📋 About This Mod
Is it possible to make Sacred Flame have 1D10 (over its 1D8), Attack Roll (Over Dex) and use Sunbeams amazing casting and visuals?, it be so awesome if Sacred Flame would shoot a glorious radiant beam of holy energy, would give that amazing feel good to cast feeling Eldritch Blast has. Would work amazing at lvl 8 when Cleric of the Light/Knowledge get Potent Spellcasting adding their Wisdom modifier to it.
With some time and dedication anything is possible! I have uploaded several different dice roll versions, and giving people the option of going with Action or Bonus Action (is only fair). While speaking of "fair" the NPC will only use the vanilla version of Sacred Flame.
Here are some quick information to get you started

[]This mod consists of many files in (currently) one bundle. Activate only one file at a time.
[
]You can switch between the files however you want. Everything is flexible. New game is not needed.[] If you start using the mod in an active game you need to respec to get access the Sacred Flame: Overcharged cantrip.
[] If you start a new game with mod active you can directly pick the Sacred Flame: Overcharged cantrip.
For players wanting a fair and balanced game I do recommend the 2d8 up to 4d10 Bonus Action versions, but if you play on Tactician with a added difficulty mod like Tactician Plus then you definitely should go higher to even stand a chance. I also recommend my other mod Cleric - Unofficial Class Patch as a supplement to this one. The 10d20 to 20d20 versions exist solely for role-play and are not recommended for mere mortals. :)
Here be dragons... Look at the picture below and tell me what class that is and what exactly is happening :)
Yes, Magic Initiate: Cleric is a feat in Baldur's Gate 3 that any class can take, and by doing that they get full access to the cantrips from Cleric - Unofficial Class Patch and Cleric - Sacred Flame Upgrade. :)
IMPORTANT
If you use plan to use this mod Cleric - Unofficial Class Patch together with Cleric - Sacred Flame Upgrade you MUST download the compatibility version from the Cleric - Unofficial Class Patch OPTIONAL FILES section.
