📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Fresh take on martial combat for BG3, perfect for players tired of standard fighters and barbarians.
  • Based on a well-known homebrew, so it's got a solid foundation and community pedigree.
  • Decent download count (28,926) shows real interest, even if endorsements are modest.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 30 endorsements—could be a niche pick or still flying under the radar.
  • Last updated June 2026—check if it's compatible with the latest game patches.
🎯 Is This For You?
For BG3 players who want a punch-first, ask-questions-never class that's all about grit and swagger. If you're into homebrew content and want a martial alternative to magic-heavy builds, this is your jam. Skip if you prefer polished, fully-featured class mods with lots of documentation.
