📋 About This Mod
Description
A few people have asked about Shart's outfit in some of my videos, so here it is: new starting gear for Shadowheart, based on an unused Sharran character visual I came across in the game files. New armor, boots, and gloves.

Installation & Conflicts
-
[]Will conflict with any mods that edit EQ_Shadowheart or override her vanilla chain shirt visuals.[/]
[]This mod does not replace any of Shadowheart's character visuals (mainly because I was lazy, but also for compatibility with any mods that alter her appearance), so she'll still be wearing her vanilla armor in her CC intro and her nautiloid wakey wakey cutscene if you play as Shart. [/]
[]Can be installed mid-playthrough, though this will only replace her chain shirt. For the full set of starting gear, start a new game or use the console commands above.[/]
This compact cosmetic mod replaces Shadowheart's starting armor, gloves, and boots with new designs. It's for Baldur's Gate 3 players who want to customize her early-game look. With 56 endorsements and a recent update, it's a small but active addition.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and focused—does exactly what it says without bloat
- Recent update (June 2026) shows the author is still maintaining it
- Lightweight download (1,709 downloads) with a niche but dedicated following
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects starting gear—if you're past Act 1, you won't see it
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the look
- Small mod with 56 endorsements—might not be thoroughly tested across all game versions
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want to give Shadowheart a fresh look right from the start without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you're looking for major gear changes or if you're already deep into a playthrough.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a cosmetic gear mod, make sure you're not using other mods that alter Shadowheart's starting equipment—they might conflict.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
- Check the mod's page for any required DLC or game patches, though none are listed here.
