📋 About This Mod

I was smashing helpless petrified drow for the free xp on my 37th playthrough, when it occurred to me, what if the observer was actually able to unpetrify all these drow so I could just fight them instead? Enter this mod.

Just adds an aoe to the unpetrify effect that will hit all the drow instead of only one. Depending how you handle the fight, it doesn't become that much harder, especially if the beholder only has vanilla HP (I recommend healthy bosses for adding more boss HP) remember, all the drow are charmed by the observer, so once it goes down they will stop fighting.

After the observer is down, you'll likely have another fight on your hands. Which is good, if you enjoy combat over smashing rocks.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 143 endorsements and over 64k downloads, so it's clearly filling a need
  • Directly addresses a specific gameplay bug, making encounters more consistent
  • Lightweight and focused—no bloat, just the fix you want

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in October 2023, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches
  • Only affects the beholder's unpetrified spell—if you're looking for broader gameplay tweaks, this isn't it
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who are tired of the beholder's unpetrified spell only hitting one drow when it should hit all of them. If you're a completionist or a purist who wants spells to work as described, this is a must-have. Skip if you want more substantial gameplay changes—this is a single-target fix.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this is a simple file drop, just place the mod files into your game's mod folder or use your mod manager's install feature.
  • Check your game version against the mod's last update (October 2023) to ensure compatibility—if you're on a newer patch, test it early.
  • If you're using other mods that alter beholder behavior, load this one after them to ensure the fix takes priority.
