📋 About This Mod

Update 10/13/24

Finally has its custom VFX and should work with patch seven but probably not anything before that. DO NOT update on a current save as it has a different UID as I had to rebuild it. No longer has the crit bug ethier.

Description:

Add's Abbalars Bardic Blades to the world of BG3.

Special Thanks to Kittykat128 for the amazing screen shots they did for the mod! Please check out their Tumbler for more screens from them :) Tumbler - Swordsbardkat

Features:

Both blades must be equipped for their effects to work, also upon a weapon critical strike during your next turn your Charisma modifier will be added to your weapon damage.

Grandiose Performance:

Starting at level 5, at the start of each turn, the magic of the blades will determine if the magical play is a Comedy or Tragedy

Comedic Play:

If the play is a Comedy gain the ability to cast Tasha's Hideous Laughter as a bonus action.

Tragic Play:

If the play is a Tragedy gain the ability to cast Vicious Mockery as a bonus action.

Hero's Journey

This weapon grows with its wielder, gaining +1 enchant at levels 1,5 and 9, and deals an extra 1 Psychic damage at level 1, 1d4 at level 4, and 1d6 at 6+.

Summon the tutorial chest, I am open to better drop places for this weapon. It's a little tough to scale for balance and I am not sure where a good point in the game for it would be, I do normally strive to have weapons-usable throughout the entire experience, but this one is kinda a lot harder to do that with.
