then show me the investigate roll window at the tadpole pool thing right as you spawn, do that as a Barbarian
Added proficiensies in all skills(perception, history, arcana etc.)
Removed +20 in all abilities
Removed +20 Spell Save DC
Removed +20 Roll bonus as with proficiencies the extra is generally pretty good but keeping it rng
Hmm, so it seems that in 1.2 you removed the +20 Roll Bonus. In the Imgur image it showcases the changelog for 1.2 that says it and removing the +20 in abilities. I know that it also stated that you were keeping it for now because of added proficiencies, but on my end, and even on other people, it was maybe completely removed? I suggest keeping +20 in Abilities and Roll Dice in the full version, and maybe removing it on the Lesser one or decreasing those amounts?
I mean if you prefer those you can remain on 1.1 theres no harm in that, but getting 50 rolls on a 10 difficulty got kinda old fast for me and since crit success is bugged on larians side I couldn't use that but I kept 1.1 available to keep the choice for me I don't really lose rolls unless its like a 32 difficulty which feels like larian wants you to lose unless you're the luckiest person alive or of course just reloading until crit success anyhow, its hard to get a balance
I understand what you're saying, but it definitely makes the mod an actual Story Mode since you won't have to worry about Dice Rolls. Like I said before, you could leave that in the main mod, and maybe remove it or decrease value in the Lesser one, OR make a new Mod that has it, like a Greater Mod. That is just my opinion.
I'll definitely stick to 1.1 for now. Again thank you for the mod. It is my favorite and it enhances the story experience. At least I know now why I was not getting +20 Roll bonus.

Does it only work with a new game?

The bonus is my favorite part of the mod!
