📋 About This Mod
Attack of Opportunity bug fixes, quality of life adjustments and balance tweaks.
Overhauls Baldur's Gate 3 Opportunity Attacks with bug fixes and new options, including off-hand attacks, ranged, unarmed, shove, and grapple variants, plus a toggleable critical miss retaliation. It also fixes War Caster and Sentinel feats to align with 5e rules. For players wanting deeper reaction control. Last updated August 2026.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Updated August 2026, meaning recent fixes are included.
- Spiritual successor to Critical Miss Has Consequences, bringing familiar mechanics with native interrupt improvements.
- 533 downloads and 19 endorsements — a modest but engaged user base.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires MCM (and thus Script Extender) for the Critical Miss toggle, adding setup steps.
- Only 19 endorsements, so fewer community reports if you hit conflicts.
- Sentinel changes make you interrupt all attackers, which can drastically slow combat with extra prompts.
For BG3 tacticians who want more granular control over Opportunity Attacks and enjoy 5e-accurate reaction rules. Also for Sentinel and War Caster users tired of buggy or restrictive interrupts. Skip if you want simple tweaks or are new to modding — this adds MCM dependency and many reaction sub-options.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use BG3 Mod Manager to install and place this mod after any other mods that alter Opportunity Attacks or feats.
- After loading a save, open MCM to toggle the Critical Miss AoO option if you don't want extra reaction prompts.
- If you want the Grapple variant, install Dr. Kekyll's Grappling Framework first so the new reaction shows up.
