📋 About This Mod

Adds the changes to Sacred Weapon from Oath of Devotion Paladins from DnD 5R/PHB2024: you can choose to convert the damage type of your weapon to Radiant damage, no Action cost, and you can use Sacred Weapon on your Main Hand or Off Hand weapon.

Troubleshooting: if for any reason when you toggle the passive it doesn't change to the right damage type, try doing it again slowly, and if it still doesn't work, toggling it on and off very fast a few times should make it fix itself.

Some of my other mods

Cleric and Domains PHB2024: Implements Cleric and its Domain (subclasses) changes based on PHB2024 of DnD. Compatible with level 20 mods.

Visual Paladin Auras: Adds a magic ring of light to each Paladin Aura to visualize its range and to look cool. Each Aura has a different color, they can all be

STACKED and you can TOGGLE the visibility of each Aura independently. Supports: Aura of Protection, of Warding, of Devotion, of Hate, of Courage, of

Conquest, of Clarity and of Holy Aegis.

Smart Containers: Adds 6 new backpacks/containers that, similar to the Camp Supplies Sack, automatically add items of the correspondent type. Scrolls,

College of Dance - Bard Subclass PHB2024: Brings the College of Dance Bard Subclass introduced in the new DnD Player's Handbook 2024. The College of Dance practice a way of being in harmony with the whirling movements of the cosmos that flow through all creation, emphasizing agility, speed and grace.

Eldritch Knight Plus! - New Passives, Rebalancing and MORE!: my big mod of changes to Eldritch Knight to make it a more balanced, fun and specially viable class in the context of Baldur's Gate 3's game-balance. A lot of changes, chief among them a rebalanced spell progression and new passives. Compatible with this mod and Argelia's OneDnD Fighter 2024 mod.

OneDnD - Eldritch Knight - War Magic and Improved War Magic: my OneDnD War Magic and Improved War Magic mod. Built on top of Argelia's OneDnD Fighter mod (that implements War Magic of OneDnD), this mod applies many bugfixes and upgrades to Argelia's War Magic implementation and additionally adds a new implementation to also include Improved War Magic (learned at lvl 1
