Baldur’s Gate 3is a role-playing gamedeveloped by Larian Studios, set in theDungeons and Dragons universe. The game features four difficulty settings: Explorer, Balanced, Tactician, and Honour Mode. Explorer mode focuses more on the story while offering easier combat. Balanced mode provides a standard challenge. Tactician mode delivers a tougher experience with stronger enemies and environmental hazards, and Honour Mode adds a hardcore challenge with permadeath and limited saves. However, a newBaldur’s Gate 3mod promises to add yet another layer of difficulty to the game.
Created byNexus Mods user Mithras666, this new mod tweaks certain aspects of the game to add anotherdifficulty level toBaldur’s Gate 3. The mod’s key changes include a substantial improvement to enemy stats and spells. NPCs now have a better grasp of their resistances, immunities, and hit chances against player Armor Class. Additionally, spellcasting tactics for enemies have become more strategic, making them more challenging to combat. With this mod, players will have to be careful, as regeneration mechanics have been introduced, allowing enemies to heal during battles.
The Baldur’s Gate 3 New Combat Condition Added in the Mod
Moreover, the AI has been made significantly smarter. NPCs can now distinguish between summoners and their summons, targeting summoners more frequently. The AI has also become more brutal, often finishing off downed characters and prioritizing low HP spellcasters and rangers. With Mithras666’s mod, positioning becomes crucial for both players and enemies, as NPCs now take advantage of high ground and strategic positioning. The mod introduces “enraged,” a newBaldur’s Gate 3combat conditionthat grants enemies temporary hit points equal to 15% of their max health. Enraged enemies are also 33% bigger in size and gain resistance to all damage types, making them even tougher to defeat.
Baldur’s Gate 3combat tacticshave also seen major improvements in the mod. For instance, if rangers are swarmed by enemies, they now pull back and start using throwables from a distance. Melee characters now prefer close combat and are less likely to fall back when they are cornered. Enemies now use control spells if the player party is clustered. Additionally, bosses have been improved across the board, making them smarter and more brutal in assessing player stats and abilities.
To install the mod, players need to download it, add the file to their mod manager, and load their saved game. They should press “Insert” in-game to open the Mod Configuration Menu and activate the mod. Mithras666’s mod is sure to provide a fresh challenge for veteran players looking for an even more difficult experience in theBaldur’s Gate 3world.
