📋 About This Mod


OneDnD - Monk Weapon Proficiencies

DESIGN NOTES

Martial Arts sees the return of Monk Weapons, and the Martial Arts die applies to both Unarmed Strikes and Monk Weapons.

PROFICIENCIES

Saving Throws: Strength, Dexterity

Skills (Choose 2): Acrobatics, Athletics, History, Insight, Religion, Stealth

Weapons: Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons that have the Light property

LEVEL 1: MARTIAL ARTS

Your practice of martial arts gives you mastery of combat styles that use your Unarmed Strike and Monk Weapons, which are the following:

  • []Simple Melee Weapons

    []Martial Weapons that have the Light property

    This is an example mod designed to work alongside the Compatibility Framework. It is designed to showcase the simplicity of using various functions.

    This mod uses the Compatibility Framework to add to the Monk starting weapon proficiencies.


    This mod is not required if using OneDnD Monk - Martial Arts.


    BG3 Community Library / Compatibility Framework

    Baldur's Gate 3 Community Library exists to provide a common collection of Spells, Scripts, Items, Statuses, Passives, and other useful material that will assist modders in creating new content.

    The Compatibility Framework provides an API for other mods to use improve compatibility. Initially designed for Subclass Compatibility, the Framework has API endpoints that Script-Extender Enabled mods can hook into to insert values into Progressions and Spell/Skill/PassiveLists at Runtime. What this means is that a mod author can inject their mod's data into existing Progressions or Lists without overwriting data, allowing for total compatibility.


    Installation

    This mod works with Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Manager, and possibly Vortex and Manual Installations. BG3 Mod Managers is by far the simplest method, and as such is recommended one.

    BG3 Mod Manager

    • []Download the latest release, and unzip the .pak file.

      []Open BG3 Mod Manager, click File->Import Mod.

      []Select the .pak.

      []Once imported, click refresh

      []Move the mod to above the CompatibilityFramework.

      []Hit "Save Load Order to File."

      Recommended Mod Management Tools

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Tightly scoped — does exactly what it says without bloating the class.
  • Community-backed (56 endorsements) and part of the BG3 Community Library Team's catalog.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires the Compatibility Framework — an extra dependency you'll need to track.
  • Only adds three weapon types — if you wanted full martial weapon access, this isn't it.
  • Last updated in December 2023 — may not be compatible with the latest BG3 patches.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want to play a Monk with more weapon options, especially those following the OneDnD ruleset. If you're a purist who wants the classic Monk experience, skip this — it's a focused tweak, not a rework.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you install the Compatibility Framework first, or the mod won't work.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or BG3 Mod Manager to handle load order — this mod needs to load after the framework.
  • If you're using other monk mods, check their descriptions for conflicts — this one only touches proficiencies.
