📋 About This Mod

Please follow these steps.

1. Summon the tutorial chest

2. Locate the Ring of Human Forge and equip it

3. Equipping the ring will unlock several spells as outlined below.

4. Equip the weapon set that you'd like to modify. You can do this quickly by pressing the F key. The buffs work for Melee and Ranged, so you need to make sure that you have the correct weapon set equipped before using.

5. Choose either the Main Hand or Offhand Buff spell and make your modifications. Once modified, the changes can only be reverted by using the reversion spell.

Main Hand Buffs

Damage Die: 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 1d12, 2d6, Revert Changes

Enhancement to Attack and Damage Rolls: +1, +2, +3, Revert Changes

Modifier for Attack and Damage Rolls: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Charisma, Wisdom, Revert Changes

Additional 1d4 Damage: Cold, Fire, Lightning, Thunder, Acid, Poison, Radiant, Necrotic, Force, Psychic, Revert Changes

This buff doesn't stack, so you can only have one additional 1d4 damage buff active at a time.

Additional 1d6 Damage: Cold, Fire, Lightning, Thunder, Acid, Poison, Radiant, Necrotic, Force, Psychic, Revert Changes

This buff doesn't stack, so you can only have one additional 1d6 damage buff active at a time.

Additional 1d8 Damage: Cold, Fire, Lightning, Thunder, Acid, Poison, Radiant, Necrotic, Force, Psychic, Revert Changes

This buff doesn't stack, so you can only have one additional 1d8 damage buff active at a time.

Thrown and Returning Properties: Add the Thrown property to the equipped weapon. Additionally, when you throw the weapon, it will automatically return to you. There's also an option to revert these changes.

Light Property: https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Light_(weapon_property)

Finesse Property: https://baldursgate3.wiki.fextralife.com/Finesse

Reach Property: Please note that this doesn't extend the weapon's reach, but it does allow it to work with the Polearm Master Feat.

Off Hand Buffs

Identical to Main Hand except for Damage Die because I didn't include a 2d6. If you really want 2d6, please leave a comment, and I'll add it. I also didn't add the thrown and returning property buff to offhand because if a weapon has the returning property, it will automatically be re-equipped in your main hand after you throw it.

Weapon Actions

***Unlike the other buffs, the weapon actions don't apply directly to the weapon, and they can't be unlearned. Once you cast the spell to learn the weapon action, you can use it with any weapon that you equip. The spells are in a different container than the othe
