📋 About This Mod
WAY OF THE BREWMASTER HAS COME TO BALDUR'S GATE 3!
Initially, I didn't plan on working on Iriazi's adaptation of the Brewmaster since Drunken Master was already introduced in patch 8, but I figured that I might as well do all three if I already wanted to make two of them. Although building on the same drunken fighting technique as Drunken Master, this one is tankier and is able to absorb and avoid blows that a regular Monk wouldn't be able to. The ability to brew your own concoctions to enhance your combat capabilities tops off the brewmaster fantasy. Now you can fill most of your party with Monks of different roles to cover all bases!
SUBCLASS FEATURES
Starting when you choose this tradition at the 3rd level, you are Immune to the negative effects of being drunk. When you drink your Brewmaster concoctions gained at 6th level, you regain 1 Ki Point.NOTES
Some items in the game require you to be drunk and are pretty thematic for the Brewmaster (along with Drunken Master), so I added a slightly modified version of the Drunken Master's Cheeky Tipple to make these items (and the RP opportunities) viable for the Brewmaster as well. Retain
