A compact visual overhaul for Baldur's Gate 3 that redesigns the Paladins of Tyr in Act 1 and improves the Sword of Justice's appearance. With 125 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche cosmetic mod for players who want fresher looks for these specific NPCs and weapon.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Recent update (March 2026) means it's likely compatible with current game patches
- Solid community backing with 125 endorsements and over 25k downloads
- Targeted fix for a specific group of NPCs and a weapon that many players find visually lacking
⚠️ Cons
- Very niche scope—only affects the Paladins of Tyr and the Sword of Justice, so if you're not interested in those, this mod does nothing for you
- No mention of compatibility with other visual overhauls, so you might get conflicts if you use multiple NPC mods
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want a fresh look for the Paladins of Tyr and the Sword of Justice without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you're looking for broader visual changes or if you don't care about these specific characters.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a cosmetic mod, you can install it with a mod manager like Vortex or manually drop the files into your Mods folder—just make sure to follow the game's mod installation guide.
- If you're using other visual mods for NPCs, check load order to ensure this one takes precedence for the Paladins of Tyr.
- The Sword of Justice is a unique weapon, so this mod only affects that specific item—don't expect changes to other greatswords.
