✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community reception with 78 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads.
- Addresses the Champion's weak late-game by boosting crit damage and chance.
- Blends official 2024 PHB ideas with custom tweaks for a fresh take.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in August 2024 — may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- Only affects the Champion Fighter, so it's useless if you don't play that subclass.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who main the Champion Fighter and feel it underperforms compared to other subclasses. If you want a more crit-focused build without overhauling the entire class, this mod is for you. Skip if you don't play Fighter or prefer more comprehensive class reworks.
💡 Beginner Tips

- If you're using other class overhaul mods, check load order to avoid conflicts — put this one after other class mods.
- Test the mod on a new Champion build to see the crit changes in action before committing to a long playthrough.
