📋 About This Mod
Turns Longstrider into an Area of Effect spell. Complete with upcasting up to spell slot level 9 (maximum) with each level increasing the area of effect, compatible with level 20 mods. Should work with Patch 7 too.
Starts 5 meters of AoE radius and increases by 1 meter for each spell level of upcasting. Ritual casting continues to not expend a spell slot as expected.
Made for Patch 8 with the official modding toolkit and compatibilty with other mods in mind.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Turns a single-target buff into a party-wide convenience—no more casting Longstrider on each character individually.
- Upcasting scaling means the spell stays useful even at higher levels, especially with level 20 mods.
- Patch 8 ready, so it's up to date with the latest game version (69 endorsements).
⚠️ Cons
- Small mod with limited community traction (69 endorsements) — might not get frequent updates.
- Only affects Longstrider; if you're looking for broader spell overhauls, this is a niche tweak.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who hate casting Longstrider on every party member and want a quality-of-life improvement. Also great for those using level 20 mods who want the spell to scale better. Skip if you prefer vanilla spell balance or don't use Longstrider often.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple mod, just drop the .pak file into your Mods folder (typically %LocalAppData%/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/Mods).
- If you're using a mod manager like BG3MM, import the mod and make sure it's active before launching the game.
- Test the spell on a save before a big fight to see how the AoE radius feels at different spell slot levels.
