📋 About This Mod
This adds the 18th level feature, Umbral Form, to Larian's Shadow Sorcerer.
Umbral Form
At 18th level, you can spend 6 Sorcery Points as a Bonus Action to transform yourself into a shadowy form.
In this form, you have Resistance to all damage except Force and Radiant.
You remain in this form for 10 turns. It ends early if you are Incapacitated, if you die, or if you dismiss it as a Bonus Action.
There is a toggle in your passives to dismiss this form.
You must have a level 20 mod installed for this to work. I recommend Expansion, or you can also use Unlock Level Curve.
Optionally, you can use the level 12 version instead. Use only one file.
Adds the level 18 Umbral Form feature from Larian's Shadow Sorcerer to Baldur's Gate 3, with an optional level 12 variant. A niche class enhancement for Shadow Sorcerer players, 44 endorsements and 12,428 downloads, last updated April 2025.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fills a gap for Shadow Sorcerer players wanting the full class fantasy.
- Optional level 12 file gives flexibility for different campaign pacing.
- Decent download count (12,428) shows interest despite niche appeal.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (44) relative to downloads—may have issues or lack polish.
- Only adds one feature; no other changes or enhancements.
- Last updated April 2025—check compatibility with current game patches.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who love the Shadow Sorcerer and want to experience its capstone ability earlier or at the intended level. Skip if you're not playing a Shadow Sorcerer or want broader class overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using mod manager, drop the file into your mods folder and activate it in your load order.
- Choose the level 12 file if you want to use Umbral Form before reaching level 18.
- Make sure your game is up to date, as mods can break with patches.
